Donations of love: Friends and family spurred by Ballston Spa woman's memory to fight kidney disease
BALLSTON SPA — After a long fight with kidney disease, Kristen LaVoy died several years ago. But she is far from forgotten.
On May 8 at the Saratoga Spa State Park, a large number of friends and their families will gather for the 3rd annual KlaVoy 5K Run. With a goal of raising $5,000, all funds will go directly to the Center for Donation & Transplant — Donate Life. Organizers also plan the run as a way to raise awareness on the critical shortage of organs and tissue.
There are more than 100,000 people awaiting the life-saving gift of an organ transplant.
A friend remembers Kristen
Tonya Pellegrini Lawrence met LaVoy when they were students at Ballston Spa High School. At that time, LaVoy, of Ballston Spa, was active and healthy, but when she was 17, she began to experience symptoms that something was wrong.
"She had a lot of swelling in her legs and seemed to be retaining water," Pellegrini Lawrence said. "When she was 18, she finally got a diagnosis."
The news was devastating. LaVoy was diagnosed with "focal glomerulonephritis" an auto-immune disease that reduces the ability of the kidneys to maintain a balance of certain substances in bloodstream. This inability to act as effective filters results in toxins remaining in the bloodstream.
The best way to improve her health was for LaVoy to undergo dialysis, and although she needed the procedure as often as twice a day, LaVoy went on with her plans for college.
"She went to Plattsburgh, and did her own home dialysis in her dorm room," Pellegrini Lawrence said. "Everyone else was enjoying college life and spring break, but her activities were very limited since she had to stay near her dialysis machine. But she was so strong; she never let it get her down."
Twin sister a donor match Continued...
Kristen LaVoy had a twin sister, Kara, who was not only an identical twin, but was also a match as a kidney donor. Doctors decided the best course of action was to delay the donation from Kara to maintain as a last resort treatment.
Kristen LaVoy was on an organ waiting list, and was able to receive a transplant when she was 21.
"All we know was that the kidney came from someone in Utica," Pellegrini Lawrence said. "The doctors estimated she would have about two to four years of good health from the new kidney, but Kristen had eight good years."
As soon as she was stable after the transplant, the friends went camping, and Pellegrini Lawrence said she will never forget those times when Kristen LaVoy was free to do whatever she wanted to do.
"She felt amazing during those years, and she didn't need to cart around dialysis equipment," Pellegrini Lawrence said. "We hiked and roller-bladed. It was a complete transformation."
LaVoy also picked up her career in accounting and real estate, which she had studied in college.
LaVoy needed to take anti-rejection medications, but experienced few side effects.
Kara LaVoy married, and had a son, Sky. A few years later, Kara gave birth to a set of twin daughters. She named them Sage and Rayn, and gave both girls the middle name "Kristen." Kara LaVoy asked Pellegrini Lawrence to be godmother of the girls.
Rejecting the donated kidney
After eight years with the donated kidney, LaVoy's system began rejecting the organ, and she became ill again. She went back onto dialysis, this time done in a medical facility. Continued...
"It took three or four hours, and it was very tiring for her," Pellegrini Lawrence said. "Much of the time she would sleep, but I'd bring her lunch and we'd talk and hang out. Kristen was young and very determined, but yeah, it was very discouraging at times."
LaVoy was 27 when the donated kidney began to fail. The anti-rejection drugs caused changes in Kristen LaVoy's body, and her sister's kidney was no longer an exact match. Using her twin's kidney to regain her health was no longer possible.
The end of Kristen's life
Between the ages of 32 and 33, LaVoy experienced more and more medical conditions that weakened her body significantly. At one point, she lapsed into a coma for three weeks when her system became toxic.
"It was only afterward that they told us she'd had only a 10 percent chance of coming back," Pellegrini Lawrence said.
As LaVoy's health continued to diminish, her sister's son, Sky was born at their home in Florida. Kristen LaVoy was determined to meet her new nephew and flew to see him.
LaVoy died one month after her sister's son was born. She passed away in Florida, after Kara called an ambulance when she saw how weak her sister had become. Then, Kara called Pellegrini Lawrence.
"The night before she died Kara called me, and I told her Kristen would hang on until Kara told her she could go, and a few hours later, she went," Pellegrini Lawrence said.
The date was Sept. 1, 2004.
At her funeral, people that graduated with Kristen LaVoy showed up in such large numbers, the church was overflowing. Continued...
"It was so gratifying to see people I hadn't seen in years," Pellegrini Lawrence said.
Remembering Kristen
It took a couple of years for Pellegrini-Lawrence to work through her grief, and she began to form ideas about organizing a tribute for her friend.
"I like to run and be outdoors, so I got in touch with people she knew, and sent out an e-mail, and people forwarded it all over," Pellegrini Lawrence said. "Even her (college) suitemates called to sign up; they saw her last when they were 21."
The annual race is as much a gathering to support one another and remember Kristen LaVoy as it is a fundraiser.
"We all share stories and talk about the good times," Pellegrini Lawrence said. "The most important thing is to keep her memory alive."
Finding a place to donate the money raised was an easy decision.
"Kristen had good years from the donated kidney, so we want to help other people receive the same gift," Pellegrini Lawrence said.
May 8 is a significant day to hold the race.
"We're holding the race on her birthday," Pellegrini Lawrence. "She would have been 41 years old."
For information on participating in the 5K run May 8, contact Pellegrini Lawrence at firstname.lastname@example.com.

Gates — a Republican who served as Pentagon chief in both the Bush and Obama administrations — last week reiterated his warning that attacking Iran could be "catastrophic" and "make a nuclear-armed Iran inevitable."
When ABC News's Martha Raddatz asked Vice President Biden and Ryan about Gates' assertion, Ryan said it "undermines" American credibility:
RADDATZ: What about Bob Gates' statement. Let me read that again. "Could prove catastrophic, haunting us for generations."
BIDEN: He is right. It could prove catastrophic if we didn't do it precision –
RYAN: What it does is it undermines our credibility by backing up the point when we make it that all options are on the table. That's the point. The Ayatollahs see these kinds of statements and they think, "I'm going to get a nuclear weapon." When we see the kind of equivacation that took place because this administration wanted a pre-condition policy so when the Green Revolution started up they were silent for 9 days. When they see us putting desperate — when they see us putting daylight between ourselves and our allies in Israel, that gives them encouragement.
Watch the clip:
Ryan was repeating a Romney campaign talking point that warning about the consequences of war with Iran only encourages the Iranian regime to move forward with an alleged nuclear weapons program (the Romney team doesn't like discussing those consequences). Yet many experts and current and former U.S. and Israeli officials have echoed Gates' warnings that attacking Iran would give leaders there incentive to weaponize and it could spark a regional war.

Bartlett boys soccer looking for goals
by Steev Riccardo
WEBSTER – The Bartlett High School boys soccer team battled to a fierce 0-0 tie against a very good Auburn Rockets last Monday, September 24.
Sophomore goalie Jacob Murphy, who has played well all season for the rebuilding Indians, held the Rockets scoreless and played a stellar game in goal.
Later in the week the goal scoring drought continued for the Indians, as they were shutout by the David Prouty Panthers 3-0 in Spencer.
The 1-6-1 Indians will play at Northbridge on Thursday, October 4, and return home for a contest against Doherty on Friday, October 5. They will also travel to Quaboag for another Southern Worcester County League tilt on Tuesday, October 9.

Some people believe that that a form of yeast called candida albicans may cause autism. It may also exacerbate some behaviour and health problems in people with autism.
They believe that a yeast-free diet, alongside treatments to remove existing yeast concentrations in the body, can help resolve some of these problems.
We are currently reviewing the research evidence on the use of yeast-free diets as an intervention for people with autism.

As the emphasis on the accountable care organization (ACO) gathers momentum, radiologists have been a bit perplexed as to how to approach the model. The American College of Radiology created the Radiology Integrated Care Network (RICN) to illuminate the situation. The RICN encouraged radiologists to be proactive participants in ACOs in an opinion piece published in the May issue of the Journal of American College of Radiology.

8 slices country breadapprox. 3/4 pound sliced smoked hamDijon mustard to tasteapprox. 6 Tbs room temperature unsalted butter
for the sauce:
2 Tbs unsalted butter2 Tbs all-purpose flour1 1/4 cup milk1/2 cup grated cheddar cheese (see hints below)
steamed asparagus as needed (optional)
Assemble as many sandwiches as you like by spreading some Dijon mustard over both slices of country bread, topping that with 2-3 slices of smoked ham, pressing it together and spreading room temperature butter onto the outsides of the sandwich.
Next, to make enough cheddar cheese sauce for 4 sandwiches, grate 1/2 cup cheddar cheese and melt 2 Tbs unsalted butter in a heavy bottomed stainless steel pot, and then whisk in 2 Tbs all-purpose flour.
Cook that for a minute, whisk in 1 1/4 cups milk, and bring it up to a simmer.Just as it comes to a simmer, turn the heat down a little bit and whisk in the grated cheddar cheese, and then turn the heat off.
At this point you'll want to cook the sandwiches just like you would any grilled cheese sandwich and, if you're using the asparagus, add it to a saute pan with a little bit of water and cook that on high heat with a lid on top.
Once the asparagus is done, drain it really well and, once the sandwich is done you can slice it in half if you like and serve it over the top of some steamed asparagus on a plate and spoon the cheddar cheese sauce over the top of everything.
Although I used a generous 1/3 cup grated cheese in the video, using a generous 1/2 cup makes a more flavorful sauce.

Falcon alumna retires from hammer
November 13, 2012 · Updated 2:00 PM
Kimery Hern, the South Whidbey High School alumna who qualified for the United States Olympic trials, has retired from the hammer throw.
"I couldn't have done it without any of you," Hern wrote in a letter to her supporters. "You all have selflessly supported me financially and often times fueled my drive emotionally. Thank you, from my whole heart."
Hern began her career as a track and field thrower on South Whidbey. With the Falcons, Hern cruised in the javelin, discus and shot put before discovering the hammer throw late in her prep days. Georgia Tech offered her a scholarship for the hammer throw, where she competed for the Rambling Wreck for four years before graduating in 2009.
After graduating, Hern pursued the Olympic trials as a throwing assistant at the University of Washington under coach Reedus Thurmond. Club Northwest took Hern into its fold, where she received funding support and training in pursuit of the 2012 Olympics in London. As Hern trained and prepared for the Olympic qualifier in Oregon, she set her personal record of 65.10 meters (213 feet, 6 inches) at the Tucson Elite Classic.
Hern plans to enroll in a medical program with the goal of earning a medical doctorate.
"After so many years putting athletic prowess above education, it is a little scary to think I'm going back to school for approximately forever," Hern said.
"I am really excited about my future and I feel 100 percent confident I have made the right decision."

Parks calls it quits
7 Feb 2012
Scotland flyhalf Dan Parks has retired from international rugby with immediate effect.
Following last week's loss to England, the 33-year-old Parks has decided that he can put off his retirement no longer. He had originally intended to retire after the 2011 World Cup, but the prospect of facing England in one final Six Nations clash proved too tempting. In the end, it turned out to be a bad decision as England scored an important try after Charlie Hodgson charged down a Parks kick.
'I was thinking about it [retirement] but the first game of the Six Nations was against England, the auld enemy, Jacko [Ruardirh Jackson] was injured and being able to play against England was huge for me as there was a sense of unfinished business,' said Parks.
'On reflection after the game, after talking it over with my family, girlfriend and close friends, I've come to the decision that now is the right time to retire from the international game.'
With Parks unavailable for selection, Greig Laidlaw is likely to start at flyhalf in this week's clash with Wales. Coach Andy Robinson is also likely to use flyhalf Duncan Weir in the 22.
'There are some really talented guys coming through – Jacko, Greig and Duncan – and although I'm sad to be finishing my international career I have some fantastic memories of playing for Scotland and what that has meant to me,' said Parks.
'I've no regrets at what has been an amazing career for me. I've got my favourite moments for Scotland – uppermost being the 2007 World Cup.
'Other memorable moments have been the two wins against England at home [in 2006 and 2008], the win against South Africa here at Murrayfield [in November 2010], the two wins in Argentina in 2010 and one in 2008 and the Ireland game in 2010 which was a great occasion.'
Parks played 67 Tests for Scotland and amassed 266 points.

7 Feb 2012, 20:14 pmSorry Parks, but it's truly shameful that the Boks lost to this team.
7 Feb 2012, 22:15 pmParks was a very poor 10, how he won as many caps as he did is beyond me
8 Feb 2012, 00:29 am@Saffex-2: Fact of the matter is if you took Parks out of the last 15 test matches or so, there would have been next to no victories whatsoever. He has been made a scape goat for the loss to a very poor England team (we are not any better though). And id be more concerned as to why your Morne Steyn has amassed the caps he has! There is no difference between him and Parks, Parks at least has a tactical kicking game (sometimes it doesnt work too well) but Steyn has nothing barring good goal kicking. kaksioek you lost to Scotland because you had a prize clown for a manager and Steyn at fly half!
8 Feb 2012, 01:01 am@dquinn25-3: Sorry dude, but Morne Steyn – limited as he is – is far superior to Parks, who would probably struggle to get a Currie Cup game in SA.
8 Feb 2012, 12:11 pmThe best news I've heard in ages. Still don't know why he was ever selected. He would be hard pushed to get a number ten slot in a Super League "A" team.

Eastman Kodak lost its patent case against Apple (AAPL) and Research In Motion over digital image-preview technology, a U.S. trade agency said Friday in a decision that could hurt the company's efforts to get a high price selling its patents.
Kodak said it will appeal.
The U.S. International Trade Commission upheld a judge's findings that neither Apple nor RIM violated Kodak's rights in the patent. The commission said it agreed with the judge that the patent claim was invalid. Its reasons for the decision will be released once both sides have a chance to redact confidential information.
Kodak has been seeking a victory to force Apple and RIM to pay licensing fees and bolster the value of the patent portfolios Kodak intends to sell. Kodak said in a court filing that Apple alone owes more than $1 billion in royalties. The dispute has dragged on for about 30 months, almost twice as long as a typical ITC case.
The patent's validity "has been upheld in previous litigation at the ITC, and was affirmed by the U.S. Patent and Trade Office in the face of two separate challenges, so we are confident that its validity will ultimately be upheld," Chris Veronda, a spokesman for Kodak, said in a statement.
Kristin Huguet, a spokeswoman for Apple, said the company had no comment.
The patent in the case is in one of two portfolios that Kodak is selling, which may be its most valuable assets. One group includes patents for digital-capture technology and the other covers imaging systems and services.

Chocolate Brug, I have contacted Mark to see if he is still selling brugs, I used his old email address. I have not received a response. I dont' know where to go to buy brug cuttings. Where do you get yours? I would be interesed in buying some cuttings. I would appreciate it if you could email me their information. I have found a way to grow brugmansia ,by adding turface to the soil. I am afraid to buy from ebay, since I was stung by filthyrich 10, with everyone else that time. I think you grow the most beautiful brugs, keep up the good work. Barbra |
Thanks Barbra, You got mail. Cb |
I got mine from Sommergardens. Good plants, excellent service! They were selling on e-bay, both plants and seeds. |
Here is a link that might be useful: sommergardens
Cb. Please keep posting your Brug pics I enjoy seeing your gorgeous Brugs. Thanks for posting. |
I was just wondering what turface is? I found their product online but what is in it and how is it helpful in rooting? |
- Posted by printmaster DFW TX (My Page) on Thu, Feb 28, 13 at 13:16
Turface is used is an amendment to the soil to loosen it and make it drain better. I second Fred @ Sommergardens. Lonnie |
hey all. I see some plumie friends here. Anyways Im going to join the brug crowd this year. Never tried them before. Sommergardens sounds like just the site i have been looking for but it appears their online store is closed even though it says they will open Feb 15. Anyone know whats is the deal with that? Mike |

Borough avoid drop despite Basingstoke defeat
Eastbourne Borough suffered a 3-0 defeat at play-off chasing Basingstoke in their penultimate game of the season.
After last week's 2-0 victory against Hampton and Richmond, coupled with defeats for relegation rivals, Blue Square South safety was already virtually assured for Tommy Widdrington's side.
And despite today's defeat other results went Boro's way and guaranteed they avoid relegation.
Widdrington's men were determined however to get another three points on the board and despite the unflattering scoreline competed well for long periods.
They were caught out on 11 minutes when Sam-Yorke opened the scoring for the home side. They then conceded two quick goals on 58 and 59 minutes through Daley and McAuley respectively.
Boro' battled gamely but struggled to carve out clear cut chances. Substitute Ellis Remy came the closest to scoring but was unable to capitalise on two half-chances following his second half introduction.
Boro's last game of the season is against Salisbury next Saturday.
The 3-0 victory lifted Basingstoke into sixth place with Boro' dropping down two places to 17th.
Boro starting XI: Walker, Cole, Baker, Rowe, Crabb, Johnson, Smart, Anderson, Hamilton-Omole, Hart, Watson.

As I cross Cesar Chavez Avenue on my way to work each morning, I'm greeted by murals with the visionary labor organizer's portrait. When I reach the PAN office, he smiles down at me from a poster hanging prominently in the hall.
This week marks the 14th annual National Farmworker Awareness celebrations, and I've been contemplating the Chavez legacy. We know that as a parent as well as an activist, he shared our concerns about how pesticides harm children through the food they eat, the water they drink and the air they breathe.
In honor of National Farmworker Awareness Week, we are reposting this powerful story of young farmworkers in North Carolina. This guest blog was originally published in September, 2011.
Last week Toxic Free North Carolina released our latest Farm Worker Documentary Project film, Overworked & Under Spray. It's a short piece featuring six high school-aged farmworkers' stories about being sprayed with agricultural pesticides while tending crops in fields across the state.
Every year around this time, I blog about the invisible impacts of how we spend our Valentine's Day dollars, and why it matters. Our choices for chocolate and flowers can either support innovative farmers and safe, dignified livelihoods for farmworkers whose labor brings you such Valentine's goodies — or not. This year I'm broadening my call for food system justice to include not only the millions of workers who harvest our food, but also the millions who work in restaurants to serve it. Did you know that Valentine's Day is the highest grossing day in the restaurant industry? A perfect moment to show your support and raise your voice for farmworkers and restaurant workers alike.
This week's controversy surrounding a Stanford study claiming to have established that organic food is no more nutritious than non-organic illustrates the pitfalls of talking about food issues in a consumer frame. And people all around the country are saying so.
Food issues are never solely or even mainly about individual consumer choice — our food and farming system connects us with each other and is by most measures our most impactful daily interaction with the environment.
EPA made an important and long-awaited announcement Thursday when it banned future sales of the highly neurotoxic apple pesticide azinphos-methyl (AZM), also known as Guthion.
This is particularly good news for rural families, farmworkers and children headed back to school. Guthion residues are found on over 30% of U.S. apples.

Personally I dislike portable gaming, but it might be because I own a blackberry and I honestly don't mind waiting in lines or just staring at people and the world for short periods. I also just pack a book for those occasions (airports etc) where I'll know I'll need something to do. But 500 mil is still impressive."The most popular mobile game in history now has been downloaded more than 500,000,000 times, according to maker Rovio Mobile. Good thing the 300 million minutes of Angry Birds daily playing time around the world aren't being wasted or anything.

A post New Year's Eve complexion often looks a little sallowI know mine did the day after...and the day after that. I decided to put this new product that landed on my desk to good use: Bare Escentuals Buxom Divine Goddess Luminizer in Venus, $28, sephora.com.
Full disclosure, I'm usually not one to slather on a highlighter because I think it often looks too shimmery-slash-unrealistic looking. But this lightweight cream formula is super subtle and gives your face a dewy appearance. It instantly amped up my complexion and made me look well-rested and freshnot hungover.
Since I don't usually dabble with luminizer, the only place I chose to apply it was on my cheekbones and then I patted it up and around my orbital (aka eye) bone in a "C" formation. Swiping it on this way allows the light to hit your face and bounce off of your cheeks and eyes, immediately drawing attention to those areas. Bonus: You can use it on your body, too (who doesn't love gorgeous gams in a mini?!).
Like I said, if you need a skin pick me up, this is the easiest way to go (aside from getting some much-needed beauty sleep). But it's also clutch if you're looking to add a sexy sheen to your complexion before going out on the town with your girls or your guy. Simply mix a pea-sized amount in with your foundation for an all-over incandescent effect and say hello, gorgeous!
Trust me when I say if you wear this highlighter you're bound to get compliments. I did.
So Cosmo girls, try it out and let me know what you think.
Carly Cardellino: I'm the beauty and fashion editor here at Cosmopolitan.com. I'll try just about anything once (I have the crop cutmy hair used to be super-longand body wave to prove it) and then report back. I'm obsessed with hair products, like volumizers and salt sprays, as well as mascara, nail polish, a good foundation (right now I'm using Tom Ford Beauty Traceless Foundation SPF 15), and blush (it literally changes the way you look in seconds)hopefully you can see why I'm in this business. I also love picking out head-to-toe outfits for friends whether they're going on a date with their guy or a black-tie weddingso feel free to click on that "contact" link below and send me a question.

Practical Steps to Get You Going by Trish Porter Save time by thinking ahead and planning. Not sure where your time goes? Write down what you do every 15 minutes for one day. Review your list and note areas where you can save time. Start by doing things such as carpooling; learning to say no; cooking three meals at once instead of one; enlisting the family for chores and wearing a headset while you're on the phone so you can work. Develop a child care plan. Can you trade sitting with someone else? Can your kids go with you? Some churches have programs with child care available. You don't have to be superwoman. Ask for help! Be intentional with your time by being focused and organized. You'll be an example and your kids will learn valuable lessons by watching you, which is more powerful than words. Get more energy every day. Start with the basics: healthy eating, regular exercise, getting enough sleep, reading the Bible and prayer. Plus doing something you love releases endorphins that produce positive feelings and more energy. Believe that you're never too old! I was 40, had just weaned my daughter (1) and had a son (4) when I set out to break the world record. Take time to renew your mind and ask yourself if the negative words swirling around in your brain are true. Plan for success. What can you do in the short term over the next few months? Then make a plan for the next year or two. Do something each day toward achieving your dream. Make each moment count.

Hot weather garden tidy meant a trip to the local tip tonight. Hadn't planned to but on arrival decided to explore their 'SHOP SHOP' (being the sign painted on the door of the walk-in container).
Remembered some VV-ers mentioning about tip-digging a while ago and it's an area I hadn't thought of.
Really pleased I did. Here's some I'm liking:
Lionel Hampton - Hamp
Peters & Lee - By Your Side (spot on LDJB & others ...She's a Mover..crackin')
David Bedford - Star Clusters, Nebulae etc..
David Munrow - Music from the Gothic Era (I like Baroque stuff... )
Y Viva Espana / Bella Espana - Various Artists (fun stuff)
The Drum Suite - Manny Albam - Ernie Wilkins (was excited in a *breaks* way but a little humdrum on 1st listen)
Got some truly dreadful lame disco too embarassed to list (doh! )..but good disco/funk too
Bootsy Collins - Psychticbumpschool / What's a Telephone / Pinocchio (What's a Telephone is an excellent jam around the 'She's rather Be With Me' groove)
Harvey Mason - Till You Take My Love / nice What's Goin' On on B-side
Inner City Express - Fat On Funk / Shu Dig Dancin'
Boiling Point - Let's Get Funktified 1 & 2
Bunny Sigler - Let Me Party With You (Party etc)
Linda Clifford - If My Friends Could / Runaway Love (like the B)
King Floyd - Body English
Manu Dibango - Big Blow / Aloko Party (Aloko's great...bizarrely there were two copies of this )
Don Covay - Travellin' in Heavy Traffic
Reggae Regulars - It's Coming
King Horror - Black Hole / Winston Groovey - Lover Come Back
Chuffed to find the last very, very lyrically rude one priced quite high in RRPG (under King Horror). Not the same buzz at all as finding something you know about but nevertheless.
Sorry this is a kinda 'look what I found' thread...but...well...the local tip's a good VV tip.

(The Humanitarian Social Network)
Hi Marisa! :)
I work at an organization in Brazil that has just recently started to address gender as part a broader development agenda, particularly aiming to increase girl's participation into activities that are often consider as "masculine only" (some types of sports). Although I am not the one directly involved with the activities, I do help the group plan and monitor the results of their work. Perhaps I might be able to help you somehow.
Drop me a message! :)
Hi Marisa
I am an academic studying gender and development among aid workers. I am happy to be interviewed but I don't think I'm what you're looking for.
I would be keen to see the results of this research when you're done. Are you going to post them on the web anywhere, or can I get them from somewhere else?
Many thanks
Hi Kaisa,
Yeah, I'm hoping to interview professionals rather than researchers, but thanks a ton for the offer!
If you're researching a similar question, would you have time to suggest a couple of important authors/papers? I'm just starting out with the background and I'm still feeling a bit lost...
Thanks again!
Hi Marisa
There really isn't much that's been published on women aid workers. I have conducted an exhaustive search of the literature and haven't come across anything that specifically focuses on this topic. So its a great thing to be researching.
The closest thing to what you're looking for might be this: http://urgentactionfund.org/assets/files/Resiste/Resiste-Final-Web.pdf
Its a publication about the experiences of women human rights defenders.
I'd love to see the results when you're done. My email address is: firstname.lastname@example.com
Good luck!

Cortex-A12 fills a gap
Starting off Computex with an interesting announcement, ARM is talking about a new Cortex-A12 core that will attempt to address a performance gap in the SoC ecosystem between the A9 and A15. In the battle to compete with Krait and Intel's Silvermont architecture due in late 2013, ARM definitely needed to address the separation in performance and efficiency of the A9 and A15.
Source: ARM. Top to bottom: Cortex-A15, A12, A9 die size estimate
Targeted at mid-range devices that tend to be more cost (and thus die-size) limited, the Cortex-A12 will ship in late 2014 for product sampling and you should begin seeing hardware for sale in early 2015.
Architecturally, the changes for the upcoming A12 core revolve around a move to fully out of order dual-issue design including the integrated floating point units. The execution units are faster and the memory design has been improved but ARM wasn't ready to talk about specifics with me yet; expect that later in the year.
ARM claims this results in a 40% performance gain for the Cortex-A12 over the Cortex-A9, tested in SPECint. Because product won't even start sampling until late in 2014 we have no way to verify this data yet or to evaluate efficiency claims. That time lag between announcement and release will also give competitors like Intel, AMD and even Qualcomm time to answer back with potential earlier availability.
Continue reading our overview of the newly announced ARM Cortex-A12 and Mali-T622!!
ARM is a company that no longer needs much of an introduction. This was not always the case. ARM has certainly made a name for themselves among PC, tablet, and handheld consumers. Their primary source of income is licensing CPU designs as well as their ISA. While names like the Cortex A9 and Cortex A15 are fairly well known, not as many people know about the graphics IP that ARM also licenses. Mali is the product name of the graphics IP, and it encompasses an entire range of features and performance that can be licensed by other 3rd parties.
I was able to get a block of time with Nizar Romdhane, Head of the Mali Ecosystem at ARM. I was able to ask a few questions about Mali, ARM's plans to address the increasingly important mobile graphics market, and how they will compete with competition from Imagination Technologies, Intel, AMD, NVIDIA, and Qualcomm.
We would like to thank Nizar for his time, as well as Phil Hughes in facilitating this interview. Stay tuned as we are expecting to continue this series of interviews with other ARM employees in the near future.
NVIDIA Details Tegra 4 and Tegra 4i Graphics
Subject: Graphics Cards | February 25, 2013 - 08:01 PM | Josh Walrath
Tagged: nvidia, tegra, tegra 4, Tegra 4i, pixel, vertex, PowerVR, mali, adreno, geforce
When Tegra 4 was introduced at CES there was precious little information about the setup of the integrated GPU. We all knew that it would be a much more powerful GPU, but we were not entirely sure how it was set up. Now NVIDIA has finally released a slew of whitepapers that deal with not only the GPU portion of Tegra 4, but also some of the low level features of the Cortex A15 processor. For this little number I am just going over the graphics portion.
This robust looking fellow is the Tegra 4. Note the four pixel "pipelines" that can output 4 pixels per clock.
The graphics units on the Tegra 4 and Tegra 4i are identical in overall architecture, just that the 4i has fewer units and they are arranged slightly differently. Tegra 4 is comprised of 72 units, 48 of which are pixel shaders. These pixel shaders are VLIW based VEC4 units. The other 24 units are vertex shaders. The Tegra 4i is comprised of 60 units, 48 of which are pixel shaders and 12 are vertex shaders. We knew at CES that it was not a unified shader design, but we were still unsure of the overall makeup of the part. There are some very good reasons why NVIDIA went this route, as we will soon explore.
If NVIDIA were to transition to unified shaders, it would increase the overall complexity and power consumption of the part. Each shader unit would have to be able to handle both vertex and pixel workloads, which means more transistors are needed to handle it. Simpler shaders focused on either pixel or vertex operations are more efficient at what they do, both in terms of transistors used and power consumption. This is the same train of thought when using fixed function units vs. fully programmable. Yes, the programmability will give more flexibility, but the fixed function unit is again smaller, faster, and more efficient at its workload.
On the other hand here we have the Tegra 4i, which gives up half the pixel pipelines and vertex shaders, but keeps all 48 pixel shaders.
If there was one surprise here, it would be that the part is not completely OpenGL ES 3.0 compliant. It is lacking in one major function that is required for certification. This particular part cannot render at FP32 levels. It has been quite a few years since we have heard of anything not being able to do FP32 in the PC market, but it is quite common to not support it in the power and transistor conscious mobile market. NVIDIA decided to go with a FP 20 partial precision setup. They claim that for all intents and purposes, it will not be noticeable to the human eye. Colors will still be rendered properly and artifacts will be few and far between. Remember back in the day when NVIDIA supported FP16 and FP32 while they chastised ATI for choosing FP24 with the Radeon 9700 Pro? Times have changed a bit. Going with FP20 is again a power and transistor saving decision. It still supports DX9.3 and OpenGL ES 2.0, but it is not fully OpenGL ES 3.0 compliant. This is not to say that it does not support any 3.0 features. It in fact does support quite a bit of the functionality required by 3.0, but it is still not fully compliant.
This will be an interesting decision to watch over the next few years. The latest Mali 600 series, PowerVR 6 series, and Adreno 300 series solutions all support OpenGL ES 3.0. Tegra 4 is the odd man out. While most developers have no plans to go to 3.0 anytime in the near future, it will eventually be implemented in software. When that point comes, then the Tegra 4 based devices will be left a bit behind. By then NVIDIA will have a fully compliant solution, but that is little comfort for those buying phones and tablets in the near future that will be saddled with non-compliance once applications hit.
The list of OpenGL ES 3.0 features that are actually present in Tegra 4, but the lack of FP32 relegates it to 2.0 compliant status.
The core speed is increased to 672 MHz, well up from the 520 MHz in Tegra 3 (8 pixel and 4 vertex shaders). The GPU can output four pixels per clock, double that of Tegra 3. Once we consider the extra clock speed and pixel pipelines, the Tegra 4 increases pixel fillrate by 2.6x. Pixel and vertex shading will get a huge boost in performance due to the dramatic increase of units and clockspeed. Overall this is a very significant improvement over the previous generation of parts.
The Tegra 4 can output to a 4K display natively, and that is not the only new feature for this part. Here is a quick list:
2x/4x Multisample Antialiasing (MSAA)
24-bit Z (versus 20-bit Z in the Tegra 3 processor) and 8-bit Stencil
4K x 4K texture size incl. Non-Power of Two textures (versus 2K x 2K in the Tegra 3 processor) – for higher quality textures, and easier to port full resolution textures from console and PC games to Tegra 4 processor. Good for high resolution displays.
16:1 Depth (Z) Compression and 4:1 Color Compression (versus none in Tegra 3 processor) – this is lossless compression and is useful for reducing bandwidth to/from the frame buffer, and especially effective in antialiasing processing when processing multiple samples per pixel
Depth Textures
Percentage Closer Filtering for Shadow Texture Mapping and Soft Shadows
Texture border color eliminate coarse MIP-level bleeding
sRGB for Texture Filtering, Render Surfaces and MSAA down-filter
1 - CSAA is no longer supported in Tegra 4 processors
This is a big generational jump, and now we only have to see how it performs against the other top end parts from Qualcomm, Samsung, and others utilizing IP from Imagination and ARM.
ARM snaps graphics marketshare from the dragon
Subject: General Tech, Mobile | October 22, 2012 - 02:00 PM | Jeremy Hellstrom
Tagged: arm, qualcomm, marketshare, SoC, imagination, Vivante, jon peddie, mali
ARM has made some serious impact on the mobile market with their Mali GPU on their SoC, with Jon Peddie Research reporting they have doubled their market share over the past year. That number is even more impressive when you pair it with the 91.3% growth in the mobile GPU market. Another player, Vivante, quadrupled their share of the market and while their products are found primarily in Asia you may recognize them as a member of the HSA. Their success comes at a cost to Imagination and Qualcomm, both of whom have seen their market shares drop. NVIDIA is currently making up 2.5% of the GPU market for tablets and smartphones which is not too bad when you consider that the other four main players all license their processors out while NVIDIA remains the sole provider of its Tegra SoCs. Get more numbers at The Inquirer.
"CHIP DESIGNERS ARM and Vivante have achieved significant market share gains in the system-on-chip (SoC) GPU market while Imagination and Qualcomm have seen their market shares fall."

AFDS 2012: ARM once again on stage with AMD - partnership incoming?
Subject: Mobile, Shows and Expos | June 11, 2012 - 12:01 AM | Ryan Shrout
Tagged: mali, arm, amd, AFDS
In a blog post over at arm.com, ARM Fellow Jem Davies has made a point to let us all know that he is going to be attending the AMD Fusion Developer Summit yet again, but this time with something more concrete to discuss. In a very self-aware statement, Davies writes in his post that "my appearance last year generated a lot of speculation about the nature of the relationship between ARM and AMD."
From Davies' post:
This year, we have a great deal to discuss. ARM is all about low power and many people in the industry now realize that GPUs have a central role to play in providing highly energy-efficient computing. It's an exciting future that can grow the ecosystem that surrounds computing. ARM's unique portfolio of CPU, GPU, interconnect and physical IP puts us at the forefront of one of the most important technological changes in a long time. Reflecting on that and some of those changes, I will be making an announcement at the show.
Emphasis above is ours.
Also worth noting is that Jem Davies does not have his own session at AFDS, but rather we can expect to see him to come out on stage during another keynote, likely during Phil Rogers' or Mark Papermaster's.
AMD wants into the tablet market. ARM could accelerate that process.
Exactly WHAT the ARM/AMD announcement might be obviously isn't known by many yet, but we have speculated many times that an AMD built, ARM architecture processor, with Radeon-based graphics technology and ARM low-power CPU cores, could help AMD enter into the world of ultra-lower power SoCs very quickly. Markets like the pending onslaught of Windows 8 RT tablets and clamshells have NVIDIA foaming at the mouth and AMD would be remiss to not attempt to tackle the same markets and one-up Intel at the same time.
It should be an exciting week! Keep checking pcper.com and our AFDS site tag for all the latest news including keynote live blogs!
Intel and AMD be warned; ARM could grab up to 20% of the laptop market in the next 4 years
Subject: General Tech | July 19, 2011 - 01:02 PM | Jeremy Hellstrom
Tagged: Intel, amd, arm, mali, low power
Those who ignored Microsoft's announcement that Windows 8 will support ARM processors will perhaps take note of Isuppli's claim that ARM could grab 1 in 5 of the laptops sold by 2015. The extremely low powers System on a Chip design that they have been selling were at the opposite end of the market from AMD and Intel's X86 chips, but with the rise of the APU the market has undergone a fundamental change. While the X86 makers are trying to lower the power requirements of their APUs, ARM is busy trying to ramp up the power of their chips. There are already several vendors establishing a relationship with ARM, up to and including Apple.
ARM's Cortex A9 and Mali are impressive, but ARM is already talking about console level graphics quality from their next generation of chips which we will see in roughly 18 months. This improvement will also encompass their next generation of power efficency research, which should keep power consumption and heat well below what Intel and AMD will be trying to reach. As well, it might provide an interesting opportunity for NVIDIA as the lack of a license to integrate chips with the new X86 based architecture will not stop them from developing graphics enhancements for ARM based laptops. Drop by The Inquirer for more on this topic.
"CHIP DESIGNER ARM could power over 20 per cent of all laptops shipped in 2015, according to analyst outfit IHS Isuppli.
IHS Isuppli has forecast that the domination of X86 chips in the laptop market will start to diminish as Microsoft releases its Windows 8 operating system. Windows 8 will be the first desktop operating system from Microsoft that will support the ARM architecture that is found in just about every smartphone in existence."

Frimpong has been on loan at Craven Cottage since January, and boss Jol has already admitted that he would like to make the deal permanent if the opportunity arose.
The Ghanaian midfielder made his debut in Fulham's 0-0 draw with Norwich last month, and came on as a substitute during his side's 2-2 draw with Sunderland last weekend.
"If there is the opportunity to take him, I would probably do it," Jol said.
Frimpong has suffered two serious cruciate knee injuries in the last three seasons, and will be hoping to establish himself in the Premier League after failing to guarantee himself a starting place at the Emirates. He has also played for Wolves and Charlton on loan from Arsenal.
The bloke is a science project. He is the offspring of a human and a vegetable. An empty vessel. A moron. His greatest achievement in life is that he once kicked a ball that hit Rafa van der Vaart in the head. Avoid.- ricky villa

It really is annoying seeing (Tier)(Team) (Filler) in every RMT. Pokemaster, the minimum character limit is stupid, tbh. No one is just going to put a dot or something, and saying "New OU Team" is enough.
Also in comments, move it down to 3. What if someone is asking a yes or no Q? Why can't I just respond with "No." or "Yes."
It is annoying a lot of users, I suggest it leaves.
I reduced the characters on RMT and Meta to 10, should be plenty. I'm not gonna reduce it on Pokebase though, if you need "filler" then you haven't asked the question properly.
As for comments, you can just say "yes that's right" or something. The minimum is only 6. It's to prevent pointless inane comments like "lol".
