Progress in technology has brought microelectronics to the nanoscale, but nanoelectronics is not yet a well-defined engineering discipline with a coherent, experimentally verified, theoretical framework. The NCN has a vision for a new, 'bottom-up' approach to electronics, which involves: understanding electronic conduction at the atomistic level; formulating new simulation techniques; developing a new generation of software tools; and bringing this new understanding and perspective into the classroom. We address problems in atomistic phenomena, quantum transport, percolative transport in inhomogeneous media, reliability, and the connection of nanoelectronics to new problems such as biology, medicine, and energy. We work closely with experimentalists to understand nanoscale phenomena and to explore new device concepts. In the course of this work, we produce open source software tools and educational resources that we share with the community through the nanoHUB.
This page is a starting point for nanoHUB users interested in nanoelectronics. It lists key resources developed by the NCN Nanoelectronics team. The nanoHUB contains many more resources for nanoelectronics, and they can be located with the nanoHUB search function. To find all nanoelectronics resources, search for 'nanoelectronics.'

Luis' prayer
The world is changed as children — and sponsors — are affected through sponsorship. Ask Amy Grant, who has been a Compassion sponsor and spokesperson for years.
"My children and I were deeply moved when we visited Luis, one of the boys we sponsor in Guatemala," says Amy. We became very fond of Luis and his mother.
"Before we left, they asked to pray with us. His mother led. Then Luis wrapped his arms around me. He prayed that God would make all my music and that God would bless all the songs I sang so I could continue to be his sponsor.
"Luis was 9. He'd probably never heard the radio, much less a song I'd sung. That prayer completely wiped me out.
"Sponsorship is one of those things that makes a profound difference years down the road, in our lives as well as those of the children."

Luxury, on a Mission
Turquoise waters, favorable breezes, 24/7 pampering—and charitable acts, to boot—all have a place in this crewed- charter adventure. A feature from our December 2010 issue
After a bracing, early morning, 230-foot climb up to Fort Duvernette, just south of Young Island, off the southern tip of St. Vincent in the Windward Islands, I leap off a stern of the 75-foot luxury Privilège catamaran Matau and into the turquoise water to cool off.
Barely a whimper comes from me, yet stewardess Alice Morby hovers gently nearby, plush bath towel at the ready. Even more delectable is the proximity of shampoo, conditioner, and soap-gel dispensers installed inside the transom steps, inches, of course, from a handheld shower. Identical setups exist on both port and starboard transoms.
"Coffee?" Alice asks.
Having spent some years as chef and mate in the crewed-charter business in the Caribbean, I think I remember the routine aboard a high-end sailboat. Make breakfast and clean up. Sail, then anchor. Make lunch and clean up. Sail, then anchor. Make dinner and dessert. Clean up. Sleep.
Today a different voice rises up inside: Relax. You're a guest.
Sunblock? Check. Swimsuit? Check. Fluffy towels and—soap-gel dispensers in the transom? Are you kidding me?
Having now ridden this self-indulgent streak to a former swab's personal limit, I gently shoo Alice away and make my way up from the aft platform into the broad, veranda-like guest cockpit.
The beam on Matau— the name derives from a Maori expression for a highly stylized, mythologically significant carving of a fish hook—spans 36 feet, and there's ample room in this area for a dining table, several settees, even a spiral stainless-steel staircase. At the top, out of the way of the entertainment arena, is the flybridge. At 20 feet above the waterline, it's where the helm, the sail controls for the cutter rig, and the navigation panel are, flanked by an exposed sunbathing and lounge area that includes settees, throw pillows loaded with unobtrusive weights so they don't fly off on a reach, a wet bar, a sink, a fridge, an icemaker, and a grill. By the end of the trip, I'd come to call this area, one that any guest might never bother to climb up to and explore, the garret apartment and tease Virginia Wagner, Matau's captain, and Jamie Stark, the engineer and first mate, that they should sublet the space.
But having not yet thought about anything beyond my caffeine habit, much less sailing through the gorgeous Grenadines and delivering books and school supplies to island children, I push the button that automatically parts the double glass doors and step inside the boat's modern, elegant, air-conditioned saloon.
Before me on a dining table is the morning eye-opener: a spread of coffee, juice, hot water, cream, milk, assorted teas, breakfast cereal, and yogurt. A hot breakfast of eggs over easy, tropical fruits, bacon, and scones fit for lumberjacks is an hour off, to be served alfresco by chef Christopher Cantrell.
A Charter Broker and a Cause
Seated at the table is longtime charter-yacht broker and fellow crewmate Ann-Wallis White, dressed in her flowing, diaphanous nightgown, her hair falling in wisps from a loose bun, and studying the world from behind owl-eyed glasses.
Piled high all around her and dwarfing the spread is her inner life's work, the yield of volunteer hours far more significant to her than early morning hikes. There are books and more books, fiction, nonfiction, and reference, for kindergartners through young adults.
From such slender donated tomes as Indians of the American Southwest by Steven L. Walker to The Super Science Book of Rocks and Soils by Robert Snedden, it's endless. There are books everywhere, in boxes under the table, on its surface, on the settee. Hello Moon, National Velvet, A Separate Peace. Used, donated, hardbound, and paperback.
Then there are boxes of Crayola crayons—64-count cartons, with the built-in sharpener, not the little boxes. Squeezed in next to the coffee thermoses, in stacks, are colorful bundles of pencils, multicolored plastic sharpeners, teacher's kits, Palmer-method cursive-penmanship strips, you name it. I feel the shadow of my life as a grade-schooler tugging at me once again.
"Here's something you can do to help," Ann says, handing me a sheet of oval stickers. "Put these on the books you think they match. Find good ones for Murray and Olin."
I grab coffee and get to work. The labels contain book-donation details and in-memoriam tributes to various acquaintances Ann has made over the 35 years she's worked in the crewed-yacht vacation business. I poke through the books and have fun associating certain titles with late titans of the marine industry—Desmond Nicholson, Murray Davis, Olin Stephens II. I peel off the labels and smooth them on the covers.
Ann is either talking to herself or thinking out loud, reminding herself what needs to happen today and what schools we need to visit. Out pops this: "R-E-A-D is a four-letter word. We have to find a way to save these beautiful books from the recycling bin. I do not want them turned into paper towels for 10 cents a ton. The digital age may be upon us, but the children need these books."
She's a flurry of energy, a force of nature. Questions, phone numbers, emotions, imagination, memories of a privileged childhood in a highly educated family, tidbits from a well-traveled life, juicy networking stratagems, commentary, opinion—it all tumbles out.
And, still sitting right where I found her a few minutes earlier, she's going to set me straight about my priorities during our time aboard Matau.
"On this trip," she says, "we're having this sybaritic wonderful time, but our pastime is to give books away. Because we're both on assignment, the kayaking and snorkeling is the work part. The crew is coddling us like eggs, and they are so good at what they do. But our fun here is to give away the books.
"Life," she adds with a bit of a huff, "does not begin and end at the Willy T!"
Her denunciation refers, of course, to the world-renowned British Virgin Islands steel-hulled trader-turned-watering hole, where thousands of charterers (and the paid swabs supposedly chaperoning them) have made an ill-considered pit stop, giving themselves over to such pastimes as body shots. I turn away so she doesn't see me giggle.
What a relief, the swab in me thinks. The wine lists, the huge meals, the air-conditioning, the Jacuzzi in the master cabin, the mountains of pillows and fluffy towels. Someone else is making my bed. It's killing me. Thank God we'll be busy.
Good Works First
Why a luxurious crewed cat that goes out for $40,000 a week is raising its waterline by leaving books behind wherever it sails becomes less of a mystery for me as my time aboard passes.
Our north-south Grenadines sailing itinerary includes stops at St. Vincent, Bequia, Mustique, the Tobago Cays, and Union Island before our final destination of Grenada. Hiking, snorkeling, kayaking, evening beach barbecues, and yes, sailing, are the trademark attractions, eminently worthy of any vacationing sailor's pursuit.
For the record, thanks to endless patience from the four onboard sailing professionals, we do pull all that off. But Ann is correct: Shoreside visits are really at the heart of this crewed charter. The plan, she says, is to donate books during visits to island schools that need help.
In more than three decades of devotion to the Caribbean, Ann has seen the irony in the world of luxury sailing. The sharp contrast of glitzy yachts bobbing among beautiful tropical islands whose citizens struggle to make ends meet in economies dependent on tourism and vulnerable to natural disasters isn't lost on her. On St. Vincent, where monthly income is the equivalent of about US$300 and a paperback book costs about US$12, the government has expressed support for the existence of secondary schools and efforts to have at least one member of each family attain a university-level education.

CHARLESTON, W.Va. -- AS MARSHALL enters its ninth Conference USA season, consider that it is the final time the league will send a team (presumably the league champion) to the Dec. 31 Liberty Bowl at Memphis.
Or so we are led to believe.
Conference USA's weekly notes begin the league's bowl synopsis thusly: "Conference USA has guaranteed spots in six games during the 2013 season. The AutoZone Liberty Bowl has the top selection of C-USA teams and the league also will send teams to ..."
C-USA declares its opponent in the Liberty to be an "SEC or American selection," the latter referring to the American Athletic Conference (I jokingly call it the "Ack!")
The "Ack's" release goes through its bowl situation, declaring, "The American also has longstanding deals with the BBVA Compass Bowl in Birmingham, Ala., and the Beef 'O' Brady's Bowl in St. Petersburg, Fla."
And ... "The conference additionally has an agreement with the AutoZone Liberty Bowl in Memphis, Tenn. The American will send teams to two of those three games in the 2013 season."
Two paragraphs later: "If an American team is chosen for the AutoZone Liberty Bowl, the conference's representative would face either the Conference USA champion or an opponent from the Southeastern Conference."
Well, isn't that special?
So what sayeth the SEC, who has about 23 bowl berths to juggle? In its large, sideways chart of all bowls, it lists the Liberty as "C-USA/American vs. SEC."
Uh, oh. The ghost of 2011 is running in my mind. That's the year a beyond-bizarre format was concocted to boot the C-USA champ - with both finalists in the top 25, mind you - to the curb.
Remember this? If the SEC had eight eligible bowl teams, the Liberty would be C-USA vs. Big East. If the SEC had nine, SEC vs. Big East. If the SEC had 10, SEC vs. C-USA.
Instead of league champion Southern Mississippi taking its rightful spot at Memphis, we were treated to Cincinnati vs. Vanderzzzzzz ...(Gosh, that bowl was so much better when the C-USA champ played the Mountain West champ, wasn't it?)
For the love of the few things that are holy in college football, please tell me there is no repeat. I didn't get the straightest answer Friday afternoon out of Memphis.
Ron Higgins, the bowl's media liaison, assured me the bowl's relationship with Conference USA would remain intact this season, but was unfamiliar with the 2011 scenario. He referred me to associated executive director Harold Graeter, who did not return my call.
In Huntington, athletic director Mike Hamrick said, "I am under the impression that whoever is the champion of Conference USA will be playing in the Liberty Bowl. That's my impression."
He's seen crazier things happen, though.
Marshall has to win me over, but the Herd is favored by some to win the league. Wouldn't it be just that program's luck to do so in the last year of C-USA's "relationship" with Liberty Bowl, only to get jobbed?
Next year, this won't be an issue, as the New Bowl Order begins and the Liberty Bowl tells Conference USA to go pound sand. I guess C-USA will do so, in Boca Raton or the Bahamas.
Herd fans can adapt, right?
During Marshall's off week, coach Doc Holliday talked about the trials and tribulations of recruiting today's athletes.
As you know, Holliday has specialized in recruiting south Florida, but the following statement applies anywhere in the country.

Madonna has been famously lampooned for the British accent she adopted after marrying Guy Ritchie in 2000 and moving to London, but when the pop superstar, 53, decided to direct "W.E.," about a controversial moment in modern British royal history, she fretted that the current royals would take serious offense.
PHOTOS: The most unforgettable royal moments of 2011
Opening up on U.K. talk show "The Graham Norton Show," Madonna revealed that the film -- about King Edward VIII's shocking 1936 decision to abdicate the throne in order to marry American divorcée Wallis Simpson -- almost didn't get made.
"It was problematic, and I started thinking, 'What am I doing? It's about the Royal Family," Madonna said, "And are they going to hate my guts? And am I right to throw myself into this juggernaut?'"
PHOTOS: How Madonna's face has changed
She forged ahead with the project, despite those initial fears. "I am super proud of it. It's three years of my life," she said. "It was extremely time-consuming, a labor of love."
And, regardless of the singer's messy romantic past -- she divorced Ritchie in 2008 and, earlier, Senn Penn in 1989 -- the provocateur says she's still a "romantic" at heart.
"It's not that I ever believed in perfect love," the mother of four explained. "But if you are a romantic like me, you want to be swept off your feet by a knight in shining armor. Unfortunately, we are raised on those fairy tales, and even if we are sophisticated, educated, intellectually evolved human beings we still, in the back of our mind, think that Mr. Right is going to come along and we are going to live happily ever after."
PHOTOS: Her sexiest, craziest outfits of all time
Could Madonna, whose 12th studio album, "M.D.N.A.," comes out in March, see herself getting married for a third time?
"I could actually," she said. "Yes." (She's been dating 24-year-old dancer Brahim Zaiban since late 2010.)
PHOTOS: Lourdes, Madonna's fierce mini-me
The Grammy winner also fessed up to squabbling with her eldest child, daughter Lourdes, 15, over the usual stuff: clothes!
"She is always sneaking into my dressing room and borrowing things when I am still sleeping," she admitted of her daughter with ex-boyfriend Carlos Leon. "She doesn't fear me at all ... I have no authority!"
And when the "Erotica" singer chides her daughter for overly sexy clothing choices, it frequently backfires.
"If I say to my daughter, 'That outfit is a little bit too risqué or revealing' and she looks at me and says, 'That's rich coming from you,'" Madonna cracked. "Sometimes, you have just have to say, 'Because I said so!'"

Our organically grown Bai Mu Dan White Tea (also known as White Peony) is grown in the mountains of the Fujian Province in China and is from the tender young buds and leaves that remain after the legendary Silver Needle has been harvested.
White tea (camellia senensis) undergoes very little processing and the absence of this (steaming, rolling and oxidation) leaves the appearance and cell structure of the leaves basically unaltered. This purity may be what some researchers have said might cause white tea to have a greater concentration of antioxidants than all other teas. White teas have all of the benefits of green tea and are the most delicate of all, their taste being subtle, complex and mildly sweet.

Advice on advice: a quickie primer
Knowing where to find good career advice, and knowing how to tell good advice from bad, are huge life skills that can take years to master. Here are some tips to shorten your learning curve:
Seek multiple advisers. No one human, no matter how experienced or smart, knows it all. What's more, you'll be amazed at how often you receive conflicting advice -- proof that getting a second opinion is always a good idea.
Seek different kinds of advisers. Talk to people outside your field. And don't limit yourself to "graybeards." You can get great input from people only a few years ahead of you -- they remember what it was like to be in your shoes and might have very practical ideas.
Seek high-caliber advisers. It's a no-brainer that the best advisers are ably managing their own lives and careers, but be aware that some people project a success that does not bear up to scrutiny. (How often do you hear of "investment advisers" whose own financial lives are a shambles?) So do your research, ask for recommendations and use common sense.
Look as well as listen. Sometimes successful people, though they may try, can't explain why they are successful. Pay attention to what they do in addition to what they say; you might discover their secrets.
Don't shun the naysayers. They may be bummers, but the advantage of people who see the bad in everything is that they quickly home in on potential problems. And they may point out things -- true things -- about your work or your plans that others won't say for fear of "being negative."
Finally, just because you ask for advice doesn't mean you have to follow it. Do you worry that advisers will be miffed if you ignore their words of wisdom? Well, maybe they will. But it's your life and your career, and you are the one who has to live with your decisions.
(Bonus tip: Take notes. People love being asked their opinion, and will often give you way more information than you can take in, much less remember later.)

How the Nonprofit Revitalization Act Affects Your Arts Organization
Will Your Arts Organization Be Compliant with NYS Law beginning July 1, 2014?
Last year, New York State enacted the Nonprofit Revitalization Act. What does this mean for your arts nonprofit? It means you might need to make some changes to your bylaws and policies by July 1, 2014 in order to remain compliant with New York State Not-for-Profit Corporation Law. The best way to make sure your organization is compliant, is to review your by-laws and policies with a lawyer. Below is a short list of key reforms, as noted by NYCON in a recent webinar. They will be having an upcoming webinar entitled "Part 1: New York Nonprofit Revitalization Act Part- Steps To Compliance – An Overview" that reviews all these changes in more detail.

King of Samsung: a chairman's reign of cunning and corruption
At the outset, I am quite OS agnostic and have been looking at upgrading my iPhone 4 to either a WP8 or Android phone. I may still go with an iPhone 5 but I am frankly becoming a bit bored.
This preface was for the purposes of introducing this link to a Verge article which really bothers me. I am hardly a naif and have lived extensively on 3 continents. I am not unaware about rampant corruption, especially in Montreal where I am living at the moment. The article is entitled "King of Samsung: a chairman's reign of cunning and corruption" A very enlightening read. http://www.theverge.com/2012/11/30/3...rs-lee-kun-hee |

just curious, was Asia in any of those continents?
what Samsung is doing is fairly standard in Japan, Korea, Taiwan, China, and to some extent Singapore. Southeast Asian countries take it to a whole new level judging from the comments in that article it appears a good majority of people have never lived overseas. |

I am quite aware of other scandals there, especially the Lockheed and Recruit scandals in Japan. I just did not feel I should raise that in case some people thought I was being xenophobic. I still feel due to the prominence of Samsung this was worth mentioning as this particular case seemed particularly egregious. |

BrainSuite — GPS for Surgery
BrainSuite — GPS for Brain SurgeryBy J. Michael Desaloms, M.D.
In the United States, 20 to 25 of every 100,000 people will be diagnosed with a brain tumor. Brain cancer is the leading cause of cancer-related death in patients younger than age 35. Approximately 19,000 people in the United States are diagnosed with primary brain cancer each year, and about 13,000 die of the disease.
A surgical resection is the recommended course of treatment for brain tumors. For benign tumors, complete resection can be curative. For malignant tumors, aggressive resection extends survival.
Advanced surgical technology is available at Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital Dallas to optimize brain-tumor resections and improve patient outcomes. Open since 2006, the Nancy Hamon BrainSuite is a fully integrated operative suite that combines an intra-operative MRI with a surgical navigation system. Surgeons at Texas Health Dallas were the first in the U.S. to use this technology.
The high-field iMRI provides neurosurgeons immediate access to new images of the brain before, during and at the conclusion of the surgical procedure. Traditionally these images have been available only prior to the surgery or after the surgery has been completed. Access to real-time images assists surgeons in removing as much tumor as possible by allowing them to more fully differentiate diseased tissue from healthy tissue. These real-time images can also help protect critical areas of the brain.
Another key element of the technology is the SUITE's neuro-navigation system, which links the real-time MRI images with the actual position of the surgical instruments. The navigation system serves like a global positioning system (GPS) for the brain, providing instant updates on the location of the instruments in relation to the tumor.
Technological advances have made surgery for brain tumors safer and more effective. Fortunately for patients in North Texas, Texas Health Dallas is at the forefront of these advances.

Know the Risks — Genetic Testing for CancerBy Becky Althaus
Along with traits such as brown eyes or curly hair, some families pass along genes that place members at higher risk of cancer. The Center for Cancer Risk and Genetics at Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital Dallas provides genetic testing for predisposition to cancer genes.
A genetic counselor specializing in oncology genetics provides information about how these genes are inherited, the risks for cancer which family members could benefit from testing, and the medical management options available.
Genetic testing for cancer is important because it provides key information that can lead to prevention or early detection of cancer. People who learn they have a gene mutation can undergo increased surveillance (tests such as colonoscopies or MRIs), take medicine or undergo preventive surgery to increase their chances of living long, healthy lives.
The most common cancer genes for which testing is provided are the BRCA genes related to breast and ovarian cancer. Families with the following are at increased risk of carrying a mutation in a BRCA gene:
Genetic testing for colon cancer is also available at Texas Health Dallas. Indicators that a hereditary colon cancer gene mutation may be present are the following:
Although genetic testing can provide additional information regarding potential cancer risks and health-risk information that is potentially important for family members, it does not detect all causes of hereditary cancer. Texas Health Dallas always encourages regular visits with your primary care physician.
Most health insurance policies pay for genetic testing. Federal and state laws protect persons from changes in their health insurance coverage due to identification of a predisposition for cancer resulting from a gene mutation. For more information about the Genetic Counseling and Testing Program at Texas Health Dallas, call 214-345-8365.
2011 Breast Cancer Survivors Retreat — Hope and Answers
On Saturday, March 26, 84 breast cancer survivors gathered at Cancer Support Community North Texas for Texas Health Dallas' annual Breast Cancer Survivors retreat. The retreat is a unique event bringing survivors and caregivers together for a time of celebration and education.
The opening panel discussion gave the survivors the unique opportunity to ask questions to a panel of a wide range of specialists, including breast surgeons, a medical oncologist, a plastic and reconstructive surgeon, a radiation oncologist and a breast radiologist. The 90-minute discussion covered topics ranging from causes of breast cancer to genetic testing and management of side effects.
After the large group concluded, attendees were invited to choose from a variety of small breakout sessions for in-depth discussions in a more intimate atmosphere. Sessions included "Telling Your Story," "Cancer Survival," "Nutrition: It Makes a Difference," "Love, Anger, and Forgiveness," "Looking Your Best," "Getting Back in Touch with Massage Therapy" and a talk from a survivor on "Long Term Survivorship."
Feedback is always important, and the attendee evaluations were awesome! One attendee's comment summed up the event: "Every survivor needs this seminar."
The day ended with hugs and tears of support from new-found friends and from patients reuniting with care providers, all vowing to return next year to meet again.
The retreat is held annually at the end of March. If you would like more information or wish to be added to the mailing list, contact Jeanice Janes, Breast Cancer Patient Navigator, at 214-345-2036.
Determined to Find Cancer EarlyBy Sharon Hillgartner, N.P.
The numbers are scary: this year about 569,490 Americans are expected to die of cancer, more than 1,500 a day. In the U.S., cancer accounts for nearly one of every four deaths. Recognizing these staggering statistics, Texas Health Dallas has developed the Center for Cancer Risk Reduction & Genetics. The goal of the Center is help individuals understand their risk and detect cancer early, when it is most treatable.
To help fight the battle against breast cancer, the Center for Cancer Risk Reduction and Genetics worked with Massachusetts General Hospitals on the development of a specialized breast cancer risk assessment survey. This survey combines several nationally recognized risk calculators into one tool that can accurately identify women at increased or high risk for breast cancer. This tool looks at personal and family history, previous biopsies and known risk factors such as age, ethnicity, hormonal factors and genetics. Taking all these factors into account, the tool is able to generate a percentage risk score.
Each survey is personally reviewed by a nurse practitioner at the center, and those at increased risk are able to take advantage of services offered by the center, including:
If indicated, referrals may also be made to the nurse navigator, medical oncologist, breast surgeon or radiation oncologist for preventive care.The goal of the Center is to empower women with the knowledge to make informed decisions.
The risk-assessment survey is available free of charge online. To see if you are at increased risk, go to myhealthriskonline.com and complete this brief but potentially life-saving survey.
The Cancer Journey at Texas Health Dallas — A Patient's Story
One December morning two years ago, Judith Oglesby went to work aware of abdominal discomfort. By noon she was in severe pain and decided to drive herself to the Emergency Department at Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital Dallas.
Physicians on the medical staff of Texas Health Dallas ran diagnostics. Oglesby reported that she had recently undergone her annual physical and that her primary physician should have the blood test results. Thanks to shared electronic documents, surgeon Randall Kirby, M.D., was able to reference the blood test.
He came to Oglesby in the ER and told her that she definitely had colon cancer and that the large tumor in her colon was adjacent to perforations he had detected that could lead to toxic septicemia. It was 2 p.m., and he was gathering a team for emergency surgery at 4 p.m. She was stunned, yet confident of Dr. Kirby's skills. She then met Kristi McIntyre, M.D., of Texas Oncology at Texas Health Dallas, who would be her oncologist and direct her medical care following surgery.
In those two hours, Oglesby called family, friends and church; prayed for the surgical team; and prepared herself mentally for the long recovery ahead. Before the surgery, she insisted on a pastor from the pastoral care department, and a wonderful man came to hold her hand in prayer.
"From the beginning, I placed my care in God's hands and the competent and caring hands of the physicians and skilled nursing staff at Texas Health Dallas," said Oglesby. "Every person I encountered seemed compassionate and supportive, patiently treating and instructing me on the care required by my body following the removal of the colon."
By month's end, she had two additional surgeries, and Kirby determined that the disease had metastasized, spreading to the liver and certain lymph nodes. The cancer was Stage IV, the most serious diagnosis. Oglesby determined to wait to research life-expectancy statistics until she had adjusted to the debilitation at hand. She set her mind on physical therapy, nutrition and follow-up medical care, determined she would recover in time and "outlive" whatever results she discovered. Because dehydration and blood clots are common in patients with her diagnosis, she was hospitalized with these issues several times during the first year. Now she receives all her treatments on an outpatient basis.
"In the beginning I could not physically walk through my condominium; the distance from living room to bedroom was only a few yards but seemed like a mile," Oglesby said. "Dr. McIntyre assured me I would recover in time, and her staff of nurses gave me many knowledgeable suggestions."
Eventually she was introduced to "I Can Cope," a cancer support group providing education and speakers as well as a supportive atmosphere for patients with similar experiences. She also discovered "Fit Steps 4 Life," an exercise program for Texas Health Dallas oncology patients who use the Texas Health Finley Ewing Cardiovascular & Center at Texas Health Dallas. There, assigned personal trainers direct patients in individual fitness programs.
Today Oglesby undergoes a demanding regime of chemotherapy for three days every other week. Due to the nature of chemotherapy, she cannot work full time but remains very optimistic about her life. She is an officer at Highland Park Presbyterian Church.
"Each time I walk into the lobby of Texas Health Presbyterian, I see the images of the three founders of this extraordinary hospital, men from my church, who could see the immediate need for a hospital in North Dallas decades ago," said Oglesby. "They raised the initial funds to build the dream, a first-rate hospital that continues to grow today. I am thankful for Texas Health Presbyterian Dallas."
Oglesby, a former public relations/advertising executive, plans to resume her career as a freelance writer and business consultant on a part-time basis. She also makes handcrafted jewelry, Originals by Judith. You can contact her via email.

Kansas City Chiefs linebacker Jovan Belcher killed his girlfriend and committed suicide on Saturday, but the NFL said the team's game on Sunday against the Panthers will go on as scheduled.
Belcher fatally shot his girlfriend early Saturday, then drove to Arrowhead Stadium and committed suicide in front of his coach and general manager after first thanking them for everything they had done for him, police said.
Belcher was a 25-year-old native of West Babylon, N.Y., on Long Island, played college ball at Maine. He had played all four of his NFL seasons for the Chiefs and played in every game each year, including the 11 so far this season.
Arrowhead Stadium has been lockdown since about 8 a.m.
"We can confirm that there was an incident at Arrowhead earlier this morning," the Chiefs said in a statement. "We are co-operating with authorities in their investigation."
As FoxSports points out, it is incredibly rare for the NFL to reschedule games. The league postponed games for one week after the September 2001 terrorist attacks, and it might be possible for the teams to play on Monday night instead, but it is still a logistical nightmare, the news outlet reported.
However, the Chiefs released a statement Saturday afternoon saying the game against the Panthers will go ahead as scheduled.
Statement from the Kansas City Chiefs on Tomorrow's Game vs. Carolina – chfs.me/SnDv3U—
Kansas City Chiefs (@kcchiefs) December 01, 2012
Authorities received a call Saturday morning from a woman who said her daughter had been shot multiple times at a residence about five miles away from the Arrowhead complex.
"When we arrived, a lady informed us that her daughter had been shot multiple times by her boyfriend, by the daughter's boyfriend," said police spokesman Darin Snapp. "She identified him as a Chiefs player."
Snapp said a call was then received from the Chiefs' facility.
"The description matched the suspect description from that other address. We kind of knew what we were dealing with," he said. The player was "holding a gun to his head" as he stood in front of the front doors of the practice facility.
"And there were Pioli and Crennel and another coach or employee was standing outside and appeared to be talking to him. It appeared they were talking to the suspect," Snapp said. "The suspect began to walk in the opposite direction of the coaches and the officers and that's when they heard the gunshot. It appears he took his own life."
The coaches told police they never felt in any danger, Snapp said.
"They said the player was actually thanking them for everything they'd done for him," he said. "They were just talking to him and he was thanking them and everything. That's when he walked away and shot himself."
It is reported that Belcher thanked Chiefs general manager Scott Pioli and Romeo Crennel for all they had done for him before turning the gun on himself.
Snapp described the girlfriend as in her early 20s and that she and the player had a child together. He said the woman's mother told police they had recently been arguing.

But could Joe Montana bench press 600 lbs?
Pfft...easy decision...
Don't forget, Montana needed a Brink's truck worth of $, and was old. That is a totally non-Steeler move to go that route: pay premium $ for an old QB in free agency. That's just not gonna ever happen in Pgh, period.
Montana liked to throw to the tight end. Not a good fit for Pittsburgh.......

7. CB Walt Aikens, Liberty
I remember going to a game during the Green years and sitting in the 2nd row on the 45 right behind the Steelers bench. Green stood directly in front of us most of the game and he might have been the inspiration for Kim K's butt implant. I've never seen a butt so large on a guy. His legs were the size of a normal sized man.
There was another Steeler back then. Can't remember who it was, but I think he wore #60. That dude was round. He stood next to Green a lot and he made Casey Hampton look svelte.

Chesapeake at Denver Statistical Analysis
Major League Lacrosse enters its seventh week of action this weekend, highlighted by Saturday night's tilt between the Bayhawks and the Outlaws. Undefeated Denver enters the game coming off a huge blowout win against the previously unbeaten Hamilton Nationals, securing sole possession of first place. Chesapeake also comes in strong, after dismantling a young Lizards team, by 13 goals, in New York City last weekend.
The last time these teams met was in last final game of last season—the 2012 MLL Championship Game, in which Chesapeake came out holding the trophy. Look for Denver to do everything in their power to redeem themselves from the Championship Game loss.
· The Outlaws currently lead the league in goals (109), points (114) and shooting percentage (.384).
· Attackman Chris Bocklet leads the league in goals scored; Mundorf is fourth and Snider is fifth.
· Attackman Brendan Mundorf is second in the league in assists; Jeremy Sieverts is second in two-point goals.
· Average 18.17 goals per game, good for first in the MLL.
· Denver has won their games by an average of 8.33 goals; closest margin was a four goal win over Boston.
· 42.9% (9-21) on the Power Play.
· The Bayhawks are currently second in the league in goals (78), points (86) and fifth in shooting percentage (.272).
· Attackman Ben Rubeor is third in the league in goals; Dixon is 7th, Westervelt 8th.
· Midfielder Kyle Dixon is fourth in the league in assists and first in two point goals.
· Average the second highest goals per game, 13 goals.
· Chesapeake's games have been much closer, with both of their losses being by one goal in overtime.
· 37.5% (12-32) on the Power Play.
Advantage: Denver
Denver's ability to put up goal after goal, even against great goaltenders, is something that the Bayhawks are going to have trouble keeping up with. Denver has won their games by an average of 8 goals; if Chesapeake wants to keep It close they must play close to perfect on offense .
· Denver trails only Chesapeake in goals against with 63 total and 10.5 per game.
· Denver is second in the MLL in points against, at 64 total.
· Allows teams to get the third least amount of shots off per game, 23.67, only trailing Chesapeake by one.
· 77.3% (5-22) success on penalty kills.
· Chesapeake leads the league in goals against with 54 total and 9 per game.
· Chesapeake leads the league in points against with 57 total.
· Allows teams to get the least amount of shots off per game, at 22.67.
· Chesapeake spends more time in the penalty box than another team. They have to be careful and keep their eyes on Denver's Chris Bocklet, who leads the league in Power Play goals.
· 80.0% (6-30) success on penalty kills.
Advantage: Chesapeake
The advantage goes to Chesapeake because they have let in less than an average of 10 goals a game, better than anyone else in the league. This week, however, will be their biggest test. They have yet to face an offense that even comes close to how productive Denver has been throughout the season.
· Jesse Schwartzman has played 311 minutes of the team's 360 minutes.
· Schwartzman: 6-0 record (1st), 10.61 GAA (3rd), 67 Saves (3rd), .549 Save percentage (2nd), 1 two point goal allowed.
· Chesapeake relies heavily on two-point goals, but Schwartzman has only let one two-pointer get passed him.
· Kip Turner has played 295 minutes of the team's 360 minutes.
· Turner: 3-2 record (3rd), 8.32 GAA (1st), 68 saves (2nd), .624 save percentage (1st), 1 two point goal allowed.
Advantage: Chesapeake
Arguably the top two goalies in Major League Lacrosse, but Chesapeake has the slightest advantage in the goaltending section. The difference couldn't be any closer and you could make an argument either way. There's a very good chance that this game is decided between the pipes, with offenses and defenses that are as equal as these two are, a clutch save in the fourth quarter very well could be the deciding factor.
The Chesapeake-Denver matchup couldn't be any more exciting as the defending MLL champions take on the currently undefeated Outlaw squad. With arguably the two best offenses, the two best defenses, and two very equal goaltenders, look for this game to go down to the wire. Luckily for Chesapeake, the game is not being played in Denver, where their spirited and informed crowd can cause havoc for visiting teams.
The game will be broadcast LIVE nationally on CBS Sports Network on Saturday 6/15 at 6:30p.m. EST. Don't miss it!

Quoting captainsgirl:Its true there are not only beautiful single women, but successful, financially independent, capable, personable etc. and believe me all over the world the same is true. So why are we single? Well, I may be unpopular in many eyes when I say for me the problem is that over the last decades women have changed, evolved even, we have become so independent and capable that we dont need just any man. Meanwhile, men (in general) are far more needy for a relationship and tend to still treat women as before sometimes rather badly and often without respect. Its no longer emancipation but equality. Now this has left man a little confused in what his role should be. Generally this sort of woman doesnt want a wimp nor a control master. The only thing man has to offer is a strong love relationship and perhaps that is a key to the hearts of many. I completely agree. Men tend to disrespect all women including the ones who were waaaaay outta their league to begin with so women have evolved to independant, self respecting "islands".
And when the GOOD guys, like you, who display manners choose to NOT initiate contact with women with good looks, presuming they are "taken", we all loose out...
