Sunday, March 10, 2013 - Breathing New Life Into Patients
A year ago Mary Jo Heard was suffering the lingering effects of pneumonia, including shortness of breath and fatigue. Feeling run down, she began giving up activities she loved, such as singing in the choir at church. When she required oxygen 24-hours a day, she was referred to a pulmonologist, a specialist in lung disease.
The pulmonologist was pessimistic about Mrs. Heard's prognosis. She was admitted to Fort Sanders Regional Medical Center for extensive testing, including a lung biopsy.
Finally, after months of wondering why she was feeling so run down, she was given a diagnosis: idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis. Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis is scarring or thickening of the lungs without a known cause. The prognosis given by her physician was that her condition was incurable. She needed to treat the symptoms, and come to terms that she may only have a few years of life left. "That was hard for us to hear, but we weren't going to accept that she was dying," shared Fred Heard, Mary Jo's husband.
Mary Jo Heard with her husband, Fred.
In the hospital her pulmonary function was at 30% (above 80% is good), and she required oxygen 24-hours a day. A pulmonary therapist in the hospital, knowing she lived in Sevier County, asked if she would be interested in outpatient pulmonary rehab at LeConte Medical Center. When the Heards replied yes, the therapist contacted her colleague Joyce Massaros, Respiratory Therapist, at LeConte Cardio-Pulmonary Rehab. Mrs. Heard's physician agreed that she could participate if it would "make her feel better," although he was skeptical that it would improve her prognosis.
LeConte's Pulmonary Rehabilitation team provides individualized programs for those suffering from lung disease. Sessions are twice weekly for 1½ hours, for a total of 24–36 sessions. "Our goal with pulmonary rehab is to slowly build patients'strength up, while monitoring oxygen levels and cardiac activity," explained Massaros.
Patients receive information on everything they would need to know about lung disease, and how to have a better quality of life. Mr. Heard was glad that spouses were included in the education, "The lessons on stress and relaxation were very helpful and working so closely with others going through the same thing really helped develop a strong support system."
"The first day Mrs. Heard came in to rehab, she couldn't walk three feet without huffing and puffing, and was on a constant flow of oxygen. Now she is completely off of oxygen, even during exercise," said Massaros.
"I was fearful the first time on an exercise machine. I was so weak when I started rehab that my husband had to bring me in a wheelchair," remembered Mrs. Heard. "But the more I exercised, the better I could breathe! When I went back to my doctor (pulmonologist) he couldn't believe the difference. He's still amazed that I can exercise without oxygen!" After reviewing her progress, including a 98% lung function score, and X-rays, her physicians think that her fibrosis may be reversing itself, which is incredibly rare.

Northwest Colleges Set Schedule |
Colleges - Men's DI College |
The newly-formed Northwest Collegiate Rugby Conference (NCRC) released its 2010-11 season schedule Thursday. The NCRC consists of nine universities in the Pacific Northwest, including two from Canada, in an unprecedented move to have a regular-season league based in the USA that involves teams from outside the country. (Canada already does this, with Seattle playing in the British Columbia men's DI leagues.) Central Washington will be fielding a non-CPL team in this competition. Similarly, the University of British Columbia will field their 2nd squad, the Braves, while their varsity side plays an independent schedule. The league will use the Bonus Point system (4 pts for a win, 2 for a tie, and bonus points for a loss by 7 or less or for scoring four tries in a game). "The Universities are keen to take part in this new competition and look to build on the branding of University Rugby programs in the Pacific Northwest to highlight Rugby as the Sport of Choice in Collegiate Athletics," said NCRC Director Craig Brown. The chase for the NCRC seed to the national DI playoffs will be wide open, with Oregon State, Oregon, Washington, Eastern Washington, Western Washington, a Washington State all in with an excellent shot.

Abstract | Behavioral problems such as disinhibition, irritability, restlessness, distractibility, and aggression are common after acquired brain injury (ABI). The persistence and severity of these problems impair the brain-injured individual's reintegration into family, school, and community life. Since the early 1980s, behavior analysis and therapy have been used to address the behavioral sequelae of ABI. These interventions are based on principles of learning and behavior that have been robustly successful when applied across a broad range of other clinical populations. Most of the research on behavioral treatment after ABI has involved clinical case studies or studies employing single-subject experimental designs across a series of cases. The literature supports the effectiveness of these interventions across ages, injury severities, and stages of recovery after ABI. Recommended guidelines for behavior management include: direct behavioral observations, systematic assessment of environmental and within-patient variables associated with aberrant behavior, antecedent management to minimize the probability of aberrant behavior, provision of functionally equivalent alternative means of controlling the environment, and differential reinforcement to shape positive behavior and coping strategies while not inadvertently shaping emergent, disruptive sequelae. This package of interventions requires direction by a highly skilled behavioral psychologist or therapist who systematically monitors target behavior to evaluate progress and guide treatment decisions. A coordinated multisite effort is needed to design intervention protocols that can be studied prospectively in randomized controlled trials. However, there will continue to be an important role for single subject experimental design for studying the results of individualized interventions and obtaining pilot data to guide subsequent randomized controlled trails. |

Sir Alex Ferguson has pointed out that wresting the title crown back from Manchester City would represent a very successful season for United.
In an exclusive interview with MUTV, the boss admits he is perplexed at any suggestion that the defeats to Real Madrid and Chelsea in the Champions League and FA Cup respectively could take some of the gloss off the campaign.
Perhaps it is the commanding lead in the table that causes some pundits to claim there could be a 'flat' end to the season for the Reds but nothing could be further from the truth for the manager, who appreciates how difficult it is to win the league.
Despite City chief Roberto Mancini's recent comments, the title race is still not over and Monday's derby is one that United will be desperate to win in order to stretch the lead even further to 18 points with seven fixtures remaining.
Sir Alex said: "I was asked about only winning one trophy. I think that's a strange question in the context of the kind of competition we have as we're up against teams from London - Arsenal, Tottenham and Chelsea - plus Liverpool and Everton.
"They're massive challenges every year [for both Manchester clubs]. For every one of those teams, the supporters want to win one trophy. I think we can win the one that really does matter to the fans in particular.
"Yes, I'd love to win the Champions League again but I'd say that we were knocked out in circumstances everyone is still talking about. The disappointment at being knocked out by Chelsea is obvious but the league form has been fantastically consistent."
Meanwhile, Nemanja Vidic remains a doubt for Monday's clash after the captain sustained a thigh injury during last weekend's 1-0 victory at Sunderland with Jonny Evans also struggling to make Monday's encounter.

Monday, October 22, 2012
'Doctor Who' star Matt Smith has revealed that he and his new co-star Jenna-Louise Coleman already have great chemistry on set.
The 29-year-old actor, who plays the Doctor, has been busy shooting next year's episodes of the BBC One hit sci-fi show with Jenna and he insists she has made a very "assured" start to her role as companion Clara Oswin.
Matt is enjoying a return to a one-on-one dynamic in the TARDIS after working with Karen Gillan and Arthur Darvill, who played former companions Amy Pond and Rory Williams for the last three years until they were dragged back in time by the Weeping Angels.
Smith believes that the constant evolution of 'Doctor Who' is very exciting for fans.
He told BANG Showbiz: "Jenna is getting on wonderfully well, I look back to my first day and I was like a rabbit in the headlights. She's much more assured than I was.
"The Doctor treats her (Clara) differently, it changes the way he is. But isn't that what's exciting about this show? That you get to tune in again for a first episode? All these stories come to the end of their cycle, the Ponds came to the end of their cycle and are part of a wonderful era, but now it's time for Jenna to have her adventures and I think she's going to be really popular."
The 26-year-old assistant has been taken under the Doctor's wing on set and she has been helped in adjusting to the huge changes in her life.
He explained: "I've tried to help her into the process of making the show. It's sort of a big drastic life change; you live in Wales for the majority of your time in the year. But she is very detailed, she works hard, she looks great, I think she'll be a fantastic companion."

Practical mod_perl / HTML Book / | ||||
4.1.1. Configuration Files |
Prior to Version 1.3.4, the default Apache installation used three configuration files: httpd.conf, srm.conf, and access.conf. Although there were historical reasons for having three separate files (dating back to the NCSA server), it stopped mattering which file you used for what a long time ago, and the Apache team finally decided to combine them. Apache Versions 1.3.4 and later are distributed with the configuration directives in a single file, httpd.conf. Therefore, whenever we mention a configuration file, we are referring to httpd.conf.
By default, httpd.conf is installed in the conf directory under the server root directory. The default server root is /usr/local/apache/ on many Unix platforms, but it can be any directory of your choice (within reason). Users new to Apache and mod_perl will probably find it helpful to keep to the directory layouts we use in this book.
There is also a special file called .htaccess, used for per-directory configuration. When Apache tries to access a file on the filesystem, it will first search for .htaccess files in the requested file's parent directories. If found, Apache scans .htaccess for further configuration directives, which it then applies only to that directory in which the file was found and its subdirectories. The name .htaccess is confusing, because it can contain almost any configuration directives, not just those related to resource access control. Note that if the following directive is in httpd.conf:
<Directory /> AllowOverride None </Directory>
Apache will not look for .htaccess at all unless AllowOverride is set to a value other than None in a more specific <Directory>section.
.htaccess can be renamed by using the AccessFileName directive. The following example configures Apache to look in the target directory for a file called .acl instead of .htaccess:
AccessFileName .acl
However, you must also make sure that this file can't be accessed directly from the Web, or else you risk exposing your configuration. This is done automatically for .ht* files by Apache, but for other files you need to use:
<Files .acl> Order Allow,Deny Deny from all </Files>
Another often-mentioned file is the startup file, usually named startup.pl. This file contains Perl code that will be executed at server startup. We'll discuss the startup.pl file in greater detail later in this chapter, in Section 4.3.
Beware of editing httpd.conf without understanding all the implications. Modifying the configuration file and adding new directives can introduce security problems and have performance implications. If you are going to modify anything, read through the documentation beforehand. The Apache distribution comes with an extensive configuration manual. In addition, each section of the distributed configuration file includes helpful comments explaining how each directive should be configured and what the default values are.
If you haven't moved Apache's directories around, the installation program will configure everything for you. You can just start the server and test it. To start the server, use the apachectl utility bundled with the Apache distribution. It resides in the same directory as httpd, the Apache server itself. Execute:
panic% /usr/local/apache/bin/apachectl start
Now you can test the server, for example by accessing http://localhost/ from a browser running on the same host.

Miso, a Japanese flavoring, is made by fermenting cooked soybeans. White and yellow misos are mild; dark varieties have more complex flavors.
In a large saucepan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the yellow onion and saute until soft and translucent, about 4 minutes. Add the tomatoes, ginger and garlic and saute until the tomatoes are softened, about 5 minutes. Add the stock and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to a simmer.
Whisk in the miso until dissolved. Add the tofu, mushrooms and watercress and simmer until the tofu is heated through and the mushrooms and watercress are softened, about 1 minute.
Ladle into warmed individual bowls and garnish with the green onion. Serve immediately.

Another beautiful hand drawn film in development in Europe, this one being directed by our friends Adrian Garcia, Alfredo Torres and Victor Maldonado at Barcelona-based Headless Productions (Nocturna), produced by Paris-based Nectarious Films. Look below to see the teaser trailer for My Family And The Wolf.
Also in Cartoon Brew...
http://www.terrybiddle.com Terry Biddle
Beautiful work. I wish more animated films were made this way.
http://croovman.deviantart.com/gallery/ Stav Levi (croovman)
Looking at the teaser I honestly wouldn't mind if the entire movie is about the hero's awesome summer activities.
Chris Sobieniak
I'm more interested in this "wolf" thing that shows up at the end. That's one thing about this teaser I like, you build up this great summer fun and then end on such a moot point that leaves you asking for more.
This studio seems to only do amazing work, but for some reason can't get their work distributed. Can anyone explain this?
Regardless of how excellent & mind blowing your work & studio might be, getting know & or networking takes its time. It also takes time & being highly prolific to build up a good folio of works. Talent & good works usually get known by the right people faster than not, but what most folks don't quite understand is that it will still… take time.
Thumbs up for Headless Productions & for SPAIN!
Are you guys ever considering teaming up with Sergio Pablos & SPA Studios?
http://snazzysuits.wordpress.com cbat628
If I was rich, I'd invest in all the Headless Production films. They're gorgeous and seem very imaginative. How they have not gotten even more funding by now is beyond me.
http://www.daganm.blogspot.com Dagan
Wow, that is BEAUTIFULLY done.
Lovely, lovely, lovely.
Bravo, can't wait to look into the rest of the
'Headless' works…
(GREAT name for a studio/collective, btw!)
:) -
I'm dying a little inside, because they're so good. Like cbat628 said, if I had money I'd spend it to the very last penny to produce their amazing movies.
http://wskibski.blogspot.com wouter bruneel
Looks absolutely amazing!
Love it!!!
Beautiful work but any "collective" still needs a leader. Too many chiefs can be the death of a great company.
http://www.gagneint.com Michel Gagne
This looks very nice. Appealing, well designed and fluid. Bravo.
http://richbailey.blogspot.com Richard
Wow!! That was beautiful. I want to see more
Quality 2D animation.
Everyone but America really seems to get it.
Moving illustrations will always be far & away superior as a form of creative expression to that of Photo Real or Semi Photo Real CGI 3D.
Why? Strength of DESIGN & Depth of DIVERSITY.
3D Models can have this too, but just make e'm StopMotion, ParaNorman WooHoo! (I want to use my hands, not a mouse!)-
Nice artwork does not a compelling film make. Strong characters and storytelling do. These fellows made an intriguing trailer. That's easier to do than making a feature. Hand drawn, puppet, cg, clay, or sand–they're ALL expressive depending on the artist using them, and no one is "far & away superior." They're ALL "moving illustrations." But the general audience doesn't care about that. They want to care about the characters.
Here's hoping these guys can do that and get the support to do so.
Hahaha! Yes you are very very right!
And no, I wasn't even attempting to be reasonably impartial with that comment or trying to be farsighted with that age old tale of rationality taught to all animators about storystorystory.
I was using that comment to express my strong opinions about WHAT I like & WHY I fell in love with art & animation in the first place & WHERE & HOW I hope to see Animation projects & the underlying technology progress to in the future. Like I said, I want to use my hands, not a mouse! Tactile Process!http://tiny.cc/PixarEden
http://tiny.cc/MultitouchWorkstationThese, along with the murmurings about Disney's PaperMan have me pretty jazzed right now.
Aaah, the animation world of tomorrow!
That was great.
http://oye-studios.daportfolio.com Seni O
Can't wait to see what else these guys have up their sleeves!
E. Nygma
Wow! That is fantastic! I would take a feature film in this style over something like "Tin Tin" any day!
Mick Collins
Holy Cow, but this looks fantastic. I can't wait to see it, and I will go out of my way to do so.
http://hobsonproductions.blogspot.com/ Kevin
once again, Headless Productions creates another creative and beautiful masterpiece!
I would be willing to bet that if the Cartoon Network or Nickelodeon offered to air a tv series created and produced by Headless productions, it would be a hit.
http://agoynamedjew.blogspot.com Anson J
A lot of people look at Japanese animation and say that stylistically they all look more or less the same, regardless of which company created it.
A lot of people can look at American animation and say the same thing– that regardless of what company or creator makes the film, the look always falls somewhere within the parameters of the American animated feature film "house style".
It seems that Europe doesn't want to be bound by those restraints. This feature has a look that is light years away from "A Cat in Paris" or "The Illusionist" or "Persepolis" or "Nocturna", all of which have very distinctive looks.
Maybe the Europeans have a little something to teach us Americans about individuality and diversity.
Philosophy & Fly Buys
Europe is a diverse array of tightly packed countries which possess a wide range of ethnicities & a long list of cultural history & heritages. All the more reason to travel if you can.
The World is a book & those who do not travel read only a page. Seek greater knowledge through greater experience, not just of time, but of place. – Some Philosophical Yutz

This was animated entirely on tablets in TVPaint, if anyone's curious.

Love it! Why worrying about Glen Keane's departure from Disney when we can celebrate these group's arrival!!?! Great animation ain't dead!

WHAT THEY SAY. -----Towanda People Speak of Things Serious, Humorous, Odd, Peculiar and Otherwise. [ Transcribed by Denny Hieronymus from the Bloomington, Illinois Daily Pantagraph, dated November 26, 1904; page 3 - column 2 ] -- John Smith-- "Towanda is not the largest place in the county, but it is a pretty good place for Daily Pantagraphs, I am rural carrier on No. 1, and know that there are 150 Pantagraphs come to this office every day, in addition to quite a lot of Weekly Pantagraphs. I should say that this is a pretty large list." -- Fred Lormer-- "Towanda is not very much of a sheep point, still there are several persons who raise them and find it profitable to do so. Mr. B. W. Stover, two miles north, keeps 200 sheep for wool and market. Price and Maurice Jones, two miles southeast, keep fifty to sixty sheep for wool and for sale. C. M. Heller, one mile east of the village, keeps from fifty to sixty head of Cottsdale sheep for breeding purposes only. Daniel, Cornelius, Charles and William Kraft, one and two miles east of town, keep from twenty to twenty-five sheep apiece, as also do Rufus McKenzie and Edward Henderson." --Rufus McKenzie-- "My farm is a mile north of Towanda, but I reside in town. For the past three years and a half I have been in the Galloway cattle business and like it very much. I keep an average of thirteen on hand all the time. They take no more care or feed than ordinary cattle and bring much greater returns. A yearling female sell for $50 to $85, and a male of the same age brings about $100. Aged animals sell for $150 to $200 apiece, except males, which readily sell as high as $400 to $500 apiece. They pay fully as well as horses and do not require nearly so much care, as a Galloway will rustle for itself, while its hair protects it from flies and insects. They are easily fattened and are good milkers, although they excel as a beef breed. I have to buy a new male every two years. The breed, I understand, originated in Ireland." --Roy Vannaman-- "George W. White is the richest man in this township. He owns 1,300 acres of as good farm land as can be found anywhere. He lost one arm when quite a young man by the accidental discharge of a gun and was handicapped in the race of life, as was supposed. His father left him 80 acres of land, but by hard work, economy and excellent management he added to this till now he has a fortune of fully $150,000. He raised cattle, hogs and horses, and worked hard and late. He did many sorts of work that would be supposed beyond the power of a one-armed person, and still works right along. He can shingle, make fence and do work of that kind as well as most others who have two good arms and hands. He has a wife and several children, all highly respected." --Mrs. Mary Macy-- "I very well remember my great grandfather, Jesse Edwards, who was born in Bucks County, Pennsylvania on May 4, 1752, and who died at the home of my mother in Indiana on November 2, 1854. He was 102 years old when he died and was very bright and smart. He served through the whole of the Revolutionary war. First he Page 1 of 2 was a minute man in the New Jersey volunteers, and was in the battle of the Brandywine in 1777. He was afterwards a corporal in the New Jersey Continental line and was in the campaign against the Six Nations from March 11 to November 5, 1779. He was in the battle of Yorktown from October 1 to the 10th, and was present at the surrender of Lord Cornwallis and his command October 19, 1781. He served till the close of the war and his name was the last borne on the pay roll dated May 20, 1783. Of course I am proud of my ancestry." --C. M. Heller-- "For the past thirty-five years I have been raising Poland China hogs and for the last twenty years have also reared Cottswold sheep. I have paid much attention to stock thoroughly believe that for the ordinary farmer the Poland China is the best for an all purpose pig. I came from Hamilton County, Ohio, the home of the Poland China, and each year I go back there and buy a male of the best strain. I raise from sixtyfive to seventy five pigs a year, which I sell for breeding purposes. A female at the age of seven months brings about $20, and when bred $30. A male sells for about $25, and the demand is always good. I endeavor to have my sows have two broods each year, as, of course, it pays much better to have two litters than one. I have paid a great deal of attention to the raising of stock, and, for the past thirty years, have not sold a bushel of grain from my 120-acre farm. I frequently buy corn to feed, as I always feed a car load of fat cattle for the Chicago market each year. I generally keep from forty to fifty head of Cottswold sheep, and find that it pays to do so, although there is no the demand for sheep from feeders that there is for hogs. My sheep average 20 to 24 pounds of wool to the fleece and last season I got 5 cents a pound for it." --George H. Jones-- "The Jones family is one of the oldest and most respected in the county. Four brothers, Nelson, Cyrus, Abram and Frank, came to Smith's Grove, three miles east of here, about 1854, and their father, Abram R. Jones, followed, all from Ohio, shortly after. Cyrus took up a land warrant for 160 acres of land at $1.25 and acre. This same farm was recently sold to George W. White, of Towanda, for $145 an acre. Cyrus Jones moved to California some twenty-five years ago, where he yet resides with his wife and an adopted daughter. He had no children. Frank Jones lives in Bloomington and a sister, Mrs. Phoebe Arthur, also lives there. Mr. Cyrus Jones recently disposed of all his land holdings in this vicinity, having sold 500 acres to his nephews, Maurice, Edward and Price Jones, at about $150 an acre, this land being situated at Smith's Grove. Cyrus is past 82 years of age, and is probably the wealthiest of the family. Mr. Frank Jones, of Bloomington, has four sons, of whom Grant lives in Arizona, Edward in Bloomington, and Maurice and Price near Towanda. All are wealthy and highly respected, as indeed are all of the family that I know of. I am a son of William Jones, who came from Ohio in 1860, and died here. Abram Jones has one son near Anchor, and the widow of Abram and daughter, Mrs. John Cameron, live at Smith's Grove. Messrs. Maurice, Edward and Price Jones own over 1,500 acres of very valuable farm land near here. All the Joneses are Republicans, and there are lots of them. Two years ago, when Cyrus was here from California, there was held a reunion of the Jones family at Smith's Grove that was attended by 100 persons, all of whom were Jones, either by birth or marriage, and hardly half of the family were able to be present at that time. Our grandfather was a soldier of the war of 1812." Page 2 of 2

Last-minute holiday festivities in Ottawa
- Ottawa Travel Guide
- |
- Thursday, 20 December 2012 13:48
Christmas is on Tuesday, and for guests staying at hotels in Ottawa who want to squeeze in as many holiday festivities as possible before the 25th, the capital city has them covered. Indie-rock parties, lighting ceremonies and art exhibits are taking place throughout the weekend, making it easy for visitors to relish in as much cheer as they can.
Here's a guide to holiday events happening just before and immediately following the most joyous day of the year:
Les Mécaniques célestes at NAC French Theatre
Visitors might want to brush up on their French before they attend Les Mécaniques Célestes at the National Arts Centre Theatre December 19-23. This all-French performance, directed by visual artist Claudie Gagnon, is playful and whimsical, making it perfect for families who travel through Canada this time of year.
Midnight Lullabies photography exhibition at Invisible Cinema
Darryl Reid's photography will be on display from December 21 through January 23, so even if visitors won't be in town until after Christmas, they can still check out the exhibition. As a catalogue of Ottawa's underground music scene, the collection of photographs manage to encapsulate a movement that expresses the quirky and eclectic side of the Canadian capital.
Totally Grand New Year's Eve at The Ernst & Young Centre
Want to ring in the new year on the right note? The Totally Grand New Year's Eve at the Ernst & Young Centre is perfect for travellers to Ottawa who want to count down the minutes and seconds to midnight, when 2013 begins and they can say farewell to yet another year. As the largest party in the city, this event will make attendees feel like they're celebrities as they walk along a red carpet leading up to the venue. Cocktails begin at 7 p.m. before dinner and a fantastic performance by SHINE and hours of dancing before the clock strikes 12.
Amos the Transparent at Maverick's Bar
On Friday night (Dec.21), indie rockers Amos the Transparent will be rocking the house at Maverick's Bar, just in time for visitors to relieve stress from work and start off the holiday week on the right track. The Gallop and The Strain will also be performing with the beloved band, and there will be plenty of refreshments and beverages for attendees to enjoy throughout the evening.

Australia — New Zealand citizens and the temporary resident rulesGES Newsflash |
30 March 2012
The Australian Taxation Office (ATO) has recently issued a draft Taxation Determination (TD) which seeks to clarify the application of the temporary resident rules to New Zealand (NZ) citizens.
This TD is important, as temporary residents and residents (non-temporary) are treated differently for Australian tax purposes. While residents (non-temporary) are taxable on their worldwide income and capital gains, temporary residents are exempt from tax on most foreign source income and gains.
In order to qualify as a temporary resident, one of the conditions that must be satisfied is that the taxpayer must hold a temporary resident visa. Furthermore, they must not have been an Australian resident (non-temporary) at any time after 6 April 2006.
When an NZ citizen enters Australia under an NZ passport, they are generally issued with a Special Category Visa (SCV) which does qualify as a temporary resident visa. However, this visa does not include a right to re-entry and therefore ceases to have effect when the individual departs Australia. Therefore, strictly speaking, an NZ citizen would no longer qualify as a temporary resident (and would therefore lose any entitlement to the temporary resident concessions) once they leave Australia – even if for a single day and regardless of the reason (work, holiday etc).
This TD states that given an NZ citizen with an NZ passport generally has an ongoing right to re-enter Australia (on another SCV visa), the individual will be treated as holding a temporary resident visa for the purposes of Australia's temporary resident tax regime.
The ATO has indicated that when the final TD is released, it is proposed to apply both before and after its date of issue.
Deloitte's view The clarification provided by this TD, once finalised, will provide much needed comfort for NZ citizens who will not lose their temporary resident status simply by leaving Australia, either on business trips or holidays. The TD is especially beneficial to those NZ citizens with significant foreign source income and/or capital gains, as these will continue to be exempt from Australian tax while they maintain their temporary resident status. |

Track & Field: Brocklesby sets record as Sequim moves on to districts
Published on Mon, May 14, 2012 by
Sequim Gazette staff

Sequim on to districts
• Judah Breitbach (long jump, 110 hurdles, 300 hurdles)
• Jayson Brocklesby (400, high jump)
• Adrian Clifford (1600)
• Mack Grinnell (pole vault)
• Emanuel Herrera (110 hurdles, 300 hurdles)
• Lopaka Yasumura (shot put, 100)
• 4x100 relay
• 4x400 relay
• Sarah Hutchison (100 hurdles, 300 hurdles, pole vault)
• Jasmine McMullin (long jump, triple jump)
• Emily Van Dyken (pole vault)
• 4x200 relay
• 4x400 relay
One step closer.
Nine Sequim athletes had a total of 17 district-qualifying finishes and helped advance another four relay teams to the West Central Districts set for May 18-19 after a strong showing at a subdistrict meet in Port Angeles on Saturday.
Sequim's boys saw junior Jayson Brocklesby break his own school mark in the high jump with a 6-foot 5-inch effort while the 4x100 relay team nearly set a school mark with a season-best 43.85-second finish — just three hundredths of a second off the Sequim High School record.
"It went well overall," Sequim coach Brad Moore said. "It's wonderful to see the kids perform well."
Sequim's boys finished fourth behind champ North Kitsap, Olympic and North Mason.
Sequim's girls, led by sophomore Sarah Hutchison, placed fifth out of seven teams.
Hutchison nailed two top-three finishes in her hurdles events and cleared nine feet in the pole vault to finish third.
The Wolves' girls' squad was without 400 runner Hannah Hudson, who was out with an illness. She may compete in the relays at districts, Moore said.
Still, Sequim's 4x200 and 4x400 relay teams are moving on to districts, as is Jasmine McMullin, who qualified in both the long jump and triple jump. Freshman Emily Van Dyken is headed to districts after placing fifth in the pole vault.
Brocklesby, bothered by an illness at the meet, managed not only to break the high jump mark but also to qualify in the 400 meters.
Lopaka Yasumura led a contingent of multi-event qualifiers, taking first in the shot put and fourth in the 100.
Emanuel Herrera is headed to districts in both hurdles events, just behind North Mason phenom Craig Allen.
Judah Breitbach was a three-time qualifier, earning district berths in 110 hurdles, 300 hurdles and long jump events.
Also earning a district ticket was Adrian Clifford (1600) and Mack Grinnell (pole vault).
Sequim's 4x400 relay squad also improved on a season best, with Dylan Chatters, Hamish Peers, Emanuel Herrera and Judah Breitbach coming in fifth overall.
"I'm pleased, even with the health (problems), the kids still gutted it out," Moore said.
"We've got some kids who definitely stand a chance (of advancing to state)."
JV finishes season at home
Sequim's girls took top honors while the Wolves' boys placed second in a junior varsity league championship meet on May 9.
With four teams in attendance, Sequim's girls took first place in eight events while the boys won six events.
Sam Lidstrom set a personal best in the discus at 110-1, while Janell Howatt took first (14.79) in the 100-meter sprint. Mikayla Simonson also set a personal record in the javelin with a 76-7 mark. Chatters won the 100-, 200- and 400-meter events.

Cargo Light on '08 Silverado
I have a '08 Crew Cab and can not figure out how to turn on the cargo light over the bed with out having the inside dome lights turn on. When I haul something in the bed at night I like to be able to keep an eye on the load while driving down the road and with the interior dome lights on kinda makes you go blind.

Special Guest: The Viosocalist Brooke Alford
A native of Aberdeen, NC and raised in Marietta, GA, Brooke "Viosocalist" Alford is a contemporary national performing and recording Artist of the Violin. Brooke plays in styles including, but not limited to Contemporary Jazz, Gospel, Pop, and R&B. She has opened for national and international recording artists such as Najee (Nah-G), Will Downing, Paul Taylor, Eric Darius, and Rick Braun, and has shared the stage with James Ingram, Kenneth Edmonds (better known as "Babyface") and Alex Bugnon (Boon-yun). Brooke has also been featured on Trinity Broadcasting Network's (TBN) "Praise the Lord" program with Gospel Artist Rodney Dean Boyden (Boy-den), WATC Channel 57's "Atlanta Live" Gospel and Inspirational television program, and on Earvin "Magic" Johnson's new television channel, ASPiRE, on the Comcast network with a circulating "Viosocalist" commercial.
Typically, one would refer to an individual who plays the violin as a Violinist; however, Brooke likes to refer to herself as an Artist of the Violin. She uses the name, "Viosocalist" [Pronounced: VIO (as in "Violin")-SOUL-KA-LIST], which means a violin player who soulfully sings through the violin, to describe her playing. Brooke's desire is to expose her audiences to her music in a "new light", aside from the classical orchestral setting and image, stretch their imagination past that which is commonly experienced with the instrument, and show that the violin truly has no limits to the music in which it can be seen and/or heard.
Surrounded by creativity from birth, Brooke's Mother, Dell Alford (who is a music educator and piano instructor), and her Father, Dr. Vernon Alford (who is an educator, author, and visual artist), nurtured her fascination with music and the arts from an early age. Brooke began formally dancing at the age of three, studying the piano at the age of five, and then began studying the violin with Violinist, Heather Ritchie just a few years later. Because the unique timbre and tone of the violin were so captivating, Brooke knew that this was the instrument for her. In high school, the violin became her primary focus. She then began studying privately with Atlanta Symphony Violinist, Jay Christy, to advance her playing to the collegiate level of study.

Got my jacket last night and the embroidery is impeccable! The jacket looks great! Just one concern about shipping charges. Because mine was a custom design, the shipping charges were a little more than for a stock embroidery. After redeeming a discount, the order ended up costing less than even a stock order would have - many thanks for that - but I'm still curious why the total cost of an order affects shipping as opposed to the weight of the order.
All in all, you guys did an awesome job!! Thanks. I'll be back for more.

I need help figuring out how I can email a PDF fillable form to someone and they only have access to approve the form with their signature and no other editing rights?
I also work at a college and this would be an Educational Plan the advisors will fill out and email to the students so not sure if it would only work if the recipients have a certain Adobe? Any help would be much appreciated.
The short answer is click Help, read, and then ask questions about what is not clear.
The overview is there are several ways to do it: you can require the first sig to be a certification sig which locks the doc, or on signing the user can choose to lock the doc, or . . . .
Any version of Acrobat or Reader (if the document is Rights Enabled) will work.
Sig fields are form fields, so if signing is allowed then form field fill in is allowed.
I'm sure there are other more sophisticated methods you can use, but I don't know them off the top of my head.
Thanks again I feel like a pest but I only have two signatures on this form.. First I sign then email it to the student for them to look it over and sign it and return to me. I can sign regular but I don't get the Lock Document After Signing box.. Only when the 2nd signature goes on does that option come up? Is there a way I can upload the PDF on the forum?

"I doubt if you know the effort it is to paint! The concentration it requires, to compose your picture, the difficulty of posing the models, of choosing the color scheme, of expressing the sentiment and telling your story! The trying and trying again and again and oh, the failures, when you have to begin all over again! The long months spent in effort upon effort, making sketch after sketch. Oh, my dear! No one but those who have painted a picture know what it costs in time and strength!"
"After a time, you get keyed up and it 'goes', you paint quickly and do more in a few weeks than in the preceding weary months. When I am
en train
, nothing can stop me and it seems easy to paint, but I know very well it is the result of my previous efforts."

Dennis Foley, MD Director, Section of Digital Imaging, Medical College of Wisconsin, Milwaukee, WI
The introduction of helical technology in the late 1980s revolutionized computed tomography and made noninvasive CT angiography (CTA) a reality. Multidetector scanners and improvements in scan rotation speeds have had nearly as profound an influence, making it possible to image the vasculature more quickly and with thinner slices, thus improving both temporal and spatial resolution. 1
Vascular coverage depends on several factors, including the number of detectors, detector collimation, beam width, pitch, and scan rotation speed. In general, CTA is optimized by coupling the thinnest possible image slices with the table speed needed to cover the targeted cephalocaudad dimension during the first circulation of a bolus of contrast media.
At the Medical College of Wisconsin, we use a 4-slice General Electric LightSpeed CT scanner (GE Medical Systems, Milwaukee, WI). A beam width of 5 mm and a detector collimation of 1.25 mm produce the thinnest possible image slices. Using a pitch of 6 and a scan rotation speed of 0.5 seconds, it is possible to achieve a coverage speed of 15 mm/sec. Image acquisition can be modified to account for varying requirements in the amount of coverage needed and the speed with which images must be acquired. By doubling detector collimation to 2.5 mm and beam width to 10 mm, for example, it is possible to cover 30 mm/sec.
Timing of Contrast and Image Acquisition
It is important that image acquisition be timed to correspond with the first circulation of contrast, based on a test mini-bolus; that the duration of the acquisition interval match that of the injection interval; and that the intra- arterial iodine concentration produce an arterial attenuation of 250 to 300 Hounsfield units (HU) throughout the full sequence of the acquisition. 1 Bolus-tracking software may one day be fast enough to precisely match acquisition interval to injection interval but, in my opinion, that is not the case today.
The acquisition interval depends not only on contrast circulation time but also on scanner performance. Figure 1 shows how an improvement in scan rotation speed from 0.8 seconds to 0.5 seconds reduces the image acquisition interval from 30 seconds to 20 seconds in an aortoiliac CT arteriogram encompassing approximately 30 cm of cephalocaudad coverage. The injection interval is similarly reduced.
Breathhold capacity is another factor to consider in determining the image acquisition interval; however, most patients can easily accommodate the 20- to 30-second breathhold typically required for CTA.
More Channels
There are many potential advantages of scanning with more than 4 channels. Among these are increased flexibility, the opportunity to balance the competing demands of speed and resolution, and the ability to reduce the contrast load.
In aortoiliac CTA, just as reducing scan rotation speed from 0.8 seconds to 0.5 seconds on a 4-slice scanner produces a 50 mL savings in contrast, imaging on an 8-slice scanner while maintaining detector collimation constant enables a further reduction in both injection and acquisition intervals, and an additional 50-mL reduction in contrast load (Figure 1C).
In a scan of a potential kidney donor, Figure 2 demonstrates clear definition of the renal arteries from the aortic ostium to the renal hilum. The image was acquired with an 8-channel scanner, following injection of 50 mL of contrast media. The contrast material in the renal collecting system reflects the preliminary mini-bolus.
Thoracoabdominal aortic CTA (Figure 3) provides an example of how an increased number of detector channels enables improvements in longitudinal resolution. With a cephalocaudad target coverage of 55 to 60 cm, a 4-detector scanner with a scan rotation speed of 0.5 seconds uses a 2.5-mm detector collimation and a beam width of 10 mm. Contrast is delivered at 5 mL/sec for 20 seconds, for a total of 100 mL. When an 8-detector scanner is used, the injection and acquisition intervals remain the same, as do the beam width and scan rotation speed. Detector collimation is reduced from 2.5 mm to 1.25 mm, however, improving longitudinal resolution. The resulting 3-dimensional image is shown in Figure 4.
The next advance in helical CT technology will be the introduction of scanners with 16 channels. These advanced scanners will enable the acquisition of slices as thin as 0.625 mm. One result will be a clear improvement in spatial resolution, as shown in Figure 5.
Future Applications
As a result of technological ad-vances in CT scanners, CT angiography is capable not only of evaluating the thoracoabdominal aorta and proximal abdominal visceral branch vessels, but also of improving the definition of vessels within such organs as the kidney, liver, and pancreas. Additional applications include angioportography; abdominal visceral imaging to detect visceral pathology, such as pancreatic lesions and hyper- and hypovascular liver lesions; and renal venography.
Under such circumstances, iodine load becomes an important consideration, as does imaging of various circulatory phases. In hepatic and pancreatic imaging, a 42-gram iodine load is necessary to acquire high-quality images not only in the venous phase, but subsequently in the parenchymal phase as well. 3,4 Similarly, in renal imaging, the desire to reduce the contrast load must be tempered by the need for venous imaging and for demonstrating pathology in the abdominal viscera. Figure 6 demonstrates angioportography in a patient with cholangiocarcinoma of the right hepatic lobe involving the right portal vein. A cut-off of the right portal vein is clearly delineated on venous phase imaging.
Even so, studies that produce first-pass images with excellent delineation of the hepatic arteries may only partly visualize small-vessel neovasculature in focal liver lesions. It is probably not yet possible to demonstrate abnormal vascularity within focal liver lesions as well as could be done with selective hepatic arteriography.
When CT is used to evaluate pulmonary embolism, the contrast load is determined by the need for indirect CT venography. The contrast injection interval extends well beyond the acquisition interval for the pulmonary arterial phase, so that studies can be obtained at 2.5 to 3 minutes after injection of the peripheral veins (Figure 7).
As radiologists begin to perform CT angiography on scanners with 8 or more detector channels, imaging will become faster and resolution better. The contrast load, at least for arterial imaging, can be reduced. Under certain instances, the volume of contrast material used in CTA will be as little as 40 to 50 mL, approximating the amount of gadolinium used for magnetic resonance angiography. Aortoiliac CT angiography, as discussed earlier, is one example.
Practical considerations related to CT angiography must be taken into account as well, among them, workflow, workstation design, and improvements in software for three-dimensional display. *
