Know Emergency Room Wait Times Before You Leave The House
Mount Pleasant, SC -- Sometimes the most painful part about going to the emergency room is the wait time, but a new addition to the East Cooper Medical Center website is helping patients know how long the wait time in the ER is before they even leave the house.
Residents can now access the new ER Clock on the hospital website Home Page and see the average door-to-bed wait time. They can also see it on a large digital outdoor billboard during their commute on Interstate 526 between the Clements Ferry Road and Daniel Island exits.
Press Ganey, a leading provider of quality improvement solutions in the health care industry, reports that the average ER visit in the U.S. in 2009 lasted four hours and seven minutes but at East Cooper Medical Center, the average wait time in December 2010 was 15 minutes from door to bed.
The time is tracked using a statistical tracker system that transfers data to an RSS (Really Simple Syndication) feed. The feed automatically displays and updates the time online. Wait times reflect a rolling two-hour average and are updated every five minutes. Patients are seen in priority order based on the type and severity of their medical complaint. The technology is designed for patients with relatively minor medical conditions. Patients with potentially life-threatening health problems should call 9-1-1 so they can receive life-saving measures in the ambulance on the way to the hospital. Patients with medical emergencies, such as heart attack, stroke or traumatic injuries, are always seen immediately.
According to Theresa Lynn, RN, director of emergency medicine at East Cooper Medical Center, the technology is helping patients and the hospital address one of the most common complaints about emergency departments – long wait times.
"We know that families are busier than ever and that every minute matters when you are ill or have a minor injury and of course, no one wants to make a trip to the ER," says Lynn. "But for patients with non-life-threatening conditions, knowing before they come to East Cooper what they can expect in terms of wait time in the emergency room can make their hospital visit less stressful. It's so easy, they are even able to look it up on their smart phones too."
About East Cooper Medical CenterEast Cooper Medical Center, part of Tenet South Carolina, is a 130-bed acute care hospital located at 2000 Hospital Drive in Mount Pleasant. Previously located at 1200 Johnnie Dodds Blvd, East Cooper Medical Center has been providing healthcare to the East Cooper community since 1986. We provide a number of services including 24-hour emergency care, women's and children's services, diagnostic imaging and interventional services, orthopedics, sports medicine, pain care, adult and pediatric rehabilitation services, wound care services and surgical care, including nationally recognized spine surgery and breast reconstruction surgery. East Cooper Medical Center is accredited by The Joint Commission, the nation's oldest and largest hospital accreditation agency.

GreatSchools Rating
Teacher quality
Principal leadership
Parent involvement
Our motivated and quirky kid entered OSA sick of school, saddened by being bullied; disgusted with the rudeness and immaturity of the students at our local middle school. She found at OSA: supportive classmates...a caring mentor...committed teachers...a refuge and a place where she bonded with others and where it was okay to be ambitious and worldly. She graduated from OSA in three years and entered UC Santa Cruz this fall--so far is earning straight A's there. Parent involvement is turbo charged.
As a student at OSA, I can tell you that isn't a horrible school. Although I do not like it myself, that does not mean that it isn't the right fit for you or your child. But that being said, it is (like many have stated previously) poorly managed. I have had issues with another student of sexual harassment that was NOT handled to the extent that it should have been. The teachers are either outstanding or very mediocre, and behavior and dress code is brushed aside despite the facade that they are enforced. But, while the administration is lacking, the arts are far from it. The students that are really passionate about art excel to above college standards, and even the kids who don't apply themselves as much in art either drastically improve or are given a new view on their emphasis. Teachers incorporate a specific students' emphasis to help them understand their academic studies, and the arts are taken very very seriously. This is the right fit for a child with a strong adoration for their art, even if they aren't the sharpest pencil in the box.
This school is great for the arts. Small, safe, and engaging for students of all walks of life. Great kids and very safe! Excellent parent involvement. I hope my daughter stays here for high school :)
Great school! My daughter loves the vocal department and looks forward to performing every year. She is starting 8th grade, is very happy and doing very well academically.
Our daughter is a 7th-grade theater student in her second year at OSA. She came to OSA from a top-flight Oakland public elementary school, and her transition to the frenetic, hyper-creative, largely indoor, combined middle- and high-school atmosphere at OSA was somewhat stressful at first. She's settled in now, though, and neither she nor we would trade the OSA experience for any other; her academic education has been more than satisfactory and her arts education has been extraordinary. Her teachers, both academic and arts, are passionate, fair, well educated, and very intelligent. As a result of the creative collaborations she's been a part of, she has a very diverse friend pool that extends from sixth to twelfth graders, from Alameda to Livermore to Richmond to Brentwood. One of our fondest hopes in sending her to OSA was that her middle school social and cultural life would be founded in creative collaboration rather than superficial judgmentalism; so far, so good.
I agree with the previous parent, OSA is like FAME on streroids. If you have a artistic child, this is the place from them to grow not just as a artisit but a active participant in a evolving community. Yes, theres the great, good, bad and just dreadful in every community. Thats where we come in as parents. Prepare your kids to be challenged. To be heard. Acknowledge that sometimes the only thing you can change is yourself. OSA has been a refuge for my A student whose grown academically, emotionally and professionally. Yes! Each child is working at a craft. It is really inspiring to watch. So don't be discouraged by negative reviews check the school out for yourself. Work with the amazing staff for yourself. Sometimes it really works others times not so great. Overall, it's worth it to have this level of professional training at a public charter school!!
My child has been attending OSA for 3 years now, going on her 4th. I am impressed with school overall and recommend it to anyone looking for an alternative school for their artistic, unique child. The Academic program has gone through changes, but I see improvement each year, and the one bad year, with one bad teacher, they addressed it quickly. When my child's math seemed to be overwhelming, I was able to email, call and visit with the teacher to figure out options on how to improve. There is a lot of parent involvement opportunities and I encourage you to be part of it, so your voice is heard. It is a family like experience for the kids. Yes, it is also shows the typical attributes of a regular school and all its issues, but with a principal walking the halls and insisting that he gets to know the kids by face and name says a lot also! It's like FAME on steroids!
Our daughter just completed 6th grade in visual arts. It was a big change from a small elementary school, but she was supported by both her art emphasis teachers and academic teachers. There seems to be a joy in the halls of OSA that I haven't encountered other places. A number of the kids seem to be struggling with math, and the school and parent community are working hard to improve tutoring opportunities, particularly in math and writing. Hopefully this effort will continue and expand.
There are many positive aspects to this school. However, there are some negative aspects also. The math proficiency scores for the school are frighteningly low. If your student struggles in math, don't expect this school to help him/her. The proficiency rating in math is around 25% - meaning only 25% of the students are proficient in their grade level of math. Which is appalling. Certain teachers are problematic in that they are so wrapped up on their special causes, it can lead them to be unfair. My student has been called out and reprimanded for asking questions about the class structure. This same teacher has acted in a discriminatory manner based on race. The emphasis teachers are not on campus for the entire school day. This shortened day with the multitude of activities in the school pretty much guarantee that it can be impossible to contact or talk to certain teachers. The schools is excellent at painting a very rosy picture, but there are some serious issues to considered when sending your child here.
My son had been struggling socially at other schools since kindergarten which has affected his academics greatly. He is now and has always been an individual which has always made it harder for him to "fit in". He has worried what others think of him and if they like him, which has always distracted him and made it harder for him to focus on his school work. He has been bullied and left out so much it has been heart breaking to watch. This school has been the first place ever that he has fit in. He has (100s of) friends, his grades have improved and he actually WANTS to go to school. He says it is "like camp" . The school really has taken him under their wing. They do not tolerate bullying. The school is like a big family that looks out for each other. The kids are amazing. They all remind me of my son.. amazing, creative, loving and talented. The academics are great. My friends who have kids in top Oakland public schools and I have compared work and OSA is ahead in all areas of study. I am amazed that a school like this exists. It is a dream come true for our family. If your child is artistic and struggling to fit in in other schools I HIGHLY recommend this school! :)
My daughter is entering high school and has spent two years at OSA in middle school. Although the school has challenges to strengthen its academics, especially at the high school level, the overall experience has been very positive for her. The students and most of the teachers are very passionate about their arts emphasis and overall learning.
Our daughter is entering 8th grade at OSA -- We are very pleased with her experience at OSA- Amazing what can be done in a public charter school with great leadership and vision- She has exceled both academically and within her vocal emphasis - It is a diverse environment - which contributes to the learning experience.
This school is such a joke, poor academics, out of control GHETTO KIDS! and only a handful of good teachers who truly care about their students. I would not recommend this school to anyone. I'm so glad that i'm not going back to OSA. Just how many of these kids really go onto a four year college? They never say. Parents beware!!!
My daughter has attended the school for 3years now. We were pleased and enthusiastic about being at such a wonderful school and being part of the instrumental department. With the recent restructuring of this department during the middle of the school year was quite disruptive. I also feel that security is also an issue in and around the school. Lastly the school should really look in to bullying. I think they have a closed mind and blind eye to this topic. It actually goes on and no one seems to care
My child is in their 2nd [and last] year at OSA. We have been very unhappy (mildly stated) with the Instrumental Music Department. My child (and classmates) are openly mocked and humiliated by teachers. My child has had grades entered, then lowered, without explanation. My child (and others) are actually told the school has a waiting list of kids who are probably better musicians and that they could easily be replaced. There was a petition, signed by Instrumental Music families, which addressed these same concerns and experiences. I participated in Instrumental Music Department meetings for families where these concerns and experiences were discussed. My child reports some improvement and less humiliation, but no longer has trust in the teachers. No school polices have been enacted to ensure that a respectful, encouraging learning environment will be created and maintained. Parents' only true recourse is to remove their children from the school, which we are doing, and as over 20% of Instrumental Music families did last year. The shame is the school has some outstanding academic teachers who go above and beyond to help the kids.
I agree with the student who states the children should post their reviews. This is my son's second year at OSA and he loves this school. If your child is showing interests in any of the arts emphasis you will not be disappointed. It fees so good to see a group of kids that have the opportunity to work as pre professionals. Mr Savage is no joke (in love) he has high expectations for the students in his emphasis and is even harder on them with regards to their academics. If you do not maintain the proper GPA your child will not participate in the school events. I LOVE OSA!!!!
This is our first year at OSA and our last. This school is by far not what it is stating to be. Do your research before you send your children here and talk to other parents who kids attend this school. Fighting in the streets at the corner of the Fox theater, have seen this take place at least 3 times. NO SECURITY!!!
My daughter is new to OSA this year, and has found the school community to be extremely supportive and positive. The communication between the school and the parents is far superior to our past experiences with public school. It's a nurturing environment for students who have a passion for art! If you have a child who is passionate about their art, I highly recommend this school.
I attend OSA and this is my second year. I think the curriculum offered is one of the best in the state, and the teachers do an excellent job. The academics are very well explained and each emphasis or major is taught and refined exemplary. Some parents may not agree with the wide acceptance of diversity, culture, religion and especially sexual orientation, however this school would be a wonderful choice for any school wishing to hone their talents and skills.
I am a student at osa and i love it. Some parents may not understand but then again they don't go here. I think the students should rate the school. They are the ones being educated here. I love it here. The people and the arts. Its fun and better then most oakland schools. I would much rather be here then at any other school

What Does the Job Market Look Like for Recent College Graduates?
The March jobs report is out, and it's bad news for people looking for work. The nation added 88,000 jobs last month. That's about half what analysts had expected. The national unemployment rate fell to 7.6%, but that's only because hundreds of thousands of people dropped out of the workforce. Next month, thousands of college students will also begin looking for jobs. At Troy University, students have mixed views about the future of the job market. " There are jobs out there, it's just you have to look for the right ones, and sometimes in the fields that you graduate in, it's harder to find a job. in my particular field, it could go either way," said Reginald Stevens, who majored in Spanish.
" Students just might have to work a little harder to find them, because there's more competition. "That makes it harder for you because there's resumes out there from everyone all over the country that are willing to move and do all this great stuff, and you're just sitting here like, I'll move too, please give me a job," said Elizabeth Rodgers, who will graduate in May. Still, Cole says, there are opportunities for recent grads who take the extra initiative. " Troy University's Career Services Center is open to all Troy University students who want to perfect their resumes or get more assistance with their job searches. There is good news locally, though. At Troy's Spring Job Fair, about 45 employers came, many looking to hire fresh graduates. Lauren Cole, Career Services Coordinator, says that's an increase. |

Most of us indie folk really feel the tug to give handmade around the holidays. It's not just that we're tired of buying cheap gifts from the big box stores; it's that we want to give something with a little heart and soul in it.

Prefer to buy from a shop? Unanimous Craft has a great list of brick and mortar shops that specialize in handmade goods.
On a budget? Everyone will love these delicious and easy-to-make gourmet treats: vanilla and sea salt caramels dipped in dark chocolate (via Indie Fixx), homemade marshmallows (via Simply Gluten Free), or heartwarming chai (via my own blog) all hit the spot. Or how about a set of monogrammed notecards for friends watching their sugar?
Need an extra boost? Tara over at Scoutie Girl has a wonderful little planner and some great advice to help you get through your list. Or check out The Rikrak Studio's Handmade Community Holiday Gift Guides.

Disney World Cuts Funds to BSA Over Anti-Gay Policy

text: New York City and Las Vegas Top the List of Winter Getaways Researched OnlineTripAdvisor Study Shows Online Travelers Focusing on U.S. Travel DestinationsNEEDHAM, MA -- October 29, 2003 -- TripAdvisor (www.tripadvisor.com), the leading travel research site, announced today the results of its study on the most popular worldwide winter vacation destinations researched online for 2003. Based on the behavior of over 15 million unique visitors over the last three months researching destinations in the U.S., Canada, Mexico, Caribbean, Europe and the South Pacific, the study showed an increasing preference for U.S.-based travel destinations -- specifically New York City and Las Vegas. Of particular interest was the shift from last year's favorites -- based predominately in Mexico and the Caribbean. Five of the 10 most popular winter destinations were U.S. destinations, including New York City as #1 and Las Vegas as #2. Orlando, San Francisco and Maui were also represented in the top 10. New York City has always been a favorite hot spot for holiday shopping and events, such as the tree lighting and ice-skating in Rockefeller Center. It moved up the ranks from #2 in last year's TripAdvisor winter vacation study to #1 this year. "Holidays and visitors are two synonymous words here in New York City," said Cristyne L. Nicholas, President & CEO of NYC & Company. Las Vegas climbed the ranks from #6 last year to #2 this year and has emerged among travelers as more of a family-friendly vacation destination than just a place to gamble, with family shows, rollercoasters, pool slides and waterfalls to keep children entertained. San Francisco and Maui are newcomers to the top 10, showing their recent appeal as popular vacation getaways. While some of the traditional favorite international vacation destinations appear again on this year's list, including Cancun, Paris, London and Playa del Carmen, half of the top 10 list are U.S. destinations. Roughly 70% of TripAdvisor's monthly visitors are based in the United States, so these results reflect a continued trend toward domestic travel. "Comparing our seasonal travel research rankings from year to year is a good way to examine consumer travel trends," said Steve Kaufer, CEO of TripAdvisor. "This particular research demonstrated the growing popularity of Las Vegas as a place to spend vacations, and the continued trend toward U.S. travel and staying closer to home." Methodology and Results The complete rankings are: |

Colts Cut 11, More Moves to Come
The Colts cut eleven players today, bringing them that much closer to the 75-player requirement for Monday afternoon. These players include:
This, along with the trade for Vontae Davis puts the Colts at 80 players. However, Brandon McKinney will be put on the injured reserve list with a broken foot, so that brings them down to 79. They must be down to 75 by 4 PM ET this afternoon.
Apparently, the new Colts' coaches and schemes didn't think much of David Caldwell, Chris Rucker, or Terrence Johnson, all players who contributed in 2011's defense. It's not a big surprise considering the change of scheme, although personally I do think Caldwell is a decent run supporter at the safety position.
The other cut of note is WR Quan Cosby, who impressed in the first preseason game against the Rams. Since then however, he's been relatively invisible, andit is a crowded position.
Speaking of crowded, the Colts' cornerback position is much less so after releasing four yesterday, but the acquisition of Vontae Davis is a big boost to the spot. Justin King remains the favorite to get the nickle corner spot, but it's a cluster of fail after Powers and Davis. It will be a revolving door all season, unless somebody steps up.

► A foxn1:mCherry transgenic line specifically marks the thymic epithelium in zebrafish ► Development and proliferation of thymic epithelial cells is cell autonomous ► Thymus homing is guided by chemokines and occurs after multiple in-out-in cycles ► Thymocyte development in zebrafish embryos is completed in less than 4 days
T cell development occurs in the thymus. The thymic microenvironment attracts hematopoietic progenitors, specifies them toward the T cell lineage, and orchestrates their differentiation and egress into the periphery. The anatomical location of the thymus and the intrauterine development of mouse embryos have so far precluded a direct visualization of the initial steps of thymopoiesis. Here, we describe transgenic zebrafish lines enabling the in vivo observation of thymopoiesis. The cell-autonomous proliferation of thymic epithelial cells, their morphological transformation into a reticular meshwork upon contact with hematopoietic cells, and the multiple migration routes of thymus-settling cells could be directly visualized. The unexpectedly dynamic thymus homing process is chemokine driven and independent of blood circulation. Thymocyte development appears to be completed in less than 4 days. Our work establishes a versatile model for the in vivo observation and manipulation of thymopoiesis.

x328ci Posts: 4Hey im going to be ordering a 328ci coupe, im tradin in my 05 325i. anyway I cant decide on the leather. I want to have a cool different leather i have black in my sedan but I was thinking red with the alum trim but a lot of people I know says its not cool and over the top what do you guys think? Im gettin jet black would the saddle brown look cool with jet black? Im young so I want it to look sporty and cool and not boring....
MrShift@Edmunds Posts: 43,356
kyfdx@Edmunds Posts: 25,242Just to prove the old saying about opinions...
I think the brown happens to look great with the black... :surprise:
The nice thing about the brown (not sand) interior with BMW, is it comes with black carpets and dash... lends a nice contrast.. In the BMW, the brown looks like nice leather furniture...
I haven't seen the new red... If it is a darker wine color, that would look great... If it is really red... I agree.. too flashy..Moderator - Prices Paid, Lease Questions, SUVs
MrShift@Edmunds Posts: 43,356
kyfdx@Edmunds Posts: 25,242Yeah... I know... it seems counter-intuitive, and I agree with you generally... but, the natural brown that erickpl refers to, looks really good in black cars, and has a 2-tone black/brown appearance..
I am also assuming that saddle brown is the same basic look..
Just don't ask my wife about the color matching thing, when it comes to my clothes..Moderator - Prices Paid, Lease Questions, SUVs
MrShift@Edmunds Posts: 43,356
abfisch Posts: 591Uuuwww. I could not disagree more. Black on Black, would be the hottest(temperature wise)inside the car, sitting in the sun. Although I have a black BMW, it is the metallic with the tan also. But I did not have a choice, buying the car used. Wood trim is for old Rolls Royces and Jaguar's only. Dark colors look better with with chrome trim. Light colors look best with flat black trim. All opinion, but contrast is what makes it. My buddy has wooden trim on a 330cic, the dark wood trim, if it is real wood. Unimpressive and misplaced to some. Aluminum or Titanium in a sports car.

There is no other city in the world better to kick-off Spring Break than Miami! And if you don't believe me, just ask hot boy Joe Jonas! The 22-year-old served as host of Victoria's Secret Pink Nation Spring Break Pool Party held at the beautiful Shelbourne Hotel last week alongside models Chanel Iman and Elsa Hosk.
In the last month or so, Joe has been spotted at many South Beach hotspots including Bâoli-Vita and The Raleigh. As a huge fan of Miami, it was perfect that VS picked him to get the party started!
"I love Miami!," Joe exclaimed. "I've been here every other week for the past two months and thats just me because I love the people, the culture, the beaches are amazing. And now that it's spring it's so beautiful out and I think this is perfect for people to fly down and enjoy Miami.
There is so much here to do and to have fun."
Chanel and Elsa were equally excited to soak some rays while meeting with some of their biggest fans who lined up for hours to get a spot by the pool. The decorations were full of neon hot pink, light purple, ocean blue, lime and hot orange decorations including inner tubes, towels and sunglasses for guests to take home.

Ecolab Announces New Service Relationship with Laundries
- Details
- Created on Monday, 03 December 2001 03:47
- Written by Staff
St. Paul, Minn. – To better align its sales organization with the needs of customers, Ecolab recently restructured its laundry business. "Ecolab has had two separate sales organizations serving the laundry industry since 1987 when Ecolab acquired several companies to form the Textile Care Division," says Doug Baker, senior vice president, Institutional Division.
"Laundry size was a key factor in determining which sales organization serviced a customer. But with so many technological advances in the industry and a higher demand for specialized service, we saw a need for our sales organization to be segmented by laundry market rather than laundry size."
The Textile Care Division will now focus its sales and R&D resources exclusively on the needs of "for-profit" laundries: commercial laundries and shirt laundries. Leading the division in this new focus is recently appointed Vice President and General Manager Jim Franklin. A 24-year Ecolab veteran, Franklin has served in many management capacities, most recently Vice President of Ecolab's Latin America business.
Textile Care's Commercial Laundry Specialists are trained specifically for the challenges of commercial laundries, such as extreme soil removal and energy-saving wash formulas with increased wash aisle efficiency. Product development will have a similar focus. In the past months, for instance, the Textile Care Division has introduced a new category of laundry chemical for commercial laundries, TurboFleXtraTM Visco-conditioner. This new product captures the key benefits of both a powder and liquid conditioner, resulting in a 15% improvement in cleaning and whiteness performance.
Textile Care Shirt Laundry Specialists will provide service to shirt laundries that buy Ecolab product through distributors. Ecolab's EXEC 120º line of low-temperature products was developed specially for this market to minimize fabric damage and reduce energy costs.
The Institutional Division will service all on-premise hospitality, healthcare and institutional customers. "Since the Institutional Division was primarily serving on-premise laundries, product development was approached differently than for commercial laundries," says Baker. "Our solids technology and compact liquid systems were introduced for space savings and employee ease of handling. While these offerings have been very successful, Institutional Territory Managers can now offer larger hospitality and healthcare laundries a broader line of products, including technology developed by the Textile Care Division."
"For most of our customers, the change will be invisible," explains Baker. "Both divisions will draw on Ecolab's corporate technology and talent to maintain and build their respective leadership positions in the market."

That s a significant over simplification of what a hit confirm is.
If it were that simple than all that people have spent in training mode with CH/Block/block type on random with a crouching opponent to confirm different follow ups to an IAD cross up into either a block string, a combo, or a CH combo were duly wasted. This is excellent training btw, to avoid some training mode habits. Just set all of that stuff to random no matter what it is you're learning and work with it.
