In the early part of the twentieth century, Methodists were seen by many Americans as the most powerful Christian group in the country. Ulysses S. Grant is rumored to have said that during his presidency there were three major political parties in the U.S., if you counted the Methodists.
The Methodist Unification focuses on the efforts among the Southern and Northern Methodist churches to create a unified national Methodist church, and how their plan for unification came to institutionalize racism and segregation in unprecedented ways. How did these Methodists conceive of what they had just formed as "united" when members in the church body were racially divided?
Moving the history of racial segregation among Christians beyond a simplistic narrative of racism, Morris L. Davis shows that Methodists in the early twentieth century—including high-profile African American clergy—were very much against racial equality, believing that mixing the races would lead to interracial marriages and threaten the social order of American society.
The Methodist Unification illuminates the religious culture of Methodism, Methodists' self-identification as the primary carriers of "American Christian Civilization," and their influence on the crystallization of whiteness during the Jim Crow Era as a legal category and cultural symbol.
Morris L. Davis is Assistant Professor, History of Christianity and Wesleyan/Methodist Studies, Drew Theological School.
"Morris L. Davis has made a major contribution to the literature in this examination of the denominational cultures that resulted in the racial segregation of the Central Jurisdiction of the Methodist Episcopal Church."
"Draws upon previously neglected primary sources to offer a ground-breaking analysis of the intertwined political, racial, and religious dynamics at work in the institutional merging of three American Methodist denominations in 1939. Davis boldly examines the conflicted ethics behind a dominant American religious culture's justification and preservation of racial segregation in the reformulation of its post-slavery institutional presence in American society. His work provides a much-needed, critical discussion of the racial issues that pervaded American religion and culture in the early twentieth century."
"A discerning, sober, and troubling probing of the preoccupation within the Methodist Church with Christian nationalism, civilization as defined by white Anglo-Saxon manhood, and race, race consciousness and 'the problem of the Negro' that was foundational to and constitutive of a reunited Methodism. A must read for students of early 20th century America."
"The Methodist Unification underscores the immense power that race has held in American, and Methodist, consciousness, and its ability to shape the politics of both church and state."

(FORTUNE Magazine) – Few media circuses surpass the one that swept through the University of Utah Medical Center in 1982 after it announced the implantation of the Jarvik-7 artificial heart in Barney Clark. Millions tuned in; journalists who stampeded to cover the story got so pumped up that some reportedly cornered hospital staffers and offered bribes for scoops. Inventor Robert Jarvik, 36, seemed about to walk across the Great Salt Lake in a burst of boyish ebullience. Then the Lazarus aura faded: Clark, 61, sank in an agony of complications and died on Day 112. The Jarvik-7 was implanted four more times to replace failing hearts, with similar results, before federal authorities halted the procedure.
In contrast, the media all but ignored the implantation this year on April 10 of a heart pump in Francis McKeon, 68, a retired computer programmer, at New York's Columbia-Presbyterian Medical Center. The national coverage consisted of a brief Associated Press story and a TV news spot. Yet the Grim Reaper threw a fit. For the first time, an American dying of heart failure would be going home to live an essentially normal life--potentially for years--with a mechanical device swishing blood through his body.
McKeon's death cheater is a left-ventricular assist device, or LVAD, made by Thermo Cardio-systems of Woburn, Massachusetts. It works in parallel with a moribund heart, shouldering most of its burden. Since 1986 the LVAD has been implanted in more than 700 people for up to 17 months as they've awaited human heart transplants. Surgeon Eric Rose, who put in McKeon's pump with colleague Mehmet C. Oz, says the procedure is now almost routine. But the results aren't: Supported by the bagel-size pump, formerly ashen cardiac patients have outperformed their doctors on treadmills and even shot hoops. Its quietly mounting successes presage a revolution. Within a decade artificial hearts could be beating in thousands of breasts, adding quality years.
If permanent artificial hearts are cardiology's moon shot, McKeon's LVAD is the equivalent of Gemini, the Apollo program's earth-orbiting precursor. The device incorporates a host of hard-won technological advances. Perhaps the most important are its "bio-compatible" materials, which have allowed LVADs to function without problems for well over a year in patients' bodies.
Columbia-Presbyterian's Dr. Oz estimates that 20% of patients with failing hearts, particularly those too old to receive transplants, may be good candidates for permanently implanted LVADs. The device in McKeon's lower chest connects to his heart's main pumping chamber, the left ventricle, via a short tube. Once enough blood flows through the tube to fill the LVAD's pump, sensors prompt its electric motor to rotate, pushing a pistonlike plate that propels the blood into the aorta, the main artery leading from the heart.
When McKeon heads home from the hospital in June, he will wear under his clothes a shoulder holster with two 1.5-pound rechargeable batteries that can power the pump for up to eight hours. The batteries are hooked to a wire leading through the abdominal wall. The only detectable sign that McKeon is wearing the device will be a faint swishing. "Sometimes I do a stage trick at medical meet- ings," says Dr. Oz. "I put an LVAD patient in the audience, and nobody notices he's wearing the device until I ask him to stand up."
Like most conjuring, Dr. Oz's trick was paid for in buckets of sweat and countless fumbles. No one knows the costs better than Victor Poirier, a 54-year-old mechanical engineer who led the development of Thermo Cardiosystems' LVAD and is now chief executive. After working 30 years on the project, he's thoroughly acquainted with the bitter taste of humble pie: "When we started in 1965, we didn't know anything about blood clotting and infections. The heart was just a pump. We were engineers and we knew how to make pumps."
It took 20 years of lab work before Poirier and his team were ready to implant its device in a human. They needed another decade of clinical trials before the FDA approved tests of long-term use. Forced back to the drawing board time after time, they once scrapped a major component after sinking ten years into it. After countless animal tests, they watched with dismay as the first few people hooked up to their prototype pump died on the operating table--surgeons initially used it only when patients were nearly dead. But they eventually showed they had what it took to mimic designs honed by three billion years of evolution.
The first requirement: Hire a dogged perfectionist like Poirier. Says David Gernes, an electrical engineer who joined the team in 1973: "Very often it was Vic's attitude that kept us going. He always believes there's got to be a way." Poirier proved it by spearheading more than a dozen patents. Among the most important was a pioneering way to make an artificial pump compatible with the body. The technique prevents life-threatening blood clots by encouraging cells to grow in a thin layer on the pump's inner surface.
But as Poirier and his crew labored in relative obscurity, Jarvik's team sprinted ahead to Promethean renown. A physician, Jarvik dismissed devices like Thermo's as the kind of Rube Goldberg contraption you'd expect from gear wonks. "Pure engineers have made very complicated pumps for artificial hearts," he told FORTUNE 15 years ago, before Clark's implantation. "My pump is very simple."
So simple that "it made my hair stand on end," recalls Poirier, a phlegmatic man with a walrus mustache and a vague air of long suffering. "For instance, it had aluminum parts. Aluminum dissolves in the body." An artificial heart, he adds, must beat 100,000 times a day for years, assailed by warm, salty blood, plastic-dissolving enzymes, and cells that try to clog it like algae in a stagnant pond.
Yet there was justice in Jarvik's jab. Poirier's employer at the time, Thermo Electron Corp., which later spun off the heart-pump company, had developed nuclear power sources for space probes in the 1960s. When awarded a National Institutes of Health grant to work on an artificial heart, Thermo's engineers figured that going nuclear was the only way to make a compact power source that would last for years--a strategy pushed by the late Edward Teller, a Thermo director and father of the H-bomb.
The result was like a prop from Dr. Strangelove: a pump driven by a miniature steam engine that drew heat from a lead-shielded kernel of plutonium. "It was the most complicated system you could think of," sighs Poirier. But it did work. Thermo even tested it in monkeys, then bred the animals to show that stray radiation wouldn't cause mutations. The idea was finally killed, mainly because of fears that terrorists would kidnap heart patients and use their plutonium to build bombs. Now Thermo's pumps are driven by either compressed air or an electric motor.
Poirier's team bogged down on other fronts. The stickiest problem was clotting--when implanted, most man-made materials instantly trigger the body's plug-the-dike routine. Patients who received the metal-and-plastic Jarvik-7 had to be kept on blood thinners to prevent clots, putting them at grave risk of fatal bleeding. They suffered strokes anyway, apparently because clots formed on pump surfaces, broke free, and lodged in their brains.
Thermo's team tried scores of materials and hundreds of designs, sometimes testing prototype pumps for years in saltwater tanks and in animals before discovering fatal flaws and starting over. Finally they found the right stuff for durability: titanium, a light, strong metal, for the pump's shell, and a polymer similar to the Lycra in garments for the lining. But blood clots continued to bedevil them until they figured out a way to co-opt the body's own metabolic machinery.
According to conventional wisdom, clots were best averted with ultraslick pump linings that would prevent blood from getting a toehold for coagulation. But some studies suggested cells in the blood might colonize a rough surface without clotting, forming a thin layer that would mimic the wondrously clot-resistant lining of arteries. Unfettered by medical orthodoxy, Thermo's engineers opted to pursue the rough approach while Jarvik and other rivals went slick.
At first, Thermo's bet seemed hopeless. Many of its prototype pump linings rapidly fell apart. When implanted in animals, they generated fibrous growths that could break free and kill. In desperation, the engineers invented a chopping tool to slice polymer strands into synthetic fuzz. Then they rigged up a kind of electric shotgun to fire the fuzz onto plastic targets in hopes of embedding it in patterns that would foster the desired cell layer. No luck. It took years to finally find a way: "pre-seeding" suedelike polymer surfaces with fast-growing cells just before implantation. The trick enabled the pumps to work for more than a year in animals without signs of clotting, paving the way for human tests.
Poirier credits his doggedness to his father, a French Canadian immigrant who settled in Lowell, Massachusetts, and continued to work as an upholsterer after a back injury left him partly paralyzed. In 1961 the younger Poirier, married at 19 and unable to afford college, went to work as a junior draftsman at Thermo. "It was an MIT spinoff with a lot of very bright people," he says. "I envied them. It made me want to be an engineer in the worst way." Badly enough, in fact, to slog through nine years of night school to get a bachelor's in engineering from unsnooty Northeastern University. Earning stripes at Thermo for pluck and ingenuity, he eventually was named to lead the LVAD project through the tricky clinical-testing phase.
While Poirier and his team were sweating the details in animal studies, Jarvik's setbacks caused added frustration. The Jarvik team had launched a $19 million public offering for its new company, Symbion. Later, when patients' ordeals on the Jarvik-7 caused a backlash, Thermo's pump was tarred too. Says Poirier, who soon after tried to raise money for clinical studies: "I'd get up at investor meetings and hear comments in the back like, 'Goddammit, not another artificial heart."' But after honing his speaking and business skills in an after-hours MBA program at Northeastern, he slowly eroded the skepticism with straight talk and promising data. Hammering on solvable problems helped distract him from one that wasn't: His teenage son died in 1982 after a two-year battle with brain cancer.
For years, Poirier went into surgery whenever his pump did. When a nonimplanted prototype was first used to support the heart of a patient near death, he watched in horror as it began to falter in the operating room. Quickly he figured out why: The pump was driven by a frigid gas, and the operating room's cool air was overloading the heat exchanger that prevented the device's valves from freezing. The surgery went on for hours; Poirier kept the pump alive by wrapping his hands around the ice-cold heat exchanger. But the patient died. Says O.H. Frazier, a surgeon who led clinical tests of the LVAD at the Texas Heart Institute in Houston: "We lost our first four patients on the pumps. From a medical standpoint, it was very tough. But when we took the pumps out, they always looked good."
Surgeons eventually began using the devices earlier--before widespread organ failure--and got promising results. By the late Eighties, Thermo's LVAD was regularly used in clinical tests as a so-called bridge-to-transplant. When the FDA approved it for that purpose in 1994, it became the first implanted heart pump widely available in the U.S. The agency also recently gave Thermo a green light for clinical trials of long-term take-home use in selected patients with no alternative--Francis McKeon is the first one. Doctors are eager to widen the use of LVADs because, in several cases, mortally ill patients who received them have made stunning recoveries. Given a chance to rest by the devices, their hearts regained so much pumping power that the LVADs could be removed.
Thermo hopes to sell at least 700 LVADs this year, at about $50,000 each. Health insurers aren't balking at the bill: Besides sparing lives, the pumps keep patients out of costly intensive care. But Thermo's edge may not last. Its main rival, Baxter Healthcare's Novacor unit, is seeking FDA approval for an LVAD it already sells commercially in Europe; seven patients in Europe and Japan now have the device permanently implanted. And the NIH recently launched a $27 million five-year program to develop improved LVADs for permanent use. The money is earmarked for six teams, including ones at Nimbus, Abiomed, Transicoil, and Whalen Biomedical. The NIH also is sponsoring three teams trying to develop total artificial hearts.
Thermo itself is off the NIH's fiscal life support as it mulls improved LVADs. Its profit more than tripled last year, to $7 million, on $21 million of sales, and its share price has risen more than 3,000%, to around $54, since its 1989 initial public offering. One prospect that may have investors excited: analysts' projections that the market for LVADs could ultimately grow to $3 billion a year.
But Poirier is still hunkered down--the only festive note in his spartan office is a spray of plastic flowers. Says he: "I'm sure we'll see lots of problems moving to long-term use. There will be strokes and infections. There will be malfunctions and pumps that break. We might wind up in court. But that's another obstacle I think we'll overcome."

Jonathan Spyer, Middle East Forum
An increasing body of evidence has begun pointing to a major shift in American foreign policy in the Middle East. Over the course of the Obama Administration's tenure, amid the turmoil of the Arab spring, the United States has shown itself unwilling to defend some of its traditional allies (such as the military in Egypt), or to stand by its own threats and red lines (such as punishing the Syrian regime for using chemical weapons); in many cases willing to cede significant influence to other outside powers (such as Russia); and to attempt to reach a nuclear agreement with Iran that is far more conciliatory to Iranian demands than had been the previous policy (such as allowing for uranium enrichment).
Much analysis and attention has been focused on the implications for Israel of these changes in American policy. But Israel is not the biggest loser in the region. On the contrary, Israel is far from isolated in the new Middle East. In fact, its more stable and western-oriented Arab neighbors seem to have more in common with the foreign policy perspective of the Jewish state than at any time in recent history.
Instead, those who have the most to lose are the oil-rich states of the Persian Gulf, especially Saudi Arabia. Control of the Gulf, which is vital to global energy supplies and thus the global economy as a whole, has been the linchpin of American policy in the Middle East for the last half-century. A strong alliance with the Arab monarchies that dominate the Gulf, fueled by credibility of American power, has been at the core of this policy, and this--American military credibility and steadfastness to longstanding foreign policy partnerships--is what appears to be eroding, and causing nothing short of alarm among Gulf leaders.
This, of course, is because of Iran. A central element of Iranian regional policy is expanding Tehran's sphere of influence into the Persian Gulf, throughout the Middle East, and across the Islamic world. At the moment, the US appears to be softening its approach to Iran, offering the easing of sanctions in exchange for a phantom slowing of the Iranian nuclear program, but without any Iranian concessions in terms of their support for terror or efforts to undermine neighboring regimes. As a result, the Arab states of the Gulf are now terrified at the prospect of abandonment, compounded by what they see as the Obama administration's questionable competence with regard to the Middle East.
There are currently strong indications that some Gulf countries, and Saudi Arabia in particular, have concluded that the Americans are indeed abandoning the region, or are fully unreliable at a minimum. As a result, these Gulf states are doing their best to assemble alternative alliances in order to meet the challenge. Other countries, such as Oman, appear ready to accommodate the new reality, placing themselves between the US and the Iranians in hopes of playing the role of power broker, while Qatar already appears to be moving away from the US and toward Iran. Clearly, major change is underway.
From the point of view of strategic analysis, prior to 2011 the Mideast looked like a dangerous but clearly demarcated place, with Arab states relying predominantly if not exclusively on US hegemony. The key challenge to the regional order was the attempt by a lose bloc of rouge states and movements led by Iran to challenge the US-led dispensation in the region, which had held sway since the collapse of the Soviet Union and the end of the Cold War.
The Iranians want to replace the Americans as the dominant force in the Gulf by cajoling or intimidating the energy-rich Arab monarchies of the area into moving away from reliance on the US and toward Iranian tutelage. In addition, they have ambitions of expanding their influence as far as the Mediterranean and the Levant. The latter goal only became conceivable when the US toppled Saddam Hussein, conveniently removing its primary obstacle.
Iran's long-standing alliance with Syrian dictator Bashar al-Assad, its creation and sponsorship of the Lebanese terrorist group Hezbollah, and its growing closeness to Iraq's post-Saddam Shia-dominated government has produced a contiguous line of pro-Tehran states stretching from Iran's western border to the Mediterranean Sea and, importantly, Israel's northern border. Essential to this strategy is the Iranian nuclear project, which is intended to be a kind of insurance policy against any determined action by Iran's regional or global rivals.
This dangerous but clear "cold war" situation has now given way to a far more complex and unstable map of conflicting interests. There is a single element, however, which has determined these changes: The decision by the United States to abandon its leadership position in a coalition of regional allies dedicated to challenging the pro-Iran bloc and the lesser (but still substantial) challenge of radical Sunni Islam.
This decision cannot be found in any public declaration by the Obama administration. But it is apparent in the practical policy moves made by Washington in a number of key areas over the last two years. These new policies have produced deep concern and, in some cases, a search for realignment among key members of the bloc formerly led by the US These key members are Israel, the military regime in Egypt, the Gulf monarchies, and Saudi Arabia. No single pattern of response has emerged among these countries. All are carefully weighing their options and drawing their own conclusions.
The US preference for seeking alternatives to its pre-2011 stance in the region has manifested itself in two areas: Its response to the "Arab spring" uprisings of 2011 and the subsequent rise of the Muslim Brotherhood, and what appears to be a willingness to leave Iran with everything it needs to make nuclear weapons, despite American's and President Obama's longtime promises.
The American decision to abandon Hosni Mubarak, who had been a loyal ally for thirty years, was the pivotal moment in the Arab Spring. The result of this decision was a chaotic year of Muslim Brotherhood rule, which was then ended by the return of military government in July 2013 after some thirty-million Egyptian citizens took the streets demanding change. General Abdel Fattah al-Sisi's removal of the Islamist radicals of the Muslim Brotherhood was not welcomed by the US administration. Other key members of what had been the US-led alliance, however, the popular as having averted the very bloodshed the US demanded Mubarak step aside to avert, and ended the disastrous rule of an Islamist regime in the Arab world's most populous country. While America had a hard time choosing between those states aligned with US policy and in step with the fight against al-Qaeda and Hezbollah terrorists, many in the region and closest to the calamity -- the Saudis, the Jordanians, the Emirates and the Israelis -- have good and close relations with the new military regime in Cairo.
The Gulf Arabs, and above all the Saudis, were deeply worried by what the American response on Egypt seemed to indicate. Washington's perception of its own interests appeared to have undergone a kind of paradigm shift, one that made future discussions regarding specific threats and opportunities deeply problematic: Allies like Mubarak would no longer benefit from their association with the US Enemies like the Muslim Brotherhood would no longer be punished.
The first indication of America's former regional allies' reaction to this shift was in 2011, when the Saudis hastily assembled a Gulf military coalition to crush an incipient Shia uprising in Bahrain. This indicated that, believing themselves rebuffed by the US, the Gulf states would now seek new alliances and show a greater willingness to take action on the basis of these new ad hoc alignments. Saudi efforts to support the Syrian rebels against Assad's pro-Iranian regime and to undermine Muslim Brotherhood-linked elements among the rebels in 2012 and 2013 were a further reflection of this new proactive stance.
Here, too, US absence was clearly a major factor. America's failure to swiftly declare itself in favor of the Syrian rebellion and assist the rebels left Turkey, Qatar, and Saudi Arabia as the rebellion's primary supporters, which led in turn to the takeover of the rebellion by Islamist and jihadi elements, as well as its subsequent divisions and dysfunctions. This sense of a lack of shared perceptions regarding Syria was compounded by America's failure to take military action against Assad in the summer of 2013, after it became clear that the regime had used chemical weapons against its own citizens. The Gulf states' primary concern was US credibility. In August 2012, President Obama had defined the use of chemical weapons by the regime as a "red line," but now appeared to be blithely disregarding this commitment.

A Newberry County deputy was struck by a vehicle Monday night while standing by at a traffic accident. The Newberry County Sheriff's Office was dispatched to a suspicious vehicle call at approximately 11:40 p.m. on Highway 395 near Mendenhall Road. When the deputy arrived, it was determined that the vehicle had struck a deer. As the officer was standing by at the accident, a green Mustang approached the scene, left the roadway, struck the deputy's patrol vehicle, and crossed a ditch toward the deputy. The deputy attempted to avoid the oncoming vehicle, but it still struck him on the leg. The deputy was treated and released from Newberry Hospital for minor injuries. The driver of the vehicle was identified as Tonya Dawn Crapps, 39, of Prosperity. She was charged with reckless driving by the South Carolina Highway Patrol. "This is another example of the many dangers that law enforcement officers face," said Sheriff Lee Foster. "This seemingly routine call could have turned deadly had it not been for the quick actions of the deputy to avoid the oncoming car. In a day and time where law enforcement seems to be scapegoat for all that is wrong with government, please remember that these men and women are doing their best to honorably serve and protect in extremely difficult circumstances."

Maharaj Charan Singh Ji was a spiritual teacher and the fourth Satguru of Radha Soami Satsang Beas (RSSB). He took over the leadership in 1951 after the untimely death of Sardar Bahadur Jagat Singh,who in turn, had taken over the leadership from Baba Sawan Singh three years earlier. Maharaj Charan Singh Ji led the mission for thirty-nine years. He taught that, because of our attachment to the mind and body, we have lost sight of our true self. By using the ancient mystical practices of Sant Mat and Surat Shabd Yoga we could be aligned with our higher selves. Today, the Radha Soami Satsang Beas (RSSB) organization is a global non-profit, charitable society with branches all over the world. Its mission is very clear; spread the spiritual knowledge of the group, carry out regular Satsangs / sermons, provide food and shelter for spiritual aspirants, publish relevant literature, and to support the running of a free hospital close to the head office in Bea, Punjab, India. After his death in 1990, he was succeeded by his nephew, Satguru Baba Gurinder Singh Ji.
Date of Birth: 02 Jan, 1916
Location: India
State: Punjab
Maharaj Charan Singh was born in 1916 in the Punjab, India. Little is known about his early life. What is known, is that he was an initiate of Baba Sawan Singh and that he had been appointed head of the Radha Soami Satsang Beas (RSSB) movement a few days before the death of Sardar Bahadur Jagat Singh in 1951. For over thirty-nine years he expanded the activities of the movement. He died on June 1st,1990, of a heart attack. Two days before his death, he named his nephew, Gurinder Singh Dhillon, as his successor. Today, Satguru Baba Gurinder Singh Ji is still the spiritual head of the RSSB.
Ministry: 1951 to 1990 [Started initiating in 1953]
Guru: Sawan Singh Ji
Successors: Gurinder Singh Ji
Center: Dera Baba Jaimal Singh, Beas

Strong winds rip porch roof off house in Lorain
LORAIN, Ohio - A line of strong storms that swept through northeastern Ohio Sunday night ripped the roof off a porch in Lorain.
It happened around 7:46 p.m. in the 4200 block of Tacoma Avenue.
The resident of the home told NewsChannel5 that he was in the house washing dishes when he heard a strong gust of winds. The resident said he went outside to find his porch roof on the ground.
It also appears the roof struck the side of the man's house, tearing off the power line box that was attached to his home.
No one was hurt.

AMC's "Breaking Bad" seems to have scored a bunch of new viewers over the break, while existing viewers also made sure to tune in.
The final season premiere episode "Blood Money" pulled in 5.9 million viewers, that's about double the drama series' previous record of 3 million viewers for the highest rated episode of last season.
Increasing hype, superb word of mouth, and the entire series so far being available on Netflix's Instant Watch for several months are big factors that have led to that jump in ratings.
Also one scene from the premiere, Badger's idea for "the goriest Star Trek episode ever", has already gone viral in both its original form and an animated interpretation of the monologue. There's no spoilers for the rest of the episode so it's safe for those holding off for a marathon viewing of the final season.

Fans of the Oregon Ducks football team breathed a sigh of relief earlier this month when head coach Chip Kelly decided to keep his job. One little fan decided he should share his thoughts directly with the coach and it got some help from a high profile Oregonian.
When asked how long he's liked the Ducks, Davis Simmons said, "Like for a year, like forever."
A year may seem like forever when you're only 5 years old, and Simmons has not been quiet about his love for the Ducks in the halls of his preschool.
"Most of his drawings since the time he was about 3 were Duck related," said Audree Waterhouse, his teacher. "And his favorite colors are green and yellow and black."
With that display of passion, it's easy to imagine his reaction when Kelly announced he was staying at the University of Oregon instead of leaving to be a head coach in the NFL.
"That morning, he came in saying 'Did you hear, did you hear Chip Kelly is staying?'" Waterhouse said.
"I really like him because he coaches good," Simmons said.
"So, I said how about we write down some words to Chip and see if we can write a letter to him," Waterhouse said.
Waterhouse wrote the words, but the thoughts were all Simmons.
"This is totally coming from his heart - just genuine and pure," Waterhouse said.
A response to such a letter may seem unlikely, but not when your preschool sits on the Nike campus and your teachers can get you a meeting with co-founder Phil Knight - a meeting captured by cell phone video.
"Dear Chip, we are glad you're staying at the University of Oregon," read Knight from the Simmons' letter during a meeting between him and the boy last week.
The video shows Knight reading the entire letter aloud from compliments like, "We are glad you are pretty happy. We love you," to the burning questions of the 5-year-old mind like, "Have you tried vanilla milk? It's really yummy and takes like milkshake."
You might think a little boy would be intimidated by the leader of a corporate giant, but that was not the case. Simmons could be heard correcting Knight when he mispronounced the name of his elf-on-the-shelf toy that was mentioned in the letter (The elf also apparently likes the Ducks.).
Knight took the correction in stride and even promised Simmons that he would deliver the letter to coach Kelly.
"It was amazing," said Waterhouse about the meeting. "It went from this innocent, writing down of some words and his feelings to getting to where it needs to go."
Simmons is still waiting to hear back from Kelly, but he said he knows the coach is busy recruiting and he's trying to remain patient.

Half of South Korean firms in Japan pessimistic about 2014
KOICHI KATO, Nikkei staff writer
SEOUL -- South Korean companies operating in Japan are painting a grim picture of business in 2014, expecting an unfavorable won-yen exchange rate to sour profits.
Half of such firms polled by the Korea International Trade Association in late January said the business climate will prove worse this year than in 2013. Only 21% expect an improvement, while 29% see this year shaping up much the same as last year.
The survey was based on responses from 30 manufacturing and 38 nonmanufacturing businesses.
Despite the preponderance of pessimists, however, only 9% of companies said they plan to scale back their operations in Japan.
The survey showed the won's strength to be the top cause for concern, with 61% of respondents naming it a negative factor. Japan-South Korea relations, fingered by 28%, was the second-biggest source of worry.
When firms were asked what exchange rate would be necessary to turn a profit, responses averaged 1,127 won to 100 yen. Many companies are having trouble remaining profitable at the current rate of 1,073 won to 100 yen.

True CRM and Outlook Integration
While many CRM solutions can interact with Microsoft Outlook, most do so almost as an afterthought. Instead of being built with Outlook in mind, these other CRM programs need an add-on to make it work, forcing sales teams to learn a new application in order to use Outlook.
True, integrated Outlook CRM is designed from the beginning to work 100% inside Microsoft Outlook. That means there's no need to purchase an expensive add-on or waste valuable time adapting to a new application.
With a CRM in Outlook, it's possible to process emails, retrieve customer contact information, log phone calls for future reference, manage secure workgroups, and anticipate opportunities. You and your team can see all customer activities at a glance to manage overall trends or zoom in to get detailed information on any given customer. It's also possible to share email history across an entire team and synchronize with mobile devices to provide up-to-the-minute notifications.
Unlike most CRM solutions available today, Prophet CRM for Outlook was built to work entirely inside Microsoft Outlook. Your team can benefit from all of these features right away using the software tools you already know and trust.
CRM Solution Features
The overarching purpose of any CRM solution is to make sure sales, marketing, and support efforts are all working toward a common goal. Several features combine to accomplish that task, including:
Contact Management
This most basic function of any CRM program allows the company to easily store and retrieve contact information, such as names, addresses, phone numbers, and email addresses, in a central database. The database also stores and tracks actual communication activities related to each contact, and more sophisticated systems share access with multiple people at the same company.
Sales Pipeline Management
Ultimately, businesses manage relationships with customers in order to secure more sales. This function makes it possible to track sales data including the raw number of sales, average deal size, average time deals stay in the pipeline before closing, and, most importantly, the percentage of deals that make it successfully through the pipeline. This is your lead-to-conversion ratio.
Customer Service Integration
Integrating customer service allows businesses to build even stronger relationships with customers both before and after sales are closed. In addition to providing easy access to customer contact information for customer service purposes, a good CRM solution can help manage subscription plans, integrate payment options, and accurately report data to customers.
Mobile Integration
Mobile devices make up an increasingly large percentage of Web traffic, making them key to effective customer relationship management. Sophisticated CRM solutions allow for mobile access and integrate iPhone and Android apps.
Predictive Analytics
By tracking so much customer data, CRM solutions make it possible to proactively take advantage of upcoming marketing and sale opportunities. Predictive analytics help businesses see those opportunities ahead of time and plan accordingly.
What is CRM Software?
Customer relationship management (CRM) software is a broad category of software designed to help businesses track customer data, access business information, automate marketing tasks, and provide customer support. Modern CRM software solutions are typically easy to scale and customize, allowing businesses to make on-the-fly adjustments to manage their growing and changing customer bases.
While businesses have always depended on building relationships with repeat customers, in the modern era, relationship management is a more complex task than ever. Companies interact with their customers in person, over the phone, and increasingly, on the Internet. A good CRM solution will provide the means for each individual customer to access one-on-one help and communicate directly with customer service staff. For customers, this leads to an improved experience; for businesses, that improved experience means greater customer retention and higher lifetime value.
CRM programs also allow businesses to automate many sales and marketing tasks for increased efficiency, manage and capitalize on opportunities to reach more customers, and generally integrate technology more fully into their marketing and customer service efforts.
For the most part, CRM solutions are designed with business-to-customer (B2C) interactions in mind, but they can also be used for business-to-business (B2B) interactions. Businesses can use CRM to manage contract wins, clients, sales leads, and business contacts.

Raw Image Salon's hair stylists snip and shape locks into alluring compositions while working closely with clients to ensure their new looks reflect their tastes and favorite Civil War generals. The salon, located near the Layton mall, also offers specialty hair treatments administered by certified stylists, such as Brazilian Blowouts using the Marcia Teixeira keratin treatment, which straightens curls and tames frizz for 10–12 weeks.
Inside Gossip Hair Salon, skilled stylist Kristen works to revamp hairstyles into trendy, feature-flatting forms. In addition to trimming back strands and enriching them with deep conditioning, she can work to curtail frizz and ease tight curls with Brazilian blowout straightening treatments.
The Le Belle Visage Day Spa staff utilizes the latest technology and naturally derived products to care for skin. They reveal fresher faces with several exfoliating procedures, including diamond-tip microdermabrasion, the ultrasonic DermaSound system, and a variety of chemical and enzyme peels. The staff carefully analyzes visages to recommend appropriate formulas from the Éminence organic skincare line, whose fruit-based and herbal ingredients are manually harvested at a solar- and wind-powered farm in Hungary.
Among the spa's 12 types of facials, the Quatre Mains (four hands) treatment provides an ideal combination of cleansing and relaxation: two hands perform a customized European facial and shadow-puppet version of The English Patient while two hands simultaneously massage the legs, feet, arms, and hands. Wood floors and antique-style furniture give the space an intimate and homelike ambiance.
Soundproof and lightproof, the smooth, curvy pods at InSPArations Float Spa let clients enjoy a few moments totally removed from the outside world. Gallons of warm water intermixed with Epsom salt fill the tanks, providing the highly buoyant, skin-temperature "bed" that simulates the sensation of floating. Sensory deprivation sessions have been shown to yield a range of benefits, such as increased concentration, better sleep, and reduced stress.
Indulge Spa & Salon's services cover beauty both inside and out. Staff members teach clients the Emotional Freedom Technique, a style of acupressure used to reduce negative emotions and vanquish pain; they also use red-light therapy to soothe bodily aches. But their treatments also include traditional spa-and-salon selections: tanning, collagen injections, and cellulite-reduction treatments round out the beauty offerings.

His name is Haralabos Voulgaris, he makes millions every year betting on basketball, and he might be the most knowledgeable basketball watcher in the world.
Voulgaris spends 80 hours every week during basketball season chasing after every possible bit of information in the basketball world, and has been doing this for over a decade. According to Business Insider, he has spent millions of dollars and hired a number of employees to be able to chart very specific details of every single game, such as the distance the responsible defender is from the shooter on every single shot, and then to plug this data into a complex simulation he has built to be able to suss out in great detail the affects of each individual player on team performance. The thought of a private citizen spending millions just to learn more about basketball may seem ridiculous, but this knowledge has paid off for him in a big way.
But don't let his complex charting and simulations fool you into thinking he's just a math/numbers guy. Bob (as many people know him) has probably watched more Basketball in the last ten years than any other person on the planet. Says Bob: "I watch about 400 games from beginning to end [per season]. I watch at least one or two quarters of maybe 85-90% of games. I may just watch every defensive possession or every offensive possession or just watch particular lineups or matchups." He's not just passively watching either, he's always looking for the effects of certain strategies and certain aspects of the performance of specific players. His betting decisions are informed as much by this more traditional knowledge as they are by his simulations.
I realize this effort is mostly futile. Bob is too much of an outsider to get serious consideration for this job at this time. He did take a break from his betting to work in a front office a few years ago, but quit after a year because of the enormous decrease in salary and the higher-ups failing to grasp his revolutionary approach. My hope by posting this is that more people catch on to what he is doing, and the people who make GM hiring decisions eventually realize what a gigantic asset he could be to an organization.
For more information about Haralabos Voulgaris, read the previously linked Business Insider article or read his random postings on twitter. I have no affiliation with Bob besides being a fan.

Gastroenterologists from Bowel Cancer Australia, including Dr Cameron Bell - Chair of the Colonoscopy Surveillance Working Group, have contributed to the NHMRC's Clinical Practice Guidelines for Surveillance Colonoscopy which are now available.
Dr Cameron Bell said the guidelines are intended for use by all practitioners and health workers who require information about surveillance colonoscopy - in adenoma follow-up, following curative resection of colorectal (bowel) cancer, and for cancer surveillance in inflammatory bowel disease.
These were most recently revised in 2005 and serve as a guide to clinicians in making decisions about the appropriate time to perform follow-up colonoscopy in patients with previous colonic polyps or bowel cancer. Such questions are of vital importance not only to the management of individual patients but also to the appropriate 'allocation' of the resource of colonoscopy within the Australian community.
'Surveillance' colonoscopies, namely those performed in people who have already had a bowel cancer or polyp detected, constitute a significant proportion of all colonoscopies performed each year in Australia and it is in everyone's best interests to have these procedures performed at appropriate intervals - that is, no more frequently than necessary and frequently enough to pick up any new polyps which have developed since the previous colonoscopy.
Clinical practice guidelines bring together the best available evidence to underpin scientifically valid recommendations for the prevention and diagnosis of cancer and treatment and care of patients. Previous guidelines developed by the Australian Cancer Network have been approved by the National Health and Medical Research Council.
NHMRC endorsed guidelines are revised in accordance with legislative requirements. All work with Guidelines promotes evidence as the basis of development. The aim of the current review is to incorporate the most up to date scientific information into the Guidelines.

We asked our contacts—some of those much-sung power brokers and other insiders—to nominate people whose drive, passion for work, and accomplishments, not their rank or title, made a difference this year. We looked for people at companies small and large throughout the tech sector.
We think most of the people on this list will feel they shouldn't be on it. Supportive bosses and helpful colleagues, they'll say, ought to get the recognition instead. But their coworkers nominated them for just that reason—these unsung heroes are the least likely to grab the credit they deserve.

....forgot to renew my domain.
Everything should be back up and running now.
I've had a rough week. Craziness at work combined with a brutal head cold has me absolutely spent.
I went to meet my new family doctor today. I had to be weighed.
I died a little when I saw the number.
...I died a lot.
I have a hate/hate relationship with the scale. Nothing about it is good for me.
I've been doing well with regards to healthy living. I eat well (kind of) and I exercise daily. I have a great resting heart rate. My blood pressure is perfect. My sugar levels are in check.
WHY WHY WHY am I hung up on that number I saw today?
I'm almost 30 lbs heavier than my lightest, but I'm over 70 lbs skinnier than my heaviest.
I guess it's not that bad when you think of it like that, right?
I'm going to continue to do what I do best: Eat well, and work hard.
That's what works for me.

Just when it seems that the story is over with Linus Omark, something new happens.
Earlier this season, the Oilers dealt Omark to the Buffalo Sabres in exchange for a conditional draft pick; if Omark played 15 games with the Sabres, Edmonton would get a sixth round selection in exchange. Just 13 games into his Buffalo career, however, Omark was placed on waivers and after being unclaimed assigned to the AHL.
Now it appears that Omark has refused that assignment. John Vogl of the Buffalo News reports that Omark wasn't present on Thursday when the Rochester Americans held their first post-All-Star break practice. That paper subsequently confirmed with Omark's agent Kevin Epp that the Swedish winger was not even in the United States, with Epp making it clear that there was a decided lack of clarity as to what happens next:
There's a chance [the Sabres] could assign him [to Europe]. There's a chance he'll still report to Rochester and a chance they'll have him back in Buffalo. Who knows right now? It's kind of up in the air.
As colleague Bruce McCurdy noted when Omark was waived, the winger's performance with the Sabres was decidedly underwhelming. Given that Buffalo is looking at having to give up a draft pick if Omark plays in the NHL, and given this latest refusal to report to the minors like a good soldier, Epp's comments about a potential NHL return sound like fantasy.
For all Omark's skill, his lack of size and occasional scoring droughts made him a fringe NHL'er, one of those 'AAAA' players who are a cut above the average minor-leaguer but not good enough to crack the majors for any length of time. He's been a fixture in the consciousness of those who follow the Oilers because he's laid waste to other good leagues, but in the end that wasn't enough. It might have been, if Omark had been so single-mindedly focused on playing in the NHL that he was willing to keep playing in the AHL until he got another break, but he's never been willing to do that. He took a long time overseas before coming to North America, then chose to head back across the Atlantic and most recently seems to have decided that he's done playing in the AHL. There's nothing wrong with that, and nothing wrong with making good money playing hockey in Europe; it just means that Omark's failures to make it as an NHL'er fall in large part on him not being willing to stick around long-term and fight for the job.
Where does Omark go next? Given his exceptional track record in top European leagues in Sweden, Russia and Switzerland, there seems likely to be a market for him overseas. It seems probable he finds a new team on the other side of the Atlantic, and even more probable that his last NHL opportunity is now in the rear-view mirror.

Shoulder Conditions
Distal Clavicle Osteolysis
Distal clavicle osteolysis is an unusual shoulder condition seen in young men, particularly weightlifters. The most common symptom is pain over the top of the shoulder joint.
Biceps Tendon Problems
The biceps tendon is a common cause of shoulder pain. The long head of the biceps tendon attaches within the shoulder joint, and a number of conditions can lead to the development of shoulder pain.
Shoulder Bursitis
There are many different problems that can lead to symptoms from inflammation of the bursa (bursitis); impingement is one of those conditions.
Labral Tear
A labral tear is an injury to the shoulder joint. There are several patterns of a torn labrum and the type of treatment depends on the specific injury. Most labral tears do not require surgery, but there are certain situations where surgery may be recommended for a torn labrum.
Floating Shoulder
A floating shoulder is an injury pattern characterized by a clavicle fracture and a fracture of the scapula. These injuries cause a free floating shoulder and can lead to neurovascular problems.
Broken Collarbone
A broken collarbone is a break in the clavicle, the bone in your upper chest that connects your breast bone (sternum) to part of your shoulder blade (scapula).
SLAP Tear
The SLAP (Superior Labrum Anterior-Posterior) lesion of the shoulder is a type of labral tear. The most common cause is a fall onto an outstretched hand.
Biceps Tendon Rupture
A proximal biceps tendon rupture occurs when the tendon of the biceps muscle ruptures at the shoulder joint. This may cause pain and a lump in the arm, but seldom requires surgery.
Shoulder Fractures
Broken bones around the shoulder joint are common. A shoulder fracture may refer to injury of one of three bones; here you can learn about treatments.

Windows XP SP3
I am making some little own project. I have files and folders in my program, and I want to drag & drop those files from my own software to other programs.
I get drag & drop working to other programs, but not into Nokia's file manager (Nokia Phone Browser). My drag & drop works even to PC Suite. I also noted, that other programs also fails drag & drop to Nokia's file manager (for example, filezilla, ftp-client... and svn programs ...). However, Drag & Drop seems to work from explorer to Nokia's file manager.
I am using normal drag & drop OLE componets for this (IDataObject, IDropSource and IEnumFORMATETC), but I do use only HDROP as data structure. Should I use other data structures for drag & drop too? as I know, HDROP is the only important structure for drag & drop, so it should be enough, but I would like to know, what are those data structures that Nokia file manager requires during drag & drop.
All those non-working programs sends only HDROP.

There is very little doubt that the tablet PC is extremely popular. Otherwise known as Ultra-Mobile Devices (UMDs), a new report shows that 37 million UMDs will ship into the United States by the end of this year. The expected revenue from UMD shipments through 2015 is expected to top a whopping $24 billion. These numbers show just how much the computer buying public is shifting away from buying desktop and even laptop PCs.
UMDs are actually not just tablet PCs but are actually four different kinds of mobile devices. The UMDs are composed of ultra-mobile PCs, mobile internet devices, netbooks, and tablets. This new report shows that even among UMDs, tablets are selling at a much faster rate than anything else is. A whopping 75 percent of UMDs that sell in 2011 will be tablets according to the report. Of course, the main reason that the tablet is so popular these days is that it is the newest device in the UMD field. Now the tablet is what most PC makers are focusing on thanks in large part to the iPad and iPad 2.
While Apple's (News - Alert) tablets have been the most popular in the genre, plenty of other companies have also been working hard on their own tablets. While most tablets that do not bare the Apple name employ anAndroid OS, there have been a couple of tablets that have tried to go it alone with very mixed results. The introduction of the Amazon Kindle Fire tablet is only going to stir the pot even more when it comes to UMD sales when it finally becomes available during the holiday season.
This particular report also points to the fact that at some point, there will be a UMD that is even more popular than the tablet PC. In 2010, the Netbook was incredibly popular as well with around 9.9 million units being shipped that year. Since the tablets have come out the netbooks have steadily lost their popularity. The Google (News - Alert) Chrome has shifted a little bit of interest back to this form of UMD but for now, tablets are king of the hill.

Lancashire Schools FA Girls U16s team have advanced to the quarter finals of the ESFA Inter Counties National Cup and the final of the Northern Counties competition after storming back to beat Northumberland.

ESFA England International Natasha Fenton drilled home a splendid free kick to pull one back and an unfortunate own goal saw the Red Roses draw level.
But there was no stopping the talented county team and it was 4-2 by half time as Blackpool's Georgia Lambe finished clinically twice after the half hour mark to put Lancashire in command.
The second half saw Lancashire up the tempo and some great football allowed West Lancashire's Alice Adams to grab a quick fire hat-trick and Blackburn with Darwen's Alicia Johnson ended the game with a super strike.
Other local girls in the side were: Girls in the squad from East Lancashire are: Katie Maher (Ribble Valley), Katie Samuels (Blackburn with Darwen), Neeve Hulton (Blackburn with Darwen), Alicia Johnson (Blackburn with Darwen).
Lancashire now face a tough away trip to Nottinghamshire in the National Cup in February and a Northern Counties Final away to local rivals Greater Manchester later in the year.
The County Schools U14s girls side have been drawn away to Surrey in the ESFA National Cup semi final – a competition they won at Sheffield Wednesday's Hillsbrough Stadium last season.
n Lancashire U16s: Meghan Pope (Blackpool), Emma Hickson (Blackpool), Thea Mallett (Preston), Neeve Hulton, Jessica Riley (both Blackburn and Darwen), Katie Samuels (Hyndburn and Ribble Valley), Natasha Fenton (Blackpool), Sasha Rowe (West Lancs), Sarah Chadwick (South Ribble), Georgia Lambe (Blackpool), Mayumi Gillam (W Lancs), Ciara Boylan (South Ribble), Katie Maher (Hyndburn and Ribble Valley), Alicia Johnson (Blackburn with Darwen), Olivia Askam (Preston), Alice Adams (W Lancs).
