Flood flows work to other ORs
St. B expects it will be weeks before a return to normal
A flood Wednesday morning that closed all 14 operating rooms at St. Boniface General Hospital is creating a cascade effect in the health-care system.
Dozens of surgeries have already been cancelled or postponed and patients are being re-booked at other city hospitals.
It will take weeks to get flooded operating rooms back up and running, the Winnipeg Regional Health Authority's top medical official said Thursday.
"I don't think this is a situation that will be resolved in days. I think it's more likely to be measured in weeks," said Dr. Brock Wright, vice-president of clinical services and chief medical officer for the WRHA.
"This is a very significant event, to have all 14 operating rooms at St. Boniface out of commission. All of the surgeries in those 14 rooms have been cancelled for now," he said Thursday during a press conference at the WRHA headquarters on Main Street.
"I do want to reassure the public we have the situation very much under control."
St. Boniface's emergency department and in-patient and out-patient services are still open.
-- Dr. Brock Wright, chief medical officer for the WRHA
Dozens of surgeries have already been postponed at St. Boniface, as well as elective cases at Health Sciences Centre and Grace Hospital, the two hospitals now handling the bulk of the St. Boniface load.
Some patients may be moved back to St. Boniface to recuperate after surgery.
An extra ambulance has been added to the system to accommodate transfers.
Patients can expect dozens more surgeries to be shifted.
"We really appreciate the impact cancelling elective surgeries can have on patients and their families. We are doing everything possible to minimize the number of elective surgeries we have to cancel, and we will work very hard, once the situation improves, to re-book those surgeries as quickly as possible," Wright said, adding he couldn't recall anything like this ever happening before in Winnipeg.
"It is a serious issue. St. Boniface is the second-largest hospital in the province and it's one of two tertiary care hospitals, so to have all the ORs out of commission is a significant event," Wright said.
Two unrelated mechanical glitches happened just before the flooding started and one of the two caused the mess.
At about 6:30 a.m. Wednesday, the first glitch surfaced when the air-handling system went down during a routine test of the hospital's backup generator system.
Wright said as far as he knew, there were no reports of power outages at the time that could have contributed to the air-ventilation malfunction or the next thing that happened.
That's when the water-circulation pumps malfunctioned. Some of the coils burst, leaking water into the ORs.
Then some of those coils froze and cracked.
"That resulted later in the morning in water leaking through the ceilings of some but not all the 14 operating rooms. We don't believe the water leakage was in any way related to the cold weather. It was related to the failure of circulating pumps," Wright said.
There is no estimate yet on the cost of repairs, he said.
Only two surgeries were underway when the pipes burst. One involved plastic surgery and the other a cardiac case.
Neither surgery was in the rooms that had water pouring through the ceilings. The plastic surgery was finished and the cardiac case had just started. The cardiac patient was transferred to Health Sciences Centre, where the surgery was performed. The patient is recovering.
Two emergency surgeries Wednesday were transferred to Grace Hospital.
Over the coming days, surgeons will be checking caseloads and deciding which ones will go ahead and where they will be performed.
"Every day until this situation is resolved, anesthesiology and surgery leadership are meeting and deciding what surgeries they'll cancel the next day. We're taking it day by day," Wright said. "We're not cancelling cases far into the future at this point."
Wright said the city's surgical offices are calling patients whose cases are moved or postponed.
Some elective surgeries at other hospitals are being postponed to make room for surgeries from St. Boniface.
Some of St. Boniface's caseload, however, is staying put.
Babies will still be born there and C-sections are still being performed, but only because the OR facilities for obstetrics are located in another part of the hospital.
Some cardiac procedures that aren't done in an operating room, such as angioplasties, will also continue at St. Boniface.

NEW YORK, January 16, 2013 /PRNewswire/ --
How has Motorola been keeping up in the government and enterprise segments? Will economies of scale continue to buoy margins as the company seeks to roll out its new mPOS product line?
With only two years of operating independently, Motorola Solutions (NYSE: MSI) [Full Research Report][(1)] retains its position as a market leader in its core markets, namely public safety government agencies and commercial enterprises. Motorola is continuing its focus on both infrastructure and applications, while looking forward to expand task-specific mobile computing devices for enterprises.
For additional due diligence beyond the scope of this article, read our full featured research report on Motorola Solutions including full detailed breakdown, technical analysis, analyst ratings and price targets - absolutely free of charge - available at: [http://www.nationaltradersassociation.org/r/read_report/6e7e_MSI].
Motorola Solutions has recently teamed up with Best Buy Canada and Future Shop, Canada's first electronic retailers to roll out fully integrated, enterprise mobile point of sale (mPOS) solutions. Both retailers announced that the implementation of the tablet-based mPOS technology has improved their customer service and staff productivity at a number of stores.
Best Buy Canada and Future Shop are leveraging new mPOS applications coupled with devices, such as Motorola Solutions' ET1 Enterprise Tablet, to empower their staff in helping customers have a more convenient shopping experience. With the help of Motorola Solutions' innovations, associates can handle more tasks, manage purchase transactions from anywhere in the store, and leverage omni-channel retail strategies like having out-of-stock items shipped to the customers' homes or stores.
Along with the ET1, Best Buy and Future Shop stores also use many other Motorola Solutions technology, including MC40 mobile computer and MPM-100 Bluetooth mobile payment module, to drive their mPOS strategy.
Here's what Girish Rishi, senior vice president of the Enterprise Solutions of Motorola Solutions, has to say about the mPOS trend:
"Allowing an associate to stay by a customer's side and answer questions, order out-of-stock merchandise for direct delivery, and reinforce his or her purchasing decision increases the likelihood of closing that sale. The new level of responsiveness mPOS delivers makes the shopping experience more personal and interactive. By eliminating the walk to the register, mPOS solutions can help save sales and build brand loyalty."
In their government segment, Motorola Solutions dominates the market with greater than 50% share in public safety radio handsets, infrastructure, software, and services.
Last month, Motorola Solutions received an iF product design award for its MOTOTRBO SL Series digital two-way radio and the LEX 700 mission-critical handheld. These products were selected from more than 3,000 entries for their outstanding design. Motorola Solutions has also been awarded the 2012 North America City Surveillance Partner of the Year by Axis Channel Convergence Conference for providing real-time video intelligence (RTVI) for public safety agencies.
"We are pleased to be working with a world-class organization such as Motorola Solutions in the city surveillance space, a segment where high-quality, reliable IP video is absolutely critical for law enforcement and government agencies. Their expertise and experience working with law enforcement uniquely positions them as a partner that can deliver Axis' solutions to provide a safer city environment for everyone." - Scott Dun, director, Business Development, Axis Communications, Inc.
Motorola Solutions' cost advantage is due to its decades of market share leadership (combining years with its predecessor, Motorola Inc.). Sustained market leadership gives the company the greatest share of the accumulated experience in the communications equipment and greatest benefit from the experience curve. Motorola Solutions is able to lead in innovation, price competitively across product and service tiers, and still generate attractive returns.
Motorola Solutions' strength can be seen in its revenue growth, earning per share, increase in net income, return on equity, and solid stock price performance. These strengths offset the company's weak operating cash flow.
With the achievements and awards that Motorola has been receiving, it has never failed to introduce innovations to the public safety and enterprise segment - products that are ground breaking both in form and function. Technology is always moving forward and Motorola has a history of leading the way.

Fourth Monkey are an up and coming young theatre company, with an autumn tour of 'A Clockwork Orange' set to hit venues around the UK and London, including the Old Vic Tunnels and the Southwark Playhouse in October. We are also embarking on a training course for 54 young actors, beginning in September.
To initiate this exciting and bold year, we are looking to hold a launch party in an underground, grungy venue to fit the mood of our work and the party itself. We have various contemporary performance artists, bands and DJs booked in to complement this off-beat vibe, not to mention our resident set and lighting-designers who will utilise the space to complete the urban environment.
With our mailing-list of 500+ people and the 10,000 young actors we have already contacted (in regards to the course and party), we are confident of hosting 400-500 people to guarantee a live and memorable night.

Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas said Sunday night that the
Palestinians "are not trying to isolate Israel by attempting to achieve
UN recognition of a Palestinian state," the Jordanian Petra News Agency
response to US President Barack Obama's speech
before AIPAC, Abbas told Jordanian Prime Minister Marouf al-Bakhit
during a meeting that in fact, "the Palestinian Authority is asking for
the recognition of Palestine as an occupied state."RELATED:'State must be able to defend itself against any threat'Comment: Obama's failure to internalize Palestinian intolerance PM: Disagreement with Obama blown out of proportionObama's sour notes in Israel are music to Europeans Abbas, who is visiting Jordan, defended Hamas during his conversation
with the Jordanian prime minister and said that the organization is
"part of the Palestinian society," according to the Jordanian news
agency. Hamas also reacted on Sunday to Obama's speech and rejected his call to recognize
Israel and accused him of being biased in favor of Israel.Hamas also urged the
Palestinian Authority to reconsider its policies toward the Middle East
peace process, saying there was no point in relying on the US as an
honest broker.The PA, in contrast, did not respond by late Sunday to Obama's address to AIPAC.Hamas
spokesman Ismail Radwan said that in light of Obama's new speech, the
PA should reconsider its position toward the peace process and increase
efforts to achieve national unity."Obama's speech is a disaster
to all those who have been bidding on US policies and positions," Radwan
said. "We reject such statements which prove that the Americans are
completely biased in favor of occupation at the expense of Palestinian
rights."The Hamas spokesman strongly condemned the Obama
Administration for "supporting the security of the Zionists and ignoring
Palestinian rights."Radwan said that it has become obvious now
that the Obama Administration is not talking about the 1967 lines or a
Palestinian state. "What they are doing now is deception," he said in
reference to Obama's speech at the AIPAC conference.Another Hamas spokesman on Sunday also commented on Obama's speech saying it will not force Hamas to recognize Israel.Obama
explicitly referenced the need for Hamas to adhere to the Quartet
principles after it recently entered into a Palestinian national unity
government, whose formation he called "an enormous obstacle to peace.""No
country can be expected to negotiate with a terrorist organization
sworn to its destruction," Obama said to cheers from the more than
10,000 AIPAC activists filling the massive convention center hall. "We
will continue to demand that Hamas accept the basic responsibilities of
peace, including recognizing Israel's right to exist and rejecting
violence and adhering to all existing agreements."In response,
spokesman Sami Abu Zuhri was quoted as saying by Ma'an that, "The US
administration will fail, just as all others have in the past, in
forcing Hamas to recognize the occupation," and that Obama's speech
showed the US was "not a friend to the people of the region."The Hamas spokesman added that Obama's continued support of Israel
signaled that the US was biased, and would "support the occupation at
the expense of the freedom of the Palestinian people," Ma'an quoted him
as saying.He accused Obama of denying the right for Palestinians to have an
independent state, referring to the US president's comments that "No
vote at the United Nations will ever create an independent Palestinian
state."Khaled Abu Toameh contributed to this report.

Sam Wallace: Aston Villa owner Randy Lerner must be ready to dig deep to insure admirable youth policy
Takling Football: A reliance on youth has to be fortified at some point by investment
Sam Wallace
Sam Wallace is Football Correspondent for The Independent.
Sunday 28 October 2012
The 30th anniversary of Aston Villa's 1982 European Cup final triumph passed without fanfare in May. Falling on the day of Roy Hodgson's first game as England manager there was not much room in the newspapers for the memories of Rotterdam. Strangely, of those six glorious years of consecutive wins in the competition for English clubs, it is 1982 that, outside Villa Park, tends to get overlooked.
They were once European champions, the team who this morning sit 17th in the Premier League. They have not fallen nearly as far as fellow former conquerors of Europe, Nottingham Forest, but whenever a cloud hangs over Aston Villa, as it does now, you find yourself asking the same question: where do Villa belong in the grand scheme of things?
They have won seven league championships, which places them a very respectable fifth on the all-time list behind Manchester United, Liverpool, Arsenal and Everton. True, their first six were between 1894 and 1910 but they all count. Seven league championships is as many as Chelsea and Manchester City have won combined.
As it stands, Villa have a billionaire owner who has invested more than £200m since 2006 and seems reluctant to keep coming to the table. They have a £24m centre-forward on the bench. It was telling that a draw at home to 16th-placed Norwich City on Saturday was regarded as disappointing but, frankly not as bad as it could have been for a team now considered relegation candidates.
The change at Villa under the ownership of Randy Lerner since the last of three sixth-place finishes under Martin O'Neill, encompassing the Gérard Houllier and Alex McLeish reigns which did not work out for different reasons; the sale of players such as Gareth Barry, Ashley Young and James Milner; and, most recently the appointment of Paul Lambert, has brought the club to an interesting fork in its history.
The strategy now is a team built on young players from the academy, signings from the Football League and the occasional acquisition from "selling" European leagues such as the Netherlands (Ron Vlaar, Karim El Ahmadi) and Belgium (Christian Benteke). It has been the worst start to a league campaign in 43 years but let us leave the relegation anxiety aside for a moment.
As a principle, Villa's promotion of young academy players is to be greatly admired. Yes, it is taking a while to see the results – and there are no guarantees – but goodness knows, we have despaired enough times at clubs who block the route of their youngsters with mediocre signings.
The average age of Saturday's Villa team was young – 24 years and four months, with three academy graduates in the first XI and a further three on the bench. Younger than Norwich (average: 26 years, six months) and younger than the Arsenal side on Saturday (average: 26), a club traditionally thought of as fielding young teams. The champions Manchester City's team average 25 years and 10 months.
Another three in Saturday's first XI, Joe Bennett, Matt Lowton and Fabian Delph, were bought from Football League clubs, so too substitute Ashley Westwood. If fashioning consistently good sides with young players and cheap signings was easy, let's face it, everyone would be doing it. That is no reason not to try – and good luck to Villa – but let us imagine one step further down the line.
Imagine that the likes of Chris Herd, Marc Albrighton, Ciaran Clark, Eric Lichaj and Andreas Wiemann do flourish into a generation of players capable of holding their own in the Premier League. Imagine that Lambert turns this raw side of academy boys and Football League recruits into a decent top 10 force in the division. What then?
There is a principle in modern football that so many club owners and chairmen ignore when they reach for the utopian possibility of "youth". It is the principle that says you can be in danger of losing them just about as quickly as you produce them.
Take the example of Manchester City and Shaun Wright-Phillips. The sense of deflation at the club when he changed his mind more or less overnight and signed for Chelsea in 2005 will always resonate with me. Here was a player who had been rejected by Forest and, nurtured by City, became an England international. Chelsea signed him as a squad player simply because, well, they could.
Fast-forward seven years and the hundreds of millions that Sheikh Mansour has poured into City do not simply buy the likes of Sergio Aguero and Yaya Touré, they also insure City against losing the next great prospect who comes through their youth system (notwithstanding a contract refusenik like Daniel Sturridge). The top clubs, the wealthiest clubs, do not lose their best young players. The top clubs sign others' best young players.
For Villa, a reliance on youth has to be fortified at some point by investment, even if it is not at the level that Mansour has afforded City. Villa have outperformed many wealthier clubs in their academy and it is wonderful that so many have been given a chance. Of the next generation, the likes of Dan Crowley and Jack Grealish are rated as two outstanding prospects. But they cannot allow themselves to be too vulnerable to predators.
Villa will be under no illusions that producing the players alone will be hard, never mind keeping them. History suggests that the natural ebb and flow of talent through a club over the years mean that keeping up a steady supply of players ready to step up to the first team is extremely hard, however dedicated your academy coaches.
Yet even if Lerner seems to have hit on this new strategy as a cheaper alternative to his original it is one of the boldest experiments by an established top 10 club in years. At some point, it he is serious, Lerner will have to bolster it with some more investment but if it is even moderately successful then the modern Villa will have an identity as strong as any other.
Van der Meyde's exploits no match for Neville
Given that Andy Van der Meyde has a daughter named "Purple", perhaps we should not be too surprised at the revelations in his new autobiography that he played at Everton while indulging in a fairly comprehensive cocaine and booze habit. He says he also had a relationship with a "Liverpool stripper" (his description) but that is a whole different story.
In his book, Van der Meyde also derides the career of Phil Neville, whom he describes as "a snitch" and "a complete joke". Neville is still captaining a Premier League team at the age of 35. Van der Meyde is flogging a story of stealing prescription pills and wrecking his career. If Van der Meyde considers that the better alternative, one imagines Neville thinks his old team-mate is welcome to it.

New Apple TV device, controller hints found in iOS 7
A reference to new Apple TV hardware has been discovered in iOS 7. The reference is to "AppleTV4,1," which would be a new Apple TV, as the current Apple TV is referenced internally as "AppleTV3,2." Though the reference has reportedly been in iOS since iOS 7.0's release in September, it was only found recently by developer Hamza Sood. Given that the model is shown as part of the existing Apple TV family, it's likely that the new device will remain a set-top box, with upgraded internal components. The report also notes that new Apple TV software builds make references to iOS 7's Game Controller framework, suggesting that some game controllers could connect to Apple TV. It's been reported that Apple has been testing new versions of Apple TV. We previously reported that a coming Apple TV update would add downloadable game support to the platform. [via 9to5Mac]

The St. Marys Area Lady Dutch soccer team handed the Kane Lady Wolves a 3-0 setback Thursday afternoon at the SMAHS soccer field.
The Lady Dutch took a 2-0 first half lead. They added another goal early in the second half.
"Overall we played a good possession game today," said St. Marys coach Eric Bridges.
"Our reserves played aggressively and helped us to keep possession of the ball," said Bridges.
"Kane impressed me with their 80 minutes of play. We were forced to fight hard for the 50/50 balls," added Bridges.
The Coudersport Falcons came to town on Thursday afternoon and handed the Kane boysŌĆÖ soccer team a 3-0 loss on the WolvesŌĆÖ home field. Coach Ernie ChamberlainŌĆÖs Wolves played well, but just couldnŌĆÖt find the back of the net despite more than a dozen shots on goal.
KaneŌĆÖs best chance of scoring early on came when goalie Michael Butterfield made a save and punted the ball way downfield where teammate Chris Cummings caught up to it and redirected it towards the goal. Falcons goalie Michael Chambers batted it away and scooped up the rebound before Cummings could knock it home.
The Elk County Catholic Crusader golf team defeated the visiting Kane Wolves by a score of 205-218 on Wednesday afternoon in a match played at the Leaning Pines Public Golf Course.
ECC's Jeffrey Wehler and Kane's Trace Gordon were co-medalists with rounds of 38.
Mitchell Struble shot a 40 for the Crusaders, while teammate Drew Meyer was a stroke back with a 41, followed by Jonah Meyer with a 42. Ryan Newton's 44 was the final score to count toward the team's total.
The Kane Cross Country team has been making steady improvement as the runners move into the final month of the season. The Wolves traveled to New Jersey over the weekend to take part in the Six Flags Wild Safari Invitational and the Kane boys left with a fifth place finish out of 25 teams - KaneŌĆÖs highest ever.
The St. Marys Area Lady Dutch volleyball squad won their third straight match last night as they defeated the Kane Lady Wolves by a 3-1 score.
St. Marys won the first set by a 25-9 score. They took the second set 25-10. Kane won the third set by a 26-24 score. The Lady Dutch won the match by taking the third set 25-17.
Lena Hanes led the Lady Dutch with 16 service points. Emily Lezak had 12 and Brittney Tarle had nine. Tarle and Keara Shrefler each had four kills while Lezak and Hanes each had three.
The Kane girlsŌĆÖ soccer team dug themselves a big hole early as they gave up two goals in the first five minutes of Monday afternoonŌĆÖs game with Port Allegany on the Lady WolvesŌĆÖ home field. The Lady Gators took the opening kick and somehow found the back of the net in just 10 secondsŌĆ" before most fans were even in their seats. The visitors added another just five minutes after before Kane coach Robert MosierŌĆÖs team began to settle down.
The Kane junior varsity football team exacted a measure of revenge on Monday night when they defeated Ridgway 28-14 at Paul R Miller Stadium. After the varsity Elkers outlasted the Wolves on Friday night in Ridgway, the junior varsity teams strapped on the helmets and played in Kane to start the WolvesŌĆÖ homecoming week.
The visitors struck first when Josh Raubenstrauch ran in for a 10-yard touchdown after an interception by James Winslow stalled KaneŌĆÖs promising opening drive. The failed extra point gave Ridgway a 6-0 lead with just over five minutes left in the first quarter.
With two equally-matched and undefeated teams facing off, it was only fitting one play and less than one yard would decide the winner.
Ridgway stopped a John English run on a two-point conversion with 41 seconds left in the fourth quarter to give the Elkers a 21-20 win over the Kane Wolves Friday night at Memorial Field in Ridgway in the AML South opener for both teams.
Something has got to give. The Kane Wolves and Ridgway Elkers come into tonightŌĆÖs football game in Ridgway with identical 4-0 records. Both have had games this season where they have completely dominated the competition. Only one can leave the field tonight 5-0.
Kane girlsŌĆÖ soccer coach Robert Mosier thought his team would show the Ridgway Lady Elkers how much they have improved since the two teams first meeting, KaneŌĆÖs first game of the season. Unfortunately for the Lady Wolves, the result was pretty much the same. Ridgway defeated the Kane girls 8-1 back on Sept. 8 on the Lady Elkers' home field. On Wednesday afternoon, the Lady Wolves hosted coach Greg MaddalenaŌĆÖs team and jumped out to a 7-0 lead before Terika Schleicher booted a goal to prevent the shutout.

Among container Carriers, Maersk Line currently has the largest number of vessels idle.
A report by shipping analyst Alphaliner (Vol. 2012, Issue 46) reveals Maersk Line as the carrier with most vessels idled, currently 14 units with an aggregate capacity of 94,000 TEU.
This development spearheads a recent surge in idling across the industry. "The idle containership fleet of above 500 TEU have swelled by 96,000 TEU in the last fortnight to reach 762,000 TEU or 4.7% of the current cellular fleet as at 5 November," states the newsletter.
"24 units of above 5,000 TEU are currently idle," says Alphaliner, "compared to only two such units in early September." The share of idle fleet for shipping companies has increased to 35%, compared to only 15% in September, states the report.
Erik Rabjerg Nielsen, Maersk Line's Head of Scheduling and Deployment, explains that "the primary reason for the latest surge in idling is the removal of the AE9 service from the Far East to Europe, currently on hold until at least the end of November. 10 vessels have been pushed out from here."
"We are continuously managing our capacity to meet market demands," he says. "Especially on Asia-Europe we are adjusting down to ensure that we have a cost-efficient network which enables us to serve our customers in a competitive manner."
This echoes comments made by A.P. Moller - Maersk Group CEO Niels Smedegard Andersen in connection with the third quarter financial results.
"If you can't fill your vessels, of couse it is better to reduce your capacity. At least you save the cost. It is much better than going out in rate decreases," he said on 9 November. "We have pulled quite a bit of market capacity out, so we definitely feel that we have done our share, having seen good results from it and now we expect others to behave responsibly as well."
In the toolbox for capacity management are several options for handling redundant vessels, Erik explains. "We can keep them om standby if we want to be able to deploy them again quickly. We can return leased vessels to their owners; we have done this for 71 vessels during the last few months. We can re-let them to other carriers who have needs for them. And finally we can idle vessels, realising substantial cost savings on daily running expenses."

Orlando, Florida...
I made this fabric out of a 97% cotton 3% spandex woven fabric in black with white polkadots. I took the halter out of a simplicity pattern although I had to make a few changes to make it fit better. I draped the skirt. The first one I made didn't include the red piping and it looked really dull – so I made new one with red piping! I'm so happy with how it came out. It's also very comfortable and will fit a few shapes because the spandex molds to the body.

GREENVILLE — The former executive director of the South Delta Regional Housing Authority has reported to a federal prison in Illinois to begin a 32-month prison sentence for embezzlement.
The Delta Democrat Times reports U.S. District Court Judge Glen H. Davidson denied a request from Ann Jefferson that she remain free on bond while her appeal is pending.
Authorities say Jefferson converted money from several housing authority accounts to her own use. She also was accused of retaliating against three witnesses.
She was convicted in March of two counts of embezzlement, two counts of obstruction of justice and three counts of witness intimidation.
In addition to her prison sentence, Jefferson was ordered to serve three years of supervised probation and pay more than $41,000 in restitution.
