VectorUSA, a premier technology integrator focused on offering unified voice, video and data network services, announced today it has opened a new office in Pleasanton, California, purchased a building and opened a larger office in Phoenix, and moved its Harrisburg, Pennsylvania office to a larger facility in Lancaster. Significant revenue growth in 2013 and growth in the markets VectorUSA serves have fueled this expansion.
"Our office expansion reflects VectorUSA's strategy of serving markets where we believe there is opportunity for growth, in both large markets such as Los Angeles and the San Francisco Bay Area, as well as mid-sized markets such as central Pennsylvania," said Robert Messinger, executive vice president of Sales and Operations for VectorUSA. "It also results from an expansion of the services we provide, such as mobile infrastructure and managed network services."
VectorUSA designs and implements unified voice, video and data networks to help organizations of all sizes better utilize these converged technologies to meet critical business and organizational objectives. The company primarily serves the K-12 education, healthcare, medium- and enterprise business, ports and terminals, and federal, state and local government markets.
The new Pleasanton office will give VectorUSA a permanent presence in Northern California. The company has worked with several customers in the Bay Area for the past decade and many of its strategic partners are located in the area.
VectorUSA's new office in Phoenix is part of a 13,000 sq. ft. building the company has purchased. The VectorUSA Phoenix office has enjoyed significant success in the last few years; it has become a preferred technology provider to several Phoenix area and state, county and local governments, as well as to organizations such as the Mohave Educational Services Cooperative, a nonprofit corporation that empowers Arizona schools, cities and counties to save time and money by providing cooperative contracts and procurement support.
The move of VectorUSA's central Pennsylvania office from Harrisburg to Lancaster enables VectorUSA to both serve a large metropolitan community, as well as maintain its existing relationship with the Harrisburg University of Science and Technology, which has been recognized by the White House's Council of Advisors on Science and Technology for its innovative approach for educating students in science, technology, engineering and mathematics.

WebRTC defines no default signaling protocol, causing fragmentation between WebRTC silos. SIP and XMPP provide possibilities, but come with considerable complexity and are not designed for use in a web environment. In his session at @ThingsExpo, Matthew Hodgson, technical co-founder of the Matrix.org, discussed how Matrix is a new non-profit Open Source Project that defines both a new HTTP-based standard for VoIP & IM signaling and provides reference implementations.

The term culture has had a polarizing effect among DevOps supporters. Some propose that culture change is critical for success with DevOps, but are remiss to define culture. Some talk about a DevOps culture but then reference activities that could lead to culture change and there are those that talk about culture change as a set of behaviors that need to be adopted by those in IT. There is no question that businesses successful in adopting a DevOps mindset have seen departmental culture change, ...

Fundamentally, SDN is still mostly about network plumbing. While plumbing may be useful to tinker with, what you can do with your plumbing is far more intriguing. A rigid interpretation of SDN confines it to Layers 2 and 3, and that's reasonable. But SDN opens opportunities for novel constructions in Layers 4 to 7 that solve real operational problems in data centers. "Data center," in fact, might become anachronistic - data is everywhere, constantly on the move, seemingly always overflowing. Net...

I stayed at this hotel on busines for six days in August on three different occassions.
The staff here is friendly and the rooms are great and very affordable. Each different room I stayed in had a Select Comfort Sleep Number bed which is terrific. Plenty of space in the room and the lavatory made for a great stay. Parking is easy and convenient and is free.
The Sakura Japanese restaurant downstairs is one of the BEST Japanese teppanyaki places I have ever eaten. Make sure you order an appetizer because they are HUGE. They give you tons more than your average teppanyaki restaurant and it tastes wonderful. Every thing I ordered was outstanding.
If I had any gripes it would be with the computer in the lobby for internet service. There is only one terminal and you almost always have to wait.
Overall though this is a place I would definitely go back to.

What You Missed Last Night: Fallon deletes all of his social networks
by Bob Sassone, posted May 29th 2009 5:28PM
This is never going to happen in real life, but last night Jimmy Fallon deleted all of his social networks because it was getting too confusing and taking up too much of his time. I don't know if there's one button to get rid of your Twitter, FriendFeed, LinkedIn, Facebook, YouTube, NetFlix, and IM accounts, but I'm sure someone is working on one right now.

A Domestic Tragedy
Clorinda met me on the way
As I came from the train;
Her face was anything but gay,
In fact, suggested pain.
"Oh hubby, hubby dear!" she cried,
"I've awful news to tell. . . ."
"What is it, darling?" I replied;
"Your mother -- is she well?"
"Oh no! oh no! it is not that,
It's something else," she wailed,
My heart was beating pit-a-pat,
My ruddy visage paled.
Like lightning flash in heaven's dome
The fear within me woke:
"Don't say," I cried, "our little home
Has all gone up in smoke!"
She shook her head. Oh, swift I clasped
And held her to my breast;
"The children! Tell me quick," I gasped,
"Believe me, it is best."
Then, then she spoke; 'mid sobs I caught
These words of woe divine:
"It's coo-coo-cook has gone and bought
A new hat just like mine."

Malaysia expected to release report on missing plane
May 1, 2014 - 15:58 AMT
PanARMENIAN.Net - Malaysia is expected to release a report Thursday, May 1, on the missing Malaysia Airlines plane that it has sent to the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO), the UN body that governs global aviation, according to Reuters.
Malaysian Prime Minister Najib Razak told CNN last week that the report on Flight MH370 would be released this week, and the Ministry of Transport said in a statement that a media release and preliminary report would be issued later on Thursday.
Malaysian officials declined to comment on what the report might contain.
The fact that the aircraft has not yet been found suggests there will be few, if any, major revelations in the report, although any information on the missing flight is being closely followed by families of missing passengers and international media, Reuters says.
The Boeing 777-200ER, which had 239 passengers and crew on board, disappeared off civilian radars on March 8 while on a scheduled flight from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing.
Relatives of those on board have accused the Malaysian government of bungling the early phase of the search and of keeping them in the dark about the details of the incident.
The search moved to the Straits of Malacca a week after the disappearance after radar data confirmed that the aircraft made a turn back. It was expanded after satellite data showed it could have taken a course anywhere from central Asia to the southern Indian Ocean.
Satellite data eventually showed that the aircraft flew to the southern section of the Indian Ocean, off the coast of western Australia, where a massive search of the waters and underwater has still not yielded any evidence of the aircraft.
Top stories
In a statement, the court acknowledged that Hamas contests its inclusion on the list, maintained since it was created in 2001.
"We've never seen so many journalists held captive — for ransom or other reasons — by nonstate actors," Robert Mahoney said.
The raids and arrests "are incompatible with the freedom of media, which is a core principle of democracy," a statement said.
"We are going beyond the banalities taught to us for 200 years. We are finally asking the right questions," the president said.

Health information exchange boosts quality, cuts costs
|| Print |
|Friday, July 05, 2013
In America's competition-based health care market, it can be tough to get rival care providers to work together and share information. Organizers of the Jefferson Health Information Exchange (JHIE), are proud of the way southern Oregon health care providers are cooperating to streamline the flow of patient information in order to improve care and reduce costs.
Guided by the Jefferson Regional Health Alliance (JHRA) and consulting firm Advances in Management (AIM), southern Oregon hospitals such as Providence and Asante, public health agencies, clinics, and independent physicians have all collaborated over the past two years to form JHIE, a new non-profit corporation that facilitates electronic communication among providers.
The Affordable Care Act has been a catalyst for such cooperation because it requires and rewards meaningful electronic information exchange among providers. "The ACA has really motivated a lot of folks to do things in different ways," says Anne Alftine, MD, Project Coordinator for JHRA. "Overall, the ACA is about health care transformation, improving care and reducing costs. Those are also the goals of health information exchange."
Due to decentralization of the health care system, technology challenges and the difficulty of getting a diverse group of competing interests to agree on anything, establishing a regional Health Information Exchange (HIE) program is not easy. But Gina Bianco, president of AIM and acting director to JHIE, says implementing HIE has been notably smooth compared to other regions she's worked with.
"There are communities that attempt, but don't always succeed," she says. "What makes HIE succeed in this community is the willingness of people to really cooperate and put competition aside and focus on the best interest of the patients."
JHIE services are being rolled out in three phases. The initial phase, launched in January, allows providers to electronically send and receive information such as patient referrals and lab results in real time. "The current phase is really a point-to-point exchange from one health care provider to another. Doctors do that today via fax and phone. HIE allows them to do it electronically," says Paula Wheldon, a project manager for JHIE.
JHIE is now working on phase two, which will give authorized care providers the ability to search a patient's clinical records from other providers and contribute information for other providers to see. The final phase, set to roll out in 2015, is more broadly focused on public health reporting and statistical data analysis.
Although JHIE's benefits to patients are obvious, such broad medical-record search capability could make some patients nervous about privacy issues. Wheldon, Alftine and Bianco emphasize the safety of patient records, noting that the system will meet HIPAA information security standards and include access controls to prevent unauthorized use, such as a requirement that there has to be a clinical relationship between the provider and patient for any medical queries to take place.
JHIE's primary focus is improved efficiency and care; however, it is also expected to lead to greater cost savings for the health care providers and the patients. JHIE is too new to quantify the savings yet, but Bianco says that other communities have seen significant savings. "With HIE, we avoid duplicating documents or procedures, and we save money related to technology and not having to build multiple interfaces. Also, from the patient's perspective, not having to have duplicate tests and avoiding additional copays can be a tremendous savings," said Bianco.
Alftine and her colleagues are proud of their efforts. "It has taken a lot of teamwork, drive and energy to get JHIE off the ground," she says. Bianco praises the grass-roots effort that led to the formation of JHIE, "This isn't just some organization imposing its will; it's truly a community driven project with the patient at the center."

APMSS Client Profile
Anti Piracy Maritime Security Solutions (Non-Lethal)
In less than 2 minutes you will have been boarded by pirates
Typical Profile:
APMSS is striving to make the passage of merchant ships through the MSPA as simple as possible without the need for the ships safety and security of crew becoming a headache for the CSO.
A typical profile would be something like this:
Embark 3 APMSS personnel (Team Leader + 2) and equipment at Jeddah / Salalah via STS or port
Team Leader briefs master / SSO on current intelligence, identifies safe areas of ship, briefs procedures in event of incident, essential personnel, roles etc.
APMSS team set up LRAD (long range acoustic device) thermal imagers and organise ships equipment, torches, hoses / axes etc.
SSO/Master and TL receive regular SITREPS from DMI on current activity
Passage lasts 3-5 days
APMSS team disembark via STS / port at either Jeddah / Salalah
Our remit is to provide a non lethal but very experienced interim deck watch security team through known high risk piracy areas with the necessary equipment to give early warning of a potential piratical attack and be able to prevent the situation – "becoming a situation"
It is well known that the earlier you let the pirates know you have seen them and that you are expecting them, the more chance they will call off the attack and seek a target that is not prepared.
Do not allow your ship to become a soft target – use APMSS to keep your ships on the move.

Friday Books: Three poets of vulnerability
Friday Books: MY LIFE ASLEEP BY JO SHAPCOTT, OUP, pounds 6.99 HOLDING PATTERN BY CAROL RUMENS, BLACKSTAFF PRESS, pounds 7.99 OFF COLOUR BY JACKIE KAY, BLOODAXE, pounds 6.95
Friday 28 May 1999
Many people were indeed disappointed that a government that came to power with fighting talk about representing women better should duck a heaven- sent opportunity to do just that. The perfect candidate was available in Carol Ann Duffy, who has had more influence on contemporary poetry than any poet her age in Britain. But since they have changed the Laureate tenure to only 10 years, maybe that day will come. Meanwhile, Andrew Motion is a generous, sensitive appreciator of other people's poetry, passionate about reading and representing it as well as writing it. I'm sure that he will have read and enjoyed all these books.
Jo Shapcott kick-starts her beautifully cadenced third collection with a Lewis Carroll-y quote from William Carlos Williams: "What are all those fuzzy-looking things out there?" Those fuzzy-looking things are the world. Tabloids, rattlesnakes, Noah's ark, motoring manuals, swallowshit: My Life Asleep presents a world of lunatic flotsam and jetsam. We have a two-way relation with it. We look at it, turn into it; and it - like Shapcott's uppity quark, who tells a scientist where to get off - talks back to us.
From a shape-changing sea goddess to dead Dennis Potter, "as live to me as the tongue in my mouth", bodies, animals, identity, sexuality and metamorphosis take centre-stage. Potter's resurrection is staged as "the most painful erection in heaven/ rising through its carapace of sores/ and cracking skin to sing in English." The 35 consummately worked, playful poems, with a lovely innovative music, turn sex, death, zoology, love and micro-physics into a range of profound, irreverent questions.
Blackstaff Press has collected all the Irish poems of Carol Rumens, an English poet who spends most of her year in Northern Ireland. Holding Pattern opens with brave, skilful love poems:
"Dear God I loved her./ But no, I'm a woman, English, not young. How could I?.../ Oh let me die now. And the dark was all flame as I drank/ The heart-breaking odour of Muguets des Bois and red wine -/ Hers, though I have to admit, it could have been mine."
But the whole thing is a love poem to Belfast itself: its female side, rather than the macho face familiar from the media. Rumens homes in on social divisions within its divided people: "I'm on three types of pills," she says, "It's dreadful,/ So it is. Abyssinia Street. A hellhole./ Do you really like Belfast? Are you going to be staying?/ I'm frightened to go out." "Couldn't you move,"/ One of the women says kindly, "To the suburbs?"/ Something collapses in the long silence./ Call it religion. Say what emerges, naked/ And guileless as the orange walls, is Class.
The double edge of "going to be staying"; the way the dragged rhythm of the "something collapses" line incarnates the social gulf opened up by that "suburbs" question (no inconvenient violence there) - all this, in understated technique, supports the tricky enterprise of a poet living and writing among people who do not have her freedom to choose where to live. Knowing she is the foreigner whose concern is always suspect, Rumens poignantly addresses questions of community and love.
Jackie Kay's third collection is an angrier, more humorous landscape. Like the tapeworm in Irving Welsh's Filth, disease is her metaphor for social cruelty, especially racism. An illegal immigrant is arrested, a black servant flogged; the Starr report expands the marital demands of "Paw Broon", her archetypal paterfamilias: "Christ, wait a minite./ I'm no a lollipop.../ Gie me a guid sook. C'mon, c'mon./ Haud on! Let me/ position masel./ Wisna the President/ staundin' agin a wa'/ or wis it the lavvy door?/ ...Whit the Hell's wrang noo?"
Kay, a black Scot adopted by white Communists and a prize-winning novelist, has always linked her poems strongly. The linking principle in Off Colour is identity, bizarrely intertwined (as in detective stories' identification of a corpse) with dentistry. The black immigrant, who died when her mouth was taped, had gorgeous teeth. ("Milk stones. Pure ivory.") A stranger tells the Poet she must be Ibo: "Those teeth are Ibo teeth, the stranger said./ I had no doubt, from the way he said it.../ that Ibo teeth are perfect pearls.
English, in love with Belfast; black, exploring identity in (literally) the teeth of a racism-rotten society; a surrealist whose vision of identity alchemises everything, herself included, into mad cows or Mrs Noah: these three poets place themselves in positions that force them to challenge the world. Their poems are witty, risky, lyrical, teasing; rich, strong, socially questioning. Cleverness is at the service of feeling. In different modes, they all stand for putting vulnerability, both emotional and physical, squarely on the line.
What else do they have in common? Oh, yes. They are all women.

Okay place to stop if you're on a budget. Quite old and in need of some TLC- things broken and a bit dirty. Location is good and bed was comfy. Check in is at the hotel round the corner so you can use their wifi and terrace bar, they're also very helpful. When we arrived we were given the option to choose the room we wanted- was a nice surprise.

The owner of the property is horrible!! She is very rude to guests. She even measures the kilowatts before you enter the room and says you may only use 80 for your whole stay. She has a rule book which states things like you must clean the kitchen before you leave, you must take the rubbish out each day, its 25€ on top to have the room cleaned! Our room was dirty on arrival, they had to quickly change the sheets while we were there. Do NOT stay here! Not worth the money!

Officer Jason Barthel this week began selling T-shirts with the message "Breathe easy, don't break the law" in response to a weekend protest
A week after photos of him holding a sign with the hashtag "BlackLivesMatter" at a protest went viral, Richmond chief is still grappling with the fallout
In the tweets, officer said he would kill anyone who threatens him or his family and that he would be off-duty at the movies with his gun if anyone "feels they can't breathe or their lives matter"
Bill de Blasio delivered the latest volley Tuesday in his ongoing battle with the city's police union, dismissing their ability to speak for rank-and-file officers

Lol well put, definitely interesting how you have had such differing experiences. Thanks again for responding man, regardless of which advice to follow
It's probably a little unnecessary, but I prefer to wear eye protection when working with hair kickers. At least that's one less thing to worry about.
The adults can be very pretty because they do not lack all pigments, only the dark melanin pigment is missing.
Hey guys one of the chaco molted the other one still not so i have to wait a little bit more.

Given the Nintendo DS's popularity and portability, we don't understand why every company doesn't have something in the works for the handheld. Take Wizards of the Coast, for example -- yesterday, the publisher announced plans to release two new games based on the Magic: The Gathering license for PCs, Macs, and Xbox LIVE Arcade. Wouldn't it have been fantastic if it were on the DS, as well?
We would love to carry around an online-enabled version of M:TG in our pockets, but perhaps that's just us and our high-school memories of the collectible card game. Would you buy a M:TG release for the DS? Or have newer card-based games made the 90s pastime seem passé?

Article: The influence of the external structures in atrial fibrillation patients: Relationship to focal low voltage areas in the left atrium.[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Left atrial (LA) low voltage areas (LVAs) are suggested as an important factor for maintaining atrial fibrillation (AF). The relationship between focal LVAs and anatomical contact is still unclear. Thirty paroxysmal AF (PAF) and 30 persistent AF (PsAF) patients underwent high density voltage mapping during sinus rhythm before any radiofrequency applications were performed. The relationship between the LVA (<0.5mV) and contact area (CoA) demonstrated by enhanced CT and the distance to near external structures were investigated. The anterior region, posterior wall and left pulmonary vein (LPV) antrum were the three most frequent LVA sites that corresponded to CoA sites, and LVAs mostly overlapped with CoAs (PAF 47/61: 77%, PsAF 63/74: 85%). In the PAF group, patients with posterior-LVAs had a shorter distance to the vertebrae than those without (2.8±1.1 vs. 4.4±1.9mm; P=0.0086). The distance to the vertebrae was the only predictive factor of the existence of a posterior-LVA and the cut-off value was ≤2.9mm (P<0.0001). Similarly, an LPV-LVA also had the same results (2.0±0.5 vs. 2.7±0.8mm, P=0.0127) and the cut-off value was ≤2.6mm (P=0.0391). In contrast, the PsAF patients had no difference in the distance when compared to the existence of an LVA. Anatomical CoAs demonstrated a spatial relationship to the LVAs in AF patients. In PAF patients, the distance to near external structures in the posterior region was a predictive factor for the existence of an LVA and may have had some influence on maintaining AF, while in PsAF patients no relationship was suggested.

Article: Reasons why patients suffering from chronic heart failure at very high risk for death survive[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Background An accurate prognostic stratification is essential for optimizing the clinical management and treatment decision-making of patients with chronic heart failure (HF). Among the best available models, we used the Cardiac and Comorbid Conditions HF (3C-HF) Score, to predict all-cause mortality in patients with CHF. Methods: we selected and characterized the subgroup of patients at very high risk with the worst mid-term prognosis belonging to the highest decile of 3C-HF score with the aim to assess predictors of survival in subjects with an expected probability of 1-year mortality near to 45%. Methods and Results We recruited 1777 consecutive chronic HF patients at 3 Italian Cardiology Units. Median age was 76 ± 10 years, 43% were female, 32% had preserved ejection fraction. Subjects belonging to the highest decile of 3C-HF score were 246 (13.8% of total population). During a median follow-up of 21 [12-40] months, 110 of these patients (45%) survived and 136 (55%) died. The variables that contributed to survival prediction emerged by Cox regression multivariate analysis were the lower degree of renal dysfunction and higher body mass index. Conclusions The prognostic stratification of chronic HF patients allows in daily practice to select patients at different risk for death and identify prognosticators of survival in outliers at very high risk of death. The reasons why these patients outlive the matching part of subjects who expectedly die are related to the maintenance of a satisfactory renal function and body mass index.International journal of cardiology 09/2014;

Article: Prolonged Effectiveness of Coronary Artery Bypass Surgery versus Drug-Eluting Stents in Diabetics with Multi-Vessel Disease: An Updated Meta-Analysis[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Background Currently, the appropriateness of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) using drug-eluting stents (DES) versus coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) for patients with diabetes (DM) and multi-vessel disease (MVD) is disputed due to limited evidence from few randomised controlled trials (RCT's). We aimed to compare the clinical effectiveness of CABG versus PCI-DES in DM-MVD patients using an evidence-based approach. Methods A systematic review and meta-analyses were conducted to compare the risk of all-cause mortality, myocardial infarction (MI), repeat revascularisation, cerebrovascular events (CVE), and major adverse cardiac or cerebrovascular events (MACCE). Results A total of 1,837 and 3,052 DM-MVD patients were pooled from four RCTs (FREEDOM, SYNTAX, VA CARDS, CARDia) and five non-randomised studies. At mean follow-up of three years, CABG compared with PCI-DES was associated with a lower risk of all-cause mortality and MI in RCTs. By contrast, no significant differences were observed in the mean 3.5-year risk of all-cause mortality and MI in non-randomised trials. However, risk of repeat revascularisations following PCI-DES compared with CABG was 2.3 (95% CI: 1.8-2.8) and 3.0 (2.3- 4.2) folds higher in RCT's and non-randomised trials, respectively. Accordingly, the risk of MACCE at three years following CABG compared with PCI-DES was lower in both RCT's and non-randomised trials [0.65 (: 0.55-0.77); and 0.77 (0.60-0.98), respectively]. Conclusions CABG compared with PCI-DES is recommended for patients with DM-MVD, based on our results from pooled analyses of RCTs. Although non-randomised trials suggest no additional survival-, MI-, and CVE- benefit from CABG over PCI-DES, these results should be interpreted with care.International journal of cardiology 07/2014;

ABSTRACT: Beta Blocker in childhood heart failure: Why not? R. Buchhorn (1), M.E. McConnell(2); 1) Klinik für Kinder- und Jugendmedizin, Caritas Krankenhaus, Bad Mergentheim, Germany 2) Sibley Heart Center Cardiology, Emory University School of Medicine, Atlanta, Georgia, USA. Today in cardiology the efficacy of beta blockers in patients with conges-tive heart failure is beyond all doubt. Beta blockers, as a class, provide mortality benefits in comparison with placebo or standard treatment in patients with mild to severe heart failure. Based upon the disappointing results of the two biggest US studies in children with heart failure beta blockers as well as ACE inhibitors seem to be ineffective. However, looking at the details researchers found the greatest benefit of beta blockers in patients with the most severe heart failure. Therefore,the US-Carvedilol trial in children is clearly underpowered. This trial recruited only children with mild heart failure indicated by very low mean BNP levels(110pg/ml). In the CHF-Pro-Infant trial in infants with congenital heart disease with severe heart failure and high neurohormonal activity we showed significant beneficial effects on Ross Score and neurohormonal activity. Our results are now confirmed by the prospective randomized trial VSD-PHF in 80 infants with VSD from India. Propranolol is the only drug that was successful in prospective randomized trials in infants with congenital heart disease (N=100). Today mortality due to heart failure in infants with congenital heart disease remains a dangerous problem. Sommers, et al in 2005 showed that 111 of 1755 unselected children with heart disease died within 10 years, 67% within the first year of life. Despite high level surgery the cause of death was heart failure in 74%. We respectfully submit that there is significant evidence to support the use of beta blockers in children with heart failure, and to withhold this potentially lifesaving therapy based on underpowered negative studies is unwarranted.International journal of cardiology 05/2014;

Amazing, beautiful home with great pool
We had a great stay at this wonderful home. All brand new, nice finishes, and everything you need to make stay very comfortable. Host was super generous and even got high chair/crib/toys for my kids so that I didn't have to worry about renting stuff etc. They were so gracious and easy to work with and the home is beautiful, with super comfortable beds/bedding, nice bathrooms, great kitchen-- all brand new/renovated. The location is also perfect, super quiet and the pool and outdoor area is so great for entertaining, or just to spend the afternoon. Location was great as well right in N Miami Beach but off the main area a little so nice, residential and very quiet. We really loved it here and would definitely come right back to this house if back in Miami!
Great week in miam
We had a great time here. The house was very large and nice. The pool was cleaned every Day and we lived close to the beach.

Margaret Graham, Countess of Menteith (1334–1380) was a Scottish noblewoman. She married four times, becoming Countess of Menteith and, in 1361, Duchess of Albany. Her fourth and last husband was Sir Robert Stewart, 1st Duke of Albany, who became Regent of Scotland from 1406 until his death in 1420. Her son Murdoch Stewart became the second Duke of Albany, but was executed for treason by King James I of Scotland in 1425.
Early life[edit]
Margaret Graham was the only daughter of John Graham and Mary II, Countess of Menteith. She was born in Doune Castle, Stirlingshire, Scotland. Margaret's grandfather served as second-in-command to Sir William Wallace, fighting alongside Wallace during the Scottish Wars of Independence. He was killed at the disastrous Battle of Falkirk on 22 July 1298, when the Scottish army was routed by Edward I of England.
Sir John was buried in Falkirk Old Parish Church. The inscription reads:
Here lyes Sir John the Grame, baith wight and wise,
Ane of the chiefs who rescewit Scotland thrise,

Nor was gude Graham of truth and hardiment [1]
She was married four times. First, to Sir John Moray, Lord of Bothwell (son of Sir Andrew Moray and Lady Christina Bruce). No issue. Then she was married to Thomas, 9th Earl of Mar but they were divorced circa 1359. No issue. Thirdly, she was married to Sir John Drummond of Concraig.[2]
Duchess of Albany[edit]
Her last marriage in 1361 was to Sir Robert Stewart, 1st Duke of Albany (son of Robert II Stewart, King of Scotland and Elizabeth Mure of Rowallan). Sir Robert Stewart was a member of the Scottish Royal House and later served as regent to three different Scottish monarchs.
The Duke and Duchess of Albany had eight children:
- Lady Janet Stewart
- Lady Mary Stewart (married to sir William Abernathy,6th of Saltoun)
- Lady Margaret Stewart (married to Sir John Swinton, 14th of that Ilk)
- Lady Joan Stewart (Sir Robert Stewart, 1st Lord of Lorn and had descendants)
- Lady Beatrice Stewart (married to James Douglas, 7th Earl of Douglas)
- Lady Isobel Stewart (married first, Alexander Leslie, 7th Earl of Ross and secondly to Walter Haliburton, 1st Lord Dirleton and had descendants.
- Lady Marjorie Stewart (married Duncan Campbell, 1st Lord Campbell| and had descendants)
- Murdoch Stewart (1362–1425), 2nd Duke of Albany (married to Joan Douglas and later to Isabel, Countess of Lennox).
Margaret Graham died on May 4, 1380 in Dundonald, Ayrshire, Scotland and was buried in Inchmahone Priory, Perthshire in Scotland.
