History of Peritoneal Dialysis
Peritoneal dialysis – from the beginning to the present
When symptoms of uremia first appear in the body, it is a sign that the kidneys are not functioning properly or have stopped filtering toxins from the blood. The Greek origin of the word "uremia" shows that the awareness of this disease goes back much further than our ability to effectively treat people this life-threatening illness. Only within the last hundred years medical research has been able to lay the fundament for replacing the kidneys' functions through dialysis.
Essentially, there are two types of dialysis: hemodialysis, which is the preferred treatment for 90% of all dialysis patients, and peritoneal dialysis. Last year we reported in detail about hemodialysis, a procedure where toxins are filtered from the blood of patients with kidney failure in an extracorporeal procedure, or a procedure outside the body. This DIALYSIS COMPACT supplement covers the field of peritoneal dialysis. This home dialysis treatment method uses the peritoneum as a dialysis membrane.
The first progress with this treatment type was made during the 1920s, but it would take a number of subsequent discoveries in the following decades to make peritoneal dialysis accessible for a larger number of patients with kidney disease. These advances were achieved by dedicated doctors and scientists whose efforts and discoveries led to ever-improving treatment possibilities.
On the following pages, we offer an introduction to the fascinating history of peritoneal dialysis and the discoveries which, to this day, help to ensure a longer and better life for more than 250,000 peritoneal dialysis patients worldwide.
The fundamentals of peritoneal dialysis
As described in the introduction, peritoneal dialysis is one of the two established methods to remove toxins and excess water from the human body. The lining of the abdomen (peritoneum) is a thin, shiny membrane that has a surface of as much as two square meters and covers the entire abdominal cavity. Since the peritoneum has good blood circulation, it is an excellent natural filter membrane.
Peritoneal dialysis exploits this unique trait. First, a special fluid – the dialysis solution – is introduced at regular intervals to the abdominal cavity through a catheter. This fluid surrounds the peritoneum and allows metabolites to move from the tiny blood vessels into the dialysis fluid. Among the metabolites are the most well-known, such as urea and creatinine, as well as a number of other substances which gather in the blood of dialysis patients but are normally removed by healthy kidneys. The dialysis solution carrying these substances is then removed several hours later through the catheter and replaced by fresh solution.
In addition to the metabolites, excess water must also be removed from the patient's body. Therefore, sugar is added to the dialysis solution in a concentration far higher than it is in the blood. This offers just one option of balancing the concentration: water flows from the blood through the membrane and into the solution with the high sugar content. This process is known as osmosis.
The first steps toward peritoneal dialysis
The term
The word "peritoneum" refers to the Greek "peritonaion" and means "to stretch". Morticians in ancient Egypt were probably the first people to get a look at the peritoneum as they prepared the organs of influential Egyptians. The famous Greek physician Galen and other medical scholars of ancient Greece studied the open abdomens of injured gladiators. Early anatomists and surgeons described the size and features of the peritoneal membrane but failed to discover its detailed structure or function. These studies were followed by Friedrich Daniel von Recklinghausen in 1862, who gave the first scientific description of the peritoneum's cellular composition.
The metabolic transport processes
In 1877, the German G. Wegner performed the first animal experiments to observe the metabolic transport processes occurring through the peritoneum. For example, he injected solutions of various contents and temperatures into rabbits and discovered that a concentrated sugar solution would lead to an increased amount of fluid in the abdominal cavity. This is how G. Wegner discovered the basis for using the peritoneum for fluid removal, or peritoneal ultrafiltration. In 1894, two Englishmen, Ernest Henry Starling and Alfred Herbert Tubby, discovered that fluid removal through the peritoneum was effected by blood vessels in the membrane.
First treatments of human beings
Stephen Hales and Christopher Warrick, an English surgeon, laid the cornerstone for peritoneal dialysis in humans in 1744: they attempted to treat a 50-year-old patient with ascites by first removing the excess abdominal fluid from the woman before using a leather tube to infuse a solution consisting of 50% water and 50% wine into her abdomen. However, the first peritoneal dialysis for uremic patients was performed quite some time later at the University of Würzburg by Georg Ganter. In 1923, after having experimented on animals, he infused one and a half liters of a physiological solution – one with the same salt concentration as the human blood's – into the abdomen of a woman who suffered from a blocked ureter. Although the treatment alleviated the symptoms temporarily, the patient died a short time later.
Between 1924 and 1938, a number of medical teams in the U.S. and Germany performed the first regularly repeated – or intermittent – peritoneal dialysis treatments and proved that the procedure can be a short-term replacement for the kidneys' natural function.
In the following years, the careful selection of materials such as porcelain, metal, latex and glass, which could be sterilized, made it possible to ensure reasonable hygienic conditions during peritoneal dialysis. Still, the procedure found only limited use, predominantly due to the lack of a safe method of accessing the patient's abdomen.
Peritoneal dialysis catheter
This safe access to the abdomen for peritoneal dialysis is provided by a catheter. Originally, metal cannulae were used to gain access to the abdominal cavity, but were replaced by stomach and oxygen tubes later on. In 1952, Arthur Grollman from Southwestern Medical School in Dallas developed a catheter that would make peritoneal dialysis treatments accessible for patients with chronic kidney failure. Grollman used a one liter container with a cap to which a plastic tube was attached. His revolutionary idea was to use a flexible catheter rather than a stiff tube, as had been the case in the past. In addition, the tip of the catheter remaining in the abdominal cavity had several small holes to allow an optimal inflow and outflow of dialysis solution.
Against the backdrop of the Korean War, the American Paul Doolan developed a catheter for long-term use in 1959. It was made of polyethylene and had a unique geometry of the holes to prevent clogging, while maximizing the flow rate. Richard Ruben, another American, performed the first peritoneal dialysis over a period of seven months, using the Doolan catheter as well as a permanent catheter that could remain in the abdominal cavity. This shows that researchers were not just intending to treat patients with acute illnesses but also patients with chronic kidney failure.
In 1968, the American Henry Tenckhoff developed the catheter named after him. Up until then, the widely used stylet catheter had already made it possible to treat patients with chronic kidney failure using peritoneal disease. However, the "repeated puncture technique" meant placing a new catheter in the abdominal cavity for each treatment. This time-consuming procedure bothered both medical personnel and patients. Tenckhoff himself had the thankless job of setting catheters in patients on weekends. So his permanent catheter not only provided him with more spare time, but also proved to be instrumental in the wide acceptance of peritoneal dialysis. The Tenckhoff catheter is still in use today. Made from silicone, it has one or two cuffs which help the catheter to grow into the peritoneum as well as into deeper layers of connective tissue.
Bags and tubes
In addition to the catheter, the development of bags and tubes also plays a decisive role in the long-term success of peritoneal dialysis. As the most common complication, peritonitis limited the spread of continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD).
Until the fall of 1978, peritoneal dialysis solution (PD solution) was only available in glass containers, connected to the permanent catheter with plastic tubes. Patients had to attach the tubes to the catheter every time they added or removed solution. Because of the high number of connections and disconnections, the danger of peritoneal infection was always imminent. Dimitrios Oreopoulos from Toronto finally made CAPD practical by introducing disposable plastic bags, which lowered the peritonitis rate considerably. Once the dialysis solution was introduced into the abdominal cavity, the plastic bag could be rolled up and remained connected to the patient's body for the duration of the treatment. To remove the solution, the bag was unrolled, and gravity pulled the used dialysis solution into the bag. At the end of the procedure, the bag was removed from the catheter and a fresh bag attached. This new technology offered patients more comfort and relative freedom.
Several Italian research teams also made a valuable contribution to the prevention of peritonitis, most notably Umberto Buoncristiani from Perugia, who invented the Y-System. This system includes an empty bag and connected tubes shaped like a "Y" dictating the flow of dialysis solution. Additionally, a bag filled with PD solution is connected to this system. First of all, the used dialysis solution is drained into the empty bag, carrying possible bacteria from the catheter connector. Then fresh dialysis solution is flushed through the tubes and into the bag for about three seconds. The connection to the abdominal cavity remains closed during this procedure. When the tubes have been flushed, the patient's catheter connector is opened and fresh PD solution is introduced into the cavity (flush-before-fill principle). Depending on the system, the flow of PD solution (drainage, flush, filling) is controlled with clamps or a disc. This technology plays an essential part in lowering the peritonitis rate. Another advantage: patients do not have to carry a bag attached to their bodies.
The double-bag system is an improvement of the Y-system. This innovation not only provides an empty bag already attached to the Y-shaped tube system but also a bag with fresh dialysis solution. This eliminates yet another connection and further decreases the risk of infection. The double bag is the current successful conclusion of the pioneering efforts to lower the peritonitis rate in peritoneal dialysis.

The age of continuous ambulant peritoneal dialysis (CAPD)
CAPD originated in Austin, Texas, in 1975, when Robert Popovich and Jack Moncrief discussed ways to dialyze a patient who was unable to undergo hemodialysis. These discussions led Dr. Popovich to develop comprehensive calculations based on the amount and dwell time of the dialysis solution, determining the effective removal of uremic toxins.
The researchers concluded that a two-liter bag should be changed five times a day and that a PD solution should constantly remain in the patient's body. Paradoxically, the initial announcements of their clinical findings were not taken seriously. But when Popovich and Moncrief presented further clinical successes in 1978, the medical community was convinced. Compared to intermittent procedures, the methods they developed made it possible to remove fluids and filter the blood more steadily and continuously.
Automated peritoneal dialysis (APD)
In addition to lowering the rate of infection, costs for medical staff and materials had to be decreased. Machines for automated peritoneal dialysis (APD) were developed for this purpose. APD uses a programmable machine, or cycler, that controls the volume, filling, dwell time and drainage of the solution. Thanks to automated dialysis, patients can now be dialyzed while asleep at home.
Automated peritoneal dialysis was introduced in 1962 by Fred Boen from Washington University. The machine he developed required a 40-liter container of PD solution. The invention significantly cut the amount of time needed to open and close the tubing system and connect or disconnect bags, as required by manual CAPD. Full containers were delivered to the patients' homes and retrieved when empty. Intermittent peritoneal dialysis was performed once a week.
It was again Tenckhoff who further simplified automated peritoneal dialysis. To eliminate the difficult task of maneuvering the 40-liter container, he suggested to install water preparation equipment that could provide sterile water at the patients' homes. A concentrate would then be added to the sterile water to produce dialysis solution.
Von 1961 bis 1970 führte Norman Lasker aus den USA die Entwicklungen von Boen, Tenckhoff und Russel Palmer in einer Technologie zusammen. Für "seinen" Cycler verwendete er Zwei-Liter-Flaschen mit PD-Lösung, die mit Schwerkraft verabreicht wurde. Die Lösung wurde vorher erwärmt. Im Jahr 1970 gingen die ersten Patienten mit diesem Cycler in die Heimdialyse.
In 1981, José Diaz-Buxo proposed the continuous cyclic peritoneal dialysis (CCPD), which is now the most commonly used APD method. Here, excess water and toxins are removed from patients overnight using 10 to 15 liters of dialysis solution. During the day, one and a half to two liters of dialysis solution remain in the abdominal cavity.
New, biocompatible peritoneal dialysis solutions
PD solutions play an increasingly important role in current peritoneal dialysis research and development. In the 1920s, Ganter used a physiological saline solution, to which glucose was added later. In 1938, Jonathan Rhoads began adding lactate to the solution to correct metabolic acidosis, which can develop if the kidneys are unable to eliminate acidic metabolic products. More than 60 years later, lactate remains the most commonly used buffer in PD solution. However, today there are also solutions containing pure bicarbonate or a mixture of the two substances, bicarbonate and lactate, to balance the acid-base status. As a substitute for glucose, dialysis solutions can also contain amino acids or glucose polymers.
In the early 1980s, a widely recognized article by Axel Duwe was published, discussing the effects of individual components of PD solution on peritoneal efficiency on bacterial killing for the first time. A few years later the term "bio(in)compatibility" appeared to indicate the body's (in)tolerance of dialysis solutions. At the time, studies showed that conventional PD solutions could inhibit the activities of key cells in the peritoneum and cause long-term damage to the membrane. These complications lad to a gradual weakening of the peritoneal membrane and make it unsuitable for further use as a dialyzer. Conventional dialysis solutions have a non-physiological pH below that of the peritoneum and a high concentration of glucose degradation products. Both contribute significantly to the bioincompatibility of solutions. Now, PD solutions are offered in multi-chamber bags that have a neutral to physiological pH and a significantly lower amount of glucose degradation products.
The introduction of this new generation of PD solutions is a promising start for the development of better, more biocompatible solutions. The results of recent studies inspire confidence that new PD solutions can extend the dialyzer function of the peritoneum. Actually, a clinical study showed that a new, more biocompatible PD solution can extend a patient's survival.
This brief look at the history of peritoneal dialysis illustrates the fascinating interaction between the ideas, resourcefulness and determination of many pioneers and dedicated scientists. The success of their efforts is reflected in modern peritoneal dialysis which has attained a solid position in today's kidney replacement therapy.

If you get your picture taken by a PhotoPass photographer, (and all you have to do is ask as they take it on the spot!), they will give you a card. The next time you visit a PhotoPass photographer during your vacation, you can just hand them your card which which holds the photos; and when you get home, you can view your photos free before deciding whether or not to purchase them. You can even add a little extra magic, such as characters or logos!
Now the question is, is PhotoPass worth it?
We have taken advantage of PhotoPass in the past. We even used one of our PhotoPass purchases as our Christmas card this past year; but then again, we have visited Walt Disney World and have not used this service at all. So here's our analysis of this service.
If you are a guest who is looking for professional family photos, a high quality way to preserve your magical memories, or you're someone who just doesn't like carrying around a camera, then PhotoPass may be for you. However, for guests on a budget who like to take their own pics for their photo albums and scrapbooks, we don't think PhotoPass is worth it.
First of all, like most things at Disney, the price for your PhotoPass photos is a little pricey. Secondly, you can have a PhotoPass photographer take a photo for you without the price! Guests may not realize that PhotoPass photographers are truly willing to take a picture for you with your own camera! All you have to do is ask! Also, in our opinion, if a high quality photo is what you're after, use your money to invest in a great camera which will serve you long term rather than spending money for a short term service than you can be done yourself for free.
In addition, other guests at Walt Disney World are usually so friendly that it's not unusual to ask others to snap a photo of you and the family for you; and be sure to ask if you can do the same! Therefore, our verdict is that you can get great photos of you and the family at Walt Disney World without the high price; but, as always, we want to know what you think! What is your opinion of Disney's PhotoPass? Share your experiences, and your own verdict of this service, with us and other readers below!

My dear Cousin
To day as Helen & myself were riding down to the beach I suddenly astonished her by breaching a silence of some minutes & exclaiming in my finest tones that I would write to Clemmie Cope between that time & next morning so here I am at five minutes to nine prepared to inflict four mortal long pages upon thee. And to begin at the beginning has thee fully recovered from the effects of that memorable departure of thine yet? For some days after I felt quite anxious & blamed myself not a little for not having gone up to [?] with thee, which I might have done as well as not, & seen thee safely under Sarah Walkers care & arranged thy baggage for thee. But thee knows how much time there was to think about it, & it never occurred to me until the boat had been off sometime. What thee said at the window we could not make out. I thought thee knew Sarah Walker was on board as that was the first thing I asked Cousin Thomas when we rushed down the wharf, but the expression of thy face told me something was wrong or thee thought so & I did not feel very easy until I heard a day or two after through friend Stokes that thee had got along safely though

SPRING HILL - Three male juveniles were arrested Tuesday on arson and burglary charges stemming from an incident Saturday at a vacant apartment at 10553 Chalmer St.
Deputies say the three juveniles entered the apartment, and one set a section of carpet on fire in an upstairs bedroom.
Witnesses believe they saw two of the male juveniles at the same apartment Tuesday and notified law enforcement, according to the sheriff's office.
Deputies arrived and arrested the two, who were interviewed by detectives.
Both juveniles admitted to the burglary and told detectives the third juvenile started Saturday's fire, deputies said.
The third suspect was arrested at his home and was also interviewed by detectives. He denied setting the fire but admitted that he was at the vacant apartment with the other two, deputies said.
The Hernando Today is not naming the suspects because of their age.
"This crime is particularly troubling and shows that these juveniles are not just being mischievous," Sheriff Al Nienhuis said.
The juveniles were transported to the Juvenile Detention Facility in Ocala.

Primary Care Prescribing is one of the most complex established NHS therapeutic processes. A wide array of drugs is prescribed on a regular and irregular basis to a large cohort of the population. The prescribing budget funds the costs of drugs prescribed in primary care. Typically a primary care trust overspends its prescribing budgets on drugs with dynamic prescribing patterns and pricing. Furthermore, prescribing patterns are an accurate indicator of the quality of healthcare provided in primary care. In this paper a data warehousing approach is proposed that allows integrating prescribing data from different GP practices, equipped with an adhoc OLAP utility that allows measurement of the local prescribing activity within available resources.

Scottish actor Martin Compston takes the lead role in Piggy as a mild-mannered young man who is turned towards a path of vengeance when his brother is murdered, and he's talked to STV about how he became involved in the gritty film.
Out in cinemas this weekend, in Piggy Greenock-born Martin plays Joe, a mild mannered young man is bored by his life.
When his beloved brother is murdered Joe finds solace in Piggy, one of his brother's old friends. As their friendship grows Joe finds himself in an increasing dangerous and murky world of violence and revenge.
Martin told us about his character: "With Joe I thought there were things you could sympathise with, on both sides.
"At the start he's a bit of a lost soul. He's scared of everybody, he's a bit paranoid, and you can sympathise with that. We've all been a bit overly cautious going down a dark street or something.
"It's the society we live in at the moment, everybody's scared of each other.
"Then by the same token we've all been bumped into by some d***head in a pub on a Friday or Saturday night who then gives you s***, and you've had to bite your lip and let it go – because that's what good people do.
"But there's always that little part that goes 'Just once, I'd like to crack him right in the mouth'. There's a reason why we don't do that, but it's that line of fantasy, and that's what Joe crossed when he is pushed too far."
Piggy is the writing and directorial debut of Kieron Hawkes, and set in London. Martin explained of doing an English accent for the movie that "when your director's from South London and your [screen] brother's from South London, and your main sidekick is London as well, there's no room for error. It's very helpful, because your ears in it all the time."
Having shot to stardom in Sweet Sixteen and also having appeared in A Guide to Recognizing Your Saints and The Disappearance of Alice Creed, the 27-year-old is now based down south, though recently returned back to Scotland to film the highly anticipated adaptation of Irvine Welsh novel Filth.
Martin explained how he came to be involved in Piggy: "They sent the script to my agent, and I read it and really, really liked it. I thought, for a first-time, it was one of the most complete scripts that I'd read in a long time.
"The boy who's playing my brother in it, Neil Maskell, is actually a really old friend of the director Kieron [Hawkes], he's also a mutual friend of mine, so it was very nice going into the audition.
"We were all rooting for each other, because I knew Keiron liked some of my stuff, so we went from there."
The actor was full of praise for the first-time director: "I really do think he has the world at his feet."
"He's got the right quality, which I think all good directors have, that when they cast someone – if they cast it properly – you start to know the character in some ways more than they do. Their job at times is just to guide you, and to rein you in when you go too far or you need help with something, and he was great with that.
"There were two things in the whole script that jarred with me, and on the morning of shooting those scenes – both times – he came to me first and said 'There's something not quite right, let's try it like this'. We just seemed to be on the same page."

Greetings to all family members... This project started out in the summer of 2000 as my son asked, "Where did he come from?" After giving him the basics, he persisted. To make a long story short and after phone calls along with hours/days of research, I established a written history of the families of Zasowski, Tucholski, Klima and Juda that form up my major ancestors. It's only a beginning, but its a start! If anything that you will appreciate as you search is the fact that our ancestors came here and WANTED to become Americans. They left their families and friends from what is modern day Poland (as this area was controlled by the Russians, Germans, Prussians, Austrians, etc.) as there was major political unrest and uncertainity in this area. They came her with as little as $4 in their pocket and battled discrimmination, disease, and the Great Depression. The thought about any government subsidies were non existent as in those days, you either made it, or starved. Our ancestors worked their butts off and some even worked themselves to their death...all in the effort to make it in America. They learned English and assimilated into society. All they wanted was opportunity and FREEDOM. They took advantage of what America provided and succeeded. We should be proud of them and what they accomplished. My work is far from done, so any information you can contribute would be appreciated. Until then, God Bless America. Ed Zak of New Smyrna Beach, FL |

So We'll Go No More a Roving Death Quotes
How we cite our quotes: (Line)
Quote #1
So, we'll go no more a roving
So late into the night, (1-2)
In a poem that talks a lot about death, the line "late into the night" takes on a new meaning. Sure, it refers to the time when the speaker likes to rove, but it also sounds like he feels he's "late into the night" of his life.
Quote #2
For the sword outwears its sheath, (5)
When a sheath gets worn out, it pretty much dies. This very clearly tells us that the speaker is thinking about death. It's not clear whether he means the death of his enjoyment, or his own death.
Quote #3
And the soul wears out the breast, (6)
The confusion of line 5 is cleared up a little bit. Any image of the soul wearing out the body, or leaving the body, is a reference to death. The speaker is thinking about the death of his body and his soul's final journey.

Every year the Greyhound pub in Tinsley Green takes a popular playground game to its most competitive level. The British and World Marbles Championship attracts 100 competitors in around 20 teams, with team and individual titles up for grabs.
The tournament in its current guise has been played since 1932, although evidence suggests that the game has been played here for more than 200 years. You don't need to be a professional player to participate, but if you want to compete it is advisable to book your place in advance.

im surprised there hasent been a thread about this already thankyou =D
i1 time cosplayed as an Oeganization XIII member... and another time as Mewtwo xD
-Ha, I wish I could a) design good costumes and b) be courageous enough to do so.
-It'd be cool. Hmm, who would I dress up as...?
-A few times. Some are pretty amazing.
I cosplay! Sadly most of it is from stuff people have never heard of, but I've made some awesome costumes :D Sadly, I haven't gotten around to taking any good pictures of a lot of my stuff.
Here's a bad picture of a renaissance style dress I did for a wedding last summer: I photograph so horribly...

I don't cosplay, but my girlfriend has agreed to cosplay as Haruhi [down] and Kagami [left] for me so WOO!
I don't think I would ever cosplay, but, meh. I wouldn't mind that much.
I don't really Google for pics either, but I see some videos sometimes. I probably should have put that up there :P.
I like looking cool and walking around in costume, but I hate making 'em, so I tend to wear the same costume year in, year out. I'll be Vamdemon/Myotismon for the third year running this coming Anime Boston.

I try to cosplay whenever I go to Texas for cons. ^-^ I've cosplayed Ranma and a few random JRockers. I usually just wear my EGL dresses and my boyfriend dresses up in his EGA attire. Though, we do have plans to cosplay as Team Rocket....
If I could sew, I would cosplay a lot more!! ^^;;
oh im gunna try to cosplay as Cyrus!!! hes so epic
Yes sir :d It's pretty fun and gives me something productive to do.
Nope. I don't really have all that many close IRL friends that'd cosplay for me XDOriginally Posted by PorygonZ
Considering that I already cosplay, I don't really wish for the whole 'someone cosplaying for me' deal. So, no.Originally Posted by PorygonZ
I feel as though that'd be a little.. creepy, so no. XDOriginally Posted by PorygonZ
This year I'm doing a Trucy (Ace Attorney) costume.. a little more on the tough side but god it's so much fun. :( Sewing, sewing, hunting down right clothes~
Is cosplaying like when one person dresses up to be, pretend, act like, or represent someone else? I don't think I've cosplayed before, but I've seen some pictures of someone on Google Images cosplaying the character from One Piece, Monkey D. Luffy. It's either Monkey D. Luffy in the English Version or Monkey D. Ruffy in the Japanese Version, but does also impersonating a character from a certain play that has been written also count as cosplaying much? I've seen a lot of those over these past couple of years.

"I used this label to add on the envelope of the response cards to match the stripes from the Modish marriage line. It makes it look so chic but yet elegant!"
"These added a nice colorful touch to the envelopes! I liked that you can change the font, and make it exactly how you want it. I asked for two names to be on mine, and they turned out just as I had hoped!"
"Had to order these guys to add to the invitation suite. Turned out pretty. Definitely added the last touch to the invites!"
"We ordered these address labels in "Taffy" for our RSVP's. When they came they looked so fantastic! They made an otherwise plain envelope look classy with a nice pop of something extra! If I need any more, I would definitely order these again!"
"These are very nice and I recieved a number of compliments on them. The size is just a bit larger than I expected, but the color is clear and the quailty of the paper is very nice. Would definitely recommend to a friend."

Lady Knights end Gold Nuggets' GCAC home win streak
January 14, 2013
Box score
NEW ORLEANS — Senior guard April Perry scored 26 points Monday — 18 in the second half — to lead SUNO to a 63-56 Gulf Coast Athletic Conference women's basketball victory over NAIA No. 9 Xavier University of Louisiana at XU's Convocation Center.
The Lady Knights (8-2, 3-1 GCAC) ended the 23-game GCAC home win streak of the Gold Nuggets (12-4, 2-2). Xavier had not lost at home to a conference opponent since February 2009.
Perry reached 25 points or more for the third consecutive game. Janee Morton scored 12 points for SUNO.
SiMon Franklin scored 15 points and Whitney Gaston-Loyd 12 for Xavier.
Xavier never led. After Chelsea Broussard's basket tied the score at 10, SUNO went ahead to stay by scoring nine of the next 10 points. The Lady Knights led 29-22 at halftime and held double-digit leads in both halves.
Gaston-Loyd scored eight points during an 11-2 run which cut SUNO's lead to 56-52 with 1:32 remaining, but the Nuggets got no closer. SUNO made 7-of-8 free throws in the final 39 seconds.
SUNO shot 44.2 percent from the floor and limited Xavier to a season-low 29.9 percent. It was a rare SUNO victory against Xavier, which leads the series 60-9 and entered the game with seven consecutive victories against their city rival. SUNO won at Xavier for the first time since 2007.
Xavier is 0-4 this season when allowing 60 or more points in regulation.
The Gold Nuggets' next game will start at 2 p.m. Saturday against Philander Smith at the Convocation Center. It will be the second game of a doubleheader, following an XU-Philander men's game which will tip off at noon.
The Xavier Gold Rush and Gold Nuggets compete in Division I of the
(National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics) as a member of the
Gulf Coast Athletic Conference
(GCAC). Xavier fields men's teams in basketball, cross country, tennis and track and field and women's teams in basketball, cross country, tennis, track and field and volleyball.

Home > Current Students > Curriculum > Alphabetical Course List > Course Details Course DetailsCopyright
Description:This course provides a detailed introduction to the basic law of copyright — traditional copyright subject matter, the concept of originality and authorship, copyright transfers (and terminations of transfers), infringement, and fair use. The course coverage excludes patent law, except in brief overview, and only touches briefly upon related areas of intellectual property law, such as misappropriation, trade secret, and unfair competition law. Copyright law is now important well beyond the entertainment industry, although many of the decisions we study derive from that genre. (Humphrey Bogart, Cole Porter, George Harrison, J.D. Salinger, Superman, Mickey Mouse, and many other luminaries make cameo appearances in our cases.) Copyright (and copyright-like schemes) have increasingly become a necessary tool of the general practitioner as a result of the explosive growth in economic value of information-based products, like computer software and digital networks and databases. The lawyer ignorant of basic copyright principles will be increasingly handicapped in many areas of practice, such as negotiating technology transfers, drafting contractual rights, developing schemes of protection and privacy, distinguishing criminal from non-criminal behavior, and in litigation. But more important than all that, the cases and materials are lots of fun! |
