Academic Excellence
Chinese Exchange Students Take On Challenges
by Tiara Bennett, Sophomore, Mass Communications
Imagine moving over 7,000 miles to a country you have only heard about. The people look at you as if you don't belong because you don't speak their language. You're not sure if you should get back on the plane to go back home or continue your journey and make your family proud. Friends and family are so far away, the only method to reach them is through a phone call, email or Skype. You have to learn how to adapt to the weather, people and food. The only thing to keep you motivated is going to school studying something you love. This is what five students from the Hubei University of Chinese Medicine are experiencing here at Winston-Salem State University this year as participants in a dual degree program in nursing.
The Hubei University of Chinese Medicine is located in Wuhan City, Hubei Province in the central area of the People's Republic of China. Established in 1958, the university has over 17,200 students and offers over 18 specialties in the medical field, including traditional Chinese medicine, acupuncture and advanced traditional Chinese medical surgery.
"This is the first cohort of students who have come from Hubei University as part of a partnership that began seven years ago," said Dr. Peggy Valentine, dean of the School of Health Sciences. "These students will complete their final two years of nursing at WSSU and will receive dual degrees from Hubei and our institution." The dual degree program was established in 2012 when Wang Hua, president of Hubei University, and several of the school's key administrators visited WSSU. Representatives of both universities had worked to create a program that allows nursing students who complete two years at Hubei to transfer to WSSU to pursue their B.S.N. degree. In addition to delegations from Hubei visiting WSSU, WSSU faculty members traveled to China to finalize the curriculum for the program. Also, students from both institutions have been participating in videoconferencing as part of a global understanding class.
"These students from China have been working diligently to improve their command of the English language in order to take advantage of this opportunity," said Dr. Lenora Campbell, associate dean for nursing. "Having this interaction between students from both universities will increase the cultural competence of our students and their students. Understanding the impact culture can have on health outcomes has become increasingly important in health care fields."
The students expressed that being at WSSU was not always easy and they had many challenges. "The only thing I cannot adapt to is the fast pace of the professor. It really is busy, I promise, but overall the schedule pushes you to keep going," said Rui Ye, who is a junior. Rui Ye is the eldest of two. After graduation, Rui would like to find a job in her field. "I want to do something to help ease the load of my parents." In Rui's free time, she likes to hang out with her friends, but she barely has any free time.
All of the students are from Wuhan, China, which is compared to our New York City. The public transportation is a way of life in Wuhan just like in New York. Unlike in Winston-Salem, NC, you need a car everywhere you go or you will not be able to get around. Yini Jiang said she spends more time playing video games and tennis since she can't get to the mall. She is a twin and she is also the older one. After Yini Jiang graduates, she prefers to stay in the United States, but in another city. "I think my greatest challenge is that I need more American friends, so that I can better adapt to life here."
"It is more relaxing unlike in China, where you do not have much time to enjoy life," explained Wenting Yang, who is a junior. After graduation, she plans on staying in the United States for five years to receive her master's in nursing then she will return back to China. "I am the only child in my family, so doing study abroad for two years was a hard decision. My family and my friends do miss me a lot and I miss them also," she said. Wenting likes to read books and travel in her spare time. "Traveling is a good way to experience other cultures and a good way to understand how other people live."
Since these students are nursing majors they get to go to Wake Forest Baptist Medical Center for a clinical class. "It was an exciting experience for me because I got to see the difference between Chinese hospitals and American hospitals," said Xuelun Chu, who is also junior. In Xuelun's spare time, she likes to watch movies and try new restaurants. She is the only child in her family. Xuelun wants to become a registered nurse in a hospital or receive her master's degree in nursing. "I really appreciate Winston Salem State University giving us a chance, so that we can come to America. Here I can get a better education and broaden my horizons."
"I like this university very much because of the good academic atmosphere and the people here are willing to learn more about our country and they are willing to talk to us," said Bowen Zhang, who is also a junior. He is the only child in his family. He likes to play soccer and basketball in his spare time. After graduation, he would like to find a job and get his master's in nursing. The hardest challenge Bowen had to deal with was trying to find a close friend to share his experiences and obstacles to.
Each student overcame their challenges here at WSSU no matter if it was the language barrier, not enough American friends, lack of transportation, or even the quick pace of the professor. These five students stepped out of their comfort zone to come to America to receive an education we all take for granted. They left everyone they love to better their lives for both their families and themselves. The atmosphere at this school allowed each student to feel comfortable. They were able to learn from us and we are able to learn from them. Winston-Salem State University is about different cultures and races to come together to build upon each other and make the community better.

Lakewood Regional Medical Center: Putting the 'ME' Back Into Emergency Services
LOS ANGELES, Jan. 26, 2011 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ — It's a visual that anyone who has watched TV in the last ten years would recognize: sirens blaring, ambulance wheels screeching to a stop, paramedics speeding an occupied gurney toward the emergency room doors. The scene has played out hundreds of times on screens throughout Southern California. Yet for most patients, their experience in the emergency room is decidedly different.
Because hospital emergency rooms see patients with a wide variety of conditions, they must use a process called triage that ensures patients with the most serious or life-threatening conditions are taken first for evaluation and treatment. For instance, people who have shortness of breath, chest pain or stroke symptoms may be seen before other patients. Most emergency rooms aim to take patients to a treatment room as quickly as possible. But the reality is that during busier hours, there may be a longer wait to see a doctor if a patient's condition is not life-threatening. Lakewood Regional Medical Center is taking an innovative approach to try and change that. It puts patients in control of where–and how long–they wait to be seen in the emergency room.
Getting InQuickER
A new emergency room online reservation service (www.LakewoodER.com) is available at Lakewood Regional Medical Center. For a small fee of $14.99, it will allow patients to make a reservation for an emergency room visit, just as they would book a table at a restaurant through OpenTable.com. Called InQuickER, the service enables patients with truly non-emergent conditions to avoid lengthy waits in the emergency room, opting instead to wait for their appointment in the comfort of home. For a small fee, patients can make an appointment usually for an hour and a half or two hours in advance–the same amount of time they might have spent had they just shown up at an emergency room. Through the InQuickER 15-Minute Guarantee, patients are assured that they will be seen by a health care professional within 15 minutes of their scheduled appointment, or their booking fee will be refunded. InQuickER not only offers unprecedented convenience for patients, but allows them to minimize the contact they have with other sick patients in the Emergency Department waiting room.
"With the hospital emergency room closures in our area, the ones who remain open are becoming overcrowded, resulting in longer wait times," states emergency room physician Bruce Jetton, MD. "And the economy is also contributing to crowded emergency rooms; we are seeing a higher number of patients without insurance who use the emergency room as their means of medical service. We are committed to providing best and most prompt service possible and we are putting some things in place to give hospital emergency room patients options and information. The emergency room wait time clock on lakewoodregional.com and the InQuickER reservation service are some examples of this."
Non-emergent patients also have the option to choose how long they are willing to wait in Lakewood's emergency room. Since December, Lakewood Regional has been posting actual wait times on its website for patients coming into its emergency room. The wait times are updated every five minutes and give patients a two-hour rolling average on the time it takes after a patient's arrival to be escorted into a treatment room. The wait time averages give patients "real time" expectations on how quickly they can be seen after they choose to come to Lakewood's emergency room.
Lakewood Regional's emergency room is staffed 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year by Board-certified emergency physicians and nurses. It treats over 37,000 patients a year, is fully accredited and equipped to provide state-of-the-art emergency care. In 2010, Lakewood was designated by Los Angeles County Emergency Medical Services as a STEMI Receiving Center for the care of cardiac patients. Hospitals earn this designation by providing close communication between paramedics, emergency specialists and cardiologists and rapid treatment for heart attack patients when they arrive in the Emergency Department. Studies have proven that STEMI Receiving Centers provide the best chances for survival when patients suffer a heart attack.
There is never a convenient time for an emergency, but Lakewood Regional is making the experience less stressful by providing more options to emergency room patients. By putting "me" back into emergency care, Lakewood is helping patients discover that patience doesn't always have to be tested in the emergency room.

5 Simple Office Policies That Make Danish Workers Way More Happy Than Americans
Americans think it's normal to hate their jobs. Let us introduce you to the Danish concept of arbejdsglæde. It means happiness at work. Here's how Danish offices make sure it's happening.
You will often see Denmark listed in surveys as the "happiest country on the planet." Interestingly Danes are not only happy at home, they're also happy at work. According to most studies of worker satisfaction among nations, the happiest employees in the world are in Denmark. The U.S.? Not so much. Here's just one data point: a recent Gallup poll found that 18% of American workers are actively disengaged, meaning they are "emotionally disconnected from their workplaces and less likely to be productive." The same number for Danish workers is only 10%.
But why are Danish workers so happy compared to their American counterparts? Here are five fundamental differences.
1: Reasonable working hours
I once talked to an American who had gotten a job as a manager at a Danish company. Wanting to prove his worth, he did what he had always done and put in 60 to 70 hours a week. After a month, his manager invited him to a meeting. He was fully expecting to be praised for his hard work, but instead he was asked "Why do you work so much? Is something wrong? Do you have a problem delegating? What can we do to fix this?"
Some non-Danes wonder if Danes ever work. Not only do Danes tend to leave work at a reasonable hour most days, but they also get five to six weeks of vacation per year, several national holidays and up to a year of paid maternity/paternity leave. While the average American works 1,790 hours per year, the average Dane only works 1,540, according to Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) statistics. Danes also have more leisure hours than any other OECD workers and the link between sufficient leisure and happiness is well established in the research.
The difference in the U.S. is stark, and many American companies celebrate overwork as a sign of commitment. "You have to put in the hours" is the message in the mistaken belief that the more hours you work, the more work you get done. We call this "The Cult of Overwork." Danish companies, on the other hand, recognize that employees also have a life outside of work and that working 80 hours a week is bad for both employees and the bottom line.
2: Low power distance
In the U.S., if your boss gives you an order, you pretty much do what you're told. In a Danish workplace, extremely few direct orders are ever given and employees are more likely to view them as suggestions.
Dutch sociologist Geert Hofstede has quantified the business culture in more than 100 countries on several parameters, one of which is "power distance." A high power distance means that bosses are undisputed kings whose every word is law. U.S. workplaces have a power distance of 40 while Danish workplaces—with a score of 18—have the lowest power distance in the world.
This means that Danish employees experience more autonomy and are more empowered at work. Here's just one example: By law, any Danish workplace with more than 35 employees must open up seats on the board for employees, who are elected to the board by their peers and serve on an equal footing and with same voting powers as all other board members.
3: Generous unemployment benefits
In Denmark, losing your job is not the end of the world. In fact, unemployment insurance seems too good to be true, giving workers 90% of their original salary for two years. In the U.S., on the other hand, losing your job can easily lead to financial disaster. This leads to job lock (i.e. staying in a job you hate) because you can't afford to leave. Additionally, until very recently, losing your job in the States often meant losing your health care which also contributed to job lock but with the Affordable Care Act, this will be mitigated.
Simply put: If you're a Dane and you don't like your job, your chances of quitting that job without risking serious financial problems are much better, forcing companies to treat their employees well or risk losing them.
4: Constant training
Since the mid-1800s, Denmark has focused on life-long education of its workers. This policy continues to this day, with an extremely elaborate set of government, union, and corporate policies that allow almost any employee who so desires to attend paid training and pick up new skills. It's called an "active labor market policy," and Denmark spends more on these types of programs than any other country in the OECD.
This lets Danish workers constantly grow and develop and helps them stay relevant (not to mention stay employed) even in a changing work environment.
5: A focus on happiness
While the English and Danish languages have strong common roots, there are of course many words that exist only in one language and not in the other. And here's a word that exists only in Danish and not in English: arbejdsglæde. Arbejde means work and glæde means happiness, so arbejdsglæde is "happiness at work." This word also exists in the other Nordic languages (Swedish, Norwegian, Finnish and Icelandic) but is not in common use in any other language on the planet.
For instance, where we Scandinavians have arbejdsglæde, the Japanese instead have karoshi, which means "Death from overwork." And this is no coincidence; there is a word for it in Danish because Danish workplaces have a long-standing tradition of wanting to make their employees happy. To most Danes, a job isn't just a way to get paid; we fully expect to enjoy ourselves at work.
The U.S. attitude towards work is often quite different. A few years ago I gave a speech in Chicago, and an audience member told me that "Of course I hate my job, that's why they pay me to do it!" Many Americans hate their jobs and consider this to be perfectly normal. Similarly, many U.S. workplaces do little or nothing to create happiness among employees, sticking to the philosophy that "If you're enjoying yourself, you're not working hard enough."
The upshot
I'm not trying to paint Danish companies as utopias for workers and their American counterparts as tyrannical hellholes. There are bad Danish workplaces and stellar American ones—Zappos and Google are two that I've personally visited and studied.
But studies have uncovered a number of systemic and cultural differences between the two nations that serve to explain why Danish workers are on average so much happier than American ones.
This goes far beyond happiness. We know from any number of studies that happy workers are more productive and innovative and that consequently, happy companies have happier customers and make more money. This may help explain why Danish workers are among the most productive in the OECD and why Denmark has weathered the financial crisis relatively well, with a current unemployment rate of only 5.4%.

As a North American surrounded by miserable working North Americans, many of whom make a virtue of 60-hour weeks, all of this suspicion and cynicism about happiness being related to external factors is painfully hilarious.
"Well, they have higher taxes. That's like slavery too, amirite?" "They must just have self-reported, statistical happiness." "Allow me to focus on what's the same." "Allow me to narrowly focus on some supposed virtue, like unrewarded productivity." "Well, nanny state / socialism." "Happiness is a state of mind." "You can still be productive if you hate your job."
Watching other North Americans twist their brains to justify North American work misery, when they are confronted with Denmark's example, speaks to an elephant in the room. I guess if it keeps alive the assumption that we're still the greatest way of life that ever happened, any excuse will do, right?
As an American living in Denmark (and one who has worked here for more than 12 years), I'm sorry to say that happiness of Danes -at work and at home - is greatly exaggerated!
Is this just statistical happiness? In North Korea they keep telling us how happy their people are.
Happiness is largely about choices and when considerably more than 50% of the sweat of your labour is taken from you forcibly, then your choices are more limited.
Did you also know that car purchase tax is 260% - thats called limiting choices
that 250% tax is covering the costs of car ownership normally distributed over the entire population. see externalities. This tax is a good thing because it puts costs of running a car on the person that owns the car.
Im a dane. I think this article sucks. There is at total lack of substance and cultural depth in the so called facts. All in all everything comes down to focus on and ability to deliver the core product. A shared responsibility between employee and employer. In that sense Denmark is no different than any other country or growth oriented market around the globe. All socialistic assumptions and fluffy romantic ideas about how the benefit system and so on works are a joke and an insult to me as a responsible and proactive professional competing to make a living and a meaningful life!
I agree, Thomas. I am an American living in Denmark and have been working here for more than 12 years. It fails to mention how much talk in the media there is about how stressed out everyone seems to feel and how that low power distance leads to slow decision-making - or failure to carry out decisions already made, and thus, to employee dissatisfaction!
But you cannot deny benefits as a country that you already have, you tend to live as a king in the world of places with less than 50% you have gotten.
From a Dane: Most of what you write here is true, Alexander. Except we only get 90% of our income up to a certain amount. So most wellpaid workers go down in income. Still, it is an income, you can survive on, even though you may have to move if you don't get a job again after some months. Productivity is harder than in US according to one of my friends who worked in US for years and came back. He has a wellpaid responsible job. About light: There are various rules about how working life should not damage your health. I don't know if there are rules about light, but I don' know any places in Denmark where people work in the cubicles I've seen from America. It must be terrible. Interesting to hear those negative comments.... :-)
Top Work From Home Options - http://ourbusinessladder.com/viewrsr.php?rsrid=8
Low number of working hours, high number of vacation days, generous unemployment, free health- and childcare benefits. How is it paid for? By a minimum tax rate of 43% on individual earnings over $7700 USD, 62% maximum rate, and a VAT of 25%. HOLY CRAP! Talk about your "nanny state". So a Danish engineer works 1540 hours at $100 per hour, makes $154000, gives minimum $67000 back in taxes and pays 25% more for everything than I do? The only way he's happy is if he stopped thinking about everything when he was nine. Typical socialist brainwash folderol.
How much are your monthly health insurance premiums? Denmark has single-payer healthcare, so the Danish don't pay for health insurance.
Add those premiums to your income taxes and you may find that you're actually paying out about what they do. Yes, their sales tax is higher. They also don't have the crumbling roads and bridges we have in the US.
You get what you pay for.
And, even though I hesitate to ask, what do you think a "nanny state" has to do with tax rates? Answer: nothing. A "nanny state" is one where the government or its policies are overprotective or interfering unduly with personal choice.
You also missed the mark with the term "socialist" - Denmark has a multi-party Parliamentary government.
Socialism is a system characterised by social ownership of the means of production and co-operative management of the economy, which this article made zero mention of.
Why are you so hateful and ignorant of simple facts that are so readily available?
No it doesnt. This isn't the US, cost of health care is less than half so the health premium does not account for that.
You also misunderstand socialism. Europe is a socialist run continent, the only differences are the shades of red.
http://kff.org/global-indicator/health-expenditure-per-capita/ says
Denmark $4,467 United States of America $8,233
I think the point Corwin was making was that by the time you added all the nickel and dime charges for living in the United States, it's as expensive if not more so, when you account for the risk of failure, as living in Denmark.
"Red" is for communism, bud. Socialism is a different animal, and Europe is most decidedly not a "socialist run continent" (whatever the heck that's supposed to mean)... they're just more progressive than we are in the US. You can try to smear them with non-sequiturs if you like, but it's helpful, if you're going to pontificate, to make sure you know what you're talking about.
Do we further want to increase the divide between rich and poor or do we want to work on a more socially and economically just society? Do we want to increase productivity for the sake of productivity and an ever growing industry that will inevitably deplete our natural resources faster and faster or do we want to think about alternative ways to be happy that are more in line with what our planet can supply. It's a very American idea that everyone can make their fortune through hard and dedicated work alone. High income alone, however, made very few people happy - but see for yourself.
Happiness isn't a product of either social equality, environmental policies, or income (high or low). Happiness is an unnatural state of being that can't be purchased or legislated. Happiness is a product of mental toughness. Mentally tough people can be happy in a nuclear wasteland, or in a fascist state, or living under a bridge without a penny to their name.
Your ideas are very misguided. Social equality does increase happiness. Toughness has little to do with it. There are many ways to be happy, both in environments and actions one might take. One of the easiest ways, and in my opinion, one of the most sustainable ways is by developing good social ties and relationships (maybe even meaningful ones). A comfortable life and variety do help as well. Think of it in evolutionary terms if it makes it easier to visualize. A state of biological balance and homeostasis.
"For success, like happiness, cannot be pursued; it must ensue, and it only does so as the unintended side effect of one's personal dedication to a cause greater than oneself ." ~Viktor Frankl
I don't think that if you hate your job you may not be willing to give it all your best. As you said it is believed to be popular to hate your job but we still perform well moving the company forward. http://www.sd-webhosting.net
Finnish is not a Nordic language. Rather, it is a Uralic language--which group is not even part of the Indo-European language family. Finnish is less like Swedish and Norwegian than English is like Greek. This is something that is taught in middle school geography--that the author of this article would get such an elementary fact wrong casts doubt on the the whole thing.

Work on one of the flyovers on Anna Salai near the new Secretariat complex will start within a few days if the government accepts the recommendation of a revised traffic study for the facility.
Consequently, the Metro Rail work on the stretch may be delayed by a few months for completion of the piling work of the flyover.
The study, conducted by the Highways Department over the last few weeks, emphasised the need for expediting the flyover project as it would be one of the crucial components for effective traffic management on the arterial road.
Most of the eight traffic intersections of the stretch from the P.Orr & Sons showroom to the CIT Nagar First Main Road junction near Saidapet covered in the study recorded traffic volume of over 10,000 passenger car units (PCUs).
Some of the intersections have a growth of over 10 per cent in traffic volume that it is expected to soon touch 10,000 PCUs, said an official of the Highways Department.
Higher order solutions, such as construction of bridges and flyovers, are usually recommended for traffic volume of over 10,000 PCUs.
Work on two flyovers proposed on Anna Salai was expected to start in August and the CMDA had sanctioned Rs.100 crore for the project. One of the flyovers would span a length of 1.9 km, between the P.Orr & Sons showroom and the Spencer Plaza junction. The other flyover would be 2.9 km in length and stretch between Anna Arivalayam in Teynampet and the CIT Nagar First Main Road junction near Saidapet.

Is it possible to produce the model in two colors (silver and gold) ? I am thinking of use a silver core and covered with gold color material, the engraving can produce 2 colors...

This however would still need to be done by hand but, spectacular results would be possible. Contrasting solders could be flowed into grooves or pockets on the design then the surfaces ground down to an even plane.

It's just that loose powder leftover from the print process can sometime remain lodged in random areas of the grooves making for less than perfect results. Also sometimes during bronze infiltration very narrow grooves can be drowned out. A lot depends on the overall design. A broad flat surface inscribed with a design or pattern composed of line widths less than .5mm is likely to have some flaws. Whether this is acceptable or not is up to the individual designer. -G ]]> GlenG 2012-01-12T19:19:15-00:00 Re: minimum engraving thickness and 2 colors http://www.shapeways.com/forum/index.php?t=rview&goto=41798&th=7777#msg_41798 ) ]]> stop4stuff 2012-01-12T19:30:48-00:00

Re: Can I sail to the Bahamas with NO experience?
Hmm, yes, I realize there's some pretty serious waters beteen the Turks and Caicos and the BVI's/Dominican/Puerto Rico so let's just assume island jumping in the Bahamas for now.
And of course there's inherent dangers when you're on a piece of wood in the middle of the ocean. I understand that. What I'm trying to figure out is, how do I condition my feet just enough to run across the bed of coals..so to speak.
I'm looking for specific information or experiences, not just speculations based on my obvious inexperience.
I also realize I'm not going to buy a boat tomorrow, learn everything there is to know about every technique and scenario the following day, then leave for the Bahamas on the third day without a hitch.
I'm not the most interesting man in the world from the Dos Equis commercial. I'm just trying to figure out EXACTLY what I'd have to do.

November 16, 2009
Caroline E. Davis is the new Vice-Principal (Finance and Administration), and Dr. Robert Silverman will serve as Vice-Principal (Academic) on an interim basis.
Ms Davis is a Chartered Accountant who has spent more than 30 years in the federal civil service. She is currently Assistant Deputy Minister, Resolution and Individual Affairs at Indian and Northern Affairs Canada (INAC), where she has overseen the implementation of the $1.9B Indian Residential Schools Settlement Agreement. She previously served as INAC's chief financial officer for five years.
Ms Davis was recently elected Fellow of the Institute of Chartered Accountants of Ontario. This is the Institute's highest designation, awarded for outstanding career achievements and outstanding service to the community and the accountancy profession.
She is currently an adjunct professor at Queen's. She teaches a course in the School of Policy Studies' Masters of Public Administration program.
"Caroline Davis has had a very successful and wide-ranging career in the federal public service," says Principal Daniel Woolf. "She brings excellent people skills, as well as core competencies in critical areas for the university's financial and administrative management. I look forward to welcoming her to the senior team in the early new year."
She starts as V-P on January 4, 2010.
"I look forward eagerly to working with the Queen's community," says Ms Davis. "My first priority will be getting to know colleagues and team members and obtaining an in-depth understanding of the financial situation."
Principal Woolf co-chaired a search committee that began its work in June to fill this position.
"I want to thank Acting V-P Bill Bryck, who returned to his alma mater a year ago to lead the financial and operational piece of the university's administration, ably and with great enthusiasm and effectiveness," says Principal Woolf. "His continued contribution to Queen's is much appreciated."
Principal Woolf has also appointed the former Dean of the Faculty of Arts and Science, Bob Silverman, as Vice-Principal (Academic) on an interim basis, from May 1, 2010 until June 30, 2011.
Dr. Silverman will succeed Patrick Deane, who will become President of McMaster University next July.
"I wish Patrick all the best at Mac and want to again recognize his tremendous service to Queen's," says Principal Woolf.
When Dr. Deane's new appointment was announced last month, Principal Woolf indicated he would appoint an interim Vice-Principal for the 2010-2011 academic year to provide adequate time to conduct a full search and selection process for a new V-P.
"Bob Silverman has had an impressive administrative career at Queen's as Dean and more recently as coordinator of our Bader Performing Arts Centre initiative with the City of Kingston," says Principal Woolf. "Having worked with Bob in other capacities, I look forward to doing so with him as V-P (Academic) over the next year."
Dr. Silverman spent 10 years as the Head of Sociology at the University of Alberta before coming to Queen's in 1996 as Dean of the Faculty of Arts and Science, a position he held for more than a decade. In 2006, he was honored with a Distinguished Service award.
"Patrick Deane will be a very hard act to follow, but I am looking forward to the challenges and working with Principal Woolf and the entire Queen's community," says Dr. Silverman.
Dr. Silverman will begin working with Dr. Deane and his staff in the new year, ensuring a seamless transition. Dr. Deane will leave campus in May to prepare for his move to Hamilton.

Slovak Gas Prices for Households to Fall 5.2 Percent, Sme Says
March 1 (Bloomberg) -- Slovak natural-gas prices for households will decline an average 5.2 percent, Sme reported, citing the utility regulator.
The drop will become effective immediately after the regulator's ruling is delivered to Slovensky Plynarensky Priemysel AS, the country's dominant gas supplier, the newspaper said.
The Office for Network Industries asked the utility to charge less to households after OAO Gazprom lowered prices for its customers, including Slovensky, Sme reported.

Pune: Due to the water crisis looming over Pune city, Pune Municipal Corporation (PMC) has cut down the water supply of the city, but the water tanker operators are looking at these water crisis as an opportunity to extort money from citizens. Taking cognizance of the complaints, the civic administration has given helpline number where citizens can complain against water tanker operators who are extracting exorbitant amount from citizens.
There is still no rain in and around Pune, particularly in the catchment areas of Khadakwasala, Warasgaon, Panshet and Temghar dams, which provide water to PMC. As less than 1.90 TMC water left in these dams, the civic administration had to impose water cuts and from June 28, city has started receiving water only once a day.
The areas like Bavdhan, Wadgaon Sheri, Aundh, Kalyaninagar and Vimannagar are some of the areas where water tankers operate. The tankers which PMC provides through private operators charge Rs500 for per tanker. But citizens of various areas have claimed that some of the tanker operators have started charging in the range of Rs1,200 to Rs1,500 for tanker ever since the water cuts have been imposed.
Sandip Kulkarni, a resident of Vimannagar area said, " We call water tanker during week end. Till last week, the tanker would charge us Rs700 but ever since PMC has imposed water cuts, the tanker charges have gone up to Rs1,200. Since we have no option we have to pay the amount to get water."
The residents claimed that the civic administration should step in and control the water tanker operators. Rajesh Sharma, residents of Koregaon park area said, " If it does not rain now, the demand for water will increase and the transporters will also increase their charges. This is the time when civic administration should start taking action against water tanker operators."
When asked VG Kulkarni, head of water department of PMC, he said, "We have announced water complaint helpline where citizens can register complaints but citizens are not coming forward to file complaints."

Postmenopausal Women & Diabetes
Non diabetic postmenopausal women can reduce insulin concentrations and improve insulin sensitivity by consuming alcohol in moderation, according to U.S. Department of Agriculture nutrition researchers.
The investigators found that moderate consumption of alcohol, compared to abstention, reduced fasting insulin concentration by 19.2%, triglyceride concentration by 10.3%, and increased insulin sensitivity by 7.2%. Normal weight, overweight and obese women experienced similar results.
Standard Drinks and Alcohol Equivalence
Learn what they are and why they're very important.
"The observed changes with alcohol intake may reduce the risk of developing type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease in this population of women" note the authors of the study, published in the Journal of the American Medical Association.

Google once again is holding its annual hackathon for participants to search for holes and major flaws in its Chrome browser. Last year, the bounty was $2.71828 million in prizes.
However, this year, they've totally upped the ante — to the infinite degree. In fact, according to Entrepreneur, "Google has changed the nature of the prize money at stake…It now goes all the way up to $∞ million."
Prizes in the hackathon range from $500 up to a new high of $50,000, and there's no limit on the reward pool, but that could always be scrapped at the drop of a hat. Google says that the changes "are meant to lower the barrier of entry, and remove the incentive for hackers to sit on discovered bugs until the annual competition."

Bishop urges help for scam victims
CEBU CITY—A retired teacher has fallen ill because of anxiety about the fate of the money she had invested in a firm that operated a "double-your-money" scheme.
The teacher is just one of what Interior Secretary Manuel Roxas II said was more than 10,000 victims from the Visayas and Mindanao lured by the pyramid scam ran allegedly by Pasay-based trading firm Aman Futures Group Philippines Inc.
The teacher was a parishioner who had stopped going to church since she fell into depression after losing her retirement benefit to the trading firm, said Bishop Antonio Nercua Ablon, bishop of Pagadian City of the Iglesia Filipina Independiente, in a phone interview.
Ablon said the public school teacher in Dinas, Zamboanga del Sur, put her P500,000 retirement money to the trading firm after she was lured by the promise of doubling her money in 20 to 30 days.
Many of his parishioners invested in the firm, hoping to get high returns, he added. "It had given people false hopes," Ablon said.
Ablon said he told their pastors to conduct counseling sessions for the victims. "Life must go on," he said.
The National Bureau of Investigation (NBI) and the police are looking for one Manuel Amalilio, chair of Aman Futures, with address at 99 Espina Village B. Rodriguez Extension in Cebu City.
Roxas told a news conference on Friday night that he was coordinating with the local police and the NBI-7 to locate Amalilio.
Other persons allegedly involved in the scam were identified as Cebuana Lelian Lim Gan, Fernando Luna of Pagadian City, Eduard Lim, Naezelle Rodriguez, William Fuentes and Lurix Lopez.
Roxas said he was also coordinating with Justice Secretary Leila de Lima for a hold-departure order to be issued against Amalilio and others involved in the scam.
He described Amalilio as a Filipino of Malaysian descent. Roxas said there were many complainants, but at this stage, the case has not "matured" to the point of filing a case.

In the weather-delayed tournament in Prestonsburg, it may be cold outside but it hasn't affected the Harrison County Fillies.
The Fillies opened the tournament on Tuesday morning with a start-to-finish win over the Jenkins High School Lady Cavaliers 66-50.
The Fillies' defense was the key to the victory as they forced 25 turnovers and had 16 steals for the game.
The Fillies had a great team effort with senior Kaitlin Johnson leading the scoring with 14 points, including four threes.
Freshmen sweep
Pendleton County
The Harrison County Filly and Thorobred freshmen squads posted a doubleheader sweep of Pendleton County Wednesday Dec. 16. The first-year girls' squad led or was tied at all stops, but was never comfortably ahead.
Sunday evening play opened the Bracken County Tournament for the Harrison County Thorobreds.
The Breds faced the Juggernauts of Erlanger Lloyd High School of the 9th region pulling away to a 60-51 win.
Lloyd came into the game sporting a 1-3 record while the Breds began at 3-2 for the young season.
The high school basketball season is into the tournament time, which is one of my favorite times of the year.
On a good day and night, a fan can go to one location and watch from four to eight games without leaving the gym. That may sound like a miserable day to some, but that's what I call hog heaven.
High school games still have the biggest percentage of fans that really care about their team winning, I believe.
The weekend and Tuesday brought the Harrison County Thorobreds face to face with some of their hottest rivalries. Nicholas County on Friday, Deming on Tuesday and the Paris Greyhounds in the middle made for some intense basketball.
Friday night the Blue Jackets rolled into Cynthiana with two transfers and some veteran players to see how they matched up with the home standing Breds. They matched up nicely.
The game went into triple overtime before the visitors pulled away for an 83-78 win.
There was an article in Sports Illustrated last week about Chuck Hayes of the Houston Rockets, late of the Kentucky Wildcats. It talks about the hard work and dedication to his profession that Hayes puts in day in and day out.
Hayes is a rare breed in the NBA, one who does what it takes to win regardless of personal stats. He is a reflection of his coach. While at Kentucky, Tubby Smith, who despite heavy scrutiny, was always a team first, individual second kind of coach. There needs to be more like Hayes. If there were, the NBA might be watchable.
If you count Monday as part of a long weekend, the Harrison County Fillies put up three victories for the weekend. Beginning with a knock down, drag out in Paris Friday and ending with two home wins, the Fillies brought their season record to 4-1.
Friday's game was what has come to be the norm for Harrison County vs. Paris.
In an extremely physical game, it was fitting that an intentional foul by Paris played a large role in the Harrison County win.
The Harrison County Thorobreds wrestling squad had a busy week as they faced some tough competition in two locations.
On Wednesday, Dec. 9, the Thorobreds traveled to Mt. Sterling to take on region rival Montgomery County.
According to Coach Russ Riegel, this was the single biggest match so far this year. Montgomery County is one of the 10 regional teams that will compete in the round robin super duals with the winners advancing to the state super duals.
Freshmen split
games last week
The Harrison County freshman boys won at home and lost on the road last week.
The young Breds defeated Bryan Station 61-51 on Dec. 9 at home.
Harrison County High's grapplers began the 2009-2010 season with an impressive 57-18 beating of the Madison Central Indians in Richmond Wednesday night. HCHS won 11 of the 14 bouts, four by forfeit. Madison Central is in only the second year of wrestling and Coach Russ Riegel feels that they will be a formidable opponent in coming years.

Most good gamers who use a mousepad, usually tend to swear by them. A good mousepad needs to be able to provide an amazing glide, for the best precision. Steelpad has sent us their 4D mousepad to review, which is two sided for different mice. Check it out in our review.
If you are a gamer who uses a good quality mousepad, you usually end up swearing by it. I am one of those people who never use a mousepad, ever. I've always been recommended to get one, but never had the real need to, so I just stuck to using the surface of my desk.
I thought I never needed one, until I received the Steelpad 4D (Thanks Steelpad!). Let's jump right into the features and see what this pads all about.
This is definitely not a normal mousepad, obviously, or else we would not be reviewing it. So what makes it so special? The 4D is made of high quality and durable plastic compound, and has two surfaces, rough and smooth. Depending on your playstyle or mouse type, you may prefer one or the other.
The pad also comes with a non-slip base, so that the mousepad doesn't slide all over your desk. The 4D measures 11″ across and 10″ high, with a depth of 2.5mm. This makes it a perfect sized mouse pad. I am a loser with a small desk, so I have to lie the pad vertically.
Sure, the mousepad has good features, but how does it do? As mentioned earlier, the pad is two sides. The smooth side is generally meant for Ball mice [who the hell still uses those?] and the rough side is for Optical/Laser.

Sundown: Elijah Takes the Form of Iraq Vet
Plus no aliyah for the iPad, name games, and more
• A former army medic got called into action to save a rabbi's wife from choking on some kosher London broil at a Yankees game; the Reb called his impromptu hero a "kind of Elijah figure." [NYDN]
• The New York Jewish Week finds harmony between Hillel Halkin and Yehuda Halevi, the subject of Halkin's book for Nextbook Press: "Hebrew literature, Zionism, Israel, the diaspora and its discontents, Jewish thought, the very essence of Jewishness itself—they all come together, over a span of 1,000 years, in the poet/philosopher and in his biographer." [NYJW]
• Israel's Communication Ministry has banned the Apple iPad from entering the country, and it's not just because the company opted against a catchier name—rather, the computer's "broadcast WiFi power levels are not compatible with Israeli standards," whatever that means. [Arutz Sheva]
• MyJewishLearning.com is holding a contest to name its new parenting site. The prize is $500! We would offer them some rejects from before Tablet's launch, but we doubt they will want "Pickle," "Brisket," or "Matzah Ball." (What do you want, we were hungry!) [MJL]
• Eerily banal mug shots of Nazis. [Daily Heller]
• Sign a petition urging the Rabbinical Council of America to put more stock in leadership roles for Orthodox women.

More addictive than Candy Crush!
A connoisseur of the world, I savor every unique experience that comes my way: foods, travels, people and their stories, and adventures. Just this year I traveled to Beijing, Taiwan and Japan. I have also explored Tahiti, Costa Rica, and the vibrant cities of New York, London and Paris. Future destinations on my wish list include Antarctica (would love to see the penguins) and the Himalayas. Typically, though, I choose warm destinations! I am always up for a trying a new restaurant, but we have some amazing restaurants locally and I love to savor the menu offerings at Fresca, Limon, Esperpento, La Briciola, Okina and Kazu. I tend to read nonfiction because I want to keep learning and growing. I stay active and like to get the gym and also train for long races. I usually run a couple of marathons each year. While that makes me sound like I am uber fit, I assure you I am not. I do attend yoga most weeks and find that it is a great complement to my running training. A few random nuggets that help flesh out your understanding of who I am: • Love to shop on Amazon, and I even buy groceries there sometimes! • I appreciate fine wine and have a weakness for Zins and Pinot Gris. • People usually don't think that I look Japanese at all, even though I totally am. • I like to surf in the summer and snowboard in the winter. • I am quite curious about everything. My friends will tell you that I am incredibly loyal and that I am a careful listener. After some self-reflection, I can tell you that I show my love mostly through my actions. I am passionate about learning new things, experiencing unique things, and taking on life each day. The woman I seek is someone who knows where she is headed. She is likely ambitious and has goals for her life, which she takes steps to achieve. She is responsible and grownup, but she knows how to let go and be silly sometimes. I joined Match with the intention of finding that one special bff with benefits. When I find her, my main goal in life would be to keep a smile on her face.

I love dogs and would love to have one, but I just don't feel like I am home enough.
Some other viewpoint
For sushi – Kirala and Umami. When I crave a big hunk of meat, I head to Bob's Chophouse or Alexander's. Also can find me at Fresca, Limon, Esperpento, La Briciola, Okina, and Kazu.

2. Read your own article, they don't want "Sony's Sloppy Seconds". Doesn't say anything about Nintendo there.

Helgason: Yeah. We'll do a we'll make it potentially possible to do.
What's interesting is that our philosophy is always this: We have a match work flow and I'm sure we can make a decent game and prototype, and they're fun. And then we have a shared system that basically allows you to access the full capabilities of the hardware you run. That's going to be good whether you're running [software] on an iPhone, the Wii U, a gaming PC or whatever.
So what Unity is all about is the evolution from PC and you get really good cross-platform economics porting from one device to the other. But also, it's become layered between you and the hardware and layered between you and the controls. And you look back at some of the stuff we showed at the Unite Conference that we did about a month ago, and we showed some videos [ ] we were showing off our lighting technology and there's a demo of that, we call it a CG movie. It basically looks like a movie but it's actually in real-time.
There's a session where we walk in and pry open that movie and start moving things around and of course all of that technology we're making available.
