The whole study is divided in 4 parallel protocols. The first protocol estimates the reliability of the technique through test-retest recordings. The second protocol aims to prove that exercise Tcpo2 is efficient to estimate the benefit of proximal revascularisation on proximal and distal ischemia in patients suffering stage two lower extremity arterial disease. The third protocol aims at estimating with exercise tcpo2 the eventual apparison of proximal ischemia after aorto-bi-femoral bypasses. The last protocol is a transversal study of patients with aorto-bi-femoral bypasses aiming to analyse the presence of proximal and distal symptoms and ischemia.
The hypothesis for protocol 2 is that TcpO2 at exercise is significantly improved after surgery at the aortic and primary iliac artery. The hypothesis for protocols 3 and 4 relates on the hypothesis that a significant number of patients benefiting aorto-bi-femoral bypass suffer isolated proximal pain/ischemia after surgery.

About a month had passed since Manti Te'o last fielded questions from reporters, leaving the cynics among us to wonder if he was hiding something.
Turns out that he was — his smile.
In his first interaction with the media since mid-May, the Chargers rookie didn't divulge anything that would make a TMZ executive slobber, but on the opening day of minicamp, he did reveal a set of pearly whites that have spent some serious time in captivity. The grins weren't all that frequent, but they sure were genuine, and may have offered a glimpse into the Te'o we'll know in the future.
Ah, yes — the future. Can you imagine how glorious that word sounds to Manti? The linebacker has been living his own "Groundhog Day" for months with questions about the catfishing scandal surfacing whenever he steps in front of a mic.
Tuesday was no different, as the media teemed with curiosity after a month-long Te'o embargo. But the rookie handled every inquiry like a veteran, letting a little air out with each response until the topic was totally flat.
Then, something beautiful happened. The 22-year-old started taking questions about — brace yourself — football. And just like that, the lump of coal that was his mood turned into a diamond.
He beamed when discussing the challenge of defending Antonio Gates. He glowed when asked about his coaches' instructions. How happy are folks who switch to Geico? Happier than Manti Te'o talking nothing but football.
It was a welcome change of demeanor for a man who has had a helmet on his head and the world on his shoulders. And it also opened eyes to the possibility that Te'o not only will be embraced by this city but perhaps one day beloved.
It's easy to tell when an athlete's personality needs lights and a camera to spring into action. Manti, on the other hand, appears far more at home tracking down running backs and receivers.
Tuesday, he was incessantly hopping and hollering between plays at Chargers Park. Twenty-four hours after visiting kids at Legoland, he became one himself on the practice field.
That's the kind of player fan bases wrap in a bear hug and squeeze with all their might. It doesn't matter if their quotes are C-SPAN dull or if their pasts are Rodman-weird; if it's clear that they love what they're doing, they'll never be short on love.
"Honestly, that's how I am. I genuinely and truly love football," said Te'o, who regularly pointed to reporters Tuesday to make sure they got their questions answered. "All the energy, it's contagious."
Who knows how sincere Te'o has been in the past. Those claiming he was nothing but a victim in the fake girlfriend ordeal are probably a little naïve. But the Manti we saw Tuesday, the one embarrassed by the past, immersed in the present, and cheerful about the future — that guy seemed pretty genuine.
Philip Rivers answered numerous questions about Te'o after practice, one of which pertained to the "distraction" he might bring to the team. But the Chargers quarterback quickly dismissed the notion, asserting that Manti is "one of the guys" and that the catfishing story is "old and tired."

Soldiers Honoring Their Lord
The kings of the Eighteenth Dynasty extended Egyptian military influence from the Euphrates River in modern Iraq to sub-Saharan Africa. Their army consisted of highly trained professional soldiers led by an able officer corps drawn from the ranks of the Egyptian nobility.
This relief shows a group of such soldiers resting their staves on the ground and raising their arms in a gesture of veneration toward either the ruling monarch or their general. Note the wide range of ethnic types—no doubt an accurate reflection of the composition of the Egyptian military during the New Kingdom.

Windsor legislators reveal top issuesJanuary 01,2013
Toby Talbot Photo Senate Pro Tem John Campbell, D-Windsor, pictured at the Statehouse in 2012, is set to return when the Vermont Legislature reconvenes next week.The Herald invited every state legislator from Vermonts four southern counties to respond to the question, Whats your single most important issue for 2013 and why? Here are the answers from all the Windsor lawmakers who replied:
Sen. John Campbell, D-Windsor:
The Legislature faces a myriad of significant issues this upcoming biennium, but none more important than completing the reorganization of our mental health system. For too long, the recipients of these services have been put on the back burner while the various special interest groups debate their issues. In the meantime we spin our wheels struggling to make it all come together. Not only do we have a responsibility, but we have an obligation to meet the needs of these folks.
Sen. Dick McCormack, D-Windsor:
Patient choice addresses not how to die, but who should decide government (existing law) or individuals. Under the bill, patients decide according to their own beliefs and wishes, including the option of hastening inevitable, imminent death medically. In Oregon this has given dying people compassion, respect and peace of mind since 1997. None of the ghoulish scenarios opponents imagine have come to pass. Oregon leads in palliative and hospice care. Vermonters deserve no less.
Rep. John Bartholomew, D-Windsor-1 (Hartland, West Windsor, Windsor):
Require labeling of products made with genetically engineered ingredients. People want and have a right to know whats in their food.
Rep. Donna Sweaney, D-Windsor-1 (Hartland, West Windsor, Windsor):
The further establishment of health care for all Vermonters. For the past year I have had the experience of billing insurance companies for a health care provider. I find insurance companies regulations to be cumbersome and, I believe, intentionally convoluted, all of which inflates health care costs. I believe a single payer system can work. Vermont should pursue this course and demonstrate to the rest of the country that health coverage can and should be for all citizens.
Rep. Leigh Dakin, D-Windsor-3-1 (Andover, Baltimore, Chester, Springfield):
There is still so much work to be done since the devastating arrival and then departure of Irene, including the completion of a new mental health facility and the strengthening of our outpatient services in communities throughout the state to serve the mentally ill.
Rep. Alice Emmons, D/W-Windsor-3-2 (Springfield):
Addressing gang-related issues. This issue is a sleeper out there. Many of our Vermont communities are being targeted because the gangs see a market out there. We need to identify that market because gangs are a business and they go where they can make money.
Rep. Cynthia Martin, D/W-Windsor-3-2 (Springfield):
I am always interested in promoting procedures that keep people out of prison and will continue advocating specifically for the consideration of restorative justice practices whenever possible. Additionally, an issue in which I have become interested is the labeling of products, both those that are consumed and those that are applied to the body.
Rep. Teo Zagar, D-Windsor-4-1 (Barnard, Hartford, Pomfret):
The labeling of genetically modified organisms in our food supply. GMOs are widely prevalent in the food we consume, with approximately 80 to 90 percent of all soy, corn and canola ingredients being derived from genetic engineering. Vermonters have a right to know when they are consuming food products that have been created using technology that has not been proven safe for long-term human consumption.
Rep. Sheila Vowinkel, D-Windsor-4-2 (Hartford):
Strengthening the laws that support strong families and the communities in which they live. When communities provide a safe place to live, work, attend school and retire, families feel cared for and are more likely to stay engaged with our institutions. Employment opportunities, affordable housing, quality education and mental health services are, I believe, needed to help families and children. Building strong families builds healthier communities, which creates a vital community.
Rep. Alison Clarkson, D-Windsor-5 (Plymouth, Reading, Woodstock):
Having visited 1,847 homes during the course of my door-to-door campaigning it seems that everyone has a different priority for the Legislature. Here is a sampling: cellphone coverage, high-speed Internet access, streamlining licenses and fees for small businesses, health care costs and coverage, drug related crime and drug addictions, speed on our highways, noise from motorcycles, property taxes, quality and cost of education, environmental protection and economic development. And a few things Id like to accomplish: 1) Addressing the continuing challenges Tropical Storm Irene presents especially the rise in unemployment insurance tax rates for businesses which had to stop doing business while they cleaned up and regrouped; 2) Figuring out the financing of health care reform in Vermont; and 3) Continuing my work improving and strengthening the current use program essential to the health of Vermonts working landscape.
Rep. Sarah Buxton, D-Windsor-Orange-1 (Royalton, Tunbridge):
The recent uptick in crime in Vermont is a red flag to budget-builders that the old adage still rings true an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. Vermonters rightfully rely on us to help keep our citizens safe and healthy. In 2013, I am committed to turning our attention to the root causes of the crimes we are experiencing substance abuse, poverty, unmet mental health needs, isolation, and inadequate deterrence.
Rep. Margaret Cheney, D-Windsor-Orange-2 (Norwich, Sharon, Strafford, Thetford):
To help Vermonters who are vulnerable to continually rising heating costs. The price of oil and propane continues to rise for reasons beyond our control, but we have made little progress toward our statutory goal of winterizing 80,000 homes by 2020. We need an effective, low-cost way to help as many Vermonters as possible lower their heating bills, which will also lessen our greenhouse gas emissions and create jobs.
Rep. Jim Masland, D-Windsor-Orange-2 (Norwich, Sharon, Strafford, Thetford):
Against the immediate concerns about guns, violence in schools, budget shortfalls and getting the health care legislation right, my overriding concern is adapting our tax and revenue system to the realities of the 21st century. The current system is an adaptation to the economy of the 1950s, relies too heavily on the property tax, sales and an income tax that is still tied to then Bush tax cuts. The reality is that our sales tax base is being continuously eroded by online and out-of-state sales. Vermont gives away a billion dollars each year in tax credits, many of which have outlasted their usefulness. Its time to change our tax structure such that taxes are equitable and raise adequate revenue while supporting entrepreneurs and working families that make Vermont strong.
Rep. Sandy Haas, P/D-Windsor-Rutland (Bethel, Pittsfield, Rochester, Stockbridge):
The highest priority we face every session is crafting a state budget that provides for the needs of Vermont and its citizens. As in each of the past several years, we are facing a significant gap between projected revenue and projected budget needs. After years of successive cuts, we need to assure that we do not lose further ground in protecting Vermonters and maintaining our infrastructure resources.MORE IN Southern VermontBENNINGTON — Ask author and Bennington College graduate Charlotte Silver if the title of...

Untitled (right panel of a pair), from the Williamsburg Housing Project Murals
Paul Kelpe's Williamsburg Housing Project murals, like those of Bolotowsky, Greene, and Swinden, were conceived as entirely nonobjective compositions. However, they reveal a distinctly different approach to abstraction. Kelpe is unique among these artists for his strikingly unusual color combinations, his decorative patterning of selected fields of color, and his sculpturesque forms suggesting axial rotation.
Kelpe was a founding member of the American Abstract Artists and participated actively in the organization as an exhibitor and an officeholder. Despite the stance of unity among the organization's members in their desire to promote the acceptance of abstraction, Kelpe's work provoked considerable criticism from within the group. His critics, most of whom favored the gridded geometries inspired by Mondrian, deplored his persistence in maintaining an illusionistic, three-dimensional space in which his abstract geometric solids float.
Kelpe was thoroughly familiar with the European avant-garde. Born in Minden, Germany, he studied art history and architecture in Hanover, where he gained firsthand knowledge of the work of Kurt Schwitters, Wassily Kandinsky, and the Russian Constructivists, among others. After immigrating to the United States in 1925, he settled in Chicago in 1931. When he applied to the Chicago Regional Mural Division of the Federal Art Project, his application was denied because his bold abstract imagery did not correspond with the realistically rendered portrayals of American life that the Chicago office preferred. This rejection spurred him to move to New York City, where his abstractions found a more favorable response from Burgoyne Diller, who hired him to participate in the New York City Works Progress Administration Mural Program at Williamsburg.
Although Kelpe continued to paint and exhibit frequently, he also pursued more academic aspects of art and earned a master's degree and a doctorate in art history from the University of Chicago in 1948 and 1957, respectively. After teaching art history at the university level tor many years, he retired in 1969 to devote himself to painting.

Hire an internationally trained worker
New fees to be paid by employers and open work permit applicants are being introduced on February 21, 2015. There is also a new process that employers must follow when hiring Labour Market Impact Assessment-exempt foreign workers.
Read about the changes and how they may affect you.
If you are an employer, there are several programs you can use to:
- offer a full-time job to support a skilled worker's immigration to Canada,
- hire a foreign worker, or
- offer a paid internship to a permanent resident or new Canadian citizen.
Permanent workers
You can hire a skilled worker to fill vacancies on a permanent basis when you cannot find any Canadians or permanent residents for the job. Find out how to hire a worker through Express Entry, Canada's new application management system for skilled workers,launched on January 1, 2015.
Foreign workers
Through the Temporary Foreign Worker Program or the International Mobility Program, you can hire foreign nationals to work temporarily. You can hire foreign workers who are abroad or who are already in Canada.
You can fill skilled labour shortages by hiring a permanent resident or new Canadian citizen as an intern through the Federal Internship for Newcomers Program.
Francophone workers
Consider hiring a Francophone worker for a job outside Quebec. You could get hands-on support to find the candidate you need to fill a vacant position.
International students
You can hire students while they are studying or after they graduate.

Although originally established in 1947, Mansell McTaggart was subsequently bought by two of the current Directors in 1989 and initially successfully operated as a one-office branch working out of Burgess Hill, West Sussex. The company rapidly moved forward and now boasts seventeen high-profile offices in Sussex and into Surrey, offering unrivalled levels of quality, service and value, being members of the Guild of Professional Estate Agents with a network that includes the Guild's National Property Centre on the prestigious Park Lane in Mayfair, London. Furthermore the offices are members of the Ombudsman scheme and many of our directors are members of the NAEA.
Now established for almost 25 years, Mansell McTaggart is a forward-moving company always eager to expand with little regard for economic predictions but instead confidently working on a careful 'thought process' as to new areas we feel would benefit from an established independent brand. Newly opened offices are always complimented by our nearby branches, all being carefully linked and strategically located to provide a vast team of property professionals throughout the mid-Sussex areas. All sixteen branches are under the guidance of separate directors and, backed by their knowledgeable and enthusiastic teams, market-expertise and experience is guaranteed within all the individual areas of Sussex.
Although at the forefront of market technology with all offices linked by a computer network, the company still believes that any advance in technology never takes the place of 'local-knowledge', commitment and the all-important 'personal service' to clients and to those seeking to embark on any aspect of the 'property world'.
Mansell McTaggart also has a Land and New Homes division specifically designed to identify and maximise the potential and value of development opportunities, not only helping larger National developers, but also offering advice to the general public and local developers and in this regard the company has acquired, advised on and sold a large number of sites within Sussex during recent years.

In Fall of 1995, Old Dominion University became the first state-assisted school in Virginia to offer a major as well as a minor in women's studies. The B.A. or B.S. in women's studies requires 33 credit hours of women's studies and cross-listed course work-- perfect to stand on its own as an interesting and challenging course of study, or useful as a second major. This degree will help prepare you for graduate school or for occupational opportunities in law, criminal justice, teaching, public relations, journalism, counseling, government, social work, business and the education.
Our courses are stimulating and engaging, with rich class discussion and clear applicability to the world around you. We also cross-list courses on women from many different departments each semester. Even if you choose not to major or minor in women's studies, you can still find many individual women's studies courses that help you meet general education requirements (e.g., 390T: Women and Technology) and give you a rewarding educational experience in the process.
Women's Studies Courses
A double major will give you a solid knowledge base in two fields rather than one, and increase the range of employment opportunities for which you will be an attractive candidate. You can do this with only a modest number of additional courses by counting up to three (or, more for English majors) courses toward both majors. For example, Women's Studies cross-lists a number of sociology courses, including the following:
• SOC 303: Introduction to Marriage and the Family
• SOC 320: Women and Crime
• SOC 340: Sociology of Women
• SOC 343: Sociology of Sexuality
• SOC 427: Violence Against Women
Any of these courses can be counted toward your Women's Studies degree and your Sociology degree. A major in women's studies is 33 credit hours. By double counting three courses from sociology, you would only need 24 additional hours in women's studies to complete the double major.
A minor in women's studies will increase students' career opportunities in law, criminal justice, teaching, public relations, journalism, counseling, government, social work, education and many other fields, and/or it will prepare students for new and exciting research opportunities in graduate school. Students may pursue a minor in women's studies as a complement to any major, thereby fulfilling upper division general education requirements.
Students who have completed WMST 201S may earn a minor in Women's Studies by completing 12 credits at the 300-400 level. Students must maintain a 2.0 GPA. The credits should be distributed as follows:
Required Courses (9 credits):
One additional WMST course OR a Course from another discipline that is cross-listed with WMST (3 credits)
The accelerated MA Program in Humanities allows exceptional majors in women's studies to count up to 12 hours of graduate courses toward both an undergraduate and graduate degree. This degree program makes it possible for students with a demonstrated record of academic excellence to earn both a B.A. or B.S. in Women's Studies and a M.A. in Humanities in five years.

Carrying on the Tradition
Service. A longstanding part of the St. Edward's mission, there's no doubt that serving the community shapes each student's experience on the hilltop and beyond. Alumni give of themselves in two very meaningful ways to ensure the continuation of a 125-year legacy.
Giving Your Time
As active volunteers, St. Edward's Alumni Association members lead their local chapters, serve on advisory boards, mentor students and volunteer for phonathons and Homecoming and Family Weekend. Through networking receptions and projects such as Toys for Tots and The Big Event, alumni unite — and re-create the sense of community they knew as students.
Alumni also give their time and talent to the next generation of students at St. Edward's. They volunteer at college recruiting fairs in their area. They mentor students who share their interests; speak on panels about their major and career; and visit with graduating seniors about the benefits of being alumni.

Two men seen walking down a Portland street armed with assault rifles told police they were exercising their Second Amendment rights and hoping to educate the public on gun rights.
Several calls were made to 911 on Wednesday afternoon, with alarmed residents reporting two men with guns strapped to their backs walking through the area of Southeast Seventh Avenue and Spokane Street in Portland's Sellwood neighborhood.
When police arrived on the scene, they found two 22-year-old men carrying rifles openly on their backs. The two were also holding valid concealed handgun licenses in Oregon, according to Fox affiliate KPTV.
The men reportedly told officers that they were seeking to educate onlookers about their Second Amendment rights.
"Exercising my rights with a rifle to try to decrease the demonizing of peacefully exercising your rights in public," one of the men, who declined to release his full name, told the station.
Officers said carrying firearms openly is legal in Oregon and carrying a concealed gun is legal with a valid license, according to the station. But doing one or both may generate 911 calls and possibly tie up resources that are needed for a real emergency.
One of the men told the station that he hoped people would approach him and talk to him, instead of calling police.
Posted 10 January 2013 - 18:35
Then the public needs to educate themselves better about what is a legal act and what is not, so that they dont call 911 for no reason.
Those that called to report these guys need to be charged with unlawful use of the 911 services, its for reporting emergencies, not to spam dial because you are scared.
I see the media still doesnt know what an "Assault rifle" is and still tries to label AR-15's as such, idiots.

i don't care what the pro-gunners say, any pro-gunner would have been concerned too. I am willing to bet all I own even that any pro-gunner, if walking with their children, would have went in the opposite direction of these 2 gunners. If you say you wouldn't have, I know you are lying.

There was a case in a Michigan city where a guy was arrested for carrying his rifle dosn main street - to a gun shop for work.
The problem is that "Open Carry", carrying an exposed weapon, is not illegal in Michigan, nor is it considered "brandishing." He was bailed out, and then about 25 of his fellow citizens marched through town with their weapons - everything from 9mm pistols to M-14's and AR-15's. Quite a parade - men and women.
No one even batted an eye because the citizenry knew the law better than the cops did. Open carry's been legal since the 1940's.
When it got to court the judge tossed the case, then hammered the cops and prosecutor for wasting everyone's time & violating the guys rights.
He's now suing the city and cops for a civil rights violation. He'll win if they don't settle first.

Just as the Festa Mayor de Gracia finishes, Be Hostels invites you to another big neighborhood Festa Mayor that begins in the Sants district of Barcelona. During the last week in August, the popular district of Sants refreshes the streets with its Fiesta Mayor.
Although not quite as famous as Gracia, the "Festa Major de Sants" is also worth visiting. Many of the main activities take place in "Parque de la España Industrial" and 13 streets in Sants will be decorated by the residents with many entertaining themes. A Catalan celebrity usually opens the festival at the "Parque de la España Industrial". There will be many chances to see festivals traditions like correfocs – fireruns, castellers – human tower building, Gegants and capgrossos – giants and other Catalan festival traditions; the Sants festivities have nothing to envy other areas.
A highlight of the Sants Festa Major is the Sants Festival cycling race, called the Cursa Ciclista 'Memorial Antoni Andrés Sancho' which takes place for the 30th time in 2011 on streets of Sants and the new running event, which premiered in 2010 called "El 2000 de SantsCursa atlètica de la Festa Major" which is a 2k run (2 circuits of 1000 metres) and usually on the last Sunday of the festival. The Sants neighbourhood festival ends on 3rd September with a pyromusical fireworks and music evening.
Come and join us at Be Hostels in Barcelona to enjoy the Sants neighbourhood festival!

Do you guys think I should stick it out with a randomly rebooting sim only Galaxy Nexus or is the Note 2 really that good that I would be silly not to upgrade with their offer?

I just gave up my iPhone 4S for a Galaxy Note 2 and I couldn't be happier. The Note 2 is a great phone. Go for it.
I bought a Note II Wednesday and I returned it today and exchanged it for an S3. The reasons:
1. The Note II was just too big to carry around
2. The screen was not as bright and sharp as the S3.
3. The text messenger UI was laggy. The S3 for some reason is not.
4. The Home Button was also laggy. The S3 did not have that problem.
5. The Email UI was doing funny things earlier today. Flashing and stuff. Not good.
Maybe in the future I will get a Galaxy Note 3 or 4 or 5. We'll see down the road.
Posted 06 December 2012 - 20:09
The Note 2 is a great phone, but I returned mine after a week, couldn't get used to the size (I have small hands though). Apart from the size everything else was perfect, so if you have big hands (and are unhappy with your current phone) go for it.
Did you end up exchanging the S3 back to the Note 2?
Posted 06 December 2012 - 20:35
Posted 06 December 2012 - 21:35
I have a Note 2 now, My S3 died so it's being sent for repair, I bought the Note 2 yesterday, rooted and Wanamlite ROM and here are my thoughts:
First full day at work with the N2 and given the same kind of usage as I used to give the S3 running Wanamlite as well.
The battery life is much better, I unplug the phone around 7AM when the alarm goes and normally by the time I'd get home at 4:30PM I'd have between 30 and 50% battery left (maybe less if screen on time was higher) as I like to listen to music, surf, whatsapp and email on the way to/from work but on the N2, even with the bigger screen I'm sitting here right now (as of 18:55) with:
I use auto brightness and at work have WiFi switched off. One big thing I noticed was that even in places at work where the S3 struggled to load the web as signal strength peaked -90dBm, the Note 2 has no trouble even at -107 :eek:
The audio quality was a surprise as well, I use PowerAMP and the bass on the Note II is a little lower than the S3 but the treble and spaciousness of the sound is more clear, there's more warmth in the sound playing through the Vsonic GR07 IEMs, it's less 'closed room' than the S3 is.
The built in speaker is WAY louder and clearer than the S3, I played the latest Star Trek movie trailer and I properly enjoyed the big screen and big sound.
One handed operation? It's not as easy to use one handed as the S3 of course as it's quite slippery, once the case arrives I'll decide further on this as the S3 was slippery one handed as well but I had little issue using the phone one handed on the walk home listening to music.
Portability vs the S3... It is a bit thicker than the S3 but it fits in my top pocket without a huge problem, feels at home even.
What I like about it most compared to the S3 is how it's faster at doing everything, the camera loads faster, apps switch faster and there's over 700MB of RAM free whereas the S3 was always reaching within 100MB of the limit.
The screen is amazing, simply put! I haven't actually made proper use of the stylus properly yet, I need to download stylus enabled apps to play with as well but the responsiveness of it is near instant and I'm liking it a lot.
Here are a few comparisons to the Galaxy S3 showing audio quality of the speaker vs the S3:
If anyone wants me to compare anything else against the S3 then I'll be happy to do whatever
As of (20:55) the screen on time is 3hrs 16mins, uptime is 12hrs 15mins. I've been doing the tests above at 100% brightness so that took some off but at this rate I can see 6 hours screen on time and 24 hours battery life :eek:
I have noticed one bug and maybe it's Wanamlite ROM but if you turn off autobrightness then the screen won't autorotate even if autorotate is enabled. Bit weird but I use auto brightness anyway. Speaking of this, autobrightness is better on the NOte II than on the S3, it's less jumpy and more pleasing, more battery friendly too.
Posted 07 December 2012 - 09:13
Great!!!!!. The autorotate deal must be your ROM because mine is not rooted and that doesn't happen to mine.

Elizabeth Kelly Gray died Dec. 7, 2010, in Houston, Texas. She was born Dec. 17, 1918, in Summerville, S.C.,to the late Cherry Lou Harvey Kelly and John Granberry Kelly.
She was preceded in death by her husband, Malcolm G. "Red" Gray, her parents, a sister and brother-in-law, Cherry Dell and Doug Lee of Kingston, Ontario, her brother John G. Kelly of Greenville, South Carolina, and a nephew Charles Richard Kelly of Columbia, South Carolina.
She is survived by one sister and brother-in-law, Jule Hart Kelly Canaday and DeArmond Canaday of Greenwood, S.C., and one sister-in-law, Terry Cheatham Kelly. She is also survived by two sons, Malcolm Gray, Jr. and his wife, Ruth, and the Rev. Melvin K. Gray of Houston, Texas; and a daughter, Patricia Gray of Galveston, Texas.
Her descendents include five grandchildren and six great grandchildren; Monica Opincar and her husband, John, Alex and Lila Opincar of Katy, Texas; Naylor Gray and his wife, Laura, Isaac and Edie Gray of San Antonio, Texas; Amelia Tyler and her husband, Chris, and Maria Tyler of Austin, Texas; Kelly Gray and fiancé, Kara Matheny, and Bethany Gray and son, Dylan, of Houston, Texas.
Mrs. Gray graduated from Winthrop College in Rock Hill, S.C, and earned a master of arts degree in journalism from the University of Iowa. She published the Clemson News in Clemson, S.C, for her master's thesis prior to her marriage.
She worked as executive assistant to Mississippi State College President Ben Hilbun, executive secretary to Dr. Clyde Sheely for the National Science Foundation Program at Mississippi State University and also served as adjunct professor of English.
She loved language and family meals often ended with a dictionary on the table as one child or another defended his or her word choice. She was also a stickler for the use of correct grammar, a trait that sometimes resulted in a letter home being returned with suggested corrections.
She brooked little foolishness from those who indulge in self-pity, but was a champion for those she felt were being taken advantage of. She challenged liquor store owners she caught selling to minors and payday lenders who, in her view, preyed on the poor.
She was generous to individuals she saw struggling to help themselves, but criticized many organized charities as too free with administrative expenses, and not free enough with promised benefits. She, along with the local AAUW, was a driving force in getting the first mental health clinic started in Northeast Mississippi in the 1950s.
She had a lifelong interest in genealogy, listened to the opera every Saturday afternoon on the radio, was an avid bridge player, and maintained beautiful flower gardens around her home in Starkville, Mississippi prior to her move to Houston in 1999.
With her late husband, she fed large crowds on football weekends at Mississippi State, made her children's friends welcome at all times and presided over neighborhood gatherings punctuated by children playing kick the can on warm summer evenings.
She once calmly wore golf ball size cork and sequin earrings made by one of her children as a craft project while she and Red welcomed their bridge club for dessert and an evening of bridge.
She was a shrewd businesswoman who successfully managed her own investments with a preference for companies that have women on their board of directors and an avoidance of companies that paid what she viewed as excessive executive compensation.
The family will receive visitors at Welch Funeral Home at 201 W. Lampkin Street from 4 to 6 p.m. Sunday.
Burial will be at 9:30 a.m. Monday, Dec. 13, at the Oktibbeha Memorial Gardens Cemetery, followed by services at 11 a.m. at the Episcopal Church of the Resurrection at 105 N. Montgomery St. in Starkville.
A luncheon reception will follow in the Parish Hall (adjacent to the church) at the conclusion of the service.
In lieu of flowers the family requests that memorials be made to the Episcopal Church of the Resurrection in Starkville, St. Vincent's House in Galveston, Texas or Houston Hospice in Houston, Texas.
Condolences may be expressed to the family online by visiting the website at http://www.welchfuneralhomesinc.com [1].

HSBC "lift" by Grey London
Agency: Grey London
Rating: 5.0
campaignlive.co.uk, Thursday, 13 December 2012 08:00AM
Fowles helped PHD become the first media agency to win an IPA Effectiveness award during his 15-year stint there. Now at Manning Gottlieb OMD, he is also responsible for helping the shop scoop the Grand Prix at this year's IPA Effectiveness Awards and the Media Grand Prix in Cannes for its work for Google. Not a bad year's work.
With more than 20 years' experience in media, including time as a strategy director at Bartle Bogle Hegarty, Adams has been at the helm of award-winning campaigns for the Kingly Street agency and now Goodstuff Communications. At Goodstuff, where he is the managing partner, Adams channels top-class strategic thinking alongside the agency's founding partner and planning guru, Ben Hayes. The pair are helping Goodstuff punch above its weight at industry awards.
If David Pattison, Nick Horswell and Jonathan Durden were still working at PHD, they would have had to add another letter to the agency acronym: "W". Wilding's intelligence and capacity for delivering fine insights are evident throughout the clever and creative planning that is part of the agency's DNA. When his eyes open wide like Doc's in Back To The Future, you know he's on to a good thing.
As one of Campaign's 30 Under 30 this year, Zenith Media's Shah has bowled over his agency and the industry alike. He led the strategic work on the agency's biggest win in the past year – Royal Bank of Scotland Retail.
"Hooky" is back on UK shores after a two-year stint in New York. Having built his career at Vizeum UK, he has returned to the meaty job of leading Carat's planning product. A Cambridge graduate, he is a thoughtful and cerebral personality. Planner friends at other agencies are worried about his return, because he is "really good".
As the chief strategy officer at the UK's largest media agency, Unerman is responsible for ensuring the planning proposition for MediaCom's 200-plus clients is market-leading. Not content with such a huge undertaking, Unerman also managed to co-author one of the most influential marketing books of 2012, Tell The Truth.
Habib has a solid reputation as a creative planner. As the head of the strategy, intelligence and ideas teams at MPG Media Contacts, he forms a credible double act with the agency's strategy high priestess, Marie Oldham.
He may have slipped down the list a little, but MEC's Sullivan-Martin is still at the top of his game. His highlight this year was winning the communications planning for the Department of Health and working on behaviour-change challenges, including the "Stoptober" campaign.
The former Mother strategy director made the switch back to media last year to join Mindshare. This, despite saying in 2008: "If I had stayed in media, my next job would have been a global strategy officer and I'd have ended up committing suicide in an airport toilet."
Morris has that rare combination of planning talent and the ability to charm clients, which is why he is one of the few planners to have made it to a managing director role and take to it like a duck to water. Having taken over the reins from Grant Millar at Vizeum, the strategy-led agency is in extremely capable hands.

Lots of buzz online right now about Travis Brown and AO verbally agreeing to fight at UFC 164 in Milwaukee. Nothing confirmed yet, but how does everyone see this fight going down?
I have AO by TKO but i could see Brown stealing this much like Bigfoot did against AO.
Sick fight either way IMO.

Eco Lumen
Lighting design software, structured to recommend lighting designs that optimize the electricity bills while ensuring appropriate illumination levels in the facility as per ISI standards. The software is built around a user-friendly interface and requires elementary inputs such as room dimensions and usage parameters. The software can then recommend the most appropriate lighting equipment for the facility as well as the optimum number of fittings required. For existing facilities, Eco Lumen recommends the most appropriate upgrade options, for replacing the existing lighting products with more energy efficient ones. Eco Lumen also offers the option of re-using any applicable fittings for the room being designed, thus reducing the renovation cost for the facility. Screen Shots
lighting design, energy efficient
Eco Lumen has been validated against results from some of the leading lighting design software.
Expertise Required
No training is required for using Eco Lumen. The accompanying Help & User Manual provide any run-time assistance that may be needed by the user.
More than 3000 users are estimated to be using the software internationally.
Targeted at Facility Managers for any organisation, useful for architects, lighting designers and energy auditors.
The user needs to provide elementary information such as room dimensions and color, and usage pattern (purpose for which room is used, amount of time for which room is used, applicable energy tariff etc). Eco Lumen provides data such ISI standard recommended Illumination levels based on the purpose for which the room is used. Eco Lumen also allows users to select the desired lighting products for the facility from the database available with the software.
Eco Lumen provides customizable reports, allowing the user to select any or all of the input parameters as well as the lighting design details, energy consumption details and financial implications (such as pay back analysis and life cycle costing) as the report parameters. Eco Lumen also provides comparison reports in case of renovation or upgrade designs. Further, pre-formatted print reports are also available to the user.
Computer Platform
Eco Lumen runs on any Windows 9x or higher platform
Programming Language
Visual Basic 6.0, with MS Access as the database

Al Gore Sells Current Network To Al-Jazeera
Posted by KingShamus on January 3, 2013
Alternate Headline: Two Bloated Government-Subsidized Anti-American Entities Collide.
Al Jazeera, the pan-Arab news giant, has long tried to convince Americans that it is a legitimate news organization, not a parrot of Middle Eastern propaganda or something more sinister.
It just bought itself 40 million more chances to make its case.
Al Jazeera on Wednesday announced a deal to take over Current TV, the low-rated cable channel that was founded by Al Gore, a former vice president, and his business partners seven years ago. Al Jazeera plans to shut Current and start an English-language channel, which will be available in more than 40 million homes, with newscasts emanating from both New York and Doha, Qatar.
Current doesn't even sorta compete with bottom-crawler MSNBC.
Whatevs. If the Old Grey Lady wants to soft-pedal Al Gore's failure as a broadcaster, that's fine. Every breathless teeny-bopper wants to believe her idol is infallible.
Now, here's the best part.
Mr. Gore and his partners were eager to complete the deal by Dec. 31, lest it be subject to higher tax rates that took effect on Jan. 1, according to several people who insisted on anonymity because they were not authorized to speak publicly.
Because when Mitt Romney uses legal ways to avoid taxes, he's a ghoulish blood-sucker. When Al Gore does it, there is nothing to see here. Thank for clearing that up, New York Times.
UPDATE: Time Warner Cable liked this deal so much they dropped Al-Gorezeeeera from their channel roster. Hey Qatari media geniuses–if you've got $500 million dollars just laying around doing nothing, this blog is officially for sale. Direct message me on Twitter. Let's make some magic happen.

Al Jazeera contacted me as well. They wanted to buy my blog but we couldn't agree on a price. I wanted 500 million. They were going to give me a 14 year old boy and a goat.
Wait…wasn't Al Jazeera in the Herb Albert and the Tijuana Brass?

American ExperienceThe Rise and Fall of Penn Station | Sunday, 8 p.m.
One of the greatest architectural and engineering achievements of its time, New York's Pennsylvania Station opened to the public in 1910. Designed by renowned architect Charles McKim, the station was a massive civil engineering project, covering nearly eight acres and requiring the construction of 16 miles of underground tunnels.
Alexander Cassatt, president of the Pennsylvania Railroad, gambled millions of dollars to link the nation's biggest railroad to America's greatest city, but died bringing the station to life. No one could imagine that this architectural marvel built for the ages would be torn down a few decades later to make way for Madison Square Garden. Yet its destruction galvanized New York to form the Landmarks Preservation Commission, saving Grand Central Station and countless other historic structures.

A few ingredients come to Ed's mind when he thinks about his adopted state: country ham, sorghum and smoke. Ed visits Nancy Newsom, still making her family's ham with their century-old recipe, with Southern food historian and Atlanta chef Linton Hopkins. Then it's off to Owensboro with homegrown chef Ouita Michel to make a dish featuring two more local ingredients: smoke and spoonbill caviar. Yes, caviar from Kentucky. And finally, Ed places Kentucky's most prized crop — sorghum — on a pedestal and creates a decadent ice cream with the viscous, sweet, earthy amber syrup.

When Did You Start at WEIU? 2010
Favorite Show on WEIU-TV: This is a tough one! I'm a fan of everything we do both on the air as well as in the world of education. But truth be told, my favorites are locally produced programs. Heartland Highways gives me a chance to see some of the many amazing places in this wonderful area we call home. I've seen places on Heartland Highways that lifelong east central Illinois residents didn't know existed...and then made the short drive to see those places up close and personal myself. And I've learned so much about some of the most interesting people who are our neighbors.
Another of my top three would be Four Rivers Ag Report. Though I'm not a farmer, I live on a working farm and see the daily ag activity that drives our area. No matter what we do, we are a part of agriculture. And I find that fascinating. The things I've learned about our farm community as a result of Four Rivers are pretty amazing. And as much as Four Rivers Ag Report focuses on the farmers in our area, it does just as good a job of celebrating our rural lifestyle.
Last but not least is News Watch. There is nowhere else to find the kind of coverage News Watch provides our area. Even in a world of 24/7 online and cable/satellite news services, I find News Watch the only place to watch and learn what's happening in OUR community. It's unique.
What have you learned while working at WEIU? This could be a chapter in itself!In my case, I came to WEIU after working in public broadcasting for decades.I'd worked for many stations in many parts of the country. My fascination with WEIU was two-fold: The fact that WEIU is MORE than a PBS station, and the opportunity to live in this incredible community. Being a part of a non-commercial TV station that goes so far beyond programming what most PBS stations provide has allowed me to learn an amazing number of new things about our world. And being in the east central Illinois community has taught me just how special and unique this place is. I've learned that what may appear on the outside to be an unchanging environment becomes a wealth of different sights, sounds and experiences with the march of the seasons, the constantly varying weather and the beautiful lighting variations of each passing day.
Why should someone become a member of WEIU? WEIU is certainly not like most TV stations. We're obviously nothing like a commercial TV station which is funded by commercials based on the number of people watching each program. Yet, we're also different than most non-commercial TV stations, as well ... both in what we air and who we aim to serve. And that's important to me. As I've seen more of the media universe surround us with an array of programs, news, shopping channels and pretty much anything you could imagine, I still find WEIU the ONLY place where I can learn about MY neighbors and MY community. I know such a service is not going to be supported by other communities or by commercial sponsors. I frankly wouldn't expect it to be. So I find it important to support that service that serves me and the people who are my neighbors. It seems to be part of the American way of taking care of those things that are important to us. At least that's how I see it!
WEIU is very important to me and I hope to you, as well.

The Weight of the Nation
A collaborative 4-part documentary series on the obesity epidemic in the USA by the IOM, HBO, CDC, NIH, and Kaiser Permanente.
OA & UEAR Guidelines Available
Two vital Clinical Practice Guidelines (CPGs) that address the VA/DoD population now available.
VHA, in collaborations with the Department of Defense (DoD) and other leading professional organizations, has been developing clinical practice guidelines since the early 1990s. In 2010 the Institute of Medicine identified VA/DoD as leaders in clinical practice guideline development.
Implementation of evidence-based clinical practice guidelines is one strategy VHA has embraced to improve care by reducing variation in practice and systematizing "best practices". Guidelines, as generic tools to improve the processes of care for patient cohorts, serve to reduce errors, and provide consistent quality of care and utilization of resources throughout the system. Guidelines also are cornerstones for accountability and facilitate learning and the conduct of research. The guidelines on this site are those endorsed by VHA's National Clinical Practice Guidelines Council.

What's New!
CPG resources
Clinical practice guidelines are increasingly being used in health care to improve patient care and as a potential solution to reduce inappropriate variations in care. Guidelines should be evidence-based as well as based upon explicit criteria to ensure consensus regarding their internal validity.
The use of guidelines must always be in the context of a health care provider's clinical judgment in the care of a particular patient. For that reason, the guidelines may be viewed as an educational tool to provide information and assist decision making.
