News reports of scandal, fraud and corruption might lead some to believe that such elements are unavoidable evils that come with success in the business world.
Not according to Jon M. Huntsman.
His book "Winners Never Cheat: Everyday Values We Learned as Children (But May Have Forgotten)" is required reading this year. Jon Huntsman is chairman and founder of the Huntsman Corporation. Huntsman founded the company with his brother, Blaine, in 1970. By the year 2005 when it went public, it had become the world's largest privately held chemical company with more than $12 billion in annual revenues.
Last July the Huntsman Corporation announced that Hexion Specialty Chemicals planed to buy the firm for $10.6 billion, a deal that will include the assumption of debt. The transaction must first be approved by Huntsman shareholders and receive regulatory approval in the United States and Europe.
The book promotes basic values such as keeping your word, being gracious and playing by the rules. Huntsman speaks from experience and offers clear and direct insight such as this: ". . .in the winner-take-all atmosphere of today's marketplace, shortcuts to success, at least initially, are alluring, and lying often can be lucrative. That said, scammers, cheaters, spitball pitchers, shelland- pea artists, and the like historically have never prevailed for long. And when their fall does come, it is fast, painful, and lasting."
Dean Douglas D. Anderson said the book was selected because its message is not only key to what the Jon M. Huntsman School of Business is trying to teach but is a wake-up call to a business world that in many cases seems to have forgotten basic lessons that were once commonly understood.
"The book's message is powerful because it is coming from someone who has demonstrated in his life and business dealings the value of integrity," Anderson said. "Jon Huntsman has earned financial success and done so without sacrificing his own values on the road to the top."

CONSTABLEVILLE The South Lewis community is mourning the loss of a high school senior who died over spring break of an apparent medical issue.
Its like part of our family, said Sharon M. Smith, cosmetology instructor at the Howard G. Sackett Technical Center in Glenfield. Very tough.
Kaylee R. Croniser, 18, Constableville, who was a second-year student majoring in cosmetology at the center with plans to pursue a career in that field, last Wednesday apparently suffered some type of medical problem at her Croniser Road home, said Dale W. Roberts, senior investigator with the Lewis County Sheriffs Department.
However, no official cause of death could be determined from an autopsy conducted by Dr. Samuel A. Livingstone, Lewis Countys coroners physician, according to Mr. Roberts.
Its just an unanswered tragedy, he said.
Further laboratory test results may eventually shed more light on the situation, but those wont be available for some time, he said.
There is no criminal investigation in the case, Mr. Roberts said.
She got along with everybody, Mrs. Smith said.
Cosmetology students spend 2� hours each school day, as well as Monday evenings, together, so they tend to develop a bond with their instructors and fellow students, she said.
Upon returning from spring break Monday, the class met with grief counselors, then made a paper chain with messages to Miss Croniser and her parents, Mrs. Smith said.
The funeral service, overseen by Trainor Funeral Home, Boonville, also was held Monday morning.
It was, in general, a rough week, Mrs. Smith said.
The cosmetology instructor on Monday also provided an emailed statement concerning her memories of Miss Croniser.
Kaylee Croniser will be greatly missed by all of her cosmetology classmates and instructors, she wrote. Kaylee from day one brought a true passion for doing hair. I remember how her face beamed when I was telling her mom about how talented Kaylee was. Kaylee loved to style long hair into the most beautiful, elegant styles. She was a natural. Even more noteworthy was Kaylees genuine kind heart. She was always the type of student to ask me if I needed help with anything. Kaylee shared her love of music, dance and doing hair with her classmates. It was definitely a tearful goodbye today.
Our thoughts and prayers go out to the family and friends, said South Lewis Central School District Superintendent Douglas E. Premo, who met with family members Friday.
Mr. Premo, whose district also dealt with the death of a high school student during the previous school year, said counselors from local organizations and other area districts have been on hand at school since Thursday and will continue to be available to those who need them.
Our library becomes our counseling center during a crisis like this, he said.
Staff members were informed of the situation last week, and accommodations were made for any who wished to attend services for Miss Croniser, Mr. Premo said.
About half the senior class was either absent Monday or left school early, he said.
Miss Croniser, the daughter of Richard W. and Rose A. Weber Croniser, was a member of the junior varsity volleyball team and the high school chorus, according to her obituary.
Two Facebook memorial pages have been established for Miss Croniser, with roughly 1,500 followers combined.
Messages left on the boards described her as a patient and kind person who always had a smile on her face and had the ability to make others laugh.
Others expressed their condolences to her parents and family.
Your daughter is a beautiful, sweet girl, who can only make heavens light a little brighter for all of us left behind, one person posted.

Point Foundation empowers promising LGBTQ students to achieve their full academic and leadership potential – despite the obstacles often put before them – to make a significant impact on society.
Throughout grammar school, Navidra Hardin was known as "the gay kid" and upon entering high school, he was determined to have a fresh start—a straight start. He made it a priority to show off how straight he was by being anti‐gay. Shortly after Navidra's father passed away in 2009, he realized that life is too short to have regrets and finally came out of the closet --- despite his family's views that homosexuality is "unnatural" and "sinful." To his surprise, Navidra's school community was mostly supportive. Still, being the only openly gay student in a Catholic school presented many obstacles: he was discouraged from starting a Gay-Straight Alliance and other LGBTQ-related activities. Things also proved even more difficult at home: upon coming out to his family, they cut off all financial assistance to him. Still, Navidra has persevered and uses these negative events as motivation in all aspects of his life, none the least of which are his educational pursuits. In keeping with his love of writing and speaking, Navidra is attending Emerson College to study Journalism.

Something Just Isn't Right
Tommy DeeI don't know what it is but I just still get this weird vibe…the vibe of a team without Amar'e, and one with Amar'e.
I understand it's one game. I understand that this integration will take time, something the Knicks can afford right now as they are in second place in the Eastern Conference and comfortably 5 games up in the loss column for the Atlantic lead.
For now.
I also understand that with Amar'e's contract being uninsured it would seem a long shot to trade his contract, but here's my thing, there was a feeling to last night's game that just didn't add up for me and that is a growing concern for me. Add that to the report that the Knicks tried feverishly to deal him this summer and what you have is a potential mess in the making in my opinion.
I'm an optimist. I think it can work, but I have to admit the way Stoudemire was used last night made me scratch my head. First of all Jason Kidd had his worst game as a Knick, in my opinion, because having Stoudemire at the foul lines extended (and often lost there) affected space. Kidd needs that space to utilize his shot fake and to step in to catch 3s. Amar'e seemed in the way a lot with the first unit, which, again, is common, but it's also become a habit.
Woodson only called pick and roll with Melo and Stoudemire twice. The first attempt was canceled by good sideline defense and ball pressure the led to his first basket on a slick pass from Melo. More please! Playing together, Melo managed just one field goal.
I was horrified when I saw the 5 of Stoudemire, Smith, Prigioni, Novak and Copeland from a rebounding standpoint. They played okay, but moving forward that isn't a sustainable unit in rotation. That's not a 5 you can put out on the floor and get a consistent plus in my opinion. Too many holes, especially when Novak isn't making any shots. Something to keep an eye on.
But by far the broader point is that I get the sense that something is up and have for a while. Again, they can be patient but for how long? This team cannot afford to drop below the 4th seed. They need home court in the first round. The team is win-now and can't afford anything to jeopardize this first half success.
Food for thought: Can they find an insurance company to insure Amar'e's now $40 million dollar knee for the last 2 years of his contract? Isn't that far less of a risk than the 5-year, near $100 price tag? Can they renegotiate Amar'e's contract thus increasing the chances of trading him to slightly greater than zero?

Our group is conducting research to uncover fundamental principles of biological computation: what biological systems compute, and how this computation is performed. We are also developing methods for programming computation in biological systems. Our research currently focuses on fundamentals of Biological Computation, with applications in Immunology and Development, together with principles of Programming Life, with applications in DNA Computing and Synthetic Biology.
Current projects include designing molecular circuits made of DNA, and programming synthetic biological devices to perform complex functions over time and space. We also aim to understand the computation performed by cells during organ development, and how the adaptive immune system detects viruses and cancers, focusing on mechanism and function. We are tackling these questions through the development of computational models and domain-specific computational tools, in close collaboration with leading scientific research groups. The tools we develop are being integrated into a common software environment, which supports simulation and analysis across multiple scales and domains. This environment will serve as the foundation for a common language runtime for biological computation.

New York Air Brake announced Tuesday it will close its Knorr Brake Ltd. facility in Kingston, Ontario, and move to its Watertown headquarters up to 50 jobs to manufacture locomotive braking products.
The phased transition will start in the fall, and operations are expected to cease at the Kingston plant by early 2014, according to an Air Brake news release. The Kingston plant, which was launched in 1974 as a machine shop, produces locomotive brake systems that are transported to Watertown before they are shipped to customers.
The estimated 50 jobs that will be created will support the production of brake systems at the Watertown plant, 748 Starbuck Ave. The company said the move was inspired by its long-term vision to improve its cost structure and make its headquarters in Watertown the sole location for the design, testing and production of heavy-haul freight products.
President Michael J. Hawthorne said in the release that moving production of locomotive products here is a natural step to consolidate manufacturing under one roof. Though the Kingston plant has contributed to productivity gains, he said, two factors motivated the closure.
"First is the globalization of the company's business, which places greater pressure to reduce costs to a level that allows Air Brake to compete effectively in the worldwide marketplace," he said in the statement. "Second is the strategic direction it has established across the organization to align its factories with its product lines and services to achieve planned productivity, flexibility and efficiency improvements necessary in Watertown if we are going to be successful long term."
The news will mean the loss of 86 full-time jobs at the 22,000-square-foot Kingston facility, which employs 59 hourly and 27 salaried employees. The company has enlisted outplacement and governmental agencies to assist those employees as they seek new jobs.
Knorr Brake had announced plans in May for an 8,000-square-foot addition to its facility, a $2.2 million project that's now scrapped. The Kingston Whig-Standard reported that 18 jobs would be created by the end of 2013 from the project, designed to expand the plant's production capacity.
Along with manufacturing brake products, Knorr Brake sells after-market parts to Canadian railways.
Mr. Hawthorne did not return a call Tuesday seeking comment.

TAMPA, Florida (WTSP) - A Bradenton boy is recovering at Tampa General Hospital from a dog attack that left him without a finger.
Fernando Brignoni's pinky was bitten off by the family dog, Sassy, on Friday night.
"It hurts, but it can be better," said Brignoni's from his hospital bed.
It happened when the 11-year-old stuck the finger in the cage of the Malamute-wolf. The dog bit down on the finger and would not let go.
"I just grabbed anything I could find on the floor, and I grabbed the stick and I hit the dog in the head, and it ran off ... finally let go of my brother's hand," said Luis Brignoni's, Fernando's older brother.
But when the dog let go, the Malamute-wolf had already swallowed the finger. Fernando's father, Luis Brignoni Sr., jumped into action by first shooting the dog.
"So I start cutting her open and they're helping me look for the finger inside the stomach," said the 41 year-old hunter and outdoors man.
Rescue crews airlifted the boy to the hospital, but doctors could not re-attach the finger.
Instead, they grafted the skin from his forearm to the wound of the missing pinky.
"He might be missing a finger, but his other four are good. 'Cause God is good, you know, he still has four fingers to do everything that he can do with five. He can do with four," said Luis Brignoni Sr.
The Manatee County Sheriff's looked into the matter and determined it to be an accident.

Volleyball Sweeps Bowling Green To Win Hampton Inn Invitational
BOWLING GREEN, Ohio -- The No. 25 Creighton Volleyball program won the Hampton Inn Invitational title with a 3-0 sweep of host Bowling Green on Saturday morning. Creighton won by scores of 25-23, 26-24, 27-25 to improve to 2-0, while Bowling Green dropped to 0-2.
All three sets were tied late before the Bluejays clawed out a two-point victory. The first set was deadlocked at 23-all, the second frame at 24-all, and the third set at 25-all before CU come up clutch. The third set saw CU survive three set points before closing out its first sweep of 2013.
"Bowling Green is a great team and it was a really tough, hard-fought battle," said Creighton coach Kirsten Bernthal Booth . "That's a team that is going to win a lot of games this season. We didn't play perfect but I credit Bowling Green. They put pressure on you at all times, hit hard out-of-system and are great blocking team."
Creighton won a tightly-contested opening set that featured 14 ties and had five lead changes. The Bluejays fell behind 18-16, only to have Kate Elman serve up a 6-0 run to put the visitors in good shape. Bowling Green rallied to knot the score at 23-all before CU closed things out with kills by Leah McNary and Jess Bird. McNary led CU with seven kills in the first frame, while Bird added seven digs. Michelle Sicner had 16 assists for the Jays.
Creighton used an enormous second set comeback to take a 2-0 lead into the intermission. The Bluejays started slow and found themselves trailing 14-6 before a Lizzy Stivers serving run trimmed the deficit in half. CU would tie the score at 17-all and retake a lead at 22-21. The Falcons survived CU set point chances at 24-22 and 24-23, before Creighton eventually battled to earn the 26-24 set win. Bird topped the Jays with six kills in the second set, while Browning added four kills and four blocks.
Following the break, Creighton surged to a 7-1 lead and appeared well on its way to victory, but the hosts had other ideas. Bowling Green used a 5-0 spurt to draw within 11-10, and would tie the score at 20-all. The Falcons would later get three kills from Paige Penrod during a 4-0 burst to put BG to the edge of a set victory, but CU answered with two kills from McNary and a double-block by freshmen Lauren Smith and Bird. McNary would then have a kill to make it 26-25 before Bird's kill closed out the contest.
McNary topped Creighton with 11 kills, one more than Bird's 10. Middle blockers Browning and Smith both finished with nine kills, with Browning adding a match-best 10 blocks. Sicner led CU with 38 assists and added eight digs on .364 hitting. As a team, Creighton had 49 kills, four aces, 48 digs and 11 blocks on .273 hitting.
Bowling Green was paced by Penrod's 21 kills on .459 hitting. She also tied Alyssa Maloney for team-best honors with five blocks. BGSU had 44 kills, six aces, 49 digs and nine blocks on .207 hitting overall.
Creighton returns home next weekend to host the Bluejay Invitational. South Florida meets Cal on Friday at 3:30 pm, followed by Creighton's match vs. Northern Colorado at 6 pm.
"It is always so fun to play in our facility, which is one of the best in the country," said Booth. "I hope the fans will come out and continue to add to our home court advantage."
NOTES: No. 25 Creighton is the first ranked foe to meet Bowling Green at the three-year old Stroh Center. Bowling Green will meet No. 13 BYU later tonight ...Bowling Green was picked to win the Mid-American Conference and returned five starters from last year's team that went 22-11 and fell at Penn State in the second round of the NCAA Tournament ...Jess Bird is Creighton's first player with double-digit kills in each of her first two matches since JoDe Cieloha in 1994 ...Creighton had three players named to the All-Tournament Team; Kelli Browning, Lauren Smith and MVP Michelle Sicner.

Read: How Are The League and Union Going to Co-Exist and How This Is A Trip Back To The 90's
In the Toronto Star, Damien Cox writes that the NHL and NHLPA have traveled back to the early 90's with how their relationship has deteriorated.
The partnership that should exist between the two to make the game better and grow revenue appears to be dead in it's tracks
He writes, "At this point, growing the pie, which would benefits owners and players, appears to be the last objective on the minds of either side. It's scorched earth for both. This isn't about moving forward; we're back to the early 1990s in terms of the relationship between owners and players."
Brian Lawton sent out some tweets saying, "Having worked on both sides of the equation I can 100% say players are great guys and the majority of the Owners really care about players! None of that last tweet has come out in these negotiations and that is why you have to remember people it is not personal. Hopefully this meeting is the beginning to the end of the lock-out! A snowball can easily turn into an avalanche of momentum.

As the city waits to hear by the end of the day today whether the woman who successfully bid on the former Fort Drum Vehicle Storage warehouse will be able to close on the purchase, Ruby C. Charlene Williams is contending with legal problems of her own.
Ms. Williams, who submitted the winning bid for the building on West Main Street at a public auction in October with a $12,500 deposit but has since failed to communicate with the city, is wanted in the state of Florida.
According to the St. Johns County Sheriffs Department in Florida, there is a warrant for her arrest for violating probation. In 2005, she pleaded no contest to felony counts of third-degree grand theft and distributing a forged instrument. According to court documents, the sheriffs department has been seeking her whereabouts since 2006. No details about the crimes or the probation violation were provided in the court documents.
She has had several aliases, including Ruby Charlene Harris, Ruby Brown and Ruby Jackson, according to the documents.
Mayor Jeffrey E. Graham and Councilman Jeffrey M. Smith learned of her legal troubles after council members agreed last week to give her an extension for the closing.
After hearing that Ms. Williams was also evicted from her rental home several days ago, they said Monday night that they do not expect that she will end up purchasing the warehouse at 753 Rear W. Main St. The LeRay Town Court confirmed that she was evicted, but did not provide any details of the civil action.
Last week, the Watertown City Council agreed to grant her a one-week extension to close on the property after she missed a Nov. 16 deadline to do so. She told the Times that she missed it because she was suffering from walking pneumonia.
I dont know about walking pneumonia but she apparently walked out of the county, Mr. Smith said. Shes nowhere to be found.
On Monday, Ms. Williams, the chief financial officer for the vehicle storage company, did not return a reporters phone calls to get a comment about the closing. City Comptroller James E. Mills has not heard a word from her in weeks about the situation.
City officials are perplexed that she put down the $12,500 deposit for the warehouse, which she will lose if she does not finalize the deal by 5 p.m. today. If she fails to meet the deadline, the city will look for other offers through a second public auction, the mayor said.
At an Oct. 10 public auction, Ms. Williams submitted a high bid of $125,000 for the warehouse, which previously housed about 90 vehicles for the company until it was lost to back taxes.
The company was formed in 2005 to serve deploying soldiers in need of a place to store their vehicles. The owners, JoAnn Sanchez-Norquist and John S. Norquist, lost the building after failing to pay $17,776.37 in back taxes.
Recently, the Watertown Local Development Corp. decided to start collection procedures against the Fort Drum Vehicle Storage company for being delinquent on a $40,000 loan taken out to help form the company. The owners still owe $28,456 and have not made a payment since July.
County Attorney David J. Paulsen said the Norquists also continue to owe $92,443 in back taxes on five properties they own in the county.

MASSENA - Massena Central School students had an unanticipated day off Wednesday after a ruptured water line at the high school forced school officials to close their buildings for the day.
But, Superintendent Roger B. Clough said late Wednesday afternoon, all of the schools will reopen for business today.
Mr. Clough said they had to close all of the districts schools because the high schools main kitchen, which prepares the meals served in the districts five buildings, was affected by the ruptured water line. And preparing an alternate cold meal wasnt feasible on Wednesday, he said.
The district serves thousands of breakfasts and lunches weekly. We need bread, which we dont have, to even do bologna or peanut butter sandwiches, Mr. Clough said Wednesday prior to meeting with contractors to discuss repairing the line.
We are considering serving sandwiches, but just finding the 500 loaves of bread we need is turning out to be a challengeand then we have to find the sandwich fillings, he said, pointing out that a heightened awareness about food allergies, especially peanut butter, limited what they could serve.
In addition, Mr. Clough said, We also would need the other fruit and vegetable components to make a lunch that meets the federal nutrition requirements.
He said they had planned to keep the high school closed until water for sanitation and food preparation was fully restored. There was, however, a chance for the elementary and middle school to open on Thursday - even if the high school was closed - if they could make other arrangements for food service.
Those plans werent necessary though after repairs were made to the ruptured line Wednesday afternoon, meaning schools could open and regular meals could resume today.
Because the break occurred in the crawl space beneath the school floor, contractors could easily access the coupling. The contractors have made necessary repairs, and we have completed final tests. We have followed the directives of the Department of Health to ensure the health and safety of all concerned, he said.
Mr. Clough said maintenance personnel discovered the that the 6-inch water line serving the high school had ruptured at about 10:45 p.m. Tuesday. The line was located near the former Central Administration Building wing of the high school.
Our night cleaners do routine checks. There was water coming up about 10:45 last night, he said.
The rupture flooded portions of the basement and forced staff to shut off all water to the building.
He said the line had been replaced last summer as part of the districts capital project. It was still under warranty and was replaced by the contractor at no charge to the district.

No, I simply point out, that you can't base an Azeroth map on Earth facts.
If you cannot handle constructive feedback, don't ask for it..
who said "earth" facts? those are properties that planets have, they have orbits around stars, they have a rotation axis, and that axis has a certain angle with the plane in which they orbit the star. i said i made a globe map, you don't seem to understand what a globe, or planet is... that's not constructive feedback, that's just wierd
they said in blizzcon that when they made those maps, they knew they'd regret it because they wanted to complete the map latter
- - - Updated - - -
still, you are missing the point, there is not a lot of information about the geography of the planet, and i made the map with what was reasonable to speculate, constructive criticism would be to point out what could be different and why
- - - Updated - - -
Anyway, did anyone notice the terrain has a lot more complexity than in the google map version? and the lighting effect? and the effect on the maelstrom?
Also, anyone knows a good way top put some clouds? The ones from the filter in GIMP aren't very nice
Psst... someone add street view and make sure to get funny/embarrassing shots of characters outside their future homes.
hehe that would require lots of fly overs, but would be funny to see, maybe blizzard and google make an algorithm to make that automatically if we ask nicely?
Well, it looks like no one is interested in constructive anything, only being ignorant pseudo geeks that don't understand geometry and just like to say no for no particular reason... What a disapointent, i actually thought that people would like this, but i guess i misjudged this comunity.
Perhaps a higher resolution map would be on your next to-do-list?
what exactly did you say that was constructive in any way?
the map resolution is 2850x1800, it's a pretty high resolution, for more, you can use the website
It's pretty useless to try and apply Earth physics to Azeroth. The passive magic of things like leylines, the nether/planes connections, the well, etc completely alter basic climate structures. Outland shouldn't even be able to retain air at it's current size.
Looks like there are still 3-4 places in Kalimdor and Eastern Kingdoms where they can put zones like in Cataclysm...
I've always felt there was more to Azeroth. I never saw Pandaria as the south pole either, more like it was just one section of the whole of Azeroth. I don't count that stupid map in Ulduar anymore. They devs seem to ignore it completely anyway. We should too.
First there is no such thing as earth physics, just physics in general.
If you agree that azeroth is a planet with day night cycles and orbits a star, the rest is just optics and thermodynamics. it is obviously fictional, and in fiction sometimes you have things that wouldn't be possible.
Still the game is clearly based on a planet with day and night cycles, thus a rotational axis, a tendency to be colder on norther spots, therefore an equator line, and some differences can be explained by ley lines and things like that. Still it is not a complete map.
With this information, if you want to make a globe, you have to fill the gaps, and constructive critics would be saying things that could be there to fill those gaps that aren't mentioned in the game.
Oh, and don't try to talk about physics if you don't know what it is.

'Unique gameplay experience' is your opinion. For me, it doesn't fit WoW.And nothing prevents Blizzard from taking that concept and making it fit into a MMORPG game since the hammer tank concept provides a potentially unique gameplay experience, and allows Tinkers to stand out from existing classes. Two things Blizzard considers very important in class design.
And he may never, ever have it, so saying 'not yet' is irrelevant.Not yet.
It's not 'bad comparison'. If you're using HotS as canon sources, so all of it is canon. You don't get to cherry-pick what is or what isn't.Those are alternate skins, not the base skins. Also Gazlowe is a Tinker throughout HotS. Bad comparison is bad.

- How to Read a Study Record
There are no data on efficacy, safety and pharmacokinetics of ATV/r-based HAART in HIV-infected Asian children. Therefore, the investigators aim to evaluate the pharmacokinetics, efficacy and safety of ATV/r-based HAART in Thai HIV-infected children.
Drug: boosted atazanavir (ATV/r)
Phase 2
|Study Type:
|Study Design:
|Allocation: Randomized
Endpoint Classification: Safety/Efficacy Study
Intervention Model: Parallel Assignment
Masking: Open Label
Primary Purpose: Treatment
|Official Title:
|The Study of Atazavanir/Ritonavir-based HAART in Thai HIV-infected Children
- pharmacokinetics of atazanavir/ritonavir (ATV/r) [ Time Frame: 48 weeks ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]Ctrough and Area under the curve (AUC) of atazanavir (ATV) and ritonavir (RTV) will be assessed
- CD4 [ Time Frame: 48 weeks ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]Assess CD percent and count at week 48
- plasma viral load (HIV RNA) [ Time Frame: 48 weeks ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]assess HIV RNA at week 24 and 48
- hyperbilirubin [ Time Frame: 48 weeks ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]evaluate total and direct bilirubin at weeks 24 and 48
|Study Start Date:
|July 2011
|Study Completion Date:
|February 2013
|Primary Completion Date:
|February 2013 (Final data collection date for primary outcome measure)
|Assigned Interventions
Experimental: PI-experience group
Using PI-based HAART for ≥6 months at the screening visit HIV-RNA viral load < 50 copies/ml at the screening visit No history of HIV-RNA ≥ 1,000 copies/ml while using PI-based HAART
Drug: boosted atazanavir (ATV/r)
ATV/r will be taken orally once daily with food plus standard dose of 2 NRTIs according to Thai National HIV treatment guideline
Experimental: PI-naïve group
Never been exposed to any PI-containing regimen HIV-RNA viral load ≥ 1,000 copies/ml at the screening visit
Drug: boosted atazanavir (ATV/r)
ATV/r will be taken orally once daily with food plus standard dose of 2 NRTIs according to Thai National HIV treatment guideline
Detailed Description:
Non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NNRTI)-based HAART have been commonly prescribed as the first-line HAART for HIV-infected children in resource-limited settings. Protease inhibitor (PI)-based HAART are the recommended second-line regimen after failing NNRTI-based HAART. The most commonly used PI in Thailand is lopinavir/ritonavir (LPV/r). However, the metabolic complications of lopinavir/ritonaive (LPV/r) such as hyperlipidemia and lipodyrtrophy are common and a concern for HIV-infected children as it may contribute to the development of cardiovascular disease in the longer term. There are data on efficacy, safety and pharmacokinetics of ATV/r-based HAART in HIV-infected adults but none in children. Furthermore, many studies in both adults and children have shown that different ethnicities can result in different pharmacokinetic response to antiretroviral drugs. As a result of this, this study investigated the efficacy, safety and pharmacokinetics of ATV/r-based HAART in HIV-infected Asian children.

Golf is a game of subtleties. A slight rotation during a swing of a degree or two can mean the difference between hitting the green and landing in the bunker. Those same subtleties are no more apparent than in a set of golf clubs.
With continued advancements in club technology, it is possible to see a difference in your game as a result of new clubs, whether you desire increased power, accuracy or forgiveness. But if there are flaws in your swing, new clubs will not make them disappear. Clubs can only improve on what's already there.
You don't have to go out and purchase the most expensive set of clubs -- concentrate on getting the right set. Selecting golf clubs that are the correct size is the first step. Unless you stand over 6 feet or under 5 feet, standard-size clubs should be correct for most men and women. Men's clubs are generally 1 inch taller per club.
The shaft is the next essential consideration. Today's shafts are usually composed of steel or graphite. Steel shafts are more durable and generally less expensive than graphite. They offer more control but require a faster swing to generate distance. Graphite is popular because of its light feel. However, ball control is sacrificed by the increased power generated from the swing. Shaft stiffness is also a factor. You will find a range of flexibility, from extra-stiff to shafts for seniors with more "bend" to them. Beginners and players with less powerful swings will find a flexible shaft more effective, while players with powerful swings will gain more control with a stiffer club shaft.
Loft is another term you will come across in your search. It refers to the height the ball will achieve in flight. Inexperienced players are generally encouraged to choose clubs with more loft as they are more forgiving on less accurate swings.
Driver designs have recently reached the United States Golf Association's (USGA) limits for size and length. In the case of such drivers, bigger seems to be better. A bigger club head generates more speed through the swing and can offer a larger sweet spot.
Irons also offer a variety of styles and options, broken down first into two categories: cast irons or forged irons. Cast iron heads are recommended for beginners. They provide a larger sweet spot and are more forgiving on accuracy. Forged irons feature a head with a flat, weighted back. This higher center of gravity (CG) means a more concentrated sweet spot and more control for experienced players.
