Welcome Message from the CEO
The 5th Patient Safety Forum – 2015 is another milestone for Ministry of National Guard-Health Affairs (MNGHA) and King Saud bin Abdulaziz University for Health Science (KSAU-HS) in our continued journey towards maintaining and delivering optimum safety in patient care. The 4th Patient Safety Forum in 2014 brought both exceptional attendance and positive response. Given past success we are delighted to host the Patient Safety Forum as an annual event to be used as a platform to address both our organizational needs and the national need for the delivery of safe patient care.
Over the years MNGHA has demonstrated a strong obligation to improve the systematic delivery of premium healthcare by early recognition of the importance of researching and adapting international standards while working tirelessly towards building our capacity for quality improvement of safe patient care. MNGHA has maintained international accreditation as a result of our vision, mission and our organization's strategic objectives and goals in the deliverance of safe patient care.
As in previous years The Patient Safety Forum illustrates what can be achieved when perseverance, academic and scientific knowledge are joined in union collectively in the unified pursuit of excellence in achieving the highest standard of patient safety and care.
The forum is an opportune time for healthcare leaders, healthcare organizations, management and all health care professionals from all disciplines and backgrounds to inspire, learn and go forth on the continued journey of safe patient care.

Welcome Message from Scientific Chairman
We would like to welcome you to the 5th International Patient Safety Forum. Together, we continue our fight against the epidemic of medical harm. It is sad to say that preventable harm is still rampant. It is a global problem. It is tragic that human beings, our patients, our families and friends are subjected to avoidable errors and undesirable outcomes during the medical care that is supposed to help them.
This epidemic goes on in spite of our massive effort to stop the carnage. Our will to fight is undiminished and the science of patient safety is getting better although still at embryonic early phases. Applying what we already know is further hampered by the complexity of our professional culture, our habits, behaviors, how we communicate, and our adherence to some outdated values like promoting the individual hero. Heroism will not work, trying harder will not work. What we believe will work is the collaborative, relentless, unceasing effort to focus on system approach, system measurements, and system redesign to make right the easy thing to do. Further, learning from other high risk industries as they achieve status of high reliability organizations, building collaborative multidisciplinary team and using trans-disciplinary science are clearly needed for the way forward. These themes and others will be addressed and discussed by different speakers and during workshops. We hope that you both enjoy and benefit from this 5th International Patient Safety Forum.
Dr. Saadi Taher
Welcome Message from Organizing Chairman
On behalf of the Deanship of Postgraduate Education and the Organizing Committee, I am greatly honored and pleased to welcome you all to the 5th Patient Safety Forum.
The success of Patient Safety Forum last year is a groundbreaking experience for the Ministry of National Guard Health Affairs. As we foster on more and continuous patient safety system and education, we are pleased to offer you this conference with the objective to empower healthcare professionals to create a safer environment and to sustain as much as possible a culture of Patient Safety.
We are extremely pleased that His Royal Highness, Prince Muteb bin Abdullah bin Abdulaziz Al Saud, Minister of National Guard Health Affairs has honored us with his presence at this meeting. Likewise, we are privileged to have with us a number of distinguished international and local guest faculty from different countries, who are prominent and world leaders in this field. They have traveled a long way to share and discuss with us the advances and challenges in the current Patient Safety practices.
Further, the Deanship of Postgraduate Education is grateful to His Excellency Dr. Bandar Al Knawy, Chief Executive Officer of National Guard Health Affairs and President of King Saud bin Abdulaziz University for Health Sciences who continuously supports our Postgraduate Education programs and training. His effort and vision has made tremendous strides in health care practices in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and beyond.
It is not an easy job to put together this educational event of such magnitude, and we would like to applaud the members of our Organizing Committee for their hard work and ensuring a top-quality conference.
We assure you that the faculties are all subject leaders from different parts of the world and the scientific program has been elaborated to benefit all participants the most. We look forward to your active participation in making this conference a success. Please join us again for another educational activities offered by Postgraduate Education

I moved to Tallahassee from Knoxville TN after getting my Ph.D. In physics. I work a lot but it is rewarding and flexible. I love music and literature and love talking about those kind of things. I enjoy subjective discussions and if you hate "arguing" you probably won't like me. I'm very close to family and my childhood friends. Education is very important to me and I want at least part of my life to be spent making education in this country better.

Thanks George
The external fan was a thought but since I don't expose for very long and a good time between exposures, I think I might try the switch idea. Just one more thing to remember but habits of turning on and off are do-able. I could make a time delay circuit to turn off , say for a few seconds before exposure, and then trip the lamp to turn on. Then it would reset and turn the fan back on.
Just thinking here.

Bush Meets Jolie, Coldplay Rocks, Rioters Rant: London Weekend
The hyperactive Chris Martin and his friends in Coldplay bring their world tour to London tomorrow.
The British quartet is pushing its latest CD "Mylo Xyloto," which is full of the gently uplifting rock songs that have helped notch up more than 50 million in record sales.
The band is also reprising its greatest hits from "Viva La Vida" to "Clocks" and "Yellow" -- tunes which have overcome some critical attacks to become stadium favorites with their singalong melodies.
O2, Peninsula Sq., SE10 0DX, Dec. 9 and 10, with supports including Emeli Sande. Information: +44-20-8463-2000, http://www.coldplay.com/live.php or http://www.theo2.co.uk.
George W. Bush has been sighted on Savile Row -- and he wasn't getting measured for a suit.
The ex-president stars in artist Paul McCarthy's messy "Pig Island" installation at the Hauser & Wirth Gallery. Bush's pink effigy repeatedly pops up among shattered easels, mutilated swine, empty fast-food buckets, and a photo of Angelina Jolie.
McCarthy's orgiastic environments remind you of Hieronymus Bosch. If you can stomach it, walk to the gallery's adjacent wing to see two more Bush figures in a mechanized installation with pigs.
"The King, The Island, The Train, The House, The Ship" by Paul McCarthy is at Hauser & Wirth's Piccadilly-area galleries through Jan. 14, 2012. Information: http://www.hauserwirth.com or +44-20-7287-2300.
Franco's, on nearby Jermyn Street, is an Italian restaurant with so many regulars, it's like a private club. It's been in business for more than 60 years and is open for breakfast, lunch and dinner, plus cocktails. Information: +44-20-7499-2211 or http://www.francoslondon.com/.
Saturday Night
Four months after rioters kicked, smashed, and looted their way around some British cities, the London stage offers its take on events.
Writer Gillian Slovo has interviewed protesters, police officers, residents, activists and politicians to come up with "The Riots" at the Tricycle Theatre. Their responses are delivered word for word by a cast of 14 actors; chairs and a table are the only decor. Everyone is named except the rioter-looters, who are dubbed Man 1, Man 2, and Man 3.
Timely, if not a perfectly balanced piece of journalism. "The Riots" ends Saturday at the Tricycle Theatre, 269 Kilburn High Road, NW6 7JR. Information: http://www.tricycle.co.uk or +44-20-7328-1000.
Chocolate dim sum, anyone?
It's one of the delights at the Chocolate Festival this weekend. Guest chefs teach you how to throw together chocolate-based recipes, pick the right winter drink to go with them, and savor chocolate the way you would a fine bottle of wine.
At Southbank Centre Square, behind Royal Festival Hall. Information: http://www.festivalchocolate.co.uk.
While there, you can hear Russian-born Vladimir Ashkenazy conduct the Philharmonia Orchestra and French pianist Jean-Efflam Bavouzet in a matinee performance of Debussy ("La Mer"), Ravel, and Manuel De Falla.
Ashkenazy will sign CDs afterwards. The 3 p.m. concert at Royal Festival Hall is part of the orchestra's Sunday matinee series: http://www.southbankcentre.co.uk or +44-844-847-9910.
When visiting the Southbank, it's worth considering a walk across Waterloo Bridge to eat at Mishkin's, the latest venue of restaurateur Russell Norman, the owner of Polpo and Polpetto. Mishkin's is crowded and inexpensive and it's in the style of a New York deli, with salt-beef sandwiches and hot dogs. Information: +44-20-7240-2078 or http://www.mishkins.co.uk/

The team will no longer be updating or adding any more movie reviews to this site. Sorry for the inconvenience.
Run All Night is the latest film to star Oscar nominated actor Liam Neeson (Schindler's List, Taken, and A Walk Among the Tombstones) and Oscar nominated actor Ed Harris (The Hours, The Truman Show, and Apollo 13) as childhood friends caught on opposite sides of tragedy. Liam plays an ex-solider clean-up man for his New York mob boss Harris. Liam also hasn't seen his son, cast to Joel Kinnaman (the TV series The Killing, RoboCop (2014), and Safe House), in over 5 years since his wife passed away. We are introduced to Liam as he wakes up drunk in the corner booth of a pub owned by Harris. All of Harris' goons continually jeer and make fun of him until Liam can disappear around the corner. He enters Harris' office to find Harris' son Danny snorting coke off of the desk and then proceeds to ask him for a loan already approved by Harris over the phone. Danny seizing the opportunity to take advantage of his father's last and oldest friend refuses to give Liam the loan unless he plays Santa at the afternoon Christmas party at Harris'. Begrudgingly Liam accepts. Before the Christmas party can begin, Danny sets up a meeting with Harris and a group of Albanian mobsters in order for Harris to get $2,000,000 and 20% of all of the Albanians' heroine that he can get through customs at the port. Harris refuses the offer having already lost all of his old friends to addition, incarceration, and death, except Liam. This puts Danny on the wrong side of the Albanians who have already paid him a fee for a guaranteed deal being completed.
The D.U.F.F. is Hollywood's latest film adaptation from a novel of the same name that also seems to follow along the lines of a typical teen comedy. The D.U.F.F. was written by Kody Keplinger and was released in hardback in September of 2010, and has since made its way to paperback and eBook status. The D.U.F.F. is actually an acronym that stands for a teenage social group's "designated ugly fat friend". According to the film version of the novel, the friend does not need to be ugly or fat, but he or she does need to be the least attractive member of a group of friends. This person in the group then has the job of "gatekeeper". Since they are the least attractive, and therefore on a superficial level, are the least desirable to the opposite sex; they become the most approachable person in the group. The D.U.F.F. can answer questions for newly single or inquiring minds of the opposite sex without having an awkward conversation with a hotter member of the group in the hallway, in class, or at a party. Interested people can find out about love interests, relationship statuses, or upcoming plans so as not to conflict or seem desperate to an uninterested hottie. This all seems well and good if you are friending up the social high school ladder and take on your role as the D.U.F.F. with enthusiasm and gusto, but what would you do if you found out that you were the D.U.F.F. and never knew it?

The Good
Most reviews, of those used in this analysis, seemed to describe a positive experience at this hotel.
Many guests described their rooms as clean and spacious. A few other reviewers found their rooms to be quiet and the beds and sheets to be comfortable. Several guests also indicated that the property in general was well maintained and described new carpeting, modern furniture, flat screen televisions and updated bathrooms.
The location of this hotel also received some compliments for being close to the major 417 highway and the St. Laurent Shopping Centre. A couple of guests noted the bus terminal at the shopping centre was convenient for accessing downtown.
The customer service at this hotel was praised for being friendly and efficient, with one guest saying, "the staff seem genuinely interested in making your stay pleasant".
Many guests seemed to agree that this hotel offered good value for the money they spent. The in-room blackout curtains, free parking, free wireless Internet, and in-room mini-fridges were all mentioned as value added features.
The Bad
While several guests seemed generally unimpressed with the property and described the hotel as average or basic, there were few common complaints.
The continental breakfast was frequently described as lacking variety and quality. Several guests also mentioned that the breakfast area, which was a cordoned-off area of the lobby, was too small. One guest said the breakfast was "worth skipping", while another reviewer specifically mentioned that the coffee was weak.
A couple of reviewers were unhappy with the extra $20 charge for their pets, while a couple of other guests said that they were disturbed early in the morning by housekeeping.

Re: Hernan Marquez-Brian Viloria, who you got?
It's exactly the same level of uncertainty I had with Mares/Moreno last week and it's the kind of match you want to be spoiled on, getting it every week, like this. I slightly favoured Mares last week but wouldn't pick. I could picture it every which way. This is the same and I do very slightly favour Viloria but I can see anything happening here. I couldn't pick an outcome. I can see them all happening. I wish we could get Roman Gonzalez in some fights like this too. That kid needs a match with some intrigue. He could be in the ring with either of these guys.

Radar Test & Electronic Warfare (EW) Test
As technology evolves so do the challenges in detection, avoidance, electronic warfare and countermeasures. In all cases, the testing of today's systems will benefit from high-performance test equipment — analog and vector signal generators, spectrum analyzers, vector signal analyzers, vector network analyzers and more. From simulations of an arriving wavefront with multiple emitters to testing of precision components in a receiver, our solutions are ready for the complexity of radar test and EW test applications.

Tourism in Osaka – Doutonbori River Cruise
Posted on 12. Aug, 2012 @ 2:25 pm by harvey in Osaka, Travel Views: 5,389
Ever wanted to take a 20-minute cruise down Doutonbori river in Osaka? I lived in Osaka for about 4 years and didn't… but I tried it yesterday!
My parents are in town visiting so I was desperate to find easy touristy things for them to do. My mom would be happy just walking around a "mall" all day long, but that's not for me. Don't get me wrong, I know there are PLENTY of culturally interesting and much more exciting things to do in the Kansai area, but, I was with my folks, and they're not into all of those things.
Anyway. You can catch the water cruise in a few different places in Osaka. We caught the boat at the stop right in front of Donkihoutei in Namba. The location is perfect. You can check out Kanidouraku, see Kuidaore, check out the Glico sign, eat some takoyaki, and then walk over Ebisubashi and walk down to the ferry.
The ferry has a few regular holidays, but it runs quite frequently so you don't have to plan too far ahead. The price was very reasonable. The ride was about 20 minutes long.
You can get all the details on their official website, which is multi-lingual. Here is the English website for the Osaka sightseeing river cruise.
Our cruise had a mix of Japanese, Koreans, Chinese, and us, the Americans. The tour guide was an Osaka native, of course, and the tour was done entirely in Japanese. You can pick up pamphlets that are in English at the place where you buy tickets, but the explanations in the pamphlets do not come anywhere close to the detail that the guide provides. Having said that, the detail isn't that amazing. They basically tell you about each bridge that you pass under, pointing out facts like more than 200,000 people cross over Ebisubashi in Namba every day, and that more than 4,000 Hanshin Tigers fans jumped off that bridge into the murky river after the team won the season. They also point out that the ferris wheel on donki houte is the first (and only?) oblong ferris wheel in the world! But, if you're a long time reader you already know that I ALREADY KNEW THAT.
If you can, sit in the front of the boat. The back is covered so you can stay in the shade or out of the rain, but it severely limits your view, as you can see from my photographs!

Triangular Toeplitz contractions and Cowen sets for analytic polynomials
Abstract | References | Similar Articles | Additional Information
Abstract: Let be the collection of lower triangular Toeplitz matrices and let be the collection of lower triangular Toeplitz contractions. We show that is compact and strictly convex, in the spectral norm, with respect to ; that is, is compact, convex and , where and denote the topological boundary with respect to and the set of extreme points, respectively. As an application, we show that the reduced Cowen set for an analytic polynomial is strictly convex; more precisely, if is an analytic polynomial and if , then is strictly convex. This answers a question of C. Cowen for the case of analytic polynomials.

By Stephanie Pappas, LiveScience Senior Writer:
Multi-person elephant rides, orangutans eating from fine china, and carnivores on display before becoming extinct are just some of the scenes from an online exhibit of vintage zoo pamphlets being featured by the Smithsonian Institution.
The pamphlets, photos and zoo maps, available from the Smithsonian Institution Libraries, come from zoos in more than 30 U.S. states and 40 countries. They show elephants in Australia ferrying schoolchildren on their backs, close-up looks at tigers in Prague, and illustrations from 1891 of a thylacine, or Tasmanian tiger, a carnivorous marsupial on display at the Gardens of the Zoological Society of London. The last known thylacine died in captivity in 1936.
The vintage materials reveal how much zoos have changed from amusement-park-like attractions to more educational, conservation-minded institutions. A guide to Great Britain's Clifton Zoological Gardens from 1912, for example, shows prison-like animal enclosures encased in heavy bars. Primates were often posed doing human-like activities. One Minnesota zoo guide from 1928 shows a chimpanzee in a stroller. The New York Zoological Park guide, published in 1905, has photographs of orangutans sitting around a table draped with a white tablecloth, mimicking a family dinner.
"Some of the photographs of animal enclosures, restraint devices and mock theatrics, while unsettling to some, are an important part of the history of human-animal relations," wrote Alvin Hutchinson, the head of information services at Smithsonian Libraries, in an introduction to the collection.
These days zoos are focused increasingly on conservation and research rather than on anthropomorphized chimps. Smithsonian's National Zoo, for example, recently live-tweeted an attempt to artificially inseminate its giant panda Mei Xiang. There are only about 1,600 pandas left in the wild, and captive-breeding programs are part of an effort to save the species.
In turn, zoo residents give researchers a glimpse at the cognitive capabilities of wild animals. Recently, for example, Santino, a chimpanzee at Furuvik Zoo in Sweden, showed evidence of a sneaky streak. The territorial chimp was already known to throw rocks at zoo visitors as part of his dominance displays. (He always missed.) Now scientists have observed Santino hiding his weapons behind logs and boulders in his enclosure, even maintaining an innocent, nonchalant air in order to get closer to visitors before launching his attack. The chimp's behavior shows a capacity to make complex plans, researchers told LiveScience.

Wushu Champion Xu Xiang Dong performing one of the best Eagle claw sets I've ever seen!
Eagle Claw(Ying Zaho Quan) is a Northern Shaolin style that emphasizes the use of Chin-na (locking) techniques. The hand in the shape of the claw is used to apply pressure to an opponent's joints, veins, and pressure points, thus controlling and immobilizing him. Eagle Claw is ideal for both men and women of any size because great body strength is not required to be effective in a defensive situation. Using various hand strengthening exercises the claw is developed to have a vice-like grip and a burning sensation as if hot coals were being pressed into the opponent. Eagle Claw strength is based on finger power, finger joint power, and wrist power. Without all three the claw is ineffective. A well developed claw can control an opponent without injury, causing damage only when unavoidable. In this way Eagle Claw is a highly moral system that provides very effective self-defense without unnecessary injury to an opponent.
At the core of all Eagle Claw techniques are the principles of yin and yang. Punches and palm strikes are executed relaxed, but firm, until the end when the hand and the arm are hardened. This gives the technique a snapping action that adds power without a great need for strength. Movements are fast then slow, yielding then advancing, depending on the need of the situation and the technique to be employed. The student learns to at once be strong as a mountain, and then as yielding as a blade of grass in the wind.
The Eagle Claw system includes:
25 fist forms
over 25 weapon forms
over 25 partner forms
and the 108 locking techniques.
Forms must be practiced diligently until the movements and techniques are perfected. It's in the forms that the student unlocks the secrets of Eagle Claw. Every step and hand technique in the forms have a self-defense application. Practicing the forms also develops discipline and focus in the student, advantages that become invaluable in everyday life.
Three of the forms are considered Master forms and contain the most intricate techniques of the Eagle Claw system. These forms are:
Lin Kuen (Connected Fist)
Jui Lao Tong (Eagle Claw Drunken Set)
Fuk Fu Kuen (Control the Tiger)
The Northern Eagle Claw system is ideal for both men and women of various age groups, body types, and athletic ability. Because the system relies upon subtle re-direction of an attacker's own aggressive energy, it can be used effectively regardless of the practitioner's size or strength.
The cornerstone of Northern Eagle Claw kung fu is the set of "108 fighting techniques" adapted by General Ngok Fei from a Shaolin monk named Jow Tong. These techniques make effective use of the hand fashioned as a grasping eagle's claw (Ying Jow) to deliver devastating locks and traps (often referred to broadly as "chin na" or grappling techniques).
During the time of the Ming Dynasty, a monk named Lai Chin incorporated General Ngok Fei's fighting techniques with elements of the Faan Tzi system. Faan Tzi techniques are based upon swift, open and often acrobatic movements designed to out-maneuver and dominate an opponent. The combination of Ying Jow (eagle claw) with Faan Tzi techniques yielded the system known today as Northern Eagle Claw kung fu (Ying Jow Faan Tzi Pai).

Not too many consumers took notice, however, so after taking stock of their prospects, Flores and Garcia retooled Evildead's lineup with new members Dan Flores (guitar), Karlos Medina (bass, and another Agent Steel alum), and drummer Doug Clawson prior to recording 1991's The Underworld. Unfortunately, it too failed to impress the marketplace -- despite flirting with the day's more current death metal style -- and, after delivering a final live album with the following year's From the Depths of the Underworld, Evildead quietly shut down shop. ~ Eduardo Rivadavia

SlideMeister.com The Chromatic Oasis - "We're all chromatic, all the time"
Many of you "guests" reading this notice that your application for membership was answered with "something" you didn't think was important enough to read, and a week or so later, you got a "rejection letter." The Approval I sent (immediately) in response to your application was labeled "ACTIVATE YOUR ACCOUNT" (or something like that) Then a week or so later you recall receiving a note from the system informing you that your account has been deleted, after which, some have written back immediately to cuss me out and demonstrate their ignorance. It's amazing how "Your account has been deleted" generates an immediate response, a week after "Activate Your Account" was ignored. FYI: Only 2.5% ever read the "agreement" / AKA rules and regs) those of you that have, know exactly what I'm talking about. To be fair, I'm sure some don't respond when they see that I actually expect them to say "Hello" or whatever, which us fine with me as well, cuz as the old guy who likes to protect the members, and sees anonymous, nameless, faceless "members" as security risks and therefore, not worth having around anyway.

November 28, 2015
LEXINGTON, Ky. (WKYT) - As police continue to look for the person who shot a student near the UK campus, new details are emerging about the investigation.
We've now learned from court documents that police found detailed information of a drug dealing operation being run out of the house on Elizabeth Street where the shots were fired. Now all three people who live in the home face drug charges including the shooting victim.
In the arrest citation, police say the vicitim, Ryan Jennings, a UK senior, asked one of his roommates to hide a Crown Royal bag filled with marijuana before police arrived to investigate. When investigators got to the house, they found much more. They say inside were labeled bags of marijuana, a digital scale, and a book with handwritten prices.
"The way that traffic came in and out of the house, the way that people came in and out of the house was very, sketchy, suspicious," explained neighbor Chris Allen, "for it to be across the street, you know that this kind of stuff happens. You don't ever want it to ever be near you."
Ainsley Murrell, Jenning's roommate, appeared in court Tuesday on drug charges. Jennings, once out of the hospital, will face similar charges. His arraignment is set for November.

2007 Mazda 6 Wagon s Grand Touring 4dr Wagon (3.0L 6cyl 6A)
Overall Impression
2004 Reasonable car for the money.
Put 50K miles on ours.
5spd manual stick. Full loaded.
Suspension feels good.
Sporty appearance. Roomy for five people.
Reliable. Fit.
Engine is a dog for its V6 size
- but of course it is made by ford.
MPG also a disappointment at 24 granny-style driving hwy
vs. sport driving in the city maybe 14.
ie. in this category the worst of both worlds.
Turning radius is pathetic.
Seating poor support in the lumbar (compared to any european car).
Poor tire clearance on body.
Manual trans I think was built for a different engine --ratios
terrible -- too tight for a 3litre engine.
Should have available 4cylinder eng.
Just bought a used S Grand touring Wagon and love it so far. Got almost 28 mpg on a short 400 mile road trip. Tons of cargo space and configurations. The cargo cover doubles as a doggie cage and can also be moved just behind the front seat when the rear seats are folded down. The bottom portion of the drivers seat seem a little short on leg support, could be longer, but otherwise it is a comfortable ride for a big guy.
MPG, Bose radio is great, looks fantastic. It takes regular gas unlike many of the other German wagons that are the same size and thousands more. Front windows down from the remote.
A key option, that key is too big. Turning radius is worst than some large SUVs. Bluetooth not even an option.

Stryker: The Siege of Sadr City
Item Description
In the spring of 2008, Coalition troops responded in-force to what quickly became one of the largest, bloodiest and most influential battles of the Iraq War. For nearly three months, American and Iraqi troops fought for control over the most dangerous urban district of Baghdad, against the ruthless insurgent militia of the Jaish al-Mahdi - a struggle that would change the face of the entire war.
Sgt Ludwig's gripping narrative offers and unfiltered view of the Final Battle of Sadr City, as seen through his eyes from behind the wrath of a machine gun. Still a young idealistic boy, he enlists with a high-impact urban assault Stryker unit known as "Bull Company" and comes face-to-face with his own oblivion. Up against the full might of the Jaish al-Mahdi, they embark on a one-way mission deep behind enemy lines, to capture a well-guarded militia stronghold and defend their ground "for as long as it takes."
This is the story of what really happened in the late years of Operation Iraqi Freedom.
The story our media neglected to tell.

Anthony Davis won the Oscar Robertson Trophy, given to the national player of the year by the U.S. Basketball Writers Association.
Davis, who averages 14.3 points, 10.1 rebounds and 4.6 blocks, is the first UK player to win and the second freshman (Kevin Durant) to win in the 53-year history of the award.
"Anthony Davis made an immediate and dramatic impact on college basketball," said USBWA President Lenox Rawlings of the Winston-Salem Journal in a press release. "He has many skills, most obvious among them his ability to block and alter shots. Davis' dominance inside solidified Kentucky as a national title contender and brought Bill Russell back into the dialogue, shining light on the vital half of the game that people often ignore."
Davis will receive the award on March 30, in conjunction with the Final Four, in New Orleans.
UPDATE: UK released quotes from Davis on winning the award:
"It means a lot to me to win this award," Davis said. "To win the award is very touching and a big accomplishment, but all the thanks goes to my team, because without them I wouldn't have received these awards.
"The recognition is nice, but I want to win the biggest award of them all and that's the national championship. I have to stay humble and keep working."

Tom Petters has been sentenced to 50years of imprisonmemt by US court for fraud.
Printable View
Tom Petters has been sentenced to 50years of imprisonmemt by US court for fraud.
Yes, but given allowance for time served and possible time off for good behavior, he may serve only 41 years.
Greed can creap on you for sure!
I am still puzzled by that verdict. Though I should not be surprised as the different national kinds of criminal justice are continuously a topic of the media over here.
What puzzles you? Too short? Too long? Sentence vs. that for a violent crime?
I am puzzled by the long duration. Over here fraud is a relatively mildly sentenced crime as the opponent in the transaction is participating (by letting himself being betrayed).
You refer to violent crime: As the sentence in this case is practically already a life-long sentence, how would someone be sentenced who commited a violent crime?
Violent crimes in the US usually get long sentences and then early parole it seems...
I'm no expert, but from what I read in the local papers the Petters sentence is a function of a few things:
it was a long running fraud, and multiple frauds, not an isolated incident
he did not plead guilty (kind of a catch-22)
many people were hurt
it's intended as a warning to others.
Perhaps if he had been sentenced before some of the larger scandals came to light (such as Madoff) he would have gotten off a bit easier. But the public is angry.
