Liuchan finally visits Corvallis
Ricky Liuchan committed to Oregon State last summer. He signed in February. And he hadn't even visited campus until two weeks ago.
Liuchan finally visited Oregon State in late February. It's almost unprecedented for a recruit to commit so early, sign, and still have foregone an official visit to that point.
But that's how Liuchan opted to do things. And now he's glad he finally had the chance to see OSU.
"I visited two weeks ago for my official visit," the San Marcos (Calif.) Mission Hills linebacker told BeaverBlitz.com. "I just wanted to wait until after my football season because I wanted to focus on my team and deal with all the other stuff later.
"I was really happy that I went up there. I wish I wouldn't have waited so long, but I went anyways."
It was an extended trip for Liuchan. He was in Corvallis for five days altogether, though the first two days were spent just touring the area himself with his family. They drove around town and around campus on their own before the coaches and support staff at OSU took over from there.
"That Monday they gave us a tour of the football building and all the trophies and everything," he said. "We got to see the weight room, which was really cool. I pretty much talked to the whole coaching staff. We were hanging out for a little bit, watching some film. Not really film but kind of a highlight thing. Then we were just all talking. It was a pretty great experience."
Liuchan said he felt comfortable around all of the coaches and he enjoyed meeting a couple of the players currently on the team as well.
"They want to start me at middle linebacker but it depends on how fast I pick up the defense," Liuchan concluded.
The 2014 linebacker recruit had offers from Arizona State, Cal, Iowa State, San Diego State and Washington State in addition to OSU.

Defined Benefit Pensions:
Survey of Sponsors of Large Defined Benefit Pension Plans (GAO-08-818SP, July 2008), an E-supplement to GAO-08-817
GAO-08-818SP: Published: Jul 21, 2008. Publicly Released: Jul 21, 2008.
Additional Materials:
- Full Report:
(202) 512-5491
Office of Public Affairs
(202) 512-4800
Over the last five years, a number of large, high profile employers have announced their intention to freeze-- an amendment to the plan to limit some or all future pension accruals for some or all plan participants-- their larger defined benefit (DB) plans that represent a significant portion of plan liabilities and plan participants in the private DB system. To better understand the current plan freeze environment and its significance to the DB system going forward, GAO conducted a study of sponsors of tax-qualified, single-employer, defined benefit (DB) plans that had 100 or more total participants. Specifically, we surveyed a stratified probability sample of plan sponsors about their experiences with DB plans and plan freezes. We obtained a weighted response rate of 78 percent. A more detailed discussion of our scope and methodology is contained in our report: Defined Benefit Pensions: Plan Freezes Affect Millions of Participants and May Pose Retirement Income Challenges, GAO-08-817 (Washington, D.C.: July 21, 2008). We administered the survey from November, 2007 through May 2008 in accordance with generally accepted government auditing standards.

Charles Dharapak, Associated Press
MANCHESTER, N.H. — President Barack Obama dashed into politically important New Hampshire Tuesday, seeking to steal the spotlight from Republican presidential candidates and challenging GOP lawmakers back in Washington to stand by their anti-tax pledges on one big measure.
He was greeted with a blunt message from Republican contender Mitt Romney, who bought campaign ads telling Obama, "Your policies have failed."
In his first trip to New Hampshire in nearly two years, the president was confronted by a state that has shifted sharply to the right since his victory here in the 2008 election. The state's crucial independent voters sided solidly with Republicans in the 2010 midterms, and recent polls suggest Obama would lose to Romney by 10 percentage points here if the election were held today.
Seeking to boost his appeal with independents in this low-tax state, Obama urged Congress to extend a Social Security payroll tax cut due to expire next month. In effect, he dared Republicans — many of whom have signed anti-tax pledges — to vote against an extension, a move the White House says would lead to a $1,000 tax hike on a family making $50,000 a year.
If lawmakers vote "no, your taxes go up. Yes, you get a tax cut," Obama told the crowd. "Which way do you think Congress should vote?"
"Don't be a Grinch. Don't vote to raise taxes on working Americans during the holidays," he said during his speech at a Manchester high school.
Democrats had hoped to tuck the payroll tax extension, as well as a renewal of jobless benefits, into an agreement from the congressional deficit-reduction supercommittee. But with that option off the table following the committee's collapse Monday, the White House plans to make a full-court press for a separate measure to extend the tax cuts before they expire at the end of the year — and set up Republicans as scapegoats if that doesn't happen.
Much of Obama's stop in Manchester was about trying to gain a foothold for his economic message in New Hampshire to balance the anti-Obama rhetoric from the Republican candidates swarming the state ahead of the Jan. 10 presidential primary. Obama's trip came on the same day that the GOP contenders were gathering in Washington for a foreign policy debate sure to focus on what they see as the president's failings.
Obama came face to face with the frustration of some New Hampshire voters, who are fed up with a local economy that is struggling to grow and increasingly unhappy with the president's leadership.
A group of protesters outside Manchester Central High School carried signs that read "Obama Isn't Working." And the president's speech was interrupted by a handful of people venting the frustrations of the Occupy Wall Street movement that has spread across to a number of cities.
Even some Obama supporters have sensed a shift in the state.
Naomi Preble, 62, backed Obama in the 2008 election, and the independent voter plans to vote for him again. But she said young people in New Hampshire have soured on the president.
"I think they're worried," Preble. "They don't see the strong leader they thought they elected."
Romney used Obama's trip as an opportunity to air his first 2012 television ads in the Granite State, and they were sharply critical of Obama's economic record. He also ran ads in New Hampshire newspapers that said to Obama, "I will be blunt. Your policies have failed."
Obama never mentioned his GOP challengers by name during his two-and-a-half-hour stop in New Hampshire, making only a veiled reference to their constant presence in this swing state.
"The next time you hear one of these folks from the other side coming and talking about raising your taxes, you just remind them that ever since I've gotten into office, I've lowered your taxes, haven't raised them," he said.

Losing It at the Movies
Brian DePalma's fiasco. Also: Borderline Huckabee. Foer Play. Patents and the small inventor. Plus more.
Re: Jeff Emanuel's Redacted Ad Absurdum:
Perhaps, with the latest spate of anti-American films, speeches, and appearances, the entertainment community has finally gone a bridge too far. One can only hope so.
-- Ken Shreve
I'm surprised that none of the reviewers of Redacted have pointed out that Brian DePalma has done this movie before. Casualties of War depicts a squad of soldiers kidnapping and raping a Vietnamese girl after an ambush kills several of their buddies.
It's bad enough that DePalma is a derivative hack who made his reputation by ripping off Hitchcock, but he is now apparently looking to his own earlier work for inspiration. Talk about a dry well...
-- Mike Harris
120th IN BDE
Oh, I'm afraid far too many people actually will see this movie -- the wrong ones of course. From your description, I have no doubt that the DVD will be circulated in Jihadi networks and will be very popular. I'm sure it will serve them well as an excellent recruiting and motivational tool.
-- Paul
Mr. DePalma has decided to take on the MoveOn responsibility of painting the entire U.S. military with a broad paint brush. As correctly stated in Mr. Emanuel's column, the organization that employed the guilty troops took care of business with more veracity than one would expect from the civilian court system stateside. A 110 year sentence for the lookout alone shows how the UCMJ is based upon a higher level of moral authority than any legislature-passed code could ever hope to do so.
An important issue not discussed in the column is the actual moneyman who funded the production of Redacted. If memory serves, this elitist also owns the NBA's Dallas Mavericks franchise. Now, just as any conservative libertarian would protect the First Amendments rights of any U.S. citizen, I will not deny Mr. Cuban's right to spend his treasury as he wishes. However, I will stand with all those who identify him as an unpatriotic publicity whore.
-- Owen H. Carneal
Yorktown, Virginia
Brian DePalma has to rely on violence and inflammatory lies to cover up his lack of talent. Does anyone remember the mess he made of Bonfire of the Vanities?
-- Anne T. Stinneford
Jeff Emanuel quotes Brian DePalma: "The pictures are what will stop the war..."
Has it ever occurred to the misogynistic fantasist DePalma that, perhaps, the pictures are what cause the rape?

Re: Viet D. Dinh's Yes to the Patent Reform Act:
Mr. Dinh argues for the Patent Reform Act while complaining about "sharp increase in the number of low quality patents." However, based on court rulings of the last several years, roughly half of all litigated patents are upheld in court. That's pretty balanced and suggests there is no problem with patent quality. Further, seldom do cases ever make it to trial as the parties settle out of court. The facts do not support the contention that there is a patent quality issue. Still, with almost half a million patent applications filed each year a few are bound to be issued that shouldn't. However, rarely are they ever an issue because you can't enforce them without money and you won't get the money unless you have a good patent. Keep in mind it costs the patent holder about as much in a patent suit as it does the accused infringer. Investors are not stupid. If they don't have confidence in your patent, they will not invest. It's that simple. Bad patents do not get funded.
If there is a problem with the patent system, it is not that patents are issued too hastily but rather that many are issued too slowly. Witness the current backlog and pendency. I for example have applications with a pendency of over 15 years! In one instance it took 3 years just to get a first office action. With this kind of pendency by the time an inventor gets their patent their technology is of no value. That is the problem everyone should be focused on -- not this imaginary issue of patent quality trumped up and propped up by large multinationals as a way to stifle innovation and further cement their market control. Can you say "monopoly"?
This and many other myths of Mr. Dinh are debunked by a paper published by Economist Pat Choate. The paper can be viewed here.
All this talk of a need for patent "deform" is then but a red herring fabricated by a handful of large tech firms and their lackeys as a diversion away from the real issue...that they have no valid defense against charges they are using other parties' technologies without permission. It's not about reforming the system. It's about legalizing theft!
When corporate America agrees to not use our inventions without consent, American inventors and small entities will agree to stop suing them.

Re: John Tabin's Franklin Foer's Paranoia:
Foer's article is amazingly similar to a recent article about Dan Rather still trying to prove his "Rathergate" story. His main "proof" was the White House refusing to deny the story. Some press guy at the White House or the military for that matter isn't going to stick his neck out denying something that he is not sure of one way or the other. Crazed liberals now view cautious non denials as proof of facts. Sad.
-- Greg Allison
Rancho Santa Fe, California
John, Thanks for staying on top of this mega fraud of a story. Your Sunday AmSpecBlog post, with its accompanying link to Mr. Foer's loopy stream of consciousness "apology" for his and the New Republic's horrific journalistic malfeasance, says it all about elite, leftist media bias. I urge TAS readers to link to your post and read for themselves Foer's window into the mind of abject leftist hatred and denial. The entire Beauchamp imbroglio, should, once and for all, blow the lid on how far the elite leftist media will go in its propagandist desires. An anonymous military source, brought to the attention of Foer by Beauchamp's own wife, also at TNR, who, while acting as his fact-checker, also vouched for his leftist bias. A la CNN, Foer now admits that Beauchamp's anti-war proclivities were public before his military postings. The number of basic journalistic principles Foer and TNR broke, renders one speechless.
This is analogous to Bill Burkett's wife, reprising the role of Valerie Plame, serving as fact-checker for Mary Mapes and Dan Rather, while also working at CBS. Welcome to the new Orwellian paradigm of journalism, as practiced by the left. And to think, with the memories of CNN's fake "undecided" debate participants, fresh in our minds. Is this the new de rigueur curriculum as taught by elite schools of journalism such as Columbia?
Mr. Foer, prior to his being fired, needs to dedicate the next issue of TNR to this debacle and fess up for his deliberate desire to defame our troops and impact the war effort. The rest of the MSM also needs to finally drop their charade of objectivity and come clean. This story also needs to be told to all Americans, over and over again, until this insanity stops.

2. Ditto for anyone who believes a hostile government takeover "could never happen here."

Re: Jeremy Lott's Mike W. Huckabee:
Mr. Lott, if it is your purpose to convince simple, conservative voters like me that Huckabee and George Bush are not separated at birth twins, politically, then you are on a fool's errand. Both men are biiiiggg government, "compassionate" conservatives. Huckabee got along sufficiently well with the Dems in the legislature, often by agreeing with them. Bush was the absolute darling of the Dems in the Texas state legislature. I remember the Speaker of the Texas legislature being effusive in his praise of Bush and predicting that he would get along just fine with the Dems in Washington. Then the Washington Dems smacked the Texas Speaker with a wet mackerel for his trouble.
Both men believe in amnesty for illegal aliens that can manage to get into our country. Both men believe in dispensing all manner of government services to the ILLEGAL aliens that have made it here. Both men believe in the death penalty and the individual right formulation of the 2nd Amendment. Both men are pro-life, and as noted, both are fitness nags. I can't stand people that are constantly judging others by their girth instead of their brain or heart. If God meant for me to be thin, He wouldn't have changed my metabolism in my mid 20s. They both seem to be wedded to the "social conservative" agenda of the GOP's Christian activists. The wives and families of both men seemed to be relatively unknown quantities at similar points is the nomination process.
The differences seem to be that Huckabee is more willing to raise taxes and government fees then Bush, and Huckabee can actually give a coherent speech explaining his position. It seems to me that the extreme number and type of the similarities between the two mere serve to highlight the extremely few differences.
-- Ken Shreve
Why is it, I wonder, that Jeremy Lott can do a feature story on Mike Huckabee's quest for the presidency that totally eschews the governor's perspective on how the Federal government should deal with illegal immigration, an issue that rivets public attention? The dissatisfaction amongst the electorate on that problem is palpable, and the issue transcends party: in New Hampshire, Mrs. Clinton was booed loudly when responding to a question dealing with her future handling of illegal immigration. Further, Mr. Lott's emphasis on Huckabee's position on the death penalty seems misplaced, for the last time I looked, it still was a state matter.
As for dealing with the scourge of abortion, the next President of the United States can bring moral suasion to bear, and his choices of future "Supremes" are important markers to social conservatives, but the immediate question before the house that bestirs many GOP and Independent voters in upcoming primaries is the bizarre question: Will the GOP candidate promise to enforce existing law on illegal immigration? About that, Mr. Lott is mute.
Last week, however, Huckabee was asked specifically about his record, which I would describe as abysmal, in dealing with illegal aliens while Governor of Arkansas, specifically his full-throated support of giving in-state tuition to the children of illegal aliens. After repeating the nostrums that Liberals generally provide to answer the question, Gov. Huckabee 's response was: "What I support ...is the humane treatment of human beings." That answer tells you a lot about Huckabee's future handling of illegal immigration, for while it may be touching and compassionate to some, he is untrustworthy in resolving this issue, and the voters will let him know of their dissatisfaction on Primary Day.
Mr. Lott may unfavorably conflate Huckabee's political future with the current record of the incumbent in the White House, but I believe that, in one way at least, they are similar: neither one has, or will, enforce the current statutes dealing with illegal immigration. That is why no organization that takes border enforcement and carrying out of immigration law seriously will endorse Gov. Huckabee. Fool me once, shame on you; fool me twice, shame on me!

Re: Samuel A. Hill's letter (under "No News is Bad News") in Reader Mail's Fair Tax Counting:
While I cannot predict what the future holds as regards OIF, I must respectfully disagree with Mr. Hill's WWI analogy. He wrote:
[T]he so-called "surge" being a "success" being solely based upon fewer American deaths, and explosions around Baghdad? Idiocy! Totally illogical. Picture this: WWI troops, huddled in a 7 foot trench half-full water, congratulating each other on the fact that a whole day has passed without the enemy shooting at them, calling it a "success." Face it, American occupation troops fight in a solely defensive position. Except for kicking in a few Iraqi home's doors, they must wait to be attacked. Result: it is the enemy, not them, that determines the frequency and amount of warfare!
Invoking WWI conjures stark imagery -- trenches stretching along the border separating two great power blocs, largely static for over four years despite enormous efforts on both sides to break the stalemate. Stagnation, however, is only half of the picture. Wouldn't the location of the lines have some bearing on a comprehensive assessment of a military situation? One can easily imagine the malaise of the Allies, failing day after day to achieve more than a few yards' progress at the front--a front located almost entirely on the friendly side of prewar borders for most of the war. The unpleasantness of a "trench half full of water" aside, mightn't the Doughboys' perspective have been a bit different had those ditches cut through, not the Flemish countryside, but the gardens of Sans Souci? And might not a bit of enthusiasm have been warranted if, under such circumstances, suddenly one day the Kaiser's guards stopped shooting back?
Our "solely defensive" bastion lies right in the heart of the Caliphate. So long as the war consisted mostly of getting shot at or blown up with no end in sight, the occupation of previously-hostile territory was little cause for celebration. Now the circumstances are different: The enemy may indeed "determine the frequency and amount of warfare" but, exhausted in a futile struggle for an ignoble cause, he is opting increasingly for a low frequency and amount indeed. Two wrestlers struggling for a takedown is a static situation; so is a pin. After a certain amount of time, the latter results in victory.

I work for a hosting company, where we offer colocation services.
Since we offer colocation for client hardware which we don't own, a lot of the client devices don't have an IPMI module to allow for a remote reboot. As a result, when one of these machines crashes, we get a call to reboot it, which we do by physically accessing the power button.
This is inconvenient, obviously, especially outside of business hours, when we don't have anyone on-site and have to come into the office to reboot a computer. I know that on servers from OEMs like HP and Dell and IBM, you get an out-of-band-management interface which provides essentially the same functionality as physical access would.
Is this kind of hardware available independent of the an OEM-specific model? I'm thinking of something like a PCI card (for example) that I could plug into any brand of computer to give me IPMI or remote power-cycling functionality, but that's just off the top of my head.
What hardware is typically used to do this?

A New York Times/CBS poll reported last week that only 22 percent of Americans surveyed wanted a complete troop pullout within the next year. Petraeus also won on another level: believability and trust. Going into the hearings, Gallup reported that 63 percent of Americans trusted his recommendations on Iraq.
Throughout the grilling to which both he and the U.S. ambassador to Iraq, Ryan Crocker, were subjected, Petraeus never flinched, never once showed any emotion and pointedly declined to engage in hypothetical questions. He stuck to his report and stayed on message over two days and three separate committee hearings.
His cool, nonpolitical, noncombative demeanor was in sharp contrast to the politically transparent anger he faced in both the House and Senate. Sen. Barack Obama, trying to jump-start his presidential candidacy, used most of his allotted time as a member of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee to deliver a political speech fiercely criticizing administration war policy, instead of posing questions about Petraeus' testimony.
With his time nearly up, he hastily asked Crocker, with little apparent thought, about "benchmarks." "Senator, I described (them) for Sen. (John) Sununu a little bit ago," Crocker replied. Taken aback, Obama asked, "Can you repeat those?"
The leftist group MoveOn had tried to cut Petraeus down to size on the day of his first hearing with a $100,000 ad in the New York Times that called the career Army officer, who has been on the front lines of the Iraq war, "General Betray Us," accusing him of "cooking the books."
But the ad only served to embarrass Democratic leaders, who were asked to defend a hateful personal attack on a widely admired decorated soldier that Republicans called "disgraceful."
Now, less than four months before the 2008 election year, the debate over the war has changed dramatically. The argument -- at least for now -- is no longer whether the surge is working. It has worked, and is working.
Suddenly, the Democrats' antiwar cry of "bring the troops home" does not carry the same weight it did before. Instead, they face the prospect of campaigning in next year's presidential primaries amid news reports of ongoing U.S. troop withdrawals as the Iraqi army grows in experience, size and lethality.
In the meantime, Petraeus faces the difficult task of holding the ground that U.S. and Iraqi troops have cleared, while extending his gains elsewhere in the country by next July. That's when he must reassess the next step when he hopes the Iraqi military will be even stronger, and ready to shoulder more of the fighting and dying for their country.

Article: Human White and Brite Adipogenesis is Supported by MSCA1 and is Impaired by Immune Cells: MSCA1 is a Player of White/Brite Adipogenesis[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Obesity-associated inflammation contributes to the development of metabolic diseases. While brite adipocytes have been shown to ameliorate metabolic parameters in rodents, their origin and differentiation remain to be characterized in humans. Native CD45-/CD34+/CD31- cells have been previously described as human adipocyte progenitors. Using two additional cell surface markers, MSCA1 (tissue non-specific alkaline phosphatase), and CD271 (nerve growth factor receptor), we are able to partition the CD45-/CD34+/CD31- cell population into three subsets. We establish serum-free culture conditions without cell expansion to promote either white/brite adipogenesis using rosiglitazone or Bone Morphogenetic Protein 7 (BMP7), or specifically brite adipogenesis using 3-Isobuthyl-1-Methylxanthine. We demonstrate that adipogenesis leads to an increase of MSCA1 activity, expression of white/brite adipocyte-related genes and mitochondriogenesis. Using pharmacological inhibition and gene silencing approaches, we show that MSCA1 activity is required for triglyceride accumulation and for the expression of white/brite-related genes in human cells. Moreover, native immunoselected MSCA1+ cells exhibit brite precursor characteristics and the highest adipogenic potential of the three progenitor subsets. Finally, we provided evidence that MSCA1+ white/brite precursors accumulate with obesity in subcutaneous adipose tissue (sAT) and that local BMP7 and inflammation regulate brite adipogenesis by modulating MSCA1 in human sAT. The accumulation of MSCA1+ white/brite precursors in sAT with obesity may reveal a blockade of their differentiation by immune cells, suggesting that local inflammation contributes to metabolic disorders through impairment of white/brite adipogenesis.

Article: Comparison of the incidence of cholelithiasis after sleeve gastrectomy and Roux-en-Y gastric bypass in obese patients: A prospective study[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Although the risk of cholelithiasis (CL) increases in patients after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB), no prospective study has yet assessed the incidence of CL after sleeve gastrectomy (SG). To compare, prospectively, the incidence and predictive factors for CL after both procedures. A postoperative abdominal ultrasound follow-up was proposed to all patients with an intact gallbladder and who underwent RYGB or SG in Hôpital Louis Mourier from 2008 onward. At least one ultrasound was performed on one hundred and sixty patients between 6 and 12 months postsurgery, 43 after SG and 117 after RYGB. Age, gender, initial body-mass index, co-morbidities were similar in both groups. Weight loss (WL) at 6 months was significantly lower after SG than after RYGB (26.9±9.2 and 31.3±7.5 kg, respectively = .001). The incidences of CL after SG and RYGB were similar (28% versus 34% respectively, P = .57). Most cases of CL occurred in the first year post surgery. During the follow-up, 12% and 13% of patients who underwent SG and RYGB, respectively, became symptomatic. WL of>30 kg at 6 months was a risk factor for CL after bariatric surgery, but we did not find any preoperative predictive factor for gallstone formation. Despite lower WL after SG, the incidence of CL after SG and RYGB was similar at 2 years. Our results suggest that rapid WL is the main element leading to gallstone formation after both procedures.

Article: Long-term Evolution of Nutritional Deficiencies After Gastric Bypass An Assessment According to Compliance to Medical Care[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: To study long-term nutritional deficits based on adherence to a standardized nutritional care after gastric bypass (GBP). Long-term prospective data on nutritional complications after GBP are missing. It is not known whether severe deficiencies are prevented by standard multivitamin supplementation and what parameters are influenced by patient adherence to nutritional care. One hundred forty-four consecutive subjects from our prospective database (90% women, initial body mass index: 48 ± 15 kg/m, age: 43 ± 10 years) who underwent GBP more than 3 years before the study were assessed. Multivitamins were systematically prescribed after GBP, and additional supplements were introduced if deficiencies were recorded during follow-up. We identified a group of 66 compliant subjects who attended yearly medical visits and a group of 32 noncompliant subjects who were recalled because they had not attended any visit for more than 2 years. Weight loss was 42 ± 14 kg at 3 years or later. The number of nutritional deficits per subject was 3.2 ± 2.3 before surgery and did not significantly increase between 1 and 3 years or later after GBP (3.4 ± 2.0 and 3.5 ± 2.3, respectively). However, specific nutritional deficits occurred despite long-term multivitamin supplementation, including vitamins B1, B12, and D and iron. Noncompliant subjects had more deficits than compliant subjects (4.2 ± 1.9 vs 2.9 ± 2.0 deficits per patient, P < 0.01) and the number of deficits correlated with the time from last visit (r = 0.285, P < 0.01). Lifelong medical care is required to maintain a good nutritional status after GBP. Monitoring of nutritional parameters is necessary to add supplementation for deficits that are not prevented by multivitamin preparations.
Article: Comparison of Nutritional Status During the First Year After Sleeve Gastrectomy and Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Sleeve gastrectomy (SG) is supposed to induce fewer nutritional deficiencies than gastric bypass (GBP). However, few studies have compared nutritional status after these two procedures, and the difference in weight loss (WL) between procedures may alter the results. Thus, our aim was to compare nutritional status after SG and GBP in subjects matched for postoperative weight. Forty-three subjects who underwent SG were matched for age, gender, and 6-month postoperative weight with 43 subjects who underwent GBP. Dietary intakes (DI), metabolic (MP), and nutritional parameters (NP) were recorded before and at 6 and 12 months after both procedures. Multivitamin supplements were systematically prescribed after surgery. Before surgery, BMI, DI, MP, and NP were similar between both groups. After surgery, LDL cholesterol, serum prealbumin, vitamin B12, urinary calcium, and vitamin D concentrations were lower after GBP than after SG, whereas WL and DI were similar after both procedures. However, the total number of deficiencies did not increase after surgery regardless of the procedure. In addition, we found a significant increase in liver enzymes and a greater decrease in C-reactive protein after GBP. In conclusion, during the first year after surgery, in patients with the same WL and following the same strategy of vitamin supplementation, global nutritional status was only slightly impaired after SG and GBP. However, some nutritional parameters were specifically altered after GBP, which could be related to malabsorption or other mechanisms, such as alterations in liver metabolism.

Article: Gastric Leak After Laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy: Early Covered Self-Expandable Stent Reduces Healing Time[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Background: Laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy has become a very frequent procedure in bariatric surgery due to its efficacy and simplicity compared to gastric bypass. Gastric staple line leak (1 to 7 % of cases) is a severe complication with a long nonstandardized treatment. The aim of this retrospective study was to examine the success and tolerance of covered stents in its management. Methods: From January 2009 to December 2011, nine patients with gastric staple line leaks after sleeve gastrectomy were treated with covered stents in our department (seven referred from other institutions). The leaks were diagnosed by CT scan and visualized during the endoscopy. Among the studied variables were operative technique, post-operative fistula diagnosis delay, stent treatment delay, and stent tolerance. In our institution, Hanarostent® (length 17 cm, diameter 18 mm; M.I. Tech, Seoul, Korea) was used and inserted under direct endoscopic control. Results: Stent treatment was successful in seven cases (78 %). Two other cases had total gastrectomy (405 and 185 days after leak diagnosis). Early stent removal (due to migration or poor tolerance) was necessary in three cases. The average stent treatment duration was of 6.4 weeks, and the average healing time was 141 days. The five patients with an early stent treatment (≤ 3 weeks after leak diagnosis) had an average healing time of 99 days versus 224 for the four others. Conclusions: Covered self-expandable stent is an effective treatment of gastric leaks after sleeve gastrectomy. Early stent treatment seems to be associated with shorter healing time.
Article: Serum Vitamin D Increases with Weight Loss in Obese Subjects 6 Months After Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Background: Malabsorptive surgical procedures lead to deficiencies in fat-soluble vitamins. However, results concerning serum vitamin D (25OHD) after gastric bypass (GBP) are controversial. The aim of the study was to assess the influence of GBP on 25OHD and calcium metabolism. Methods: Parameters of calcium metabolism were evaluated in 202 obese subjects before and 6 months after GBP. Thirty of them were matched for age, gender, weight, skin color, and season with 30 subjects who underwent sleeve gastrectomy (SG). A multivitamin preparation that provides 200 to 500 IU vitamin D3 per day was systematically prescribed after surgery. Results: In the 202 patients after GBP, serum 25OHD significantly increased from 13.4 ± 9.1 to 22.8 ± 11.3 ng/ml (p < 0.0001), whereas parathyroid hormone (PTH) did not change. Despite a decrease in calcium intake (p < 0.0001) and urinary calcium/creatinine ratio (p = 0.015), serum calcium increased after GBP (p < 0.0001). Preoperatively, 91 % of patients had 25OHD insufficiency (< 30 ng/ml), 80% deficiency (< 20 ng/ml), and 19% secondary hyperparathyroidism (> 65 pg/ml) vs. 76, 44, and 17%, respectively, following GBP. Serum 25OHD was negatively correlated with BMI at 6 months after GBP (R = -0.299, p < 0.0001). In the two groups of 30 subjects, serum 25OHD and PTH did not differ at 6 months after GBP or SG. Conclusions: At 6 months after GBP, serum 25OHD significantly increased in subjects supplemented with multivitamins containing low doses of vitamin D. These data suggest that weight loss at 6 months after surgery has a greater influence on vitamin D status than malabsorption induced by GBP.

Article: Predictive Factors of Weight Loss 1 Year after Laparoscopic Gastric Bypass in Obese Patients[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Substantial weight loss is achieved in majority of severely obese subjects undergoing laparoscopic gastric bypass (LGBP) but some fail to obtain expected results. Our aim was to identify preoperative factors that could influence weight loss (WL) 1 year after LGBP. We studied the predictive value of clinical, biological, and dietary preoperative factors on weight loss in obese patients referred for LGBP. WL was assessed according to mean absolute weight loss (AWL) and mean percent excess weight loss (%EWL) 1 year after LGBP. One hundred twenty-three subjects were included (112 women, age 42 ± 10 years; weight 127 ± 23 kg; BMI 47 ± 8 kg/m(2)). Mean AWL was 39.4 ± 10.5 kg at 1 year, corresponding to a mean %EWL of 70.5 ± 21.2%. AWL was positively correlated with initial weight, BMI, and energy intake and negatively with age, female sex, and treatment for hypertension and diabetes. %EWL was negatively correlated with initial weight, BMI, and positively correlated with triglycerides and ferritinemia. In multivariate analysis, %EWL was negatively correlated only with initial BMI (p < 0.001). AWL was positively correlated with initial BMI and male sex (both p < 0.001), and negatively correlated with protein intake (p = 0.039) and treatment for diabetes (p = 0.021), but not with biomarkers of diabetes and insulin resistance. Initial BMI appears to be a strong determinant of individual WL, but predictive factors differ when WL was expressed as %EWL or AWL. The treatment of diabetes rather than diabetes itself appears to affect WL.

Article: Cytoreductive surgery associated to hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemoperfusion for desmoplastic round small cell tumor with peritoneal carcinomatosis in young patients[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Desmoplastic round small cell tumor (DRSCT) is a rare intraabdominal mesenchymal tissue neoplasm in young patients and spreads through the abdominal cavity. Its prognosis is poor despite a multimodal therapy including chemotherapy, radiotherapy, and surgical cytoreduction (CS). hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) is considered as an additional strategy in the treatment of peritoneal carcinomatosis; for this reason, we planned to treat selected cases of children with DRSCT using CS and HIPEC. Peritoneal disease extension was evaluated according to Gilly classification. Surgical cytoreduction was considered as completeness of cytoreduction-0 when no macroscopic nodule was residual; HIPEC was performed according to the open technique. We described 3 cases: the 2 first cases were realized for palliative conditions and the last one was operated on with curative intent. There was no postoperative mortality. One patient was reoperated for a gallbladder perforation. There was no other complication related to HIPEC procedure. Surgical cytoreduction and HIPEC provide a local alternative approach to systemic chemotherapy in the control of microscopic peritoneal disease in DRSCT, with an acceptable morbidity, and may be considered as a potential beneficial adjuvant waiting for a more specific targeted therapy against the fusion protein.

Article: Temporary Restoration of Digestive Continuity After Laparoscopic Gastric Bypass to Allow Endoscopic Sphincterotomy and Retrograde Exploration of the Biliary Tract[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: The prevalence of morbid obesity is rapidly increasing worldwide. As surgery has been recognized to be the only effective treatment for morbid obesity, the number of bariatric procedure realized each year has dramatically increased. Among all the surgical options, gastric bypass in considered as the gold standard. A possible drawback of this operation is the difficult access to the excluded proximal intestinal tract and, consequently, to the biliary tract. As gallstone formation may be frequent after a rapid weight loss induced by surgery, surgeons could be frequently asked to face the need of exploration of the biliary tree after anatomical changes induced by this kind of surgery. Many technical solutions, mainly based on a combined laparoscopic and endoscopic approach, have been proposed by several authors to face this problem. We herein describe an original technique to allow endoscopic exploration of biliary tract after a laparoscopic gastric bypass based on temporary restoration of physiological digestive continuity followed by re-establishment of the Roux-en-Y loop.

Article: Laparoscopic hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) for the treatment of malignant ascites secondary to unresectable peritoneal carcinomatosis from advanced gastric cancer[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: To review our experience of laparoscopic hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) in the treatment of malignant ascites from advanced gastric cancer in order to discuss benefits, problems and possible indications. From June 2000 to May 2003 laparoscopic approach was used to perform HIPEC on five patients affected by malignant ascites secondary to unresectable peritoneal carcinomatosis of gastric origin, in order to associate the benefits of a definitive palliation of ascites with a minimal invasiveness. All patients had ascites related symptoms requiring iterative paracenteses. Intraperitoneal perfusion of mitomycin-C and cisplatin was delivered for 60-90min with an inflow temperature of 45 degrees C. Complete clinical regression of ascites and related symptoms was achieved in all the five patients treated. Intraoperative course was uneventful in all cases. Mean operative time was 181min. No postoperative deaths, related to the procedure, occurred. Only a case of delayed gastric empting was recorded as a minor postoperative complication. Laparoscopic HIPEC appears to be a safe and effective procedure to treat debilitating malignant ascites from unresectable peritoneal carcinomatosis.
Article: [Fissure syndrome of a gastrointestinal artery pseudoaneurysm in contact with a pseudocyst of the pancreas: rare, but serious complication of chronic pancreatitis].[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Most pseudoaneurysms (PsA) of the peripancreatic arteries cause direct erosion of the arterial wall from pancreatic enzymes that are usually in contact with or in a pseudocyst (PC). Rupturing is a rare and serious complication (90% mortality if untreated). We report the case of a 56-year-old patient with chronic alcoholic pancreatitis who developed a cephaloisthmic PC, complicated with a PsA of the gastroduodenal artery revealed by pain and deglobulization associated with cholestasis. After a diagnostic scan, emergency selective arteriography with coil embolization was performed. Five days later, hemorrhage recurred and a cephalic duodenopancreatectomy was performed. PsA of the gastroduodenal artery occur in the first 10 years of chronic pancreatitis. They are revealed by abdominal pains and/or gastrointestinal hemorrhage or shock from rupture. A scan with arterial reconstruction provides diagnosis. Arteriography is the most sensitive technique to locate the aneurysm and its branches and to perform selective embolization with coils. The failure rate is between 0 and 23%. Surgical treatment (elective ligation of the artery or partial pancreatic excision) should be limited to when embolisation fails and/or recurrent hemorrhage.

An easy summer side dish, this Corn Casserole Recipe is a family favorite!
The introduction to this recipe starts out "I don't know a single Southern family that doesn't serve some variation of this recipe." That sentence alone convinced me that I needed to try this recipe! Then after doing a search online, I realized that maybe I'm the only person alive who has never had a corn casserole before!!
I can see why this is a perfect side dish for a Southern meal. I'm a cornbread fan, and this almost reminds me of cornbread – but with more corn. And it's quite forgiving, as well. I was on the phone as I was putting the ingredients together, and I didn't drain my corn. But the casserole still turned out well!!
I see this recipe as a great jumping off point, too. While it was baking, I kept thinking that I wish I would have added some green chile or jalepenos to the mix. Or bacon would be phenomenal. It's so easy that you could throw it together to go along with any weeknight meal!

I'm originally from New England, but have lived in the South for some time now and I've had MANY corn casseroles. I like them but my born and raised southern boyfriend doesn't. Go figure.
I think bacon is an awesome idea, it does make everything better.
YUM.. This sounds so great. Printing this recipe now : )
That's so crazy you shared this today. I made a corn casserole a week ago and was going to share it on my blog next week!
Well, I guess there were TWO of us left. Now I'm the only person who's never had one. But I LOVE corn. This is getting made super soon.
I call this spoon bread and I LOVE it. YUM!
Here in the good ole midwest, we thrive on corn casseroles…and we have the hips to prove it! Seriously, it just doesn't get much better. This is always a staple on our Thanksgiving table, and now I'm thinking I haven't made one since last Thanksgiving? My bad!!!
This is almost exactly the recipe I use for my corn casserole, yet mine looks like a souffle and yours looks like a corn bread. It must be the vessel it's cooked in. Amazingly versatile. It is delicious no matter what it's cooked in.
I've made this before and it is sooooo good. But I lost my recipe. I'm so glad to see it here! Thanks
My mom makes a casserole just like this one except she doesn't use the cheese. It's delicious, but I'm of the opinion that cheese improves everything. I'll have to suggest it next time.
I'm from Mississippi and now live in North Carolina. My family makes a version of this, but we consider it cornbread not a corn casserole. Ours includes jalapenos and green onion — something to consider!
I love making this recipe too! So easy and is always a hit!
OMGosh…..made this for dinner last nite!!! Sooooooooo yummy!!! MUCH better than the recipe I've been using! The only thing different I did was add half of the cheese to the mixture before baking…..I will definitely be making this more often!!!! Thank you!
Love this little recipe. Thank you.

Former Northwood High standout Zack Weiss and former Woodbridge High star J.J. Altobelli were each taken in last week's Major League Baseball Draft.
Altobelli just finished his senior year at the University of Oregon.
Altobelli was drafted in the 18th round, the 545th overall pick, by the St. Louis Cardinals.
The senior shortstop was a Pac-12 Conference first-team all-league pick and one of 14 players named to the Brooks Wallace Shortstop of the Year Award watch list in 2013.
He batted.276 with 24 RBI, while leading all Pac-12 shortstops with a .980 fielding percentage.
Altobelli finished his career at Oregon as the all-time leader in the Ducks' record books in games started (229), hits (211), runs (127) and at bats (802), while also ranking among the all-time leaders in doubles (second), RBI (second), walks (fourth) and stolen bases (eighth).
Weiss is in his junior year at UCLA.
Weiss, a right-handed reliever, was taken in the sixth round with pick No. 195 by the Cincinnati Reds.
Weiss served primarily as UCLA's eighth inning setup man this season and has posted a record of 2-1 with a 2.33 ERA in 41 relief appearances.
Weiss' 41 appearances ranked second in the Pac-12 this season only to teammate David Berg's 44.
He helped UCLA defeat Cal State Fullerton in the Super Regional in Fullerton last weekend and move the Bruins along to this weekend's College World Series in Omaha, Neb.
In his career heading into last Saturday's game against UCLA, Weiss owned a record of 10-7 with a 3.32 ERA in 79 appearances (22 starts).
He was the third UCLA player drafted by the Reds in the last two seasons, joining former teammates Jeff Gelalich (2012 supplemental first round selection) and Beau Amaral (2012 eighth round selection).
