Customer Engagement
When selling products or services to a client it is viewed by many that 'that's it, job done and lets all celebrate'. The truth is, to remain top of mind and competitive in a crowded market place, the sale is just the beginning and we have to engage with our customers on an on-going basis. However, there are key points to remember so your communications don't become bookmarks or simply deleted!
It could be product updates, new product launches, discount offers, value added services or even spending vital marketing funds on simple messages such as 'happy birthday'! The truth is – the latter, whilst difficult to track ROI on a single message, it will more than likely put you on a road to building long term sustainable relationships with your customers, rather than trying to directly 'sell' in most of your communications without the knowledge of what is relevant to your customers on a personal level. Of course, product news and the latest 'mod con' advertising has its place and objective in the marketing plan, but recognising customers through events in their life, starting with their birthday will help you to build a profile of your customers above and beyond what they have purchased, to an understanding of what they are likely to purchase and what segment of customer group they fall into.
Strategies such as this are just the beginning of a new journey and will help create an emotional stickiness that will improve your ROI on cross selling and up-selling new products to them later on. Many global brands have had such marketing activity in place for years so should be considered 'hygiene' in developing a robust CRM plan.
The important factors when developing a CRM strategy is to be a) consistent, b) relevant and c) true to you brand values in your communications. It's also the level of engagement you adopt with your customers, which must be carefully calculated so that you are not spamming them (i.e. sending emails which are not relevant to them and therefore not giving your customers value).
My favourite band, Chickenfoot, is a good example of positive engagement – they manage this by providing me with an App! They send me emails I subscribed to (more often than not I don't have time to read them), but their App on my smart phone always gets my engagement when it's convenient – plus all their news is on there – tour news, new music and merchandise updates etc. They even take 'fan photos' from their tour and post them on their social network site as 'fan pick of the day' before thanking their fans directly – now that's an innovative way to engage whilst building an emotive bond with their customers!
A closing point to re-emphasise this post…. building a profile around your customer's personal preferences, alongside their transaction history, will enable you to build long term relationships and ensure your engagement strategy hits the right notes that result in: more frequent purchases, a brand perceived as that which offers greater value and happier, more engaged customers!
Do you think there is a lack of innovation in your sector for appealing engagement tools or do you suffer with a lack of data which is making life tough to move forward?

Diet and nutrition are the most significant factors involved in the process of muscle build up. It may involve jogging, running, bike riding and push ups to name a few.
The method of weight training is employed for building muscles, but the importance of specific vitamins and nutritional food can not be negated, without the usage of which building muscles is practically impossible regardless of the respective methods employed. The technique basically involves light exercises on a daily basis in the preliminary stages. The increment in their number is brought slowly and steadily on a weekly basis.
A regular routine should be followed for the initial couple of months, for example with around three sets of twenty each if the workout being conducted falls in the genre of push ups. The level of the exercises should be increased with every passing month, in fact after the second month it should be doubled.
Some useful guidelines involved as far as the muscle buildup is concerned have been highlighted in the next lines. The usage of machines should be sought along with weights. A proper and a healthy diet should be aimed for with focus being on the proteins. The most important tip for building muscles is to workout every second day instead of on a daily basis. Further the genre of exercise should be varied instead of sticking to a single workout kind and routine.
There are certain side effects that follow this process. If a body is over worked or under worked in some cases it is going to become tender and be easily prone to cramping. The utilization of steroids should be prevented. Further in case the individual encounters a wound and is unable to continue with his regular routine, when he starts again he will have to do so from scratch.

Another Diabetes Drug is Linked to Pancreas Inflammation
The FDA said today that Merck's diabetes drug Januvia may be associated with pancreatitis, a serious inflammation of the pancreas that can lead to hospitalization and, in rare cases, death. Merck said that the data suggest the drug doesn't cause pancreatitis.
This is the second time in just over a year that a popular, new-ish diabetes drug has been linked to pancreatitis — the previous case was Byetta, which is co-marketed by Amylin and Eli Lilly. In that instance, several deaths were reported.
The FDA said today it had received 88 reports of pancreatitis in patients taking Januvia and Janumet, a related drug that combines Januiva with the diabetes medicine metformin. The agency didn't report any deaths in cases of pancreatitis in patients taking the drugs, but 66% of the cases did require hospitalization. In 21% of cases, pancreatitis occurred within 30 days of starting Januvia or Janumet; 53% of the cases resolved once after the drug was discontinued.
Merck said that data from clinical trials that included more than 6,000 people, as well as reports that have emerged since the drug has been on the market, don't show an increased risk of pancreatitis associated with Januvia. The statement notes that simply having diabetes increases the risk of the disorder.
Amylin and Lilly have been named as defendants in Byetta cases brought by 110 plaintiffs in cases primarily related to pancreatitis, Amylin said in its most recent quarterly report. Byetta sales fell slightly in the first half of this year, to $332.8 million from $336 million in the year-earlier period.
Byetta and Januvia are different classes of drugs. But they work in related ways. Januvia slows the breakdown of a hormone known as GLP-1 and a related hormone; Byetta mimics naturally occurring GLP-1.
Merck's sales of Januvia and Janumet totaled more than $1 billion in the first six months of this year.

Editor's note: Dave Coulson is the Colorado state editor for FishExplorer.com. He contributes a weekly fishing report to the Summit Daily News. For more local and regional fishing information, visit www.fishexplorer.com.
Now is a great time to be ice fishing for lake trout. The major area reservoirs such as Grand, Granby, Williams Fork, and Green Mountain all have good ice caps. All but Grand are reporting good action, although most of the fish are in the 12-20-inch class.
Anglers doing best are locating areas with good structure, such as an underwater ledge, near a steep drop-off, rocky faces, etc. Tube jigs tipped with a strip of sucker meat are the favorite lures. If you have a second rod stamp, consider using jigging spoons, Kastmasters for example, while dead sticking the sucker-tipped jig.
Note due to the high numbers of small lakers at Green Mountain and Granby, anglers are encouraged to keep fish under 20 inches.
If you're looking for action, consider some of the smaller waters, such as Sylvan, Officer's Gulch, or Williams Creek. Use lighter tackle, four- or six-pound line and small ice jigs for good results. While reds and pinks continue to get the best reports, don't hesitate to switch to darker colors as action is a bit slow.
Dillon action has slowed a lot around the inlets. Likely the result of heavy pressure and the kokanee run waning. If the action is slow, move to areas that don't resemble Swiss cheese.
South Park waters continue to produce some good fish, but all in all, the action has been slower. Of the group, Eleven Mile is producing the best, with most being able to pick up a limit over the course of the day. A few pike are being caught.

NAACP Mourns the Loss of Restaurateur Sylvia WoodsJuly 20, 2012
Woods' internationally-known restaurant was a landmark within the Harlem community
(Baltimore, MD) – The NAACP mourns the loss of legendary restaurateur Sylvia Woods, 86, known internationally as the "Queen of Soul Food".
Woods' world-renowned Harlem establishment, Sylvia's, has drawn celebrities, politicians, tourists and locals alike to enjoy its famed soul food for more than 50 years.
"Sylvia's Restaurant is a cornerstone of the African American community in Harlem," said Benjamin Todd Jealous, NAACP President and CEO. "For five decades, the establishment has served as a place to mediate, collaborate and celebrate our struggle for equal rights."
Woods peacefully transitioned at her home on Thursday afternoon after a years-long battle with Alzheimer's Disease, according to a statement released by her family. Her death came hours before she was to receive an award from New York's Mayor Michael R. Bloomberg commemorating the 50th anniversary of Sylvia's Restaurant.
"Sylvia Woods a phenomenal woman and entrepreneur extraordinary," said New York State Conference President Hazel N. Dukes. "She will certainly be missed by our community."
In addition to her restaurant, Woods maintained a culinary legacy that included Sylvia's Catering Corp., banquet hall facilities and a nationwide line of grocer-distributed Sylvia's Food Products. She also authored two celebrated cookbooks – "Sylvia's Family Soul Food Cookbook: From Hemingway, South Carolina, To Harlem" and "Sylvia's Soul Food."
"Sylvia Woods was a phenomenal woman that contributed wonderful food and entertainment, to not only the Harlem community but countless audiences worldwide," said Randy Tucker, Vice President of the NAACP's Harlem Branch. "As a woman of color she set a great example of entrepreneurship. She will certainly be missed by our community.
A native of Hemingway, South Carolina, Woods moved to New York as a teenager to join her mother, who had gone there for work. Nearly two decades later, with help from her mother, who mortgaged the family farm, Woods bought Johnson's Luncheonette, where she was once employed, and renamed it Sylvia's. She maintained the landmark operation until her 80th birthday when she passed the torch to her children and grandchildren.
Founded in 1909, the NAACP is the nation's oldest and largest civil rights organization. Its members throughout the United States and the world are the premier advocates for civil rights in their communities, conducting voter mobilization and monitoring equal opportunity in the public and private sectors.


text: The Pearl of the Orient - and Malaysia's Northern Corridor From a backwater island, to a thriving British colony, to being dubbed the 'Silicone Valley of Asia', there is more to Penang than meets the eye - even to the casual visitorAn Introduction to PenangTouted as the "Pearl of the Orient", Penang is truly one of a kind, with its glorious past and promising future. Locals and foreigners alike have never failed to fall for its idyllic, serene beaches, and fast-developing state capital, Georgetown.Away from the state-of-the-art skyscrapers in the city are the stretches of pristine beaches. Truly, Penang is a mixture of industrial development and exotic heritage.Founded by Sir Francis Light in 1771, "Pulau Pinang" as it is known in Malay, is a turtle-shaped island of 292 square kilometres - including a strip of land called Seberang Prai on Peninsula Malaysia, about 48 kilometres wide. "Pulau" means "island" in Malay and "Pinang" means "betel nut".Prior to the arrival of the British, the island was owned by the Sultanate of Kedah. A decade later, the Sultan's heir, Abdullah, took the throne. He asked to have the island taken away for the then-equivalent of Straits Settlement Dollars $30,000 per year in rental.Francis Light established Penang as a British colony and entreport in 1786, although at that time, the British occupation of Penang was not legally ratified until five years later when 'gunboat diplomacy' forged a treaty in 1791. This treaty imposed on the Sultanate of Kedah a reduced annual rental of $6,000.The Evolution of PenangLight renamed Penang "Prince of Wales Island", with its administrative capital, Georgetown, named after King George III.After Light's death, the Pangkor Agreement in 1874 allowed Sir Frank Swettenham to be appointed the first British Resident-General of the Federation of Malay States. In 1885, the first railway line in (the then) Malaya started servicing the 8.5 miles, from Port Weld to Taiping in the state of Perak.From then on, Penang began to flourish and the industrious entrepreneurs from China who made it big - called "taokays" built themselves grand temples of wealth along what is today known as Millionaire's Row. In 1826, Penang, along with Malacca and Singapore, became part of the Straits Settlements under the British administration in India, before coming under direct British colonial rule in 1867.With the onset of World War II, the British temporarily abdicated Penang and the rest of Malaya, to the occupying Japanese armed forces. After the War ended, Penang became part of the Malayan Union in 1946, before becoming a state of the Federation of Malaya, two years later.Malaya subsequently gained independence in 1957, and changed its name to "Malaysia" in 1963. And with this transition, Penang lost is free-port status which was an invaluable legacy of the colonial era.The island was linked to the mainland by the Penang Bridge - Asia's longest bridge - in 1985. Today, Penang is a fast-paced, developing city with its industrial free trade zone (FTZ) earning it the honour of being the "Silicon Valley of the East". A world-class international airport in Bayan Lepas, on the southern part of the island, aptly seals Penang's future as a global investment - and property - hub.Places of Interest Most, if not all, visitors will immediately identify Penang as a famous tourism spot.Places of interest include Khoo Kongsi, Kapitan Keling Mosque, Sri Mariamman Temple, Fort Cornwallis and Wat Chaiya Mangkalaram, the Buddhist temple with one of the world's longest reclining statues of the Buddha. At nightfall, trendy restaurants, sidewalk cafes, "nasi kandar" stalls, discotheques, night markets, department stores and quaint pre-war shops together with a host of other places all combine to give the city its lively and vibrant character. The Khoo Kongsi is a clan house built by master craftsmen from China; featuring a magnificent hall embellished with intricate carvings and richly ornamented beams of the finest wood. This unique architectural heritage gives Georgetown its charming appeal and distinctive character.Sun worshippers and sea lovers will find Penang's divine beaches perfect for all types for activities - be it water sports, swimming or simply lounging around on the beach. Hugging the coastline are international resorts that offer full facilities for rest and recreation.Other attractions include Penang Hill, the Kek Lok Si Temple, Butterfly Farm, Botanical Gardens, Snake Temple and Penang Bird Park on the mainland. Those raring to get up close-and-personal with the sights and sounds of Penang may find the colourfully decorated trishaws an interesting way of doing so.To add some excitement into your trip, cross over to the mainland by the Penang Bridge, or experience travelling on the ferry - once the only link with the mainland. Take a scenic drive up densely forested hills to soak up the sights of the island. And to make your trip all the more memorable, stop by Balik Pulau on your way back, to taste its famous durians and nutmegs. Penang: An Economic OutlookThe economy of Penang is thriving with its growth in the electronics, semi-conductor and high-tech industries, in particular.In fact, Penang has the third largest economy among the Malaysian states, after Selangor and Johor. In 2000, manufacturing was the most important component of the Penang economy, contributing 45.9% of the State's Gross Domestic Product (GDP). High-tech electronics plants such as Dell, Intel, AMD, Altera, Motorola, Agilent, Hitachi, Osram, Plexus, Bosch and Seagate are all located within the Bayan Lepas Free Industrial Zone.Penang was declared a Multimedia Super Corridor Cyber City - the first outside of Cyberjaya - in January 2005, with the goal of making the state a high-tech industrial park. Tourism, finance and shipping are among the other important sectors of Penang's economy.The National Physical Plan of Malaysia envisages a Conurbation of Georgetown, which includes Georgetown and surrounding areas. The Conurbation of Georgetown is designated a Regional Growth Conurbation. The greater metropolitan area of Penang consists of highly urbanized Penang Island, Province Wellesley (Seberang Prai), Sungai Petani, Kulim and the surrounding areas. Under the 9th Malaysian Plan, this entire area is referred to as the Northern Corridor Economic Region (NCER). Investing in Penang PropertyInvesting in property is very rewarding especially when done in Penang, as property prices tend to appreciate over a relatively short period of time. Prime property locations in Penang include beachfront property in Batu Ferringhi, Tanjung Bungah and Tanjung Tokong, which are all located on the Northeast of the island. Along Batu Ferringhi are numerous large hotels, restaurants, transport rental services and souvenir stores. Adjacent vicinities include Teluk Bahang and Tanjung Bungah. Tanjung Bungah is another popular place for beachfront property. Many hotels in Tanjung Bungah offer rates to suit budget travellers. Indeed, the development of mid-class to high-end apartments and condominiums are rampant in Tanjung Bungah. It is an ideal residential spot for foreigners due to its proximity to the Dalat School and The Uplands International School of Penang. The Penang Branch Campus of Tunku Abdul Rahman College (TARC) is also situated here.Just minutes' drive away is Tanjung Tokong, where the sea-fronting, exclusive Seri Tanjung Pinang villas developed by E & O Property Development Bhd have just been launched. The group has launched about 500 units of landed residential properties, priced from about RM800,000 onwards. It is now getting ready to launch the new bungalows for the Seri Tanjung Pinang project at the end of 2008, priced from RM2.8 million.Pulau Tikus - located in Georgetown, central Penang - is also one of the upcoming prime property locations on the island. One of the luxury condominiums is the Silverton situated along Gurney Drive. This freehold property is priced from RM1 million. Lying towards the Southeast of the island is Batu Maung. Around 20 years ago, Batu Maung was only a small fishing village accessible only from Bayan Lepas. However, in the past few years, Batu Maung has been experiencing rapid development due to its proximity to the Bayan Lepas Free Trade Zone. In 1994, a new four-lane highway - known as the coastal highway - was opened, linking Batu Maung to Gelugor. This shortened the journey from Batu Maung to Penang Bridge to around 15 minutes, from almost an hour previously. In August 2006, Malaysian Government has announced that Penang's Second Bridge will be built from Batu Kawan, on the mainland, to Batu Maung, on the island. This infrastructure is expected to lend impetus for more development of property in that area. In fact, local developer Mah Sing's RM1.28 billion Southbay Penang project in Batu Maung registered some 1,500 interested buyers for its first phase - scheduled for launching in early 2008.Penang, towards the futureEconomists and the Malaysian Government alike foresee a growth in property development with the proposed Second Bridge Link, monorail, and Penang Outer Ring Road projects, to be implemented soon. Many foreigners, especially Japanese, Australian and British nationals, have invested in second homes on Penang island. In a recent survey, Penang was voted one of the best Asian cities to live in, by Asiaweek. It ranked 6th in 1998 and 9th in 2000. In 2007, Penang ranked as the 10th most liveable city in Asia according to a survey involving 255 cities in Asia by Employment Conditions Abroad Limited (ECA International). Some of the barometers by which these cities were gauged include weather, air quality, infrastructure, health services, housing, security and politics. Property prices in the south of Penang have increased by approximately 20%, compared to only a year ago. Generally speaking, Penang properties generate good investment value because of their location, concept, design and quality. Excerpt: "Investing in property is very rewarding especially when done in Penang, as property prices tend to appreciate over a relatively short period of time."

The Irrepressible Myth of Celotex: Reconsidering Summary Judgment Burdens Twenty Years after the Trilogy
Adam Steinman
University of Alabama - School of Law
August 13, 2010
Washington & Lee Law Review, Vol. 63, 2006
Twenty years ago, the Supreme Court decided a trilogy of cases on summary judgment. These cases have had a profound impact on federal litigation. Empirical data presented in this article demonstrate that federal courts have cited these three cases more than any Supreme Court decisions in history. Celotex Corp. v. Catrett is widely recognized as the most significant decision of the trilogy, both because it expanded the availability of summary judgment and because it remains the Court's most current instructions on how burdens are allocated between the party seeking and the party opposing summary judgment. However, Celotex failed to clarify many important aspects of summary judgment procedure, leading to competing myths within both the academy and the judiciary.
The prevailing myths of Celotex are based principally on scholars' and judges' own views about how summary judgment procedure ought to operate in the federal system. This article takes a more traditional approach that is long overdue in this area: treating Celotex as an object of interpretation rather than an empty vessel for achieving policy preferences. Using basic interpretive values - consistency with prior decisions, consistency with governing textual sources, and internal coherence - this article challenges the current myths and offers a fresh interpretation of Celotex that cogently resolves that case's many ambiguities. The resulting approach to summary judgment would provide a sensible middle ground between the two dominant views of Celotex.

I have updated Comicpress twice and both times my comics have disappeared on my page. This is very alarming for a webcomic creator. I understand this is pretty normal.
The fix is fairly easy - if you can find it. Since I don't update every time an update comes out, if would be great if this page addressed it. Gave people some sort of caution about updating.
"Once you update, go into Comicpress Manager and reset your comic category settings"... that sort of thing. I imagine some less savvy people give up or seriously panic. I know I did the first time it happened to me.
Other than that, tho, this theme is a lifesaver.

By CHRIS EBERHART
After the March 18 Tuckahoe election, the village Board of Trustees remains a 4-1 Republican majority with incumbent Democrat Stephen Quigley winning re-election and Republican Steven Alfasi taking the other open seat vacated by the outgoing Trustee Janette Hayes.
Hayes, a Republican, chose not to seek re-election.
Quigley, 61, beat out Alfasi, 48, by five votes—356 to 351—for top vote getter of the four candidates on the ballot. Coming in third and fourth, respectively, were Republican Melba Caliano, 60, an attorney with the New York State Education Department and Democrat Chris DiGiorgio, 47, an eye doctor and the chairman of the village's Democratic Party, with 324 votes and 287 votes, respectively.
Quigley and Alfasi will begin their two-year terms on April 1.
Alfasi, a private attorney with an office in Village Hall and a member of Tuckahoe's Zoning Board of Appeals for the past two years, said after his victory the win hasn't sunk in yet, but he's ready to get to work.
"The first thing is voting on the budget, which I'm confident the trustees will keep under the state-mandated tax cap," Alfasi said.
Although Alfasi has not been part of the budget discussions, he will vote on the final budget, which has to be completed by the end of May.
After the adoption of the budget, Alfasi said, "It's about taxes, but it's not all about taxes. Taxes is a pot of money, and it's about managing that pot of money with efficient spending. It encompasses
Quigley, an intellectual property attorney at a Manhattan-based law firm, will be
returning for his third two-year term as village trustee next month. He said this election "re-energized" him.
"This win was a nice reaffirmation that a majority of the voters think I'm doing a good job," Quigley said. "It re-energized me to push more initiatives, especially in the environmental area and real estate development in the business district. I want to revisit making Tuckahoe a climate-smart community [which would make the village eligible for grant money]."
Environmental initiatives were a hot topic during the candidates' March 9 debate.
Essentially, the Democrats—Quigley and DiGiorgio—said the village needs to do more for the environment while the Republicans—Alfasi and Caliano—said Tuckahoe was already environmentally conscious.
During the debate, Caliano took a shot at her Democratic opponents' environmental push saying, "There should be less concern for small issues like plastic bags," in reference to Quigley's proposed plastic bag ban in Tuckahoe retail stores in March 2013. "We're already environmentally conscious. And I've never seen my opponents at a Planning Board meeting asking for a second environmental test. I've always asked for that second test."
Quigley's bag ban proposal was defeated by a 2013 party line vote.
The Republicans will keep their supermajority on the Tuckahoe Board of Trustees, which means Quigley will have an uphill challenge in trying to convince the board to go along with future environmental initiatives.
Village trustees serve two-year terms with annual compensation of $5,000.

NORTH BEND, Wash. (AP) -- The Washington state man who was found dead of a self-inflicted gunshot wound in a mountain bunker Saturday spent eight years carving his hideout in the foothills of the Cascade Mountains.
Authorities had spent a week looking for 41-year-old Peter Keller after he allegedly shot and killed his wife and 18-year-old daughter and set the family's home on fire.
During a 22-hour standoff at Keller's bunker police teams pumped in tear gas, called him over bullhorns and finally set off explosives along the top of the bunker.
Police discovered Keller already dead. A handgun was next to his body.
Keller's family had described him as a gun enthusiast who had a "survivalist mentality."
A sheriff's sergeant says the bunker was fortified with at least 13 guns inside, propane tanks, a large gun scope, gas cans and binoculars. Police photos show stacks of ammunition in plastic bags on shelves.
In the hunt for Keller, it took a grueling seven hours to reach the hideout, during which some officers were treated intravenously for dehydration, and one broke his ankle.

Diffuse parenchymal lung diseases (DPLDs) comprise a heterogenous group of disorders. Clinical, physiologic, radiographic, and pathologic presentations of patients with these disorders are varied (an example is shown in the image below). However, a number of common features justify their inclusion in a single disease category.
View Image
Frontal chest radiograph demonstrating bilateral reticular and nodular interstitial infiltrates with upper zone predominance.
DPLD may be idiopathic, a classic illustration of which is idiopathic interstitial fibrosis (IPF), which is discussed in another article (see Pulmonary Fibrosis, Idiopathic). The underlying histopathology of IPF is usual interstitial pneumonitis (UIP). Other major histopathologic forms of idiopathic interstitial pneumonias include the following: desquamative interstitial pneumonia (DIP), respiratory bronchiolitis interstitial lung disease (RBILD), acute interstitial pneumonitis (AIP), also known as Hamman-Rich syndrome, nonspecific interstitial pneumonia (NSIP), cryptogenic organizing pneumonia (COP) (see Bronchiolitis Obliterans Organizing Pneumonia), and lymphocytic interstitial pneumonia (LIP) (see Lymphocytic Interstitial Pneumonia).
Some forms of DPLD are related to occupational, environmental, drug, and/or radiation exposure, as well as systemic illness such as collagen-vascular disease (see Collagen-Vascular Disease Associated With Interstitial Lung Disease). Another category of DPLDs includes granulomatous forms, such as sarcoidosis (see Sarcoidosis), and hypersensitivity pneumonia (HSP) (see Hypersensitivity Pneumonitis). Finally, a number of very rare forms of DPLDs exist, including pulmonary Langerhans cell histiocytosis (PLCH) (see Eosinophilic Granuloma (Histiocytosis X)), tuberous sclerosis, lymphangioleiomyomatosis (LAM) (see Lymphangioleiomyomatosis), and Hermansky-Pudlak syndrome.
Some of these disorders, for example, RBILD, DIP, and PLCH, are clearly associated with smoking. Some forms of DPLD, as noted above, may also be related to occupational, environmental, drug, radiation exposure, or systemic illness such as collagen-vascular disease. This article presents a broad overview, with an emphasis on those etiologies that result in pulmonary fibrosis not discussed elsewhere in this series.
A common pathophysiology has been postulated for these disorders. It is thought to begin with acute injury to the pulmonary parenchyma, leading to chronic interstitial inflammation, then to fibroblast activation and proliferation, and finally progressing to the common endpoint of pulmonary fibrosis and tissue destruction. Current research indicates that inflammation is less important in IPF, which appears to be primarily a disorder of fibroblast activation and proliferation in response to some as yet unknown trigger(s).
The DPLDs typically manifest with the insidious onset of respiratory symptomatology, although onset can be acute and rapidly progressive, as in COP or AIP.
Pathologically, all DPLDs manifest histologically with disease largely within the interstitial compartment of the lung. However, alveolar and airway architecture also may be disrupted to varying degrees. The histologic patterns of UIP, DIP, nonspecific interstitial pneumonitis (NSIP), HSP, LIP, COP, giant cell pneumonitis, and granulomatous pneumonitis are most common and are focused in the alveolar, lobular, and lobar septa, impacting alveoli, small airways, and pulmonary vasculature.
As a group, diffuse interstitial diseases of the lung are uncommon. Based on the Bernalillo County, NM, USA registry data published in 1994, the overall estimated incidence is approximately 30 cases per 100,000 persons per year[1] . Rates of interstitial lung disease are somewhat higher in men than in women, and the epidemiology is markedly affected by age and occupational exposures. Of patients referred to a pulmonary disease specialist, an estimated 10-15% have a DPLD.
Although little published data exist comparing worldwide prevalence, significant differences are apparent. The Bernalillo County study estimated a prevalence of 80.9 cases per 100,000 population in men and 67.2 cases per 100,000 population in women. In comparison, a Japanese study estimated a prevalence of 4.1 cases per 100,000 population; a study in the Czech Republic reported 7-12 cases per 100,000 population; and data from a Finnish registry indicated 16-18 cases per 100,000 population.
The natural history of diffuse interstitial lung diseases varies among different diagnostic entities and among individuals with the same diagnosis.
The clinical history offered by patients with a DPLD is variable and related to the underlying disease process. Many patients with DPLD, particularly IPF/UIP, may experience acute exacerbations of the disease with subsequent persistent decrement in lung function, which has become increasingly recognized.
Numerous causes/diagnoses are included among the DPLDs, many of which can be grouped as follows:
View Image

View Image
High-resolution chest CT scan of patient with bilateral reticular and nodular interstitial infiltrates with upper zone predominance.
The histopathology observed in diffuse interstitial diseases of the lung is varied. The histopathologic classification of idiopathic interstitial pneumonias were updated by Katzenstein and Myers[7] in 1998 to include the following 4 subgroups: UIP, AIP (diffuse alveolar damage), DIP/RBILD, and NSIP. Different histopathologic patterns may also be found in biopsy samples from different regions of the lung in these patients, particularly those with NSIP. Sometimes interstitial lung diseases with known etiologies may manifest one of the preceding histopathologic patterns. In addition, other pathologic patterns may be found. These may be consistent with COP, granulomatous lung disease, HSP, giant cell pneumonitis (hard-metal pneumoconiosis), eosinophilic pneumonia, and LIP (lymphoproliferative disorder).
Interpretation of histopathologic findings may be difficult, even in experienced hands, and disagreement may occur even among expert pathologists.[8] In 2005, a 52% rate of disagreement between local general pathologists and "expert" pathologists was documented in a retrospective analysis.[9]
Pulmonary function studies and the 6-minute walk study have demonstrated prognostic utility in IPF with histopathologic findings of UIP and NSIP. A diminished diffusion capacity (DLCO) on initial evaluation is a poor prognostic indicator, regardless of histologic type. Egan et al[10] have proposed a classification scheme of advanced versus limited disease based on a cutoff value of DLCO greater or less than 40%. Similarly, a trough saturation of less than 88% during a 6-minute walk study has been shown to confer a worse prognosis. Serial decrements in functional vital capacity and DLCO over time are also associated with increased mortality.
Medications are best used for specific diagnoses. However, corticosteroids, cytotoxic agents, and, more recently, antifibrotics, antioxidants, and other immunosuppressive agents have been used with varying success in some forms of DPLD.
In general, NSIP, DIP, and COP have been found to be more responsive to corticosteroids and immunosuppressive therapies. UIP is generally thought to be unresponsive to these modalities, and thus, additional research in the form of clinical trials evaluating potentially promising agents continues. RBILD responds to smoking cessation.
Clinical Context: Used as immunosuppressant in treatment of autoimmune disorders. By reversing increased capillary permeability and suppressing PMN activity, may decrease inflammation. Oral corticosteroid with relatively less mineralocorticoid activity.
Best prescribed in consultation with a pulmonary disease specialist.
Have anti-inflammatory properties and cause profound and varied metabolic effects. In addition, modify body's immune response to diverse stimuli.
Clinical Context: Chemically related to nitrogen mustards. As an alkylating agent, mechanism of action of active metabolites may involve cross-linking of DNA, which may interfere with growth of normal and neoplastic cells of immune system. Possibly a steroid-sparing medication.
Clinical Context: Inhibits mitosis and cellular metabolism by antagonizing purine metabolism and inhibiting synthesis of DNA, RNA, and proteins. These effects may decrease proliferation of immune cells and result in lower autoimmune activity. Possibly a steroid-sparing medication.
Used for some of their immunosuppressant properties.
Clinical Context: Decreases leukocyte motility and phagocytosis observed in inflammatory responses.
Immunosuppressive effects may inhibit cellular division and fibrosis.

Basically I have a 4GB SD Card and COD 4 and Goldeneye 007 are just under 4GB each (after scrubbed). However the WBFS Partition thing makes my USB 3.69 GB so I don't have enough space. Is there any way to reduce the ISO size or increase my SD Card size apart from buying a new SD card or burning on a disk?
Ok. Also if I have a USB HDD is their a way to not format everything on it as I have one but it has some very important files on it.
K, but then I can't play the games form the USB HDD if its not been fully formatted.
Your statement doesn't make sense. Are you (or do you have) two USB HDs? I was advising you one method if you had your old drive and the new replacement drive as to how this can be done. Your reply makes no sense. Perhaps you haven't secured a replacement as yet, hard to tell seeing as I failed Mindreader 101 in college.
No, I have a 4GB USB and a 500GB USB HDD and you said that you can clone the iso's onto my USB to my USB HDD. So basically I have to format the USB HDD to wbfs (cos i dont want to delete all the files on it)

Dear Ms. Ultrasound,
At my 20 week ultrasound the doctor told us that there were multiple cysts on the baby's left kidney with the largest cyst measuring 1.5 cm. She is sending us to a perinatologist to look into this further.
This is our first child and I am terrified. Other than the cysts, she said our baby is measuring 6 days ahead of schedule. I hope that is a good thing.
Please help me understand the cysts, how they came about, if they can be removed, what the prognosis is. We cannot get into the perinatologist until 24 weeks, I called to try to get on a waiting list and the doctor said it would be fine to wait until 24 weeks. Please help!
What you may be talking about is called Multicystic dysplastic kidney (MCDK).
This is the most common growth found on a fetal kidney. The condition has a two to one male predominance and usually is present in only one kidney. When the other kidney is normal, the prognosis is good, even if the kidney with the cysts is completely nonfunctional! As long as the amniotic fluid level is normal at least one of the kidneys is functioning well.
It sounds like the baby was fine except for the one kidney from the report you got from your doctor.This goes along with the good prognosis statistics.
I know how scary this kind of finding is on a Mommy to be, but I think things will be fine with your baby.
If you have any further questions after you have seen the perinatologist please let me know.
With regards,
-- Jane RDMS

What do you get when five married couples throw their best friend, Robert, a handsome bachelor who resists settling down, a surprise 35th birthday? The answer is a hilarious and touching evening of "Company," the Vail Valley Theatre Company's (VVTC) upcoming production of the musical comedy by Stephen Sondheim.You may not recognize our leading man, played by Vail Native, Lance Schober, without his familiar VVTC "Rocky Horror" costume. Excited to be out of the seven-inch heels, he says of this show, "I like the idea of telling a good story, being able to move people through laughter, excitement or pure horror ('Rocky Horror') ... sorry I couldn't resist!" "I've been married to my wonderful and patient wife, Lisa, for 13 years," he said. "My connection to playing the role of Robert is a true love of my best friends who I would do anything in the world for. I am also enjoying watching each and every one of our local actors bring their talents to the surface, making this show a very real experience for the audience." The girlfriendsMeet Marta, a fiery New Yorker; April, a flighty flight attendant and Cathy, a down-to-earth girl who would have married Robert, if he'd only asked. During a dynamite musical moment of the show, this trio confess to the audience that Robert "Could Drive a Person Crazy" with his carefree bachelor ways. Marta is played by local Manor Vail Sales and Marketing Director Nicole Whitaker, who has been acting since she was six years old and volunteering her time with VVTC since 2008. "I am passionate about showcasing the incredible talent in this valley and giving back to the community through our non-profit theatre company," she said.Mallory Parks, who works as the sales and catering coordinator at The Four Seasons in Vail, makes her debut performance with VVTC as the enchanting flight attendant, April."I'm just thrilled to be performing with this company," she said, "and I hope my enthusiasm will inspire others to join us on stage in the future."The simple beauty of Cathy is being brought to life by local land use planner and "Hardscrabble Bluegrass Band" singer, Jena Skinner, who has been performing with VVTC since 2006. "Just watching all of these amazing people bring this show to life ... it's just wonderful," she said.'Unguarded Conversations'Meet the last of our married couples, "Joanne and Larry." Joanne, played by VVTC veteran, Charis Patterson, brings a dark dose of reality to Robert's bachelor-centric world. Her third husband, Larry, played by longtime local, John Tedstrom, is an all-around nice guy who adores his wife, despite her sarcasm and brutal honesty."Joanne is not a likeable person a lot of the time, which makes her a challenging role to play. I can however relate to having extremely unguarded conversations when I've had too much to drink," said Patterson, a performer since high school.Tedstrom got into theater years ago when his daughter, Anna, asked him to audition for "Peter Pan.""I got hooked on Captain Hook and have done shows every year since. Being on stage is 50 percent pure exhilaration and 50 percent sheer terror - and I'm addicted."Both actors are married to their "first" spouses in real life. Patterson to her husband of 11 years, Mark, with their two beautiful daughters, ages three and five, and Tedstrom to his wife of 25 years, Carri, with their three children; Charlie, 22; Connor, 20; and Anna, a senior at Battle Mountain. It's inspiring to see these local families support the actors in their households who volunteer their precious free time to bring live theater to the valley.Stay tuned to next week's column where you'll meet the incredible crew of "Company." From the set and lights to the choreography, music and direction, the Vail Valley is quite lucky to have these local talents.

Beware of structural instability
Never assume that water-damaged structures or the ground are stable. Buildings that have been submerged or have withstood rushing flood waters may have suffered structural damage and could be dangerous.
- Don't work in or around any flood-damaged building until it has been examined and certified as safe for work by a registered professional engineer or architect.
- Assume all stairs, floors, and roofs are unsafe until they are inspected.
- Leave immediately if shifting or unusual noises are heard if you are in an area as they may signal a possible collapse.
Avoid hazardous materials
Flood waters can dislodge tanks, drums, pipes, and equipment which may contain hazardous materials such as pesticides or propane.
- Do not attempt to move unidentified dislodged containers without first contacting the local fire department or hazardous materials team.
- If working in potentially contaminated areas, avoid skin contact or inhalation of vapors by wearing appropriate protective clothing and respirators.
- Frequently and thoroughly wash areas of skin that may have been exposed to pesticides and other hazardous chemicals.
- Contact the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health.
Be prepared for fires
Fire can pose a major threat to an already badly damaged flood area. Fire protection systems may be inoperative, the fire department response may be hampered and water supplies may be inoperable.
Make sure you have at least one working fire extinguisher in your home. Natural gas lines may be disrupted; leave any area that has an unusual smell, notify the gas and fire departments, and do not use power equipment in the area as any sparks could cause fire or explosions if a gas line is broken and leaking.
Use care operating a home powered generator, and always follow the manufacturer's instructions including operating the generator outdoors.

Kona District | Bench Warrants 12-29-13
The Hawaii County Police Department is asking for the public's help in processing court bench warrants.
Whenever an individual ignores a court summons or traffic citation, the court issues a bench warrant for that person's arrest.
Although most people respond to bench warrants, some do not. Over time, the failure to respond has created a sizable backlog of bench warrants.
Although police can go out into the community and make warrant arrests in public areas or at places of employment, or in front of family or friends, the Hawaii County Police Department would prefer to have residents come to the police station and take care of their bench warrants.
Because a driver may have forgotten about the citation or may not even be aware a bench warrant has been issued for his arrest, the police department will submit to the news media each week a list of names of those sought on outstanding warrants.
The police ask anyone who recognizes a friend or family member on the list to call that person and have him or her call or stop at any police station. To allow speedy processing, if a person wanted on an outstanding warrant calls ahead, police will explain the bail amount on the warrant. For information on Kona warrants call 326-4646, ext. 253.
A name appearing on the warrant list does not mean a person is guilty of a crime, only that a judge has issued a bench warrant for failing to appear in court. It is also possible that a warrant on this list has already been served or may have been recalled. The list is accurate at the time it is compiled by police and the courts.

Why don't teachers give their students evaluations on their class at the end of the year?
Why do teachers complain about a kid after they tell them that their class is boring?
Why do teachers repeatedly complain that kids are getting lazy and apathetic?
Why are teachers not tapped into how kids really feel about their class?
Last year I listened to a group of kids get interviewed about their school experience. As the kids reflected on their school experience and I just cringed. How did so many teachers not realize that the kids felt like they were just wasting their time?
In the movie the Matrix, Morpheus offers Nemo two pills. One is red, one is blue. If Nemo takes the red pill, he will see the truth. If he takes the blue pill, he can believe whatever he wants too.
Garth Holman recently introduced me to a new blog written by Cameron Godfrey.
Her last post is written to teachers: "I can't tell you how to teach, but I can tell you what I think from a student's perspective." She includes many good reminders to teachers in her post. I won't include them here…click on the previous hyperlink. As a matter of fact…stop reading teacher blogs today and just scroll through her posts to get a perspective on school through the eyes of a pupil. You will not be wasting your time.
When you are done with her posts, check out her twitter home page.
I love the wit and boldness of her bio line. "…I'm here to leave a legacy."
What if we were all so bold in our teaching?
As I write this my daughter is researching and preparing for a presentation that she initiated at her school. She is upset that the school is starting to hand out tickets for "good behavior" and using other PBIS initiatives. She wants it to end. She has been reading everything from Alfie Kohn to a book on public speaking. Cameron states in her last post "If I set my mind to it, I could search and dive into topics that no teacher has ever taught me, WITHOUT waking up at six in the morning and lugging my book bag onto a crowded bus to school." My daughter is getting the same education right now in her room glued to an ipad.
The kids are taking the red pills, maybe we should too…

FDA Study Shows Statins Don't Increase Risk of ALS
Give millions of people a drug, and some of them are going to come down with rare diseases. Of course, if you follow millions of people who aren't taking any drugs, some of them are going to come down with rare diseases, too. So it can be tough to tell whether a drug slightly increases the risk of trouble.
That's been an issue for statins, the wildly popular class of cholesterol drugs that includes Pfizer's Lipitor, Merck's Zocor and AstraZeneca's Crestor. Sporadic reports had come in of patients developing ALS, also known as Lou Gehrig's disease, while taking statins. As we noted last year, at least one prominent researcher thought there might be a connection there.
Indeed, the reports were substantive enough to compel the FDA to look into the issue.
The agency collected data from 41 clinical trials in which patients were randomly assigned to receive either a statin or a placebo. Overall, they found that patients who took statins were not more likely than those who took placebos to develop ALS. The full findings were published yesterday in the journal Pharmacoepidemiology and Drug Safety.
Still, the study may not be the final word. In a statement yesterday, the FDA noted that data from a Stanford study on statins and ALS should be available in six to nine months.

Getting out of a dangerous situation in the quickest, safest, way possible is the goal.
"This is training for us and the Jackson guys to save yourself if you get into a mayday situation," Lt. Jim Warner of the Summit Township Fire Department said.
It's called Rapid Intervention Training - or RIT- and for the past three days, firefighters from Jackson and Summit Township have been simulating not the best case scenarios, but the worst.
"If this room would become engulfed in flames, we're going to dive out this window, or make a hole in the wall and go into another room," Lt. Warner said.
The media was invited to join in Wednesday, so I was strapped with the 40 pounds or so of gear.
"You're going to sit down with your back to the wall," Lt. Warner told me.
In one scenario, we were getting out of burning room by crashing through a wall then slipping through studs.
"Crawl on your hands and knees, keep crawling," Lt. Warner said.
In another one, we had to find our way through tangled wires following a collapsed ceiling.
We crawled through small spaces, and climbed up walls to the second floor. Which I can tell you, is really, really tiring.
But by far my hardest task, and subsequently the one with my largest audience, was sliding down a ladder from the second floor... head first.
There was a sense of accomplishment for me at the end of the final task, but for the firefighters, this training is invaluable because these last-ditch efforts could one day save a life.
"If this actually happens. "Lt. Warner said, "you will know what to do, and calm yourself in an emergency situation."
The house on Losey Avenue in Jackson is owned by Miller Truck and Storage. It was slated to be demolished Thursday anyway, so the company donated it to the firefighters for training.

LONDON: A new James Bond novel is published on Wednesday, the 100th anniversary of the birth of his creator, Ian Fleming, but as befits the British fictional superspy, the plot is being kept top secret. 'Devil May Care' was penned by the award-winning British novelist Sebastian Faulks at the request of the late author's family.
Bond's 15th adventure in print, written in the style of Fleming, is being kept a closely guarded secret, although its publisher said it is a return to the original Bond, after so many adaptations of the character on film. So far, all that is known is that the adventure takes place in 1967, during the Cold War, and takes '007, licensed to kill' to Paris, London and the Middle East. "The new novel is in the spirit of the original and very funny," said Faulks, whose favourite screen Bond was Sean Connery.

Passive / Active Avoidance Box: PACS-30
When configured for active avoidance, PACS-30 presents a user-programmed sequence of stimuli to the subject. In response, the subject must relocate to the adjoining compartment within a preset time in order to avert the presentation of a mild shock. Controlling software coordinates stimulus presentation and behavioral responses in up to 30 avoidance cages. Latency from stimuli onset to transfer is recorded to a data file.
When configured for passive avoidance, each PACS-30 avoidance cage is equipped with an automated door that prevents inter-compartment transfers. A similar regime of stimulus presentation is sequenced during which the animal is offered the freedom to transfer to the adjoining compartment. Failure to transfer indicates success in the establishment of passive behavior. An animal that fails may be presented with a mild punishment.
The controlling software also incorporates features that allow the establishment of parameter files. A parameter file contains all controlling aspects of stimuli presentation (start times, durations and intensity, etc.) easing the set-up of subsequent tests that will follow a common testing protocol. PACS-30 allows independent control of up to 30 avoidance cages. Advanced features include the ability to delay the trial until after a preset amount of exploration time has lapsed and punishment for inter-trial transfers.

I love Metro Pop Magazine
Metro Pop Magazine was a bit of a mystery to me – I went to Chapters with the intention of finding another copy of Lula Magazine (which, since I've reported, has never surfaced on a bookshelf again for me), but came out with a copy of Z!nk Magazine and Metro Pop, totalling about $12.50 altogether.
My main motivator for buying Metro Pop was that it was sealed with a mysterious gift contained inside the pages. From my endless efforts to tilt and see what it was inside, I determined it was either a) A Swim Cap or b) Something inflatable because it looked like it had a valve.
And what was it?
Why, a friendly inflatable shoe from Onitsuka Tiger and TokiDoki of course! What an incredible promotion – I'll forever keep my inflatable shoe. And I got so distracted, I haven't even actually read the magazine (whoops).
> images are from..me! even the handwriting, yikes.

A Guide to Organic Chemistry Mechanisms is a new reaction mechanism workbook designed to accompany a standard organic chemistry textbook. This book uses example based teaching. It is self-guiding, you can learn reaction mechanisms without additional help. The book presents reaction mechanisms at three levels of difficulty: basic, intermediate, and advanced. You complete the missing information. In Part A, the easiest, the (easy to follow) curved arrows are missing. In Part B, the same problem is repeated with every other intermediate or product missing. In Part C, the problems are written in textbook fashion, and the same number of reaction arrows have been retained. Thus, you are guided from learning the logic of a reaction to writing a complete mechanism. Once you have mastered a mechanism, you should be able to solve similar problems in your textbook. Part D gives completed mechanisms. The book uses our ability to recognize and learn patterns. Therefore, an emphasis has been placed upon teaching the patterns of reactions. It is those patterns that are used to solve new problems. The book helped us increase our class averages on the American Chemical Society's Standard Examination in Organic Chemistry by up to twenty percentile points.

Unless you live in France, you probably haven't heard of electric car-maker Lumeneo or their Smera city car that debuted in production form at the Geneva show earlier this year. They're working to change that, though, with a new, larger concept debuting in Paris.
The Smera, as you may or may not know, is a tandem two-seater that leans into curves much like Nissan's Land Glider concept. Like the Nissan, the Smera is battery powered with a range of about 90 miles. Power comes from a 10 kWh battery pack and drives a 42-horsepower/30 kW electric motor that can propel the vehicle to a top speed of about 80 mph, hitting 60 mph in eight seconds flat. It's scheduled to go on-sale in Paris later this year before expanding into other major European cities where its tiny footprint will be most advantageous. Pricing will reportedly begin around 29,500 euro before any government incentives.
The Neoma concept appears to be, for all intents and purposes, a widened Smera. Making the vehicle half again as large has opened up space for four passengers while keeping the Smera's short 98-inch length and 59-inch height. Even at 63 inches wide, the Neoma is by no means a large car, but by locating the battery under the front seats, Lumeneo says there's plenty of space inside for four passengers, provided they don't bring any cargo with them. Being that the Neoma appears to be a double-wide Smera, we expect the technical specifications will be similar as well, but the company hasn't confirmed them yet. Pricing is also unknown at this point.

A Federal Register notice published by the US Treasury Department this summer has detailed the government's intention to implement an Internet Payment Platform by the end of this month. This latest release comes almost exactly a year after the US government signaled its intention to implement an e-Invoicing solution to reduce costs and waste across its departments.
With the platform going live this month, all new payment requests for financial year 2013 will be processed electronically. The new centralised, web-based system promises to execute payment requests securely and more cost effectively than current paper-based systems. The e-Invoicing system will also help automate the internal workflows of the Treasury, with routing and approvals actioned automatically based upon various specified criteria.

Sestina Theme of Transformation
The turn of the season certainly signals change in "Sestina," as it does just about everywhere else. The weather's changing, the temperature's dropping, and especially through the lens of the grandmother, we get the feeling that some sort of bad mojo is coming down the pike. With all the mentions of the equinox and the almanac, we can also assume there is something in the cosmos that has predicted the change that's about to come, and it ain't necessarily gonna be pretty.
Questions About Transformation
- What changes do you think are in store for the grandmother and the child? Are they good or bad?
- Why is September a good month for a poem that wants to illustrate change?
- What do the equinox and the almanac have to do with change? Think about the "foretold by the almanac" line. What could the almanac have to do with change?
Chew on This
The change happened before the kitchen scene takes place, and that's why the grandmother is sad. But hey, things can't get any worse, right?
The change will be good. You can tell by the laughter in the first stanza.
