Tips for Managing Bribery and Corruption Risks
Operations in emerging markets are particularly liable.!--h2>
Companies working in emerging markets are facing heightened scrutiny of their operations in many jurisdictions. Each firm's approach varies based on its experience in the market and with enforcement actions. There are common considerations, however, that are important for all life science companies wrestling with bribery and corruption risks.
Heed Local Laws
While legislations from the Foreign Corrupt Practices and Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development are good baselines, understanding laws of the countries in which the company's products are sold is key. Strong local antibribery and corruption laws may impact a firm's policies and demand that new, locally focused policies be created. More relaxed local laws or the absence of such laws may suggest a different attitude by local operations toward transactions with government officials.
Thus analyzing local laws may require expertise in the area of criminal law and applicable penalties as well as recent cases related to bribery and corruption. Certain countries have enacted legislation specific to the life science industry, for example, regulating payments to healthcare providers (HCPs) and marketing expenditures. This type of legislation may not be harmonized across the industry, potentially resulting in different regulations for pharmaceuticals, biotechnology, medical equipment, and medical devices. Therefore, companies may need to consider engaging specialized counsel.
Company-wide compliance principles should be the foundation of general policies and behavior but should allow for local variation with documented approval from legal, compliance, and other parties. Anticorruption policies, in particular, should not be developed in isolation and then pushed down to every location in which the company's products are sold. These policies should be flexible enough to accommodate stringent local requirements but developed with consideration for a company-wide culture, business model, sales prospects, customer base, sales regulations, and code of conduct (to the extent necessary to address the primary legal requirements).
Don't Forget Third Parties
Life science companies may contract with a variety of third parties beyond distribution and sales intermediaries, such as travel agents, event planners, or consultants. Since third parties operate on a company's behalf, they can create liability for the firm. As a result, it is important for company leaders to have a clear view of where and why third parties are used, who these contractors are, and what compliance and auditing provisions are included in their contracts. This requires that the firm obtains information about third-party contracts from the local markets and understands competitors' activities, their use of third-parties, the business environment, and potential pressures in the market.
Companies must also perform due diligence for each third party to assess:
These procedures are also applicable when performing due diligence for acquisitions. In addition to general compliance risks, third parties could present issues that result in assumption of liability by the acquiring entity and the corresponding impact on the transaction price.
Effective Training Goes a Long Way
Most life science companies have developed training regarding their policies or codes of conduct. Findings from compliance assessments often indicate, however, that the policies and the spirit in which they were created are not understood by individuals in local markets. To increase the effectiveness of training, efforts should be made to ensure that the training:
Follow-up training should be offered periodically, especially when there are changes to policies or local regulations and when audits or compliance assessments indicate significant compliance deficiencies.
Training should be extended not only to sales professionals but also members of management who interact with local government officials for business permits or other issues. Finance and accounting professionals responsible for recording transactions also should receive training. Additionally, it may be necessary to develop or present training to third parties, so they understand their obligations when working on behalf of the company.
Don't Be Afraid to Revise Policies
The best policies on paper may not translate into effective controls in the field, particularly in emerging markets where a full complement of personnel and a robust control structure may not yet exist. Using a combination of risk-assessment tools like Transparency International's Corruption Perception Index, internal audit findings, hotline calls, and other inputs, companies should select both high-risk and a number of other operations at random to assess effectiveness of the programs. This may include, for example, reviewing transaction documentation, understanding the nature and extent of employee or third-party interactions with HCPs, reviewing the resolution of previously raised compliance or audit issues, and meeting with employees or third parties to obtain their perceptions and understanding of the policies and training.
Specialized software may be useful for more frequent transaction monitoring to identify unusual trends or transactions that may warrant follow-up by compliance or internal audit. Assessments and transaction monitoring may result in policy changes to make them more realistic and responsive to the needs of individuals interacting with HCPs and other foreign government officials on a frequent basis.
Plan for the Worst
While one of the goals of an effective compliance program is to minimize the likelihood of investigations, regulatory inquiries, or other complaints that can increase financial or reputation risk, dealing with such matters is unavoidable. In preparation, companies should have a clearly defined incident response protocol that includes means for soliciting, receiving, and triaging notices or complaints. A core multidisciplinary investigation team that may include members of legal, compliance, internal audit, human resources, and IT should also be ready.
Outside counsel and forensic consultants may be necessary in particular circumstances. Potential compliance issues will need to be investigated, and findings reported to appropriate compliance, financial, legal, governance, board, or other relevant groups. The response plan should be reviewed at least semiannually to ensure contacts are up to date and to refine the plan based on lessons learned from previous investigations or other response efforts.

A patient with a history of malignant degeneration in an area of regional enteritis required a right colectomy for partial obstruction and exacerbation of infection ten years after the onset of regional ileitis, which was treated medically in the interim. Carcinoma of the ileum was found and the involved segment was studied pathologically. The patient developed metastases and died one year later.
Twenty-six cases of carcinoma in regional ileitis have been reported in the literature since 1956. Five-year survivals of 3.7% and an average survival of 6.56 months reveal an extremely poor prognosis. Only 14% of the conditions were diagnosed preoperatively or intraoperatively. More than 80% of the diagnoses were made postoperatively or at autopsy. It is concluded that any rapid deterioration or anemia in a patient with satisfactory, controlled regional enteritis should arouse suspicion of a malignant neoplasm.

(c)any special features of any churchyard or burial ground annexed to any of them;
(d)any information or advice which the Council thinks appropriate to give concerning possible architectural or structural changes in each church mentioned in the notice in the event of its closure for regular public worship or, in the event that the church is not so closed, concerning any such changes which would facilitate its use for purposes which are consistent with use for regular public worship;
and shall send a copy of that report to the Commissioners, the diocesan board of finance and the committee.
(8)When the committee has decided to make recommendations, it shall formulate them in draft proposals and submit them to the bishop, and the bishop may, with the agreement of the committee, make such amendments to the draft proposals as appear to him desirable.
(9)The committee shall annex to the draft proposals formulated by it a statement of the views of the interested parties and a copy of the report prepared by the Council under subsection (7).
(10)In this section "incumbent", in relation to a benefice in respect of which a suspension period has been declared and is for the time being in force, means the priest in charge thereof.
(1)If the bishop approves either with or without amendments draft proposals submitted to him under section 21(8) he shall submit the proposals as approved to the Commissioners and inform the mission and pastoral committee that he has done so.
(2)The mission and pastoral committee shall send a copy of the proposals as approved by the bishop to every interested party with a notice informing him or her that if the Commissioners prepare a draft scheme to give effect to the proposals he or she will be given an opportunity of making representations with respect thereto.
(1)The Commissioners shall consider any proposals submitted to them under section 22(1) and the bishop, in consultation with the mission and pastoral committee, shall consider any comments made by the Commissioners with respect to any of the proposals.

(4)The Commissioners shall prepare a draft scheme to give effect to the proposals, with any amendments made under subsection (3): Provided that—
(i)the Commissioners may, with the agreement of the bishop, given after consultation with the mission and pastoral committee, decide to proceed with some but not all of the proposals, and in that case this subsection shall apply as if they were the only proposals;
(ii)if, as a result of the Commissioners' decision under proviso (i), the proposals no longer contain a declaration of closure for regular public worship, the Commissioners shall refer the proposals to the mission and pastoral committee and the committee shall proceed as if the proposals related to a draft pastoral scheme which does not contain such a declaration or a draft order, as the case may be.
(1)The Commissioners shall serve a copy of any draft scheme prepared under section 23 on each of the interested parties together with a notice stating that written representations with respect thereto may be made to the Commissioners not later than a date specified in the notice, being a date not less than twenty-eight days after the service of the notice.

(b)publish in one or more newspapers circulating in the locality affected by the scheme a notice stating the objects of the draft scheme and naming a place or places within the locality where a copy thereof may be inspected, and stating that written representations with respect to the draft scheme may be made to the Commissioners not later than a date specified in the notice, being a date not less than twenty-eight days after the first publication of the notice in such a newspaper.
(3)The Commissioners shall, in the case of every draft scheme, send copies of such a notice as is mentioned in subsection (2), but specifying a date not less than twenty-eight days after the sending of the notice, to the secretary of the parochial church council of every parish affected by the draft scheme, and require him or her to affix a copy on or near the principal door of every church in the parish and every building licensed by the bishop for public worship in the parish (including any building referred to in section 80(13) or (14)).
(4)The Commissioners shall consider any written representations duly made with respect to any draft scheme and may, if they think fit, afford an opportunity to any person, whether he has made written representations or not, to make oral representations with respect to the draft scheme.
(5)The Commissioners may, before or after the end of the period within which written representations may be made under this section, extend that period, and any representations made within the period so extended shall be deemed to be duly made.
(1)The Commissioners—
(a)at the request of the bishop made after consultation with the mission and pastoral committee, or
(b)as a result of any representations,
may amend any draft scheme prepared by them under this Part, but any amendments made as a result of any representations shall only be made with the agreement of the bishop given after consultation with the committee.

GAZA STRIP - In response to Palestinian rocket fired on southern Israel Saturday night, the Israel Air Force targeted two terrorist sites in southern Gaza, the IDF Spokesperson's Office announced.
Residents of several communities near where the rocket exploded headed for shelter when the Color Red warning siren sounded.
The rocket landed in an open area in the Hof Ashkelon (Beach) Regional Council, with no personal injury or property damage.
"The IDF will not tolerate any attempt to harm the citizens of the State of Israel and will continue to operate against those who use terror.
"The IDF holds Hamas solely responsible for maintaining peace and quiet in the Gaza Strip," the spokesperson's statement read.
Palestinians in the Gaza Strip have fired 50 rockets at southern Israeli communities in the past four months.
Since the IDF's three-week military incursion into Gaza, which ended in January 2009, Palestinians have fired more than 330 rockets and mortar shells at Israel - much fewer than before Operation Cast Lead.

UNISDR, Gulf States Cooperation Council Host DRR Workshop
18 January 2013: The UN Office for Disaster Reduction (UNISDR) and the Cooperation Council for the Arab Gulf States (GCC) co-hosted a regional workshop on disaster risk reduction (DRR), which heard calls for stronger commitments in the Gulf region towards the development of a DRR strategy.
At the workshop, titled "Reducing and managing disaster risk and implementing the Hyogo For Action (HFA)," which took place from 13-16 January 2013, in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, GCC Secretary-General Abdul-Latif bin Rashid Al Zayani listed five targets for a strategy for DRR in the region, namely: protecting the security and stability of GCC countries; maintaining sustainable economic growth; achieving human development; increasing disaster response capacity; and enhancing regional and international cooperation.
Amjad Abbashar, Head of UNISDR's Regional Office for Arab States, indicated UNISDR's willingness to assist the GCC in its reporting on the Hyogo Framework for Action and engage Gulf States in the ongoing consultations for a new framework in 2015.
Abdel Aziz Hamza, Director of the GCC Disaster Management Center, stressed the need to raise awareness of DRR in the Gulf region, strengthen capacities in DRR, and promote the use and transfer of technologies to address disasters.
The workshop, which brought together 50 participants from Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates (UAE), also was attended by experts from various national and regional agencies, as well as the UN Institute for Training and Research (UNITAR).
According to UNISDR, the Gulf countries are particularly vulnerable to the impacts of climate change, including sea level rise, sand storms, storm surges, flash floods and cyclones. [UNISDR Press Release] [GCC Website]

A 70-voice choir and four of Amarillo's best-known soloists will present the Christmas portion of Handel's "Messiah" on Dec. 5 at St. Paul United Methodist Church. St. Paul has also announced its advent schedule for the month of December.
The church's Sanctuary Choir will be joined by vocalists from the community for the 8:30 and 10:50 a.m. services on Dec. 5 at the church at 4317 W. Interstate 40.
The choir will perform five of the most-beloved choruses from "Messiah:" "And the Glory of the Lord," "O Thou That Tellest Good Tidings to Zion," "For Unto Us a Child is Born," "Glory to God" and "Hallelujah."
Soloists for the event are soprano Brenda Christophersen, alto Lisa Hancock, tenor Joe Bolin and bass Steven Weber.
"I hope this event can continue to be an important part of the annual holiday celebrations of our city," said the Rev. John F. McClean, the church's senior pastor. "This can be a highly moving and meaningful spiritual event as well as a very beautiful musical experience."
The public is invited to hear the presentations, which will be performed at both worship services.
Church members will also meet at 5 p.m. Dec. 5 to decorate the classrooms for Christmas and at 6 p.m. to decorate the sanctuary. Refreshments in the fellowship hall will follow the service in the sanctuary, which is known as "Hanging of the Greens."
At both Sunday services Dec. 12, church members will help the less fortunate by placing offerings in the manger and bringing gifts to be distributed by Wesley Community Center. Cash gifts will be donated to charitable organizations. Also on Dec. 12, the children's choirs will present "Once Upon a Holy Night"between services at 10 a.m.
St. Paul will also present Advent services at 8:30 and 10:50 a.m. Dec. 19, and Christmas Eve services are planned for 3 p.m., 6 p.m. and 11 p.m. The 6 p.m. service will be preceded by a 5:50 p.m. harp and bells concert.

"His breakup brought all these rumors and stories and it is not true," says John Smith, the associate athletic director at Romo's alma mater, Eastern Illinois University.
Smith admits that Romo and Natalie met up for lunch in Dallas last week, but says his entire family – including his wife and three daughters – have "always been friends" with Romo since he was in college.
"Natalie feels so bad," adds her father. "Just being friends with Tony has disrupted everyone [from] talking about Tony and football and are instead talking about Tony and all of this."
The Dallas Cowboys quarterback is set to report to pre-season training camping Wednesday. "What is funny about all of this is that if Tony hadn't broken up with Jessica, nothing would ever have been written about him having lunch with Natalie," adds Smith.
Simpson Steps OutSimpson, meanwhile, has started hitting the town in Los Angeles after keeping a low profile for the first couple of weeks after her split from Romo.
Simpson, 29, joined a large group of friends and family – including her parents Joe and Tina who have been Simpson's main support system since the split – at Katana's Red Sun BBQ on July 26 for a birthday celebration. "They were all very friendly," says an onlooker, who saw the party digging into shrimp and kobe steak skewers on the restaurant patio.
The next day, the singer arrived at West Hollywood's House of Pascal Mouawad with her mom for a CD single release party for Candy Shop by An-Ya, an artist on her dad's new music label.
"She was in high spirits, joking, laughing, meeting people," says a source. "You wouldn't even know she was upset about a breakup."

PONTIAC, Mich. (AP) - A man who killed a gay acquaintance after the victim revealed a crush on him during a TV taping of a talk show went to trial for the second time Thursday.
The defense lawyer for Jonathan Schmitz said the gay man, Scott Amedure, was to blame because he pursued his client to the point that Schmitz "lost it" three days after the taping of "The Jenny Jones Show."
"What happens is that Scott Amedure lights a fuse, and every time that fuse starts to flicker out, Scott Amedure re-lights it," Jerome Sabbota said in his opening statement.
Schmitz was convicted of second-degree murder in 1996 and sentenced to 25 to 50 years in prison. But an appeals court overturned the verdict, saying the judge was wrong to bar defense lawyers from removing a juror before the trial began.
During the first trial, Schmitz was charged with first-degree murder, allowing him to claim he was mentally ill at the time of the shooting. But in this trial he is charged with second-degree murder, and under Michigan law, he is not permitted to use a mental illness defense.
Prosecutors contend Schmitz calmly bought ammunition and a shotgun before shooting the defenseless Amedure twice in his home in March 1995.
The crime was "the epitome of senseless violence and destruction, the cold-blooded and unwarranted obliteration of human life," Oakland County Assistant Prosecutor Donna Pendergast told jurors Thursday.
Schmitz and Amedure flew to Chicago for the taping of a "Jenny Jones" segment about secret same-sex crushes on March 6, 1995. Amedure revealed his crush on Schmitz to the studio audience during the show, which was taped but never aired.

Politics in the Medical Schools
Ever since 1918, medical students of Argentina have been enthusiastic about reforms in medical education. The reformers do not approve of the new regulations in the schools. Whenever any of the supportersof the so-called universitary reform are questioned as to its purpose, the answer differs in each case. Theoretically the following are the principal aims: (1) to give the student body certain rights in the management of the schools; (2) to develop scientific research and to intensify practical teaching; (3) to give the students a broader understanding of life in preference to professional knowledge; (4) to help free the oppressed and to carry on the social redemption of humanity; (5) to give the opportunity to teach to all of those properly fitted, and (6) to provide for professorships of six years without right of succeeding to the same position.

Mitt Romney
Highlights from Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney's 2012 campaign trail.
Highlights from Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney's 2012 campaign trail.
Al: To all that are voting for Hillary: you're actually voting for the destruction of America, illegals, thugs & terrorist, your rights & guns taken away, flag burnings, sharia law, more killing babies, more American families getting killed. You vote for evil and you care nothing for yourself or your family;you are someone that doesn't care for America or her people that live here - open your eyes to the evil. Democrats are using people to get votes by telling everyone they are victims when people can rise up and make something of themselves. This is the most important election of our lives. We really are at a pivitol moment in our history. Three or four Supreme Court justices will be appointed by the next president. The second amendment will be totally gutted, and will exist in name only if Clinton gets elected. She'll continue Obama's horrid legacy of disrespecting our allies, pandering to our enemies, opening our borders, downsizing our military, throwing our police under the bus, dividing us along both racial & socioeconomic lines, and she'll add gender lines to that division. She'll continue to suppress businesses via regulations, and destroying the fossil fuel industries not to mention leaving us well over $25 trillion in federal debt or, enshrining a monstrosity called Obamacare for generations. She'll also probably usher in the next great depression. God help this country.

On a brisk January afternoon our arborist, Billy Manning, came out to the farm to give us a pruning tutorial. We have nearly 1,000 young white oaks that were in need of what's often called "limbing up" and wanted to be sure we proceeded correctly.
Pruning done properly can help trees develop both strong structures and attractive shapes. Improper pruning can damage a tree for life. You should learn where and how to make cuts before you ever pick up a saw, then always have a reason for choosing what to cut.
Naturally, small cuts do less damage than large ones, so concentrate on pruning/training young trees. Mature trees cannot always close and heal wounds to thick branches. If cuts are too large, the tree may be opened to permanent decay or made susceptible to unhealthy sprout production.
Generally you should begin by removing dead or diseased branches. Next, take out limbs that are crossed over others. Most young trees have a single dominant leader that grows upward. You should not prune this back or allow secondary branches to outgrow it. If there happens to be two leaders, one should be removed while the tree is young.
Remember that your goal is to have a strong, tapered trunk with sturdy, well-spaced branches. It is very important to leave some of the lower lateral branches growing from the tree's side, at least temporarily, because their leaves are food factories for the trunk and help protect it from sun scorch. The rule that Mr. Manning taught us is to remove no more than 25 percent of a tree's limb/leaf volume at an annual pruning.
Pruning is not a job for chainsaws. Use hand pruning shears (secateurs) for small trees and lopping shears or a pruning saw for larger cuts. Make cuts just outside the branch collar, the raised knob where the branch attaches to the tree.

Details of a deadly shooting involving Hanahan police have slowly filtered out in the days since a suspect was killed in an exchange of gunfire with officers. But nearly a week after the incident, there is still no official police report detailing what happened.
Critics say that is too long and that it shows officers are treated differently than civilians in such situations.
The department and its supporters counter that it is more important to produce an accurate account of what happened than to expedite the release of information.
Hanahan Police Chief Mike Cochran said in an e-mail that the last officer involved in the shooting provided his statement on Friday. Cochran released additional details and dashboard video of the incident the same day, but indicated the official report will not be available until Monday.
"We cannot rush reports as they are the official record of what happened," he stated.
Hanahan Police Lt. Michael Fowler said the accepted practice is "to give the involved officers two sleep cycles before they put anything on paper."
Dot Scott, president of the NAACP's Charleston Branch, said a citizen involved in a similar shooting death is not allowed to wait days before making a statement to investigators. She said it would be better for an officer to give a statement shortly after such an event when details are fresh in his mind.
"It doesn't pass the smell test," she said.
In similar situations, most area police departments have released their reports on officer-involved shootings within 24 hours of the incidents. But some also give the officers who fire their weapons time to decompress and gather their thoughts before giving detailed statements, a practice Cochran and others said is supported by research studies.
Charleston police used that approach in March after a shootout wounded both an officer and the suspect he was chasing in West Ashley. Police had an officer not involved in the shooting write the report about the incident and investigators later gathered a more complete statement from the wounded officer, Charleston Police Chief Greg Mullen said.
"Generally, the more in-depth interview does not take until 24 or 48 hours after," he said. "It's pretty standard."
Dr. Jackie Fish, an expert in criminology at Charleston Southern University, said law enforcement officers are just like any other person. They have a right to an attorney during questioning. The stress and anxiety after a shooting may require medical attention as well, she said.
Fish said that she favored delaying the release of a report to ensure that correct information about the incident is disseminated. She said the community was informed of the Hanahan shooting in a timely manner, as well as the ongoing State Law Enforcement Division investigation into the incident,
"Why would the public need more than that until we have the facts?" she said.
Two sleep cycles?
What is known is that suspect Travis Miller, 22, died at the scene of last Monday's shooting from multiple gunshot wounds. Police said he was a passenger in a black BMW that led officers on a chase at about 11:40 p.m.
An officer attempted to pull the car over for having overly tinted windows, but the driver did not initially stop. Officers removed four occupants from the car and told them they were going to be patted down. That's when a male passenger ran toward a nearby wooded area. Miller reportedly fired at officers, and shots were returned, police said. A SWAT team found Miller dead soon after, police said.
Cochran said it was his understanding that the state Freedom of Information Act gave police 10 days to produce the report.
But Jay Bender, attorney for the South Carolina Press Association, said the FOIA has no such timetable. In fact, the law requires that all police reports for the previous 14 days must be made available to the public upon request, without a waiting period, he said,
"I don't know where he got this notion of 10 days. He's making that up," Bender said. "I do know that in the case of police-involved shooting, the longer this goes on, the less credibility any document produced by the department will have."
Bender, who also represents The Post and Courier, said he had never heard of the research suggesting police benefit from giving officers two sleep cycles before taking a statement on shootings. "It sounds to me like it would be more detailed because they are giving them time to go behind the horse shed and get their stories straight," he said.
Bill Rogers, the press association's executive director, said in cases of officer-involved shootings it "is more important than ever to make that report available as rapidly as possible. Otherwise, there is an appearance of a cover-up."
Sharper memories
The issue of when it is best to interview an officer involved in a shooting was the subject of a 2010 study involving deputies from the Richland County Sheriff's Office. Researchers found that deputies' memories were sharper when asked to recount a high-stress incident immediately after it occurred rather than a few days later.
However, the study said there is no formula for handling such situations. "Putting pressure on officers by forcing them to recount a traumatic event too soon may result in incomplete and inaccurate information, possibly leading to grave errors in an investigation," it states.
The study's authors were Geoffrey P. Alpert, a criminology professor at the University of South Carolina, Richland County Sheriff Leon Lott and Sgt. John Rivera of the Miami-Dade, Fla. Police Department.
The deputies, who were divided into two groups, participated in training exercises that involved live-fire simulation. One group responded to a terrorist attack in a school. Another was called to a classroom shooting.
The researchers tested memory in two categories. The first test gauged recall of the people and weapons involved. The second tested memory of the conditions under which the event occurred. Overall, deputies remembered more about the immediate threats than the environment the event occurred in.
The researchers noted that the officers' memory of threats weakened slightly as time passed.
The researchers also noted that there is no law-enforcement-wide best practice or industry standard for determining how soon officers should be interviewed after a shooting.
The California-based Police Assessment Resource Center has recommended that officers who were involved in or witnessed a shooting be interviewed no later than a few hours after the event. The International Association of Chiefs of Police guidelines say that investigators should give officers time to recover after the incident before any detailed interviews. The recovery time could range from a few hours to overnight, the study stated.
The study stated that many agencies have implemented policies requiring officers to wait at least 24 hours before giving an interview or speaking to an investigator in an effort to produce more accurate and thorough statements.
"In this respect, these departments treat officers differently than they do suspects or civilian witnesses," the study states.
"If agencies think that officers involved in a traumatic event provide better accounts after a waiting period, then why are witnesses and suspects interviewed as soon as possible after the incident?"
Mullen, of Charleston, said there isn't a double-standard. He said witnesses are often afforded additional time as well, particularly if they are distraught, and suspects always have the option of not talking to officers or delaying a statement until an attorney is present.
"I don't think suspects are thinking about sleep cycles," he said. "But they do have the same opportunity to say 'I don't want to talk now,' and we can't make them talk to us."

Esophageal and Gastric Surgery and Hernia Repair
Since 1992, thousands of patients have received surgical treatment for achalasia, esophageal tumors and cancer, gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), hiatal hernia, stomach cancer, and ulcer disease at the Emory Gastroesophageal Center, making it one of the leading referral centers of its type in the country.
Available laparoscopic and/or open surgical procedures include:
- Catheterless/wireless esophageal pH testing
- Endoscopic plication for Reflux
- Esophagectomy
- Gastrectomy
- Heller myotomy for achalasia
- Hiatal hernia repair
- Small intestine resection
- Nissen Fundoplication for Reflux
Spotlight on Hiatal Hernia Repair
Having been involved in some of the world's most extensive multi-institutional studies of laparoscopic ventral and inguinal hernia repair, the Emory Hernia Institute is a referral/consultation center for difficult paraesophageal hernias, inguinal and incisional and abdominal wall hernia cases from throughout the southeastern U.S. Open methods are available as well.
Paraesophageal hernias, in which the stomach has pushed through the diaphragm and into the chest cavity, are rare and challenging surgical problems. Typically found in women age 50 and older, paraesophageal hernias may take many years to develop and tend to grow larger over time. Most people with paraesophageal hernias experience few, if any, symptoms, and in most of these cases, the hernia need not be repaired. However, in some cases, the hernia has twisted into the chest and surgery is recommended to repair the hernia and minimize potential complications. Generally, this repair can be accomplished laparoscopically, even for very large hernias, thereby enhancing patient recovery.
The surgeons at Emory Healthcare have extensive experience in successfully treating paraesophageal hernias. Over the past 20 years, the team has treated hundreds of patients with giant paraesophageal hernias, completing more than 300 in the last five years alone, making our team international experts in this area.
In addition, the surgical team has developed a key innovation in which they combine the techniques of weight-loss surgery with giant paraesophageal hernia repairs. This has reduced the risk of recurrence in patients who are obese or who have delayed stomach emptying — both being key factors in recurrence of the paraesophageal hernias.
As part of our comprehensive, cross-disciplinary approach, the Emory Gastroesophageal Treatment Center partners with referring gastroenterologists to perform state-of-the-art testing, enabling patients to have their evaluations conducted close to home by their local gastroenterologists.

Smoke is a burning topic on on the minds of Central Oregonians. And Monday, Samantha O'Connor went out to Warm Springs to find out more about the haze.
The smoke was thick -- you could smell it and feel it as soon as you got out of the car.
But officials tell NewsChannel 21 that the smoke actually helps fight these fires, "Because it keeps the direct sun off the fire, not as much as oxygen, firefighters are allowed to get a little closer and do some good work," said Information Officer Jim Whittington.
While it's easy to complain about the smoke -- and the scratchy throat-- just remember the firefighters out on the lines.
"Even though it's smoky for the rest of the community, we think it's going to pay off in the long run," Whittington said.
The smoke also blocks the mountain views: "Mt. Hood is over there, but you can't even see it because of all the smoke," Whittington explained.
But the thick smoke can also cut visibility in half, which makes certain firefighting techniques difficult.
Whittington told us, "The downside to a day like this -- you don't have the opportunity to use aircraft very much, because they can't see where they are flying or where they are dropping water or retardant."
Officials are confident in their progress, especially now that the smoke is on their side.
While smoke can be uncomfortable, officials say there are no proven long-term effects of smoke inhalation -- if brief enough and not too intense. Experts suggest staying indoors if you are struggling with the smoke and, of course, avoid physical exercise.

Sorry about that, there was a mess-up with the original english strings and their fall backs. We've had to re-add all those strings. The translations are still there though, so the plan is to have a script run through and add the translated strings back in for all of these so you don't have to redo it, worst case scenario we'll do it manually.
There has also been some additions and typos fixed in the english strings (gah!) so those we'll ask you to take a look at again. So sorry about this, hopefully we'll get it back to close to completion very soon.

sendhil 4:51 pm on May 20, 2013 Permalink | Log in to Reply
Hey everyone, sorry about the confusion with the strings. Isaac mentioned briefly what happened, but I'll go into more detail.
What happened was that I was encoding a couple of the New User Experience related strings with more developer sounding keys rather than the full english translation and we realized a few days ago that on incomplete translations rather than falling back to the English, the key would be used. I.e., on our New User Experience instead of seeing "Welcome to WordPress" you'd see "NUX_First_Walkthrough_Page1_Title". Here's an example:
As this was highly undesirable, I went in and updated the string keys to match their english translation. The problem was that if I uploaded this new strings file, all the hard work you and everyone else did would be lost and I didn't want you all to waste your time because of my mistake. So what I did was before the new strings file was uploaded I downloaded all of the strings files where you had made translations to the strings that were about to be lost. I then uploaded the new file and by hand went in and copied and pasted in your old strings. So almost all of your old work should be retained.
That being said, during that process we also realized that when a user created an account through the new user experience, we weren't giving the most descriptive of error messages. To fix this, we decided to add in about 25 new error messages so that way if a user encounters an error during the new user creation flow they'll be able to better understand what exactly went wrong. This is why there are about 2 pages of untranslated strings left on each of the translations you all did, none of those strings existed on GlotPress a few days ago.
Again, I'm sincerely sorry about any confusion I might have caused.

South production of 'Phantom' dazzles audience
THOMAS KEATING '13| Entertainment Editor
Note that this review was written after viewing the blue cast performance of "Phantom." The gold and blue cast alternate performances each day.
Before I begin, I'd just like to say that the production of a Grosse Pointe South musical is no simple endeavor. As a veteran of South's 2010 production of "Pippin", I am all too familiar with the long hours, stress and more long hours that go into a production. These students worked their derrieres off (I can say that one, right?), and deserve recognition for that work alone.
First of all, the acting was phenomenal. Brian Hall '12 delivered a particularly amazing performance as the Phantom, after whom the musical is named. The Phantom is a physically disfigured, musical genius who lurks around an opera house, tormenting the actors, musicians, dancers and managers that occupy the theatre. Hall's acting skills allowed him to walk the line between a manipulating villain and a misunderstood hero the Phantom must tread. His pained, yet sympathetic portrayal was worthy of this legendary role.
Christina Swanson's '12 performance of Christine was equally fantastic. Her mastery of ridiculously high notes was impressive to say the least. Swanson's performance was spot-on and deserved every bit of applause it recieved. Weronika Lukaszewska and Carolyn Alam, both '12, also held their own as the other female leads, Meg Giry and Madame Giry.
The actor who truly stole the show was Frankie Thams '15. As Raoul, Christine's love interest, Thams was well-prepared to play this powerful lead. But the most impressive part is that Thams is just a freshman. In South productions, it is rare for a freshman to get more than two or three lines. Frankie, however, earned a well-deserved place on the main cast, holding his own when singing with Swanson, as well as in an epic swordfight with Hall (did I mention there's an epic swordfight? Yeah, there's an epic swordfight).
Jack Dailey '14 and Dante Wildern '12 were hilarious as well as dramatic in the roles of the new owners of the theater. The two had superb on-stage chemistry, as shown in several scenes in which they bicker and scheme, all trying to rid their new investment of the nuisance that is the Phantom.
The other couple, two Italian prima donnas starring in the theater's productions, were clear audience favorites (although the audience seemed to like everything). Nick "Nill" Savinov's '12 portrayal of an overconfident Italian actor incited huge laughs from the audience. The same could be said for Elyse Croce '12, essentially a female version of Savinov's character.
Although the production was expensive, I think the audience got its money's worth. The scenes and special effects were fantastic. Effects included a sea of fog, some dang impressive lighting and, my personal favorite, a chandelier that breaks and reassembles. Special thanks go to Dan Vicary, the tech director, and his crew for creating a brilliant atmosphere.
We can't forget the minor characters. Ryan Powell '14, in particular, was an effective and hilarious actor, both as an auctioneer and an incompetent policeman. On top of that, the ballet dancers were a great addition to the show, giving a rather grim show a lighter feel at times.
So, if you couldn't tell already, I thought the show was pretty good. I suggest you go see it. If not for me and not for the cast who's worked so hard on this, go see it because it was truly exceptional. I might even have to go see the gold cast after the blue cast's stellar performance.
Times for other performances include:
4/26, 5/5- 7:30 p.m.
4/27, 4/28, 5/4, 5/5 – 8 p.m.
4/29 – 3 p.m
My wife and I attended the Thursday, May 3rd, performance of "Phantom Of The Opera" and I must say we were impressed! VERY impressed! We both went in not quite knowing what to expect and walked out literally in a daze, our jaws hanging in amazement. Having seen "Phantom" in Chicago and also at the Masonic Temple in Detroit, I will venture to say that your production was on a par with any professional company. The talent and vocal range on that stage last Thursday was awe inspiring! The staging, costumes, music and production values were outstanding! Seriously, that show could have been taken on the road.
My only regret was that the run was not longer so I could tell some of my theater loving friends to attend. Maybe we'll see the show reprised again at a later date? At any rate, Grosse Pointe South High, please accept our thanks for a wonderful evening. Everyone involved in your production of "Phantom" should be proud of themselves!

Current research in the United States, India, and England may lead to a new method of destroying spermatogenesis.
Prompted by the observations of Dr. J. Parizek in Czechoslovakia, these studies, developed thus far in animals, involve irreversible destruction of the seminiferous tubules and epithelium of the testes by administration of salts of the trace metal, cadmium chloride.
Sterilization is permanent, but the interstitium regenerates after initial atrophy allowing return of other hormone functions, a research team composed of Samuel A. Gunn, MD, Thelma Clark Gould, PhD, and W. A. D. Anderson, MD, of the Department of Pathology of the University of Miami ( Fla) School of Medicine, told The Journal.
Although the original studies on preventing spermatogenesis involved subcutaneous injection of the salt, in more recent experiments cadmium has been injected in minute doses intratesticularly, or applied to the scrotum in the form of an ointment.

Ultimately, the success of personalized medicine will rise or fall on its ability to demonstrate its value to the healthcare system, to the industries that develop its products, and to patients. The promise of personalized medicine, for which tangible evidence already exists, includes the ability to:
Personalized medicine introduces the ability to use molecular markers that signal the risk of disease or its presence before clinical signs and symptoms appear. This information underlies a healthcare strategy focused on prevention and early intervention, rather than a reaction to advanced stages of disease. Such a strategy can delay disease onset or minimize symptom severity.
One example is a test used to look for BRCA1 and BRCA2 genetic mutations indicating a hereditary propensity for breast and ovarian cancer.
Women with BRCA1 or BRCA2 genetic risk factors have a 36% to 85% lifetime chance of developing breast cancer, compared with a 13% chance among the general female population.
For ovarian cancer, women with certain BRCA1 or BRCA2 gene mutations have a 16% to 60% chance of disease, compared with a 1.7% chance among the general population. The BRCA1 and BRCA2 genetic test can guide preventive measures such as increased frequency of mammography, prophylactic surgery, and chemoprevention.
Over 1,300 genetic tests exist that signal inherited susceptibility to conditions as wide-ranging as hearing loss and sudden cardiac arrest. While not every test has a therapeutic option, a genetic diagnosis often permits targeted prevention or mitigation strategies.
On average, a drug on the market works for only 50% of the people who take it. The consequences in terms of quality and cost of care are significant, leaving patients to contend with their disease and their medical bills as they switch from one drug to another until they find an effective therapy. Studies have linked differences in response to the differences in genes that code for the drug-metabolizing enzymes, drug transporters, or drug targets. The use of genetic and other forms of molecular screening allows the physician to select an optimal therapy the first time and avoid the frustrating and costly practice of trial-and-error prescriptions.

April 10, 2013 – St Helens & Knowsley Health Informatics Service (StHK HIS) today announces that Grove House Practice in Runcorn, Cheshire, is the first GP surgery in the UK to use its new hosted electronic Lloyd George Records Service to digitise its complete library, comprising 13,000 legacy patient records.
This will release much needed space in the surgery for clinical activities, improve efficiency, enhance the availability of patient information for medical and support staff, and remove the substantial costs and risks associated with physical records management in primary care. Ultimately it allows practice staff to focus on offering a better service to patients rather than time being spent on unproductive administrative tasks.
The electronic Lloyd George Records Service (e-LGS) is the first solution of its kind in the NHS and comprises a fully managed end-to-end service covering records collection, notes scanning, data hosting, training and support, and portal software. Managed by NHS experts, e-LGS is a secure, easy to set up, and cost effective solution to an old problem.
Dr. David Wilson, Senior Partner GP, Grove House Practice, says, "Digitisation and removal of the Lloyd George records is a logical step given it's the only area not computerised within our surgery. The benefits are immediate: practice efficiency and space realisation. Removing our racking systems for notes means more room available for clinical care. This is crucial as our role in the NHS broadens and we take on more counselling services, GP registrar training, and some work shifts from secondary to primary care."
This means that e-LGS now stores all patient information from before the year 2000 which is when Grove House Practice stopped physically writing notes on sheets and switched to an electronic clinical system. The practice has 11,000 patients and 13,000 patient envelopes [some patients have more than one envelope]. In terms of storage, this took up a third of its reception area which will now be repurposed.
Grove House Practice staff access the system using a standard Internet browser, and once logged in, the portal displays four chapters: patient correspondence (letters), continuation cards, results and summary reports.
Joanne Hughes, Deputy Practice Manager, explains, "Information is now available at a touch of a button. You select a patient, choose the appropriate chapter and this allows you to review all the scanned documents associated with that individual. It's a simple viewing tool which allows you to magnify and print documents if you want, and required just 10 minutes of training to use."
Although Lloyd George records are not usually used in day-to-day patient consultations, it is obligatory for practices to keep them as they are often required by GPs when reports are written for solicitors, insurers and other officials, and access to historical patient information is needed.
With paper, records would be requested, a receptionist dispatched to find and deliver the files, and then a GP would have to unravel pages of crumpled and dusty sheets to locate the section required, with everything then put back afterwards. Furthermore, practice staff would have to photocopy pages for reports and also send files to its local health authority when patients change surgeries.
Jacky Slator, Practice Manager, says, "We estimate we were spending at least half a day per a week moving and copying files. Today, everything is available online when we need it and if we need to export data, it's done using encrypted discs."
In addition to the financial, space and information access benefits, e-LGS is simple to administer, removes the risk of paper being incorrectly filed, improves the working environment as clutter is removed, and preserves information as digitising content eliminates the issue of paper medical records deteriorating over time [crucial as some paperwork can be over 50 years old].
The electronic Lloyd George Records Service is offered to all GP practices in the UK and was created through a partnership between StHK HIS and electronic document management software (EDMS) vendor, CCube Solutions, with Kodak scanners used for digitising records.
All patient data is hosted and backed-up securely and managed by StHK HIS in its fully resilient datacentres.

CBNNews.com - Virginia's House of Delegates has passed a bill that restores State Police chaplains' rights to pray in the name of Jesus Christ.
The bill reverses last year's order for police to offer non-denominational prayers at official events such as trooper graduation ceremonies and the annual memorial service for fallen officers.
Bill sponsor, Del. Charles W. Carrico Sr., R-Grayson, said that not allowing such prayers would violate freedom of speech and freedom of religion.
In a floor debate to overturn the order, some delegates quoted the Bible and Thomas Jefferson.
House Majority Leader H. Morgan Griffith, R-Salem said that Thomas Jefferson did not intend to hinder any form of prayer when he wrote the Virginia Statute for Religious Freedom.
"Jefferson did not mean to bleach out from our society all public prayer, or all prayer from the various denominations," Griffith said.
Del. Robert G. Marshall, R-Prince William, pointed out that prayers opening each daily session of the General Assembly frequently invoke the name of Jesus.
However, Va. Governor Tim Kaine, chair of the Democratic National Committee, is expected to veto the bill if it reaches his office.
"If you are getting paid to be a state chaplain and you are on the clock as a state employee, you shouldn't be proselytizing; you should be in these public settings offering prayers that should really be inclusive," he said.
The Family Foundation of Virginia labeled the policy an attack on Christianity.
Foundation president Victoria Cobb said the bill is "reasonable legislation that simply protects the freedom of conscience and speech of those state police law enforcement officers who volunteer their time as chaplains."
The bill passed the House on a 66-30 vote.

• This study of two types of optokinetic nystagmus (OKN) provides evidence that previously reported pursuit impairments in schizophrenics may be due to a cortical dysfunction. Differences in responses to partial-field and full-field OKN stimuli strongly support the hypothesis that there are two functionally distinct but anatomically overlapping mechanisms that can produce nystagmus responses. Partial-field OKN is composed of alternating phases of pursuit and saccadic movements. The slow phases of partial-field OKN, like pursuit eye movements, are of significantly poorer quality in schizophrenics compared with normal controls. Full-field OKN, however, is intact in both groups. Partial-field OKN is an improved test for pursuit abnormalities that reflect disturbances of nonvoluntary attention.

You can currently write to Rupert at:
Rupert Grint
P.O. Box 479
Information updated: 3/15/2012
Please direct ALL fan-mail to this address!
Have a question which needs a fast response? Contact Claire.
Pointers for writing to Rupert:
- As of 2010, Rupert is sending out letters and printed signed pictures to fans who send a letter to him.
- The best way to ensure yourself a reply from Rupert is to write on the back of the envelope your own mailing address. Also writing your address on your correspondance letter is a good idea, as if something happens to the envelope you won't recieve a reply!
- Providing a SAE (Stamp Addressed Envelope) is another good way to ensure a reply.
- Do not include any obscene material which Rupert may find embarrassing in your letter or package. This will lessen your chances of a reply substantially!
- Do not include food in your letter or package. Imagine opening up a letter yourself to find a squashed brownie or cookie which has travelled thousands of miles ... you get the idea.
- Not all letters are replied to by Rupert, if he's busy filming it will usually be a standard letter sent out to fans.
- Don't be disheartened if you don't recieve an immediate reply, as most fans usually wait 2-3 months before they recieve a letter back!

ClimDev-Africa Highlights Commitment to Tackling Climate Change
7 March 2013: Participants at the Fourth Session of the Steering Committee Meeting of the Climate for Development in Africa (ClimDev-Africa) Initiative reiterated their commitment to tackling climate change impacts in Africa, and recognized a need for the three lead partners, the African Union Commission (AUC), the UN Economic Commission for Africa (UN ECA) and the African Development Bank (AfDB), to work as one in implementing its 2013 work plan.
At the meeting, which took place in Tunis, Tunisia, from 6-7 March 2013, Committee members called for: increased efforts to ensure that ClimDev-Africa works within its original mandate; and the establishment of a communication strategy to inform the public on programme activities, as well as to keep partners informed on progress and challenges faced by ClimDev-Africa.
Participants also heard a report on implemented activities in 2011-2012, including on pilot projects, areas of research and strategic support to the African Group of Negotiators (AGN). While recognizing the challenges climate change poses to Africa, Rhoda Peace Tumusiime, African Union Commissioner for Rural Economy and Agriculture, said the Initiative "would be equal to the task." Aly Abou-Sabaa, AfDB, indicated that the Bank remains supportive of efforts to address climate change impacts within the Initiative.
ClimDev-Africa is an integrated, multi-partner programme addressing climate observations, climate services, climate risk management, and climate policy needs in Africa. The principal partners are UNECA, the African Union (AU), AfDB, and the World Meteorological Organization (WMO). The Initiative aims to explore actions to overcome climate information gaps and includes three elements: the African Climate Policy Center at UNECA; the Climate Change and Desertification Control Unit at the AUC; and the ClimDev Special Fund (CDSF) at the AfDB. The Fund currently has €144 million for 2012-2014. [AfDB Press Release] [ClimDev Africa Initiative Website]
