The main aim of this study was to identify subgroups of patients characterized by having hallucinations only or delusions only and to examine whether these groups differed with regard to demographic characteristics, clinical characteristics and outcome factors, including suicidality.
Out of 301 consecutively admitted patients with first-episode psychosis, individuals with delusions only (D) and hallucinations only (H) were identified based on Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS) items P1 (delusions) and P3 (hallucinations) scores at baseline and through 4 follow-up interviews over 5 years. The subgroups were compared with regard to demographic data, premorbid functioning, duration of untreated psychosis, clinical variables, time to remission and suicidality.
Two groups of patients were identified; H (n = 16) and D (n = 106). 179 patients experienced both hallucinations and delusions (dual symptom group). The H group was significantly younger, had a longer duration of untreated psychosis, poorer premorbid function and better insight than the D group. Notably, the H group scored higher on measures of suicidality, and at 5 years follow-up a significantly higher proportion of patients was lost to suicide in this group. The dual symptom group was closer to the D group on significant parameters, including suicidality and suicide rate.
Patients with hallucinations only can be separated from patients with delusions only and the subgroups differ with regard to demographical data, clinical variables and notably with regard to suicidality. These findings suggest distinctions in the underlying biological and psychological processes involved in hallucinations and in delusions.
Lately, there has been a revival of the debate on how to best describe and define the psychotic illnesses [1,2]. These illnesses have proven to be heterogeneous with regard to clinical features and etiology. Categorically based diagnoses have proven insufficient in the search for genetic correlates and specific brain morphology [3,4]. Consequently studying more homogenous subgroups of psychotic illnesses based on individual symptoms and a dimensional approach might further our understanding of psychotic illnesses.
Delusions and hallucinations comprise the main features of the reality distortion component of psychotic illnesses, and have in many studies been described together as the positive symptom component. Though commonly described together, these symptoms often occur separately and possibly contribute to different outcomes including suicidality.
Little has been done to disentangle subgroups of positive symptom sufferers. Clinical studies of patients who experience delusional ideation without also suffering from hallucinosis, usually focus on delusional disorder [5,6], and this diagnosis generally infers better outcome [7]. Other samples of patients who experience delusions only have not received specific attention.
Contrasting groups that experience hallucinations but not delusions have received limited attention in the literature. It has been described in nonclinical samples, e.g. in a study comparing a group of voice hearers without additional psychopathology to a normal (non-voice-hearing) control group. This study found the voice-hearing group to have poorer global functioning [8]. Another study comparing a similar group of voice hearers to a schizophrenia patient group found that while the form of hallucinations was similar between patient and nonpatient groups, other differences existed between the groups in terms of hallucinatory content, emotional quality and locus of control of the voices [9]. Recently, a patient group with a clinical picture dominated by hallucinations rather than delusions has been described [10,11]. The group was labeled hallucinatory disorder and found to be of older age, to have higher academic achievement, to score better on insight measures and to have higher suicidality compared to a traditional schizophrenia patient group. The study lent evidence to hallucinatory disorder as a separate disease entity.
A number of studies have recorded the presence of both hallucinations and delusions in patient samples over time and related individual symptoms to associated symptoms and outcome factors [12,13]. Furthermore, several studies have related the presence of delusions and of hallucinations to suicidality. A study investigating the relationship between delusions and suicidality found no evidence of a significant correlation between delusions at admission, and a history of suicidal ideation or suicide attempts [14]. The association between hallucinosis and suicidality is unclear, with a limited number of studies showing hallucinations as a risk factor for suicidality [15,16]. Lately, the OPUS study found that hallucinations at 2 years of follow-up predicted suicidality (plans and attempts) in first-episode psychosis [17]. These studies, however, looked at data cross-sectionally and recorded the number of patients suffering from any one symptom at a particular time rather than showing longitudinal symptom profiles and their separate correlates.
Our aim in this study was to examine to what extent monopositively symptomatic first-episode psychosis (FEP) patients differ with regard to demography, premorbid function, duration of untreated psychosis (DUP), time to remission, associated symptomatology and suicidality. We wanted to follow the longitudinal trajectory of patients with FEP with hallucinations only or delusions only. Such subgroups are not very common and rarely examined. However, given our large first-episode sample, meaningful comparisons between the 2 groups could be made. By studying symptoms in subgroups not based on the traditional DSM subtypes, we wanted to shed light on whether different pathological mechanisms were involved in delusions and hallucinations. More specifically we wanted to answer the following research questions:
The Early Treatment and Identification of Psychosis study is a large, cross-sectional and longitudinal study of consecutively admitted FEP patients [18,19]. The study was designed to identify and follow up clinical, epidemiologic samples of FEP patients from 4 Scandinavian catchment areas. All patients were evaluated reliably with an extensive clinical assessment battery at baseline, and re-evaluated after 3 months, 1 year, 2 years and 5 years [20].
The study was carried out within the specialist psychiatric healthcare services of 4 Scandinavian health care sectors (North and South Sector, Rogaland County, Norway, Ullevaal Sector, Oslo, Norway, and Fjorden Midsector, Roskilde, Denmark).
The criteria for inclusion were:
The exclusion criteria were receiving adequate prior antipsychotic treatment and an organic/substance-induced psychosis.
Written informed consent was obtained from all subjects, and the study was approved by the regional ethics research committees. Altogether 301 patients were included from 1997 through 2000.
The current study looked at 2 groups of patients taken from the above sample.
Patients who were found to experience hallucinations (PANSS score P3, hallucinations, of ≥4) on follow-up interviews, up to and including 5 years, were removed from the group (n = 19).
This study aimed to explore monosymptomatic positive symptom groups. The patients experiencing both hallucinations and delusions (n = 179) were not the focus of the present study.
The structured clinical interview for the DSM-IV (SCID) was used for diagnostic purposes[21]. Symptom levels were measured by the Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale Score (PANSS)[22], and symptom domains were represented by the corresponding PANSS components (positive, negative, excitative, cognitive and depressive) [23]. The patients were further described by individual PANSS items P1 (delusions), P3 (hallucinations) and G12 (insight). Global functioning was measured by the Global Assessment of Functioning Scale (GAF) [24]. Social functioning (number of friends and work functioning) at baseline was measured with the Strauss-Carpenter scale [25]. Quality of life was evaluated by Lehman's Quality of Life Interview [26]. In this study we used the item 'satisfaction with life in general'. The DUP was measured as the time in weeks from the first positive psychotic symptoms (PANSS score of ≥4 on positive scale items 1, 3, 5 or 6 or general scale item 9) to the start of the first adequate treatment of psychosis (i.e. admission to the study). Remission was defined as a period of at least 1 week without positive psychotic symptoms corresponding to a PANSS score ≤3 on positive subscale items 1, 3, 5 and 6 and on general subscale 9. Time to remission was defined as the time to adequate treatment was initiated to remission of symptoms as described above. Premorbid functioning was measured by the PAS, which describes 4 premorbid periods in life: childhood (up to 11 years), early adolescence (12–15 years), late adolescence (16–18 years) and adulthood (19 years and beyond). A previous analysis identified 2 premorbid dimensions: social consisting of PAS items social isolation and peer relationships and academic, which comprises school performance and school adaptation [27]. Suicidality was assessed by asking the patients at index diagnostic interview whether they had experienced any suicidal thoughts, plans or attempts in the preceding month (suicidality at baseline) or whether they had experienced any suicidal thoughts, plans or attempts earlier in their lifetime (suicidality before baseline). The questions were repeated in the follow-up interviews.
All raters were trained in the use of the study instruments by rating previously prepared case notes and audiotapes/videotapes before entering the study assessment teams. The assessment teams consisted of the same raters throughout the study. Good reliability for all major variables (PANSS, DUP and diagnosis) was achieved [28].
The analysis was performed with the SPSS Statistical Program (version 16: SPSS Inc., Chicago, Ill., USA). Means and standard deviations are reported for continuous variables and percentages for categorical variables. DUP had a markedly left-skewed distribution and was transformed to its natural logarithm, which is normally distributed, before the t test was performed.
The clinical data were statistically analyzed using conventional descriptive methods and t tests. For nonparametric data and data of skewed distribution χ2 and Mann-Whitney tests were performed. In situations where ≥1 expected cell frequencies were <5, Fisher's exact test was used.
At baseline a total of 25 patients experienced hallucinations without also experiencing delusions. Nine of these patients later developed delusions, reported in follow-up interviews, leaving a total of 16 patients (H group) who experienced hallucinations without ever scoring >3 on delusions (PANSS P1) in the follow-up period. Baseline data further revealed a group of 125 patients whose presentation was that of delusions without concurrent hallucinations. Of these, 19 patients reported hallucinations in follow-up interviews, leaving a total of 106 delusional patients (D group) who never scored >3 on hallucinations (PANSS P3) in the follow-up period. Consequently, this study showed that it was possible to separate out 2 different subgroups of patients from a sample of patients with FEP on the basis of specific symptomatology.
As displayed in table table1,1, the H group was younger, had fewer completed years of education at baseline and a longer DUP compared to the D group. The diagnostic distribution in the H group was as follows: schizophrenia = 7 (44%), schizoaffective disorder = 4 (24%), mood disorder with mood-incongruent psychotic features = 3 (19%), brief psychotic disorder = 1 (6%) and psychosis not otherwise specified = 1 (6%). The diagnostic distribution in the D group was: schizophrenia = 24 (22%), schizophreniform disorder = 19 (18%), schizoaffective disorder = 7 (7%), delusional disorder = 12 (11%), mood disorder with mood-incongruent psychotic features = 16 (15%), brief psychotic disorder = 10 (9%) and psychosis not otherwise specified = 20 (19%). These diagnostic differences were expected based on the differential weight of the different symptoms in DSM IV.
Data describing premorbid functioning are displayed in table table2.2. The D group reported better premorbid functioning on all measures.
Table Table33 shows PANSS component scores, insight scores (G12) and scores for delusions item (P1) and hallucinations item (P3) as well as GAF scores at baseline and through 5 years of follow-up for the 2 groups. Most notably, the H group showed better cognitive functioning at all points (statistically significant at 2 and 5 years) and better insight at all points (statistically significant at baseline and 5 years). No statistically significant difference was found in the PANSS depression component. With regards to the positive component the H group scored consistently lower than the D group (statistically significant difference at baseline). As expected there were significant differences between the groups on measures of delusions (item P1) and hallucinations (item P3).
No significant differences between the groups were found on satisfaction with life in general (Lehman's Quality of Life Interview) or social functioning (Strauss-Carpenter scale).
Regarding the use of antipsychotic medication, this study included a fixed regimen for the first 2 years of the study (for details [29]). In years 3, 4 and 5 a larger proportion of the D group were prescribed medication (no statistically significant differences). Furthermore, the D group used consistently higher doses on all points of measure (no statistically significant differences).
Table Table44 addresses the group differences in suicidality. Suicidality before admission was significantly higher in the H than the D group. At the 5-year interview a total of 4 patients from the H group were dead. In the 5-fold larger D group, 5 patients were dead. In the H group 3 people were dead by suicide and 1 from overdose. In the D group 2 patients were dead by suicide, 1 from overdose and 2 from unclear cause. Statistical analyses of the numbers of patients dead by suicide showed a significantly higher rate of completed suicides in the hallucination only group (Fisher exact test; p = 0.016).
A total of 179 patients showed a disposition to both hallucinations and delusions when initially ill or in relapse. As expected, this dual symptom group proved more symptom burdened (PANSS) and with poorer global functioning (GAF) than both the H and the D groups (significant differences, p < 0.05, between D and dual symptom group on GAFs and GAFf and PANSS positive symptoms scores, and between H and the dual symptom group on PANSS positive symptoms, on all assessments). With regard to PANSS insight (G12) and cognitive component the dual symptom group scored consistently poorer than the monosymptomatic groups at all points of measure (statistically significant differences between the dual and H groups at baseline and 5 years for insight and 1, 2 and 5 years for cognition, and between the D and dual groups at 3 months, 1 year and 5 years for insight and at 1, 2 and 5 years for cognition).
There were no statistically significant differences in suicidality between the dual symptom group and the D group at any point of measure. After 5 years of follow-up 6 patients in the dual symptom group had passed away, 3 by suicide. Analysis showed no statistically significant difference in suicide rate between the dual symptom group and the D group. Between the mixed group and the H group, however, the difference was significant (Fisher's exact test; p = 0.009).
This study demonstrated that it is possible to identify 2 subgroups of monopositively symptomatic FEP patients from a longitudinal symptom perspective. We found that the patients with a clinical picture dominated by hallucinations were of a younger age and had completed fewer years of education. This contrasted with results from a previous study by Mauri et al. [11], who found the group of patients dominated by hallucinations to be older at the time of onset and with higher academic achievement. On the other hand our findings are similar to previously mentioned studies of nonclinical voice hearers that reported the group experiencing hallucinations to be younger at the age of onset compared to a schizophrenia patient group [9]. The main reason for the divergent findings is likely because different patient populations were involved, i.e. Mauri et al. [11] examined patients with chronic psychosis, whereas our patients were in their first episode.
We additionally found that the H group scored poorer on both social and academic premorbid variables. To our knowledge no other study has examined this relationship, or found this difference that appears to be present even before the onset of psychosis.
The most notable finding of this study is the apparent relationship between symptomatology and suicidality. The difference in suicidality between the 2 groups was statistically significant at baseline but appeared to level out at later times. This could be due to attrition of the most highly suicidal patients in the H group, where 25% of the patients were deceased at the 5-year follow-up. This contrasts with the D group, where the mortality rate was much lower (1 fifth), and fewer patients were lost to suicide.
It may be that the increased suicidality in the H group could be related to the clinical picture itself, insofar as hallucinations tend to be experienced as frightening, intrusive and imperative, and might lead to suicidal thoughts and acts more easily. A recent review of schizophrenia and suicidality reported on 5 empirical studies of command hallucinations and their relationship to suicidality [30]. The results were conflicting, with 3 of the studies finding that command hallucinations did not correlate significantly with suicidal ideation and attempts.
Our data indicate that suicidality is more tightly linked to hallucinations than delusions. A potential mediator between hallucinations and suicidality could be insight. A substantial body of data supports insight as a risk factor for suicidality in schizophrenia[31,32,33]. As previously mentioned by Mauri et al. [10], better insight might be linked with hallucinations. More recently a study found that patients with hallucinations without concurrent delusions had better cognitive insight than patients with delusions only [34]. Our study assesses insight using the PANSS G12 item. This measure has shown good correlation with measures of insight in more specialized insight scales such as the Beck Cognitive Insight Scale, the Birchwood Self Rating Scale and the Schedule of Assessment of Insight – expanded version [35,36]. Our results show that the more suicidal H group displayed better insight on all assessments. Furthermore, they scored consistently better than the D group on the cognitive component of the PANSS. Two recent meta-analyses have found that cognitive deficits and poor insight may be linked [37,38].
Compared to the monosymptomatic patients, who are the focus of this paper, the patients who experienced both hallucinations and delusions were found to be more symptom burdened and have poorer global functioning. Notably, the dual symptom group scored closer to the D group with respect to suicidality and suicide rate. Furthermore, this dual symptom group had poorer insight scores than the single symptom groups at baseline and on all follow-ups. On the basis of these findings we could hypothesize that delusions could have a protective effect on suicidality, and that this possibly could be mediated by reduced insight associated with delusions. Overall, we feel our findings suggest a further link between hallucinations and suicidality that ought to be explored.
Other potential mediators of suicidality could be DUP and premorbid function. Previous literature has found poor premorbid function to be both a risk factor [39] and a protective factor [29,38] for suicidality. Long DUP has been related to suicidality in FEP [40,41], while other FEP studies have failed to find this association [17,42]. While longer DUP could explain some of the differences in suicidality between the groups before baseline, it is less certain how much it might contribute to the higher suicide rate in the H group at 5 years of follow-up.
This study is limited by the small sample of patients in the hallucinations only group. In fact such a clinical picture is not commonly seen. A related limitation is the small number, particularly in our H group, after the 2-year follow-up (n = 13 at the 2-year follow-up), when a significant number of patients in this group had been lost to suicide. As a consequence of the small sample size in the H group, advanced multivariate statistics were not performed. A further limitation of the present study is the lack of a standardized measure of suicide risk. The assessment tool provided has, however, formed the basis of indepth investigations of suicidality in FEP [43].
In conclusion, this study contributes to a growing corpus of data that encourages a return to the study of individual symptoms and dimensions as important determinants of course in psychotic illnesses. A similar division of symptom groups could potentially aid further research into the genotypes and endophenotypes of schizophrenia spectrum disorders, and aid us in furthering our understanding of the various processes that drives psychosis manifest. This study also highlights a potential link between hallucinations and suicidality, with insight as a possible mediator. The subgroup of patients with a clinical picture dominated by hallucinations is particularly interesting, and its relation to suicidality needs to be further explored.

PBS (9-11 p.m. ET)
When it premiered last year on PBS, Brideshead set ratings records for public television. In this adaptation of Evelyn Waugh's novel, Jeremy (The French Lieutenant's Woman) Irons stars as Charles Ryder, a painter who becomes infatuated with the world of the Marchmains, an aristocratic family who live at Brideshead Castle. Moving from Oxford to London and Venice, the miniseries beautifully captures the world-weariness of the upper class before World War II. Irons, Anthony Andrews, Laurence Olivier and Claire Bloom lead the strong cast. But the real star is the literate script by John (Rumpole of the Bailey) Mortimer. (Repeat)

Director General of OPCW Ambassador Uzumcu stated that him and Secretary General of the UN Ban Ki-moon have sent three letters to the Syrian administration regarding not to use chemical weapons.
ANKARA -- Director General of the Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW), Ambassador Ahmet Uzumcu stated that him and the Secretary General of the UN Ban Ki-moon have sent three letters to the Syrian administration regarding not to use chemical weapons.
Uzumcu reminded the reports which stated that Syria had developed its system of producing chemical weapons years ago and said, "When we consider the information of open sources, it is reported that approximately Syria has 1,000 tonnes of chemical weapons."
An intergovernmental organization, the OPCW based in The Hague, Holland prohibits the use of chemical weapons and require and trace their destruction. The Director General of OPCW Uzumcu replied to the questions of AA about the allegations on Syria's chemical weapons.
He stressed that there is information pollution on chemical weapon allegations and said that as an organization, they do not have independent information sources.
He said that they receive information from open sources as well and stated, "When we consider the information of open sources, it is reported that approximately Syria has 1,000 tonnes of chemical weapons. There are reports which express that these weapons mostly affect nerves. Reports also state that chemicals are mostly used in cannon balls and as a cap on missiles. There are no possibilities that we can control nor verify these information."
Uzumcu noted that the use of chemical weapons are contrary to law and said that because of the Damascus management accede to 1925 Geneva Convention, they obligate to not to use chemical weapons. Uzumcu said, "If they do possess any, we expect them access to the convention and destruct them under our inspection."
He added that for the destruction of all chemical weapons all around the world, works continue and stated that the U.S. and Russia have the largest chemical weapon stocks.
He expressed, "Destruction of the 90 percent of U.S. stock has been achieved. 70 Percent of Russian stock has been destructed. In the next 5 years, the abolishment of all these stocks will be completed. There is a little bit of them in Iraq and they will be destructed too."

I had the same problem when I was a new grad, and my solution was to go for the smaller, less advertised hospitals such as Triumph, which is now Kindred, Reliant, Nexus, Solara, etc. Don't be afraid to reach out further into the suburbs or even rural. I have an old classmate who managed to break into ER by working out in the middle of nowhere. A long commute will stink, but hopefully it will be temporary. It's not as good as acute hospital experience, but it's a job and you will learn things. When interviewing, show interest in pertinent subjects like rehabilitation and long term antibiotic therapy, and do not tell them if you plan to use them as a stepping stone. Get certified with as many things as you can, and take advantage of what they have to offer.
Good luck.

Samsung Pixon 12 mobile phone
A 12-megapixel camera phone with a Xenon flash and a touch screen
- Good build quality, 12-megapixel camera with Xenon flash, mechanical lens cover, AMOLED display, Wi-Fi, GPS, HSDPA
- No 3.5mm headphone jack, not a smartphone, resistive touch screen, widgets could use some work
Bottom Line
Samsung's Pixon 12 is a great camera phone but lacks in a few other areas. If you're purely after a camera phone then this will do the job, but if you're looking for more of an all-round smartphone, the Pixon 12 fails to deliver.
PriceTBA (AUD)

Described by Samsung as the "world's first 12.1 megapixel camera phone," the Pixon 12 mobile phone was actually beaten in Australia by the launch of the Sony Ericsson Satio. Still not officially released in Australia, the Pixon 12 combines an excellent camera with Samsung's TouchWIZ user interface, but potential buyers may be disappointed that this isn't a smartphone.
The Samsung Pixon 12 actually looks more like a camera than a mobile phone. The rear features a bulging lens with a mechanical lens cover (similar to many dedicated digital cameras) and a Xenon flash. When viewed from the back, the Pixon 12 doesn't look like a mobile phone at all. With this in mind, it's not the most attractive mobile we've reviewed, though it feels sturdy and the metal battery cover is a nice touch. The Pixon 12's design means it feels great when holding it as a camera, and we loved the raised leather grip on the rear — it's a comfortable place for your finger to rest when taking snapshots.
Disappointingly, the Samsung Pixon 12 mobile phone has a resistive touch screen rather than a capacitive one. Nonetheless the AMOLED display is one of the best resistive screens we've used — it's sharp, bright and responsive to touches. Below the display sits a round button that accesses the main menu, and physical answer and end call keys are also present.
The phone's camera boasts a 12-megapixel sensor, a Xenon flash and a wide-angle lens. It also has a "smart auto" setting that automatically selects the scene, mode and settings for the best snapshot. Other features include smile shot, panorama mode and the ability to geotag your photos. We were very impressed with the photos we took; the camera offers excellent colour reproduction and minimal image noise. Detail levels are very impressive for a camera phone and the macro mode in particular produced a sharp focus.
The Pixon 12's Xenon flash works very well in low-light conditions, though it struggles a little in overly dark areas — we found it overexposed light areas in shots. The flash also took a little time to be ready for the next shot, so if you're looking to take two or three photos in quick succession you may become frustrated. The camera doubles as a video recorder and an LED light is included alongside the Xenon flash for this purpose. Video quality is average for a mobile phone and we found it difficult to record smooth footage — its hard to keep a steady hand while moving the phone and filming. There is also no quick way to switch from still shots to video recording — we would have liked a physical key or switch of some description for this function.
The Samsung Pixon 12's camera doesn't feature optical zoom, but it has digital zoom buttons (wide angle and telephoto), a shutter key and a dedicated camera button (which instantly launches the camera application and opens the lens shutter regardless of what part of the Pixon 12's menu you are in). The camera application is zippy and largely free of lag.
The Samsung Pixon 12 mobile phone runs Samsung's proprietary OS and features the TouchWIZ UI, which is also used on the Icon range. The TouchWIZ interface uses a three-page home screen and has a big focus on widgets. A row of widgets sits on the left edge of each screen. To use one you simply drag an icon from the panel to the main area. Each of the three home screen pages is customisable and you can add any widget onto any page. Unfortunately, the widgets' functions aren't labelled in the sidebar, so it's hard to work out what they do without adding them to the screen. The Pixon 12 lacks social-networking apps — the included Facebook, YouTube and MySpace widgets are merely links to the Web page of each service.
You can unlock the Pixon 12 mobile phone by drawing a letter of the alphabet on the screen (Samsung's "smart unlock" feature). You can use different letters to launch apps as the phone unlocks including messaging, music and the Web browser.
We used the Samsung Pixon 12 for several days and were impressed with the speed and responsiveness of its UI. There was no evident lag, applications open and closed swiftly and messaging is also responsive. Samsung offers both a numeric keypad with T9 predictive text input and a full QWERTY keyboard when the Pixon 12 is tilted sideways. The touch-screen keyboard feels a little sluggish compared to the iPhone's, but it's user friendly once you get used to the layout.
The Samsung Pixon 12 mobile phone is marketed mainly on the basis of its imaging credentials but the lack of a 3.5mm headphone jack is still very disappointing. Thankfully, Samsung includes an adapter in the sales package that lets you use standard headphones. The Pixon 12 supports DivX playback, has an FM radio and boasts a handy music recognition application, similar to the iPhone app Shazam and Sony Ericsson's TrackID service.
The Pixon 12 supports Microsoft ActiveSync and features Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and USB connectivity through a standard micro-USB port. For mobile Internet, the Pixon 12's Web browser uses tabbed browsing, loads pages without any issue and is quite responsive, though it doesn't compare to iPhone's excellent Safari browser. Samsung ships the Pixon 12 with a 2GB microSD card.
Australian online store MobiCity is currently selling the Samsung Pixon 12.

Anthony Grifoni
For work use, Microsoft Word and Excel programs pre-installed on the device are adequate for preparing short documents.
Steph Mundell
The Fujitsu LifeBook UH574 allowed for great mobility without being obnoxiously heavy or clunky. Its twelve hours of battery life did not disappoint.
Andrew Mitsi
The screen was particularly good. It is bright and visible from most angles, however heat is an issue, particularly around the Windows button on the front, and on the back where the battery housing is located.
Simon Harriott
My first impression after unboxing the Q702 is that it is a nice looking unit. Styling is somewhat minimalist but very effective. The tablet part, once detached, has a nice weight, and no buttons or switches are located in awkward or intrusive positions.

Italy's RINA Services has responded to the challenges of life extension and new regulatory regimes by completely updating its Rules for the Classification of Fixed Offshore Platforms. The new rules and guidelines will be published in May 2015 and will cover classification, certification and verification of fixed offshore oil and gas platforms.
Andrea Bombardi, Head of the Energy Department, RINA Services, says, "The rules and guidance provide a comprehensive guide to classification, certification and verification. They are a cradle-to-grave framework for the structural and process safety of the entire platform. They build on RINA's experience with offshore platforms in the Mediterranean, Red Sea, Indian and Atlantic oceans and the Caspian Sea. The new rules facilitate life extension, reduce downtime caused by inspection and maintenance and give owners more choices and control over their design, operation and maintenance strategies."
Original design, fabrication, installation, structural assessment, topside process certification, life extension assessment and de-commissioning are all covered.Environmental protection is central to the new rules which have been developed with the aim of significantly reducing the risk of accidents and environmental damage.
Platform designers and operators can choose from and mix three approaches: classification, certification and verification.
Under each of the approaches RINA's rules now allow for Load and Resistance Factor Design (LRFD), a probabilistic approach to structural assessment. International standards incorporated include API RP 2A and the ISO 19900 series.
The rules set out clear guidelines and requirements for assessing fatigue and corrosion issues to determine what must be done to allow platforms to continue to operate beyond their design life. The life extension approach incorporates Risk-Based Inspection (RBI) and risk-based maintenance planning. RBI can provide significant economic benefits for operators by better targeting of inspection and maintenance resources and reduced downtime.
RBI and monitoring and measurement in service are included in the requirements and guidance for topside process certification or verification.
Says Bombardi, "The new rules provide all parties with clear pathways and choices between all the most modern techniques and technology for the design, fabrication, installation, operation, life extension and de-commissioning of offshore fixed platforms."

During the week prior to the Starcraft II launch, performance results started surfacing showing a game easily playable, even with entry-level graphics cards. However, the results also showed ATI cards were not capable of supporting anti-aliasing in the game. This issue just got an answer though as ATI has released the 10.7a beta drivers.
These new beta drivers add support for anti-aliasing in Starcraft II through the ATI Catalyst Control Center, and are supported by all Windows based operating systems from XP to 7.
Additionally, the new drivers increase the performance of Quad CrossFireX configurations when using Eyefintiy. For full details, click on the source, where you can also grab the drivers.

Recent reviews
Good 3.7 /5 from 229 reviews
Bedding was gross. Sheets on both beds were covered in hair. Slept on top of bedding. Bathroom sink and floor were also covered in hair. Carpeted floor was stained and not vacuumed.
Arrived at 11pm room was quiet. Breakfast was good; love the waffle makers hotels are now using.
I will be submitting another review because we stayed here twice during the same trip on different days. This review was favorable to the room we were given. The next review, unfortunately, won't be given the same room scores. This room was comfortable and clean. It could use some updating, but for the price we paid...it was just what we needed and expected. However, the free WiFi connection was spotty in the evening.
Good value. Nice staff. TV needs work though - fuzzy image.
The stay was fine, good breakfast, older facility, but clean and fairly comfortable.

Fire Power is a pump-action water blaster that is shaped like a fire hose, and kids can wear the water storage area like a backpack, making it easy to tote this blaster around. Fire Power holds one liter of water and is supposed to spray water up to 35 feet, but ours only went about eight feet. It has two spray settings, and kids just turn the blue nozzle to go from a single stream of water to multiple water streams. Along with a holster for the blaster on the backpack, the backpack also has adjustable straps.
This firefighter-themed toy is great for inspiring imaginative play for kids who like pretending to be firefighters. The addition of the water blaster also makes this great for outdoor play and adds to the realism of the firefighting play.
Fire Power is for ages 5 and up.
If held upside down, this does leak, so be careful to keep it upright, especially if you're filling it with water indoors.

Steve Lawson
~ Person
British solo bassist Steve Lawson is a musician on a mission. Having twice toured the UK's major theatres and concert halls as the opening act for '80s brit-funk legends Level 42 and ex-King Crimson conglomerate 21st Century Schizoid Band, Steve's musical message of 'the bass, the whole bass and nothing but the bass' has been making serious waves.
Taking his solo bass show to audiences largely made up of people entirely unfamiliar with the notion of real-time looping or Steve's bass-as-orchestra approach to processing his sound ('a one man cosmic symphony' was how aural innovations magazine described it), the response has been amazing, garnering applause and praise from press and public alike.
But for those in the know, this was no surprise. Five albums in, Steve has already built up a substantial worldwide audience, as word about his one-man jam band solo bass shows has spread through the bass and looping communities. Listeners to eclectic music stations across the world visit his website in their thousands to find out more about the distinctly unbass-like sounds they've just heard.
And with the recent release of Grace and Gratitude, his third all-solo album, the buzz about Steve is growing once again. As with Steve's previous two solo albums Ð Not Dancing For Chicken in 2002 & And Nothing But The Bass in 2000 Ð Grace And Gratitude received rave reviews around the world, many writers hailing a brave new voice on the bass.
Having already performed across the USA, France, Italy, Germany and all around the UK over the last 18 months, the future is bright for Steve. Grace And Gratitude ups the ante once again, and continues his musical mission - to take solo bass to a non-bass playing crowd. Says Steve, "While it's great that bass players like what I'm doing, they do have a tendency to listen with their eyes rather than their ears, and judge the music on how complex it looks to perform, rather than how it impacts them as 'pure music'. The recent support tours have given me the chance to really test the water regarding playing solo bass to a non-bass crowd, and I was delighted with the response."
As well as his solo work, Steve regularly collaborates with other musicians, having recorded duet CDs with sax/flautist Theo Travis. and pianist Jez Carr, and played live with American solo bassist Michael Manring, pedal steel maestro BJ Cole, percussionist extraordinaire Orphy Robinson, and his latest project with acclaimed jazz vocalist Cleveland Watkiss.
Recent appearances include two visits to the Edinburgh Fringe Festival (the world's largest arts festival), Greenbelt festival, the Detroit BassFest, European BassDay and numerous solo and collaborative shows around England.
Steve Lawson (born 1972) is a British solo electric bass guitarist and looper.
Based in Birmingham, UK, Lawson also regularly tours in the United States and Europe as a live performer. In addition to his own headline concerts, he has supported both Level 42 and 21st Century Schizoid Band as a solo act, shared bills with other solo performers (such as Michael Manring), worked as a third of the political doom metal band #TORYCORE, and performed and recorded as a duo with his wife, the American singer Lobelia.
A vocal advocate for musicians retaining control over their own work and career, Lawson releases his music exclusively via his own Pillow Mountain label (latterly, through Bandcamp). His releases have included solo works and various duets and trios, all of which feature Lawson's signature technique of live looping (mingling multiple layers of both traditional and unusual sounds generated from bass guitar). He was one of the first three artists on Bandcamp to be offered the opportunity to trial their subscription service
Lawson is highly active and visible on the internet, interacting with fans and other musicians and using web technology such as Twitter to promote his own career and the work of other independent musical acts. In addition to this, he is a music journalist and cultural commentator, regularly contributing to Bassist and Guitarist Magazine (as well as writing for The Independent On Sunday, Third Way Magazine, Bass Player and Bass Guitar Magazine, and frequently publishes essays and hosting discussions on various social media).
Lawson co-hosts a bass guitar forum with Michael Manring at talkbass.com and is a regular contributor to ScottsBassLessons.com and basschat.co.uk. He also teaches bass guitar in Birmingham. He is undertaking a Ph.D looking at how audiences relate to improvised music

I'll be blunt and admit that I'm not a fan of the Halo franchise. I own quite a few of the games, but that's because they were too cheap to pass up! Still, when I heard about the launch party being held at the Experience Music Project in downtown Seattle, I figured I'd partake in the fun to keep myself busy. Of course, the free swag also played a key role in my decision. Here's what I saw...
Walking about a mile from the light rail, I finally reached the unique building housing EMP
I'd arrived about 2.5 hours early, and was roughly one of the first 150 people in line
A sign indicating the party's location
An ODST was the first cosplayer I spotted at the event
From my spot, I couldn't get a good shot of how far the line went
Pizza was provided in tiny quantities, so the majority of the line missed out on the free snacks
The staff started to pass out lanyards
Raffle tickets and posters were also provided as free gifts
A fan with a gift for the Bungie team, which he allowed fans in Halo-related clothing to sign
One of several cameramen who recorded footage of the gathering
A couple of t-shirts and sweatshirts were tossed to the mob
Members of Bungie and 343 Studios made their way around the line to autograph posters
Local radio station 107.7 The End questioned Bungie team members and fans from the line
After a brief delay, we were granted access to EMP and were greeted by folks like Che Chou
People handing out additional lanyards and Noble 6 Xbox Live Avatar helmet codes
Halo: Reach artwork displayed by the entrance
Once inside, you could either attend a Bungie panel about Forge...
...or head up the stairs to the main attraction
Halo memorabilia that could be purchased in the EMP gift shop
No food, but there was plenty of bottled H2O for thirsty gamers
A small lounge where players could test out Reach's campaign
A monitor showing the large hall devoted to Reach's multiplayer elements
Compared to the single player lounge, this area was much more extravagant
A line for Slayer matchmaking
A portion devoted to Forge World
Demo stations showcasing the action of Firefight
I only played Slayer, but I enjoyed testing my FPS mettle against the opposing forces
One of the evening's raffles being conducted on the main stage
Prizes included Halo: Reach controllers, an autographed strategy guide, and various toys
The Forge panel was full, but I snuck a quick shot through the door
No access for little ol' me
Alisa competes in Slayer alongside a new friend
Another Seattle radio station, 99.9 KISW, conducting an interview
When you finished a game, you'd get another raffle ticket, so Slayer was ideal for racking 'em up
Raffle tickets were also used to select competitors for the Firefight tourneys
I would say that this Elite had the best costume at the launch party
UNSC members defending their territory
A fan bearing a Master Chief mask made from a cereal box
Master Chief
I'm pretty sure I photographed this Reach cosplayer while at PAX
Ganging up on the Covenant
A Spartan with a jetpack posing with a fan
Empress Cortana graced the event with her presence
A random shot of the competitive multiplayer
I called it a night around 9 PM since most of the cool raffle prizes were gone
I had bad luck with the raffles, but I made sure that I didn't return home empty-handed

What people say about Belinda
I wish there were more cam girls like Rachel Aldana - big tits model. That being said, there are still plenty of big-breasted ladies that play live for their fans and the fact that they're just amateurs having fun is so hot to me. I could just stare at titties like that for hours on end.
I've made CamsModels into my favorite choice for a JAV porn tube because there are always hordes of Asian ladies online and ready to play. They sit in their pretty bedrooms dressed up in lingerie and cute costumes and when the fun starts they always prove to be so naughty.
There are beautiful teenies sex videos ready to be watched every day at CamsModels because there are literally hundreds of live babes eager to strip for an audience. I want to see a nice tight body in lingerie before the girl gets naked and then I want to watch her fuck a dildo until she cums.
Lately, my favorite kind of porn videos feature webcam girls fucking big toys. I mean the kind that looks bigger than any cock a girl has ever had and that really stretches her out as she's masturbating. I like to see pink pussy lips stretching around the toy as she pushes it deep inside.
You can watch webcam shows as HD mobile porn if you have a phone or tablet and a good internet connection. I've gotten bold and watched in rather public places because it's so much fun and the girls actually like knowing that you're doing it, which was an extra surprise.
This collection of free cams rivals any I've seen online, which might explain why I've been coming back so often to watch the ladies play. I've jumped from blondes to brunettes to redheads and back again because I can't quite decide what I love the most. I love them all!
Webcam sites like this one provide lots of free tube porn for horny browsers to watch in the form of archived shows, but I prefer the live action. I love chatting with a girl, finding out what she's into, and watching as she plays out a fantasy with some good toy fucking.
Webcam girls provide the hottest free amateur porn in the world and they do it just for you, putting on a show of your choosing as you direct the action. Tell her to do a dirty dance for you, masturbate her perfect pussy, or fill her asshole with a dildo while she moans your name like a good girl.

I'm receiving the following message when attempting
to ssh from host hacmp-2 to host hacmp-1 as the
oracle user. Its a two node AIX 5.3 Oracle cluster..
hacmp2# ssh hacmp-1
ssh: hacmp-1: hostname or service name not provided
or found.
As root, there is no problem with the ssh going
between hosts in either direction.
Also, when I use an IP address rather than the
hostname, there is no problem.
Going the reverse, ssh'ing from hacmp-1 to hacmp-2
using root/oracle id's work fine as well.
I've installed the following packages on both hosts
and sshd is up a running. I've created the

Bite into Peruvian and Chinese eats at West Miami's Chifa Du Kang
Bite into Peruvian and Chinese eats at West Miami's Chifa Du Kang
Chifa Du Kang restaurant is decorated with Chinese good luck symbols and paintings of Incan ruins. The modest, family-run spot has two menus, both with Chinese food, but the one offering Peruvian-Chinese dishes is the main attraction.
Chef-owner Jing Quan Du emigrated to Lima from Guangzho, China, almost 30 years ago, and opened his first of many restaurants with the help of his grandfather. When his son finished high school, he moved the family to Miami, and opened Du Kang two years ago, naming it for his ancestral clan (Kang means good health).
The term chifa is from the Cantonese greeting "ni chi fan," meaning "Have you eaten yet?" used by the Chinese laborers who arrived to Lima in the late 19th century to work sugar plantations. They began opening small eateries using local ingredients. Today, soy sauce, fermented black beans, ginger and other Chinese staples are used, but the dishes still reflect their Andean birth.
Soy kao frito brings a platter of deep-fried wonton pouches stuffed with a mixture of shrimp and pork for dipping in lemon juice spiked with cinnamon or hoisin sauce. Min pao are cottony steamed buns filled with juicy barbecue pork. Crusty chicken chicharrones come with cooked, sliced turnip.
Sopa pac pow is a take on egg drop soup with minced mushrooms, shrimp, chicken and scallions. Taypa, which means "lots of food," and is a stir-fry of chicken, roast pork, shrimp, veggies and fried triangles of tofu. Arroz chaufa is fried rice with a choice of protein. Lomo saltado is a sauté of beef strips and french fries, while tallarines are egg noodles with various toppings. There are also Spanish-style tortillas and fried chicken meatballs in oyster sauce.
Sweet purple corn and pineapple pudding ends a meal sweetly rooted in Peru.

-- The computer didn't work, so I had to wait 45 minutes for the rental contract to print.
-- I had originally reserved at Vienna, Illinois, 3 miles from my house. This location was over 30 minutes away.
-- The "fifteen foot truck" only had 12 feet of floor space, so I had to make multiple trips in my private car to get the rest moved.
-- The location had ZERO interest in addressing my concerns once the contract was paid. Horrible, abysmal customer service.
Was after store after hours when I dropped it off. very easy and I have no complaints.
This was supposed to be a 24 hour drop off and when we arrived on Sunday eve. there was no identifying place to drop off the key and invoice. It was in a terrible area of town and there were all sorts of "locals" loiterring around that made it feel very unsafe. I had to call the 24 hour uhaul line to find out where to drop the key and FINALLY after looking it was in a very hidden place that made absolutely no sense at all!!!
The folks at this location were nice enough but were not as friendly as I felt they could have been. It was not a bad experience just not as warm and friendly as the folks at the Beltline location.

2 Sheriff's deputies gunned down in Louisiana
Two sheriff's deputies died and two others were wounded in a shootout near New Orleans, and so far five suspects have been arrested.
The two deputies were "ambushed" by an armed man with an assault rifle as they were walking across a parking lot in an industrial part of the town of Laplace to investigate an earlier shooting, the sheriff of St. John the Baptist Parish, Michael Tregre, said.
One of wounded deputies was badly hurt, but authorities say they are not in mortal danger.
Ecuador grants asylum to Julian Assange
Ecuador granted asylum to Julian Assange, holed up since late June at the Andean nation's embassy in London, and said it expected the British government to allow the WikiLeaks founder to travel to Quito.
The Australian citizen sought refuge at the Ecuadorian mission after losing a long battle in the British courts to avoid extradition to Sweden for questioning on allegations of sexual misconduct.
Assange, who denies the accusations, fears that once he is in Swedish custody, U.S. prosecutors will indict him for espionage and Washington will pressure Stockholm into handing him over.
Ecuador's decision rests on international law and was motivated by fear that Assange's life would be at risk if he were ultimately sent to the United States, Foreign Minister Ricardo Patiño told a press conference in Quito.
Politicians and pundits in the United States called for Assange to be prosecuted - or even assassinated - after WikiLeaks disseminated thousands of U.S. diplomatic cables as well as a video that showed an American military helicopter crew killing a Reuters photographer and several other civilians in Iraq.
Evidence available to the Ecuadorian government indicates that if Assange were extradited to the United States, "he would not receive a fair trial, he could be tried by special or military courts," Patiño said Thursday.
Cuba charges Spaniard for dissidents' deaths in crash
Cuban prosecutors are asking for seven years in prison for negligent homicide for the visiting Spaniard who was behind the wheel for the car crash that killed prominent dissident Oswaldo Paya and a colleague, sources closes to the case told Efe.
Angel Carromero, leader of a youth group in Spain's governing Popular Party, has been in custody since the July 22 accident.
The next step could be setting a date for the court hearing, which probably will be held in the eastern city of Bayamo in late August or early September, the sources said.
The Spaniard, Swedish citizen Jens Aron Modig, Paya and fellow dissident Harold Cepero were on their way from the Cuban capital to the eastern city of Santiago de Cuba in a rented car when the accident happened.
Arizona blasted for denying licenses to Deferred Action recipients
Arizona Gov. Jan Brewer's decision to deny driver's licenses to young undocumented immigrants who qualify for Deferred Action has drawn criticism from the ACLU, which says the move shows a failure to grasp the subtleties of immigration law.
"We think the governor is mistaken with respect to the driver's licenses. This is an example of why states shouldn't get involved in immigration law because they don't have an understanding of the complexity of these types of laws," Alessandra Soler, executive director of the American Civil Liberties Union of Arizona, told Efe Thursday.
Brewer on Wednesday signed a directive ordering state agencies to take immediate measures to prevent Deferred Action applicants from gaining access to Arizona driver's licenses, identification cards and other public benefits.
5 Soldiers die in firefight in Peru
Five soldiers were killed and five others wounded in a firefight with an armed group near the Mazangaro base in the central Peruvian region of Junin, the Armed Forces Joint Command said.
Patrols from the 2nd Infantry Brigade encountered "terrorist criminals" on Wednesday night in Pangoa, a district in Satipo province, the joint command said in a statement.
Four sergeants and a corporal were killed, while four other sergeants and another non-commissioned officer were wounded.
This is the second attack by guerrillas in less than a week on the Mazangaro base.
Colombian president says rebels want to kill him
Colombian President Juan Manuel Santos disclosed a purported internal FARC rebel group message in which a high-ranking guerrilla commander orders his comrades to kill the head of state "by whatever means."
Santos unveiled the message during a meeting with Nasa Indians on the La Maria reservation in the southwestern province of Cauca, hours after receiving the news from Defense Minister Juan Carlos Pinzon.
The message was sent in the form of an e-mail to a leader of the Northeastern Bloc of the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia, or FARC.
Nadal's coach says goal is "full recovery"
Rafael Nadal's uncle and coach told Television Española that the Spanish tennis great is focused on making "a full recovery" from a nagging knee injury after withdrawing from the U.S. Open.
"After Wimbledon, we decided to rest a few days and then move on to strengthening the quadriceps but that's was a struggle," Toni Nadal said in explaining his nephew's decision to withdraw in succession from the London Olympics and then from two ATP World Tour Masters 1000 events in Toronto and Cincinnati.
"Later we managed to strengthen a bit, but at the end of the training sessions that pain continued and the recovery was not sufficient to deal with a competition as tough as the U.S. Open and the rest of the season," the coach said in the phone interview with TVE, alluding to that Grand Slam event's unforgiving hard-court surface.
Chilean police storm occupied schools, arrest 139
Police arrested 139 people here as they forcibly evicted students occupying several high schools to demand improvements to Chile's underfunded public education system, authorities said.
The evictions at Dario Salas, Miguel de Cervantes and Confederacion Suiza high schools were carried out on the order of Santiago Mayor Pablo Zalaquett.
A fourth school included in the mayor's order, Barros Borgoño, remained under student occupation at midday.
Riot police backed by water cannon burst into the Salas and De Cervantes schools a little after 5:00 a.m., arresting 41 students at the first school and 38 at the second.
The operation at Confederacion Suiza brought the arrest total to 139, including seven adults, police Col. Victor Tapia told reporters.
The minors will be released to their parents once police confirm their identities, the colonel said.

Hi there.
Did you have a nice weekend? Overall, I did too. However, Saturday was rough. How rough? On a scale of 1-10, it was Chuck E. Cheese.
Sunday improved. Mildly.
But, now I'm in a coffee shop, sans kids, sans ball pits, costumed rats, and shopping carts. Instead, I'm nicely caffeinated, listening to a Spotify playlist of Rolling Stone's 100 Greatest Hip Hop Songs of All Time, wondering how House of Pain's Jump Around didn't make the list and punching out a blog post on age discrimination to you fine folks.

Publication of New Revenue Recognition Standard Just the Beginning, says KPMG
The International Accounting Standards Board and the U.S. Financial Accounting Standards Board today published a new joint standard on revenue recognition. This replaces most of the detailed guidance on revenue recognition that currently exists under U.S. GAAP and IFRS.
Simon Nicholas, Director at KPMG Isle of Man, commented: "Publishing a joint standard on revenue recognition is a major achievement for the standard setters, but for companies the real work is just beginning."
The new standard comes over five years after the standard setters published the first version of their joint revenue proposals. Mr Nicholas continued: "The long project timescales have caused many companies to postpone thinking about how they will be impacted. It's natural that some have taken a 'believe it when I see it' approach to news that accounting requirements are about to change. But now it's here, we have a new standard on one of the most important financial reporting metrics – revenue – and it will apply to almost all companies reporting under IFRS and U.S. GAAP."
The new requirements will affect different companies in different ways. Mr Nicholas explained: "Companies that sell products and services in a bundle, or those engaged in major projects – for example, in the telecom, software, engineering, construction and real estate industries – could see significant changes to the timing of revenue recognition. For others, it will be more a case of 'business as usual'. All Isle of Man companies need to assess the extent of the impact so that they can address the wider business implications, including communications with investors and analysts."
Some aspects of the new standard will affect all companies. Mr Nicholas continued: "The new disclosure requirements are extensive and might require changes to systems and processes to collect the necessary data – even if there is no change to the headline numbers in the financial statements."
The new standard takes effect in January 2017, although IFRS preparers can choose to apply it earlier. Jamil Khatri, KPMG's global head of Accounting Advisory Services, concluded: "While the effective date may seem a long way off, decisions need to be made soon – namely, when and how to transition to the new standard. An early decision will allow companies to develop an efficient implementation plan and inform their key stakeholders."

This is so quick and easy! Done on the stove top and all in one pan, gotta love that. After starting I discovered that I was far short of the 3 cups of noodles so I just broke up some linguini to make 2 cups and that worked out ok. It might have been the pasta I used but it sure sucked up the liquid quickly. I believe that next time I'll add in a can of mushrooms with the liquid included. Thanks Mersaydees, this is a good one for a night when you don't have the time for a lot of prep or just don't want to fuss. :D
