Objective: In patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), hydroxychloroquine prevents disease flares and damage accrual and facilitates the response to mycophenolate mofetil in those with renal involvement. A study was undertaken to determine whether hydroxychloroquine also exerts a protective effect on survival.
Methods: Patients with SLE from the multiethnic LUMINA (LUpus in MInorities: NAture vs nurture) cohort were studied. A case-control study was performed within the context of this cohort in which deceased patients (cases) were matched for disease duration (within 6 months) with alive patients (controls) in a proportion of 3:1. Survival was the outcome of interest. Propensity scores were derived by logistic regression to adjust for confounding by indication as patients with SLE with milder disease manifestations are more likely to be prescribed hydroxychloroquine. A conditional logistic regression model was used to estimate the risk of death and hydroxychloroquine use with and without the propensity score as the adjustment variable.
Results: There were 608 patients, of whom 61 had died (cases). Hydroxychloroquine had a protective effect on survival (OR 0.128 (95% CI 0.054 to 0.301 for hydroxychloroquine alone and OR 0.319 (95% CI 0.118 to 0.864) after adding the propensity score). As expected, the propensity score itself was also protective.
Conclusions: Hydroxychloroquine, which overall is well tolerated by patients with SLE, has a protective effect on survival which is evident even after taking into consideration the factors associated with treatment decisions. This information is of importance to all clinicians involved in the care of patients with SLE.

IP&TV News talks to Sara Oueslati, Orange's Content Delivery Product Manager, about Orange's present and future involvement in OTT and CDNs.
IP&TV News: What distinguishes Orange's CDN technology?
Sara Oueslati: Orange is running the Akamai Aura Lumen CDN technology, offering the possibility of running CDN and Transparent Caching services over a single platform. Orange CDN strategy is primarily geared towards boosting Orange affiliates' service profitability (e.g., OTT TV offers) and Enterprise business. Customization and integration requirements reinforce the Group's decision to go for a licensed CDN technology that is run (except in France and Poland) by a unique operational entity, thus concentrating all required skills and expertise and rationalizing resources and costs.
What are Orange's ambitions in this area?
Orange international CDN activities primarily aims at promoting CDN technology across the group, as an enabler for enhancing Orange services and fostering revenue growth opportunities (e.g. with local content or cloud services providers). Competing with major CDN providers is not the Group's priority. Rather, Orange is seeking to establish partnerships with major CDN providers, involving CDN business and technology synergies. As part of this strategy, CDN caches are rolled out in Orange affiliates' networks and a new wholesale offer was recently launched "Orange Regional Content Delivery" (ORCD), aiming at developing on-net delivery business deals with major CDN providers on Orange's footprint (32 countries, with a strong presence in Europe and Africa).
Beyond "bulky" video content delivery services, which definitely make sense from a telco perspective, Orange is also seeking to enrich its CDN technology with value added services such as acceleration features, notably for 3G and 4G mobile end-users (Orange has over 180 million mobile subscribers across the world). Options are under study at this juncture.
On the enterprise business segment side, the strategic alliance signed with Akamai in July 2013 perfectly positions OBS (Orange Business Services) for delivering advanced content services to Enterprise customers in France (e.g., web & app acceleration). Yet, it is also our ambition to support such services over the CDN we are running on Orange international footprint.
And what about Orange's OTT projects in Europe? What were these and how well were they received?
Orange Spain Over-The-Top TV service launched in September 2013 proved a great success! Sales expectations exceeded the target set for end of 2013. More importantly, the service boosted Orange Spain full convergent quadruple-play offer and new subscribers' acquisition. In Spain, where pay-TV has a strong potential, a key differentiator has been to offer a full featured TV and On-Demand service not only for the big TV screen in homes but also on the whole range of connected devices such as PC, smart phones, tablets (and more to come), making the service available everywhere, at home or on the move.
How has Orange resolved QoS issues relative to OTT content delivery?
Orange operates a tier-1 international backbone, hence QoS issues relative to OTT content delivery are addressed whenever possible through peering agreements with major content providers and other transit peers. With the acquisition of a versatile CDN technology, the group also considered for a while the alternative solution of Transparent Caching for offering a satisfactory and stable QoS to customers. However, with the recently observed rise in https, this option is less and less considered. Instead, OTT traffic (video, software updates, etc) regional delivery business deals with major third-party CDN providers are sought. They imply a simplified form of CDN interconnection, allowing content to be delivered as close as necessary to end users, bypassing thereby IP free peering potential congestion issues.
What further opportunities does Orange see in OTT?
OTT services bring new revenue growth opportunities. For OTT live services such as the one launched by Orange Spain, relying on a CDN, instead of traditional network- adherent technical solutions, has been a pioneering experience within the Group showing the way TV and video services can be more easily delivered in regard to network constraints and device versatility. This success is fuelling many other similar initiatives in European and African Orange affiliates. On the wholesale business segment, OTT traffic termination on behalf of third party CDN providers is seen as another promising opportunity.
Sara Oueslati will appear at this year's CDN World Summit (collocated with the TV in the Cloud Summit), 1-2 October, 2014, London. For booking and more info go here.

I checked into the Walmart site originally to check for the local discounts in my area and was so surprised to find out this site features so much more than just a store. My favorite area is the free samples section where you can try new products they are promoting as well as find out about store events to try new things. The weekly ads are posted to the site so you can look up the deals in your area as well as find locations. They have great prices, but many times I have looked in store for items and they are gone. Shipping is an extra charge, but you do have the option to ship to store which is convenient if you live near a store and cuts shipping charges. You can order movies and television shows to download on the site and I tried and it is pretty good. They cost a few dollars but you never have to leave your computer. You can also upload your photos and order prints which is easy and convenient. This site is well organized and once in a while you can find some great deals. I really love the fact that you can shop online and pick up your items easily in the store.

There was a time, not so long ago, when I would choose Walmart other all other similar stores, given a choice. Their prices tend to be lower, sometimes significantly, than competitors, which is key in my life. However, a recent incident with them has caused me to re-evaluate where I shop.About two months ago I made a purchase on Walmart.com. It was a gift for my sister, who lives on the opposite side of the country and I made sure to mark it as such, complete with a card and note. The item, a day-by-day Harry Potter 2008 calender, was on pre-order, set to be delivered "on or near Oct. 28." On October 30th, I received an email from Walmart.com notifying me they were having complications shipping the item. If I wished to cancel, they told me, I could. Otherwise they would continue to try shipping the item for the next 10 days. If they were unsuccessful then they would cancel my order themselves, and sorry for any inconvenience.I immediately went to the website, trying to cancel the order. After much time spent searching Walmart.com I came upon their order cancellation policy. They simply do not allow it. I contacted their customer service department with my request for the order to be canceled. I received no acknowledgment whatsoever. I repeated my request to their customer service department twice more, with the same results as the first request.Eleven days after I received the email telling me of their shipping problem, I checked the status of my order. It was still pending. I again contacted the customer service department, reminding them that they had promised to cancel after 10 days. I received a response the next day letting me know my order had been canceled and I would not be charged.Three days later, I received another email from Walmart.com. My order had shipped, thank you very much, have a nice day. After contacting Walmart.com and reminding them that the order had been canceled, I was told that I was welcome to return the item once it was recieved. Apparently they had not noticed that the order was a gift and that the shipping address was on the opposite side of the country as the billing address.

Comments about Walmart.com:
Terrible online service while making a purchase. I purched a Timex watch, And it constant ly said that
Comments about Walmart.com:
I have purchased three convertor boxes in the past two years and the Ematic is the best one yet...love all the features.
Comments about Walmart.com:
We live in a small town about an hour and a quarter from the nearest Walmart. We also have three young children, so it is quite hectic when we actually get to a Walmart store. Needless to say, being able to shop on Walmart.com from the comfort of our living room couch is one of the most amazing technological advancements in the history of mankind. The site is easy to navigate, and we can very easily find what we are looking for. The one downside to shopping online is that many things are only available in store. The site will list them and tell you if they are available at a particular Walmart, but you cannot order them online. But prices online are pretty comparable to in stores, and you can get free shipping on orders over $50 (which isn't hard to do when stocking up on things). Shipping is also fast (we do have a distribution center relatively close to where we live though, and some friends have said it takes longer for their orders to arrive). Items purchased online can be returned in stores, but you need to have a receipt with you. They will give you a hard time if you don't bring the particular receipt that is given on the website.
Comments about Walmart.com:
Walmart.com is probably one of the most disappointing e-commerce retailers I have ever encountered. Their customer service is terrible and I just don't have one good thing to say about them. The Walmart store claims to price match - except with their website. WHO does that?
A year or so ago around Black Friday - Walmart.com experienced a glitch with their pricing, making it so that dozens of items appeared much, much lower than they normally should have been. I was able to order a few of these items at the hugely discounted price, only to have my orders canceled later. This is fine, I understand that mistakes happen, but when I called Walmart.com customer service just to confirm that my card would not be charged for these cancelled orders, I was informed that SOME of the people's orders were actually honored at those prices. Not everyone, but some people did actually get those deals. I was then told basically it was luck of the draw, there was nothing he could do about it and hung up. Extremely rude, unprofessional, and I refuse to shop with Walmart.com again.
Comments about Walmart.com:
Ordered 8 packages of Sparkling Grape Juice (12 bottles in a package) on 07/08/15 (Order # 4601555-872087). Need it for a Wedding on 07/18/15. Received only 4 packages on 07/11/15. Called Walmart.com on same day, 07/11/15, and went through a poor automated phone system, which indicated there is no order associated with my phone #, however my Walmart.com account shows my phone # is associated with the order #. Prompted to Enter order #, but nothing happened, kept asking me to enter order #. Finally got through to a rep without entering order #. Rep was able to process a new order, but instead of putting it all under 1 order #, rep split it into 2 orders (Order # 2677169-588849 & 2677170-413312). 07/14/15, checked Walmart.com account. It shows that orders are in the "processing" phase. Checked my email, no updates from Walmart.com. Called poor automated phone system again and went through same issues the first time. Informed Rep of the "processing" phase. Rep indicated that it has been shipped. Asked Rep to provide tracking or confirmation # on what he told me. Rep put me on hold, came back and states there is no such number at this time. Informed me that he is going based on estimated delivery date of 07/15/15. Rep informed me to wait until after 07/15/15 to find out what the issue is. 07/15/15 came and went, no product received. 07/16/15, received email indicating order has been delayed. Called Walmart.com, went through automated phone system, however this time, it was able to associate my phone # with the order #. Still had to provide both order # to the Rep again. Had to cancel order because there is no way to know at this point if products will be delivered on time for the Wedding on 07/18/15. Rep states cancellation is completed, but will have to wait 24 hours to receive confirmation through email. Rep states money will be refunded in 48 hours, however, my overall experience with Walmart.com gives me doubt that a refund will go smoothly. Only time will tell. Will check email and bank account in 48 hours to see if refund has been issued, as the Rep indicated. All issues could have been avoided if all products were received the first time around.
Comments about Walmart.com:
I ordered a computer from Walmart.com about four months ago in February. I paid for it on the 17th of February and received it on the 2nd of March. Now four months later Walmart clames that I didn't pay for it. Yet my bank statement says otherwise. They overdrafted my account by a substantial amount. They bounce me from department to department trying to resolve the issue but nothing is .now my bank account is frozen and I will not have a paycheck on Friday so I can't pay my bills.
Comments about Walmart.com:
I started shopping at Walmart 15 or 20 years ago when I found out they are not unionized. The checkout clerks are friendly, the prices are excellent and, unlike many other large grocery stores you have a choice of several brand names in each item. At Kroger and Meijers you can by one other brand in an odd size or their own store brand. I am pro-choice when it comes to groceries!
Comments about Walmart.com:
VERY POOR SERVICE and PHONE BREAKS DOWN ,And FAMILY MOBILE ARGUES AND GIVES YOU A RUN AROUND TO FIX IT , THE PHONE WOULD BE NICE IF IT DIDNT BREAK DOWN ,ITS MADE IN CHINA AND SUPPORTS REV CRAPTON ,SO ITS NOT AMERICAN ,DONT BUY THIS PHONE OR DEAL WITH THIS COMPANY , SAVE YOURSELF ALOT OF AGGRAVATION DONT BUY WALMART FAMILY MOBILE .
Comments about Walmart.com:
I went to my local WalMart Super Canter in Kerrville, TX last Saturday, where I always find good prices and nice variety of merchandise. After gathering my goods, I went to the checkout line. Only 3 lanes were opened in the entire store! Well, the self-services lanes were opened too, but the line of customers waiting there stretched almost into the vegetable aisle. 50-60 customers at least, waiting in line to pay for their selections. I left my filled buggy at customer service and walked out. Down at the local HEB, nine checkout lanes were opened. They had the same products, similar pricing and available cashiers. What good are lower prices and nice variety if shoppers can't check out in a reasonable amount of time? From now on, HEB will be my first choice. I'll go to WalMart when no one else in town carries the item and I have the afternoon to spend waiting in a checkout line with other disgruntled customers.
Comments about Walmart.com:
I ordered ten photo books as holiday gifts for my family. They printed and shipped only one of the books. Rather than making it right and printing and shipping the remaining books, they cancelled and refunded the remaining part of the order (but kept the money for the book they sent). Now I have no gift for my family and insufficient time to recreate, reprint, and resend books before Christmas. Walmart is truly the Grinch that stole Christmas. Awful.

As soon as the Cowboys traded their first and second round picks to move up and select Morris Claiborne, it became immediately obvious that the they were likely to try to trade Mike Jenkins. Jenkins is in the final year of his rookie contract, and had publicly expressed interest in getting a long term deal done. The Cowboys responded by basically outright saying that a contract extension for Jenkins wasn't in their plans. A quick breakdown of Jenkins:
- Up and down career. Very down in 2010. One of the worst CB's in the NFL that season, and became somewhat of a target after basically letting James Jones walk into the end zone without attempting a tackle in a blowout against the Packers. It was the second time he had done something of that nature.
- Rebounded a bit in 2011. Played much better than he had in 2010, and showed a little more toughness by playing through a shoulder injury.
- 27 years old.
- As mentioned already, he'll be an unrestricted free agent in 2013. Only making $1.052 million in 2012.
- Not a play maker. 5 picks in 2009, 1 in each of his other 3 seasons as a pro. (8 in 4 years). 1 FF for his career, no FR, no sacks.
- Has only missed 6 games in his career, but has a history of being dinged up.
Some team out there might see potential, and take a flier on him. I think a 6 is realistic, and the Cowboys would be thrilled with a 5.

A striking architectural image that would make an ideal gift for those who love the hustle and bustle of city life.
I took this shot on a winter's morning, just as I was leaving London Bridge station. This building sits alongside The Shard and is now known as The News Building. It was an overcast morning threatening rain but I loved the way the cool blue and purple tones in the sky reflected in the glass exterior. Definitely worth stopping to capture the moment. Shortly after, the heavens opened and it chucked it down with rain!

- gvectorize: Vectorization of Adjacency Matrices
Vectorization of Adjacency Matrices
gvectorize takes an input graph set and converts it into a corresponding number of vectors by row concatenation.
gvectorize(mats, mode="digraph", diag=FALSE, censor.as.na=TRUE)
one or more input graphs.
"digraph" if data is taken to be directed, else "graph".
boolean indicating whether diagonal entries (loops) are taken to contain meaningful data.
The output of
gvectorize is a matrix in which each column corresponds to an input graph, and each row corresponds to an edge. The columns of the output matrix are formed by simple row-concatenation of the original adjacency matrices, possibly after removing cells which are not meaningful (if
censor.as.na==FALSE). This is useful when preprocessing edge sets for use with
glm or the like.
An nxk matrix, where n is the number of arcs and k is the number of graphs; if
censor.as.na==FALSE, n will be reflect the relevant number of uncensored arcs.

If there was one artist I could collect
If there was one artist in the region I could collect (and I can't, our ethics policy prohibits it), I think it'd be be T. L. Solien. He is most certainly one of Wisconsin's most provocative painters.
His works, which join personal narratives and literary references in a playful surrealism, are represented in Milwaukee by the Tory Folliard Gallery. One of his works was also recently purchased by the Milwaukee Art Museum.
A show of paintings, prints and works on paper by the Madison-based artist goes on view at the Madison Museum of Contemporary Art, 227 State St., Madison, on Saturday.

Suspension rate of Black males in TDSB schools troubling
By BARRINGTON A. MORRISON
The alarmingly high suspension rates of Black males and their disproportionate placement in special education programs has been and continues to be a crisis in the Toronto District School Board (TDSB). The jaw-dropping statistics published by the Toronto Star on Friday, March 22 on suspension by race and the demographic snapshot shows the ominous array of hardship that besets this disadvantaged group.
As a Black male special education teacher with 15 years of experience teaching students with exceptionalities, particularly those classified as Learning Disabled (LD) and Mild Intellectual Disability (MID), I have had a front row seat in observing, evaluating, assessing and instructing hundreds of students, specifically Black males, whose faltering and suffering in the education system has impeded their education and created a toxic environment in which the Black male is seen as a bête noire to be feared and despised.
The teaching of these young Black males in special education classes has left a firm imprint on me as a Black man. My empathy for these boys not only stems from consanguinity, but also as a professional in the field I am deeply embarrassed. My constant interactions with these young boys and their parents in the social and emotional context of schooling offers an important and intellectually exciting challenge as I observe the ubiquitous issue of race and gender in all its complexity within various school environments.
My observation and reading of the research in education tells me that Black males' referral to special education are not necessarily based on academic deficits, but on non-academic factors that are highly subjective and ambiguous. The intersections of race, gender and cultural biases remain significant in the referral to and placement of Black males in special education.
Teachers' perceptions of Black male students influence what conclusions are often drawn about their gender and behaviour. For example, when the same behaviours by Blacks and Whites are differently evaluated, Blackness is relegated to deviance and Whiteness is normalized.
In Bad Boys: Public Schools in the Making of Black Masculinity, A.A. Ferguson posits: "Whereas teachers attributed the misbehaviour of White boys to boys being boys and sought to edify them, they pathologies the misbehaviour of Black boys and sought to punish them".
This has resulted in the alarmingly high suspension rates in the TDSB.
The marginalization of Black male students in the school system and their lack of exposure to rigorous instruction, post-secondary opportunities and accessibility to general education can produce devastating results for these boys, their families and the community. Among these are high dropout rates, suspension and referral to special education, drug addiction, mental health problems and the irresistible possibility of being sucked into the vortex of the school-to-prison pipeline.
The nature and scope of the problem surrounding the suspension and disproportionate placement of Black males in special education programs, particularly in the urban schools, is deeply rooted in a society with a history of overt and covert racial discrimination. The persistent state of Black males in special education programs seems to suggest that racism and bias in schools have been operating in very subtle and insidious ways.
The good news from my review of the literature on education is that it's possible to successfully educate all students, including Black males, to their fullest potential, thereby mitigating the factors responsible for their disproportionate representation in special education. The fact that some schools manage to do so already is evidence that there exist a possibility of altering the life-chances of these young Black males.
The schools control enough of the variables necessary for all students to master the Ontario Curriculum Expectations. The late African-American Harvard Professor, Ron Edmonds, stated with unabashed aplomb:
"We can, whenever and wherever we choose, successfully teach all children whose schooling is of interest to us. We already know more than we need to do that. Whether or not we do it must finally depend on how we feel about the fact that we haven't so far."

Local man aiding hockey-hungry troops
A local man is attempting to boost the morale of our soldiers serving abroad through hockey.
Ken Blake already has shipped several boxes of hockey paraphernalia to troops in Afghanistan, including hardcore Ducks fan Paul McNeill, a Chief Warrant Officer in the U.S. Army whose story can be found by clicking here.
Blake and McNeill originally connected through Facebook. For more information on Blake or to help his cause, visit his Web site at www.slapshotfan.com and click on the picture of the San Jose Sharks goodies. It will redirect you to a page featuring photos of the items others have donated.
"I don't refuse any offer of a donation," Blake wrote in an email to the Register. "It is my hope that even if the items are from different teams than the guys may like, or if the guys over there can't use the items for anything, at least they can hopefully be given to the children in the area to put a smile on their face."

Anybody know where I can get something like this ?
Hi there
I want to know if anybody know where i can get a program like the FAQ one on this website. http://wwwtoolz.com/home/
I like the way it deals with things but find this companys scripts are full of bugs.
If you can create such a program for free would be nice but if it costs, (not a lot) I may consider paying for it.
It must have all the facilities this one has, as I said I do like what it does and how it does it, I dislike the bugs and slowness of it though.
I look forward to your thoughts on this.
PS: If this is in the wrong forum please PM me or if the MOD can move it to the revelant one please let me know where it has been moved too.

| Their love never died, but her secrets could break his trust beyond repair.Texas Montgomery Mavericks, Book 1After six years and too much self-recrimination, rancher Mitch Landry is ready to admit he was wrong. He'd loved Olivia Montgomery but commitment wasn't high on his list back then. That was his first mistake. He's just divorced his second, and he's set to do whatever it takes to convince Olivia to give him another try.Through hard work, determination and more than a few tears, Olivia survived the break-up with Mitch. She's rebuilt her life around her business and the son she loves more than life itself. She's not proud of the mistakes she's made—particularly the secrets she's kept—but when life hands you manure, you use it to make something better of yourself...lest you get stuck in it.At a hot, muggy Dallas wedding, they reconnect.

The name originally referred only to the average color of the French mole, but beginning in the 1940s, its usage expanded to encompass a wider range of shades.
