LOGAN, Utah - Overview Time to pack the bags, again. Head coach Heather Cairns and the Utah State soccer team are moving to their third conference since their first season in 1996 after spending nine years in the Big West Conference and eight in the Western Athletic Conference. In its final season in the WAC, Utah State won its second-straight WAC Tournament title and made its second appearance in the NCAA Tournament in as many seasons. The Aggies topped off the year producing five all-WAC honorees.

Utah State Battles to 1-1 Double Overtime Draw With Creighton Friday
Junior midfielder Jennifer Flynn scored the equalizer in the 32nd minute as the Utah State soccer squad tied Creighton 1-1 in double overtime Friday at Morrison Stadium in Omaha, Neb.
2013 Utah State Soccer Preview
Having won four WAC regular-season titles in the last five years, the 2013 Utah State squad makes the dramatic shift to the Mountain West Conference, where the Aggies will see many familiar foes and some very new opponents.
After going 13-3-6 last season with a 6-0-2 WAC record, the Aggies will now take on the strenuous 10-match Mountain West schedule. This season, Utah State was picked to finish tied for third with UNLV in the MW Preseason Coaches' Poll behind San Diego State and New Mexico.
This is the Aggies' first season in the Mountain West after eight in the WAC. The MW will play a grueling 10-match schedule, beginning on Oct. 4. The top eight teams will travel to Albuquerque, N.M. for the Mountain West Tournament, which will be held on the campus of New Mexico from Nov. 4-9.
"I think that we have a fantastic schedule this year, in particular the home games in being able to host Nebraska (Sept. 2) and, Arkansas (Sept. 13), teams from traditionally great soccer conferences and teams that are on the rise and do well in their conference," Cairns said. "We also have the traditional match against Utah (Sept. 20) from the Pac-12, so we have a couple games against teams in the power conferences. I think that is what we need to do. We know that the Mountain West is going to be a step up in competition from head to toe, so being able to go through those games in the non-conference portion of our season is really going to help prepare us for the daily grind in the Mountain West."
The Aggies will play three teams from the Beehive State and one border foe this year. USU will host Utah Valley (Aug. 30) and Weber State (Sept. 22), while traveling to Utah. The Aggies will also travel to Pocatello, Idaho to take on border-foe Idaho State (Sept. 7).
Notes - The Aggies will play several teams that finished in the top of their conferences last season, including San Diego State (First, Mountain West), Utah Valley (First, Great West Conference), Cal State Fullerton (First, Big West Conference) and Idaho State (First, Big Sky Conference). Creighton also was among the top (Second, Missouri Valley Conference).
- This season, Utah State will be looking to replace defender Natalie Norris, who won an unprecedented three-straight WAC Defensive Player of the Year honors. She was one of five Aggies to earn all-WAC honors last season.
Forwards Utah State will bring back the bulk of its firepower, as 22 of its 33 goals return from last season. Senior forward Jennifer Flynn returns as the Aggies' leading scorer from last season with seven goals and two assists for 16 points. Fellow senior Mari Miyashiro was tied for second in scoring with four goals and a career-high six assists last year. USU will have to replace Jade Tarver who had 14 points, as well as Norris who had eight points in 2012.
Notes - Last season, the Aggie offense scored 33 goals compared to 13 by its opponents. This season, both Flynn and Miyashiro will move up top to take on the role as strikers, as both were attacking midfielders in 2012.
- Seniors Flynn and Miyashiro are both returning all-WAC honorees. Miyashiro was named to the first team, while Flynn was named to the second team and was a WAC all-tournament selection. Both players have floated back and forth between the midfield and the forward positions during their time at Utah State.
Midfielders The Utah State midfield brings back two starters in senior Jackie Tillotson-Clark and junior Lexie Morgan. Sophomore Maris Hamblin and senior Shay Haddow both logged significant minutes last season.
Notes - While the midfielders are an experienced group, there will be some changes in personnel. Junior Lexie Morgan will be one of the constants in the midfield, showing very strong leadership. With Miyashiro and Flynn moving to the forward position, there will be room for some Aggie newcomers to make an impact.
- The midfield welcomes Jayne Robison from nearby Layton, Utah. She has stood out as an upcoming attacking midfielder. She has shown creativity in the attack.
Defenders Once again, Cairns looks to the Aggie backfield to continue its historic stance of being a stingy defense. Last season, USU allowed only 13 goals for a stellar 0.55 goals against average.
Notes - Despite losing Norris, the blue and white backfield is very experienced with three starters back in junior Taryn Rose, sophomore Lexie Henrie and senior Jessica Hoskin-Killpack. Sophomore Sarah Lorscheider also saw time in the USU defense in 2012.
- Rose is the only returning all-WAC defender. She was also the WAC's 2011 Freshman of the Year.
Goalkeepers Utah State has had a fantastic string of stingy goalkeepers, including current assistant coach Molli Merrill. Sophomore Jeannie Woller looks to continue that stretch.
Notes - After the graduation of all-WAC goalkeeper Ashlyn Mulford, Woller will be looked to take the reigns in net. Woller's strongest match of the season was a 110-minute shutout against Denver on Sept. 30. She ended her freshman campaign, logging nearly 400 minutes with 0.45 GAA.
- The Aggies have three other netminders that will join Woller in the goalkeeping corps made up of a trio of freshmen in Sara Cobb, McKayla Johnstone and Kaitlyn Stratton.

DCCC Chairman Steve Israel on CNN's State of the Union - March 3, 2013
Crowley: Joining me now, Congressman Steve Israel head of the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee and Congressman Greg Walden, he chairs the National Republican Congressional Committee. Thank you both for being here on your debut here for us and together. So it's very nice to have you. So we sort of laid out mathematically how the vast majority of Republicans and Democrats in the House were elected by big margins in today's terms: 55 percent or more. So realistically speaking, you all are never going to be able to find big legislation you're going to agree on in a bipartisan manner. Republicans can shove it through but you're never going to be able to agree, are you?
Walden: I don't think that's true. Look, we'll have competitive races. When the race is over we should get together and try to solve America's problems.
Crowley: They're realistic ideas, but it doesn't happen.
Walden: But it's a bicameral process. So when we pass something in the House, doesn't mean Senate has to takes it up exactly the way we pass it. Have them pass something back. We'll get together to see if we can work it out. But at least the volleying back and forth so we can come to common ground or at least try.
Crowley: Have you seen common ground? Name me one really big thing in the last four years that the House of Representatives has passed on a bipartisan basis.
Israel: Well look, we just passed the Violence Against Women Act, it took the Tea Party Republicans 500 days to allow us a vote and we did finally get a vote for it. Look, I just came from my district, Candy. I think my district is like most others in America. I don't care if you're in a blue district, or red district, or purple district, you want a Congress that's going to focus on solutions. You're tired of the politics of blame and want a Congress that focuses on solutions. On this major economic issue we have right now, sequestration, House Democrats have attempted on three separate occasions to get a vote on a solution that is based on compromise that is fair and balanced, that continues to cut spending beyond what we've already agreed to cut – a trillion dollars – that cleans out our tax code, eliminates corporate tax loopholes for special interest, archives, that reprioritizes. We couldn't even get a vote, not one vote on those three things. Look, I like Greg Walden a lot. We do a lot of work together. We share each other's pains. My question to Greg, can we at least – in the spirit of comedy and compromise – can we at least get a vote on our common sense solutions? You can vote no but at least give us a vote.
Walden: So the way this works, we've had two votes, one in May and one in December to offset sequestration in the House. We came up with common sense reductions in spending, some of which came from the President's own initiatives. We sent that to the Senate. The Senate never took it up, the Senate never passed it. The President never weighed in of support. He said if you don't increase taxes, I'm going to veto it. We've tried to get flexibility from the sequester moving forward. It's been rejected, or it's like the Jimmy Buffett song "if the phone doesn't ring, it must be me." We're waiting for Harry Reid or we're waiting for Barack Obama.
Crowley: Let me move you on to politics because something caught my eye in a story today in The Washington Post. It quotes you, Congressman Israel. Quote, the President understands to get anything done he needs a democratic majority in the House of Representatives, said Representative Steve Israel, chairman of the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee. To have a legacy in 2016, he will need a House majority in 2014 and that work has to start now. How is that substantially different from Mitch McConnell, who was pounded for years for saying his priority, was to get the president to be a one-term President?
Israel: There's a huge difference. The difference is that House Democrats have consistently supported compromise. The president put out a plan…
Crowley: This is about the President's legacy now, which you point out. The President's legacy. How would we ever know that he really wants to work with House Republicans when we know that he wants the House to be democratic and is actively working in a way he has not worked at it before?
Israel: Here is why. Last Thursday Republican Speaker of the House, John Boehner, spoke to the Republican caucus and said there will be no more negotiations, no more talks. Not one corporate tax loophole will be considered as part of the sequester. The Republican caucus cheered. Since when did we begin cheering for failure, since we did cheer against compromise? The fact of the matter is the Speaker said we will not negotiate and there was cheering. What the president needs is more conversation about compromise and less cheering for the lack of compromise.
Walden: Let's think of the first phone call the President of the United States made as he left the platform on election night it was to my friend here from New York Steve Israel as reported by The Washington Post, 'I'm all in this trying to take back the House.' The next phone call was to Nancy Pelosi saying I'm all in to take back the house. He's had the never ending campaign using Air Force One at $180,000 an hour to campaign around the country. He's not committed to solving these problems until he has nobody that will stand up and say let's have a check and balance here, Mr. President. For heaven's sake, don't get in the President's way or question him or you might regret staking out your position.
Crowley: Congressman Israel, you can see why people will look askance at the President's dealings with Republicans in the House who he now has dedicated into getting out of office. Now we knew that obviously Presidents want their own party in, but this, in the midst of all these negotiations, shades how you look at it. Does it not?
Israel: Well look, the President has consistently supported compromise. The President and House Democrats have supported over a trillion dollars in cuts. We know we have to cut even more. What the president has said to House Republicans is let's substitute 750,000 pink slips, which this process will lead us to, with a reduction in big handouts to a few big oil companies. Let me finish. The kinds of cuts that are going to cost 750,000 jobs. We need compromise and solutions and less blame.
Crowley: Let me move you onto issues.
Walden: Before you do that, I do think I get a chance to respond here in terms of the fiscal cliff. The President just got 6 to 700 billion dollars in tax increases at the end of the year in a compromise on the tax code. That was a compromise by the House and Senate into law. That's an enormous amount of revenue you think about 600 to 700 billion dollars in higher taxes. We've done the tax piece. We need now to deal with Washington wasteful spending and it needs to be done. The trillion dollars he's talking, the Budget Control Act, it did happen. Its law and it included the sequestration. That's what we're arguing about today. That's where the cuts come from.
Crowley: Let me ask you, moving forward on sort of separate issues you have. We have a situation where a number of Republicans joined in publicly stating their support for gay marriage. I wanted to ask you as you look at these upcoming elections for House members, how do you hold true to the social pillars of the Republican Party and still invite in those, and there are many Republicans who say we need to be supporting gay marriage?
Walden: There's certainly Republicans who do. Ileana Ros-Lehtinen and Richard Hanna and others have actively engaged in that and support that. In other parts of our country, they don't support that.
Crowley: It kind of invites primary challenges.
Walden: It can, it does, but that's what primaries are about. I think we're evolving on a lot of these issues. But the thing Americans care most about is am I going to have a job, are we going to get the economy going, sign off on keystone pipeline, create 20,000 jobs. I think the economy is just number one and should be for everybody.
Crowley: Let me ask you on your side of the aisle, you have, I think, more than almost a dozen, maybe more than two dozen, actually, Congressmen written the president, no way, no how can you touch Social Security, Medicare or Medicaid which everybody says are the huge drivers of the deficit. How do you sort of bring the Democratic Party behind not a single but at least a consensus view of what should happen to these entitlement programs?
Israel: Number one we've already achieved over $700 billion in savings and efficiencies in Medicare. Number two, we understand we've got to go beyond that. We've got to have a serious conversation, good compromise and start strategy on entitlements. What we get is we want to reform Medicare. We want to begin to reduce Medicare and Social Security from the Republicans but we can't find one single special interest tax loophole they are willing to roll back or end? Why is it that seniors have to be the first to sacrifice the most?
Crowley: Everybody does think the entitlements are what really you have to approach and we don't see any sign of that. I got to go here. But I want to thank you so much, Congressman Israel and Congressman Walden.

British unemployment claims fall unexpectedly
LONDON (Reuters) - The number of Britons claiming unemployment benefits fell unexpectedly in November and the number of people in work hit a record high, data showed, raising prospects the labor market will support a moribund economy.
The data will give some relief to the government and policymakers struggling with an economy that only exited recession in the third quarter. Weak business surveys have raised concerns of a relapse.
"The fact that UK employment is rising, consumer confidence is up, and anecdotal evidence of retail sales haven't been too bad, offers some hope that the domestic situation in the UK is stabilizing," said James Knightley at ING.
Sterling hit a five-week high versus the dollar after the data of above $1.6133. London's FTSE 100 index .FTSE remained 0.3 percent higher on the day but there was no reaction on gilt markets.
The number of people claiming jobless benefits fell by 3,000 last month and the increase in the previous month was revised down to 6,000 from 10,100, the Office for National Statistics said on Wednesday. Analysts had forecast a rise of 7,000.
On the wider ILO measure, the number of people without a job fell by 82,000 in the three months through October to 2.510 million, the lowest since March-May 2011. The jobless rate stayed at 7.8 percent, in line with forecasts.
"This is a good set of figures. What we've seen is extraordinary resilience by the private sector," Employment Minister Mark Hoban told Sky TV after the release.
Recent business surveys have showed that firms in Britain's dominant service sector increased staffing levels last month but factories reduced headcount.
A separate survey published on Monday showed British firms hired permanent staff through recruitment agencies at the fastest rate since April 2011 last month. Continued...

Danielle Wright and family take a tour bus to Cape Reinga and find themselves the main attraction.
Turning into Ninety Mile Beach we're immediately confronted by a red Holden V8 hooning past on the sandy highway. Wild horses play in grass behind the sand dunes and seagulls fly high to drop pipis for their breakfast. No one is sunbathing and no one is splashing in the waves.
Even though there are no crowds on the beach, the sheer length of the super-sized shoreline is enough to hold the promise of excitement and its history points to great adventures here. Such as Sir Charles Kingsford Smith's 1928 transtasman flight to Sydney, the first - it took 14 hours and 25 minutes.
Until the 1980s, the endless stretch of golden sand was also used for droving - especially cattle - from the 40,000-acre Te Paki station near North Cape. The sight of horseman Ken Lewis herding thousands of cattle down the beach against the crashing waves must have been something to see.
There are also fishing competitions with lucrative cash prizes and shipwrecks to explore.
At one time, a new world land speed record was set here by Norman Wizard Smith, and in the 1920s, annual car races were held.
We've driven here from Paihia, via Kerikeri orchards and a stop at the Ancient Kauri Kingdom for morning tea, where our fellow bus travellers huddled around a table stuffed with souvenirs taking pictures of things we take for granted, on cameras with enormous lenses.
"It's great they find our country so interesting," I tell my husband, as we walk past the souvenirs, noticing only the huge kauri tree carved in the middle as a staircase to the art gallery upstairs.
A pile of logs out the front becomes a jungle gym for our children as they run along its sides, sit on a carved dolphin and run their hands along engraved leaves. The logs are reclaimed from underground and are now used to make furniture.
Back on the bus, we pass a patch of mist and the bus leans to one side as half the passengers rush across to capture the Kodak moment.
When cows are spotted on the opposite side, it leans back as the stampede for prime position continues.
Our driver, Huey, takes us to a spot where we can dig for pipis on the beach. I notice one of the tourists taking a picture of us from the side.
We smile politely, unfortunately indicating we're fair game as a rush of snappers crowd around us, clicking away.
"Wait. Look at the beautiful beach, see what Huey's doing - wow,
pipis!" I say to them, while my husband lifts our daughter over his back, hanging from her legs.
Bad move.
Pretty much the whole group is laughing and taking pictures of us now.
From that point on, we spend most of the stops being chased around (and often under) the bus, trying to escape. We feel like cuddly pandas on display in a zoo.
At the Te Paki quicksand stream we make a break from the rest and rush up the sand dunes with boogie boards, using our feet (and in my case, also my hands) to slow us down on the long dune descent.
Next, it's Cape Reinga and the famous lighthouse. Huey sings a song to lost loved ones as we arrive and talks about the spirituality of the region and the significance to Maori of the lonely pohutakawa tree marking a spirit's journey to ancient Hawaiiki.
After his build-up, I expect to see families huddled together, weeping for their loved ones, but I don't see any mourners, just lots of tourists.
There's a long winding walk to the lighthouse and, in parts, it's remarkably quiet, considering the noisy sea below.
"You can see the two seas meeting - the Tasman and Pacific (sometimes known as the man and the woman to Maori)," says one English chap, but I don't see anything dramatic in the rain, just lots of white caps on the waves.
In the carpark, Wayne Petera is selling native trees and for $20 our children are able to plant a pohutakawa in memory of my grandfather, who passed away not long ago. He was a keen gardener and would have liked the gesture.
We're given a certificate with the GPS co-ordinate so we can check up on our tree and see how well it is growing before we visit it again. If we are worried, we can email Wayne and ask how it's doing and he'll take a picture collage to send back to us.
On the bus ride back to Paihia we stop at Houhora Game Fishing Club for lunch and the Puketi kauri forest. As we arrive back in Paihia, Huey sings us a Maori farewell song in a soft, low croon.
It's been a long day - 11 hours from start to finish - yet the bus trip was surprisingly easy with small children, who loved to hold their Dad's hand - usually on the driver's wheel - and fall asleep in his lap - something I'm sure they will remember almost as much as the sights.
Cruisin' the Bays: Winter is a great time to do the pilgrimage to Cape Reinga. Dolphin Cruises offers a Ninety Mile Beach and Cape Reinga day-trip from Paihia.
Where to stay: The Waterfront Suites, The Heritage Boutique Collection, 100 Marsden Rd, Paihia. Phone: 09 402 5665.
I always have a great stay at any Heritage property. The manager was friendly and helpful, the facilities that little bit nicer than you have at home and the view spectacular. You can walk everywhere you need to within a few minutes.
Family-friendly food: We ate at Shippey's - fresh fish and chips, on a ship! The staff were amazing with our over-tired children who rushed around wanting to be ship's captain. Shippeys is permanently parked on the beach next to the Waitangi Bridge, Te Kemara Ave, Paihia. Phone: 09 402 7757.

Thank you for your help, I had actually tried already the [iw=weight01]. The percentages are exactly the same with both [aw= ] and [iw= ]. The only thing that does change is the total frequencies. Thank you for pointing it out in your e-mail, Iu had not actually noticed it.

Also, for the purposes of the tab command, he might want [iw=weight01]. It depends on what the goal is. This would give you the estimated number of households in each country that have a particular characteristic, e.g. there are are an estimated 400,000 people in the UK with illness 1. You might get Ns in the millions, even though the sample is only a few thousand. With aweights, the weights will be rescaled to reflect the sample Ns. -help weights- provides more info, even better is section 23.16 of the User's Guide. Stata's weighting options are more extensive than what I was used to so reading through that section was very helpful to me. ------------------------------------------- Richard Williams, Notre Dame Dept of Sociology OFFICE: (574)631-6668, (574)631-6463 FAX: (574)288-4373 HOME: (574)289-5227 EMAIL: firstname.lastname@example.com WWW (personal): http://www.nd.edu/~rwilliam WWW (department): http://www.nd.edu/~soc * * For searches and help try: * http://www.stata.com/support/faqs/res/findit.html * http://www.stata.com/support/statalist/faq * http://www.ats.ucla.edu/stat/stata/ * * For searches and help try: * http://www.stata.com/support/faqs/res/findit.html * http://www.stata.com/support/statalist/faq * http://www.ats.ucla.edu/stat/stata/

Sub floor Dry rot under wall
1 Attachment(s)
Bathroom had extensive dry rot but most of it easy to get to.
Except where the T&G goes under the non load bearing wall into the bedroom.
Floor is 1 1/8" with 3/8 particle board underlay.
I plan on replacing "in place" the bottom plate that is almost gone and the wall studs that are damaged. Non load bearing wall.
I want to take out as much of the damaged wood that I can access and plan on sliding it under the wall when I remove the bottom plates. The wall will be temporarily supported.
Any thoughts on this or easier way?
It's not a problem:
Notice missing studs against brick wall.
Sometimes nice to see others with the same issue, not that it's good but....:eek:

Brent and NYMEX rebound in Asia
On Monday, crude prices rebounded in Asia, as traders bet nervously on a a down-to-the-wire verdict by the OPEC to curb production as proposed.
American crude prices ascended 0.24% to $46.17 a barrel in New York, while global benchmark Brent futures managed to acquire 0.29%, reaching $48.38 a barrel.
The previous week, crude prices dipped steeply on Friday amid uncertainty as for whether the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries can come to a compromise to cut output and prop up markets.
Doubts as for whether key global exporters will be able to reach an agreement on November 30 to restrict output also kept traders on the sidelines. On Wednesday, the OPEC is to hold a gathering in Vienna aimed at finalizing the details of a proposed production cut, which it's hoped will diminish a global supply glut, which has pressured crude prices lower for more than two years.
The producer cartel is currently trying to get its 14 member states as well as non-OPEC member Russia, to implement coordinated output cuts.

I am SOOOOO glad that he brought up the issue of still getting 5 points if you fall on a Quad Toe.

Stocks Rally on Jobs News
Stocks finished solidly higher after a rally into the close Friday, as a June employment report pointed toward firm economic growth alongside tame inflation. A dip in crude oil futures also boosted sentiment. Equity markets showed notable resiliency one day after terror bombings in London that left more than 50 people dead and 700 injured.
The Dow Jones industrial average rose 146.85 points, or 1.43%, to 10,449.14. The broader Standard & Poor's 500 index rose by 13.99 points, or 1.17%, to 1,211.86. The tech-heavy Nasdaq composite was up 73.22 points, or 1.79%, to 2,112.88.
August crude oil futures settled down $1.10 to $59.63 a barrel, as traders took profits on the strong gains from hurricane worries. The threat that hurricane Dennis may disrupt oil production still looms, keeping an underlying support for oil prices, says Standard & Poor's MarketScope.
U.S. nonfarm payrolls rose by 146,000 in June, falling short of the medan economist expectation of 190,000. But the unemployment rate dipped to 5.0% from 5.1%, and average hourly earnings rose by 0.2%. May's payrolls number was revised up to 104,000 from 78,000. While the headline payrolls figure falls short of expectations, most of the subcomponents of the data are healthy and should help the dollar, says Action Economics.
Earnings season kicked off after the close on Thursday, with aluminum producer Alcoa (AA ) reporting second-quarter earnings. The company saw earnings of 52 cents a share vs. 46 cents last year, on a 13% rise in revenue.
Consultant Accenture (ACN ) also reported earnings for the second quarter after Thursdday's close. That company saw earnings of 51 cents a share, vs. 37 cents last year. Net revenues rose by 11% to $4.08 billion.
Shares of Polo Ralph Lauren (RL ) were up after the company said it expects better-than-expected operating margins for its first quarter, along with at least a 20% rise in total revenue.
Looking ahead to next week, the economic calendar includes data on trade, consumer and producer prices, retail sales, industrial production, manufacturing, and consumer sentiment.
Next week, earnings season goes into full swing with announcements from PepsiCo (PEP ) on Tuesday, Gannett (GCI ), Apple Computer (AAPL ), Advanced Micro Devices (AMD ), and Yum! Brands (YUM ) on Wednesday, and UnitedHealth Group (UNH ) on Thursday.
Treasury Market
U.S. Treasury prices fell, and yields pushed higher, as stocks rallied, and the June employment report pointed toward strength in the economy. The benchmark 10-year note added 5 basis points in yield, finishing at 4.10%.
World Markets
European stock markets finished higher Friday, after a strong rebound from Thursday's losses. London's FTSE 100 index rose 73.90 points, or 1.43%, to 5,232.20. Insurers including Prudential and Friends Provident led the rebound after seeing steep losses from the London terror attacks on Thursday.
In Germany, the DAX index went up 67.79 points, or 1.50%, to 4,597.97. Bayerische Motoren Werke moved higher after the company said it sold 4% more vehicles in mainland China. Infineon was also higher.
In Paris, the CAC 40 index rose 76.69 points, or 1.89%, moving to 4,300.31. STMicroelectronics was higher after Goldman Sachs raised its rating on the stock to "outperform."
Asian markets finished lower Friday, but the downside was limited thanks to the late-session rebound of stocks in European and U.S. markets on Thursday. In Japan, the Nikkei index lost 24.15 points, or 0.21%, to 11,565.99, after May machinery orders hurt sentiment. Domestic stock groups including the financial services, retail, and real estate sectors showed the most weakness, while automotive and electronics, both exporter groups, rose.
In Hong Kong, the Hang Seng index fell 66.34 points, or 0.47%, to 13,964.47. Top laggards including China Mobile, HSBC Holdings, and CNOOC.

Sunglasses are used by humans for countless years now. They are used not just in look classy but additionally to defend your eye area from harmful rays of sun and dirt particles. Sunglasses are usually counted one of many classic finishing touches employed to flaunt a method and distinct fashion sense. The fashion icon, sunglasses are hold constantly in place with the aid of straps. Varieties of straps constructed from different materials are offered nowadays. Most common types of accessories are constructed from terra, linx, floater and leather. A leather sunglass strap is known as the gentlemen's accessory. Some years ago, when plastic polymers put together, the sunglass straps were made from plastic polymers including foam. Now, individuals have gone beyond wearing the foam throughout the neck and leather sunglass strap is the identity of the truth rugged gentleman.

Now when it comes to masculinity, discussing talking caveman here, or 'Johnny Redneck' that is not able to communicate his feelings. This guy understands how to achieve that quite well. We're referring to a guy who understands how to treat a lady so she likes to as being a W-O-M-A-N… not just like a buddy, or perhaps a housekeeper, or his mother, but like a lady.

This will take a little practice to be a calming gentleman. Relax and rest parts of your muscles and not the mind. Always remain alert.

Richard Lucas is an English businessman who has been based in Krakow since 1991. He runs an Internet community that's bustling with ideas for promoting the legacy of the beloved bear.
Krakow Post: When did you first hear about Wojtek?
Richard Lucas: In the 1980s. Probably from my brother Edward Lucas, who is now an authority on Eastern Europe and Russia. It was only around Christmas 2008 that I became aware of the idea of building a statue in Edinburgh (where Wojtek ended his days). That let me to thinking "why not Krakow?" The positive reaction from family and friends led me to start talking to people more widely and work out what I wanted to achieve.
KP: What are your main objectives?
RL: On one level, to tell General Anders' wartime story. It's particularly important when some are trying to portray the Soviet Union's wartime history as either good, or no less bad than other countries involved. Above all, I'm interested in using Wojtek's story of survival, sacrifice, commitment, motivation, patriotism, love, and friendship to make current and future generations aware of these values. Wojtek would be perfect to become a Polish "Panda-like" symbol for values of freedom, international co-operation, peace and friendship. Wojtek can be to Poland as the Panda is for China.
If you try to get teachers and children interested in a forgotten holocaust – which the deportations to the Gulag represent – they are not usually interested. But if you tell them about Wojtek you get immediate interest. I want to use Wojtek's "pulling power" (Winnie the Pooh, The Jungle Book, Paddington Bear) to inspire children everywhere. It's very easy to get people – especially children – keen on the bear, and through this open up the whole legacy. I want to support projects all over the world. I am personally involved in Krakow, where I live. Elsewhere I will give support in terms of know-how/ideas, but I want to encourage other people to do things rather than see it as anything I want to control.
KP: Can Krakow be a role model for other cities?
RL: Of course, because I live here and can be more involved its easier for me to support local projects. Having said that, I would be even more excited about a project in Gaza, Egypt, Iran, Iraq, Israel or Syria than in Scotland or Poland because these would be the first of their kind in those countries.
KP: What have you achieved so far?
RL: Not as much as I would have liked. The Primary School 72 in Krakow has done a lot, having their school fair devoted to Wojtek and having a mass of excellent activities. It's great because it didn't cost anything other than energy and is therefore replicable anywhere that there is a willing teacher or child ready to take the initiative. Deanburn Primary School in Scotland did something similar. I've been to an event in the Scottish National Assembly but that is not an end in itself. There is the concept of bushfire in Poland, which means initial enthusiasm which dies fast. I want to avoid that – a steady stream of projects that don't require any money is better than a mass of things that don't work. Famous people like Radek Sikorski and Norman Davies have voiced support.
The Facebook group is growing fast but that only means something if people actually do something. This helps people who want to do things get in touch with each other. I've done a a few interviews with websites and radio. Trying to lead volunteers is a bracing and challenging process. There is no end point; I hope schools will be doing "Wojtek" projects long after I am dead and gone.
KP: What can readers do who want to get involved?
RL: It's easy. Join the Facebook Group (or e-mail me at email@example.com). Send me a message saying what you want to do. I need a lot of help, for example, with PR, translation, but most of all finding people who are willing to lead projects in the place/institution they live/work in. I read Polish as well as English. I will happily send anyone a five slide project management guide about how to get a project going. Most people are connected to some institution somehow. It's all a question of what situation they are in. If they live in a village, they can talk to the school. If they go to a Dom Kultury, maybe the art teacher can do a competition. If they have kids, they can go to the school their children are at, if they went to school they can go back to the school they were at. Activities can include, but are not restricted to, competitions (art, photography, painting, sculpture, ceramics, drawing), stories/essay writing, historical research, film, theatre, performing arts, music, singing, exhibitions – the list is endless.

3 Responses to "Poland's Panda?"
I only just read about Woytek's exploits, which came close upon my finding similarly amazing adventures surrounding another military animal of renown, though one of higher rank: Sgt. Stubby the dog of the American AEF from WWI.
It is truly amazing to me that a bear and a dog would adopt themselves so completely to the wartime milieu and then retain such a very special protective and understanding comradeship with their human partners. And surprisingly, they each unmasked a spy, remained at the front under intensive shell fire, and performed remarkably in situations when many soldiers might have crumbled under the pressure.
Woytek and Sgt. Stubby offered amazing friendship to the members of their respective units and countless lives were saved because of their steadfast fidelity in the harshest of battlefield conditions.
(Mam nadzieję, że moi polscy przechodzi wykrzesać)
I tylko po prostu czytać o wyczynach Woytek, która była bliska znalezienia podobnie na moich przygodach niesamowitych okolic kolejny wojskowy zwierzę renomie, choć jeden z wyższej rangi: sierż. Stubby dog Amerykański AEF z I wojny światowej.
To jest naprawdę niesamowite do mnie, że niedźwiedź i pies przyjmie się tak zupełnie do wojny środowiska i zachować taką bardzo specjalną ochronną i zrozumienie koleżeństwa ze swoich ludzkich partnerów. A więc dziwnego, że każdy zdemaskowany szpieg, pozostał na froncie pod intensywnym ogniem powłoki i wykonać wyjątkowo w sytuacjach, gdy wielu żołnierzy może rozpadły się pod ciśnieniem.
Woytek i sierż. Stubby oferowane niesamowita przyjaźń członkom swoich jednostek i życiu niezliczonych zostały zapisane z powodu ich niezłomnej wierności w najtrudniejszych warunkach bojowych.

SENIOR councillors fear the biggest backlash over their budget cuts will come from users of Camden's Play Service.
Parents with children at a host of council-sponsored play centres across the borough were at the Town Hall last week when the Labour cabinet agreed a budget plan which will see funding withdrawn from a number of well-known clubs.
Officials insist they are dealing with "unprecedented" cuts ordered by the government, and a black hole in council coffers amounting to £100million over three years.
The council's plan is to re-focus services on children in need and those with disabilities. Breakfast clubs and after-school sessions for others are unlikely to be supported.
Among those facing the threat of closure is the popular Plot 10 centre in Somers Town. Children from the club were among the protesters who braved the cold last week to appeal to councillors to suspend the cuts. One youngster's heartbreaking placard read: "Please Santa, can you save Plot 10?"
Zoe Bishop, who uses this centre and is on its management board, said last night (Wednesday): "The parents of children of Plot 10 will be devastated. It has been there 40 years. Some of the parents went there themselves as children. It is a safe and secure fun centre for children, a place where working and single parents can use knowing 100 per cent that they will be fine."
She added: "It's also affordable childcare. If the Play Service was to close would parents be able to afford alternative childcare? It will make it not worth some people going out to work. We all know people in the Play Service, we are thinking about all of the centres and there is a passionate campaign to keep them all open."
Plot 10 offers breakfast clubs and after-school services for children from five years old. Supporters are now working on a petition. Play services at Fairfield in Camden Town and on the Maiden Lane Estate are among the other centres fearing the worst.
Labour councillor Heather Johnson, cabinet member for Children, Schools and Families, said: "Anywhere that we pick there is somebody who doesn't want us to make that cut. Quite rightly so. Everybody has their own reason, but when it comes down to it we only have so much money in the bank."

Record Store Day happened a couple of weeks ago, reminding me that it had been ages since I had a concrete, trustworthy method of finding new music. Ever since we gave analog the heave-ho and moved to digital, I've been completely lost about finding new music. Sure, there are a wealth of music blogs and websites, but who has the time to parse through all that stuff?
To save myself from listening to Metallica's "For Whom the Bell Tolls" for the 800th time in a row, here are some ways I've been attempting to find new tunes.
The somewhat illegal, completely accessible way to find new music is by clicking over to YouTube. Pop in a song that you like, and watch a veritable shitload of recommendations show up in the sidebar.
TV Shows
You first have to be willing to drop the pretense that just because it's on a TV show doesn't make it good. A lot of the songs I've found and loved lately were featured on the TV shows I watch. You can Google the lyrics and listen on YouTube before you commit to buying a song outright.
Other Bloggers
When Maggie added "listen to 1000 new songs" to her Life List and posted the results, she inadvertantly came up with a fantastic list of songs I'd never heard of before. Lots of bloggers are using 8Tracks to make mini-mixes, or different plugins to show the world what they're listening to right now. Click on some songs and find new stuff.
I have to admit – I'm not overwhelmingly pleased with Pandora. It's a really cool idea, but I end up fast forwarding through more songs than I do listening – not exactly ideal if you're trying to find new stuff. People seem to love it, though, so give it a whirl.
Look Up Your Favorite Old Bands
I can't tell you how many times I've said, "Wait, they had a new album come out HOW many years ago?" Look up some of your favorite old bands – they may have released one, two or several new records since you last listened.
What are you doing to find new music?

Cavaliers acquire PG Pargo from Grizzlies
Associated Press | Last updated July 25, 2012
The Cavaliers acquired point guard Jeremy Pargo, a second-round draft pick in 2014, and cash considerations from the Grizzlies in exchange for guard-forward D.J. Kennedy on Wednesday. Pargo, 26, played in 44 games with Memphis last season, averaging 2.9 points and 1.3 assists in 9.7 minutes. In 2010-11, Pargo played in the Israel Premier League and averaged 10 points, 3.5 rebounds and 6.3 assists in 27.1 minutes. ''Our approach remains consistent as we try to bring in young talent, create future opportunity with draft picks as potential assets, and maintain flexibility,'' Cavaliers general manager Chris Grant said. ''Jeremy adds depth to our backcourt. He is a young, aggressive, athletic guard who we feel fits well with our style of play, both defensively and offensively.'' Kennedy appeared in two games for the Cavaliers last season and averaged six points, 3.5 rebounds and 1.5 assists.

Why is my PC randomly shutting down?
I've had this build for over 16 months and I've not had any problems before. Now today all of a sudden it is switching itself off, then It'll try rebooting automatically and fail and then the power light will come on and then go off and It'll carry on doing this until I switch it off at the wall.
The only change today has been a new Corsair SP120 fan for my radiator, to replace a noisy one. I also tried unplugging it from the fan header to test the powering on issue and it didn't make a difference.
I turned the PC off at the wall and back on but when I pressed the power button it lit up for a few seconds with some brief fan spin and then went off again and I couldn't get it to turn back on.
I turned it off at the wall again for a few minutes and checked connections inside, thinking maybe I knocked something when putting the fan in - all seemed fine. Switched back on just now and here I am typing this not knowing it it'll go off again.
Temps all seems okay too, I use Asus Fan Xpert and temps are currently 38C on the CPU and 33 on the mobo.
Any ideas what's going on?

Sorry, its me I keep creeping in and tapping your power button.I am once again writing a blog, vaguely about playing games the wrong way
Sounds like you are having mainboard power issues, swap the mainboard cables for other ones on the power supply incase you have a damaged wire/loose plug, with consequently higher resistance.
My bet is that as your power supply slowly dies (as they all do) you are getting insufficient electric. I'd look into trying out a different PC's power supply on the PC and see how it runs. You may need to buy a new power supply unless you are a geek with a house covered in spare parts.I am once again writing a blog, vaguely about playing games the wrong way
I'm going to strip everything down and put everything back again. I might even re-do the thermal paste on the cooler block.
Will have to wait till Thursday though.
25-06-2014, 09:46 AM #6I am once again writing a blog, vaguely about playing games the wrong way
My PC has recently started doing the same thing, twice in two consecutive mornings (5am and 7am). The odd thing is, though, that it can put up with hours and hours of Arma 3 (my brother has been, er, 'stress testing' with several hours of Breaking Point every night for quite some time) but apparently can't handle being idle.
Checking Event Viewer, it appears I've had a spate of these errors occurring since late May, but we've also been having a lot of complete power cuts lately (since April or so) so I wonder if it's a temporary hiccup in the supply making the PC reboot? The only thing with that, though, is that every time we have a power cut my PC turns on by itself but forgets which drive it's supposed to be booting from, but yesterday and today when I've sat at my PC I've been greeted by the log in screen. So I'm puzzled.:emofdr:
After taking everything out and putting everything back in it seems fine now. I didn't do the cooler block in the end because I couldn't find my cleaning and prep solution and tube of arctic paste. I'll find them and do the CPU at some point but for now at least it all seems fine. I can't shake the feeling that there was some weird electrical problem from the socket (I also changed fuse in the plug). Very strange.
Neema_t, just out of interest how many and what drives do you have? I have a Samsung SSD for my boot drive and three standard HDD's.

Could be your computer is too hot?I play mostly in the PS4, but I still love a good PC game
Sounds like an overheating issue to me.
Something is getting too hot and forcing your computer to shut down.

May following link help you in regarding shutdown of your PC:
Some general info (although seems like the OP has resolved the issue) - if your PC is just switching off, it will most likely be one of the following:
1) PSU is inadequate - it may be on the edge of its limits and a small change like a new card or fan may have tipped it over the edge or you have somehow damaged the PSU.
2) Lose connection - I have had this where I plugged a fan into a 4-pin Molex connector/extension to power it and my PC was switching off randomly - when inspecting all the wiring I found a pin was black and it was basically shorting out.
3) Overheating - should easier to diagnose as it would most likely happen under load (or quicker at least) and therefore you can test it out more easily. You could install something like Speedfan and monitor temperatures to keep an eye on them.
In my experience, anything relating to the CPU after moving things around would cause your PC not to switch on at all. I have had about 5 builds where something was not right with the way I fitted the CPU and it would not switch on.
Often it is worth (as the OP did) to removing everything and reseating, especially if you suspect the machine has been jolted around a bit.
#3 we can ignore too as I monitored temps and they all remained stable. If the CPU get's too hot the colour of the Corsair logo on my H100i changes to red and I then get a BIOS alert page. It stayed blue as normal, internal temps and the two 780's were also at nominal idle temps.
#2 is the likely cause because after removing and refitting everything bar the cooler block the problem mysteriously went away. I'm inclinde to think it was probably the ATX connector on the header, although it didn't feel loose I did knock it while installing a new 120mm fan on the header next to the ATX connector.
Plus there's still the possibility there was some sort of strange power surge in the house's electrical supply; though nothing like this has ever happened before, apart from the washing machine blowing a main fuse about a month ago (faulty motor). Also, the possibility there's a fault with the electrical socket on the wall - though everything is connected to a power surge protected extension lead (one of the expensive ones - not those cheap-ass pieces of crap).
Anyway, all is calm once again.
Good to hear it is all ok. Good choice on the decent surge protector - should keep things safer. Yes, those chunky ATX connectors can be hard to tell in terms of connection because there is so much plastic around them. It can give you a bit of a panic when these issues appear!

The Carolina Hurricanes signed defenseman Jay Harrison to a three-year contract extension.
Team president and general manager Jay Rutherford said the $4.5 million contract was earned through Harrison's consistency.
"Jay developed into a consistent, steadying presence for our defense," he said. "He is capable of providing both physicality and offense, and we are happy to have him under contract for the next four seasons."
Harrison led Hurricanes' defensemen with nine goals and had 14 assists in 72 games.
Harrison, 29, was second on the team in blocked shots (132) and was nominated for the NHL's Bill Masterston Trophy for sportsmanship and dedication to hockey.
He was drafted in the third round of the 2001 draft by Toronto and signed with Carolina in 2009.

C int numt = pvm_spawn( char *task, char **argv, int flag, char *where, int ntask, int *tids )
Fortran call pvmfspawn( task, flag, where, ntask, tids, numt )
In C, flag should be the sum of: Option value MEANING PvmTaskDefault 0 PVM can choose any machine to start task PvmTaskHost 1 where specifies a particular host PvmTaskArch 2 where specifies a type of architecture PvmTaskDebug 4 Start up processes under debugger PvmTaskTrace 8 Processes will generate PVM trace data. * PvmMppFront 16 Start process on MPP front-end. PvmHostCompl 32 Use complement host set In Fortran, flag should be the sum of: Option value MEANING PVMDEFAULT 0 PVM can choose any machine to start task PVMHOST 1 where specifies a particular host PVMARCH 2 where specifies a type of architecture PVMDEBUG 4 Start up processes under debugger PVMTRACE 8 Processes will generate PVM trace data. * * future extension
The where argument can also be used to specify a custom working directory for each given spawn command. This is done by appending a ':' and the desired working directory path to the where string, i.e.:
PVM will temporarily change the working directory to spawn the given task(s), and will then reset to the default working directory after the spawn is executed. This option need not be used in conjunction with either the PvmTaskHost or PvmTaskArch flags, as the working directory path is stripped off prior to parsing any host or architecture name. A valid specification for where is therefore:
The working directory can be either an absolute path name or can be
relative to the current default working directory.
setenv DISPLAY myworkstation:0.0 setenv MYSTERYVAR 13 setenv PVM_EXPORT DISPLAY:MYSTERYVAR
The hosts on which the PVM processes are started are determined by the flag and where arguments. On return the array tids contains the PVM task identifiers for each process started.
If pvm_spawn starts one or more tasks, numt will be the actual number of tasks started. If a system error occurs then numt will be < 0. If numt is less than ntask then some executables have failed to start and the user should check the last ntask - numt locations in the tids array which will contain error codes (see below for meaning). The first numt tids in the array are always valid.
When flag is set to 0 and where is set to NULL (or "*" in Fortran) a heuristic (round-robin assignment) is used to distribute the ntask processes across the virtual machine.
If the PvmHostCompl flag is set, the resulting host set gets complemented. Given that the TaskHost host name "." is taken as localhost, these can be used together, for example, to request n - 1 tasks on host "." but with flags TaskHost|HostCompl to spawn n - 1 tasks on hosts other than the localhost.
In the special case where a multiprocessor is specified by where, pvm_spawn will start all ntask copies on this single machine using the vendor's underlying routines.
The spawned task will have
set to the the executable path relative to its inherited working directory
(or possibly an absolute path),
so the base filename can be got by using:
char *p;
p = (p = rindex(argv[0], '/')) ? p + 1 : argv[0];
If PvmTaskDebug is set, then the pvmd will start the task(s) under debugger(s). In this case, instead of executing pvm3/bin/ARCH/task args it executes pvm3/lib/debugger pvm3/bin/ARCH/task args. debugger is a shell script that the users can modify to their individual tastes. Presently the script starts an xterm with dbx or comparable debugger in it.
C: numt = pvm_spawn( "host", 0, PvmTaskHost, "sparky", 1, &tid[0] ); numt = pvm_spawn( "host", 0, (PvmTaskHost+PvmTaskDebug), "sparky", 1, &tid[0] ); numt = pvm_spawn( "node", 0, PvmTaskArch, "RIOS", 1, &tid[i] ); char *args[] = { "12", "60" , (char*)0 }; numt = pvm_spawn( "FEM1", args, 0, 0, 16, tids ); numt = pvm_spawn( "pde", 0, PvmTaskHost, "paragon.ornl", 512, tids ); Fortran: FLAG = PVMARCH + PVMDEBUG CALL PVMFSPAWN( 'node', FLAG, 'SUN4', 1, TID(3), NUMT ) CALL PVMFSPAWN( 'FEM1', PVMDEFAULT, '*', 16, TIDS, NUMT ) CALL PVMFSPAWN( 'TBMD', PVMHOST, 'cm5.utk.edu', 32, TIDS, NUMT )

As a result of implementing Scrum, the company is staying more closely in touch with customers through a web portal where customers can follow software development progress in real time by seeing which team member worked on a specific task, total number of hours spent, and expected date of completion.
Through the same Scrum principles and web portal, customers can reach specialists and log-in incidents and defects. Through email, customers receive information on progress when specific results are achieved and, at all times, customers can monitor the progress in real-time. Through Scrum, MicroMentis can demonstrate its continued commitment to its customers and ensure an ongoing high level of satisfaction.
Lessons Learned
- There is no 'right' time to begin implementing Scrum. Instead, it is better to go all in and simply get started, regardless of where you are in your development process.
- Through the use of Scrum, MicroMentis now has a clear alignment between teams and company goals.
- Scrum has allowed MicroMentis to work much more closely with its partners in determining product feature requests and prioritize the backlog.
- Scrum has allowed the company to improve its time-to-market delivery and realize predictable releases.

Smartphone Stock Battle: The Pros Like RIMAaron Pressman
Early June has been a heady time for gadget lovers, with Palm's (PALM) new Pre smartphone going on sale on June 6 and Apple (AAPL) unveiling its updated iPhone 3G S on June 8. Shares of both companies shot up in anticipation of the sexy devices but sold off slightly once the news arrived.
The best bet for investors may be neither stock, however.
Analysts at Goldman Sachs, Citigroup, and Robert W. Baird have all come out in recent days favoring the smartphone maker with nothing new or sexy to release in June: Research In Motion (RIMM). The maker of the ubiquitous BlackBerry line of smartphones, RIM has been lingering in the shadows this week.
Analysts say checks with wireless retail stores show RIM's in no need of a sexy new model. Sales of its existing models, such as the touchscreen Storm and consumer-oriented Curve, are running ahead of expectations. It doesn't hurt that BlackBerrys are available from virtually every major carrier while Apple's iPhone can only run on AT&T's (T) network in the U.S. and Palm's Pre is locked in with Sprint Nextel (S). Apple faithful are already griping about AT&T's trade-in prices and delays in offering MMS and broadband tethering features to the new iPhone.
Bold Predictions for RIM
Goldman Sachs (GS) analyst Simona Jankowski on June 10 increased her earnings per share estimates for RIM's fiscal 2010, which ended at the end of May, as well as the upcoming fiscal 2011. Better-than-expected sales and currency market trends are both helping bolster profits, she wrote in a research note. She thinks RIM should earn $5.34 a share, up from her previous estimate of $5.10, for 2010, and $6.45, up from $6.03, in 2011. Jankowski also increased her target price on the stock to $96, after it doubled in the past three months to about $83 a share.
Citigroup (C) analyst Jim Suva compared what Research In Motion experienced during the Palm and Apple announcements to "shooting the rapids" in a kayak. "Rapids are inevitably followed by clear water," he said in a June 1 report handicapping the various players. He expects that RIM, currently trading around $82, could hit $100. The company will be able to sell more BlackBerrys than the market expects this year, he believes, in part by taking market share from the weakest players, Motorola (MOT) and Sony Ericsson, a joint venture of consumer electronics giant Sony (SNE) and European cell-phone maker Ericsson (ERIC).
William Power, an analyst at Robert W. Baird, polled 300 retail wireless phone stores in March, April, and May and found various models of BlackBerry holding their own against the iPhone and other competitors. Power thinks RIM likely beat its target of selling 7.5 million to 8 million for those three months, the company's fiscal first quarter.
Away from Wall Street, some independent research firms are more cautious, however. Morningstar (MORN) says RIM shares are worth only about $72 and rates the stock just three stars out of five. And Ockham Research in Roswell, Ga., staffed by a handful of former Wall Street analysts, says the stock is "fairly valued" right now, and investors shouldn't consider buying it unless it drops into the mid-70s.

People who spend a lot of time on their feet and who may feel pain caused when the valves in their legs do not close properly are at risk. Dr. Gray's patients tell the story, "I was having pain and throbbing in both legs. … I was still waking up at night because of the pain, so I needed Dr. Gray to do something."
The treatments offered at the Vein and Vascular Center are more easily tolerated with fewer complications compared to surgery and, in the words of Dr. Gray, "The most rewarding part for me, is when I get to see people get confidently back on their feet and enjoy their lives more.

THE Award win for King's Sierra Leone Partnership
King's Sierra Leone Partnership (KSLP) has won a prestigious Times Higher Education Award in recognition of its work to support the development of sustainable health services in West Africa. The team picked up the award for International Collaboration of the Year at a ceremony in London.
Established in 2013, King's Sierra Leone Partnership (KSLP) is a collaboration between King's Health Partners Academic Health Sciences Centre and Sierra Leone's College of Medicine and Allied Health Science, Ministry of Health & Sanitation and Connaught Hospital in Freetown.
The team, made up in a large part by volunteers, was originally in Sierra Leone to help build and strengthen the local health system. Working with their local partners they have helped build capacity, capability and sustainability within Sierra Leone's health sector through improvement projects and strengthening training, clinical services, research and policy. They have recently helped develop and open new facilities for infectious diseases and oxygen supply.
They also played a vital role in responding to the Ebola outbreak. They provided a full clinical response to Ebola at Connaught Hospital. They worked closely with the Sierra Leone Government and local and international partners to increase the local capacity to identify and treat Ebola patients, provide essential clinical training, spread best practice quickly and, by helping set up an Ebola Command Centre in Freetown, manage the effective flow of patients across the city.
The team's joint approach enabled it to treat over 1,400 suspected and 900 confirmed cases of Ebola. They played an influential role advising the UK Government about the ongoing response, and were awarded a £1m grant by the Department for International Development in October last year.
Francis Kaikumba, Programme Director of King's Sierra Leone Partnership says 'this award is a real credit to the vision and dedication of all the partners involved in this project. The breadth of the team's work – from training and capacity-building to reacting on the ground to this major outbreak – show just how effective and successful partnerships can be as a tool for building strong and sustainable healthcare systems around the world. It is also a tribute to the local healthcare staff who bravely led the fight against Ebola, especially to those who so tragically lost their lives.'
Dr Joanna Newman, Vice-Principal (International) at King's College London, said:
"This fantastic achievement goes to show how our expertise in global health and commitment to partnership working is having a profound impact on people around the world and on changing health policy which has the potential to save millions more lives."
The King's Sierra Leone Partnership team remain in Sierra Leone working alongside their local partners to continue the development of a resilient and sustainable health system.
