Study objective: To determine the predictive factors of morbidity and mortality in patients with end-stage respiratory disease.
Design: Prospective, multicenter cohort study.
Setting: Thirteen outpatient chest clinics within the Association Nationale de Traitement à Domicile de l'Insuffisance Respiratoire.
Participants: Stable adult patients with chronic respiratory failure receiving long-term oxygen therapy and/or home mechanical ventilation (n = 446; 182 women and 264 men; aged 68.5 ± 12.1 years [± SD]); Respiratory diseases were COPD in 42.8%, restrictive disorders in 36.3%, mixed respiratory failure in 13.5%, and bronchiectasis in 7.4%. Recruitment was performed during the yearly examination. Patients with neuromuscular diseases and sleeping apnea were excluded.
Measurements and results: Hospitalization days and survival were recorded during a follow-up of 14.3 ± 5.6 months. Body mass index (BMI), serum albumin, and transthyretin levels were considered for their predictive value of outcome, together with demographic data, underlying respiratory disease, respiratory function, hemoglobin, C-reactive protein, smoking habits, oral corticosteroid use, and antibiotic treatment courses. Overall, 1.8 ± 1.7 hospitalizations (cumulative stay, 17.6 ± 27.1 days) were observed in 254 of 446 patients (57%). Independent predictors of hospitalization were oral corticosteroids, FEV1, and plasma C-reactive protein. One-year and 2-year cumulative survivals were 93% and 69%, respectively. Plasma C-reactive protein, BMI, Pao2 on room air, and oral corticosteroids independently predicted survival in multivariate analysis.
Conclusion: Besides established prognosis factors such as FEV1 and Pao2, nutritional depletion as assessed by BMI and overall systemic inflammation as estimated by C-reactive protein appear as major determinants of hospitalization and death risks whatever the end-stage respiratory disease. BMI and C-reactive protein should be included in the monitoring of chronic respiratory failure. Oral corticosteroids as maintenance treatment in patients with end-stage respiratory disease are an independent risk factor of death, and should be avoided in most cases.

When Dolly Cries
Short Story by: Vincey Delaney
Status: Finished
Genre: Other
When Dolly Cries
This mid summer is one busy time for Gwen Parker who is assistant manager of the Seaside Shops and Amusement Centre. The bright, attractive place is a popular tourist spot because it's so close to the lovely beach. Gwen, a teacher wanted to make extra money in the summer. She and husband Steve have their eyes set on a charming home on a hillside, overlooking the beach. The house they live in now is small, too cramped for the family. There's Gwen, Steve, their children, eight year old Melanie, five year old Ryan and Aunt Jess who is a great comfort. She enjoys looking after the kids while Gwen works. Mechanic Steve has been extremely happy with home dreaming and about his mother Lorraine. She surely is an excellent golfer. Today, fourteenth of August and at two o'clock, Lorraine and her teammates will play in the annual golf tournament.
Now, just before lunch, Gwen happily meets up with mother- in - law Lorraine to wish her well. Gwen has a gift for Lorraine who feels like a young girl at a party. She sees a colourful necklace.
"Oh Gwen, how sweet! Four leaf clover, a star, very pretty but it isn't my birthday!" Warm hearted Gwen taps Lorraine's arm.
"I have the benefits, working at the Seaside Shops. It's a good luck gift for today but you're amazing, you'll do wonderful! Steve will be there with his camera. Jess and the kids too, they can't wait to cheer for you!" Lorraine is anxious to wear it, Gwen now helps to fasten the new necklace. Grateful Lorraine cheerfully sighs.
"A precious gift, I love it, thank you! Yes, Melanie and Ryan are darlings, they drew me pictures that I keep with my clubs. Oh, I had a perfect dream, you, the family content in your new home! I'm hoping it comes true." Gwen turns to hug. Now, a young man approaches, Lorraine has a phone call at the lodge. She nods, Gwen glances at her watch. She should be getting back to work. Once she is close to the parking lot, Gwen has a phone call from Melanie. Gwen always enjoys hearing her soft, pleasant voice.
"Hi Mom, I'm wearing my new, butterfly outfit, it's cute! Oh, we just got a call from Alan, our fence painter who is going on a short vacation. He mentioned, Track Morris will be painting. What a weird name, scary eyebrows too! I wish Alan wasn't leaving."
"Honey, don't worry your pretty little head about grown up matters. Have a good time watching Nanna!" Melanie is at her dresser near Violet Vicky doll, a photo of Grandpa Dan, Lorraine, Melanie and Ryan skating. It's three years without dear Grandpa.
"Gosh, someone has to worry around here! Bye Gramps, all my dolls, see you later." She dashes to the kitchen, Ryan is eating, he wears his cap. Aunt Jess is cleaning the counter, she now turns.
"Sweetie, you'll need a cap in the hot sun today." Nearby, Melanie picks her orange flower sunhat, an Easter gift from Nanna.
Shortly, Aunt Jess and the children arrive at the crowded tournament. They're happy to see their dad. The warmest thrill of all happens when Melanie suddenly notices good friend, Sarah Neville. She had moved to another town in May. Melanie must go over to greet her. Steve watches, he knows this is a special moment. When the girls happily meet, it's a rainbow and pot of gold feeling. They tenderly hug. The smiles, giggles make this time memorable.
"So wonderful to see you here Melanie! We're staying for a week. We wanted to surprise you later, I have a gift in my back pack!" Sarah quickly takes out a pretty doll, Dimple Dotty Delight.
"Oh, she is beautiful, blue eyes and blonde curls! She even cries too, thank you Sarah!!" This certainly is a lovely way to start a tournament. Melanie will treasure today's heartwarming event.
Later at seven twenty, the exciting match is over, Lorraine and her team are the winners. After, there's a family party and Gwen has bought chocolate fudge cake, lemon pie. Aunt Jess plays the piano, fun celebration for Lorraine. Steve also had a great phone call from the retired principal, Mrs. Irene Hayes who is interested in buying the Parker's house. She had made an exceptional offer. The family will contact their real estate dealer tomorrow, they truly adore that new home. Melanie's best part of this evening is being with Sarah and playing with her new doll. There's a button to push for crying but it doesn't work. Melanie isn't bothered by it, she is grateful to have a sweet, lovable doll. Now in her bedroom, Melanie, Sarah and Ryan are having some fun with a board game, Actions and Ryan has the most points. Melanie now remembers she has left her tape recorder out in the garage. It's nice to record, cherish the memories. Melanie will go as she places Dimple Dotty in the hood of her sweater. Before leaving, Melanie tells she is going to the garage.
The night air is warm and the cricket sounds, a soft harmony. As Melanie gets close to the garage door, she sees a very dim light, she hears voices. She now stops walking, she attentively listens.
"This isn't much to steal Track, the lawn mower doesn't look great and this radio, cooler, nails kit aren't worth gold."
"No, but it's something Ned. I do like this electric heater, portable barbeque. All these cans of paint, pretty awesome! Kenny better get here with his truck soon." Melanie's heart is beating fast, she trembles at the thought of, Track Morris, an actual thief. All of a sudden, Melanie's doll starts crying and it's so loud that it startles everyone. Gwen rushes out, she sees Melanie pointing to the garage. The hoist is just talk, Gwen is in charge now. She is shaking but so relieved to catch the crime before the two young punks take their valuables. Melanie felt a bad vibe about Track who she saw once. It is odd, Melanie wonders how the doll did cry at that particular time. Afterwards, the police hears and makes a report. Ryan speaks out.
"And I thought dolls are so stupid but it looks like we have a crime stopping one. So, can I sit in the police car?" Melanie chuckles, she kisses Dotty, a special doll that truly cries.

Ram Trucks Ropes in Guinness World Record™
April 22, 2015
On the eve of one of the biggest night's in country music — the 50th anniversary of the ACM Awards — Ram, the "Official Truck" of the Academy of Country Music Awards, invited its customers to help break the GUINNESS WORLD RECORDS™ title for the largest parade of pickup trucks.
Ram truck owners, 451 from seven U.S states and Canada lined up for the largest parade of pickup trucks on Saturday, April 18, in Arlington, Texas, breaking the previous world record of 438 trucks."Our hard-working Ram truck owners are passionate and loyal, and today they proved once again that everything is always bigger in Texas," said Robert Hegbloom, President and Chief Executive Officer, Ram Truck Brand, FCA – North America. "Ram is the fastest growing truck brand in Texas, where trucks are king, and it was great to see 451Ram owners travel far and wide for this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to be a part of a special record-breaking rally and pickup parade."
The Ram Truck Round-up parade route started on the east side of AT&T Stadium in Arlington and traveled approximately 3.2 miles around the stadium and neighboring Globe Life Park grounds.
Participants in the Ram Truck Round-up parade were treated to a special morning of activities including car-crushing appearances by the Raminator monster truck, music performances by the Austin, Texas-based Midnight Social, appearances by country music artists Kix Brooks, Thomas Rhett and Easton Corbin, and giveaways from Ram brand partners. Participants also received free tickets for the ACM Party for a Cause Festival, taking place at Globe Life Park.
Ram Trucks in Texas Facts
More Texans drive pickup trucks than any other state (20 percent of motor vehicle registrations versus 12 percent national average) and Ram is the fastest growing truck brand in Texas. Ram's current market share of 20 percent has risen 2.52 points (15 percent) in the past five years and the brand sells two-and-a-half times as many pickup trucks in Texas as it does in the next highest volume state.
ACM Party for a Cause Festival
Ram Truck Round-up participants received tickets for Saturday's ACM Party for a Cause Festival. The two-day outdoor music event, taking place Friday, April 17, and Saturday, April 18, at Globe Life Park in Arlington, which includes multiple stages for ongoing live country music performances, interactive experiences, a family-friendly country marketplace with vendors from around the country and much more. Country music icons, including many 2015 ACM Award nominees, are set to perform. The festival also will be taped for a two-hour special "ACM Presents: Superstar Duets!," which will air on Friday, May 15, on CBS. Additional information on the event is available at ACMcountry.com.
This is the sixth consecutive year that the Ram Truck brand has partnered with, and been, the "Official Truck" of the ACM Awards. Ram Trucks' involvement has evolved over the years. This year, Ram is the sponsor of the Ram Lone Star Stage at the ACM Party for a Cause Festival and is running a national radio promotion where winners receive trips to Dallas for the ultimate ACM weekend experience. In addition, Ram promotes the ACM Awards and ACM Party for a Cause Festival through social media, as well as television and digital advertising.

Part One: Finding
Finding (Highbury Street, 1873)
Lightning flashed from the storm, and Isabel looked into the concerned, kind face of man who was currently ruining a very expensive-looking suit to help her. She slowly pushed herself up on her elbows.
"I'm alive, I suppose!" she yelled back over the wind and rain.
The man held out his hand and she took it. He stood Isabel up on her feet, yanked off his jacket and put it around her shoulders. "Come with me. I'll take you somewhere safe." he said.
Isabel nodded, shivering. It was freezing! Did it have to be like this? When the man said that the time travel might do something to the weather. . . .She was brought in what seemed to be a horsedrawn carriage to a large house.
The people are upper class. They're rich. You'll be lucky if you can beg for a job as a maid there and search the place at night, Isabel.
She sighed and shivered again. The rich man's jacket was around her shoulders still, and he looked at her curiously. Isabel looked closely at him, and saw that he was young. Middle to late twenties, early thirties?
As she scrutinized him, Isabel felt herself descending into unconsciousness.
When she woke up, she was in a room with the man who had saved her, a woman dressed in finery that equaled his suit (which was different from the one she had seen him wear when he found her in the rain), a man who was dressed in a suit different from the first man's, and a few girls who looked her age or a little younger.
She was in some sort of large bed, and the man who had saved her was trying to get her attention.
"Where did you come from?" her savior asked.
Isabel blinked. Cover story. . . .What was it again?
"Can you tell me your name?"
she nodded.
"Well, then, what is it?"
Isabel looked around and realized that she was in some sort of bedroom, and
Isabel's strange savior nodded. "It's a beautiful name."
Isabel smiled. "Thank you. My father always said that he liked it, too."
"I haven't seen him for a long time, sir." she explained (which was true). "I lived with my mother and grandfather for most of my life." That would sound proper enough for an explanation of her 'childhood,' something vague which could have two meanings. Either would invoke pity.
"I see." he murmured. "Where is your family now?"
"We couldn't afford to live under the same roof anymore." Isabel said quietly. "My grandfather took a horse and rode it with me here. He told me that if I had a chance, it was at finding a job."
"How old are you?" the young woman asked asked.
"Sixteen, ma'am." Isabel replied (which was also true). If this lady had such good clothes, she was probably used to being respected.
"Sixteen!" Isabel's savior exclaimed. "Why, you should be out learning how to run a household, not begging for jobs in the mud."
"A girl does what she can, sir." she managed. "A'choo!" she sneezed. "Excuse me. It must be the cold."
"It must." her savior agreed. "Have you any siblings?"
Isabel nodded. "They were probably sent to other places. My brother managed to get a job as a servant somewhere before it was too late, but I know nothing of my two sisters." She paused. "My mother didn't want this, but Grandfather said that it was the only way. I'd hate to be in his position right now. . .he loves us so dearly."
Turning to the girls in the room and then the woman, he said. "You must leave us."
They all left, the woman hesitating at the door.
"I shall tell you everything later, darling." the man told her. The woman left after another moment of lingering, looking at Isabel with face full of concern.
Once the door was shut, he looked at her pityingly. "How did your family end up in this position?"
Isabel shook her head. "I overheard Grandfather one night, talking about a swindler. That's all I know. Someone may have cheated him in business and caused. . .what do you call it. . .a bankruptcy?"
"That may very well be what happened. Do you know where I can find your family?"
Isabel shook her head again. "I don't know. The house. . . . he said I could not go back. People were coming to posess it. There's nothing we can do."
"So, it's too late, then?"
"I'm afraid so, sir. I don't even know where to find him now, nor my mother. He said that they were going to a place that they never wanted us to see."
"What kind of place?"
"I don't know, sir. Slums or a poor-house, perhaps. But it seems like something that they would do. If I had to choose between giving someone a good life or keeping him or her with me, I would give them a better life."
"You would follow your grandfather's example, then?"
"If it meant seeing that person safe and happy, yes."
"But are you happy?"
Isabel shook her head. In the real or false situation, she would not be happy. "I don't see how I can be at this moment, sir."
After a long pause, the man looked at her and said, "Did you have any sort of education?"
Isabel nodded her head, still feeling a shiver from the rain. "Some. My father did leave a little money for us, and my mother used it to provide us with an education."
After a long pause, Isabel decided to ask the question that she had been wondering since she had seen this man.
"May I have the pleasure of your name, sir?" she asked.
"James Saint-Claire." he said. "Of Highbury street."
"Where am I?"
"My home."

st: xtlogit, margins
Fri, 2 Nov 2012 17:15:10 +0000
Dear statalist,
my question is basically whether I can use
margins, dydx(*)
after xtlogit, re and xtlogit, fe in order to calculate average marginal effects,
what margins, dydx(*) will tell me and whether there might be problems in the panel context (the mfx command understates marginal effects in this context, see Cameron, Trivedi, 2009, Microeconometrics using Stata, p.613). I have to say that I am always struggling with the margins command and I am still unsure what all the options do.
In addition, I have an interaction effect
(xtlogit depvar ind1 ind2 ind1Xind2 controls),
not using the factor variable language in order to use inteff.
I am not sure if inteff is outdated (meaning that margins can do the same, but I don't know how) and whether it is appropriate in this case.
Any help is appreciated. Thanks

text: Carter is every bit as athletic as Willis. 40 yd: 4.47 compared to 4.51 bench: 25 to 22 Vertical (not at combine for Carter) 40.5in to 39in And Willis was actually rather slow for LB's in the 3 cone and 20yd shuttle drills being the worst at the 20 yd shuttle and in the bottom 25% in the 3 cone. If Carter continues to develop I could see him becoming a top ILB. Not even mentioning Sean Lee is an extremely intelligent player who has a knack for being in the right spot at the right time and he has an innate ability to find the ball in the air. Four INT's in one year for a linebacker is pretty impressive.

It was an unexpected discovery over the holiday weekend. Tar balls found on Bolivar Penninsula and Galveston's East Beach were confirmed to be from the ruptured oil well that's been spewing crude since April 20th. Captain Marcus Woodring is Coast Guard sector commander for Houston-Galveston.
"Saturday, we picked the ten to twelve ping-pong sized ones over on Crystal Beach, Sunday we picked up about seven gallons total, between Crystal Beach east end of Galveston Island. Monday, we got some tar mats over on McFadden Beach, over near Port Arthur, and then I understand there were some other small tar balls on Galveston Beach and those are being cleaned up as well."
He says the makeup of the oil was inconsistent with having traveled more than 400 miles in the Gulf of Mexico.
"We'd like to determine the source to figure out if we had a one-time incident where a vessel came and maybe dropped some ballast that contained the oil and that's the source, or the other scenario is if it came via Mother Nature and along in the currents then, we have the precursor of more tar balls coming."
Officials continue to narrow down how the oil came to shore, but Woodring says they're preparing for more just in case, and ready to clean it up.
"We have plenty of people to pick up tar balls on the beach. I'd be derelict in my duty if I didn't have my people out there working this issue with the state of Texas, to ensure that the cleanups are being done properly, and also out there on patrol looking for more tar balls."
It has cost about $40-thousand dollars for collecting 15 gallons of tar balls since Sunday. BP has said it will pay for cleanup.

A child prodigy from a family of musicians (his grandfather was the acclaimed composer Giovanni Rinaldi), Giovanni Rota composed his first oratorio 'L'infanzia di San Giovanni Battista' before he entered his teens and his first lyrical comedy II Principe Porcaro at thirteen. After studying under composers Giacomo Orefice at the Milan Conservatory and IIdebrando Pizzetti and Alfredo Casella at the Accademia Nazionale di Santa Cecilia in Rome he graduated in 1930. Winning a scholarship to Philadelphia 's Curtis Institute he was taught composition by Rosario Scalero and orchestra by Fritz Reiner before returning to Italy and the University of Milan to take a degree in literature. While pursuing a career as a teacher in 1937 he was also an immensely prolific composer working in several different arenas. He composed a number of operas including: Ariodante (1942), Torquemada (1943), I due timidi (1950), II cappello di paglia di Firenze (1955), La notte di un neurastenico (1959), Lo scoiattolo in gamba (1959), Scuola di guida (1959), Aladino e la lampada magica (1968), La visita meravigliosa (1970) and Napoli milionaria (1977). He wrote the ballets: La rappresentazione di Adamo ed Eva (1957), La Strada (1965), Aci e Galatea (1971), La Molière Imaginaire (1976) and Amor di poeta (1978).
Rota was even more prodigious composing for movies being responsible for more than one hundred and sixty scores and worked closely and repeatedly with a number of directors including Mario Soldati - Le miserie del signor Travet (1945), Daniele Cortis (1947), Fuga in Francia (1948), Quel bandito sono lo (1949), Donne e briganti (1950), I tre corsari (1952), La mano dello straniero (1952), Jolanda, la figlia del corsaro nero (1952), Italia piccola (1957), Viaggio nella valle del Po alla ricerca dei cibi genuini (1957) and Chi legge" Un viaggio lungo il Tirreno (1960), Renato Castellani - Zazà (1944), La donna della montagna (1944), Mio figlio professore (1946), Sotto il sole di Roma (1948), È primavera (1948), Due soldi di speranza (1952), II brigante (1961) and II furto della Gioconda (1977)) while his most famously association was with Frederico Fellini - Lo sceicco bianco (1952), I vitellone (1953), La strada (1954), II bidone (1955), Le notti di Cabiria (1957), La dolce vita (1960), Boccaccio '70' Le tentazioni del dottor Antonio (1962), 8½ (1963), Giulietta degli spiriti (1965), Histoires extraordinaires 'Toby Dammit' (1968), Black-notes di un regista (1969 TV documentary), Satyricon (1969), I clowns (1971 TV film), Roma (1972), Amarcord (1973), Fellini's Casanova (1976) and Prova d'orchestra (1978).
Rota also composed the scores for King Vidor's War And Peace (1957), Franco Zeffirelli's The Taming Of The Shrew (1967) and Romeo And Juliet (1968), John Guillermin's Death On The Nile (1978) although his most famous and celebrated work is Francis Ford Coppola's The Godfather (1972) and the sequel The Godfather Part II in 1974. Many of Rota's soundtracks and compilations have become commercially successful soundtrack albums including 8½ (1963), The Godfather (1972), The Godfather Part II (1974), Music To The Films Of Fillini (1985), II Gattopardo (The Leopard) (1963/1994), Nino Rota: Film Music Masterworks (2007) and Giovanni Canta Nino Rota 2009.
Rota's choral, instrumental and orchestral works have also continued to find favour, the most celebrated including Nino Rota: Symphonies Nos. 1 & 2 (2009), Nino Rota Plays Nino Rota (2002), Nino Rota: Concertos (2002) and Rota: Orchestral Works Vol.2 (2013). As if his compositional endeavours alone were not enough, education remained close to his heart throughout his life and he served as director of the Bari Conservatory in Italy from 1950 until 1978.
Rota died of heart failure in 1979 at the relatively early age of sixty-seven, how he managed to pack so much work into so little time is a mystery. It would be almost impossible to find a composer quite as prolific and quite as proficient in as many different disciplines as Rota. The wealth of recordings still available and as repeatedly re-mastered and re-released pays enormous tribute to his ongoing relevance even more than three decades after his death. There have been many subsequent and contemporary composers who have name-checked him as a profound influence, Danny Elfman (composer of scores for numerous movies including Tim Burton's Batman, Edward Scissorhands, Mission Impossible, Men In Black and The Simpsons theme) refers to him as a huge inspiration while the producer Hal Willner compiled the all-star tribute album Amarcord Nino Rota in 1981 which features homage's from premier jazz artists Carla Bley, Bill Frisell and Wynton and Branford Marsalis among others.
Rota's quotes are numerous but perhaps the one that best sums up his feelings about music is 'When I'm creating at the piano I tend to feel happy, but the eternal dilemma - how can we be happy amid the unhappiness of others" I'd do everything I could to give everyone a moment of happiness. That's what's at the heart of my music.'

CEO to CEO: Delegating and Staff ROI
Your fellow CEOs discuss the hardest things about delegating and measuring staff ROI.
What is the hardest thing about delegating?
I view delegating as being akin to selling a business—once you sell, it's none of your business how things are run. In the same manner, if you are truly delegating a responsibility, it is no longer up to you how it gets done. Giving people the freedom to do the delegated task differently than you might have is probably the most difficult part of delegating.
—Alan Sparkman, CAE, executive director, Tennessee Concrete Association, Nashville, Tennessee. Email: [email protected]
The hardest things about delegating are communicating exactly what the task parameters and expectations are and relinquishing control. Since we are limited by how many hours there are in a day and our own areas of expertise and competence, it behooves us as CEOs to delegate tasks to others who may have more time to attend to the task at hand or greater expertise in the area. In addition, part of our role as an association leader is to provide opportunities for professional growth of other team members. By delegating work to others, we enable them to increase their competencies and build trust in their capabilities.
—Dale Singer, executive director, Renal Physicians Association, Rockville, Maryland. Email: [email protected]
First, there is the nagging feeling that perhaps my instructions might not have been clear and the end product may not be what I need or want. Therefore, I work hard at making sure my staff understands not only what product I might need, but how it also fits into our overall success. Being the CEO sometimes means that we have to delegate the "fun" stuff, the creative, hands-on, high-touch work that gives you the deepest interaction with your members and thought leaders in your field. Delegating means I am at least one step away from what drew me to the work in my field in the first place. I am very lucky to have a competent, bright, conscientious staff and don't often have to worry about delegated assignments.
—Stephanie McGencey, executive director, Grantmakers for Children, Youth & Families, Silver Spring, Maryland. Email: [email protected]
While delegating is essential to effective operations and capacity building, it can be challenging on several levels—from deciding what can be appropriately delegated to following through. I like the phrase "delegate, don't abdicate." It's important to give useful guidance to ensure that the outcomes and boundaries are understood. It's also important to encourage responsible progress-reporting practices and make it clear that asking for help is not a sign of weakness. This takes preparation, and each instance provides important learning that can lead to more confident and effective delegation, better talent utilization, and growth.
—Joel D. Albizo, CAE, executive director, Council of Landscape Architectural Registration Boards, Fairfax, Virginia. Email: [email protected]
How does your organization measure staff ROI?
As we are a small staff, the only financial measurement we use is performance as compared to budgeted expectations.
—Gregg B. Balko, CAE, executive director, Society for the Advancement of Material and Process Engineers, Covina, California. Email: [email protected]
We are a small staff of just two, so measuring such things is often fairly easy. I almost don't have to do annual evaluations, although I do. Since our major source of income is still dues, the only real ROI measurement is membership, and in this economy that is sometimes unfair. My main measurement is currently membership retention, which is holding its own. When it comes to things like training, it sometimes is a while before you see any ROI, but that does not lessen the need for the training. We almost never have a bad result from training.
—Bob Benedict, CAE, executive director, Plumbing, Heating, Cooling Contractors of Nevada, Las Vegas, Nevada. Email: [email protected]
In the performance review, we look at results and what it took to achieve those results. I follow Peter Drucker's advice that you pay people for results, not effort. If the investment that we make on behalf of an employee isn't producing an acceptable level of return in terms of concrete results, we have a little problem! It is also important to note that results don't always have to be expressed in financial or quantifiable terms. If a staff member is demonstrating superior customer service and is generating significant good will within the membership, we recognize that as well.
—Nelson Fabian, executive director/CEO, National Environmental Health Association, Denver, Colorado. Email: [email protected]
We measure staff/associate ROI in three significant areas. Results: Do they achieve their individual and corporate goals? Do they adhere to and advance our company's best practices? Opportunities: Do they seek to advance both the company's career as well as their own? Do they take advantage of professional-development initiatives in their sphere of influence? Innovation:
Despite their hectic work schedule, do associates seek out ways to improve internal operating systems and procedures? Do they bring to the table creative ideas to address ways to better serve the client and communicate those ideas with their peers in house?
Everyone has a different interpretation of how to measure staff ROI. By adhering to these three words, it allows us to simply and effectively measure the most valuable unlisted asset we have on our balance sheet, our people.
—G.A. Taylor Fernley, president/CEO, Fernley & Fernley. Inc., Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Email: [email protected]
CEO to CEO: When Members DissentIn this month's CEO to CEO, Teresa Evans-Hunter, CAE, MBA, executive director of National Association of Academic Advisors for Athletics, shares her thoughts on what to do when a member's opinion clashes with the staff's opinion.

Blessed with size (6-foot-1, 225 pounds), strength (a 350-pound maximum bench press) and speed (a 4.6 forty yard dash time), Channing Fugate became just the fifth running back to surpass the 3,000 yard mark in a single season in the history of Kentucky high school football.
"I'm big so I can run up the middle, but I also have the speed to cut outside," Fugate said. "[To have such a successful junior year], I had to work hard, trust the line, trust my team and the runs will be there."
Fugate's production and attitude opened the eyes of college coaches across the country. He now reports seven offers, from Stanford, Illinois, Purdue, Louisville, Indiana, Troy and Western Kentucky, and acknowledges a few favorites.
"I like Illinois and Purdue, and I like Stanford, but I haven't visited there yet, so I really don't know what it's like," Fugate said. "I don't know if I'll get to visit or not."
Another school near the top of Fugate's list is Tennessee.
"I went down to Tennessee's camp this past Tuesday," Fugate said. "I did pretty good and they said they might want to offer but they might want me to commit first, so I'm kind of confused now on what to do. I think I might have to go back down there and check it out again.
"If they were to offer, they'd be up pretty high on my list and maybe at the top, because they're so close to me. It's only like a three-hour drive to Tennessee and it's a pretty good program I'd have to consider a lot."
But despite the numerous obstacles for Stanford in Fugate's recruitment, running backs coach Willie Taggart and the rest of the Cardinal staff are still working to lure Fugate west.
"We've talked maybe three times," Fugate said of his contact with Taggart. "I just talked to him about two days ago. He sounds like a cool dude. He's real nice and says they really want me."
Fugate, who has also talked with 2010 Card commit Tate Nichols on several occasions, says the right things about Stanford.
"Stanford seems like a nice place to go to," Fugate said. "I've heard it's got good weather down there, there are good people and it's one of the top academic schools in the country."
Fugate is currently ranked as Scout.com's No. 7 fullback in the Class of 2010, but is being recruited by schools as either a running back or an H back.
"I'd like to get a shot at running back, but it depends on what school I'm at," Fugate said. "I'm [not sure about playing] running back in the ACC, because they have mostly speed backs, but if it were somewhere where they played bigger type backs, I'd like to play running back."
For now, as his junior year winds down, Fugate is working on his summer travel plans.
"I'm going to go to Tennessee again on the 18th, I think," Fugate said. "I'm going to try to get up to Illinois and Purdue one more time and then, after that, I really don't know. I also might try to get to Indiana whenever I go up to Illinois and Purdue, because they're all pretty close."
Then, sometime in the next few months, Fugate hopes to make a college decision.
"I'll commit just whenever it feels right," Fugate said. "That will probably before my senior season sometime. I don't know if it will be here shortly or just right before my senior season."
Fugate, who plans to major in chemistry with the goal of becoming a chiropractor, reports a 3.9 GPA and plans to take the ACT on June 14.

Gene expression level influences amino acid usage, but not codon usage, in the tsetse fly endosymbiont Wigglesworthia

KeywordWigglesworthia glossinidia brevipalpis; Synonymous codon usage; Amino acid usage; Glossina brevipalpis
Wigglesworthia glossinidia brevipalpis, the obligate bacterial endosymbiont of the tsetse fly Glossina brevipalpis, is characterized by extreme genome reduction and AT nucleotide composition bias. Here, multivariate statistical analyses are used to test the hypothesis that mutational bias and genetic drift shape synonymous codon usage and amino acid usage of Wigglesworthia. The results show that synonymous codon usage patterns vary little across the genome and do not distinguish genes of putative high and low expression levels, thus indicating a lack of translational selection. Extreme AT composition bias across the genome also drives relative amino acid usage, but predicted high-expression genes (ribosomal proteins and chaperonins) use GC-rich amino acids more frequently than do low-expression genes. The levels and configuration of amino acid differences between Wigglesworthia and Escherichia coli were compared to test the hypothesis that the relatively GC-rich amino acid profiles of high-expression genes reflect greater amino acid conservation at these loci. This hypothesis is supported by reduced levels of protein divergence at predicted high-expression Wigglesworthia genes and similar configurations of amino acid changes across expression categories. Combined, the results suggest that codon and amino acid usage in the Wigglesworthia genome reflect a strong AT mutational bias and elevated levels of genetic drift, consistent with expected effects of an endosymbiotic lifestyle and repeated population bottlenecks. However, these impacts of mutation and drift are apparently attenuated by selection on amino acid composition at high-expression genes.
