SAP® Patient Relationship Management Empowers Healthcare Providers With the Tools to Meet the Expectations of Cost-Conscious, Savvy and Mobile Consumers
WALLDORF, Germany - SAP AG (NYSE: SAP) today announced the launch of the SAP® Patient Relationship Management solution, designed to help healthcare providers compete for increasingly assertive, knowledgeable and price-sensitive patients. With technology-driven advances in customer service transforming most industries, patients are demanding the same control over their healthcare experience. Healthcare IT leaders are addressing multiple challenges in treatment and payment, but patients have not typically enjoyed the visibility and responsiveness they now see in their relationships with retailers or financial institutions. SAP Patient Relationship Management closes the healthcare service quality gap, by putting the patient at the center of individualized care and supporting a treatment experience rooted in customer service.
According to Gartner, "healthcare delivery organization CIOs are now faced with a new type of patient who expects to be treated like a valued customer."* A customer-centric culture is critical for healthcare providers seeking to protect and grow revenues in an increasingly competitive environment. Once nearly immune from consumer pressures, the healthcare industry — in all countries, regardless of the regulatory or delivery setting — must now earn the business of consumers who shop around and cross international borders to obtain the best value for money. Today, healthcare purchase decisions mimic those in every other industry, and are driven by more than cost alone. Treatment decisions are also shaped by peer and network feedback on social media and on overall consumer experience, most evident in developments such as the rise of medical tourism.
Designed in this context, SAP Patient Relationship Management is an integrated offering, combining the best-practice patient administration and billing functionality of the SAP® Patient Management application with the proven service functionality in the SAP® Customer Relationship Management application. With SAP Patient Relationship Management, healthcare providers can maintain a holistic view of each patient to tailor treatment decisions and offerings. The solution also provides embedded analytics to support continuous service improvement, cementing consumer loyalty over the long term.
"While it will always rightfully have a unique role, the healthcare industry's business practices and imperatives are converging with those in other industries, a process driven largely by technology," said Martin Kopp, vice president, head of Industry Business Solutions for Healthcare Providers, SAP. "With SAP Patient Relationship Management, patients will be more active participants in treatment, leading to better health outcomes, and providers will better manage their finances, strengthening the healthcare system for all."
SAP Patient Relationship Management helps streamline the patient experience along the continuum of care and embedded analytics provide performance measurement. Healthcare providers can track their performance and, guided by the solution, take the lead in patient relationships or with conditions where they have proven especially successful. Provider call center staff can enhance the patient experience through immediate response, personalized interaction and speedy resolution. Additional benefits of SAP Patient Relationship Management include:

Holladay •
Funny signs that hang from the walls of friendly family-owned diners often can be a good indicator that the food will be good and the dining experience entertaining.
That's why I immediately knew I was going to enjoy eating breakfast at Sharon's Cafe in the heart of Holladay.
Consider a few of the signs on the wall:
"Husband and dog missing, reward for dog."
"Drink coffee, do stupid things faster and with more energy."
"There is a $5 charge for whining."
I don't suspect there's much whining at Sharon's. This little diner, open only for breakfast and lunch, is operated by Sharon Ahearn, whose daughters and daughter-in-law wait tables. On the weekends, her attorney-husband, Chris, works the cash register. In fact, the couple even got married inside the diner.
Strangers often get called "hon" or "sweetie" as they get their coffee mugs filled.
"I do that because I can't remember the names," Sharon joked. "It's easier to do that. But some say that 'I'm not your sweetie.' "
Part of the name-remembering issue is that the diner features 50 or so regulars, many with the same name.
"We've got at least seven Daves, Dons and Als," she said.
So Sharon and her staff sometimes give nicknames based on the color of creamer some of the regulars use. Thus, there might be blue Dave or green Dave. There are also little Dave and handyman Dave. The four Dons who like to sit at the counter sometimes all look up at once when someone talks to "Don."
She has helped some regulars, many of them retired seniors, move into senior living centers. If everyday customers don't show up for a few days, Ahearn will call them to make sure everything is OK.
"I'd go broke if I had a senior discount," she said, laughing. "They become our family."
Indeed, how many diner owners trust their customers enough to give one of them a key? That's what Sharon did to a few of her regulars. She worried because they were lining up in the cold waiting for her to show up to open the place by 6:30 a.m. Now, on many mornings, the coffee is already made and a few regulars are in place when she arrives.
Sharon grew up in these small "mom-and-pop places," as she calls them. Her dad ran the gas station on one part of Knudsen's Corner across from the Cotton Bottom and what was then a diner called Smith's where my Aunt Ethel once spoiled me with grilled cheese sandwiches and penny candy. Sharon's mom, Lucy Stoddard, worked in diners much of her life.
After managing or waiting tables at a few local diners, Sharon decided to take a chance on opening her own business when the old Corey Anderson pie building became available.
The idea was that she wanted nights off so she could watch one of her daughters play basketball for Olympus High.
While there is nothing fancy on the menu the most expensive items are $7.75 for steak and eggs or pork chops and eggs Ahearn has learned a bit from nearly every place she has worked. Some of the menu items are different.
For example, there is Sharon's Special, consisting of two eggs, marinated pork tenderloin, potatoes, a fresh tomato and feta cheese. At lunch, a muffuletta sandwich is made from a secret recipe. The scones are great. I loved the Greek Way special, which includes home fries topped with melted Swiss and cheddar, two eggs and either ham, bacon or sausage. The smothered breakfast burrito wasn't bad, either.
Mostly, though, I loved the feeling inside the little restaurant with its red-and-white-striped tables, old license plates, Harley-Davidson signs and a painting of Sharon, no doubt done by a loyal customer, hanging on the wall.
In an age of sterile franchises, a place where you are immediately called "hon" and "sweetie" is worth savoring.

Is breastfeeding causing my period not to show up?
Hi guys, I hope you can help me. I only remember having 1 menstruation cycle after giving birth. My daughter is now 4 months old and if my memory serves me right I am delayed for 3 months already. I don't see any signs of being pregnant. I just want to know if this is normal because I am breastfeeding exclusively for the past months?

It sounds like the menstruation you may have had was what is typically experienced right after giving birth. Some women will bleed for 4-6 weeks after giving birth and this is very normal.
If you are exclusively breastfeeding, then this will usually suppress ovulation and you wouldn't have a period. Please keep in mind that exclusively breastfeeding means not using a dummy/pacifier and not giving baby any other liquids or food. It means that baby pacifies at the breast (has her sucking needs met at the breast) and baby feeds only at the breast (no bottles).
When a baby is allowed to feed and pacify at the breast as often as she wants, this will help to keep mum from ovulating. It sends a signal to the body and the body, in turn, recognizes that you are feeding a baby often, and that you don't have the resources within your body to nurture and feed another child. Thus children become naturally spaced. It takes a lot of nourishment out of mum to grow another child in her body while she is fully breastfeeding a baby. Both babies will demand nutrients from her body.
It is, however, completely fine for a mother with an older infant or toddler to breastfeed while she is pregnant and even continue breastfeeding her toddler while breastfeeding an infant. The reason is because by the time the child is an older infant or toddler, they are getting some nutrition from solids and other liquids. But the ideal food for the first 12 months of a baby's life is breastmilk.
If you are using a dummy/pacifier to pacify your baby, and/or if you are introducing other foods to her then you can be watching for signs of fertiliy and ovulation. If you watch for these signs now, you will actually know when you're going to have your next period before it happens. It's also wonderful to know how to read your body's natural signs of fertility so that you can avoid pregnancy naturally and achieve pregnancy easily depending upon where you are in life.
Please remember that babies aren't ready for this until they are at least 6 months of age - you will notice that your 4 month old has a tongue thrust which thrusts the food out of her mouth rather than helping her to swallow it. Developmentally, she just isn't ready for solids until at least 6 months of age. We have some excellent forum posts about Baby Led Weaning if you do a search for them.
Please post back and let me know if you have any questions at all about your cycle. I would be curious to know if you have had a period since your daughter was 6 weeks old.
Warm Regards,

Hi Kate,
To make it clearer, I gave birth last May 13, 2013. I bled for (if I recall it right) 4 weeks. After a month, when my daughter was 3 months old, I had a light menstruation (I cant say that this really looks like a menstruation). After that I never really had any bleeding or menstruation until now. I am just worried because we are sexually active but I don't really see any sign of pregnancy.
5th October 2013 05:54 AM #4
One more point to add; some women bleed very faintly at the time their period would have been due when they are breastfeeding. How long did this light bleeding last?
5th October 2013 05:52 AM #5
Hi kcarnonell,
When you are breastfeeding (particularly in the first 6 months) it is likely that you will either have no periods or the occasional very light period. As Kate says above, thee light period you describe could have been a continuation of your postpartum bleeding. Alternatively it may have been a light period which hasn't reappeared because of your continued (and wonderful!) breastfeeding.
When you are breastfeeding anything is 'normal' in terms of your periods.
It is thought that, in the first 6 months, breastfeeding exclusively on demand gives you a 99% chance of being infertile at this time (i.e. being unable to conceive). However, there is still this small chance that you could conceive so you may want to consider other contraception options.
Once you introduce solid food from 6 months, as Kate says above, you are more likely to become fertile.
Fertility is held off for longer if you practice 'ecological breastfeeding' i.e. as well as breastfeeding on demand (day and night) you are co-sleeping and babywearing.
To conclude, it is very unlikely that you are pregnant but there is this tiny chance (around 1% or less if you exclusively breastfeed) and a pregnancy test would be the only way to know for sure.
Warm wishes,

If you are concerned it's best to take a pregnancy test to put your mind at ease. That's the best way to know for certain whether you are pregnant or not.
Otherwise just watch your signs of fertility, and if you see your secretions becoming more wet, that's an indication that you may be preparing to ovulate.
Warm Regards,

I have a greater understanding of the saying, "Texas is a whole other country." After spending six days in New York City, this couldn't be more apparent. I absolutely loved the city, but I am so glad to be back on Texas soil.
We—my husband, Breech, our daughters, Ashley and Skylar, my mother in law, Tina and father-in-law, Bob—all journeyed to New York City together. It was a graduation gift for our daughter, Ashley.
We arrived in NYC on Saturday with no problems. After checking into our hotel we took off walking to see this grand city. We walked and we walked. People were everywhere. Cabs were honking, which I later discovered was the norm there. It was just crazy at first—definitely not what I am accustomed to. We walked to famous Times Square. Wow! What a sight—lighted billboards, stores everywhere and plenty of people, more people that I could have ever imagined.
There were many different origins, races and ethnicities; and languages spoken I didn't even understand. It was a bit overwhelming for a small town country girl! Then we found comfort—the M&M Store. It is three levels high. The top two levels consist of tubes of every color and kind of M&M candy made. You get a bag, place under a tube and fill as much as you like. Let's just say, we ate all we bought the first night and went back before we left and brought some home with us!
Before we left on our trip we had been offered advice on where to eat and what to see and do. While we were in Times Square we decided to try one of our recommended eateries, John's Pizzeria. I'm so thankful someone told us about this place. At first we thought it tasted so good because we were so hungry, but after eating at another pizzeria later in our trip we knew John's was really that good. It became one of our favorites.
Sunday was an exciting day for our family. For those of you that don't know, I married into the "baseball hall of fame" family. They love baseball. So it was a very special day to go to Yankee Stadium and watch the interleague game between the New York Yankees and the New York Mets. It was a nail-biter to the end, but the Yankees prevailed by winning it with a walk off home run in the bottom of the ninth inning. I couldn't have asked for a better first-time experience at Yankee Stadium.
Another first for my family was the subway ride to and from the game. We were standing there wondering if this was the right subway to be on so we took the plunge and asked a gentleman standing next to us and kindly responded yes we were on the right train, and then of course his next question was, "Where are you from?" We responded with, "Texas." He smiled and went on to tell us he grew up in Amarillo and other parts of Texas. Whew, what a relief—this guy wasn't going to kill us!! He was very nice and was going to the game as well so we tagged along with him. It was comforting to know our first real encounter with a New Yorker was with one who was a Texas native.
Monday was the limo tour. Having six people in our group, this seemed like the thing to do. We were able to see lots of the city and cover more ground this way. We stopped at Central Park and saw Tavern on the Green. Although it is no longer a restaurant, it was still nice to see. We went on to Strawberry Fields and then back into the town part of the city. We stopped at Trump Towers, walked down Fifth Avenue, got a hot dog, bought some chocolate and then continued on with our tour. We ended the night having dinner at a steakhouse. New York prices were a shock. The tab for six people was $550.
Our agenda for Tuesday began with the 9-11 Memorial. I can't even begin to put into words what it was like to be there. It felt like sacred ground. It was very humbling to walk up the waterfall memorial and run my fingers over the names of those people who had fallen on the very ground where I stood.
After a somber morning our spirits were lifted that evening by a mesmerizing Broadway performance of "The Lion King." The cast, the costumes, the special effects, the orchestra—it was an experience in itself. I look forward to the day I can go back and just watch Broadway shows. I could spend days watching play after play.
Wednesday morning we took a cruise line tour on the Hudson River and around Ellis Island. It was cloudy and misty that morning, but later the skies cleared which made for a wonderful day. The tour was very interesting to me, exploring a lot of history on and around the island. Lady Liberty was just as beautiful as I had imagined, standing tall and proud. Just next to the cruise line was the U.S.S. Intrepid aircraft carrier. The Space Shuttle was also aboard the ship, but was not open yet for tours. Maybe next time!!
After the cruise line tour we decided to see other parts of the city we had not yet visited. We drove through China Town, Little Italy, Alphabet City and found ourselves at Katz's Deli. That is the deli where Meg Ryan did her famous scene in the movie, "When Harry Met Sally," that prompted a woman at another table in the deli (played by Estelle Reiner, director Rob Reiner's mother) to say, "I'll have what she's having."
Pictures of stars who have visited the deli cover the walls top to bottom. We looked, we taste tested and we left with two sandwiches and our picture taken outside of Katz's. We had such a great time!
Every morning while I'm getting ready for work, I have NBC's "Today Show" on. So, being in New York, I couldn't wait to go to the "Today Show" studio. On our last day there, Breech, Skylar and I got up early and walked a few blocks to the show. There they were—Matt Lauer and Ann Curry; Al was in Maryland that day. I'm looking at Ann about to take her seat behind the desk and she looks out at the crowd and I start waving like a mad person, and she smiles and waves back! We watch the show for about an hour outside on the plaza. We move over closer to the set and realize they have placed Catherine Zeta-Jones in the studio right in front of us. As they conduct the interview with her we can be seen on TV behind her peering in from outside. It was one of my most famous moments in New York.
We continued to take in the city the rest of the day; Rockefeller Center, Radio City Music Hall, more food, more walking. We saw some incredible sights, journeyed through time at a museum, rode a subway, limo and a cab. We ate lots of food, walked many miles, met some really great people and made lots of memories that will last a lifetime. I look forward to going back, but so thankful for the wide open spaces of Texas that I call home.

Penn Game Notes (PDF) / Princeton Game Notes (PDF)
The Series with Princeton
*The most historic rivalry in the Ivy League, the Quakers and the Tigers have met 227 times in men's basketball, with Penn holding a 123-104 advantage in the series.
*That said, Princeton has won two in a row and seven of the last eight meetings over Penn. (Prior to that, Penn had won five in a row, eight of nine, and 13 of 15.)
*Penn won the last meeting that took place here at The Palestra, 82-67 on Jan. 30, 2012. Princeton had won the previous three played here before last season.
*The first meeting this season took place exactly two months ago, with Princeton defeating Penn 65-53 at Jadwin Gym. T.J. Bray hit six three-pointers en route to a game-high 23 points, while Ian Hummer scored 13 and Denton Koon added 10. For Penn, Tony Hicks had 16 points to lead the Quakers, while Darien Nelson-Henry scored 11.
The Ivy Standings...
*Princeton will finish second behind Harvard no matter what happens tonight. The Tigers will end up 10-4 with a win, 9-5 with a loss.
*Penn will tie Brown for fourth place with a win tonight, both teams at 7-7 (the Quakers swept the Bears this season). With a loss, Penn finishes alone in fifth place at 6-8.
About Princeton
The Tigers (16-11, 9-4 Ivy) entered last weekend in first place in the Ivy League standings, but lost to Yale (71-66) and Brown (80-67) and saw Harvard pass them in the standings and earn the title. Ian Hummer continues to be a frontrunner for Ivy League Player of the Year honors (the All-Ivy teams and postseason honors will be announced tomorrow); he is second in the Ivy League in scoring (16.2 ppg) and assists (4.1 apg), and fifth in rebounding (6.4 rpg). Denton Koon is averaging 10.6 points per game, while T.J. Bray is averaging 9.8 ppg and has 99 assists.
Home is Where the Wins Are
Penn entered the 2012-13 season with 798 wins at The Palestra, which opened in 1927. In an informal survey of the other NCAA Division I programs, only Washington (921 wins at Hec Edmundson Pavilion) and the Quakers' opponent on January 2, Butler (812 wins at Hinkle Fieldhouse), boast more wins in their current home than the Quakers. The Edmundson Pavilion was opened in 1927, while the Bulldogs opened Hinkle in 1928.
Ivy Honors For Hicks
Freshman Tony Hicks has been named Ivy League Rookie of the Week each of the last two weeks, becoming the third different Penn player to earn the honor this season (after Jamal Lewis and Darien Nelson-Henry). Hicks has been simply outstanding over Penn's last four games, averaging 23.8 points per game and shooting 35 of 63 (55.6 percent) from the field in that time.
Fire on the Line
Hicks has been particularly prolific at the foul line during Ivy play. He went 0-of-3 in the first P-P matchup; in the 12 Ivy League games since then, he has gone 40-of-45 (.889 percent).
Balancing Act
Eleven different players had at least one double-figure scoring game for Penn this season; three different players (and nearly a fourth) had double-doubles this season; nine different players led the Quakers in scoring in a game; and nine different players led Penn in rebounds in a game this season.
Quaker Notemeal at Yale
*For the third straight game, Penn had fewer turnovers (13) than its opponent (14).
*Sophomore Henry Brooks led Penn with five rebounds, as he had done the night before; he became the ninth different player to lead the Quakers in boards in a game.
Notemeal at Brown
*Penn earned a season sweep of Brown for the second year in a row.
*For the first time in five games, Penn's bench points (23) were more than its opponent (13).
*For the first time this season, Penn won a game when it shot a worse percentage from the field than its opponent (previously 0-15).
*Brown set an opponent high in the Jerome Allen coaching era with 26 turnovers.
*Penn had 10 steals for the second straight game; the Quakers only other double-figure steal totals came in the first two games.
*Junior Miles Cartwright scored a game-high 25 points, giving him 53 in two games against Brown this season.
*It was Cartwright's seventh 20-point game this season (13th career) and his 18th double-figure scoring game this season (51st career).
*Cartwright scored the game's final eight points, and also had a stretch in the first half where he scored 15 of Penn's 17 points.
*Cartwright was 4-of-4 on three-pointers, the second time in three games a Penn player has done that (also Dau Jok vs. Dartmouth on March 1).
*Sophomore Patrick Lucas-Perry tied a season/career high with 15 points, his fourth double-figure scoring game this season, and also set a career best with three assists.
*Junior Cameron Gunter set a season/career high with 18 minutes played, scoring four points and grabbing a board.

very thankful to find this product.
By Gymnastics Grandma
from Indiana
I needed something to put on my feet after my evening bath. Did not want to wear shoes all of the time. Took many years to finally find a house slipper that provided the same support that my shoes do. So happy now. I have super high arches and have intense pain when they are not held in place. Glad someone thought of people like me, who cannot go barefoot anymore. Love them. when these wear out, I will purchase another pair. I have had them for a few weeks now, and they are holding up very well. I am a hard walker. Please let me know if they go on sale. I would appreciate that very much. I will always let someone with feet like mine know of this great find. Thank you very much.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Well done
By customer
Well made and functional slippers for a person that requires arch support that is sorely lacking in all the other vendors selections.
Missed These When They Wore Out
By Judesters
from Dearborn Heights
I am in my late 40's and also wear orthotics in my shoes to prevent a relapse of plantar fasciitis.I wear these all the time while at home. They support my feet and arch very well. I washed my other pair too often and wore them out, so threw them away. I missed them and knew walking barefoot on hardwood floors was not good for my feet. I bought another pair, am happy again and do not ever want to be without! I had tried another brand and they scrunched my toes-I gave them away to a smaller footed person. These I like cause you can wear them with or without socks-they are adjustable.

wonderful, comfortable slipper
By June Bug
from Ontario Canada
Daily use as a slipper
some flaws
By CC
from Baton Rouge, LA
The sole and arch support are very good as advertised, however, the wide velcro-type straps don't hold the foot in place in the shoe. You constantly have to tighten them, they don't quite hold your foot in the right places.Your foot slips in the shoe making it unstable to walk in. Very unattractive as well.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Good and bad
By Sara
from Long Branch
These have good padding and a good arch, so they provide support, but they're very stiff and clunky on the bottom, so they don't feel nearly as good as sneakers do for my heel spurs. Much better than my previous slippers, though.
I won't buy this again
By E the shoes collector
from Temescal Valley
Even that I can adjust the slipper my foot slide to the front site and I don't like that they are not washable.
Mixed review
from Long Branch, NJ
These have more support than my regular slippers, but they're inflexible on the bottom, which can also bother my feet after a while. A good alternative, but not a fix-all. Some arch, but I'd prefer more.
I have experienced substantial improvement
By Nan
from Fort Worth, Texas
The shoes were stiff and bulky at first, but soon conformed to my feet for a comfortable feeling and good arch support. Before I get out of bed in the morning, I do flexing exercise with my foot with painful plantar fasciitis, then slip my feet into the shoe. I can now walk without the shooting pain like I had experienced before.

Choose from Burt's Bees collection of natural lip balms to formulated to moisturizer, hydrate and nourish. Collecting Beeswax on Nature's ScheduleBees know how to do their job, so Burt's Bees leaves them alone and minds their own beeswax until the time is right. That's how they ensure their beeswax cultivating process protects the Bees' normal production cycle. Bees produce a wax honeycomb where they raise their young and store honey and pollen. When it's full, they cap off the honeycomb and move on to build another hive. Then, and not before, is when they cultivate the beeswax, ensuring the normal cycle of nature. Burt's Bees Frequently Asked QuestionsAre your products hypoallergenic?There is no defined methodology to test for allergic reactions in beauty or personal care products, nor does the FDA regulate use of the term "hypoallergenic." Consequently, Burt's Bees does not position their products as hypoallergenic. Are your products safe for pregnant women to use?Burt's Bees recommends that any expectant mother check with her physician before changing her skin care routine with their products or any other line of products. How long will my Burt's Bees products stay fresh, and what is the best way to store them?Burt's Bees products are made with natural ingredients, and they purposely present their products in smaller portions so you finish them while their and providing their maximum effectiveness. As such, they recommend you store creams and oils in a cool, dark place away from direct sunlight and heat. Creams may be store in their cartons for extra protection. Where are Burt's Bees products made?Over 95% of Burt's Bees products are made right in their own manufacturing plant in Durham, NC. The rest are made by other respectable American manufacturers. Do you test on animals and do your products contain animal derived ingredients?Burt's Bees does NOT conduct product or ingredient tests of any kind on animals. A few of their products contain ingredients derived from animals such as beeswax, royal jelly, milk and carmine. I am allergic to bees. Can I still use your products? Burt's Bees does not use actual bee venom in their products - only bee by-products, such as honey, beeswax, royal jelly and honey powder. However, if you are allergic to bee by-products, then Burt's Bees does not suggest using their products. They recommend that you contact your health care provider when changing your skin care regimen to find out which products are best for you.

Rugby team boosts results in annual blood drive
By Marshall Swanson, University Magazine Group, firstname.lastname@example.com
The annual Carolina-Clemson Blood Drive is one of the largest collegiate donations of its kind in the country, generating more than 4,000 units of blood on the Columbia campus alone.
A wide variety of people are responsible for the success of the effort, but special credit has to go to Jeff Smolka and the Carolina Rugby Team, which has lent an extraordinary level of support to the drive since 2001 when donations were hovering in the 1,800-unit range.
"We've won the drive nine out of the 11 years that we've been involved, and our effort with the Sorority and Fraternity Council has significantly turned the event around," said Smolka, an information technology project manager with South Carolina Business One-Stop, an internet facing component of the S.C. Department of Revenue and other state agencies. "I attribute the turnaround to a lot of the camaraderie we've had with the folks that are leading the blood drive. The work we've been able to achieve with the steering committee has been significant. We've come up with some creative approaches to enable innovative ideas through the years."
The rugby team, which recently celebrated its 45th anniversary on campus, became involved in the blood drive in 2000. Smolka, '88 and '90 masters, was ending a stint as the team's coach (he was a team member from 1984 to 1988) and was looking for ways to stay involved with the squad while also devoting more time to raising a family.
The team decided to join the blood drive's steering committee to help promote the drive within the university's sports club community after realizing that Clemson had won the event in 11 out of its first 15 years.
In the 12 years that followed, the team has always been represented on the steering committee along with 12 representatives of sororities and fraternities.
The team's members love helping put up equipment needed for the drive on the night before the event and then taking it down and reloading it into Red Cross trucks on Friday night.
In addition to serving on the organizational body of the blood drive, Smolka has also given blood himself every year since 2001 and donated as a student at the university.
"It's a great opportunity to give back," he said, adding that this year, taking part in the drive is also an opportunity to help people in the Northeast affected by Hurricane Sandy. Hundreds of blood drives in the region were canceled because of the storm.
As a result, a portion of the blood collected during the Carolina-Clemson Blood Drive will be used to help those needing blood transfusions in areas affected by the storm. The drive also will be a collection point for monetary donations from anyone who wants to reach out to hurricane victims.
Beyond the needs posed by the storm, however, the Carolina-Clemson Blood Drive provides a good opportunity for everyone who can not only donate blood but also lead by getting involved in a service project, Smolka said. And it has been a great way for him to stay involved with the rugby team even while raising three kids.
"The rugby teams doesn't want to just go to the university and ask about what it can do for us. We also want to lead by saying, 'Here's something we're doing for the university,'" he said. "The rugby team wasn't asked to come up with a philanthropy project. We developed the idea, said we'd do it, and we're excited about being an integral part of it."
The blood drive will save thousands of lives and touch untold numbers of others.
"You've got a great rivalry and you're using it for a common good for the citizens of South Carolina, which is an awesome thing," Smolka said. "I tell everybody that I get more out of doing this than I actually put into it. I love coming down to the campus and seeing the students and listening to their enthusiasm. It's invigorating and very fulfilling."

Imagine you're Green Mountain Coffee Roasters Inc. (NASDAQ:GMCR). Your Keurig single-cup coffee brewer is wildly successful, and you recently struck deals with Starbucks (NASDAQ:SBUX) to carry the Seattle coffee giant's grounds as exclusive cups for the machine. Shares of GMCR stock are up 700% since 2009 and have more than doubled since Jan. 1, 2011. Green Mountain Coffee revenue has increased from about $340 million in fiscal 2007 to a forecast of $2.7 billion for fiscal 2011!
It's good to be Green Mountain. Right?
Well, now imagine that after all this success at GMCR, a tiny family company in California is shouldering in on your turf. Not only is it imitating your ideas — but it actually is using the fancy Keurig machines Green Mountain produces as a selling point!
It would be frustrating. It would be infuriating. But it appears to be completely legal.
Here's the score: Rogers Family Co., a coffee roaster and distributor based in Lincoln, Calif., has developed single-cup pods completely compatible with's Keurig famous coffee brewer. The closely-held company apparently has been scheming on the development for four years, according to a Bloomberg report, and sidesteps the patent protection of Keurig's K-Cups because it uses a mesh screen on the bottom of the pots instead of plastic.
But here's the real payoff: Not only does this allow the family-operated business to enter into the booming Keurig market, but it could give Rogers a chance at making a big splash with perhaps the cheapest brew out there. A 12-pack of Rogers Family's cups will have a recommended retail price of $6.99 and will be distributed to supermarkets including Costco (NASDAQ:COST), Safeway (NYSE:SWY) and SuperValu (NYSE:SVU).
By contrast, Dunkin' Donuts (NASDAQ:DNKN) branded K-Cups sell for $11.99 per 12-pack. Caribou Coffee (NASDAQ:CBOU) branded K-Cups sell for $7.99 and up. Starbucks has not yet started selling its Keurig-compatible pods but likely will be at the top of this range considering its premium brand.
Of course, flavor is the unknown here. When java junkies reach for their morning coffee, they care about the taste perhaps more than the price tag.
But in this tough consumer spending environment, there's something to be said for low-cost alternatives. Rogers Family Co. might have a hit on its hands with its super-cheap cups.
Presuming Green Mountain doesn't find a way to shut it down, that is.

GSA Auctions' First Year Nets More Than $17.6M
January 17, 2002
Contact: Deborah K. Ruiz, (202) 501-1231
WASHINGTON, DC - There's no question that its first year has been anything but quiet. Since its debut last January, the U.S. General Services Administration's auction Web site, GSAAuctions, has established itself as a huge e-success, achieving sales of collecting more than $17.6 million from the sale of items ranging from airplanes to yachts as well as common use items such as office furniture and clothingmilitary surplus to goods seized in drug raids.
A year after the launch of GSAAuctions, public enthusiasm remains strong for GSA's concept of Web-enabled auctions and over 36,728 active registered users continue to use the service to bid electronically on a wide array of federal assets. The GSAAuctions Web site has been viewed more than 3 million times. As of today, 10,751 auctions have closed for a total dollar amount of $17,683,193 in proceeds. The proceeds collected from the auctions are allocatedsplit between between GSA GSA, which retainsand other federal agencies. While GSA retains a portion of the proceeds to cover operating and overhead costs, and the federal agencies that initially reported the property to GSA.
In its freshman year, GSAAuctions typically saw items such as surplus vehicles and office furnishings among its featured items; however, a number of more exotic items occasionally crossed its path, including an Italian-made helicopter, a 3-carat diamond, a 1979 Bentley Rolls-Royce and a Coast Guard cutter.
Marking its first anniversary today, the site continues to represent a significant - and wildly successful - change in the agency's strategy for disposing of personal property the government no longer needs. The agency has historically used traditional auctions to dispose of surplus and excess property, but by taking the process online, GSA quickly noticed an escalating interestaverage 30 percent increase in Internetparticipation in government auctions. Within four months of its launch, the site attracted 19,000 registered usersbidders and realized salesaised of more than $1.5 million.
"GSAAuctions has been successful because we have combined the personal computer, the power of the Internet and the adventure of the Saturday morning garage sale and placed it within the convenience of the home. It's designed for the public and built on the premise that we must serve all taxpayers well. Where else but at GSAAuctions� can you bid on government personal property items 24 hours a day, seven days a week?"What may have contributed to the success of the GSA Auctions Web site is our understanding that John Q. Public does not have 24 hours a day, seven days a week to hang out at auctions, see the merchandise and make bids," said Victor Arnold-Bik, GSA Chief of Sales.
"By using the online format, we've made it easier for prospective bidders to see pictures of the items, get information and make bids at 3 a.m. if they so choose." Part of GSA's Federal Supply Service, the Property Management Division launched the GSAAuctions Web site to cocomplete GSA's transformation to an all-electronic asset management system.
GSA is a centralized federal procurement and property management agency created by Congress to improve government efficiency and help federal agencies better serve the public. It acquires, on behalf of federal agencies, office space, equipment, telecommunications, information technology, supplies and services. GSA, comprised of 14,000 associates, provides services and solutions for the office operations of over 1 million federal workers located in 8,300 government -owned and leased buildings in 1,600 U.S. communities.

Dear Linda, Judy & Joy
My thoughts and prayers are with you and your families. As you all know, your Mom and Dad were like second parents to me when I was growing up. I can still picture your Dad tending his roses and working in his vegetable garden in the back yard. (Even though I wouldn't eat vegetables back then!) He was such a gentle spirit--you are all blessed to have had such wonderful parents.
Thanks for visiting my Mom--it meant so much to her to see all of you again.
Sally (Miller) Beard

The Whole Body Donation Program serves the instructional needs of thousands of students and health care providers through all of the medical courses or studies at Wake Forest using donated human bodies or tissues. Our mission is to improve patient care outcomes and to enhance patient safety with hands-on training for our students, our hospital professional staff, and health care professionals that travel to Wake Forest from around the world for applied learning courses. These donations enable courses, procedure-training events and research studies that save lives, develop or advance new therapeutic procedures, new medical devices and new methods of treatment to lengthen and improve the quality of life of many patients. Cadavers are a fundamental requirement for medical or physician assistant students learning anatomy. They are also vital for experienced doctors and other health care providers to develop or practice clinical skills and procedures that improve patient treatment outcomes and for answering challenging medical research questions. First responders providing medical aid for local and regional law enforcement teams as well as military personnel and medics all benefit from hands-on training in the center. On behalf of all of our learners and all of their patients, we want to thank you for considering this significant way of leaving a legacy to improve the health care of future generations.

Was $99.95 NOW $49.95
This is the neck massager that provides penetrating, deep tissue or soothing, light pressure massage. Unlike typical neck massagers that only provide vibration, this model uses two rollers that rotate in two directions to simulate the kneading of the human hand for focused, deep pressure that releases trigger points around the cervical vertebrae or for gentle pressure similar to Swedish massage. Ideal for providing relief from muscle pain and strain brought on by everyday activities like driving, flying, or office work, the massager is made from comfortable foam, sculpted to fit comfortably around the neck. Two pull handles allow you to compress the massager against specific areas of your neck and shoulders. Massage style and intensity is managed using the attached hand-held controller. Plugs into AC or a car's DC power with included adapters. 12" L x 12" W x 7" D. (4 1/4 lbs.)

hits the spot
By harry
from Calgary Alberta Canada
Although it takes a bit to get the proper position on your neck and in a comfortable sitting/lying position, once there, it feels like a real massage. Totally focused on the neck only, you can get it to dig in as deep as you like. Setting it to rotate in both directions is a big plus. Extremely relaxing and has relieved tension headaches.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Watch your hair!!
By ExpressSuperFan
from Boston, Ma
This is an awesome deep tissue massager! Just make sure NO hair is down near the nape of your neck, and pull hair up and then frequently brush hair upwards to prevent it from getting caught. While it doesn't catch IN the apparatus, it rubs the hair into circles and knots it terribly. the first time i used it i had to put a TON of argan oil in my hair overnight before I could unknot my hair!! I thought I was going to have to shave the back of my head! So, pun intended, heads up long haired users!!

Much to Bulky & Cumbersome
By Lin
from New Jersey
It's a good device but needs to be made lighter and more flexible for woman as this was a mother's day gift for my significant other. She has since using it for about a week, returned it for a refund.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend
Hammacher Schlemmer Response: While we regret that this product didn't delight you, we are gratified that you took advantage of our unconditional Lifetime Guarantee. Although our goal is your complete satisfaction with every product, we understand you may encounter the rare occasion when an item doesn't meet your expectations.

The Massager provides an excellent neck massage but provides no relief to the lower neck and shoulders. It has a lot of functions and is easy to use but did not function as required for me.

The Vote is still out

Neck massager
By Applesauce Mom
from Las Vegas, NV
This product is uncomfortable to wear and the pressure is painful. It also sits in an awkward position on the shoulders. If you tilt your head backwards to relax, it grinds to a halt.
Not for me.
By Ginger
from Alexandria, VA
The quality of the massager was great. I have a short neck so the rollers were too high and missed my neck.
By MTT
from Morris, IL
Slows down to a grind when you lay back on it.

Nice Concept, Needs more Powerful Motor
By Paullini
from Chicagoland, IL
The neck massager gives a pretty good massage, but the motor seems to strain and bog down when you want it to give a deeper massage.

Trying to determine if I like it or not.
By Ma Jo
from Iowa City, Iowa

text: Hey, your story, you tell it but if your interested, here is what the actual stats show. http://espn.go.com/nfl/player/stats/_/id/11259/mike-jenkins 2011 GP 12. That would mean that 4 games were missed. 2012 GP 9. Now, we know that we have played 12 games so far so that would mean that 3 games were missed. I mean, you've made it clear that I am no genius but that would indicate to me that Jenkins has missed 7 games in 2 years. I don't know........ Show me where anybody ever said Scandrick is better then Jenkins but I do think you should make use of the ignore setting. Good call.

Sam Smith breaks into Hot 100's top ten with 'Stay With Me'
Listen to Sam Smith on iHeartRadio
Sam Smith is seeing a surge on U.S. charts this week with his new single "Stay With Me." The pop-rock ballad from the rising British singer has hit number ten on the Billboard Hot 100.
"Stay With Me" jumped up nine positions from last week, and the song is also sitting at number three on the Digital Songs chart. It sold 167,000 copies.
Sam has two other songs on the Hot 100 as well. He's featured on "Latch" by Disclosure at number 17 and "La La La" by Naughty Boy at number 41.
The 22-year-old is gaining traction on this side of the pond after coming out as gay in an interview with Fadar magazine two weeks ago. His debut album In The Lonely Hour arrives in the U.S. on June 17th.

text: I'm glad Costanzo's back. He's good minor league depth, and if he ends up in AA, it could really get the Pensacola fans excited about their new team. As for Ramirez, I had figured he retired or something to that effect. After playing 14 games in Bakersfield, he was put on the restricted list and never seen again. I wonder if the Reds are considering converting him to a pitcher. After all, he has a decent arm (although not plus-plus) and pitched 4 strikeouts over 2 innings last year.

Firstly both Neil & Paul would like to say a big thank you to everyone who came last night.
Major thanks also to: all the fighters,coaches, Marc Goddard, Michael and the Srike & Submit team, all our judges, runners, film crew, ring girls, waitress's, security, DJ, Mr Bower. And everyone else who assisted in making the night a success.
The metrodome went to great lengths to ensure everything ran smoothly, so big thanks to them.
Ian Dean, always a pleasure to see him, he adds so much value to the show, thank you for making the journey my friend, the benefit in having you there is immense.
My apologies to all about the medics (or one of them). They need to be educated for the sport they are there for and unfortunatley it was their first mma show. They did a great job in the safety of the fighters but one of the attitudes of their team was not as good as it could have been, my apologies.

Reading Level: Age 12 and up
In modern day Tanzania, the word for albino and nothing is the same. 13-year-old Habo is an albino who feels that he is nothing but a freak of nature that brings bad luck to his family. When the fatherless family loses their farm, they journey to a region where Habo learns that albinos are hunted and killed for their body parts. Albino's body parts are used by witch doctors to make good luck charms. Pursued by a bounty hunter Habo runs for his life. In the Dar Es Salaam, he meets a kind, blind sculptor who shows Habo the possibility of a new life.
In her riveting, realistic debut novel, Sullivan focuses on the treatment of albinos as she portrays the thoughts and feelings of a wonderful boy who comes to realize his worth. The appendix includes a list of organization who help albinos in East African countries.

No. 17 Softball Begins Five-Game Road Trip at Middle Tennessee
April 16, 2013
LEXINGTON, Ky. - On the heels of winning seven of its last nine games, including a victory over top-five ranked Florida, the No. 17 University of Kentucky softball team is set to begin a five-game road trip this week, starting with a non-conference doubleheader at Middle Tennessee State University on Wednesday. Game one is scheduled for a 4 p.m. ET first pitch at Blue Raider Softball Stadium in Murfreesboro, Tenn.
After the doubleheader, Kentucky (31-12, 9-6 Southeastern Conference) will continue the road trip west as it heads to Fayetteville, Ark., for a three-game set with Arkansas, who is receiving votes in both collegiate softball polls after winning its series against top-10 ranked Missouri last weekend. Game one Friday is set for a 7 p.m. ET first pitch, followed by a 1 p.m. ET start on Saturday and 2 p.m. ET start on Sunday. Live stats from all three games will be available on UKathletics.com.
The Wildcats are coming off a 4-2 week that saw several historic accomplishments, including sixth-year head coach Rachel Lawson becoming the winningest head coach in school history. Freshman pitcher Kelsey Nunley also earned her 20th win of the season to become the first player in school history to accomplish that feat in a single season. UK athletics director Mitch Barnhart also announced Saturday during a dedication ceremony the naming of UK's new $9.5 million facility as John Cropp Stadium after longtime administrator John Cropp, who started the softball program at UK.
Kentucky moved it up to No. 17 in both the USA Today/National Fastpitch Coaches Association Top 25 and ESPN.com/USA Softball Top 25. Last week, the Wildcats were 18th in the USA Today/NFCA poll and 19th in the ESPN.com/USA Softball poll. Kentucky currently sits seventh in the NCAA.com RPI listings, which is its highest mark in school history.

BronchiectasisAcquired bronchiectasis; Congenital bronchiectasis
Bronchiectasis is destruction and widening of the large airways.
- If the condition is present at birth, it is called congenital bronchiectasis.
- If it develops later in life, it is called acquired bronchiectasis.
Bronchiectasis is often caused by recurrent inflammation or infection of the airways. Sometimes it begins in childhood after a more severe lunginfection or inhaling a foreign object.
Cystic fibrosis causes about a third of all bronchiectasis cases in the United States. Certain genetic conditions can also cause bronchiectasis, including primary ciliary dyskinesia and immunodeficiency syndromes.
The condition can also be caused by routinely breathing in food particles while eating.
Symptoms often develop gradually, and may occur months or years after the event that causes the bronchiectasis.
They may include:
- Bluish skin color
- Breath odor
- Chronic cough with large amounts of foul-smelling sputum
- Clubbing of fingers
- Coughing up blood
- Cough that gets worse when lying on one side
- Fatigue
- Paleness
- Shortness of breath that gets worse with exercise
- Weight loss
- Wheezing
Exams and Tests
When listening to the chest with a stethoscope, the doctor may hear small clicking, bubbling, wheezing, rattling, or other sounds, usually in the lower lobes of the lungs.
Tests may include:
- Aspergillosis precipitin test (to check for signs of the aspergillosis fungus)
- Alpha-1 antitrypsin blood test
- Chest x-ray
- Chest CT
- Sputum culture
- Complete blood count (CBC)
- Genetic testing, including sweat test for cystic fibrosis
- PPD skin test to check for a prior tuberculosis infection
- Serum immunoglobulin electrophoresis
Treatment is aimed at controlling infections and bronchial secretions, relieving airway obstruction, and preventing complications.
Regular, daily drainage to remove bronchial secretions is a routine part of treatment. A respiratory therapist can show the patient coughing exercises that will help.
Antibiotics, bronchodilators, and expectorants are often prescribed for infections.
Surgery to resect the lung may be needed if medicine does not work or if the patient has massive bleeding.
Outlook (Prognosis)
The outlook depends on the specific cause of the disease. With treatment, most people can lead normal lives without major disability.
Possible Complications
- Cor pulmonale
- Coughing up blood
- Low oxygen levels (in severe cases)
- Recurrent pneumonia
When to Contact a Medical Professional
Call your health care provider if:
- Chest pain or shortness of breath gets worse
- There is a change in color or amount of the phlegm you cough up, or if it is bloody
- Other symptoms get worse or do not improve with treatment
The risk may be reduced if lung infections are promptly treated.
Childhood vaccinations and a yearly flu vaccine help reduce the chance of some infections. Avoiding upper respiratory infections, smoking, and pollution may also reduce your risk of infection.
