Woodrow Wilson Center for International Scholars in Washington Forum
18 September 2007
UNAIDS Executive Director Peter Piot participated in a forum at the Woodrow Wilson Center for International Scholars in Washington, D.C., discussing the United States' important role in the global AIDS response and the upcoming reauthorization of the U.S. President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief. During his speech, Dr Piot noted the leadership role that has been played by the United States in addressing the global AIDS epidemic, and called on the country to maintain and strengthen this commitment. "We must accelerate our efforts, and broaden them—by bolstering our long-term, sustainable efforts to fight this disease," he said.

The collective action of two or more people towards a mutually shared aim or outcome. This may extend beyond electroacoustic music to collaboration across art forms (e.g. musician and dancer or video artist) or disciplines (e.g. musician and computer programmer or hardware designer). Although in evidence in virtually all forms of traditional and contemporary music-making, the term has not been used as widely as it is in, for example, theatre, performance art, dance or the visual arts.

INGLEWOOD, Calif. (May 1, 2010)-Medaglia d'Amour made a successful transition into graded stakes company with a victory in the $100,000 Wilshire Handicap on Saturday at Hollywood Park.
Well positioned close to the lead by jockey Alonso Quinonez, the 4-year-old Medaglia d'Oro filly out of the Blushing John mare Izara wrested the advantage from pace setter Czechers with about an eighth of a mile to run and went on to the victory despite drifting out some nearing the wire.
Now undefeated in three races on turf, the 3-1 second choice in the Grade III ran the mile in 1:34.31 while winning by 1 ¼ lengths over 2-1 favorite Cat By The Tale.
Owned by Kristina Cecil, the wife of trainer Ben Cecil, and Zillah Reddam, Medaglia d'Amour has won three of four lifetime. She increased her earnings to $116,200.
Bred in Kentucky by the Allen E. Paulson Living Trust, Medaglia d'Amour paid $8.40, $4.20 and $3.20."She's awesome, something very special,'' said Quinonez, after his first graded stakes win at Hollywood Park. "My instructions were to lay right behind the speed. They were going pretty slow, so I attacked early. When she made the lead, she was going pretty easy.
"I asked her to go and she was all business. I worked her last time and she went very nice, so I knew she was ready for this race.''
Ben Cecil had pondered running Medaglia d'Amour in the longer Santa Barbara Handicap, a Grade II at 1 ¼ miles on turf, the penultimate day of Santa Anita on April 17, but a minor issue halted those plans.
"Her feet were a little warm,'' said Cecil, who also won the 2002 Wilshire with Eurolink Raindance. "This was the first race I had targeted, but when the Santa Barbara was coming up light, we thought we might take a look and go in there. The feet made the decision.
"Most of her pedigree is grass, so we knew stretching her out and putting her on grass was going to be the way to go with her. She will do whatever you want. She's a very easy filly to ride.''
Cat By The Tale, who finished a nose in front of 7-1 shot You Lift Me Up, paid $3.20 and $2.60. A California bred seeking her third consecutive win for trainer Jerry Hollendorfer and ridden by Russell Baze, You Lift Me Up paid $4.60 to show.
Although he had to settle for second in the Wilshire, Tyler Baze picked up three more wins on Saturday. He now has 14 through seven days, putting him nine clear of his closest pursuers in the jockey standings.
Hollywood Park will wrap up the second week of the meet when racing resumes on Sunday. Post time for the nine race program is 1 p.m.
The main event is the $100,000 Senorita Stakes. A Grade III for 3-year-old fillies at one mile on turf, the Senorita is headed by 2-1 morning line favorite City To City.

Customer Reviews for Comfortex Stripes 14% Openness Solar Screens Window Shades
By Blindsfan from Cincinnati, OH
My husband and I could not be happier. The blinds were a snap (pun intended) to install, look amazing, block the sun but not the view - all around perfect. We receive so many compliments on them as well. Having shopped other places, the value for the product is good. I would shop here again and I would buy these blinds again.View this product
"Love these shades"
By customer from St Petersburg, FL
I love these shades! I can see out but no one on the outside can see in until night time when the lights are turned on inside. Then I just pull down normal shades that I also bought from blidesgalore. The quality if wonderful. My house feels so much cooler with the bright sun being defused. Greatly recommended.View this product

Looking to put one together with my dad - he comes up with all sorts of random ways to make things work and I have seen some threads over at AT about it. Just wondering what you guys think of these options in terms of holding my phone (HD video capable) Incredible2?
The last 2 are the same one, front back - I have a feeling that might be the best option but didn't know if anyone has had any first hand experience putting one of these together yet. We already have a piece and a plan for the bracket that will mount up at the stabilizer. This is just the missing piece.

Sorry I didn't get to you sooner, been away. Glad everything went well. I screwed up my shoulder in March skiing. Playing hockey the next night probably didn't help. After a month of agony and it not feeling any better I went to the Doc who fixed my knee. He said I damaged the rotator cuff and would try some cortisone shots to see if they would help before doing an MRI. He brought a young female intern in to the room to distract me while he was working behind me. Her eyes glazed over and she nearly fainted when she saw the needle. I don't know what the big deal was, it didn't hurt nothin' like a puck off the head. Anyway, we both recovered and my shoulder feels better, but not a hundred percent. I had that arthroscopic stuff on my knee a few years back, so I thought your pictures were cool. There's some pictures and a write up here if you're interested:
It looks like your shoulder was more serious than my shoulder and knee put together, so I hope you're doing OK. My only advice is: do the therapy and excercises religiously, it's the only way you get better. See you at STP!

Hey Guys.....this really put a stop on my climbing. I can't believe how painful it is. I have to take these stupid Vicodin pills to ease the pain, but they make my brain mush! I hate em!!! PT has started and it looks like twice a week for about 8 weeks. I can't wait to get back out into the mountains again....I really miss them.
Oh well...waaa, waaa. waaa!

Hey Guys,
Sorry I haven't been posting......
This shoulder operation isn't turning out as easy going as I thought it would be. Dam.....my whole arm, right side of my chest and right side of my neck is all black and blue...AND IT HURTS!!!!!!!!!
My PT said this is all normal for the kind of operation they did, but I have a long road ahead of me. I was told I could hike in a few weeks, but nothing that invovles my arms.........DAAAAA! It looks like forest walks and logging trails this summer. I was really excited when I joined the site and wanted to trade stories and pictures of new hikes and climbs, but it doesn't look like that's gonna happen until the fall probably.
Oh well......sorry........just needed to vent a bit.
Hey! I still dig the site! I can read all your stories and before I know it, I'll be back out humping my butt off and telling you some cool stuff.
Please Support The MWO
I'm pulling for ya Joey, you'll be back out there before you know it.

I know that must be hard. Especially when it is so easy to see others' pictures and the web cameras. But, they will keep you in touch with what you love to do and help spur you on.

I've been looking for a place like this for a long time now.
A place to talk with people that are into the same thing I love.....hiking and climbing.
Hopefully I'll even get to meet and get out there with some of you one day.
Soon my main post topic won't be shoulder surgery.
Thanks to everyone for making me feel so welcomed here so quickly.

Editorial: Rowan still lags in health ratings
Thank goodness the Salisbury Rowan Farmers Market has found a new home for the summer and will open on schedule come April 20. The community needs to make healthy food available to more of its residents.
That's one conclusion you can draw from a study that puts Rowan County in the bottom third of the state in terms of residents' health. The ranking — compiled by researchers at the University of Wisconsin — uses data from federal and state sources to evaluate counties nationwide in several areas, including smoking, obesity, health-care availability, mortality, morbidity, education and income levels. Rowan ranks 68th among the state's 100 counties. Some of its neighbors do much better. Iredell ranks 21st, Cabarrus 10th and Davie 8th. (Wake topped the rankings; Columbus County was at the bottom.)
Some notable areas where Rowan does worse than the state:
• 25 percent of its adults smoke, compared to 21 percent statewide
• 32 percent of adults are obese, compared to 29 percent statewide
• 30 percent of residents are physically inactive, compared to 25 percent statewide
• 21 percent of Rowan residents lack health insurance, compared to 19 percent statewide
• 29 percent of Rowan children live in poverty, compared to 25 percent statewide.
• 51 percent of Rowan children are eligible for free lunches at school, compared to 43 percent statewide
• Rowan residents have less access to primary care physicians, with a resident-to-doctor ratio of 2,562:1, compared to 1,480:1 statewide.
• Rowan teens have a higher birth rate (54 per 1,000 teens) than the state as a whole (46 births per 1,000).
For local health and education officials, Rowan's ranking will come as no surprise. Previous assessments have identified these and other community health issues. Concerns about county health trends led to formation of the Healthy Rowan! Task Force, which continues to promote awareness and intervention programs targeting adults and children. The rankings underscore the importance of that work — and the challenge of bringing about positive change. While the rankings are largely the result of many individual decisions and actions — or inactions — the community as a whole bears the burden of higher health-care costs, heavier demand for public assistance and lost potential. As the task force's motto notes, "A healthy community is everyone's business."

INGLEWOOD, Calif. (June 17, 2011)—Switching to the turf and taking off blinkers proved the right moves for Midnight Interlude as he edged Surrey Star to win the $72,050 Tsunami Slew Stakes Friday night at Hollywood Park.
Well beaten in both the Kentucky Derby and Preakness after his upset at nearly 14-1 in the Santa Anita Derby, Midnight Interlude won after a pace pressing trip under Rafael Bejarano.
Closest to Moment of Weakness for most of the trip, the 3-year-old son of War Chant and the Groom Dancer mare Midnight Kiss gained a short lead with about an eighth of a mile to run, then outfinished Surrey Star, who saved ground throughout under jockey Joe Talamo, to prevail by a neck.
Owned by Arnold Zetcher LLC and trained by Bob Baffert for owner Arnold Zetcher LLC, Midnight Interlude returned $4.60, $3.20 and $2.20 as the 13-10 favorite. The win was the third in seven starts for Midnight Interlude. He completed the mile in 1:35.12 while increasing his earnings to $692,910.
Back in California after splitting the field in the Grade II American Turf May 6 at Churchill Downs, Surrey Star paid $4 and $2.80. Temple's Door, the 9-5 second choice who loomed a threat early in the stretch before losing his punch, paid $2.40 to show. The loss was the first in three starts for the son of Leroidesanimaux, who finished 1 ¾ lengths behind the runner-up.
Moment of Weakness and Every Ego completed the order of finish. Extensive and War Pilot were scratched.
"This is so important when you have the clientele like I have, who will let you do a crazy thing like this,'' said Baffert. "Win the Santa Anita Derby, run in the Kentucky Derby and Preakness, then run him back in the Tsunami Slew on turf.
"So it worked out. They (Mr. and Mrs. Zetcher) flew all the way in from Boston just for this. He loves the turf, but I also think he needs a firmer dirt., He worked terrific at Santa Anita. I think it was just the deeper, sandier tracks he was having trouble with. I was really disappointed because he had trained so well for the (Kentucky) Derby and Preakness.
"I took the blinkers off because we're trying to teach him something. We rushed him right along, rushed him right into the Santa Anita Derby, but now we can sit back and start teaching him a little bit how to rate and finish up like he did tonight.''
Racing resumes Saturday. Post time is 1 p.m.
The prime event on the nine race card is the $250,000 Vanity Handicap. A Grade I for older fillies and mares at 1 1/8 miles on Cushion Track, the Vanity's headliners are Blind Luck, St Trinians and Switch.
Lee and Susan Searing, the owners of Switch, have ordered 4,000 t-shirts with a "Go Switch'' logo on the front. The shirts will be passed out – in conjunction with Hollywood Park – per paid admission while supplies last.
There is a carryover in the Super High 5 for Saturday of $37,143 after nobody was able to isolate the right combination in Friday's final race.

Rheumatoid Arthritis Health Center
Arthritis and Takayasu's Arteritis
What Causes Takayasu's Arteritis?
The exact cause of Takayasu's arteritis is unknown.
Who Gets Takayasu's Arteritis?
Takayasu's arteritis most often affects young Asian women, but it also can affect children and adults of all ages and ethnic backgrounds. At diagnosis, Takayasu's arteritis patients often are between the ages of 15 and 35.
Every year in the U.S., two to three people are diagnosed with Takayasu's arteritis for every one million Americans.
How Is Takayasu's Arteritis Diagnosed?
The diagnosis of Takayasu's arteritis is based on a combination of factors, including:
- A complete medical history and careful physical exam to exclude other illnesses that may have similar symptoms
- Imaging studies (such as MRI, X-rays, and angiograms), which show location and severity of vessel damage
- Presence of a bruit. Significant narrowing of blood vessels may result in turbulent blood flow through the narrowed area that creates an unusual sound called a "bruit."
Note: With most other forms of vasculitis, a biopsy (tissue sample) of the affected area confirms the presence of blood vessel inflammation. A biopsy is most appropriate when easily accessible areas, such as the skin, are affected. However, when large blood vessels are affected, a biopsy is often not practical because of the risks associated with surgery.
How Is Takayasu's Arteritis Treated?
Corticosteroids -- often called simply "steroids" -- are the most common treatment for Takayasu's arteritis. Steroids work within hours after the first dose is given. While this drug often is dramatically effective, it may be only partially effective for some people.
Once it is apparent that the disease is under control, doctors slowly reduce the dosage of prednisone (a steroid) to sustain improvement, thereby trying to minimize treatment side effects. In some people, it is possible to gradually discontinue medication without a relapse.
As the dosage of prednisone is gradually reduced, about half of all patients will have recurrent symptoms or progression of illness. This has led researchers to explore additional treatments to produce remission. Among medications that have been tried, with varying degrees of success, are immunosuppressive drugs such as methotrexate.
When these drugs are added to prednisone to treat Takayasu's arteritis, 50% of patients who had previously relapsed will achieve remission and be able to gradually discontinue prednisone. Overall, about 25% of patients will have disease that is not entirely controlled without continued use of these treatments. This emphasizes the need for continuing research to identify better and less toxic treatments for Takayasu's arteritis and other forms of vasculitis.
Many patients with Takayasu's arteritis have high blood pressure. Careful control of blood pressure is very important. Inadequate treatment of high blood pressure may result in stroke, heart disease, or kidney failure. In some cases, it is desirable to stretch narrow vessel openings with a balloon (a technique known as "angioplasty") or to do a bypass operation to restore normal flow to the kidney. This may result in normal blood pressure without the need to use blood pressure drugs.
Some patients may have serious disabilities because of narrowed blood vessels that supply other sites, such as the arms or legs. Bypass operations may correct these abnormalities. Aneurysms also can be surgically repaired.

The People of Taiwan Parading to a Ritual Sacrifice (for Generals Fan and Xie)
The annual ritual sacrifices for General Fan and Xie at the temple to the city gods in Taipei were especially important to the people of Taiwan during the period of Japanese occupation, which lasted from 1895 to 1945. Extra trains in and out of Taipei were scheduled to accommodate the crowds that came to this event from all over Taiwan.
Raising Ducks in Taipei Province
Traditionally, raising ducks has been an important enterprise in Taiwan, especially in the northern region. Wherever there is water, families have raised ducks for food.
The Magnificent Longshan Temple in Taipei
The Longshan Temple is the most famous ancient temple in Taipei. Built in 1738 by settlers from the Chinese mainland who founded a trading post at the site 15 years previously, the temple was where local residents worshipped the Guanyin Bodhisattva and looked to it for protection and the resolution of disputes. In the Sino-French War of 1884-85, the temple became a rallying point for the successful defense of Taiwan against French troops. Earthquakes, storms, and a major termite assault obliged the community to rebuild the temple at various times ...
View of the Office of the Governor-General of Taiwan
Under Japanese rule between 1895 and 1945, the chief authority in Taiwan was the governor-general, an official appointed by, and sent from, Tokyo. The governor-general wielded supreme executive, legislative, and judicial power. This 1920s photograph shows the office of the governor general, which included bureaus for military and home affairs. Construction of this building, by workers imported from Japan, began in 1912 and was completed in 1919.
The Public Baths: Which Take Pride in Their Blend of Japanese and Foreign Architecture (Caoshan [J. Sōzan] Hot Springs, Taiwan)
The Taipei Prefecture public baths were built in the late 1920s to commemorate the enthronement of the Showa emperor in Japan, at a site where natural hot springs already were in use. The facilities were considered to be the best in Taiwan. Japanese forces invaded and occupied Taiwan in the Sino-Japanese War of 1895, a conflict between the Chinese and Japanese empires mainly over control of Korea. At the conclusion of the war, China ceded Taiwan to Japan. The occupation lasted until 1945 and the end of World War II.
