Part 1 of 2
by Geoffrey Ciani (Interviewed by Jenna J & Geoffrey Ciani) - This week's 112th edition of On the Ropes Boxing Radio featured an exclusive interview with former two-division champion Bernard Hopkins (51-5-2, 32 KOs), who is scheduled to have a rematch against WBC light heavyweight champion Jean Pascal (26-1-1, 16 KOs) on May 21 at a venue to be determined. The first time these two met in December they battled to a controversial draw in which most observers felt Hopkins had won. Hopkins spoke about Pascal and also provided opinions on various other topics. Here is Part 1 of 2 of the complete interview transcript:
JENNA J: It is actually time for our final interview on this week's show. He is a living legend in the sport. He is the former undisputed middleweight champion of the world and former light heavyweight champion of the world, the one and only Bernard "The Executioner" Hopkins. How's everything going today Bernard?
BERNARD HOPKINS: Everything is going good. We're finally getting some early spring here in Philadelphia and Delaware. It's supposed to hit 55 or 60 and it's fantastic. Everything is fine. My family is good and I'm just moving along and taking care of other family business and, you know, life.
JENNA: That's great Bernard, and I think what's even better is you're actually going to be getting your rematch with Jean Pascal. It's going to be on May 21. How do you feel about the opportunity to get another chance at it?
HOPKINS: Well first of all, I'd like to say that with the board of the WBC I thanked them before, and I'm thanking them again every time this topic comes up because they did the right thing. The sanctioning bodies, for good or bad reasons, have been under a lot of things during for decades and years, but at the end of the day the truth was revealed. They voted. 30 out of 32 people voted for the fight, so that itself shows that an injustice was done that night in Canada. To me I just want to clear really there mistake up, not my mistake up. I believe I fought a fight that was planned out by myself and Nazim Richardson and the only thing better than that performance was a knockout. That's the only thing that could top that performance by me was a knockout. Any fighter will tell you if you get a knockout you don't got to worry about the decision going your way or not, but it is what it is. I get a chance to make their wrong right, and what better way and what better person to be in that position than Bernard Hopkins. I am familiar with this to be honest with you. Unfortunately I am used to bad decisions or close decisions, but it worked out right this time. Again, I commend the WBC. I'm really happy to be able to show what went down again.
JENNA: Now last time we talked to you there was some doubt whether you'd be able to get this rematch, as there was a rematch clause that Pascal had to fulfill with Chad Dawson. How pleased are you that the Dawson camp and you have able to work out a deal with HBO so that you can fight Pascal next?
HOPKINS: Well HBO is in the boxing business and they're in the business of viewership, just like radio, just like newspapers, just like internet. You have to be able to give the fans and people what they want. If you're a journalist you want to write accurate and good stories, and hot stories. So it's no different when corporate America says that they don't want 'B' but they want 'A', and we are 'A'. HBO did with most people, including Golden Boy and myself, believed that they would do. At the end of the day they will be involved in a fight that people want to see and that is Bernard Hopkins and Jean Pascal. So to me it is not actually what Dawson and his promoter wanted, Gary Shaw. It was basically coming down to, which it did, what fight is meaningful, what fights the fans want to see, and what fight brings the audience, and that 30 out of 32 people that just shows that nobody cares two shoots about Chad Dawson right now. I'm keeping it real. I'm not saying he's not a good fighter or a bad fighter. I'm just saying that he's in the pool of a tournament that I suggested to a couple of people that this thing could wind up being one of those Round Robins in a way of more than one person. I said I think it would be a great idea to put something together and take Chad Dawson on the back end. If Chad Dawson wins, I win, everybody wins, and who loses falls to the wayside and who wins goes forward. I mean it's the playoffs! So to me it's just fantastic. I've been in a couple of playoffs—in 2001 in the middleweight and now in the second go around in the light heavyweight division. You know I've been there, done that, but I don't mind doing it again. It's fantastic!
JENNA: Bernard, as part of your rematch with Jean Pascal you were also given a three fight deal with HBO. What does it mean for you to get a long term offer like that, given your age?
HOPKINS: Well one is history. I don't even think Big George, the great legend who I respect to the end of boxing history in the world, I don't think he had what I have today being 46 now. I don't think any athlete in any sport that got a multi-million dollar contract deal with a major network. I think I just made history without even throwing a punch! Again, for everybody that hears this audio or goes on East Side Boxing to review what's been said now, I'm up to being proven wrong. Anybody out there, bicycle riders, a golfer, or a hockey player, soccer player, give me a call. If anybody out there knows any other athlete at 45 years old or 46 right now, who have a multi-million dollar multi-deal with a major powerhouse promotional or TV network, any TV network, please let me know. So again this is history all the way through. Until I end I want to be in position. At this age which is young for me and old for others, I want people to understand that this is not normal by far. To be able to be embraced by HBO and picking up the fight and attaching other things to it, to me is something that I think makes people scratch their heads and go, "You know, we got to really pay attention more to what Bernard Hopkins is doing. Yes, he's done a lot, but it seems like this is something that is going to get my attention, too", and that's what I wanted to do.
If I'm going to stay around in this game and not embarrass myself, why not play Russian Roulette because at any age, especially at an age where you aren't supposed to be doing it, it's Russian Roulette. I'm a risk-taker and I'm a chance-taker and that's what life is about. In certain cases, there are good risks and bad risks, but it's all a risk. You know one fight you go home. Win a fight and you go to the next stage. I have no problem with pressure and that's what molded me the way I am, and again, I'd like to thank HBO for embracing that legacy in a way where they didn't talk about it, they want to be about it. This is a great thing for me, it's a great thing for my legacy, and it's a great thing to let any sports person know in any sports. I'm not just going to limit myself to boxing. I'd be a fool to do that. I'm saying every sport that an American can find that's a sport that's legal, find me a 46 year old athlete in any sport. Hey, throw in the women too! They ought to be accountable. You know what I mean? Any women or any man out there, and I put the call out. Urgent! SOS! This is important, because I want to know. I don't want to make a fool out of myself and be saying this all through the promotion and all through the this whole thing of Bernard's legacy. I'm pretty sure it's going to be done especially leading up to this fight tying HBO with this historic, different, unusual situation. I was told and reminded by Richard Schaefer that you have to look past just boxing—any sport—and I'm trying to get used to saying it. So I don't want ya'll to think I'm repeating myself, which I am, but it's because I want to keep reminding myself to remind ya'll to look beyond boxing when you talk about sports with Bernard Hopkins. Look beyond any sport that you can name. Name me a 46 year old that's in this position right now, that's not embarrassing himself. I'm not talking about someone who's wrestling in UFC somewhere on the ground. I'm not talking about somebody jumping off the rope in WWF. (laughs) Please not! I'm telling you on this level. It's called a respectful level of a living legend.
JENNA: Alright well Bernard, let's talk about that rematch with Pascal. What do you think you're going to do differently to win more decisively and in the eyes of the judges?
HOPKINS: Well I'm going to do what I did the first time, but even step it up another notch. It's not what I need to do. It's not what I need to do. There is always room for adjustments here when the time comes. I'm the teacher; he's the student. So I don't have to change my teaching books. I don't have to change my strategy or the black chalkboard, letting the student know where to cross the T's and dot the dots. My job is to show up as the teacher to be able to teach, and that's where this thing is going to be, whether I'm telling you about a strategy, I'm telling you what's going to be different, what I'm going to do. A teacher doesn't reveal the test until he gives the test. The test is what it is. It's a test, and the test is on your table, and that's why you have the luxury of studying. So it's not what the teacher needs to study for the student, it's what the student needs to study for the teacher. That's why the name is "test" and that's why I'm the teacher, because I happen to be the oldest one and I happen to be the one with the teaching credentials to say that I'm a teacher without being laughed at. So the student needs to answer that question as time goes. The student needs to look at the last test and see he received D's, or maybe a C here and there, but no A's or B's. He failed! So I'm going to go in there with my same strategy and my same lessons of today!
JENNA: Alright, well Bernard, we are joined by my Co-Host Geoff, also.
GEOFFREY CIANI: Hey Bernard! It's a great pleasure to have you back on the show.
HOPKINS: Good to be on, always!
CIANI: Bernard, you know we've had you on the show a bunch of times now. The first time we had you on, you and I were discussing your ability to win the mental battle with your opponent before you get into the ring, and I've noticed in recent interviews I've seen with Pascal, he seemed a little flustered and defense and I'm curious from your perspective, do you think your already in his head even more so than last time?
HOPKINS: No, because I can keep my mouth shut like I did with Kelly Pavlik and people said I was overly nice with him when I was preparing for my fate or what. I don't need to get into a guy's head one way or the other. I talk because I feel confident enough from the stuff that I've been through and the stuff that I had to go through to become a man first of all, and then become what I became as an athlete. So when I speak and they just happen to listen, if they don't have the same drive and the same feeling s that I have, you will be intimidated. You will give off a vibe to people that are outside looking saying, "Bernard got in his head". I didn't get in their head! I'm being me! This ain't no strategy talk that I'm rebounding to you with. I'm telling you seriously, there is no book. I don't have the time in my day to sit down and figure out how I'm going to get in somebody's head.
If you remember, "The Executioner" used to give people last meals. That's getting in your head! "The Executioner" used to come out with the hood on at the press conference and talk about what I'm going to do Saturday. "The Executioner" used to do the last meal and "The Executioner" used to do a lot of things as time became what it is now. I said to myself people , if people think that the way I'm winning this fight or if part of my strategy of winning this fight, because obviously physically you got to win the fight, but then I will do something that you shouldn't do and take away what's working for you. But is it really working? So I kept my mouth closed for the Pavlik fight. "Is Bernard? Bernard has been uncharacteristic. That's not Bernard. Bernard is saying he's a fan of the guy?" People look and say well maybe that's the strategy. I'm damned if I do, damned if I don't. My abilities and my confidence, and when I'm asked a question I speak like I'm speaking now. Whoever doesn't have that in their soul and their body will be intimidated by me. It's not intentionally. It's just the way I feel and if they are not weak by failing to understand that mentality, they're just not prepared because they haven't been through anything yet.
Everybody has a story! Everybody has a story. The problem is, are you willing to talk about it? Compassionate and work to the death if you have to, to achieve the things that you say that you want. We all say we want something, but how many people get their ass up out of bed and go get it? So I say to people, "Great question. I get them flustered. I get them this." Hey! It's their insecurity. We all, well I did and I'm pretty sure ya'll watched ESPN the other night. I love boxing. The reason I'm in this game is not only do I love boxing and it helped me stay out of the graveyard for right now, because we're all going there one day, and it damn sure helped me stay out of the penitentiary. What I'm saying is if I didn't love this sport, they can't pay me any God damn money in this world that's worth anything to me to be in that ring if I didn't love what I do. To take myself through that, you got to have passion, you got to have love for what you do because there may be a time you're going to get these things that you always fought for and wanted. I got that years ago. So to me when you respect the game the game will respect you back. And Pascal, it's not his fault that he's ignorant. I tried to talk to David Reid. I tried to talk to Jermain Taylor. I tried to talk to Kelly Pavlik. Ya'll seen that on national TV! That wasn't just happy talk! That wasn't victory talk bullshit! That was Bernard Hopkins being Bernard Hopkins knowing that when it's all said and done we're all we got, fighter to fighter. It's not fighter to manager, fighter to agent, consultant, or whatever title they give themselves to hide behind and try to take more money.
The bottom line is he doesn't know, and one day if he's lucky enough he will come and say, "You were right". That's Pascal. But in the meantime, he has to get whipped again. He has to get reality-checked that everybody said to him, before we fought the first fight December 18, that I was the opposite of everything he had seen in the ring. It was the same thing that dictated and predicted Kelly Pavlik. You're told one thing and you believe what you are told because these people have been with you as amateurs, trainers, early in your professional career. You believe these things! And you know what? They've been right most of the time, but this guy Bernard Hopkins. Is he a prophet? Is he somebody from somewhere else? Is he from a different era and happens in this one? Is he, Bernard Hopkins, cut from a different clothe of the Hagler era? The Ray Robinson era? The Gypsy Joe Harris era? The Ezzard Charles era? Is this somebody living in our time but really he belongs 30 years back? He had been lied to, and when you've been lied to or told something that's not true and you got to go into battle and see something different, that's the head game! I'm not even inventing that.
The thing is, he's not what ya'll said he was! Pascal has to deal with that ya'll! Whatever we say between now and then is good for promotion. Everything he's saying now and even me. I don't know what I'm talking about half the time people think. So just put it in there. Some people are foolish enough to just say I'm so lucky. But when you're lied to—and I know I'm rambling on but this is good stuff—when you're lied to and then you realize that it's a lie in the middle of battle, it's hard to adjust mentally for that. I live this! I don't just talk boxing. You know what I did this morning? At six 'clock, at seven o'clock, I was watching old film tapes on my movie screen TV down in my wreck room, because I always want to reinvent myself all over. It is hard to beat a guy like that. It is hard to beat a quarterback like that. It's hard to beat a running back like that. If I was a football player and I was a running back, I'd be watching Jim Brown! I'd be watching Earl Campbell from the Houston Oilers. I'd be watching Frano Harris and Walter Payton from the Chicago Bears, because to be great, I told you all the athletes I would watch if I was in those sports. To be great, whether it's football, basketball, it would be the Michael Jordan, it would be the Magic Johnson, it would be the George Gervin.
To be great, if you want to be that, you watch the great history of people who did it already, who passed the torch, who did it, no matter if it's boxing, racecar driving, whatever it is. If that person is labeled great amongst the historic writers and he proved it by being a Hall of Famer in any sport, I'm going to watch that and that's a hard athlete for a person to beat, because once he learns that—and this is a lesson for Jean Pascal or anybody. I don't care. It's not a strategy I'm giving out. I'm giving you life lessons, because everybody else is going to lie and say what they want to say because they want to make the athlete feel like he's special. Then when he gets in there and he realizes he's good but he's not special then his career is over, not because they can't fight, it's because mentally they know they weren't what they were built up to be. So this microwave society, yes I said microwave. Write it down. Somebody's going to use it. I don't have a patent. Ya'll can have it. This microwave society, quick fix, and that's why they quickly leave off the mountain and they don't stay for ten years like most greats have done and legacies. They're there for a quick stop and they're gone. They never get a chance to build a legacy. Unfortunately that's the life we live in. Nobody has time to let it marinate like grandma. Put the onions in there, and the seasoning, and let it bake, and you're so hungry you keep coming in and saying, "Mom, is it time to eat yet?" "No, it's not time. Give me ten more minutes. Give me twenty more minutes, because it's in the oven baking". Baking is slower than the microwave.
CIANI: Bernard now you mentioned earlier you're an older athlete who's performing at a top level. All of your losses have been close and have arguably been wins and you mentioned how you're a risk-taker and a chance-taker. Do you ever worry though, given the fact you never embarrassed yourself inside the ring, do you every worry that one day you might have one of those performances that nobody has ever seen from you before that we've come never to expect from you?
HOPKINS: We already had that. That already came. That already showed. To me it was one of the worst performances, under the conditions still, it was one of the worst performances because of what I didn't do, what I believe I could have done, but under the circumstances some argue, "Bernard, you can't put yourself in that situation because you fought basically three Roy Jones' at one time". One of my worst performances was when I fought Roy Jones Junior the second time. One of my best learning experiences was when I fought Roy Jones Junior the first time in Washington DC in RFK Stadium in 1993. So to me, that was my moment of both historic situations when it comes to worrying about whether I will and whether I won't. I think I have passed that stage. At least to me, that's where I believe I recognize both of those things that you just said.
To me I've already been there. I've already been there and done that and knocked on the door, because if you noticed how many people were writing me off after the Roy Jones fight who forgot about the hits to the back of the head with the brain stem. Jean Pascal thought that was my weak spot. How many times did he go back there? The thing is I'm not going to cry and you never see my complain to the referee one time, so at the end of the day it's not about trying to beat Bernard Hopkins, it's trying to hurt Bernard Hopkins because people see the blueprint in the Roy Jones fight. So people say you hit him in the back of the head, blah, blah, blah, whatever. Okay, but the thing is now that that's when you got to show that okay, you think that's going to be it? And you fight through it and you realize how they are trying to bury you so you go ahead and fight through it. So when you fight through it, it shows character and it shows heart. He didn't crumble. Then he's in trouble now because he didn't have a plan B. That's Jean. That's Pascal. So to me, I've been there, done that. That's why he got warned, and he got warned, and he got warned, and never a point taken. We counted it, a week after the fight we just had this little seminar at a local station with Comcast, and they counted 50 rabbit punches in the whole fight. But look, my thing is this, what a guy does to me I can do to him. I'm the first one that didn't complain because I got a history, too.
At the end of the day I know the game. I know what's going on. I know what the agenda is, but people are going to be really, really not shocked when this fight, the second time around, which my record proves that nobody really has a career after that. I mean really, I'm not bragging or boasting, but there's a chance ya'll might not be talking about Pascal in years after this is over with. Pascal might wind up in that same home Jermain Taylor's in because he's that ignorant to be brave. He's that ignorant to be brave. I didn't read that from anywhere. That just came up in my head, but ya'll know what it means and I know what it means. He's that ignorant where he doesn't know, because he's young and ignorant, that he's too brave for his own good. That puts him in the same home, you know they got nursing homes, they got crazy homes, they got penitentiaries. He'll wind up in that same home that Jermain Taylor is in, because he is so ignorant that it hurts him and he's so brave that it hurts him, too. He doesn't know how to hold, he doesn't know how to fold'em, and he doesn't know how to run away—Kenny Rogers. You got to know all these attributes in the suit to even get through life. You can't fight every battle, and some battles are fought differently. That's why you have the great Generals in our history books. Okay? And that's where time, not a quick learning fix, not a book is going to give you that. It's called "time" and if you're lucky enough, and you're blessed enough, and you're fortunate enough, all of these things you will learn about what I've been through and did and done and back again.
For those interested in listening to the Bernard Hopkins interview in its entirety, it begins approximately fifty-five minutes (54:55) into the program.

If money were no object, you'd probably find it easy to choose the perfect gift for everyone on your holiday list. But few have a limitless budget. We at TechNewsDaily have rounded up five of our favorite gifts — things our friends and family will find under the tree this year — and each costs less than $100.
If you have someone on your list who is reluctant to dive into the latest tech gizmos, a Roku streaming media player that delivers Internet TV to the big screen is a sound choice. The company recently added universal search that lets viewers look for a single show or movie across its channels, including Netflix, HuluPlus and Amazon OnDemand. It's easy to set up and comes with its own remote that has only a few buttons to master. (Recommended by TND staff, because we all have relatives who don't embrace tech quite as much as we do.)
Brit Kits from Pinterest aficionado Brit Moran offer complete projects that can be done in 30 minutes or less. The kits that fit our budget are available as a one-time gift ($20) and as a 3-month subscription ($60). The 6-month series ($110) just missed our limit. October's project was LED balloons and included lights to drop into a dozen balloons, sparkly confetti, hanging strips and a balloon pump. You never know what you'll get, but that's part of the fun. (Recommended by Leslie Meredith, senior writer and mom of four @lesliemeredith)
This may not be the sexiest of gifts, but it will be a lot more useful than just about anything else you can buy for $40. The Kensington auto power Inverter with USB power port for emergency power plugs into your car's port to let you charge your phone or other device when the power goes down. Our staff in New York and New Jersey found these devices essential during Hurricane Sandy when power outages lasted for days. (Recommended by Daniel Howley, auto writer for LAPTOP, a TND sister site)
Instead of buying the child on your list the latest battery-operated toy, consider LittleBits' Starter Kit. It's a neatly packaged set of wires, switches, LED lights, a motor and custom-made 9-volt battery that snap together with magnets to fuel the creativity of tomorrow's tech whizzes. LittleBits also offers a new holiday kit to make Christmas ornaments, a moving skater and a New Year's light-up hat for $50. (Recommended by Leslie Meredith)
Dedicated video game players (you know who you are) will thoroughly enjoy Power A's latest peripheral, the Fus1on Tournament Controller. This custom-built controller comes with everything you need to enhance your playing experience, whether it's the comfortable build, interchangeable parts (it's easy to remove and install items, like grips and glossy/matte controller shells), ideal analog stick movements and a 9.8 foot cord that lets you move around with ease. It even comes with a protective travel case, if the gamers on your list prefer to take their skills on the go. (Recommended by Robert Workman, TND's gaming expert @TheDCD)

Love called me today. It started off with the same sweet nothings that it always does, "Oh, I miss you" and "You know I'm always thinking about you." For a second the old me came to mind, I started to blush, even tear up at the thought. Then I realized… . Where were you when I needed you? Where were you when I got sick, the flu, two weeks, alone? Where were you when my car broke down, roadside three hours, alone? Where were you when my close friend died, me crying, all alone? Where was my should to cry own? My hand to grab on to? My oxygen when I was about to turn black and blue? Where were my kind words? The hold me close when I need, I hurt? Where were my jokes on the bad days? When in trouble no save? Where was my friend? When low self-esteem, my 'I can'? Where were you when I needed you? - Love hangs up, dial tone… …

I can understand why some of you guys are thrilled with the forum back and Martin Archery being saved. As for myself, I was a fan of my bow because of the lightweight and price. I do not have the patience nor the brand attachment that some of you have. When I will upgrade my bow, it will be with a brand that is easily accessible from where I live and with parts that I do not have to wait 6 weeks for.
I truly enjoy my 2010 Bengal, but the Company, not so much. I tried my best to like Martin, but I do not need to support them. For example, some people like Chevy for no other reason than it's a Chevy. I'm not one of those.
I will support a company that offers great product and a service that equals it.
So, my suggestion to Martin will be this: Find a way to efficiently distribute parts to pro-shops or directly to your customers (in Canada, it is beyond ridiculous). Waiting 6weeks for a set of limbs - under warranty - hardly qualify as efficient in my book.
The good news for the new Martin management is I am telling you this. Many customers would just move on without saying a word. Most people here are fans of the name and will support you no matter what. But your market should cover more than that.
Finally, thanks to some of you here who constantly offer help to new archers, who can solve the most puzzling questions, who share their expertise to promote archery in general. Whenever I need information on my Bengal, I always come here and search for answers, which I often find without even posting. I will continue to do so, as I intend to keep this bow even after I upgrade.
Keep up the great work.

National Initiative Improves Treatment Times, Outcomes for Stroke Patients
Aimee Simone, Assistant Editor
Published Online:
Tuesday, May 6, 2014
Follow Pharmacy_Times:
The Target: Stroke initiative reduced the time before acute ischemic stroke patients were treated with intravenous tissue plasminogen activator, leading to reduced rates of in-hospital mortality and intracranial hemorrhage.
Implementation of a national quality improvement initiative, Target: Stroke, has led to faster administration of intravenous tissue plasminogen activator (tPA) in stroke patients, according to the results of a new study. The study also found that quicker treatment was associated with lower rates of in-hospital mortality and intracranial hemorrhage and an increased portion of patients discharged to their homes.
Although current guidelines recommend that eligible patients with acute ischemic stroke begin intravenous tPA therapy within 60 minutes after arrival at the hospital, previous research has indicated that less than 30% of patients are treated within this time frame. In an effort to improve door-to-needle times for stroke patients, Target: Stroke was launched in January 2010. Organized by the American Heart Association and the American Stroke Association, the initiative includes 10 care strategies for reducing door-to-needle times, provides clinical decision support tools, facilitates hospital participation, and encourages sharing of best practices among participating hospitals.
The new
, published in the April 23/30, 2014 issue of the
Journal of the American Medical Association
, evaluated the efficacy of the program by determining the portion of stroke patients treated with tPA within 60 minutes of arrival before and after the initiative began in hospitals participating in the Get With The Guidelines—Stroke program. The analysis also aimed to determine whether faster door-to-needle times were associated with improved clinical outcomes. A total of 71,169 acute ischemic stroke patients from 1030 participating hospitals who were treated with tPA before the initiative (2003 to 2009) or after its implementation (2010 to 2013) were included in the analysis.
The median door-to-needle time for tPA administration decreased from 77 minutes before the program began to 67 minutes after it was implemented. In addition, the portion of patients who received the treatment within 60 minutes increased from 26.5% to 41.3%. When the analysis focused on the end of the pre- and post-intervention periods, the median door-to-needle time decreased from 74 minutes during the fourth quarter of 2009 to 59 minutes by the third quarter of 2013. The portion of patients with door-to-needle times of at most 60 minutes also improved, increasing from 29.6% at the end of 2009 to 53.3% in the third quarter of 2013.
The results also found that the initiative was associated with improved clinical outcomes. Compared with the pre-intervention period, in-hospital all-cause mortality significantly decreased (9.93% to 8.25%), symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage within 36 hours occurred less frequently (5.68% to 4.68%), and more patients were discharged to their homes (37.6% to 42.7%) after the initiative was implemented. In addition, the portion of stroke patients treated with tPA significantly increased from 64.7% before to 85.2% after the program was implemented.
"[T]he stroke community now has data pointing to how, with some substantial effort and investment, tPA treatment can be administered more quickly," James C. Grotta, MD, notes in an
accompanying editorial
Although more research is needed to address limitations of the study, Dr. Grotta concludes that its results provide evidence of "exactly where and how to direct efforts in improving treatment outcomes for patients with acute ischemic stroke—namely by reducing time from symptom onset to treatment."

BookSmart is, quite possibly, the most productive application I have on my computer.
I have used BookSmart to lay out two books so far: one was small, about 20 pages, but the other was close to 120 pages. Both projects went very well.
I don't have the fastest computer in the world, and I recognize that BookSmart is written in Java, so I don't expect it to be quite as snappy as other applications. But it is free and it is good enough for me.
I am incredibly thankful to the developers for the time and work they have contributed to make such a useful application. Aside from Microsoft Word, BookSmart is probably the only other application I have used to actually produce something tangible; and, unlike Microsoft Word, the things I can make are beautiful and worth sharing.
Thank you, developers, for all the work you do.
Very well put! I would like to add my voice of thanks to the developers, and the entire Blurb team. Until I found Blurb, I never had any ideas on publishing a book. Since I found Blurb a year ago…seven books….and two more in progress!
Thank you Blurb!!
Also, many thanks to the various contributers in the Forums. Without you freely sharing your knowledge and experiences, I don't think my books would have turned out as well as they did.
Thank you All!!!
And thanks from me!
I've 5 books planned for this year, including a large landscape of British Seabirds (an excuse to spend all my free time touring the coast instead of decorating or gardening!) and I have absolutely no hesitation or any apprehension of using Blurb and BookSmart for these. I have been extremely pleased with the set of books I did last year.

best way to start is with breakfast! aim for a huge fruit only breakfast of a big 1 litre smoothie or munch down atleast 5 bananas and some dates! or make a smoothie bowl and cut up some fruit on top and add some coconut flake.chips for crunch! if you get alot of calories and nutrients from breakfast you will be less likely to reach for the shitty food later on. try grab a big salad or even if your transitioning have some mono fruit and grab or make vegan sushi or rice paper rolls (but make sure to have alot of them to keep up carbed up and satisfied) dinner make a big salad with some baked NO FAT potatoes or some low fat corn pasta and sauce. hope this helps to start your journey to better health! x get on the facebook page rawtill4 for help to :) x
I have to say that I am fully on board the colored jean train for spring. I especially love the pastel hues which is odd because I've never been a fan of Easter egg colors. The problem I'm having is that I know pastel jeans only have so much staying power. They will not become a wardrobe staple and I imagine that come spring 2013, I will be tired of this look. So what's a girl on a budget to do? My MO when it comes to trendy clothes is to buy an inexpensive version and to limit myself to one (and if I just can't help myself, two) of the trendy item. Right now I'm considering the J. Crew toothpick in bright papaya and possibly this pair at Urban Outfitters but I haven't committed yet because what I'm hoping to find is a lavender pair that looks something like this. My plan is to wear the jeans with simple sweaters, chambray tops, and oversize t-shirts paired with sparkly necklaces/bracelets.
A great example of color-blocking. Teal, lavender, navy, orange, and red! I've been seeing a lot of bright oranges and soft lavenders for spring - two colors that are beautiful but not always easy to wear. The ample use of navy, a hue that anyone can pull off and that never goes out of fashion, helps temper the harder-to-wear colors.
Olivia Palermo's take on smart spring dressing. Floral and brocade patterned pants and skirts are certainly a hot item for spring; as are bright, vibrant colors. Olivia keeps the look grounded with a black jacket and a caramel colored leather purse.
My "dress prettier" resolution has not been going too well. I've fallen into old habits like skinny jeans, baggy knits, and converse sneakers but after seeing this photo of Alexa Chung from London Fashion Week, I plan to recommit to the ladylike aesthetic.

Straight off the (fashion) press: Hanneli in a luscious blue suede jacket with earrings to match. I often think that the street style during fashion week is more fun to watch than the shows.

A bright red bag has just been added to my wishlist. I've recently seen a number of cherry-hued purses online and in life and think the bold statement is ideal for someone like me who tends to dress in blacks and grays. Although a red purse is not an everyday bag, the right purse worn in the right way looks contemporary and chic. Also, NY fashion week kicks off tomorrow! :)

Anonymous said: Do you know what size and color PS1 Lauren Santo Domingo wears in the photo with in the photo from back in 2010 (May 5). It is a neutral and I have always liked it.
Lauren Santo Domingo was one of the first women in the style set to adopt (and be photographed with) the PS1 bag after it was introduced in late 2008. In the photo from May 5, 2010, Ms. Santo Domingo is sporting a medium leather PS1. The exact color is not something I can determine. I imagine that, similar to the Balenciaga bags, most colors are limited edition and sold only for one season. There is a similar neutral (grey/beige) PS1 currently available at Barneys. It is slightly more beige-y while LSD's appears more griege-y.

MySpace Music: Any day now, actually today…
MySpace has sent out a 'breaking news' media advisory for a news conference featuring CEO Chris de Wolfe (left) at 11am ET, which we presume is about the launch of MySpace Music as Reuters reported yesterday to be coming in days.
Silicon Alley Insider reported later yesterday that Universal Music Group had settled with MySpace for $100 million, a figure we also confirmed from our source. The November 2006 lawsuit was the main sticking point for getting MySpace Music off to a flying start. With a third of the recorded music market under its thumb, Universal's participation was seen as critical to the new service's success.
MySpace's parent News Corp. will own the majority stake of MySpace Music while Universal Music Group, Sony BMG Music Entertainment and Warner Music Group will each have a minority stake proportional to their market size, say our sources. The music companies also have an eye on a possible spin-off of the music company in the future, said one source.
No one knows if EMI, the smallest of the big four, will be on board in the future. This week the company appointed former Google executive Doug Merrill as president of digital.
Keep any eye on:

The concert opens with Beethoven's Leonore Overture No. 3. Sibelius' Symphony No. 2 anchors the second half of the program. The musical materials and orchestral sonority of this work evoke the cold, massive, unmistakable Nordic sound that has come to be associated with Sibelius.
