Tom Kaluzny walks through the halls of the new Rehabilitation Services office on the lower floor of Providence Mount Carmel Hospital. Doctors stop in to talk with receptionists and refer patients for physical therapy.
It's just another day on the job for hospital employees and not necessarily the scene of great drama, but the fact that the doctors are actually able to walk to the office and confer with employees in rehabilitation is no small feat. Until March of this year, Mount Carmel's rehabilitation services were located in the basement of the Town Center Building in downtown Colville.
"We were there for about 27 years," says Kaluzny. "It wasn't a bad space, but we were always separated from the main hospital, plus we had a small amount of treatment space for our patients. This way, it is much easier for us to treat patients and build that rapport with them and their doctors."
With currently over 200 patients using rehabilitation services, the move has been a long time coming. The new space is 5,000 square feet with six treatment rooms that cater to patients from infancy all the way to senior citizens. There are seven physical therapists, with one occupational therapist and one speech therapist. They treat everything from joint skeletal and muscle injuries to stroke victims and even autism.
A Balance Master, only one of three in Eastern Washington, is on hand to provide a computerized evaluation for the patient on their points of balance and what they can improve on during therapy.
A swing hangs in the children's therapy room, donated by the Children's Miracle Network, that assists in treatment of autistic children. A full kitchen is available to help those who have suffered a stroke or traumatic brain injury get back on the road to recovery and independence by relearning how to take care of themselves.
"We also have plans to set up a medical massage program and a bowel and bladder program," says Kaluzny. "Of course, the goal with any patient is to get them as close to functioning how they normally did before they sustained an injury, had a stroke, etc."
Other long-term goals include a therapy swimming pool heated at 94 degrees so arthritic patients can utilize it as well. Currently, aquatic physical therapy sessions are held at Benny's Colville Inn pool.
An Open House for the Providence Mount Carmel Rehabilitation Services will be Thursday, April 19 from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m. The public is invited to attend.
"We do what we do because we love being able to work with people," says Kaluzny. "Physical therapy is a helping profession. We're very glad to be here to do that."

Waterford Crystal Swimming Club
In the beginning was the company "Waterford Crystal ltd" who in their wisdom decided to create a sports complex that included a swimming pool to reward their members and their families, for their endeavour, with a recreational facility where members could exercise and relax in an environment of excellence and tranquillity.
In 1970 this project and foresight was way ahead of its time and showed tremendous forward thinking in pursuing a policy of well being and healthy living for their employees, and it was through this initiative that the Waterford Crystal Swimming Club was founded. The facilities available at the club include a sports hall, sauna, gym, learner pool, a 25 meter 5 lane swimming pool, a lounge & bar, an athletics track, two tennis courts, pitch and putt course and six pitches for various games like soccer, rugby and hockey.
A small number of members formed a committee to initiate a swimming club where children could learn to swim and participate in water safety. This was their primary objective and in time the need to enter the competitive arena was obvious and a natural progression occurred.
The name of Waterford crystal was synonymous with initiative, intuition, integrity and quality, and likewise this was the criteria which created a foundation for the development for all the skill associated with the teaching and coaching of swimming within the Waterford Crystal Swimming Club. This was a decision taken at the beginning that would survive the test of time and create an environment where the quality and pursuit of excellence would be established to ensure that champions would be created and blossom into international athletes. There was always a child friendly atmosphere present within the club structure and this was obvious when travelling way to swimming competitions in the way swimmers interacted with each other in a fun care free manner.
The clubs first breakthrough came when they won a medal in the national community games swimming finals, followed by the first Munster age group and then senior provincial title. The club took great pride in these achievements, but the quest and craving for more would only be satisfied by a total embracing of quality, honesty and reality in terms of structure within the competitive arena. This was pursued and a structure was put in place in the early years to ensure this long term objective would be successful.
This in fact turned out to be the case and the club started to achieve its goals with success at all levels from Munster championships to national and international level success. During the intervening years the club also created new Irish junior and senior individual and relay national records, and so becoming a major player in Irish swimming. The club have reached the stage where the name Waterford Crystal Swimming Club is both feared and respected by competitors in this demanding sport. The club learns from the past, enjoys the present and looks forward to the future with optimism and confidence.
The club has had a number of coaches over the years, the head coach for the last 36 years and even to this day is Brian Williamson (the boss), as he likes to be known as. He built on a small young club and brought it to highly competitive level using his experience and disciplined training sets with many swimmers originating and advancing through the ranks of the clubs swimming lessons which provide a solid teaching base. The club operates on a purely amateur basis but still encourages all its swimmers to embrace and break through the pain barrier, Aim high, Achieve their goals, be a winner!
The clubs long term aim is to continue to create an environment where its members will look back on their swimming careers with pride and fond memories, and feel it was a worthwhile venture in their lives. May it continue to prosper for future generations.

Gary Neville
Position: Defender
Signed: 8 July 1991
Appearances during decade: 357
Goals during decade: 5
Club World Cup: 2008
Premier League: 1999/2000, 2000/01, 2002/03, 2006/07, 2008/09
FA Cup: 2004
League Cup: 2006
Community Shield: 2008
Gary Neville's contribution to the decade may not have been as spectacular as that of some other players, but it was no less vital.
The ultra-reliable right-back has been there since the Reds' very first match of the noughties against Necaxa in the World Club Championship.
He became United's first ever local-born club captain after Roy Keane's surprise departure in 2005, a natural choice given Nev's prominent leadership skills and no-nonsense attitude. Even at 34 he still motors up and down the touchline supporting the attack as if he was still in his mid-twenties.
He's won five league titles this decade, only missing out on a sixth in 2007/08 because of an injury that curtailed his entire campaign. His efforts earned him a place in the PFA Team of the Year in both 2005 and 2007.
Gary has played over 350 times since 2000, and was first choice for England long into the decade. His contribution and commitment to the United cause cannot be overestimated.

Recession victims big on Linux, IDC says
Nowadays, more and more companies are poor and interested in Linux, according to an IDC study sponsored by Novell. The industry bean counter's February poll of 330 IT workers indicates a "surge" of businesses that are either thinking about using Linux or already switching over. Most said the primary reason was to lower ongoing …
Linux is good enough for the desktop now.
I don't know about anyone else but prior to Ubuntu Ibex I liked Linux to a point. I used it personally but it was too "unfriendly" for the rest of the family.
With better WiFi support, better interface and more streamlined operation, the family love it to bits now and use it by preference.
We only dual boot with Xp now for Games that won't run on Wine (which is getting better and better all the time).
Never mind all this shite about Linux not being ready for the desktop.
It's ready NOW. I can't wait for the Jackalope.
I did have a look at the Windows 7 Beta for the fun of it. What a load of old w*nk it is. I'm sorry to use the 'w' word but it truly is appalling. It has no consistent look, the interface is all over the place. I just couldn't find anything. It gave me one big headache. Doing anything on there is just such hard work.
My 2 pennies worth....(and end of anti-Windows rant).
Not Poorhouse, but workhouse
... in the victorian sense
Know the sponsor, know the answer.
What else did you expect from a Novell-sponsored "study"?
Worthless, like all the others.
PS don't assume I'm a Linux basher; quite the contrary in fact.
Well ...
I made the switch and have never been happier. I'd never go back to Windows or MS with a ten-foot pole.
horses for courses
did have a look at ubuntu for the fun of it. What a load of old w*nk it is. I'm sorry to use the 'w' word but it truly is appalling. It has no consistent look, the interface is all over the place. I just couldn't find anything. It gave me one big headache. Doing anything on there is just such hard work.
at the end of the day, whatever OS suits you, it suits you whatever it is...
My 2 pennies worth
My thoughts exactly when I read the article. Even is they did not "select participants"...
Win7, KDE, UNIX
@skelband, funnily enough, Windows 7 seems to look almost IDENTICAL to KDE 4. (Which I am using on one box and have similar complaints about -- inconsistent interface etc.) Don't know if Windows 7 developers saw a KDE prerelease, KDE guys saw Win7, or both were developed in parallel and just came to the same conclusion. But, if the windows logo and kde logo (if any) were blurred out I could probably not tell you which is which. It's really uncanny. (Ubuntu uses gnome rather than kde.)
As for the actual study, yeah. I would expect Windows entrenched setups to be moving to Linux at a lower rate... Linux is a version of UNIX, and UNIXes (to a greater or lesser extent) follow industry standards, so a gradual system-by-system move from UNIX to Linux would be relatively painless, as would a "rip out and replace" in many cases. Windows and the Microsoft ecosystem try to make sure everything runs smoothest in a 100% Windows environment, making the decision to even START moving off Windows a bigger deal. I also think Windows can take more fiddling with to get running and stable, so many wide-scale Windows installs where they've got everything running smoothly are afraid they'd have to fiddle with the Linux installs just as much, which provides a nice inertia to stick with what they already know and have installed.
So finally, some Linux malware?
Sounds like good business ahead for anyone who's ever considered writing Linux malware....... you know, stuff aimed at the unwashed masses who click "Okay" to anything without bothering to read it first.
Next IDC Survey
The Microsoft commissioned IDC survey, due anytime soon, will show people looking to cut costs by moving to Windows 7! It will also show that 99.9% of users who try Linux are back using Windows within 3 months.
RE: Win7, KDE, UNIX
Ubuntu is available in KDE too - called Kubuntu. And polls have shown that KDE remains a firm favourite over Gnome.
Personally, I have never liked Gnome. Last few years running KDE with Beryl and now with Compiz. Since last year, Ubuntu/Kubuntu and Compiz have been working a pretty well together. No more hacking to make it work. My kids seeing Compiz in action on my dual screen home system, really wants to run Linux.. but for the lack of support for their Windows game. And that is also the only reason I still used Windows too - as a gaming console.
As for Linux use on servers... Have been using Linux running corporate servers (web and database) since 2004/2005. I have now close to a 100 x64 blade servers running Linux.. and the number is growing.. with 5 database clusters (biggest are 12 nodes each). Planning to build even more clusters this year.
We are doing things on Linux that are simply impossible on Windows (out-of-the-box) to do.. and for a *lot* cheaper too.
No recession needed for common sense.
2 pennies worth
Isn't Novell involved with OpenSuse ?
As a Linux fan, who's is still working better/faster under Windose, though still attempting to get a clean install of the latest stable version of Linux Server on an old P III, I just need to say, please, please, please, all of you, just finish one off !
I can install Windows 2000 Pro, plus all the patches, plus Apache 2.0 and configure the firewall while I am still trying to understand how to navigate to and read a text file under Ubuntu Server using a command line interface.
It doesn't help that I am also trying to keep the kids fed and their Wondose boxen virus free. But hey, that's what life is like down here where there ain't no IT Support budget for the New Seasons fledgling cottage industries.
Whether it is a case of "Perseverance furthers" or sheer bloodiminded detestation of everything Microsoft that keeps me plugging away at Linuxii since 2000, I don't know. But I'd love for the developer folks to hit on a final solution, and real soon, please.
Oh god...
...not another "This is the year of Linux" story. How many times must we hear this crap? It wasn't true the last time and it's not true this time. considering the report is from a biased source.
You can cut the figures so many ways, and there is no "one" answers. Sometimes Linux is the correct choice, sometimes Windows. Deal with that concept, fanbois.
All I know is...
Windows not only costs $$ to buy, but more $$ to keep it trojan, virus, spyware and malware free. Then there is the 'Upgrade' cycle, spend spend spend. Linux does not incur these additional costs. Those customers of mine who have switched to Linux are only heard from if they do something like buy a printer that doesn't support CUPS, and when a printer claims to support the Mac then it supports CUPS, but just you TRY to get that through to the manufacturers. Other than that the Linux adopters are maintenance free and fee free (unfortunately for me).
One more point... sometimes, as mentioned above, Windows is required, usually for certain popular accounting packages. For those instances we install ONE copy on a Virtual Machine.
Well, now its possible to compile .Net code on Linux and so the balance has switched somewhat now in Linux's favour.
A load of Windows "Mission Critical" apps on Windows servers now work just fine on Linux and I know there are moves afoot in certain places to port real-world stuff over. Some of this stuff even, ironically, performs faster on Linux.
Added to the robustness of Linux servers and their relative hardness to attack, I could see a (albeit slow but gradual) significant drift away from Windows.
It would make good technical as well as fiscal sense in significant business areas.
2009 is the Year of GNU/Linux
GNU/Linux is on a roll. There is news that the French have realized huge savings with it. The trolls on the GNU/Linux boards are being drowned out by the weight of rational users of GNU/Linux. M$ is laying folks off and selling more vapour-ware. The recession is forcing many to opt for lower cost after waiting out Vista. Thin clients are steadily advancing and GNU/Linux works well on them. The netbooks continue to be a bright spot. BRIC countries are hardly slowing down in their adoption of GNU/Linux. Large businesses and the retail buyers are about the only customers M$ can rely on these days and the retail customers are seeing some GNU/Linux on the shelves.
The recent study by IDC shows a huge shift in sentiment. A couple of years ago KACE did a similar study. These results are consistent with those and show that GNU/Linux has matured on desktop and server. With virtualization/thin computing GNU/Linux continues to shine. By the end of 2009 there will be more than 10% of desktops using GNU/Linux. Some parts of the world will be at 20%. At these levels of adoption, few on the planet will not know about GNU/Linux and everyone will be able to make a choice. The current regime where M$ pays OEMs to install that other OS is not sustainable. If M$ cannot stop the slide in 2010, they will have lots of downside. M$ is effectively cutting its prices now, but hiding the fact with NDAs. The SEC filings continue to tell the tale.
@Robert, AC and Greg (In that order)
Linux costs, it is not free (in the sense of beer). If you want support, you need to pay. You many need to pay for licenses (depends). Whilst there may well be some savings in the initial purchase, you have to look at the whole picture.
Linux costs money to keep it clean as well. The OS is not magical, it needs good admins and they cost. Linux does suffer from attacks and flaws, although ones intended for Windows will not affected (obviously) and their number is reduced. This is not an excuse to run Linux without firewalls and other safeguards (well, not unless you are extremely feeble minded). As Linux gains in popularity, so will the attacks.
Printers are not readily supported on Linux. The £200 that I would need to spend to get a new printer is one of the things preventing me from switching. It's that kind of cost the people often forget about.
.Net does not compile reliably on Linux, nor does pre-compiled code run reliably. Mono has not implemented enough of the API (yes, I have tired it) to be viable. WINE is still not ready (by their own admission). Legacy systems (e.g. MS Office integrations) cannot be migrated without significant expense in terms of development, infrastructure and re-training. Many web-based business systems demand IE6 and ActiveX support - not going to happen on Linux in a reliable way.
I run Linux in virtualisation at home, my laptop runs Linux, my second box at work is a dual boot into Linux, my g/f wants me to install Linux on her laptop once her project finishes, I have another Laptop I want to beat with the Linux stick. I like Linux, I really do. But I am not so besotted that I am going to let the infatuation run away with my head.
I cannot wait for the day we get a major customer who wants to go Linux, run OpenOffice etc. It will be fantastic (I've even gone as far as to prove to our architects that I can run our server stack on Linux with ease); but I will be waiting a very long time. Until then is it MS all the way simply because that is what our customers use (SharePoint? It's getting *massive* adoption) and is thus the business standard. You must also remember that corporations move at a speed that makes glaciers seem fast.
This is not the year of Linux, come see me again in 5 years; then maybe we can see if the Penguin has gotten anywhere.
soon you will be able to run what you want on what you have, [just some os will still have to be paid for]
Linux and printers etc...
You don't need huge amounts of money to purchase a printer that works on Linux. Epson and HP both offer very good support, for example Epson give a link on their website to download Linux drivers for new Epson printers.
Linux still needs improvement - and many would probably call me a Linux fanboi - but Linux is being CONSTANTLY improved. It's strength, as ever, is its flexibility. I've built mail servers running on old P2-350s, new Linux servers carrying out the work of 3 Windows servers, high-end Linux gaming PCs running WINE...
In my experience Linux workstations and servers have run flawlessly over the years, with only trashed hard drives putting either out of action. Our Linux-only customers rarely come in to say anything other than "Hello" and purchase supplies; our Windows customers are regularly coming back due to viruses, malware, corrupted file systems and so on. Those that have converted to Linux - including Joe and Jane Bloggs - have all expressed how happy they are with Linux.
I don't think we'll have a "Year of the Linux", such things always happen gradually. Adoption of Mac and other Unix-like OSs may cramp Microsoft's market share, and it may even wipe Windows off the face of the earth. Time will tell, but 365 days is never enough.
Anyway, my 3-year-old's favourite animal is now the Penguin :)
A golden opportunity for Linux
I've used Linux (Ubuntu) for a couple of years now and love it, although I must qualify that by saying I'm not a gamer. The only real issue I've had is occasional hardware compatibility problems (just like Windows Vista, huh?). Some here complain that they install a Linux distro and then can't immediately navigate it. Wouldn't that be true for any OS that one is unfamiliar with? Some argue that Linux isn't "free" in a corporate setting that requires training and support. I suspect a side-by-side cost analysis with Windows would clearly favor Linux, particularly with all the Microsoft updates, problems with backward compatibility, etc. Linux is stable, has relatively few bugs, and is more secure than Windows - didn't the U.S. Army adopt it for combat missions recently?
Microsoft has contributed to their problems with Vista - resource hog, hardware incompatibility, and ongoing security issues. Also, Microsoft's idea of "security" seems mostly to be to protect its property from pirates rather than to protect the user from malware.
I hope Linux folks take advantage of this "window" of opportunity.
Printer support ...
This is an often cited problem, but the fact is if you have installed CUPS then any printer than claims to work with Macs should also work with Linux. So far, bearing this in mind, I've not had a problem. That's not to say problems don't exist -- but they also exist in just as many guises on Windows.
Of course Linux costs money to maintain (like any OS) but it requires *less of it* and that I think is very significant. No?
Total Cost of Ownership is demonstrably less with Linux than with Windows: especially if there is a sane and sensible set of permissions and restrictions in place on desktops. There usually is with Windows systems so the same need only also apply to Linux installations.
I never used to really believe the Linux TCO line until I have had it repeatedly demonstrated both on a personal level and on a professional one too. I'm convinced enough to make decisions of policy based on that. I'm not evangelising. Linux ain't perfect, agreed. But it gets in the way less.
Forgot to say ...
Mono 2 is in fact currently feature compatible with .Net and it does compile extremely well. I can't speak for your experience, AA, but in mine I find there are no major issues thusfar.
ActiveX? NO -- it doesn't work in Linux. For very good reasons. By ActiveX do you mean "ActiveX" or COM?
I will, again, go and check out Mono. I had written it off. The last time I tried it was 6 months ago.
I have just scanned with Mono 2.2. It says that all the methods exist, but 407 chuck NotImplementedException.
Hardly what I would call "feature complete".
@ AA re Mono 2.2
What, like code written with .Net 2005 compiles faultlessly with .Net 2008, you mean?
I can't say anything about your particular configuration, but it could be the way you are configured. I've seen no issues either with console apps or winform implementations myself, some of which are very complex. If there has been a complaint from the compiler, for me, it is usually a matter of just checking references and maybe adding (or removing) a couple. Natch, DB libraries will need to be changed for sure. But I've found alternative implementations of these without too much digging.
From a purely personal viewpoint, I'm seriously very impressed just how compatible and stable Mono has been thusfar and how few issues I've encountered, considering. I've been writing software since I was 23 (I'm now 47) and I've never seen anything compile cross-platform so well. Apart of course from something as trivial as:
void main()
printf("hello, world");
I'm certain I'll find something major that will explode in my face but I think you protesteth too much ...?
I'm not even sure that Mono IS the way to go for Linux (some regard it as an MS Trojan Horse and dislike it for that reason alone) but in the meantime it offers very interesting possibilities.

Diarrhoea is defined as the abnormal passage of loose or liquid stools more than three times daily and/or a volume of stool greater than 200 g/day. There is no agreement on the duration of symptoms that define chronic as opposed to acute diarrhoea. However, it is usually accepted that symptoms persisting for longer than four weeks suggest a non-infectious aetiology and therefore should be further investigated.[1]
Using a definition based on excessive stool frequency without the presence of abdominal pain, estimates of the prevalence of chronic diarrhoea in a Western population are 4-5%.[1]

- Ulcerative colitis and Crohn's colitis.
- Microscopic colitis: a type of inflammatory bowel disease, which typically presents in older age groups with chronic watery diarrhoea. Colonoscopy appears normal and a definitive diagnosis can only be made with multiple colonic biopsies.
- Ischaemic colitis.
- Constipation with faecal impaction and overflow.
- Small bowel:
- Coeliac disease.
- Crohn's disease.
- Other small bowel enteropathies (eg Whipple's disease, tropical sprue, amyloid, intestinal lymphangiectasia).
- Bile acid malabsorption, eg Crohn's disease affecting the terminal ileum, after ileal resection, cholecystectomy, coeliac disease, bacterial overgrowth and pancreatic insufficiency.
- Disaccharidase deficiency.
- Lactose intolerance.
- Small bowel bacterial overgrowth.
- Mesenteric ischaemia.
- Radiation enteritis.
- Lymphoma.
- Pancreatic:
- Endocrine:
- Hyperthyroidism.
- Diabetes mellitus (and other causes of autonomic neuropathy).
- Hypoparathyroidism.
- Addison's disease.
- Hormone-secreting tumours (VIPoma, gastrinoma, carcinoid).
- Chronic infection, eg amoebiasis, giardiasis, hookworm, Cryptosporidium spp., Entamoeba histolytica (may be bloody diarrhoea).
- Recent antibiotic therapy and Clostridium difficile infection.
- Previous surgery:
- Post-gastrectomy.
- Extensive resections of the ileum and right colon lead to diarrhoea.
- Bacterial overgrowth, particularly in bypass operations such as in gastric surgery and jejuno-ileal bypass procedures for morbid obesity.
- Shorter resections of the terminal ileum can lead to bile acid diarrhoea that typically occurs after meals and usually responds to fasting and colestyramine
- Chronic diarrhoea may also occur in up to 10% of patients after cholecystectomy.[3]
- Drugs: for example, laxatives, antibiotics, digoxin, cytotoxic drugs, magnesium-containing antacids, metformin, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs.
- Food additives such as sorbitol and fructose.
- Alcohol: diarrhoea is common in alcohol abuse.
- Immunodeficiency.
- Factitious diarrhoea (may be associated with an eating disorder).
- Symptoms suggestive of organic disease include a history of diarrhoea of less than three months' duration, predominantly nocturnal or continuous (as opposed to intermittent) diarrhoea, and significant weight loss. The absence of these, in association with symptoms suggesting IBS and a normal physical examination suggest functional bowel disturbance but do not exclude organic gastrointestinal disease.[1]
- Malabsorption is often accompanied by steatorrhoea and the passage of bulky foul-smelling pale stools.
- Colonic, inflammatory or secretory forms of diarrhoea typically present with liquid loose stools with blood or mucous discharge.
- Assess for the presence of any 'red flag' indicators suggesting a possible serious underlying cause:
- Unintentional and unexplained weight loss.
- Rectal bleeding.
- Diarrhoea persisting for more than six weeks, in a person over 60 years of age.
- Family history of bowel or ovarian cancer.
- Abdominal mass.
- Rectal mass.
- Anaemia.
- Raised inflammatory markers (may indicate inflammatory bowel disease).
- Look for other features suggesting an underlying cause, eg recent travel abroad, laxative and other possible drug causes, features of systemic disease (eg thyrotoxicosis, diabetes, adrenal insufficiency, systemic sclerosis), features of pancreatic disease (abdominal pain, steatorrhoea).
- Assess for features that indicate a diagnosis of IBS. In young patients (under 45 years) with other typical symptoms of a functional bowel disorder and negative initial investigations, a diagnosis of IBS may be made in primary care without further investigations. However, patients under 45 years with atypical and/or severe symptoms should have further evaluation.[1]
- Always do a digital rectal examination in people with unexplained symptoms related to the lower gastrointestinal tract, provided this is acceptable to the person being examined.
- FBC: anaemia or raised platelet count suggesting inflammation.
- LFTs, including albumin level.
- Tests for malabsorption: calcium, vitamin B12 and red blood cell folate, iron studies (ferritin).
- TFTs.
- ESR and CRP: elevated levels may indicate inflammatory bowel disease.
- Antibody tests for coeliac disease - IgA tissue transglutaminase antibody (tTGA), or IgA endomysial antibody (EMA).
- Stool for culture and sensitivity and examination for ova, cysts and parasites: if an infectious cause is suspected or there is a history of travel to high-risk areas. Consider sending stool for testing for Clostridium difficile if a previous episode has resolved and the symptoms have recurred.
- Refer urgently under the two-week wait rules if red flag symptoms or signs are present:
- Symptoms suggestive of colorectal or anal cancer.
- Aged 40 years or older, reporting rectal bleeding with a change of bowel habit towards looser stools and/or increased stool frequency persisting for six weeks or more.
- Presenting with a right lower abdominal mass consistent with involvement of the large bowel.
- Presenting with a palpable rectal mass (intraluminal and not pelvic).
- 60 years or older, with a change in bowel habit to looser stools and/or more frequent stools persisting for 6 weeks or more with or without rectal bleeding.
- Men of any age with unexplained iron-deficiency anaemia and a haemoglobin level of 11 g/100 mL or less.
- Non-menstruating women with unexplained iron-deficiency anaemia and a haemoglobin level of 10 g/100 mL or less.
- Refer for further assessment and management if:
- History, examination, and blood test results suggest coeliac disease, Crohn's disease or ulcerative colitis.
- The diagnosis is uncertain.
Further investigations in secondary care[1]
- History or findings suggestive of malabsorption:
- Small bowel:
- Distal duodenal biopsies.
- Barium follow-through.
- Endoscopy.
- Bacterial overgrowth: glucose hydrogen breath test, jejunal aspirate and culture.
- Pancreatic:
- CT scan of pancreas.
- Faecal elastase or chymotrypsin.
- Further structural tests: endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography or magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography.
- History or findings suggestive of colonic or terminal ileal disease.
- Flexible sigmoidoscopy if aged under 45 years (the diagnostic yield is not different to colonoscopy in this group).
- If aged over 45 years, colonoscopy is preferred to barium enema.
- Terminal ileum: barium follow-through. 99m technetium-labelled white cell scanning is useful in testing for intestinal inflammation and has equivalent sensitivity to small bowel follow-through in the assessment of terminal ileal Crohn's disease.
- Small bowel:
Further investigations
If the above tests are largely unremarkable and diarrhoea is persisting then the following should be considered:
- Inpatient assessment - may help to determine laxative abuse.
- 24-72-hour stool weights.
- Stool osmolality, osmotic gap.
- Laxative screen.
- Gut hormones: serum gastrin, VIP, urinary 5-HIAA.
- This depends on the underlying cause.
- There may be a role for symptomatic treatment with antimotility drugs - eg codeine, loperamide - in some cases but only when a definite diagnosis has been made and it is definite that there is no cause-associated contra-indication.

Customers demand refunds from fake Apple store in China
What would you do if you bought a shiny new Apple computer (from what looked to be a shiny Apple store) only to find out that the store that sold it to you was a total fraud? We're guessing there would probably be some screaming involved. For customers in the Chinese city of Kunming, the revelation that their city's Apple hub was a counterfeit (albeit, a damn impressive counterfeit), has led to angry customers demanding refunds.
Reuters described the scene today, two days after news about the fake store spread, thanks to an eagle-eyed American expat blogger:
'When I heard the news I rushed here immediately to get the receipt, I am so upset,' a customer surnamed Wang told Reuters, near tears. 'With a store this big, it looks so believable who would have thought it was fake?'
Wang, a petite, 23-year-old office worker who would not give her first name, spent 14,000 yuan ($2,170) last month buying a Macbook Pro 13-inch and a 3G iPhone from the Kunming store. She wasn't issued a receipt at the time, with staff telling her to come back later.
'Where's my receipt, you promised me my receipt last month!' Wang shouted at employees, before being whisked away to an upstairs room.
On Wednesday, an American blogger living in Kunming first wrote about the store, which popped up in her neighborhood:
They looked like Apple products. It looked like an Apple store. It had the classic Apple store winding staircase and weird upstairs sitting area. The employees were even wearing those blue t-shirts with the chunky Apple name tags around their necks ... We struck up some conversation with these salespeople who, hand to God, all genuinely think they work for Apple.
The media pounced and the story spread quickly. It's even been given the crazy-animated-news treatment (yes, that appears to be Steve Jobs in a Darth Vader helmet).
The store said its products were genuine Apple computers and were being sold at the same price as you would find on Apple's website. And staff said they were angry by all the media attention the blog has caused.
"The media is painting us to be a fake store but we don't sell fakes, all our products are real, you can check it yourself," one employee told Reuters. "There is no Chinese law that says I can't decorate my shop the way I want to decorate it."

There are several supplements and medications, which can be purchased online without the need for a prescription. People might be wondering if it is possible to purchase Adipex without prescription notes from a medical doctor. This particular brand contains an ingredient known as Phentermine. This ingredient is made available to the general public under other brand names which do not require the use of a prescription to purchase them. This ingredient is an appetite suppressant which reduces a person's desire to overeat.
In most cases, the brand Adipex is prescribed to people who are overweight and have health problems. The regulations regarding the sale of certain drugs without prescriptions is designed to prevent people from experiencing aide effects from taking the drugs improperly.
Even though it might not be possible to obtain the brand Adipex without prescription documentation, the same ingredient available in other diet aids will still provide the same effects.

In this case, they could have the brand of Adipex available for sale without a prescription. This does not mean the drug has been tested and is safe for people to use. Within the United States, there are many online merchants who sell similar products containing the same active ingredient which have been tested and come with a full disclosure of any potential side effects. Some common side effects associated with this drug include blurred vision, migraine headaches and insomnia.

Lens Grapher Interface
The interface for the Lens Grapher is best understood as six distinct segments.
- Menus and Shelf Buttons
- Working Filename
- Lens Data Graph
- Table of Values
- Viewing Options
- Status Report Bar
1. Menus and Shelf ButtonsEvery Command that is used in the Lens Grapher can be found in the one of the 4 menus:
- File
- Open (CTRL + O)
- Close (CTRL + W)
- Save files (CTRL + S)
- Exit Program (CTRL + Q)
- Edit
- Bake Offsets (CTRL + B)
- Undo (CTRL + Z)
- Redo (CTRL + Y)
- Average Cells (SHIFT + A)
- Delete Point (DEL)
- View
- Toggle Viewable Area Graph (CTRL + F)
- Toggle Graphing Over Rack Zoom or Rack Focus (CTRL + G)
- Toggle Graphed Lens Parameter (CTRL + H)
- Toggle Non-Highlighted Graph Visibility (CTRL + R)
- Toggle Graph to Force Drawing to Zero as Reference Base (CTRL + 0)
- Focus Step Increment Down (CTRL + LEFT ARROW)
- Focus Step Increment Up ( CTRL + RIGHT ARROW)
- Zoom Step Increment Down ( CTRL + UP ARROW)
- Zoom Step Increment Up (CTRL + DOWN ARROW)
- Help
- About Lens Grapher
- About Calibration File
- About Lens Parameters
- Open
- Save
- Undo
- Redo
- Close File
- Bake Offsets
- Average
- Delete Points
2. Filename and pathThis section gives the filename and full path so it's easily readable and you always know which file you're working on. The "asterisk" becomes present at the end of the filename when the file has changed.
3. Lens Data Graph
Navigating the Graph
- The graph is interactive in that you can click and drag around the graph to view different pieces of it.
- Use the mouse wheel to zoom in and out of the graph
- Scrolling down to a Chart Magnification Factor of 1 will always reset the graph, in case you've lost your place
- The farthest the Chart Magnification Factor will zoom in is to a factor of 20
Along the top of the graph, the title displays which dependent lens parameter is being graphed over the currently user selected independent parameter
- Dependent Lens Parameters
- Focal Length
- Distortion
- Entry Pupil
- Independent Lens Parameters
- Rack Zoom – Focal Length Step
- Rack Focus – Focus Distance Step
Missing Data = Broken Lines
Any missing point(s) in the data file will render as a gap in the graph. This is visual feedback to the user that data is missing from the lens file, or has been deleted.
Modifying the View
Forcing The Graph to ZeroIn the options tab on the right, there is a checkbox to "Force Graph to 0″. This ensures that all graphed data is drawn with relation to a zero value.The hotkey for this is CTRL+0.
NOTE: This is an excellent tool to use when viewing the "Viewable Area" graph!! Doing this will force showing all three graphs: viewable area, entry pupil, and focal length.
Showing / Hiding Non-Hilighted GraphsSometimes the number of graphs being rendered can obfuscate data interpretation. To this end, you can show, or hide, the currently non-hilighted data. In the Options box on the right of the interface is a slider for "Non-Highlighted Graph Opacity." The slider controls the opacity of the graphs and allows for a smooth graduation of opacity from opaque to completely transparent. There is an embedded hotkey to toggling the opacity slider from off to partially opaque to fully opaque and back around again. That hotkey is CTRL+R.
4. Table
Viewing DataThe table shows data for all present calibration points in the lens. Any points that are missing or deleted are labeled as such.
Editing DataType new values in to the selected cell. Selected cells have a light yellow background color. If you prefer you can overwrite data through the Averaging procedure.
- Averaging
- The averaging function works on selected cells, where the order of selection is important
- You may select anywhere from 3 cells to as many cells as are available in your data.
- So, if you select four cells: A1, A2, B4, D6
- This implementation allows for selecting non-adjacent cells when creating the final average output.
Hilighting DataUse the CTRL and ARROW keys to navigate and highlight data in both the graph and table
"Deleting" PointsThe "Del" key will delete any selected cell(s) from the table. Any deleted cell(s) will be removed from the graph. NOTE: "deleted" cells can be reconstituted (either by undeletion or the assigning of a new value)
"Missing" Points"Missing" points render as "deleted" points do in the graph. In the table they show up as "missing" points. These points Cannot be reconstituted in the Lens Grapher and must therefore be reassigned in Previzion (via lens calibration interface) or by hand editing the text file.
5. Viewing Options
The options for the Lens Grapher are broken into three sections:
- Z00m – Focus Controls
- Lens Parameters
- Options
Zoom – Focus Controls
Use the radio buttons to select which independent variable to view the data by zoom or by focus. Below are images that illustrate the difference
The sliders decide which graph and point are highlighted in both the graph and the table.
Lens Parameters
Choose which of the three dependent lens parameters to graph. Or…
Choose the viewable area graph.
Change the alpha opacity of the non-highlighted graphs with the opacity slider
Please note that when no columns or rows are highlighted then the opacity for all graphs defaults to full on

A-men: Addison Reed loved Angels
BY DARYL VAN SCHOUWEN email@example.com September 22, 2012 12:32AM
Mark Trumbo, A.J. Pierzynski
Related Stories
Updated: October 23, 2012 6:13AM
ANAHEIM, Calif. — White Sox rookie closer Addison Reed grew up about 30 miles from Angel Stadium rooting for Jim Edmonds, Tim Salmon and Troy Percival.
"The Angels were my favorite team until the day I got drafted by the Sox,'' Reed said. "Percival is the whole reason why I wanted to start closing — watching him come in for the ninth inning.''
So it's understandable why Reed, 23, was more psyched than usual before the game Friday at the Big A. When the Sox played here in May, Reed didn't get to pitch.
He left knowing there would be another chance. He hoped they would be meaningful September games.
"Hopefully I'll get to pitch in the next three games,'' Reed said. "But if we win all three and I don't, that would be OK, too.''
Immediate family, relatives, friends from high school and "half my team from San Diego State" were planning to be on hand this weekend.
Manager Robin Ventura, of Santa Maria, Calif., also had a large contingent of family on hand.
"Too many,'' he said. "They're coming to watch me sit in the dugout.''
Konerko returns
After taking one day off to recharge for the last 13 games of the regular season and possible postseason, Paul Konerko returned to the lineup as the designated hitter. Ventura revealed that Konerko has been dealing with a stiff back. Konerko downplayed it Friday.
"We'll find out when we get out there,'' Konerko said. "It was nothing overly bad.''
Ventura said Konerko might play first base Saturday.
Pennant race
Much of the discussion in and around the Sox' clubhouse after two bad losses in Kansas City is that Sox hitters tried to do too much. With pennant-race pressure mounting, the Sox were 2-for-20 with runners in scoring position in those losses. Two baserunning mistakes Thursday also were costly.
Ventura said he spoke to individuals but not to the team as a whole about those issues.
"You just continue to play,'' Ventura said. "Nobody is doing things on purpose, but sometimes I think guys want to do more. They try to do more than they need to do. The game is in front of you. Just play the game and enjoy. "
Crain on the move
Reliever Jesse Crain has one of best moves to first for a right-hander. He came close to picking off Jarrod Dyson in the ninth inning Thursday in Kansas City before Dyson stole second and scored the winning run on Eric Hosmer's single.
"Since I was in high school, I've had a pretty good one,'' Crain said. "I played shortstop through college, and I like to think of myself as an athlete. I have short arm action, too, so that goes into it. It gives me a little advantage, keeping guys close.''
The bullpen owned an ERA of 0.96 in the last seven games before Friday. Nate Jones (8-0) has thrown 171/3 scoreless innings in his last 17 appearances, the longest active streak in the American League.

This creates the tea's clean, high quality taste that can't be found anywhere else on the market today.
Infused with Jasmine
Teaposy blossoms not only have flowers sewn into them, they are infused with the scent of jasmine as well. However, no artificial flavorings or perfumes are used to create this soothing aroma. Jasmine flowers are handpicked at their peak blooming time of 1 pm and placed with the Teaposy buds for hours so they can naturally absorb the floral scent. When placed in hot water to brew, the teaposy will fill the air with jasmine as it slowly opens.
Hand-Crafted Quality
From start to finish, every teaposy is carefully crafted by hand to create a blooming work of art. First, the tea is handpicked, dried, and withered for two hours at 212o to remove impurities. Then, the Silver Needle Tea is sorted leaf by leaf and placed in bundles of equal length and weight. Once sorted, fresh flowers and the Silver Needle White Tea are hand-sewn together to create the beautiful shapes revealed during the brewing process. Each piece of Teaposy Glassware is hand-blown with the utmost care and precision to create a product that is truly one of a kind. Designed to present an unparalleled tea experience, Teaposy Glassware gives you maximum clarity for a full view of your blooming tea. Teaposy's elegant logo is featured on each piece, and with a variety of sizes and styles to fit any occasion, you can collect the entire set.
Heat-Resistant Glassware
Teaposy Glassware is made from Borosilicate glass to withstand temperatures between -4° and 300°F. The Tea for More teapot is designed to let you pour your tea easily without disturbing the flower to give you a beautiful, undisturbed view of each teaposy.
Immediately after each teaposy is created, it is vacuum-sealed for freshness, ensuring it arrives at your home just as it left the Fujian Province in China.

AbstractThe broad aim of this book is to explore the pattern and determinants of Korean foreign direct investment. The main focus is on Outward Direct Investment, but data and analysis are provided on both inward and outward flows in developed and developing counties in order to arrive at a better understanding of the dynamics at work.At the beginning of the 1990s, Korean firms embarked on an impressive wave of direct investment abroad. This dramatic multinationalization was considered to be yet another sign of Korea's remarkable economic performance, especially as a high proportion of the foreign ventures were located in advanced countries. But this unbalanced quest for globalization actually tested the 'Korean model' to its limits; after the 1997 crisis an new policy course prepared the way for a surge of inward investment.Using empirical tests and case studies, this collection shows that Korean groups have invested in developed countries to jump over trade barriers, and also to source advanced technology and marketing capabilities. Moreover, their ambitious strategies have been stimulated by oligopolistic rivalry among the chaebols. From a policy perspective, the book provides an original discussion of national ownership by questioning the substitutability of inward and outward foreign investment and its relationship with the evolution of the national innovation system.By shedding light on the pattern of Korea's internationalization, these essays make a valuable contribution to the theory of international production and provide important insights into current policy debates on globalization and innovation-led growth. The Book also sheds light on the reform of chaebols, which is underway since the 1997 Asia crisis.Online ChaptersChapter 1 - Introduction – PDF … KoChapter 9 - Conclusion – PDF … Ko

As one member of Grazia Team Beauty gets set to take on NY Fashion Week once again, there has been a flurry of excitement in hearing that beauty fave Nars are opening their flagship store on Wednesday. Perfect timing or what?! Located on our all time favourite Manhattan street, Bleecker, the Nars store will be nestled in between the Magnolia Bakery and Marc Jacobs' shop and we can't think of a better place for a Fashion Week spruce-up.
When we're in the Big Apple later this week, we, of course, will be doing our best to get our hands on the exclusive new lipstick shade called 413 Bleecker, priced at around $25. And, to make matters even better, a little birdie tells us that Nars will be collaborating with long-term friend and now next door neighbour, Marc Jacobs! We knew that Nars would be doing the make-up at Marc's upcoming show but this news has really brightened up our Monday morning. We heart you, Nars.

[2.3.] ôHow to Make Our Ideas Clearö (1878).
This article is the second of the ôIllustrations of the Logic of Scienceö series published in Popular Science Monthly from 1877 to 1878 (the first was ôThe Fixation of Beliefö).
It contains the first appearance in print of the idea that has come to be called the ôPragmatic Maximö (PM), and so it is plausible to think of it as the publication in which pragmatism was first introduced to the public, even though nowhere in the article does Peirce use the expression ôpragmatic maximö or ôpragmatism.ö
[2.3.1.] The First Two Degrees of Clearness.
Peirce describes three different levels or ôdegreesö of clearness that a concept can have.
The first two levels were recognized by the rationalist philosophers Descartes and Leibniz (whom Peirce discusses in section I of this essay).
The third level of clearness is something that Peirce himself is introducing. The pragmatic maxim is the tool that he uses to clarify concepts to that third degree.
To illustrate these three degrees of clearness, IÆll use the concept gold.
The first two degrees of clearness are as follows:
1. Being ôfamiliarö with the concept, so that you are able to ôrecognizeö the concept wherever it occurs. What Peirce may mean by this is the ability to tell the difference between things to which the concept applies and things to which it does not apply.
À You have attained this level of clarity with regard to the concept gold when you can sort things according to whether or not they are gold.
À This corresponds with the ôclearnessö of ideas emphasized by Descartes and Leibniz.
2. Being able to give a verbal definition of the concept, such as you can find in a dictionary.
À You have attained this level of clarity when you can define the word ôgoldö (such as: ôa soft, yellow, corrosive-resistant element, the most malleable and ductile metal, occurring in veins and alluvial deposits and recovered by mining or by panning or sluicingö[1]).
À This corresponds with the ôdistinctnessö of ideas emphasized by Descartes and Leibniz.
But Peirce thought that this degree of clarity could be improved upon, that we can attain a level of even greater clearness.
[2.3.2.] The Pragmatic Maxim.
Peirce intended the Pragmatic Maxim (PM) to be a rule for clarifying the meaning of concepts beyond the second degree of clearness by showing how the meaning of a belief is connected to action (purposeful behavior) and the experiences that we have after performing an action.[2]
Here is how states the Pragmatic Maxim in 1878Æs ôHow to Makeàö:
Consider what effects that might conceivably have practical bearings, we conceive the object of our conception to have. Then, our conception of these effects is the whole of our conception of the object. (138)[3]
Here is a formulation that captures this idea:
The meaning of a concept is given by a description of the experiences you will have as a result of performing actions that involve objects to which the concept applies; in particular, it is given by a list of conditionals (if-then statements) of the following form:
ôIf you do [specification of some action], then you will experience [specification of some experiential consequence].ö
The first part of the conditional specifies some behavior or test or ôexperimentö that a person can perform; the second part specifies the experiences that will follow as an effect of performing that test.
[2.3.3.] Illustrations of the Pragmatic Maxim.
EXAMPLE 1: silver
Consider the claim ôThis ring is pure silver.ö What does this claim mean? Its pragmatic meaning is given by a list of conditionals (if-then statements), e.g.,
À If you raise the temperature of the ring to 100░ F, it will not melt.
À If you raise the temperature of the ring to 1763.2░ F, it will melt.
À If you raise the temperature of the ring to 3924░ F, it will boil.
À If you hammer it, it will flatten out.
À If you wear the ring around your finger, it will not turn your skin green.
This is how the PM ties the meaning of concepts to both actions and sensible effects: the PM gives the meaning of a concept in terms of the experiential consequences of engaging in certain actions.
EXAMPLE 2: hard
As an example of the application of the PM, Peirce gives the concept hard (138).[4] [Peirce is considering the word ôhardö in its strict, mineralogical sense.]
The pragmatic meaning of the claim that an object, e.g., a diamond, is hard is given by a list of conditionals, such as:
À If you attempt to scratch it with a knife, then the diamond will not be scratched.
À If you attempt to use it to scratch a piece of glass, then the glass will be scratched.
On PeirceÆs view, this list of conditionals is all that is (pragmatically) meant by the word ôhard.ö There is no hidden quality of hardness inside the diamond. To say that it is hard is to say simply that if you do specific things with it, then specific sensible results will occur.
Peirce himself illustrated the PM by applying it to the following concepts of physical science:
À hard (138)
À weight / heavy (140)
À force (140-42; requires an understanding of the Parallelogram of Forces)
À lithium:
If you look into a textbook of chemistry for a definition of lithium, you may be told that it is that element whose atomic weight is 7 very nearly. But if the author has a more logical mind he will tell you that if you search among minerals that are vitreous, translucent, grey or white, very hard, brittle, and insoluble, for one which imparts a crimson tinge to an unluminous flame, this mineral being triturated with lime or witherite rats-bane, and then fused, can be partly dissolved in muriatic acid; and if this solution be evaporated, and the residue be extracted with sulphuric acid, and duly purified, it can be converted by ordinary methods into a chloride, which being obtained in the solid state, fused, and electrolyzed with half a dozen powerful cells, will yield a globule of a pinkish silvery metal that will float on gasolene; and the material of that is a specimen of lithium. The peculiarity of this definitionùor rather this precept that is more serviceable than a definitionùis that it tells you what the word lithium denotes by prescribing what you are to do in order to gain a perceptual acquaintance with the object of the word.[5]
Later we will see how he applied it to a few other concepts that are more relevant to philosophy: reality, and truth.
Stopping point for Thursday January 31. For next time, finish reading ôHow to Make Our Ideas Clear,ö pp.144-150.
[1] American Heritage Dictionary, second college ed.
[2] As Cheryl Misak notes (Verificationism, ch.3), this is one way that the PM differs from the Verification Principle of the Logical Positivists: ôS is empirically meaningful if and only if S is verifiable by experience, i.e., can shown to be true or false by means of the senses.ö The Positivists took their principle to specify the conditions of a sentence having any empirical meaning whatsoever. Peirce, on the other hand, took the PM to be a method of uncovering only part of the meaning of a belief or idea. PeirceÆs view seems to have been that an idea can be pragmatically meaningless without being altogether meaningless; while the Verification Principle implies that a sentence that cannot be verified by way of experience is empirically meaningless altogether. For more on Verification Principle, see my lecture notes from Analytic Philosophy: http://www.westga.edu/~rlane/analytic/
[3] EP1:132; CP 5.402. Much later, in 1905, he stated it as follows:
... a conception, that is, the rational purport of a word or other expression, lies exclusively in its conceivable bearing upon the conduct of life; so that ... if one can define accurately all the conceivable experimental phenomena which the affirmation or denial of a concept could imply, one will have therein a complete definition of the concept, and there is absolutely nothing more in it. (ôWhat Pragmatism Is,ö EP2:332; CP 5.412)
And the following passage, from 1868's ôSome Consequencesàö, seems to anticipate the aspect of the Pragmatic Maxim in which it locates the meaning of a thought in other thoughts:
àno present actual thought (which is a mere feeling) has any meaning, any intellectual value; for this lies not in what is actually thought, but in what this thought may be connected with in representation by subsequent thoughts; à (p.87)
[5] ôSyllabusö, c.1902, CP 2.330, emphasis added.

PROVIDENCE — Dating back several seasons, the very idea of placing Providence College and "defense" in the same sentence resulted in snickering along with several knee slaps.
In 2012, Ed Cooley's PC Friars are getting after it in such ferocious fashion that the opposition is having a hard time getting off the canvas. More punishment was meted out Tuesday as Providence stomped on Holy Cross, 61-42, before a rather subdued crowd, which was announced at 4,596.
CUMBERLAND — There once was a time when Trevor Crawley wanted to follow his own plan – and, of course, his coaches – but not so much his dad's.
Mike Crawley, a 1981 Shea High graduate who earned All-State second-team laurels in outdoor track and later represented both the Community College of Rhode Island and Southern Connecticut State University, apparently had tried to offer some advice as to the nuances of distance running, but it was a "no-go.
On the surface, the decision to push back the entire slate of R.I. semifinal-round playoff games to Wednesday seems as simple as the quarterback receiving the snap.
Seven of the eight games on the docket were already based at venues where light fixtures are part of the ambiance. The lone exception: Woonsocket's Barry Field.
However, thanks to Villa Novans athletic director George Nasuti obtaining portable lights, the situation was remedied.
Paul M. Breault
BURRILLVILLE- Paul M. Breault 67, resident of Harrisville, passed away November 20, 2012 at the Landmark Medical Center in Woonsocket.
He was born in Providence RI, a son of the late Jesse & Anna (Riley) Breault.
Paul was salesman for the Nexus Co., previously he taught science at the Callahan School. He lived most of his life in Providence; he was an avid stamp collector and novelties. Paul enjoyed baseball and football.
Jeffrey D. McKenna
WOONSOCKT- Jeffrey D. McKenna, 80, of Woonsocket, RI, passed away peacefully at his home on November 25, 2012 surrounded by friends and loves ones.
Born October 7, 1932 in Brooklyn, NY, son of the late Euclide and Emerilda (Decasse) McKenna.
He was the devoted husband of Doris (Cournoyer) McKenna with whom he shared 60 wonderful years.
PAWTUCKET – The Pawtucket Red Sox will host their Annual Christmas Party at McCoy Stadium on Saturday, December 8 from 11 a.m.–2 p.m. The PawSox' Christmas Party is a free event open to fans of all ages. Boston Red Sox catcher Ryan Lavarnway will make a special appearance along with two members of the PawSox Governors' Cup championship, infielder Tony Thomas and outfielder Jeremy Hazelbaker.
WOONSOCKET — Members of the City Council had plenty to say about the potential loss of a $200,000 city loan owed by the 67-unit Glenark Landing housing complex Monday night, but also admitted that any fight regarding their concerns would be best taken to the General Assembly.
The discussion of the Glenark's takeover by the Rhode Island Housing agency and potential foreclosure on Friday came during a council work session in the panel's second floor meeting room at City Hall and included a number of council jabs that the agency was again hitting city taxpayers in their pocketbooks.
WOONSOCKET — An ex-con on an armed robbery spree got caught after holding up McDonald's in North Smithfield early Saturday morning.
Vernon Lamont Thomas, 37, of 372 Robinson St., committed three of the crimes in five days and the last two in less than seven hours, according to police.
Thomas was arrested at Grove and Logee streets about 5:26 a.m. Saturday, about a mile from McDonald's, still carrying a heavy cash drawer witnesses had seen him lugging away from the Park Square restaurant about an hour earlier, according to reports.

2010 OPEN FORUM Abstracts
Kathy J. Rye1,2, David C. Shelledy3; 1College of Health Related Professions, Cardio-Respiratory Care Program, University Arkansas Medical Sciences, Little Rock, AR; 2Central Arkansas Veterans Health System, Little Rock, AR; 3College of Health Sciences, Rush University, Chicago, IL
Background: A greater emphasis on interdisciplinary education (IDE) of health professionals is needed to promote collaborative, cost-effective and patient-centered care. The purpose of this study was to examine the use of IDE in respiratory care (RC) educational programs across the United States (US) and to determine the attitudes of program directors (PDs) regarding IDE activities. Methods: A questionnaire addressing the practices of and perceived needs for IDE was developed and field tested. Two hundred two (202) PDs were invited to participate in the survey through electronic mail which included a link to the online questionnaire. Anonymity of responses was maintained, collected data were compiled into an Excel database and descriptive statistics were calculated. Results: Participants included 52 RC PDs (26% response rate) from across the US at a variety of institutions (65% from 2-year colleges; 22% from 4-year colleges or universities; and 10% from academic health centers). Associate degrees were offered at 81% of these programs and baccalaureate degrees at 33%. Thirteen percent (13%) of the programs offerred both associate and baccalaureate degrees. More than half (58%) of the responding PDs indicated they incorporate planned interdisciplinary activities involving students from two or more disciplines into their programs curriculum. These activities occur most frequently in the clinical setting, during traditional classroom activities, or in web-based courses. Ninety-eight percent (51/52) of survey participants had a positive attitude toward IDE and believe it is or would be beneficial to students. However, only about 50% (25/52) of the program directors believe that they have the resources needed to implement IDE. Conclusions: IDE is important in the preparation of future health professionals and has the potential to be incorporated into the education of RC students. More attention should be focused on increasing the number of RC educators who have the resources needed to teach from an interprofessional perspective and to share best educational approaches for collaborative patient-centered practice. Providing IDE is essential to ensure RC graduates are prepared to work effectively on interprofessional teams within the evolving healthcare system.
