PIKEVILLE, Ky. — The Pike County Convention and Visitors Bureau (PCCVB) hopes the success of two recently hosted conferences are the beginning of putting Pike County on the map as a tourist destination.
The Kentucky County Clerks' conference was held in Pikeville in June and the County Judges Association conference this September.
Each conference was designed not only to highlight the wonderful attractions Pikeville/Pike County offers, but locations throughout the region were also included on the itinerary, in particular the Breaks Interstate Park and Stone Crest Golf Course. Tours of reclaimed surface mines within the region were also included in the conferences, adding an educational element to the visit.
The recent national attention created by the Hatfield and McCoys miniseries has been a springboard to a burgeoning tourist trade, said Pike County Tourism Marketing Director Jay Shepherd.
"With the advent of the Hatfields & McCoys miniseries, Pike County is quickly moving from being a tourist stop to a tourist destination," Shepard said. "Being the homeplace of the feud makes our region a one-of-a-kind place to visit."
Local historian Reed Potter, who has been giving a tour of feud sites in and around Pikeville, gave a condensed history of the conflict earlier this year with the PCCVB. He said people who have lived in the area all their lives often don't discuss the most famous feud in the world.
"We say, its embarrassing, why should we talk about it," Reed said. "It isn't a great thing, but it is important to learn from it, from this tear in our society. We aren't glorifying violence, but this happened, the murder trial took place right here at our courthouse. We need to own it."
While interest in the feud may bring visitors to the area, the PCCVB hopes to keep people in the county with other attractions, CVB Executive Director Tony Tackett said.
"Our goal is to lead people in, and then keep them here," Tackett said."We have renamed Cut-Thru Adventures, it is now the Hatfield McCoy River Trails, with kayaking tubing and canoes, anything we need to succeed. Families are taking 'staycations' this year, and we have a lot going on."
""We have been given the opportunity to highlight our community as a place to be educated and entertained," Tackett said. "As our visitors learn more about our many attractions, such as the Hatfield and McCoy historic sites, the 'eighth wonder of the world' the Pikeville Cut-Thru Project, and Breaks Interstate Park, they come to appreciate what Eastern Kentucky has to offer."
Pike County Tourism CVB has an article detailing the unique destinations and attractions that Pike County offers visitors for conferences and conventions on their website, TourPikeCounty.com.
Tackett said the City and the County are making the most of opportunity brought about by the miniseries and documentary to create lasting opportunities.
"We need people, we need more businesses here to keep our people here," he said. "We are a small community with a big heart."

Medical image management system to allow any conventional Internet browser to function as a medical workstation. The system may be used to convert medical images from a plurality of image formats to browser compatible format. The invention also relates to methods to manipulate digital medical images in such a way that multiple imaging modalities from multiple different vendors can be assembled into a database of Internet standard web pages without loss of diagnostic information.

a transfer engine for receiving medical Image data from an Image data source;
a converter engine for converting medical image data to a browser compatible Image format connected to receive medical image data from the transfer engine, wherein the converter engine comprises:
a decoder engine for extracting Image pixel data from Image data;
a physiologic knowledge engine for reducing the Image pixel data without loss of diagnostic data connected to receive the extracted pixel data; and
an encoder engine for converting Image pixel data to a browser compatible format connected to receive Image pixel data, whereby image data is converted to the browser compatible format without loss of diagnostic data; and
a post engine for posting the browser compatible Image to a database connected to receive converted Image data.

4. The method of
The present invention relates to medical imaging. Specific exemplary embodiments discussed relate to cardiac medical imaging.
The description of art in this section is not intended to constitute an admission that any patent, publication or other information referred to herein is "prior art" with respect to this invention, unless specifically designated as such.
Medical imaging is important and widespread in the diagnosis of disease. In certain situations, however, the particular manner in which the images are made available to physicians and their patients introduces obstacles to timely and accurate diagnosis of disease. These obstacles generally relate to the fact that each manufacturer of a medical imaging system uses different and proprietary formats to store the images in digital form. This means, for example, that images from a scanner manufactured by General Electric Corp. are stored in a different digital format compared to images from a scanner manufactured by Siemens Medical Systems. Further, images from different imaging modalities such as ultrasound and MRI are stored in formats different from each other. Although it is typically possible to "export" the images from a proprietary workstation to an industry-standard format such as "Digital Imaging Communications in Medicine" (DICOM) 3.0, several limitations remain as discussed subsequently. In practice, viewing of medical images typically requires a different proprietary "workstation" for each manufacturer and for each modality.
Currently, when a patient describes symptoms the patient's primary physician often orders an imaging-based test to diagnose or assess disease. Typically days after the imaging procedure, the patient's primary physician receives a written report generated by a specialist physician who has interpreted the images. The specialist physician, however, typically has not performed a clinical history and physical examination of the patient and often is not aware of the patient's other test results. Conversely, the patient's primary physician typically does not view the images directly but rather makes a treatment decision based entirely on written reports generated by one or more specialist physicians. Although this approach does allow for expert interpretation of the images by the specialist physician, several limitations are introduced for the primary physician and for the patient:
"Teleradiology" allows images from multiple scanners located at distant sites to be transferred to a central location for interpretation and generation of a written report. This model allows expert interpreters at a single location to examine images from multiple distant geographic locations. Teleradiology does not, however, allow for the examination of the images from any site other than the central location, precluding examination of the images by the primary physician and the patient. Rather, the primary physician and the patient see only the written report generated by the interpreters who examined the images at the central location. In addition, this approach is based on specialized "workstations" (which require substantial training to operate) to send the images to the central location and to view the images at the central location. It would be advantageous to allow the primary physician and the patient to view the images at other locations, such as the primary physician's office, at the same time he/she and the patient see the written report and without specialized hardware or software.
In principle, medical images could be converted to Internet web pages for widespread viewing. Several technical limitations of current Internet standards, however, create a situation where straightforward processing of the image data results in images which transfer across the Internet too slowly, lose diagnostic information, or both. One such limitation is the bandwidth of current Internet connections which, because of the large size of medical images, result in transfer times which are unacceptably long. The problem of bandwidth can be addressed by compressing the image data before transfer, but compression typically involves loss of diagnostic information. In addition, due to the size of the images the time required to process image data from an original format to a format which can be viewed by Internet browsers is considerable, meaning that systems designed to create web pages "on the fly" introduce a delay of seconds to minutes while the person requesting to view the images waits for the data to be processed. Workstations allow images to be reordered or placed "side-by-side" for viewing but again an Internet system would have to create new web pages "on the fly" which would introduce further delays. Finally, diagnostic interpretation of medical images requires the images are presented with appropriate brightness and contrast. On proprietary workstations these parameters can be adjusted by the person viewing the images but control of image brightness and contrast are not features of current Internet standards (http or html).
It is possible to allow browsers to adjust image brightness and contrast, as well as other parameters, using "Java" programming. "Java" is a computer language developed by Sun Microsystems specifically to allow programs to be downloaded from a server to a client's browser to perform certain tasks. Using the "Java" model, the client is no longer simply using the browser to view "static" files downloaded from the server, but rather in addition the client's computer is running a program that was sent from the server. There are several disadvantages to using "Java" to manipulate the image data. First, the user must wait additional time while the "Java" code is downloaded. For medical images the "Java" code is extensive and download times are long. Second, the user must train to become familiar with the controls defined by the "Java" programmer. Third, the user must wait while the "Java" code processes the image data, which is slow because the image files are large. Fourth, "Java" code is relatively new and often causes browsers to "crash". Finally, due to the "crashing" problem "Java" programmers typically only test their code on certain browsers and computers, such as Microsoft Explorer on a PC, precluding widespread use by owners of other browsers and other computer platforms.
Wood et al. (U.S. Pat. No. 5,891,035) describe an ultrasound system which incorporates an http server for viewing ultrasound images over the Internet. The approach of Wood et al., however, creates web pages "on the fly" meaning that the user must wait for the image processing to complete. In addition, even after processing of the image data into a web page the approach of Wood et al. does not provide for processing the images in such as way that excessive image transfer times due to limited bandwidth are addressed or provide for "brightness/contrast" to be addressed without loss of diagnostic information. In addition, the approach of Wood et al. is limited to ultrasound images generated by scanners manufactured by a single company (ATL), and does not enable viewing of images from modalities other than ultrasound.
Referring to
While the present invention relates to medical imaging generally, it will be better understood within the discussion of exemplary embodiments directed toward cardiac imaging.
The current invention proceeds from the realization that if medical images of different formats could be processed in such a way that limitations of current Internet standards could be overcome, any standard Internet browser could be used as a diagnostic workstation to allow any medical image to be viewed from any location on earth without specialized hardware or software. Once this goal has been achieved the following actions becomes possible:
Accordingly, one embodiment of the invention is directed toward a method of managing medical images. A plurality of medical images created by a plurality of medical imaging devices, each of which processes the medical image using a unique image format, is received. The medical images are then converted to a common image format suitable for display on a computer screen. Preferably the method comprises posting the converted images for access via a client computer. Browser compatible pages having embedded tags corresponding to the converted images are preferably generated and posted with the converted images.
Another embodiment of the invention is directed towards a medical image database comprising images corresponding to a plurality of different modalities. The database is preferably organized in a hierarchical data structure where the data structure comprises a patient identifier parameter and an image modality identifier parameter. The image identifier parameter is associated with at least one of the plurality of modalities. The patient identifier parameter is preferably at a higher level in the hierarchical data structure than the image modality identifier parameter.
In one method of managing medical images according to the present invention, images are pulled from a scanner in response to a user request. The pulled images are converted to a common image format compatible for display at a computer. The converted images are then posted for display at a client computer. Preferably the method includes displaying to a user at the client computer a selection comprising images associated with at least two different modalities. The method also preferably comprises simultaneously displaying on a screen a medical image to a first user at a first location and a second user at a second location.
A medical image system, according to the present invention, comprises a medical image management system. In a preferred embodiment the medical image management system comprises a transfer engine for receiving image data from a scanner; a converter engine connected to receive images from the transfer engine and convert the images to a browser compatible format; and a post engine connected to receive images from the converter engine and post the images for subsequent access by a user.
In a preferred embodiment, the converter engine comprises a decoding engine for extracting raw image data; and a physiologic knowledge engine adapted to receive data from the decoding engine. The physiologic knowledge engine adjusts the image quality and reduces the size of the image data, which is then transferred to a post engine. The physiologic knowledge engine is primarily responsible for reducing the image file size without loss of diagnostic data though other aspects of the invention are used to reduce file size while maintaining viability of the data. The encoding engine converts the image data to browser compatible image data.
Other objects and advantages of the present invention will be apparent to those of skill in the art from the teachings herein.
In the interest of enabling one of skill in the art to practice the invention, exemplary embodiments are shown and described. For clarity, details apparent to those of skill in the art and reproducible without undue experimentation are generally omitted from the drawings and description.
The present invention is discussed in relation to imaging with specific applications discussed in relation to cardiac images, however, other uses will be apparent from the teachings disclosed herein. The present invention will be better understood from the following detailed description of exemplary embodiments with reference to the attached drawings, wherein like reference numerals and characters refer to like parts, and by reference to the following claims.
The herein-described invention has been constructed and tested on images of the heart acquired using a variety of modalities. The images have been pulled from commercial scanners, processed without loss of diagnostic information, adjusted with respect to brightness and contrast, and posted on Internet web pages for viewing.
Preferably the scanner, and hence modality, is associated with magnetic resonance imaging, echocardiographic imaging, nuclear scintigraphic imaging (e.g., SPECT single photon emission computed tomography), positron emission tomography, x-ray imaging, and combinations thereof.
Responsibility for the entire process is divided amongst a series of software engines. The processes of the transfer engine 20, decoding engine 22, physiologic knowledge engine 24, encoding engine 26, and post engine 28 (
The transfer engine 20 is responsible for pulling the images from the scanner 16 for example, in response to a user request (Step 2010). (
The decoding engine 22 (
The physiologic knowledge engine 24 (
An example of how the physiologic knowledge engine 24 functions is given in
In Step 4030, thumbnail movies are extracted for which the FOV is reduced by cropping the images to contain only the organ of interest (e.g. the heart). For a typical file size of 2,000 KB for a movie with 16 frames, the processes herein described would result in a 20-fold reduction in movie file size for the thumbnails (to 100 KB) and 6-fold for full FOV images (to 400 KB). (See
In Step 4040, the frame rate is chosen to simulate real-time motion (e.g. a beating heart would have all frames play within one heart beat or about 1 second). In Step 4050, full FOV images are created with a magnification which fills the user's entire screen because this is what a cardiologist would like to see for a heart image. Each thumbnail can be "clicked" by the mouse to initiate transfer of the entire FOV for that movie, also in a few seconds. Importantly, this is achieved without loss of diagnostic information, without the need to adjust brightness/contrast, and without the need to adjust the frame rate of the movie. Step 4060 comprises adjusting other parameters, if warranted. When the physiologic knowledge engine 24 has completed these tasks on all images from a given patient, they are passed to the encoding engine 26.
The encoding engine 26 (
The post engine 28 (
Once the images are posted as web pages, additional web pages can be used to allow the technician or physician to rearrange the order of the images on the web page according to the diagnostic question. For example, echocardiographic images are often acquired before and after a drug to increase heart rate has been given (e.g., dobutamine). The images before and after the administration of dobutamine are best viewed side-by-side for comparison. Arranging the images side-by-side can be achieved by allowing the user to select images using html standard web page "forms." The form data can then be submitted using web-standard Common Gateway Interface (CGI) protocols and processed by the server using a CGI program written specifically for this purpose. The CGI program could then create a new web page in which the image containers are arranged side-by-side and the html "image tags" are set to point to the images defined by the user. Rearrangement of the images occurs very quickly because the images do not require further processing or transfer across the internet.
As shown in
Using this type of structure, one can now define a hierarchical Internet addressing system in which any image from any modality for any person acquired on any date will have an unique, pre-determined Internet address. For example, the hierarchical address could involve first the social security number of the patient, then the imaging modality, followed by the scan date. (See
http://www.imagedatabase.com/usa/123456789/mri/23 Sep 2027 Further, it is a priori known that any MRI images of that patient taken anywhere, anytime in his/her lifetime are listed by scan date at:
http://www.imagedatabase.com/usa/123456789/mri and further that all images of any modality that have ever been acquired of that patient in his/her lifetime are listed at:
The section of the URL "www.imagedatabase.com" refers to the company offering to serve the images over the Internet. Such a company would not process the images in any way because the images have already been processed as described herein. Rather, the sole function of such a company is to provide computing hardware which reads the "static" image data from a hard disk and pushes the data over the Internet (note that both still-frame images and movies are contained in "static" computer files). Because the images are already stored in the format of Internet web pages, no processing of the data is required resulting in maximum speeds for image access and transfer and ensuring minimum cost for the overall system.
In fact, specialized computers which are capable of no function other than reading from a hard disk and pushing the data over the Internet already exist and could easily be assembled into a array of servers providing access to an extremely large amount of data over the Internet for minimum cost. For example, currently a commercial system of this type provides 120 GB of storage for $3000. With 10 MB of image data per patient scan (typical), this system would provide permanent Internet access to 12,000 complete MRI patient scans for a cost of 25 cents each (exclusive of electrical and maintenance costs). Importantly, this type of world-wide database would be difficult if not impossible to construct if the processes described herein were not employed.
Thus, using the current invention a database of images can be constructed with maximum Internet performance and without loss of diagnostic information. Importantly, the processes described herein allow viewing of images from multiple modalities side-by-side by the primary physician and/or the patient. Further, the database structure facilitates the storage of image data from multiple modalities and multiple scans over a patient's lifetime in a single location identified by the patient's name, social security number, or other unique identifier. This ability would be expected to significantly enhance the ability of the primary physician to determine the course of action which is in the best interest of the patient.
While the invention has been particularly shown and described with reference to particular embodiments thereof, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes in form and detail may be made therein without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention. The scope of the claimed invention is intended to be defined by following claims as they would be understood by one of ordinary skill in the art with appropriate reference to the specification, including the drawings, as warranted.

The legend of Mamie Thurman began with the brutal murder of a 32-year-old woman. Her murder made headlines not only back in 1932, but her story lives on because the murder was never solved.
It all began when the body was found by a youngster picking blackberries along a mountainous road on June 22 of that year. The murder was what would be described as "overkill" she had scrapes, cuts and contusions, had been shot twice and her throat was slashed.
The body had had been thrown out into the weeds about 15 feet from the road.
Speculation began and the rumor mill ground out theory after theory. Married to Logan city policeman Jack Thurman, Mrs. Thurman was known to frequent the speak-easys in downtown Logan, and she was allegedly having an affair with Harry Robertson, a Logan businessman. Robertson later admitted in court to having "improper relations" with Thurman.
"Police find blood clues in Robertson home—Probers investigating theory of murder in Robertson basement," were June 24, 1932 Logan Banner headlines. Also on the front page of the paper that day was a history of events from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. documenting the day of the funeral.
On June 28, the headline "Robertson released on $10,000 bond – Hearing in Thurman case adjourned until July 7."
The investigation took a turn, with headline that read, "New evidence is found in Thurman case; prosecutors confer behind closed doors."
Robertson employed a black handyman, Clarence Stephenson, who was said to be very short in stature. Maybe even a dwarf by today's standards. Robertson was blamed for the crime and arrested and transported to the Mingo County jail.
July 8, headlines "Thurman blood on Robertson's car revealed in tests of blood by state chemist," and, "Gossip Mongers Rapped: Throngs gather long before opening of court. Many bring own chairs from home."
The same day, the Banner printed another front-page story, "Startling information learned through reliable source – Stephenson writes, asks sister to tell Robertson not to worry, that he wouldn't tell."
On Mamie Thurman's death certificate, it says she was buried at Logan Memorial Park in McConnell, while other stories say that her body was transported to her hometown of Bradfordsville, Kentucky. But her actual resting place is part of the mystery because the cemetery in Kentucky has no record of Thurman's interment.
The scandalous tales and accusations faded into a mysterious cold case and transitioned into a ghost story and the topic for many magazine articles and books.
There have been many claims of sightings by people who drive near the Holden area, especially near the 22 Mine Road where Thurman's body was found. The stories say they saw or picked up a woman wearing old-fashioned clothing, only to see her vanish.
This ghost story is a Halloween favorite, but it is thought that her soul constantly wanders the hills, seeking justice and never allowing the taking of her young life to be forgotten.

Linguistik-Klassifikation: Grammatikforschung / Grammar research
- Generative grammar (2001)
- Generative Grammar is the label of the most influential research program in linguistics and related fields in the second half of the 20. century. Initiated by a short book, Noam Chomsky's Syntactic Structures (1957), it became one of the driving forces among the disciplines jointly called the cognitive sciences. The term generative grammar refers to an explicit, formal characterization of the (largely implicit) knowledge determining the formal aspect of all kinds of language behavior. The program had a strong mentalist orientation right from the beginning, documented e.g. in a fundamental critique of Skinner's Verbal behavior (1957) by Chomsky (1959), arguing that behaviorist stimulus-response-theories could in no way account for the complexities of ordinary language use. The "Generative Enterprise", as the program was called in 1982, went through a number of stages, each of which was accompanied by discussions of specific problems and consequences within the narrower domain of linguistics as well as the wider range of related fields, such as ontogenetic development, psychology of language use, or biological evolution. Four stages of the Generative Enterprise can be marked off for expository purposes.

Congratulations to Dr. Tony Magagna, who was selected as the next Warren G. Hardy Distinguished Professor of English. Dr. Magagna will be working on an exciting project. In his words
the project will focus on exploring what I call the "collapsing boundaries" ofcontemporary literature. In particular, it will investigate the ways in whichnew media and technology influence literature across the board, in how wecreate, read, teach, and even define it in the 21st century. New technologiesand digital interconnections have undeniably reshaped our lives, and we cannotignore that these, therefore, have and will reshape the modes of narrative thatwe have long used to capture and comment upon our experiences of the world. Myfocus will be threefold: on literature that takes on our digital age as asubject matter; on new forms of narrative that utilize new media and technologyto tell or retell stories in new ways (video games, fanfiction, interactiveapp-based books, "twitterature," etc.); and on the ways we can teach/study boththis new literature, as well as traditional literature using these new tools.The ultimate outcome of the project will be both new research on these subjects,but also at least one new course here at Millikin, tentatively entitled "HybridLiteratures."
Fall semester 2014 has begun and the English faculty are excited to meet and come to know all their new students. They have been busily preparing their courses over the summer and are ready to bring theory and practice together to allow for true performance learning in the classroom. English students have also returned, or arrived for the first time, and seem ready to move forward in doing what it takes to achieve their educational and professional goals.

This looks like a solid offering and a great start to the new year! As long as its not freemium based with weapons, it seems like a great idea.
The Drowning set to revamp first-person shooters on mobile
A refreshing new first-person shooter game for iOS was announced recently called The Drowning. It's being built by some of the folks that worked on Halo, Battlefield, and Far Cry, so as you'd expect the graphics look absolutely spectacular so far, but that's not even the most interesting thing about the game.
The main thing these guys are trying to do is revamp the way FPS titles are played on mobile, and that means ditching the dual-stick layout. Instead, they're trying out a new layout where one taps to shoot and swipes to turn around. Players fire with two fingers instead of one, as you might expect; the shots land in between where two fingers tap, and pinching zooms down the sights. Weapons will be craftable (!) and upgradeable, apparently. Besides all that, the game's story seems extremely interesting, which you can get a taste of in the trailer below.
That's an interesting twist on the classic mobile first-person shooter, especially in the wake of Modern Combat 4, which leans heavily on the dual joystick layout (though there is the option for gyro controls). Expect The Drowning to launch on iPhone and iPad early next year for free. More info is available at their home page over here.

Patrolman First Class Marc Bailey grew up in Summerville, attended Pinewood Prep and graduated from Summerville High School.
The 32-year-old comes from generations of community service givers so its no surprise he has followed the path.
After joining the U.S. Army in the aftermath of 9/11, he spent four years in the service.
In 2005, he went to work in sales for the food and beverage industry for a while.
With the economy starting to tank, he says he looked at law enforcement as a financially secure career. So he went to work in 2008 for Harleyville Police and then, in 2010, came to Summerville Police Department.
Although he may have chosen law enforcement for the steady paycheck, police work is part of his DNA, as is community service. His maternal great grandfather was chief of police here and his grandfather was city engineer and served on both the town and county councils.
His mother, Margaret, was a dispatcher, reserve police officer and is currently the Registrar of Deeds for Dorchester County.
Bailey began his SPD career in patrol and is currently in traffic.
We kill more people on our roads in South Carolina, than by any other means other than natural death, he says. If I can make a difference by locking up impaired drivers, it is worth it.
Bailey is certified in Radar/Lidar, Standard Field Sobriety Test (SFST), DataMaster, and ARIDE Advanced Roadside Impaired Driving Enforcement. He is also a DRE Drug Recognition Expert.
He is an SFST instructor, is certified in three phases of collision reconstruction and has earned the state title of Traffic Safety Officer. He is also certified in pedestrian/bicycle accident reconstruction.
He is almost certified as a motorcycle crash reconstructionist and as a speed measuring device instructor, and will be taking the basic instructor development course in June.
By August or September, he says, he will have earned his Traffic Safety Instructor certification.
His short-term goal, he says, is to be a sergeant in the traffic unit.
His long-term goal? I would like to be chief or sheriff.
If I could afford to live on state congressional pay, I would like to be a congressman.
His worst experiences, he says, are death notifications especially someone killed by an impaired driver.
His best experiences are getting to see where we make a difference in someones life.
Such as a couple of years ago when he dealt with a woman being abused by her husband.
I was called out on that call and I sat down and talked with her she finally left and is now leading a happy life.
Bailey owns his home and shares it with human and canine roommates. The canine is a Rottweiler, Kip, who is 7. His human roommate has been his best friend since they were kids.
Bailey plays rock guitar acoustic and electric and loves to ride four-wheelers.
He doesnt, however, have a lot of free time.
My roommate and I own our own business, he explains, 911 Homecare landscaping and stuff.
He says hes been known to cook, enjoys it and is good at it.
I enjoy reading, nonfiction, and playing sports.
He played baseball and soccer in school. He loves watching college football and is a Clemson Tigers fan after all, his granddad went to Clemson.
He likes to hunt and fish but says he doesnt have much time for it any more.
His life goal is to settle down and have a family at some point.

Green Mountain Coffee says sales strongSTAFF REPORT | February 07,2013WATERBURY Green Mountain Coffee Roasters Inc. has reported positive first-quarter results.
The Waterbury-based company said Wednesday its net sales were $1.3 billion for a 13-week period ending Dec. 29, up from $1.158 billion for the same quarter the previous year.
Our strong first-quarter performance underscores the connection consumers have to their Keurig brewers; the soundness of our business model; and the value inherent in our brand portfolio, said Brian P. Kelley, GMCRs president and CEO, in a statement.
Single-serve portion packets made up the bulk of sales, amounting to $863.7 million worth of product, a 21 percent increase from the same period the previous year. Sales of brewers and accessories totaled $377.3 million, an increase of 14 percent. Other products and royalties decreased by 12 percent to $98.1 million.
The number of brewers sold was 4.95 million, an increase of 18 percent over the prior year period, but that amount doesnt include returns.
Kelley, a former Coca-Cola executive who started at the end of last year, said there is untapped potential for the Keurig single-serve brand in the U.S. and globally. The company has formed an international business unit.
We are in the early days of a marked evolution in how consumers purchase, prepare and customize hot beverages in their homes, Kelley said in the statement.MORE IN Vermont NewsBURLINGTON The Vermont Health Department has put out a warning about the wild parsnip, a common...

Linguistik-Klassifikation: Computerlinguistik / Computational linguistics
- The syntactic processing of particles in Japanese spoken language (1999)
- Particles fullfill several distinct central roles in the Japanese language. They can mark arguments as well as adjuncts, can be functional or have semantic functions. There is, however, no straightforward matching from particles to functions, as, e.g., 'ga' can mark the subject, the object or the adjunct of a sentence. Particles can cooccur. Verbal arguments that could be identified by particles can be eliminated in the Japanese sentence. And finally, in spoken language particles are often omitted. A proper treatment of particles is thus necessary to make an analysis of Japanese sentences possible. Our treatment is based on an empirical investigation of 800 dialogues. We set up a type hierarchy of particles motivated by their subcategorizational and modificational behaviour. This type hierarchy is part of the Japanese syntax in VERBMOBIL.

Comments about 3.6V Cordless 18-Gauge 2 in. Straight Finish Nailer:
I have 3 air powered nailers but thought this would be good for jobs where dragging out the air hose would be a pain. I was excited when it arrived and eager to try it out but could not. There was nothing in the write-up mentioning that I needed fuel cells to use it. I think this should at least be mentioned. Now that I have the fuel cells, the product works fine and will come in handy but I still think the write-up was poorly done and could have better explained the product and how it worked. Thank goodness that the gun was in a protective case as I ordered 2 boxes of 18ga nails with it and they and the gun in the case were thrown in a large shipping box with no padding, air bags or protection. The gun was fine but both boxes of nails were broken apart and the largest number of nails still stuck together was 8 so it rendered them unusable. Because of this I would buy another Bostich product but not from CPO ever again. I wrote 2 emails to them explaining the situation and they did not even have the courtesy of responding to me.

Comments about 3.6V Cordless 18-Gauge 2 in. Straight Finish Nailer:
Although I am an avid "Do-It-Yourselfer", this is my first nailer.
I found it very easy to use and it worked perfectly out of the box.
I would most definitely buy it again and do recommend it for other DIYers.

Men's Basketball Jump to 8-2 After Win At Keystone
- Release Date:
- December 13, 2012
- Contact:
- The Office of Sports Information
- (716) 649-7900 ext. 333
LA PLUME, PA – The Hilbert College men's basketball team picked up a big non-conference road win December 12 when they beat Keystone College 75-73. Hilbert never trailed in the game and fought through two late-in-the game ties to improve to 8-2 overall. Anthony Hodge's lay-up with 0:06 remaining sealed the victory while sophomore Trevor Stark {in photo to right} and senior Isaac Bushey both earned career highs.
Stark scored 27 points with three assists and Bushey netted 16 points and pulled down 12 rebounds while Hodge chipped in 15 points and four assists.
Keystone Mike Kelly led three Giants in double figure scoring with 22 points. Tim Benedix and Duncan Lunsford each hit for 15 points for Keystone (4-5).
After both teams traded baskets early in the game, the Hawks extended their three point lead to nine (14-5 by 13:36) fueled by Trevor Starks' six point run. Dan McFarland, Hodge and freshman Jerame Owens sprinkled in a few points, but Stark and Bushey were the only scorers for Hilbert the first 20 minutes. The Hawks were up by eight points by half time with Bushey and Stark scoring the same amount of points that Keystone had as a team (34-26).
Hilbert stretched their lead to as high as 11 points at 11:17, but that is when the Giants offense turned up a notch. They went on a nine-point run over the next two and half minutes to cut the difference to just two points (58-56). McFarland and Hodge got the lead back to seven points before Keystone tied the game twice in the final minutes. Hodge's bucket set the 75-73 difference before Keystone's three-point desperation shot fell short at the horn.
Hilbert was consistent from the floor finishing with .444 field goal percentage while Keystone warmed up in the second half (51.1%) to settle for .424. The hosts out rebounded Hilbert by one (46-45) and both teams crashed for 17 offensive boards. Owens finished with double-digit rebounds again (11) for the third time this season. Hilbert continues to take care of the ball on offense as the team was credited with only nine turn overs.
The Hawks return home to the friendly confines of the Hafner Recreation Center Saturday, December 15 when they host Elmira College (0-7) at 3pm.
Hilbert College, located in suburban Hamburg, N.Y., south of Buffalo, is a private four-year college founded in 1957 in the Catholic Franciscan tradition. With nearly 1,100 students, Hilbert is a dynamic Western New York college that offers career-focused majors, including one of the top criminal justice programs in the region, and more than 50 minors and concentrations. The college's engaging, student-centered campus community offers numerous leadership, internship, and service learning opportunities from which students launch successful careers while making positive changes in their communities. The Hilbert Blueprint promotes a well-rounded student experience over four years – starting with the Foundations Seminar in the freshman year, followed by Sophomore Service, Junior Symposium, and culminating with the Senior Capstone. Hilbert has expanded its academic offerings with the college's first graduate programs and new Accelerated Degree Programs geared to adult learners.

It was the first win since the Nov. 14, 1970, plane crash that killed 75 Marshall University football players, coaches and fans upon returning to Huntington from East Carolina University, where the team had just suffered a heartbreaking 17-14 loss.
The 1971 team had a 2-8 record under coach Jack Lengyel. Team captain was Nate Ruffin.

From 1966 to 1983, Marshall's football program suffered a dismal streak of losing seasons. In 1984, Marshall won its two final games on the road against Illinois State and East Tennessee State to finish with a 6-5 record for its first winning season in 20 years.
Note: The gentleman sitting with his cane in three of these photos was Patsy Jefferson, who owned the Riviera Golf Club with his wife, Thelma, according to Jack Dennis.

"Drilling".....(with respect to Business Intelligence applications and Information Technology). Where did that word come from? What does it mean? What can it mean? I am sure you have heard the phrase "Drill down to detail" before, but you may have also heard "Drill Up", "Drill Out", "Drill Across", "Drill In" and "Drill Through" and don't forget "Drill Anywhere". In general, it means to simply move from summary level information to underlying detail data, either within its current data set or even outside to another data set. Its main purpose is to allow one to easily view summarized information in the form of a chart, table or some graphical visualization with the added ability to "click" on a value, series or region and "drill in" to the next level of detail or out to some other dimension. "Drilling" allows business users to make informed decisions quickly without having to page through sheets of raw data. For example, summarized sales revenue for the year 2010 is $200K, but upon drilling down we see that $175K was brought in by 3 out of 4 regions, leaving 1 region with very low numbers. This...

Uruguay is the most eastern country in all of South America, with a population of nearly 4 million, it is the smallest country in the continent as well as home of the first World Cup of soccer, birthplace of Tango and Candombe and holds one of the finest upscale resorts in the world, Punta del Este. On the past 4th of November more than 80 Yoruguas (colloquial for the people of Uruguay) got together at Hotel Cala di Volpe, just off Montevideo's riverwalk, to checkout our event: Pentaho in Uruguay . The event began early in the morning, and people just kept walking in till the place was packed. We kicked off with some words from Cognus's CEO, José Pedro Toma, who focused on explaining how Pentaho is an ideal solution for mid to large size companies in Latin America, where lowering investment costs is mandatory. I went on to explain Pentaho's features and focus on how the concept of Agile BI can take your average BI project from 6-12 months, to 6-12 weeks. This has been our experience with Pentaho's latest developments, and we even use Agile BI to...

What sells BI software? Sex and Sizzle! What makes BI projects successful? All of the data work done before any grids or graphs are ever produced. It's the side of the business most BI vendors don't talk about as they'd rather just woo and wow people with flash charts and glossy dashboards. Not that there is anything wrong with that – who doesn't like great looking output? But, if the backend plumbing is either too complicated or non-existent, then it doesn't matter how sexy this stuff is. Today Pentaho announced the Pentaho Enterprise Data Services Suite to help make the "plumbing" as easy and efficient as possible. We've enabled people to iteratively get from raw data--from virtually any source--all the way through to metadata and onto visualization in less than an hour. We've enabled a new set of users to accomplish this by taking away many of the complexities. In about 80% of the use cases we encounter, our customers want to quickly create and perform analytics on the fly, do this in an iterative approach, and when satisfied put their projects into production. You shouldn't need a Ph.D in...

Our most recent figures show 156,000 copies of Pentaho software were installed so far this year. These numbers are not download numbers, but installed software that has been used. This includes Pentaho servers and some Pentaho client tools. These numbers do not represent only long-term installations, but also do not represent all Pentaho's software distributions or installations. Since these numbers are not absolutel An analysis by country of these numbers shows interesting results. The Long Tail This chart shows the number of new installations year-to-date for each country. Our data shows new Pentaho installations in 176 countries so far this year. That's out of a total of 229 countries. This is clearly a classic long tail. In fact after the first 20 or 30 countries it is difficult to read values from the chart. This second chart uses a log scale. The line on this chart is almost perfectly linear, showing that the distribution by country is pretty much logarithmic.

Where did the month go? There is never a dull moment at Pentaho, which is probably part of the reason Q3 2010 set an all-time high bookings record, eclipsing the previous best quarter by over 50%. We highlight the major news and accomplishments for you on the BI from the Swamp Blog, Twitter , and Facebook , but with all of the innovation, partnerships, and events happening here at Pentaho, we think it's helpful to have a comprehensive recap of highlights for the month.

I just finished rewatching Kingdom Hospital as the first time I watched it was before I'd read the Dark Tower. I know that SK added a lot of DT referrences into this series so I was watching for these links.
All the way through the series they show a drinks machine with Nozz-a-la all over it but at the very end of the last episode,the drinks machine has changed to Pepsi. Can anyone explain to me why/how, in the context of the Dark Tower series? Have they actually returned to a different version of their world? I'm slightly confused! Thanks
after they have gone back and changed the past by saving Mary,

HAMBURG, NY - On Saturday, December 1st twenty student-athletes and one lone athletic trainer descended upon Woodlawn State Park with the sole intention of taking a freezing plunge into Lake Erie (and maybe have a little fun along the way).
They arrived at 11am and unpacked their tailgating supplies. Chili, hotdogs, cocoa were served hot to combat the cold temperatures they were about to face.
In total the Hilbert College Student-Athlete Advisory Commmittee raised approximately $1,000 for the cause with a continued fundraising effort underway. A good time was had by all!
Hilbert College, located in suburban Hamburg, N.Y., south of Buffalo, is a private four-year college founded in 1957 in the Catholic Franciscan tradition. With nearly 1,100 students, Hilbert is a dynamic Western New York college that offers career-focused majors, including one of the top criminal justice programs in the region, and more than 50 minors and concentrations. The college's engaging, student-centered campus community offers numerous leadership, internship, and service learning opportunities from which students launch successful careers while making positive changes in their communities.

Faith Christian School student, D.J. Deas, poses as Walter Payton, as part of the 4th Annual American Heritage Celebration on February 15. The midday celebration featured a musical tribute to the US Armed Forces and a walking tour through the living Wax Museum of figures such as Pocahontas, Betsy Ross, Martin Luther King, Jr., Amelia Earhart, and various sports legends. Wax figures came to life and shared their stories as loose change was collected in their individual tin cups for the Wounded Warrior Project.

WASHINGTON (AP) - President Barack Obama has been looking to historians for guidance on how to shape his second inaugural's words into a speech for the ages. He's eager to make good use of his twice-in-a-lifetime opportunity to command the world's attention.
He will take the oath of office Sunday in an intimate White House ceremony witnessed by family, and then again Monday at the Capitol before a crowd of hundreds of thousands. Washington will also play host to the traditional inaugural parade and formal balls Monday, as well as a day of service on Saturday that kicks off the festivities.
But it's Obama's inaugural address that will be the centerpiece of the three-day affair. The president will seek to turn the page on a first term consumed by economic turmoil.
