How mobility redefines business
DIMITRI CRIQUELIERE 1200006FY5 email@example.com 163 Visits
Just as the Internet did before, mobile networks—and the devices that exploit them—are radically changing the way we interact with the world. Everything, from how we transact with merchants, to how we educate our students, to how we entertain ourselves, is moving to mobile platforms with stunning speed. And just as with the Internet before, many businesses are profoundly underestimating the full and lasting impact of this still nascent revolution.
We see the evidence of the mobile transformation all around us. Approximately ten times more smartphones and tablets are sold every day than babies are born. The average person checks their smartphone 150 times a day, or nearly once every six minutes. And the market for wearable devices is projected to grow at least fivefold over the next four years.
These mobile devices not only play an important role in our collective consumption of information, they also generate a growing proportion of new information. There are more than 2.5 quintillion bytes of data created each day, including countless uploads of video, images, geo-positioning information and daily updates to social media that increasingly originate from mobile devices, growing mobile data traffic some 80 percent per year. Many businesses are already using sophisticated data analytics to distill insights and context from this increasing volume of digital information. Those insights are informing our understanding of the world around us, and change how people, businesses and governments interact.

Best Of Breed Systems Lead In Battle For Meaningful Use Dollars
Anne Zieger is veteran healthcare editor and analyst with 25 years of industry experience. Zieger formerly served as editor-in-chief of FierceHealthcare.com and her commentaries have appeared in dozens of international business publications, including Forbes, Business Week and Information Week. She has also contributed content to hundreds of healthcare and health IT organizations, including several Fortune 500 companies. She can be reached at @ziegerhealth or www.ziegerhealthcare.com.
This week, Modern Healthcare published a very interesting analysis of ONC and CMS data on which vendors were used for Meaningful Use attestation. The results suggest that the battle for market dominance may be closer than it looks when it comes to producing results that count. Perhaps more importantly, the data suggests that best-of-breed systems may have a stronger foothold than unified systems (see more below).
According to Modern Healthcare, four vendors stood out as leader in the complete inpatient EMR market:
* Epic Systems, with 370 hospitals customers, or 17.9 percent of 2,071 hospitals which have attested using one of the four
* Meditech, with 323 hospitals, or 15.6 percent
* CPSI, with 313 hospitals, or 15.1 percent
* Cerner Corp., with 208 hospitals, or 10 percent
All told, these top four players have sold 1,214 hospitals a complete inpatient EMR system. That's represents 58.6 percent of all systems sold to hospitals that have gotten a Medicare incentive check using a complete inpatient EMR. The top 10 vendors swelling such systems, meanwhile, have sold them to 1,902 hospitals, owning almost 92 percent of this niche, Modern Healthcare notes.
It's important to note, however, that best-of-breed implementations have won even more Meaningful Use dollars, the analysis suggests. In fact, 2,438 hospitals using modular inpatient EMRs have achieved Meaningful Use. According to Modern Healthcare research, three developers lead the modular inpatient EMRs hospitals have used for this purpose:
* Meditech, with 637 hospitals, or 26.1 percent
* Cerner, with 530 hospitals, or 21.7 percent
* HCA Information & Technology Services, with 274 hospitals, or 11.2 percent
Collectively these vendors account for 59.1 percent of modular inpatient EMR market, the analysis shows.
I thought it was quite noteworthy that a larger share of hospitals are using best-of-breed inpatient systems to achieve Meaningful Use than complete inpatient systems. It would be interesting to find out if interoperability was one of the reasons hospitals are making this choice — since we know that the big vendors are shaky on the concept at best.

As I come up with linux ,I found the commands are different in OpenSuse and Ubuntu.
Which of them is suitable to somebody who was new in linux and want to master the command
needed when programming and using linux?
As I come up with linux ,I found the commands are different in OpenSuse and Ubuntu.
Which of them is suitable to somebody who was new in linux and want to master the command
needed when programming and using linux?
I got the impression that OpenSuSE did some things a little unconventionally (kdesu, gksu), but it's a fine (KDE) distro. I've found (K)Ubuntu is a little better for beginners since it has access to huge compiled package repositories, plus the community is unbeatable.
They're pretty similar for most things, including programming.
Whichever one the people around you can ask questions of know. The value of a knowledgeable support network vastly outweigh the benefits of a particular distribution. If you don't have a local support network, I'd go with Ubuntu, they tend to have more useful resources on the 'net (and it's the distro I'd prefer out of those two options).
Any of Ubuntu/Slackware/Gentoo should be fine as a development environment. You didn't mention what kind of programming you're interested in, and that may have some influence on the answer, too.
If you are at all interested in making better code I also recommend dual booting (or running a 2nd computer) into a non-Linux system such as OpenBSD/FreeBSD, OpenSolaris, etc. Writing code that's portable across UNIX systems isn't just a good idea for portability's sake, it can also help shake out some bugs. The same can be said for working with 32-bit vs. 64-bit, big endian vs. little endian platforms. You can pick up an old 64-bit Sun workstation for cheap and use it to test your code.
We'd have to know your preferences better to be able to answer that. Basically any LINUX would do i guess. I heard nice feedback from Ubuntu, though.
I'm running on Ubuntu right now. It was easier than windows to get running. Very smooth. Of course, advanced functions are beyond me right now. With C# classes and everything else I gave up on trying to learn too much and just run it as is. It has a very good user interface, and I've heard a new version is out or coming out as well, probably more eye candy.
Check out Ubuntu. Doing a dual boot can't hurt since then you can try it out! You can also run some distributions straight off the disc to try them out.... Can't hurt to try it when it is free. Much more stable for me than XP, and faster. I HOPE Windows 7 ends up being less of a monster! I'd stick with Ubuntu if it was more compatible with windows programs. .NET development while in school typically isn't done on a Linux distribution!
best wishes, try it out!
I prefer Ubuntu. my 2 cents...
They are tools. Use the one that you are most comfortable with. Really calling them tools isn't a good analogy. Better is to call them vehicles. Use the vehicle that fits your needs and desires.
Actually , as a programmer you would face such questions everyday. Which framework? which language? which data structure ? ... you get the idea. There is no right answer.
Choose any. They are not too different. Soon you would not be a "new learner" and then it wouldn't matter anyway.
Depending on how deeply you want to learn, one possible candidate distro would be Linux From Scratch. It also has awesome documentation and by playing with it will surely make you think more "Linux"-way.
This is a very hard question; most distros aim to be "the best", or at least "good enough" for a wide variety of activities, of course including programming.
It's also an issue that easily spawn "wars", where people fight to claim that the distribution they use is the best, and that all others should conform. Heh.
My current preference is for Gentoo, and I think one (probably minor) advantage it has when programming is that since it is a source-based distribution, you typically never need to bother to get the "development version" of packages. If you have e.g. readline installed, you will have its header file(s) too, and so on. Many other distros split packages into "user" and "developer" versions, so you need to install both packages.
Of course, I guess in those cases the developer packages depend on the non-developer versions anyway, so if you always install developer versions, you'd be all set. Oh well. Nevermind, then. :)
When choosing a linux distro I usually consider two things:
1: packaging system (and release cycle):
Opensuse probably has the most up to date packages of any distro (without building your own), Ubuntu's packaging system tends to hold your hand a little bit more though. I have used both and found that as a developer I slightly preferred Opensuse since it was easier to get the latest versions of development packages (for example, IDEs).
2: default configuration/ease of administration:
All linux distros have their quirks here. Both Opensuse and Ubuntu are well documented and have good support forums. Opensuse has Yast which is a nice one stop shop for most configuration tasks. Ubuntu seems to be slightly better at automatically configuring itself. Really, either distro is fine here.
The good news is that there is not a wrong decision per se. I have used a lot (more than 10) linux distributions and I now stick to Opensuse. Ubuntu was a close second, the only reason that I don't use it is that I found I was often stuck waiting for its 6 month release cycle to get up to date dev packages (building the monodevelop beta was not feasible at the time). Opensuse's build service and the Packman third party repository seem to keep nearly current packages for everything I've ever wanted.
I use Gentoo and Ubuntu for development.
Gentoo I love because I can so easily select which packages I have available and which versions. The guy that did Flash 9 and 10 does his development on a Gentoo system as well.
Ubuntu I enjoy now because it's so stable. After a few years, a Gentoo installation will tend toward some instabilities that require sometimes rebuilding the whole installation.
Another I'd look at is Slackware.
The principles are mostly the same over the different distributions, so I'd suggest you to choose one and dig in. However, there are some considerations to make. If you want to program gui programs you need to make a decision about which graphic toolkit library to use (Qt, Gtk+ ...), which would also imply the choice of your desktop environment (GNOME, KDE, XFCE). As you will notice, in Linux world everything (or almost everything) depends on something else. I'm talking about the packages. It is quite common to reuse available libraries and not write your own so the decisions you would probably have to make are about which libraries/frameworks to use and which language.
I, however, chose Ubuntu and don't feel sorry at all.
It depends on what you want to do. If you want something easy to setup and basically just works, use Ubuntu. If you want to /learn/ Linux, I would recommend Slackware. Getting Slackware up and running will force you to know HOW and WHAT is going on with your installation. This can be good or bad, depending on your desires.
Ubuntu fits the build and the community is very helpful.
If your exploring Linux / GNU as a programmer, you might consider selecting a distribution that uses the apt packaging tool.
You will likely need to install lots of libraries with development headers and obtain the source code to other things. Apt makes it quite simple to do such things, it is very good at resolving package dependencies and fetching source packages.
Distributions using apt (either with .deb or .rpm packages) are Debian, Ubuntu (and its forks) and others.
That being said, Ubuntu does a really good job at keeping up to date with recent libraries and tools, while resisting the urge to cherry pick alpha / unstable code. My desktop is my development machine, I use Ubuntu.
I would vote for Ubuntu. The principles are the same while some of the "commands" are different. I assume you mean differences such as "sudo".
I'm very happy with my Ubuntu Server which handles all my development Windows VMs. I even used Ubuntu desktop on my laptop for a time...at least until I needed Visual Studio on it again. :-)
EDIT - "sudo" does exist in OpenSUSE
Gentoo is the easiest to use. I'd go with that

MGH Hotline 03.25.11 VICKI JACKSON, MD, MPH, has been appointed chief of the MGH Palliative Care Unit.
New chief of Palliative Care
VICKI JACKSON, MD, MPH, has been appointed chief of the MGH Palliative Care Unit. Jackson succeeds J. Andrew Billings, MD, who founded the Palliative Care Unit in 1996 and was its first director. Jackson previously served as acting chief and associate director of the unit.
"Vicki has brought a great deal of expertise, insight, vision and energy to the unit as associate director and will undoubtedly continue to do so as chief," says Dennis Ausiello, MD, chief of the MGH Department of Medicine.
"We are delighted to have Vicki in this new role." Jackson joined the staff of the MGH in 2002. She received a medical degree from University of Wisconsin Medical School and completed a residency and chief residency in Internal Medicine at Cambridge Hospital in Cambridge, Mass. Jackson then completed research training with a Harvard General Medicine Fellowship, during which time she received a master's degree in Public Health from the Harvard School of Public Health. She also completed training in Pain and Palliative Care at the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute and BWH. Recently she has pursued further study in medical education through both the Rabkin and HMS Academy Education fellowships.
Much of Jackson's career has focused on developing and teaching palliative medicine curricula – educating physicians on the benefits of palliative care and how to best communicate palliative care options to patients. She is former director of the Harvard Palliative Medicine Fellowship, considered to be one of the premier training programs in the country, and she currently serves as co-chair for the American Academy of Hospice and Palliative Medicine's Leadership, Education and Academic Development Program. Jackson also co-edits a series for clinician-educators in the Journal of Palliative Medicine.
Jackson's focus on the importance of palliative care for oncology patients most recently resulted in co-authorship of an influential study published in the Aug. 19, 2010 issue of the New England Journal of Medicine. The study demonstrated that the integration of palliative care early in the care of patients with metastatic nonsmall cell lung cancer was associated with improved quality of life, lower rates of depression and prolonged survival.

Dr suspected a blood clot in my leg, sent me for ultrasound, lab sent report saying clot in other leg which was not checked or the issue. Dr called the lab and lab said they were wrong, no clot. Dr still suspected and I was still in major pain and could not put weight on leg. He did not send me to another lab, he just sent me on my way and said call if it gets worse. Problem wasn't solved and I was to wait?! I ended up taking a vacation to another state and as soon as I arrived, I ended up in ER and was diagnosed with blood clot. This could have broken off and killed me while I was driving and killed my passenger!!! I have also had nodules on my thyroid that another doctor finally wants removed after following me 11 years. Dr T disagrees. I went for 2nd opinion, new endo wants it out too. There is also an issue with medication I'm on. He and my Rhuem disagree and I am going for another opinion because I feel stuck in the middle. He just seems to miss so much, I am worried!!

ALBUQUERQUE — While "must-win" might have been too strong of a moniker, the Los Alamos Hilltopper girls basketball team knew Friday night's contest was a "probably should win."
And the team responded.
Facing a tough challenger on the road, Los Alamos earned a big victory over the St. Pius X Sartans.
It was the second of three tough games the Hilltoppers played this week. They lost Tuesday to Class 5A Volcano Vista on the road, then lost to a very good Class 5A team in Sandia Saturday night, 52-33 at home.
Friday night, Hilltoppers survived an ugly first half to grab a big victory over one of their key Class 4A rivals. Spearheaded by a huge second half from post player Erin Kirk, the Hilltoppers broke open a tight ballgame early in the fourth quarter to win going away, 49-37.
Not only were the Hilltoppers able to pick up a victory in St. Sebastian Gymnasium, one of the most difficult places in the state to play, they were able to adjust to the aggressive Sartan pressure and make key baskets despite struggling early in the contest.

March 19, 2014
The French cellist Edgar Moreau, who reaches the age of 20 in 2014, can already look back on a number of exceptional achievements, among them becoming the winner – at the age of just 17 – of the Second Prize in Russia's formidable Tchaikovsky Competition, winning the Young Soloist Prize in the 2009 Rostropovich Cello Competition in Paris, and performing with such distinguished musicians as Valery Gergiev, Gidon Kremer, András Schiff, Yuri Bashmet, Krzysztof Penderecki, Gustavo Dudamel, Renaud Capuçon, Nicholas Angelich, Frank Braley, Khatia Buniatishvili, Gérard Caussé and the Talich Quartet. In 2013 his huge potential was highlighted by France's top music awards, Les Victoires de la Musique, which named him the year's 'Révélation' among young classical instrumentalists.
He has also made his first recording for ERATO with pianist Pierre-Yves Hodique, due for release in March 2014. It is a collection of short pieces – both virtuosic and lyrical. Rostropovich's composition Humoresque features alongside works by, among others: Paganini, Chopin, Saint-Saëns, Fauré, Dvořák, Massenet, Schubert, Poulenc and Tchaikovsky. Although the album focuses on the 19th and 20th centuries, Moreau has a lively interest in contemporary music and looks forward to the opportunity to premiere new works as his career progresses.
A Parisian by birth, Edgar Moreau first realised he wanted to play the cello when he was just four years old – the instrument caught his imagination when he saw a girl having a cello lesson in an antique shop he was visiting with his father. He began lessons soon afterwards, and was giving concerts with major orchestras by the time he was 11 years old. Since the age of 13 he has been a student at the Conservatoire National Supérieur de Musique in Paris. He has participated in masterclasses given by such cellists as Lynn Harrell, Anner Bylsma, Miklós Perényi, Gary Hoffman and David Geringas, and since October 2013 has been attending the Kronberg Academy near Frankfurt – home to the Emanuel Feuermann Conservatory, named after the legendary Ukrainian-born cellist.
Over the 2013-14 season he appears with, among others, the Orchestre National de France in Paris, the Deutsches Symphonie-Orchester in Berlin, and the Orchestre du Capitole de Toulouse (under Tugan Sokhiev), while his recitals include dates at the Auditorium du Louvre and Berlin Philharmonie, and he plays chamber music – with Renaud Capuçon among his partners – at the Easter festival in Aix-en-Provence and in Wurzburg and Saint-Denis. He also joins Capuçon and Khatia Buniatishvili for Beethoven's Triple Concerto in Lugano.
When the editor of the international music website Bachtrack saw Edgar Moreau perform in Gstaad in early 2013, he had the following to say: "One always comes to a young musician's concert with a hope that this will be that special day when you hear a performer who you are absolutely sure will be a star of the future. That hope only comes to fruition on a small number of occasions: this concert was one of them. I'm willing to take bets that nineteen year-old Parisian cellist Edgar Moreau is going to have a glittering career ... His playing is muscular and he throws himself into the music ... and Moreau has bags of stage presence, with a flexible face which can turn from smile to grimace and back in an instant but always shows deep involvement with the music ... Even at such a young age, Moreau can completely win over an audience with his big sound and no-holds-barred style. I think he's going to be a winner."

Don't Let San Francisco Get Shell Shocked!
San Francisco's city government is considering partnering with Shell Energy of North America to inaugurate SF's so-called "clean power" program. But the Controller's report on the contract makes clear that San Franciscans would see their rates go up, city services go down, the local economy get worse and jobs would be lost.
This would Shell Shock San Francisco and its residents!
If the San Francisco Shell Shock contract goes through, the average home can expect to see a rate increase of 77% over their current PG&E electricity generation rates. The report also predicts a reduction in services and a loss of jobs. It would hurt the local economy by taking more than $13.2 million out of our economy through increased electricity costs.
Sign the petition today and stop San Francisco from getting Shell Shocked!
Please oppose the contract. In these tough economic times, the last thing the City should be considering is a plan that would lead to service reductions and job losses. Now is not the time to make it tougher for working families to get by. And Shell's values, especially their abysmal environmental record, aren't in sync with what most San Franciscans want to support.
Please oppose the contract and stop San Francisco from getting Shell Shocked!

Novelist Garret Freymann-Weyr is the author of many books for young readers. Garnering piles of praise from the likes of Kirkus, School Library Journal and Publisher's Weekly (not to mention the blogosphere) among other acclaimed book review fora, Ms. Freymann-Weyr seems to have a golden touch. Her latest, After the Moment, is yet another triumph – a heartfelt love story with family at the core. However, all this fanfare sadly does not make her books immune to the oft-feared book challenge and even the ban. Here's what Garret has to say about it all:
BookPeople: What book(s) of yours have been banned or challenged and what were the reasons given?
Garret Freymann-Weyr: I wrote a novel titled My Heartbeat, and it is why I am on a variety of banned and challenged lists. The book is about a girl who falls in love with a boy who may or may not have been her brother's boyfriend. Given the terrified and absurd reaction some people in this country have to any hint of "The Gay," I can only surmise that the novel is/was/will be banned or challenged because one of the characters is bisexual and another worries he is in love with a boy.
BP: What was your reaction when you first heard your book(s) were being challenged?
GFW: I laughed because I didn't know people still did this. And the laugh was on me because I had not thought I was writing a book in which sexual identity was an issue. I thought I was writing about loyalty, betrayal and how little we know those we love. By the time My Heartbeat was banned, the book had already gotten reviews talking about its thoughtful exploration of sexuality. And I would think, really? And then, to be targeted by homophobes made me think, really? all over again.
BP: How do you feel knowing there are people out there who don't want young readers to have access to your books?
GFW: Somewhere between baffled and bored. This sounds a little odd, so let me try and explain. I was brought up by two people who believed in reading's power to educate, thrill, transform and delight. I got yelled at all the time for not reading more (or better) books. My mother threatened to take Harriet The Spy away from me because I was reading it over and over. When I studied in the kitchen, I would hide Harriet in the flower pot so that she could never tell that I was reading it yet again. [NB: Harriet the Spy is a banned book!]
Therefore, the whole idea of using books to either "help" kids (via bibliotherapy) or to protect then (via censorship) simply has no place in the world in which I live. And I'm very uncomfortable being part of a world that treats books as things that offer either lessons or what some perceive as threats.
BP: Has having your work banned or challenged changed the way you write?
GFW: No.
BP: Sexuality, magic, expletives, race, and LGBT themes (among other topics) are often the reasons people challenge books. Why do you write about these topics, and why do you think it's important that they are included in young people's literature?
GFW: I write about what interests me. I always tell my writing students, "If you don't want to read it, don't write it." I think that the only important thing to include in young people's literature (in any literature) is good writing.
BP: Has your status as the author of banned books affected your career as a writer?
GFW: I don't think so.
BP: What do the terms "censorship" and "intellectual freedom" mean to you?
GFW: I think of them in very political terms and not at all as having anything to do with YA novels. After all, getting banned in a county like the United States is not that big of a deal. It could, I realize, become a big deal, if the people who ban books in their communities could do it everywhere. But for me, censorship is what happened in Iran this past summer after the fraudulent election. I felt the sting of censorship in the media during the lead up to the Iraq invasion far more than I do when I find out people want to keep My Heartbeat out of the library.
BP: What are your favorite banned books, and why?
GFW: I used to say that the only banned book I ever read was Lady Chatterley's Lover, and that it bored me to tears. But this time I went and looked up the books that were banned & challenged in 2008 and I started laughing at some of the books on the list. I was laughing because the books on the list contain nothing that could possibly offend a reasonable person.
Black Boy by Richard Wright?!? That's a book that lets you walk around in the shoes of a hungry, young boy who is black when being a black man in this country was a scary thing. Running With Scissors!?! That's a book you read when you're stuck in the airport, you don't ban that book! Of Mice and Men? Really? Most people have to read Of Mice and Men in high school. Banning it just means your child is denied a great reading experience.
I'm going to go with Of Mice and Men being my favorite, and it's probably because the writing is clean, simple, and yet full of haunting images.
BP: If you could say anything to Judy Blume, a literary legend and other of many banned books, what would you say? And what one question would you ask?
GFW: Hi, it's a pleasure to meet you, would you like to go get a cup of tea?
BP: What advice would you give a student (or parent, or concerned citizen) whose school or library is facing a book challenge?
GFW: What I always point out to librarians who are facing this problem in their school systems, is that people who ban books don't understand what they are afraid of. They think they are banning books because of profanity or sex or witchcraft. But what they are really afraid of is The Other. We all fear the unknown. If you can reassure the irate parents or clergy or whomever that the book in question is the SAFEST way possible to learn about what you most despise, then I think you can have a decent conversation.
BP: Since burning books is tragic, but bonfires can be fun, what should we burn instead?
GFW: Wood?
Thanks so much to Garret Freymann-Weyr for returning to the BookKids blog! In case you missed her last post, it's here: Fab YA Authors on their Favorite Queer-Themed Books: Part 3

Endowed chairs and professorships are among the most important resources the University has in assembling and maintaining a distinguished faculty. Such positions provide honor and recognition for the men and women who hold them, but they also provide a stable, dependable source of income for special teaching and research materials, library acquisitions, salary supplements, and travel assistance.
Rujirutana "Dr. A" Mandhachitara, associate professor of business teaching her
upper-level marketing class at Penn State New Kensington.
Competition for the best available teachers and researchers is even more acute than for the promising students, in part because Penn State must also compete with private industry and the public sector for potential faculty. Such competition is traditionally keen in fields where the University, private business, and government most closely interface-engineering, business, the sciences, and health care fields, to name only a few. In recent years, competition for the most talented teachers and researchers in the liberal arts had intensified as well. The additional support and recognition that accompanies an endowed chair or professorship often makes the difference in Penn State's ability to recruit a distinguished scholar, or retain that scholar in the face of lures form other institutions and potential employers.
You can contact the development office to discuss the many options available to donors who wish to support Penn State New Kensington. Kary Coleman, director of development, will assist you in creating a gift that meets your personal interests and matches the needs of the University. Call Kary at 724-334-6057.

Dean's Chair: Gift of $5,000,000
The endowment of a dean's chair represents a landmark commitment to Penn State, reflecting the extraordinary vision and commitment of the donor. A minimum commitment of $5 million will endow a dean's chair, ensuring that the most visible and important position in the college/campus will continue to be held by distinguished and talented leader-educators.The financial flexibility conferred by a dean's chair will allow a dean to move the college forward in ways not currently possible, such as:
- Developing innovative courses and teaching strategies
- Increasing research support for junior faculty members
- Attracting renowned visiting professors
- Supporting special student projects and programs
- Creating awards to recognize outstanding achievement by faculty and students
- Providing protection against "raids" of faculty members by other institutions—a growing concern in the in the increasingly competitive academic environment
Department Head's Chair: Gift of $3,000,000
A minimum commitment of $3 million will endow a department head's chair, providing the resources necessary not only to continue and further the scholar's contributions to teaching, research, and public service, but providing flexibility and ongoing support such as salary supplementation, graduate assistant stipends, secretarial assistance, travel expenses, etc. Endowing a department head's chair helps ensure that academic excellence will prevail in the chosen department, making an impact on faculty research and teaching developments, and graduate and undergraduate education.
Faculty Chair: Gift of $2,000,000
Usually awarded to the most senior scholar-teachers, a faculty chair endowment may be created with a minimum commitment of $2 million. A chair allows a professor to be not only appropriately rewarded financially for his or her achievements, it also provides the faculty member with the resources to continue important research and programs. Income from the endowment may also provide funds for graduate assistant salaries, secretarial assistance, course development, essential equipment, and scholarly travel.
The granting of a chair helps ensure that a department retains a professor who is esteemed as a mentor by other faculty members and students, who often directs important programs, and who contributes significantly to the University's mission, providing guidance, stability, and inspiration to colleagues and students alike.
Professorship: Gift of $1,000,000
The income from an endowed professorship, created with a minimum commitment of $1,000,000, supplements the professor's salary and offers resources necessary to pursue new lines of research or innovative teaching methods. This commitment means that he or she will be less vulnerable to "raids" from other universities, thus helping to ensure the stability of important programs, the furthering of exciting research, and effective mentoring of colleagues and students. Income from an endowment may also be directed to fund such needs as graduate assistant stipends, support staff, and travel expenses.
Career Development Professorship: Gift of $500,000
Critical for providing financial support to and encouraging the development of young faculty, the Career Development Professorship is new at Penn State. A gift of $500,000 or more creates this professorship which may be awarded to a full-time Penn State professor at the beginning of his or her career or to a visiting faculty member for a three-year period. An excellent tool for recruiting the most promising faculty, the career development professorship supplements departmental support of outstanding young University faculty. The career development professorship offers early recognition for outstanding accomplishments and provides income for salary supplementation, research expenses, education and travel expenses, graduate assistants' salaries, and support services for the holder or the holder's program. In addition, because it is awarded for a designated period, this professorship revitalizes the faculty of colleges and campuses by allowing deans and campus executive officers the opportunity to continually recruit rising academic stars.

Big Agnes Fish Hawk 30°
Large and warm, and I'll never roll off my sleeping pad again! Purchased the long-length version of this bag from Campsaver for $249.95 before various discounts. What drew me to this bag is the fact that it's very, very roomy. I'm 6'3" / 240# and wear a size 50 suit jacket, so I have always had trouble finding a bag with the shoulder room to let me move or switch sides, etc. The Fish Hawk gives me all the room I need and more. Even with all of this space, the bag retains its packability admirably. Full review
Mountain Hardwear Men's Phantom 32°
It's a good bag and well made, yet a bit skinny and hood opening is too small. My Likes Bought the long model of the bag for a cross-country bicycling trip. It did that job well since it was summer and I never really needed to zip up all the way. It comes with a nice storage sack and a nice stuff sack. It packs down small and light and worked great in panniers. It is also a joy to have for backpacking due to its size and weight. It was nice to find something this small and light with still a respectable… Full review
The North Face Men's Cat's Meow
A solid synthetic bag that will treat you well in three seasons. I've always been intrigued by the Cat's Meow. It seems as though it has been a solid seller for North Face so I thought it must have a decent cost/performance ratio. After having slept in it on a number of occasions now, I would say that It's a pretty decent bag. Many of the reviews on Trailspace are divided on the bag. It seems as though the older model gets a better review than the newer model. I have the older model. Warmth:… Full review
REI Men's Lumen +25
This is a great wet weather alternative to a down bag. It's very warm, the price is right, the weight is acceptable for a synthetic bag of this temp rating (sub 3 lbs), and the feature set is perfect-—not too many features, but ones that are useful. I highly recommend this bag for anyone that wants the warmth and packability of down, combined with the wet weather security of synthetic. *Reviewer note: I have the "regular" and "long" versions of this bag. This review is of the "regular" version… Full review
Marmot Mountain Works 15° Sleeping Bag
Gives you a snapshot into why Marmot eventually became a big box company. Lightweight, compact, durable, even by today's standards and this bag was made in the mid 80's! I bought this bag from a more seasoned explorer who has since traded in her backpack for a key to a cabin. She said that she purchased it at our local co-op (Midwest Mountaineering) in the mid '80s and paid top buck for it. She told me it was $300 at the time. Apparently, in this era, there was a catalog or floor model and then… Full review
Sierra Designs Women's Backcountry Bed 800 3-Season
This has become my ultimate fave bag for backpacking ever!! BONUS: as a side sleeper it rocks as there is a sleeve to insert your pad so the bed stays put when you don't! This has become my ultimate fave bag for backpacking ever. I've tried all iterations of sleep systems known so I say this with some authority. I've used this bag through two backpacking seasons so far, from spring to fall, with the lowest temps experienced being 30 degrees and the wettest night was during a full on mountain thunderstorm… Full review
Ozark Trail Cocoon 200
Great bag! Very durable if used for large dogs and light enough for them to carry! I do a lot of winter backpacking and needed a bag for my big, but short haired, canine companion. I picked this up at Walmart one day and have had it for two years it has withstood 4 continuous months of winter backpacking the AT. This involved a big dog crawling in an out of it every night for a third of a year and never once tearing it with his claws. I imagine it would hold up for a while with only a person using… Full review
Ozark Trail Cocoon 200
Don't even think this bag is available anymore.. Got the last two at our Wally World in Slidell, La. Used four nights at 11,000 ft. at Snowmass Mtn., Colo. Temps from low 40s up. No problems. Warm, comfy light. I'm 6 ft., 215 lbs., little snug but slept. If I felt tight, I'd unzip the bottom zipper by my ankles...unzip it about a foot and a half...allowed one leg to flex out. NICE! Stuffed my little pillow in the hood section under my neck. Cozy. Packs very small. Big zips, big clips, small price. Full review
Teton Sports Tracker +5°F
This is a great, comfortable bag. I have not used it in temps down to the 5 degree rating, but have found it to be a durable, easily packed, and comfortable bag for car camping and canoe camping, in nighttime temperatures from 30-50 degrees. It has some nice features, that make it a fine sleeping bag. I highly recommend this sleeping bag. I must disclose, I have not used this bag in its full, zipped up, mummy style mode, except for a trial. It is a very warm bag, and with our overnight camping trips… Full review

I'm a HUGE fan of Aston Martins and this polish just reminds me of all those awesome Le Mans photos floating around the internet. It's just one more way to be closer to my dream car (and James Bond ;-) At $14, it's pretty pricey but if you love the car or the shade as much as I do, its a steal. British Racing Green did chip a little but it was more of a top coat problem than the polish's fault.

By MARVIN MUTZPrice
The gas stations are offering a new service in Carbon County. But it is not a free service like when they used to wash your windows and check your oil. Every time you pull up to their pumps, they take you to the cleaners.
When gas prices go down, Utah is the last state to reduce them and Carbon and Emery counties are way behind the rest of the state. Our prices are usually five to 10 cents higher than the highest prices in Spanish Fork, Provo and Orem.
When the prices started going down, it was between a penny and three cents each time. A couple of weeks ago they dropped 10 cents from $3.89 to $3.79. Man we were all doing a happy dance.
However, I went to Bountiful last weekend and from Spanish Fork to Orem the highest prices were 30 cents lower than Price's lowest prices (despite the 10 cent a gallon reduction).
On my way home, I stopped at Sam's Club to gas up for $3.44 per gallon, which was 35 cents below the lowest prices in Price.
Yep, the new service they provide is not free. It costs 30 to 35 cents per gallon to be taken to the cleaners.

On the one hand, Julianne Moore is a beautiful woman who would look good in anything. Well, almost anything. On the other, this photo of her for Talbots is pretty (everything shot by Mert Alas and Marcus Piggott is pretty), but the dress she's wearing in it has some members of the Styleite staff feeling less than inspired to run to the nearest Talbots store and start laying a smack down on the recession. It is cool that the campaign uses Moore's celebrity in a really subtle way, and she's not half as Photoshopped here as she was in those Bulgari ads. We don't know what to think. Is the ad pretty, or just pretty boring?

Welcome to Rezwana Patterson AtlasPROfilax
The AtlasPROfilax treatment is a unique non-medical method which promotes health and self-healing.
Did you know that the first cervical vertebra – the atlas – is misaligned in most humans? The atlas is said to be misaligned when the convex bony formations (occipital condyles) on the sides of the hole in the base of the skull (foramen magnum) do not properly fit into the convex receptacles on the top of the atlas (superior articular facets).
The atlas supports the skull but also facilitates the suspension and balance of the spine, so a misaligned atlas can lead to a variety of physical and psychological problems; for example, migraine headaches, back and neck pain, lumbago, herniated discs, scoliosis, jammed spinal nerves, pain in the hip joints and maladies of the knee.
We can now relocate the atlas using the AtlasPROfilax method. This is a unique non-medicinal technique, developed in the mid '90s, to safely and permanently correct a misaligned atlas with just one application. Rezwana, our specialist AtlasProf, has been trained and certified by the Atlas Academy in Switzerland.
It is amazing to be able to have full rotation of my neck after years of neck and shoulder injuries and pain. The relief was immediate and my posture has improved in that I now can stand and walk straight with both legs the same length!
Anita, June 2011

Brighten the Eyes with Eyelid Surgery
Eyelids are one of the first things that prompt patients to seek the advice of a plastic surgeon. Women may begin to have difficulty evenly applying make-up to the upper lid, or men may notice the excess skin making them look "tired" despite a full nights rest. Eyelid lift surgery or blepharoplasty is designed to treat the excess skin and often bulging fat around the aging eye. Frequently, both women and many men who suffer from these issues visit the office looking for a surgical solution to this problem. Contact our San Diego office to schedule an eyelid surgery consultation.
Eyelid Lift Candidates
Patients who suffer from excess skin, lower eyelid "bags" or even dark circles are also candidates for blepharoplasty surgery. As we age, your skin will lose some if its elasticity or "spring," which combined with acquired environmental or sun damage, leads to the gradual development of redundant skin in both the upper and lower eyelids. The tissue that keeps the orbital fat in place, called the septum, will also weaken with time. This acts like a sail that has had the rope let out leading to a conspicuous bulge of both the upper and lower orbital fat pads. Thus, patients who suffer from any combination of these issues are good candidates for cosmetic eyelid surgery. Fortunately, eyelid skin tends to heal better than almost anywhere on the body, and this combined with placing incisions in natural skin folds makes a well-healed incision nearly barely visible to the naked eye.
Eyelid Surgery
1 – 2 hours
General anesthesia
Side Effects:
Temporary swelling, bruising, and some pain
Pain, bleeding, infection, rare damage to nerves, incomplete improvement
Back to work with makeup: 1 – 2 weeks
More strenuous activity: 2 – 3 weeks
1 – 2 months for swelling to completely resolve
Duration of Results:
About 5 – 10 years depending on which technique is used
Blepharoplasty Surgery
Upper eyelid surgery alone can frequently be performed under local anesthetic without the need for IV sedation or a general anesthetic. This is a procedure much like going to the dentist office, and when supplemented with an oral sedative, patients tend to tolerate the surgery well without any problem. Lower eyelid surgery is more commonly done under a light general anesthetic, as it is a procedure better tolerated the procedure when the patient is asleep.
The procedure is performed on an outpatient basis and can last from one to two hours. The procedure involves the removal of excess skin, fat and often tightening of the septum and muscles that have progressively relaxed over time. Incisions are carefully placed in natural creases so that the well-healed scar mimics natural folds or wrinkles in the patients skin. Lower eyelid incisions are placed immediately below the lash line so that the lower lashes act to conceal any evidence of a scar. Our eyelid surgery patients are able to see immediately following the procedure aside from short lived blurry vision secondary to a protective ointment placed in the eye.
In certain cases where the patient's primary issue is bulging fat alone, there is a procedure that can successfully address this without any external scarring whatsoever. This is termed a "transconjunctival blepharoplasty" and only removes excess fatty tissue in the lower lids through incisions carefully placed inside the eyelid.
Finally, the upper eyelid also allows us access to the frown muscles known as the corrugators. Through a "scar-less" approach we can weaken and remove overactive muscles that contribute to the medial brow frown lines.
Eyelid Surgery Recovery
Eyelid lift or blepharoplasty surgery recovery is relatively pain free and easily managed with oral pain medication. Our eyelid surgery patients most commonly report eye irritation, but not necessarily pain. We anticipate swelling and mild bruising with this surgery that will last for approximately one week. We ask patients to regularly use lubricating eye drops and place a cold compress over the area for the first 72 hours. Sutures are normally removed after five to seven days, and lower eyelid sutures often dissolve on their own. There is some social downtime with this surgery as it can be difficult to hide this area with make-up or sunglasses.
Eyelid Lift Results
Within one to two weeks, patients begin to notice a difference in their appearance with a brighter, more youthful look around the eye. As the swelling resolves, the eyes take on an even more refined appearance with the gradual surgical recovery. Eyelid surgery should result in many years of improvement, serving to brighten the patients' appearance and allow their eyes to better reflect their renewed self confidence and youthful spirit. Scarring is discreet, and patients can take steps to reduce the appearance of scarring after eyelid surgery.
Eyelid Surgery Consultations
Dr. Vincent Marin is a board certified plastic surgeon well qualified to perform your upper and lower eyelid lift surgery. Contact our office if you are interested in an eyelid surgery consultation.
