Doctor of Health Sciences Curriculum Overview
The Global Health Certificate curriculum consists of the three Certificate courses plus one course from either the Leadership and Organizational Behavior Certificate or Fundamentals of Education Certificate classes.
Global Health Certificate
Global Health Issues+
This Global Health Certificate course provides an introduction to important global health issues, including determinants of health, key areas of disease burden, and the role that new health technologies can play in solving these problems. The goal of the course is to expand students' understanding of the impact of infectious and chronic diseases on the world's population with particular attention paid to the health status of women, children, and the poor. Students will examine case studies of successful global health interventions to understand features of successful programs.
Globalization and World Politics+
This Global Health Certificate course introduces the theoretical and practical issues associated with the radical global processes that are now affecting human life locally and globally. The course emphasizes the political-economic, cultural, institutional, technological, and ecological implications of globalization and allows students to evaluate whether these processes pose opportunities or challenges to individuals, societies, and the global community.
Global Health Ethics+
This Global Health Certificate course provides an introduction to the principles and theory of ethics as applied to global health. The course will examine some of the primary theories and principles in healthcare ethics including virtue, deontology, utilitarian, autonomy, justice, beneficence, and nonmaleficence. The course will explore many prominent global health issues and exemplify how greater knowledge and understanding of global ethics is vital to effective and sound decision-making. Topics that will be discussed in the course include ethical issues related to: pandemic preparedness, end of life, human organ transplantation, clinical research in developing countries, human rights, resource allocation, and the effects of globalization on world health.
Leadership and Organizational Behavior Certificate
Trends and Issues in Leadership+
This course examines the historical and current theoretical models of leadership and will address the contemporary thought on leadership, the leader's role, and explore applications of that role. Topics will include the current context for leadership and personal leadership styles in the healthcare arena. Students will examine moral frameworks for leadership and decision-making as well as leadership domains and the synthesis of leadership development. Case studies will explore leadership in practice in both the public and private sectors as it relates to healthcare management.
Health Policy Development and Analysis+
This course provides an in-depth discussion of the key political and administrative decision-making processes of the American health system. Particular emphasis is placed on the health policy development process. The goal of the course is to expand knowledge on the definition of public policy, health policy development process, and funding solutions to complete policy issues. Students will examine the variety of social, economic, and political influences on health policy making and will discover that there are a variety of "policy instruments" available to decision makers to solve policy problems at the policy formulation stage.
Organizational Behavior+
This course examines how the personal characteristics of organizational members influence the effectiveness and productivity of organizations and the job satisfaction of its members. It is believed that organizations are comprised of three levels: the individual, the group or department, and the organization itself. This course will focus on the problems and challenges leaders face in dealing with the individual and the small groups in the organization. Special attention will be given to the role of teams in organizations, the stages of team development, and actions that can support the development of effective teams. The realities of interpersonal processes are considered through examination of the roles of power, politics, and conflict in organizations.

For today's Hulu Days of Summer addition, we picked a series that features a butt-kicking samurai who's hell-bent on revenge. Afro Samurai — and its sequel, Afro Samurai Resurrection — features the voice of Samuel L. Jackson as our hero and a soundtrack composed by none other than the Wu-Tang Clan's RZA. To mark the premiere of the series on Hulu, we spoke to The RZA earlier this week. Find out what inspires this Grammy-winning artist these days — and what's he's listening to. — Rebecca Harper (), Editor
You've written and produced music for everything from Ghost Dog and Kill Bill to Blade: Trinity and Soul Plane. How was creating music for Afro Samurai different?
The RZA: You know, this was right up my alley. Those other projects were less in my full control. There's always some back and forth, but I had maybe 75 percent freedom working with Tarantino on Kill Bill. Here, I had 90 percent freedom. But you know, Tarantino and I, we had similar taste, so if I brought in 10 things, he brought five of the same things. But it was definitely tougher in trying to please him because he had his own vision for it, himself.
With Afro Samurai, they had a vision, but they also allowed the music to lead the vision. What I mean by that is, when I worked on Afro Samurai, we started with what is known as the animatics, and I would compose to the animatics, and then they would go on and do some of their drawing and action to the music.
We noticed that you've written a lot of soundtracks to projects that are based on a common theme — redemption through revenge. Is there a reason why you're drawn to subjects like this?
Well, I grew up watching a lot of films with that same theme, whether it's a Spaghetti Western or martial arts films. Those were my big creative enthusiasms. So it's only natural that I would fall into that chamber. At the same time, I'm open to all kinds of films. You know, Barber Shop and Soul Plane were comedies. Right now, I'm working on something that's like a love story/drama with my buddy Nemo, which is totally different, so I'm just doing like a Mozart reinterpretation. I think people know me for a certain thing, and those are the kind of people that reach out to me first. In the same vein, I often take those kinds of jobs, because they're right up my alley. As a creative force, I like to spend time on other things and do other things. I don't want to be pigeonholed or typecast as only a revenge-action composer. In fact, when we did Babylon A.D., which is sci-fi, I was kind of happy that was a different approach for me, too, because it wasn't revenge. It was sci-fi, it was futuristic. It gave me a chance to kind of explore a different sound, as well.
Are you a fan of anime yourself? Do you watch much of it?
Yeah, I'm a big fan, actually. I love anime. To me, some of the best creativity is through anime, especially 10 to 12 years ago, before Hollywood was able to master the CGI, how they have it now. Anime was the only place you could really get these wild fight sequences or wild imagination going, only while watching those films. You watch animation like Ghost in the Shell, or go back even farther to ones like Akira or Ninja Scroll. That kind of action couldn't be duplicated through live-action at the time. Even Transformers, the old animated movie, that was the only way you were going to get a movie about Transformers. But now that Hollywood has caught up to the creativity, we can finally get those live-action movies like [the most recent]Transformers and The Last Airbender coming out now, and all these other great movies like X-Men, Wolverine. Now I feel like I'm watching anime, but it's a real live action.
You've been working on solo projects for a while now. Can we expect anything from the Wu-Tang in the future?
Wu Tang is always unpredictable, so you never know. We definitely have a tour this summer, where we'll all be in the same place. Usually that leads on to something else, so we'll see where it leads to this time.
Where do you find your inspiration?
I'm inspired through many things, whether it's through life itself, through films, reading books, or just by taking a walk. Sometimes I get my best inspiration just through taking long walks. A lot of ideas pop into my head, and I just try to turn those ideas into reality.
Some of the tracks on the Afro Samurai soundtrack are credited to Bobby Digital, and some to The RZA. What determines which song gets which credit?
I think the context of my lyrics. I strive to make the RZA lyrics to be more intuitive, more inspirational for the listener as well as having messages of education and spirituality behind it. Whereas with Bobby Digital, it's just a freefall for all. Just MCing and lyricism, just talking a lot of, you know, a lot of braggadocious shit, having fun.
What are you listening to these days?
Depending on the day you catch me, from listening to my buddy John Frusciante's album The Empyrean — which has been my favorite album for the last year and change, actually. But I go back and forth, listening to new hip-hop from new artists, you know, from Kid Cudi to Drake and all. I listen to keep up to speed with what's going on out there. But I also continue to listen to my classic music, the old '60s and '70s hits and things like that. Different days, different ways. My CD player's always changing.
What are you working on now?
Right now, I'm mostly working on my film, The Man with the Iron Fist. That's where most of my creativity is going to. On a music level, I have a joint sound right now with the GZA called Liquid Swords Part Two. That's my music endeavor, but The Man with the Iron Fist is where I'm focusing most of my creativity.
What's that you're listening to in the background?
Oh, it's this song "Hysteria," I know you've heard of "Hysteria," the old rock 'n roll song [from Def Leppard]. We did a Nike commercial last week and they asked me to take a shot at remixing that song, so we're taking a shot at it.
Really? Some of us have been enjoying an '80s hair band revival here at Hulu.
OK, I kind of had that as well, about six months ago. I was hanging with my buddy Shavo [Odadjian] from System of a Down, and he's always playing me like a lot of metal and rock that I've missed because I'm so much into hip-hop. He gave me an iPod with 30,000 songs on it. That was last year's birthday gift. And I just started getting into it, more and more, month by month. So I know what you mean, by going back to the '80s and feeling Ted Nugent and these guys, things that I think I skipped over. I'm a guitar player now, so I'm listening to these things to learn more about the guitar and, you know, to find out how to include it in my own music.
What do you think about music's shift to digital formats, and music sharing sites?
I think it has a plus and negative, of course. I've been saying it for years, that it has a positive and negative. The negative is starting to overtake the positive now for me. In the beginning, you want the music to be heard and you want kids to enjoy music, because music is to be heard. We don't make it for ourselves. But when it starts jeopardizing the careers and the financial income of the artists, to where some artists have to now spend less time doing music because they have to get jobs to pay their bills. Now the fans have actually destroyed their own idols. When you're not supporting the music system or the music industry, you're not supporting the artists. Now record deals that went from being — let's say the average record deal could have been a $200,000 deal for a guy. That's pretty substantial amount for a guy to live on and have a normal life and make music for six hours a day. But now record deals are down to $50,000 now, or you can't even get a deal. So then the artists can't spend six or seven hours making music — they've got to get a job or maybe get some gigs, things like that.
So the fans don't realize that they destroyed the music industry by free downloads. What makes it ironic is that, to me, it's not like the fans won't spend the money. They're going to buy iPhones and iPads, we're spending $300 to $400 and then they're getting free music for it. The music is only $10. We need to take a closer look at it and realize that we're buying these gadgets, but these gadgets are useless without music. So instead of buying a regular $15 CD player or Walkman, you're paying $200, $300 for an iPod, but you still don't have any music. You're making Apple grow bigger — and obviously we like Apple because we use Apple computers to make music — but we're taking away from the musicians. We need to find a way to put money back into the pockets of the musicians so they can continue to make music and continue inspiring us.

Posted on 03/01/2005 11:31:24 AM PST by DoctorZIn
Top News Story
Bush considers Iran policy shiftJohn Shovelan
ELEANOR HALL: Now to another key player in the Middle East Iran, and United States President George W. Bush looks like taking the advice of European leaders and shifting his policy toward the Islamic theocracy.
Last week after the President returned from Europe senior White House officials began considering a policy of offering incentives for Iran to give up its alleged nuclear weapons program.
From Washington, John Shovelan reports.
JOHN SHOVELAN: President Bush went to Europe hoping to convince his allies that their approach to Iran was too much carrot and not enough stick.
But it was the Europeans who proved persuasive. And the Bush administration now seems set to change it's Iran policy and join with the Europeans in offering Iran incentives to give up their pursuit of nuclear weapons.
A final decision hasn't been made yet, but since the President's return to Washington the direction of US policy has changed.
The White House spokesman Scott McClellan says the President was forced to consider a policy shift after the Europeans showed they were committed to ensuring Iran doesn't become a nuclear power.
SCOTT MCCLELLAN: We all have a shared goal of making sure Iran does not acquire a nuclear weapon. That's something we all share, we're all speaking with the same voice. Iran needs to abide by its international obligations. They need to come clean, and they need to end their pursuit of nuclear weapons.
JOHN SHOVELAN: The administration now believes it's more appropriate to offer carrots first, and if Iran fails to meet its obligations the stick would be more effective later.
The shift is significant, for the administration all along has opposed any incentives, refusing to reward Iran for failing to meet its obligations under the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty.
SCOTT MCCLELLAN: What we are doing is continuing to talk with our European friends about the best way forward for addressing this issue and accomplishing our shared goal.
JOHN SHOVELAN: French President Jacques Chirac and German Chancellor Gerhardt Schroeder in particular pressed President Bush last week on the need for the US to get behind the European-led effort.
A formal decision on the policy shift isn't expected until a meeting this Friday of the National Security Cabinet in which Vice President Dick Cheney will participate by videophone.
White House officials are already working on exactly what incentives could be offered to Iran.
SCOTT MCCLELLAN: The President is considering ideas that were discussed last week in Europe for moving forward on our efforts to get Iran to end its pursuit of nuclear weapons and abandon its nuclear weapons ambitions.
JOHN SHOVELAN: Bush administration officials also say the policy shift reflects the serious US effort at healing the transatlantic rift, and shows that it extends to substance.

Looks like a flip flop.
U.N. Says Iran Rejected Inspection of Military Base
VIENNA (Reuters) - Iran rejected a request by U.N. nuclear inspectors to return to its Parchin military base, where Washington suspects Iran might have conducted tests linked to nuclear bomb-making, the U.N. atomic watchdog said Tuesday.
Several months after their initial requests, Iran permitted U.N. inspectors to visit Parchin in January. During this visit, inspectors told Iranian officials they would like to visit an area not covered in that inspection, the agency said.
Deputy chief of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), Pierre Goldschmidt, quoted Iran's response in a speech to the agency's board as saying: "The expectation of the (IAEA) in visiting specified ... points in Parchin Complex are fulfilled and thus there is no justification for an additional visit."
Iran is not required to allow the IAEA into sites like Parchin, where this is no clear sign of nuclear activities. But, Western diplomats on the IAEA board said permitting agency inspections at such sites was crucial to building confidence that Tehran's nuclear plans are peaceful.
Iran says its nuclear intentions are limited to the generation of electricity, but Washington accuses it of using its nuclear program as a cover to build an atomic bomb.
Goldschmidt also said a December visit to a uranium conversion plant at Isfahan had "revealed extensive underground excavation activities which Iran had failed to report in a timely manner to the agency as required."
This excavation was the digging of a tunnel under the Isfahan plant, which Iran has said could be used to store equipment to protect it in case of U.S. or Israeli attack.
Negotiations with mullahs are doomed to failure. We need strike Iran's nuclear facilities now.

VERGENNES — About four dozen state, local and nonprofit officials on Monday morning joined Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) on Armory Lane for the groundbreaking ceremony of a long-awaited and — according to all — much needed senior housing and meeting center.
The $5.8 million, 25,000-square-foot building next to American Legion Post 14 and the Shaw's Supermarket plaza will include a library and meeting and dining rooms. It will also host local senior lunches and provide a home for the area's Meals on Wheels program.

One of the most aggressive police searches yet of the home where a Kansas City infant went missing more than two weeks ago drew officers Wednesday armed with shovels, rakes and other tools who hauled off bags that appeared to be full of potential evidence.
Police refused to say what they found inside or outside the home belonging to Jeremy Irwin and Deborah Bradley, who say an intruder snatched their baby daughter, Lisa, from her crib in the middle of the night as the mother and two other boys slept.
From shortly after sunrise through late afternoon, FBI agents and police officers joined in the search that began after a judge issued a warrant that prevented the parents from returning to the house while it was under way.
Officers headed to the back of the home with shovels, rakes and a ladder and could be seen digging behind a shed in the yard. Out front, investigators left the house carrying brown paper bags and clear plastic bags and took them to vehicles parked outside.
Police also brought in a bomb and arson truck to assist the search, though spokesman Capt. Steve Young said there were no indications of explosives in the house. Some bomb detection devices use X-ray technology to scan solid objects to reveal items concealed within. An AP reporter saw investigators carrying at least a dozen thin, black rectangular sheets away from the home during the afternoon.
Lisa Irwin was 10 months old on Oct. 4 when her parents reported her missing. Her father, an electrician, said he returned home from a late shift to discover the lights on, a window tampered with, the front door unlocked and Lisa gone. Bradley and Lisa's two older brothers had been asleep elsewhere in the house. Bradley has admitted she drank heavily that night and may have blacked out.
Police, FBI agents, officers from area law enforcement agencies and the Missouri National Guard already have searched the family's home, neighborhood, nearby wooded areas, a landfill and abandoned homes. Police have refused to discuss any evidence gathered in the searches, saying only that they remain without a suspect.
There was no indication the family has tried to block investigators' access to their home, which already has been scoured by FBI agents with dogs.
The parents' attorney, Joe Tacopina, said Wednesday that he welcomed the search, but "we want this to be done in good faith, not to match some predetermined conclusion."
Earlier Wednesday, Tacopina questioned the need for a warrant.
"They can go in and out any time," he said of police. "They have had unfettered access because we want answers."
FBI spokeswoman Bridget Patton said Wednesday's search was not based on any sort of tip. Authorities restricted media access, Patton said, because agents were using a procedure involving dogs that they didn't want to be recorded. She declined to elaborate.
Young said all previous searches of the house have been conducted with the family's consent. Wednesday's warrant prevents anyone except those involved in the investigation from entering, meaning family members _ who have returned home from time to time to collect clothes and other belongings _ may not go back inside until the search is over. It wasn't immediately clear whether the search would resume Thursday.
The Federal Aviation Administration established a no-fly zone over the search area effective until 5 p.m., agency spokesman Tony Molinaro said. He characterized the zone as a safety precaution and said it had been requested by law enforcement. Similar restrictions were introduced during a search of the area Tuesday.
Much attention has focused on a rash of recent TV interviews the parents have given in which Bradley admitted she had consumed several glasses of wine the night that Lisa disappeared. She also told NBC that she did not see the baby after putting her to bed at about 6:40 p.m. _ roughly four hours earlier than the time she originally gave police. She didn't explain the difference.
Tacopina has said Bradley's candid words indicate the parents have nothing to hide.
Bradley has said she expects to be arrested in her baby's disappearance.

So funny- I did the 3rd ascent of HTH and it seemed fine- Trust me I was barely 9+ leader. This may lead to the ""popular" thread which is BS
We're going around in circles. We already have established that a route can be deemed "popular" because it gets done a lot (i.e. Parking Lot wall routes at Rumney) or because it is aspired to be done a lot but is typically a once in a life time thing. Hopefully this crowd goes by the mostly by the second criteria and doesn't advocate bolting things into submission so they fall into the first category.
A route is not "popular" because it is a "once in a life time thing". That, my friend, is a "rarity".
I'm not sure "dumbed down" is really a good term to use for adequately protecting routes when using fixed gear. One could readily make the argument that to bolt a route and leave huge dangerous fall potential is an act of "dumbness".

Pat Buchanan -- Equality: American IdolPAT BUCHANAN
July 06. 2013 1:05AM
"THEY THAT can give up essential liberty to purchase a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety."
Ben Franklin is much quoted in today's debate on the trade-off between freedom and security, as we learn about the National Security Agency's easy access to our phone records and emails.
Yet we Americans have often sacrificed liberty for safety.
The greater antagonist of liberty is not the quest for security, but our insatiable demand and inexorable drive for equality - not equality of rights but equality of results.
To equalize incomes, the government confiscates 40 percent of the earnings of the most successful Americans and uses that wealth to subsidize the food, health care, housing and income of that half of the nation that pays no income taxes.
A steeply progressive income tax was originally advanced by that great egalitarian Karl Marx.
The federal estate tax is 40 percent for the wealthy. Some states tack on 16 percent. Individuals may spend entire lives acquiring wealth for their progeny. And governments, in the name of equality, will seize half of it on their deaths. Socialism, said Winston Churchill, is the philosophy of envy and gospel of greed.
To guarantee equal pay for equal work, the government has created agencies to monitor the payrolls of every business, agencies empowered to identify, expose and punish employers who might dare to use their economic freedom to reward some workers more than others.
Affirmative action and quotas have been imposed on colleges and universities, stripping those institutions of freedom of choice, to advance a greater racial, ethnic and gender equality among students and faculties than a free and fair competition might produce.
Contract set-asides have been established on which no white male may bid. To make minorities and women more equal, we make others less free.
Freedom of assembly, which produced men's and women's clubs and colleges, has been under assault for decades. Only a handful of men's colleges survive. Even Augusta National Golf Club was forced to conform to the dictates of diversity and equality.
To achieve greater equality in the test scores of Asian, white, Hispanic and black children, enormous sums have been extracted from taxpayers and shoveled into an educational establishment with little to show for it in 50 years. Yet the clamor rises for more billions to achieve this modern form of alchemy.
In a decades-long intrusion on freedom that ignited a social rebellion, children were bused out of their neighborhoods across cities to troubled schools to achieve a "racial balance."
"A man's home is his castle," was a concept we inherited from English law and proudly adopted as our own. No more. A man's right to sell or rent his home is restricted by open housing laws.
Owners of hotels, motels, taverns and restaurants can lose their licenses if they conduct their businesses according to personal biases and beliefs.
In the land of the free, such freedom is now illegal.
"If we are truly created equal, then surely the love we commit to one another must be equal, as well," said Obama in his second inaugural. Thus, homosexual unions will soon have to be treated equally with traditional marriage, though "marriage equality" contradicts Christian teaching.
Our Union was "founded on the principles of liberty and equality," said Obama. But how could that be when the word "equality" does not appear in the Constitution, the Bill of Rights or the Federalist Papers?
In 1776, Thomas Jefferson wrote that all men are created equal in their God-given rights to life and liberty. Does anyone think that Jefferson, who kept slaves all his life, excoriated Indians in that same Declaration of Independence and spoke of a "natural aristocracy" that Providence had wisely provided to govern us, believed all men and all women were equal in any other way?
In "The Lessons of History," Will and Ariel Durant wrote: "Leave men free and their natural inequalities will multiply almost geometrically, as in England and America in the 19th-century under laissez-faire. To check the growth of inequality, liberty must be sacrificed, as in Russia after 1917."Freedom and equality are sworn and everlasting enemies, and when one prevails the other dies."As the Party of Equality triumphs, the Party of Freedom expires.
Patrick J. Buchanan is the author of "Suicide of a Superpower: Will America Survive to 2025?"

Clarkson University Trustees to Dedicate Technology Advancement Center Oct. 16
[A photograph for media use is available at http://www.clarkson.edu/news/photos/tac-10-7-2008. jpg]
Clarkson University's Board of Trustees will dedicate the school's new Technology Advancement Center on Thursday, October 16, at 3 p.m. on Clarkson's hill campus. The public is invited to attend. A social gathering and facility tours will follow the dedication.
Keynote speaker Empire State Development Upstate President Dennis M. Mullen will join New York State Foundation for Science, Technology & Innovation (NYSTAR) Executive Director Edward Reinfurt, Trustee Chair Everett G. Foster and President Tony Collins at the podium, along with Clarkson Trustees, faculty, staff and students, and members of New York's public and private sector for a ribbon-cutting ceremony and dedication.
Serving in his first month as Upstate President of ESD, Mullen has selected Potsdam as one of his first destinations to assess what is being done by university/industry partnerships to promote economic growth. Based in Rochester, he oversees all Upstate ESD offices and projects. Prior to being appointed to this position by Gov. David Paterson, Mullen was president and CEO of the Greater Rochester Enterprise, Inc.
The16,000-square-foot Technology Advancement Center (TAC) connects the main library and computing space with the largest academic teaching building, providing critical laboratory and collaboration space for accelerating the development of research, especially in the fields of renewable energy and clean manufacturing technology.
TAC was constructed with a $5 million grant from Empire State Development (ESD), the State of New York's economic development leader and a development partner with the University on its the Downtown Campus technology and business incubator project. Empire State Development is New York's chief economic development agency, encompassing business, workforce and community development.
The partnership with ESD is complemented by Clarkson's longstanding relationship with the New York State Foundation for Science, Technology and Innovation (NYSTAR), which designated Clarkson's Center for Advanced Materials Processing (CAMP) a NYSTAR Center for Advanced Technology (CAT) in 1988 and renewed in June 2008 its third decade of funding. NYSTAR Executive Director Ed Reinfurt will offer remarks regarding the future of the Clarkson CAT.
Among the nation's leading small research universities, Clarkson derives strength from the caliber of partnerships its faculty and staff develop with members of the public and private sector on a variety of science, engineering and technology projects. These partnerships create new enterprises in the North Country, which drive the growth of high-quality jobs and strengthen existing manufacturing firms throughout the state, especially those with critical requirements for advanced materials processing.
Clarkson University launches leaders into the global economy. One in six alumni already leads as a CEO, VP or equivalent senior executive of a company. Located just outside the Adirondack Park in Potsdam, N.Y., Clarkson is a nationally recognized research university for undergraduates with select graduate programs in signature areas of academic excellence directed toward the world's pressing issues. Through 50 rigorous programs of study in engineering, business, arts, sciences and health sciences, the entire learning-living community spans boundaries across disciplines, nations and cultures to build powers of observation, challenge the status quo, and connect discovery and engineering innovation with enterprise.

Doctor testifies in Roy trial that victim was 'near death'By LARISSA MULKERN
Special to the Union Leader
January 29. 2013 10:47PM
OSSIPEE - Medical experts in pediatrics and child trauma testified on Tuesday that the most seriously injured young boy in the State v. Justin Roy case was near death the morning he was flown to Maine Medical Center from Memorial Hospital in North Conway.
"He was dying," testified Dr. Baird Mallory, the head of surgery of the Barbara Bush Children's Hospital at the Maine Medical Center. He operated on Strider Downs-Skidgel, who was 2½ years old at the time. Dr. Mallory said the boy's temperature was only a degree higher than that required to sustain life, and the pH level in his blood was so low it was at a level that would "kill most adults."
Justin Roy, 34, of Albany, is charged with multiple felony counts that allege he caused first- and second-degree injuries to Strider, who lived with his mother, Heather Downs, and his two brothers, Zander, now 8, and Gallagher, now 2, with Roy in a mobile home at Golden Oaks park in Albany.
Roy also faces two counts of assault alleging he bruised Zander by sitting on his legs, one count of simple assault for allegedly pushing Heather Downs away from the shed where he held Strider, and one count of simple assault alleging that he squirted the contents of a baby bottle on 11-month-old Gallagher.
Mallory, the chief surgeon for the Barbara Bush Children's Hospital at Maine Medical Center, operated on Strider three times to repair life-threatening injures to his bowel. He said the injuries were the result of multiple trauma and could not have occurred accidentally or from a fall from a shed step or from being pulled from bed. He said this type of blunt abdominal trauma is seen in car accidents or a fall from a great height.
Defense attorneys, Deputy County Attorney Susan Boone and Judge Houran spent several sessions in bench conference and in open court without the jury present reviewing half a dozen close-up color photographs taking during those surgeries. The photographs showed Strider's internal organ and bowel area. Boone argued the photographs were key to the state's case, as the issue is that not only was there serious bodily injury to the boy, but that a "tremendous amount of force" was used. Counselors eventually agreed on using three photographs to illustrate Mallory's testimony.
Testimony continues Wednesday in Carroll County Superior Court.

Last Saturday was an interesting day. My son, Hayes, and I delivered a large, private banquet room table to a popular restaurant that's moving to a new downtown location in a couple weeks. He landed the job as part of an order for 15 or so other various-sized dining tables in the public part of the new restaurant space. His woodworking business has been keeping him busy since the first of the year.
This 14′-long table is supported by three pedestals and is made from 8/4 recycled white oak lumber. That lumber was originally used for horse stables at a nearby race track. Neither the table design or the use of the material was his idea; it just fit the interior design specs. It was awful to work with – trust me.
What made the day interesting for me was the experience of standing at the intersection of my past and my future. As you may know, I'll be retiring soon from Popular Woodworking Magazine after a near 19-year stint. In my retirement I'll be working somewhat regularly with Hayes in the shop, helping him when he needs it and working on my own projects when he doesn't. We've shared shop space for several years now so it should be an easy transition for me and, I hope, for him. It's great to share my experience with him. And I learn new things from him as well.
The intersection with my past was not so much my time with the magazine but my years in the custom furniture and cabinet business. In one shop I helped manage, one of our specialties was very large, very expensive boardroom conference tables. I think the longest one we ever made was just over 40′. It was so big there were built-in microphones that would rise up though the tabletop with the flip of a switch. Building these amazing monsters required more than a few engineering tricks, especially when large fields of the tabletops were inset granite or marble slabs, or fancy veneered panels. Helping Hayes figure out the logistics of his first big table allowed me the chance to dust off some of those old tricks and hand them down to the next generation. It felt good.
Hayes came to woodworking as an outgrowth of his industrial design degree and a desire to build some of the work he designs. I didn't push him into woodworking but he certainly had a lot of exposure to the shop growing up. Actually, I preferred he pursue his natural ability to draw and his developed sense of scale and proportion. For a time in college, he contributed a hand-drawn illustration each issue of Popular Woodworking. He continues to use those illustration skills as you can see in his "Joinery" poster here. And allow me make a shameless commercial pitch – you can order one from his web site and have a beautiful poster on highest-quality paper. And you will lend support an up and coming, but still struggling, woodworker. Brush Factory, by the way, is the name of his business. It's taken from the original occupant of the shop we now occupy, the "Cincinnati Brush Manufacturing Co."
I'm grateful to be retiring in good health and have some quality years to spend in the shop doing some serious (and sometimes not-so-serious) woodworking on a relaxed schedule. That I can do this sharing shop space with Hayes will make it extra enjoyable.
– Steve Shanesy
p.s. Hayes also did many of the illustrations for Bob Flexner's book, "Flexner on Finishing" (on sale right now for $15.59 in hardcover).

G6825, Reviewed January 2012
Azaleas and rhododendrons are shrubs for all seasons. In winter some stand out with large evergreen leaves. In spring the flowers are showy; throughout the summer and fall the leaves add a pleasing, deep green color to the garden. Some deciduous azaleas add bright fall color before the leaves drop. The spectacular spring flowers of azaleas and rhododendrons make them among the most popular garden shrubs.
Although all azaleas and rhododendrons are classed as Rhododendron by plant taxonomists, the name "azalea" is commonly used for native deciduous species and some evergreen Asian types. In general, "Rhododendron" is used for those species that have large, evergreen, leathery leaves. No sharp division can be made, and it is always correct to call any of them rhododendrons.
The terms azalea and rhododendron are used as they commonly apply. Whatever name is used, the culture required for all these plants is very similar (See Figure 1). The same cultural practices may also be applied to blueberries, pieris, heather, holly and other plants that prefer acid, organic soils.
Most azaleas and rhododendrons are at their best in fairly mild, humid climates. Most of Missouri does not have their preferred climate, so selecting a good site is very important.
A site sloping to the north or east is usually best, because it is protected from drying south and west winds. Here they are less subjected to rapid temperature changes in late fall or early spring.
Always plant azaleas and rhododendrons where they get wind protection. Buildings and slopes provide good barriers. Evergreen shrubs or trees such as pine, juniper or spruce planted to the south or west of rhododendrons protect them and make good backgrounds for showing off the flowers.
Plants not given protection from the wind often develop leaf scorch or splitting of the bark on the stems. Avoid corners of buildings where wind tends to be stronger.
Many people think of azaleas and rhododendrons as shade lovers. Yet dense shade is not satisfactory. Filtered sunlight is ideal, but morning sunlight with shade after 1 p.m. is satisfactory. Plants may survive continuous shade if trees have branches pruned high. Protection from afternoon sun may also be given by fences, shrubbery or screens.
Some deciduous azaleas are less sensitive to full sun and should be used if the location is not suitable for evergreen types. However, in full sun the delicate flower shades will bleach quickly even though the plants may grow well.
Proper placement alone is not enough. Azaleas and rhododendrons must have soil that is prepared carefully and thoroughly. Don't expect good results from plants set in existing soil in most areas. Roots of azaleas and rhododendrons are very delicate and unable to penetrate heavy or rocky soils.
Because the delicate roots of azaleas and rhododendrons are easily destroyed, excellent drainage is important. To test drainage, dig a hole 6 inches deep in the bed and fill it with water. If the water has not drained from the hole in four hours, install drainage tile to carry away excess water, or build raised beds.
Starting the bed
Planting azaleas and rhododendrons in groups rather than individually permits more efficient use of prepared soil. Don't place the bed close to shallow-rooted trees such as maple, ash or elm. Feeder roots rapidly move into improved soil and compete for water and plant food.
For best results, dig out the bed 18 inches deep and at least 30 inches wide. Plants should be spaced 3 to 4 feet apart and at least 18 inches from the edge of the bed.
If drainage is poor, build a raised bed at least a foot above ground level.
Soil acidity
Azaleas and rhododendrons must have an acid soil. Most of them thrive best at a soil pH between 5.0 and 5.5. In Missouri, most soils have a native acid reaction. However, alluvial or river bottom soils may have a more alkaline reaction and need to be made more acid to grow azaleas and rhododendrons well.
Soils previously limed heavily for a garden or other crops in the past may need the pH lowered. Mortar or similar building materials mixed into the soil close to foundations may increase pH (lower acidity). When the pH is unknown, take a soil sample to your local MU Extension center for testing.
Table 1
Soil amendments needed to lower loamy soil pH to 5.5
Clay soils will require heavier applications of pH-lowering amendment; sandy soils, less amendment.
Correcting pH
Soil for rhododendrons may be made more acid by applying agricultural sulfur or ferrous (iron) sulfate. The amount of change may vary with different soil types. Well-amended soils with a pH above 5.5 may require either iron sulfate or agricultural sulfur to lower the soil pH (make the soil more acid) by about one unit. See Table 1 for the amounts of these products to use depending on soil type and initial pH. These high sulfur amendment levels should be used only when digging a bed deeply to incorporate the materials thoroughly. For a gradual pH change in beds with existing plants that cannot be tilled, see the section (below) on iron chlorosis.
Soils that are too acid (below pH 4.5) may easily be made less acid by adding ground limestone.
Mixing the soil
A large amount of organic matter is necessary for good growth of rhododendrons and azaleas. In clay soils, a mixture of 50 percent ground pine bark, or leaf mold from pine or oak leaves, 25 percent coarse sand and 25 percent topsoil could be used. Avoid using a large amount of peat , especially for rhododendrons, because peat-amended soil may hold excessive moisture during wet conditions in winter and spring. If the native soil is sandy, use 50 percent soil and 50 percent organic material.
When digging the bed, discard any heavy, tight subsoil and save the topsoil. Bring in more good-quality topsoil if needed. Combine the topsoil, sand, organic material and sulfur (if necessary); mix thoroughly, and replace into the bed. Fill the bed area 4 to 6 inches higher than the surrounding soil to allow for settling.
If possible, the bed should be prepared several months before the plants are to be set out. Since it will take some time for the pH to change, check the soil pH about a year later to see if the adjustment was correct.
Setting the plants
Most rhododendrons and azaleas are purchased with soil around the roots either in containers or "balled and burlapped." Dig the hole in the prepared bed slightly larger but no deeper than the ball or container. Set the ball so it is 2 inches higher than the surrounding soil. Never plant azaleas or rhododendrons so deeply that the plant stem is covered deeper than it had been growing in the nursery. Planting too shallow is better than too deep. Soak well after planting and firm soil around the ball.
Most azaleas and rhododendrons are shallow rooted and need a heavy mulch to conserve moisture around the roots and to minimize winter injury. Coarse materials such as partly decomposed oak leaves or pine needles are ideal. Oak shavings, hardwood chips or aged sawdust and sphagnum peatmoss may also be used satisfactorily. Use a mulch of sawdust or hardwood chips about 2 inches deep. A mulch of oak leaves should be 4 to 6 inches deep.
Keep the mulch around the plants at all seasons of the year, but don't allow it to be too high on the plant stems during the summer and fall. In winter pile it higher to help prevent winter leaf scorch or bark splitting on the stems.
There is little need for fertilizing at planting time. A light application of a fertilizer formulated for acid-loving plants may be added to the surface, according to the directions on the package, before the mulch is applied.
Other planting methods
Single plants. To prepare for a single specimen, dig a planting hole about 30 inches wide but no deeper than the root ball of the specimen to be planted. This will accommodate the average-sized rhododendron plant purchased at the nursery. Single azalea plants will not need a hole quite as large. Clay in the bottom of the hole should be broken up as much as possible. While digging, save and use only the topsoil as described for bed preparation. Prepare the soil mixture as described above and fill the hole. Make sure that the fill and plant are at least 2 to 3 inches above grade. Water and mulch as previously described.
Raised beds
In some soils or locations, raised beds may be the only way to provide adequate drainage. They should be raised at least 12 inches above the normal soil grade. Instructions for making raised beds are given in MU Extension publication G6985, Raised-Bed Gardening.
Rhododendrons and azaleas require little care once they are properly established. A good heavy mulch will keep down weeds. No cultivation should be done because the shallow, fine roots are easily damaged.
Avoid using general garden fertilizers for rhododendrons, azaleas and other acid-loving plants. Use those specially formulated for acid-loving plants and follow directions. Fertilizers supplying the ammonium form of nitrogen are best.
Rhododendrons and azaleas grow well naturally at relatively low nutrient levels. Therefore, fertilization should be done carefully, or the fine, delicate roots close to the soil surface will be damaged. A fertilizer analysis similar to 6-10-4 applied at 2 pounds per 100 square feet to the soil surface is usually adequate. Cottonseed meal is also a good fertilizer.
Fertilizing should be done in May, but do not fertilize after July 1. Late summer fertilization may force out tender fall growth that will be killed by the winter.
Soil acidity must be maintained to ensure good growth. If the soil pH is above 5.5, apply iron sulfate or agricultural sulfur to the surface. The amount to apply will depend on the existing pH, but in all cases apply only a small amount at any one time.
The thickness of the mulch must be maintained, but should not be excessive, as previously recommended. As the old mulch decomposes, add new mulch. This is best done in the late fall. Mulch should be moved away from direct contact with stems in early fall to allow hardening during the onset of cold weather. Replace and replenish mulch before a hard freeze. If wood chips, chopped bark or only partially decomposed sawdust are used, fertilize with about one-half pound of ammonium sulfate for each bushel of material used. The fertilizer is best applied in the spring.
Many rhododrendrons have been killed by overwatering in sites where drainage was faulty. If the soil is moist but the plant still wilts, mist over the plant lightly to increase humidity. This practice is especially important for newly planted evergreen species. Avoid excessive irrigation in fall. Plants kept dry in September will tend to harden off and be better prepared for the winter. If the fall has been excessively dry, watering should be done after the first killing frost. At that time watering will not reduce winter hardiness but will prepare the plant for winter. The soil should be thoroughly moist before cold weather sets in. The best time for fall watering is about Thanksgiving.
Figure 2
Snap off flower cluster as soon as petals collapse. For more severe pruning, cut back to whorl of leaves.
There is little need for pruning azaleas and rhododendrons. If growth becomes excessive, reduce the size with light pruning. Details are given in MU Extension publication G6870, Pruning Ornamental Shrubs, in the section on broad-leaved evergreens. It is important to remove the flower clusters on rhododendrons as soon as flowering is complete (Figure 2), although this practice is not necessary on most azaleas. Failure to do this will reduce flowering the following year. Break out only the dead flower cluster, being careful not to damage the young buds clustered at its base.
Azaleas sometimes branch poorly and form a loose, open shrub. Plant form can be improved by pinching out the soft, new shoots of vigorous-growing plants. Do not pinch after July because flower buds will not have time to develop for the following year.
Winter protection
The two winter enemies of evergreen rhododendrons and azaleas are sun and cold wind. If hardy types are selected and proper locations are chosen, little or no winter protection is needed. If existing varieties show winter damage, provide some protection. Don't be alarmed when leaves curl and droop on cold days; that is normal.
Discarded Christmas trees may be used to protect plants. Branches can be anchored in the ground to shield the rhododendron from wind and sun. Screens may be built of burlap or other materials to provide shade and windbreak. Protection must remain loose and airy throughout the winter. Small plants should not be covered with large mounds of leaves. Masses of leaves may begin to decay and smother the plant beneath them. Leaves may be pulled up around the stems in late fall but should not cover the entire plant. Temporary fences made of lath or snow fencing are effective in providing necessary windbreak and light shade.
Sunscald, scorch
Large-leaved evergreen rhododendrons are sometimes subject to sunscald during winter. This is most likely to happen if the plant did not receive ample moisture before freezing in fall. The exposed portions of the leaf (usually the central portion when the leaf was curled) may become brown. This may also appear on the edges of some leaves. To prevent scorch, plants should be well watered in November if rainfall has been sparse, protected from drying winds, mulched well and given some shade.
Iron chlorosis
If leaves turn yellow in sections between the veins, but the veins remain green, iron deficiency is the cause. If the entire leaf turns yellow with some browning, other problems are suggested.
Chlorosis may result from soil that is not acid enough, poor drainage, nematodes or other conditions that cause root or stem injury.
Iron chlorosis can usually be temporarily controlled by spraying the foliage with an iron (ferrous) sulfate solution or with chelated iron. If iron sulfate is used, apply at a rate of one ounce per gallon of water. If a chelated iron product is used, follow the manufacturer's directions.
A slower but more permanent control can be obtained by applying iron to the soil rather than the foliage. Use 2 pounds iron sulfate per 100 square feet (1/8 cup per 10 square feet) or chelated iron according to directions. Conditions leading to chlorosis, such as poor drainage or alkaline soil, must also be corrected.
The application of 1-1/4 cups of iron sulfate per 100 square feet of bed area each fall appears to help harden growth for the winter and also help prevent iron chlorosis.
Insects and diseases
There are few insects or diseases that are troublesome on azaleas and rhododendrons. Those that normally occur can be easily controlled with all-purpose fungicides and insecticides. Prompt treatment as soon as the problem is noticed will be most effective.
Stem bark splitting
Rapid temperature changes and freezing can cause the bark to split and peel off. The stems do not usually heal and the branch dies above the injury. Death may not occur for one or two years. Winter protection may help, but generally the best remedy is to plant reliably hardy varieties or prune out affected branches of injured plants.
There are many beautiful rhododendrons. However, some are not reliably cold hardy or heat tolerant in our area. In general, more varieties may be grown in the milder climate of southern Missouri. The following selected varieties are some of the most reliable, although not always the most beautiful.
Of the many hybrids available, those derived from Rhododendron catawbiense, called Catawba hybrids, have the greatest hardiness. New varieties may be superior to those listed, but establishing their true adaptability takes many years. The collector may be willing to take risks with tender plants, but the beginner should always select varieties well adapted to the local environment.
Figure 3
Rhododendron variety Nova Zembla in bloom.
The evergreen azaleas need protected sites, and winter protection is necessary in many areas. In southeastern Missouri, the number of species and cultivars that may be grown increases and the need for protected sites and winter protection decreases.
Kurume hybrids
Most popular of the evergreen azaleas are the Kurume hybrids. They are popular for forcing in pots and for planting outdoors. In the southern United States, they become large, showy shrubs in the spring. They are fairly slow-growing plants with dense, twiggy growth. Hardiness varies considerably among the many varieties. Here are some of the hardiest.
Gable hybrids
Gable hybrids were developed with hardiness in mind. Growth habit is similar to the Kurumes, but foliage may drop along a portion of the stem during winter, leaving only a few evergreen leaves at each tip.
Gable hybrids are sometimes called Kaempferi hybrids because one of the parents was the relatively hardy R. kaempferi. Although some are quite hardy, others are not, and no generalization as to hardiness of the Kaempferi hybrids can be made. R. kaempferi was also one of the parents used in the Glenn Dale hybrids. There are about 400 named varieties of Glenn Dale hybrids, but their hardiness has not been adequately tested in Missouri.
Kaempferi hybrids tend to be more upright growing
Girard hybrids
Girard hybrids are a fairly recent introduction among evergreen azaleas suitable for colder climates. Their growth habits vary with variety, but generally most are fairly low and bushy. Leaves are bright green and some develop a reddish fall color. Although some older leaves may drop in the fall, leaf retention is greater than that of the Gable hybrids. Flowers are primarily single but fairly large. There are many fairly hardy varieties in this group. Here are a few distinctive varieties to consider.
Figure 4
The Girard hybrid azaleas produce abundant flowers on compact plants similar to Girard Rose, shown here.
Figure 5
Deciduous azaleas drop all their leaves in winter and flower before leaves fully develop. Unlike the evergreen varieties, they can be found in orange and yellow.
In areas where the evergreen azaleas are marginal, deciduous azaleas might best be selected (Figure 5). They are more cold hardy and provide a mass of color in spring. Different species vary widely in hardiness, however. Those normally found in nurseries will normally be the ones best suited to the area. Remember that there are no bargains in azaleas and rhododendrons. Choose only vigorous plants of good varieties. Beginners should choose some of the old standards and later try some of the newer introductions. Deciduous azalea varieties are as follows.
Some of the native American deciduous azaleas may be grown in Missouri, but they are too diverse to be included here and many have not been adequately tested.

Grover's Lab Coat
High Four!
Presumably this shirt works best if you wear it under a lab coat.
A study published in 2012 in the Journal of Experimental Social Psychology showed that subjects who wore lab coats were more attentive and performed tasks more accurately than those not wearing lab coats. Which means everyone should wear lab coats, all the time. You'd ace all your tests. You could measure once and cut once. And maybe they wouldn't forget your ketchup at the drive thru, although we could be hoping for too much there.
