The Kidney Transplant Program at Froedtert & the Medical College of Wisconsin is a national leader, known for its expertise in kidney and pancreas transplantation.
We performed our first kidney transplant in 1967 and the state's first pancreas transplant following a kidney transplant in 1987.
Froedtert & the Medical College of Wisconsin are one of 19 transplant centers in the country involved in the world's second largest kidney chain in history. On June 6, 2013, the National Kidney Registry announced the successful completion of Chain 221, which involved 56 participants (28 donors and 28 recipients.) A Racine man was sickest of 28 transplant patients in chain.
Froedtert Hospital is nationally ranked for six medical specialties, including nephrology.
We take a multidisciplinary approach throughout our End-Stage Kidney Disease and Kidney Transplant programs. A team of transplant-experienced specialists, including surgeons, nephrologists, endocrinologists, nurses, social workers, coordinators, dietitians and psychologists, works closely with patients from initial evaluation through post-transplantation.
Our integrated approach takes into account the whole picture of a patient's health, which benefits the patient throughout the process. As a result, our program exceeds the national average in patient and graft survival rates. Go to the website for the Scientific Registry of Transplant Recipients to see reports on transplant outcomes.
In transplant medicine, experience is vital. We have performed thousands of transplants since our program began, and our physicians have cumulative transplant experience that exceeds that of other programs in the region.
Because many of our physicians focus solely on transplant medicine, they are on the leading edge of new developments and the latest treatment options.
To compare survival rates of kidney and pancreas transplants across the country, please visit the Scientific Registry of Transplant Recipients.
Many renal diseases can lead to kidney failure and the need for a transplant. We have experts in treating kidney stones, cystic disease of the kidney, glomerular diseases, diabetic diseases, problems resulting from hypertension or radiation therapy, and much more. Our goal is to delay end-stage renal failure for patients with a broad range of renal diseases. We want to offer the best therapies possible to enhance their long-term survival and quality of life.
There are generally two treatment options for patients with end-stage renal disease. One is dialysis, the process of cleansing the blood by passing it through a special machine. Hemodialysis filters waste products from the blood through a membrane, while peritoneal dialysis uses the patient's own body tissues inside the abdominal cavity to act as a filter. In some cases, patients can undergo dialysis at home. Peritoneal dialysis is generally always done at home. Hemodialysis is usually done in a dialysis center.
The second option is kidney transplantation. A kidney transplant may be done alone or with a pancreas transplant for patients with diabetes. Transplants can be done using a kidney from a deceased donor or from a living donor.
Living donor kidney transplants have become by far the preferred method for several reasons. First, living donor transplants can be carefully planned so that the recipient and donor are both in optimal health. Because the kidney is coming from a living donor, it is in excellent condition, and the kidney being removed is immediately transplanted. This minimizes any damage to the organ. Also, living donor transplants can be performed without prolonged periods (years) of dialysis. Thus, recipients generally have better long-term outcomes.
With a living donor, there is often an emotional bond with the recipient, and that bond can have a positive effect on the outcome. The recipients know that someone close to them has made a great sacrifice, and that can help motivate them to take good care of themselves after their transplant.
Living donors are evaluated according to strict guidelines. Donors with potential medical problems such as hypertension or diabetes are not accepted to ensure the best possible outcome for both recipient and donor. While the procedure is very safe, donating a kidney is not without risk to the donor. However, a living donor's risk of developing kidney failure later in life is about the same as that of the general population.
Transplants using kidneys from deceased donors are also very successful, but there are some drawbacks compared to living donor transplants. Patients needing deceased donor transplants are placed on a waiting list, and it can take months and sometimes up to five years before a donated kidney is available. Once a kidney is available, several hours may pass between the time the kidney is identified and the time the transplant is actually performed. And, while the transplant surgery is planned, it is still done on an emergency basis.
Increasingly, our physicians are performing pre-emptive kidney transplants, which are done with living donors just as a patient reaches the point where dialysis would be required. By keeping patients from beginning dialysis, they are spared additional surgery which is needed to prepare for dialysis.
For diabetic patients with kidney failure, pancreas transplants can be done in conjunction with a kidney transplant. The transplants are usually done at the same time with organs from the same deceased donor. Alternatively, a living donor kidney transplant can be done followed by a deceased donor pancreas transplant later on. Following a pancreas transplant, patients no longer require insulin and can eat a normal diet with the expectation of normal blood sugar control. In the long run, this results in improvement or prevention of secondary diabetic complications such as retinopathy (eye disease), neuropathy (nerve involvement) and vascular disease.
Because excellent follow-up care is critical to maintain and enhance a transplant patient's long-term survival, Froedtert & the Medical College of Wisconsin offer a multidisciplinary Transplant Clinic to provide a central location to continue care. We conduct screening programs to help detect potential problems before they threaten a patient's health. We offer specialized screenings unique to our program to help prevent damage to the transplanted organ. Our goal is to optimize each patient's kidney function and overall health. We also have dedicated post-transplant coordinators who work with our patients to coordinate every aspect of their follow-up care.
Froedtert & the Medical College of Wisconsin participate in basic research and clinical trials involving transplant recipients to optimize patient care and outcomes. Important breakthrough investigations are credited to the Medical College of Wisconsin physicians.

Vancouver Canucks general manager Mike Gillis met with the media on Tuesday to address the premature end to his team's season and spoke out for the first time on his decision to trade Cody Hodgson at the trade deadline in February.
Gillis admitted to the media that Hodgson, who along with defenceman Alexander Sulzer, was sent to the Buffalo Sabres for Zack Kassian and Marc-Andre Gragnani because of irreconcilable differences.
"There clearly were issues that were ongoing," Gillis said. "I spent more time on Cody's issues than every other player combined on our team the last three years."
Gillis also stated that leading up to the deadline, the club increased Hodgson's minutes in order to increase his trade value.
"We built him into something we could move," Gillis stated. "There were six young players that I would have traded him for if any of them were ever made available. One was made available at the trade deadline and it was Zack.
"I don't regret that trade. I'd do it today"
Hodgson, who was taken 10th overall in the 2008 NHL Entry Draft, scored 19 goals and 22 assists in 83 games this season between the Cancucks and Sabres.

The Third Shift for Working Mothers in Restaurants
2 million working mothers face the precarious situation of sub-minimum wage work with little to no child care supports. This is a national emergency, as four out of ten households today are headed by breadwinner moms. With mothers earning 4% less per child than their equivalents, the cost of raising the next generation is borne solely on their backs.

Active In All Arenas
While trade and farm policy garner significant attention, the National Cotton Council devotes
considerable energy to other legislative and regulatory matters affecting the U.S. cotton industry's health.
Which legislation received a focus this year?
As always, the NCC provides input on and monitoring of legislation development, weighing in as necessary. For example, we responded to a global warming questionnaire from the House Agriculture Committee in preparation for imminent climate change legislation. Then, we monitored the development of the American Clean Energy and Security Act that would implement a cap-and-trade program to reduce U.S. greenhouse gas emissions. Although there were concessions in the bill for agriculture, the NCC is not supporting this legislation as proposed because the higher production costs for each U.S. cotton sector would far outweigh any benefits.
In another arena, industry support for the new Derivatives Markets Transparency and Account-ability Act of 2009 was conveyed in testimony at a House Agriculture Commit-tee hearing. Simultaneously, the NCC asked the Commodity Futures Trading Com-mission chairman to publish its investigation findings into the March 2008 cotton futures market events. The NCC also urged a House Agriculture Committee panel to continue its oversight of risk management, including the federal crop insurance program, to ensure a meaningful tool is available for producers. NCC Chairman Jay Hardwick recently communicated to lawmakers about the weather's devastating effects on the 2009 Mid-South cotton crop.
What about regulations and education?
The NCC is active on numerous regulatory matters – from food safety to Fomesafen, the latter an important product for managing resistant pigweed in the Mid-South and Southeast. On food safety, NCC members were urged to convey serious concerns to their Congressional members regarding a House bill that would have significantly expanded the Food and Drug Administration's authority to regulate and oversee on-farm production activities. In anticipation of Senate action on food safety, the NCC and 25 other agricultural groups sent a letter to a Senate committee recommending or endorsing certain provisions of S. 510.
NCC also has been actively engaged in opposition to a Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals decision which vacated an EPA rule exempting certain pesticide applications from the requirement of Clean Water Act permits. Although the case involved application directly to, over or near water bodies, EPA has identified several scenarios that will affect production agriculture. The court rejected a request for a case rehearing so the NCC and other agriculture and pesticide organizations are appealing to the Supreme Court.
The Cotton Foundation deserves credit for supporting a NCC Web server dedicated to cotton-related education. Among recent additions is a weed resistance video to our online Weed Resistance Learning Module; the English/Spanish streaming presentations for our "Contamination-Free Cotton: Keep It Clean and Pure" campaign and the "Bale Packaging: Eliminating Broken Bale Ties" video. Numerous other educational tools are posted on our Web site, such as the recent "Recommendations for Handling Seed Cotton Exposed to Excessive Rainfall" document.
Mark Lange is president and chief executive officer for the National Cotton Council of America. He and other NCC leaders contribute columns on this page.

Remove LAMP in Ubuntu
Filed under: HowTo, linux, Ubuntu, web development
The most popular post on this site is the one showing how to install a LAMP server on Ubuntu. Once you're done developing your websites on your computer, you may want to remove the LAMP server from your Ubuntu installation. Actually, you probably want to leave the Linux part and only remove the AMP part, (Apache, MySQL, php).
I've done a post previously that shows how to do this in several steps, but I wanted to come up with a more automated way. So I came up with this one-liner that will remove Apache, MySQL, php, and phpMyAdmin from your Ubuntu system.
Warning: this command will uninstall the packages from your system without asking for confirmation.
If you're a bit unsure about doing this and you only want to see a list of packages that will be removed, just leave off the end portion from the last pipe onward, like this.
14 Responses to "Remove LAMP in Ubuntu"
Nice, not only did it remove LAMP, but it also got rid of KDE when the usual command to remove it wasn't working. Sometimes side-effects are useful
thanks, worked perfectly for me. Now i can re-install lamp from the scratch.
Vorsicht! This tears out your Kubuntu/KDE-Desktop too! (At least on my Kubuntu 12.10)
-may i delete every folder like's apache2, php5, mysql, and phpmyadmin?
i was panic and i do that.. and my lamp was error.. they did'nt work well..
can you give some guide,, how to reinstall my lamp ?
Little heads up, this command removed my Eclipse packages and my Eclipse-platform
this don't will delete the var/www/ directory right?
Thanks so much! That made life easy. Lamp is gone!
thank you..
i want to reinstall my lamp
I am running Ubuntu 10.04 under Virtual Box on a MAC Host. I have attempted to do a LAMP installation per instructions found online. I have successfully installed everything but the PHPMyAdmin. Something is wrong with the installation, but I have no way of knowing what it is. The command line instructions for the install, were clear, the process just wouldn't complete. And I've tried to go back and re-install PHPMyAdmin several times, now it tells me there's nothing to change or update, but I cannot access PHPMyAdmin in a browser, so it was obviously unsuccessful.
I want to uninstall JUST the PHPMyAdmin and try again. Can you give me a line of code that would do that?
Thanks, WCW
This would be better in a for loop (eliminating the need for xargs):
for pkg in `dpkg -l *apache* *mysql* phpmyadmin | grep ^ii | awk '{ print $2}'`; do apt-get -y purge --auto-remove $pkg; done;

Former U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton will speak at an upstate New York college this fall.
Hamilton College announced Friday that Clinton will give a free public lecture on the evening of Oct. 4 in the Margaret Bundy Scott Field House in the village of Clinton, 40 miles east of Syracuse.
Clinton's appearance is part of the Sacerdote Great Names Series at Hamilton, named after Alex Sacerdote, a 1994 Hamilton graduate and current trustee of the liberal arts college.
Clinton, a former U.S. senator for New York, will be the fourth former secretary of state to speak as part of the series, following Colin Powell, Madeleine Albright and Condoleezza Rice. Her husband, former President Bill Clinton, visited Hamilton in November, 2004.

Looking for a health insurance plan? New information about private insurance benefits and pricing is available on HealthCare.gov, the website established in July by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) for information about the Affordable Care Act.
"To improve competition and lower costs," the new tools will make the health insurance market more transparent. For example, for the first time ever, price
estimates for private insurance policies are available. These estimates allow individuals to compare prices as they take advantage of "one-stop shopping" for an affordable health insurance plan.
The idea is to put consumers, not their insurance companies, in charge and take the guesswork and confusion out of buying health insurance.
To help individuals make more informed choices, HealthCare.gov includes two notable metrics for the public. Insurance providers are required to post:
"Millions of Americans have logged on to HealthCare.gov's Insurance Finder to see what health coverage options are available to them," said HHS Secretary
Kathleen Sebelius. "The search and compare feature will help Americans find coverage that meets their needs and that gives them value for their dollars now."
Created under the Affordable Care Act, HealthCare.gov is the first website of its kind to bring information and links to health insurance plans in one place to make it easy for those searching for a plan to learn about and compare their insurance choices.
For more information and resources, visit www.HealthCare.gov.

In Technology as Experience, John McCarthy and Peter Wright argue that any account of what is often called the user experience must take into consideration the emotional, intellectual, and sensual aspects of our interactions with technology. We don't just use technology, they point out; we live with it. They offer a new approach to understanding human-computer interaction through examining the felt experience of technology.
This collection of articles and associated discussion papers focuses on a problem that has attracted increasing attention from linguists and psychologists throughout the world during the past several years. Reduced to essentials, the problem is that of discovering the character of the mental capacities that make it possible for human beings to attain knowledge of their language on the basis of fragmentary and haphazard early linguistic experience.

InfiniteGraph Use Case: Modeling Stackoverflow
I didn't hear much about InfiniteGraph after its 1.0 release, except this post that uses Stackoverflow data as input to demo some features of graph databases:
The vertices in the graph are represented as the Users, Questions and Answers above while the edges are represented as the interactions between them (i.e. a User "Posts" a Question, an Answer is "For" a Question, a User "Comments On" a Question or Answer). Simple enough, and like most other social graphs, users seem to be the focal points with the majority of connected edges. Now all I needed was a sample application that could construct the graph data model from the XML sources and run some queries.

FRANKFURT (Reuters) - Daimler AG
The maker of Mercedes-Benz limousines said it will only compare itself with companies that have an investment-grade credit rating, a major shift which means it can no longer measure performance against weaker firms like France's Renault SA
"This is significant because they are comparing themselves to competitors that are harder to keep up with. In the past Daimler often had it too easy," Metzler Bank automotive analyst Juegen Pieper said.
Investors have criticized Daimler's performance, and the profitability of its cars division, for lagging behind rivals BMW
Mercedes-Benz Cars had a return on sales from ongoing operations of 8 percent in the fourth quarter, up from 5.3 percent a year earlier.
The company aims to increase that to 10 percent in the medium term. BMW and Audi, both of which have yet to publish fourth-quarter results, last reported a quarterly automotive operating margin of 9 and 9.4 percent, respectively.
In 2012 and 2013, Daimler set pay for management board members partly by benchmarking the group's return on sales with that of BMW AG and Volkswagen AG
In 2014, the group will change to include all stock-exchange-listed vehicle manufacturers with an automotive proportion of more than 70 percent and an investment-grade rating, the report said.
Daimler declined to comment on the exact composition of the peer group.
But specifying listed companies makes it likely that Volvo Cars, which is owned by Zhejiang Geely Holding Group
Daimler might add Hyundai Motor Co <005380.KS> and Ford Motor Co
It will continue to use average return on sales as its performance measure, the report said.

Sudan's President Omar Hassan al-Bashir was in a jubilant mood when he announced to crowds of supporters that he was declaring a ceasefire in Darfur.
From his body language, you might have thought he had already ended the crisis and achieved his goal of avoiding a possible indictment by the International Criminal Court for alleged war crimes in Darfur.
In the build-up to his speech, supporters surged to the front of the crowd waving sticks and punching the air with their fists to show their support for the army officer who came to power in Sudan in a coup in 1989. There was almost a party atmosphere.
Tanzania's foreign minister Bernard Kamillius Membe was greeted with cheers as he announced that Sudan had shown that African countries could look after their own crises.
"The International Criminal Court is an irrelevance," said the Tanzanian minister. "You are masters of your own destiny. Africa does not need outsiders to resolve its conflicts."

(Reuters) - The Stanley Cup champion Los Angeles Kings will face off against the Anaheim Ducks at Dodger Stadium next January, the National Hockey League announced on Monday.
The game is the latest addition to the NHL's Stadium Series, which will kick off on New Year's Day with the Winter Classic between the Detroit Red Wings and Toronto Maple Leafs at Michigan Stadium.
The series will also include a game between the Chicago Blackhawks and the Pittsburgh Penguins on March 1 at Soldier Field, home of the NFL Chicago Bears.
The NHL is also believed to be considering two games at Yankee Stadium, featuring the New York Rangers, and another contest in Vancouver, prior to the Sochi Winter Games.
The NHL has been staging outdoor in some of baseball's iconic ballparks for a decade but Dodgers Stadium will be by far the most exotic and challenging venue.
The game at Dodgers Stadium is scheduled for January 25 when fans may still be wearing shorts and T-shirts, in contrast to the game in Michigan where spectators will be bundled up in snowsuits.
"Dodger Stadium has been home to many unique and special moments over the past 51 years," said Los Angeles Dodgers president Stan Kasten. "We'll add another first in 2014 when the Dodger Stadium infield turns to ice."
