The August, 2012 issue of the Annals of Neurology reported the finding of researchers at the University of California, San Francisco of a reduction in brain lesions and disease activity in multiple sclerosis (MS) patients who had higher levels of vitamin D. Multiple sclerosis is an autoimmune disease that can result in severe disability. The decreased prevalence of the MS in lower latitudes has led researchers to suggest a protective effect for sunlight and the vitamin D it produces in the body against the risk of developing the disease. The current discovery is the result of the five year EPIC study of 469 men and women with multiple sclerosis who underwent yearly blood testing for vitamin D and brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to evaluate disease progression. Ellen M. Mowry, MD, MCR and her associates determined that with each 10 nanogram per milliliter increase in serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D there was a corresponding 15 percent reduction in the risk of new brain lesions as well as a 32 percent lower risk of areas of active disease as indicated by white spots visible upon MRI examination. These areas reveal inflammation of the nerve fibers' myelin sheath, which provides insulation and facilitates the transmission of electric signals. Increases in new lesions and areas of active disease in early multiple sclerosis have been correlated with a greater risk of long term disability. Vitamin D improves TB recovery In an article published on September 4, 2012 in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, British researchers report a beneficial effect for vitamin D supplementation in tuberculosis (TB) patients being treated with antibiotics. The finding adds evidence to pre-antibiotic era treatment of TB that involved sunbathing (which stimulates the body's production of vitamin D) at sanatoriums. Ninety-five TB patients were randomized to receive a high dose of vitamin D or a placebo during their initial eight weeks of antibiotic therapy. Blood and sputum samples were analyzed before, during and after treatment. Participants who received vitamin D experienced more rapid sputum smear conversion, indicating accelerated clearance of Mycobacterium tuberculosis from the lungs, as well as a greater decline in factors related to inflammation in comparison with those who received a placebo. "These findings are very significant," stated lead researcher Adrian Martineau, who is a senior lecturer in respiratory infection and immunity at Queen Mary University of London's Blizard Institute. "They indicate that vitamin D may have a role in accelerating resolution of inflammatory responses in tuberculosis patients. This is important, because sometimes these inflammatory responses can cause tissue damage leading to the development of cavities in the lung. If we can help these cavities to heal more quickly, then patients should be infectious for a shorter period of time, and they may also suffer less lung damage" "More broadly, the ability of vitamin D to dampen down inflammatory responses without compromising the actions of antibiotics raises the possibility that supplementation might also have benefits in patients receiving antimicrobial therapy for pneumonia, sepsis and other lung infections," he added. "We are hoping to do more work to evaluate the effects of higher doses and different forms of vitamin D to see if they have a more dramatic effect."

This form is purely synthetic from two natural compounds; it has been shown to be beneficial for protecting the lipids from peroxidation. Lipophilic ascorbyl palmitate is able to cross biological barriers and satisfies the tissue demand for ascorbate better than the hydrophilic form. Ascorbyl palmitate should be considered as the preferred form of transport of ascorbate into neural tissues.

Small Local Companies Versus Mainland-Based Giants
(page 1 of 2)
Before Bill Jarvis took the helm seven years ago at Mobi PCS, a Hawaii-based wireless phone company, he had spent two decades working for other, bigger national brands.
So he knew what not to do.
"We could really study the category and see what's broken with it," says Jarvis, Mobi's president and COO. "We knew how the big companies thought and ways they got one over on the customer. We thought, 'What if we did the opposite?' "
Today, Mobi PCS has nine retail and service locations and thousands of subscribers, lured by the company's no-frills approach. Unlike its mainland-based counterparts, Mobi PCS started by offering unlimited talk, text and data for one flat rate, with both contract and no-contract options. That's been what sets it apart from the big national brands like AT&T, T-Mobile and Sprint. Jarvis says an independent survey found the company had a 96-percent satisfaction rate among its customers.
"The key was we looked for ways we could be different," Jarvis says.
That's the key for most local businesses up against mainland competitors with deep pockets, which can give them different advantages. Sometimes the advantage is lower prices, other times it's more locations or bigger stores, and often it's huge advertising and marketing budgets.
"It's tough to do business here," says real estate expert and consultant Stephany Sofos. "And what separates businesses here is location, convenience and service. If everything is equal, then it comes down to price point, that becomes the key issue."
It's a common theme in Hawaii: a big-box retailer moves in and smaller, locally owned shops close up. But there are hundreds of local businesses that compete successfully with bigger mainland rivals and, in some cases, have even knocked them out of Hawaii.
"We have to be simple, different, better." - Bill Jarvis, mobi PCS
City Mill is one local business that has survived fierce competition from not one, but two mainland giants, Home Depot and Lowe's. Both have locations that are within walking distance of City Mill's 60,000-square-foot flagship location on Nimitz Highway. Nonetheless, the hardware store chain is actually growing, with its ninth Oahu store opening this year at the new Laulani Village Shopping Center in Ewa Beach.
"I think the key for local businesses is to understand their strengths and weaknesses and not necessarily play the game with the other guys," says Steven Ai, president of the company started by his grandfather, Chung Kun Ai, in 1899. "If you can't match the prices, you have to offer something else."
That's value, he says.
Value can come in different forms, from the quality of the products sold to the knowledgeable customer service you get while you're shopping.
"It's really not about price. Price is what you pay, value is what you get," Ai says. "If prices were everything, everyone would be buying their clothes at Costco. But they don't. Different people want different things. … Providing value, that's the key to the success of a business."
Title Guaranty traces its roots back to 1896, when F.W. Makinney left Santa Clara, Calif., to become an abstractor of land titles in Hawaii. His company merged with another title business, forming Title Guaranty in 1952. For more than 100 years, it has weathered the fluctuations of Hawaii's economy and housing market to remain the state's oldest and largest title and escrow company, despite competition from three mainland-based companies.
"We focus on our people and our employees," says Michael Pietsch, VP of operations at the family-owned business. "And being a local company enables us to make better decisions in regard to the community."
Because Title Guaranty is located in the state it serves, it says its employees have a better sense of what its customers need and want. They can meet with clients face to face, get immediate feedback and make decisions on the spot. Mainland-based companies aren't always able to do that.
"Other companies outsource their title operations; we employ all local employees," Pietsch says. "When clients have questions, we have people here in Hawaii with a wealth of knowledge and resources to solve their problems. The mainland competition cannot offer this."
One Sunday afternoon, Jarvis was shopping inside Times Supermarket in Kahala and overheard a shopper talking on his cell phone to his wireless provider. Jarvis couldn't help but overhear him, and quickly realized the customer was talking to a Mobi representative. Jarvis tapped the man on his shoulder, told him he was the president and listened to his complaint. Jarvis got his number and fixed the problem the next day.
Not only did he learn about a text-messaging issue between Hawaii and the Philippines after talking with this customer, he was able to resolve the problem quickly.
"You're not going to run into the president of a national carrier at a supermarket on a Sunday afternoon and get him to help you with your problem," Jarvis says, laughing. "But it's that kind of thing that does allow us to make changes quickly."
Since Mobi doesn't require two-year contracts like some other carriers, Jarvis feels his company has to earn back its customers every month.
"That pressure forces us to be resourceful and creative every day," he says. "We have to be simple, different, better."

Whittling away: Lummi Nations carver demonstrates tribal traditions, techniques
Published on Wed, Feb 13, 2013 by
Brandy Kiger
Read More
Whittle by whittle, the chips of wood fall away as Charles Miller's handcrafted blade scrapes across the yellow plane of the
diamond willow root. He holds the handmade tool deftly, even though he's using his off hand, and each cut is exact.
When finished, the gnarled and twisted root that he found in Alaska will have become a walking stick carved with the likeness of an eagle. "I can't draw, but when I look at a piece of wood, I can see what it should be, so I carve away whatever I don't see until it's revealed," he said. "I think this will be an eagle, but I'm going to do something different, I'm going to carve talons out of it as well. I've never seen that before."
A member of the Lummi Nation, Miller has put his hand to work carving totems and walking sticks, among other items over the past years, and even carved the totem pole that was sent to New York as a memorial in the wake of the 9/11 attacks. "I wasn't supposed to be the one," he said. "But it was an honor to carve it."
Miller, who lives in an elder home on Lummi, said that he used to spend 12 hours a day, seven days a week bringing intricate carvings to life from wood that was "gifted" to him.
"I was a stone mason for many years before I was a wood carver," the 71-year-old said. "I learned how to handle stone and listen to it. But it was too hard on the hands. Wood has a lot more give."
An injury a few years back sidelined his art, after he sliced the tendons in the wrist of his dominant hand. "I fell asleep and dropped my knife … Most of my knives are sharp enough to shave with, so I didn't even feel it. It took me two years to teach myself how to carve again," he said. "Now I only carve a couple hours a day."
Though the injury may have slowed his work, it hasn't made it any less beautiful. He recently finished carving a totem pole, the first one since his injury, that he intends to gift to his son.
The totem was on display during his presentation at the Lummi Gateway Center. "The top half is Wolf," he said as he worked his way across the totem explaining each part of the carving. "And the bottom is Raven. In our culture, Wolf is the teacher and Raven is the trickster. So, with my son, I'm the Wolf and he's the Raven."
He plans to paint the totem with traditional Lummi colors of red, black and white. "Collectors think that totems are more valuable if they aren't painted, because they are more natural. But the colors are used to emphasize the parts of the story the carving tells. So I think I'll paint it."
When asked if all carvers start out as whittlers, Miller replied with a chuckle. "I think we're all still just whittlers," he said. "Our whittles just get bigger."
Though he is considered a master carver, it's a term he is hesitant to embrace. "I don't know if I want to be considered a
master carver," he said. "When you're a master, you've got nothing else to learn. So I'll just keep whittling because I don't ever want to stop learning."
Miller will be demonstrating his carving technique for the public every Saturday during February at the Lummi Gateway Center at 4920 Rural Avenue, Ferndale from 1 to 3 p.m. The event is free, and attendees are encouraged to ask questions.
On March 2, Lummi elder Clarissa Finkbonner Young will tell stories and teach about "the old ways."

For the first time, Mark Cunningham is letting the world know he's living with HIV. His doctor diagnosed him in 1991.
Cunningham thinks he would have received testing earlier if he knew about an incentive program run by the Florida Department of Health.
It gives gift cards to people who come in to get tested for HIV.
Over the past two years we discovered the agency spent $256,254 on gift cards to places like Publix and Starbucks.
We took our questions to the Department of Health in Tallahassee where spokeswoman Susan Smith met with us.
Andy: You were paying them to come in and get tested?Smith: These were incentives for these incentives for these individuals that is correct.Andy: They were getting a gift card with money on it.Smith: That is correct.
"Whose dime are you spending? You're not spending your dime, you're spending my dime," says Florida's Taxpayer Association founder Curtis Holmes.
Holmes calls it a waste of taxpayer money because most clinics offer HIV testing for free. "That's a bribe," he said from his Largo, Florida office.
Sharon Murphy runs a similar incentive program at the McGregor Clinic, an HIV outreach center in Fort Myers. "Yea, it's a bribe. It's an incentive, but it works," she says.
Murphy says the program ultimately saves taxpayers money, because it can potentially prevent an increase in health care costs by catching the disease sooner.
"People are watching this so that they know where their tax dollars are. I'd like as many of those people to know what their HIV status is," she told us.
But not many people seem to be taking advantage of the program.
We took a closer look at the cards purchased in Palm Beach County.
In 2008 the Department of Health bought 2,576 gift cards. But 951, less than half, were ever used.
That's more than $15,700 of your tax money tied up in gift cards that are more than a year old.
While we were able to get this information for the cards bought for Palm Beach County, the state is still working on finding out how many gift cards have been given out across Florida.
Right now we don't know how much of the more than $200,000 worth of cards have been used.
State Representative Nick Thompson (R - Fort Myers) says the expenses we uncovered gives the legislature more ammo to force state agencies to post their expenditures on the internet.
"Going forward, we want to take a closer look at what they're doing with these gift cards," he said.
Representative Thompson gave our findings to the incoming speaker of the house, who promised to look at the impact of the gift card incentive program.
Taxpayer money or not, Cunningham thinks incentive programs save lives.
"If it takes a gift card to get them in to get tested and find out, because it's well worth it then they know," Cunningham told us.

Born in Los Angeles and raised in Toronto, Laurie Holden currently resides in Atlanta, where "The Walking Dead" is filmed. The actress plays Andrea on the popular series, which is AMC's highest-rated show. An avid traveler, Holden encourages people to get out and explore the world, and help others in need. "I highly recommend joining a volunteer organization," she says. "There's no better experience than becoming part of the solution. I did this, myself. I worked in a daycare center for HIV orphans and it changed my life forever."
Holden is on the board of directors for the Somaly Mam Foundation, which works to end sex trafficking. She also works with the nonprofit Home From Home (http://www.homefromhome.org.za), which helps HIV-infected children. Fans may follow Holden on Twitter (at)LaurieHolden.
Q. What is your favorite vacation destination?
A. Africa.
Q. What are some things you'd suggest to travelers going there for the first time?
A. I would definitely recommend going on a safari in Botswana. I went on my own a few years ago, and it was one of the most incredible experiences in all of my life. While you are there, you must also experience Victoria Falls. The best way to see it is go with a guide in one of those air-power gliders over the falls, but this is only for the real adventurer, because it's not for the faint of heart. In South Africa, I recommend spending a couple of weeks in Cape Town, which has much to offer for the travel enthusiast. Table Mountain and Clifton Beach are at the top of the must-do list. Visiting the townships is essential while you're there to really understand the history of this part of the world. It's a land of extremes. Some of the kindest and bravest people I have ever met live in these communities. For sightseeing and relaxation, road trips along the southern tip and up along the Garden Route are absolutely stunning. And weekend getaways to the vineyards of Stellenbosch are an absolute must!
Q. What untapped destination should people know about?
A. Ha Long Bay, Vietnam. The boat river cruise is (to die for)!
Q. What was the first trip you took as a child?
A. It was to the island of Malta. My family relocated there for six months and it was hands down one of the most amazing times of my life.
Q. What's the most important thing you've learned from your travels?
A. That I am highly adaptable in any situation. I also thrive when I am traveling on my own, and I have no fear about going anywhere by myself for any length of time.
Q. Where are your favorite weekend getaways?
A. Grove Park Inn (http://www.groveparkinn.com/) in Asheville, N.C. Beach getaways and the Wentworth Mansion (http://www.wentworthmansion.com) in Charleston, N.C. On the West Coast, I love the San Ysidro Ranch (http://www.sanysidroranch.com/) in Santa Barbara.
Q. What are your favorite hotels?
A. St Regis (http://stregis.starwoodhotels.com/), Relais and Chateaux (http://www.relaischateaux.com), the Peninsula (http://www.peninsula.com) and the Ritz-Carlton (http://www.ritzcarlton.com).
Q. What are your five favorite cities?
A. New York, London, Rome, San Francisco and Paris.
Q. Where have you traveled to that most reminded you of home?

MADISON, WI (WTAQ) – A federal judge in Madison has overturned Wisconsin's ban on same-sex marriage.
On Friday, U.S. District Judge Barbara Crabb called the 2006 law unconstitutional. In her ruling, Crabb didn't make it clear whether gay marriages could begin right away.
Wisconsin Attorney General J.B. Van Hollen, who already was ready to appeal the decision, filed another motion for an emergency stay of the ruling. Van Hollen cited a similar case in Utah where a stay was granted.
Van Hollen believes the U.S. Supreme Court will eventually decide this issue, and he's concerned about the confusion and the ability to issue marriage licenses that may or may not be recognized when the court decisions are final.
That motion was filed early Friday evening, but the U.S. District Court has yet to respond. Meantime, Milwaukee and Dane County clerks were staying open late Friday to issue marriage licenses to same-sex couples.
The suit was brought by the American Civil Liberties Union on behalf of 8 same-sex couples.
Wisconsin becomes the 27th state were same-sex couple can marry under law, or a judge has struck down laws to ban same-sex marriage.
Governor Scott Walker's press secretary Laurel Patrick issued this statement:
"It is correct for the Attorney General, on this or any other issue, to defend the constitution of the state of Wisconsin, especially in a case where the people voted to amend it."
Walker's potential Democratic challenger Mary Burke put out this statement Friday:
"Today is a great day for Wisconsin and committed couples who love each other across the state. Every loving couple should have the freedom to marry whomever they choose, and the fact that this freedom is now available in Wisconsin is something we all can and should be proud of."
Freedom to Marry president Evan Wolfson issued this statement after the ruling:
"Today's decision out of Wisconsin marks the twentieth consecutive ruling by a federal or state judge since last year that a discriminatory state marriage ban is unconstitutional. Across the country, the courts agree: same-sex couples and their families need the dignity of marriage, and anti-marriage laws are indefensible. With over 70 marriage cases now making their way through the courts, today's decision in Wisconsin underscores that all of America is ready for the freedom to marry. It's time now for the Supreme Court to bring resolution nationwide."

Sabathia a Brewer
ESPN reports that, in an attempt to piss on our parade, the Milwaukee Brewers have acquired C.C. Sabathia from the Indians for a slew of minor leaguers and 1/100th of the soul of every Brewers fan.
As Colin would point out, Sabathia will start perhaps 14 more games this season. Without looking at the numbers, I'd assume that, in those 14 games, C.C. might be able to win perhaps 3-5 more games than whomever he's replacing in the rotation - in this case, probably Seth McClung or Dave Bush.
The area where Sabathia becomes dangerous - at least, in my opinion - is in the post season, where starts get amplified and having two really good pitchers can carry you through a series far more easily than if you have one really good pitcher and a couple of average ones. That said, Milwaukee still has to get there, and while it appears that whomever finishes second in the NL Central is playoff bound, we can keep our fingers crossed and hope that a) that isn't the case and b) the Cubs retaliate with a big trade of their own.
I would have to surmise that A.J. Burnett has now sprung to the forefront of any Cubs trade talk. He very well might be the best option for Chicago, and I can't help but wonder if Hendry will step up his time table a bit and pull a deal within the next two weeks, rather than toward the end of July.
I'll run the numbers later tonight...
...but I think 2-3 wins is probably more correct, and even that might be highsiding it.
That was actually more my
That was actually more my original guesstimation, but I gave him some extra credit.
As was pointed out, this only matters if they make the playoffs.
The good news is that if the Cubs make them, along with the Brewers, they could not face one another in a short series in the first round.

David M. Rosenthal's white-knuckle thriller starts with a bang: a single shot, aimed at a lone deer, that hits and kills a young woman. The hunter, John Moon, watches her die before discovering a box of money near her body. In a desperate panic, he takes the cash — hiring a low-rent lawyer to fight his wife's divorce suit — and attempts to cover up the killing. But when he discovers that the money belonged to a group of hardened criminals, the hunter becomes the hunted in this tense cat-and-mouse struggle in the backwoods of West Virginia.

2013 Guide Analysis: "Set for a world premiere at Berlinale, this crime drama in the forest wilderness was originally slated to have a rising young star named Michael Fassbender in the lead role back in its earliest incarnations in 2009. He bowed out and was replaced by the older, but just as talented Sam Rockwell who sports a rugged look for this drama from documentarian and cinematographer David M. Rosenthal.
Based on the novel by Matthew F. Jones, Rockwell plays a down on his luck hunter who loses his family farm. On one clandestine mission to earn money poaching big game, he stumbles upon a hidden campsite full of drugs and cash - in the process accidentally killing a teenage girl. He makes off with the loot and keeps quiet about what happened, but the money's owners have other ideas and he's soon on the run.
It's an immediately promising and very "A Simple Plan"-esque looking film. The casting is excellent, such as those listed above, plus the likes of Kelly Reilly and Ophelia Lovibond in supporting roles. No distributor is currently set, but a bunch of recently released photos are remarkable looking enough that I'm sure several of them are already in touch with the filmmakers about trying to secure the rights."

Running NET SDK under Linux/Mono
I have just spent a nice morning trying to get NET SDK working under Linux (CentOs 5/6)/Mono(2.10.8)
There were some snags along the way but finally it worked. I'd like to share my experience in case someone else tries the same.
First of all. Don't use app.config/web.config to configure Couchbase client.
I will give an error (see https://github.com/enyim/EnyimMemcached/issues/57)
Rather than that use:
var cf = new CouchbaseClientConfiguration();
cf.Urls.Add(new Uri("http://127.0.0.1:8091/pools/default"));
var c = new CouchbaseClient(cf);
and you'll be fine.
Second step: make sure you use the same runtime version for couchbase/enyim as your program.
Couchbase downloads provide 3.5, so you should compile with gmcs rather than dmcs.
If you really need dmcs you'll have to recompile the NET SDK from source (quite easy).
* Tip for Couchbase - it'd greatly help mono users if you provided the SDK compiled for the 4.0 runtime
Third problem lies in mono itself. There is now a bug in mono (https://bugzilla.xamarin.com/show_bug.cgi?id=4242) that affects JSON serialization/deserialization if your culture uses coma rather than dot for decimal point.
TO go around this problem set Thread.CurrentThread.CultureInfo or change you default culture (LANG=en_US prior to running mono).
Hope it helps you save some time :)
Hi Michal,
Thanks for sharing your experience!
When the 1.2 client is released (with server 1.2) it will be .NET 4.0. I'm going be releasing a patch to 1.1 soon and will look into including a 4.0 and 3.5 build with that.
I've had other requests to get the client working with Mono on Linux, so I will be looking into that in the weeks ahead.
-- John
I've just done similar, setup Couchbase 2.0beta and .NET Client SDK 1.2 beta with mono under Mac OS X. I want to share my experiences, too:
1) Using App.config is still broken (will give out "factory required" exception). Don't use it, but use the code-config approach given by the OP.
2) make sure to run mono 3.0 (which is beta currently). With mono 2.10.9 I get a "Missing method System.Net.ServicePoint.SetTcpKeepAlive" exception.
3) make sure you set your .NET profile to 4.0 in MonoDevelop, since the .NET Couchbase SDK 1.2 is in 4.0, too.
There is quite some work to be done for Couchbase 1.2 .NET SDK to work out-of-the-box with mono, but I am sure the couchbase developers will dedicate some love to it.
P.S: Great talk about couchbase at the monkeyspace conference which got me curious, and thanks for the free couchbase shirt ;)
Hi John, has 1.1 patch (for .net 3.5 apps) for 1.2 client been released ? if yes where can I find it ? I need a .net 3.5 bin release because of Sharepoint 2010 integration (with Couchbase) which doesn't support .net 4.0 in the same appdomain.
Thanks in advance,
PS: I need urgently take a decision about using Couchbase or directly memcached, THX
Hi Giuseppe.
Are you looking for a 3.5 build that's Mono compatible or that has the fixes from 1.2? The 1.1 release is 3.5, but does not have a number of bug fixes that are available in 1.2. Unfortuntaely, there are a number of 4.0 dependencies in the 1.2 client that would make a 3.5 release a challenge.
-- John
I've started developing using Couchbase 2.0 with .NET Client 1,2, The server runs on Ubuntu 12.04 LTS and works fine. I've verified it with a local php client and from a Windows 7 networked box using a .NET app using the 1.2 client. I had created the .NET test program so it would run under Mono. A very simply program fails on Linux when it's creating the CouchbaseClient(). this is with the mono dlls. The line using (var cbx = new CouchbaseClient()) fails.
I debugged with monodevelop on the Linux box. used a different App.config for the ip address). The problem on the Linux box appears to be Factory must be Defined. This is using the Enyim memcached dll (the mono version), so most likely needs a config setting according to error reports I've seen. The stack trace is:
Enyim.Caching.Configuration.FactoryElement`1[[Couchbase.Configuration.ICouchbasePerformanceMonitorFactory, Couchbase, Version=22.214.171.124, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=05e9c6b5a9ec94c2]].CreateInstance () in
Couchbase.Configuration.CouchbaseClientSection.Couchbase.Configuration.ICouchbaseClientConfiguration.CreatePerformanceMonitor () in
Couchbase.CouchbaseClient..ctor (pool={Couchbase.CouchbasePool}, configuration={Couchbase.Configuration.CouchbaseClientSection}) in
Couchbase.CouchbaseClient..ctor (configuration={Couchbase.Configuration.CouchbaseClientSection}, bucketName="", bucketPassword=(null)) in
Couchbase.CouchbaseClient..ctor (configuration={Couchbase.Configuration.CouchbaseClientSection}) in
Couchbase.CouchbaseClient..ctor () in
gvmake.Program.CreateCity (args={string[0]}) in /var/gv/gvmake/gv2/Main.cs:46
The Client 1.2 pdf has several settings for this but none seem to work. My Ubuntu App.Config is like this with better indentation.
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<section name="couchbase" type="Couchbase.Configuration.CouchbaseClientSection, Couchbase"/>
<add uri="http://127.0.0.1:8091/pools/"/>
The uri in the Windows app.config used pools/default but that makes no difference on Ubuntu. Do you have an example of a working app.config? Thanks!
David Bolton

DENVILLE, NJ – December 6, 2012 – Saint Clare's Health System again has received the American Heart Association/American Stroke Association's Get With The Guidelines® Stroke Gold Plus Quality Achievement Award. The award recognizes Saint Clare's commitment and success in implementing excellent care for stroke patients, according to evidence-based guidelines.
To receive the award, Saint Clare's Health System achieved 85 percent or higher adherence to all Get With The Guidelines-Stroke Quality Achievement indicators for two or more consecutive 12-month intervals and achieved 75 percent or higher compliance with six of 10 Get With The Guidelines-Stroke Quality Measures, which are reporting initiatives to measure quality of care.
These measures include aggressive use of medications, such as tPA, antithrombotics, anticoagulation therapy, DVT prophylaxis, cholesterol reducing drugs and smoking cessation, all aimed at reducing death and disability and improving the lives of stroke patients.
"With a stroke, time lost is brain lost. The Get With The Guidelines - Stroke Gold Plus Quality Achievement Award demonstrates that our staff is committed to providing care that has been shown in the scientific literature to quickly and efficiently treat stroke patients with evidence-based protocols," said Leslie D. Hirsch, President and Chief Executive Officer of Saint Clare's Health System.
The Stroke Centers at Saint Clare's Hospitals in Denville and Dover provide advanced medical teams that quickly diagnose strokes and promptly begin treatment, increasing the chances of recovery. The Stroke Centers' comprehensive system for rapid diagnosis and treatment of stroke patients includes a staff of specialized doctors, nurses and technologists ready to evaluate and treat strokes 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
"Saint Clare's Health System is to be commended for its commitment to implementing standards of care and protocols for treating stroke patients," said Lee H. Schwamm, M.D., chair of the Get With The Guidelines National Steering Committee and director of the TeleStroke and Acute Stroke Services at Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston. "The full implementation of acute care and secondary prevention recommendations and guidelines is a critical step in saving the lives and improving outcomes of stroke patients."
Get With The Guidelines–Stroke uses the "teachable moment," the time soon after a patient has had a stroke, when they are most likely to listen to and follow their healthcare professionals' guidance. Studies demonstrate that patients who are taught how to manage their risk factors while still in the hospital reduce their risk of a second heart attack or stroke.
Through Get With The Guidelines–Stroke, customized patient education materials are made available at the point of discharge, based on patients' individual risk profiles. The take-away materials are written in an easy-to-understand format and are available in English and Spanish. In addition, the Get With The Guidelines Patient Management Tool gives healthcare providers access to up-to-date cardiovascular and stroke science at the point of care.
"Saint Clare's is focused on continuously improving the quality of stroke care and implementing Get With The Guidelines–Stroke protocol, which is the gold standard of stroke care nationally. This is critical as the number of acute ischemic stroke is expected to grow over the next decade as the population continues to age." continued Hirsch.
According to the American Heart Association/American Stroke Association, stroke is the third leading cause of death in the United States and a leading cause of serious, long-term disability. On average, someone suffers a stroke every 45 seconds; someone dies of a stroke every three minutes; and 795,000 people suffer a new or recurrent stroke each year.

Kim Kardashian and Kanye West flew into John F. Kennedy International Airport from Brazil on Tuesday, February 12, 2013, cleared customs, and then boarded a connecting flight to Los Angeles without going through security, authorities confirm.
The Transportation Security Administration said that an American Airlines employee escorted two "celebrity passengers" through a "non-public area in order to provide expedited access to their domestic flight."
Officers learned of the security bypass and brought Kim and Kanye to the jetway to perform the security screening, the TSA said.
The airline employee "violated security protocols by permitting the travelers to by-pass the TSA security checkpoint," the agency said.
American Airlines confirmed that an employee escorted the couple to their connecting flight.
"This was a lapse in judgment by one of our employees. We're working closely with the TSA and speaking to the individuals involved to better understand what happened," American Airlines said in a statement.
The flight left an hour late. American Airlines said the delay was only partly due to the incident with Kim and Kanye.
"A number of connecting bags were late arriving to the aircraft," the airline's statement said.

This is to be expected as mandates across the states now start to take effect. "Creative" maneuvering by the insurance companies is going to delay, defer, or deny coverage for ABA as much as possible due to the effect on their bottom line. ABA costs money. A lot of money. Most families in states who have recently passes autism mandates already know this and are going broke providing ABA and other interventions to their children with autism.
This article is not surprising though. Insurance points at the schools and says, "This is a governmental, educational problem." The schools point at insurance providers and say, "This a medical problem and the insurance companies are responsible." Unfortunately, parents are left in the lurch.
Gamesmanship will be played full swing as the statistics of autism increase, mandates are put to the continued observance and execution test and providers try to manipulate their insured with lunatic requirements that realistically can't be met – such as is the case in Michigan.
Having lived in Michigan, I can attest to the shortage of providers and the long waiting lists for services. I can't imagine how families who qualify for the mandate will jump through the hoops that insurance providers are creating. It is sad as well as disconcerting, and I hope that some semblance of enforcement of plausible terms can be created.
Please click here to read the entire story...
"A state law requiring insurance companies and health plans to pay for treatments for children with autism goes into effect today, but autism advocates and parents say that while the new measure is a significant step, many families may get little, if any, help from the new statute anytime soon.
Michigan has far too few medical professionals who offer the specialized therapy autistic children require, they say, and some insurers appear to be setting conditions that could make autistic children and their families wait many months for help — if they get it at all.
In the meantime, families with autistic children either go without the treatment that can help their sons and daughters learn to function, or teeter on the brink of financial ruin…"

A Nurse Delivered My Baby!
It was four days past my due date. I was anxious.
Angela Chee: Since it is my second child, everyone thought I would be early. For days, I thought I was going into labor, then the contractions went away. Finally, in the middle of the night, they came for real, and they came on strong -- right away, about four to five minutes apart.
We got to the hospital, and after a few hours, I was fully dilated and effaced and ready to push. But the nurse said, "We are still waiting for the doctor; she should be here any minute."
I was trying to stay calm and not get annoyed, because I was ready and I could feel the pressure and urge to push. Then the nurse couldn't find the baby's heartbeat. She looked under the blanket and rushed out the door. Next thing I know, seven nurses had rushed in -- the baby's head was already out! What?
I didn't know exactly what was going on. Is she all right? It all happened so fast. Everyone was rushing around me and reassuring me. Then they said push, and out came the baby. My husband was supposed to catch the baby, but there wasn't enough time for that.
I was a little concerned, but fortunately, there were no complications, and the baby was fine. Then the doctor came and finished the delivery, but by that time, my new baby girl was already in my arms. She was a healthy 9 pound, 8 ounce bundle of joy. Can you believe it? Almost 10 pounds -- yikes. It was a big surprise, considering my first was less than 7 pounds. I guess all those contractions a week before helped move the baby along.
Overall, it was a little stressful, but I guess I should be grateful for an easy delivery, and that the nurse was there to help.
|Angela Chee is a television host, voice-over artist and creator of TheZenMom.com as a resource for other moms because motherhood isn't always so zen. She is a first time mom.
"We're waiting for the doctor…" Wha!?! It's a BABY! I don't think babies are in the habit of waiting for a doctor's convenience. This really encapsulates what, in my opinion, is the over-medicalization of natural human functions.
That being said, congratulations on a safe delivery and a beloved addition to your family!
I had almost the same situation. My doctor was doing an emergency C-section. The nurse told me, close your legs, lay on your side and don't sneeze.
I should have had my son around 12pm and he came at 1:30 since my doctor didn't get out until then.
It is kinda annoying. I had to endure another hour of unnecessary labor. I know it wasn't the other Mom's fault but ugh!
This happened to a friend of mine and her doctor had to refund some of the money she paid for his services! Something to look into!
