Poison Prevention Week 2014
March 16-24 is Poison Prevention Week this year, and an important opportunity to remind health officials and consumers about the resources provided by the National Poison Prevention Program and Hotline (1-800-222-1222). The National Poison Control Program is a program of the Health Resource Services Administration (HRSA). Programs include:
- Poison centers serving all states, Puerto Rico, the District of Columbia, Guam, the Federated States of Micronesia and American Samoa.
- A single, national toll-free number (1-800-222-1222) that connects callers with the poison center serving their area.
- A nationwide media campaign to educate the public and health care providers about poison prevention, poison center services and the 1-800 number.
- Programs to support the enhancement and improvement of poison education, prevention and treatment.
- Partnership development with other federal agencies and national organizations to advance poison prevention awareness.
- Development of uniform patient management guidelines so that poison centers can provide uniform treatment recommendations.
- Improvement of data collection systems and toxic exposure surveillance for enhanced capability to capture national poisoning data.
- Multilingual interpreter service in 161 languages to anyone who calls the 1-800 number.

Colon Cancer Incidence Rates Decreasing Steeply in Older Americans
Colon cancer incidence rates have dropped 30 percent in the United States in the last 10 years among adults 50 and older because of the widespread use of colonoscopies, according to a new study in CA: A Cancer Journal for Clinicians. The largest decrease has been in people over age 65. Colonoscopy use has almost tripled among adults ages 50-75, from 19 percent in 2000 to 55 percent in 2010. The study relied on data from the National Cancer Institute's Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) program and the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's National Program of Cancer Registries.
The "larger declines among Medicare-eligible seniors likely reflect higher rates of screening because of universal insurance coverage," according to the study authors. Mortality rates from colon cancer have also declined most rapidly within the past decade. From 2001 to 2010, death rates from colon cancer decreased by approximately 3 percent per year in both men and women, compared with declines of approximately 2 percent per year during the 1990s. The data is being released as the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services launches a nationwide effort to increase colorectal cancer screening rates to 80 percent by 2018. Read more on cancer.
DOT Proposed Rules on Electronic Log Books for Large and Bus Drivers to Help Reduce Fatalities and Injuries
The U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) has announced a proposal to require interstate commercial truck and bus companies to use Electronic Logging Devices (ELDs) in their vehicles to improve compliance with the safety rules that govern the number of hours a driver can work. According to DOT, the proposed rule will ultimately reduce hours-of-service violations by making it more difficult for drivers to misrepresent their time on logbooks and—significantly—help reduce crashes by fatigued drivers and prevent approximately 20 fatalities and 434 injuries each year, for an annual safety benefit of $394.8 million. Impaired driving, including fatigue, was a factor in more than 12 percent of the 129,120 total crashes that involved large trucks or buses in 2012. Read more on injury prevention.

Robert Wood Johnson and CDC Foundations Launch New Project on Using Law and Policies to Help People Make Healthier Choices
The Robert Wood Johnson and CDC Foundations have announced the launch of a new project to advance discussion about how laws and policies can assist people in making healthier choices. Subject matter experts will work with federal partners to develop 10 to 15 evidence-based reports during the next three years to highlight laws and policies related to specific topic areas within the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) Healthy People 2020 initiative. Healthy People 2020 is a set of goals and objectives with 10-year targets designed to guide national health promotion and disease prevention efforts aimed at improving the health of all people in the United States.
The new project, which will be led by the Office of Disease Prevention and Health Promotion (ODPHP) at HHS, will provide practical information to public health officials and associations; health-related industries; legal practitioners; non-profit organizations; policymakers; and individuals about the use of law and policy to address health factors:
- ODPHP will provide leadership and support for the development of the reports.
- CDC will provide technical guidance on the development of specific reports and collaborate with public health partners and communities to promote knowledge and understanding of the reports.
- RWJF will provide public health law and policy expertise.
- The CDC Foundation will manage administration and implementation of the project and amplify the results to stakeholders through communications efforts.
"The Robert Wood Johnson Foundation believes that law and policy are important levers for building a culture of health in our nation," said Risa Lavizzo-Mourey, MD, president and CEO of the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation. "We're pleased to collaborate with leaders in public health and government to focus attention on policies based on the best science to help achieve the national health goals set out in Healthy People 2020—strategies that all states and communities can use to help people live healthier lives."

FDA Approves Marketing of First Migraine Prevention Device
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has authorized the marketing of the first device designed to stop migraine headaches before they happen. The preventative treatment is a small, portable prescription device that uses an electrical current to stimulate branches of the trigeminal nerve, which has been associated with migraine headaches. An estimated 10 percent of people suffer from migraines, which if untreated can last from four to 72 hours and lead to nausea, vomiting and sensitivity to light and sound. In a release, Christy Foreman, director of the Office of Device Evaluation at the FDA's Center for Devices and Radiological Health, said Cefaly "may help patients who cannot tolerate current migraine medications for preventing migraines or treating attacks." Read more on technology.
HHS: 4.2 Million Have Signed Up for Coverage Under the Affordable Care Act
Just a few weeks before the final deadline of March 31, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) has announced that more than 4.2 million people have enrolled in the Health Insurance Marketplace under the Affordable Care Act. Approximately 943,000 enrolled in February. Of the 4,242,300 who have enrolled:
- 55 percent are female and 45 percent are male;
- 31 percent are age 34 and under;
- 25 percent are between the ages of 18 and 34;
- 63 percent selected a Silver plan (up one percentage point over the prior reporting period), while 18 percent selected a Bronze plan (down one point)
- 83 percent selected a plan and are eligible to receive Financial Assistance (up one point)

FDA Proposes New 'Nutrition Facts' Food Labels
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has put forth a new proposed Nutrition Facts label for packaged foods. The updated design would reflect scientific information not available when the current label was designed two decades ago. For example, it would replace out-of-date serving sizes and feature a design that highlights key parts of the label, such as calories and serving sizes. "For 20 years consumers have come to rely on the iconic nutrition label to help them make healthier food choices," said FDA Commissioner Margaret A. Hamburg, MD. "To remain relevant, the FDA's newly proposed Nutrition Facts label incorporates the latest in nutrition science as more has been learned about the connection between what we eat and the development of serious chronic diseases impacting millions of Americans."

Study: One in Five U.S. Health Facilities Don't Provide Hand Sanitizer Everywhere Needed
One in five U.S. health facilities don't make hand sanitizer available everywhere necessary, needlessly increasing the risk for health-care associated infections, according to a new study in the American Journal of Infection Control. In addition, approximately half of the hospitals, ambulatory care facilities and long-term care facilities included in their budgets funds for proper hand hygiene training. The study examine compliance with the World Health Organization's hand hygiene guidelines at 168 facilities in 42 states and Puerto Rico. "When hospitals don't focus heavily on hand hygiene, that puts patients at unnecessary risk for preventable health care-associated infections," said by Laurie Conway, RN, MS, CIC, PhD student at Columbia Nursing, in a release. "The tone for compliance with infection control guidelines is set at the highest levels of management, and our study also found that executives aren't always doing all that they can to send a clear message that preventing infections is a priority." Read more on infectious disease.
CDC Foundation Expands Safe Injection Campaign
The CDC Foundation and Eli Lilly are partnering to expand the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's (CDC) Safe Injection Practices Coalition—a safety awareness campaign that provides information for health providers and patients. According to CDC data, more than 150,000 patients have been notified of potential exposure to hepatitis and HIV because of unsafe injection practices in U.S. health care settings since 2001, and CDC researchers have found that medical injections are an overlooked source of infections and outbreaks. Planned actives of the partnership include:
- Expand the One & Only Campaign to new audiences such as individual and group-owned physician practices
- Educate health care providers through new and enhanced training and communication materials to address emerging issues
- Improve the Safe Injection Practices Coalition website and social media platforms to share resources and toolkits with new audiences
- Engage new and existing Safe Injection Practices Coalition partners

A New Infographic for the National Prevention Strategy
A new infographic from the Office of the U.S. Surgeon General highlights collaborations within the federal government and between the health and healthcare sectors to help improve prevention outreach. These efforts are part of the cross sector National Prevention Strategy launched by the office several years ago.
Current examples of collaboration include Million Hearts, an initiative of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services to prevent one million heart attacks by 2017. The initiative includes a commitment by close to 150 large private medical practices in the United States to get hypertension control rates above 80 percent in their communities.

IOM Report: More Evidence-Based Practices Needed to Help Treat and Prevent Psychological Disorders among Service Members and Families
Between 2000 and 2011, almost 1 million service members or former service members were diagnosed with at least one psychological disorder either during or after deployment, according to recent research by the Institute of Medicine (IOM). As a follow up, the U.S. Department of Defense (DOD) asked the IOM to evaluate the department's efforts to prevent psychological disorders among active-duty service members and their families. That report was recently released.
The report includes recommendations on how the DOD can improve care.
Finding 1: DOD has implemented numerous resilience and prevention programs for service members and their families, but it faces a number of challenges, including an insufficient evidence base to support its interventions and a lack of systematic evaluation and performance measures.
Recommendation 1: By targeting resources to develop the evidence base and disseminate that evidence, DOD's prevention efforts can be both more effective and cost effective.
Finding 2: There is a need for DOD to improve approaches for identifying and intervening with service members and their members who may already have or may be at risk for developing a psychological disorder.
Recommendation 2: DOD should dedicate funding, staffing and logistical support for data analysis and evaluation to support performance monitoring of programs for accountability and continuous improvement.
Finding 3: Screening, assessment and treatment approaches for psychological health problems are not always implemented between and within the DOD and the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) in a consistent manner or aligned with the evidence base, which threatens the delivery of high-quality care and hampers evaluation efforts.
Recommendation 3:
- There are opportunities to improve processes of training and evaluating clinicians, including the incorporation of continuing education and supervision; standardized periodic evaluation; and a greater emphasis on coordination and interdisciplinarity.
- The DOD and VA should invest in research to determine the efficacy of treatments that do not have a strong evidence base.
- Both departments should conduct systematic assessments to determine whether screening and treatment interventions are being implemented according to clinical guidelines and departmental policy.
- Accessible inter-department data systems should be developed to assess treatment outcomes, variations among treatment facilities and barriers to the use of evidence-based treatment.

HHS, Heart Disease Organizations Join Forces to Vastly Reduce Premature Death Linked to Heart Conditions by 2025
Leaders from the World Heart Federation , the American Heart Association, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, and the American College of Cardiology are joining together to help cut premature mortality from cardiovascular disease by at least 25 percent by 2025. Key strategies will include secondary prevention efforts for people who have already experienced a heart incident, or have established heart disease, as well as primary prevention strategies in the United States and around the world. "Heart disease can touch anyone, no matter where you live," said Nancy Brown, chief executive officer of the American Heart Association. "It will take the collective efforts of everyone from community leaders to healthcare professionals, educators and business leaders to stop this No. 1 killer at the national and global level..."

New Guidelines for Stroke Risk, Prevention in Women
The American Heart Association/American Stroke Association has published the first ever set of guidelines dedicated to stroke risk and prevention in women. The 86-page document appears in the journal Stroke and address risk factors distinct to women, including pregnancy, oral contraceptives, menopause and hormone replacement. It also covers factors that affect women more than men, including atrial fibrillation and migraine with aura. "We reviewed a large body of research to be able to summarize our current understanding of stroke risk and stroke prevention in women, information that is critically important for care providers and researchers in the field," according to Judith Lichtman, MD, associate professor at the Yale School of Public Health and co-author of the study. "The guidelines are also important to empower women and their families to better understand their risk for stroke and be aware of ways they can minimize their likelihood of having a one." Strokes are the third-leading cause of death among women in the United States. Read more on strokes.
Study: Indicators of Potential Heart Disease as Early as Age 18
Indicators of potential heart disease can be seen as early as age 18, according to a long-term study recently published in the Journal of the American Medical Association. Researchers found that elevated blood pressure at that age, as well as found distinct blood pressure patterns from ages 18-55, indicate people at high risk for calcification of coronary arteries by middle age. "This shows that your blood pressure in young adulthood can impact your risk for heart disease later in life," said Norrina Allen, PhD, lead study author and assistant professor of Preventive Medicine at Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine, in a release. "We can't wait until middle age to address it. If we can prevent their blood pressure from increasing earlier in life we can reduce their risk of future heart attacks and stroke." Approximately one in three U.S. adults have hypertension. Read more on prevention.
What Will It Really Take to Improve the Nation's Health?
"Building a culture of health means recognizing that while Americans' economic, geographic, or social circumstances may differ, we all aspire to lead the best lives that we can," wrote Robert Wood Johnson Foundation president and CEO Risa Lavizzo-Mourrey, MD, MBA in her 2014 President's Message, released earlier this week. Laying out the plans for achieving those goals, Lavizzo-Mourrey added: "for the Foundation, it also means informing the dialogue and building demand for health by pursuing new partnerships, creating new networks to build momentum, and standing on the shoulders of others also striving to make America a healthier nation."
The Foundation's wide-ranging plans to "inform the dialogue" included a plenary talk by Mark McClellan, co-chair of the RWJF Commission to Build a Healthier America, and a former head of both the Food and Drug Administration and the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services. McClellan spoke at the AcademyHealth National Health Policy Conference in Washington, D.C., last week — less than a month after the release of the Commission's 2014 report.
"To become healthier and reduce the growth of public and private spending on medical care, we must create a seismic shift in how we approach health and the actions we take," said McClellan, "As a country, we need to expand our focus to address how to stay healthy in the first place."
McClellan told a very attentive audience that critical needed changes include:
- Improve opportunities [for people] to make healthy decisions where we live, learn, work and play
- Improve access to a good education, jobs and health care
- Work across sectors, collaborating to improve the health of all Americans
- Make investing in America's youngest children a high priority
- Fundamentally change how we revitalize neighborhoods, fully integrating health into community development
- Adopt new health "vital signs" to assess non-medical indicators for health such as jobs, income, housing, transportation and access to healthy food.
- Create incentives tied to reimbursement for health professionals and health care institutions to address non-medical factors that affect health.
McClellan cited two examples of organizations that are addressing issues beyond healthcare in order to improve health:
- Health Leads, a national health care organization, enables physicians and other health professionals to systematically screen patients for food, heat, and other basic resources that patients need to be healthy and "prescribe" these resources for patients.
- The Medical-Legal Partnership program removes legal barriers that impede health for low-income populations by integrating legal professionals into the care team. These volunteers intervene with landlords, social service agencies, and others to address health-harming conditions ranging from lack of utilities to bedbugs to mold in rental properties.

Obese Children More Susceptible to Air Pollution-Related Asthma
Obese children are more susceptible to air pollution-related asthma, according to a new study in the journal Environmental Research. Researchers followed the health of 311 children, ages 5 and 6, in predominantly Dominican and African-American neighborhoods of New York City, finding that high exposure to polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH)—a family of air pollutants—was only associated with asthma among obese children The study determined that obese children exposed to the PAH chemicals 1-methylphenanthrene and 9- methylphenanthrene were two to three times more likely to have asthma. PAHs are emitted by vehicles, cigarette smoke, cooking, incense, burning candles and various other indoor sources. Two possible explanations for the disparity are that obese children tend to be less active, so are more likely to be exposed to indoors sources of PAH, and that they may breathe more rapidly than children of healthier weights Better understanding of the risk factors opens the door to more targeted interventions. "These findings suggest that we may be able to bring down childhood asthma rates by curbing indoor, as well as outdoor, air pollution and by implementing age-appropriate diet and exercise programs," said senior author Rachel Miller, MD, professor of medicine (in pediatrics) and environmental health sciences, and co-deputy director of the Columbia Center for Children's Environmental Health at the Mailman School of Public Health.

Report: Antibiotics Dangerous to Humans Still Used in Livestock
Despite knowing their risk to humans, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) continues to allow the use of certain antibiotics as additives in animal feed and water, according to a new report from the Natural Resources Defense Council based on documents acquired under the Freedom of Information Act. In a review from 2001 to 2010 the FDA concluded that 30 such antibiotics posed a significant risk of exposing people to antibiotic- resistance bacteria. The drugs were approved for "non-therapeutic" use in farm animals, such as preventing disease or promoting growth of the animals, instead of treating specific illnesses. In December the FDA announced its intention to combat the spread of antibacterial resistance by prohibiting the use of medically important antimicrobials in food animals for food production purposes, while also adding veterinary oversight to therapeutic use of the drugs in animals. Read more on food safety.
Residents of Public Housing Developments, Rental Assistance Units See Significant Gap in Oral Health Care
People who live in public housing developments and rental assistance units are less likely to have routine preventive dental care and more likely to have suffered serious oral health issues related to tooth loss, according to a new study in The Journal of Urban Health. The study was conducted by the Partners in Health and Housing Prevention Research Center (PHH-PRC) at the Boston University School of Public Health. The researchers looked at four indicators for people living in Boston's publicly supported housing: having had a dental visit in the last year, having had a dental cleaning in the last year, having had six or more teeth extracted, and having dental insurance. They found that people in public housing, despite being as likely to have had a dental visit in the past year, were significantly less likely to have had a cleaning. The gap in health care is especially serious for the seniors in this already vulnerable population: Compared to younger residents, seniors 65-75 years old were 30 times as likely to have had six or more teeth removed.

NewPublicHealth Q&A: John Auerbach and Cheryl Bartlett on the Massachusetts Prevention and Wellness Trust
The Massachusetts Prevention and Wellness Trust is a four-year, $60 million project designed to support prevention and health-promotion activities in the state. The first project of its kind in the United States will fund six to 12 collaborative initiatives, and partners on the initiative will include municipalities, community-based organizations, health care providers, regional agencies and health plans. Information on the Trust is detailed in a new report prepared by the Institute on Urban Health Research and Practice at Northeastern University and funded by the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation.
The vision behind the creation of the project is to give all Massachusetts residents the opportunity to live in communities that promote health, as well as seamless access to all community and clinical services needed to prevent and control chronic diseases. It was created because while there is access to health insurance and health care in Massachusetts, health costs continue to rise. The goals of the project include:
- Reducing the rate of the state's most costly preventable health conditions
- Reducing health disparities
- Increasing healthy behaviors
- Increasing the adoption of workplace wellness programs
- Developing a strong evidence base of effective prevention programs
In order to implement these goals, the Massachusetts Department of Public Health identified four priority areas: tobacco use, childhood asthma, hypertension and elder falls prevention—all of which should be considered closely when working to reduce health disparities and co-occurring mental health conditions in these areas.
A new infographic created for the Prevention and Wellness Trust's inauguration perfectly illustrates how community links work together to improve health under the principles of the Trust. For example, a diagnosis of hypertension would need a provider to prescribe medications, but the obesity and exercise needs that would also improve the condition for many patients requires input from other community entities, including:
- Classes in exercise, medication and stress reduction by community agencies
- Chronic disease self management classes and home visits for medication use instruction by a community agency
- A neighborhood policy that provides support for transportation changes to encourage walking or biking and zoning for healthy food stores
- A neighborhood policy that provides support for more accessible recreation options in parks and city centers for increased stress reduction
- Workplace policies that provide support for workplace wellness programs that help provide and encourage exercise, healthy foods and stress reduction
NewPublicHealth recently spoke with John Auerbach, a Professor at Northeastern University and the primary author of a report on the Trust, and Cheryl Bartlett, public health commissioner of Massachusetts and the lead person charged with its implementation.

Improved Prevention and Treatment Decrease U.S. Stroke Deaths
Stroke deaths in the United States have declined dramatically in the last few decades because of improved prevention and treatment, according to a scientific statement published in Stroke, published by the American Heart Association. "The decline in stroke deaths is one of the greatest public health achievements of the 20th and 21st centuries," said Daniel T. Lackland, DrPH, chair of the statement writing committee and professor of epidemiology at the Medical University of South Carolina, in Charleston, S.C. "The decline is real, not a statistical fluke or the result of more people dying of lung disease, the third leading cause of death," said Lackland, who added that "although all groups showed improvement, there are still great racial and geographic disparities with stroke risks as well many people having strokes at young ages [and] we need to keep doing what works and to better target these programs to groups at higher risk." Public health efforts that have helped lower stroke rates include hypertension control that started in the 1970s; smoking cessation programs; improved control of diabetes and high cholesterol levels; and improved stroke treatment options. Read more on prevention.
NHTSA Announces New Safety Efforts for Older Drivers
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) has announced a new strategic plan to help ensure the safety of older drivers and passengers. In 2012, according to NHTSA, more than 5,560 people over the age of 65 died, and 214,000 were injured in motor vehicle crashes. That's a three percent increase in the number of fatalities and a 16 percent increase in the number of injuries from the previous year. In addition, since 2003 the population of older adults—defined as age 65 and older—has increased by 20 percent and the number of licensed older drivers increased by 21 percent, to 35 million licensed older drivers in 2012.
NHTSA has several new efforts in place to reduce these deaths and injuries:
- The agency is researching advanced vehicle technologies, including vehicle-to-vehicle communications, collision avoidance and crashworthiness that could help reduce the risk of death or injury to older occupants in the event of a crash. It is also considering adding a "silver" rating system, meaning cars with certain technologies might be preferable for older drivers.
- NHTSA will conduct studies to better understand the effects of age-related medical conditions, including dementia.
- NHTSA will continue public education efforts on functional changes that can impact driving, including vision, strength, flexibility and cognition.

Poll: Parents Concerned Over Lack of Physical Activity During School Day
A recent poll conducted by the Harvard School of Public Health, National Public Radio and the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation found that many parents are concerned about inadequate levels of physical education at schools. More than 1,300 parents of public school students were polled on a range of issues concerning education and health in the their child's school, and one in four parents (25 percent) said their child's school gives too little emphasis to physical education, compared with one in seven who say the same thing about reading and writing (14 percent) or math (15 percent). About three in 10 parents (28 percent) give a low grade (C, D or F) to their child's school on providing enough time for physical education, while almost seven in 10 parents (68 percent) report that their child's school does not provide daily physical education classes, a recommendation included in U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention guidelines for schools. "In a period with a significant public debate about the content of educational reform, it is significant that many parents feel that more physical education is needed in the schools," said Robert Blendon, ScD, Richard L. Menschel professor of Health Policy and Political Analysis at Harvard. Read more on education.

I don't even think right now as it stands Canada is in the top 3 teams. US,Swe and rus in no particular order.And that's only because those teams seem to be gelling a bet better right now. Not to say Canada wont turn it on because they do have the talent to win it all but don't sell any of the other teams I mentioned short.
And how is it if an American states that team Canada should be playing a lot better when they are not ridiculous? With all the hype team Canada has gotten even before the Olympics started you would of thought that they already won the gold. And you can say that isn't true all you want but it is. And if anyone is taking what some people on the HF boards has stated for fact then I have nothing more to say. HF boards are well known for idiocy and nothing against anyone on here that posts there. But it's either 1 extreme or the other it seems on that site.
Of course HF boards is for idiocy as per your opinion, unfortunately it doesn't change a thing I have read coming from American's.
As for an American stating Canada should be playing better, it really has no merit on how we feel. We haven't lost a game, we have let in the least amount of goals in the tournament (oh but of course the conspiracies of who we played and how the teams were picked) and we are still undefeated, we are happy where we are. If USA beats us or Swiss then yes, we are not happy. Until then just worry about how American's performance should feel, not Canadians performance.
It also doesn't matter to us Canadians what kind of hype the American sports media paints on us in terms of hype, every country has one goal in these games and that is to win Gold. We ice the top players in the world, which Canada is known for producing, this is not a knock on USA because they develop and ice great players as well.
At the end of the day, it's a win win situation for us because we get to watch the most talented players play against each other. I just hate coming into this thread and seeing an American talk about how bad Canada is doing, and reminding us we had 'easier' competition.

HOPKINTON, MA -- (Marketwire) -- 01/10/13 -- Hy9 (http://www.hy9.com), the leading provider of point-of-use, high purity hydrogen generation products for fuel cells, and Sankosha Corporation, the leading provider of communications systems and enclosures for the telecommunications industry, today announced their agreement to collaborate to develop the Asian market for reformer based fuel cell power systems which operate on readily available methanol as fuel.
Masayoshi Ito, President of Sankosha Corporation, stated, "Our partnership with Hy9 Corporation creates a strong team in Asia where hydrogen generation systems are quickly becoming the preferred option to on-site hydrogen storage tanks. Hy9 is the clear leader in this field and Sankosha is excited to begin this new business together."
Gary Clarke, Hy9's President and CEO, said, "Sankosha has been serving the telecom and railway markets in Japan, Taiwan and Korea for over 80 years. Their knowledge of telecommunication customer requirements and their product and service offerings are an excellent complement to Hy9's HGS-M series hydrogen generator in providing a solution to carriers' need for backup power systems other than a diesel generator. Hy9 looks forward to working together to grow and strengthen our partnership."
Hy9 and Sankosha will work together to integrate fuel cell stationary power systems with Hy9's HGS on-site hydrogen generators and enclosures for turnkey backup power systems suitable for Asian markets including dense urban areas and rooftop installations. The fuel processor, or reformer, converts a liquid fuel, in this case methanol and water, into hydrogen for use with fuel cell power systems.

With over 10 years of experience, Hy9 partners and clients benefit from high reliability and high performance. Hy9 - Making Hydrogen Pure and Simple.

Shure's Reason Why
LEGENDARY ROCKERS DALTREY, TOWNSEND REVEAL THE âREASON WHYâ? THEY USE SHURE MICROPHONES
NILES, IL, January 15, 2009 â Roger Daltrey and Pete Townsend, founding members of legendary British rock band The Who, have used Shure microphones onstage for more than 40 years. Their energetic live shows are often highlighted by Daltrey swinging his microphone â a standard Shure SM58® â over his head in wide arcs. Now, the rockers famous for punishing their equipment explain their loyalty to the microphones that have been taking it for so long in the new Shure âReason Whyâ? advertising campaign.
The band is just one of the artists appearing in the campaign, which features performers talking candidly about why they have remained faithful to Shure microphones throughout their careers. Other performers appearing in the series include Maroon 5, Brad Paisley, G. Love, Martina McBride, and The Black Crowes. Each ad also promotes the artistâs latest album release, concert tour, and website.
âPerformers all over the world start with Shure and then stay with Shure throughout their careers,â? said Terri Hartman, Shureâs Director of Global Brand Communications. âMany of them say that they wonât walk onstage unless thereâs a Shure microphone waiting for them. Weâre thrilled to be able to share their stories with aspiring performers worldwide.â?
The ads focus on a number of different Shure microphones, including the BETA series, the SM58® and SM57, and various wireless models. The ads are appearing in several different publications that appeal to entry level and working musicians.

by Dan JohnsonJockey Terry Thompson suffered a broken leg June 29 during a three-horse spill in the second race at Prairie Meadows.The accident occurred entering the far turn. Soriano Cat, ridden by Kelly Murray, was on the lead when he broke a leg and plummeted to the ground. Thompson was right behind on Brilliant Beau, who tripped over the fallen horse and sent Thompson crashing to the ground. Then, Precious Builder, ridden by R.D. Williams, was unable to avoid the pileup and also tripped."It was a chain reaction," Williams said.Williams and Murray were shaken up but remained at the track. Brilliant Beau and Precocious Builder were uninjured, but Soriano Cat's was euthanized.Murray said his horse broke down without warning. He was sent tumbling to the ground, and things started spinning chaotically. "It's like being a towel in a dryer," Murray said. "You don't know which way things are going to go. I didn't have any major impacts, but I felt all three horses go over me. Terry went down, and I felt his horse go over me, and then R.D.'s did the same thing."Thompson broke his right leg just above his kneecap and was taken to Mercy Medical Center. The impact was so great that Murray said Thompson's boot was nearly ripped off his leg."Terry and I were side-by-side and Kelly's horse fell out a little bit," jockey Perry Compton said. "My horse moved out a little bit, but Terry couldn't avoid him." Thompson, who grew up in Council Bluffs, Iowa, and lives in Ankeny, Iowa, was the leading rider at Prairie Meadows' Thoroughbred-only meet for the past four years. His Prairie Meadows records include most wins in a year--119 in 2002--and most wins in stakes races at 32.Thompson's injury came just as he was attracting national attention for riding Island Sand, one of the country's top 3-year-old fillies. Thompson rode Island Sand to victory in the Acorn Stakes (gr. I) and was second in the Kentucky Oaks (gr. I) and Fantasy Stakes (gr. II) and third in the Mother Goose Stakes (gr. I).Thompson was the second rider seriously injured in the past 10 days. Ken Shino broke four ribs, cracked a vertebrate, and had a collapsed lung in a June 19 fall.

Adding to 25
Holding off USC and 'LA for LB Zumwalt will be key
By Daniel Novinson

The math is difficult for any school: sign too few players and you're at a competitive disadvantage, sign too many players and you're in an NCAA and moral dilemma. For Stanford, of course, in addition to the normal question of how many recruiting battles the school will win, there's the very real question of Admissions, which could prevent would-be commits from enrolling...

Make Your Mark committee chair praises donors
Make Your Mark committee chair Neil Thomas was full of praise at yesterday's opening of the hospital.July 2, 2014 3:57am
Make Your Mark has exceeded its fundraising goal by more than $265,500, with delighted committee members announcing the total at yesterday's hospital opening.
Committee chairman Neil Thomas struggled to contain his emotions, clearly proud of everyone involved in the project.
He insisted on bringing the committee on stage and acknowledged the crowd as ''distinguished guests''.
''You are all our distinguished guests, because we wouldn't be here without your support,'' he said.
''I have tears in my eyes as I tell you I am standing tall, so proud to be a member of this community.
''Each donation has been extremely important to us, from the pensioners who donated $20 per fortnight from their pension, to the gold and platinum sponsors who contributed amounts of $50,000 and $100,000.
''I thank all of you.
''Make Your Mark began around two years ago, after we learned that the hospital had been allocated $2.4 million for equipment.
''We thought that was a good amount, but we wanted a great amount, so we decided to match it, dollar for dollar.
''Initially, $2.4 million seemed like a daunting amount, but we have been overwhelmed by the generosity of the communities.''
Mr Thomas then announced the funding amount raised by Make Your Mark to date: $2,665,529.31.
He encouraged people who are yet to donate to consider supporting Make Your Mark, which will continue to accept donations for the next 12 months, until stage two of the redevelopment has been completed.
