Despite the potential to realize billions of dollars annually in productivity savings and reduced travel expenses, federal agencies are dragging their heels on adopting teleconferencing as an alternative to traditional meetings.
President Barack Obama in November 2011 directed agencies to create plans for alternatives to government travel, including the use of videoconferencing. But despite his executive order, agencies are reluctant to fully embrace the technology and many federal employees still favor meetings in-person or over the phone, according to the "Fly Me to Your Room: Government Video Conferencing Collaboration Report," which the Telework Exchange released on Sept. 24.
The organization, on behalf of Blue Jeans Network, polled 128 federal government employees to examine how videoconferencing is used and what prevents its broader implementation. According to the report, videoconferencing can save feds 3.5 hours weekly in productivity, which translates to $8 billion in yearly productivity savings if just 50 percent of feds used videoconferencing. Greater videoconferencing would also cut agency travel budgets by a third, which amounts to roughly $4.95 billion in savings.
Despite the potential savings, the report revealed just 36 percent of federal employees use videoconferencing. In contrast, 90 percent at least monthly speak to colleagues outside of their office via phone, and 95 percent use email to communicate at least monthly.
Most feds who didn't think their agency is taking full advantage of videoconferencing said the lack of available tools (53 percent) and network/bandwidth limitations (46 percent) are the biggest obstacles to adoption.
Culture challenges (40 percent) ranked high on the list of hurdles as well. A January 2012 inspector general report highlighted how both employee and managerial attitudes matter when it comes to adoption. Low motivation for using videoconferencing was cited as one of Interior Department's obstacles to fully realize the benefits of videoconferencing. The Agriculture Department, on the other hand, put videoconferencing to use and successfully slashed travel spending by $47 million.
"Since the passage of the Telework Enhancement Act of 2010, we have seen an incredible change in how government is working together remotely," Cindy Auten, general manager at Telework Exchange, said in a statement. "We are riding the wave of mobility and must arm federal workers with the right tools to get the job done in the best way possible. Collaboration tools, like videoconferencing, allow coworkers to come together visually but without lengthy travel, or large amounts of time away from one's work station. It best enables cooperation and teamwork in these mobile times."
However, the act didn't include funding, and while many feds are eager to embrace the new technology, they simply don't have access to it, said Kate Lister, president at Global Workplace Analytics.
"Others have it, but have never been trained in how to use it," she said. "I know, because I've tried to video/teleconference with many of them. Some don't have access. Others don't know how to use it. And still others have problems getting past the firewall issues. Oftentimes, we'll resort to using their home or personal devices to make things work. That's just nuts."
The survey found nearly 85 percent think their agency's use of the technology will grow over the next five years. Reduced travel budget savings was mentioned as a key driver, perhaps not a surprise considering how a string of conferences within the past few years were deemed wasteful.
But ultimately, it comes down to agencies receiving the funding they need to advance their use of technology, Lister said.
"Without it, their hands are simply tied," she said. "I actually sat behind a GS-14 in a conference and watched him spend more than an hour building one PowerPoint slide. His computer was so slow, he'd type a word, then wait several minutes before the screen updated."

The Department of Commerce is revising its confidentiality agreement for statistical data survey respondents to reflect the fact that the Department of Homeland Security could see some of that data if it is captured by the Einstein system.

The government desperately needs younger talent to replace an aging workforce, and experts say that a freeze on hiring doesn't help.
The Department of Veterans Affairs will test an internally developed scheduling module at primary care sites nationwide to see if it's ready to service the entire agency.
Video conferencing should be independent of device, operating system, browser and hardware. It should work across all sorts, types and sizes in order to give the government the most flexibility in order to appeal to today's all volunteer digital natives.
The problem I have seen with VTC is that it is used when it shouldn't, and not when it should: I have attended VTC meetings with peers spread around the Air Force, and the process of getting anything done was limited because there was no way of recessing periodically, and discussing items in smaller groups one-on-one before making proposals for consideration by the whole group. Conversely, I have wasted countless time and TDY funding attending lectures that certain could have been easily televised, with any necessary Q&A either done at the end or by private email.
In regards to some of the excuses being made about why one can't save money by using DCO Connect, I say that is ridiculous. Bottom line is people need to stop making excuses and start executing a less wasteful way of doing business. As far as the definition goes, it's not video conferencing per say, although it does have webcam capabilities (like skyping), but a web based Adobe program which runs well with Microsoft applications. The webcam ability is o.k. but you would be taking bandwidth with you so it's better left with voice and PP presentation or uploaded video. As far as learning how to use this simple program, if you go to this website and follow the instructions, (there are video tutorials), within 30 minutes it will be as if you knew this program all along. https://www.dco.dod.mil. The only excuse for not curbing TDY is the fact that people won't make any money or they won't get to travel. People obtain jobs by learning how to do them. If they want to keep them, they should learn DCO. Too many excuses.
The biggest handicap in the DOD/Intel world is classified connectivity for VTCs. Some agencies have networks but there is no approved classified network VTC connections for contractors. It is typically handled on a project by project basis.The old ISDN VTC connections are obsolete and slow. Establishing need to know and clearances are also difficult.
My project team uses videoconferencing for almost all of our meetings since we are spread throughout the United States. It saves travel time and paper since we don't have to print things out and can share documents and video at the same time.

Sepsis remains a leading cause of death in the intensive care unit. With no specific sepsis therapies available, management currently relies on infection control and hemodynamic stabilization. Rapid diagnosis enabling early initiation of appropriate therapy is essential to maximize survival rates. Effective antimicrobial therapy should be started as soon as possible after diagnosis, with empirical choices based on likely pathogens, local microbiological patterns, and any recent antimicrobial therapy. At the same time, fluids and vasopressor agents should be commenced to restore and maintain hemodynamic stability and adequate tissue perfusion. No effective immunomodulatory therapies are available, but some candidates are undergoing clinical trials. Better techniques for characterization of the degree of sepsis response in individual patients are needed to help target such agents more appropriately as some patients may benefit from immunosuppressive agents while others may require an immune stimulating intervention. The management of patients with septic shock is often complex and the development of sepsis teams should be encouraged so that the multiple components of treatment, e.g., insertion of intravascular lines, blood sampling for culture and biochemistry, positioning of required monitoring devices, fluid, antibiotic and vasoactive drug administration, etc, can be carried out simultaneously.
Key words: infection, fluid resuscitation, immunomodulation, organ dysfunction, sepsis team, vasopressors

Fluid therapy remains one of the fundamental treatment options available for patients with acute kidney injury. However, there remains debate over several aspects of this treatment with many questions unanswered. Firstly, how do we prescribe fluid in this group of patients? Secondly, what is the role of fluid therapy in patients with or at risk of developing acute kidney injury and thirdly, what role does fluid balance play, if any, in the development of acute kidney injury. The following narrative review will attempt to tie some of the aspects of the treatment of this devastating syndrome together and formulate an overall hypothesis for fluid management in acute kidney injury.
Key words: Acute kidney injury, glomerular filtration rate, fluid overload

Routine anaesthesia monitoring until the mid-1980s often consisted of just a finger on the pulse, primitive ECG and intermittent blood pressure (MAP) measurement using a cuff and aneroid gauge or mechanical oscillotonometer. Then in quick succession an explosion of new monitors was introduced including pulse oximetry (SpO2), end tidal carbon dioxide (EtCO2) and anaesthetic agent monitoring as well as automated non-invasive blood pressure (NIBP) machines. These were all routinely in place in many hospitals by the late 1980's, but then progress came to a halt with no advances in routine anaesthetic monitoring for over 25 years.
This paper concentrates on three classes of non- or minimally invasive monitors which have become additionally available in the last 10 to 15 years and if used in combination their potential impact on improving outcome following surgery in high risk patients:
If used together they provide complementary information which should improve perioperative haemodynamic management and outcome and form part of a multi-modal monitoring (MMM) strategy which is the subject of this article.
Key words: cardiac output, minimally invasive, tissue oxygenation, depth of anaesthesia, multi-modal monitoring

The human genome comprises some 20,000 genes, or 3 billion base pairs. Variation in this genetic sequence is common- and some of these variants affect gene function or the protein transcribed from it. Human characteristics are determined by the interaction of the genome with environmental challenges- and differences between us thus result from variation in those challenges and in the genome itself. This is true of human susceptibility to disease, and survival from it. Genetic variation influences human behaviours which may predispose to health or disease; the risk of contracting an infectious disease, or of suffering diseases such as cancer or myocardial infarction; the development of complications; the response to any treatment administered; and thus the outcome of the disease state. Genetic studies can help shed light on the mechanisms which underpin disease processes, whilst perhaps suggesting ways in which treatment might be 'personalised', and novel therapeutic targets for drug development.
More sophisticated approaches to such endeavours are required, given the failure to identify the bulk of gene variants of influence using conventional strategies.
Key words: Gene, polymorphism, survival, genome

Preview: Cygnus to Resume ISS Cargo Runs with Help from Atlas V Rocket
Posted by Jason Davis
Topics: commercial spaceflight, mission status, human spaceflight, International Space Station
In September 2013, an Antares rocket blasted off from the Mid-Atlantic Regional Spaceport on Wallops Island, Virginia, carrying the first Cygnus cargo spacecraft to the International Space Station. Cameras aboard the rocket showed a beautiful view of the coastline receding in the distance.
"Antares is making its second flight," said a launch commentator on NASA TV. "On this mission, we're sending Cygnus on its first journey of many to the International Space Station."
Those journeys, of course, were all supposed to take place aboard Antares rockets. Orbital Sciences Corporation—in its pre-merger days before becoming Orbital ATK—got off to a good start, successfully completing one Cygnus demo flight and two paid follow-ups. Then, on October 28, 2014, an Antares rocket suffered an engine failure seconds after liftoff. The launch vehicle, along with the fourth Cygnus spacecraft, fell back to Earth and exploded on the launch pad.
Antares has been grounded ever since, and won't return to duty until next year. Its dual, Soviet-built AJ26-62 engines are being replaced with modern Russian RD-181s.
But Cygnus doesn't have to wait—it's versatile enough to fly on other rockets. NASA could use the extra cargo capacity, while Orbital ATK needs to fulfill its contractural duties as a space station supplier. The company turned to United Launch Alliance for help. In just eight months, ULA built a payload adapter to attach Cygnus to its stalwart Atlas V rocket.
Orbital ATK, meanwhile, wrapped up work on a new, larger version of Cygnus, which now comes with 27 cubic meters of pressurized cargo space—enough to carry 25 percent more payload mass. The enchanced Cygnus also sports upgraded, circular solar arrays. During a NASA Advisory Council meeting on December 1, William Gerstenmaier, NASA's associate administrator for human spaceflight, said because the mission has a short lifespan, NASA is allowing Orbital ATK to be aggressive in testing out the new solar arrays.
"They're a much better power source than the current fold-up arrays," Gerstenmaier said. "Because you can take some risk with cargo missions, you can fly some new technology that is not of the full level of maturity that you would like to fly when you're committed to a dedicated spacecraft that's going to be up for multiple decades."
Gerstenmaier said the spacecraft's solar arrays would not start deploying until about an hour after Cygnus separates from the Atlas V, unlike similar vehicles that begin the deployment sequence almost immediately. The deployment itself is expected to take between 30 and 60 minutes. Cygnus will run on battery power until then, and has between 12 and 14 hours of power reserves in the event of a problem.
The Cygnus lost in last year's explosion was named the S.S. Deke Slayton; each Cygnus honors a deceased astronaut. In November, Orbital ATK christened the new vehicle the S.S. Deke Slayton II, trying once more to salute one of NASA's original seven astronauts.

— Orbital ATK (@OrbitalATK) November 13, 2015
On November 20, the new Cygnus, buttoned up inside its payload fairing, made its way out to Space Launch Complex 41 at Cape Canaveral Air Force Station. There, it joined the rest of the launch vehicle, which will roll out to the pad Wednesday morning. Liftoff is scheduled for Thursday, Dec. 3 at 5:55 p.m. EST (21:55 UTC). NASA TV coverage begins at 4:30 p.m. The launch window lasts 30 minutes, owing to a surplus of power in the Atlas V over Antares. The rockets are in vastly different power classes—even though the Atlas is flying in its stripped-down configuration, the 401 (4-meter payload fairing, zero solid rocket boosters and a single-engine Centaur upper stage).
If launch happens on time, Cygnus and its 3.3 metric tons of cargo will arrive at the station Sunday, December 6. NASA astronauts Kjell Lindgren and Scott Kelly will grab Cygnus with the station's robotic Canadarm at 5:30 a.m. EST. In a change from previous cargo flights, Cygnus will be installed on the Earth-facing port of Unity, which sits directly aft of Destiny, the U.S. laboratory, and Harmony, the station's forward multipurpose node. Until now, all of NASA's commercial cargo vehicles have berthed at the Earth-facing Harmony port. Kelly and Lindgren rerouted new power connections to Unity back in October.
Among the the supplies and equipment being delivered to the station is a safety jetpack astronauts can wear during spacewalks, as well as nitrogen and oxygen tanks for the station's air supply. New scientific deliveries include a temperature-controlled chamber for commercial life sciences research, an experiment to study how to better mix liquids and gases, and an investigation into how flame retardant materials work in microgravity.
Here's your Atlas V ascent timeline for the launch:
|Time (s)
|Time (mm:ss)
|RD-180 engine ignition
|Liftoff (thrust to weight > 1)
|Begin pitch/yaw naneuver
|Mach 1
|Maximum dynamic pressure
|Atlas Booster Engine Cutoff (BECO)
|Atlas booster/Centaur separation
|Centaur Main Engine Start (MES-1)
|Payload fairing jettison
|Centaur First Main Engine Cutoff (MECO-1)
|Cygnus separation
Cygnus will remain berthed to the ISS until January, when it will be stuffed with trash and sent back into Earth's atmosphere for destructive reentry.

An ordinary notice from insurance agencies is 'no therapeutic tests required to buy a protection approach'. Individuals are pulled in to the accommodation of no-test arrangement contrasted with the one that requires every single medicinal test. Be that as it may, is it truly right to buy an approach without knowing your wellbeing condition?
Each individual going to purchase a protection arrangement whether wellbeing or disaster protection needs to experience restorative tests as endorsed and ought to know about his wellbeing condition. This article talks about the significance and purposes behind getting a protection strategy subsequent to taking restorative tests properly.
Premiums depend on wellbeing condition
The premiums of a protection strategy (wellbeing or life) are charged in view of the individual's wellbeing condition. You have to make an affirmation about your wellbeing condition in strategy application frame and the safety net provider alters a premium rate on the premise of your discloser.
For comprehension this plainly, lets take a case of two people. Of them, one has high sugar levels and the other individual has typical sugar levels. On the off chance that both take protection approach from an organization that does not require therapeutic tests then both will be charged same premium. In any case, actually, the premiums for typical people ought to be not exactly the premiums of others with wellbeing issues.
The arrangements that require no-medicinal tests are:
Low esteem arrangements: Policies that don't consider wellbeing tests offer cover not more than Rs 5 lakh.

Between 2003 and 2010, 50% of all 6- to 19-year-olds, including those with asthma, were exposed to secondhand smoke, according to a U.S. study in the journal Academic Pediatrics. Exposure to secondhand smoke at even low levels was associated with more missed school days, sleeping problems, reduced physical activity and increased wheezing in 6- to 11-year-olds. "Adolescents may have more sporadic exposure (hanging with friends) compared to younger children who may be more chronically exposed at home," lead researcher Dr. Lara Akinbami said.

Hawaii throttles New Orleans 91-58
Associated Press
HONOLULU — Brandon Spearman scored 16 points as Hawaii throttled New Orleans for a 91-58 win Wednesday night.
Hawaii (4-2) went on a 12-0 run to take a 30-17 lead in the first half, and New Orleans never threatened after that.
Halftime didn't change much for New Orleans (1-3), and the Rainbow Warriors ripped off a 22-5 run to start the second half, pushing their lead to 61-31 with 11:29 to play.
Hawaii dominated the paint, outscoring the Privateers 40-18 and outrebounding them 57-28.
Christian Standhardiner scored 13 points to go with his 12 rebounds while Keith Shamburger added 11 points and six assists. Fourteen different players saw the floor for the Rainbow Warriors.
Isaac Mack led New Orleans with 14 points, but he shot only 4 of 13. The Privateers shot an abysmal 27.6 percent from the field and an even worse 21.1 percent from 3-point range.

A mum died just hours after taking Ecstasy at a family barbecue attended by her two children. Dawn Rennie, 37, suffered massive heart failure after taking the Class A drug at a party hosted by her sister. She had attended the gathering with her husband Graham and their children, aged 12 and eight.
Mrs Rennie was taken ill in the early hours of the following day at her home in Woodlands, Bursledon, and died at Southampton General Hospital. An inquest heard that the couple had taken Ecstasy before but not often since their children were born.
Pathologist Dr Bruce Addis said toxicology tests carried out during a post-mortem examination showed potentially lethal levels of amphetamine and Ecstasy in her system, as well as cannabis.

Drag to set position!
Group Since September 22, 2008
Join the group to start a discussion!
Group DescriptionEveryone loves a garden tour. But we can't personally visit all the great and deserving gardens around the world. So climb aboard the Heavy Petal tour bus, where you can tour fellow readers' gardens rain or shine, in spring or the depths of winter. The tour is full of fun people. And you don't have to wear identifying hats in an unflattering colour.
First things first: your garden doesn't have to be perfect! It will never be finished. It will always have looked better some other time. We don't care. We want to see real gardens. Or corners of gardens. Or balconies, or allotments. Whatever you've done, we want to see it. Before pictures are great, but not completely necessary. We just want to see what others have done, to share ideas, and above all, to escape into the garden!
To submit, please visit heavypetal.ca and click on Garden Tours. Fill out the short survey, which gives readers information about your garden, then upload your photos. Please tag them Heavy Petal Garden Tour.
