Boys drop pair at Maxwell
After overtime loss at home, Brady falls to 1-5.
Brady couldn't match Arnold's four players in double figures during the first round of the Maxwell Booster Tournament last week and then allowed Stapleton-McPherson County its first win of the season.
In the opening round Dec. 21, Arnold made 25 free throws compared with Brady's six shots from the line to win 53-41.
Coach Rich Britten said that's a real telling statistic for the boys.
"We're simply not getting to the free throw line enough," he said.
Arnold led 15-13 at the end of the first quarter and went up 33-24 with a Chase Schwarz buzzer-beater at halftime.
Both teams struggled to score in the third period and Arnold outlasted a Brady run in the fourth.
Christian Arterburn led the Eagles with 15 points. Nathan Montoya and Devan Polt pulled down eight rebounds each.
It seemed to be the same song with another verse during the Maxwell tournament consolation when the Eagles fell to SMC 56-43.
"We got behind by six or so points in the first quarter and worked our way back toward halftime," Britten said.
The Eagles trailed 13-7 at the end of the first quarter and closed the gap, tying the score at 16-16 midway through the second period.
The Eagles didn't score again in the first half until there was just over a minute to play.
In the final nine seconds before halftime, Kyle Pohlman hit a layup and a three-pointer to pull Brady within five, 27-22.
"We knew we were going to have to come out strong in the third quarter and that just didn't happen," Britten said.
SMC outscored Brady 18-4 from the free throw line.
Pohlman led the Eagles in scoring with 13 points and Tyler Egenberger chipped in eight. Brad Ward had seven rebounds.
"We scored more in field goals than both Arnold and SMC but we just didn't get to the line enough," Britten said.
Hope is on the horizon, though, he said.
Despite losing 69-58 in overtime to Paxton in the first round of the Brady Holiday Tournament, Britten is encouraged by a marked improvement in play.
Down 49-46 with just a handful of ticks left on the clock, Brady senior Corbin Blede hit a huge three-pointer to tie.
Two seconds remained in regulation when an unplanned Brady foul sent Paxton's Cooper Bollman to the line.
The Tiger senior missed both free throws to send the game into overtime.
"We just got a little too excited during the overtime, including me," Britten said, "and it got away from us."
Arterburn, Blede and Pohlman scored 10 points each for the Eagles.
"We just played so much better as a team," Britten said. "I think there are good things to come."
Brady faced Wauneta-Palisade in the consolation game on Tuesday.

MANILA, Philippines (AP) — The United Nations and Washington have separately asked the Philippines not to withdraw its more than 300 Filipino peacekeepers from the Golan Heights, warning of "maximum volatility" in the region after a number of countries decided to pull out their peacekeeping forces amid escalating violence, the Philippines' top diplomat said Wednesday.
Foreign Secretary Albert del Rosario said U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon and U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry appealed to him in recent talks. He said he told them security for the Filipino forces should be bolstered for the Philippines to consider to keep them in the volatile buffer zone between Syria and Israel.
Last month, del Rosario recommended the withdrawal of the Filipinos from the Golan Heights to Philippine President Benigno Aquino III following two separate abductions of Filipino peacekeepers and the wounding of another in fighting between Syrian government and rebel forces.
Austria announced recently that it would remove its 377 peacekeepers from the 911-member U.N. peacekeeping force, which also includes troops from India. That will leave the Philippines as the largest single contributor.
Croatia withdrew in March for fear its troops would be targeted. Japanese forces have also withdrawn, according to del Rosario.
"This, of course, will create a vacuum in the Golan, that separation stretch which keeps Israel away from Syria," del Rosario said in a news conference in Manila. He said Kerry and Ban told him that if the Philippines also withdraws, that would "create maximum volatility for the area."
In talks with Ban and Kerry, "I mentioned that we thought that the exposure was beyond tolerable limits for our people but we're willing to reconsider and make a new assessment if the security and safety of our peacekeepers would be upgraded," he said.
Ban has proposed expanding the peacekeeping force to 1,250, and British Ambassador Mark Lyall Grant, president of the U.N. Security Council, said Tuesday there is strong support in the council for the idea.
The Filipino troops now in the Golan Heights will stay in the region up to Aug. 3, when they need to be replaced by a fresh batch. But del Rosario said the Philippines may withdraw from the peacekeeping mission if no additional safeguards are put in place to ensure their safety.
The Philippines has deployed an assessment team to the Golan Heights to take "a good look as to under what conditions we may be able to stay and not withdraw," del Rosario said.
The team would submit an assessment later this week before Aquino makes a final decision, he said.

SANDY SPRINGS, Ga. (AP) - Authorities say a 22-year-old metro Atlanta man has been found dead after he apparently drowned while trying to swim across the Chattahoochee River.
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports the Georgia Department of Natural Resources identified the man as Girona L. Pye of Woodstock. Sgt. Mike Barr of the DNR says his body was recovered Sunday morning.
Barr says that Pye vanished beneath the river waters Saturday while he was on an outing with friends. Witnesses told investigators he was trying to swim across the river with a friend when Pye appeared to get tired and went under without resurfacing.
The DNR says no foul play is suspected in the drowning, but alcohol may have been a factor.

A chemistry and political science major, Vylonis joined professor Andrew French's lab during her sophomore year seeking an environmentally friendly way to generate chemical reactions with iodine by replacing the metals currently in use. Despite countless hours in the lab, the material Vylonis developed to create faster, more efficient reactions didn't act the way she expected. She hopes her thesis, which led to departmental honors in chemistry, will spur future students to perfect her research, and that her name will always be included in future presentations.
"I was hoping it would work one time," Vylonis, who graduated cum laude, said. "I would spend a substantial amount of time synthesizing and purifying the product before placing it in a silica gel column. Our column was acidic and caused the product to break down into its starting material. French would call me Houdini because the product would disappear.
"I can say I have a published piece which was the result of a lot of hard work," she added. "I hope it's not stuck on the shelf in French's office or the library getting dusty."
'Winning' the medical school interview
Although Vylonis' project didn't lead to a breakthrough, French was quick to point out that the countless hours in his lab didn't go to waste. Experience on the lab bench is one of the components medical schools evaluate when considering which students to admit, and Vylonis shined during her interviews when she was able to articulate her research ability.
"Medical schools can tell if a student is parroting an answer their boss gave them at the interview stage," French said. "Lab research can be one of those boxes a student interested in medical school marks off the checklist, but that doesn't mean that individual is engaged in the process. Medical schools are looking for a sustained, long-term commitment to the profession.
"Megan's score on the Medical College Admission Test was not the highest, but it was her research and her ability to communicate about that experience that won her interview," French concluded.
Vylonis also won her medical school interview with an extensive body of experience in the medical field. She has worked as a phlebotomist at Lakeland Community Hospital in Niles for four years and a co-worker occasionally takes her along to view medical procedures. Vylonis also worked for Keith Schauder, '81, in Texas and has shadowed her own physician, a Kirksville alumnus.
"I like the holistic approach of osteopathic medicine," Vylonis said of her decision to study to become a D.O. a couple of years ago. "If an individual visits an osteopath for a headache, the D.O. might give them something for the headache, but they may also try a form of osteopathic manipulation before something more drastic."
'I don't have it in me to quit'
An honorable mention all-state performer in tennis at Buchanan High School, the ability to pursue academic and athletic endeavors drew Vylonis to Albion. Her desire to successfully launch her academic career kept her off the court her first two years, but an activity class taught by tennis coach Scott Frew lit her competitive fire.
Vylonis was expected to be the Britons' No. 5 singles player, but a bout with tonsillitis set her back. Just as she was returning to shape, she stepped in a pothole and sprained an ankle. Albion went on to capture the Michigan Intercollegiate Athletic Association championship, and the undeterred Vylonis joined Leah Saurman for a victory at No. 3 doubles in the Britons' first round match of the NCAA Division III Championships.
"I don't have it in me to quit because you never know if things will come together just as quickly as they fell apart," Vylonis said.

CHICAGO (AP) — An executive vice president of a cancer charity founded by Lance Armstrong says the cyclist wasn't formally asked to resign after admitting the use of performance-enhancing drugs.
Andy Miller told The Associated Press on Thursday it wasn't clear there was even a provision in Livestrong's bylaws to ask the founder to leave.
Armstrong resigned as chairman in October shortly after a report detailed his use of the banned drugs.
Armstrong told Oprah Winfrey earlier this year he wasn't "told to leave" but was aware of "pressure."
Miller says the board was abuzz over the scandal at the time and that may have given Armstrong a sense of being pressured.
But Miller says, "It ultimately had to be his decision."

Phillylacrosse.com, Posted 4/20/13
From Press Release
The #14/16 Lehigh men's lacrosse team jumped on archrival Lafayette early and often, closing the regular season with an impressive 14-5 on Saturday evening.
Sophomore Dan Taylor had a monster game with a career-high four goals and seven points while David DiMaria posted three goals and three assists on his Senior Night. The defense allowed just two even strength goals on the evening as it's allowed seven or fewer goals in six of its last seven games.
"I was just proud of our guys," said Lehigh head coach Kevin Cassese. "We talked all week about playing the right way. It could have been easy for our guys to overlook this one.
"As far as the Patriot League [standings] are concerned, it didn't mean a ton, but as we all know, when it's Lehigh-Lafayette, it means a whole lot. I was proud of our guys. I thought they played the right way. They were energized and excited to come out."
Lehigh's 14 seniors were recognized prior to their final home game in the Brown and White.
"We got all 14 seniors in the game tonight and they all played really well," said Cassese. "Just tremendous character guys. I'm really proud of them and the way they showed up tonight, all season and all four years."
The Mountain Hawks wrapped up their first-ever undefeated Patriot League season while they reached double-digit victories overall (10) for a second straight season. It marks the first time Lehigh has eclipsed double-digit wins in consecutive seasons since 1993 and 1994.
DiMaria and Taylor combined for half of Lehigh's goals while the other half came from seven different goal scorers. Senior Kyle Stiefel and sophomore Klay Heston each had a goal and assist while senior Brian Hess dished two helpers. Senior Mike Noone (La Salle) helped anchor the defense with two groundballs and two caused turnovers while junior Ty Souders (Emmaus) scored three groundballs. Junior Ryan Buttenbaum (Conestoga) impressed at the faceoff X, winning 9-of-14 with five groundballs.
Taylor got the scoring started less than a minute in, finishing a feed from senior Alex Drake. Taylor made it 2-0 at 10:29 before goals from junior Cody Ferraro and DiMaria gave Lehigh a 4-0 lead less than 10 minutes into the contest.
The Leopards scored two straight man-up goals and three of the game's next five goals as Brian Bock pulled Lafayette within 6-3 at 10:15 of the second quarter. Lehigh responded to close out the half on a 3-0 run, extending it to 5-0 with the first two scores of the second half.
Lafayette ended a 17:30 scoreless drought midway through the third quarter to pull within 11-4, but the Mountain Hawks scored three of the final four goals for the convincing 14-5 win.
Lehigh held a 42-36 edge in shots and 29-28 advantage in groundballs. The Mountain Hawks were 3-for-3 on the extra man while Lafayette was 3-for-6. Sophomore Matt Poillon stopped five of eight shots in 27:47 while seniors Dan Carr and Griffin Farha each stopped four of five in extended minutes.
"I was proud of our goaltenders. I thought all of our goaltenders played well," said Cassese. "It was really nice to see Griffin and Dan get in and make some stops. I thought the guys played really hard and played some passionate ball in front of those guys, and you can definitely understand why."
Brian Bock (Spring-Ford) had two goals and an assist for the Leopards (3-10, 0-6).
The Mountain Hawks now look ahead to the Patriot League Tournament next weekend, which they'll host. Lehigh will face #4 seed Colgate on Friday (Apr. 26) at 7:30 p.m. after #2 Bucknell and #3 Army square off at 4:30. The winners will face off on Sunday (Apr. 28) at 3 p.m. for the Patriot League Tournament Championship and automatic berth to the NCAA Tournament.
"We're excited about where we are, but we're not content," said Cassese. "We have a lot more to do and we understand this is going to be a huge week for us. We're happy to host it. It's going to be a great environment here. We've got to get our guys ready to go and ready to play."

Battle of the Loser Bands
How to fail at alternative rock: DiG!
Ondi Timoner's new film DiG! (Palm Pictures) sets out to document the rising careers of two West Coast alternative rock bands, the Brian Jonestown Massacre and the Dandy Warhols. Things go consistently, relentlessly wrong, and instead of an inspiring making-of-the-band film, Timoner gives us a chronicle of misguided aspirations and failure. The movie has become a kind of highway-safety film for the rock community—bootleg copies were said to be a precious commodity on tour buses this summer.
DiG! is probably the best portrait we'll get of the post-Nirvana epoch, when record companies championed exactly the kind of underground bands they had so studiously avoided in the '70s and '80s. In the Brian Jonestown Massacre and the Dandy Warhols, Timoner has found two bands without critical acclaim or commercial success. It's their anonymity that makes DiG! so compelling. The Massacre's Anton Newcombe and the Warhols' Courtney Taylor are Rock Stars Without Portfolio, charismatic and manipulative lead singers in search of an audience that will justify their personalities.
Newcombe and Taylor are obsessed with their own credibility. They assume they've got it and neither wants to blow it by "selling out." Both embrace the pretenses of the no-longer-indie underground rock scene in the '90s, the hustle of a generation determined to get its share of a previously unimaginable windfall.
For his part, Newcombe has studied the contradictions of Brian Jones. As founder and lead guitarist of the Rolling Stones, Jones almost single-handedly invented the myth of credibility. He despaired when the Stones' growing popularity was fueled by the emerging partnership between Mick Jagger and Keith Richards; the band's success made him surly and withdrawn, and he was kicked out shortly before his death in 1969. Newcombe, who called his band the Brian Jonestown Massacre, counts on the industry types getting his cheeky in-joke. As Sire Records' Seymour Stein reportedly put it, "With a name like that, you can't go wrong."
Oh, but they can, Seymour. Offered a million-dollar record deal if his band could play a showcase for industry executives at Los Angeles' Viper Room, Newcombe alienates attendees when he starts the show, declaiming, "That's why we're going to get the biggest deal in history. Because we're smart." So smart, in fact, that he melts down and fires his band onstage before the evening ends with a mass fistfight in the club—the first of at least a dozen moments that rival anything in This IsSpinal Tap.
Newcombe seems energized by the disaster. He stares wild-eyed into the camera and proclaims, "I am not for sale. Nobody says that. I am f---ing Love, do you understand what I'm saying? Like, the Beatles were for sale. I give it away."
The Dandy Warhols face a more lucrative kind of fiasco. The band signs to Capitol Records and happily gives itself over to the label's star-making machinery. But the machinery breaks down, and the band produces an expensive video (which they hate) for their not-quite-hit single "Not If You Were the Last Junkie on Earth." Taylor fights with the record company, all the while proclaiming his genius: "I sneeze and hits come out."
With each band facing a different kind of meltdown, it's almost inevitable that they will attempt to feud with one another. The Brian Jonestown Massacre tries to start a Blur/Oasis-style skirmish with the Dandy Warhols by recording a single called "Not If You Were the Last Dandy on Earth." Sadly, neither band is popular enough for the fight to matter.
Taylor's obsession with Newcombe is more interesting. At the beginning of the film, Taylor breathlessly proclaims of the BJM, "No label will touch them. They are so crazy. They never eat. All I've seen them do is drink liquor and snort drugs." It's clear that for Taylor, Newcombe exemplifies credibility. In the film's most astonishing moment, Taylor leads the Dandy Warhols and a photographer to a trashed Brian Jonestown house for an unannounced photo shoot. The BJM stand around helplessly, complaining as Taylor effortlessly steals their life as a backdrop for a magazine spread. It's exactly the sort of soul-stealing made famous by Andy Warhol.
Neither band is without talent, exactly. Newcombe plunders his encyclopedic knowledge of '60s rock to create a pastiche that might be appealing if his band could find a way to actually play his songs. Taylor's band makes competent if uninspiring alternative rock, spiced up with novelty singles like "Junkie" and "Bohemian Like You." And it's those singles that provide DiG! with its only fleeing moments of hope. Even though they've never really cracked it in America, the Dandy Warhols settle into a comfortable, midlevel career overseas. Newcombe, meanwhile, destroys his band to save his own credibility.
Newcombe may not realize how prophetic his band's name turned out to be, because he's repeatedly sacrificed his career to an indefinable ideal of cool. It's as if Brian Jones himself is dispensing the Kool-Aid and Newcombe is first in line to take a drink.
After we're numb from Newcombe's long, slow descent, we finally get a small moment of emotional redemption. The Dandy Warhols headline England's Reading Festival and 60,000 kids wildly sing along to "Bohemian Like You." It may not be a great song—or one you'll remember three minutes after you leave the theater—but it's a powerful reminder of just what music is for, and it explodes all of the navel-gazing and infighting in one precious moment of redemption.
Brian Jones would not find it cool.

- 1 Installation
- 2 Configuration
- 3 Running Hamachi
- 5 Troubleshooting
- 6 See also
Version 2 of the Linux Hamachi client exists and is currently in beta. It is available from the labs page on the Hamachi website; however, the vendor's tarball requires LSB and will not install correctly. You should use the logmein-hamachiAUR package from the AUR instead.
Set Up Tun
Being as section above can only be applied for init.scripts, in order to install the module, as root run:
# modprobe tun
Then add tun to the list of modules by using your favorite text editor and Create
#Load tun module at boot. tun
Hamachi 2 (beta)
Hamachi 2 is configured in
/var/lib/logmein-hamachi/h2-engine-override.cfg (create that file if it doesn't exist).
Unfortunately, it isn't easy to find a comprehensive list of possible configuration options, so here are a few that you can use.
Using the hamachi command line tool as a regular user
In order to use the
hamachi command line tool as a regular user, add the following line to the configuration file:
Ipc.User YourUserNameHere
Automatically setting a custom nickname
Normally, Hamachi uses your system's hostname as the nickname that other Hamachi users will see. If you want to automatically set a custom nickname every time Hamachi starts, add the following line to the configuration file:
Setup.AutoNick YourNicknameHere
You can also manually set a nickname using the
hamachi command line tool:
# hamachi set-nick YourNicknameHere
However, this needs to be done every time Hamachi is (re-)started, so if you always want to use the same nickname, setting it automatically (as explained above) is probably easier.
Running Hamachi
Start up the (matt) daemon
$hamachi start
or, if you use systemd
#systemctl start logmein-hamachi
Now you have a whole bunch of commands at your disposal. These are in no particular order and are fairly self explanatory.
$hamachi set-nick bob $hamachi login $hamachi create my-net secretpassword $hamachi go-online my-net $hamachi list $hamachi go-offline my-net
To get a list of all the commands, run:
$hamachi ?
Note: Make sure you change the status of the channel(s) you are in to "online" if you want to perform any network actions on computers in there.
The logmein-hamachiAUR AUR package also includes a nice little Systemd daemon.
If you feel like it, you can set Hamachi to start at every boot with Systemd:
systemctl enable logmein-hamachi
To start the Hamachi Daemon immediately, use this command:
systemctl start logmein-hamachi
Various GUI frontends for Hamachi are available in the AUR.
For Hamachi 1:
- haguichi (Gtk2, mono)
- ghamachi (Gtk2)
- hamachi-gui (Gtk2)
For Hamachi 2 (beta):
- quamachi (Qt4)
- haguichi (Gtk2, mono)
Hamachi times out soon after launch
If hamachi stops working after a short period of time it can be that the client is timing out. Create ~/.hamachi/config and add the following to it:
KeepAlive 10
If you have problems connecting to some hosts
Check if they are using Hamachi 2. If that is the case, then it is a known issue with the Hamachi 2 client connecting to the Hamachi Linux client.
/etc/init.d/logmein-hamachi is not found
Replace that path with /etc/rc.d/logmein-hamachi.
Error when trying to run hamachi-init
If there is an error while trying to load libstdc++.so.5, you want to install it. This library can be found in the extra repository, so you can install it by running
pacman -S libstdc++5.
If you get an error while trying to load libcrypto.so.0.9.7, a temporary solution is to create a link from /usr/lib/libcrypto.so.0.9.7 to /usr/lib/libcrypto.so by running
ln -s /usr/lib/libcrypto.so /usr/lib/libcrypto.so.0.9.7.

SALT LAKE CITY — Police have released dash-cam footage in a chase on I-15 last week that led police through Salt Lake County.
The chase started at about 12:50 p.m. on I-15 near 12300 South. Dash-cam footage shows a woman driving a black Volvo passing a Utah Highway Patrol trooper in the emergency lane. The woman, identified as Lisa Anne Sovereen, 44, refused to pull over as speeds reached 80 mph.
Sovereen called 911 and asked the dispatcher "that the trooper get off her back," according to UHP Cpl. Todd Johnson. She said she believed the trooper would try to ram her car. When the UHP called her back, she said she was not required to pull over and that police had stolen her previous vehicle and taken her blood.
Police set up tire spikes near 8000 South, but Sovereen avoided them. Tire spikes near 7200 South punctured one tire. Police caught up to Sovereen at about 600 North in Salt Lake City.
In the dash-cam footage, officers can be heard ordering Sovereen out of her car and onto the ground.
"Now you're gonna beat me up?" Sovereen asks repeatedly. "Don't beat me up."
Multiple officers direct Sovereen to lie on the ground on her chest. She resists, saying she recently had surgery on her face.
"This is the last time I'm going to tell you. Now, I'm going to force you to get on your chest if you don't do what I tell you to do."
As she was taken into custody, Sovereen told troopers "she did not stop because she was a sovereign citizen and (police) had no authority to stop her," according to the UHP.
Sovereen was charged with failure to stop for police, a third-degree felony; and reckless driving, a misdemeanor.

Trevélez cured ham
Cured ham
Which area of Spain is it typical?
- Autonomous region: Andalusia
The particular features of this cured ham are due to its special curing, carried out in unique climatic conditions, as Trevélez is one of the highest villages in Spain.
Trevélez hams are guaranteed by the Food, Fisheries and Agriculture Ministry's Specific Quality Designation, and controlled by the Regulatory Council. Trevélez hams with designation only come from pigs of the Landrace, Duroc-Jersey and Large-white varieties, or from crossbreeds between them. The curing process can only take place in eight districts of the High Alpujarra (Granada Province), in curing barns over 1,200m above sea level. The curing process uses neither preservatives nor additives, and takes 14-24 months. The result is a delicate, tasty ham, with a low salt content and fat of a sticky consistency.

Home for the Holidays: 1st SynCardia Total Artificial Heart Patient Discharged from UCLA
35-Year-Old Chad Washington Rejected His First Donor Heart, Waits for Second Transplant
Jan 10, 2013, 06:55 EST
TUCSON, Ariz., Jan. 10, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- SynCardia Systems, Inc. (www.syncardia.com), manufacturer of the world's first and only FDA, Health Canada and CE (Europe) approved Total Artificial Heart, announced today that Ronald Reagan UCLA Medical Center in Los Angeles has discharged its first patient to receive the SynCardia temporary Total Artificial Heart. Chad Washington, 35, left the hospital on Dec. 10, in time to celebrate the holidays at home with his wife and 4-year-old son using the Freedom® portable driver to power his Total Artificial Heart.

"This technology offers a lifeline for patients who are in severe heart failure and dying," said Dr. Richard J. Shemin, professor and chair of cardiothoracic surgery at UCLA and surgical director of the UCLA Mechanical Circulatory Support Program. "The Total Artificial Heart offers advantages over other devices used for mechanical support of patients awaiting a heart transplant. With the new Freedom driver for powering the device, the patients can leave the hospital, live at home and undergo rehabilitation, improving their clinical condition and quality of life as they await their transplant."
Washington, an aspiring personal chef, has suffered from congenital heart disease all his life. Starting at 10 days old, he has undergone a series of heart-repair surgeries throughout his life, including having pacemakers and a defibrillator implanted.
After Washington's condition deteriorated as an adult, he received a heart transplant in February 2012. However, six months later, the donor heart started showing signs of rejection that did not respond to therapy. A second transplant wasn't possible because his body had built up antibodies that would likely attack a new heart.
To save Washington's life, on Oct. 29, 2012, the team at UCLA performed its first implant of the SynCardia Total Artificial Heart, led by Dr. Murray Kwon, assistant professor of cardiothoracic surgery.
Read press release from UCLA -
"By removing the patient's diseased donor heart, we removed the source of his end-stage heart failure," said Dr. Ali Nsair, assistant professor of cardiology. "The Total Artificial Heart — and being off immunosuppressant medications — allows his body to recover and get ready for a heart transplant in a few months."
Washington says he's grateful the Total Artificial Heart is keeping him around for his son, who enjoys the ticking sound it makes. "He likes it. He thinks it's cool," said Washington. "But he still thinks his toys are cooler."
Weighing 13.5 pounds, the Freedom portable driver is the world's first wearable power supply for the SynCardia Total Artificial Heart. The Freedom portable driver is CE approved for use in Europe and undergoing an FDA-approved Investigational Device Exemption (IDE) clinical study in the U.S.
"The ability to be at home with family is an important element in helping the patient to maintain a positive outlook during the waiting period," added Dr. Mario Deng, a professor of cardiology and medical director of the UCLA Advanced Heart Failure/Mechanical Support/Heart Transplant Program.

About the SynCardia temporary Total Artificial Heart
SynCardia Systems, Inc. (Tucson, AZ) is the privately-held manufacturer of the world's first and only FDA, Health Canada and CE approved Total Artificial Heart. Originally used as a permanent replacement heart, SynCardia's Total Artificial Heart is currently approved as a bridge to transplant for people dying from end-stage biventricular heart failure. There have been more than 1,000 implants of the Total Artificial Heart, accounting for more than 270 patient years of life.
Similar to a heart transplant, SynCardia's Total Artificial Heart replaces both failing heart ventricles and the four heart valves, eliminating the symptoms and source of end-stage biventricular failure. Unlike a donor heart, the Total Artificial Heart is immediately available at SynCardia Certified Centers. It is the only device that provides immediate, safe blood flow of up to 9.5 liters per minute through each ventricle. This high volume of safe blood flow helps speed the recovery of vital organs, helping make the patient a better transplant candidate.
SynCardia Wins Two Gold Stevies® at 2012 American Business Awards
On June 18, 2012, SynCardia was honored with two Gold Stevie® Awards at the 10th Annual American Business Awards. SynCardia won "Company of the Year – Health Products and Services" and "Most Innovative Company of the Year – up to 100 Employees."

Like cheerleaders forming a human pyramid, particles, too, can assemble themselves into intricate patterns. In a new study, researchers at the University of Michigan found that an object's shape greatly affects how it responds to crowding and that, with a properly designed shape, tiny material building blocks known as nanoparticles could self-assemble into predictable larger structures simply by being forced to share space with neighbors. The study, which appeared in the July 27 Science, could help researchers design new materials.
The investigators ran computer simulations of 145 different particles having idealized polyhedral shapes. (A polyhedron is a solid formed by planar faces.) When packed closely with identically shaped particles, most of those polyhedrons assembled into a crystal lattice or a crystal-like arrangement. Study co-author Sharon Glotzer, a Michigan professor of chemical engineering, materials science and physics, and her colleagues had previously found that some particle shapes naturally self-assemble. Yet the new simulations showed that such behavior is the rule, not the exception.
Moreover, some of the shapes displayed an impressively coordinated assembly process. A pyramid shape with a square base joined into "supercubes" of six pyramids apiece, which then formed a larger cubic lattice. The researchers also found that the collective behavior of a given particle type is far from random. In fact, two numbers all but foretell the outcome. A number called the isoperimetric quotient, which roughly captures a particle's shape, and a measure called the coordination number, which describes how many neighbors a particle has, predicted 94 percent of the time which crystalline form a polyhedron would take. The relation between shape and self-assembly could be used to tailor nanoparticles to exhibit a specific collective behavior.
"This is sort of a holy grail of materials research: to just look at a building block and be able to say, 'Oh yes, I know all the kinds of crystal structure that would be stable with this,'" Glotzer says. "This study allows us to take a first step in that direction."

A new commemorative medal was created to mark the 2012 celebrations of the 60th anniversary of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II's accession to the Throne as Queen of Canada. The Queen Elizabeth II Diamond Jubilee Medal is a tangible way for Canada to honour Her Majesty for her service to this country. At the same time, it serves to honours significant contributions and achievements by Canadians. The medal program is part of the Jubilee year celebrations, organized by the Government of Canada.
Commemorative medals are established from time to time to mark special anniversaries or occasions. They are typically awarded to recognize contributions made by Canadians from a broad spectrum of society. Other commemorative medals created in Canada include the Canadian Centennial Medal (1967); the Queen Elizabeth II Silver Jubilee Medal (1977); the 125th Anniversary of the Confederation of Canada Medal (1992); and the Queen Elizabeth II Golden Jubilee Medal (2002).
For more information, please visit the Honours section of our website and click on the Commemorative Medals tab.

The maple leaves refer to Canada, while the motto VIVAT REGINA means "Long live The Queen!"

Updated: Dec. 15, 2011 -- Within about a month of enrolling their daughter at St. Mary's in Brookline, the Polsons got some surprising news from Boston school officials: A spot at their first-choice school, the Quincy, had opened up. Did they want it?
Even though Ayla was happily enjoying St. Mary's, Kathy and Glyn decided to grab the spot - and Ayla enrollled at the Quincy in late October. They had long wanted, ideally, a public elementary school in their neighborhood for their first child, and hope Ayla's younger sister will join her there someday.
In an e-mail sent in mid-December, Kathy Polson writes: "The transition is going well- she loves the new school and is very happy- actually much happier. She tells me it is because she is going to school in her neighborhood with her friends. It is also nicer for Glyn and I with connections in the neighborhood."
Updated: Oct. 2, 2011 -- Weeks before her first day of school, 5-year-old Ayla Polson had the school uniform for St. Mary's in Brookline all set - the white blouse, plaid jumper, and black shoes. Her parents, Glyn and Kathy, had been using the word "kindergarten" a lot by late summer, hoping to prepare the oldest of their two children for the transition.
And so far, Ayla has loved her new school – especially music, gym, drawing and spelling, her father says.
"It's going really well," said Glyn, 37, a lawyer whose family lives in the South End.
The decision to send Ayla to St. Mary's came after the couple learned they were shut out of their top three choices in the Boston Public School lottery. They were put on the waiting lists, but there were dozens of other families ahead of them.
They went from anger and frustration - to pragmatism. They started an intense house hunt on the North Shore. They talked to other anxious families who were weighing their odds of getting off waiting lists.
Then a slot opened up at St. Mary's, a school they were impressed with, and so they grabbed it. The school will cost them about $4,500 a year, but that seemed a small price for temporary peace of mind.
"I'm happy with where we are now, though I'm still frustrated that she can't go to a school in her neighborhood and with friends who live in her neighborhood," said the father.
They haven't ruled out trying the lottery again. Their youngest daughter is 2, and will be ready for kindergarten in just a few years. Two tuitions are not ideal, and the commute from the South End to Brookline is not simple. "It's going to be a work in progress," Glyn said.
Updated: March 28, 2011 -- The letter came hours after the Polson family had left for vacation in Florida -- but still they got the bad news that day.
A neighbor, who had checked the mail for them, called when they landed at the airport: The Polson's 4-year-old daughter, Ayla, did not get a seat at any of her three chosen schools -- the Quincy, Mary Lyons or the Hurley. Her parents, Kathy and Glyn Polson, sat in silence, as they drove to a friend's house. They were "stunned," and then wondered why they had been optimistic about such a random process.
Ayla was on the waiting list at St. Mary's in Brookline, and they remain open to moving to Andover or North Reading. Still, they love their South End neighborhood, and hope maybe Ayla is high on the waiting list at one of the Boston public schools.
March 13, 2011 -- Kathy and Glyn Polson never thought of themselves as urbanites. Each grew up in rural neighborhoods -- her in Vermont, his in upstate New York. But about a decade ago, the couple moved to Boston's South End, and instantly fell in love with city life.
About five years ago, their first daughter, Ayla, was born, and two years ago, their second daughter, Eliza. They fully expected their oldest child would attend a nearby kindergarten with her neighborhood peers.
And so it came as a shock when they realized that kindergarten slots in Boston were distributed by a lottery system - and worse yet, that they had lost an opportunity to boost their chances of getting their daughter into their top-choice school. Had they secured a seat for Ayla a year earlier as a pre-kindergarten student in that school, she would have been allowed to stay there in the years ahead.
"We were behind in the game," said Glyn Polson, 37, a lawyer and president of the Friends of South End Library.
And so, starting last fall, they began visiting open houses and learning the complex application process. They started to second-guess their decision to stay in the city, and wondered if a suburban school system, which usually assigns seats based purely by neighborhood, was better. Just as they became more involved in the South End youth soccer league, they began driving to open houses in Andover and North Reading. Still, they were committed to trying to enroll their daughter in Boston, much as it triggered deep anxieties.
"It's a lottery -- it's up to chance," said the mother, also 37, a nurse practitioner at Dana Farber Cancer Institute. "It's scary."
After much research, they placed the Quincy School, near Chinatown, as their top choice, largely because they were impressed by its offerings and it is within walking distance of their home. Their second and third choices were the Mary Lyons School in Brighton and Hurley School in the South End. They want their daughter's school to be strong in academic subjects, as well as offering programs in the arts, music and dance.
But mostly, they like the idea of proximity, and that their children will come to befriend others in the neighborhood. It bothers both parents that, even if their daughter obtains a seat in one of their top-choice schools, this random process will determine their fates for middle and high school. The father laments that this system "doesn't encourage community building."
For now, they are hoping for good news in the mail.
"We don't want to move," said the mother.

Unlocking Cell Phones : Statement from the Library of Congress and the White House
I don't know if any of you have been following this ruling, and the resulting national petition, but it's a rather interesting step toward the future. Back in October 2012, the Librarian of Congress decided that unlocking of cell phones would be removed from the exceptions to the DMCA. As of January 26, consumers are no longer able to unlock their phones for use on a different network without carrier permission, even after their contract has expired. But now read this from the White House . . . March 5, 2013
