I'm happy to report that I have been invited to serve on the ACM SUI 2016 program committee! The conference will be held in Tokyo, on the 15-16 October.
This paper explores the use of eye gaze as a third channel supporting bimanual touch interaction. We explored whether users can perform three actions in parallel and how effective they are. Results show that for 13% of the time, users acted in complete parallelism. We discuss how three-point user interfaces could benefit from a third channel.
I will be presenting this paper at the ACM Advanced Visual Interfaces Conferences to be held in Bari, Italy this June (7-10), for which I was also chosen to serve as a Program Committee member.

My full paper on using Indirect Touch multi-touch interaction techniques for stereoscopic displays has been accepted at the IEEE Symposium on 3D User Interfaces 2016, to be held in Greenville, SC, USA.
The ACM XRDS magazine for students published in its fall issue our article on recent developments on Substitutional Reality. The rest of the issue also contains several interesting articles and perspectives on Virtual Reality!
I have uploaded the talk I gave on April 23, 2015 in Seoul at the CHI 2015 conference on our research work on Substitutional Reality. It is now online on youtube!
The workshop paper on Substitutional Reality published at the IEEE 1st Workshop on Everyday Virtual Reality is now available on the IEEE Xplore library and here (preprint version).
The video accompanying our research paper on Substitutional Reality is now online on youtube!
Our paper was just accepted at the Personal and Ubiquitous Computing journal. As our interactions increasingly cut across diverse devices, we often encounter situations where we find information on one device but wish to use it on another device for instance a phone number spotted on a public display but wanted on a mobile. We conceptualise this problem as Select & Apply and contribute two user studies where we presented participants with eight different scenarios involving different device combinations, applications and data types. In the first, we used a think-aloud methodology to gain insights on how users currently accomplish such tasks and how they ideally would like to accomplish them. In the second, we conducted a focus group study to investigate which factors influence their actions. Results indicate shortcomings in present support for Select & Apply and contribute a better understanding of which factors affect cross-device interaction.

Our paper titled "Comparing Indirect and Direct Touch in a Stereoscopic Interaction Task" has been accepted for inclusion in the 3DUI 2015 program.
In this work we investigated the effect that occluding the screen has on direct touch 3D interaction techniques. Indeed, interacting with 3D content on a multi-touch screen causes the user to occlude with their arms or hands large parts of the display. We designed a 3D interaction task in which users had to move a biplane in a 3D environment while avoiding collisions with the gold spheres, which counted as errors. In one condition, participants interacted on a 3D multi-touch screen, in the other, we adapted the interaction technique for a tablet device. Results of our user-study showed that in the indirect condition (with the tablet) participants performed 30% less erros.

During the long flight the Russian officer with the vast swath of red lipstick on her mouth had been taking a motherly interest in Crow. She'd noticed the end of a bandage under his black thermal bonnet, and one of the overhead storage nets had come undone during takeoff, so she reached up and tied up the netting more securely. She'd also noticed Crow had eaten the two sandwiches she had given him at the start of the flight. She came over to him with a stainless-steel pot of dumplings with steam rising off them. The weather forecast had said very cold air in eastern Russia so the bulmeini was welcome fuel to build up Crow's core temperature.
The female officer sat down between Crow and Mr Votrin. She smiled at Crow. 'My name Natasha and this aircraft are very good.' She said in English. 'Ve have not so much money in Russia. But these engines have many good hours more of life. Many hours!' She said with both eyebrows raised. She laughed. 'I hope you like dumplings?' Crow smiled and offered some to Mr Votrin first, then asked her in English. 'How near are we to the drop area?' He gestured with his hands in a parachute downward motion. The other crew of about six watched from their seated positions. One of them was reading a book but sometimes he looked up to see if Crow had taken anything interesting out of his bag. In the last few hours only a second chocolate bar and a map.
Suddenly the aircraft lurched. There was a loud bang. A soldier looked out of a small window and shouted then turned and took something heavy from his waist. Then all went quiet again.
At this speed it would be over in half a second. An attack by a jet. A missile and nobody would know what had happened. Bangs during flight put the imagination in overdrive. Crow watched the solider put his gun back and wondered what his weapon would have done against an outside attack. Normal reflexes.
The bang was a big metal supplies container breaking loose.
'Oh yes I go speak viz pilot.'
Then she looked at Mr Votrin. This was his first military flight. 'Or perhaps you please go Sasha?'
Crow supposed this was Mr Votrin's name between new friends. Sasha got up and went to the flight deck . . .

MTV VMA 2016 surely ended the night with a bang. Fans got epic performances from Beyoncé, Rihanna, and Britney Spears among others. Likewise, we witnessed emotional (and romantic) speeches. Moreover, we saw surprises and moments we'd never forget.
But behind the camera, there are more things which happened. You probably wonder about the audience reaction on Queen Bey's performance. How did Jimmy Fallon feel as Ryan Lochte? Or, who brought the best dance moves from the audience?
People Magazine got answers to those questions and reported what they've observed during the MTV VMA 2016. Below we round up the six funniest and worst moments from behind-the-camera.
1. Everyone had their eyes set on Beyoncé during her performance.
According to the site, Jaden Smith rushed from backstage to his seat because he must not miss Bey's performance. Jaden's remark, "I gotta see Beyoncé!," was most likely in everyone else's minds too. Fans who watched the Queen took to Twitter to comment how she "slayed" the MTV VMA 2016 with her Lemonade performance.
beyonce's music makes me want to go to a club, set my man's house on fire, start a family, spend all my money, and find God at the same time

2. Jimmy Fallon was nervous before hitting up the stage.
Well, it isn't because he's portraying Ryan Lochte. He got super nervous because he was afraid his stunt would leak, People Magazine noted. Jimmy kept telling his friends, "No selfies before I go on stage."
He did pull it off well don't you think?
"I couldn't tell you even if there was a gun to my head." 🙊#VMAs https://t.co/L55barVLKU

3. Ariana Grande's bro Frankie brought his dancing shoes.
Taylor Swift might have skipped MTV VMA 2016 but someone brought his own dance moves. People Magazine reported that Frankie Grande "partied in and out of his seat" and even had a "major catwalk" down the aisle.
4. Kanye West and the MTV VMA 2016 crowd.
According to People, it was Yeezy who demanded those in the VIP section to stand up as a welcome to Rihanna's opening performance. But, during his extended "free time" at the mic, he tried to reference his wife and Taylor's drama. Well, there were Taylor's supporters out there who chanted out, "Taylor! Taylor! Taylor!" as he spoke. Others, however, shouted back "Yeezy!" as support for the rapper.

5. The Final Five had "lots of love" from celebrity fans.
Although one was missing, the gymnasts met up with new celebrity pals. Kim Kardashian even had a selfie with them.
6. Drake's sweet act for Rihanna became the best highlight of the night.
Who wouldn't feel happy for this moment, right?

Today, after an eye exam I got to/had to schedule a little me time-I needed a couple hours downtown before it was safe for me to drive home. So with dilated pupils that made me look like I had a Monday hangover, I went to Julep for a facial and manicure (they were fantastic by the way) and it was there I got my biggest compliment in months!
"You have kids?!!" my facial expert exclaimed. "I thought you were young, like 21-ish!"
Real compliment or not, I embraced it and went on to reminisce and babble on and on about what my life in my early twenties was like-teaching, traveling, bright-eyed and full of dreams. (The poor girl had no idea what floodgates she was opening!)
And then I came home to blog about all the other places I toodled to today and how wonderful it was and I was about three sentences back downloading pics of some of my purchases when I got some news that blew me out of the water.
A student that I taught in my first year of teaching suddenly passed away. He was a good kid, a talented kid and the type of kid that you want your kid to be when they go to school. And ten-ish years later it made me happy to learn that he was still pursuing the fabulous things you would hope a kid like him would be doing. Just a sad mis-chance and tonight I'm hugging my own kids a little tighter and realizing time is precious. It's devastating where life takes you sometimes- I thought I'd be writing about something like this:
and something from my younger days came up with wrinkles even the best beauty products can't fix.

Revisiting the WIP's
I did a little knitting on mom's sweater today. I am having the hardest time measuring it. The combination of ribbing plus the nature of the cotton I'm using amounts to a lot of give. I can easily get the measurement I'm going for. I can also easily make it a lot bigger AS WELL AS a lot smaller than I'm going for. This is disconcerting. I am really glad that I am making the smallest size, and I think that instead of waiting for my mom to make a duct tape mannequin of herself and shipping it up to me, I'm going to forge ahead into realms unknown. My biggest concern is the size of the armhole. Here's hoping.

Close Encounters Of The Hummus Kind

We call this the "Imma eatchoo" face at our house.
So adorable!
I love the "imma eatchoo" description. Perfect!
Ha! We actually have that face at our home too, but it's the "I'm gonna eat yo face" face. My daughter had/has a tendency to grab your hair til you come in close enough for her to bite or lick your face. Now that she's got 4 teeth, it's definitely not as pleasant – but still cute!
Gotta love Clara's face!
Ok I know your tribe has declared that Clara looks like John, but I am seeing little bits of Sherry coming through…almost like from the nose up she's John and nose down she's Sherry? Am I the only one? Bueller?
Either way she's absolutely gorgeous :)
I totally agree with you, I see SO much of Sherry in her eyes and facial expressions. But I love that you chose this post to say that! Hahaha…
I totally agree! I see Sherry in some facial expressions and John in others! This one though, I think is just Clara. :) She is too much! I also loved the post where she was singing along with Beyonce (or was it Rihana?) You can see her little personality starting to come out! My nephew is 6 months this week and I'm just starting to see his little cheery demeanor! :)
That's so funny that you posted this tonight. My 3 year is trying hummus for the first time and he loves it! This is a big shock because he hates almost all food. He normally takes one look at something and makes a gagging sound. We are enjoying Sabra roasted pine nut hummus and Stacy's naked pita chips. Now he's just eating it off his finger haha!!
#1- adorable.
#2- i felt the same way at lunch yesterday with pita chips/hummus. praying there's no judgment here, i'm going to divulge that i called my husband and said, "hey! it was delicious and i didn't even eat half the bag of pita chips like i normally do! now we can eat more later!" so. delicious.
So adorable! I don't know how you guys get anything done around the house with such a precious (and entertaining) little face to stare at all day! I'm amazed by you guys!
She has such adventurous tastebuds! (Or at least she doesn't seem to be picky. Jealous).
What a priceless face though. :)
I can't believe she likes hummus! Too cute!
Ahhh I love it! Some of my very favorite pictures of my son look like that, except covered in spaghetti-she's so stinking cute!
And double yay for a Sunday post!
Clare has such cute expressions. :) I may have to give my kids hummus and see what they think.
My daughter makes the same face! We call it "the squishy face", and it usually comes with an open mouth where you can see her 8 teeth :)
Precious! My 19th month old just had hummus for the first time the other night and couldn't get enough! :)
I'm child-less, but I loove looking at this little girl! She's adorable and with this face it just makes you wanna smile!! :)
LOL! So cute!
haha, this is hilarious. More posts like this, please!
Oh good lord…that is the cutest picture ever!
Do you guys make your own or take the easy route and buy the pre-made hummus?
Her face is too cute!
Tribe 40 Spice hummus is amazing too! I'm pretty much obsessed :)
Also great on grilled eggplant, as strange as that may sound!
Would it be weird to admit that I make that face (or at least I want to make that face) when I eat hummus, too? It's so yummy! And to think I waited until college to try it!
Ahaha. This is hilarious. Thank you, Clara, for a midday chuckle.
But what a way to go!
Cuteness! My little girl loves hummus, but breaks out in a terrible rash anywhere it touches. Allergic to the tahini in it :( Otherwise I'm pretty sure we'd have a rolodex full of hummus pics! The one time she tried it we were shocked at how much and how fast she shoveled it in!
Have you tried making hummus without tahini? I know it is a main ingredient but I think you could skip it and she would not even notice. I've almost forgotten to put it in before and it tasted fine. Maybe just add a bit of extra olive oil to make up for the tahini's oil.
You can make hummus with peanut butter instead. It tastes a little different, but still good!
Trader Joe's makes a tahini-free variety of hummus if you don't feel like making it from scratch. Maybe other brands make a similar version?
So funny! My little guy (2 years old) was chowing down on hummus and melba toast at his grandparents house just last night. He LOVED the stuff. The only problem is that he had garlic breath afterward that no amount of toddler toothpaste could help!
Our 2 year old was chowing down on hummus and melba toast just last night. He LOVED it. The only problem is that it left him with garlic breath that no amount of toddler tooth paste could cure! Too funny!
What a cute picture! She looks so content :)
If I was that flat bread I'd go out smiling! Look at that face!
too cute! You should so do a side by side of this picture and the picture of Sherry and Burger in the shower after she unclogged the drain. Same face, lol. You can see a ton of Sherry in her here.
What a coincidence! I eat hummus the exact same way!
This made me laugh out loud. Thanks for sharing! :)
We fed our daughter hummus at 6 months. She loved it! She still asks Daddy to make it for her several times a month at 5 years old. She's also the kid who orders sushi at the Japanese steak house and and edamame for an afternoon snack. The more she tries now the more adventurous she'll be later on. My kid even asks for Brussels sprouts, asparagus and cous cous.
I just have to say, I think Clara looks like Sherry. I've always kinda thought that :-)
I agree, I think she's turning into a little mini-Sherry! This picture and the video of her singing and dancing to Rhianna both remind me of Clara's MOMMY!
Saw this and thumbprint bees project and thought of your little family: http://www.ohdeedoh.com/ohdeedoh/holidays/thumbprint-beeschallah-crumbs-157026
Oh yeah! Hummus Time! A fave at our house for Master Cameron (along with tzatziki- haven't tried eggplant dip yet – should be fun :)
BHHHAHAHHAHAHA!!! This just made my day!
Too cute :)
You two are very lucky to have such an adorable little one
Ok.. I usually hate.. as in haaate.. as in Hate with a capital H… pics with food on faces.. but this is so stinkin cute I didn't even look away! Actually, I looked at the picture twice. And that's BIG you guys.. big. Love it :)

Find decorating difficult when you have kids at home? You're probably worrying to keep the house clean when they're running around with paint and toothpaste on their hands, or just making sure that your furniture can last a year!
Living with kids doesn't mean that you have to live with cheap post-dorm furniture. Keep these easy 14 tips in mind, and you can find furnishings that you love that can last you a long time (even with destructive kids in the house).
1. The Super Sofa
Choose dark-colours, machine-washable covers. Also choose sofas with cushions that can flip so you will always have a "good" side for your house guests! Choose sofas with exposed legs so the dust bunnies don't have anywhere to hide! Kids can be extra sensitive to dust, so you have to make sure that your living room is a safe place for them to play.
2. Toughen Up Your Table
Kids love to sit on the floor, so get a low coffee table so your kids can draw and colour in the living room. Also, opt for a stain-resistant surface so those markers don't get on your table! Want the iron-man of all coffee tables? Go for outdoor tables.. indestructible!!
3. Clever Carpet
A parent's biggest worry is having milk or paint poured all over the living room carpet, but yet a carpet is necessary for a soft place for kids to play! Don't worry, just opt for jute ones that are extremely durable, and can add an extra depth in your living room. Wool-blend rugs can also resist stains, but go for those that low-pile.
You can also try modular carpet tiles so you can replace individual tiles when they're stained, instead of replacing the whole rug!
4. Practical Poufs & Easy Bean Bags
Poufs and bean bags are kid's best friends! They're soft, comfy and versatile. Choose easy-to-clean fabrics like vinyl and faux leather. If you can get one that is machine-washable, that's even better! Choose vibrant colours for your living room if you're going with dark colours for the sofa.
5. Wipe Your Walls
Kids walking around with dirty hands? The last thing you want to worry about are your walls - just protect your walls with medium or dark hue of high-gloss paint so it is easier to clean. If you think it is too shiny for the whole room, paint only the bottom half of your walls. Decals can also be a great option to keep your walls clean! Our favourite solution to wipeable walls is chalkboard paint. They are easy to clean and your kids can unleash their inner Picasso!
6. Creative Cushions
Add some fun to your living room with cushions, but opt for those that have washable covers. The best materials to go for are microfiber or polyester.
7. Woody Windows
Wipeable wooden blinds are your best option! They let a lot of sun into your home, which makes your living room feel bigger. Avoid long draping curtains as they're a tripping hazard.
8. Smart Storage
There will never be enough space to store your kid's toys, so create space whenever you can! Get creative with cloth-covered boxes. They are easily stored when you don't need them. Place them on shelves near the ceiling for more space (or if you don't want your kids to have access to them, hehe). This can also help to create the illusion of height in your living room!
9. Mesmerizing Maps
Decorate your living room with artworks, but don't go full steam with a kid theme. Instead, our go-to is always a enlarged map in the living room. Maps are mesmerising to both adults and kids, so your whole family is bound to love it!
A great idea is also to mount up your kid's drawings! It encourages them to be more creative and remind yourself how talented they are.
10. Lift Your Lights
Love an industrial exposed lighting cord? Us too, but it can get dangerous with kids around. If you want them in your living room, make sure they are not within reach of your kids. We encourage wall-mounted lighting so it doesn't become a choking hazard for your kids.
11. Live In Open Space
Choose an open floor plan so the openness encourages your family to get close to each other. Besides, your kids need that extra space to run around!
12. Decorative Books
The easiest and best way to accessorise your living room is with books! They're safe to play with, and it is always good to get them into the habit of reading when they're young.
13. Always Be Prepared For Disasters
Now that you have a beautiful and kid-friendly home, all you need is a stash of wipes and stain removers in key spots around the living room so you can grab them quickly.
14. Swing it!
Kids are messy and destroy everything they touch, but its not the end of the world. Remember to laugh it off with your partner, and be thankful for the joy that your kids bring to the home.

THOUSAND OAKS, California, Dec 2 (Reuters) - After two years of golfing frustration and an absence from the winner's circle despite several close calls, life has got much better for Graeme McDowell in recent weeks, both on and off the course.
The ever-popular Northern Irishman announced his engagement to Kristin Stape last month in Dubai and on Sunday he triumphed by three shots in the World Challenge hosted by Tiger Woods.
For the next 10 weeks, he will enjoy a well-earned break with his wife-to-be in their new home in Orlando while he completes the finishing touches to his own tavern outside the gates of Lake Nona, which he plans to open by late January.
"It's been a very fun week," McDowell told reporters after holding off playing partner Keegan Bradley with a closing four-under-par 68 at a rain-soaked Sherwood Country Club.
"For two years I've been saying things like 'processes' and 'trying to get better' and 'be patient' and hopefully the wins will come. I guess I got fed up with telling everybody that I'm playing well, playing well.
"I'm relieved to get across the line and take some nice confidence into this little off-period I've got coming up. It really is about the processes, but we need to win. That's why we're out here."
California has been a happy hunting ground for McDowell who has twice won the World Challenge at Sherwood and clinched his first major title in the 2010 U.S. Open held at Pebble Beach.
He was especially happy, though, that his fiancée was able to fly into the 'Golden State' on Friday and watch him seal victory in the elite 18-man event where every player was ranked in the world's top 35.
"Hopefully this is the first of many," McDowell smiled. "Getting engaged three or four weeks ago was a huge step in my life, and this has really made it a lot of fun.
"I certainly enter a new chapter in my life which I feel is going to bring a lot of solidity and support to my golf career and this is a great way to begin it.
"She's in support of what I do and loves to try and get out when she can. She flew in Friday night, and thankfully it was worth the trip."
McDowell was mainly frustrated this year because he knew was playing good golf with little reward, though he came close to winning a second major crown after playing in the last group in the final round of the U.S. Open and the British Open.
"Getting in the last group of some major championships, that is what I dream of," said the Northern Irishman, who tied for second at the U.S. Open and finished joint fifth at the British Open.
"Yes, I'd like to win those, but you can't win them all and it is frustrating at this point in time. The game wasn't giving me a huge amount this year and I've not really got a lot to show for myself. You never deserve things in this game, you know.
"You gotta just try and stay in there and try and keep doing it ... this (win) will certainly give me something nice to think about in the off-season." (Reporting by Mark Lamport-Stokes; Editing by Peter Rutherford)

The NBA Draft is only 60 picks, so many players fall through the cracks…especially in a year in which a draft is deep.
The 2015 NBA Draft wasn't the deepest draft in recent memory, but that doesn't mean every potential NBA player was all drafted. It's not the end of the road for these players. They will just need to work a little harder to attain their dream.
Many of these guys will be signed to play in the NBA Summer League. They can showcase their skills in hopes of earning a invite to training camp. Unfortunately for most, they will end up playing overseas or in the NBA Development League. There are still a few every year that surprise everybody and beat the odds to earn an NBA contract.
Here are the best college and international players who went undrafted during the 2015 NBA Draft.

This was streaming on my Pandora the other day and I fell in love. Super chill song with great lyrics. It's called Bloodstream and it was also on an episode of Vampire Diaries. They are an English electronic band from London. The lead singer's voice is enough reason to listen. They are very comparable to Radiohead.

Failure to Diagnose Skin Cancer Melanoma Attorney – Missed Diagnosis Claims
Every year close to 80,000 individuals in the United States are diagnosed with skin cancer including melanoma, basal cell, and squamous cell. A further 10,000 individual will die from the illness this year. Many of those deaths could have been prevented if the proper testing was conducted by the practicing medical physicians including treating dermatologists. Victims who were not diagnosed with skin cancer in time may have the right to seek financial recovery for all damages they have sustained.
About Us: Our law firm is dedicated to providing victims of medical malpractice with the legal representation they need in order to seek recovery for any losses incurred. Below you will find helpful information regarding missed diagnosis of skin cancer, legal implications of medical malpractice claims and the compensation you are entitled too. If you have any further legal questions or if you wish to have your case evaluated by our attorneys feel free to contact our law offices. All legal consultations are provided by our attorney free of charge.
What is Melanoma – How to Properly Diagnose It
Melanoma is the sixth most prevalent cancer amongst residents in the United States. As such primary care physicians and dermatologist need to be aware of risk factors and conduct proper testing in order to properly diagnose the ailment.
Risk factors for developing skin cancer: A primary care doctor and or dermatologists need to be aware of the risk factors associated with the development of the illness. Some of the most significant risk factors include the following.
- Light skin – those with a white racial background have a 7 fold increased chance of developing melanoma.
- Light every, freckles, red or blonde hair.
- A history of sunburns
- Persons with multiple nevi and moles in particular large irregular navi
- Person with moles that change in appearance over time
- Heredity – family history on skin cancer – if two or more family members have had melanoma then a patient stands at a near 100 chance of developing the illness. These patients need to undergo high level of scrutiny during then medical appointments.
- Use of tanning beds.
Testing for the Diagnosis: There are several tests which can be used to rule out skin cancer: One of the tests is described below.
- ABC Mnemonic: A- Asymmetry of the mole, B – Borders of the mole look irregular and or have changed over time C – Alteration in Color and D – The mole or nevi is larger than 6 millimeters in diameter.
How to Establish Primary Care and Dermatologist Malpractice – Can I Sue for Missed Diagnosis of Skin Cancer
There are four elements which need to be established in order to prove negligence based medical malpractice case.
- Duty Owed by the Defendant: Generally medical doctors have a duty to strictly follow guidelines established by the medical specialty they are members of.
- Breach of Duty: Breach of a duty of owed by a medical professional takes place when there is a deviation from the established standard or care.
- Causation: The specific deviation from the standard of care needs to have been the cause of the injuries suffered.
- Damages: There needs to be discernible and diagnosable injuries resulting from the medical error.
Financial Recovery Victims of Medical Malpractice are Entitled too
Victims of medical errors including missed or wrongful diagnosis of a medical condition have the right to seek financial compensation for any damages they have incurred. Average case value or the estimated settlement amount of a case is predicated on factors which are unique to every case. Some of the most important factors in determining case value include the following.
- The extent of the injury suffered.
- Medical costs associated with the harm suffered.
- Future medical and rehabilitation expenses.
- Economic damages – loss of income and future loss of earnings.
- Non-economic damages – pain and suffering, mental anguish.
Filing Wrongful Death Claim On Behalf of Deceased Loved Ones
In California family members of a deceased person have the right to receive financial recovery for the damage caused by the death of a loved one.
Economic Losses: California law does not place a restriction on a claimant right to seek out recovery for economic losses incurred for the death of a loved one. Economic losses can include incurred medical cost, loss of earnings of the deceased victim and the loss of household service the deceased victim provide to the family. Loss of the financial benefits that was provided to the family of the deceased require specific evidence including how many years the person was able to work if there was no death, W-2 statements and tax records. In the state of California the household services which would have been rendered by the deceased victim are considered income and thus are recoverable under the economic damages provision. The value of household service would be the replacement costs of the service rendered. In other words how much money would it take to hire an individual that would be able to perform the same duties as the person who has died.
Non Economic Losses: California Medical Injury Compensation ACT (MICRA): In 1975 the state of California passed laws which greatly restricted the rights of patients who have suffered harm due to the negligent errors of medical professionals. Once such restriction is a $250,000 cap placed on compensation for a victims non-economic damages which include, emotional distress, pain and suffering, mental anguish, and punitive damages. Punitive damages are awarded in claims where the at fault party was acting intentionally to cause damage or acted grossly negligent reckless conduct while performing his or her professional duties.
Cost of Legal Representation for Medical-Malpractice Cases
One of the principal concerns of victims of personal injury involves the seemingly high cost associated with legal representation. In order to alleviate such concerns our law firm has decided to work strictly on a NO WON ZERO FEE contingency fee basis. This means that a client will not have to pay a single penny out of pocket for any or our legal fees or costs. Once the case is settled our firm will take a percentage of the settlement. That percentage is delineated by California MIRCA law. To learn more about our fee structure see here…
Legal Consultation and Case Review Available: Our attorneys are able to provide free no cost legal case review for individuals who have suffered harm in any type of medical malpractice matter. If you have any further legal questions or would like to receive a second opinion contact our law offices.

Book Review: The Entitled by Frank Deford
- Updated: April 3, 2017
Since baseball is so romantic, many have tried their hand at writing a novel on the subject. Perhaps Bernard Mulamud's classic work The Natural, since turned into a movie, is the best known of baseball novels. However, after reading Frank Deford's work The Entitled: A Tale of Modern Baseball, this reviewer has a new favorite.
I would be remiss to acknowledge the book receives extra points from me because the main characters are employees of my favorite team, the Cleveland Indians, but if the book wasn't any good, that wouldn't matter. It is interesting to note that Deford actually started writing the book about the Red Sox in the early 2000s as he wanted a team that hadn't won a World Series in some time. Shortly after starting the book, Boston won the Series in 2004. This led him to change the team of focus to the Chicago White Sox since their drought was significant as well. Low and behold, they won the Series. Thus, Deford's luck seemed to be moving around. Alas, the Indians have yet to receive the same blessing as those two teams since Deford's work was published in 2007, although they did come close both that year and in 2016.
The book really has three main characters, a star player who is an outfielder for the Indians, the manager of the Tribe who is in his first stint as a manager in the Bigs after spending decades as a coach on many levels, and the manager's daughter.
The star player, named Jay Alcazar, is as successful with the ladies off of the field as he is with his skills on it. Unfortunately for his legacy, an event happens at his hotel room that leads those who witnessed it to think he may have forced a woman to unwillingly go to bed with him.
Further unfortunate is that the witness happens to be Alcazar's manager, Howie Traveler, which leaves him in a difficult position of trying to make a choice he may regret regardless of the outcome. Traveler has to manage wanting the best for his team, the player, and the young lady who was in the room with him. Not wanting to make any false accusations, but wanting to do the right thing, Traveler cannot let the vision go until he has had many discussions with those close to him, including Alcazar.
Deford does a great job telling the story of Alcazar's off the field issues, spliced with his relationship with his family in Cuba and his attempts to reunite members of his family, as well as still telling what is going on in the baseball world while all of this is happening.
Clear visions are created in the reader's mind when flipping the pages of this 318 page work. One of the most vivid is a recounting of one of Alcazar's adoring female fans whose love for him caused another crazed fan to rush the outfielder on the field during a game. The crazed fan threatened Alcazar's life and the reader can clearly picture the scene and how Alcazar comes out of it alive.
Deford is best known for his decades of work on NPR as their go to sports voice. His monologues have educated legions of casual sports fans over the years as they have heard his takes during their news programs. The Entitled is an extremely entertaining page turner that will leave the reader wondering what will happen next. It's one of those books that keeps the mind focused on it when you have to put it down bid story. He is the author of 18 books, most recently Over Time: My Life as a Sportswriter which was published in 2012.

Avatier unveiled its new access certification tool at the Gartner Identity and Access Management Summit. The latest addition to Avatier AIMS, Compliance Auditor enables auditing of virtually any system or asset on the network at any time and from any location. It is the industry's first access certification software to offer a universal mobile touch interface, which enables IT professionals and business line managers to approve and revoke access, delete accounts, allow exceptions, attach evidence and send access validation audit messages when performing governance risk and compliance activities and audits.
Compliance Auditor's built-in workflow system automatically determines which application owners or management approvers must perform the audits. Finally, IT risk metrics, also based on real-time data, provide scores on potential security and compliance management risk factors around access so the most sensitive access rights receive the appropriate attention.
Along with Group Enforcer, Compliance Auditor offers the most complete access governance solution available to monitor, manage and mitigate identity access management risk. Click here to learn more about Avatier's latest addition to AIMS!
I had a long flight back from a business meeting recently and started thinking about the future of the Identity Access Management space, and considering the potential our solution has for enterprises. Not surprisingly, I like to push the envelope when thinking about the impact IAM can have on an organization. To date, Avatier has been totally committed to a user-centric versus an IT-centric approach to our business. It's critical if we are going to keep up with the speed of business, that our solutions are adaptive rather than programmatic solutions. It's this process that saves IT a considerable amount of money (one of my customers just told me they are saving over $450 per day and $1.1 million since they installed their Avatier solution). For years, I have felt that an easy user interface that makes self-service simple for the business user, and one based on something everyone is familiar with—like an online store-- would be the "killer app" for IAM. The market appears to be in agreement.
But what's the next opportunity on the horizon? It seems to me that this market deserves a new, innovative approach that expands the role of identity access management in an organization. The industry is looking at too small a niche, when our role should be much, much larger. I really believe that the time has to come to redefine IAM in a way that keeps it current with evolving technology advancements, expanding IT ecosystems, and new business-focused customer demands.
Five years ago, my view of a sea change in the industry was putting IAM into the hands of business users, and all of our product development and sales have been focused on that. After trying several failed IT-focused implementations, organizations have come to us realizing that success does hinge on allowing the right stakeholders to decide who gets access to what, when, how and why. The latest Gartner IAM Summit showed that this realization is starting to take hold everywhere.
But for the most part, these identity management solutions have been limited to providing security and access to data. A more holistic view of the identity access management space should go much further and encompass all aspects of assignment management for the entire organization.
This holistic definition (IAM HD) should provide all the features of requesting, approving, tracking and granting assignments, but not just access to applications — access to all corporate assets, including systems, facilities and equipment. Today, IT managers are buying point solutions to handle this problem. IAM HD avoids today's fragmentation and should put everything into one holistic solution. It's a concept we are already bringing into focus with new technologies that you are going to read about right here. Stay tuned.
Nelson Cicchitto
CEO, Avatier
Avatier helps Gwinnett Medical Center (Gwinnett) tackle efficiency in the face of industry challenges by automating password and provisioning tasks, resulting in reduced help desk calls and greater cost savings.
Doing more with less is a common theme across industries these days, and healthcare is no exception. "The healthcare industry is not unique in the bottom-line pressures it faces," said Rick Allen, vice president of Information Security at Gwinnett. "Reduced growth in Medicare and Medicaid, combined with a rising number of patients, is forcing us to do more — and better — with less."
It is in this environment that Gwinnett is working toward transforming healthcare IT in its community; specifically, ensuring patient information including X-rays, test results, and insurance and payment information — is readily accessible to doctors, nurses and healthcare professionals, whether working onsite or remotely. Access to view such privileged information naturally requires passwords for security, and managing passwords resets for so many physicians and staff can prove challenging for support professionals.
"Our initial investment was in Avatier's enterprise password management system, Password Station, in September 2005," said Mr. Allen. "At the time, requests for Active Directory password resets were overwhelming our help desk, so Password Station was put in place to allow physicians and their office staff — which could be as many as 30 people in one office — to manage, reset or otherwise keep up with their own passwords. This way, we weren't eating our own help desk cycles and were creating more efficiency. And physicians and their staff could more quickly get to the information they needed to be effective in their jobs."
Mr. Allen points to Avatier's reporting module to support his claim of efficiency. "Every morning I get a report of all Password Station Active Directory resets. Armed with this information, I can tie it back to how much help desk money was saved with automatic versus manual resets," he said. And from implementation in 2005 to October 2012, that estimate exceeds $1.1 million, with approximately 73,845 administrative hours saved.
Gwinnett further streamlined its password challenges by purchasing a connector pack from Avatier. With this, Gwinnett was able to synchronize passwords across its Lawson, McKesson HCI and HPF, and Sunquest. Now, when a user changes a password to view information, it also automatically changes his password to place orders. This alone decreased help desk calls, as users had only one password to remember.
But the password synchronization and reset challenge proved to be only part of the problem. After a time, Gwinnett's legacy identity and access management software became unusable. "The system was written for Windows desktop by one of our employees," said Mr. Allen. "When he left Gwinnett, support and maintenance for the system became almost impossible. We couldn't enhance it at all and we couldn't scale it as the company grew. We clearly had to figure something else out."
Indeed, with more than 500 new hires a year, plus a 10 percent annual turnover rate, Gwinnett needed an immediate fix to tackle the overwhelming number of requests for access changes and new access. (In the third quarter of 2012, the number of overall provisioning requests stood at 11,381.) But Mr. Allen didn't have to go far to find a user provisioning software that would rise to the challenge. "When you have a partner that excels in the space, you don't need to look for another to do what they do already," he said. "We were so satisfied with Password Station, we didn't even consider another vendor for user provisioning."
Gwinnett purchased Avatier's user provisioning and access management software Identity Enforcer in July 2011, and, with just one person working on it 50 percent of the time, it was in production that December. As with Password Station, Identity Enforcer integrated easily with Gwinnett's existing hospital information systems, making the rollout seamless and headache-free.
Now, Avatier not only automates password resets and synchronization, it also automates all of Gwinnett's HR user provisioning tasks — whether for new hires, rehires or terminations. Twice a day, the system looks for these changes in position and automatically reconciles it with the appropriate role in the Avatier IT Store. Based on that role, the system knows what kind of access should be given, which groups should be assigned in Active Directory, what menus should be turned on, and so on. For a new hire, this means he is ready to go his first day.
Avatier also streamlines tasks associated with transfers (that is, when a Gwinnett employee is transferred from one position to another), which occur with the most frequency at Gwinnett. While at one time granting and revoking accesses based on the new role was a manual process, these tasks are now automated with Avatier. The system strips out all the different accesses and assigns new accesses for the new role, automatically.
"This has been very well-received by our analysts," said Mr. Allen. "Before Avatier, the analysts got a work order to remove [accesses] in the old role and then a separate work order to add the new ones for the new role. Avatier reconciles these so that there are a lot fewer work orders. Needless to say, that makes [our analysts] very happy."
Mr. Allen credits Avatier with greater efficiency, streamlined business processes and cost benefits — all important elements in a turbulent economy. "Budgets are getting tighter but service demands will always be on the increase," said Mr. Allen. "So anytime I can turn off one system and have another system perform multiple services, it's a good thing for our bottom line. With Avatier, we're doing more with less, and we're more efficient."

Valentine's Day Self Care for (not only) Singles - Top 4 Ways to Be Your Own Valentine

Whether you're single (or in a relationship) and feeling unloved because someone else isn't demonstrating their love or affection, I invite you to challenge the assumption of what defines "lovable" and free yourself in the process.

Shell May Cut 2,800 Jobs After Buying Out BG Group
Shell is set to trim a further 2,800 jobs following its merger with BG Group, in an effort to persuade investors of the feasibility of the £40bn deal.
Shell May Cut 2,800 Jobs After Buying Out BG Group
According to the Anglo Dutch oil company, up to 3% of the company's combined workforce would be let go after the takeover is finalized in early 2016. The move, the company says, will save up to £3.5bn in costs by 2018.
The takeover deal is now at its final stages, as the oil giant has met its final regulatory requirement and has gained approval from the Chinese Ministry of Commerce. Other regulators in Brazil, Australia, EU and US have also approved the takeover.
Earlier this year, Shell laid off up to 7,500 of its employees, bringing the workforce down to 94,000 compared to BG's 5,200 employees, many of whom will be laid off too. BG, based in Reading, may also lose its headquarters when the deal is finalized as Shell looks to find a new headquarters where it would be practical.
Sceptical investors are concerned over the ability of the deal to create value for money amidst falling oil prices. Experts predict that oil oversupply will likely continue into next year.
Standard Life, one of the largest investors in BG and Shell has pointed out to the lack of financial sense in the deal given the historically low oil prices.
David Cumming, head of equities at Standard Life, said, 'At $40 a barrel, it will be very difficult to get this deal to work. You would need oil prices of between $60 and $70."
He added, 'The break fee is quite low, so it is likely that Shell will be pressurized over the next couple of months to explain how the deal will work."
Meanwhile, Ben van Beurden, who is at the forefront of the merger deal, said that the acquisition would, "increase Shell's profitability and will make it a more resilient company at a time when oil and gas prices could remain low for a while."
