Part 1: Corporate Executive Earns PhD Online
Michelle Seyfarth always wanted to earn a PhD and online education gave her that opportunity. For more than fifteen years, Michelle worked in the automotive and staffing services industries. In June 2009, she defended her dissertation and in August of the same year she graduated with her PhD in industrial and organizational psychology. With this knowledge, she founded Seyfarth Diversified Strategies, a coaching and leadership services firm that operates on the belief that every person has the potential to succeed.
Q. Why did you decide to return to school and get your degree and was it always part of your plan?
A. I love to learn and had always wanted to earn a PhD. It took me a while to decide what discipline I wanted to earn the degree in. I have a wide variety of interests and spent almost a year doing research and informational interviews with people in the disciplines in which I was interested. At the time, I also knew I wanted to write, teach, and own my own business. I thought a PhD would help lend some credibility to my experiences.
Q. With so many online schools available, how did you choose?
A. Initially, I thought I would go to a traditional college. However, having been in corporate America for almost ten years, that was not really a viable option for me. Choosing the right online school takes time. I spoke with a variety of schools and online students. I asked a lot of questions. I made my selection based on accreditation, the degree offerings, the specific courses, as well as graduation requirements. The particular school I chose had a requirement of meeting at least three times in a colloquia setting which provided face-to-face learning and networking opportunities.
Q. What were the advantages (and disadvantages) you experienced by getting your degree online?
A. The biggest advantage for me was being able to keep my full-time corporate position which required quite a bit of travel while keeping a full course load every semester. The flexibility of being able to enter the "classroom" 24-7 is a tremendous advantage. I found there to be much more interaction between students online than in a traditional classroom. Students had to read and comment on other student's papers and classroom postings. That often made for excellent exchanges of ideas and we were able to discuss our experiences, both past and present as it related to the concepts being discussed.
A potential disadvantage of getting an online degree is that the student must be very self-motivated and have a great deal of self-direction. If one doesn't have those traits, it may be a struggle adapting to the online classroom environment.
Some online colleges require face-to-face time through workshops or colloquia throughout the degree program. This can be both an advantage and a disadvantage. It's an advantage because you are able to meet and network with your peers and instructors. For me, this was a huge advantage. I met some life-long friends at on-site workshops I was required to attend. It was an advantage when I had to select committee members for my dissertation process as well; I was able to meet them in person and interview them to ensure they would be a good fit for the committee. The disadvantage comes in because it required a week off work and travel expenses.
Q. What are some of the challenges you faced with respect to your degree coursework?
A. Initially, my greatest challenge was time management. For most of my classes we were required to post two papers to the classroom per week. They were short papers though it was still a challenge, in the beginning, to get them done and turned in on time. Another requirement that sometimes posed a challenge was that each student had to post constructive comments to at least two other students' assignments. That meant I had to read the papers of other students and sometimes I would read four or five assignments before I read one I had something to post about.
Periodically an assignment would not be clear to all of the students and depending on the instructor, it might be a few days before he/she makes the clarification available.

Beware Drunken Santas.
I will now tell you about the most hilarious thing I have ever heard of happening in a bar. I only wish I had been there to to see it.
Late last November, the husband and I were paying our bill at the Pike Pub. I asked why they were keeping a very large pumpkin behind the desk. The cashier said that the pumpkin was being kept safe from the Santa-suited-pub-crawlers that would be arriving soon. If left at the bar, the drunk Santas would molest the pumpkin. In fact, the drunk Santas had knocked over and smashed the last pumpkin that was left in the bar.

CINCINNATI (CNS) — Lauren Hill, a Mount St. Joseph University freshman who gained international attention when she pursued her dream of playing college basketball even as her inoperable brain cancer advanced, died overnight April 10. She was 19.
She suffered from a fatal brain cancer called diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma, known as DIPG.
"God has a new game plan for Lauren Hill," said a statement from Tony Aretz, president of Mount St. Joseph University.
"Her light will continue to shine on us all as her supporters worldwide continue her mission of increasing awareness and finding a cure for DIPG," he said. "We are forever grateful to have had Lauren grace our campus with her smile and determined spirit. She has left a powerful legacy. She taught us that every day is a blessing; every moment a gift.
Hill rose to national fame Nov. 2 after Mount St. Joseph, a Catholic university, petitioned the NCAA to open the season early so that she could achieve her dream of playing collegiate basketball. Hill scored a layup to open the game, a highlight that has been viewed on YouTube more than half a million times.
Readers of TheCatholicTelegraph.com, the website of Cincinnati's archdiocesan newspaper, voted Hill's story the No. 2 story of 2014.
The university planned to hold an evening memorial service for Hill April 13.
"As Lauren's family and friends grieve, I am sure I speak for many who will choose to reflect on her incredible life with admiration and find ways to remember her selfless generosity," Aretz said. "We thank God for the gift of Lauren and thank her parents and family for the honor of allowing the Mount to be a part of her life. Her love and laughter will remain in our hearts."
Following her diagnosis, Hill worked tirelessly to raise money and awareness for research on her cancer with the Cure Starts Now Foundation, granting interviews and making appearances even as her conditioned worsened.
"We are saddened to hear that our friend Lauren Hill has passed away this morning," said a foundation posting on Facebook. "Our thoughts and prayers go out to her family during this difficult time. … Throughout her diagnosis Lauren was a tireless advocate and spokesperson for the Cure Starts Now's efforts to find the 'homerun cure.' Lauren captured the hearts of people worldwide with her tenacity and determination to play in her first collegiate basketball game with her Mount St. Joseph University team."
The Cure Starts Now added that Hill's efforts have raised $1.4 million for research on diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma.
In a commentary in The Catholic Telegraph last November, John Stegeman, the paper's new media editor, called Hill "a witness to life."
"Various reports suggest Hill has until December to live. It isn't clear," he wrote. "She knows the end of her life is coming, but she doesn't know when. In the time she has, she will live more fully than many of us ever do. Lauren Hill is truly dying with dignity.
"There is a school of thought in America that doesn't accept death. Some people would like to see cancer and other terminal patients try every last experimental drug until their final breath," he continued. "Others accept that a time comes when the miracle that is modern medicine can do no more to help, and at that time embrace palliative care. Still others advocate for the path of (Brittany) Maynard."
Maynard, 29, also had terminal brain cancer. She took a lethal dose of drugs to end her life in Oregon last November.
"I don't know exactly how I'd react to a terminal diagnosis. But I do have hope," said Stegeman. "Whenever I die — be it sudden or prolonged, painful or painless — I pray to God that I face it like Lauren Hill."

Happy Birthday, Lisa Hochstein!
Today is the former #RHOM star (and new mom)'s birthday!
July has been a pretty big month for Real Housewives of Miami star Lisa Hochstein. She kicked it off by becoming a mom to her son, Logan, on July 3, and now she's celebrating her own birthday on July 24!
With so much going on in her life (including hitting the town for Miami Swim Week and an ongoing home renovation), we hope she takes some time to celebrate her big day. Either way, we're going to pay homage to her by taking a look at some of her best (new) mommy moments (so far)!
Being a mom doesn't mean you have to give up Chanel. We're pretty sure Coco thought that at some point.
Mommy, baby and doggie make three!
All we can say is "awww!"
Lisa has that new mom glow (with some help from the sun).
It's the whole family! We see you there daddy Lenny!
Even from day one, Lisa was a natural with Logan!
And, for the record, babies do make for pretty great birthday gifts.

Coast to Coast, Gore Celebrates Hydrogen & Fuel Cell Day
Justin Lewis
On October 4, Gore Associates at the Gore Capabilities Center in Newark, Delaware, and at the Gore Innovation Center in Santa Clara, California joined the nation in celebrating the third annual National Hydrogen and Fuel Cell Day.
In a press release, Gore highlighted its role as the leading supplier of PEM (proton exchange membrane) fuel cell technology. Since Gore entered the fuel cell industry in the early '80s, Gore Fuel Cell Components have been used in diverse applications such as combined heat and power generators for residences, material handling equipment (fork lifts), portable chargers for mobile phones and unmanned aerial vehicles (drones).
GORE-SELECT® Membranes are also used in commercial fuel cell vehicles such as the Toyota Mirai and the Honda Clarity Fuel Cell.
"It is fitting that we celebrated this event on the East Coast and in California," said Laura Geiman, US Sales Leader for Gore Fuel Cell Technologies. "These are both areas that are making significant investments in hydrogen infrastructure—hydrogen highways—that will enable wide adoption of this zero-emission, zero-compromise transportation."

CBS, NBC Carve Up Thursday
Thursday night was all CBS and NBC, with the rest of the networks fighting over the leftovers, and there weren't many of those.
In fact, CBS (8.6/22 in the 18-49 demo) and NBC (7.3/19) each beat all the other networks combined.
CBS won on the strength of Survivor, CSI and Without A Trace, with only the last show failing to win its time period.
NBC was a strong second with solid outings from Joey (5.0/14), Will & Grace (5.5/14) Apprentice and ER. ER won its 10 p.m. time period with a 9.0/23, second only to CSI's 11.6/27 for the night.
CSI drew a crowd for its hundredth episode, as it has for the previous 99 (at a party in L.A., CBS Chairman Les Moonves reportedly said the show was the best buy the network had ever made).
Fox was in a distant third at a 2.3/6 for The O.C. and North Shore, the latter which went south, placing fifth in its 9-10 time period, including being beaten by UPN's WWE Smackdown.
It's likely nobody was celebrating at ABC, whose season has been a roller coaster of feast (Sunday jumps to mind) and relative famine. Thursday was the latter, with the network recording a 1.8/5 average in 18-49s for fourth place with Extreme Makeover and two editions of Prime Time, the first of which also came in fifth behind UPN, this time a distant fifth at a 1.4/3 vs. UPN's 1.9/5 for Smackdown.
ABC was even way down compared to last Thursday night, when it got a 3.0 rating for Saving Private Ryan, even though the show wasn't cleared in as much as a third of the country, according to some reports.
In a close fifth for the night was UPN at a 1.7/4 for wrestling. The WB was a distant sixth. It managed a whole .9/2 for the movie, The Whole Nine Yards.

Hard Choices, session 3
Today's class covered Education, which was also the focus of my previous post. The general consensus was that there's not much the schools can change that will improve things. Also, the modest experiments in the private sector haven't demonstrated significant improvements either. We discussed a lot of cultural factors including race, class, lack of good role models in minority communities, the women's movement, how Vietnam and Watergate seem to have changed society, not necessarily for the better.
The next class is on crime and punishment.

Courting has improved more than the many years, especially with the progression of the web and the enhancement of approaches of interaction. This signifies that the globe has come to be a more compact place due to the fact individuals are in a position to converse with just about everyone they want to in the globe, and day them as properly.
Whilst numerous individuals still favor the traditional type of dating, like inquiring a lady out and getting her to a great meal, online dating sites have improved all that. Right now, numerous individuals (younger and previous) can have web dates which provide just as properly has regular dates. Because the aim of the total practical experience is to get to know the other person greater, then accomplishing it more than the web suffices just as properly.
Regular dating may well generally be found as the extra passionate type of dating due to the fact there is experience-to-experience conference and extra actual physical call than what dating singles may well practical experience more than the web. Remarkably ample, numerous of the strongest associations have been founded initially on online dating sites. Some American gentlemen search for dating associations with women of all ages from other pieces of the globe due to the fact they have values that they admire and would like to have in their lives. One instance is how American gentlemen generally obtain their wives more than the web by dating companies that match them up with attractive Russian women of all ages.
There are pros to the two types of dating. Regular dating is deemed extra passionate and extra interpersonal interaction is feasible. World wide web dating permits individuals from all around the globe to be a section of the larger sized dating community and permits them to obtain their soul mates that may well be midway throughout the globe. Nonetheless, the objectives of the two types of dating is to have individuals satisfy every other and get to know every other greater for a opportunity relationship.
Whilst the argument between which sort of dating may well go on, the simple actuality is the sort of dating that will operate for you is the just one that you favor. Some individuals may well still want to exercise the traditional type of dating although some others may well adhere to web dating. Either way, it doesn?t hurt to try either.

The discussion of divorce and remarriage among Catholics can be a sensitive issue; there are many misunderstandings of Church teachings in this area. However, few Catholic families remain untouched by the pain and sadness of marital breakup, or the questions raised by the process used to investigate the validity of a previous marriage.
What is Marriage?
In order to understand what the Church means when it issues a Declaration of Nullity it is helpful to look first at the Church's understanding of marriage. Marriage is a covenant between a man and a woman which establishes a partnership for life. Marriage is a vocation which fosters the good of the spouses and naturally leads to the procreation and education of children. Marriage is a sacrament, as St. Paul taught in the New Testament (Eph. 5).
A number of elements must come together for the sacrament of marriage to occur. The first is the "Canonical Form" of marriage: a Catholic must ordinarily be married within a Catholic church and before a priest or deacon. The requirements for the Canonical Form of marriage applies only to Catholic parties, so we would recognize the marriage of two persons who are not Catholic, even if they did not marry in a church ceremony or religious service.
However, following the proper canonical form of marriage is not all that is necessary for a valid sacramental marriage to take place. The couple must also freely and knowingly choose to enter marriage as the Church understands marriage. This is "Marital Consent." A number of intentions must be made by the couple at the time of marriage in order for consent to be valid, that is, in order to establish the unbreakable bond between husband and wife that is a sacramental marriage. The couple must understand what marriage is and they must intend their marriage to be a lifelong partnership which is open to children. They must intend fidelity and the mutual good of one another. They must also have the physical and psychological ability to follow through on these intentions.
When all of the above factors are brought together, a sacramental, indissoluble union is established by God. If a Catholic spouse marries with the proper Canonical Form and with at least the semblance of the necessary intentions given through the marriage vows, we recognize the enduring marriage bond which cannot be dissolved, even if the civil government, through divorce, no longer recognizes that a marriage exists.
When Christians marry in this way, we believe that God has made the two persons one in the sacrament of marriage (cf. Mt. 19:5). Because Jesus taught the indissolubility of marriage—"therefore, let no one separate what God has joined" (Mt. 19:6)—we believe that it is impossible for any human power to break the God-made bond, or sacramental covenant, between husband and wife.
So, What Exactly is a Declaration of Nullity?
If a Catholic spouse did not follow the Canonical Form of marriage, outlined above, then a relatively simple process can be followed in order to receive a Declaration of Nullity based on a Lack of Canonical Form. But if proper Canonical Form was observed, or if it was not required—for members of other faith traditions, for example—a second type of process examines Marital Consent, that is, the intentions and abilities of the spouses at the time of marriage. This process is called a Formal Case. It is possible to have two persons legally married, but never actually joined together by God in a sacramental union. The Formal Case process is complex, detailed, and is lengthy—approximately 9 to 12 months, longer for a long-term marriage.
In either the Lack of Form Case or the Formal Case we must be very clear: the Decree of Nullity is not a "Catholic Divorce." The Church does not have the power to divorce any persons who have been united by God. A Decree of Nullity states that the enduring bond of the sacrament of marriage was never present from the very beginning of the marriage. If this is decided by a church Tribunal, the spouses are free to marry again.
It must also be made clear that a Decree of Nullity in no way affects the legitimacy of children of such a previous marriage, and has no bearing on other natural and civil obligations such as child support or custody. A church Decree of Nullity does not imply that the marriage never existed, but only that it did not have the character of a sacrament. The Church does not seek to assign blame for the marriage breakup to any of the persons involved.
Does a Divorce affect my Status in the Catholic Church?
Please remember that a divorce alone would not affect, or hinder in any way, your participation in the Catholic Church. A divorced Catholic is free to receive the sacraments. However, if you are divorced and remarried without a Decree of Nullity (and your former spouse is still living) a problem does arise. Similarly, if your spouse was previously married and has not received a Decree of Nullity from a Tribunal, there is a problem. In such circumstances, you may not partake of the sacraments, including the reception of Holy Communion. We respect all marriages, even those which have ended in a civil divorce.
Is it ever possible to enter a second marriage?
Every prior marriage must be examined, since each is presumed to be valid with a lasting and lifelong commitment. Until it is shown otherwise through the ministry of the Tribunal, no person is free to enter into another Catholic Church marriage without the appearance or occasion of serious sin. To enter into such a union with a Catholic would remove him or her from the sacramental life of the Church, including the reception of Holy Communion
If you or your current spouse are divorced, and remarried outside of the Catholic Church, please consider seeking the healing that an investigation for a Decree of Nullity can bring to you and which will enable you to return to a full participation in the sacramental life of the Church.
How Would I Begin the Decree of Nullity Process?
You should first consult a priest or deacon in your parish who will be able to answer your questions and help determine what type of Tribunal case to begin. Once completed, the parish will then forward your paperwork to the Tribunal. The Tribunal then studies the marriage and decides if this sacramental bond was present in the marriage or not.
Some Practical Points
After all the necessary information has been gathered, you will need to wait for a decision of the Tribunal. This wait can be frustrating, as it may take many months. Because of the number of marriage cases pending before the Tribunal and the detailed and careful process with which each one is handled, it is never possible to expedite any one's request for a declaration of nullity, nor to promise a definite date of conclusion, nor even to promise a favorable decision. In light of this, the priest or deacon working with you is not able, nor permitted to set the date for any future wedding.
A Few Final Comments
While this process can bring up painful memories from the past, we have experienced that most persons have found new strength, understanding, and healing by discussing their prior marriage with a person who represents the Church. It is the sincere intention of the Tribunal that this entire process be, for you and all involved, a time for healing and insight. All those involved in helping you through this process understand their work as a ministry.
We understand and appreciate the effort any person needs to put forth when seeking a Declaration of Nullity. The process could be seen as an obstacle to your being married within the Catholic Church with your intended spouse. However, it could also be seen as a means of personal and spiritual growth toward the happiness you were meant to enjoy with God. Please don't allow any questions or doubts to keep you from approaching the Tribunal about a former marriage. Talk over your concerns with a priest or any other knowledgeable Catholic with which you feel comfortable.
May God bless you as you seek communion with us in the Catholic faith. If you are divorced, may the Lord's mercy touch the memories of this painful time in your life through the Church. Should you decide to seek a Declaration of Nullity, may it be a source of healing for you.

Since our offices are based in Treviso, Italy, we thought that Patrick would finally end up back in the office. But Colors is growing and Pat is in hot demand. Now he's been called to the other side of the world.
This Sunday, Patrick will speak at Tedx Shanghai, China. He'll be discussing Colors Magazine, as well as the Survival Guides concept and series. The Tedx conference theme is "I am Chinese". Patrick is not, in fact, Chinese. But starting from #83- Happiness, Colors Magazine is now printed in a bilingual English-Chinese edition, in complement to our Spanish, French, Italian and Korean editions.
Those abroad can tune into the live stream.

Expanding role for radiotherapy in metastatic non-small cell lung cancer in the era of targeted therapy and immuno-oncology
Radiotherapy for advanced stage non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) has traditionally been administered with palliative intent. However, an emergence of data from retrospective studies and, more recently, prospective trials has indicated the potential of using stereotactic ablative radiotherapy (SABR), in combination with known cytotoxic therapies, targeted therapies, and immunotherapeutic agents, to play a curative rather than palliative role in targeting sites of oligometastatic disease. Analysis of patterns of failure for oligometastatic NSCLC after first-line systemic therapy has revealed that failure occurs prevalently at sites of gross disease present at baseline rather than at new disease sites (1), and it has been postulated that local ablation of metastases could limit progenitor sites of new metastatic spread and extend progression free survival (PFS).
The oligometastatic state (Figure 1) has been recognized as an intermediate classification of advanced NSCLC in which disease has spread to a limited number of anatomic sites (2). Accordingly, these oligometastatic sites have been demonstrated to display clonal heterogeneity, inducing differential responses to systemic therapies (3). Traditional treatment paradigm has dictated that first-line systemic therapy is followed by maintenance therapy, and a new systemic therapy is initiated at the time of systemic failure, regardless of failure extent or magnitude. Local therapy, and specifically ablative radiotherapy, can exploit the inherent heterogeneity of oligoprogressive disease sites by eradicating site-limited disease failure which appears to have a different biology than system-wide progression. In a slightly different paradigm, radiotherapy in a consolidative setting can ablate remaining sites of disease after first-line systemic therapy, effectively eliminating resistant tumor deposits. Both approaches provide a way to extend the window of response and allow for the prevention of premature termination of a systemic therapy that resulted in site-limited failure. Collectively, these approaches point to consolidative radiotherapy as a means to achieving longer PFS, and potentially extend overall survival in the context of treating oligometastatic disease sites.
The multi-institutional phase II study conducted by the University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center, the London Health Sciences Center, and the University of Colorado addressed the prospective application of local consolidative therapy after first-line systemic therapy. Forty-nine patients with stage IV NSCLC were randomized 1:1 to receive either maintenance therapy alone or local consolidative therapy (radiotherapy, chemoradiotherapy or surgery) followed by maintenance therapy. The study revealed that PFS was significantly longer for the patient cohort receiving local consolidative therapy than for the patient cohort in the maintenance therapy arm of the trial: median PFS 11.93 vs. 3.9 months (HR =0.35; 90% CI: 0.18–0.66; P=0.0054), and 1-year PFS 48% vs. 20% (4).
In an analogous study, the single institution phase II trial conducted at the Harold C. Simmons Comprehensive Cancer Center at the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center evaluated the benefit of consolidative radiotherapy in oligometastatic NSCLC. Twenty-nine patients were randomized 1:1 to either maintenance chemotherapy alone or SABR followed by maintenance chemotherapy. Paralleling the previous findings, median PFS was found to be 9.7 months for patients in the consolidative radiotherapy cohort, compared to 3.5 months for patients in the maintenance therapy arm (HR =0.304; 95% CI: 0.113–0.815; P=0.01). Of the 15 patients in the maintenance arm, 10 experienced progressions, with 7 of the 10 progression events occurring at original tumor sites; in the SABR arm of the study, only 4 out of 14 treated patients progressed, none within the radiated fields (5).
Both studies were stopped early to accrual after interim analysis determined local consolidative therapy to have a statistically significant, incontrovertible PFS benefit, which was defined as the primary study endpoint. PFS as the primary endpoint was advantageous both because of the early study termination and interim analysis, which precluded determination of the overall survival benefit, and the nature of PFS. PFS is not subject to the confounding effects of crossover and subsequent treatments, which complicated both studies, whereby patients in the maintenance therapy group received consolidative therapy. Three MD Anderson patients crossed over prior to progression (the PFS endpoint was not reached) and were censored at the time of crossover; two patients at the University of Texas crossed over to the SABR arm at oligoprogression.
While finding the survival advantage continues to prove difficult due to treatment crossover, scrupulous patient selection could aid in showing the survival advantage through vigilant follow-up and careful design. Patient selection criteria differed between the two studies in that the University of Texas study selected for patients with five or fewer sites of metastatic disease, while the MD Anderson study screened for patients with three or fewer metastatic disease lesions after first-line therapy. This difference emphasizes the importance of optimal patient selection criteria in terms of the extent of disease. Future trial design could benefit from carefully including patients with truly limited oligometastatic disease at presentation, as these patients have the highest potential to derive an overall survival benefit with consolidative local therapy to all sites of disease. Separation of patients with mutation positive NSCLC and patients with other potential prognostic factors could additionally reveal significant findings.
The treatment of patients with mutation positive NSCLC has progressively shifted towards molecular-guided therapies, and studies have shown a comparative advantage of tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) over standard chemotherapy. Yet while this shift towards targeted molecular therapy has heralded advances in disease-specific treatments, radiotherapy has remained in the background as a salvage therapy. Correspondingly, studies investigating the novel application of radiotherapy as a consolidative treatment have predominantly excluded EGFR and ALK mutation positive NSCLC, as did the University of Texas trial. The MD Anderson trial allowed for the enrollment of a wider range of patients and included patients having been treated with EGFR or ALK inhibitors. Although non-discriminatory for mutations largely because previous trials with more stringent patient selection criteria failed due to poor accrual, the MD Anderson study highlighted the use of radiotherapy beyond salvage therapy, particularly in NSCLC with EGFR or ALK mutations. While not analyzed separately because of the limited sample size, patients with mutation positive NSCLC accounted for 20% of the cohort receiving local consolidative therapy. The survival benefit of consolidative radiotherapy for this patient subset requires further corroboration, but these early results suggest the prospective application of radiotherapy beyond its limited use as salvage therapy.
As molecular-guided therapies have gained attention for mutation positive disease, efforts have increased to evaluate the role of radiotherapy at the forefront of treatment for mutation positive NSCLC. Currently, the London Institute of Cancer research is conducting the HALT trial in an effort to discern the benefit of radiotherapy ablation of oligoprogressive disease sites in prolonging response to TKI therapy, with patient selection criteria requiring confirmed treatment response to TKI therapy and three or fewer sites of oligoprogressive disease after inevitable therapy resistance (6) with a primary endpoint of PFS.
A fundamental difficulty of TKI therapy is the eventual development of acquired resistance. Approximately 60% of patients acquire the EGFR T790M resistance mutation, and this key clinical subset of patients has been successfully targeted by the third-generation TKI osimertinib (7). The AURA trial investigated the application of osimertinib as a first-line therapy in EGFR-mutated NSCLC patients, revealing improved PFS and suggesting a benefit to treating patients with this third-generation TKI upfront rather than after progression (8). Osimertinib as a front-line therapy may serve to increase the window of treatment response to TKI therapy—combined with radiotherapy, this treatment could allow for an even greater extension of response, with radiotherapy serving to ablate TKI-resistant disease sites. Future trials are necessary to investigate this prospective cooperative effect with more effective third-generation TKI such as osimertinib. While no single solution exists, in limited oligometastatic NSCLC, TKI therapy followed by consolidative radiotherapy or radiotherapy to treat oligoprogressive disease, as well as initial radiotherapy followed by TKIs, should be considered.
Disease that has progressed on immunotherapy—in the same manner as with chemotherapy—is also treated with salvage radiotherapy. A second treatment setting elucidated here is consolidative, whereby radiotherapy would target sites of persistent disease before immunotherapeutic failure. Using SABR as a consolidative therapy before progression might improve overall survival, and would again allow for the continuation of immunotherapeutic drugs for a longer duration. Radiotherapy has been noted to boost the immune response and sensitize patients to immunotherapeutic agents, and it could serve to improve survival synergistically with immunotherapy through both local and abscopal effects (9). The recent PACIFIC trial—a prospective study evaluating consolidative therapy with the PD-L1 inhibitor durvalumab after chemoradiotherapy for locally advanced NSCLC (10)—evidenced the success of definitive chemoradiotherapy treatment of sites of initially bulky disease followed by immunotherapy. Similar success may be attainable for oligometastatic NSCLC treated with this combination, and future trials are indicated to determine whether such treatment will confer the survival advantage of the previously shown synergy between immunotherapy and radiotherapy.
Numerous trials have suggested the efficacy of radiotherapy in combination with immunotherapy, chemotherapy, and TKIs in prolonging PFS; however, few have demonstrated a clear overall survival benefit. As more data accumulates in support of the use of local consolidative therapy, the challenge remains to further substantiate these preliminary findings with clinical trials designed to determine overall survival benefit which can be diluted by cross-over of the patients from the control arm to the experimental arm. This again emphasized the importance of novel trial design and careful patient selection to unequivocally prove the value of radiotherapy in the era of targeted therapy and immune-oncology.

The Alcon Manufacturing Ltd. plant in Sinking Spring, Pa., process improvement is led by the quality assurance division. At Command Medical Products in Ormand Beach, Fla., the same chore is overseen by the vice president of operations. At other companies, management might try to involve anyone and everyone, down to the shop floor.\<\/p\>\r\n\r\n\
Process improvement is one of those things everyone in the C-suite and the boardroom talks about; indeed, the point of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, data privacy rules, and a host of other regulations is to force companies to examine their business processes for flaws, and management gurus constantly say companies should use the opportunity to improve processes while they're at it.\<\/p\>\r\n\r\n\
Alcon's Pennsylvania facility, which employs roughly 500, makes tiny surgical devices. The company, known for its eye care products, is subject to Food and Drug Administration regulations, and its process improvement initiatives are lead by the quality assurance unit, which includes regulatory affairs and compliance.\<\/p\>\r\n\r\n\
Among the many federal regulations Alcon complies with, an FDA rule known as \21 CFR Part 11\<\/a\> is one of the most stringent, says Curt Gendler, senior validation engineer at Alcon. The rule requires companies to maintain electronic records that are secure, traceable, and quickly retrievable.\<\/p\>\r\n\r\n\
About three years ago, the quality assurance department began deploying \statistical process control software\<\/a\> from \InfinityQS International\<\/strong\> to automate data collection and analysis. The software uses statistical analysis to generate data via control charts and alerts. At the same time it improves processes for the purpose of compliance, it also helps improve operational efficiencies, Gendler says. Because many of the tiny medical components made at the plant must be crafted by hand, the company faces considerable challenges generating process improvement through automation.\<\/p\>\r\n\r\n\
"Our engineers are always looking at how the human does this and how we can do it a little faster and still maintain the artisan approach," Gendler says. "We won't forego quality for speed. That will never happen."\<\/p\>\r\n\r\n\
The InfinityQS software allowed Alcon to improve speed by incorporating quality control into its manufacturing. The product is inspected at each step of production, rather than at the end only. Production workers have more control over the process, and the potential for errors is reduced. The first implementation reduced inspection time by about 50 minutes per lot, saving the company the equivalent of one full-time employee, Gendler says.\<\/p\>\r\n\r\n\
While Alcon's quality assurance experts lead process improvement, projects are always a team effort, with a heavy reliance on IT for support, Gendler says; his own position, while officially deemed one of quality assurance, in reality involves equal doses of quality assurance and IT. Gendler is a certified project manager, Microsoft Certified Systems Engineer, and Certified Software Quality Engineer.\<\/p\>\r\n

Running from Loughborough Central to Leicester North (the former Belgrave and Birstall station) on the former Great Central main line, the preserved Great Central is uniquely Britain's only double track main line.
Starting from Loughborough, the double track runs south through Quorn & Woodhouse station. At Quorn & Woodhouse there is a Bistro bar, wartime cafe, sidings, goods shed, turntable and travelling post office nets.
As the line travels south it passes over Swithland reservoir before arriving into Swithland sidings. Here a set of loops on the up and down line are used intensively during gala events with slow and goods trains looped for longer distance passenger workings. Along with sidings and carriage shed, a short branch; 'The Mountsorrel' line branches off from here.
The line finally reaches Rothley station were the double track section ends. Here the Railway Vehicle Preservation society's workshops are based. South of here the line is single tracked to Leicester North, the southern terminus. It is hoped a museum will be located here in the future.
The line is currently on a push to extend north and join up with the Great Central Railway Nottingham. This involves building a new bridge over the Midland Main Line.

42.6 pounds to go until I'm at 250. I can't even remember the last time I was in the 200s. My plan was to go to the gym this morning but insomnia got the best of me last night. So instead I'm going to workout in the house. Something is better than nothing.
My hair is falling out like crazy. Yes I was well aware of this "side effect" from gastric bypass but when it actually starts happening, phew, it's a moment that's for sure. I'm now using a regime of Redken products that have Biotin in them, taking 10,000mcg of Biotin daily, and this weekend I started back to monitoring my protein. Hopefully all of this will help the process along a bit.
This weekend my emotions were all over the place and I've been feeling a bit low lately so I definitely think it's time to start working out more. When I was working out regularly I felt SO much better. So that's what I'm off to do. Have a great week!!

///M Almighty : BMW M5 (E39)
Mon, 08/09/2010 - 15:45 — admin
Cult Car Central revisits the BMW M5 (E39)
What is it about the older 'M' cars and their fastidious custodians...? (Not that we're complaining, of course!) First, it was the Avus Blue E36 M3 with its full set of service records and now this striking Le Mans Blue E39 M5 (it's still on its original coat of paint, by the way).
When it's overcast, it's easy enough to dismiss this colour as being a little drab; it's only under the bright sunlight that the full glory of the Le Mans Blue really shines forth.
Hardly more than a handful of these stealthy beasts continue to trawl the streets of Singapore (about 3, including this one). In fact, to most passers-by, the E39 M5 is nothing more than an 'old 5-Series' - an 'invisible supercar', if you will - since this car was conceived during an era where the aggressive overtures that are now so commonplace in the latest performance/sports cars were subtle, as opposed to the in-your-face results we see so much of today.
Everything about this super sedan was low-key, yet its purposeful stance and barely noticeable addenda were more than sufficient to subtly ward off potential challengers, which really went a long way in demonstrating that in this case, less certainly is more.
Even the 18-inch M double-spoke wheels are an exercise in understatement... since they were finished in a discreet 'shadow chrome', as opposed to the highly polished sheen favoured by many of today's performance cars.
Originally fitted were lightweight compound brakes, which were found on the front axles of the E36 M3, M Roadster, M Coupe and the earlier E34 M5, but fitted to front and rear of the E39 M5.
Like the other 'M' cars, the M5's body-kit is intended to be first and foremost effective, with aesthetics following behind in second place. Even today, many enthusiasts feel that the E39 boasts a well-balanced design and has the best proportions of all the 5 Series, including the latest F10.
Stay on its tail at your own peril as the low growl from the pipes erupts into a vicious snarl as the driver downshifts and WOTs into the horizon.
The front spoiler integrates oval foglights and features a larger cooling inlet, while the base has been designed in adherence to the Venturi Principle to reduce lift on the front axle by up to 50 per cent.
Even that nondescript boot-lid spoiler (a delete option) is functional and increases down-force by up to 35 per cent (which translates to almost 50kg at the car's 248km/h electronically-limited top speed)!
On its own, the V8's technical highlights could form the basis of an entire article. For the purposes of brevity, some of the features include: infinitely variable, map-controlled double-VANOS valve timing, drive-by-wire throttle, individual throttle butterfly control (ITBC: a first on a M car) and oil circulation control to combat the intense lateral forces that can potentially be generated by the M5.
The 5L V8 in the E39 M5 boasts similar traits to Audi's charismatically vocal 4.2L V8 in the discontinued RS 4 (Sedan and Avant) (that also sees service in the R8, S5 Coupe and latest RS 5 - RS 5 in Ascari).
Apart from their formidable low-end and low-speed tractability, these V8s are also capable of gathering their tsunami reserves of torque in a ferocious display of firepower when needed.V10 found in the E60 M5 and E63 M6 (this V10 is also a 5L, displacing 4999cc to be exact), there's plenty of poke available from the E39 M5's V8 at low speeds, which can quickly be transformed into an elemental forward propulsive force that is capable of inflicting some serious grevious bodily harm on one's internal organs.
In fact, almost 77 per cent of the V8's maximum torque (385Nm) is available from 1000rpm, with 96 per cent available (480Nm) at 2000rpm.
The owner recently sent the car in (unfortunately Singapore's M dealer, Munich Automobiles, was not open for technical operations yet, so it was done at another specialist) to sort out the VANOS solenoids, as well as a refresh of the fuel system and the car has never run better in terms of power and fuel consumption.
The 65L tank serves up approximately 450km in mixed driving, which works out to approximately 7km/L and this doesn't fall far from BMW's figures in the E39 media material, which gives a figure of 13.9L/100km for the combined cycle - this works out to about 7.2L/km.
Even more astounding is the ease at which it clears 150km/h, which borders on the ludicrous (0-160km/h in 11.6 seconds) and all with the engine barely taxed - perfect then, as a comfortable cruiser for those long cross-country jaunts up North... or so we hear, since we don't condone such speeds on Singapore roads.E46 M3 Coupe, the M5's dials are finished in an 'urban warfare' matte grey and also feature the same LED indicators (to show how high one can rev the engine safely, which progressively wink-out as the engine warms up to optimum operating temperatures from a cold-start).
Rather than to test the limits, we preferred to let the engine fully warm up before unleashing the beast within. In a straight-line with pedal floored to the metal, the red-line comes up all too quickly and the risk is running out of road before the M5 even comes close to running out of puff.CNS), the clutch pedal never requires thighs of thunder to operate; the gear-changes of the Getrag 6-Speed box are snickety-slick and the throw distance is pretty decent for a stock set-up.
Yes, although BMW's SMG - Sequential M Gearbox - 'automated manual' transmission was already available on the earlier E36 M3 and the E46 M3, the E39 M5 was only available in a manual transmission... as befits all the real sportscars of that era.
Like the other pre-Joy Ultimate Driving Machines of that era, the 'M' ambience was always distinctive. The Blue-Red illuminated back-light of the 'M' gearknob is certainly a fine cherry topping for the car that never comes across as overly garish.
With the exception of the well-worn gear-knob, the rest of the interior is impeccable - practically the same condition as the day it first left the showroom... some 9 years ago!
The equipment level is high, but never too much... basically, if it's not there, you're unlikely to need it.
Unlike the newer cars, there is no 'M' button on the steering wheel (somewhat like the 'S' button in the Audi RS 4) to quickly engage one's preferred throttle-map, steering response or dynamic damping settings.
With the close ratio 6-Speed gearbox and the fat slab of torque, there's so much firepower on tap through the gas pedal that could easily overwhelm the sticky 18-inch low profile rubber that we felt it best to respect the car even with the DSC fully engaged.
With multi-adjustable everything (seats, steering wheel, mirrors, pull-out thigh support), the driving position is easily customised and the E39 is one of those cars that never 'feels big' on the road. It's easy to gauge the proportions and placing the car where you want was never easier, especially when one needs to squeeze into the narrow gaps in traffic.
The car's ride is firm, but never unduly hard and the body roll is well-controlled. Even during high-speed runs, the back end always feels planted with no eerie floatiness that afflicts lesser cars.
A 25 per cent locking LSD (Limited Slip Differential) also enhances the car's dynamics, which is cooled by an underbody venturi effect (thanks to the front spoiler design) that accelerates cooling air towards the rear axle. The M5's chassis is perfectly capable of pulling 1.2g of lateral acceleration... no mean feat even in light of today's offerings.

Breaking News: Woman killed by laundry
A local woman was caught in an avalanche of dirty clothes today, and died from asphyxiation due to sock fumes.
Her children, who were nearby, recall the scene as horrifying.
"We couldn't even help her," the oldest boy said. "We are allergic to housework of any kind."
Sources say that there were signs this might happen and some are convinced it wasn't an accident.
"I think she knew," said her husband. "She always said that the laundry would eventually kill her."

At Thain Wildbur we can advise businesses in the Norfolk area on the possible tax advantages of employing your spouse in the firm. Here is an overview of the issues.
When considering the overall tax position of your family, it is worth considering employing your spouse in your business.
This is a means of transferring income from you to your spouse. It is likely to show a tax saving if your spouse has unused personal allowances or pays tax at a lower rate than you do.
In order to justify a salary, the following points must be borne in mind:
As well as a salary, you may be able to pay premiums for a special pension arrangement for your spouse. These should not be taxable on your spouse and should save you tax as a business expense.
All the above considerations apply equally to an unmarried partner or indeed to any other individual.
If your spouse has no other employment, a Starter Checklist should be prepared with the Statement A ("This is my first job since last 6 April …") ticked. You may then pay up to the Lower Earnings Limit for employees' national insurance (£118 per week for 2019/20) without any further formality.
If you already have a PAYE scheme for other employees, or don't mind setting up a scheme for your spouse, you should consider the following points:
Please give us a call if there are any points you would like to discuss.

Small, oval, and packed with nutrients, chia seeds are nature's very own multi-vitamin tablets.
They're venerable members of the superfood family – the benefits that belie their unassuming appearance having been known for centuries.
Native to Mexico, chia seeds were revered by the Ancient civilisations that once inhabited that region. For Aztec warriors they were a favoured snack, lauded for their strength and stamina inducing properties. The Mayans too knew of the physical boost that these humble seeds provided to their eaters – the word 'chia' actually derives from the Maya word for strength. So valued were the seeds by these ancient cultures that they were, on occasion, even used as currency.
But in spite of the mass of claims and anecdotal evidence that attests to the benefits that these seeds provide to those who eat them, very few scientific tests have been conducted studying the effects of their consumption by people.
What modern science has confirmed however is that chia seeds do contain a multitude of health-boosting ingredients. Within these little seeds you'll find omega-3 fats, fibre, protein, antioxidants, vitamins A, B1, B2, B3, B9, C, E, and the minerals calcium, iron, magnesium, manganese, phosphorus, potassium, and zinc. And based upon what we already know about the positive influences that these individual ingredients can have on our well being, we can speculate about the ways in which these seeds can be good for us.

Health Benefits of Chia Seeds
So let's explore a few of the main health boosting benefits that are commonly attributed to chia seeds, and in doing so, make an attempt to uncover whether these superseeds really are the superseeds they're claimed to be.
One often repeated claim attributed to chia seeds is that they can act as an aid to weight loss. Due to their high fibre content and water absorption qualities, it's thought that chia seeds contribute to, and prolong satiety – the feeling of being full – and this forms the rational behind this claim. There's no solid evidence however to support these supposed weight shedding attributes, and eating chia seeds alone is unlikely to bring about have any discernible loss of weight.
Many also regard chia seeds as a substantial source of omega-3 fatty acids, and consequently, that they can serve as a good supplement for these acids for those who don't eat animals or fish. But these claims also fail to hold water. While chia seeds do contain omega-3s, the form they contain is the plant form, which differs from that found in fish and animals. The distinction is important, as unfortunately the plant form is much more difficult for our bodies to digest. The useful yield of omega-3s from chia seeds is therefore minimal.
But while chia seeds may fall short of delivering on two of their most often-claimed health benefits, their nutrient rich content is an indisputable boon for other aspects of our health.
Their rich fibre content is excellent for promoting the health of the digestive system. And as many of us fall far short of hitting the recommended target for daily fibre intake, chia seeds can provide an effective means of helping to increase the quantity of fibre that we consume.
Chia seeds also provide steady source of energy that's released over extended periods of time. This is because they are digested at a comparatively slow speed owing to their high content in fibre, protein and unsaturated fats. This in turn helps to regulate the stability of blood sugar levels – and this is one reason why some argue chia seeds can help to prevent the risk of contracting type-2 diabetes and allay the effects of the disease for those already suffering from it. This mixture of fibre, protein and unsaturated fats is also of great for maintaining a healthy heart.
The significant quantity of calcium that chia seeds contain means that they are also excellent for maintaining the health of our bones. Remarkably, gram-for-gram, chia seeds contain over 4x as much calcium than milk.
Chia seeds also contain an abundant range of vitamins and other minerals that can also help to contribute to our overall health in various other ways.
What's more, the introduction of chia seeds to the diet produces very little in the way of side effects. Although eating too many in one sitting may lead to constipation, chia seeds are known for being generally well tolerated. They're also not known to produce any adverse effects when consumed while taking prescription drugs.
Chia seeds can be eaten cooked or raw and many use them as a topping for cereals or bake them into breads and cakes. But as they have little in the way of taste, they're a versatile ingredient that can be added to pretty much anything. They can also be left to soak in water and then consumed simply in the resulting form, or then mixed with juices or smoothies.
So, although chia seeds may not deliver all of the many fantastic health-boosting benefits commonly attributed to them, they certainly do provide numerous health benefits, and are a versatile ingredient that's easy to work into almost all diets.
As such, we think it's fair to say that the humble chia seed is deserved of superfood status it has enjoyed for so long.

from "Libations for the One Hundred Years of Sistah Gwendolyn Brooks" published in Remembering Gwendolyn Brooks, Moonstone Press, 2017
Was the skyline and the sunset and the yard fence and the kitchenette and the skillet and the bean pot and the beauty shop ready to be tipped
and drunk by you?
Were the prim church gals and blues queens, dark boys unloved but keen to turn those circumstances, the God-collared and the kind, the muted and
the hunchbacks,
the perfumed, the black heroes of war, black wars dressed as servicemen, the yellow Jesses— were they braced for their redemption, surely? Surely? Did
they dream the arc of your
finesse, your balanced matter-of-fact? Bus-stop mahoganies, with glide inside their grind, elevated far from the women who paid them, unsung
anxious fathers subject to
adjectives: you crooned above their heads, your net their anthem. Dark girls measured for grace by loose length of curl, nosy neighbor ladies, neighbor men who rise from filthy
cots and pass on the pavement with lunch in a paper bag, the unstoried-unofficial, the bigly flat-foot eaters of ribs and lanky blue-funk gents—
who would wipe their mirror and prepare for your unveiling gaze?
From "Nine Seeds": An Introductory Essay on Sonia Sanchez, published in the anthology Peace Is A Haiku Song by Mural Arts Press (2012).
Scribing, as she will do inevitably, Sonia Sanchez gives peace a language of its own. To be a poet is to be a maker. To scan the world for words that keep us keen, keep us dreaming for peace, keep us opening the door to this necessary feeling, this concrete and sensory knowledge. To be Sonia is to make ways of speaking peace between us so that it will stay. The language labors against forgetting; the words describe so that we will always recognize its face and remember its texture.
From the novel Cotton Sky (unpublished):
Broad Street. Years before, Grandpa John took Katrina on day-long errands. Sun always washed these pictures. Distinctly, she remembered the itchy crinoline. Her dress fanned out on the old green bus seats. Her grandfather's huge black shoes. The blue-gray sweater that flapped against his bony back. She remembered the bus groaning and the air brakes shushing at every corner. Passing the long blocks of shops on the way home. Outside those small worlds of aroma and glass, white men in white aprons with white hair swept the streets. Leaning on their brooms, they waved and chatted with neighbors. Even as a small girl, Katrina knew that white people had different ways. She wondered if they would laugh and chat with her and Grandpa John.
A bakery flourished in that memory too. A bold chrome sign in block letters. Its window lined with white paper. Small monuments of chocolate, coconut and vanilla crème icing sat on silver pedestals. Pies, arranged on a pyramid of white boxes. Peach, apple crumb, lemon meringue.
Because those bus ride afternoons would always include a treat, Katrina and Vince fought for the chance to go. Every time she won, she hoped that they might stop, that she might slip carefully down, keeping a hand on the billowing skirt the way her mother said. That she might pull the silver bars of that thick glass door and climb the mountain of wondrous tastes. She would gather her words, sprinkle them into his ear so carefully—how could he say no? The two would rise suddenly, with just enough time to pull the cord and go free, letting the bus grind on without them.
Katrina had wanted so much to find herself on those sunny streets, where the concrete was as smooth as wet sand abandoned by the tide. But her grandfather huffed out something about never shopping there and that was that. He was sorry to say it though, and rushed her off the bus at Olney Avenue, onto a stool at White Tower. Hamburgers in oily paper bags and squeeze-on ketchup made Katrina spin her seat dizzy and forget.

The chipmaker, leveraging the strength of its Athlon processor, boosted its share of desktop PC sales worldwide last year, according to a new report from researcher Gartner. AMD, citing the report, said it increased its share of desktop PCs from 18 percent in 2000 to 22 percent in 2001.
AMD executives were quick to point out that the gains came during the worst PC market since 1985. PC unit shipments declined by approximately 5 percent in 2001, a year marked by a slowing economy and the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11. At the same time, rival chipmaker Intel went on the offensive, quickly reducing prices on its new Pentium 4 processor. The moves touched off a price war between the two companies.
"2001 marked a banner year for the AMD Athlon family...It is especially significant that we were able to increase market share within a challenging business climate," Ed Ellett, AMD's vice president of marketing, said in a statement Thursday.
AMD said it fared particularly well with consumer desktop PCs in Japan and Western Europe. The Sunnyvale, Calif.-based company did not break out its North American consumer PC sales figures, choosing instead to cite fourth-quarter gains in the U.S. market for corporate desktop PCs.
According to Gartner, AMD's share of small-business desktop sales increased from 20 percent to 37 percent in the fourth quarter, compared with the same quarter a year ago. In the same period, its share of desktop PC sales to mid-sized businesses rose from 11 percent to 28 percent, and its share of the government market jumped from 16 percent to 32 percent.
AMD chips were also present in 42 percent of desktop PCs shipped in the Japanese home PC market in 2001, according to the report. AMD accounted for 41 percent of home desktop PCs shipped in Western Europe and 28 percent of those shipped in Eastern Europe.
Overall, AMD's PC processor market share, including notebook and server chips, stood at 20.2 percent in 2001, according to Mercury Research, up from 16.7 percent in 2000. Intel finished 2001 with 78.7 percent of the global PC processor market, down from 82.2 percent in 2000, according to figures released by Mercury in January.

1 & 2 December 2005, School of Media, Film & Theatre, University of NSW, Australia The opportunity to attend the e-performance & Plug-ins – A Mediated Performance Conference and perform The End of Romance was enormously exciting for our artist collective, Unreasonable Adults. International symposiums designed to address multidisciplinary art, performance and technology/media are rare in Australia, indeed the world. Having participated independently in a number of such festivals and conferences in Europe, I felt the need for us, as one of the few collectives of live artists in Australia, to participate.
Unreasonable Adults performances have always worked to investigate issues around media/technology and performance and audience. Our work is our practice, and whilst we constantly discuss and theorize throughout our development stages, the theory, we hope, is in the practice. E-performance & Plug-ins – A Mediated Performance Conference proved to be an academics conference, with little, if any, performance focus. Speakers discussed issues of 'being live', questioning the necessity of the live body in performance. One of the more interesting examples was Meredith Morse's insightful presentation on the pioneering live art collective of late 1960's, Judson Memorial Church. There were international conference calls with Philip Auslander alerting us to a possible decline in the need for humans to make things and realise them. The irony, I felt, was the amount of conference time it took to wait for these link ups to 'connect', the fragility of their connections, the delays, and the way information is transferred when the physical is missing. We sat as a bunch of naughty school kids being able to pick our noses without the 'monitor' seeing… There was a similar sense of the ridiculous in the audience of Helen Sky's performance beamed in from London. The most interesting aspects for me from these situations of linking up and webcasting are; The audience: How are they implicated? Do they just watch? Why watch it in a theatre? What would happen if the audience walked out, screamed out, someone died? The mistakes: How are they incorporated? There was an overriding distance and coldness in the discussion of the live body and technology that removed the humanness (emotion, thought, feelings) from the work. I found this to be terrifying and frustrating. I equated it to a fear of the 'person' being present, and the body being placed and directed in a post modern concept of 'bones and sinews in space'.
In an attempt to directly reflect the environment, Unreasonable Adults presented a version of The End of Romance in the form of conference table/artist-talk set up complete with introductory power point presentation. We introduced our various computer tech specs, (in my case a description of a Dictaphone), which the conference audience found entertaining. We then gradually unraveled ourselves and our specs in a bright palette of text, movement, costumes, music and imagery. Even though our work has been built around mediated forms and remote communications our presence is still toying with theatre, dance and visual art, working closely with human emotions, body/social politics. In this sense our bodies (ourselves) play a central role. In discussion with artists at the conference I had the sense that there was an aversion to, or distain for incorporating the murky themes of the self with the cleanliness and finesse of technology.
This conference was an important and insightful event to attend. I gained a better awareness of many artists practicing in the field of live art, media based performance in Australia. It was a wonderful opportunity for Unreasonable Adults to present work to a broad national, and international audience. Whilst the manner in which the subject was explored and presented did not engage me in a positive sense, it was a constructive experience from which I have reflected well on and gained much.
