INTACT emerged as an outcome of a meeting organized in 2002 by the Population Council in Bellagio, Italy. The meeting aimed at reviewing the status of FGM/C research, identifying gaps and proposing program and research priorities. Participants in that meeting agreed to form the founding membership of a research network that would bring the evidence of good science to bear on important unanswered questions surrounding the practice and persistence of FGM/C. The group chose the name INTACT network, and formed smaller task forces to work on building the network's membership and activities, securing funding, and moving toward publication of important studies related to the field.
INTACT founding members come from different backgrounds and have different areas of expertise: research, gender, health care, public health, sociology and anthropology. They also represent different countries: Egypt, Ghana, Kenya, Lebanon, Nigeria, Sudan, Sweden and USA.

"We believe that it is very important that we have hopefully averted what would have been the most substantial headwind of all, which is a default for the first time in our history, and that that will contribute to a more positive environment that we hope will allow for greater growth and job creation."
"Giving governors more leeway in administering health care could represent a small, positive development in the ongoing saga of Obamacare. Unfortunately, instead of choosing flexibility, President Obama and his left-leaning advisers always default to rigid 'Washington knows best' answers."
"Over and over again, financial experts and wonkish talking heads endeavor to explain these mysterious, 'toxic' financial instruments to us lay folk. Over and over, they ignobly fail, because we all know that no one understands credit default obligations and derivatives, except perhaps Mr. Buffett and the computers who created them."
"By virtue of some of the ways the game is played, in terms of message discipline, in terms of access for reporters, and especially in the way that sources and subjects, especially famous subjects, treat the media, almost by default there's more news that's falling into books."
"I was a big fan of 'The Smurfs' growing up, even though by default - my mom used to force me to watch because she was a 'Smurfs' fan."
"The thing is, Obama is right that it would be a calamity for the government to default on its debt by not meeting its obligations. Such a thing has never happened and can't be allowed to happen."
"Giving governors more leeway in administering health care could represent a small, positive development in the ongoing saga of Obamacare. Unfortunately, instead of choosing flexibility, President Obama and his left-leaning advisers always default to rigid 'Washington knows best' answers."
"The people who did the collateralized mortgage obligations, sold them to pension funds, then sold them short, then bought credit default swap insurance on them, are just amazing. They are a law unto themselves."
"Sadness is a very interesting idea, this idea of sadness being some kind of default setting that artists will go into. And then I started thinking about this idea of sadness and happiness, and the idea that sadness is very loud, and happiness is quiet."
"I love being on stage. I'm completely, totally relaxed. It's the only time in my life when I know where I am and what's coming next. The other Robert Powell is probably fairly melancholic. Let's just say happiness isn't my default position. There are dark parts. I'm very good at it. I frighten people sometimes."

Drummer boy has returned to this house, look out for the bibs finale in the near future...." -All Gone.

I have a lot of pets. My wife volunteers at animal shelters and I work for one so we have adopted a few cats and dogs. 10 of them indoors to be exact. Now that's a lot of fur. Add to equation we live in a small house and vacuuming becomes a critical bit of maintenance. I vacuum every other day. I also had back surgery a couple of years back which made vacuuming a chore. I was using a competitors vacuum, designed for pets, that was good at the job, but it was a beast. After I slugged it around the living room my back would be aching. I needed a vacuum that excelled at the job of cleaning carpets and was light weight/ easy to push. So I began doing my research to see if there was anything better out there. A Dyson vacuum seemed to fit my criteria, albeit at a pretty stiff price for a guy working for a non-profit. You read good reviews and then you read some bad reviews. I took a chance and bought a DC40. I was a little afraid to shell out the extra money for the DC41 Animal Complete, just in case the Dyson legend was all hype. It isn't. I have had the DC40 for about four months and in every way it has exceeded my expectations. The way it cleans is nothing short of amazing. The carpet looks so good my in-laws thought we had shampooed for their visit. The DC40 just out-cleans any other vacuum I've ever used. It's easy to push and feels much lighter than the stated weight. Like I said earlier we live in a small house and the ball technology makes maneuvering around furniture and getting next to walls a snap. I actually look forward to vacuuming. The air quality has improved as well, although that's not something I can prove by any measure other than the "sneeze factor" seems to have gone down. I've never had my back bother me using my Dyson, even though I vacuum considerably more then before. Normally I vacuum because all of the dust flying around makes my wife's allergies act up. Everything stays locked up inside the DC40. It feels rock solid and looks awesome. The tools are easy to get at and the wand length is perfect so I don't have to bend to use the tools to get behind furniture, in corners, etc. The hose and cord are both a reasonable length. The designers at Dyson are brilliant! My only regret about going with Dyson is that I didn't purchase the DC41 Animal Complete for the extra tools for getting at the pet hair in my personal zoo. If you are thinking about purchasing the DC40 you won't be disappointed.

I owned a dyson vacuum for many many years. I loved it. I recommended dyson to many people. Now needing a new vacuum we bought this one. It's a cheap plastic piece of garbage, and I would never recommend a dyson vacuum again. It doesn't roll smoothly, makes all squeaky noises when it's used on hard wood floors. The canister is is so much smaller and doesn't open easily like my old one. I was very impressed with the old one, this one is a big failure! So sorry we got it, it won't last long like my first dyson.

Comments about Dyson DC40 Multi Floor Upright Vacuum Cleaner:
This machine is a true trooper!! I took excellent care of my machine and recently gave it to my daughter who loves it also!! Still going strong and still looks GREAT!!
Great Machine
By LindaSue
My son and daughter in-law gave me this machine for Christmas because I have a disease in my hands that cause painful lumps (marbles) and they thought this machine would be easier on my hands than the typical vacuum. They were so right, instead of fighting to push the vacuum this one just rolls and is so easy going around things. It goes from the carpet to my wood floors with easy and from the wood floors to the carpet with ease without having to pick it up. I LOVE this machine it actually makes vacuuming easy and fun, the hose part is a little tough to stretch but everything else is wonderful. I would recommend this to everyone, especially those with hand problems like arthritis or like what I have Dupuytren's Contracture Disease. LOVE THIS VACUUM!

By Jossie
Absolutely loving my Dyson vacuum, works great. Love how it vacuums very well on hardwood flooring and rugs. This is my favourite vacuum so far, have no complaints at all about this product, it's awesome.
Very good vacuum, not too heavy
By LoneVacuumer
I bought this two and a half years ago, and it is still working great. 2 floors in our house, 4 bedrooms, all carpet, all with this vacuum. The only minor flaw is the connect between the canister and the vacuum occasionally does separate slightly, so it loses a little suction. But it never has affected how it cleans. Use all the attachments all the time. love them. they work well, and the push button connections on them are very easy to use.
Outstanding Vacuum
By Indian02
Having owned many vacuum cleaners over the years, this one stands out as the best. Vacuum is strong no bags to buy and easy empty. I highly recommend this Vacuum cleaner.
Great Vacuum
By heather0529
Great suction and has always been reliable. We have two large dogs and this vacuum has always worked great even getting their hair. It took a little while to get use to the stiffness of the hose but with time that was easy. This vacuum is very light and it is hard to vacuum with other vacuums now. They all seem so heavy compared to a Dyson and how well they glide.
not quite as good as they used to be
By crzzyladyo
This is my second dyson machine. I LOVED my old animal. This is not the machine the old one was. After only a few months, the hose ripped. All in all a good machine, just not sure it was worth the money.
Excellent Machine
By John377
Purchased the DC40 a few days ago and my wife and I cannot stop using it. It's perfect for our 5 bedroom house with carpets and hardwood floors.
Great Smaller Dyson
By EJU57
Love it, purchased it for our summer place at the lake. Being a smaller model easy to store with the limited amount of space we have and still has all the power to clean perfectly.
puts the fun into vacuuming
By djj53
I have had this machine for 3 years and still love it!! It is super easy to use and does a fabulous job. I have recommended to my friends and 2 of them bought this dyson. They love it too. I used to hate vacuuming now I love it:)

Silver Lake's 'Hipster Beach' Idea Is No Joke
A conceptual rendering courtesy swimsilverlake.org
A pie-in-the-sky idea to turn part of the inaccessible yet visually stunning reservoirs atop Silver Lake into a public, beach-like swimming venue has the community abuzz.
The concept by local resident Catherine Geanuracos and her supporters would actually transform the northern, Ivanhoe Reservoir portion of the venue, which is smaller than the Silver Lake Reservoir portion, into a watering hole with swim lanes, a separate lake, and a sand-covered strip for sunbathing, at least according to an initial rendering (above).
The idea, dubbed "Hipster Beach" by the website Curbed LA, has excited some folks in Silver Lake ...
... who have for decades had to stare at fenced-off twin reservoirs and wonder, What if?
Though the project titled "Silver Lake Plunge" would take years to realize, now is actually a good time to start thinking about it:
The reservoirs are being taken offline as water supplies because federal regulations are phasing out "open reservoirs ... exposed to contamination from surface runoff, birds, insects, animals and humans," in the words of the L.A. Department of Water and Power.
The DWP says that, after underground water storage is constructed, the two reservoirs "will be maintained as non-potable water bodies for the continued benefit of the community."
View Larger Map
Many in the area, including the Silver Lake Reservoirs Conservancy, have been dreaming and brainstorming about what could be possible. The Conservancy states it "has no position on this particular idea."
Geanuracos' concept came from outside that framework, but she's hoping to eventually see support from the Conservancy and from the local neighborhood council.
"We want to start the discussions early," she told us. "The final decision-making is obviously with the City Council. It's DWP's party, too. They're beginning the process of redoing the reservoirs. Getting the council's and the mayor's support is incredibly important."
Geanuracos, who works as a digital strategist and CEO of New Economy Campaigns, says she sees Silver Lake Plunge as swim-centric:
Ivanhoe is a better size for what you would need to patrol with lifeguards. It could be unstructured open water with swim lanes. I would hope to see swim classes there. It's a beautiful lake and there's not enough places for kids to learn how to swim in L.A.
We have heard some grumbling about the proposal from neighbors in the top-of-the-hills community of million-dollar-plus properties. Who wants a bunch of down-the-hill, working-class people coming up for a swim?
Neighborhood Council member Amy Clarke says airing any such concerns would be overplaying them: "I haven't heard of rampant NIMBYism or fear" in the community, she told us:
There are a lot of north side people who do not fear the south-of-Sunset Boulevard crowd.
Clarke says she has queried about 30 of her constituents in the area about the Silver Lake Plunge and that most of the respondents have at least been open-minded.
"They have been into the idea of, Let's explore new life, a new vision for the reservoir, instead of having this gated-off, inaccessible place," she said.
That said, there have been neighbors who think potential traffic impact should be studied, she said. Others are worried that establishing a parking lot for the "beach" would draw too many folks to the neighborhood.
But Neighborhood Council member Charles Herman-Wurmfeld told us one of the ways NIMBYs get their way in the community is by refusing to even acknowledge ideas they don't like:
It hasn't been easy to get this kind of conversation going at the [Neighborhood Council] board level. How can it be that we have no position on this? We have a reservoir complex committee. Why haven't we been talking about this transformation for years?
Dorit Dowler-Guerrero of the Neighborhood Council seems to agree:
I definitely want the Silver Lake reservoir to be turned into a swim stadium. I'm down the hill. I am the unwashed masses. I am unbelievably in favor of this project.
But, she says:
There's gonna be a fight over it. There's a fight about everything. Frankly, I doubt it's going to happen. It's a bit of a dream. It might even be a farce.

Indeed, another Neighborhood Council rep said the plan "doesn't hold water."
Geanuracos is undeterred:
There's a pretty wide range of opinion as to what kind of public space we should have in Silver Lake. There will be some people who think this is a terrible idea. But part of the reason I'm starting this is I want to make sure we live in a city where our communities interact with each other and that we have access to public space.
In her wildest dreams, Geanuracos says, there will be swimming in the reservoir within five years.

How to stop Win 7 Driver Software Installation
I have a problem with windows "Driver Software Installation". I have an Audigy 2 ZS card installed. Every time I boot the machine the ""Driver Software Installation" starts and finalize with saying that the card is ready to use. This is not correct as there is no sound. Every time I reboot the same thing happens. Now, I have disabled Windows Update, I have disabled the devices etc. but nothing stops this ""Driver Software Installation" from starting at the next boot. I would like to install Daniel Kawakami's Audigy_SupportPack_2_18_0001_W7 but when I start, it says it can not install untill I have rebooted from a previous install which is the "Driver Software Installation" failed installation. And rebooting of course starts the "Diver Software Installation" again. Is there any way to disable the ""Driver Software Installation"? Thanks. |

Hi Bernhard, and Welcome to the Forum!
Open Control Panel - System - click Advanced System settings - hardware tab - Device Installation settings, and you'll find it there. Good luck with that driver bud! |

Hi and thanks for your answer. Unfortunately it did not turn off
the automatic install. If you look at the text in the Device Installations Settings it says turn off automatic install from Windows Update. Obviously it did not turn off automatic install if the driver is found in the Windows\System32\DriverStore\FileRepositoy. Now, deleting the audigy driver in that folder and uninstalling from the device manager and the restart. Automatic install starts as usual but fails now with a "driver not found" message. Restart again and the automatic installtation does not start att all. After this it was possible to install the Daniel K's audigy 2 ZS driver and all seems to be working fine now. |

Bit of a pain but I had the same problem with a Hauppage TV tuner - Windows kept wanting to install its own one.
Here's how to do it. 1) UNINSTALL the device driver via control panel===>device manager etc. 2) Choose delete software. Ignore any restart messages. 3) UNPLUG / DISCONNECT FROM THE INTERNET. 4) Install yourr driver Audigy. 5) STILL DISCONNECTED FROM THE INTERNET re-boot. 6) check your device is working 7) now re-connect to the Internet. You might have to do this a couple of times to flush out the microsoft driver. cheers jimbo |

Type 'device' in the search window (hit the windows logo key). A list will come. About the fourth one down is 'change device installation settings.'
I have never tried it but it appears to do what you want to do. Let us know if it works. |

High on a granite cliff in South Dakota's Black Hills tower the huge carved faces of four American presidents: George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Abraham Lincoln, and Theodore Roosevelt. Together they constitute one of the world's largest pieces of sculpture.
The story of Mount Rushmore's creation is as bizarre and wonderful as the monument itself. It is the tale of a hyperactive, temperamental artist whose talent and determination propelled the project, even as his ego and obsession threatened to tear it apart. It is the story of hucksterism and hyperbole, of a massive public works project in the midst of an economic depression. And it is the story of dozens of ordinary Americans who suddenly found themselves suspended high on a cliff face with drills and hammers as a Danish sculptor they considered insane directed them in the creation what some would call a monstrosity, and others a masterpiece.
The creation of Mount Rushmore is a story of struggle -- and to some, desecration. The Black Hills are sacred to the Lakota Sioux, the original occupants of the area when white settlers arrived. For some, the four presidents carved in the hill are not without negative symbolism. The Sioux have never had much luck dealing with white men.
In the Treaty of 1868, the U.S. government promised the Sioux territory that included the Black Hills in perpetuity. Perpetuity lasted only until gold was found in the mountains and prospectors migrated there in the 1870s. The federal government then forced the Sioux to relinquish the Black Hills portion of their reservation.
These events fit the pattern of the late 19th century, a time of nearly constant conflict between the American government and Plains Indians. At his second presidential inauguration in 1873, Ulysses S. Grant reflected the attitudes of many whites when he said he favored a humane course to bring Native Americans "under the benign influences of education and civilization. It is either this or war of extermination." Many of the land's original occupants did not choose to assimilate; for them war, was the only option.
In South Dakota, Sitting Bull and Crazy Horse led various Sioux tribes against the U.S. Army. They had a notable success against General George Armstrong Custer and his troops, but the army's defeat at the Battle of Little Bighorn in America's centennial year, 1876, would cause the federal government to redouble its efforts. (Some of the area in which Rushmore stands was eventually purchased by the state of South Dakota and developed as Custer State Park; the rest was part of the Black Hills National Forest.) South Dakota was also the site of the last major defeat of Native Americans at the Battle of Wounded Knee in 1890.
In his bestselling 1970 history of Native Americans' experiences in the West, Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee, Dee Brown explains that the "battle" was actually a massacre where hundreds of unarmed Sioux women, children, and men were shot and killed by U.S. troops. The history of Wounded Knee would spur American Indian Movement (A.I.M.) activists to occupy the site in 1973. They demanded the federal government honor the treaties made with various tribes. The FBI became involved in what became known as the Second Siege at Wounded Knee, and a tense standoff resulted in the death of two Native Americans and injury to others on both sides. Violence continued to erupt for several years, including a June 26, 1975 firefight on the Pine Ridge Reservation in South Dakota that ended with the death of two FBI agents and one Native American. In a case that continues to spur controversy, A.I.M. member Leonard Peltier was convicted of killing the FBI agents, and sentenced to two consecutive life sentences in prison.
In 1927, with a history of turmoil as a background, a white man living in Connecticut came into the Black Hills and dynamited and drilled the faces of four white men onto Mount Rushmore. At the outset of the project, Gutzon Borglum had persuaded South Dakota state historian Doane Robinson the presidents would give the work national significance, rejecting Robinson's initial suggestion that the sculpture honor the West's greatest heroes, both Native Americans and pioneers.
The insult of Rushmore to some Sioux is at least three-fold:
1. It was built on land the government took from them. 2. The Black Hills in particular are considered sacred ground. 3.The monument celebrates the European settlers who killed so many Native Americans and appropriated their land.
To counter the white faces of Rushmore, in 1939 Sioux Chief Henry Standing Bear invited sculptor Korczak Ziolkowski, who worked briefly at Rushmore, to carve a memorial to the Sioux nation in the Black Hills. Perhaps wary of Borglum's troubles with financial administrators, Ziolkowski personally bought a mountain top with a granite ridge and financed the entire project privately. The statue, envisioned as a freestanding sculpture of the great Sioux chief Crazy Horse, will be much larger than any of the Rushmore figures. Korczak Ziolkowski died in 1982, but his family continues to work on this awesome undertaking; Crazy Horse's face was completed and dedicated in 1998. Although the subject of this work addresses one aspect of Rushmore's offenses, the land is still considered Sioux property, and the mountain that the Ziolkowskis are carving is still sacred. The Crazy Horse monument is not without its own dissenters and critics.

Phuket Gazette - January 10, 2017 | 10:33 AM
BANGKOK: Siriraj Hospital aims to greatly boost the chances of survival for breast cancer patients within the next five years, one of its senior medical experts said yesterday.
Dr Prasit Watanapa, dean and director of Mahidol University's Siriraj Medical School, said the faculty aimed to defeat' breast cancer completely for first stage cancer patients with a 100-per-cent survival rate.
"For second-stage and third-stage patients, the survival rates should exceed 90 per cent and 80 per cent respectively," he added.
The dean spoke at a press conference held at the hospital.
He said that just like elsewhere in the world, breast cancer was most prevalent among women patients in Thailand, killing more than 10,000 people each year.
The doctor said Siriraj Hospital had successfully improved its techniques for treating the cancer to meet international standards.
Dr Pornchai Ochareonrat, chief of the hospital's Department of Head, Neck and Breast Surgery, also said yesterday that Siriraj had achieved an average survival rate of 92.1 per cent for patients treated over five years, and 85.6 per cent for those treated over 10 years.
According to Dr Pornchai, the United Kingdom achieved a survival rate of 89.6 per cent for five years of treatment and 79 per cent for 10 years.
"This shows that Siriraj Hospital's success rate is comparable to international standards," he added.
He added that the average survival rate for breast cancer patients in wealthy countries was 80 per cent, compared to 60 per cent for middle-income countries and 40 per cent for low-income countries.
The hospital conducted a study on 3,435 breast cancer patients treated at Siriraj Hospital between 2003 and 2011, with the average age of the patients being 51, and 24 for the youngest and 86 the oldest, Dr Pornchai concluded.

As you have described Mobile phone with Google maps in cycle mode works very well but lacks battery life.
I use a Garmin 800 with OSM loaded onto sd.
But with Anker battery pack attached to your mobile phone, this is the best option in my opinion and significantly cheaper, just a little heavier.

Many of us may remember the days of the department store portrait studio, those (often) awkward, stiff family photos posed against faux backdrops that adorned many a holiday greeting card. Kits-based Bopomo Pictures offers an antidote to that – kid and family studio photos that are fresh and engaging and let your true personality shine through.
Bopomo was started by entrepreneur Elayne Wandler in 2006, and in 2014 Saif Yousif, who was attracted to Elayne's original vision, took over the business. "I come from an independent photography background, which is known for good quality images but being pricey. The concept here bridges the gap between more mainstream studios and working with an independent photographer, so you get a quality experience at a reasonable price," explains Saif.
Vancouver families obviously think so, too, as Bopomo was named Vancouver's Best Baby Photography Studio in the Georgia Straight's Best of Vancouver awards in 2011, 2012, 2013 and 2014.
That could be why many families visit Bopomo annually. Some come in to take Christmas photos each year and wear the same outfits and pose the same way. Other families visit Bopomo after the birth of a child and have them pose with the same props so each child is commemorated in a similar shot. Clients who are expecting will come in pre- and post-baby for photos. And pets are welcome at Bopomo too, some starring in their own shoots, others as part of the family shots. Saif notes, "We've photographed everything from cats to ferrets!"

We have been going to Bopomo faithfully every year for the past 4 years. Every time we go we have the same wonderful service, the same wonderful session and the same wonderful results we have come to expect. From the start to the finish this great photo studio takes their job of capturing your family photos seriously. With a wide variety of props including antique sleds, pedal cars, "snow", leaves, stuffed animals and more the photographic artists go out of their way to create unique and individual shots. Each session they truly go above and beyond in creating copious amounts of images for you to choose your favourites to print. And that is always the hardest part! They do their job so well that we often take far too long to choose our favourites! But we never feel rushed to make a decision, we never feel that we are bothering the staff who to a person great to deal with, we just get to decide what images we are going to use to capture our memories. If you want something out of the ordinary and truly professional and distinct check out Bopomo. They even have a location in South Surrey now!

Maybe the Vikings know what they're doing by not going after a top wide receiver in free agency.
Brad Childress has always seemed to be a man who looks at history when making decisions, and Rick Spielman can count toothpicks with "Rain Man" precision. Between the two of them, they must have realized that taking a free-agent wide receiver or trading for a veteran is a dicey proposition.
While Vikings fans lamented the loss of Randy Moss in 2005, in 29 games with the Raiders, he has fewer catches (102), yards (1,558) and touchdowns (11) than he had in the 2003 season – his last healthy year as a Viking. But he is far from alone.
Ashley Lelie cost the Falcons a first-round pick last April and what did he deliver? Twenty-eight catches for 430 yards and one TD. Muhsin Muhammad signed two years ago with the Bears after coming off an enormous season with the Panthers. In those two years, he barely has more yards and receptions than he had in 2004 and has seven fewer touchdowns. Nate Burleson signed his alleged seven-year, $49 million contract with the Seahawks last year and, despite playing in every game, caught just 18 passes for 192 yards and two touchdowns.
Need more ammunition? Joe Jurevicius has burned both the Buccaneers and Browns by signing free agent contracts and then stinking up the joint. The only good year he's had since he left the Giants was in 2005 with the Seahawks – who picked him up after being released by Tampa Bay. Antonio Bryant signed a free-agent deal with the 49ers last year and responded with numbers of 40-733-3 – totals so bad that he was released prior to the start of free agency this year. Derrick Mason was a big free agent signee in 2005, but in his last five years with the Titans he never scored less than five touchdowns in a year. In two full seasons with the Ravens, he has a total of five touchdowns. The Jets thought they were getting a budding star in Justin McCareins when they signed him away from Tennessee in 2004, a year in which he caught seven touchdown passes. In the three years since, he has caught a total of seven touchdowns.
The same can be said for players like David Patten, Donte Stallworth, Peerless Price and Antwaan Randle El. Each signed for multi-millions. Each has been a disappointment with his new team. A look at 25 recent free agent signees shows that more than 80 percent of them have posted numbers even or less than they did with their previous team. While teams have found free-agent windfalls in quarterbacks like Drew Brees and running backs like Chester Taylor, wide receivers almost invariably don't live up to the hype – or the paycheck – when they move to a new system.
Is it the difficulty of moving to a new city and new offensive scheme? Is it a matter of getting timing down with a new quarterback? Perhaps. But the numbers don't lie. Maybe that is why the Vikings went after a lesser-known player like Bobby Wade. If he can produce like Mike Furrey did when he was given an opportunity, the Vikings will benefit, as opposed to paying huge money with little return like so many other NFL teams have done in recent years.
It's understandable that Vikings fans are upset that the team hasn't made a stronger push in free agency, but, when it comes to wide receivers, maybe doing little or nothing has turned out to be the better option.

The entrepreneur that I admire the most is Mr. William Henry 'Bill' Gates, the co-founder and chairman of Microsoft Corporation. Mr. Gates has been the richest man in the world for a substantial number of years and with a brand Microsoft ® that reaches out to almost every computer in the world. I admire him because of the following four abilities:
- Vision: A true visionary, Mr. Gates has a vision for the emerging demand of products. Microsoft was thus among the first 'purely software products' companies that were launched. He realized that with the advent of personal computing, a range of computer programs would be required to automate and streamline various tasks.
- A True Marketer: The metamorphosis of Microsoft from a start-up/small company to a corporation occurred due to the swift capture of a single opportunity by Mr. Gates: Microsoft licensed its MS-DOS computer operating system to IBM. Gates also set about protecting the royalties that he could acquire from computer software by aggressively fighting against all forms of software piracy, thus creating the retail software market that now exists today.
- Determination: A very determined individual, Mr. Gates has seen his corporation through a number of challenges (competition, risk, apt timing) on its road to market leadership.
- Philanthropy: The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation has an endowment in excess of $33.5 billion, with donations totaling more than $1.5 billion every year. Mr. Gates has thus created one of the largest charitable foundations in the world.

Expanded Access Use of Myozyme (Alglucosidase Alfa) in Patients With Late-onset Pompe Disease
This study has been completed.
Genzyme, a Sanofi Company

Genzyme, a Sanofi Company has indicated that access to an investigational treatment associated with this study is available outside the clinical trial.
Pompe disease (also known as glycogen storage disease Type II) is caused by a deficiency of a critical enzyme in the body called acid alpha-glucosidase (GAA). Normally, GAA is used by the body's cells to break down glycogen (a stored form of sugar) within specialized structures called lysosomes. In patients with Pompe disease, an excessive amount of glycogen accumulates and is stored in various tissues, especially heart and skeletal muscle, which prevents their normal function. The objective of this protocol is to provide enzyme replacement therapy with alglucosidase alfa on an expanded access basis, to severely affected patients with late-onset Pompe disease for whom there is no alternative treatment and who do not meet the clinical characteristics described in the inclusion criteria for participation in other Genzyme Corporation-sponsored studies currently enrolling patients with late-onset Pompe disease.

Inclusion Criteria:
- The patient or the patient's legal guardian(s) must provide written informed consent prior to any study-related procedures being performed.
- The patient has/had onset of symptoms compatible with Pompe disease after 12 months of age. Age at onset of symptoms must be documented in the patient's medical record(s).
- The patient has documented GAA deficiency consistent with a diagnosis of Pompe disease, or the patient has a confirmed diagnosis of Pompe disease by documented genotype. Tissues used for determination of GAA deficiency may include blood, muscle or skin fibroblasts.
- The patient must have the following conditions: a. The patient must be wheelchair bound (unable to ambulate with the use of assistive devices, such as walker, cane, or crutches) AND b. The patient requires the use of invasive ventilation (defined as the use of any form of ventilatory support applied through an endotracheal tube).
- Female patients of childbearing potential must have a documented negative pregnancy test prior to dosing each month. In addition, all female patients of childbearing potential must use a medically accepted method of contraception throughout the program. Male patients who are sexually active must use a barrier method of contraception.
Exclusion Criteria:
- Use of any investigational product within 30 days prior to program enrollment.
- Major congenital abnormality;
- Clinically significant organic disease (with the exception of symptoms relating to late-onset Pompe disease), including clinically significant cardiovascular, hepatic, pulmonary, neurologic, or renal disease, or other medical condition, serious intercurrent illness, or extenuating circumstance that, in the opinion of the Investigator, would preclude participation in the study or potentially decrease survival.
- The patient meets the clinical characteristics described in the inclusion criteria for participation in other Genzyme Corporation-sponsored treatment study currently enrolling patients with late-onset Pompe disease.

Thank you kindly Monte! I will still be in my usual hangouts at LJ's. I just like a specific forum for the scrollers. Just earlier today, I noticed some nice scrolled projects from some scrollers that I have not seen here before. They have probably been here a while, but with this many people I haven't seen them before. As for myself, I don't get time to cruise around here much. I tend to write my blog and my day takes over. It will just help me see scroller related questions and such and get to know the others a little better. I love LJ's and think it is a great place for all woodworkers.
