The Ethics, Environment and Society group is made up of professionals concerned with environmental and social issues and their ethical impact in our society.
A few years ago this group of professionals – seniors and juniors – did field research to measure the situation of poverty, extreme poverty, natural resources and social and environmental conflicts. The first studies have been around the situation of communities impacted by extractive companies, be they mining or gas. Hence the importance of these companies assuming strategic plans of corporate social responsibility.
The group is multidisciplinary because it includes sociologists, anthropologists, psychologists, economists, industrial engineers, philosophers and communicators who concur in the search for an interdisciplinary diagnosis to confront the conflicts that exist in the country.
The group has worked on diagnostics, monitoring, baselines and development proposals in Cajamarca communities as well as communities and towns in Moquegua. It also works in communities and towns on the Coast, Highlands and Amazon Forest of Peru following the course of the TgP gas pipeline -Camisea gas-. The group has done research on the role that renewable energies can play in rural communities of Cusco and Huancavelica in alliance with the Rural Sector Support Group. The ethical question has become a fundamental element in all of the group's research works.

Polis, Hinchey laud proposed EPA air-quality rules for gas drilling, push for more safeguards

U.S. Rep. Jared Polis, D-Colo., on Thursday praised the work of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) in proposing tough new air quality standards aimed at dramatically reducing smog- and cancer-causing pollution stemming from the ongoing shale gas boom opened up by the controversial hydraulic fracturing process.
"Small-town America shouldn't have Los Angeles-quality air, but in areas where gas drilling is booming that's exactly the case," Polis said. "Until we can close industry exemptions and loopholes within the law, this overdue update to our clean air laws is welcome and desperately needed."
Reacting to a lawsuit brought by two environmental groups that are very active in Colorado — WildEarth Guardians and the San Juan Citizens Alliance – the EPA was compelled to finalize a proposal for the new air-quality standards by Thursday, and the agency will now take public comment, including a hearing in Denver, before taking final action by Feb. 28 of 2012.
The proposed updated standards would compel the natural gas industry to use "cost-effective existing technologies to reduce emissions that contribute to smog pollution and can cause cancer while supporting the administration's priority of continuing to expand safe and responsible domestic oil and gas production," according to an EPA release.
"This administration has been clear that natural gas is a key component of our clean energy future, and the steps announced [Thursday] will help ensure responsible production of this domestic energy source," said Gina McCarthy, assistant administrator for EPA's Office of Air and Radiation.
"Reducing these emissions will help cut toxic pollution that can increase cancer risks and smog that can cause asthma attacks and premature death — all while giving these operators additional product to bring to market."
Polis and U.S. Rep. Maurice Hinchey, D-N.Y., have been very active in seeking greater environmental and public health protections against the potentially harmful effects of hydraulic fracturing, or "fracking" – a process in which large amounts of water, sand and undisclosed chemicals are injected under high pressure deep into natural gas wells to fracture tight geological formations and free up more natural gas.
Fracking has opened up vast new reserves of once unobtainable natural gas across the country – the EPA says 25,000 new and existing wells are fracked or re-fracked each year — but critics say the process is leading to more and more air and water pollution. Polis and Hinchey are both sponsors of the BREATHE Act, which would remove two natural gas drilling exemptions under the Clean Air Act.
The two lawmakers, responding to Thursday's EPA announcement, also joined 14 other House members in requesting that the federal agency also add hydrogen sulfide to the list of hazardous air pollutants within the Clean Air Act.
Dan Whitten, vice president of strategic communications for the industry trade group America's Natural Gas Alliance, issued the following statement Thursday:
"Natural gas producers are committed to safe and responsible development including the preservation of air quality in communities where we operate. We strongly believe that environmental protection and development of natural gas are not mutually exclusive. We will be studying EPA's proposed rules in the days and weeks ahead, and we will consider submitting comments as part of the notice and comment process."
In analyzing the proposed new standards, environmental groups that prompted the updates through litigation estimated the regulations would ultimately save the industry money while potentially saving lives.
In a press release from a coalition of conservation groups, analysts estimate the rules will result in a net savings of $30 million a year because of the increased capture and sales of methane – much of which either leaks, or is simply flared or vented during drilling and other production processes.
The groups say the new rules will reduce volatile organic compound (VOC) emissions by 540,000 tons (or 25 percent nationwide); methane emissions by 3.4 million tons (26 percent); and toxic air pollutants such as benzene and other known human carcinogens by 38,000 tons (a 30 percent reduction).
"These rules are a win-win solution; they are major milestone as we work to safeguard our communities from the impacts of unchecked oil and gas drilling," said Jeremy Nichols, climate and energy program director for WildEarth Guardians. "These proposed make clear: drilling for oil and gas should not come at the expense of clean air."

Notes on the music and organ:
Dieterich Buxtehude lived his entire life close to the shores of the Baltic Sea. He was most likely born in 1637 in the Danish town of Helsingborg, now part of Sweden. His father Johannes, also an organist, had moved to Helsingborg from Oldesloe in Holstein. Dieterich grew up in Helsingør, where his father was by then organist, and held posts as organist in Helsingborg S Mariae (c1657 – 60) and Helsingør S Mariae (1660 – 68). In 1668 he was appointed to the most prestigious position in North Germany, succeeding Franz Tunder as Organist and Werckmeister at St Marien in Lübeck. This great church, with a vault 38.5 metres high, was where he developed the famous Abendmusiken which had been started by his predecessor, and it was to this church that the young Bach came in the Advent of 1705. Much of the music of Buxtehude has been lost, including all of that for the Abendmusiken, and his rich corpus of organ music mainly survives through copies made by Bach and his circle of family, friends and pupils – there are no surviving autographs. It is perhaps because we actually know so little of Buxtehude's music that he is so often seen simply as a predecessor of Bach, rather than the individual genius he quite obviously was!
The organs Buxtehude is known to have played, and those of the three churches where he was organist, are all typical of the 17th century North German/Scandinavian type, with a wide variety of colour, and sometimes as many as four manuals and pedal. His own instruments in Lübeck were the large west end organ, and the smaller instrument in the so-called Totentanz chapel at the east end of the church. Both were 3 manual and pedal, the main organ being of 54 stops including two 32 foot registers on the pedal, and containing a large variety of reed stops. Indeed, the reed stops of the northern organs were something remarked on very appreciatively by Bach, in whose own home area of Thuringia organs had few reeds. In Lübeck the only organ from Buxtehude's time to survive the wartime bombing is the small organ by Stellwagen in the Jacobikirche, whilst in Helsingør S Mariae Kirke the organ of Buxtehude has been reconstructed in 1997. Here only the case and the original Lorentz front pipes from the RückWerk Principal had survived. The organ has been recreated as it was in Buxtehude's time as organist, from extensive researches by the consultant Cor Edskes into the work there of Lorentz and Frietzsch, although retaining a Brustwerk as in the previous organ in the old case by Frobenius. One of the characteristics of the Danish organs of this time is the narrow scaling of the Principals, particularly in the bass, which gives them a gentle singing character quite different from, say, those of a Schnitger. The choruses are bold and strongly characterised between the ManualWerk and RückWerk, but are not particularly loud, and the flutes and reeds create an almost endless palette of colour remarkable for such a relatively modest size of organ. It is possible that the brickwork of the church interior was plastered in Buxtehude's time, but otherwise it is largely unaltered.
With Buxtehude's music it is to earlier composers we should look for influence – from the Netherlands comes the influence of Sweelinck, via many pupils who included Heinrich Scheidemann (Reinken's predecessor at the Katharinenkirche in Hamburg) and Samuel Scheidt, whose Tabulatora Nova of 1624 exerted tremendous influence. Italian influence comes through Heinrich Schütz and Matthias Weckmann (both pupils of Giovanni Gabrieli), and Johann Jacob Froberger (a pupil of Frescobaldi) amongst others. French influence was also to be found, through Froberger's connection with Louis Couperin in Paris, through the Danish Court during Buxtehude's youth, and the Hamburg Opera during his maturity.
The Danish organ builder Johann Lorentz was working on the organ of Buxtehude's father's church of Sct Olai in Helsingør when he died in 1650. Lorentz's son, also Johann, was the famous organist of St Nicholas in Copenhagen, and whilst there is no proof, it seems very likely in view of the friendship between the families that the young Buxtehude was taught by him. It has also been suggested that Buxtehude might have studied with Scheidemann in Hamburg – this is where Lorentz sent his own son Jacob – and the music of Buxtehude certainly owes much to the style of Scheidemann.
This programme opens with a splendid example of the Stylus Phantasticus from Scheidemann, with a powerfully chromatic central section. This is followed by two chorale settings by Lorentz the first of which is played using the RückWerk Principal whose façade pipes are known to be by Lorentz senior. In the following two verse setting of Vater unser his indebtedness to Sweelinck is very apparent in both the textures and the florid solo line in the second verse.
A number of the forms in which Buxtehude wrote for organ are represented. The Magnificat is in a distinct sectional form which exploits different registrations and divisions of the organ and is similar in many ways to the style of the Toccatas or Praeludia. The A minor Praeludium has a rhapsodic free opening section, two fugal episodes and a daring final section with audacious harmonies. The other free work, the little Fugue in C, is a manualiter work in the style of a gigue which ends with a curious upward scale in the bass under a repeated chord pattern, a feature which fits the short octave bass of the 17th century keyboard perfectly.
Together with these comes a selection of chorale preludes – part of the everyday working material of a Lutheran organist. In the two verse setting of Ach Gott the pedal plays the melody in the first verse on a 4 foot stop which sounds out in the alto of the texture with the bass in the left hand, rather like one often finds in Scheidt; the second verse has a rhapsodic treble line somewhat reminiscent of the Lorentz Vater unser. The ending of Gelobet seist du might be the inspiration for the end of the first section of the Bruhns Nun komm, while the coloratura solo line in Nun bitten wir BuxWV 208 is a supremely beautiful example of this type of prelude. The Baptismal prelude on Christ unser Herr concludes with a fine example of word painting, where at the words 'es galt ein neues Leben' (He gives a new life) the music suddenly changes texture and feels as though it has become exalted and serene. This chorale is registered as a reed consort, whilst in the Christmas prelude on In dulci jubilo the bells of the Cymbelstern are heard. A distinctive idea used quite a lot by Buxtehude and very characteristic of the 17th century is heard in the prelude on Ich ruf zu dir, where the solo line migrates through the musical texture, sometimes in the bass and sometimes in the treble, rather like a dialogue. In the final prelude of Buxtehude, Herr Christ, we return to the same chorale as the first Lorentz, here again using the Lorentz Principal, but down an octave as an 8 foot solo stop on its own.
Between the two groups of Buxtehude's music comes a set of chorale variations on Von Gott will ich nicht lassen by his pupil Georg Leyding. Buxtehude's own setting of this chorale is a powerful statement of confidence, with a striking chromatic second section. The six verses of Leyding's setting provide a variety of musical styles, from rather old-fashioned bicinia in verses two and three to a more modern trio texture in verse four. Verse five is an example of the strong influence of the virtuoso violin school of North Germany, whilst the final verse uses double pedals in a splendidly exuberant display of colour and technical confidence. Leyding was a pupil of Jacob Boelsche, an organist in Brunswick, and traveled to Lübeck in 1684 to study with Buxtehude. He was not there for long, however, and later the same year returned to Brunswick when Boelsche's died, subsequently being appointed to his teacher's church posts.
Bruhns was born near Husum, and returned there as organist of the Stadtkirche after his time in Lübeck. With him we come to one of Buxtehude's most talented pupils, although sadly very little of his music has survived. What we do have is of consistently high quality, and the Fantasia on Nun komm is a splendid example of this style from the late 17th century. These long chorale fantasias were often improvised to show off the artistry and virtuosity of the player, and the five sections of this work display many facets of this art. The penultimate section in particular is very beautiful, with chromaticism which is almost painful in its intensity. This section can be played by a violinist double stopping accompanied by continuo, and with Bruhns there is the added twist that he was also a virtuoso violinist – we know that he came to Lübeck to study with his violinist uncle Peter Bruhns as well as with Buxtehude. From Mattheson comes the story of how he would go to the organ loft and play his violin, double stopping so that it sounded like several players, and accompanying himself with his feet on the organ pedals! The G major Praeludium is one of the greatest works of the Stylus Phantasticus, with extended free sections surrounding two fugal episodes, the first of which in six parts with double pedal is a virtuoso tour de force, whilst the second is in five parts.
What stands out about this music is not only the sheer variety, the improvisatory freedom, and the way the works use the size and colour of the Northern European organs so wonderfully, but above all the quality of invention so consistently shown.

Disposition of the organ of Sct Mariae
Organist and harpsichordist, Douglas Hollick was the first Organ Scholar at Hull University, studying with Peter Hurford. He subsequently studied with Marie-Claire Alain in Paris, and Gustav Leonhardt in Amsterdam. He teaches in Cambridge, at Hull University and at the Birmingham Conservatoire, and has given masterclasses frequently in the UK and elsewhere in Europe.
With an international reputation, and with many accolades from critics and scholars alike, Douglas Hollick was awarded a year 2000 Churchill Fellowship to visit North Germany and Denmark during August/September 2000 to research the organs and other keyboard instruments from the period of Buxtehude and the young J S Bach. The Fellowship gave new impetus to his ongoing research into questions of performance practices in the 17th and 18th centuries, and this recording is a direct result of contacts made during the trip.

Maryland Sanctuary Bill Gets "Networked!"
Posted: April 15, 2017 at 3:42 pm / by Ryan Gniadek / comments (0)
By Sharon L. Cohen
Do you remember the 1976 movie hit, Network? This movie really tapped into the public's post-Watergate anger at the political establishment. In fact, the infamous rant by the film's failing TV commentator Howard Beale when he tells viewers to go to their windows, open them up, stick their heads out and yell "I'm made as hell and I'm not going to take this anymore!" is still used to symbolize situations where disgruntled voters have had enough!
So when Democrats launched their plans to make Maryland a sanctuary state, discontented voters – even those who usually "go along to get along" – decided that enough was enough, especially following the tragic news of an alleged rape of a 14 year old freshman at Rockville High School by two illegal alien young men, enrolled as freshman students.
Many of you came out and testified before the Maryland General Assembly, participated in rallies, wrote letters and made calls, spoke to reporters, and organized friends and family to voice widespread opposition to the very concept of sanctuary for illegal aliens.
The result was that our sustained and collective "yelling" got the bill withdrawn. The bill got "Networked" by you, the voters.
Winning this fight to stop the state sanctuary bill is a lesson in participatory democracy. It shows what's possible when the voters rise up and demand a course correction. But let's not kid ourselves – this work is not easy. It takes time, effort and tenacity. And winning one battle does certainly not mean that we can sit on our laurels.
Real change in local government – in the Maryland General Assembly, Montgomery County Executive and County Council – will require elected officials who are in many ways the polar opposite of those who now serve in county government. There is a desperate need for elected officials who represent you, the voter, rather than special interests or extreme policies that further their own political agendas.
To that end, the upcoming 2018 election presents the perfect moment for change. We need some top-notch candidates to RUN and WIN next year. And, following passage of the term limits measure in 2016 – another significant victory – we have more open Montgomery County Council seats than at any time in recent history.
We need to elect at least one Republican County Council member in order to block the majority from punitive measures like raising taxes to pay for ill-advised policies, such as the cost of sanctuary policies here in our county.
We need to elect a few Republican delegates to the Maryland General Assembly, House and Senate in order to build a fire wall against bad bills like the state sanctuary bill, and sustain our governor's vetoes of bad bills.
We also need volunteers to help with a host of efforts to get GOP candidates elected and build an even stronger grassroots effort this year in order to be ready when the Maryland General Assembly returns to work in January, 2018.
Beating back the state sanctuary bill is sweet, indeed. So, thank you for your successful efforts to "Network" the bill, and by all means enjoy the victory. Now let's roll up our sleeves and lay the foundation to build our network of grassroots activists and stellar candidates, who can WIN in 2018.
Remember, timing is everything! In order to change the face of our elected officials in Rockville and Annapolis, we need to start NOW to build momentum and establish a roster of inspired candidates who can WIN elections in 2018 and provide true leadership for Maryland.
If you would like to volunteer to help the party and our candidates OR if you are interested in running for state/local office as a Republican, let us know by responding at this link and you will be contacted by a party official to discuss your interests further. THANK YOU!

What is the full form of bsf ?
Bsf : Border security force
Border security force is India's Primary border guarding organisation. It is one among the six Central Armed Police Forces of India, and was raised within the wake of the 1965 War on 1 December 1965, "for ensuring the security of the borders of India and for matters connected there with".
It is a paramilitary charged with guarding India's land border with Pakistan and Bangladesh during peacetime and preventing transnational crime at an equivalent , it's various active roles during an outbreak of war. It is comes under Ministry of Home Affairs. The BSF has its own cadre of officers but its head, designated as a Director-General (DG), since its raising has been a politician from the Indian Police Service.
BSF is additionally employed for Internal Security Duties and other law and order duties on the requisition of the government . Being a Central Armed police it are often entrusted with policing duties at anywhere aside from its mandate.
Operations :
The BSF was given the task in counter-insurgency and counter-terrorism operations in Jammu And Kashmir, Punjab, and therefore the Northeastern Seven Sister States. While in Punjab, BSF took Part in operations like Amsonia tabernaemontana , Black Thunder 1 & 2 till 1989 and when the insurgency in Jammu and Kashmir broke call at 1989, the BSF handover the Counter Insurgency Operations to CRPF and Punjab Police and moved towards state of Jammu & Kashmir. In Jammu and Kashmir, state police and therefore the thinly-deployed Central Reserve police (CRPF) struggled to cope up with the spiraling violence, and therefore the Indian government deployed the BSF in Jammu and Kashmir to combat terrorists.
In Jammu and Kashmir, BSF initially suffered casualties from insurgent attacks but later saw successes. During the initial years, terrorists activity had even reached parts of jammu and Himachal Pradesh, however it had been only due operation by BSF that by late 90s, area of activity had restricted to only the valley. BSF was also successful in setting up a robust HUMINT network. BSF is also credited for killing Ghazi Baba chief of Jaish-e-Mohammed and the mastermind of the 2001 Indian Parliament attack—in August 2003 along with his deputy commander. The BSF raided Baba's hideout in Srinagar and he was killed within the ensuing gun battle along side his deputy chief.
However, with changing tactical and operationnal conditions, and expansion & modernization of State police. Despite the BSF was withdrawn from counter-terrorism operations in Jammu and Kashmir in 2006. Government then withdrew all the 16 BSF battalions and diverted back to protect the Indo-Pak border and Bangladesh–India border|Indo-Bangladesh border]]. Some units of BSF are also deployed Central India to Combat Naxal violence Counter-Maoist operations are diversified between ITBP and BSF. BSF is deployed in Kanker district of Chhattisgarh, where Naxal strength is relatively thinner than that of other parts of Bastar region. At present total 15 battalions of BSF are stationed in several parts of Kanker district to combat the Naxal menace.

Atlantis Evolution is a 2004 graphic adventure game developed by French studio Atlantis Interactive Entertainment and published by The Adventure Company. It is the fourth in the Atlantis series by Cryo, and the first one made by Atlantis Interactive Entertainment, founded by former Cryo developers. Unlike the second and the third game in the series, the game revolves entirely around Atlantis. It was followed by The Secrets of Atlantis: The Sacred Legacy in 2006.

Story
Near the beginning of the 20th century a 25-year-old journalist named Curtis Hewitt returns home from Patagonia. On his journey, he encounters a storm, which brings him to the world of Atlantis. Here he meets the native people and embarks on a quest to free them from their tyrannical gods.

Development
Atlantis Evolution was first revealed by DreamCatcher Interactive in April 2003, as part of several announcements by the company in preparation for the 2003 Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3). The game was initially developed by DreamCatcher Europe, a company formed when DreamCatcher absorbed parts of Cryo Interactive, its defunct parent. However in the summer, DreamCatcher Europe shuttered the game development divisions it had carried over from Cryo. Around September, the new company Atlantis Interactive Entertainment was founded by ex-Cryo employees; it ultimately became the game's developer.

Who: depatriarchise design is a platform co-run by Anja Neidhardt and Maya Ober that examines the complicity of design in the reproduction of oppressive systems, focusing predominantly on patriarchy, using intersectional feminist analysis.
When: Anja Neidhardt is a Berlin-based design researcher, writer, curator and educator. In addition to being a member of the editorial team of the German magazine ROM, she writes for various international design publications and teaches design history and theory at the Academy of Visual Arts in Frankfurt/Main. In 2016 she graduated with an MA in design curating and writing from Design Academy Eindhoven. From 2012 until 2014 she was a member of the editorial team of the design magazine form.
Maya Ober is a Basel-based designer, researcher, educator and writer working across different disciplines and holds a B.Des. from the Industrial Design Department of the Holon Institute of Technology. Maya works as a research associate at the Institute of Industrial Design and lecturer at the Institute of Aesthetic Practice at the FHNW Academy of Art and Design, Basel and as an external academic tutor at the Master Degree Programme in Visual Communication at Konstfack in Stockholm. At the FHNW, Basel, together with Laura Pregger, she co-initiated the teaching programme Imagining Otherwise that aims at expanding the discourse about intersectionality within design, both practice and theory, focussing on voices, practices and learning modes that have not been present enough or at all within the curricula, trying to explore the ways in which we could depatriachise, decolonise and deprecarise the design education.
Where: depatriarchise design works across different mediation formats: workshops, labs, talks, publications and a weblog. The platform has moderated public events at Frauen_bibliothek, Basel, the University of Applied Sciences Potsdam, Germany, Plan D, Zagreb, Croatia, Badischer Kunstverein, Karlsruhe, Germany and HKB / MA Design, Bern.
What: The platform was initiated in 2017 as an online blog, trying to expand the discourse about what we call design patriarchy, the active involvement of design in the reinforcement of patriarchal structures. The impulse to create this platform was the Milan Design Week and the systematic marginalisation and exclusion of female practitioners from the design field and a very white-male-euro-centric normative understanding of what design is, and who is a designer. Since then, depatriarchise design has expanded to a non-profit research-led platform working across different mediation formats.
In 2018, the "depatriarchise design" got invited as part of Building Platforms in in the frame of the Swiss Design Network conference "Beyond Change: Questioning design in times of global transformation" in the foyer of FHNW in Basel. During the event, depatriarchise design moderated three workshops: "deconstructing design education" and "deconstructing design innovation". A third workshop was run together with two further reflection platforms, Decolonising Design and Precarity Pilot.
Why: depatriarchise design questions the shape and the very definition of design as a discipline, as well as its priorities, politics and agendas.

'Bubble Baby' Study Calls for Neonatal Screening
News Nov 15, 2018 | Original story from the Université de Montréal

There is an urgent need to develop better treatment strategies for patients suffering from severe combined immune deficiency (SCID), according to an international study published in the journal Blood.
The study was led by Dr. Elie Haddad, a pediatric immunologist and researcher at CHU Sainte-Justine and professor at Université de Montréal.
This deficiency, better known as "bubble baby disease" is a rare syndrome characterized by a total non-function of the body's immune system. The children affected have no immune defence and are vulnerable to bacteria, viruses and fungi, resulting in repeated severe infections. Without appropriate treatment, in most cases this disease is fatal within the first months after birth.
SCID can be caused by mutations in various genes involved in the functioning of the immune system. The new research shows that the nature of the mutated gene (or genotype) has a significant influence on patients' survival and reconstitution of their immune system after bone marrow transplant. According to the study, the genotype must be taken into account when adapting treatment strategies to individual patients.
44 Medical Centres Involved
Funded by the U.S. National Institutes of Health, the Primary Immune Deficiency Treatment Consortium (PIDTC) involves 44 medical centres across North America. The PIDTC conducted a retrospective analysis of 662 patients with SCID who received hematopoietic stem cell transplants as their first therapy between 1982 and 2012 in 33 of these centres, forming the basis of the new study.
"Immune diseases are among the top priorities at CHU Sainte-Justine in terms of care, teaching and research," Haddad said. "There are only one or two cases of SCID per year in Quebec. Having access to such a cohort of patients with this rare disease and over such a long period has provided us with significant and unique data to advance our knowledge in this area."
The results showed that survival rates of patients were higher after a cell transplant from a matched sibling donor. In recipients from other donor types, which represent 86 per cent of cases, the data showed that the SCID genotype had a strong influence on survival and immune reconstitution. In addition, the researchers found that young age and absence of active infection at the time of transplant were also key factors for survival, and both were significantly associated with improved survival following a transplant.
Critical Need for Neonatal Screening
"We need to develop patient-specific treatment strategies," Haddad said. "There is a critical need for neonatal screening to establish appropriate isolation, implement infection-prevention measures, particularly before transplantation, and ensure rapid referral for bone-marrow transplant or gene therapy after diagnosis."
The study also points to the need for close monitoring of immune-system reconstitution after treatment to identify patients with conditions that may require additional intervention and prevent a poor long-term prognosis. Further studies will be needed to identify patient- and transplant-related factors that limit early immune-system reconstitution, and to determine the most appropriate and effective interventions.
"In our future research, our objective will be to analyze the late effects of conditioning and the quality of long-term immune-system reconstitution after hematopoietic cell transplant for this deficiency," said Haddad.

MetalTalk's Andy Rawll talks to Deen Castronovo about his recovery from addiction and his return to music with Revolution Saints and live performance with The Dead Daisies.
He reflects on his musical journey, life lessons learned and future aspirations, including relevations on a possible next musical reunion with long-time collaborator and friend Neal Schon.
Released earlier this month, The Dead Daisies fourth studio album, 'Burn It Down', is a muscular tour-de-force, a tornado of pounding drums, pulverizing bass, screaming guitars and in-your-face raw vocals.
Evoking the best of 70s rock, with moments of Birmingham's finest, blended with the early works of Boston's best, 'Burn It Down' will do just that: Burn down everything in its path until there is nothing left standing.
Recorded in Nashville with Marti Frederiksen at the helm, the band finished 'Burn It Down' in December, with Anthony Focx once again handling the mix and mastering legend Howie Weinberg adding his magic.
You can see MetalTalk's ten out of ten pints review right here.
You can order 'Burn It Down' right here.
The 'Burn It Down' world tour kicked off in Glasgow on April 8th, with all UK dates sold-out and the European leg of the tour going strong. The band will be touring for all of 2018, with a return visit to Japan, the US and Canada, Mexico, South America and many more shows in the UK and Europe already in the pipeline.
You can win tickets for the show in Cologne on 5th May right here.


Moving from a 4S to a 6Plus. I make fewer than 10 calls per month but use the other features all the time. I've found that I prefer reading on my iPad Mini, iPod Touch 5, and iPhone 4S more than on the larger iPad. Narrower field of view. The iPhone 6Plus is the perfect size. I have no expectations of one handed use. It's a pocket computer that happens to make phone calls. The 128 GB seals the deal too. Now I can put my 8500 song library on the device at 256 bit sampling rate with lots of books and apps and still have 30-40 GB free. With 64 GB I have to down sample to at least 192 bit and be careful not to install too many apps, books, pictures, or songs and I'm still only seeing < 5 GB free.
Everyone's advising against running iOS 8 on the 4S. After using the iOS beta I thought that was good advice. Doing a clean install with the release version of iOS 8 makes it tolerable. Not great but not too bad.
I fully expect Apple will continue to support and build new smaller devices. Maybe not 4" but 4.3" range. I've always admired the feel of the iPod Touch 5 and wished Apple could make an iPhone that felt as good as the Touch does in your hand. The regular iPhone 6 comes close but there's still room for something smaller. At some point I think we'll see a 3-size family produced in lock-step. Just a matter of time and Apple coming up with some new product categories to take some of the enormity off of each iPhone release. Apple can't stray to far from the formula with so much riding on the iPhone. Keeping the previous generation around is a hedge and buffer against making too radical of a change in the newest versions.
My daughter's iPhone 6 with leather case is, for all practical purposes, the equivalent size of the iP5C and case it replaced -- but with much better everything!
My iPhone 6+ left Inchon about an hour ago -- delivery on the 25th. Interesting, that the printout template of the iPhone 6+ is almost the same footprint of my granddaughter's Cannon 60D DLSR (about 40 times thicker).
From the pictures and videos already posted to the web, I suspect that the 6+ will cause picture/video aficionados , like yourself, not to shoulder the burden of their DSLR camera kit -- except when specifically needed.
These days, I justify most of my Apple purchases with my AAPL dividends ... I think they are mutually supportive and mutually beneficial ..
Where is the survey about all the Android switchers?
For iphone users and wants upgrade for larger screen will certainly go for iphone 6 / Plus. No brainer. For Android users, with no money issue will go for iphone 6 / Plus. No brainer their either. The problem is those android users like me who wants iphone 6 / Plus but are not mentally ready to spend extra money will drift towards iphone 6 but slowly. Buy their iphone 6 cheaper on ebay, craiglist, etc. But, migration from Android to iphone 6 / Plus is inevitable. I tell you, Apple is killing me with iphone 6.
Well, that now leaves Samsung with nothing but U2 as fodder for an Apple-mocking commercial.
You don't need survey. Android to iphone 6 / Plus is inevitable and happening as we speak and will continue for a long time.
I am a android user for a long time but now looking forward buying iphone 6 soon as gather some courage and money. For day-to-day use, iphone 6 is great. Your choice is right.
I've had my 6 (not Plus) for three days now, and I'm finding the size extremely awkward. When I pick up my 4S, it now feels futuristic to me in a way I didn't think would be possible after three years. My hands are probably slightly larger than average, but one-handed operation seems borderline impossible with the new phone, whereas I never used two hands with my old phone, so I'm probably going to have to do everything differently.
I bet that if you had used the 5 for a while, the 6 wouldn't seem so bad to you.
ApplePay, alone, could be the driving force for many to purchase an iPhone 6 and disqualify anything else.
HealthKit will drive many more sales -- and availability of the AppleWatch, in early 2015, should create an upsurge in iPhone 6 sales -- in the normally flat March quarter.
HomeKit, too, should drive iPhone sales.
The new openness of Apple SDKs brings iOS 8 up to par (or better) with competing platforms.
Swift and Xcode gives Apple Developers a superior development capability.
I expect new iPads and AppleTV to exploit the 64-bit capabilities of the A8[X] -- more storage, RAM, lager screen, direct [fast] Mac connection as a graphics tablet/additional screen, 4K video, better imagery (medical).
I expect a new AppleTV with Console quality games.
All in all -- I'd much rather be us than them.
I went to the Apple Store on Saturday. The iPhone 6Plus fits in my shirt pocket. I will be getting the 6Plus. My iPhone spends almost all it's time on a desktop or other flat surface and only goes in my pocket when going somewhere. So, the 6Plus will work out fine. Like numerous other posters, I take a lot of pictures and the image stabilization is important.
Soon the only Android users will be the ones who got it free at 7-Eleven with their Slurpee, who can't perceive a difference between one flashy screened device and another.
Uh yeah. Please do NOT touch my wiz.
Retro, I'd suggest switching from the 'grid of icons' mindset popular with smaller phones. Use widgets for the top half to 3/4 of the screen, and your 'goto' apps for the bottom row or two of the main screen. Leave the grid of icons in the app list screen, or put it one screen over. Eventually you could get used to just turning your phone on and having most of the info you want in your widgets.
That works for me, but may not work for you. If so, I believe they have a feature where one handed, if you double tap the home button (not press in), it slides all of your icons to the bottom of the screen. Does iOS allow you to place your icons or does it automatically move them to the top?
The stock price drops on record sales that surpassed the iPnone 5S, that resulted in a 5% stock increase. This year not only were the phones short in supply for demand, but they haven't even started up sales in China. Of course the market will sell off, because there is no sense to gambling. "Daddy needs a new pair of shoes!" The most successful company in the world, with the best, richest and most loyal customers, hits the ball out of the park and Wall Street boos. What a bunch of hooey.

Last saturday Westler and Hermansson took a day trip to the south of Sweden. We have been there a couple of times since their season opening in January but so far we never had any good fishing. Strong winds, rain or fog use to do their best to ruin our fishing. But not this time.
The sea was calm and the sun was slowly warming up the cold and crystal clear water. Westler rigged his newly built 8 foot, 4 weight and Hermansson went with the more appropriate 6 weight. We fished an area with sand bottom and a lot of rocks and kelp but the calm and clear water made it impossible not to spook the fish, if there were any.
The next spot was near the harbour in Mölle. A thick sea mist surprised us but only lasted for an hour. Just before the fog lifts Hermansson shouts -"There it is!" The rod was bending deep as the sun started to shine through. The 45 cm silver sea run put up a really good fight before it was released.
As the wind increased Westler switched to the more suitable 6 weight. And maybe that was a good thing. Moments later he saw a big shadow following his small pink hackled fly. He stops retrieving for a few seconds and then, BAM! A giant silver trout took the fly, made some powerful rolls and then made a full speed 30 meter run before Westler could slow it down. The screaming Hardy Marquis echoed between the hills in the background. This fish was so strong that we could only steer it a bit and after a good 20 minutes we could land it in the net. Well, at least half the fish as the net was way too small.
The fish measured 77 cm and just under 4 kilos. A new personal best for Westler that is not easy to break. After that we had a good time in the sun with some smaller fish on the hook and a nice lunch at Hotel Kullaberg. We both smiled in the car all the way back to Gothenburg. Not all fishing trips are like this one.
In first of april the season opens for our home waters in the west coast of Sweden. We are in the middle of preparation for a opening weekend in the archipelago just north of Gothenburg. Hopefully we can write something similar about that trip as well.
Well, the season finally came to an end. As all good things have to. But this time it was different. You know the feeling when you have reached a goal, performed well, accomplished a goal. That feeling.
This season we met a lot of new friends, we went to a lot of nice places, learned tons of new tactics and techniques. And we caught hundreds of trouts. Really.
So when we sat there in the car, heading home after this season's last sea trout fishing day, we were smiling. Satisfied. It probably won't last long, but that's the way it felt.
Next up is a weekend trip to Öland, south east of Sweden. The trout around Öland is bigger than on the west coast so we are all in for a new personal best. We will try to post some updates from there. Stay tuned.
Orrbeck just got home from skiing in the northern part of Sweden and was eager to cast the line again. Really eager. That's why we practically were alone on the early ferry to the outer archipelago. The sun hadn't reached the eastern horizon as we assembled our gear and started walking towards one of our favourite spots.
The calm and clear water made it hard not to spook the fish. With gentle steps we waded out in the narrow channel. It didn't take long before the rising trouts started to show. And then it begun. One hour of constant wakes. We've never seen so much fish in this water before. As Westler started to catch his first two, Orrbeck was still struggling with the choice of fly. When Westler catched his fifth Orrbeck finally hooked a nice trout. A real high jumper. The third jump finally released it from the hook and even though Orrbeck didn't catch any trouts this morning it sure was worth the early trip. Westler ended up with nine fine trouts with a top result of 55 cm.
A couple of hours later it was all over. The tide made it's way out in the ocean again, and so did the trouts.
Finally. The wait is over. A new season of chasing silver has begun. It has been six tough months of fly tying, put-n'-take fishing, planning and anxiety.
The first of April is no day for jokes. At least not for sea trout fishermen along the west coast of Sweden. For us it is a holy day. It creates the same anticipation as Christmas eve. This year was no different.
The spring came a little early so the water was around 5° Celcius and the sea trout were already feasting on worms, shrimp and small fish. We had a feeling this would be a great season opening.
The fly box was packed with marabou shrimp and zonker streamers. Westler met up with some old fishing friends at an old gas station just north of Gothenburg. Somehow Orrbeck managed to book a skiing trip and therefore missed the grand opening.
The sky was clear blue. When we arrived at the fishing spot a strong wind blew in from the sea. The water was high. Good conditions. But not that good fishing. After a whole day of struggling Westler caught three and the rest of the party got a couple as well. But who's counting?
We grilled the sausages, drank the beer and had our coffee. And we told the same fishing stories as the year before. That is what the first of April is really about. The season is open. The hunt is on. For six long months.
When you plan a fishing trip in advance and mark the days in the calendar, you probably don't have a clue what the weather will be like. Sometimes it's nice, sometimes it's not. And sometimes there's a storm.
This was our third trip to Lerhamn. Or the fourth. Either way, we had never caught fish in this place. But it looks and feels really good so we ended up here again. Orrbeck & Westler, featuring Zlatan. And again we catch nothing. Zero. Not even Zlatan scored here.
Usually when you catch nothing you try to come up with a cause. This time it was the wind. Obviously. All the other parameters were fine.
With some hesitation we waded out in the rough sea. Luckily the waves were breaking by the shallow bank just outside of the stone shore. But it surely wasn't a walk in the park. And when we once in a while made a decent cast, a wave flushed the line on to land. The few casts we made that could have resulted in a fish got caught in all the drifting seaweeds. Marabougrisen will have to wait for it's glory.
It started out as a really lousy trip. We had until lunch to fish so we started early. The sun would rise at 06:30 so Zlatan and Westler got on the ferry to Öckerö at 06:10. Öckerö is in the northern archipelago of Göteborg and they had spotted some nice places there on the map.
At first the place on the west side of the island was completely dead. But when the sun started to warm up the sea we could see some activity. Zlatan had a nice mackerel on his white shrimp imitation but lost it after a short fight. Westler had a couple of strikes on his silver streamer. But then Zlatan drops his bag of flies in the water and tries to reach for it. A bad idea on slippery rocks. After Westler managed to pull him out of the sea Zlatan decided to go home for some dry clothes. And so we changed place.
Westler drove ahead to Lilleby, just out of Göteborg. It is a popular beach on the west side of Hisingen. He put on a grey and white wooly bugger on a fast intermediate line and waded out from the beach. No activity on the surface and no strikes on the fly. Half an hour goes by and Westler moves slowly around a small cape with some current around it. And then… BAM! It feels like someone tries to rip the rod out of his hands. The fish runs deep and the reel is screaming. After about two minutes the fish makes a powerful jump and shows itself. This is by far a new PB for Westler. He manages to keep calm and after a 15 minutes of intense fighting and four or five spectacular jumps he landed a seatrout that measured 61 centimeters and weighed 2200 grams. Westler just broke the 50 and 60 cm barrier in one catch. Just outside a family beach in Göteborg.
Tiden flyger iväg. Sommaren dundrar på i oförskämd takt. Juni ägnades främst åt sena nätter med havsöringfiske i och omkring Göteborg. Westler hade ett par riktigt fina nätter med flera hugg och många upp. Inga riktiga spöböjare ännu, men dom kommer… Orrbeck har besökt Vänern och satt PB på gädda och abborre. En snabbvisit till favoritviken i Vättern har det också blivit men där lös harren, öringen, laxen och rödingen med sin frånvaro. Vi kämpar på med fler turer under sommaren och i augusti rullar vi förhoppningsvis till Dalarna i jakt på harr. Därifrån blir säkert något matigare filmreportage också.
I slutet av maj/början av juni åkte Orrbeck till Norge (Molde och Ålesund) i några dagar, ihop med bekanta. Fokus låg inte på fisket denna gången, men ett spinnspö och några skeddrag fick hänga med i packningen. Man har ju hört en del om fisket där… Redan dag två gavs möjlighet till ett par timmars fiske längs klipporna ut mot Atlanten. Det dröjde inte många kast innan spöt böjdes. En sej hade uppskattat mitt silverblå Viking Herring. Sen började huggsexan. Under en period hade både jag och Welander, som var en av deltagarna på resan, hugg på vartannat kast och landade fiskar på vart tredje. Snittet på fångad fisk (mest sej, men också torsk och havsöring) under de timmarna vi fiskade hamnade nånstans runt 2 på 10 kast. De största sejarna låg på mellan 45–50 cm. Det är vi inte bortskämda med längs den svenska västkusten. En av dagarna åkte vi på en utflykt längs med delar av Trollstigen, och det var först då man förstod sitt fatala misstag att inte plocka med sig flugfiskeutrustningen. Kristallklara älvar och fjordar i varierande azurblå och smaragdgröna färger. Allt såg väldigt vadarvänligt ut och priserna för att fiska en heldag var inte avskräckande. Nästa resa till Norge kommer samma misstag inte att upprepas. Då gäller rätt spö i rätt land.
Nu ser vi fram emot ett par månader av sent kvällsfiske med feta öringar längs den svenska kusten och hoppas på att 45:orna växt till sig ytterligare under maj/juni.
Ett av våra favoritställen förra sommaren blev en vik på västra sidan av Hönö. Där tillbringade vi ett antal kvällar med varierande resultat. Några torskar, några gråsejar, några horngäddor, några fjärsingar och ett par öringar. Viken kändes hela tiden som ett hett öringvatten, men vi landade bara några enstaka under hela sommaren. Idag var det dags för nypremiär. Men istället för viken så föreslog Orrbeck ett sund lite längre norrut på ön. Google Maps antydde ett vatten med stor genomströmning och ett potentiellt öringhak. Orrbeck och Welander anlände runt 15-draget. 15.30 brände det till i Orrbecks tafs men kampen blev kort. Några sekunder efter hugget var öringen long gone och Orrbeck hann bara få en skymt av en blank buk i vattenytan. Det vakade på fint under hela eftermiddagen och Westler, som anlände nån timma senare, fick kontakt ganska omgående. Igen. Och igen. Efter någon timma gick allt som det skulle och Westler lyckades landa sin första godkända havsöring med flugspö. 47 centimeter.
En snabb dokumentation och en varsam tillbakasättning följdes av ytterligare ett par hugg under kvällen, men inga fler landade. En fin kväll i Göteborgs yttre skärgård värd att minnas.
Ny månad, nytt försök. Trots – eller snarare på grund av – bomrundan i februari packade vi utrustningen för en ny tripp till Lerhamn, Kullaberg. Vädertjänsterna lovade växlande molnighet, 5–7 grader och svaga vindar. Ett halvt av tre rätt. Svaga vindar efter lunch, men molnen låg tjocka ovanför våra huvuden och termometern på torget i Mölle visade 4°C.
I sällskap av två flugfiskekollegor från Göteborg matade vi Lerhamnsviken med flugor under åtta timmar. Några få vak och nån som "eventuellt hade nafs". Westler lyckades drilla en spigg. Orrbeck tappade hoppet efter lunch och riktade sitt intresse mot fotoväskan där en quadcopter låg redo för avfärd.
Nu glömmer vi bomturerna till Skåne och laddar hårt för öringpremiären i Bohuslän om en månad. Därifrån utlovar(!) vi betydligt mycket mer fisk i bild.

Did you know you that you can tell an entire story without saying anything? It is possible to catch someone's eye and have them react emotionally in an instant.
While this sounds like a near-impossible task, great logos serve that purpose.
Logos are the cornerstone of your identity. It's where a relationship with your customer begins and follows along through their entire journey with you. Like any worthwhile relationship, a certain amount of work is needed. A poorly designed logo may turnoff a customer. The following examples will illustrate why logo design is important for your brand.
You only have mere seconds to show someone what your brand is about. Your customers not only need to see personality but they also need to understand the setting where your brand lives in.
A clear first impression is created, and a picture of where the brand lives is established.
The best form of advertising is word of mouth. Once a customer is in love with your product or company, they can become evangelists for your brand.
Consumers are 92% more likely to trust recommendations from friends and family than any other forms of advertising.
If a friend is wearing a shirt with a logo or they see a sticker on a laptop, curiosity arises in us and we want to know what it stands for.
Logo design that is successful represents the personality of customers as well as the personality of your brand. Customers are not only fans, they are also a part of your culture, and that's a powerful thing.
Having a strong logo raises the chance of standing out from other brands. Beyond just choosing a powerful typeface or symbol, a growing trend is the use of hand-drawn illustration.
Having a mascot gives you the opportunity of owning not only owning a one of a kind piece but being the owner of a character.
Your identity needs to be understood on a local, national, and international level.
Expansion relies heavily on clear communication of what your product does as well as attracting customers. It is no coincidence that the most powerful companies in the world are also some of the most recognizable and influential as well.
Your logo is going to be everywhere, on your website, your t-shirts, your stickers, your business cards, etc. Where ever your business is present your logo will follow, so it is important to make your logo worth it.
Your logo has to tell a tale and create a feeling in your customers.
If your logo can accomplish that, you've told a story without even saying a word.
No doubt having a well-designed logo is important. A great way to get a well-designed logo is by using online logo maker like Logojoy.
Logojoy makes the process of logo creation super easy. Logojoy can automatically generate logos based on questions you answer. If you do not like the suggestions provided, you can request more logos. Once you've chosen a logo it's easy to keep making changes until it's exactly the way you want it.
Great share you given here. LOGO for each business is a great thing in marketing and it becomes good investment for each business from local to international brand.


required to submit HIS-Admission and HIS-Discharge records on all patient admissions and discharges at their Hospice regardless of the patient's payer source, age, or where the patient received Hospice services.
To incentivize compliance, the Annual Payment Update (APU) was reduced by 2 percentage points for any Hospice that did not comply with the quality data submission requirements beginning with Fiscal Year (FY) 2014 and each subsequent FY. It is interesting that the performance level is not a consideration when determining compliance and APU reductions; instead, it is the act of submitting data that determines compliance with Health Quality Reporting Program (HQRP) requirements.
To comply with the FY 2018 requirements, Hospice providers must have submitted at least 70% of all HIS records within 30 days of the event date (patient's admission or discharge) for patient admission/discharges occurring January 1, 2016 to December 31, 2016 (CY 2016). This percentage rate has increased to 80% for CY 2017 and will be 90% for CY 2018.
An updated version of the Hospice Information Set, HIS V2.00, will go into effect on April 1, 2017. If the admission date (A0220 on the HIS-Admission) is on or after April 1, 2017, HIS V2.00 must be used.
To summarize the HIS revisions, there are a total of seven new items which will affect the skip patterns in accommodating the additions. A new section, O- Service Utilization, has been added to collect data regarding Routine Hospice Care (RHC) within the last seven days of life. No items were removed.
In Section A. Administrative Data, two new items were added that are needed for public reporting and recording matching/management. These items are A0550 - Patient ZIP Code and A1400 - Payer Information.
"The determination of whether or not pain is an active problem may be made by the assessing clinician, based on patient-specific findings. In determining whether pain is an active problem for the patient, clinicians may need to consider factors beyond pain severity at the time of the clinical encounter, such as historical report of pain, reports of recent symptoms, current treatment for pain (pharmacologic and/or non-pharmacologic), etc. It is possible that the clinician may determine pain is an active problem for the patient, even if pain is not present during the clinical encounter. Generally, clinical documentation that the patient is currently taking pain medication is evidence that pain is an active problem for the patient (but) comfort kits or pre-printed admission orders alone is insufficient evidence to determine pain is an active problem".
The disciplines for which visits must be reported are Registered Nurse, Licensed Practical Nurse, Physician (or Nurse Practitioner or Physician Assistant), Medical Social Worker, Chaplain or Spiritual Counselor, and Aide. It is significant that they separated the nursing disciplines but combined physicians and physician extenders.
Because the Service Utilization Items are similar to data submitted on the Hospice claim, it is prudent to avoid data discrepancies.

3 safety features to look out when buying a car
Airbags are available for any car to keep passengers safe in the accident. Although there are many different kinds of airbags, including adaptive, dual-stage, and curtain airbags, the latter are seen to be the most successful at keeping passengers safe in a collision because they are so good at keeping people in position to prevent head injuries.
Seatbelts, which were first made available as an option on Ford vehicles in 1948, are today among the most crucial safety components in a vehicle, and drivers who are caught driving without one will be subject to a fine and a penalty. Similar to airbags, they are classified as a Primary Restraint System (PRS), which means they are essential for both the safety and protection of the driver and passengers.
