Postgraduate Professionalism Subcommittee arrow_drop_down
This committee is a subcommittee of the Postgraduate Medical Education (PGME) Committee with the option of appointing additional members representing an affiliated hospital(s) or a non-hospital teaching or research site(s) (henceforth referred to as "non-hospital site"). The committee's mandate is to investigate professionalism complaints involving a resident or fellow, as per the Faculty of Medicine Professionalism Policy. The Postgraduate Professionalism Committee (henceforth referred to as the "Committee") reports to the Vice Dean, PGME, or their delegate, on the cases and the decisions. The decisions of this committee may be appealed to the Faculty Council according to the policies and procedures of the PGME office and the Faculty of Medicine.
SECTION 1: MEMBERSHIP
1.1 Committee membership shall consist of:
Chair, appointed by the Postgraduate Medical Education Committee (three years, renewable once after review);
Assistant Dean, PGME (ex-officio – non-voting);
One Faculty Member, appointed by the Vice Dean, Postgraduate Medical Education (PGME) who is FRCPC certified (three years, renewable once);
One Faculty Member appointed by the Vice Dean, Postgraduate Medical Education (PGME) who is CCFP certified (three years, renewable once);

1.2 It is expected that committee members will attend at least 75% of scheduled meetings. Inability to attend the required percentage of meetings will result in removal from the committee.
SECTION 2: MEETINGS
2.1 The Committee will meet to oversee matters related to residents and fellows as respondents to professionalism complaints; when a professionalism complaint(s) is investigated; when a hearing on a professionalism complaint is conducted; or at the prerogative of the Chair.
2.2 Quorum will be four (4) members, one of which must be the Chair.
SECTION 3: CONFLICT OF INTEREST
3.1 A member of the Committee should recuse him/herself when dealing with an investigation where the member was materially involved in the completion of an evaluation and/or made a recommendation and/or rendered a decision in the matter which is the subject of the complaint. Prior to considering any case, the Chair will disclose any conflict they have and require committee members to do the same. The Chair will also invite committee members to raise any potential conflicts of interest they feel have not been declared by others. All potential conflicts will be reviewed by the committee who will decide if the declarations should result in the member recusing themselves from discussion. These declarations and decisions will be noted in the official minutes of the committee.
SECTION 4: FUNCTIONS OF THE COMMITTEE
4.1 On behalf of the Vice Dean PGME, in relation to a resident or fellow responding to professionalism complaints deemed at Level 2 or higher as per the Faculty of Medicine Professionalism Policy, the Committee:
When applicable, reviews and renders a decision on the appropriateness of information sharing regarding a complaint between affiliated hospitals and the Faculty of Medicine.
Reviews and renders a decision on an investigation process, including the appropriateness of involving the affiliated hospital(s) or non-hospital site(s) in the investigation.
Renders a decision regarding the validity of a Level 2 or 3 complaint.
Reviews and renders a decision on the violation of a Level 2 or 3 complaint, if applicable, as per the Faculty of Medicine Professionalism Policy.
Recommends a course of intervention and follow-up to the Vice Dean, PGME.
SECTION 5: PROCESSES OF THE COMMITTEE
5.1 Professionalism database. The particulars of complaints deemed at Level 2 or higher will be tracked in a central database as per the Faculty of Medicine Professionalism Policy. Any complaint resulting in a formal investigational process, or considered potentially egregious are considered as Level 3 as well. During the investigation of a Level 2 complaint, new information or context may result in escalating the complaint to Level 3.
5.2 Framework for Investigations of Complaints. The approach to investigation of a professionalism complaint will include, but is not limited to, the following elements: a) confirm the lapse; b) understand the context; c) communicate and discuss in a mutually respectful manner; d) encourage self-reflection; e) agree on a plan for remediation, especially at Level 2; f) document the interventions; and g) construct a plan for follow-up. Confidentiality is paramount although it is understood that the necessary processes may make anonymity a challenge.
5.3 Sharing of Information with affiliated hospitals or non-hospital sites. The sharing of details of the complaint between institutions will be considered. Complaints deemed at Level 2 or higher will be reviewed using criteria outlined in the Professionalism Policy, section 7.3.4, and a decision will be made on the appropriateness of such sharing of details between institutions. The resident or fellow and the Program Director responsible will be notified of the decision in writing. Consent is not required for sharing of information with these parties.
5.4 Investigation of a complaint. The Committee is responsible for conducting the investigation of a complaint deemed at Level 3, and has oversight on the investigation of complaints deemed at Level 2, which may be investigated by the Program Director responsible for the resident or fellow. The Committee may retain the advice or assistance of a third party in its investigations. If the sharing of details of the complaint between the resident or fellow and the affiliated hospital(s) or non-hospital site(s) is deemed appropriate as per above, the Committee then makes a decision on a process of investigation as per the Professionalism Policy, section 7.3.7, including inviting a representative to sit on the Committee or nominating a representative from the Committee to participate in the hospital or non-hospital site process of investigation. The resident or fellow and the Program Director responsible will be notified of the process in writing.
5.5 Determining the validity of a complaint. Level 2 complaints are considered formative, with "guided intervention by authority"1, and a formal investigation is not always conducted. As such, the validity of a complaint as per legal standards is not always possible. For Level 3 complaints, a formal investigation is conducted and the Committee will determine the validity of the complaint. Validity of a complaint speaks to the alleged events having occurred or not; it does not speak to the lapse or violation of policies or procedures of the Faculty of Medicine.
5.6 Determining the violation. For Level 2 complaints, an area of potential violation or lapse should be identified as per section 5.2. For Level 3 complaints, the violation as per the Faculty of Medicine Professionalism Policy should be identified. Since the bylaws, policies, and procedures differ somewhat between the Faculty of Medicine and affiliated hospital(s) or non-hospital site(s), a valid complaint may trigger different lapses or violations in the different institutions.
5.7 Determining the intervention. The range of interventions is outlined in the Faculty of Medicine Professionalism Policy, section 6.2. For Level 2 complaints, the Committee and the Program Director/Residency Program Committee responsible for the resident or fellow will jointly create a plan for intervention and follow-up. For Level 3 complaints, the Committee recommends a plan of intervention and follow-up, taking into consideration past cases, stakeholder input, the complainant's input and the respondent's input.
5.8 Report to the Dean. For Level 2 complaints, the Chair of the Committee will provide a summative aggregate report to the Vice-Dean PGME on regular intervals. For Level 3 complaints, a confidential draft report will be provided to the resident or fellow and the responsible Program Director, as per the Faculty of Medicine Professionalism Policy, section 7.3.10. The resident or fellow and the responsible Program Director may provide written comments to the Postgraduate Professionalism Investigation Committee within ten (10) working days. A final report is then sent to the Vice-Dean PGME as per the Faculty of Medicine Professionalism Policy, section 7.3.11, who will determine the final course of action.
SECTION 6: CONDUCT OF HEARING
6.1 The hearing will be for Level 3 complaints to determine the validity of the complaint.
6.2 The hearing will be attended by Committee members only.
6.3 The hearing will be chaired by the Chair. The Committee will decide any issue as to procedure or evidence at the hearing. The Committee will appoint an alternate Chair if the Chair is in conflict.
6.4 Third party advice, assistance, written statements or affidavits may be collected prior to the hearing.
6.5 At the commencement of the hearing, the Chair will summarize the procedure for the hearing and reaffirm the allocated time provided for the hearing among the complainant, the respondent, appropriate witness(es) or written statements.
6.6 The complainant and the respondent will be interviewed separately. Either can have counsel present but counsel are not permitted to participate during the hearing.
6.7 The complainant will make his presentation after which the members of the Committee will be given the opportunity to question the complainant. The complainant will be given the opportunity to make brief closing statements.
6.8 The respondent will then make his presentation after which the members of the Committee will be given the opportunity to question the respondent. The respondent will be given the opportunity to make brief closing statements.
6.9 Since the complainant and respondent are interviewed separately, the Committee may have to deliberate on the evidence and formulate a decision at a later date.
6.10 Summary Minutes of the meeting will be taken by administrative staff,. Hearings are not transcribed verbatim.
SECTION 7: DECISION OF THE HEARING
7.1 The Committee may:
Find the details of the complaint true and valid;
Find some of the details of the complaint to be true and valid;
Find the alleged incident in the complaint to be unsubstantiated at this point and further investigations are needed;
Find the alleged incident in the complaint to be unsubstantiated and no further investigations are needed.
7.2 The decision of the Committee will be by a show of hands, and will be determined by a majority of the members present. The Chair will vote only in the event of a tie. The decision of the Committee will be recorded in the meeting minutes of the Committee. Individual votes will not be recorded.
SECTION 8: NOTICE OF DECISION AND REASONS
8.1 The Chair will draft a decision and reasons for the decision within 3-5 days of the hearing and will send to the Committee for feedback within 3-5 days. The decision and the reasons for the decision will then be sent to the respondent and the responsible Program Director within two (2) weeks of the date of the decision. Copies of the decision and reasons will also be sent to the Vice Dean PGME.
SECTION 9: MINUTES OF THE HEARING
9.1 The minutes of the Postgraduate Professionalism Investigation Committee will include the date and time of the hearing; those present; a brief summary of the hearing; and the Committee's decision and reasons.
SECTION 10: REPORT TO THE FACULTY COUNCIL
10.1 The Chair of the Postgraduate Professionalism Investigation Committee will prepare an annual written report for the Vice-Dean PGME, summarizing the activities of the Committee and its decisions, without disclosing the name(s) of the respondents or complainants involved. The report may also propose any general recommendations to improve professionalism within the Faculty.
SECTION 11: APPEAL OF COMMITTEE'S DECISION
11.1 Decisions of the Postgraduate Professionalism Investigation Committee are final and binding as far as the Faculty of Medicine is concerned.
11.2 A complainant or respondent may appeal the decision of the Postgraduate Professionalism Investigation Committee to the Faculty Council according to the policies and procedures of the Faculty of Medicine PGME office. Any formal discipline, suspension or dismissal of a resident initiated by the hospital would be subject to the grievance procedure in the PARO-CAHO Collective Agreement.

ACCIONA builds largest desalination plant for industrial use in the Med
Category:	Europe
ACCIONA Agua has completed construction of a desalination plant that will provide high-quality demineralised water to the Sarlux refinery (part of the Italian energy group Saras Spa), located in Sarroch, near Cagliari, in Sardinia, Italy.
The plant will be operated by ACCIONA Agua for the next six years, with an estimated daily production of 12,000 m3
The contract, worth 22 million euros, includes design and construction of the desalination plant as well as operation and maintenance for six years, with a possible three-year extension.
The plant has a daily production capacity of 12,000 m3 of demineralised water through such processes as ultrafiltration, reverse osmosis and electrodeionisation (a continuous process to obtain ultra pure water without the need for chemicals).
The treated water will be used in industrial processes carried out by the Italian energy company at its refinery near Cagliari, one of the largest and most complex facilities of its type in Europe.
With a total footprint of approximately 1,260 m2, the plant is the largest desalination plant for industrial use in the Mediterranean.
In the design and construction of the plant, ACCIONA Agua incorporated solutions that minimise environmental impact, costs and installation times, and improve efficiency in overall operation by reducing pressure losses and significantly optimising energy consumption, among other factors.
Broad footprint in Italy
The company described the plant as a step forward in the strategy to diversify its industrial project portfolio in Italy, where it has had a presence since 1999 and where it has extensive experience in construction, operation and maintenance of water treatment facilities.
ACCIONA Agua currently has a portfolio of more than 40 projects in Italy, including drinking water, desalination and waste water treatment plants. It provides services to more than 2.5 million people in Italy and has 345 employees in the country.
The company was recently awarded a contract to maintain and upgrade the water and sewage networks in several municipalities of the Florence province, in the Tuscany region.
Recent landmark projects include upgrading the Florence drinking water treatment plant (one of the largest in Italy) and a waste water treatment plant north of Milan.
The company has been entrusted with maintaining and upgrading the water supply and sewer networks for Turin province, in Piamonte, one of the most important regions in the north of Italy.
On the Pelagie Islands (Pantelleria, Linosa and Lampedusa), the company operates modular desalination plants under a 10-year drinking water supply contract. The company has also carried out major sewage treatment projects in such regions as Sardinia, Lazio, Piamonte, Toscana, Liguria, Emilia Romagna, Apulia and Sicily. Among others, the company built the extension of the Guidonia sewage treatment plant in Rome (serving 45,000 people) and the biofiltration plant in Scicli, as well as upgrading several plants in Bari, Nuoro and Bresso, in Milan.

There really is no educational alternative that matches the personal attention and focused learning environment that a tutor provides. In a large classroom setting, individual needs will not always be addressed, which may cause one to fall behind.
When this happens, people become afraid to ask questions so they won't be singled out or be seen as slowing the class down. Then they fall behind even further without fully understanding the concepts being taught. Others may look to tutors as a study aid for reviewing large sections of curriculum. When it comes to the USMLE or COMLEX, a tutor can be the solution to achieving success on your medical board exams.
Our 8-week programs offer multiple tutoring sessions per week in addition to interactive lectures and practice exams. Our instructors are all M.D.s, and they have helped thousands of students get accepted to some of the most competitive residency programs in the United States.

Mark Millar hired by 20th Century Fox to consult on all their future Marvel Films
by Chris Walk | Sep 28, 2012 | Comics, Movies | 0 comments
In a move that has brought a half-smile to my face, 20th Century Fox has brought on Mark Millar (Civil War, Old Man Logan) as a consultant on all of their future Marvel projects, which now only includes Fantastic Four and X-men (Fox lost Daredevil, thankfully). As much as I would love to see this new endeavour work out, nothing would make me happier than to see Marvel Studios regain all their properties some day. Here's what Millar had to say on the deal:
"As someone who has spent his entire life obsessed with both comic-books and movies, this is essentially my dream gig as it's a unique combination of both. I spent ten years working at Marvel and am really happy with the work I did on the comic side of things so the idea of working with these characters now in a brand new medium is enormously exciting for me. I really like the Fox team, love this bold new direction they have for their franchises and am proud to be working alongside some of modern cinema's biggest talents. James Mangold is incredible, Matthew Vaughn's one of my closest pals and Josh Trank gave us, in my opinion, one of the greatest superhero movies of the last decade with Chronicle. The invitation to join this crew was maybe the coolest phone-call I've ever had."
What I do like about 20th Century Fox is that they have seen how the formula works, that they can't just hash out garbage anymore and expect fans to accept it. There is a lot of hope with X-men, and the Wolverine movie looks to be shaping up. I didn't totally hate the previous Fantastic Four movies, but I also know they can be much better. So let's see what Mr Millar brings to the table!

Midnight's Furies: The Deadly Legacy of India's Partition
by Nisid Hajari - History, Nonfiction
Nobody expected the liberation of India and birth of Pakistan to be so bloody. Jawaharlal Nehru, Gandhi's protégé and the political leader of India, believed Indians were an inherently nonviolent, peaceful people. Pakistan's founder, Mohammad Ali Jinnah, was a secular lawyer, not a firebrand. But in August 1946, exactly a year before Independence, Calcutta erupted in street-gang fighting, and a cycle of riots spiraled out of control. From jihadi terrorism to nuclear proliferation, the searing tale told in MIDNIGHT'S FURIES explains all too many of the headlines we read today.

The report by the committee on external affairs termed the Chinese intrusion at Doklam as a "blatant but unsuccessful attempt" to unilaterally change the status quo at the India, Bhutan, China tri-junction.
It took 13 rounds of diplomatic discussions between India and China to resolve the face off between their militaries in Doklam last year, according to a report by a parliamentary panel.
The report by the committee on external affairs termed the Chinese intrusion at Doklam as a "blatant but unsuccessful attempt" to unilaterally change the status quo at the India, Bhutan, China tri-junction in Doklam, seriously affecting India's security interests.
The committee also referred to 24 rounds of boundary talks between China and Bhutan and said China has been trying to persuade it to barter Doklam for some other territory further north and that Bhutan requires all support and assurances from its "time tested" ally India for it to take a firm position on this issue.
The committee, headed by former minister of state in External Affairs Ministry Shashi Tharoor, said Doklam was not a sovereignty issue for India as the disputed territory was Bhutanese, but nevertheless it was a major security challenge for New Delhi.
"The committee would like to put on record their highest appreciation for the brave and timely action of our security forces which checked the PLA (People's Liberation Army) troops from continuing with their road construction activity in South Doklam," the panel said in the report tabled in Parliament on Monday.
The report quoted the then Foreign Secretary S Jaishankar as telling the panel on October 18 last year that 13 rounds of diplomatic discussions were held with China and they were led by the Indian envoy in Beijing.
Vijay Gokhale, who succeeded Jaishankar as Foreign Secretary in January, was India's Ambassador to China during the Doklam crisis.
The report said diplomatic communications with China began following Prime Minister Narendra Modi's conversation with Chinese President Xi Jinping in Hamburg on July 7 last year on the sidelines of the G20 summit.
In the talks, India contested the Chinese claim of sovereignty in Doklam region, conveyed to Beijing that its action represented a significant change in status quo with serious security implications for India and amounted to unilateral determination of the tri-junction point, according to then foreign secretary.
It expressed concerns over multiple reports which allude to Chinese presence around Doklam plateau and the statements from Chinese authorities about chances of similar happenings in future also even after the standoff at Doklam ended.
"The government has categorically denied that there is any direct threat from Chinese troops presently. The committee, however, are of the opinion that while dealing with China, it is always better to have a sense of 'healthy scepticism'," it said.
The foreign secretary was quoted in the report as saying that during the entire course of the Doklam standoff, the ground situation was "very civil and that there was no body contact".
It also said that it was not the first time that PLA troops entered the Doklam area and that the Chinese troops have been crossing the Batang La-Meruga La-Sinchela Ridge line over the years and making ingress into the Bhutanese territory.

Академік НАН РВ (1996), доктор фізико-математичних наук (1972), професор (1983). Заслужений діяч науки Вірменської РСР (1991). Директор Єреванського фізичного інституту (1973—1992).

Дослідження відносяться до антиферомагнітної квантової теорії, створення детекторів нового типу ультрарелятивістських частинок, теорії елементарних частинок, створення нових методів прискорення частинок.

Біографія
Андрій Цолакович Аматуні народився 10 січня 1928 року в Ленінграді, в сім'ї партійних діячів. Батько Цолак Аматуні і мати Асмік Пап'ян були бійцями загону , працювали в Томську, Свердловську, Ленінграді, Москві, Ростові-на-Дону. У 1937 році Цолак Аматуні був репресований, у 1938 році — помер, а в 1956 році реабілітований.

Андрій Аматуні закінчив Єреванську середню школу № 20. У 1945 році він поступив на фізико-математичний факультет Єреванського державного університету, звідки в 1948 році перевівся на фізичний факультет Московського державного університету, який закінчив у 1950 році.

У 1950 році викладав на факультеті загальної фізики Єреванського російського педагогічного інституту (нині ЄДЛУМСН імені Брюсова). З того ж року по 1988 рік він читав лекції зі спеціальних курсів теоретичної фізики на фізичному факультеті Єреванського державного університету. У 1954—1956 роках Аматуні навчався в аспірантурі Московського університету під керівництвом доктора фізико-математичних наук, професора . Там само в 1956 році він захистив кандидатську дисертацію на тему «До теорії антиферомагнетизму». На становлення Андрія Аматуні як фізика справили істотний вплив також Микола Миколайович Боголюбов, Лев Давидович Ландау, .

З 1956 року Андрій Аматуні був старшим науковим співробітником Єреванського фізичного інституту. У 1972 році він захистив докторську дисертацію на тему «Деякі питання теорії випромінювання і фізики елементарних частинок». У 1965—1973 роках був першим заступником директора, а в 1973—1992 роках — директором Єреванського фізичного інституту. У 1983 році отримав вчене звання професора.

Андрій Аматуні був головою спеціалізованої ради при Єреванському фізичному інституті за спеціальністю «теоретична і математична фізика», «фізика елементарних частинок і атомного ядра», членом наукових рад АН СРСР з ядерної фізики, фізики елементарних взаємодій, з проблеми «Космічні промені», членом правління товариства «Знання» Вірменської РСР, членом редакційної колегії журналу «Вісті АН Вірменської РСР. Фізика». Член КПРС з 1963 року. Обирався членом Єреванського міського комітету КП Вірменії, депутатом Єреванської міської Ради народних депутатів.

Андрій Аматуні є автором понад 100 наукових праць з теорії антиферомагнетизму, теорії випромінювання і іонізаційних втрат заряджених частинок, прикладної фізики.

У 1996 році Андрій Аматуні був обраний дійсним членом Національної академії наук Республіки Вірменія.

Андрій Цолакович Аматуні помер 10 жовтня 1999 року від серцевого нападу в літаку, по дорозі на наукову конференцію в Японії. Похований в Єреванському міському пантеоні.

Наукова діяльність
У період навчання в аспірантурі Московського університету (1954—1956) Андрій Аматуні виконав низку робіт з квантової теорії антиферомагнетизму. Застосований ним метод Тябликова — Боголюбова дозволив повніше дослідити основні та збуджені стани антиферомагнетизму. Цим дослідженням була присвячена кандидатська дисертація Аматуні.

З 1958 року Андрій Аматуні здійснив роботи зі створення фізичного проекту Єреванського синхротрона, розробив проект системи інжекції електронів у синхротрон. Він брав участь у створенні проекту  — накопичувача електронів на базі існуючого прискорювача.

У 1960—1964 роках Андрій Аматуні виконав цикл робіт з теорії перехідного випромінювання. Ним розглядалися розмитість границі поділу, вплив просторової дисперсії на спектр перехідного випромінювання, перехідне випромінювання електричних і магнітних диполів. Вирішені завдання з теорії перехідного випромінювання сприяли з'ясуванню можливостей її практичного використання у фізиці високих енергій.

З 1965 року Андрій Аматуні виконав роботи з фізики елементарних часток. Він отримав низку результатів з теорії фотопородження мезонів за високих енергій у моделі комплексних моментів ( — , ,  і псевдоскалярні — , ). Аматуні ефективно застосував методи нелінійного функціонального аналізу до розв'язування деяких рівнянь теорії елементарних частинок.

Андрій Аматуні в рамках магнітної гідродинаміки вирішив завдання щодо прискорення пучків заряджених частинок при проходженні через плазму. Ним запропоновано варіант лазерного прискорення заряджених частинок поверхневою хвилею, що виникає при повному внутрішньому відбитті.

Château De Lavernette Cuvée Jean Jacques De Boissieu Pouilly Fuisse 2013, Château du Tertre Margaux Grand Cru Classe 2013, Castello di Bossi Corbaia 2011, Raymond Usseglio Cuvée Impériale Châteauneuf-du-Pape 2013.
Nose: Sour green apple, unripe peach, light yeast, floral, crushed stone.
Palate: Dry, medium-bodied, high acidity. Green apples, pineapple, mineral.
Decent Pouilly-Fuisse, the nose shows a lot of sour fruits, and touch of yeasty/bready aroma. Mouthwatering acidity, showing true to the nose with green apples and pineapple note, touch of minerality as well. Should develop well with a few more years in the cellar.
Nose: Juicy plum, black raspberry, touch of barnyard and forest floor.
Palate: Dry, medium bodied, medium+ acidity, medium+ tannins. Plum, blackberry, strawberry, salt.
Finish: Long finish, savoury, and a touch of pepper.
The 2013 vintage of Chateau du Tertre is still quite young, and the colour was surprisingly light. The nose and palate is rather simple, and the structure isn't there to support it. Fruit dominate, doesn't have the complexity of a good Margaux even at this age. Approachable now but hold till 2020, would expect a shorter drinking window.
Nose: Red cherry, light rubber band note, potpourri, dried apricot, orange peel, black tea.
Palate: Dry, medium+ bodied, medium+ acidity, medium+ tannins. Red cherry, salt, plum, pressed flower.
Finish: Medium+ finish, touch of mineral.
Well-made super Tuscan, very attractive nose of floral and dried fruit elements. Great structure and balance on the palate, the dark fruits and floral notes shows decent complexity. Could use a few more years for the notes to fully harmonize. Would hold till 2019-2020.
Nose: Whiff of vanilla, strawberry gum, plum, touch of black currant leaf, pepper and touch of floral.
Palate: Dry, full-bodied, medium acidity, medium+ tannins. Mandarin orange peel, plum, raspberry, tree sapling, blackberry.
Finish: Medium+ finish, tree sapling, pepper.
Not my style of Chateauneuf-du-Pape, I prefer a less fruity, and more rustic style, preferably with smoky and meaty notes. But this does show decent depth and potential, above average complexity. On the fruity side. Approachable now or hold for 3-5 more years.

Now is that evil or what? It was almost like she hired me just to get my kidney
by [email protected] | Apr 24, 2012 | News | 0 |
A New York Long Island woman said she was fired after she donated a kidney to help save the life of her boss.
Debbie Stevens, a 47-year-old divorced mother of two, filed a formal complaint with the New York State Human Rights Commission last Friday, claiming her boss used her for her organ then fired her "after the woman got what she wanted." Stevens' boss, 61-year-old Jackie Brucia, is one of the West Islip controllers for Atlantic Automotive Group, a billion-dollar dealership operator. Brucia hired Stevens in January 2009 as an assistant. "She just started treating me horribly, viciously, inhumanly after the surgery," Stevens told ABCNews.com. "It was almost like she hired me just to get my kidney."


"My dad told me that if I got through MIT, I could do anything," James Tanabe '00, '01 remembers. After studying earth, atmospheric, and planetary sciences and physics at MIT (while also learning stunt coordination and professional dance on the side), Tanabe pursued his ultimate dream—joining the circus. "Having that MIT experience, I knew it was something I could go back to as I took a giant leap," he says.

The 2010 documentary 'Cut, Poison, Burn" provides revealing insight into the medical monopoly of cancer 'treatment', as a four year old boy who was diagnosed with brain cancer was compelled to undergo a system of chemo, surgery and radiation, against his parents wishes. He was not allowed access to a proven method of alternative treatment. The medical system's response was callous. The authorities threatened to take the boy into custody and charged his parents with child abuse if the medical option was not opted for.
The boy's death certificate states his cause of death as: "respiratory failure due to chronic toxicity of chemotherapy".
It is easy to conclude after watching the film that what we have here is some kind of corrupt racket. Indeed, the 2009 documentary 'The Idiot Cycle' claims that some of the world's top cancer causing culprits (including, it is claimed, Bayer, BASF, Dow, Dupont, Monsanto, Syngenta, Novartis, Pfizer, among others) are profiting from the production of cancer-causing products and then some of the same companies are investing in profitable cancer 'treatments'.
Whistleblowers like Chopra are playing a valuable role by exposing corrupt practices, and films like 'Cut, Burn, Poison' and 'The Idiot Cycle' are helping to shed light on the failure of the 'war on cancer' (war on drugs, war on terror… corrupt practices and failure – a common theme). At the same time, a number of pressure groups are actually engaged in trying to phase out the use of carcinogenic chemicals in products. As was the case when the tobacco companies were taken on, though, tackling the interests of powerful state-corporate actors is likely to be a long and arduous affair.

1990 G RENAULT 5 1.4 RAID TURBO 3d 120 BHP
TBC CO² (g/km)
-- Avg. MPG
Call for finance deals
Owners: 11
The Renault 5 GT Turbo has become a bit of a cult car. When it was released in 1985, it was hailed as a revelation, being quicker than its main competitor, Peugeot's 205 GTI, and quickly became a favourite amongst the hot hatch fraternity. Powered by a turbocharged 1.4 litre powerplant, early GT Turbos pushed out 113bhp, which whilst considered low by today's standards, propelled the car to 60mph from standstill in just 7.5 seconds, making it a formidable opponent on twisty European roads. In 1990, Renault launched the special edition 'Raider' model, built as a final edition swansong before production ceased in 1991. Every car was exactly the same-finished in deep metallic blue, with matching alloy wheels and unique interior. The Raider was bestowed with an uprated ignition system, water cooled turbo and an extra 500 rpm, meaning 118bhp and a 0-60 time of as near as dammit 7 seconds. It may be 30 years old, but the GT Turbo Raider is still a properly quick little car, which led Richard Hammond to say "Few modern hot hatches can get near the sense of barely restrained, joyous hooliganry that the little Renault gives, and I, for one, could live with one very, very happily." High praise indeed. This particular Raider has lived a sheltered and cossetted life, having been owned by a string of enthusiasts, covering just 57,000 miles since it first hit the road. Thanks to the Ali G Movie in 2002, many GT Turbos were heavily modified and scrapped, leading to numbers dwindling significantly, making them a rare car nowadays. This example is even rarer having never been modified, other than the previous owner slightly lowering the car to improve handling, a modification that can easily be removed as part of the sale should the buyer wish. Due to the aforementioned boy-racer trend, and many being scrapped for engine failures or terminal rot, GT Turbos, and Raiders in particular, have become exceptionally rare and collectable cars. In fact, this Raider is one of less than two-hundred left in the UK, and as people look to relive their youth, values are rising dramatically, making this the perfect investment for the savvy collector.

Dr. Tommy Comeaux's legend plays on. By Anna Purdy

If the measure of a man is how well he treats his friends, a new ruler needs to be made for the late Tommy Comeaux. Fifteen years after his death, both friends and strangers revere and remember Comeaux. He was Dr. Comeaux at Our Lady of Lourdes as a pathologist. He was Tommy to friends on stage with his bands BeauSoleil, The Basin Brothers, The Clickin' Chickens and Coteau, and to his friends who shared his passion for horticulture and bicycling.
It was this last passion that tragically led to his death. In 1997, Comeaux was biking when a driver of a vehicle suffered a seizure, lost control and struck him. A few weeks later Comeaux's friends, coworkers and family put together the very first Medicine Show to raise money for the Dr. Tommy Comeaux Memorial Endowed Fund for Traditional Music at UL.
By 2010 the committee behind the endowed fund had raised more than $600,000 and, coupled with state matching funds to reach $1 million, hired ethnomusicologist Dr. Mark DeWitt to build the indigenous music program at UL. Students are now taking classes in Cajun music at the university in the heart of Cajun country.
Wilson Savoy of the Pine Leaf Boys is teaching one of its first classes. In a turnaround that would no doubt bemuse Comeaux, Savoy is teaching the very thing that caused some discord at UL several years ago.
"We used to play music on the campus at UL and put out a guitar case for whoever wanted to throw in a few dollars," recalls Savoy, brother of fiddler/multi-instrumentalist Joel Savoy; both are sons of Eunice accordion maker/player Marc Savoy and chanteuse Ann Savoy.
"One day, while a few of us were playing music on the street on campus, a cop told us to tear down and stop playing. All the while, cars were zooming by blasting crap music on their radios and we were playing acoustic Cajun music on campus. Needless to say, we were upset and the media jumped in and began writing stories.
Before long, the Pine Leaf Boys was formed.
"It's the very definition of irony as well as a sign of maturity," Savoy adds. "I never admitted that we were doing anything wrong because I know we were not, but when the university asked me to come back [to teach] I was interested in doing it through an academic setting with kids who were interested in learning Cajun tunes. That was our mission from day one, six years ago - to spark interest in college kids' ears and get them involved with our music."

An Ohio native, DeWitt first tasted Louisiana music while studying in Berkeley, Calif. "Everyone who knew Tommy thought they alone had a special relationship - only to find out that there was a thousand other people who had just as special of a relationship. There was something about the way that he related to people that was very generous and made them feel like there is this special connection," DeWitt says.
Although DeWitt never knew Comeaux, you get the impression he did - that is how pervasive Comeaux's memory remains. This year the Medicine Show is held at 8 p.m. Saturday, Nov. 26, at Vermilionville featuring Sonny Landreth, Al Berard, Steve Conn, Pine Leaf Boys, special guest Cedric Watson and plenty more. All funds raised benefit the endowment.
Traditional music programs, says DeWitt, aren't too common around the U.S. His hope is that this program can preserve and perpetuate Cajun and zydeco music and also teach students about world music in general and how many crossover styles and instruments exist.
Medicine shows were traveling wagon shows with people peddling elixirs to fix everything from earaches to balding. These "snake oil salesmen" offering cures that were not much more than moonshine diluted with water and herbs often traveled with a circus or musical acts to draw a crowd. In the case of this Medicine Show, it's a loving wink at Comeaux's career and offers music as an audible cure for hearts that can't forget the man who never knew a stranger.
