GENEVA – Chris Lauzen believes Kane County faces a number of problems.
Lauzen, County Board chairman, often will steer discussions of county issues to his concerns over the county's high home foreclosure rate and unemployment levels.
As a candidate in 2012, Lauzen also spent time arguing against what he considered the county's "culture of corruption," which he said interfered with the local government's ability to address issues facing its residents.
But, as an elected official in Kane County, Lauzen, an Aurora Republican and former state senator, said he believes the county government's culture can change – and it can do so without major staffing shake-ups within the county departments that Lauzen oversees.
"The culture of county government is changing, and will reflect three priorities," Lauzen said. "Living within our means, no 'pay-to-play' behavior and instituting best management practices.
"Those are the things that matter to the taxpayers, and the staff we have in place is highly competent and able to accomplish those goals."
In the November election, Lauzen, eight County Board members, a circuit court clerk, an auditor and a coroner were swept into office, with many promising to change county government.
But since taking office about two months ago, officials have indicated that anyone believing those changes would translate into new names and faces in the ranks of the county government's employed staff should look elsewhere – even though most of those now in positions of leadership within the county staff were either employed or promoted under previous county administrations.
Lauzen and Tom Hartwell, Kane County circuit court clerk, indicated they will not make major changes among staff, beyond simple reorganizations or hiring to fill vacancies that have occurred as the result of resignations or retirements.
Lauzen said he is seeking to hire a finance director to fill a position that has remained vacant since former Kane County Finance Director Cheryl Pattelli resigned to take a similar position in Boulder, Colo.
Lauzen also seeks to hire a director of Kane County Animal Control to fill a vacancy open since early 2012.
But any big changes appear to come in the form of processes and policies, rather than people.
Hartwell said he believes longtime government employees can embrace new ways of doing things if they are given the right cues from their elected leaders.
Hartwell said he intends to "reorganize" the processes in the office, but is focusing most of his efforts on modernizing the circuit clerk's office's technology. And Lauzen said his efforts would be focused on his core priority of holding the line on the county's property tax levy at all costs.
He said that task may include "streamlining" operations and increasing efficiency, where he believes such goals may be needed.
But Lauzen said discussing staff would distract from what he believes are the problems in the county.
"I am going to change things, and we will be doing things a bit differently," Lauzen said. "But in getting to know the staff, I've found they are pleasant people, and they're smart and dedicated to our constituents.
"Really, what I'm concentrating on right now is doing what it would take to make sure we're meeting the challenges, as a [County] Board, that need to be met."

Google Fights BackBy Ericka Chickowski | Posted 2008-06-26 Print
Although Google has made some key security acquisitions and added talented security pros to its team, many IT and security managers still won't trust their enterprise applications to the company's cloud offerings.
Google Fights Back
Google's team believes there's no need for businesses to boycott its software offerings due to security concerns. First, the company claims it has done a sufficient job hardening its software and its service infrastructure with enterprise-class security. Even though Google has chosen not to disclose security details—including where its data centers reside, how many people it employs in its security department and specifically how it protects its server farms against attack—its security bigwigs say appropriate steps have been taken.
"Security is a philosophy here at Google," Feigenbaum says. "The way we develop applications is through a security process whereby one person develops it, then the code goes through a security tool to look for vulnerabilities, and another person QAs that and looks for common vulnerabilities.
"Your grandma says you don't put all your eggs in one basket, but here, we do put all our eggs in one basket—but we guard that basket really well."
Feigenbaum hopes that in the future, Google will be able to work with other SaaS vendors, such as Salesforce.com and Amazon, to develop security standards or accreditations to assure users that Google is taking the right steps. In the interim, he says, Google is doing its best to give business customers peace of mind through alternative means. For example, the company brought in a third-party auditor to look over its practices in detail and come up with a report Google can provide to potential customers in lieu of giving them access to conduct their own audits.
"We can't let everyone audit us," Feigenbaum says. "Most Googlers don't even know where our data centers are, let alone visiting one. We don't open up our doors and share that, but we did bring in an independent third party to look at what we do, and we are offering those reports to our customers or prospective customers."
Even though Google doesn't publish any details about its data centers, Feigenbaum says its application uptime should speak for itself. "Our uptime rivals the uptime most organizations have for their in-house e-mail," he says. "Every single bit of data Google gets from an Apps customer is replicated multiple times within a single data center and multiple times within another data center. So it already has a built-in backup and recovery. Even if an entire data center went down, a user wouldn't know."
In some ways, Feigenbaum says, putting company data in the cloud is more secure than the existing model. "Since we're a multitenant environment, Company A's data is literally spread out and shared across the entire Google infrastructure," he explains. "So, even if you managed to make it into our secret data centers and penetrate all our physical security, you'd still be searching for a needle in a haystack."
In addition, Feigenbaum says Google is able to turn one of its biggest risks into a security team asset. "Regardless of Apps, Google had a big target on its back from the search businesses," he says. "It's a very sexy thing to attack and break, which is really great, believe it or not. I can say there's a whole bunch of criminals out there doing really bad stuff, or I can say there's a whole bunch of security researchers that allow me to make my team smarter. We can learn from any attack against Google.com or our other businesses and use that knowledge to protect our infrastructure."
Feigenbaum adds that Google has been able to prove the security of its offerings by relying on them for its own day-to-day business operations. "If an offering can't work and run in a complex environment like Google, we can't expect our customers to use it," he says. "All our classified, confidential information is stored in the same way on the same machine we're using to store our customers' information. That's why everything goes through extensive testing and internal deployment before we release it. Security is baked in from Day 1."

Here's a simple script that I created a short time ago while investigating a memory problem on a client site. The purpose of writing the script was, as always, to strip the client's code back to a bare minimum in an attempt to work out the root cause of a problem. (Warning: if you want to run this script, your Oracle shadow process will grab about 1GB of PGA RAM )
define m_string_length = 200 drop table t1 purge; create table t1(v1 varchar2( &m_string_length )); create or replace procedure p1 ( i_rowcount in number default 1000000, i_bulk_pause in number default 0, i_forall_pause in number default 0, i_free_pause in number default 0 ) as type w_type is table of varchar2( &m_string_length ); w_list w_type := w_type(); w_free w_type := w_type(); begin for i in 1..i_rowcount loop w_list.extend; w_list(i) := rpad('x', &m_string_length ); end loop; dbms_lock.sleep(i_bulk_pause); forall i in 1..w_list.count insert into t1 values(w_list(i)); dbms_lock.sleep(i_forall_pause); commit; w_list := w_free; dbms_session.free_unused_user_memory; dbms_lock.sleep(i_free_pause); end; /
The procedure simply fills a pl/sql array with data, then uses the forall insert syntax to write the whole lot into a table. The first version of the code used a select with bulk collect to load the array (emulating the job run by the client), but I wanted to make the code even simpler.
After creating the table and procedure I simply called the procedure and, in a slightly more complex version of the code, introduced some long wait times (using dbms_lock.sleep) between steps. Then I used another session (logged on as SYS) to monitor what demands this procedure made for RAM for the PGA as it ran.
This is the code I ran from the monitoring session (supplying the SID from the first session as the input parameter):
rem rem Simple script to check memory usage for a given SID rem Last tested rem 10.2.0.3 rem define m_sid = &1 column name format a40 column value format 999,999,999,999 column category format a10 column allocated format 999,999,999,999 column used format 999,999,999,999 column max_allocated format 999,999,999,999 column pga_used_mem format 999,999,999,999 column pga_alloc_mem format 999,999,999,999 column pga_freeable_mem format 999,999,999,999 column pga_max_mem format 999,999,999,999 select name, value from v$sesstat ss, v$statname sn where sn.name like '%ga memory%' and ss.statistic# = sn.statistic# and ss.sid = &m_sid ; select category, allocated, used, max_allocated from v$process_memory where pid = ( select pid from v$process where addr = ( select paddr from V$session where sid = &m_sid ) ) ; select pga_used_mem, pga_alloc_mem, pga_freeable_mem, pga_max_mem from v$process where addr = ( select paddr from V$session where sid = &m_sid ) ;
The figures I'm after are just the session and process memory from v$sesstat, and the two different ways of reporting process memory from v$process and v$process_memory. These are the results I got on a database running 10.2.0.3. The set immediately below reports the state of PGA memory just after after the creation of the array, the set of results further down the page reports the same information just after the call to the procedure has ended.
NAME VALUE ---------------------------------------- ---------------- session uga memory 221,824 session uga memory max 221,824 session pga memory 313,843,284 session pga memory max 313,843,284 CATEGORY ALLOCATED USED MAX_ALLOCATED ---------- ---------------- ---------------- ---------------- SQL 1,008 104 55,276 PL/SQL 22,412 17,848 22,412 Other 627,269,497 627,269,497 PGA_USED_MEM PGA_ALLOC_MEM PGA_FREEABLE_MEM PGA_MAX_MEM ---------------- ---------------- ---------------- ---------------- 235,870,025 627,292,917 0 627,292,917
You'll notice several key points.
First (obviously) v$sesstat tells use that we've used a lot of memory – which isn't too surprising since we generated 1,000,000 character strings of length 200, so we know we're going to see at least a couple of hundred megabytes of RAM being used.
But there's much more to see in these three result sets. The report from v$process_memory says we've allocated more than 600MB in the "Other" category – which is a little surprising since (a) we know that we've used the memory for a pl/sql array – so why is it in "Other" – and (b) it's twice as much memory as reported in v$sesstat and (c) we don't see any of it in the "Used" column.
In fact, a dump of the pga and uga heaps (oradebug dump heapdump 5) shows that we have 313mb of RAM in the pga heap, of which 77MB is marked as free (but not yet released from the heap). From this we we can probably infer that the code maintaining v$process_memory is broken. I suspect that we really ought to see that 313MB should in both the "Allocated" and "Used" columns with, quite possibly, that 77MB appearing in a separate row (not visible in this report) for the category "Freeable".
Note that the report from v$process is closer to the actual state given by the heap dump. It shows pga_used_mem at 236M – which means that the 77M free from the heap dump is correctly subtracted from the 313MB total, but possibly that 77MB should be reported as "PGA_Freeable_Mem", rather than disappearing completely. This view still has a problem, though: the pga_alloc_mem and pga_max_mem are both displaying the same doubling effect as v$process_memory.
Bottom line: v$sesstat seems to show you most of the truth, with v$process helping you to seperate the freeable memory out from the currently allocated memory, but both v$process and v$process_memory are not to be trusted. (Some of these anomalies are still present in 184.108.40.206 by the way).
The next bit of output shows you the report results after the procedure call had completed:
NAME VALUE ---------------------------------------- ---------------- session uga memory 498,681,064 session uga memory max 498,681,064 session pga memory 598,662,740 session pga memory max 911,924,820 CATEGORY ALLOCATED USED MAX_ALLOCATED ---------- ---------------- ---------------- ---------------- SQL 3,024 516 55,276 PL/SQL 488,711,516 4,222,224 488,711,516 Other 110,135,753 736,607,661 PGA_USED_MEM PGA_ALLOC_MEM PGA_FREEABLE_MEM PGA_MAX_MEM ---------------- ---------------- ---------------- ---------------- 498,885,505 598,850,293 0 1,225,374,453
This is extraordinary. The session has allocated – and is still holding – more than 488MB in the PL/SQL category just because of that one million row insert. (My client was processing 3.8 million rows, and they "lost" 7.7GB of memory to this operation – the memory loss gives the appearance of growing geometrically with the number of rows).
In fact the penality is more than that 488MB; the memory that had been allocated for the bulk collect in category "Other" has been released and the 110MB still remaining in that categiry is also a side effect of the forall insert.
Note, by the way, that the pga_max_mem from v$process_memory is still 313M higher than it should be, as is the max_allocated in the "Other" category in v$process_memory.
When I first saw this behaviour I decided it was obviously a bug and spent a good 20 minutes searching Metalink for possible matches without success (I was looking for "forall insert", if I'd tried "bulk insert" I would have had more luck) – so I forwarded my test case to the rest of the Oak Table to see if they had any thoughts about it and got a fairly prompt reply from Tanel Poder that this was bug 5866410. (He'd done a pga heapdump, and searched Metalink for the label of the memory type that was using most of the space – like all good strategies it was so obvious after it had been explained !)
The bug is a pl/sql memory leak in "forall insert…" It's fixed in 220.127.116.11 and 10.2.0.5, with backports available to 10.2.0.3 and 10.2.0.4 on a couple of platforms so far (Solaris and IBM ZLinux as I write).
So if your code does very large "forall insert" calls and you see Oracle error ORA-04030 from time to time, or workarea operations dumping to disc unexpectedly, you may temporarily be losing large amounts of memory to this bug – in which case check Metalink for the bug number and see if there's a patch that's good for your platform. (And if you're on 10.2.0.3 or 10.2.0.4 and there isn't a patch for your platform yet, there's a reasonable chance you can get one created since it's already been done on a couple of other platforms.)

Jenni JWOWW Farley might have been in full spring break mode rocking the bikini and calling for a plate of sliders at L.A.'s Tropicana over the weekend. But she's still in the dark about the details of the upcoming season.
The producers of "Jersey Shore" are still keeping the carefully guarded details from the cast and the world, though speculation has centered on Miami.
"I just want to know when and where," she told Popcorn Biz from the Springbreakitdown.com party. "They want that element of surprise."
All the producers have said is that this season of "Jersey Shore" will not be on the Jersey Shore.
"I feel like we conquered Jersey anyways," says Farley. "We can put it behind us."
But not knowing does make for some packing dilemmas. JWOWW is confident that a bikini or two will be needed, so that's ready.
"Knowing it's March, April we'll be filming, I think it'll be warm," she says. "I'm thinking Miami or Vegas or a spring break town like Cancun. Mexico. Or even A/C. That's a good time. That means Atlantic city."
But even if the location for It show of the season is tundra-filled Greenland, she's ready to take it on.
"There's no place I won't want to go," she says. "I'll go anywhere for this opportunity."

Laughs on Fairmont. Like a Hollywood award show, or that time I was mugged — it was an epic event I will never forget. But when I try to recall what happened — now two weeks later — I realize it isn't what they said that left the largest impression on me … it's what they wore.
Here is a brief, fair and balanced run-down on what each of the 30+ stand-ups wore:
John Kensil — A straw-colored flannel rolled two inches above his elbows, a black watch, blue rubber band, blue jeans, and black dress shoes with a squared front.
Mary Radzinski — A purple blouse with a comfortable-looking gray robe over, blue jeans, and silver hoop earrings.
Luke Giordano — A gray bed-looking shirt, buttoned except for the top two buttons, blue jeans with three small holes, one larger hole, tucked into the back of his left sock.
Carolyn Busa — Denim shirt, a torquoise charm necklace, a brown dress, and brown boots.
Ryan Marley — A mostly white with darker striped bed shirt, black dress shoes with no laces, right pant leg tucked over the right shoe.
LaTice — A purple blouse over a black shirt that covered to the wrists with 3 pearly buttons, blue jeans, and gold earrings that looked like little caterpillars.
Jason Hazelwood — Gently worn jeans with a pocket chain, a black bowling shirt with black lettering that spelled "Motel" in a Ren-And-Stimpy-esque font, with tan and black Adidas.
Scott Terry — Off-white t-shirt over a white t-shirt, black shoes, jeans.

Agriculture Secretary Continues Push for Comprehensive, Multi-Year Legislation that Would Support Efforts to Revitalize the Rural Economy
LUBBOCK, TX, June 14, 2013 – Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack today visited Texas Tech University, where he met with agriculture leaders about the need for Congressional action on a Food, Farm and Jobs Bill, as well as a solution to fix America's broken immigration system. Later in the day, he toured an area farm to view drought impacts and discuss the importance of a strong farm safety net.
"I'm inspired by the innovation and productivity of America's farmers and ranchers, particularly folks who were hit hard by drought in recent years," said Vilsack. "They're getting the job done, and Washington owes them more certainty. That's why we need passage of a Food, Farm and Jobs Bill, along with a solution to fix our broken immigration system."
During the visit, the Secretary discussed the Obama Administration's comprehensive strategy to revitalize the rural economy in an effort to expand job creation and innovation. He also noted that a comprehensive Food, Farm and Jobs Bill would include important rural development programs, preserve a strong farm safety net, maintain nutrition programs, encourage the development of local and regional markets, and enhance the conservation efforts of U.S. farmers and ranchers.
The disaster assistance programs authorized under the 2008 Farm Bill provided more than $5.6 billion for U.S. producers impacted by natural disaster. More than $1.2 billion of that funding was provided to Texas producers, much of it to help during an historic drought that impacted the State in 2011. The authorization for those programs expired last year. While some programs contained in the 2008 Farm Bill were extended in January, the disaster programs have not been reauthorized.
"We have a responsibility to continue to create new opportunity in our small towns and rural communities," said Vilsack. "We will continue growing opportunity for agriculture by making smart investments to expand local and regional marketing, conservation initiatives and biobased product creation. But it all starts on America's farms - and we owe producers the certainty of a strong and defensible safety net."
Vilsack also discussed the Obama Administration's support for Congress to act this year on comprehensive immigration reform. The Secretary noted that America has the most productive agriculture sector on earth - but that today's broken immigration system leaves producers without a reliable source of farm labor. He said that comprehensive immigration reform would be good for farm workers, positive for businesses and ultimately a driving factor to improve the rural economy.

Something useless for xmas
I needed a ~$5 gift for family xmas this year, and was at a loss. Then I remembered the Useless Machine from Make, also known as a "Leave Me Alone Box." I had a $5 box from the thrift store, a smaller version of the one I used for my iPad Charger. After a lot of planning in AutoCAD and even more trial and error I came up with this:
It took me a while to figure out how to put it together with the cam attached to the lid, and my daughter suggested a rod & tube setup:
The cam is connected to the lid through a bearing and a brass "bicycle fork":
When the cam spins, it lifts the lid enough for the arm to come out and flip the switch.
One thing that I did slightly different was use a 5V DPDT relay to reverse the motor instead of a DPDT switch. This allowed me to use a SPDT switch with a lower actuation force.

quote:Originally posted by Guest9052I'm not suggesting they can't repeat, just that they arean't the odds-pn favourite to do so.The NHL playoffs are a gruelling competition that only starts after an 82-game regular season that isn't much easier. If everyone can stay healthy and play to their potential, then sure, the Kings repeat because they have one of the best tems on paper (I won over $1000 total in 3 playoff pools because I thought the Kings were unbeatable after Carter got there).So, having said that, it is really hard to repeat as Stanley Cup champions. Short off-season, target-on-their-backs, whatever ckiche you ascribe...but clihches are cliches for a reason. They have a basis in fact. The Kings have a chance - probably a better chance than any of the last 10 winners - but they probably won't. Do I think they can repeat? Yes. Do I think they will? No.

Hello all!
Well, I'm finally back online after 2 weeks of living in 1995 (long story), but in my absence I decided to discontinue with my little blog. I think my work here is done. I got to write about random geeky stuff, squee over funny pictures, bake lots of goodies, and share it all with strangers on the internet. I've lived the dream.
So big thanks to all who had a wander through these pages, it's been a blast :)

Loss of appetite during lung cancer treatment
Dear OncoLink "Ask The Experts,"
What should a lung cancer patient do if they are losing too much weight? How can they overcome a loss of appetite?
Ellen Sweeney, RD, registered dietitian at the Abramson Cancer Center of the University of Pennsylvania, responds:
Many cancer patients lose weight during their treatment and sometimes after. This is partly due to the effects of the cancer itself on their body but more often due to inadequate calorie intake. Poor appetite, pain, nausea, and loss of taste for foods are common side effects of lung cancer and its treatment that decrease food intake. Before addressing food and calorie intake to correct the problem, pain and nausea need to be managed. Once nausea and pain are under control, providing the proper foods and liquids for adequate calorie intake and weight maintenance is recommended. The diet should consist of small, frequent, high calorie meals and snacks. Small portions work best with reduced appetite and the higher calorie the better.
I recommend reviewing "How to Increase Calories" in the Eating Hints For Cancer Patients booklet. This same booklet may also be available free in your cancer center. Use of added butter, oils, cream, and cheese in foods are encouraged to increase calorie intake. Liquid supplements such as Boost Plus� and Ensure Plus� two to three times daily between meals are also helpful to add extra calories and nutrients needed. If poor appetite and weight loss persist even after using these tips, an appetite medication, such as Megace�, may be appropriate and is often used with lung cancer patients. This can be discussed with the oncologist.

2013 concerts will be 10th anniversary of series
When the 10th season of the Sand in the Streets outdoor concert series takes off June 6, the Pearson Park stage will see 162 years of music making on tour by 40 musicians in the seven bands making up the 2013 summer schedule.
This summer�s series will add an �80s flavor to season the beach music stance for which Sand in the Streets has become known � with a dash of Cajun, zydeco and New Orleans jazz and funk thrown in for good measure, according to Pride of Kinston Executive Director Adrian King.
�We probably have the most diverse lineup of bands we�ve had in a long time,� said King.
Pride of Kinston, with a host of sponsors, has produced Sand in the Streets since 2004. The downtown organization sponsored a single concert in 2004 and another single show in 2005. From 2004 thru 2012, Pride has brought 51 bands to Kinston�s downtown with a number of the music groups playing multiple concerts.
Audiences for the riverside concerts have grown each year, making the series a favorite family-friendly outing for music fans from all over the region. The number of corporate sponsors for Sand in the Streets has also grown with each passing year.
Suicide Blonde, formed in 2006, will open the season on June 6. This band, which was rained out in 2012, will return to kick off the season as self-described �children of the �80s� who have united to bring back the spirit of the 1980s with its mullet hair dos, the Trans-AM, listening to AC-DC, David Bowie and the Cure.
The Suicide Blonde concert will acknowledge the 10th anniversary of Sand in the Streets with a birthday party theme.
UNC fans will especially like the June 20 concert. North Tower, founded in 1975 as an a cappella vocal quartet, traces its roots to UNC and the Old East dormitory where some of the founding members lived. They shared a common appreciation of intricate four-part vocal harmonies and quickly earned praise for their performances throughout the Triangle area. The focus on strong vocals became a hallmark of the North Tower tradition, which continues.
Independence Day will feature the Breakfast Club in its second appearance on a Sand in the Streets stage. Formed in 1993, the Breakfast Club is the longest running, most recognized �80s tribute band in the United States, creating entertainment that embodies the enigmatic, creative and buoyant spirit of the MTV generation of the 1980s.
This July 4 show will play from 6 to 9 p.m., followed by fireworks over the Neuse River. The show is to be styled �New Citizens Day,� acknowledging individuals who will receive their citizenship in the United States earlier in the day at Kinston�s historic Harmony Hall.
The concert will honor Citizenship Night.
The July 18 concert will feature the Four Knights Band, founded in 1996 with four musicians that since has expanded to six members. With a wide range of styles � including R&B, Motown, Oldies, beach music and a bright horn section � Four Knights has toured all over and has become the Pepsi band under the sponsorship of Jeff Minges and the Minges Bottling Group/Pepsi. The distinctive sounds please audiences of all varieties.
The Four Knights Band concert will be Pepsi Night, courtesy of Jeff Minges and the Minges Bottling Group/Pepsi.
For fans of the blues and Cajun music, Aug. 1 will bring the sounds of Mel Melton & the Wicked Mojos. This group will offer a program of the blues, Cajun, zydeco and New Orleans jazz and funk. The band was formed in 1990 after Melton returned to North Carolina following an extended immersion in Louisiana Cajun culture.
Melton went to work to combine both passions � music and Cajun food � founding the first edition of the Wicked Mojos and, in 2008, opening Papa Mojo�s Roadhouse, a hot Cajun restaurant. He and his three partners give lively performances featuring music with a Louisiana soul.
The Mel Melton & and the Wicked Mojos concert will be called the Lenoir Memorial Hospital/Good Health Night.
The Aug. 15 concert will feature Spare Change, which got started in 2002 as a four-piece band made up of a group of friends. Traveling throughout the southeast, they grew into one of the most popular bands in the region, especially among young music lovers, with their diverse portfolio.
With six musicians and unique instruments, from the mandolin to the violin, these musical artists bring something refreshing and exciting to their fans. The 2013 performance will mark Spare Change�s sixth concert on a Sands in the Street stage.
The Spare Change Concert will be the Red Cross Recognition Night.
In what has become honored tradition, the Band of Oz will conclude the 2013 Sand in the Streets series Aug. 22 with its particular style of music which brings fans back year after year. A group of young musicians got together in 1967 as a part-time band playing frat parties and high school proms all over the South.
The band with its beach music patina takes its music, featuring a full horn section, to more than 200 venues a year. It has been a guest on most of the beach concerts in the Carolinas, Virginia and Georgia.
In line with another tradition, the Band of Oz concert kicks off the United Way Fall campaign.
Every year since 2004, Kinston�s business leadership has stepped forward to help Pride produce the outdoor concerts, 51 in total through the 2012 season. From the first, they have provided the economic backbone making the concerts possible. With four new ones added this year, the 2013 sponsor list in large measure mirrors the past, continuing the tradition of support from the business community.

The Use of Botulinum Toxin A in Two-Stage Tissue Expander/ Implant Breast Reconstruction (Botox)

Breast reconstruction is a common procedure with over 86,000 breast reconstruction procedures performed in the United States in 2009. This is a 1.5-fold increase since 2007. Of these breast reconstructions, 65% use a tissue expander/implant technique. Although satisfactory results can be achieved with a single-stage technique, a two-stage approach is considered more reliable, allowing for precise positioning of the inframammary fold and an opportune time to perform a capsulotomy to increase the breast skin flap by releasing the soft tissue.
The placement of the tissue expander and implant under the chest muscles is thought to minimize the incidence of capsular contracture, expander exposure, and in addition, produce acceptable aesthetic results. However, discomfort is often associated with this submuscular placement of a tissue expander or implant, specifically during the expansion phase. Patients undergoing immediate reconstruction using submuscular implants have been shown to have higher analgesic requirements and to have higher pain scores post-operatively, compared to non-reconstructed patients. An uncomfortable reconstruction can lead to under-filling of the expander, a longer expansion process, abandonment of reconstruction, and a compromised quality of life. The use of Botulinum Toxin A (Botox) injections into the chest muscles at the time of surgery may help ease the discomfort that is often associated with this procedure.
The investigators propose a prospective double-blind randomized placebo-controlled trial of patients undergoing tissue expander/implant reconstruction. The information gathered from this analysis will provide a greater understanding of the effects of Botox in the setting of two-stage tissue expander/implant breast reconstruction, with the goal to improve patient satisfaction and quality of life.

- Change from Baseline in Quality of life and patient satisfaction using the Breast-Q [ Time Frame: Before 1st surgery, 2 weeks, ~6-8weeks, Before 2nd Surgery, 6 months, and 12 months post-op ]The Breast-Q© is a patient reported outcome measure (PROM) for breast surgery that was rigorously developed to accurately measure patient reported satisfaction and quality of life (QOL). (http://www.mskcc.org/mskcc/shared/Breast-Q/index.html). The BREAST-Q was developed and validated with adherence to international guidelines. This PROM is composed of six scales that address: 1) psychosocial well-being, 2) physical well-being, 3) sexual well-being, 4) satisfaction with breasts, 5) satisfaction with outcome, and 6) satisfaction with care.
- Patient-reported pain,using the BPI (Brief Pain Inventory) and Pain Diary during the expansion phase (initial to final expansion) and in the long-term period (6 and 12 months). [ Time Frame: BPI (before 1st surgery, day of surgery, 2 weeks, ~ 6 - 8 weeks, before 2nd surgery, 6 months and 12 months). After 1st surgery, pain diary is to be filled out every evening at the same time. ]
The BPI is a common patient-reported instrument used to assess clinical pain. The BPI assesses the severity of pain and the impact of pain on daily functions in patients with pain from chronic diseases or conditions or acute conditions (i.e. postoperative pain).
The question asked on the daily pain diary will be derived from the BPI: "Every evening at the same time, please rate the worst pain you've experienced in the last 24 hours when 0 represents no pain and 10 represents the most severe pain imaginable".
- Aesthetic outcome [ Time Frame: 6 months and 12 months (after 2nd surgery) ]Aesthetic results can be evaluated using different methods: patient-reported aesthetic satisfaction (Breast-Q) and aesthetic outcome from the perspective of the health professional. Standardized photographs using a three-category, five-item Breast Aesthetic Score. This scoring scheme separates the various components of the aesthetic results of the breast into different subscale thus allowing the rating to be more explicit. This score has not been validated, but has demonstrated good inter- and intra-rater reliability.

Sources tell Local 4 Joe Gentz, who was a handyman for Jane Bashara's husband Bob Bashara, may have a deal in place which could be announced Friday in court. Gentz is expected in court Friday morning for his pretrial hearing.
Complete coverage: Grosse Pointe Park murder mystery
Those close to the case say attorneys representing Gentz have been in negotiations with prosecutors and both sides have been working to make this deal happen before the end of the year.
What would the plea deal look like? It may be 2nd degree murder and a minimum of 20 years in prison for Gentz.
Gentz told police he killed Jane Bashara on Jan. 24, 2012 in her Grosse Pointe Park home. However, he also told police Bob Bashara put him up to it.

Entertaining and eating with clients is a big deal on Wall Street, and for the most part, no amount of money is too large for top notch food and top notch service.
That said: Wall Street's favorite restaurants aren't always the most expensive, or even the top rated. In a great city like NYC, you can find excellent food basically anywhere — that means huge debates on what's really good and what really matters.
And there's another element — being seen by people who really matter.
Mix all that together and you can come up with a pretty solid list of Wall Street's most beloved restaurants. Only one, however, can be crowned Wall Street's favorite.
Have your say in the survey below and we'll let you know which restaurant takes all.

The fall term Advertising Campaigns class, Mktg 443, (pictured left) at Portland State University's School of Business won top honors in the 2012 National Chevrolet Campus Promotion Competition. PSU was one of 19 programs selected by Chevrolet to participate in this invitational competition, which included other reputable schools such as University of Illinois, University of Arizona, Texas A&M and University of Iowa.
Led by Faculty Advisor Don Dickinson, the challenge for the class was to improve brand image of Chevrolet and to increase the consideration of the brand within the PSU student body. This is no easy task on an urban campus that can be resistant to large corporate brands.
The 19 students in the class were extremely focused and resourceful as they learned what it was like to work with a demanding national brand and client. The class formed a full-service advertising agency that conducted baseline and follow-up research, launched a multi-faceted guerilla ad campaign, staged a large on-campus event and then presented its results to an impressed audience of Chevrolet executives.
The theme of the campaign was "What's Your Drive?" which provided an automotive oriented promotional platform and also allowed the team to talk to fellow students about what motivates them.
For many of the students, this class was their last PSU experience. In addition to obtaining valuable real-world experience, it was exciting to leave on a high note.
Visit adbiz.sba.pdx.edu to learn more about this course. If you're a student who's interested in taking a course similiar to this, visit your advisor in the Undergraduate Programs Office.
Campaign Highlights:
One of four product engagement displays visited by hundreds of students on event day.
Before (top) and after brand clouds show how brand perception improved dramatically after the big "What's your Drive?" event. A brand cloud is a graphic way to show research results where the the more often a response is heard, the larger it appears in the cloud.
