CFP: Learning from our mistakes: Adverse event representation

Reports of adverse events that occur during clinical trials and/or induced by medical interventions help to identify issues with the safety and efficacy of medical treatment, better educate health practitioners and the general public, and ultimately allow us to learn from our mistakes to increase patient safety. In order to enable more effective sharing of such reports, this workshop will address the question of what the ontological basis for adverse events is.
The full day workshop will be held on July 26th 2011 in Buffalo, NY, USA in conjunction with the 2011 International Conference on Biomedical Ontology (http://icbo.buffalo.edu/)
Deadline for submission of workshop papers is April 10, 2011
(apologies if you receive this invitation several times)
**** Topics ****
Papers about all aspects of adverse events are welcome at the workshop; including, but not
limited to the following topics:
- Adverse events representation systems
- Current standards
- Drugs and devices safety
- Practitioners experiences
- Causality assessment
**** Call for Papers ****
In order to encourage participation, we welcome submissions in a variety of formats:
- Full length papers (maximum 2500 words not including abstract or references)
- Short papers, up to 4 pages
- Statement of Interest: A statement of interest (maximum 2 pages) can be about ideas, solutions, methods, products, research projects or implementation experience pertaining to adverse events representation.
The submission process for the workshop follows ICBO conference guidelines which can be found at http://icbo.buffalo.edu/cfp2011.html. All submissions should be PDF files formatted according to LNCS, and submitted to our Easychair installation at http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=icbo2011, in the Adverse Events Representation track. The workshop's papers will be published with the conference proceedings.

  • Canon Boo Boo - learn from my mistake!

    This is my first post and I'm typing it with my head hung low!
    I did a lot of research and eventually found the Canon HF 200 as an ideal camera for my use. I did a lot of searches to find that many people were connecting it to iMovie and also FCE.
    Only, it appears after speaking to Apple today there is a tiny little difference between the NTSC and PAL versions on the HF 200 and that's that ours over here in the UK is FORMALLY referred to (in little letters under the camera) as the HF 200 e. Notice that tiny little e? In the USA and Americas it's referred to simply as the HF 200 (no e). But GENERICALLY, in forums and in discussion, they are both referred to as the HF 200. The 'e' is really a technicality for Canon.
    So I've bought a £600 camera which I can use... but can't do anything with the footage.... having also just bought FCE. The hassle of selling it and now having to do research again to find a compatible one is annoying and stressful. Hopefully you'll be able to learn from my mistake and save yourself some money.

    what let's you think so?
    • your Mac and any software accepts both standards.
    • AppleTV accepts both standards.
    • iDVD accepts both standards, and allows to 'switch' between both standards (=creating a PAL-disk from NTSC-content and vice versa).
    • any DVDplayer (soft- or hardware) accepts both standards.
    • and most (>90%) European TVs accept NTSC-content on PAL-screens (from NTSC-sources, as videoDVDs) ..
    so, your problem is.. ?

  • Cosigning Student Loans - Learn From My Mistakes - Please Read

    I have gone through a nightmare due to a student loan that I co-signed on, and I am creating this post in the hopes that you will learn from my mistakes. Please pass this post on to anyone who you think would benefit, and hopefully save them a lot of heartache and anxiety. My post is lengthy, but please be patient and read it, it could literally save your financial life.Briefly here is my situation: I am the co-signer on a $60K Sallie Mae private student loan where the primary borrower has defaulted on me, meaning they have told me they cannot pay a dime, have no intention of changing their lifestyle to do so, and will not tell me when, if ever, they will make good on this. Meanwhile, as the guarantor of the loan, I have been subjected to the full force of SM collection agency practices, and forced to face the music while the primary person on this loan can blissfully ignore the situation as if it was not happening. After multiple weeks of heartache, anxiety and worry over my financial future, I found in the fine print that if I make 24 consecutive on-time payments, then I am off the hook. I verified this with SM and am now 6 months into paying this off. As long as nothing unexpected occurs, I am looking forward to being off the hook in 18 months, having learned an expensive but not life altering lesson, as I was originally facing. Now let me go into some lessons, please pass these on to anyone you think would benefit - let's make this post the most widely read one on FICO forums, this is so important. And now my hard lessons learned:Lesson #1: DO NOT COSIGN A STUDENT LOAN: especially private student loans which carry higher interest rates. When you cosign a loan, you are the guarantor: you are putting your good credit profile on the line and telling the loan agency that you are responsible if anything ever happens with the primary borrower and they are unable to pay. All the obligations are on your shoulders, in fact, in many ways you are more responsible than the primary borrower, and this is how the loan and collection agencies will treat you. If you think: that's just the fine print, that will never happen, think again. It happens all the time, are you willing and able to take on this burden if you have to? Possibilities become reality, and this is a reality you do not want to be a part of, trust me on this. If you want to help someone, find other ways to do it outside of the system. Loan them the money as an individual, or pay their rent or expenses, that way, if problems arise, you don't have to get credit agencies, loan agencies, and collections agencies involved. If you are a parent and want to help your child, see Lesson #2.Lesson #2: LOAN ONLY WHAT YOU CAN LOSE: Every rule has exceptions, so the exception to Lesson #1 is this: only cosign on a loan if you are absolutely willing and able to pay off the full loan obligation. When you cosign you are lending your good name and credit profile, and you are effectively loaning money that you will have to pay back if the primary borrower defaults. In other words, never loan more than you are willing to lose, and therefore never cosign for more than you are willing to lose. And be willing to accept that the fact that your relationship with the primary borrower may be permanently damaged if you are forced to step in and cover their obligations.Lesson #3: LOANS GROW: I cannot emphasize this point enough, it really burned me: I did not co-sign a loan for 60K, I co-signed for 45K, and without my knowledge the primary borrower capitalized the interest during the first 18 months of the loan, which they were allowed to do, but it caused the loan to grow by 33%. So when it came time to guarantee the loan, I was on the hook for 60K, which I had never originally agreed to.Lesson #4: SALLIE MAE DOES NOT CARE: And why should they? This is business. As co-signer, you are the guarantor of the loan, you have to make good on the obligation when the primary borrower defaults. In fact, as guarantor, the loan and collection agencies will go after you harder than the primary borrower. Do you have a good credit and collateral, such as a house? Well this binds your obligation even more tightly. When loan and collections agencies see that you have the wherewithal to pay, they will not let you off the hook. And they don't care if paying off their loan puts you on the street. This is business and you have to pay up. Understand this black and white reality before you co-sign a loan. Lesson #5: DON’T DELAY PAYMENTS: Forbearance and deferments are often mentioned as options for helping out on loan obligations, but do not fall into this trap: they make a bad loan situation worse, they don't help. Deferment does not prevent interest from accumulating: you'll just have a bigger loan to pay when the deferment ends. Student loans typically give you a deferment grace period, usually 6 months, before you have to start paying back the loan. Most of us have to use this initial grace period, but please avoid it if you can, it just makes your loan grow larger. Forbearance is another method of delay, but it requires you to make the loan current before the loan agency can talk to you. In other words, you have to be paid up on what you currently owe before the loan agency will talk to you about forbearance. Think about this Catch-22: you can't pay your current loan obligations, so you ask the loan agency for help. The loan agency won't talk to you until you make the loan current. Never use deferment or forbearance, they make your bad situation worse. Lesson #6: NO LEGAL RECOURSE: Student loan debt is not dischargeable in bankruptcy court proceedings, it is debt that you will carry for life until it is paid off, regardless of what happens to you. And don't assume that the loan agency will only take legal action against the primary borrower in a default situation: they will also take legal action against you. Remember, you are equally responsible, you will be held legally accountable. And don't think that you can sue the primary borrower. You can only sue them if you have a separate promissory note with them, signed and notarized, that they have defaulted on. And even if you do, it is expensive and time-consuming to sue someone, especially if they have moved out-of-state, and practically impossible if they have moved out-of-country. You could probably never come out ahead, unless the amount owed was so large as to make it worth it. Unless you are wealthy, or a big organization, do not rely on your option to take legal action in the future, it's often just not practical. Lesson #7: WOULD I DO BUSINESS WITH THIS PERSON?: When you co-sign for a family member, there is a certain level of built in trust in the relationship, but when you co-sign for a friend, or girlfriend, or boyfriend, you are putting your faith in the future: faith that they will be around in the future and that they will always have your best interests at heart. Please wake up. People take advantage of other people all the time. Especially when it comes to money, people get scared and choose to hide under a rock, disappear, ignore the problem as if it does not exist. If you are the co-signer, you are the guarantor. If the primary borrower understands this, then they can choose to disappear and leave you holding the bag. Do not assume that the person who cares for you now will always care what happens to you. Business is business, personal is personal. When you are asked to co-sign for a loved one, ask yourself first: do I want to go into business with this person? How do they resolve conflict? If they get into trouble one day will they work with me? Or will they disappear on me? Do they have a conscience, and will they care how this affects me? Or will they see an opportunity to be off the hook? Ask yourself these hard questions. And don’t assume that they will think as responsibly as you. Don’t assume that they care what happens to their credit score, or what this means for the future. Treat the primary borrower as a person you are doing business with, and therefore someone who you need to rely on when times get tough. Chances are, you are the more responsible person here, so ask yourself, can I really afford to go into business with this person?Lesson #8: PROTECT YOURSELF: If your credit score gets damaged over a bad loan, your total financial life will be affected for a long time. It doesn't matter how good your intentions are, it doesn't matter why you got into a financial bind, it doesn't matter that your family member was sick, or that you were going through a hard time, or that you are low on money because you gave it all to charity. The current system of credit scoring requires you to keep your total financial profile in a healthy state at all times. If you are delinquent on payments, or worse, default on loan obligations, then your credit will suffer and you will be affected for a long time. You will be unable to qualify for loans, you will be unable to get good interest loans. Think about the effect this will have on your family in the future: not being able to afford a house for them because you can't get a loan, because you made a good faith error several years before. That's the reality you have to avoid, so protect yourself at all times.Lesson #9: AND FINALLY: Some people reading this will feel that I am missing the point: that of course loans carry obligations, and of course there are consequences if loan payments are missed. For the record, I relied on Sallie Mae loans to get me through college and grad school. I made all my payments on time, I paid my loans off, I even used the available 6 month deferment. But this only worked because I was responsible, because I had a plan, because I understood my monthly and total financial obligations at all times, and never made a life decision that would compromise my ability to pay. Cold reality: many people in this world are not responsible, they don't think through the consequences of their decisions, they are unable or unwilling to look at the hard facts. When you co-sign with one of these individuals, as I did, you are tethering your good name and your financial future to them. If they fail in their responsibility, they will take you down with them. Do not let this happen, protect yourself, you have worked too hard in your life to let an irresponsible person take you down. I hope you have found this posting useful. Please pass it on so that everyone can learn from my mistakes and hard-earned lessons.

    My heart goes out to you. My stomach was in knots for you just reading about your situation. Thanks for the lessons learned. I co-signed a private education loan with my ex husband. I wish I had someone like you back then to sit me down and make me really think. Unfortunately, I was young and naive and never thought twice about co-signing. Even though the original loan amount was small by most standards (less than $8000), here it is 10 years later and that stinking loan is still attached to my credit rating. It's barely halfway paid off with another 10 years to go. The ex is a bit of a deadbeat so after some late payments a few years ago, he has since only made the minimum payments. At this rate, I will be ready to retire when that stupid thing is paid and off my reports. I am very conscientious about my own financial health and have less than $1000 on a credit card, a little of my own student loans, and a reasonable mortgage. BUT because I am forever listed as co-signer of this silly loan, it actually drags down my FICO rating. I could suck it up and pay off the whole balance myself in a few months time....which causes me to feel sick to my stomach. Its my only option besides watching this thing languish for 10 more years.

  • Learn from my mistake!

    iBook G4 Mac OS X (10.4.6)
    In a prior post I lamented about not finding my photo files in my Maxtor External Hard Drive after my iBook crashed. The end result was that most of my photos came back to iPhoto in only thumbnail format. The "film roll" names existed without the contents. The strange thing was that certain rolls were not affected...
    Due to a very helpful man at the Apple Store Genius Bar I finally know the cause of my trouble.
    SO DON'T DO THIS:
    Partway through my photo library I got in the habit of naming my rolls (when importing pictures off my digital camera) in this format: 4/23/06 Ski Mt Baker
    I found out that using the forward slash is a big no-no. Maybe this is obvious to some but not to me!!
    Sure enough, when I reviewed which files were successfully backed up on my external hard drive and which were not, it was directly related to this naming structure. So I have since stopped using the forward slash in any dates.
    There are other characters you need to avoid using as well.
    iBook G4 Mac OS X (10.4.6)
    iBook G4   Mac OS X (10.4.6)  

    Wickstad:
    How is the Maxor Drive formatted. I use the forward slash all the time for naming rolls and haven't had any problem with copying or backing up those folders or files. I also name the files that way.
    If the Maxor isn't formatted for Mac OS X Extended then that may be the cause.

    My wife bought an iPad Air and synced contact from our PC (Outlook), now all our contacts in Outlook have gone and we have to go to iCloud to get them, and even then they are a bit jumbled. How do I get my data back onto my PC?

    If you can see the iCloud contacts in Outlook, you can copy them back to your PC by selecting all the contacts (click one, then press Control-A), then drag and drop the selected contacts to Contacts under My Contacts on the left sidebar of Outlook.
    If you want to copy your calendar back to Outlook, select your iCloud calendar on the left sidebar of Outlook, switch to the list view (select View from the ribbon, then click Change View>List), select your events (click on a single event, then press Control-A), then control drag and drop them to Calendar under My Calendars on the left sidebar.
    Then you can sign out of iCloud on the iCloud control panel and your local copies will still be there.  If you want to add your iCloud email account back to iCloud, you can do this with these settings: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4864.

  • I'm a new java learner from china,how should I start my journey?

    I have never learned java before,how should I start it? Dose it hard to learn?
    At the beginning,which part of it should I learn?
    Thank you !

    Advice:
    1. Learn the basics with simple command line applications first. Don't worry about complicated topics like Swing, databases, Web applications, etc. for at six months
    2. After you learn how to write, compile & run programs with just a text editor & Java compiler, download & learn to use an Integrated Development Environment, such as Eclipse. Especially, learn how to use the debugger that comes with the IDE.
    3. Experiment with lots of small programs & examples. Learn by doing (and by making mistakes).
    4 Find others in your community who use Java & learn from them.

  • CRS, IOS-XR: local IGP route not installed in BGP table when learned from RR

    Hello,
    We use CRS routers in our IGP/BGP network core, some of which are acting as BGP originators and reflectors (RRs) for IPv4 unicast. We also use CRS routers as Internet PEs. The problem we have is between those PEs and the core routers.
    Premise: each Internet PE is terminating customer cisrcuits and injects those downstream routes in IGP (via redistributing static, or just learned via IGP from a downstream router). The core (P) routers then learn those routes from the PE via the IGP. Two of the P-routers act as BGP originators and install the necessary routes in BGP using the network statement. These routes are mostly supernets (i.e. summarized), but some coincide with IGP routes, as learned from the PEs. The P-routers acting as RRs then reflect all iBGP routes to all IPv4 unicast BGP speakers in the network, including the Internet PEs (we also have BGP peers on those PEs, which is why this is necessary).
    Problem: if a specific downstream route, learned on an Internet PE via IGP (i.e. from downstream), is then received by that PE from an RR via iBGP (i.e. from upstream), the route is not installed in the BGP table (the output of the show bgp x.x.x.x/xx command is: Network not in table)
    Question: does anyone know why this is happening? This is concictent on all of our CRS PEs. As far as I am aware there is no BGP rule that would explain this behavior. We don't expect the PE to prefer the iBGP route over the IGP route, but that should not prevent it from learning it and installing it in the BGP table... The only discrepancy I could think of is that the IGP route has a next-hop pointing downstream, whereas the the same route, learned over iBGP has a next-hop pointing upstream. Then again,this shouldn't prevent the route to appear in the BGP table....
    Your help would be appreciated!
    Thanks!

    Hi !
    If I am understandung you correctly then Split Horizon is the keyword
    Because if the route is learned from downstream BGP drops any same path information learned from upstream
    SPLIT-HORIZON only applies to distance-vector routing protocols.  In case of BGP,  it simply means that a prefix learned via a peer is not advertised back  to that peer.
    Split horizon will simply block out routes with the same neighbor as the next-hop for the router
    regards

  • Lenovo W530/W540 Getting Destination host Unreachable from our Firewall

    Hey Everyone!
    I'm having some bizarre issues with all of my Lenovo W530/W540's.  I'm not sure when the issue started, the first time it was reported to me was around March, and it has been persistant since the issue was discovered.  The issue is that, quite frequently, our Lenovo W530/W540's will get Destiantion Host Unreachable if I run a continuous ping (ping -t ...) to anything outside our firewall.
    I have run a ping to things inside our firewall (other computers/servers, etc.) and they will return good ping until the cows come home.
    However, if I try to ping anything outside our firewall (google.com, google DNS 8.8.8.8, yahoo.com, etc.) about every 30 seconds (every 30-35 returns) it starts returning Destitnation Host Unreachable from our Firewall.  This will last for around 10-25 returns, and then traffic goes back to normal.
    We are a majority Apple Shop, and when I attempt to ping from any Apple on the network, it get fine returns consistently.  I also tried pinging from the few non-Lenovo Windows Machines we have as well (my personal machine which is self-built Windows rig, a couple of windows test machines, and a Windows 2008 Server we have) and they also have consistently good returns as well.
    It is ONLY the Lenovo's that have this problem.  To compound things, they have no issue when they are connected to a different network other than the company network.  This ONLY happens when they try to interact with traffic going THROUGH our Firewall on our company network.  It happens regardless of whether they hardwired or wireless.  Also, during the Destination Host Unreachable moments, Windows does not detect a disruption, it keeps registering good connection.  I do not know how often Windows checks for connection, but these Destination Host Unreachable moments are so quick, I'm fairly certain that Windows can't even detect them.
    Our Firewall is a Linux CentOS server that is running Shorewall Firewall Software.  The Destination Host Unreachable notice is coming from our Firewall directly, not from our ISP, so for some reason, the Lenovo is having a problem talking to our FW.
    We currently only have 3 of these machines in circulation, but its having a pretty big impact on those with the machines, as going to a website is even a chore, as they often get "Page Not Found"  and other errors when they try to load a website.
    I'm a bit stumped, I've never seen a machine act this way where it only has problems on a particular network; usually its a global issue it has with everything.  Any and all help would be appreciated.
    Thanks!
    -Chris

    DNS is set to be automatic, though I did try setting  a permenent DNS server in the IPv4 settings to our local DNS server AND Google DNS, and the issue still occurred.
    The 2 Conflicting firewalls could be it, so I tested that.  I logged into the Local Administrator account on the machine so I could temporarily disable the firewall.  I disabled it, pinged out, and I still get Destination host unreachable, though weirdly, it seems to happen less than when on the other account (only about every 50-60 pings do I get Destination host Unreachable).

    I will share with you what I have done to manage this with my family.  While the solution isn't without flawes, it seems to do the trick.  First, you need to have one person who is managing the synching of everyone's devices.  In my family, I have three iphones, about to be four, and five ipads.  We all synch to the same apple ID to allow one another to take seemless advantage of our Itunes, which is on our Imac.  To synch individual music or video interests, we simply select which playlists we want and manually synch that way.  A couple of us use imatch and the cloud to make the entire library accessable as well.  With respect to the imessage, mail, contacts, etc. we each have a gmail account for our individual emails, contacts etc.  So for instance, my forth grade daughter has a gmail account that we choose to synch her contacts, calendar, etc to and then that is also the account where she receives her imessages from on her ipad and itouch. My son, who has an iphone and ipad, does the same thing, but under settings, he goes to imessage and checks his phone number and his email as his preferred way to receive imessages and texts.  My wife and I do the same thing.  To avoid having everyone see one anothers contracts etc, we only synch contacts from our individual email accounts.  Here is the downfall to this:  When you update your phone or add a new device, apple always wants to reset everyone's facetime and imessage settings and then low and behold we are all receiving imessages from one another's friends etc.  To work around this, I simply take each of their devices and go to their imessage settings and only check the email and phone numbers relative to their devices.  I dont' know is this is the best solution, but it seems to work for us.
