They initially planned to create a learning and recreation center within the department. The medical staff of the department, however, felt that a more crucial need would be an isolation area to separate the patients suffering from leukemia from the other patients to prevent them from acquiring hospital infection brought about by the prevailing situation. The section on Pediatric Hematology and Oncology caters to about 350 new patients annually Shown seated at the presidential table are officers of UP-PGH from ( L-R) Dr. Juliet Sio-Aguilar - PGH Pediatric Chair, Dr. Michael Tee - UP Vice-Chancellor for Planning and Development , Dr. Greg Alvior (partly hidden) - of which about sixty percent (60%) PGHMFI Chairman, Ms. Rolene Strauss- Miss World 2014 , Dr. Jose Gonzales- PGH Director, are afflicted with cancer.

Improvement of this condition was seen as imperative and thus, the creation of a dedicated isolation ward for these children with cancer and hematologic diseases was initiated. Through a generous donor, the Sta. Elena Construction and Development Corporation headed by its CEO and President Ms. Alice Eduardo and with the participation of Miss World Ltd. and the PGH Medical Foundation, the project - Hematology - Oncology Isolation Ward has come to reality. The inauguration of the facility was held last February 18, 2015.

  • Strictly Embargoed Until 19H00 Tuesday 23 February Media
    Strictly embargoed until 19h00 Tuesday 23 February Media release ENHLE IS THE NEW CROWN FOR THE MISS SOUTH AFRICA PAGEANT ________________________________________ Johannesburg, February 23: When Miss South Africa 2016 is announced at Carnival City on March 19 she will be crowned with a brand new glittering masterpiece worthy of her prestigious title. Sun International, in collaboration with Cell C, has unveiled a magnificent crown named Enhle, especially created for the dazzling occasion by Jack Friedman Jewellers. The name, which means "beautiful one" in isiZulu, was chosen through a social media competition which attracted hundreds of entries. A key feature of the crown, which is made of silver, is the inclusion of an infinity sign to symbolise the enormity and ongoing nature of Miss South Africa’s role, not only during her year of reign but into the future. The crown’s three largest stones are sugilite (also called luvulite and sold as the stone of love) which are often associated with royalty thanks to their purple colour. These were mined near Hotazel in the Northern Cape. Other stones used in the crown are amethyst and white quartz crystals. Says Howard Friedman, designer of the crown and owner of Jack Friedman Jewellers: “We chose the materials used in Enhle to be symbolic of Miss South Africa’s reign. Sugilite is believed to have protective and healing properties. We hope that it will keep her safe during her reign as well as help her unite our nation. Amethyst is a stone that works in the emotional, physical and spiritual planes to provide calm, balance, patience and peace.” Says Claudia Henkel, PR Manager: Sun International: “The crown is a real show- stopper and worthy of Miss South Africa.

Abstract When Netflix launched in April 1998, Internet video was in its infancy. Eighteen years later, Netflix has developed into the first truly global Internet TV network. Many books have been written about the five broadcast networks – NBC, CBS, ABC, Fox, and the CW – and many about the major cable networks – HBO, CNN, MTV, Nickelodeon, just to name a few – and this is the fitting time to undertake a detailed analysis of how Netflix, as the preeminent Internet TV networks, has come to be. This book, then, combines historical, industrial, and textual analysis to investigate, contextualize, and historicize Netflix's development as an Internet TV network. The book is split into four chapters. The first explores the ways in which Netflix's development during its early years a DVD-by-mail company – 1998-2007, a period I am calling "Netflix as Rental Company" – lay the foundations for the company's future iterations and successes. During this period, Netflix adapted DVD distribution to the Internet, revolutionizing the way viewers receive, watch, and choose content, and built a brand reputation on consumer-centric innovation.

Ante esta situación decidí re trabajar cada una de las notas y organizarlas a manera de un libro en línea que rescate todos esos comentarios y que los interesados lo puedan bajar de 2 la red, imprimir, coleccionar o lo que ustedes decidan. Esta colección que publicaré cuatrimestralmente se denomina: History of Beauty. Comentarios, anécdotas y relatos sobre los concursos de belleza. Es por esto que con mucho gusto les presento el primer tomo de este esfuerzo, el cual comprende las notas publicadas desde la aparición de mi blog el 9 de septiembre de 2015 y comprende hasta la última aportación subida en diciembre del mismo año. Esta publicación incluye las 185 fotografía empleadas en las diversas notas que escribí durante el último cuatrimestre del año 2015 y que en algunos casos, son fotografías que solicitaron subiera y yo aproveché para hacer un breve artículo. Espero que con la lectura de este tomo, los jóvenes aficionados a los concursos de belleza puedan encontrar los orígenes de nuestra pasión y los que ya son grandes conocedores del tema, logren revivir la emoción que nos siguen causando los certámenes que, al menos a mí, se han convertido en parte de mi vida y han convivido conmigo por más de 50 años.
