Advertising in The Town Crier makes good business sense ... how else will everyone in Milford know your name? Milford Regional Earns an ‘A’ for Patient Safety An independent hospital watchdog group has awarded Milford Regional Medical Center the highest grade in an elite national ratings program and has recognized the hospital for its strong commitment to patient safety. Milford Regional has earned a Hospital Safety Score of A from The Leapfrog Group, which grades hospitals on errors, injuries, accidents, and infections. The Hospital Safety Score is the gold standard rating for patient safety, compiled under the guidance of the nation’s leading patient safety experts and administered by The Leapfrog Group. More than 2,500 U.S. general hospitals were assigned scores in October 2015, with only 773 hospitals receiving an A grade. The first and only hospital safety rating to be peer-reviewed in the Journal of Patient Safety, the Hospital Safety Score is free to the public and designed to give consumers information they can use to protect themselves and their families when facing a hospital stay. “Milford Regional’s A grade is a powerful reminder of its commitment to putting patient safety above all else, and we are pleased to recognize the persistent efforts of your clinicians and staff to protect your patients,” said Leah Binder, president and CEO of The Leapfrog Group. “Our families, neighbors, colleagues and friends deserve a hospital that will pull out all the stops to keep them safe, and we urge Milford Regional and all other A hospitals to preserve and renew your commitment to safety year after year.” To see Milford Regional’s full score, and to access consumer-friendly tips for patients and loved ones visiting the hospital, visit www.hospitalsafetyscore.org or follow The Hospital Safety Score on Twitter or Facebook.

  • Visual Grounded Analysis: Developing and Testing a Method for Preliminary Visual Research
    Visual Grounded Analysis: Developing and testing a method for Preliminary Visual Research Lisa Cerutti PhD A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) Sir John Cass Faculty of Art, Architecture and Design London Metropolitan University i June 2017 v II ABSTRACT Approaching a new design project by performing preliminary visual research is a common practice in educational and studio settings, particularly in Jewellery and Fashion Design. Collecting images around a given subject or theme — for better understanding its visual traits, or for future reference — could be seen as the counterpart, in visual terms, of a literature search. However, ‘visual research’ is an expression often used rather vaguely for indicating a spectrum of unstructured methodological approaches, whose procedures and underlying assumptions tend to remain unexplained, undisclosed or unquestioned in everyday studio practice. When creative practice becomes an integral part of academic research, though, there is an increased need for rigor and explicitness regarding every aspect about it, including all the work preliminary to it. This research aims to develop and test a systematic method for conducting and documenting visual research in the preliminary stages of the design process, contributing to new knowledge in the form of a new visual method, also applicable as a design tool. A reflection on the vagueness and implicitness of the Intuitive Approach (IA) to visual research adopted in the initial stage of this PhD motivated the search for an alternative method that could make transparent and rigorous the taken-for-granted, subjective assumptions behind the research initially conducted.

  • The ELO Story
    The ELO Story Jeff Lynne was born in industrial Birmingham, England, on December 30, 1947. He grew up in the then- new Shard End City Council housing estate, a high-density residential development built on the eastern edge of the city right after the Second World War, with his parents Philip and Nancy.1 He had a brother and two sisters.2 Lynne’s grandparents in his father’s side were vaudevillian performers.3 More than thirty years later, Lynne would pay tribute to his birthplace in the ELO song “All Over the World,” which mentions Shard End alongside other cities like London, Paris, Amsterdam, Rio de Janiero, and Tokyo. Lynne was a Brummie, a nickname for those blessed with the notoriously thick local Birmingham accent.4 Brummie is shorthand for Brummagem, the popular West Midlands way of pronouncing Birmingham.5 Brummie also has an unfortunate alternative dictionary definition: “counterfeit, cheap, and showy.”6 The accent, which not everyone in the city shares, has even been described as representing the least intelligent dialect in the British Isles.7 Lynne grew up listening to Del Shannon, Roy Orbison,8 Chuck Berry, and The Shadows records.9 His parents did not always approve. About Roy Orbison’s “Only the Lonely” playing on the radio, Jeff said “[t]hey were complaining that it was too sexy, or something, but that voice just made the hairs go up on my neck.”10 At age thirteen, Lynne attended a concert by Del Shannon at Birmingham Town Hall, and from that point on dedicated his life to music.11 He noticed immediately that live performances

  • Chris Aguilar-Garcia
    Conference Speakers and Abstracts Chris Aguilar-Garcia Independent Scholar, USA Chris Aguilar-Garcia worships in the name of Madonna, Prince, and the Holy Spirit (Wendy and Lisa). He fell into fandom upon purchasing Prince's “1999” in 1982 and realised a lifelong dream when hired as a video editor at Paisley Park in 2001. Currently completing a BA at Antioch University-Los Angeles in Liberal Studies and Queer Studies, Chris is a Queer, male-bodied person who also worked as a film producer assistant, Program Manager at an LGBTQ scholarship organization, and currently in a public library. He counts sharing a spin class with Her Madgesty as a religious experience and life high point. New Power, Sexuality and Emancipation: The revolutionary queerness of Prince through a Foucauldian lens. From arriving on the 1980’s music scene in bikini briefs, eyeliner and high heels, singing songs about incest and masturbation, to a fight for emancipation from recording industry contracts, Prince consistently held the power dynamics of sexuality and domination as key to liberation from the binds of what French philosopher and social theorist Michel Foucault termed ‘government of individualization’. Prince demonstrated his full-throttled approach to creating art not only as objects in the form of music, motion pictures, and videos, but as a mindful daily practice of living art and resistance. Prince’s vibrant life force enlivened Foucault’s belief that, “we should not have to refer the creative activity of somebody to the kind of relation he has to himself, but should relate the kind of relation one has to oneself to a creative activity.” For Prince, power also derived from his refusal to conform -- demanding to produce his debut album, creating side projects as additional creative outlets, changing his name to a symbol, and creating a pioneering web- distribution platform.
