We hope you will enjoy both the scientific program and host city over the next few days. This year’s meeting focuses on the theme “Integrating HRQOL in Health Care Policy, Research, and Practice.” We will explore the theme through plenary sessions that will address the use of patient- reported outcomes for adverse symptom reporting in clinical trials, for cross-national comparisons of population health, and for evaluating the quality of health care delivery. To complement the plenary presentations, we selected a high-ranking abstract related to the plenary topic for presentation at the conclusion of each plenary session. Also new this year are “Poster Walking Tours,” featuring ISOQOL faculty who will highlight selected posters during each poster meet-the-author session. Of course, the majority of the program is devoted to presentations of your own work during the many symposia, oral, and poster presentations. We hope your participation in these activities will benefit your own research and practice. We also invite you to enjoy the wonderful food, sights, and sounds that New Orleans has to offer. We look forward to welcoming you in person at the opening reception Wednesday night. The conference closing dinner on Halloween promises to be a festive (and just a little spooky) evening at the Musee Conti Wax Museum. For your free time, we are providing a Restaurant Dining Guide put together by locals as well as guidebooks and suggestions for sightseeing. As many of you are aware, some areas of New Orleans are still recovering from Hurricane Katrina, and ISOQOL wanted to do something to help our host city. Thus, this year’s conference bag is a backpack, which you can donate at the end of the meeting for use by school-aged children in need. We call it “ISOQOL Gives Back(packs),” and we hope you’ll participate. Thank you for joining us for this year’s annual meeting in New Orleans. At the end of the meeting, we hope you’ll leave with your head brimming with research ideas, your ears ringing with music, and your waistline not that much larger than when you arrived! “This conference is supported by Award Number R13CA142047 from the National Cancer Institute.

We are inspired by the bravery of our soldiers at Normandy and moved by the words of John McCrae’s "In Flanders Fields." We are amazed at the vision of Louis-Joseph Papineau and Sir Wilfrid Laurier. We are enchanted by the paintings of Emily Carr and the writings of Lucy Maud Montgomery. We look back in awe at the wisdom of Sir John A. Macdonald and Sir George-Étienne Cartier. We are moved to tears of joy by the humour of Stephen Leacock and tears of gratitude for the courage of Tecumseh. We hold in high regard the determination of Emily Murphy and Rev. Josiah Henson to overcome obstacles which stood in the way of their dreams. We give thanks for the work of the Victorian Order of Nurses and those who organ- ized the Underground Railroad. We think of those who suffered and died at Grosse Île in the dream of reaching a new home.

  • Wreck of the St. Peter (1874) – National Register of Historic Places
    Proposal to the National Oceanic & Atmospheric Administration’s Marine Sanctuary Program 2017 Wreck of the St. Peter (1874) – National Register of Historic Places 0 Section I – Basics Nomination Title: The Great Lake Ontario National Marine Sanctuary Nominator Names(s) & Affiliations(s): Andrew Cuomo, Governor of New York; Kevin Gardner, Chairman of the Oswego County Legislature; Scott Gray, Chairman of the Jefferson County Legislature; Keith Batman, Chairman of the Cayuga County Legislature; Steve LeRoy, Chairman of the Wayne County Board of Supervisors; and William Barlow, Mayor of the City of Oswego. Point of Contact: Philip Church, Oswego County Administrator, Chairman of Great Lake Ontario National Marine Sanctuary Nomination Task Force; 46 East Bridge Street, Oswego 13126; phone 315-349-8235, fax 315-349-8237, e-mail [email protected] Section II – Introduction Narrative Description: The proposed Great Lake Ontario National Marine Sanctuary includes unique and significant submerged cultural resources within a corridor that is one of the most historically significant regions in the Great Lakes and the North American continent. Located in the southeastern and eastern quadrant of Lake Ontario, this area and its tributaries provided food and transportation trade routes for indigenous peoples and early European explorers, such as Samuel de Champlain. During the colonial period, it was a strategic theater of conflict among European powers and the young American republic. Military actions involving naval and land forces occurred at Sodus, Oswego, Big Sandy Creek, and Sackets Harbor during the French and Indian War, Revolutionary War and the War of 1812. These actions involved historic figures such as the Marquis de Montcalm, Sir William Johnson, Commodore Isaac Chauncey and Sir James Yeo.
