  • Annual Report
    2 0 0 9 YEAR IN REVIEW GLOBUS RELIEF A word from our President Dear Friends, Over the past thirteen years, Globus Relief has flourished into an internationally recognized humanitarian medical resource organization providing aid to hundreds of thousands of people around the world. Our work has been successful because of relationships that have been established on a local, national and international basis with Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs), local partner charities, corporations, hospitals and governments working to provide access to improved healthcare in over 100 countries throughout the developing world and here at home. Together we have distributed medical equipment and supplies to over 600 partner charities working with healthcare institutions and missions around the world. Globus Relief values resources, accountability, quality, efficiency and credibility with our partners and those we serve and has an aversion to waste. These values have prevented millions of pounds of useable surplus from ending up in landfills and salvage facilities across the United States. This has strengthened our position with many of our long-term partners and gives us the ability to engage in new collaboratives that will be instrumental in adhering to our values as well as the continued success of the vision, mission and operations of Globus Relief. To every stake holder in this organization, our cash donors, product donors, charity partners, corporate partners, volunteers and friends who have put their trust and strength in this very special work, we thank you for your continuing support of our humanitarian efforts in making a difference in the lives of underserved populations. Sincerely, Ash Robinson President, Globus Relief 2 Vision, Mission and Values Vision: We will continually work to improve healthcare.

  • To Download the Cuba House Packet in Its Entirety Click Here
    Dear Colleague: As you begin the important work of the 111th Congress, we write to provide you with information about U.S.-Cuba policy and to offer our resources and our best advice as Congress debates the policy and considers legislation in the year ahead. U.S.-Cuba relations have been at a standstill for many years, but momentum for change is developing. President Obama has pledged to remove travel restrictions on Cuban-Americans, and Secretary of State Clinton told the Senate Foreign Relations Committee during her nomination hearing that the Obama Administration will conduct a review of Cuba policy. Important groups that cut across the political spectrum -- including Cuban-Americans, the U.S. business community, leading religious denominations, advocates for human rights, foreign policy specialists and others – all support significant changes in the policy. Public opinion research conducted in 2008 has also documented a growing majority for changing U.S. policy toward Cuba in the Cuban-American community itself. According to a pre-election poll conducted by Florida International University, the majority of Cuban Americans support unrestricted travel and direct bilateral talks between the two countries. Internationally, pressures to change our Cuba policy are growing. In this hemisphere, all of Latin America’s elected leaders, most notably Brazil’s president Luiz Inácio “Lula” da Silva and Mexico’s president Felipe Calderon, have urged the United States to change its Cuba policy. In Cuba itself, processes of change are underway. Fidel Castro is ailing. His successor and Cuba’s current president, Raul Castro, has begun some modest economic reforms, and has called for direct negotiations with the Obama administration.

In the United States, Hurricane Katrina’s devastation of the Gulf Coast in 2005 spurred a renewed interest in improving U.S disaster management practices. As such, government entities— from the White House and U.S. Senate to state and local emergency preparedness agencies have been considering how to address the deficiencies in the U.S. system exposed by the Katrina experience. Most of this inquiry has drawn upon the United States’ experience with disasters and the traditional United States principles for disaster management, including preparedness, response and recovery. This study looks to contribute to this inquiry by tapping into the rich body of disaster-related experiences from the broader international community.

Scripps School of Journalism and the College of Communication by _________________________________________ Patrick Washburn Professor of Journalism _________________________________________ Greg Shepherd Interim Dean, College of Communication iv Acknowledgments Were it not for the guidance, encouragement, and good cheer of my advisor and thesis committee chair, Patrick Washburn, this thesis would not exist. Many thanks also to Joe Bernt, who like Pat took interest in the Scanlan’s project from the very beginning, and pointed me in interesting and fruitful directions; and Bill Reader, who provided good advice about where to take this project—and my life—after completing my degree. I must thank Tom Hodson; without his efforts on my behalf, I surely would have left Scripps for another program. I would also like to thank my friends and colleagues Andrew Huebner, Andy Smith, and Betsy Vereckey for taking interest in the project, editing the manuscript at various stages, and sharing ideas. Finally, a very special thank you to my parents.

  • Chapter 3 Videoconferencing in Medicine
    Chapter 3 Videoconferencing in Medicine One of the most widely used telemedicine tools is videoconferencing allowing interactive real-time two- or multiway information exchange. Modern videoconferences are based on hardware and software solutions as well as special interface protocols (Н.32х, SIP, etc.). Development of such technology resulted from adaptation of modern telecommunication means for medical purposes. Television expanded the range of telemedicine tools and resulted in the formation of a new trend – medical videoconferencing. As many other technologies, television was not an exclusive invention of one person or a group of people. Many scientists all over the world (Boris Rozing, Willoughby Smith, Boris Grabovskiy, I. Belyanskiy, Philo T. Farnsworth, Manfred von Ardenne, Herbert E. Ives, etc.) had been gradually developing more and more efficient means of audio and video information Fig. 3.1. Semyon Katayev communication. However, two specialists, Semyon Katayev (Russia, USSR) and Vladimir Zvorykin (Russia, USA) (Fig.3.1-3.2), are globally recognized. In 1931, within an interval of one and a half month between, the USSR and the USA, respectively, both scientists patented an electronic television technology that became the main one for decades (Vladzimirskiy A., 2008). It should be pointed out, that it was professor Zvorykin that played an important role in the development of medical videoconferences. He was not only an inventor but an active promoter of television, cooperating with American doctors and medical associations on the issues of introducing television technologies in healthcare. In March 1959, he became one of the co-founders of the first non-governmental organization in the area of telemedicine, Health Sciences Communications Association Fig.
