Various circumstances that commonly occur in clinical practice are presented as scenarios and the factors influencing treatment considerations are highlighted in this report. In February 1994, the results of Pediatric AIDS Clinical Trials Group (PACTG) Protocol 076 documented that ZDV chemoprophylaxis could reduce perinatal HIV-1 transmission by nearly 70%. Epidemiologic data have since confirmed the efficacy of ZDV for reduction of perinatal transmission and have extended this efficacy to children of women with advanced disease, low CD4+ T-lymphocyte counts, and prior ZDV therapy. Additionally, substantial advances have been made in the understanding of the pathogenesis of HIV-1 infection and in the treatment and monitoring of HIV-1 disease. These advances

  • Orlando Ballet Hires Turnaround Expert Michael Kaiser
    January 20, 2016 Orlando Ballet hires turnaround expert Michael Kaiser By MATTHEW J. PALM Dogged by financial struggles and a string of short-term executive directors, Orlando Ballet has hired a top name in arts leadership to shore up the organization. Michael M. Kaiser, who spent 15 years as president of the Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts in Washington, D.C., began consulting with the ballet this month. He left the center in August and “Giselle” dress rehearsal: Orlando Ballet dancers and Orlando Philharmonic is chairman of the DeVos musicians prepare for the ballet opening Friday, Oct. 30, at the Dr. Phillips Institute of Arts Center for the Performing Arts in Orlando. This will be the first season in Management at the which the ballet has live music for every performance. (Photo: Ricardo University of Maryland. Ramirez Buxeda) “Based on his track record of turning around arts organizations, and specifically ballet companies, we are confident his leadership will help us continue the momentum we have as a company and guide us toward long-term growth and success,” said Sibille Pritchard, a former Orlando Ballet board chair who is leading the turnaround effort. Facing a cash crunch before Christmas, the organization cut back on performances of “The Nutcracker” and threw the future of its much-ballyhooed live orchestral accompaniment into doubt. The ballet also severed ties with interim executive director James Cundiff, the group's sixth leader in six years. Throughout his career, Kaiser has demonstrated that he's not afraid of a challenge. During his tenure at the Kennedy Center, Kaiser oversaw a major renovation project and created the arts-management institute.

    Seton Hall University eRepository @ Seton Hall Law School Student Scholarship Seton Hall Law 5-1-2014 Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg: Champion of the Underdog Francis Leonard Tartaglia Follow this and additional works at: https://scholarship.shu.edu/student_scholarship Recommended Citation Tartaglia, Francis Leonard, "Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg: Champion of the Underdog" (2014). Law School Student Scholarship. 590. https://scholarship.shu.edu/student_scholarship/590 Introduction Throughout her legal career Ruth Bader Ginsburg has been a stalwart defender of the rights of individuals, seeking to secure their personal autonomy and equal citizenship against discriminatory laws and prejudicial practices. Known as the leader of the Supreme Court's 1 "liberal wing" , Justice Ginsburg's life and legal career have focused on ensuring that minorities (especially women) are treated equally under the law. This paper will discuss how Justice Ginsburg's early life and experiences have helped to shape her legal career and explain how those experiences have shaped Constitutional jurisprudence. Born from humble parentage in Brooklyn, New York, Ruth Bader Ginsburg's greatest role model was her mother, Celia Bader. She impressed upon young Ruth independence and a good education. Ruth Bader Ginsburg took such lessons to heart and excelled in her schooling. While attending law school, Ginsburg began to experience discrimination due to her sex. She had difficulty finding a job, despite a stellar academic record because many judges refused to hire women. When she finally managed to find a job, Ginsburg impressed. She went on to teach at Rutgers and Columbia Law Schools and co-founded the Women's Rights Project of the American Civil Liberties Union.
