ACUTE PEDIATRICASTHMA: THERAPEUTICEVIDENCE ANDCONTROVERSIESBy Jill M. Baren, MD, MBE, FACEP, FAAPAsthma is one of the most <strong>com</strong>mondiseases of childhood, with a prevalencerate of 5.4%in the pediatric population,accounting for 17% of pediatricencounters in US emergency departments.Although there is no known cure forasthma, advances in scientificunderstanding of the disease's underlyingmechanisms have produced treatmenttools and management strategies that canimprove the health of children with asthma.However, the variability in patientresponses to asthma therapies makes asingle treatment strategy particularlychallenging. In this video, Dr. Jill Barenpresents an evidence-based discussionabout some of the controversies in themanagement of pediatric asthma,including the use of metered-dose inhalersversus nebulizers, levalbuterol versusalbuterol, the role of ipratropium, and theuse of inhaled corticosteroids in acuteasthma. In addition, she reviews novel orun<strong>com</strong>mon therapeutic interventions, suchas the use of bi-level positive airwaypressure (BIPAP) and heliox therapy.Item no. : TV08970012Format : DVDDuration : 30 minutesCopyright : 2010Price : USD 295.00AFRICAGRACE, MILLY, LUCY . . .CHILD SOLDIERSBy Raymonde ProvencherWhen we usually speak about childsoldiers, we rarely realize that many ofthem are girls. This little-known reality isunderscored by the gripping personalaccounts of Grace Akallo, Milly Auma, andLucy Lanyero in Raymonde Provencher'sriveting, visually stunning film. As adultsseeking to rebuild their lives, they arethree among thousands of young girlsviolently abducted from Ugandan villagesby the Lord's Resistance Army, a rebelforce that trained kidnapped girls to fightand kill, often forcing them intochild-bearing unions with their captors.Back in their village and internationally,these survivors of a shattered past helpwomen ex-rebels find a voice in the world,acceptance at home, and forgiveness fromone another. And joining forces withvictims of other conflicts, they are active ina global campaign, envisioning a more justworld where their own and all children areno longer tools of war.With Empowering Hands (EH), theassociation they founded to share theirexperiences and consolidate their efforts,they are working with children who havebeen affected by war to help them readjustonce they return to their families. Thesewomen are determined: the victims' voicesmust be heard and the war in Ugandamust be stopped. The future of an entiresacrificed generation depends on it.Through moving first-hand accounts,CHILD SOLDIERS provides a grippingportrayal of a generation shattered byviolence and war. Interspersing personalaccounts with scenes from daily life, thedocumentary also uses a unique visualand sound treatment that conjures up thestifled echoes of a repressed past.Reviews "Recent African history, according tocountless documentaries, consists ofwars waged by men andreconciliations waged by women.

She emerged advocatingforgiveness and reconciliation. In acountry where ethnic violence has createdseemingly irreparable rifts among Tutsis,Hutus and other Congolese, thisremarkable woman is a vital voice in herbeleaguered nation's search for peace.When war came to Rose's village, shewas separated from her five-year-olddaughter, Nangabire. Rose managed toescape with nine of her ten children andwas eventually resettled in Phoenix,Arizona. Over a decade later, mother anddaughter are reunited in the US wherethey must face the past and build a newfuture. As mother and daughter get toknow one another, they must <strong>com</strong>e toterms with a painful past, and define whatit means to be a survivor, a woman, arefugee and an American.Through this intimate family portraitunfolding against the wider drama of war,we explore the long-term and often hiddeneffects of war on women and families,particularly those in traditionalsocieties—financial despair, increasedsusceptibility to rape, and social ostracism.PUSHING THE ELEPHANT will captureone of the most important stories of ourage, a time when genocidal violence ischallenged by the moral fortitude andgrace of one woman's mission for peace.This is a powerful first-person portrait of anindomitable woman dedicated to peaceand the healing power of forgiveness. Amoving, joyful and hopeful chronicle ofrefugee experience and acculturation inthe U.S. today, PUSHING THEELEPHANT is also an insightful portrait ofthe changing face of immigration's in ourincreasingly diverse society.Reviews "The strength of "Pushing theElephant" lies in the way it brings thislarger-than-life inspirational figure intothe everyday domestic realm, whereactivism be<strong>com</strong>es a function less ofheroic destiny than of consciouschoice, open to anyone.

"Water must be declared a publictrust and a human right that belongs to thepeople, the ecosystem and the future, andpreserved for all time and practice in law.Clean water must be delivered as a publicservice, not a profitable <strong>com</strong>modity."The film intimately captures the public faceof Maude Barlow as well as the unscriptedwoman behind the scenes. The camerashadows her life on the road in Canada --including an eye-opening visit to Alberta'star sands -- and the United States over thecourse of a year as she serves as the UNSenior Advisor on Water to Fr. Migueld'Escoto Brockmann, President of the63rd Session of the United Nations.More than a portrait of an activist, WATERON THE TABLE presents several dramaticopposing arguments. Barlow's critics arepolicy and economic experts who arguewater is no different than any otherresource, and that the best way to protectfreshwater is to privatize it. It is proposedthat Canada bulk-export its water to theUnited States in the face of an imminentwater crisis.Reviews "Water is life. It's not like a debateabout running shoes or oil. It's adebate about life.

This award-winningdocumentary traces Phoebe's voyage ofself-discovery as an intersex person, agroup of conditions formerly termedhermaphroditism. Learning only in herteens that she was born with 46XY (male)chromosomes, Hart now seeks tounderstand her own story and the storiesof others affected by this <strong>com</strong>plex andoften shameful syndrome.With help from sister Bonnie (also bornwith the same condition) and support frompartner James, Hart drives acrossAustralia, interviewing individuals whosestruggles and victories mirror and differfrom her own. Some advocate systemicchange ending shame and controversialgenital surgeries, while others debate<strong>com</strong>ing out or staying closeted with astigmatized secret. Questioning rigidlydefined constructs of gender, sexuality,and normality, often with lively good humor,ORCHIDS is the first film to look atintersex from a positive perspective. Itsengaging portrait of survival, courage andreconciliation will speak to a variety ofaudiences and spark lively discussionabout what it means to be perceived as"different."Reviews "The filmmaker's warmth and candorprovide an engaging perspective onintersex identity and one family'schanging attitude toward their'secret.'" - Patricia White, Film andMedia Studies, Swarthmore College"Winner of the Australian Teachers ofMedia's ATOM Award for bestdocumentary, Hart's work took yearsto <strong>com</strong>plete and makes for <strong>com</strong>pellingviewing.

Thechoice of method of reperfusion is basedon an individual hospital's capability andthe time to percutaneous coronaryintervention (PCI), whether directly or viatransfer, relative to fibrinolytic therapy. TheAmerican College of Cardiology/AmericanHeart Association (ACC/AHA) 2009 jointSTEMI/PCI focused update re<strong>com</strong>mendsthat each <strong>com</strong>munity develop a STEMIsystem of care that follows standards atleast as stringent as those developed forthe AHA's Mission: Lifeline initiative. Itshould include ongoing multidisciplinaryteam meetings with emergency medicalservices (EMS), STEMI referral centers,and STEMI receiving centers; a processfor prehospital identification and activation;destination protocols for STEMI receivingcenters; and transfer protocols for STEMIreferral centers.

This little-known reality isunderscored by the gripping personalaccounts of Grace Akallo, Milly Auma, andLucy Lanyero in Raymonde Provencher'sriveting, visually stunning film. As adultsseeking to rebuild their lives, they arethree among thousands of young girlsviolently abducted from Ugandan villagesby the Lord's Resistance Army, a rebelforce that trained kidnapped girls to fightand kill, often forcing them intochild-bearing unions with their captors.Back in their village and internationally,these survivors of a shattered past helpwomen ex-rebels find a voice in the world,acceptance at home, and forgiveness fromone another. And joining forces withvictims of other conflicts, they are active ina global campaign, envisioning a more justworld where their own and all children areno longer tools of war.With Empowering Hands (EH), theassociation they founded to share theirexperiences and consolidate their efforts,they are working with children who havebeen affected by war to help them readjustonce they return to their families. Thesewomen are determined: the victims' voicesmust be heard and the war in Ugandamust be stopped. The future of an entiresacrificed generation depends on it.Through moving first-hand accounts,CHILD SOLDIERS provides a grippingportrayal of a generation shattered byviolence and war. Interspersing personalaccounts with scenes from daily life, thedocumentary also uses a unique visualand sound treatment that conjures up thestifled echoes of a repressed past.Reviews"Recent African history, according tocountless documentaries, consists ofIN THE NAME OF THEFAMILYBy Shelley SaywellSchoolgirl Aqsa Parvez, sisters Amina andSarah Said, and college student FauziaMuhammad were all North Americanteenagers—and victims of premeditated,murderous attacks by male familymembers.

In this revolutionary"participatory documentary," digitalfilmmaker Georg Boch, one of more than200 people that belong to a Facebookgroup called "Adorno Changed My Life,"sets out to learn how Adorno's work hastouched the group's lives.For the film, Boch solicits videos andSkype conversations. Unlike the traditionaldocumentary, this approach allows each ofthe participants to frame how they want tobe perceived and to direct their ownconversations.For art historian Travis English, whoshamelessly multitasks on camera,reading Adorno for the first time was like"swallowing a stick of dynamite."Australian intellectual Ivan Krisjansen(who uses a portrait of Adorno as hisFacebook profile photo) <strong>com</strong>pares it to"climbing Mount Everest, standing on thepeak and being able to see forever."Digital culture critic Dennis Redmond —who at times speaks in front of a shelf fullof teddy bears — sees parallels betweenAdorno's work and the digital <strong>com</strong>mons.Redmond encourages viewers to readrandom pages from Adorno to see howthey seamlessly fit into a whole in thesame way that fragments of digital culturemesh.It's also a metaphor for the film itself:far-flung, isolated members of an onlinegroup whose individual contributions aretransformed into a cultural product. Thefilm also makes no attempt to hide itsdigital roots. Rather than cleaning up timelags or sharpening focus, it celebrates theimperfections of digital <strong>com</strong>munication.FACEBOOK'S "ADORNO CHANGED MYLIFE" resists the temptation to offer apotted guide to the philosopher's thought.Instead, it allows its participants to set theterms of the conversation, and to revealtheir relationships to Adorno's work.

GRASSROOTSREVOLUTIONIn the summer of 2009, shortly afterBarack Obama and a DemocraticCongress swept to power promising a newera of hope and change, a citizens protestmovement emerged out of nowherethreatening to derail their agenda. Somesaid this uprising was the epitome ofgrassroots democracy. Others said it wasa classic example of 'astroturfing' -- anelaborate corporate public relations effortdesigned to create the impression of aspontaneous uprising. Curious to find outfor himself, Australian filmmaker TakiOldham goes undercover and straight intothe heart of the movement. He visitsraucous health care town hall meetingswhere irate voters parrot insuranceindustry PR; learns that home-grown"citizen groups" challenging the sciencebehind climate change are funded by bigoil <strong>com</strong>panies; and infiltrates a tea partymovement whose anti-government rageturns out to be less the product of populistrage than of corporate strategy. In the end,The Billionaires' Tea Party offers aterrifying look at how corporate elites areexploiting the anxieties of ordinaryAmericans -- capitalizing on anger,resentment, and paranoia to advance anarrow, often anti-democratic, agenda.Reviews "Taki Oldham's documentary isjournalism at its best.

In this revolutionary"participatory documentary," digitalfilmmaker Georg Boch, one of more than200 people that belong to a Facebookgroup called "Adorno Changed My Life,"sets out to learn how Adorno's work hastouched the group's lives.For the film, Boch solicits videos andSkype conversations. Unlike the traditionaldocumentary, this approach allows each ofthe participants to frame how they want tobe perceived and to direct their ownconversations.For art historian Travis English, whoshamelessly multitasks on camera,reading Adorno for the first time was like"swallowing a stick of dynamite."Australian intellectual Ivan Krisjansen(who uses a portrait of Adorno as hisFacebook profile photo) <strong>com</strong>pares it to________________________________________________________________________________________________________Learning Rendezvous LimitedEmail: inquiry@learningemall.<strong>com</strong> Websites: http://www.learningemall.<strong>com</strong> & http://www.learningemall.<strong>com</strong>.hk77


"climbing Mount Everest, standing on thepeak and being able to see forever."Digital culture critic Dennis Redmond —who at times speaks in front of a shelf fullof teddy bears — sees parallels betweenAdorno's work and the digital <strong>com</strong>mons.Redmond encourages viewers to readrandom pages from Adorno to see howthey seamlessly fit into a whole in thesame way that fragments of digital culturemesh.It's also a metaphor for the film itself:far-flung, isolated members of an onlinegroup whose individual contributions aretransformed into a cultural product. Thefilm also makes no attempt to hide itsdigital roots. Rather than cleaning up timelags or sharpening focus, it celebrates theimperfections of digital <strong>com</strong>munication.FACEBOOK'S "ADORNO CHANGED MYLIFE" resists the temptation to offer apotted guide to the philosopher's thought.Instead, it allows its participants to set theterms of the conversation, and to revealtheir relationships to Adorno's work.

She emerged advocatingforgiveness and reconciliation. In acountry where ethnic violence has createdseemingly irreparable rifts among Tutsis,Hutus and other Congolese, thisremarkable woman is a vital voice in herbeleaguered nation's search for peace.When war came to Rose's village, shewas separated from her five-year-olddaughter, Nangabire. Rose managed toescape with nine of her ten children andwas eventually resettled in Phoenix,Arizona. Over a decade later, mother anddaughter are reunited in the US wherethey must face the past and build a newfuture. As mother and daughter get toknow one another, they must <strong>com</strong>e toterms with a painful past, and define whatit means to be a survivor, a woman, arefugee and an American.Through this intimate family portraitunfolding against the wider drama of war,we explore the long-term and often hiddeneffects of war on women and families,particularly those in traditionalsocieties—financial despair, increasedsusceptibility to rape, and social ostracism.PUSHING THE ELEPHANT will captureone of the most important stories of ourage, a time when genocidal violence ischallenged by the moral fortitude andgrace of one woman's mission for peace.This is a powerful first-person portrait of anindomitable woman dedicated to peaceand the healing power of forgiveness. Amoving, joyful and hopeful chronicle ofrefugee experience and acculturation inthe U.S. today, PUSHING THEELEPHANT is also an insightful portrait ofthe changing face of immigration's in ourincreasingly diverse society.Reviews "The strength of "Pushing theElephant" lies in the way it brings thislarger-than-life inspirational figure intothe everyday domestic realm, whereactivism be<strong>com</strong>es a function less ofheroic destiny than of consciouschoice, open to anyone.

TOPICAL ANDHISTORICALDEATH JUST ISN'T WHATIT USED TO BEBy James N. Kirkpatrick, MDControversy in diagnosing death has along history, but the essential difficultieshave not changed for hundreds of years. Amajor source of confusion inunderstanding death is the mixing of thedefinition of death—a decision about whenlife has ended—with criteria and testsused to assess when death has occurred.What is it that shifts human beings fromalive to dead—lack of sentience? Lack ofpersonhood? Cessation of allspontaneous biological activity? Departureof the soul? In this video, Dr. JamesKirkpatrick revisits the concept of death.He traces the historical difficulties indiagnosing death, reviews the currentcontroversiesandcriteria—cardiopulmonary versusneurological—for determining death,discusses the legal and ethical issuessurrounding organ harvesting, andexplores the inherent problems withmaking the diagnosis of death a matter ofpersonal choice.Item no. : TR08970040Format : DVDDuration : 30 minutesCopyright : 2010Price : USD 295.00ELECTRONIC HEALTHRECORDS: IMPACT ONSAFETYBy David Krusch, MDThe electronic health record (HER) hasevolved to a point where widespreadutilization is now a possibility.

But what about in the crowdedand often violent slums of Lagos?Nigeria has had some success in gettingmore women into government andbusiness. But what about at street level--inthe crowded and often violent slums of thecapital, Lagos? Every big city has gangs ofyoung people on the margins; in Lagos,it's the "Area Boys", gangs of youths who"control" the neighborhood who know howto play rough and dirty to survive. Sowhat's an "Area Girl"? Is she tough and"cool" too, or just a young woman withouta job? With 10 brothers and sisters,Onyinye left school at the age of 12. Nowshe shoulders the responsibility for caringfor her siblings by working on the street.But Onyinye wants a legitimatecareer--and dreams of be<strong>com</strong>ing acatwalk model.Review "[Scent of the Streets presents aharsh reality of how some young girlschoose to live their lives and actuallyaccept it as a survival mode with noalternative…The material ispresented in an authentic way in thenatural setting and contains a subtlemessage of the dangers of life on thestreets--rape, beatings, and physicalfights with <strong>com</strong>petitors…The film canbe used successfully in stimulating adiscussion amongst the youth aboutthe negative aspects of such a life aswell as an exploration of alternatives."- Teboho Moja, Clinical Professor ofHigher Education, <strong>New</strong> YorkUniversityItem no.FormatDurationAudience: AF01110657: DVD: 27 minutes: Grades 10-12, College,AdultsCopyright : 2010StdBkNo : 1594589941Price : USD 195.00LIFE 8: TRAWLER GIRLA female trawler captain in Namibiaexemplifies goals set forth for women inthe Millennium Development Goals.Johanna is Namibia's first female trawlercaptain. She trained with the NamibianMaritime Fisheries Institute and becameskipper after eight years service as anofficer and chief mate. Now in <strong>com</strong>mand ofa crew of 23, she finds that men are notused to a woman at the wheel. Namibiasigned up to the Millennium DevelopmentGoals that aim to cut poverty by half in2015. These goals include specific targetsfor women on education, reproductivehealth and equality. Johanna is anexample of targets fulfilled--but what abouther friends and relatives back home?Review "There is a continuous challenge oftrying to strike a balance in the film:being a woman in a man's world,being a professional and leader atwork and being an ordinary womanback home with no title or recognitionof being a leader. There are internaldilemmas that happen in daily life toall, in this case, being a mother andbeing a successful career woman.Johanna brings a message of hope tomany, a message that needs to beheard. Life is a challenge but thosechallenges need to be taken head onby both males and females. The filmis good teaching material and is likelyto motivate youngsters who wouldsee Johanna as their role model." -Teboho Moja, Clinical Professor ofHigher Education, <strong>New</strong> YorkUniversityItem no.FormatDurationAudience: HJ01110663: DVD: 27 minutes: Grades 10-12, College,AdultsCopyright : 2010StdBkNo : 1594589917Price : USD 195.00WORLD HISTORYNOSTALGIA FOR THELIGHTBy Patricio GuzmanFor his new film master director PatricioGuzman, famed for his politicaldocumentaries (THE BATTLE OF CHILE,THE PINOCHET CASE), travels 10,000feet above sea level to the driest place onearth, the Atacama Desert, where atop themountains astronomers from all over theworld gather to observe the stars. The skyis so translucent that it allows them to seeright to the boundaries of the universe.The Atacama is also a place where theharsh heat of the sun keeps humanremains intact: those of Pre-Columbianmummies; 19th century explorers andminers; and the remains of politicalprisoners, “disappeared” by the Chileanarmy after the military coup of September,1973.So while astronomers examine the mostdistant and oldest galaxies, at the foot ofthe mountains, women, surviving relativesof the disappeared whose bodies weredumped here, search, even aftertwenty-five years, for the remains of theirloved ones, to reclaim their families’histories.Melding the celestial quest of theastronomers and the earthly one of thewomen, NOSTALGIA FOR THE LIGHT isa gorgeous, moving, and deeply personalodyssey.Reviews "Stunningly beautiful.
