Under the terms of the transaction, RailAmerica shareholders will receive only $27.00 in cash for each share of RailAmerica stock they own. The investigation concerns possible breaches of fiduciary duty and other violations of state law by the Board of Directors of RailAmerica for not acting in the Company’s shareholders' best interests in connection with the sale process to GWR.

The transaction may undervalue the Company as RailAmerica reported first quarter revenue and earnings that exceeded analyst projections. In addition, RailAmerica reported earnings per share that were higher than consensus estimates. Further, the transaction represents only a slight premium over were the stock traded at in July of 2012 and is below an analyst price target of $28.00 per share for RailAmerica stock.

“Cars with no or poor air conditioning can be saunas”

The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration reports that heat is the number one weather-related killer in the United States, resulting in hundreds of fatalities each year. In addition, the American Academy of Pediatrics states that heat stroke is one of the common causes of exercise-related death in high school students in the United States. “Heat-related illness is more common than one may believe,” says Alan Nager, MD, MHA, director of Emergency and Transport Medicine of Children’s Hospital Los Angeles.

To better inform parents on the symptoms and remedies of heat-related illnesses in children, Summers and Nager have identified signs of heat-related illnesses and provide recommendations on important do’s and don’ts when temperatures soar.

What are the Three Main Categories of Heat-Related Illness?

As a parent or guardian, it’s important to recognize when heat-related illnesses affect your child and how to effectively treat it.

1. Heat Cramps/Edema/Syncope – These are the mildest of the three heat-related illnesses. Heat cramps are common in children and young athletes. Common symptoms are muscle pain, tightness and spasms. Heat Edema – This is usually the result of being unaccustomed to hot/humid temperatures. Common symptoms are swelling of the hands and feet. Heat Syncope – This results from overheating, and having a low intake of water and salt. Symptoms include pale skin, fatigue, light-headedness and fainting.

2. Heat Exhaustion – This is severe and is a result of water and salt loss from the body from excessive sweating. Heat exhaustion occurs in conditions of extreme heat without adequate fluid and salt replacement. If heat exhaustion is not treated, it can develop into heat stroke. Common symptoms are extreme tiredness, dizziness, nausea or vomiting, rapid pulse, pale or flushed skin and profuse sweating. Treatment includes the administration of cool liquids, use of fans, cooler or cold environment.

3. Heat Stroke – This is extremely serious. It occurs when the body’s temperature rises rapidly to an excessively high degree and the body is unable to cool down. Heat stroke is a life-threatening emergency and requires IMMEDIATE medical attention. Common symptoms are body temperature higher than 104 degrees, low blood pressure, disorientation, loss of consciousness, seizures. Treatment includes care in an emergency department. Care given will include ice packs, intravenous fluids, lab testing and transfer usually to a critical care unit.

What You Should Do When Heat-Related Illness Strikes

Whether you’re witnessing heat cramps or heat stroke, you should ALWAYS:

• Remove your child from the activity they are playing
• Get out of direct sunlight
• Give your child plenty of water or liquid with electrolytes such as a sports drink

PRINTABLE SYMPTOM AND REMEDIES FLYER FOR YOUR HOME!

Children’s Hospital Los Angeles has put out a simple guide to recognize symptoms and remedies for each level of heat-related illness. This is a good flyer to post on your refrigerator or family bulletin board. Why not send it to friends and family too!

Why are Children and Teens Vulnerable?

Children and teens are busy and may not be able to recognize the symptoms of heat-related illness. Children don’t realize they need rest breaks or drink enough fluids. Additionally, infants and young children must rely on other people to pace their activity and keep them cool and hydrated.

Teens, especially young athletes may think they can “push through” the heat and ignore symptoms. Educating children and teens about the importance of adequate and proper hydration, as well as the dangers of heat-related illness, is critical in reducing the risk of heat injury.

Heat-Related Illness Prevention Tips

Important tips – while staying in-doors if it’s extremely hot outside is easier said than done, keep these tips in mind to protect your child:

• Wear lightweight, light-colored and loose-fitting clothing.
• Wear a hat.
• Wear sunscreen with a sun protection factor (SPF) of 30 or more and apply this every hour. For more information on sunscreen safety and the FDA’s new regulations that come into effect this year see my previous blog post, “Sunscreen Safety: Understanding the FDA’s New Regulations”
• Drink plenty of fluids to prevent dehydration, such as water or an electrolyte enhanced drink like Gatorade.
• Your child should drink fluids every 15 to 20 minutes.
• Avoid fluids containing caffeine or alcohol. Caffeine and alcohol actually make you more dehydrated and susceptible to heat-related illness.
• Plan your activities around cooler times of the day, for example before 10 a.m. and after 4 p.m.
• Take frequent rest breaks in a cool and shady area.
• For older children and teens, use a “buddy system” to keep an eye on each other. Take rest breaks and drink enough fluids.
• If you or your child is taking prescription medication or has a chronic condition, please consult with the physician regarding outdoor activity.
• Restrict car trips to the earlier and later part of a hot day. “Cars with no or poor air conditioning can be saunas,” Nager says.

“Hopefully, this information helps you feel more prepared to be outdoors and how to handle heat-related illnesses if it occurs,” says Summers. “Now go have fun and enjoy the summer!”

« Le système de fermeture VenaSeal Sapheon a été conçu pour traiter les plus de 1 000 000 de nouveaux patients par an qui subissent des interventions chirurgicales ou des ablations invasives et douloureuses »

Selon l'investigateur clinique de l'étude, le Dr. Jose I. Almeida de Vascular Device Partners, à Miami, en Floride, « La technologie adhésive non thermique [VenaSeal] dans le traitement de l'incompétence de la veine saphène s'avère sans risques et durable. Après une année de suivi, les résultats de cette étude sont tout à fait comparables aux méthodes par ablation thermique ».

Le Dr. Edward Mackay, de St. Petersburg, en Floride, qui a lui aussi participé à cette étude, a ajouté « Mon expérience du système VenaSeal a été très positive de par la facilité d'utilisation et la tolérance du patient à la fois pendant l'intervention et jusqu'à un an après l'opération. Cela pourrait changer la manière dont sont traitées les veines variqueuses ».

« Le système de fermeture VenaSeal Sapheon a été conçu pour traiter les plus de 1 000 000 de nouveaux patients par an qui subissent des interventions chirurgicales ou des ablations invasives et douloureuses », a déclaré Rod Raabe, M.D., médecin en chef et président de Sapheon. « Nous sommes convaincus que le système VenaSeal représente l'avenir du traitement des troubles du retour veineux ».

Le système de fermeture VenaSeal Sapheon comprend un adhésif de veine breveté et un système de mise en place personnalisé qui évite les injections profondes douloureuses et de longue durée nécessitées par l'anesthésie tumescente. L'intervention est réalisée sous guidage par imagerie ultrasonore et ne demande qu'une anesthésie locale au site d'insertion du cathéter.

„Meine Erfahrungen mit dem VenaSeal-System hinsichtlich Benutzerfreundlichkeit und Verträglichkeit beim Patienten, sowohl während des Verfahrens als auch ein Jahr danach, sind sehr positiv. Diese Methode hat das Potenzial, die Krampfaderbehandlung zu revolutionieren.“

Laut dem leitenden Prüfarzt der Studie, Dr. Jose I. Almeida von Vascular Device Partners in Miami, Florida, hat sich die „nicht-thermische [VenaSeal]-Klebetechnik für die Behandlung von Stammveneninsuffizienz als sicher und dauerhaft erwiesen. Bei der Nachbeobachtung sind die Ergebnisse dieser Studie nach einem Jahr durchaus vergleichbar mit Methoden, die mit Thermalablation arbeiten.“

Dr. Edward Mackay, St. Petersburg, Florida, der ebenfalls an dieser Studie beteiligt war, fügte hinzu: „Meine Erfahrungen mit dem VenaSeal-System hinsichtlich Benutzerfreundlichkeit und Verträglichkeit beim Patienten, sowohl während des Verfahrens als auch ein Jahr danach, sind sehr positiv. Diese Methode hat das Potenzial, die Krampfaderbehandlung zu revolutionieren.“

„Das VenaSeal Sapheon Verschlusssystem wurde für die jährlich mehr als 1.000.000 neuen Patienten entwickelt, die sich invasiven und schmerzhaften Operationen oder Ablationsbehandlungen unterziehen müssen“, sagte Dr. med. Rod Raabe, Chairman und Chief Medical Officer von Sapheon. „Wir sehen im VenaSeal-System die Zukunft für die Behandlung von venösem Reflux.“

Das VenaSeal Sapheon Verschlusssystem besteht aus einem patentierten Venen-Dichtungsmittel und einem maßgeschneiderten Einführsystem, das die schmerzhafte und zeitaufwendige Injektion einer Tumeszenzanästhesie überflüssig macht. Das Verfahren wird unter Ultraschall-Bildgebung durchgeführt und erfordert lediglich eine Lokalanästhesie am Einführungspunkt des Katheters.

Über Sapheon

Sapheon ist ein Privatunternehmen im Bereich medizinische Geräte, dessen Zielsetzung es ist, neue Methoden und Technologien für die Behandlung von Gefäßkrankheiten zu entwickeln.

“Gas Shales in Europe, 2012 - Market Analysis, Industry Development and Competitive Landscape”

Eastern Europe Set to Lead Shale Gas Production in the Region.

Poland and Ukraine aim to free themselves from reliance on Russian gas imports, and make plans for domestic shale gas production, according to a new report by energy experts The authors.

The new report* argues that shale development is challenged by Eastern Europe's difficult land access, inadequate infrastructure, increasing protests against hydraulic fracturing and limited availability of drilling equipment, but acknowledges that positive government attitudes are putting these aspirations in reach.

Russia hold enormous natural gas reserves, and their export business has resulted in a near monopoly held by major Russian natural gas producer, Gazprom, throughout the East European region. This over dependence has led to a drive within Eastern Europe to seek alternative sources of natural gas.

Poland is currently at the forefront of shale gas development in Europe, and is believed to have significant recoverable shale gas reserves in the region. The country currently contains recoverable shale gas reserves of between 12.4tcf and 27.4tcf, with maximum recoverable shale gas reserves at 68.6tcf, which if exploited can provide for at least 24 years of the country's natural gas needs at current consumption rate. Representing around 30% of the total European shale gas market, Poland is aiming to maintain this dominance through numerous exploration projects and concessions.

Seen by the world, the basketball dunking Skullman image on Tie Dye uniforms, worn by the 1992 Lithuanian Men's Olympic Basketball Team, became a househould icon and part of sports history during the 1992 Barcelona Summer Olympics. The Slam Dunking Skeleton gained international attention and rallied the 1992 Men's Lithuanian Basketball Team to a bronze medal victory. The image of the Slam Dunking Skullman on the uniforms became a point of focus and pride for Lithuania's Olympic Men's Basketball Team.

The new 20th Anniversary Edition is an exclusive release of the original jersey with the same iconic Slam-Dunking Skeleton front. The back of the shirt is imprinted with the 2012 Anniversary year and the trademarked skeletal hands slam dunking a flaming basketball, available from www.skullman.com.

The Original trademark was created independently by Olympic sports artist Greg Speirs in 1992, http://www.imdb.com/name/nm3998173/ who donated 100% of his profits that year from the sale of jerseys to become the major funder of the 1992 Men's Lithuanian Olympic Basketball Team. The artist was the source and creator of the image, now documented in the soon to be released 2012 movie, "The Other Dream Team." http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1606829/fullcredits#. The original skeleton design represented the artist's interpretation of team rising up from nothing.

The Original 1992 Jerseys and the new 2012 Edition Collector's Reissue are both available from: www.skullman.com.

America Introduces Healthcare to Commercial Hubs

Retail clinics have grown exponentially in the US over the last five years, and gained significant interest among patients and physicians alike, states a new report by healthcare experts GBI Research.

The new report* shows that the first retail clinic, QuickMedx, opened in 2000 in Minnesota, and since this inception, retail clinics have grown to treat an increasing range of illnesses and offer an increasing range of services. Cash payments from patients have evolved into collaborations with insurance companies, and the retail clinics revolution seems set to continue.

Walk-in medical services are located in convenient, easily accessible places such as malls and pharmacies, where Nurse Practitioners (NP) and Physician Assistants (PA) treat minor conditions such as sore throats, flu and acne and skin irritation, and also provide other healthcare services, delivering vaccinations, weight-loss plans and smoking cessation strategies.

The average waiting time for an appointment in regular clinics surveyed in 10 metropolitan US states is 20.3 days; whereas in a retail clinic a customer can walk in and use any of the services with a maximum waiting time of 15 minutes. In addition to being in convenient locations, retail clinics are open throughout the week, including during evening hours, at fairly low costs in comparison to regular clinics.

The booming retail clinic industry lowers the costs for health insurance policy makers, who can divert minor conditions to retail clinics, reducing costs and the number of emergency room visits. The Convenient Care Association is a US trade association, whose member clinics constitute more than 90% of all retail clinics. The association helps to standardize operations, establish exemplary practices, and share resources to drive growth in the retail clinic industry, ensuring that high standards are met by clinics across the country.

RESULTS FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2012

The results for the six months ended June 30, 2012 reflect the consolidated financial results of Magyar Telecom B.V. and its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”) in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”).

The reporting currency is euro (“EUR”), however the functional currency of continued operations is the Hungarian forint (“HUF”), being the currency of the primary economic environment in which the Company operates.

When comparing the financial results for the six months ended June 30, 2012 to the financial results for the six months ended June 30, 2011, the reported results in euro have been affected by the difference between the average HUF/EUR exchange rates. The Hungarian forint depreciated against the euro by 10% with an average HUF/EUR exchange rate of 295.64 during the six months ended June 30, 2012 compared to the average HUF/EUR exchange rate of 269.38 during the six months ended June 30, 2011. This change in exchange rates had an impact on Hungarian forint denominated earnings when converted into euro.

The Company’s revenue was EUR 84.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012 which represents a 15% decrease compared to the six months ended June 30, 2011. Segment gross margin decreased by 14% from EUR 81.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 to EUR 70.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012. General operating expense decreased by 6% from EUR 41.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 to EUR 39.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012. Income from operations decreased to EUR 3.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012 from EUR 8.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011, mainly as a result of the decrease in segment gross margin. Net result for the six months ended June 30, 2012 was a net loss of EUR 23.4 million compared to a net income of EUR 18.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011, which includes the gain of EUR 28.5 million accounted for in relation to the acquisition of Fibernet.

Residential Voice – Residential Voice segment gross margin was EUR 17.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012, representing a decrease of 27% compared to the six months ended June 30, 2011. The decrease was mainly due to the decrease in our Residential Voice revenue as a result of the decrease in the number of customers and traffic and the 10% depreciation of the HUF against the EUR during the six months ended June 30, 2012 compared to the prior year.

Residential Internet – Residential Internet segment gross margin was EUR 12.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012, representing a decrease of 10% compared to the six months ended June 30, 2011. The decrease was mainly due to the 10% depreciation of the HUF against the EUR during the six months ended June 30, 2012 compared to the prior year. In functional currency terms, Residential Internet segment gross margin was flat year over year.

Cable - Cable segment gross margin was EUR 6.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012 compared to EUR 4.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011. The Cable segment was introduced as of March 1, 2011 and relates to the revenue generated by the ex-Fibernet business.

Corporate – Corporate segment gross margin was EUR 22.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012, representing a decrease of 12% compared to the six months ended June 30, 2011. The decrease was mainly due to the decrease in Corporate Voice revenue as a result of loss of lines and price erosion due to competition and the 10% depreciation of the HUF against the EUR during the six months ended June 30, 2012 compared to the prior year.

Wholesale – Wholesale segment gross margin was EUR 11.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012, representing a decrease of 15% compared to the six months ended June 30, 2011, which is mainly due to the 10% devaluation of the HUF against the EUR compared to the prior year, and the decrease in small bandwidth wholesale leased line revenue.

Segment gross margin is a non-IFRS financial measure, which is used by management to evaluate the performance of the business segments. The following table represents the reconciliation of segment gross margin to income from operations as per the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income / (Loss) of the Company:

Net cash provided by operations, which includes interest paid but excludes capital expenditure and debt repayments, was EUR 11.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012.

COMMENTS FROM DAVID McGOWAN

Commenting on the financial results, David McGowan, Chief Executive Officer of Invitel said, “The general economic conditions in Hungary continue to be challenging; with an increasing pace of company liquidations and the introduction of new telecom sector taxes applying pressure. The Company has made several initiatives to improve its competitive position; in the Residential segment the developments are focused on transforming our service portfolio with the focus on TV-led offerings and an increased emphasis on value for customers. Our Corporate segment enjoys a growing customer base due partly to an increased focus on high quality ICT and cloud services.”
