Taylor & Francis Will Publish CHANCE for the American Statistical Association

Alexandria, VA and Abingdon, Oxford, UK (PRWEB) August 17, 2011

The American Statistical Association (ASA) and international publisher Taylor & Francis Group are pleased to announce that Taylor & Francis will publish CHANCE in full color on behalf of the ASA beginning in 2012. CHANCE is the ASAs quarterly magazine that brings statistics to everyday life.

Not a technical magazine, but rather a cultural record of the evolving field of statistics, CHANCE entertains and informs. It features easy-to-digest articles that showcase how statistical methods and ideas in the social, biological, physical, and medical sciences can be engaging, fun, and enlightening.

Since its creation in 1988, CHANCE has covered such topics as expert witnesses and the courts, teacher evaluations and student grades, the statistical history of the AIDS epidemic, election night predictions, racial profiling, counter-terrorism, and the hot hand in ice hockey.

Executive Editor Sam Behseta intends to continue serving the CHANCE audience by publishing highly engaging statistical articles with minimal use of equations and technical jargon. The magazine, said Behseta, soon will offer book reviews and exciting columns about ethics in statistics, statistical data privacy, and statistics education and pedagogy.

On behalf of Taylor and Francis, Kevin Bradley, president, U.S. Journals, commented that We are proud to add CHANCE to the T&F family of publications, and I look forward to seeing the magazines expansion. We are pleased to be partnering with the ASA to bring CHANCE and the ASA journals to a broader and more international audience. The http://www.tandfonline.com platform will serve the ASA and the scientific community well and we are grateful that the ASA has placed their confidence in us.

CHANCE also sponsors The Statistics Forum, a blog that provides everyone the opportunity to participate in discussions about probability and statistics and their role in important and interesting topics. Interested parties can read the blog at http://statisticsforum.wordpress.com.

In 2012 and beyond, the ASA and Taylor & Francis will continue to offer CHANCE by subscription. ASA members should continue to contact the ASA for their subscriptions. Others seeking 2012 subscription and access information should contact the Taylor & Francis Customer Service Department at (800) 354-1420 or customerservice(at)taylorandfrancis(dot)com.

Greg Albright Receives Award for Distinguished Achievement from Direct Marketing Association of Washington

VIENNA, VA (PRWEB) November 14, 2012

Greg Albright, co-founder and principal of Production Solutions, Inc. (PS), a direct marketing solutions company, will receive the Direct Marketing Association of Washington (DMAW)s highest honor, the Award for Distinguished Achievement on November 28, 2012 at the Best of Direct Spotlight on Achievement Awards Ceremony at the National Press Club.

According to the President of SmartGiving, Phyllis Freedman, Greg Albright represents the very best of the direct marketing industry and of our larger community. Through Production Solutions, he has been an innovator in the practice of direct marketing and has shared this knowledge freely for the professional advancement of individuals and the fundraising advancement of causes. More importantly, he has used his company and his own personal energy to make a difference. He has given his time and expertise tirelessly in support of the DMAW and the nonprofit sector.

During his 25 year tenure at PS, Greg conceived of and developed several innovative technology tools currently in use by PS, an internet-based bidding system, http://www.BidToPrint.com, and the firms proprietary production management software, ProSIS. He also launched and managed two company subsidiaries offering complementary data management and design services.

Greg has been a member of the DMAW for over 20 years. He currently serves on the Membership Committee of the Direct Marketing Association Nonprofit Federation (DMANF). He is also a member of the Direct Marketing Fundraisers Association (DMFA) and Association of Fundraising Professionals DC Chapter (AFPDC).

Tiffany Neill, Senior Vice President of one of the premier fundraising agencies in the country, Lautman, Maska, Neill and Company, uniquely summed up Albrights reason for being honored by DMAW: It is not only for his ability to stay on the cutting edge of the industry as well as his volunteer work for the industry and organizations about which he is passionate, but, she goes on to say, he [also] deserves it for what he has not done. Greg says ‘no’ when he can’t give 100 percent to something, when he doesn’t have the capacity or the answers. And, then he generously finds someone else who can help. As a result, when he does something, he always excels.

Albright will now be ranked among such greats in the direct marketing community who have been bestowed the same honor: Rick Whelan of Marketing General, Pat Silver of Silver Marketing and Roger Craver, founder of Craver, Mathews, Smith and Company. For more information about the Best of Direct on Wednesday, November 28, from 6pm 9pm at the National Press Club, visit: http://www.dmaw.org.

American Association of Poison Control Centers Celebrates 50th Annual Poison Prevention Week

Alexandria, VA (PRWEB) March 14, 2012

The American Association of Poison Control Centers (AAPCC) will join local poison centers and poison prevention partners across the country in celebrating the 50th anniversary of National Poison Prevention Week March 18 through 24, 2012, according to Dr. Rick Dart, AAPCC president.

Since 1962, the President of the United States has proclaimed the third week of March as National Poison Prevention Week to raise awareness about the dangers of poisoning.

Much progress has been made in poisoning prevention in the 50 years since National Poison Prevention Week was first observed, Dart said. However, there is still much work to be done; poisoning is now the leading cause of death from unintentional injuries in the U.S. ahead of motor vehicle crashes and guns.

Fifty years ago, 3-year-old Philip was rushed to the nearest hospital 30 minutes away. Tragically, he had found and drunk a bottle of rat poison. Although every attempt was made to save his life, he lived only a few more hours. Fifty years later, his sister Cathy Seifried of Texas is still grieving. According to Seifried, her brothers death had long-lasting effects on her entire family. I had good parents, Seifried said. They managed to function and go through the daily motions, but as a family, we were broken.

Today, Seifried focuses on supporting poison control centers. If our family wouldve had access to the education, outreach and treatment services that todays poison centers offer, we may have avoided the heartbreak and devastation caused by my brothers death, Seifried said.

Cathys story illustrates the importance of the treatment services provided by Americas 57 poison centers, said Debbie Carr, AAPCC executive director. Unfortunately, federal budget cuts in 2011 reduced funding for poison centers by 36 percent; further cuts will make it difficult for poison centers to continue providing those essential, life-saving services.

According to Carr, Americas 57 poison centers are committed to safeguarding the health and well-being of every American through poison prevention and free, confidential, expert medical services. Poison centers respond to calls 24 hours a day, seven days a week in order to help those who have been exposed to toxic substances. They also are committed to providing information about how poisonings occur and ways to prevent them.

In 2010, U.S. poison centers answered more than 3.9 million calls, including nearly 2.4 million calls about human exposures to poisons. About 75 percent of all calls to poison centers originated in peoples homes, and about 71 percent of the people who called with poison emergencies were treated at home following the advice of poison center experts, saving millions of dollars in medical expenses.

Since 1962, the third week of March has been designated National Poison Prevention Week and has focused national attention on the dangers of poisonings and how to prevent them. Every day of this years 50th anniversary will focus on a poison-prevention-related theme:

Sunday, March 18 Poisonings Span a Lifetime
Monday, March 19 Children Act Fast So Do Poisons
Tuesday, March 20 Poison Centers: Saving Lives 24/7
Wednesday, March 21 Take Your Medicines Safely
Thursday, March 22 Home Safe Home
Friday, March 23 Poison Prevention Superheroes: Share Your Stories
Saturday, March 24 50 Ways To Prevent Poisonings

Philip has been gone for 50 years, Seifried said. I know there are many other stories just like his. For their sakes, please get involved with your local poison center in promoting poisoning prevention and the Poison Help number. You can make a difference.

If the unthinkable happens, its good to know help is just a phone call away, Dart said. Program your cell phone with the Poison Help number and post it near your home phone. 1-800-222-1222.

For more information, the media may contact Loreeta Canton, AAPCC communications manager, at 703.894.1863 or canton(at)aapcc(dot)org or Brett Schuster, communications assistant, at 703.894.1859 or schuster(at)aapcc(dot)org.

The AAPCC supports the nations 57 poison centers in their efforts to treat and prevent drug, consumer product, animal, environmental and food poisoning. Members staff the Poison Help hotline at 1-800-222-1222 that provides free, confidential, expert medical advice 24 hours a day, seven days a week, 365 days a year from toxicology specialists, including nurses, pharmacists, physicians and poison information providers. In addition, the AAPCC maintains the only poison information and surveillance database in the United States, providing real-time monitoring of unusual poisoning patterns, chemical exposures and other emerging public health hazards. The AAPCC partners with federal agencies such as EPA, HRSA and the CDC, as well as private industry.
