It may have happened when Old Tom Morris was a lad, but in modern times it has not been the norm to find the Open champion playing his warm-up tournament where spectators are allowed to accompany him down the fairways, where the only security is the lock on the gents and where the first prize is, get this, almost 100 times less than he will be competing for next week at Birkdale.
Suffice to say, Padraig Harrington is not your usual Open champion.
Today the Dubliner, who last year at Carnoustie became the first Irishman to win the Claret Jug since 1947, will tee it up in the first round of the Irish PGA Championship at The European Club, 30 miles south of the capital. He will be joined by a selection of club professionals and former Tour players, none of whom are ranked in the world’s top 1000. It is akin to the Derby favourite having his prep race in a Wolverhampton seller.
Harrington will be doing so not out of the goodness of his green heart - although there are few more enthusiastic patriots - but simply to acclimatise to competitive links golf before next week’s test on the Southport coast.
“Playing championship golf always sharpens your game and The European Club is a super links,” explained Harrington yesterday. “It was great preparation for Carnoustie. I feel I had outsmarted everybody by having that four-round competition. I went into that Open feeling I was already one up on the field.”
That is bad news for the Scottish Open - the European Tour event that begins tomorrow on the obviously non-links setting on Loch Lomond - but remarkable news for a tournament that a few years ago must have been worrying about its existence. The Irish PGA Championship used to be an annual stopping point for the island’s finest golfers - Christy O’Connor Snr won it 10 times - but since the rise of the global professional it has found its standing inevitably diminishing by the season. Until, that is, Harrington expressed his interest to prepare at a links tournament last year.
The Irish PGA only too readily offered to change its calendar around to accommodate Harrington and also hurriedly found a links course good enough and a sponsor to make the financial rewards less paltry. This year Ladbrokes have put up half of the 50,000 purse and interest has inevitably increased. As well as Harrington there are fellow Ryder Cup heroes Philip Walton - who yesterday qualified for next week’s Open - and Eamonn Darcy in the field of 120 and organisers are expecting record numbers to turn up.
That will obviously bring its fair share of distractions for Harrington, but he is not at all phased. Indeed, he claims that last year the proximity of the fans actually helped him prevail.
“You can’t beat the spectators on the fairway,” he said. “As I was walking down the 13th fairway in the final round and had just fallen two behind Brendan [McGovern] one of these elderly gentlemen walking just behind me turned to the other and said, ‘It’s really being put to him now, isn’t it? We’ll see what Harrington’s made of now’. I turned and smiled at them and went on to birdie the next three to get myself in the lead.”
Even then he had to conjure another birdie at the last to take the inspired McGovern, a club pro from County Meath, to a play-off.
“The best thing about it is that I won 12,500 and it felt as good as any win I ever had,” Harrington said. “There was no question there were shots at The Open that I was better at because I’d played at The European Club. Without question that extra week on a links course helped me out. And as I only won it in a play-off, it must have won me the Open.”
–Jean van de Velde will make an emotional return at next week’s Open after being one of 12 players out of almost 300 to come through local qualifying yesterday. The Frenchman birdied the last at Hillside in Southport to earn his place at Birkdale. Van de Velde had hoped last year to qualify for Carnoustie, the scene of his spectacular second place finish in 1999, but a virus forced him to miss out.

NPMA offers tips for reducing exposure to mosquito bites
FAIRFAX, Va. — Mosquitoes top the list of summer pest concerns according to research from the National Pest Management Association (NPMA). This summer’s mosquito season is no exception due to reports of increased mosquito populations and West Nile Virus (WNV) activity being reported across the country in as early as March.
"Typically, mosquito season ramps up in June and lasts through fall," said Greg Baumann, vice president of technical services and senior scientist for NPMA. "Due to moist weather conditions and the influx of foreclosed homes, we have seen an early start to mosquito season and anticipate increased mosquito populations as temperatures rise."
Health officials are concerned with mosquitoes spreading WNV, a potentially serious illness transmitted through mosquito bites. To date, thirteen cases of WNV activity affecting humans has been reported in 7 states including Arizona, California, Mississippi, Oklahoma, Tennessee and Texas according to the Center for Disease Control. Human fatalities have yet to be reported. Animal, avian, and mosquito WNV infections have also been reported in more than 10 states.
NPMA offers the following tips for homeowners seeking relief from mosquitoes this summer season:
* To avoid mosquito nesting and breeding sites, eliminate standing water and other sources of moisture in or around the home in flowerpots, water dishes, birdbaths, swimming pool covers, barrels, and other objects that can collect water.
* Keep windows and doors properly screened to keep mosquitoes outside.
* Be alert when outdoors during dawn, dusk and early evening hours when mosquito-biting activity can peak. Also, avoid areas near water where mosquitoes gather, especially during peak activity.
* Avoid wearing dark colors and floral prints, loose-fitting garments, open-toe shoes and sweet-smelling perfumes or colognes.
* Plan ahead for spending time outdoors and wear mosquito repellant with DEET as well as appropriate apparel such as long pants and long-sleeve shirts.

NPMA, a non-profit organization with more than 5,000 members, was established in 1933 and in 2008 celebrates its 75th anniversary supporting the pest management industry’s commitment to the protection of public health, food and property.

MICROCOSM: E.COLI AND THE NEW SCIENCE OF LIFE By Carl Zimmer HEINEMANN, Pounds 20 Order for Pounds 18 (free p&p) on 0870 079 8897
One of the things that makes humans different is our curiosity to poke around in the innards of other creatures. When they first got acquainted with zillions of microscopic bacteria, scientists thought their own innards pretty uninteresting. They were dead wrong.
In this satisfying piece of popular science, Carl Zimmer shows how almost the whole of biology can be unfolded from a tiny, rod- shaped organism first found in soiled nappies a bit over a century ago. Escherichia coli - named after the intrepid nappy-scraper Theodor Escherich - is a normally innocuous dweller in the human gut, and many other places it can get a living. But this minute wonder can sense its surroundings, swim around, and co-operate with its bacterial siblings. It has a kind of sex, on occasion, responds to its environment, is shaped by its history, and tries to fight off attacks from bigger bacteria and much smaller viruses.
As Zimmer relates, E. coli is more than a convenient emblem of life’s ingenuity. It has been the focus of work in a thousand labs, and given up innumerable secrets about the inner workings of the cell. Thanks to E. coli, we know how genes work, how they are regulated, and how their switches and modulators form subtle networks. The beast has given insight into evolution, behaviour and even ecology. Layer by layer, Zimmer shows how the intricate details of a bacterium relate to problems all organisms face.
His book comes from the US, so has to spend a while debunking creationism’s dumber younger brother, intelligent design. This is apt because E. coli’s cunningly assembled flagellum is a prime exhibit in the creationists’ case: that life is equipped with machines which they cannot believe arose by chance. As usual, look properly and you find lots of intermediate forms, all doing something useful - if not propelling their host along. The flagellum, like antibiotic resistance, undoubtedly evolved.
There follows an excursion into the history and politics of genetic engineering, which may not hold the attention of all those gripped by the unpacking of the bacterium’s bag of tricks. There are intriguing scientists there, some beautiful experiments, and medical and industrial developments with high stakes. But the real star of the show remains a tiny, versatile organism which is happily dining off your last meal as you read this.

Hospitals Average 1,000 Accidental Injuries Daily, Can Lead to Life-Threatening Infections; Sharps Injury Prevention Workbook and Tools to Educate Personnel on Best Practices
CHARLOTTE, N.C. — More than 385,000 needlestick and other sharps-related injuries are sustained annually by hospital-based healthcare personnel, according to Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) estimates, with countless others occurring in nursing homes, outpatient clinics, physician offices and emergency care services. These injuries put healthcare workers at risk of becoming infected with life-threatening viruses, such as hepatitis B and C viruses and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV).
The Premier healthcare alliance is collaborating with the CDC on an initiative to eliminate occupational injuries from needlesticks and other sharp objects. As part of this initiative, a comprehensive workbook on sharps injury prevention, along with wall signs and an educational CD-ROM, are being made available to healthcare administrators and staff involved in sharps injury prevention activities.
"For more than three decades, the CDC has been involved in activities related to sharps injury prevention, including analysis of injuries, surveillance and data reporting, safety device analysis, prevention research, and education and training," said Dr. Denise Cardo, director of the CDC’s Division of Healthcare Quality Promotion. "The revised workbook and related educational resources from the CDC are designed to meet our goal of eliminating occupational needlestick injuries."
Key recommendations for successful sharps injury prevention programs in the 2008 workbook revision include:
* Systematic and organization-wide approach to sharps injury prevention;
* Integration into existing performance improvement, infection prevention and control, and safety programs and processes;
* Baseline assessments of sharps injuries, work practices and prevention strategies, organizational safety culture, process for reporting and follow-up for injuries, and process for selection, evaluation and implementation of safety devices;
* Establishment of priorities for action based on assessments, including problem-specific prevention strategies;
* Education and training of workers on all elements of the prevention program, including medical follow-up after an injury; and
* Ongoing assessment of program effectiveness.
"Any healthcare workers who handle sharps, such as hypodermic needles, IV catheters, phlebotomy devices, suture needles, scalpels or lancets, are at risk of accidental needlestick injuries," said Premier Safety Institute vice president Gina Pugliese. "Premier’s goal is to help educate healthcare workers on the risks and how to develop specific strategies and implement safety devices that will eliminate needlestick injuries."
The CDC released the Workbook for Designing, Implementing and Evaluating a Sharps Injury Prevention Program in 2004. The Premier Safety Institute assisted the CDC in their study to evaluate the workbook to determine if it was an effective tool to assist with needlestick elimination. The CDC used feedback from the eight hospitals that participated in the study to improve the 162-page workbook and its tools, including forms to collect data, evaluate devices, document exposure incidents, implement prevention devices and work practices, and assess the organization culture for patient and worker safety.
The CDC developed a special CD-ROM containing the 2008 revision of the workbook along with three educational slide sets, a brochure for healthcare professionals, and a two-minute introductory video by CDC Director Dr. Julie Gerberding. The CD-ROM, wall posters, abstracts from the study hospitals, and a downloadable copy of the 2008 workbook are available from the Premier Safety Institute Web site at www.premierinc.com/safety/.
Premier has a long-standing commitment to worker safety. The Premier Safety Institute launched a publicly accessible Sharps Injury Prevention Web site to provide Web-based tools, resources and education to help healthcare organizations eliminate sharps-related injuries and document their actions required by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration’s Bloodborne Pathogen Standard. A special section of the Premier Safety Institute Web site highlights the CDC’s recent activities and other resources related to needlestick prevention at www.premierinc.com/safety/.

The “Motor City” of America, known for its
legacy of developing fast automobiles, recently saw its city government
email system slow to a crawl, plagued with email servers overrun with spam
and computers infected with viruses. That’s when the City of Detroit Information Technology
Services (ITS) decided to replace their server-based anti-spam solution
with Websense® Hosted Email Security across all 42 City departments.
Almost immediately, City officials saw their spam problem disappear and
communication channels flow freely without system failures.
With more than eight thousand City employees across Detroit employed in
departments including the fire department, Mayor’s office and City police,
Detroit City ITS officials are charged with keeping the City’s technology
systems up and running while adhering to Detroit’s progressive citywide
stance on reducing costs and streamlining processes that are ineffective or
inefficient. Recent budget cuts and staff reductions combined with an
increase in spam comprising nearly 80 percent of email traffic, left City
IT staff scrambling to keep up with the anti-spam server system
maintenance. Overloaded, the servers often went down, frequently stopping
email communication.
“When budget cuts hit our department we were unable to keep up with the
necessary anti-spam server maintenance and almost daily a server would go
down, taking the email system with it,” said Sreenivas Cherukuri, director
of IT services for the City of Detroit. “Complaints across the City were
frequent and we knew we needed to make a change. At first we wanted to try
an appliance we could manage ourselves but when our technology partner OAS
demonstrated Websense Hosted Email Security, and we realized how much
easier it would be to have all traffic run through Websense, we were sold.”
The City of Detroit deployed Websense Hosted Email Security across all 42
departments that reside in more than 140 locations. The results were
immediate. The email system ran smoothly through Websense, system delays
ceased and City employees were pleased.
“In addition to our email system maintenance problem, many City computers
had become infected with viruses and employees’ compromised machines were
inadvertently sending out malware that resulted in City email addresses
getting blacklisted by outside firms,” explained Cherukuri. “This was a
huge problem in that emails were not getting to their intended recipients
and caused an embarrassing public relations issue. Immediately upon
deploying the Websense Hosted system that runs through Websense IP
addresses, our blacklist status was eradicated. Without Websense we would
have had to get off blacklists one by one resulting in hours of staff time.
Standardizing on Websense Hosted Email Security has been a big win for our
department and fits with Mayor Kilpatrick Administration’s vision for
departmental efficiency and effectiveness.”
“Websense Hosted Email security has been a perfect fit for our customer the
City of Detroit,” said Erik Moin, vice president, OAS, a Websense channel
partner. “With Websense, the City of Detroit’s email systems run smoothly,
are free of spam and viruses, and helpdesk calls have dropped
dramatically.”
“Even when faced with IT budgets cuts, IT departments’ need for real
protection does not diminish,” said Leo Cole, vice president of marketing,
Websense. “Websense Hosted Security solutions can relieve IT teams of the
burden of managing their security system, while having the assurance that
their employees and their essential information are secure.”
Websense Hosted Email Security eradicates spam while protecting customers
against viruses, phishing and other malware. The solution also keeps
organizations’ essential information from leaving the organization by
encrypting and protecting outbound sensitive email without the need to
deploy anything at the gateway. All Websense solutions including Websense
Hosted Email Security are powered by the
Websense ThreatSeeker(TM) Network which is designed to continuously
monitor the Internet for changes and emerging threats. The resulting
intelligence is immediately incorporated into the company’s Web security,
email security and data loss prevention solutions. As a result, Websense is
able to adapt to the rapidly changing Internet at speeds not possible by
traditional security solutions.
About Websense, Inc.
Websense, Inc. (NASDAQ: WBSN), a global leader in integrated Web, messaging
and data protection technologies, provides Essential Information
Protection(TM) for more than 42 million employees at more than 50,000
