Each year more than 335,000 people die of SCA (a sudden and abrupt loss of heart function caused by a chaotic heart rhythm disturbance, resulting in death, if not prevented with early defibrillation). Heart rhythm problems that result in SCA are related to the electrical impulses and muscle strength of the heart and can attack anyone of almost any age. Despite best practice efforts, it is estimated that only 20-30% of those that have indication or at risk for SCA are receiving treatment to prevent it. This educational activity will provide the attendee with the knowledge necessary to identify, to treat and/or to refer patients to treatment in order to prevent SCA. Some of the topics to be presented will be an up-to-date review of the causes of SCA, current and future risk stratification for predicting SCA, a current review of genetic predisposition to SCA and therapies available to protect those at risk for SCA. In addition, discussion of various disease states such as congestive heart failure, hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, and their relation to SCA will take place. Racial and gender differences in identification of those at risk for SCA and in statistics regarding survival of SCA will be presented.

CAMT 2009 will be held in Houston, Texas. In Houston, we have a great tradition of being a place of firsts and futuristic endeavors. Houston was the first word spoken from the surface of the moon and as we meet the challenge to bring forward the next generation of firsts, we dedicate this convening of the 56th CAMT 2009 to our future- the best and brightest boys and girls who sit in classrooms across this great state. Their Tomorrow Starts Today- Building a Future takes a Mathematics Foundation, our CAMT 2009 theme captures the essence of what must be accomplished in mathematics education. The CAMT 2009 program goal is to prepare and equip you with the tools and information needed to meet the challenge of educating a generation who live in a world where borders no longer restrain our economies, technologies create new opportunities, and their knowledge and skills base must be broad enough to develop the ability to rethink, retrain, and resolve.

Essentially, we are a support group of other smaller support groups, home-based private schools and individuals, and as such offer unlimited opportunities for serving and encouraging one another. Home Educational Resources and Information, better known as HERI (?hurry?) was established in 1985 to provide support and communication between homeschoolers. Soon after the homeschool law was enacted HERI provided support to home schoolers registering with the superintendents office, as well as those registering with 600 schools. HERI began with the HOME FORUM, its monthly newsletter, which provided a vehicle for communication between homeschoolers. Other services were added as volunteers surfaced and needs became evident. HERI is a non-profit corporation organized for all homeschoolers regardless of race, creed or other homeschooling alliances. HERI is NOT a school, or in any way a legal covering for homeschoolers. Information is provided, but homeschooling parents bear the ultimate responsibility for establishing their homeschool programs within the boundaries of the law. All parents considering homeschooling should thoroughly research and read all guidelines and laws before beginning.
