- Collaborate with the financial services partner, to innovate and offer best in class financial product and great customer experience, for Salauno patients.
- For segments, where market gaps exist, explore and create innovative and sustainable alternative finance models (crowdsourcing like Kiva, NGO funding, Government financing etc), and create a viable ecosystem

He Huan Shan (合歡山, He Huan Mountain), located at the border of
Nantou and Hualien Country, is one of the places you must visit in Taiwan.
Breathtaking view and fresh air, at an altitude of 3,000m above sea level.
He Huan Shan provides a nice break from the unbearable summer heat.
High-mountain cabbage, tea, pear and apple are "must taste" products of this area.
*Stunning view of a cabbage farm
Starting from Kaohsiung, cruising into the mountains,
and heading to Hualien is the classic route we normally take.
It is about 50km from downtown Puli to He Huan Shan (highway #14),
so if you plan to take some time for exploration, we recommend you to
make an overnight stop at Puli, and start your journey next morning.
The highest road pass in Japan is Mt. Fuji Skyline (2,380m), but in Taiwan,
you can climb up to about 1,000m higher than that…amazing!!
If you have a chance to ride/drive around Taiwan, we highly recommend you to visit there.

Beppe di Marco is a fictional character from the BBC soap opera EastEnders, played by Scottish actor Michael Greco. He made his first appearance on 29 January 1998, but was axed by executive producer John Yorke in 2002, with his final scene airing on 4 June 2002.
Beppe is his family's pride and joy, so it is a big shock to them when he is fired from the police force for attempting to frame local hardman Grant Mitchell (Ross Kemp). Beppe is the local heart-throb and he has numerous relationships in Albert Square, which all end in disaster.
Beppe first appears when George Palmer and Peggy Mitchell (Paul Moriarty and Barbara Windsor) attend his father's funeral in January 1998. He moves to Albert Square in February 1998, with the rest of his family: mother Rosa (Louise Jameson), brother Gianni (Marc Bannerman) and sisters Teresa (Leila Birch) and Nicky (Carly Hillman). Beppe's family come to Walford to open an Italian restaurant, while he has built himself a successful career in the police force, progressing through the ranks to the Vice squad.
Beppe is a single father to Joe (Jake Kyprianou). Joe's mother, Sandra (Clare Wilkie) left them when Joe was 10 months old - driven away by Beppe's interfering family, who never forgave her for not being Italian.
Upon his arrival, Beppe instantly clashes with the Mitchell brothers, Phil and Grant (Steve McFadden and Ross Kemp), who are known to dabble on the wrong side of the law and Beppe sees them as trouble makers. Beppe's animosity towards Grant, in particular, increases when he becomes close to Grant's abused wife, Tiffany (Martine McCutcheon). It isn't long before Beppe falls in love with Tiffany and urges her to leave Grant. Beppe confronts Grant in The Queen Victoria public house over his cruelty towards Tiffany and the pair brawl. Tiffany decides to leave Grant after she finds him in bed with her mother Louise (Carol Harrison) and she packs her bags ready to leave with her and Grant's daughter, Courtney. However, just as Tiffany is about to leave, she falls down the stairs, making everyone suspect that Grant pushed her. Beppe is furious and arrests Grant for attempted murder. He also coerces Tiffany to pretend Grant had pushed her in order to keep him locked up. Tiffany does but her conscience gets the better of her and she later writes a letter exonerating Grant of any wrongdoing and instructs her best friend, Bianca (Patsy Palmer), to give it to the police after she leaves. However, she is killed in a car accident, whilst trying to reclaim Courtney from Grant, who has been released on bail. As Tiffany was about to elope with Beppe, he never forgives Grant and when he finds the letter that exonerates him, Beppe burns it. Beppe is subsequently sacked from the police force for withholding evidence and misconduct. When Grant finds out about the letter, he punches Beppe.
Now out of work, Beppe gets a job as a cab driver working for Barry Evans (Shaun Williamson) and embarks on a stormy relationship with Grant's sister, Sam Mitchell (Danniella Westbrook). Sam takes the relationship more seriously than Beppe and becomes extremely jealous of his friendship with his flatmate Nina Harris (Troy Titus-Adams), so their relationship doesn't last long.
In 2000, Beppe becomes a partner with Steve Owen (Martin Kemp) and starts managing his nightclub, The E20. His police contacts come in handy soon after when drugs are found in the club and he manages to persuade them to turn a blind eye.
Also that year, Sandra returns, wanting to see her son. Although she is met with hostility at first, she and Beppe soon become closer and eventually rekindle their romance, much to his family's disgust. Because of his ties, he decides to stay in Walford when the family move away. Beppe is still in love with Sandra and soon wants to discuss having more children, Sandra flatly refuses. Soon after, Beppe's old vice-squad partner, Jack Robbins (Chook Sibtain), arrives, looking for Sandra. It turns out that Sandra had been involved with Jack for years. She left him following a miscarriage that left her unable to have children. Sandra tries to deny her feelings for Jack, but eventually she admits that she is still in love with him and only reconciled with Beppe so she can get custody of her son. She and Jack reignite their romance and Sandra makes plans to leave with Jack and Joe. However, Beppe catches them just as they are about to leave and when he realizes what is going on, he attacks Jack, takes Joe back and denies Sandra access. Sandra and Jack subsequently threaten to fight Beppe for custody of Joe. Beppe retaliates by using his police contacts to plant drugs on Jack, getting him sacked from the force. The constant rowing is having a negative effect on Joe and he struggles to choose between his parents. This culminates in him getting hit by a car when he disobeys his father and runs across the road to be with his mother. Joe is not seriously hurt but the accident makes his parents rethink their behaviour. Beppe allows Sandra access and she leaves the following year.
In 2001, before Steve is killed in a car accident, Beppe buys his share and becomes sole owner of the club, a massive shock to Steve's wife Mel (Tamzin Outhwaite), as she thought she was the sole owner. During this period, Beppe spends his time having sex with anonymous women and dumping them when he gets bored. He even contracts a minor STD. Beppe becomes close to Lynne Slater (Elaine Lordan), who regularly babysits Joe whilst he is working, and she points out the error of his ways. Beppe falls for Lynne and attempts to stop her marrying Garry Hobbs (Ricky Groves), but although Lynne is tempted, she goes ahead with the marriage.
In 2002, Beppe gets news that his mother has died of a heart attack, which prompts him to sell the club to Sharon Watts (Letitia Dean) and leaves Walford to tend to his grieving family.
Character creation and development[edit]
The Italian di Marco family were introduced early in 1998 by Series Producer Jane Harris.[1] The di Marcos were a family of eight, consisting of grandparents Bruno and Luisa (Leon Lissek and Stella Tanner), their daughter-in-law Rosa, her children Beppe, Gianni, Teresa and Nicky, and Beppe's young son Joe.[2] They were heralded as the "family that would rival the Mitchells", one of the most successful and long-running families to have been featured in EastEnders.[3]
According to author Rupert Smith, the di Marcos "landed with an almighty thud in January [1998], turning out in force for the funeral of patriarch Giuseppe", who was Rosa's husband and an old business associate of the character George Palmer.[4] The following month, the family moved to the area in which the soap is set, Walford, to run an Italian restaurant, which was named Giuseppe's.[5]
The di Marcos remained with the show as a unit until 2000, when the new executive producer, John Yorke, decided to cull the majority of the family.[6] All except Beppe and his son Joe were written out.[7] They were reportedly "slaughtered because of a shortage of ideas for what to do with them".[3] A source allegedly told The Mirror: "It's always unpleasant having to say goodbye to people who have given loyal service to the show for a number of years. But John Yorke feels it's time to make his mark on the show. Every new producer likes to do the same. John wants to introduce a new family later this year and felt the Di Marcos had nowhere else to go. Their storylines were beginning to feel tired and that's a good time to make such a drastic change."[8] However an official BBC spokesperson at the time commented: "These changes […] are just part of [John Yorke's] plans to revamp the series and give it a new look."[9] The cuts paved the way for the arrival of the popular Slater family.[10] Beppe and Joe remained until 2002, when they were axed too.[11]
The di Marcos are now deemed as something of a failure for EastEnders. Since their departure, the family has even been mocked in an EastEnders official book, entitled EastEnders 20 Years In Albert Square. In the book, the author, Rupert Smith, writes :"Nobody really knew what to do with the di Marco family, who had been languishing in the pizza restaurant without a decent storyline between them. Finally, there was nothing else for it: the di Marcos would have to go. All of them…it was as if they'd never been".[4]
Matthew Baylis of The Guardian has commented on their lack of success: "Thank heaven for off-screen uncles. As we saw during the hurried departure of the di Marco family from Albert Square, there's nothing like a fictitious relative when you need to get characters off the screen…The di Marcos' departure had its dodgy elements. A hitherto unheard-of uncle needs help in his restaurant, so the whole family ups sticks. Including Teresa - who'd always fought for independence from her family? Rosa, who presumably owned the house she'd transformed into something resembling an Imperial Palace, is suddenly prepared to leg it with a couple of suitcases? There was plenty that didn't ring true. But few viewers minded. There was, if anything, more sympathy for the programme-makers, trying valiantly to dispose of this singularly unpopular family while retaining an element of drama."[12]
The di Marcos have been dismissed as "unconvincing characters".[12] Baylis goes on to highlight a problem that he feels "dogged the whole family", their occupation as restaurateurs. Baylis believes this kept them "self-contained", and prevented them from establishing meaningful links with other characters. He explains: "[The di Marcos] had an ambiguity, heightened by the job they did. Soapland has no place for grey areas. Bad things happen to bad people. They also happen to good people, of course, but not for very long. To make this predictable universe work on the screen, you need characters who are relatively stable (even if they are unstable). The writers and the viewers buy into a myth that people aren't particularly complex, that the full range of their feelings and actions can be revealed in a few hours on the TV. And a quick, visible way of revealing characters is to mirror them in their occupation. Thus we have Pauline Fowler, long-suffering drudge and matriarch. What better job than folding pants all day in the launderette? Or Peggy [Mitchell] - tough but fun-loving and gregarious. So she runs the pub. But what attributes spring to mind when we think of Italian restaurants? Fond of pasta, perhaps? Permanently overworked? The job never provided an easy route into understanding the di Marcos' characters…The most visible jobs tend to be taken by the strongest, most vivid characters. Confined to their restaurant, the di Marcos could only become involved in Walford life when other characters came over to eat a carbonara. And how often do working-class East End people do that? If any di Marco wanted a night out, a pint in the Vic, a clandestine liaison, then an excuse had to be found as to why they weren't working. Transforming Giuseppe's into a daytime sandwich bar, and sending Teresa onto the market were bold rescue attempts, but they came too late. The viewers had already decided they didn't much care…Because of their jobs, the di Marcos became a largely self-contained unit…"[12]
Other appearances[edit]
The character of Beppe di Marco has been spoofed in the cartoon sketch show 2DTV, as well as impersonated by Alistair McGowan on his show, The Big Impression. In spite of his non-existence in real life, he was reported by a British newspaper as being in the womanising circuit with comedian Russell Brand on the last series of Big Brother's Big Mouth in 2006, something that Brand satirised in his live show.[citation needed]
In August 2015, it was announced that Greco would reprise the role of Beppe in an eight-part television mockumentary called British Andy.[13]

Not feeling overjoyed to go to work each morning? You're not alone. According to a Gallup Study performed between 2011 and 2012, only 13% of employees are "engaged" at work, and a whopping 63 are "not engaged."
In many cases, these feelings are warning signs that flash before us, urging us to make a change, uncover what it is that our heart is truly called to do, or take the leap toward pursuing our passion.
In some cases, however, we find ourselves lacking joy and feeling unengaged even while doing work that is an expression of our purpose in the world.
In these cases, a few small shifts can help to make you feel more alive, more engaged, and more connected to your work.
1. Replace "I have to" with "I choose to."
How many times do you find yourself stating....
"I have to work late."
"I have to finish a big report."
"I have to go out of town this week."
If you're like most people, it's pretty often. These statements are problematic for two reasons. First, they remove all sense of personal choice. And second, they have the potential to quickly spiral into a place of workplace heroism, where we find ourselves in a place of comparison with others about all the things we have to do.
For the next week, try replacing "I have to" with "I choose to." Because in almost all cases, it's the truth. We choose to be employed, we choose to say yes to taking the job, we choose to write the report, and we choose to get on the airplane.
Practice this subtle yet powerful shift in language, and notice the impact.
2. Find the bright spots.
It can be all too easy to get caught up with - and sometimes, even partially obsessed with - the things we don't like about our job. The burdensome process of submitting our travel time and expenses, the fact that we all have to be in the office for the weekly sales meeting, the fact that we can't roll over our vacation days - the list goes on.
As we focus more and more on those things, we often lose sight of the good stuff - the things we actually love about the company, the things that led us to take the job in the first place, the things that cheer us up even during a really stressful day.
Make a list of all the bright spots about your job.
Include everything from the mission of the company, to your coworker who always makes you laugh, to the fact that you can wear jeans once a month, to the things you truly enjoy doing throughout your day.
Take a moment to update your list at the end of each workday.
3. Express gratitude.
Most of us have heard a lot about the incredible effects of gratitude on health, happiness, and success. Expressing gratitude can increase our overall level of wellbeing, it can help us live longer, and it can make us more successful in the workplace.
Much of the gratitude research out there focuses on individual practices such as a gratitude journal. While I fully support this idea and have witnessed the impact both personally and for many of my clients, I propose taking it a step further - especially in the workplace.
Once a week, take time to express gratitude to at least one person you work with. This could be in the form of an email, a hand-written note, a phone call, or an in-person visit.
Sincerely express to your co-worker what you're grateful for, and why. You'll be amazed at the impact this has both on you, and on the recipient.
I'd love to hear from you in the comments- what are the things you do that keep you feeling engaged and alive in the workplace?

Philip, Prince Consort
10 June 1921 at 21:46 (= 9:46 PM )Corfu, Greece, 39n40, 19e42
Source Notes
British Astrological Association quotes official bulletin, 11/1972. The biography, "The Queen," says that he was born on a dining room table in Corfu, Phillipos Schleswig Holstein Sonderburg Glucksberg.
In Roger Elliot's "Astrology and the Royal Family," 1977, data are lacking but the map also has a setting sun. Greece adopted the Gregorian calendar on July 28, 1916 though orthodox churches did so only on October 14, 1923. Therefore, May 28, 1921 OS is correct.
Charles Harvey wrote, "June 10, 1921, 10:00 AM was recorded by his father, King Andrew, in November or December after the birth. He also wrote October 21, 1921 as OS. His memory may not have been fresh, as the attending nanny wrote a biography in which she said that the sun was setting.
(Formerly, Church of Light quotes Tucker in 8/1965 for 10:05 AM EET. Baird had 11:04 PM LMT from Ziegler. Penfield quotes Denis Judd, "Prince Philip," for May 28, 1921 OS, June 10, 1921 NS, 10:00 AM, birth recorded in Greek Old Style.)

The New Kraft Beer, Smiling Toad
A new brewery will be making its debut today at Feast of Saint Arnold. However, if you stop by their booth you will come across familiar beers and faces. Smiling Toad took over Kraft Beer's location on East Bijou the beginning of this month when former owner Kevin Beity's licensing was handed over to Biff Morehead. When the switch was finally official and new logos in place I made sure to stop by and chat with Biff.
|Brewer Mark Wiebe sporting hisnew Smiling Toad attire.
"My story is pretty much the same as all brewery owners. Starting with a passion for beer with taste, I graduated to making my own home brew and have decided to continue with the next step, owning a brew business."
|Bella Lavendar Lager will be one of the beerspoured today at Feast of St. Arnold.
If you haven't been by, their 900 sq ft, 1/2 BBL nanobrewery is a nice escape from other busy beer spots around town. Something makes the beer a lot more personable when you know every time you stop in the person who made it will be in the tap room to chat up their latest brewing adventures. Working alongside Biff is his wife, Patti, and brewer, Mark Wiebe. Although Kevin Baity isn't a part of the operations anymore. However, you can still catch him or his wife in the tap room grabbing a pint or offering up advice for the new owners. Mondays are their brew days, and often there are several other craft loving brewers lending a hand any chance they get. "I almost feel bad. Almost," said Biff about getting so much help from everyone in the brewing community.The beers are mostly staying the same at first. The biggest change you will see is a brand new 3 BBL system from Stout Tanks and Kettles of Oregon that is projected to be delivered this Monday. With the new system they are hoping to better be able to keep up with the flagship beers that people have come to love. Smiling Toad is planning on keeping their 1/2 BBL system in order to start brewing smaller batch beers they have never had time for in the past. This is exciting news for the brewery, and I look forward to what is to come.Check out Smiling Toad on Facebook.- - -Stay updated with our email updates and like us on Facebook.

So today I weighed in at 133.6! That is 3.6 pounds from the healthy goal weight that I set for myself. My weight range for my height is 150-125. I started this journey at 152.6, which is 2.6 pounds above the healthy range range for a woman who is 5'5″. 130 is a healthy weight I believe I can manage. I am setting my goal for Valentine's Day, but it may take a bit longer. I swear, once you get closer to goal, it seems to take forever!
When I got home I decided I needed some relaxation from this house building/contract negotiating stuff, so I turned it to Exercise TV on Demand. I am so happy I found this channel because it gives you free workouts. I decided to do a 20 minute yoga routine called "Zen in Your Den." It was so relaxing and really put my mind at ease.
I had a cup of peppermint tea after yoga and painted my toe nails. The benefits of peppermint tea are amazing. The University of Maryland Medical Center wrote an article about peppermint and it's health benefits. You can check it out at the end of the post…
Tea is also something nice to have to warm you up. Warm liquids such as tea and soup warm you up and make you feel full. I often take soup to work and this trick really works.
Around 1:30pm, we met with the mortgage broker today and signed the paperwork for our loan application. Whew! I felt like my signature should be shortened after all of that. I am excited about the house, but tired of all the legal stuff.
We went Mellow Mushroom with Brandon's (the husband) cousin and his fiance. It is my favorite pizza place. I could live on their crust alone. I ate four pieces! Don't freak out, I always do and still lose. Pizza is not something I will give up on or reduce the amount. Especially at Mellow Mushroom! We didn't eat much today so we really ate well tonight. That's what weekly points are for 🙂
As far as the rest of the weekend goes, I have a few more recipes that I need to post and I am getting so tired I am about to pass out. Hopefully, I will get to those tomorrow. Hope everyone had a good Saturday!

Here is one reason George W. Bush is the most unpopular president in U.S. history: He's an incompetent dope who is incapable of learning from his mistakes. Oh, and also, he has a stubborn, constipated view of life and the world. President 70%-Disapproval-Ratings proved his worth again yesterday when he chose a visit to a foreign country - speaking before that country's legislative body, no less - to deliver an attack on domestic political foes. President Screw-Up chose an address to the Israeli Knesset to launch his unashamedly partisan, not to mention historically dead wrong, attack on those who think diplomacy should play a part in American foreign policy. You know -- the way U.S. foreign policy has been conducted by pretty much every president until President National Disaster took office.
Much has been said about BushLeague's Knesset rantings (my favorite comment was Sen. Joe Biden's immediate reply, "That's bullshit"), so I'll only point out that when President Lame Duck used the term "appeasement" - referring to concessions made to Hitler after his invasion of Czechoslovakia - he was, essentially, abusing historical facts. It wasn't "appeasement" for the British and others to sit down and talk with Germany - the appeasement came when THEY GAVE HITLER PART OF CZECHOSLOVAKIA! There's a huge difference between talking to your enemies and giving them whatever they want. The question now is, "How stupid do you have to be in order not to grasp such a fundamental difference?"
ONE MORE ITEM: I'm not a visual arts critic by any means, but I have always been enthralled by the work of Robert Rauschenberg, and was sad to see that the wildly inventive artist had died this week. David Byrne wrote a nice piece in today's New York Times about Rauschenberg, and here's a link to it.

Trauma-Informed Care and Practice in Mental Health Services
Project Goals
The aim of the Trauma-Informed Care and Practice (TICP) in Mental Health Services project is to improve the experience of care for consumers, families and staff through the provision of TICP in mental health services.
- To understand the current state of TICP in mental health services.
- To identify and define key principles of TICP to support implementation in mental health services across NSW.
- To develop evidence-based resources and strategies to support implementation of TICP .
- To share best practice initiatives in NSW.
The case for change
What is trauma?
Trauma is defined as an event, series of events or set of circumstances that are experienced as physically or emotionally harmful or life threatening. Trauma can result in acute and/or ongoing adverse effects, distress or disruption to the individual's life. This many lead to a disruption of overall functioning, mental, physical, social, emotional or spiritual wellbeing. This definition was adapted from the SAMHSA's Concept of Trauma and Guidance for a Trauma-Informed Approach.1
What is TICP ?
TICP is a strengths-based approach which understands and responds to the impact of trauma. The elements include realising the prevalence and impacts of trauma, recognising how trauma has affected the person, responding by putting this into practice and ensuring that care does not re-traumatise.1
Did you know?
Trauma can affect many aspects of an individual's life. For mental health consumers, trauma has the potential to influence one's social, emotional and physical wellbeing.
One of largest international studies on TICP is the 'Adverse Childhood Experiences' (ACE) study.2
The study found that:
- nearly two out of three people had at least one adverse experience in childhood
- with six or more adverse experiences in childhood people die up to 20 years earlier than the general population
- experiencing depression and being at risk of suicide increases with adverse experiences
- the risk of drug and alcohol dependence increases with experiencing trauma.
Research has found that:
- childhood trauma is the single most significant predictor that an individual will have contact with the mental health system3,4
- nine out of 10 people accessing mental health services have experienced trauma at some stage in their life5,6,7,8
- two in three people presenting at emergency, inpatient or outpatient mental health settings have experienced underlying complex trauma secondary to childhood physical or sexual abuse9
- experiencing trauma can influence brain development which may lead to problems with mood, self-esteem, emotions, learning and memory10
- the risk of experiencing seclusion, restraint and enforced medication in mental health units is increased with trauma experience11,12
- experiencing trauma leads to an increased chance of developing a psychotic disorder.
Benefits of a TICP approach
Services where TICP is implemented have been shown to provide benefits for consumers, service providers and organisations by:
- improving the overall experiences of care for consumers12
- enhancing the relationship between consumer and caregiver13,14,15
- supporting the transparency and predictability of mental healthcare15
- reducing the use of seclusion, restraint and enforced medication11,16
- decreasing staff injuries, turnover and sick leave.14
Project update
More than 100 consumer and 500 clinician/practitioner responses were received from the recent Trauma-Informed Care and Practice in Mental Health Services survey. The survey results will now be analysed and inform the next steps, which will include a number of consumer and clinician focus groups, interviews with senior clinicians/managers and site visits to mental health services across the state.

Welcome to the Obstetrics and Gynecology Residency Program at Howard University! We are pleased that you are considering Howard University Hospital (HUH) for your postgraduate training.
Our residency is an academic training program within a University Teaching hospital, offering an environment for residents to complete their training with the highest levels of personal and professional growth.
The residency training program in Obstetrics and Gynecology is a University based 4 year ACGME – accredited postgraduate residency program in Obstetrics and Gynecology with a total of 16 residents. We have a complement of four residents per year for four years of training. The OB/GYN Residency Training Program is primarily at Howard University Hospital (HUH), a 482-bed tertiary referral center that is committed to excellence in innovative patient care, teaching and research. It is an integrated program consisted of rotations at Holy Cross Hospital, Providence Hospital, the National Institutes of Health (NIH), Maryland IVF Fertility Health and the Women's Wellness Center.
Although our residents are trained in all aspects of Obstetrics and Gynecology, we stress the importance of the Obstetrician/Gynecologist as the primary care provider for women. Our faculty is committed to building a solid knowledge base and assisting in the development of the resident's core competencies in the areas of clinical, surgical and teaching skills. Additional areas of core competencies include progressive scholarship and continued professional growth. We believe that these areas of learning are critical and imperative to superior performance in the postgraduate years, regardless of whether our residents remain in academic programs, private practice or continue into a fellowship or research program.
As part of their training and learning experience, residents are expected to teach each other but also supervise and teach the Howard University medical students.
Our residents possess independent initiative, enthusiasm, creativity and scholarly talents to excel in our field. The goal of the residency training program is to introduce physicians who have a solid knowledge base and excellent clinical skills to be leaders in our field, regardless of the type of practice they pursue. Our graduates matriculate from the program with the necessary skills to not only excel in patient care but also participate in research and educate. We do so with a very structured training program that emphasizes the learning aspects of our discipline with the appropriate amount of service work. The support staff allows physicians to maximize their time spent learning and minimize the extracurricular work ("scut").
Our field is an ever changing field and we have remained very proactive in our approach to resident education. We constantly evaluate our training program and make the necessary adjustments to continue to be on the "cutting edge" of resident education. We are constantly searching for ways to improve and consider the resident input paramount to this process.
All rotations are divided into 4 week blocks. A night float schedule is used to ensure that residents are only on call 2-3 times per month (rare exceptions apply).
Obstetrics (12 weeks)
Gynecology (12 weeks)
Surgical Intensive Care Unit (4 weeks)

Houston Truck Accidents in Quarter 1 of 2017
Truck Accidents Resulting in Death
Truck Accidents Resulting in Injury
Total Semi Truck Accidents
Semi-Truck Accident Statistics for the State of Texas
Below is a chart showing the total number of truck accidents in the entire state of Texas between 2010 and 2016. We've seen a steady increase in truck accidents over the last six years, with just less that 15,000 in 2010 and almost 22,000 in 2016. That's an increase of 47%! Texas is gaining more residents and thus, more drivers. With more drivers on the road, there's a higher risk for accidents. It is more important now than ever to stay focused while driving and keep away from dangerous activiites like speeding and texting while driving.
This next chart shows the trend of 18-wheeler accidents that resulted in death. Once again we saw a steady increase the number of deaths from truck accidents between 2010 and 2016. With 269 deaths in 2010 and 375 in 2016, an increase of 39%. This is to be expected though with the rising number of crashes shown in the previous chart.
Semi-Truck Accident Statistics for Houston Metropolitan Area
Below is a chart showing the total number of truck accidents in the Houston area alone. The statistics here seem to follow suit with the previous two charts showing another rise in total accidents throughout Houston. In 2010 there were 1,542 accidents, while in there were 3,145 in 2016. That's more than double in just six years!
The next chart shows the trend of 18-wheeler accidents that resulted in death. Thankfully, we didn't see the same trend as with other charts. We saw the same number in 2010 and 2016 with only some minor increases and decreases in the years in between.
Months When Most Accidents Take Place
The data here shows that one of the most dangerous months for accidents is October with an average of almost 1,700 accidents. January saw the least amount of accidents with an average of 1,475 accidents. It is also worth noting that February is the second most dangerous month with an average of 1,650 accidents, just shy of October. That being said, the state of Texas doesn't really a season that is more dangerous than the other. This is mostly due to the fact that the state of Texas enjoys a warmer climate for most of the year and doesn't generally experience snow and ice.
Most Dangerous Holiday
The data from TXDOT indicates that the most dangerous holiday when it comes to Semi-Truck accidents is New Years Eve. There were an average of 43 accidents on this holiday between 2010 and 2016. On average, 5 of those accidents resulted in injury, and 0.4 of them resulted in death. In conclusion, we found that holidays were actually some of the safest days to drive for truck drivers. We believe this is because trucking is a job and many truckers take this time to be at home with their families.
Where Truck Accidents Take Place
The map below shows where fatal truck accidents have taken place between 2010 and the first quarter of 2017. A large majority of the truck accidents that occur in Texas happen in the large metropolitan areas of Houston, Dallas, and San Antonio. In this map of accidents in Houston, we see that a large number of these occur on Interstates 64 and 610. This is because semi-trucks are found more oftenly on the interstate than they are driving around the city itself.

Bitshares Cluster Software: The Affluence Network: Your Wealth is in The Cloud
We would like to thank you for coming to our website in search of "Bitshares Cluster Software" online. Mining cryptocurrencies is how new coins are put into circulation. Because there's no government control and crypto coins are digital, they cannot be printed or minted to produce more. The mining process is what creates more of the coin. It may be useful to think about the mining as joining a lottery group, the pros and cons are exactly the same. Mining crypto coins means you'll really get to keep the full rewards of your efforts, but this reduces your chances of being successful. Instead, joining a pool means that, overall, members will have a higher potential for solving a block, but the benefit will be divided between all members of the pool, based on the amount of "shares" won.
If you are considering going it alone, it is worth noting the software settings for solo mining can be more complex than with a swimming pool, and beginners would be probably better take the latter course. This alternative also creates a secure stream of revenue, even if each payment is modest compared to entirely block the reward. Cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin, LiteCoin, Ether, The Affluence Network, and many others have already been designed as a non-fiat currency. In other words, its backers contend that there is "real" worth, even through there is absolutely no physical representation of that worth. The worth increases due to computing power, that's, is the lone way to create new coins distributed by allocating CPU power via computer programs called miners. Miners create a block after a time frame that's worth an ever diminishing amount of money or some form of wages to be able to ensure the deficit. Each coin consists of many smaller components. For Bitcoin, each unit is called a satoshi. Once created, each Bitcoin (or 100 million satoshis) exists as a cipher, which is part of the block that gave rise to it. The blockchain is where the public record of trades resides. Most all cryptocurrencies function as Bitcoin does.
The fact that there is little evidence of any increase in the utilization of virtual money as a currency may be the reason why there are minimal efforts to control it. The reason for this could be merely that the marketplace is too small for cryptocurrencies to warrant any regulatory effort. It's also possible that the regulators just don't understand the technology and its consequences, anticipating any developments to act. In the case of a fully-functioning cryptocurrency, it might also be exchanged like a product. Proponents of cryptocurrencies say that kind of personal money is not handled by way of a central bank system and it is not therefore susceptible to the whims of its inflation. Because there are a minimal number of items, this coinis price is founded on market forces, enabling owners to trade over cryptocurrency trades. Here is the coolest thing about cryptocurrencies; they don't physically exist everywhere, not even on a hard drive. When you take a look at a special address for a wallet containing a cryptocurrency, there is no digital information held in it, like in exactly the same manner a bank could hold dollars in a bank account. It really is nothing more than a representation of value, but there is no actual tangible type of that value. Cryptocurrency wallets may not be confiscated or immobilized or audited by the banks and the law. They would not have spending limits and withdrawal constraints enforced on them. No one but the person who owns the crypto wallet can determine how their wealth will be managed.
Bitshares Cluster Software – The Affluence Network: One Coin to Rule Them All…
For most users of cryptocurrencies it isn't crucial to comprehend how the procedure functions in and of itself, but it's simply crucial that you comprehend that there is a process of mining to create virtual money. Unlike monies as we know them today where Governments and banks can just choose to print endless numbers (I 'm not saying they are doing so, just one point), cryptocurrencies to be managed by users using a mining program, which solves the advanced algorithms to release blocks of monies that can enter into circulation. Many people prefer to use a money deflation, notably individuals who desire to save. Despite the criticism and disbelief, a cryptocurrency coin may be better suited for some uses than others. Fiscal privacy, for instance, is amazing for political activists, but more debatable when it comes to political campaign funding. We need a steady cryptocurrency for use in commerce; if you're living paycheck to paycheck, it'd happen within your riches, with the remainder allowed for other currencies. You've probably noticed this many times where you typically distribute the nice word about crypto. "It is not unpredictable? What happens when the value crashes? " sofar, many POS devices gives free transformation of fiat, relieving some issue, but before volatility cryptocurrencies is addressed, a lot of people will be unwilling to hold any. We must find a method to struggle the volatility that is inherent in cryptocurrencies. Ethereum is an unbelievable cryptocurrency platform, however, if growth is too quickly, there may be some issues. If the platform is adopted immediately, Ethereum requests could grow drastically, and at a rate that surpasses the rate with which the miners can create new coins. Under such a scenario, the whole platform of Ethereum could become destabilized due to the raising costs of running distributed applications. In turn, this could dampen interest Ethereum platform and ether. Instability of demand for ether can lead to a negative change in the economical parameters of an Ethereum based company that may result in company being unable to continue to manage or to discontinue operation. The physical Internet backbone that carries data between the various nodes of the network is currently the work of several companies called Internet service providers (ISPs), including companies that provide long distance pipelines, sometimes at the international level, regional local pipe, which ultimately joins in families and businesses. The physical connection to the Internet can only occur through any of these ISPs, players like degree 3, Cogent, and IBM AT&T. Each ISP manages its own network. Internet service providers Exchange IXPs, owned or private businesses, and sometimes by Authorities, make for each of these networks to be interconnected or to transfer messages across the network. Many ISPs have agreements with providers of physical Internet backbone providers to offer Internet service over their networks for "last mile"-consumers and companies who need to get Internet connectivity. Internet protocols, followed by everyone in the network causes it to be possible for the info to flow without interruption, in the right spot at the right time.
While none of these organizations "possesses" the Internet collectively these businesses determine how it works, and recognized rules and standards that everyone remains. Contracts and legal framework that underlies all that is happening to ascertain how things work and what happens if something bad happens. To get a domain name, for instance, one needs consent from a Registrar, which has a contract with ICANN. To connect to the Internet, your ISP must be physical contracts with providers of Internet backbone services, and suppliers have contracts with IXPs from the Internet backbone for connecting to and with her. Concern over security dilemmas? A working group is formed to work on the issue and the solution developed and deployed is in the interest of most parties. If the Internet is down, you have someone to call to get it mended. If the difficulty is from your ISP, they in turn have contracts in position and service level agreements, which govern the manner in which these problems are resolved.
The advantage of cryptocurrency is that it uses blockchain technology. The network of nodes the make up the blockchain isn't governed by any centered firm. No one can tell the miners to update, speed up, slow down, stop or do anything. And that is something that as a dedicated advocate badge of honor, and is identical to the way the Internet works. But as you comprehend now, public Internet governance, normalities and rules that govern how it works current inherent problems to the consumer. Blockchain technology has none of that. When searching forBitshares Cluster Software, there are many things to consider.

So if you are attempting to do something prohibited, it's not recommended because everything is recorded in the public register for the remainder of the world to see forever. Since one of the oldest forms of earning money is in cash financing, it is a fact you could do that with cryptocurrency. Most of the lending websites currently focus on Bitcoin, many of these websites you're required fill in a captcha after a specific period of time and are rewarded with a small quantity of coins for visiting them. You can visit the www.cryptofunds.co site to locate some lists of of these websites to tap into the money of your choice. Unlike forex, stocks and options, etc., altcoin markets have very different dynamics. New ones are constantly popping up which means they don't have a lot of market data and historical view for you to backtest against. Most altcoins have somewhat poor liquidity as well and it is hard to think of an acceptable investment strategy. Cryptocurrency is freeing individuals to transact money and do business on their terms. Each user can send and receive payments in an identical way, but in addition they take part in more complicated smart contracts. Multiple signatures enable a transaction to be supported by the network, but where a certain number of a defined group of folks agree to sign the deal, blockchain technology makes this possible. This permits innovative dispute mediation services to be developed in the foreseeable future. These services could enable a third party to approve or reject a transaction in the event of disagreement between the other parties without checking their money. Unlike cash and other payment systems, the blockchain always leaves public proof that a transaction happened. This can be potentially used in an appeal against companies with deceptive practices. Just a fraction of bitcoins issued so far can be found on the exchange markets. Bitcoin markets are competitive, this means the price a bitcoin will rise or fall depending on supply and demand. Many people hoard them for long term savings and investment. This limits the amount of bitcoins that are really circulating in the exchanges. Moreover, new bitcoins will continue to be issued for decades to come. Therefore, even the most diligent buyer couldn't purchase all present bitcoins. This situation is just not to suggest that markets usually are not vulnerable to price manipulation, yet there is no need for large sums of money to move market prices up or down. The smallest events on earth economy can affect the price of Bitcoin, This can make Bitcoin and any other cryptocurrency volatile. Bitcoin is the primary cryptocurrency of the internet: a digital money standard by which all other coins are compared to. Cryptocurrencies are distributed, worldwide, and decentralized. Unlike traditional fiat currencies, there is no authorities, banks, or any other regulatory agencies. Therefore, it really is more immune to outrageous inflation and corrupt banks. The advantages of using cryptocurrencies as your method of transacting cash online outweigh the protection and privacy threats. Security and seclusion can easily be attained by simply being clever, and following some basic guidelines. You wouldn't set your whole bank ledger online for the word to see, but my nature, your cryptocurrency ledger is publicized. This can be fixed by removing any identity of ownership in the wallets and therefore keeping you anonymous. If you are looking for Bitshares Cluster Software, look no further than The Affluence Network.
Bitshares Cluster Software: The Coin of The People – The Affluence Network
It was in the year 2008 when the first cryptocurrency was created. This was the digital currency referred to as Bitcoin. There are distinct from common currency we know. This is only because they are not commanded by any country or authorities. They don't go through any third party. It was a tremendous breakthrough in the means of exchange. In addition, it brought tremendous remedies to the issues of identity theft online. Trades go through several parties as a way of creating trust, but nowadays it's possible to create trust through creation of a complicated code by a single party. It is certainly possible, but it must be able to understand opportunities irrespective of market conduct. The market moves in relation to price BTC … So even if it's in a BTC trend down can make money by purchasing the altcoins which are altcoin oversold trading ratios-BTC. Sure, your purchasing power in DOLLARS may be lower, but as long as your purchasing power in BTC is still growing you'll be ok. It should be difficult to get more little increases (~ 10%) throughout the day. Study how to read these Candlestick charts! And I discovered these two rules to be true: having modest increases is more lucrative than trying to resist up to the summit. Most day traders follow Candlestick, so it is better to examine publications than wait for order confirmation when you believe the price is going down. Second, there is more volatility and reward in monies that haven't made it to the profitability of websites like Coinwarz. Entrepreneurs in the cryptocurrency movement may be wise to explore possibilities for making gigantic ammonts of money with various forms of internet marketing.There could be a rich reward for anyone daring enough to endure the cryptocurrency marketplaces.Bitcoin design provides an informative example of how one might make lots of money in the cryptocurrency marketplaces. Bitcoin is an incredible intellectual and technical accomplishment, and it has created an avalanche of editorial coverage and venture capital investment opportunities. But very few people understand that and miss out on quite lucrative business models made accessible due to the growing use of blockchain technology.

When my mom reads this she might scoff, but I really love organized spaces. I live by the mantra one can never have enough stuff holders and might subscribe to the buzzfeed organizational newsletter; don't judge me. But when it comes to packing, organization sometimes gets thrown out of the window. You may have a packing list and everything gets nicely folded in, but after digging out your day one outfit, it somehow ends up resembling a Tiny Homes episode of hoarders. Or, at least, that was my experience. I used to blame it on my bags. There's just not a good way to pack a backpack or weekender where you can get to any one thing without messing everything else up.
But, this long rant is now officially OVER because this problem is a thing of the past. Enter the solution: PACKING CUBES.
After seeing them a couple of times on travel blogs with a price tag of a bajillion dollars, I wrote them off and frankly forgot about them. But after seeing them in the extremely reasonably priced store, MINISO (a blog post in itself), I packed up a set for myself and got hooked.
I put them to the test on our long vacation where we saw Chengdu, travelled on the Yangtze and hiked in the Avatar mountains. I packed for all this in my favorite oversized brown leather weekender and was amazed at the result. Where before everything got jumbled up before I even arrived at a location, now I was able to find my pants in my pants cube, my sweaters in my smaller cube, sweaters and jackets in the largest cube and assorted necessities in the mysteriously labelled "secret pouch" (thanks MINISO).
After being so amazed at how it kept things organized over a 10-day trip, I stocked up at Miniso and now have 2 sets of the 3-cube-1-secret-pouch version and the matching toiletry case because for equivalent $2.80 I thought, why not?
I used them on our anniversary trip to Sanya and laid out the contents of my bag to show you how it all works. Basically, I packed all my big clothes in the large cube, a beach blanket in the mid-size cube, some larger toiletry esque things in the smallest bag. Things that were large enough not to get lost were allowed to stay loose like my vacuum flask and kendama (the wooden toy thingy).
Since it was a shorter trip, I also offered to let Alex use a set. His experience with the packing cubes went something like this. He packed his clothes in the large cube, asked if I put his khaki shorts in the dirty clothes, heard a negative, checked the dirty clothes basket anyway, checked the washer, accused me of hiding them, then found them already packed in his bag. So, I guess packing cubes aren't for everyone, but I still think that for 98% of people they're a great tool for keeping everything nice and in reach on a trip.

From "Can You Cure Yourself of Drug Addiction?" by Nina Bai, Scientific American (March 2011)
Scientific American writer Nina Bai spoke with Sally Satel about quitting drugs without professional treatment. Dr. Satel, a resident scholar at the American Enterprise Institute for Public Policy Research and lecturer in psychiatry at the Yale University School of Medicine, was formerly a staff psychiatrist at the Oasis Clinic in Washington, D.C., where she worked with substance abuse patients.
