Cather, Willa: O Pioneers!. v1, 19 Jan 2008
From Amazon.com:
O Pioneers! (1913) was Willa Cather's first great novel, and to many it remains her unchallenged masterpiece. No other work of fiction so faithfully conveys both the sharp physical realities and the mythic sweep of the transformation of the American frontier -- and the transformation of the people who settled it. Cather's heroine is Alexandra Bergson, who arrives on the wind-blasted prairie of Hanover, Nebraska, as a girl and grows up to make it a prosperous farm. But this archetypal success story is darkened by loss, and Alexandra's devotion to the land may come at the cost of love itself. At once a sophisticated pastoral and a prototype for later feminist novels, O Pioneers! is a work in which triumph is inextricably enmeshed with tragedy, a story of people who do not claim a land so much as they submit to it and, in the process, become greater than they were.

Midlife Crisis for Onstage Revival of 'The Championship Season'; Good 'Good People'
Decades ago, a prize was won. Its winners have reveled since in their triumph. In the here and now, though, the victory is revealed to be hollow, and the victors still celebrating it, empty.
This is the crux of That Championship Season, which debuted at Joseph Papp's Public Theater in 1972, was transferred to Broadway Read More

Coding: Creative can be criminal. It is common practice for many medical associations to offer physicians courses on using the American Medical Association's Current Procedural Terminology, a list of descriptive terms and codes used to report medical services and procedures performed by physicians. The purpose of these courses is to teach physicians to code accurately, not "creatively." Nonetheless, a newly released report from the General Accounting Office suggests that CME providers should pay careful attention to the content of such courses.
Between July 2000 and June 2001, the GAO sent investigators to coding CME courses sponsored by the Medical Society of the District of Columbia and the American Academy of Physician Assistants. In each case, the investigators found, according to the report, that the courses "provided certain advice that…if followed could result in violations of criminal and civil statutes."
Coding course consultants who advocate not reporting insurance overpayments, creating documentation to bill for services not actually performed, or limiting services to patients with low-paying health insurance coverage (such as Medicaid) are, in other words, encouraging physicians to break the law.
Finding expert speakers in the field of alternative/complementary medicine can be difficult. How do you judge a speaker's credentials? A New York City — based publication, Traditional Chinese Medicine World, has named the winners of its "Best of the West 2000" survey of U.S. colleges of Oriental and traditional Chinese medicine in its current summer edition. The overall winners were the American College of Traditional Chinese Medicine, San Francisco; the Oregon College of Oriental Medicine, Portland, Ore.; and the Texas College of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Austin, Texas. Schools with the best faculty were the American Academy of Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine, Minneapolis, Minn.; the International Institute of Chinese Medicine, Santa Fe, N.M.; and the National College of Oriental Medicine, Orlando.
Organizations underwritten by pharma firms — it's a trend in associations that warrants the attention of the CME community. A recent example: There is a new organization of endocrinologists, called the Council for the Advancement of Diabetes Research and Education (CADRE). There is nothing inherently wrong with CADRE; it began life as the result of a survey of endocrinologists who agreed that it would be a good idea to re-evaluate current diabetes therapies. CADRE is underwritten by joint unrestricted educational grants, and it sponsors CME programs for physicians in accordance with the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education guidelines. Nonetheless, it seems important to note that the unrestricted grants come from just two firms: Aventis Pharmaceuticals Inc. and Pfizer Inc., each of which markets diabetes therapies.
Lose the pizza Tired of watching pharmaceutical company detailers lug pizzas and soft drinks to their offices, the doctors of the Queen City Physicians medical group in Cincinnati now require reps to pay for appointments with doctors — a 10 minute appointment is $65. Should this become a trend, will medical conference organizers be able to turn this into an opportunity to offer their own conventions as low-cost alternatives for reaching physicians?
It had to happen: The "First World Congress on Men's Health" will be held November 2 to 4 in Vienna. The meeting is being organized by the Men's Health Initiative, Institute of Social Medicine, and the Center of Advanced Medical Education and Health Communication, both divisions of the University of Vienna Medical School, in cooperation with the city's Municipal Health Planning Department and the United Nations. Vienna was chosen, in part, because the world's first study of men's health, the Vienna Men's Health Report, was initiated by Vienna under the WHO project "Healthy Cities."

Lisa Highfill is one of the best teachers my son has had the opportunity to have. The article that discussed her "flipped learning" is only a small piece of what she has contributed to the education of my son and all the others that she's taught. She is a true 21st century teacher. PUSD needs more teachers like her. People who don't know her don't know what a great asset we have in our district. There's just enough positive things I can say about her. She truly deserves the Nobel Peace Prize for Education. I usually don't add comments but had to when I saw Lisa's name in this article.

HU nipped by Aquinas
Things didn't go as planned for the #24-ranked men's Foresters
team (12-3) in their first game after Christmas as they dropped a 72-69 decision to the Saints of Aquinas College (8-8) on Wednesday night.
The Foresters, shooting nearly fifty percent as a team on the season, came out flat to start the contest and quickly found themselves in a seven-point hole, 19-12, midway through the period. Things went from bad to worse as HU managed only two points over the next five minutes allowing the Saints to push the lead to 27-14 with just under six minutes left in the half. Kellen Zawadzki scored five of HU's next seven points to cut the lead to eight at 29-21 but the Saints went on a 13-4 tear to close out the half and take a comfortable 42-25 lead into intermission.
The Foresters connected on 31.4 percent (11-for-35) of their field goal attempts in the first half while the Saints made good on 48.6 percent (17-for-35).
The Saints continued to dominate through the first seven minutes of the second stanza to take their largest lead of the night at 57-32. An offensive put back by Zawadzki on the next possession ignited an 11-4 run that cut the lead to 18 with just over ten minutes left in the half. Bobby Jolliff then took matters into his own hands scoring ten of the Foresters' next 14 points to trim the Saints' lead to seven, 64-57, with just over three minutes left in the contest. Two Saint free throws grew the lead back to nine but a Tyler Shively three and an old fashioned three-point play by Jolliff gave the Forester hopefuls something to cheer about as Aquinas held onto a slim three-point lead at 66-63 with 2:06 on the clock.
Poor shooting came back to haunt the Foresters as they came up short on their next four possessions allowing the Saints to build the lead back to seven with 21 ticks remaining. Shively and Colin Featherston hit back-to-back threes to keep it close but it was too little too late as the Saints came up with enough freebies to ward off a heroic Forester comeback.
Zawadzki led all scorers with 23 points. Jolliff finished with 15 points and a team-high eight rebounds. Shively added 12 points and five steals. Damacious White lead a balanced Aquinas attack with 19 points. Also scoring in double digits for the Saints was Matt Weiss and A.J. Schmidt with 13 each and Brett Pfahler with 11. Jake Shockey grabbed a game-high 12 boards.
The Foresters are back in action on Tuesday, January 4, when the host MCC rival Grace College at 7:00 p.m.

The Microsaic 3500 MiD (Molecular ion detector) is the world's smallest mass spectrometer, giving the chemist a compact, integrated system with no comprimise on performance. The 3500 MiD is the size of a single HPLC module with no floor pump or external PC. For the first time, chemists can have access to valuable MS data in the lab.
The 3500 MiD is designed to integrate with existing HPLC equipment with no extra footprint and no infrastructure requirements (e.g. sound-proofing, AC). Extend the capability of your HPLC system with significant cost savings compared to a conventional MS system.
Historically, MS has only been used for off-line analysis but the 3500 MiD is so compact can be used for on-line reaction monitoring in a fume-hood. Monitoring batch reactions in real time provides the chemist with vital reaction data which can be acted upon to maximise yield and/or minimize impurities. The 3500 MiD is also ideal for flow chemistry systems where MS data can be used for reaction optimisation.
The system is portable with modular plug and play components for maximum application flexibility.
Features of the 3500 MiD:
• Small footprint - fully integrated computer and vacuum system
• Stackable - size of standard LC module
• Quiet - no floor pump
• Unrivalled low power consumption
• Network ready - LAN interface and IP address
• Wireless keyboard and mouse, or remote access via LAN
• Intuitive, user-friendly Molecular iD software application
• Full data analysis suite based around total ion chromatogram (TIC)
• Full scan and selected ion monitoring (SIM) modes
Applications of the 3500 MiD:
• In-line reaction monitoring (flow or batch)
• Mass selective detector for preparative and flash LC
• Process monitoring
• Analytical LC including Micro LC, Nano LC and HPLC

Antibiotics (cont.) Medical Author:
Everett Stephens, MD
Medical Editor:
William C. Shiel Jr., MD, FACP, FACR
William C. Shiel Jr., MD, FACP, FACRDr. Shiel received a Bachelor of Science degree with honors from the University of Notre Dame. There he was involved in research in radiation biology and received the Huisking Scholarship. After graduating from St. Louis University School of Medicine, he completed his Internal Medicine residency and Rheumatology fellowship at the University of California, Irvine. He is board-certified in Internal Medicine and Rheumatology. IN THIS ARTICLE
Types of AntibioticsAlthough there are well over 100 antibiotics, the majority come from only a few types of drugs. These are the main classes of antibiotics.
Most antibiotics have 2 names, the trade or brand name, created by the drug company that manufactures the drug, and a generic name, based on the antibiotic's chemical structure or chemical class. Trade names such as Keflex and Zithromax are capitalized. Generics such as cephalexin and azithromycin are not capitalized. Each antibiotic is effective only for certain types of infections, and your doctor is best able to compare your needs with the available medicines. Also, a person may have allergies that eliminate a class of antibiotic from consideration, such as a penicillin allergy preventing your doctor from prescribing amoxicillin. In most cases of antibiotic use, a doctor must choose an antibiotic based on the most likely cause of the infection. For example, if you have an earache, the doctor knows what kinds of bacteria cause most ear infections. He or she will choose the antibiotic that best combats those kinds of bacteria. In another example, a few bacteria cause about 90% of pneumonias in previously healthy people. If you are diagnosed with pneumonia, the doctor will choose an antibiotic that will kill these bacteria. Other factors may be considered when choosing an antibiotic. Medication cost, dosing schedule, and common side effects are often taken into account. Patterns of infection in your community may be considered also. In some cases, laboratory tests may be used to help a doctor make an antibiotic choice. Special strains of the bacteria such as Gram stains, can be used to identify bacteria under the microscope and may help narrow down which species of bacteria is causing infection. Certain bacterial species will take a stain, and others will not. Cultures may also be obtained. In this technique, a bacterial sample from your infection is allowed to grow in a laboratory.

AM21 not compatible with HR34, according to DTV
Posted 11 November 2012 - 03:26 PM
Posted 11 November 2012 - 03:50 PM
You can either watch an AM21 OTA tuner live on a C31 client or an OTA recording, both work.A follow up question to this... I'm about to be a new account owner, and have chosen the HR34 for our living room and Genie C31 clients for the bedroom and office to run off it. I was planning on adding an AM21. Assuming the AM21 identifies the additional locals in its scan will I be able to watch the channels coming in on the AM21 via the Genie clients, or only on the HR34 itself?
The AM21 provides two OTA tuners to be used in some mix of watching on a C31 or watching/recording on the HR34.
-Steve- Subscriber since Sept 1998 My Complete Setup
SWM16 / HR44-500 (2TB & AM21) / HR34-700 (3TB & AM21) / HR24-500 (2TB eSATA) / C31 via WCCK / C41 x2 / C41W / H25-700

One more follow up question.. can you exclude some channels the AM21 finds on the HR34? For example we get an ETV station with about 5 subchannels that I don't really care to scroll through. Can I have it not display those, or is it an all or nothing deal?
Yes you can edit off air channels and prevent the channels/sub channels from displaying in the guide.
Posted 26 November 2012 - 03:06 PM
Yes you can edit off air channels and prevent the channels/sub channels from displaying in the guide.
To add to this I believe you can do it in two seperate places as well. Inside the antenna set-up screen, as well as in your cutom guide if you are using one. I think I make sure to include all of them in the antenna set-up screen, but then only include the ones I really want in my custom guide. That way if I ever do want to check out what is on those channels for some reason I can just switch my guide over to all channels, and they will show up, then I can go back to my custom guide to get rid of them again. This saves me from having to edit the channel list in the antenna set-up section over and over.

Not all dreams need to be big ones. In fact, some of our smaller dreams keep us motivated, delighted to do what we can to achieve them. It's often these little things that are ours alone. Goals others might deem strange or at least not very dream-worthy.
So what. Dream them anyway.
Planning a night out with friends. Cleaning out that one closet or room. Finding time to make a favorite seasonal dish. Organizing your desk. Having the greenest lawn on the block. Spending a day at the spa. Making your own cleaning solutions.
Whatever your little dream is, figure out a way to make it happen. These little things give a sense of accomplishment that we just won't get from anything else. These are the things we do simply for ourselves. Sure, someone else might also benefit. But really, we'd be happy even if realizing our little dreams didn't affect anyone else at all.
Go ahead. Dream a little dream.

Matter wave
In quantum mechanics, the concept of matter waves or de Broglie waves /dəˈbrɔɪ/ reflects the wave–particle duality of matter. The theory was proposed by Louis de Broglie in 1924 in his PhD thesis.[1] The de Broglie relations show that the wavelength is inversely proportional to the momentum of a particle and is also called de Broglie wavelength. Also the frequency of matter waves, as deduced by de Broglie, is directly proportional to the total energy E (sum of its rest energy and the kinetic energy) of a particle.[2]
Historical context[edit]
At the end of the 19th century, light was thought to consist of waves of electromagnetic fields which propagated according to Maxwell's equations, while matter was thought to consist of localized particles (See history of wave and particle viewpoints). This division was challenged when, in his 1905 paper on the photoelectric effect, Albert Einstein postulated that light was emitted and absorbed as localized packets, or "quanta" (now called photons). These quanta would have an energy
where is the frequency of the light and h is Planck's constant. In the modern convention, frequency is symbolized by f as is done in the rest of this article. Einstein's postulate was confirmed experimentally by Robert Millikan and Arthur Compton over the next two decades. Thus it became apparent that light has both wave-like and particle-like properties. De Broglie, in his 1924 PhD thesis, sought to expand this wave-particle duality to all particles:
" | When I conceived the first basic ideas of wave mechanics in 1923–24, I was guided by the aim to perform a real physical synthesis, valid for all particles, of the coexistence of the wave and of the corpuscular aspects that Einstein had introduced for photons in his theory of light quanta in 1905. | " |
—De Broglie[3] |
In 1926, Erwin Schrödinger published an equation describing how this matter wave should evolve—the matter wave equivalent of Maxwell's equations—and used it to derive the energy spectrum of hydrogen. That same year Max Born published his now-standard interpretation that the square of the amplitude of the matter wave gives the probability of finding the particle at a given place. This interpretation was in contrast to De Broglie's own interpretation, in which the wave corresponds to the physical motion of a localized particle.
de Broglie relations[edit]
Quantum mechanics[edit]
The de Broglie equations relate the wavelength λ to the momentum p, and frequency f to the total energy E of a particle:[2]
where h is Planck's constant. The equation can be equivalently written as
using the definitions
- is the reduced Planck's constant (also known as Dirac's constant, pronounced "h-bar"),
- is the angular wavenumber,
- is the angular frequency.
In each pair, the second is also referred to as the Planck-Einstein relation, since it was also proposed by Planck and Einstein.
Special relativity[edit]
Using the relativistic momentum formula from special relativity
allows the equations to be written as[4]
where m0 is the particle's rest mass, v is the particle's velocity, γ is the Lorentz factor, and c is the speed of light in a vacuum. See below for details of the derivation of the de Broglie relations. Group velocity (equal to the particle's speed) should not be confused with phase velocity (equal to the product of the particle's frequency and its wavelength). In the case of a non-dispersive medium, they happen to be equal, but otherwise they are not.
This article or section may need to be cleaned up. It has been merged from Group velocity and Phase velocity. |
Group velocity[edit]
Albert Einstein first explained the wave–particle duality of light in 1905. Louis de Broglie hypothesized that any particle should also exhibit such a duality. The velocity of a particle, he concluded then (but may be questioned today, see above), should always equal the group velocity of the corresponding wave. De Broglie deduced that if the duality equations already known for light were the same for any particle, then his hypothesis would hold. This means that
where E is the total energy of the particle, p is its momentum, ħ is the reduced Planck constant. For a free non-relativistic particle it follows that
where m is the mass of the particle and v its velocity.
Also in special relativity we find that
where m is the mass of the particle, c is the speed of light in a vacuum, is the Lorentz factor, and v is the velocity of the particle regardless of wave behavior.
Group velocity (equal to an electron's speed) should not be confused with phase velocity (equal to the product of the electron's frequency multiplied by its wavelength).
Both in relativistic and non-relativistic quantum physics, we can identify the group velocity of a particle's wave function with the particle velocity. Quantum mechanics has very accurately demonstrated this hypothesis, and the relation has been shown explicitly for particles as large as molecules.[citation needed]
Phase velocity[edit]
In quantum mechanics, particles also behave as waves with complex phases. By the de Broglie hypothesis, we see that
Using relativistic relations for energy and momentum, we have
where E is the total energy of the particle (i.e. rest energy plus kinetic energy in kinematic sense), p the momentum, the Lorentz factor, c the speed of light, and β the speed as a fraction of c. The variable v can either be taken to be the speed of the particle or the group velocity of the corresponding matter wave. Since the particle speed for any particle that has mass (according to special relativity), the phase velocity of matter waves always exceeds c, i.e.
and as we can see, it approaches c when the particle speed is in the relativistic range. The superluminal phase velocity does not violate special relativity, as it carries no information. See the article on signal velocity for details.
Using the four-momentum P = (E/c, p) and the four-wavevector K = (ω/c, k), the De Broglie relations form a single equation:
which is frame-independent.
Experimental confirmation[edit]
Matter waves were first experimentally confirmed to occur in the Davisson-Germer experiment for electrons, and the de Broglie hypothesis has been confirmed for other elementary particles. Furthermore, neutral atoms and even molecules have been shown to be wave-like.
In 1927 at Bell Labs, Clinton Davisson and Lester Germer fired slow-moving electrons at a crystalline nickel target. The angular dependence of the reflected electron intensity was measured, and was determined to have the same diffraction pattern as those predicted by Bragg for x-rays. Before the acceptance of the de Broglie hypothesis, diffraction was a property that was thought to be only exhibited by waves. Therefore, the presence of any diffraction effects by matter demonstrated the wave-like nature of matter. When the de Broglie wavelength was inserted into the Bragg condition, the observed diffraction pattern was predicted, thereby experimentally confirming the de Broglie hypothesis for electrons.[5]
This was a pivotal result in the development of quantum mechanics. Just as the photoelectric effect demonstrated the particle nature of light, the Davisson–Germer experiment showed the wave-nature of matter, and completed the theory of wave-particle duality. For physicists this idea was important because it means that not only can any particle exhibit wave characteristics, but that one can use wave equations to describe phenomena in matter if one uses the de Broglie wavelength.
Neutral atoms[edit]
Experiments with Fresnel diffraction[6] and specular reflection[7][8] of neutral atoms confirm the application of the de Broglie hypothesis to atoms, i.e. the existence of atomic waves which undergo diffraction, interference and allow quantum reflection by the tails of the attractive potential.[9] Advances in laser cooling have allowed cooling of neutral atoms down to nanokelvin temperatures. At these temperatures, the thermal de Broglie wavelengths come into the micrometre range. Using Bragg diffraction of atoms and a Ramsey interferometry technique, the de Broglie wavelength of cold sodium atoms was explicitly measured and found to be consistent with the temperature measured by a different method.[10]
This effect has been used to demonstrate atomic holography, and it may allow the construction of an atom probe imaging system with nanometer resolution.[11][12] The description of these phenomena is based on the wave properties of neutral atoms, confirming the de Broglie hypothesis.
Recent experiments even confirm the relations for molecules and even macromolecules, which are normally considered too large to undergo quantum mechanical effects. In 1999, a research team in Vienna demonstrated diffraction for molecules as large as fullerenes.[13] The researchers calculated a De Broglie wavelength of the most probable C60 velocity as 2.5 pm. More recent experiments prove the quantum nature of molecules with a mass up to 6910 amu.[14] In general, the De Broglie hypothesis is expected to apply to any well isolated object.
Spatial Zeno effect[edit]
This section may be confusing or unclear to readers. (December 2013) |
The matter wave leads to the spatial version of the quantum Zeno effect. If an object (particle) is observed with frequency Ω >> ω in a half-space (say, y < 0), then this observation prevents the particle, which stays in the half-space y > 0 from entry into this half-space y < 0. Such an "observation" can be realized with a set of rapidly moving absorbing ridges, filling one half-space. In the system of coordinates related to the ridges, this phenomenon appears as a specular reflection of a particle from a ridged mirror, assuming the grazing incidence (small values of the grazing angle). Such a ridged mirror is universal; while we consider the idealised "absorption" of the de Broglie wave at the ridges, the reflectivity is determined by wavenumber k and does not depend on other properties of a particle.[8]

Medieval Free
100,000 - 500,000 downloads
- Lots of upgrades
- Nice landscapes
- Too slooow.
- Just 5 levels available for free
Defense game with attacking options.
Medieval is nearer to a dragon hunting game rather than a tower defense, though it mixes elements from both. You have to protect your castle at the same time you try to pull down your enemy's. You'll start with a weak and slow ballista and, as it should be expected, all the gold you earn killing enemy troops can be exchanged for defensive improvements (boiling oil cauldrons, palisades...) or attacking units (archers, knights, catapults). Meanwhile, the core of the game is to launch arrows all the time.
How many gold coins you earn per kill depends on what game mode you chose. If you are asking for trouble there's a mode where you must drag every single arrow. Yes, you'll earn a 20% more money and you'll hate this game a 2,000% earlier. The arc mode isn't as generous but it'll be kinder with your fingertips. Lastly, there's an easy "point where you want to shoot" mode which doesn't give any bonus and it's more comfortable. Keep in mind that several hundred arrows are fired each stage when you select your game mode.
Supports 5 languages and has a comprehensive help file in case you haven't played a similar game before. It's a pity that you can't pinch out to zoom in and enjoy graphics and animations properly, the same goes for game pace: a fast forward option would be greatly appreciated at the first stages.
This is the free version and allows to play the first 5 levels. Not too much to enjoy the game, but enough to consider whether to upgrade it or not.
Welcome to Medieval - tower defense at it's finest. Stunning graphics, outstanding audio, and addictive gameplay combine to make a gaming experience of epic proportions supporting both Tablets and Phones.
Simply Tap the screen to unleash various diabolical Medieval weapons on the legions of enemy forces that threaten your Castle and your honor.
Leave the magic fairies, silly plants, and spells to the others - Medieval is hardcore castle defense in its purest and most satisfying form. Where archers and armour, bombs and boulders, catapults and cauldrons...all battle it out in defense of your castle and your honor.
"Between the great graphics, realistic sounds, and addictive gameplay, you quickly find yourself fully immersed in the world of Medieval as hours slide by." Score: 4.5/5 - Macworld
"The best graphics of any castle defense game on the App Store by a wide margin." - Frapstr.com

- 2 tablespoons baking cocoa
- 2 teaspoons hazelnut liqueur
- 1/3 cup chopped pistachios

Won't make again. Lots of work for very little flavor differentiation in the layers. I always try new recipes out on my neighbors before adding to my Christmas cookie baking and they agreed with me.
Reviewed Dec. 26, 2012
I needed to tweak the flour a bit with the marachino layer but everyone loved these. I put the dough in the freezer once it was layered and it sliced perferctly.
Reviewed Dec. 19, 2012
Mine did not turn out so rectangular but everyone liked these cookies, I left out the hazelnut flavoring in the chocolate layer and it was fine.

Posted over 6 years ago What exactly does a CNA do? |

| Posted over 6 years ago A cna does all of the grunt work. We bathe people even at 2 am when they shit from head to toe,literaly,especially on laxiative night.We walk people to the bathroom even if they can barely stand anywhere from 2 to 12 times a night(not exaggerating)or more.We feed the people even if they can do it themselves but refuse to for whatever reason to make sure they don't starve to death.We hold hands of people who had nightmares because they are scared and alone.And finally we are at the beck and call of everyone from housekeeping (cleaning rooms) to laudry(cleaning closets) to p.t.(transporting people)to dietary(cleaning dineing room)to nurses (every thing;vitals,b.m.,food intake,etc.moods)plus familys("mom's notbeing turned enough")Basicly we do everything a parent would do for 18 to 30 children all in 8 hours. |

| Posted over 6 years ago I see from your profile you have worked in a nursing home. What did you like and dislike about it? |
54 posts back to top |
| Posted over 6 years ago I loved almost every one I worked in.Especially if the nurses were understanding and let me do my work without an attitude.I am the type of cna who goes beyond the call of duty. If I see someone is trying to break down I will turn them more often, so don't look at the turn schedule and question me about it.If a patient is hungry at night (I worked the 10-6 shift) I would find them something to eat. I loved when they didn't pass the bedtime snacks.It gave me something to feed the people at night.If some one had an oder I bed bathed them after my 2 o'clock rounds.I also forced fluids on them at night. I like it if there is a relaxed atmosphere,respect from my co-workers(adm.,nurses and cna's) and the supplies I need to do my job. I've even worked in n.h.that did't have soap, lotion (i believe heavily in lotion the skin is the first line of defense) or even enough pads at night. so I had to laundry just to to have them for round's.But even that didn't both me.And don't get me on therometer's and bp cuff's. I bought my own. It really doesn't take much to make me happy. But my my pet peeves are many. I'll give you some examples.One night we had 2 cna's for 120 patient's.I had finished first round at 12:30. I went outside to grab a quick cig.when I came back in my nurse was made at me and told me I had four lights on. She was sitting at the desk reading a magazine.And never moved. She never answered one light all night long.I HATE working with nurses like that.another instance a pt. was acting pecular one night. She was very confused and disoriented.So I took her vital's and reported it to the nurse. The vital's were normal so she said not to worry about it. When I came into work the next night they told me she had died that afternoon. She had a massive stroke.Unfortunately I could go on in 20 year"s as a cna.But my biggest pet peeve is getting up pt.'s up at4:30 in the a.m. If they want to that's okay as long as I can get to the bed patient's before I get off. But not a tube feeder or someone who is incorent so they can sleep in their chair.That' being up way to long.Oh an also the new no restraint policy.No bed rails and no seatbelts in wc. To many fall's are happening and too many people are gatting hurt.Me included. But I have worked where the nurses were angels.They helped me and in return I did my best to help them. |

| Posted over 6 years ago Thank you for all the information. I wish nursing homes had more people who cared like you. I plan on looking into the CNA program in my town, hopefully it will be taught in the evenings so I can go through it. |
2 posts back to top |
| Posted over 6 years ago I worked as a CNA for 10 yrs before becoming a nurse. And I think they are the hardest working, unappreciated medical staff in the health care business. They spent more time with the resident then anyone else on the staff. If CNA's tell you something is wrong, you should at least investigate. Don't get me wrong, I loved being a CNA, taking care of residents for any care they needed, I also liked listening to stories about how times have changed, the depression, Pearl Harbor and how they dressed in the 20's and 30's, segregation and how their families all worked together to make a living. And as a nurse(working in hospital now), I will help my assistants and jump in there to help. I give respect and they give it back to me, we work as a team. It is more efficient for OUR patient and they can get better sooner. |

What women want: Six must-haves in a home
January 31, 2013 @ 12:12 pm (Updated: 3:26 pm - 2/1/13 )
Women are a big part of the housing market and usually the decision-makers when it comes to the design of the home. Consequently, more real estate professionals, designers, and marketers are taking notice of women's home preferences.
What do women want in a home? Consumer research experts from Coldwell Banker Real Estate, John Burns Real Estate, and others weighed in to women's home preferences in a recent article at MSN:
* Big closets
* A special kitchen: That entails "big open kitchens that include space for dining, entertaining, doing homework, using computers, watching TV, and hanging out together," the article says.
* Terrific location: Women usually care more about location and less about home size, according to Mollie Carmichael, consumer research expert at John Burns Real Estate Consulting.
* A comfortable place for socializing: It could be a kitchen island or counter, a comfortable den, or a corner with some chairs and sofa in front of a fireplace.
" Low maintenance, such as "no-paint exterior siding, no-fuss landscaping, and homes that are new or recently renovated," the research article noted.
* A two-car garage
