New Brunswick, Sculpture Saint John 01 Aug 3, 2012
The World > North America > Canada
At the Coast Guard Site on the Saint John Waterfront Friday, August 3, 2012 at 11:00 am
A couple of the eager sculptors started carving even before the opening ceremonies started.
The sculptors were taken to a local quarry where they selected the large chunks of granite they wanted to work with. Yesterday they were moved and placed in their preferred orientation to begin work.
Today during the opening ceremonies the Carnival Glory cruise ship is in port visiting.
An International Sculpture Symposium – Sculpture Saint John is being held August 2 to September 15 2012.
Six accomplished sculptors selected from around the globe are shaping mammoth chunks of stunning New Brunswick granite into works of art. The International Sculpture Symposium presents each artist with the opportunity to display their finished work in a prominent location in our region. Local interns from the region get to learn from the international experts.
These magnificent sculptures will be created throughout August and September at the Coast Guard site on the Saint John Waterfront. Cruise ship passengers, tourists, students and the general public will watch the sculptors in the midst of their creative process.

The capital of Canada is Ottawa, in the province of Ontario. There are offically ten provinces and three territories in Canada, which is the second largest country in the world in terms of land area.
While politically and legally an independant nation, the titular head of state for Canada is still Queen Elizabeth.
On the east end of Canada, you have Montreal as the bastion of activity. Montreal is famous for two things, VICE magazine and the Montreal Jazz Festival. One is the bible of hipster life (disposable, of course) and the other is a world-famous event that draws more than two million people every summer. Quebec is a French speaking province that has almost seceded from Canada on several occasions, by the way..
When you think of Canada, you think of . . . snow, right?
But not on the West Coast. In Vancouver, it rains. And you'll find more of the population speaking Mandarin than French (but also Punjabi, Tagalog, Korean, Farsi, German, and much more).
Like the other big cities in Canada, Vancouver is vividly multicultural and Vancouverites are very, very serious about their coffee.
Your standard Vancouverite can be found attired head-to-toe in Lululemon gear, mainlining Cafe Artigiano Americanos (spot the irony for ten points).
But here's a Vancouver secret only the coolest kids know: the best sandwiches in the city aren't found downtown. Actually, they're hidden in Edgemont Village at the foot of Grouse Mountain on the North Shore.
"It's actually worth coming to Canada for these sandwiches alone." -- Michelle Superle, Vancouver

Time to fork the FSF
If you've read this blog for any period of time, you would have noticed, at the end of the blog, a button for the Free Software Foundation marking me as Member No. 5030.
It is no longer there, and with good reason.
So today I resigned my membership in the Free Software Foundation, so I am no longer Member No. 5030. I did so because Richard Stallman no longer speaks for me after making a completely ludicrous, tactless and heartless remark regarding the passing of Steve Jobs.
You can read the three-paragraph post here. There has also been commentary about it by Steven J. Vaughan-Nichols here and by Adrian Kingsley Hughes here.
Joe "Zonker" Brockmeier probably wrote the best commentary on the issue here.
Richard Stallman crafted an outstanding software license and wrote a outstanding treatise on free software in "Free Software, Free Society," of which I have bought multiple copies and have given to people I thought would benefit from reading it.
Few have had the huevos to publicly call him out on things he's done wrong or on miscues for which he is responsible, and those who have usually have faced a barrage of criticism from free software "advocates" who've attacked them with a zeal, ironically, reserved for Apple fanboys and fangirls. But the fact remains that Stallman's dogmatic attitude and peculiar behavior has been an anchor weighing down a significant degree of progress the free software movement could have made to date.
One could argue, "OK, so he made a mistake with the Jobs thing. Give him some latitude."
No. Not anymore. This is not the first time this has happened. From the GNU/Linux insistence to the "Emacs virgin" incident to a litany of other miscues that display a clear lack of leadership skills, it's time people stopped saying, "Oh, that's just Stallman being Stallman" and hold him accountable.
So I think it behooves thoughtful free software advocates to seriously consider forking the Free Software Foundation, and create a new organization; a more flexible, more responsible organization that marries today's technological realities to the possibilities and necessities — especially the necessities — that the free software paradigm offers society.
Call me a heretic if you like, and if you want to debate this rationally, I'm up for that, too.
In the meantime, I will keep advocating for free software as I always have. However, I will do so now independently and not as a member of the FSF.

Sometimes the best response is a shrug
This week there was a sort of back-and-forth starting with Brian Proffitt in one blog item about Richard Stallman's somewhat verbose Guardian article and a response by Bruce Byfield in a blog item about how he notices that lately people are picking on the Free Software Foundation. This kind of tete-a-tete is normally custom made for my participation, and last night I had thought about jumping in with both feet and an arm.
But you know what? Never mind. Just never mind. I had a whole blog item written last night. I went to bed. I woke up this morning and read my item. Then I deleted it. It's just another "fuel, meet fire" situation that, despite my standard-issue remarkable and compelling prose (ahem), would have just removed focus from more important issues and would have created ill feelings.
So I'm just going to shrug, say "Ho-kay," and write about something else.
Before I do, however, I will say that I do think Brian is right when he says that the Guardian article is another FSF broadside against open source, and that I don't agree with Bruce's arguments that the FSF is being picked on. Let's look more importantly at the latter: The FSF does a lot of great things on behalf of software freedom, and does so with remarkably few resources. For this we are truly thankful. On the other hand, the FSF tragically has made an exact science of cultivating a "my way or highway" attitude (bring up dissenting viewpoints, as I have, and see how far you go), which makes its prevalent dogmatic stance a formula for organizational rigor mortis. For this reason alone (though there are others I won't go into here), the FSF hand-delivers invitations for criticism — some of it deserved, some not — rather than than being victims of attacks for whatever reason externally. For all the great things he has done, Richard Stallman is largely responsible for this culture of dogma and rigidity, and when some — not me, but others — equate the FSF to being the FOSS equivalent of the Taliban, I'd like to argue against that comparison but, honestly, I really can't.
But never mind.
Let's go from one train wreck to another, shall we?
One of the items that is high on the tech radar today is the fact that Hewlett-Packard is about to push Leo Apotheker off the top of the building (the sentiments of some board members, it's safe to say) and replace him with — I kid you not — Meg Whitman.
Meg Whitman. I would have prefered Slim Whitman — link to Wikipedia provided so the kids here don't have to Google him. So while you read who he is, get off of my lawn.
This Whitman-for-Apotheker swap has been described as a "hangover solution" in one ZDNet blog item, a sort of "hair of the dog" after an all-night bender where the first question is, "I did . . . WHAT?!" And the best decisions are usually not made when you're hung over. Hence we have Meg Whitman waiting in the wings when, according to people at HP, they have a very capable CEO choice in house with Ann Livermore.
While it would probably be best for HP to keep someone in house at the helm — that's one vote for you, Ann, over Meg — whomever takes over hopefully will say, with one of their first utterances in charge, "Remember what we said about dumping our hardware and WebOS? We take that back."
That would be nice, but on the whole that, too, probably deserves another shrug.
(Larry Cafiero is one of the founders of the Lindependence Project and has just started developing software in his new home office. Watch this space.)
Zonker nails it again
One of the great things about people writing things that you have been thinking — let alone things you wish you had written — is that you don't have to do it yourself.
So, thanks to Joe "Zonker" Brockmeier for writing this on the Linux Magazine site about the "Party of Gno," with some words that hopefully the Free Software Foundation will take to heart.
My thoughts exactly, Zonk.

Intimacy and Ecstasy
Youthful Yearnings
When we're young, and especially if we're in the treacherous waters of the dating pool, having a true spiritual connection in a sexual relationship can seem like asking for the moon. "In your teens, 20s, and even 30s, sexual desire can be wrapped around getting a partner, having a partner, moving in, building a life together," Ogden notes. In treating relationships as something to be accomplished or achieved—much as we often approach our careers at this time in our lives—and having specific expectations for what we want, we're likely blocking the way to a more authentic connection between spirit and sexuality.
"When I talk to people in their 20s, there's a powerful sense of the way things should be versus the way things are," says Jeon, 46. To counter that, Ogden suggests meditation—with your partner or on your own—with "the intention that you will learn about your next step in connecting your sexuality with the larger meanings in your life. What is the next step that your body is leading you to?"
This means overcoming the mistrust of the body that most of us have been taught. "We are told over and over that we learn through our minds, not our bodies, so sometimes it takes a process before you can fully trust the body and learn to separate egotistical tendencies from life-enhancing ones," explains Jorge Ferrer, Ph.D., an associate professor at the California Institute of Integral Studies in San Francisco. "If an experience—including sexual experiences—is egotistical, normally it gives you short-term satisfaction and later a sense of emptiness. If it's life-enhancing, there's a sense of satisfaction with the body."
True self-acceptance is a crucial part of combining yoga and sexuality in the service of a richer spiritual life. It's also something that Americans frequently stumble over, particularly during our youth, claiming that we don't feel any shame about our bodies or our desires. But, says Ogden, who's seen thousands of women who say they want more meaningful sex, "guilt often gets in the middle of the desire for spiritual meaning." Whitwell has observed that almost everyone feels self-conscious or "bodily inhibited" to some degree. Which means that it may be necessary to take a hard look at how you're defining what's "normal" when it comes to sex. "You want to begin to shift the focus on the body from its being either dirty or shameful, or as a tool to attract someone, to the body as sacred—not in an inviolate, virginal sense, but as something to treat responsibly," Ogden explains.
And, how, exactly, do you make such a shift to overcome inhibitions or discomfort with the full expression of your sexuality and spirituality? (After all, talking about God often feels more taboo than sharing every detail of our sex lives.) First, says Ogden, recognize that we're all bombarded with "cultural messages that sex and spirit are very separate. Those messages are everywhere, so if you've come to believe them, it doesn't mean you're strange or sick." Women in particular may still hold ideas about what "good" girls should and shouldn't do, she adds.

In fact, it appears the A's are purposefully staying away from the action:
Things sound pretty quiet for the #Athletics, who arrived in Orlando after most teams. Billy Beane isn't staying at winter meetings hotel.— Susan Slusser (@susanslusser) December 10, 2013
The A's aren't exactly known for doing their dealings at the Winter Meetings themselves. Indeed, Beane himself has emphasized in the past that the team is more likely to lay the groundwork for future deals. I suppose no one should expect the A's to be incredibly active, although they are still trying to trade Brett Anderson:
Exec who is in on SP says #Athletics very available Brett Anderson is "Plan B not Plan A guy, he has a lot of risk, but also lots of upside"— Joel Sherman (@Joelsherman1) December 9, 2013
At least he's preparing himself, though. Or, rather, others are preparing him:
Brett is getting a Speed Hitter for Christmas...gotta practice in case he goes to a NL team— Morgan Bradley (@MorganBradley32) December 9, 2013
There is talk, however, about potential suitors for former A's players. Colon is said to be looking for a multi-year deal, but then there was this from Jon Heyman earlier today:
Colon market heating up. Orioles, mets, others. If it's 1 year deal, it'll be significant number, maybe $10M plus.— Jon Heyman (@JonHeymanCBS) December 9, 2013
The O's are also in on Balfour, apparently
#orioles looking at balfour and axford. Chris perez fits too. #closers— Jon Heyman (@JonHeymanCBS) December 10, 2013
That group is the all personality closing team.
Oh, and a really good, all-but-certain HOF pitcher hung it up today. That's about the extent of the activity today. More (non-) movement to come tomorrow.

Small wind turbines study set for Shipston
Updated 4:13pm Monday 24th February 2014 in News
A FEASIBILITY study into the installation of small wind turbines in Shipston is set to be carried out, following a decision by the town council.
In a motion proposed by deputy mayor Philip Vial, five councillors voted in favour with four against at a recent meeting.
Community Energy Warwickshire, a volunteer-run Community Benefit Society, will now apply for a grant from the Rural Community Energy Fund to carry out an initial study into the potential opportunities for community-owned renewable energy generation.
The study will look at whether or not the wind turbines feasible but also whether they would have public support.

Prosecutors in Budapest on Wednesday rejected a complaint about a lawmaker who called Jews a security risk.
Rabbi Slomo Koves and Daniel Bodnar of Hungary's Chabad-Lubavitch community submitted the complaint over statements made in parliament in November by Marton Gyongyosi of the ultranationalist Jobbik party, in which he suggested that the government draw up a list of Jews in Hungary who posed a "national security threat."
Gyongyosi and the Jobbik party are fiercely critical of Israel and have a history of inflammatory and controversial comments on issues pertaining to the Holocaust and the Jewish state, as well as against his country's Roma population and homosexuals.
Following the outbreak of Operation Pillar of Defense, for example, Gyongyosi, who is Jobbik's spokesman for foreign affairs, accused Israel of continuing "its genocidal activities against the Palestinian people."
Jobbik is the third-largest party in the Hungarian parliament with 47 out of a total of 386 seats.
The Central Investigative Chief Prosecutor's Office in the Hungarian capital, however, concluded that Gyongyosi's remarks could not be classified as inciting to hatred, as Koves and Bodnar had argued.
In a statement Thursday, Koves wrote, "It is our conviction that this rejection is a further sign that the current Hungarian judicial practice is unable to provide an adequate response to the phenomena of incitement of hatred."

Tragedy has enveloped the NFL for the second straight Saturday with the Irving, Texas, police department confirming that Cowboys LB Jerry Brown has died in an early-morning car crash, and Cowboys NT Josh Brent has been charged with intoxication manslaughter.
"Officers at the scene believed alcohol was a contributing factor in the crash; therefore, Price-Brent was asked to perform field sobriety tests," a statement from the Irving Police Department said. "Based on the results of the tests, along with the officer's observations and conversations with Price-Brent, he was arrested for driving while intoxicated. He was transported to an area hospital for a mandatory blood draw. Once it was learned that the passenger of his vehicle had died as a result of the crash, Price-Brent was booked into the Irving City Jail on one count of Intoxication Manslaughter."
Irving police spokesman John Argumaniz said Brent was speeding when his vehicle hit a curb and flipped at least once. He said Brent was charged with a second-degree felony, which could result in a prison sentence from two to 20 years and a $20,000 fine.
Brent had spent time in jail after a DUI while in college at Illinois.
The 25-year-old Brown, a member of the Cowboys practice squad, and Brent, who was expected to have played a key role in this Sunday's game against Cincinnati due to a groin injury to starting NT Jay Ratliff, were friends and teammates at Illinois before being reunited with the Cowboys.
"We are deeply saddened by the news of this accident and the passing of Jerry Brown," Cowboys owner Jerry Jones said in an official statement. "At this time, our hearts and prayers and deepest sympathies are with the members of Jerry's family and all of those who knew him and loved him."
Brown was originally signed by the Colts as an undrafted free agent May 23 but waived Aug. 31 before signing with the Cowboys.
"On behalf of the entire Colts family, our sincerest condolences go out to Jerry's family and friends," Colts GM Ryan Grigson said in a team statement. "He was a good teammate that was well liked by all. Today's tragic news is just another reminder of how fragile life is and how everyday given is a gift."

We need to interface to the Nokia 22 terminal from our switch equipment using Amtelco line cards. The Nokia 22 only reduces loop voltage on disconnect and does not loop break.
Does anyone know how to overcome this problem?

Darby exits Wanderers
3:32pm Thursday 7th February 2013 in Latest
Julian Darby has left Wanderers to team up again with Billy Davies at Nottingham Forest.
Ex-Wanderers player Darby was recruited to assist Jimmy Phillips in running the first team after Owen Coyle's departure as manager earlier this season.
After Dougie Freedman arrived as manager, Darby continued to work at the club coaching the Academy players.
His links with Davies go back many years, supporting the Scotsman as his number two at previous clubs.

KENNEWICK, Wash. -- Justin Feser is the WHL player of the week. In three games, Feser scored six goals, tallying 13 points. The recent play of the Americans captain directly helped Tri-City to a five-game winning streak. The Americans are beating some of the top WHL teams, and they are lighting up the scoreboard, averaging over six goals per game. The Americans know they have been getting some good bounces too.
"A lot of times it is the way the cookie crumbles and I wish it was more than that. I wish there was some elaborate theory to explain 'this is why,' but it's not. We're making pretty good plays and getting good looks but we're finding the back of the net. We've had games where we've had 40 plus shots and scored one goal and you say, 'oh you lost, you didn't play well.' That's not necessarily the case. So we'll just ride this for as long as it goes but they'll be a time when it takes a lot more shots to score," head coach Jim Hiller said.

SAN DIEGO (CNS/CBS 8) - The man who led police on a wild 60-minute-long chase through South Los Angeles, and who was apparently shot and killed after his late-model Chevrolet Corvette smashed into another car, was identified Sunday as an Oceanside man.
Brian Newt Beaird, 51, died at a hospital 43 minutes after the chase ended Friday night, said Los Angeles Coroner's Office Capt. John Kades. No cause of death was reported, and an autopsy would be conducted by Tuesday, he said.
Beaird was apparently shot by Los Angeles police an unknown number of times as he got out of the silver Corvette, which was banged up, smoking and wedged between poles on a sidewalk at the end of the chase.
As paramedics performed CPR and other rescue efforts, Beaird was taken six blocks to California Hospital medical Center, where he died at 11:13 p.m., the coroner said.
John Beaird tells CBS News 8 he doesn't understand why police opened fire on his brother, Brian Beaird.
"He just kept saying, why are they after me? I didn't do anything. You know. My dad had tried to tell him to pull over," John said.
The suspect's brother says Beaird was a disabled veteran, who was with the National Guard for eight years.
"We're pretty angry, I mean there didn't seem to be justification for what happened," John said.
"This could have been handled differently, you know, he was just scared and I don't know what was going through his mind at the time but I hope that if these people did act inappropriately that there will be justice down the line," John said.
Beaird's family is planning to contact an attorney.
Live television pictures at 10 p.m. Friday showed the Corvette running numerous red lights and stop signs, and weaving as it sped through neighborhoods and commercial districts between Cudahy, southeast of Los Angeles, and the area near the Staples Center.
Just after 10:30 p.m. when the Corvette smashed into a a Nissan Maxima, sending it spinning, at East Olympic Boulevard and South Los Angeles Street, the video showed.
As the car's tires spun and smoked, the driver exited from the Corvette. He was then apparently shot, and collapsed on his back on a sidewalk.
The footage and the videographer's description suggested the suspect was a white male, wearing jeans, a grey sweatshirt and white shoes.
Another videographer said CPR was performed on the suspect, who was then taken away by ambulance.
The vehicle had been pursued by Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department and California Highway Patrol vehicles before the LAPD took over at 10:16 p.m. Friday, Herrera said.
"It was in our jurisdiction and it just happened that the officers were in the area," Herrera said. "We did go into tailing mode and then we went into pursuit."
Lt. Josh Barton of the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department East Los Angeles station said the pursuit began in Cudahy at 9:30 p.m., when deputies attempted to pull the driver over for drunk and reckless driving.

The impact of medical errors on health care professionals needs to be addressed to provide support and healthy coping strategies.
Since the release of the 1999 Institute of Medicine (IOM) report To Err Is Human: Building a Safer Health System, much attention has been focused on medical errors.1 This report estimated that up to 98,000 deaths from medical errors occur annually in the United States. These data were shocking to many, to say the least.
Following the IOM report, a culture of patient safety developed, with an emphasis on avoidance of system failures, including use of technology, safe practices, procedures, and policies, all of which combine to form an "organizational culture."2 This culture includes disclosure of medical errors to patients and their families, the so-called first victim.
Also gaining more attention and emphasis in recent years is the impact that medical errors have on health care providers, deemed the "second victim." The concept of the term second victim was coined by Dr Albert Wu, a leading voice in medical errors and the resultant impact on clinicians.3 However, the history of health care professionals being impacted by an unexpected situation or error dates back to 1817. Coincidentally, the one involved was an obstetrician, Sir Richard Croft, MD.
The 1817 second victim story is, in fact, really a "triple tragedy" involving Princess Charlotte, the only legitimate grandchild of George III. Her child was the only heir to be King of England in that family lineage. However, after a torturous 2-day, 50-hour labor, Princess Charlotte delivered a 9-lb stillborn son. Five hours later, Princess Charlotte died from shock and postpartum hemorrhage. Unable to live with the criticism and responsibility for 2 lost lives, Croft committed suicide 3 months later.4
The Triple Tragedy of 1817 is an extreme example of the impact of medical errors on health care providers. However, today in modern medicine there is often no place for mistakes. Despite the often-heard "doctors are only human," innovations such as precise laboratory and diagnostic testing have created expectations of near perfection from clinicians by patients and, at times, hospitals.3
When errors or patient harm occurs, clinicians can experience shame, guilt, and a sense of failure. Moreover, they are discouraged from talking about these events, for fear of litigation, yet they want open discussion with colleagues about medical errors as part of a hospital culture, to feel supported and work through powerful personal emotions.5
back to top
In 1984, David Hilfiker, MD, published in the New England Journal of Medicine the following, describing the perils of medical mistakes on the clinician, medicine as a profession, and society: The drastic consequences of our mistakes, the repeated opportunities to make them, the uncertainty about our own culpability when results are poor, and the medical and societal denial that mistakes must happen all results in an intolerable paradox for the physician. We see the horror of our own mistakes, yet, we are given no permission to deal with their enormous emotional impact....The medical profession simply has no place for its mistakes.6,7
Clearly, medical mistakes do occur, and health care professionals are emotionally affected. Unfortunately, the support and sympathy needed to deal with these mistakes are often lacking.
At best, one can hope for a lack of public criticism or judging. Clinicians feel singled out, agonize over the event, and replay it many times in their mind; they question their level of competency. Lacking the ability or mechanisms to deal with the error, they often develop dysfunctional responses as a mean to protect themselves.
Responses can range from anger to blame elsewhere, defensiveness, and callousness. Added to this is the potential for being a defendant in a medical malpractice claim. The degree to how one reacts to being named a defendant varies by individual; however, whether or not the medical error results in a malpractice suit, there is an emotional, personal, and professional drain.3
Physicians in training are also affected with distress in medical errors. A 2006 study assessed the frequency of self-perceived medical errors and the impact on residents. Results confirmed that self-perceived medical errors were associated with a significant decrease in quality of life, worsening burnout, increased positive screening for depression, depersonalization, emotional exhaustion, and lower personal accomplishment.8
This can affect subsequent patient care, as young clinicians who perceive they have made medical errors in the past demonstrate less empathy and feelings. They are then at greater risk for subsequent errors. Those who are depressed are 2 times more likely to make additional errors.9
With well-documented effects of medical error on health care professionals (attendings, nurses, and residents), what are the interventions to help deal with personal and professional impact of medical errors? How can escalation of the second victim be prevented or minimized?
First, consider that making an error that harms a patient can be the greatest distress clinicians experience in their professional careers. Feelings of failure and fear of disciplinary
In a recent article, the author distinguishes between the feelings of guilt and shame, a distinction useful in helping clinicians cope with medical errors.10 Referencing Aaron Lazare, the writer explains that guilt is usually associated with a particular event, while shame reflects a failure of one's entire self. Guilt prompts a person to make amends, while shame prompts a desire to hide.10
Confession, restitution, and absolution are means to deal with feelings of guilt. However, a confession is often discouraged for fear of litigation or simply because no appropriate forums exist to confess (ie, to discuss the events).3
Morbidity and mortality conferences often focus on "who did what incorrectly" and "who missed what," with a resultant name, blame, and shame scenario. This type of setting offers no assistance for clinicians to deal with errors and makes no acknowledgement that often the health care system itself contributes to the medical error for which the professional is harboring shame or guilt.10
Department leaders, section chiefs, and residency program directors need to pay special attention to the format and environment on morbidity and mortality reviews. Is there an added focus on what can be done from a system (not individual standpoint) to prevent recurrences? Is there public acknowledgement as reference to the error impact on the health care team or individual professional? For these to occur, the leaders must implement these forward changes.
The first step is a general acknowledgement within the medical profession that medical errors are inevitable. Further, clinicians need to be trained in managing these errors both for their patients and for self.6 We can also recognize and verbalize our understanding of the impact of errors on our colleagues. Asking about the emotional impact of the mistake and how they are coping is also helpful. Sharing personal experiences with medical errors and successful coping strategies can help reduce a colleague's sense of isolation.3
To best understand and ultimately assist clinicians involved in medical errors, one must understand the phenomena of the second victim and the associated stages. As described in 2009 by a University of Missouri study, there are 6 predictable and identifiable stages in the second victim phenomena. These are summarized in Table 1.
It is key to recognize these steps, even if our colleagues are not self-aware of them. Resources within hospitals, department, and institutions must assist. These include risk managers, clergy, employee assistance programs, and confessor figures (could include section chief, department chair, residency program director, or neutral confidential third party within the system).11
Clinicians often bear the burden of medical errors in isolation. Institutional mechanisms must be developed and utilized to help health care professionals deal with the impact of medical errors. While often counseled not to discuss the case or events, confidential venues must be established to deal with the personal impact of the error. The critical need is for acknowledgement, recognition, and intervention to assist the clinician in coping with the medical error to minimize the second victim role and actively prevent any tragedies.6
Also, physicians are required to disclose medical errors to patients. This requirement and the ethical issue of disclosure can also assist the clinician in dealing with the error. Therefore, it is imperative that they are trained and comfortable in the process of disclosure of medical errors and anticipated options.12 Disclosure is a component of coping strategies for the second victim.6 These strategies are summarized in Table 2.
One program that warrants attention for its effort to assist clinicians dealing with medical errors is the University of Missouri Health System (UMHS) "Second Victim— forYOU Team." Since 2007, the forYOU Team has provided "emotional first" interventions to help health care providers during difficult times surrounding unanticipated outcomes.
The forYOU Team is available to all UMHS staff and is confidential. Members of the team are not counselors but peers with supportive and good listening skills. Conversations focus not on the actual event or event details but on the second victim's emotional response.13
This program eliminates or greatly diminishes the potential for clinician isolation, while at the same time providing access to a confidential "confessor" figure. Because forYOU Team members are peers and not counselors, second victims may more easily relate to them clinically, while avoiding a potential stigma of "seeing a counselor."
The goals of the forYOU Team are to explore the natural history of second victim suffering and recovery by interviewing previously traumatized clinicians. Further, they seek to create a general awareness about the second victim concept and provide education and supportive approaches for effective healing and restoration. Additionally, to provide "emotional first aid," there is an internal rapid response team of formally trained peers who can be dispatched immediately, if needed.13
In summary, health care professionals involved in medical errors oftentimes are greatly affected both emotionally and personally. Feelings of isolation, shame, guilt, anger, loss of confidence, loss of empathy, and depression are all possible responses.
Institutions can help prevent second victims by recognizing the potential impact medical errors can have on clinicians and implementing formal programs to assist them. Emphasis must be placed on confidentiality and immediate emotional first aid response to clinicians. Further, institutions and departments must advocate a culture of support and trust—not one of the "name, blame, shame" game.
To paraphrase the IOM, "To err is human: To survive intact is humane."

They served us a nice bread basket with olives while we decided what to order. Food was pretty good. I had the roasted chicken which was very tasty. The service was fair. I say that only because I felt the servers were a little rushed as they placed our plates down...not served with much elegance, but this is not a big complaint. I look forward to going back!Special Features:

- Restaurant week disserviceOpentablefangirl8Dined on 7/21/2014Ambience was the only saving grace to our dining. Food was lacking in basic seasoning (salt). But the most disappointing of all is the service. The courses did not come out punctually, and despite following up thrice on the dessert and advising them we are in a hurry- it took over 20min and a check to arrive first before we left our tables upset. Awful. Just awful.
- OpenTable Diner Since 2006VIPDined on 7/21/2014Ammos is a very solid midtown restaurant. The food at this Greek fish restaurant is very good. The lunch special is reasonable given the location, ambience and quality. My only complaint is that the general pricing is a bit on the high side, but I would still recommend it as the other attributes of this establishment more than offset that one flaw. I would certainly return.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Super Greek!SchaefcandDined on 7/19/2014We were pleasantly greeted upon arriving, the manager checked back with us a couple of times and the server Denny knew his stuff.

Couldn't hear the music even when restaurant was just half full.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

Sandra and Leon Levine's $1 million gift to the Critical Need Response Fund from The Leon Levine Foundation inspired donors across the region to contribute an additional $2 million to the effort.
Sandra and Leon Levine are among North Carolina's leading philanthropists. The Levine Museum of the New South, the Levine Children's Hospital, the Central Piedmont Community College Levine Campus, the Levine-Dickson Hospice House and the Levine Senior Center are just a few examples of the couple's remarkable contributions to our region.
Leon Levine founded Family Dollar Stores in 1959 and served as Chairman and CEO until his retirement in 2003. The Matthews-based retail chain is now a Fortune 400 company with more than 6,600 stores in 44 states.
Sandra Levine is a volunteer civic leader and has served on a number of nonprofit boards of directors, including the North Carolina Blumenthal Performing Arts Center, Charlotte Country Day School and the Levine Museum of the New South. She has also served as a board commissioner for Carolinas HealthCare System.
Together, Leon and Sandra oversee The Leon Levine Foundation, which has granted millions of dollars to multiple worthy causes since inception, including a $1 million gift in December 2008 to establish a Critical Need Response Fund at Foundation For The Carolinas to shelter, feed, clothe and keep warm Mecklenburg County families in dire circumstances through the winter months of the economic crisis.
Foundation For The Carolinas administered the effort, which was a partnership of The Leon Levine Foundation, Mecklenburg Ministries, the Charlotte Chamber of Commerce and United Way of Central Carolinas.
The Levine's gift set a new standard in support for human services, inspiring residents across the region to give an additional $2 million to the effort. Fifty-two nonprofits throughout the region were enabled to assist thousands of families in crisis – people the Levines may never know but who will be forever grateful for their generosity.

Live Report From North Korea Cut Short After NBC Reporter Describes Failed Missile as 'Enormous Embarrassment'
North Koreans appear even more prickly about criticism of their dear leadership as American liberals are of theirs.
On her MSNBC show last night, Rachel Maddow was interviewing NBC foreign correspondent Richard Engel live from Pyongyang shortly after a long-range missile launched by the communist regime broke apart and crashed into the sea. (video after page break)
"This is an enormous embarrassment for North Korea," Engel said after describing the three-stage missile with a model of the rocket. "And what's critical to see now is how the North Korean government is going to explain this to the world and explain this to its own people."
Maddow responded, "Richard, given what you have been told about what the missile launch was for in North Korea, the fact that you are there at all, that they are letting you see things, that they are trying to show this off to you in some way or another, given ..."
At which point Engel pointed to his earpiece and said, "I no longer have audio."
Maddow, clearly disappointed -- "I can talk, I can hear Richard, but he can't hear me? Richard still can't hear me?" (No response from a still-visible Engel). "All right, we have lost our connection with Richard, with Richard Engel in Pyongyang."
After the interview was abruptly cut short -- curiously close to Engel's observation of the botched launch as hugely embarrassing to North Korea -- Maddow was at a loss to explain what happened and did not say anything about technical difficulties. (I posted a longer version of the segment at YouTube).
Earlier while talking with Maddow, Engel said the North Korean "minder" shepherding Western journalists during their stay in the country reacted comically when asked about the errant missile -- which the reporters learned about from news sources outside of North Korea, not from the minder.
"We were met with a completely blank stare and then he shrugged his shoulders and ran out of the room," Engel said.

To be fair to DPRK on their rocketry attempt; we must remember how many missiles the USA launched that ended up in failure. The problem is the DPRK is publicizing these launches. They should learn how to do it and do it right before they publicize. We have still had some doozies in our program and if it ever starts up again we l will have more.

To be fair, most of our early launches were on newsreel too. (This was long before the internet in case you didn't know) This is the 21st century and the norks have the benefit of Pakistan's technology. Where do you think they got the bomb? They may get it right sooner or later but they are incompetent boobs for the most part. The only surprise about this whole affair is that the norks aren't lying to their own people about the failure.

Funding opportunities
The Role of Ion Channels in the Differentiation of Embryonic Stem Cells
Funding Type:
SEED Grant
Grant Number:
Funds requested:
$400 000
Funding Recommendations:
Not recommended
Grant approved:
Public Abstract:
Stem cells have unique potential to cure human disease. Their ability to give rise to virtually any type of cell has given hope to the public for curing all types of ailments. For this reason, stem cells continue to capture the headlines of the mass media and esteemed scientific journals. Embryonic stem cells (ESCs) are probably the best known stem cell available to researchers. Most of our knowledge about these important cells comes from studies in animals, particularly in mice. Recent animal studies have revealed amazing success at curing neurological diseases such as Parkinson's Disease (PD). It is no coincidence that progress has been made first in the area of the brain. The nervous system seems to be the default pathway for many stem cell lines that have been studied. The research proposed here endeavours to discover why the cells follow this pathway. The cells we will study are those that have the most benefit to patients, human embryonic stem cells (hESCs). We know that as stem cells become nerve cells (when they mature or differentiate), they develop special abilities as part of their function in the brain. They must carry electrical signals to function. These electrical properties are akin to the signal carried to your TV by a cable. The signal has to propagate to your TV through the signal cable. Neurons do the same thing using special proteins called ion channels. Ion channels are proteins stuck in the cell membrane that allow small ions like sodium and potassium to move back and forth across the cell membrane to change their electrical state. These channels have been implicated in many human diseases. Their proper functioning is critical to human health. The research proposed here seeks to understand how these channels affect the differentiation of hESCs. That is, we want to find out exactly what type of ion channels are made by stem cells as the mature into brain cells. We also want to know when the ion channels are made by the cells. Thus we hope to discover the function of ion channels in the differentiation of these important cells. Once we have this knowledge we can begin to manipulate the channels to affect stem cell differentiation or their cellular fate. That is, we want to be able to make the cells mature into the type of cell we need. There are many known molecules that are known to affect ion channel function. Some of these open the channels and some of them block them. By using these agents, we can manipulate the function of the ion channels to make the stem cells follow a certain fate. This knowledge will be another tool scientists can use to manipulate the stem cell fate. The more we can fine tune the differentiation of stem cells, the better we will be at designing therapies to cure any number of human diseases.
Statement of Benefit to California:
The research project proposed here seeks to understand how ion channels affect the differentiation of human embryonic stem cells (hESCs). The ability to direct the differentiation of these cells has high potential for use in alleviating a variety of diseases. This will potentially have tremendous medical benefit to the people of California. Funding of this work will also employ and allow the training of up to 4 University students, one technician, and one faculty collaborator in human stem cell work. This training will benefit the State of California by creating trained stem cell workers that will continue to keep our work force well trained and competitive in this growing field.
Review Summary:
SYNOPSIS: This applicant proposes to study ion channels in hESCs that are differentiating into neurons. The Principal Investigator (PI) will be using Western-blotting, immunocytochemistry and RT-PCR to identify the channels, and will use patch clamping and other methods to characterize the channels. The PI will determine whether the expression and modulation of ion channel activity has an effect on controlling stem cell differentiation. The work aims to characterize ion channel expression profiles in differentiating hESC neurons using both NIH-approved and non-approven cell lines. These will be compared against human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells that are differentiating into neurons. SIGNIFICANCE AND INNOVATION: The goal of this application is to evaluate the expression of ion channels during hES cell differentiation into neurons and then to test whether blockade of the channels expressed has any influence on subsequent differentiation. There is a need to characterize the channel distribution changes in developing hESCs and also in human umbilical cord mesenchymal cells. The proposal suggests some important work, including the electrophysiological characterization of channels on developing cells, but this is not a particularly innovative or original proposal. STRENGHTS: The investigator is experienced with the proposed methods and is likely to be able to carry out the proposed experiments rigorously. The PI has published several studies of channel expression in other cells, and the applicants have already begun similar experiments using cells derived from human umbilical cord matrix (HUCM). Importantly, they demonstrate the ability to culture and record from these cells. WEAKNESSES: There are several scientific concerns with this proposal. The investigator does not consider the question of heterogeneity and how to deal with the likely situation of having a mixed population of cells that would be very hard to analyze/interpret. The applicant also does not discuss which specific antibodies will be used to evaluate neural differentiation or channel subunit expression. Moreover, the criteria for concluding that neural differentiation has occurred seem problematic. The cells in Fig. 2 and Fig. 5 are described as neurons based solely on their phase morphology, which is not adequate for drawing this conclusion. Another weakness of these studies is that they are not particularly innovative. In addition, the Investigator has not been very productive since completing his PhD in 1998 and doing a postdoctoral fellowship from 1998-2001. The PI has published only four papers since 1998. DISCUSSION: The success of this application is critically dependent upon the reliable identification of the cell types being evaluated. The proposal needs to lay out specific criteria for assigning identity to each cell that is recorded. Also, it would be helpful if the applicant provided some data to suggest that it is feasible to carry out detailed electrophysiological analyses of the cells and strategies for dealing with mixed populations of cells.
