FLAVOUR - Friendly Location-aware Conference Aid with PriVacy Observant ArchitectURe
Muthukrishnan, Kavitha and Meratnia, Nirvana and Lijding, Maria (2005) FLAVOUR - Friendly Location-aware Conference Aid with PriVacy Observant ArchitectURe. [Report]
|Context-aware applications are emerging on the daily basis and location information proves to be one of the key components to develop context-aware applications upon. This stems from the fact that location information enables and facilitates reasoning about what users are doing (user's behavioural patterns) and what users are interested in. Over the years many localization algorithms have been evolved to determine the location of entities using various technologies. In this paper, a novel localization technique using the geometrical properties of the building to increase accuracy, thus eliminating the need for calibration is presented. In addition a privacy-sensitive, location-aware service architecture called FLAVOUR is proposed, which utilizes the presented localization technique. FLAVOUR uses existing WLAN infrastructure for cost efficiency, and uniquely incorporates the location information into Jini service discovery platform. A new method of classifying existing WLAN localization techniques is introduced and the important evaluation criteria for assessing such techniques are discussed.

Tweet Smears Hospital's Discharge Incentive Campaign
A tweet decrying a Baltimore hospital's effort to speed patient discharges implied that patient safety was being put at risk. How much damage was done to the hospital's reputation remains to be seen.
Tweet from @Nurse_Rachel_
The way the tweet from @Nurse_Rachel_ made it sound, a campaign by 472-bed Sinai Hospital in Baltimore rewards nurses with $10 gift cards for kicking patients out of the hospital before they're ready for discharge.
"I'm sorry very sick patient not ready to go home, but I want to win a $10 gift card!" read one inflammatory tweet from the account of Rachel Amanda, RN, whose profile boasts, "Here to care for you. Baltimore." Another of her tweets about the incentive program that began Monday is pictured at right.
What she tweeted was hardly the true story, which I'll explain in a moment. But the damage was already done; the tweet was rapidly retweeted. (And has since been taken down.)
@Nurse_Rachel_'s followers, including journalists and healthcare providers, piled on, appending their retweets with expletive-laced comments. "What?! That's crazy," "Grossly misguided" and "nice to see patient safety comes first," they wrote.
Naturally I was intrigued. In my decades of healthcare reporting, I've seen campaigns with original good intentions painfully backfire, with opposite consequences smearing a hospital's reputation.
Comments are moderated. Please be patient.
LL (8/30/2013 at 12:38 AM)
I think the real issue is the fact that the nurse tweeted about it. Nothing wrong with the program and I'm sure there was no ill-will. But, from a PR perspective, sending the tweet was a fail. You never want to put your employer in a reactionary & defensive position. Especially when the intent was meant to improve, not harm. I'm not sure I understand why some people continue to tweet exactly what they are thinking. And you definitely don't want to do that when it relates to your job.
Christine Pittman (8/29/2013 at 7:26 PM)
I don't agree with an employee of any institution voicing a concern over Twitter, especially in a manner that leaves out the facts. Having said that, we should consider the crucial information that is exchanged during the discharge process. The nurse, pharmacy and case management staff must interpret and respond to the provider's discharge orders. Those roles are responsible for giving the patient and family their best opportunity to succeed in the post hospitalization period. Just as the spokesperson said, Nursing staff has a lot to do to finalize paperwork, communicate discharge instructions to the patients and family, arrange for transportation, find the patients' belongings, and continue to care for other patients." In addition, there may be prescritions that just showed up to be filled, follow up appointments to be made, discrepancies to be resolved, etc. This is not McDonalds. We have to do the right thing and make certain the patient is set up for positive outcomes.
Nursenat67 (8/29/2013 at 3:07 PM)
Sadly, there are some nurses who "lolly gag" because they don't want to get the time consuming admission. All discharges must have a Physician's order and that is up to his or her medical judgement.

Canik TP9..Quick Look
What do you think about this video?
uptowned: 'Janic' would be the correct pronunciation. Greetings from Turkey ;)!
n4ktz: Turkey is no longer a friend of U.S. DONT BUY THEIR PRODUCTS. BUY AMERICAN.
TierOperator: What stock is that on the AK
GamerNxUSN: So was that a range and carry kit or does the base model come with all that? I mean all that for 350 bucks? Why WOULDN'T I want to get one of these?
CİCO GF: General Directorate of Security polymer body 25 thousand units for the first time its tender arms, Samsun, "Janik" brand produced by model TP9, 50 thousand and 60 thousand won shot test passed with zero error.
Burak Kutval: canik55 tp9 made in Turkey.
ArticWolves: Beautiful handgun , my mom has this gun
ali veli: Sexy gun Canik
Toyotatony91: Do you carry it with one in the chamber?
Creighton Engen: Just picked one of these up for $309.00 locally. (05/29/14) Only a few rounds in, but a good gun so far. All the reviews seem to say it is a deal.
zonseeker 137: To all you TP-9 owners. The Bulldog ambidextrous hip holster size 21 fits this gun like a glove. I originally bought it for the Hi point .45 but it also fits the TP-9
elireloaded: Also does it have last round hold open and adjustible sights?
Brian Peterson: JOHN Ick.
rockey balboa: um, um, um, umm, umm, um after every sentence lol
Dennis S: Like you,I was on the fence on this one. But, since I've got the sw99 in 40Cal., and centerfire systems had it for $299.I took a chance and got one in titanium. I cleaned it well, and took it out to the range. I used ppu 115gr., and couldn't get more than 4 rounds to fire in a row. I was getting light primer strikes. ordered different ammo, this time blazer 115gr. aluminum casings, same result! I was wondering if you've heard of any issues with this? Couldn't find any instructions on how to remove the firing pin from the slide. My next step will be to call Century Arms to see if there is an issue with this model, or if it's just the one I've got. There's machine marks where the firing pin protrudes, and the extractor grab the casing. maybe that needs to be polished. It looks like it's going back anyway I look at it. Just wondering if you've heard of this problem.
shinobitech13: sounds like solidrev.......holy crap it is?
01bluebusa: Centerfire Systems in Versailles, KY has the black, green, titanium, desert tan and chrome....with case, accessories for $299. Just a heads up!
TheMinime2006: It is very nice because of made in Turkey...
Hobgoblin1975: Trigger pull, I hear a lot of people commenting on trigger pull, which for competition makes sense, BUUUUUTT in any situation where you might be shooting at an actual live human being and they might be shooting back at you, the adrenaline and excitement is going to have you mashing that trigger down with the force of a speeding truck
Captain Keating: He sounds like an episode of Everybody Loves Raymond.
GimliTehDwarf: Had no idea it came with all that stuff...my GF said she likes it so now I might HAVE to get one lol...for her you know?
jmanning229: wow im impressed. nice package for $300.especially with the accessories. i cant find any bad reviews. im buying one in od green
TheSushiandme: TP 9 is decent, but not as good as the Taurus PT 92 or the Beretta 92 fs. Accuracy is good up to 30' and less. At 50' it spreads too much and does about a 12 inch spread group. With the 92s I can get a decent 5 inch or less grouping at 25 yards.
Dan63558: the tp9 and the sccy cpx 2 are the best deals for 9mm pistols, i have both
cakkol: 05-06-07.2013 Test , 50,000 raund "0" problem ! now ,the new Turkish Police pistols (offisiel) CANIK 55 ST9 ...
E Torres: Rev is this uuuu .... crap ur loaded
JKalltheway: The Canik 55 TP-9 looks awesome, I just wish there was aftermarket mags for it. Have you shot it yet? Great review btw
John Franco: That is a sweet looking gun, nice range kit!
22neohenry: ahahahaha, actually the two-tone is growing on me. I just found out though.. on jgsales.com, the all-black is $50 cheaper than the color options. I wouldn't pick tan over black so that's the worst option for me. Normally I wouldn't pay extra for color out of principle but the titanium is just that nice I'm considering it. Who am I kidding I'm a cheap heathen, I'm probably getting the black one. $50 buys a nice chuck of ammo.
türker türkkan: güzel tercih
Afro Prepper: Very nice review, I'd get one of I didn't live in new jerseystan where you can't have 18 rounds. Great duty gun/home defense, but your are correct it's big
OMie Ginah: Kanik diyorlar LOL Bu geri zekalilar beni oldurecekler guldurmekten
OMie Ginah: Yeah if you can find a ammo you can shoot it Cheaper Then Dirt has lower end ammo for 35 bucks LOL....
22neohenry: Definitely sold on titanium. OD green is cool for like a minute, tan is yucky, black is just black, 2-tone is meh. that holster is sweet though, lots of goodies for the money.
clamum: Tan is yucky? Two-tone is meh? YOU FILTHY freakIN HEATHEN
stead750: Nice Walther copy, quality is NATO spec...also good looking buttstock on the WASR
Hottrods1: Love my two i have od green and a dessert tan with hundreds of rounds and no fails finish is awesome :-) really the best deal I have ever got on any gun
Josh Watts: Best review I've seen yet. You just helped me make up my mind. For people concerned with the size and want a hands on feel. Grab hold to a walther ppq. It'll be the same size as the walther with an extended mag.
SOLIDREV30: Nice
clamum: Yeah I'd more than likely just go for black even though I dig the two-tone look. And you're most def right about the difference in savings going to ammo, though $50 goes pretty quick.
Hair Do: Thanks for the tip. I do know it's hard to earn money. But it is much better than working minimum wage at mcdonolds. Being an hair stylist does get tips and I end up making decent money. Plus it allows me to be creative sometimes and make customer's dream come to reality.
