Future of Nursing Initiative
FRIDAY, March 9 (HealthDay News) -- Hospital health care workers (HCWs) are more likely to receive the seasonal influenza vaccination if they believe it works and are committed to preventing this highly contagious virus, according to research published in the April issue of Occupational & Environmental Medicine.
Josien Riphagen-Dalhuisen, M.D., of the University of Groningen in the Netherlands, and colleagues conducted a meta-analysis of the literature and identified 13 studies with data to assist in determining predictors of seasonal influenza vaccination in hospital HCWs.
The researchers found that hospital HCWs were at least twice as likely to receive the seasonal influenza vaccination if they knew the vaccine to be effective, were willing to prevent influenza transmission, believed that influenza is highly contagious and that prevention is important, and had a family that typically is vaccinated.
"We therefore recommend targeting these predictors when developing new influenza vaccination implementation strategies for hospital HCWs," the authors write.

by Bierce, Ambrose Gwinnett
Publisher:See Sharp Press
The funniest people I know all seem to have a copy of the Ambrose Bierce classic, The Devil's Dictionary, begun in 1881, which is not Satanic, but is certainly one of the most cynical (yet truthful) collections of bubble-popping definitions for many of our most sacred cows. This edition also contains a considerably longer modern successor to Bierce's classic, by Chaz Bufe, written in the same spirit but updated for the 1990s. Highly recommended to anyone who craves the truth behind the pretense.

EDIT: Sorry, wrong forum, I'll put it in the right place.
I'm asking this because I'm not sure if this is a bug or not, so I don't know if it's worthy of reporting.
Basically, I'm playing Akali, Riven tower dives. I've done no damage to her actual health, but she stays too long and before the final tower shot kills her, I Shadow Dash to her and deal damage to her new shield from her E (Valor), but not enough to break it. Tower breaks through the rest and kills her, and it ends up being counted as an execution rather than a kill. Is this a bug or is it supposed to be that way?

|Kitchen staples that soothe sunburns, boost your mood, and more.-By Sarah Richards
If all you do is eat it, the food in your fridge and pantry isn't living up to its full potential. The latest research shows that everyday foods like vinegar and yogurt can be used as home remedies, for health and beauty challenges ranging from sunburns to a bout of the blues.
(Getty Images)
| Use it to: Soothe a sunburn
Soak a cotton ball in apple cider vinegar to treat fried skin, says Bonnie McMillen, a nurse at the University of Pittsburgh at Bradford.
(Getty Images)
| Use it to: Boost your mood
Aromatherapy research suggests that the scent of lemon oil can lift spirits. Add lemon zest to iced tea; inhale the aroma.
(Getty Images)
| Use it to: Keep your skin looking fresh
Use plain Greek yogurt as a mask: The live bacteria remove toxins, and the acidity balances the pH of skin, says Dharma Singh Khalsa, MD, author of "Food as Medicine."
(Getty Images)
| Use it to: Reduce skin irritation
Dip a washcloth in a strong iced brew and press onto skin to help relieve inflammation, suggests Valori Treloar, MD, a dermatologist in Newton, Mass., and coauthor of "The Clear Skin Diet."

Kukla's Korner Hockey
Roenick Still Deciding Retirement or Not
by Alanah McGinley on 07/16/07 at 02:36 PM ET
Comments (0)
From The Hockey News,
Contrary to an earlier report, Phoenix Coyotes center Jeremy Roenick has not decided to retire from the NHL.
According to a statement issued Monday to The Hockey News.com by his agent, Neil Abbott, Roenick "is considering all of his options, including retirement, (but) has made no final decision."
Abbott added that a formal announcement regarding Roenick's final decision will be made in the next few weeks.
The recent death of Roenick's father-in-law played a factor in the famously personable NHL star's reticence to confirm a Philadelphia Inquirer story that he was ending his 18-year playing career immediately.
*Frankly, we always thought it was a little strange that so many were reporting Roenick's retirement like it was a 'done deal' based on nothing more than a text message.

Tag attempt #2 and I have to say that I am so pleased with the color. So pleased, that I had to make a few "adjustments" to cover up some blunders after I got the color of the tag just right. The quote was orginially supposed to be stamped directly on the tag and embossed, however my stamping skills just aren't there yet. Same thing for the flourish underneath the butterflies. There I just got carried away with different colors. In the end, I couldn't be happier. Just picked the stamp set up yesterday at a LHS so I had to do something last night! ;-) I hope you enjoy and as always I welcome any tips or suggestions. TFL.

Reusing water is the ultimate conservation program, and California state authorities apparently agree. They approved Inland Empire Utilities Agency's $30 million plan to build new, or improve, infrastructure necessary to recycle an additional 10,000 acre-feet of wastewater annually to be funded almost entirely through the stimulus package.
The projects, which began construction last summer and are scheduled to be completed by this fall, include:
In addition, two greenfield residential developments are fully dual-plumbed, meaning that each house has a treated-water piping system and a separate system with purple-colored pipes indicating recycled water.
CEO and General Manager Richard Atwater attributes his team's success in accessing stimulus funds to a combination of factors: Employees paid attention to and followed tedious application details; and the project promotes conservation, so it received credit for promoting energy savings and lowering greenhouse gas emissions.
And, finally, plain old luck: Design/planning had been completed, so the project was shovel-ready.

Govt seeks shop for banks sell-off
UK Financial Investments, the company that manages the Government's shareholdings in banks, is looking for a creative agency to prepare a campaign to inform the public about future divestments.
TSB: Lloyds Banking Group is divesting the bank as part of its government bailout conditions
The pitch, which is handled by the Crown Commercial Service, is open to roster agencies. They have untilthe end of June to respond to the RFI, with pitches planned to take place in early July.
The brief is for a multichannel campaign to explain any plans by the Government to sell its shares in Lloyds Banking Group and the Royal Bank of Scotland Group. UKFI is prepared to support the initiative with £3-4 million in media spend.
A spokeswoman for UKFI said: "UKFI continues to assess all possible options to dispose of the Government's shareholdings. As the Chancellor [George Osborne] made clear in his autumn statement last year, this includes considering sales to retail investors. Any decision to sell will be based on achieving value for money for the taxpayer."
The Government bailed out a number of banks during the financial downturn and set up UKFI in 2008 to oversee these stakes. At present, the Government owns roughly 80 per cent of RBS Group and about 25 per cent of Lloyds Banking Group.
UKFI's most recent divestment was in March, when it sold 7.78 per cent of its stake in Lloyds Banking Group for £4.2 billion.
Lloyds Banking Group is spinning off TSB as a separate company this year. The relaunch of the bank was backed by a £30 million ad campaign created by Joint.
The Crown Commercial Service is also handling a pitch for the Department for Business, Innovation & Skills, which is seeking an agency to promote apprenticeships.

Hearing and child safety
Staff Report
According to a study performed by the Better Hearing Institute (BHI), there is a direct correlation between a caregiver's ability to hear and the safety of the babysitting environment for the children.
"If your child's babysitter is one of the 24 million people who need hearing instruments and don't have them, there could be problems," warns Donald R. Kleindl II, BC-HIS, ACA, MCAP, director of Professional Hearing & Audiology Clinics. "The risks of not hearing a smoke or carbon monoxide detector could be fatal. Not hearing weather warnings could expose them, and your children, to a flood, tornado or hurricane. Spending too much time speech reading while driving can cause a crash, as can failing to hear a siren."
Kleindl II added: "Older children have been known to take advantage of an adult's hearing loss and get 'permission' to do something the adult wouldn't agree to if they understood what the child said. The emotional repercussions of untreated hearing loss, depression and anxiety, can also affect children."
Kleindl cites one case involving a 66-year-old man who was aggravated that his wife brought him to the clinic for a hearing evaluation, and decided that he did not need the amplification the specialist recommended. Eighteen months later, while watching his 3-year-old grandson, the child opened the screen door of the living room and wandered down the street. A neighbor found and returned the child. "After reluctantly receiving his hearing aids, he realized how much he had put his own grandson in jeopardy," Kleindl said.
Kleindl II said one of the biggest concerns about hearing loss and childcare is failing to hear smoke detectors. The vast majority of people with hearing loss have difficulty hearing high-pitched sounds, which is what smoke detectors emit. Studies have shown that young children do not respond to smoke detectors, needing to hear a familiar voice calling to them by name to wake up and leave the house.
"In general, the inability to hear well can pose real safety dangers to all of us," Kleindl II said. "People who cannot hear well can be unsafe drivers, as they sometimes cannot hear emergency vehicles or may spend too much time with their eyes off the road in an attempt to communicate with a passenger. People who ride bicycles need to hear what's coming up behind them. And the caretaker must be forever vigilant to environmental cues of impending danger such as a home intruder or a child crying in another room.
"My advice for anyone who is concerned that a caregiver or family member can't hear properly is to make an appointment with a hearing health professional for a hearing examination," Kleindl II said. He also adds that modern hearing instruments can help most people hear better and provide a safer environment for themselves and others.
Professional Hearing and Audiology Clinics offers free hearing examinations for any adults who suspect they are experiencing a hearing loss. A complete hearing examination is a vital first step in assessing a patient's hearing needs. Professional Hearing & Audiology Clinics may be contacted at (815) 964-3131, 1415 E. State St., Rockford.

Winnipeg Free Press - ONLINE EDITION
Public debt management, the Alberta example
Alberta has joined other Canadian provinces by opting for questionable debt financing of infrastructure developments. Without better policies and practices, Alberta's public debt can become an unruly beast.
The data on provincial debt indicates that Alberta has plenty of room to borrow more money. In the recently released Macdonald-Laurier Institute study, Provincial Solvency and Federal Obligations, Alberta's March 2011 net debt is in a negative position, indicating that its low level of debt is outweighed by its financial assets.
But now Alberta's opposition politicians, and indeed her taxpayers, are putting Premier Alison Redford's decision to borrow more money under the microscope. As an outside commentator, (I reside in New Zealand but work with local governments in canada), the decision represents an opportunity to deal with public sector debt from "the get go."
Fortunately, Alberta's problem is quite different from the usual circumstances where public debt, largely due to a lack of forethought, has become unsustainable. The debt is probably sustainable.
But there are some principle-based guidelines that can keep the provincial financial policies manageable and sustainable.
The policies inter alia clearly recognize the equity perspectives of both current and future taxpayers. In principle, debt funding permits investment in public assets whose immediate productivity gains are desirable. The acquisition of this type of debt should not be tied to capital expenditure limitations.
So how should this important public debate proceed?
Our experience here in New Zealand may be useful. The principle recognizes the connection between current and future benefits of asset ownership by roughly matching the future benefits with the relevant debt funding.
In practice, this is more often than not achieved by matching the future benefits of the asset with the repayment term (number of years) of the debt. This will reduce the level of debt, a desirable outcome, because long life assets (say of 30 or more years) last longer than the debt repayment, (say 15 to 20 years).
Here are four public debt management principles that could guide the Alberta government. Of course, a full description of these principles would be too long to include here.
• Some provincial debt is desirable, but debt servicing costs must be sustainable relative to taxpayer affordability;
• Debt must never be used to meet present operating expenditures because these expenditures only have current benefits.
• The decision to borrow will obviously favour projects that deliver reasonable debt servicing revenue streams.
• Debt management parameters must be set so they adhere to principles of both democracy and good management.
These are the cardinal policy principles, but there are many more considerations that are required to support good public sector debt management policies. Many of these considerations directly relate to the political influences.
These four principles will inevitably come under political attack, reflecting the pervasive temptation of governments to try and increase debt maxima, to stretch debt benchmarks and, if unregulated, to raid debt repayment funds. Invariably these ill-advised escapades are made for politically-attractive reasons... most often (surprise-surprise) at times just prior to elections.
Another important control factor is the regulator in the exercise of disciplining governments which forces governments to comply with public accountability regulations. Central to all controls, however, are active, informed and independent citizens who want good, but cost-effective, government.
No doubt, it takes concerted, conscious efforts by many people to control public debt. The legitimate concerns of those who oppose any debt funding often turns on their fears of being savaged by an unruly beast — debt.
In the absence of proper controls, a savaging is possible. The human factors alone, that is the self-interest of the politicians if left to their own devices, will play ringmaster to the beast while running a circus.
Alberta, with careful forethought and principled planning, can learn "from New Zealand and the others." The province has this one-time opening shot at getting its debt management right. But, further work needs to be done by politicians and citizens.

He is a New Zealander who works on financial policy and performance improvements with local governments in Australasia and Canada. He is the author of the NZLG Annual financial sustainability League Table and the Base Stats with Trends Council performance reports.

An Elmbrook School District official said students at Fairview South School, 3525 Bermuda Boulevard, are in no danger after a brief lockdown this morning.
The elementary school, which serves about 60 special-needs students ages 12 to 20, went on lockdown for about 30 minutes as students arrived for class.
Anne Moore, director of communications for the district, said school staff members were notified of a threat and immediately contacted authorities.
"Staff was made aware of a specific threat that a specific student had threatened to bring a gun to school," Moore said.
School staff provided Brookfield police with the name of the student and a description of the vehicle he likely would be arriving in.
"They intercepted him when he arrived and searched both him and the vehicle," Moore said. "They did detain him for questioning and no credible threat was found."
Moore said other students weren't in any danger and were allowed to enter the school building.

By: Stuart Dyson, KOB Eyewitness News 4
She told us her ex-boyfriend drugged her, tied her up, beat her, and raped her. Now Albuquerque police detectives say she's a liar.
An Albuquerque man is charged with helping Princess Chavez of Albuquerque try to frame her ex-boyfriend for the crimes and send him to prison. On June 23, Princess Chavez came to Eyewitness News 4 with the shocking story of how her ex assaulted her in her trailer, twice, and how the police had not arrested him or charged him with any crime. We put the story on hold and now detectives say that ex-boyfriend has a "valid" alibi and the Princess was lying to try to put him behind bars.
Police photographs of Princess in the hospital show a very convincing-looking victim with many bruises and contusions. She told police and us that her ex forced her to take an overdose of prescription medicine and then knocked her out with a punch to the right side of her head. She said she woke up the next morning hogtied and hurt – badly hurt.
"I remember waking up on my bed," Princess said in an interview we shot in silhouette because she told us she didn't want to be identified. "I had a sock in my mouth or what I later found out was a sock. I was duct-taped. My arms were duct-taped together behind my back. My legs were duct-taped together behind my back."
"We found her hog-tied," her next door neighbor Viola Kimbro confirmed. "It was duct-tape and it had kind of pink stuff on it. I couldn't tell you what the pattern was. She was kind of in and out of consciousness. Oh, she was very beat up. Oh, she had bruises all over her! He had kicked her apparently in the head. Her arms were all beat up."
But police say Princess got another man, not her ex-boyfriend, but an Albuquerque man named Ronald Duncan to rough her up in a scheme to frame her ex, send him to prison, and activate some credit cards she applied for in her ex's name. Duncan is now charged with four counts of tampering with evidence in connection with kidnapping, aggravated battery, aggravated burglary and conspiracy charges.
"Well, I guess I'm not in any position to make any comments at this time, until I have gotten to see my attorney," Duncan said after a court appearance Friday. "So thank you."
Princess Chavez has not been arrested – at least not yet. Police say she admitted to the attempted frame-up and complained that Duncan went too far when he beat her up. She repeated that complaint to us in a phone call Friday afternoon. Police say they actually have a cell phone video from Duncan's cell phone that shows Princess and Duncan talking about what kind of tape to use to tie her up – and for him to "beat her up a little bit".

Google Releases An AutoFDO Converter For Perf In LLVM
Published on 15 April 2014 02:21 PM EDT
Written by
Michael Larabel
Comment On This Article
Google has released a port of their GCC AutoFDO utility for LLVM for directing optimizations back into the compiler from the Linux kernel perf support.
AutoFDO is short for the Automatic Feedback Directed Optimizer that uses the Linux kernel's perf to collect sample profiles and to then pass that translated profile data back into the compiler so it's able to better optimize code generation of the targeted perf'ed binary to yield better performance. AutoFDO was originally written for GCC and can be found via
The GCC AutoFDO was written by Dehao Chen at Google while now fellow Google engineer and compiler expert Diego Novillo has ported this tool to read a profile generated by Linux Perf and make it compatible with LLVM's sample-based profiler. With the prof support you'll need to be using the Linux 3.4 kernel or newer and the LLVM code from its latest trunk.
Details and instructions on using AutoFDO for LLVM can be found via the
mailing list release announcement

Just a couple of quick questions about thornmail.
It says it affects standard attacks. I assume that means only auto attack damage and not spells. I guess this means it also effects things like parley, spray and pray and blitz punch ability.
It says that it returns 25% of damage taken. Is that before or after the damage you recieve has been modified by armor?
It says it returns the damage as magic damage. I assume this means that your opponent has the chance to reduce the damage using his MR.
Come on guys nobody can answer this??
If no one from the community how about the devs?
Junior Member
I've also raised the question in another thread: Do Ability Power boosts add onto this magic damage returned to the enemy? Would really like to know since this would be an interesting item to get with spell casters that stack a lot of Ability Power. But nobody seems to know as no one replied to the question...
I need to know how they stack too........eventually all the other question would
be very interesting to know because till now. Its a very underused item.
Hopefully, it would be a solution for master yi late games
2 thorns would nail him
ah well.....waitinf for answer too
Baron Corm
Critical Error
Just fyi, I already buy this item when vs'ing a Yi. The armor it gives you means that when he hits you for 1000, you only take like 500ish. However, the proc hits him as 25% of 1000, so it hits him for 250. You still get hit for more damage than he does, but at least he gets hit for something.
Also, you should know that the damage he gets hit with is reduced, so with low end MR he will only take 200ish damage. It is still something being thrown back at him though. And still a lot less he is throwing at you due to the high armor.
Returning 25% of the damage taken means out of the 100% damage you take, you only get hit 75% and you damage your opponent for that 25%.
So for example, if you have the Thornmail, and Alistar hits you for 1k damage. You would only receive 750 damage, and do 250 magic damage to Alistar.
it returns dmg equal to 25% of the attackers ad before dmg calculations if im not mistaken and yes it can be reduced by magic resist

"Serving as a faculty evaluator for the American Council on Education (ACE) is both an honor and a privilege. As someone who personally benefited from ACE recommendations as a young Sailor, I was compelled to serve. Upon completing my first review, I was overwhelmed with the professionalism, academic rigor and high ethical standards of an ACE review team. The credit recommendations derived from an ACE review are critically reviewed and measured against the same standards expected from accredited learning institutions across the country. Working in a team with other professors from colleges and universities across the nation benefited my professional development in seeing how new courses and programs are being developed (and offered-many n a blended learning environment) to answer the needs of the public and private sectors. It is a great networking opportunity. As I participated in more reviews I enjoyed seeing how organizations improve both their academic materials and learning assessments over the years to parallel courses provide by learning institutions; some of which surpass requirements for college courses I have developed and teach for the American Military University. I strongly urge any professor to heed the call if the ACE team requests his/her time. ACE participation should be on every college professors bucket list!"
Robert Dawkins, Associate Professor, American Military University
"I feel privileged and honored to be a part of the American Council on Education (ACE) knowing that the work we do as evaluators will help our military with access opportunities to higher education. My years of association with ACE have allowed me to better understand the sacrifices of our military and to also see first-hand the excellence in training our armed forces provide. Bridging the gap between the military training and the world of civilian higher education has also provided me the opportunity to work with excellent (ex-military and non-military) members of academia from around the country. The high academic standards set out by ACE and the help and coordination provided by their excellent professional staff makes the entire evaluation process a most rewarding experience."
Juan Henriquez, Director of Academic Computing, University of New Orleans
"After signing up to be a faculty evaluator in 2010, I did not know what to expect on my first review, but I was definitely surprised at how much I learned from my team, which consisted of faculty members from schools of varied sizes, concentrations, and geographic locations. We were a "team" from the moment we shook hands, we got to know each other during 2 days of sharing insights into how our respective schools would rate the curriculum, and several of us parted on the second day as friends I still stay in touch with on a regular basis. I have enjoyed the process so much over the past 3 years that I am now a national coordinator for ACE - leading the faculty teams.
I believe that any faculty member can benefit from being part of an ACE team, and ACE provides a unique opportunity to fully utilize your training as an educator and professional, and you will also learn ways to facilitate the academic initiatives at your place of work. Also important for me is that I know I am making a real contribution to the quality of education that our business and military leaders receive, and for any instructor who has witnessed a student have a "Eureka!" moment - that is what it often feels like to work on an ACE review."
Brien Walton, Instructor, University of California - Berkeley
"Being a ACE faculty evaluator for military programs is a rewarding endeavor especially when I see how it helps the service members further their education I also get to work with faculty members from around the country."
George Boulware, Distinguished Professor of Business Administration, Lipscomb University
"As an ACE reviewer, I have had the pleasure of working with interdisciplinary experts who challenge me to be a better educator. It provides me with additional experience in adult learning evaluation and this has changed the way I work with and assess adult learners. I particularly enjoy working on military evaluations. It is an honor to review the high-level education our men and women in the military receive and it is a joy to be able to do something to help them when they leave the service."
Dawn Garzon, Professor of Nursing, University of Missouri- St. Louis
