Doctor–Patient Ethics
Quinn Phillips
November 21, 2012
As patients — which, inevitably, all people with diabetes are — we place a certain trust in our doctors to act in our interest. Most of the time, what this means is clear: doing whatever is necessary to treat the issue at hand, helping the patient heal. But as a new survey shows, some situations present ethical dilemmas to doctors, and not all agree on the best course of action.
The survey, commissioned by Medscape and published as its 2012 Ethics Report, touched on a variety of topics — from when to end life-sustaining treatment to whether doctor–patient dating is ever acceptable. While some questions produced widespread agreement, others saw a nearly even split (doctors were also given the choice of "it depends" rather than yes or no on all questions). Many questions dealt with issues related to presenting or withholding information from patients. How a doctor feels about many of these questions could, therefore, be of great interest to his or her patients.
One topic that is likely to ignite strong emotions is whether it is acceptable to direct scarce resources toward a younger rather than an older patient. In the survey, 39% of doctors stated that they would never do this, while 27% declared that in some situations they would. Among the doctors who said they might allocate resources based on age, life expectancy and the fact that in a crisis, split-second decisions must often be made about whom to save were mentioned as reasons. Doctors completely opposed to age-based allocation of resources mentioned that not all younger people live longer or "more valuable" lives, and that human life is precious and always worth helping or saving.
Another controversial topic from the survey is whether a patient who is "non-adherent" or who overuses resources should be dismissed. Perhaps surprisingly, doctors were nearly evenly split on this topic, with 32% answering yes, 33% no, and 35% "it depends." Doctors who answered yes mentioned that in the case of noncompliance, the doctor and patient are clearly not on the same page, so the relationship cannot be productive. Some doctors on both sides of the question drew a distinction between being unable to comply with treatment instructions and refusing to do so. Many people with diabetes, however, may have a more nuanced view of "compliance," since sometimes a treatment may demand a degree of attention that blurs the line between being unable and refusing to follow instructions.
Questions related to doctor–patient honesty provoked a wide variety of responses. While 80% of doctors found it unacceptable to downplay the risks of a procedure if they strongly believed it would help a patient, only 48% found it unacceptable to prescribe a placebo (inactive pill) to a patient intent on receiving treatment even when it is not necessary; 34% expressed a willingness to prescribe a placebo. Since placebos have repeatedly been shown to improve outcomes when patients believe they are being (or might be) treated, some doctors apparently believe that honesty might not always be the best policy.
Perhaps not surprisingly, on the topic of receiving free lunches from representatives of pharmaceutical companies, 72% of doctors believed that they could remain unbiased while accepting such lunches, while 20% believed that they could not remain unbiased. Some doctors scoffed at the notion that a sandwich could make them change their prescribing habits, while others noted that if they developed a friendly relationship with a pharma rep, they might feel pressure without even knowing it. This topic has proven to be extremely controversial in places like Massachusetts, where a law prohibiting giving free lunches to doctors while pitching a drug was weakened earlier this year.
Would you be upset to find that your doctor disagreed with you on these questions, or any others in the survey? Do you believe that complete honesty between doctors and patients is desirable, even if it means conveying a pessimistic outlook that may be demoralizing? On the other side, have you ever exaggerated your efforts to comply with a doctor's instructions? Can doctors receive lunches or gifts while remaining unbiased? Leave a comment below!
I believe that doctors should be truthful but they need to be careful how to talk to the patient. I had a doctor who was very arrogant and hauty when he told me that being diabetic was a downward spiral the rest of my life. I'm an RN which is on my chart so I realize the effects. He also said he bet I would be on insulin within 6 months like that was being a failure. That was about 6 years ago and I'm still not on insulin and doing well. So the attitude of some doctors can be demoralizing. We need to be upbeat in life as much as possible and doctors can be a little more human and not cause stress. Thankfully I don't deal with that doctor anymore and have a good one now.

I do not trust doctors as much as I once did. The over prescribed and suggest too many operations that may or may not be helpful. And yes, doctors can be very demoralizing. I have a good self-fulfilling prophecy for myself, but it seems my current doc does not. I am finding a new doctor. Since my urine shows no blood sugar, my BMI is 22.5 and my NON FASTING glucose is 148, I do not see how I have pre-diabetes. This is esp so since I exercise a lot (not exaggerating) and have a great diet. At the gym today, on the spinning bikes, I met three men who said their docs said they were diabetic, but they could handle it with diet and exercise. (note that we are all in our seventies). Is this all true, or have numbers been lowered too much to sell more drugs and perform more lab tests? I am getting crass I guess. On to the new doc, who is fit (former doc was not) and who believes in diet and exercise.

This cleanser is very similar to DERMAdoctor's Wrinkle Revenge 1 Antioxidant Enhanced Glycolic Acid Facial Cleanser, except that this version includes a slightly greater amount of AHAs. That doesn't make it better, but it does lead to increased concern about using this near the eye. Otherwise, the same comments apply: the AHAs are rinsed from skin before they have a chance to work. The antioxidants are a thoughtful touch, but again, they're of little benefit to skin because they, too, are rinsed down the drain. This is otherwise a standard, but good, water-soluble cleanser for normal to dry skin. It is recommended if you're OK with the AHAs not doing much for skin and if you are willing to avoid using this in the eye area.
Rescues your skin from the ravages of daily life that can prematurely deprive it of a youthful, vibrant glow. This cleanser gently and effectively exfoliates cellular build-up and residue caused by pollution, make-up and excessive surface oils, leaving skin clean and radiant.

The DERMAdoctor line is the brainchild of Kansas City-based dermatologist Dr. Audrey Kunin. Dr. Kunin's Web site retails not only the DERMAdoctor brand but several products from other brands, many of which have ties to specific dermatologic concerns (everything from athlete's foot to warts). Many of these specialty products are available from your local drugstore, but Kunin's site provides helpful, mostly reliable information concerning various skin-care concerns.
We wish her own products followed the strength of her advice, but alas, most do not. This is another dermatologist-developed line with plenty of products whose names and claims make you think they're a cosmetic corrective procedure in a bottle (or, in some cases, a jar, which is never a good packaging move). There are some products to pay attention to, though whether you want to strongly consider them or not comes down to how much you feel comfortable spending (DERMAdoctor products aren't cheap).
DERMAdoctor isn't exactly "your prescription for beautiful skin" but Dr. Kunin gets enough right that her line isn't one to gloss over, particularly if you're shopping for sunscreens, AHA products, and facial cleansers. Those with acne should look elsewhere, because DERMAdoctor's products don't have the solution, despite their cute product names.

Quinn signs bill legalizing civil unions
By Tammy Weber The Associated Press January 31, 2011 9:28PM
Updated: September 24, 2012 6:25AM
Calling it a "day of history," Gov. Pat Quinn on Monday signed historic legislation legalizing civil unions for gay and lesbian couples, making Illinois one of about a dozen states that extend significant legal protections to same-sex couples.
About 1,000 people crowded into the Chicago Cultural Center to watch Quinn, a Democrat, sign the measure that supporters call a matter of basic fairness and opponents decry as a threat to the sanctity of traditional marriage.
"We believe in civil rights and we believe in civil unions," Quinn said before signing the bill.
"Illinois is taking a historic step forward in embracing fairness and extending basic dignity to all couples in our state," John Knight, director of the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender Project of the ACLU of Illinois, said in a written statement issued hours before the bill-signing ceremony.
The law, which takes effect June 1, gives gay and lesbian couples official recognition from the state and many of the rights that accompany traditional marriage, including the power to decide medical treatment for an ailing partner and the right to inherit a partner's property.
Five states already allow civil unions or their equivalent, according to the Human Rights Campaign. Five other states and Washington, D.C., let gay couples marry outright, as do some countries, including Canada, South Africa and the Netherlands.
Illinois law will continue to limit marriage to one man and one woman, and civil unions still are not recognized by the federal government.
Opponents argue the law could increase the cost of doing business in Illinois, while Quinn has said it will make the state more hospitable to businesses and convention planners.
The legislation, sent to Quinn in December, passed 61-52 in the Illinois House and 32-24 in the Senate.
Some hope civil unions are a step toward full marriage for gay and lesbian couples, although sponsors of the civil union bill have said they don't plan to push for legalizing same-sex marriages, which have limited support in the Legislature.
But some conservative groups said the new law is a steppingstone toward legalized same-sex marriage.
"Marriage was not created by man or governments," Illinois Family Institute executive director David E. Smith said Monday. "It is an institution created by God. Governments merely recognize its nature and importance."
Cardinal Francis George and other Catholic leaders also vigorously fought passage of the law. The measure doesn't require churches to recognize civil unions or perform any kind of ceremony, but critics fear it will lead to other requirements, such as including same-sex couples in adoption programs run by religious groups or granting benefits to employees' partners.

'Breaking Dawn Part I' is a dud
In looking back over my reviews of previous movies in the Twilight series, a pattern emerged. I liked the first film, Twilight. but was disappointed by the bland sequel New Moon. Eclipse was next and was my favorite film of the series, bringing tons of action as well as emotional depth to the story.
So it has been good, bad, good ... and, unfortunately, the pattern continues as Breaking Dawn, Part I, despite the vampire wedding of the year, is hands down the worst film in the series to date. It is mostly tedious and toothless and feels at numerous moments more like a Saturday Night Live spoof that a proper continuation of the series.
Bella (Kristen Stewart) and Edward (Robert Pattinson) get married, but not before Bella has a really bad dream about her upcoming nuptials. The wedding comes off without a hitch — although with a bit of werewolf tension around the edges, then it's off to Rio and a beautiful romantic island honeymoon.
For Twilight fans, the consummation of the honeymoon has been a highly anticipated cinematic moment that was carefully crafted to retain the coveted PG-13 rating.
However, the honeymoon bliss is short circuited by Edward's continued reluctance to turn his ladylove into a bloodsucker and by Bella's sudden abdominal pain. Bella is carrying a fetus, but is it a child to be loved or Rosemary's Baby?
The whole demon child plot could have been interesting, but in the hands of the usually competent Bill Condon with a perhaps unredeemable screenplay by Melissa Rosenberg, it lands with a thud. Mostly everybody is sitting around waiting for the baby/demon to be born while the Cullens keep an eye out for the werewolf clan waiting to pounce when the moment is right.
What we have is no action, bad line readings of terrible dialogue and a series of cringe-worthy moments that evoke laughter, in particular when Jacob (Taylor Lautner) makes eye contact with the new baby.
"OMG I thought I was the only one who was laughing at the imprinting scene! Yeah, totally agree with you about this movie."
"what's amazing here is this. Eclipse actually was the furthest from the book. more fake than the others. this last one is most appreciated of all of them if you are a twilight fan. if you not a fan you will always find something wrong with the film. the series has to do with a stroy you are involved in. where you are there, with youir people. it's all one group, and you are included. so it doesn't matter if someone like this critic, who totally misses the point, has anything to sday about it. because it's going to break records because we get it, and that's all that matters"
"Wow, this critic obviously has not read the books because this movie follows the original story line most accurately! When me and my group of 47 friends went to the midnight premier (how many movies can u get that many people together to go see, not many besides twilight saga) we were in shock as to how amazing this movie was. We, along with anyone else we talked to in the theater were more than pleased with how amazing this movie was, in fact it was an outright surprise because we had read some unintelligent reviews like the one posted above! This persons critique is irrelevant, because this person is irrelevant. The End!"
"I totally agree with Jordan. There was nothing funny about the imprinting scene. This movie was the closest to the book, and it was the best movie of the Saga I've ever seen. Sadly, non-Twihards don't understand that, they're just plain stupid, really. Unintelligent remarks like this critic made are totally irrelevant, because this PERSON is irrelevant. The movie IS intended for Twihards, not some kind of f***in noob who doesn't know a thing about the saga. Breaking Dawn Part 1 RULES!!!"
"I entirely agree, this movie played more like a parody of the movie than an actual interpretation of the book. The wedding was so comical I couldn't actually believe they thought it would work. I also disliked the wolves, where they should have been menacing and thinking like a pack, everything felt disjointed and unconnected. I have read the books and I wasn't impressed with them (cliched and stuffy) but I would rather read them than watch the movies.
I honestly can't imagine what Stephanie Meyer must be feeling after watching that mockery of a movie. Movie deals are a dream come true for any author but to have your book's epic conclusion made into a movie that plays like a parody must be heartbreaking."
"I think Ms. Meyer can content herself with counting her money all the way to the bank. (As for any actual thought on Ms. Meyer's part, we need simply refer to her writing itself, which proves conclusively that brainwork isn't exactly her strong suit.) The imprinting scene is-- or was-- hopeless from the get-go: very simply, there was no way to make it work, since there's no escaping its ludicrously grotesque implications (full-grown man "devoting" himself to a baby: sick. The fact that said baby will be expected to be that full-grown man's "mate" when she grows up: sicker still. Oh, and once again: so much for free will, eh, Ms. Meyer...?). But we must tie up all those (very) loose dramatic ends, mustn't we? If Jacob can't have Bella, at least he gets a nice consolation prize! (Yuck.) As for the rest of us (those of us with functioning cerebral cortexes, that is), we can enjoy nice headaches while waiting for this idiocy to end...."
"Thanks for the discussion. Since I have not read the books, I have to base my judgement on what I see on the screen. That's my job Those who have read the book are the ones who can comment on the quality of the adaptation."
"I was just dragged to see this "film" by a friend whose "into it".. I actually half liked the 1st one of course back then all the childish "brooding mopey depressed" behavior kinda fit for kids in their age bracket maybe. But it doesn't cut it when they are suppose to be 18?? time to grow up already. I mean shes getting married why so darn depressed? I just wanted to slip the entire cast a Prozac for god sake! That Bella chick cant act her way out of a paper bag! it was prob the hardest 2 hours of my life in a long time least the refreshments were half decent cause that movie was horrid! if I thought my friend wouldn't have poked me I would have loved to have taken a nap..What the heck was with the blood milk shakes?? she drinks from her sippy cup and all of a sudden wallah she is cured! bad bad baddddddddd"
Twihards, don't rip my head off for saying this, but I enjoyed your reaction to the final Twilight movie, Breaking Dawn, Part II more than the actual movie, although it was a major improvement over the SNL spoof that was Breaking Dawn Part I.
The Twilight Saga: Eclipse is the best of the Twilight films to date. The third film in the popular book series provides a strong layer of emotional complexity to the Twi-hard's favorite love triangle and some enjoyable, sly humor.
The Blind Side is exactly what the coming attractions suggested it was — the story of a homeless young black teenager who is taken in by a rich white family and later finds success as a football star. It is a true story told in a straightforward manner, and thanks to the wonderful lead performances by Sandra Bullock as a feisty real housewife from Memphis, Leigh Anne Tuohy, and Quinton Aaron as Michael Oher, the boy her family eventually adopts, it is an effective story about kindness and smashmouth football. Writer and director John Lee Hancock brings the same family bonding and living-your-dream mentality to this film that he brought to the...

CCTV Security Camera Monitors
CCTV (Closed Circuit Television) is how your video or digital surveillance camera system is operating. Closed circuit- so only you can view the footage. We at Home Security Store offer a decorated selection of CCTV monitors to improve your home monitoring experience. Our CCTV monitors are built to understand Composite, RCA or BNC video signals and they all produce high quality LCD color images.
There are televisions on the market that will hook right into your home security system, but it's always better to have a dedicated monitor. This will save you time spent on confusion and frustration. Dedicated monitors to a specific system will also help you stay organized and focused on you and your family's protection.
If you're just starting to build your home security kit, here's what you should consider when it comes to monitors:
What is the monitor resolution? The greater the resolution, the more crisp and clear the image.
Are there quality built-in speakers? The key word is quality. If your security cameras have built-in audio, make sure your CCTV is doing it justice.
What cables are required and do they come as part of the package? Make sure your DVR outputs and television inputs match up. With today's technology most connections are compatible, but there is no universal connection for every product/manufacturer.
Is there a remote control? Needless to say, remote controls make the viewing experience much easier. It is quite an annoyance if you have change image or sound settings on the television by hand.
From 3.5 to 19 inch models, Home Security Store has the monitor you're looking for.
Minimal Price: $107.00

These pages contain various pieces of information, tips, shell scripts that I gathered or wrote.
My operating system of choice is linux. The very one I installed was slackware and it's still the one I use these days. I have used/installed other distributions in the past, including Red Hat, Caldera, debian, openSuse... But in the end I find that slackware is the one that suits me the best.
I also use live linux systems from a usb stick when I am away and I don't want to use the ubiquitous MS-Crap. These live systems are also useful for carrying tasks such as repairing filesystems, repartionning (non-destructively), or simply for using tools such as texmf, ImageMagick, etc.
One of my usb sticks is set up with a multiboot menu: slax, RIPlinux, pmagic, and grml.
There are also various shell scripts and other tips, tricks, pieces of information...
slackware is a source based distro. When you need a piece of software, basically all you need to do is just grab the source archive, build it (./configure && make), then package the result. In the configure process you'll know whether a library is missing.
Another nice thing about slackware is whenever you need to (re)configure something all you need to do is edit some file(s) with a plain text editor. There's no gui tool that comes afterwards and messes up what you've done or tries to impose on you what the default should be.
I like the modules system in slax. No need to mount the gzipped filesystem to do your tweaks (and use cpio). All you need is build your module, then place it in the modules subdirectory. Next time you boot, it's ready to use.
I first started using some add-on modules from the slax web site. But those were of varying quality. One thing lacking in most of them is the absence of the script to build them from source.
I decided then
(1) to build my own modules from source and
(2) to always provide the building script.
In the process of writing those scripts I wrote a metascript to help me start with a skeleton slaxbuild.
TeX is a state of the art typesetting system. That's what I use whenever I need to output nicely formatted documents. It's good for letters, resumes, math articles, books... You can even typeset music scores. Most of the times, I use the plain variety (over latex).
art stuff / movies
The pages at the art gallery section display a few drawings, paintings I've done in the 1990s.
The movies section include blurbs, pictures of a few movies I've seen and liked. The four directors shown here are very different in style, themes, but they all share a great sense of cinematography.
Aki Kaurismäki is my favorite movie director. His movies have a poetic quality, a quirky sense of humor, and show empathy with the underdogs ...

With China going into space, it looked as if there might be a conflict over ownership of the moon. However, now it's been discovered that it will be impossible to use the moon as a base for space travel or for mining the valuable elements there, because it has almost no water. This is tragic, since the moon contains an element that could solve our oil shortage and greenhouse gas problems.
Charles Arthur writes in The Independent that scientists once thought there was ice at the poles and on the side of the moon which always faces away from the Earth. But new research shows very little ice there. Spacecraft can visit the moon and make limited stays there by bringing?or making?their own water (as the International Space Station does), but long term habitation or industrial use is impossible without a large source of water there.
Space scientist Ian Crawford says, "Water is useful for three reasons: you need it to drink, you can split it using electrolysis powered by sunlight to get oxygen to breathe, and you can recombine its hydrogen and oxygen to create a rocket fuel. Any water at all is extremely helpful if you're setting up a Moon base."
Researcher David Rothery says, "This finding does make colonization of the Moon that much harder."
It remains to be seen if China will announce a change of plans due to this new finding. Chang'e I, China's moon project, aims to map the lunar surface, searching for good landing and base sites. Next, it plans to discover what elements are there and how they?re distributed. The man element they're searching for is Helium-3, which is rare on Earth but plentiful on the moon. In space.com, Julie Wakefield describes it as the perfect fuel: potent, nonpolluting and non-nuclear. There's enough Helium-3 on the moon to power the Earth for thousands of years.
Researcher Gerald Kulcinski says, "Helium-3 could be the cash crop for the moon. When the moon becomes an independent country, it will have something to trade." Helium-3 would have a value of $4 billion a ton.
Instead of announcing NASA's return to the moon, in order to reassert our rights there, as George Bush is expected to do in an upcoming speech, perhaps we should let China claim it and try to find a way, despite the water shortage, to mine the Helium-3. At this point, all pollution control agreements between the U.S. and Europe, such as the Kyoto treaty, are almost useless in the face of the huge, industrializing Chinese population, which uses mostly antiquated, heavily-polluting, coal-burning power plants.

|We're updating our master bath, and the porcelain tile I picked from the tile store is about twice as much as a travertine tile I just saw at Home Depot (on sale). Is there a reason I should avoid this material? I really like the looks of it, but don't want to spend all this money (tear-out and installation...yikes!) if the HD stuff is of such poor quality as to be a big mistake. So what do ya'll think?

| Is there a reason I should avoid this material?
be afraid. Be VERY afraid. Travertine is very easy to make look good enough for sale, and then months or even weeks down the road, it starts to crumble, or the fill starts coming out of all the holes.
Yeah, there's a real GOOD reason not to buy it. Ever hear the cliche anything too good to be true usually is? This is no exception.
- Posted by cruisedirector (My Page) on Mon, Aug 30, 10 at 23:54
|I went to pretty much every tile place in town looking for a filled, honed, medium shade travertine and couldn't find the right thing. I happened to be at my local Lowes and, low and behold, there it was. I needed 16x16 and they were 18x18, but since it was for a smallish bathroom floor, my contractor just cut them down.
I knew it was a risk, but they didn't have any trouble cutting them down (no fill coming out, chipping, etc.). I don't think that the price was half the other places, but it was what I was looking for and have been very happy with it the past 2 months it has been installed.
- Posted by bill_vincent (firstname.lastname@example.com) on Tue, Aug 31, 10 at 10:12
|You're the exception to the rule, then. Between here, the Kitchens Forum, John Bridge's, Floorstransformed, and HGTV (& HGTVPro), I've heard of so many horror stories originating from travertine from either HD or Lowes that there's no way in hell I'd even consider the idea.
|Oh, wow, so much to learn!
Okay, so what about the marble at HD and/or Lowes? They've got an octagon and dot 12 x 12 in a carrara marble that I was considering. Any thoughts/experience/etc on that?
- Posted by bill_vincent (email@example.com) on Tue, Aug 31, 10 at 19:57
|Is it a 12x12 tile or in a 12x12 SHEET of smaller mounted tiles?
|It's the 12 x 12 sheet of smaller mounted tiles (in an octagon and dot pattern, if I recall correctly). Prices out about $9.99/square foot, again, if I recall correctly.
- Posted by moccasinlanding (My Page) on Tue, Aug 31, 10 at 21:37
|May I ask if it is JUST the travertine which is a problem from these stores?
And when you say "fill"....what is the fill and where is it?
This thread is the first I've seen to bring up this issue, and it sure is getting my attention!
|Thanks so much for the responses. I think I'll steer clear of this product. I have too much tile to take that kind of risk! I did look at it again today, and the texture was weird to me...rough at the fill spots but very smooth everywhere else. I think I'll stay with the porcelain I picked out before, for peace of mind, and use natural stone for accent/trim.
- Posted by kittenkat_2002 (My Page) on Wed, Sep 1, 10 at 9:10
|I just installed travertine from Lowes in our laundry room. We purchased all our other tile from a specialty store except for this one.

I am familiar with the work that Mark Sagliocca does with the Make It Count foundation and I am very impressed with the results. In my opinion we do not do nearly enough for our vets and it is fantastic to see an organization like Make It Count helping those that have sacrificed so much.

All quotes tagged Intuition
(205 quotes found)
"Intuition is the supra-logic that cuts out all the routine processes of thought and leaps straight from the problem to the answer."
"Intuition becomes increasingly valuable in the new information society precisely because there is so much data."
"All great men are gifted with intuition. They know without reasoning or analysis, what they need to know."
"It is generally admitted that with woman the powers of intuition, of rapid perception and perhaps of imitation, are more strongly marked than in man: but some, at least, of these faculties are characteristic of the lower races, and therefore of a pas"
"Never hire anyone who is going to report directly to you who you do not intuitively just plain like from first impressions. If your instincts tell you you're going to have a hard time working with someone, pass."
"Play my own game. You can read all the books, but you have to listen to your intuition and not do everything exactly as they say. You have to do what feels right."
"When you are in the zone, your intuition comes to the forefront, ... Your intuition will guide you. It is your best friend. It has information your mind does not have. When you are a zone performer - no matter what it is you do - you are operating on intuition and you have an unfair advantage over the competition."

2011 Stanley Cup final game tonight!!
|Wed, 06-15-2011 - 11:14am
Please cheer on my home team, the Vancouver Canucks! :D Canada hasn't (officially) won the Cup since 1993, when I started watching hockey while cheering on the eventual winners, the Montreal Canadiens. We need this win! (Of course, Boston is putting up such a fight that I will have to admit they deserve it if they win. But I'd rather have Vancouver as the victors.)
(As for the unofficial Canadian wins, I think the stats are close to 2/3 of each NHL team being Canadian players, so even when the name of the team includes a city from the US, we're still winners. LOL)
|Thu, 06-16-2011 - 1:13pm
Sorry your team did not win.
Hate when people riot if they win or lose.

The call to come to Cornwall was made by local church leaders including Bishop Tim and the Rev Steve Wild. A Task Force of people from across the denominations was established to coordinate the mission.
TFM were delighted to receive this call to follow on from WC1 back in 1993 and other smaller missions that have been held over the years in the county.
Our role is always to only go where invited and to work in partnership with local churches in the task of outreach. Following the invitation a programme of visits to churches leaders was put in place so that a personal call to participate could be offered and just under 400 people were contacted and visited.
As a consequence just over 250 separate churches decided to participate and were organised into 47 different centres split over the 3 weeks; 19 in week 1, 16 in week 2 and 12 in week 3. There was also a central TFM staff team facilitating events in all areas. In approximate terms the churches were 50% Anglican, 25% Methodist and the final quarter being made up by the remaining denominations.
The centres were served by volunteers from across the UK (and one from Spain); over 10% came from Northern Ireland. They came at their own expense and agreed to work in whatever capacity and programme the locals wanted. In total there were 337 volunteers but these were significantly and profoundly matched by an unknown number of church members who shared in the outreach. In one area it was estimated that over 90% of the congregation were actively involved in one way or another. At the other extreme one team worked with just one or two people who had a heart to see outreach in their area even if their church didn't and wanted to go the extra miles to enable this to happen.
It is difficult to quantify the 'success' of such a mission. We know from team reports (a snap shot of stories can be viewed on the Walk Cornwall website blog, that some tremendous work was done. Also feedback from churches has been very positive. Even areas which initial proved to be difficult, with tensions between what the churches expected and what the teams had been led to believe they would be doing, feedback has been encouraging.
Almost all teams were involved in street and door to door work and we calculate that;

Operational Recovery is the final phase in business continuity. The primary purpose of this phase is to ensure that critical operations continue after an incident and to quickly resume normal operations. This phase begins after the campus has been secured after an emergency and it is safe to begin recovery operations. The incident has passed, but University operations have not been completely restored.
There are, in general, two types of operational recovery:
- Business Recovery - deals specifically with the recovery of a key function or department in the event of a disaster. Included in this category is Academic Continuity which deals specifically with how to ensure the continuity of teaching, learning, research and scholarship.
- Disaster Recovery - deals with the technical component of recovery, including the resources, actions, tasks and data required to manage the technology recovery effort.
Departmental COOP Template - Use this form to create a departmental continuity of operations plan for your department. The COOP plan identifies critical functions and the resources (people, infrastructure, technology) that support those functions. It also describes what the department will do to continue performing the critical functions if resources are not available.

Inaugural Fred Dunbar Memorial Lecture in Law and Economics
NERA Economic Consulting established the Fred Dunbar Memorial Lecture in Law and Economics at Fordham Law School in memory of Fred Dunbar, Ph.D., a longtime firm member, and leading securities and finance expert. Dr. Dunbar passed away in February 2012.
On April 8, 2013, The Honorable Sheila C. Bair, former Chair of the FDIC (2006-2011) will give the The Inaugural Fred Dunbar Memorial Lecture in Law and Economics: "Ending Too Big to Fail"
Dr. Dunbar joined NERA in 1979 and founded the firm's Securities and Finance and Mass Torts and Product Liability Practices. He was widely regarded as a distinguished economist "who worked at the intersection of law and economics." Throughout his career at NERA he was a sought-after expert witness whose testimony and use of econometrics—a form of mathematical and statistical analysis—significantly influenced claims estimation and litigation in court cases and arbitrations worldwide.

"If you don't have a kid, borrow one."ReplyDelete
LOL - That's the best line in a review I've read in a long time! Those must be some damned good chicken fingers. I was planning to go to Taste for brunch on Friday, maybe I'll try Brugge instead ... and maybe they'll let me pretend I'm a kid.
Great, now I have to go find a kid...ReplyDelete
hehehehe... I would try and get the fish and chips if they are available, although the chicken is pretty damn good too... if you guys go, let me know what you get and what you think!ReplyDelete
Love their duck creppe and frites. Never tried the mussels, but I will now. Maybe tomorrow night even.ReplyDelete
We love Brugge too! We usually split a salad (either one) between the 2 or 4 of us then we get the duck confit as a starter...really good. We seem to get the curried mussels and the beurre blanc every time. I love their mayo on the fries. Don't like that they charge extra if you need more bread (2 pieces) to dunk afterward...but hey, there are bigger battles.ReplyDelete
FYI they do have a good website with lots of info and menu etc. http://www.bruggebrasserie.com/brassin.htmlReplyDelete
@Lisa - I think she was referring to the fish place in California she was comparing the batter to.ReplyDelete
Love the mussels and fries at Brugge and will def need to borrow a kid to order some chicken fingers. Thanks for the tip:)ReplyDelete
I can assure you you needn't hire a kid to enjoy the items on the kids' menu at Brugge! There's a $3 upcharge if ordered by an adult as the stuff on this menu is actually sold below cost to provide value for those dining with kids, but it's as easy as that.ReplyDelete
I love to hear that they are still doing great things in the kitchen. Love me some Millers.ReplyDelete
- MaggiejiggsFebruary 11, 2012 at 7:03 PM
Is it just me? I find their mussels to be overcooked. I much prefer the mussels at Pizzology.ReplyDelete

For all of the good news Apple received this week, whatwith the massive cash reserve they currently have and the smashing success of the new iPad, Apple just can't seem to shake bad news in the courts. On the heels of losing an appeal and having another case suspended in Germany, Apple is now being sued by a group of Chinese authors in Beijing, China.
So why are the authors–known as the Writers Rights Alliance–suing Apple? Well, it appears that Apple may be selling unlicensed copies of the authors books through the App Store. The books allegedly can be purchased through the App Store or the built-in iBooks application that is included on iOS devices including the iPhone, iPad, and iPod Touch.
According to the claim, Apple has been selling pirated versions of roughly 95 books. The claim comes after the Writers Rights Alliance petitioned Apple in 2011 to stop electronically distributing the books through Apple's App Store. It seems that Apple did not obey this claim and now they're paying wifor it with what could be a very costly court suit.
The Writers Rights Alliance wants $50 million yuan (or $8 million in USD) from Apple in compensation.
Apple, for their part, seems to be willing now to work with the Writers Rights Alliance to resolve the manner. Acording to Apple spokeswoman Carolyn Wu, "as an IP holder ourselves, we understand the importance of protecting intellectual property, and when we receive complains we respond promptly and appropriately."
This isn't the first lawsuit for Apple in China (they are still locked in a battle with Chinese firm Proview Technology) and it's not likely to be the last, as Apple is still dealing with allegations of poor working conditions at the Foxconn plant in China, which is responsible for building the iPad, iPhone, and iPod Touch. Given the bad press Apple is getting in China, it wouldn't be surprising to see Apple lose this court case as well.

3rd Party Pick
. Aerospace. Cabin lighting / electronics. 14%rev growth. 16x fye PE. Not cheap but decent
Check out my bullish CAPScall argument for ATRO here: http://www.fool.com/investing/general/2011/12/05/1-stock-the-supercommittee-might-agree-on.aspx?source=itxsitmot0000001&lidx=1
tremendous sector; well managed company
With record net income and sales growth year over year. What is not to love? A clean balance sheet and new key contracts on it's way... It's a buy!
They look like a takeover target for one of the bigger aerospace companies to me.
Going to keep an eye on the election. A big cut in defense spending could hurt this company.
I'm pretty sure Astronics has finally fit bottom and only going up from hear. I don't see this stock returning to the mid teens any time soon. Say hello to investors looking to survive a recession this summer by jumping into the defense sector.
Testing out a portfolio of smallish-cap 5-star stocks found using the CAPS screener. All picks have at least 50 allstars backing them, which should be enough to minimize star rating fluctuations. It's only been about a week, and I expect a LOT of volatility, but I have high hopes for market beating performance. Time will tell...
Experiment time... I will pick whatever stocks that are on the cold 5 star list on the last trading day of each month. There is no research involved other what is on the cold 5 star list at the end of each month. Each pick will be for one year. Lets see where this goes...
Punished too harshly on it's financials. Expecting rebound within a month.
Falling knife aerospace provider ATRO likely offers good long term value at current $19.23 level. Company recently missed, but expects revenues will be up 7% this year and margins to improve. ROE north of 30% with a low forward p/e; execution risk and not debt free, but seems like most of the bad news already discounted at current price level
This was at one time a 200 pointer for me I think I ended up with less than 100, now even more off I gotta say it's not a bad move to get back in.
getting in on a dip. if it gets below 35 I may buy in the real world.

Setting the Stage: Assessment in Early Education and Care (Formerly Maryland Model for School Readiness 2013)
Setting the Stage: Assessment in Early Education and Care (formerly MMSR 2013) is an innovative approach to training child care providers in the readiness criteria for public school. MMSR training became available in 1998 as a pilot program funded by a grant from the Constellation Energy Foundation, included as partners Maryland State Department of Education, Head Start Collaboration Office of OCYF, Stevenson University, and Maryland Family Network. Maryland Family Network was approached by the Maryland State Department of Education (MSDE) to be the lead partner in this effort. Maryland Family Network (MFN) and MSDE have worked together on a number of significant issues over the past few years, including the development of a plan for the improvement of the child care field by addressing issues such as career opportunities, defining basic knowledge and skills necessary to help children make the most of their formative years, and recognizing the need to address articulation of
coursework between two- and four-year institutions of higher education as well as training successfully completed outside of those institutions by non-traditional students. The other partners, Head Start and Stevenson University, were also invited to participate in order to make sure (in the case of Head Start) that the pilot included all types of care for children, and to allow (in the case of Stevenson University) providers of care to take training for college credit if they wished.
The MMSR pilot represented the first time in the United States that a state department of education worked with an early childhood advocacy group in addressing the needs of the community. Participants in the pilot went through an interactive series of training modules that allowed them to identify and understand the needs of young children, created the opportunity for providers of care to analyze their learning environment and reflect on its impact on children, and offered the tools to help child care providers modify their environment and their classroom practice. Our experience with the pilot version of MMSR training confirmed that regardless of the level of education, experience, or background in training, child care providers of all types and abilities benefit from this model.
In 2013 MMSR was revised from nine, six hour modules to five, six hour modules. On July 1, 2014 the Maryland Model for School Readiness, 2013 was renamed Setting the Stage: Assessment in Early Education and Care. The five, six hour modules will remain the same. If providers have taken MMSR 2013 they do not need to take Setting the Stage: Assessment in Early Education and Care it is the same training as MMSR 2013.
Setting the Stage: Assessment in Early Education and Care places a greater focus on working with culturally and ethnically diverse children, families, and staff members as well an extended emphasis on working with children with special needs. School readiness remains the essential focus of Setting the Stage: Assessment in Early Education and Care. This high-quality, highly interactive training modules build upon one another through the use of case studies, curriculum, and instruction in ways that significantly improve school readiness goals for young children. The five module training series continues to use trainer presentation as a guide for each module. However, much of the "instruction" is done by way of small group activities and discussions, encouraging individuals to discuss elements of their programs and appropriateness of practice. Additionally, through use of handouts, journaling of practice and "homework" assignments, each participant has a very individual experience
working through concerns specific to their program.

'Mugnog' production for young audiences opens April 6March 26, 2013
EAU CLAIRE — The University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire music and theatre arts department will present Ranier Hatchfield's "Mugnog," a political play for young audiences, at 1:30 p.m. April 6 and 7 in Studio 190 of the Haas Fine Arts Center.
The production also will tour to elementary schools throughout western Wisconsin April 2-9.
Who says an ordinary box can't be a magical toy? In "Mugnog," two children show how the power of imagination can undermine the authority of adults and empower kids to create their own rules. The production integrates music, singing and dance throughout the story.
Dr. Jennifer Chapman, associate professor of music and theatre arts, is the director of "Mugnog."
"Mugnog is the kind of play that is fun for both kids and adults," Chapman said. "It has humor that reaches both audiences, and its message — that imagination is the key to power and freedom — is meaningful to people of all ages."
UW-Eau Claire student cast members in "Mugnog" are senior Nate Plummer, Chippewa Falls, as the assistant director, stage manager and DJ; junior Leah Beckman, Andover, Minn., as Pam and the music director; senior Cade Sikora, Cornell, as Tom and the technical director; senior Joseph Kastner, Reedsburg, as Uncle; junior Tabitha Tatro, Antigo, as Aunt; senior Sam Sirianni, St. Paul, Minn., as Uniform Man; and senior JT Stocks, McFarland, as Mr. Grouch.
The production is best suited for youth in grades 1-4.
To book a school performance of "Mugnog," contact Dr. Jennifer Chapman at firstname.lastname@example.com or 715-836-5614.
Tickets for the public show, available at the university's Service Center in the Davies Center's east lobby, are $5 for adults and $3 for youths 12 and under. For more ticket information, call the Service Center at 715-836-3727 or 800-949-UWEC, or visit the Service Center website to order tickets online.

St. Cloud State University normally hires employees through a formal search process (click on this link to for complete MnSCU Administrator Hiring Procedures). This promotes an open competitive process and helps to ensure hiring in accordance with equal opportunity principles and merit.
ALWAYS begin with a NEOGOV Requisition for all requests to fill or extend a position on a temporary basis. You must have NEOGOV user access and permissions in order to enter a requisition. Contact Human Resources x83203 or email: firstname.lastname@example.com if you have questions and to request a Requisition User Guide.
Here are some exceptions to a formal search process:
Processing Appointments
Under all circumstances, the appointment to interim, acting, or direct emergency interim appointments must be made formally and approved in advance at all required levels, including Equity & Affirmative Action and Human Resources.
Except for the position of University presidents, an interim employee may apply for the permanent position held on an interim basis. Interim candidates for permanent positions must meet the minimum education and experience requirements in order to be considered for the regular position.
Once a finalist is identified and approved by the Hiring Manager and EAAO, here are the next steps to complete the hire:
1) Once determined who you will offer the position to, please request of them: a resume, references, official transcripts and have them complete the Unclassified Personnel Application form (http://stcloudstate.edu/humanresources/forms/documents/UnclassifiedApplicationForm.pdf) if there was no search/no application in NEOGOV. If an expedited search was conducted in NEOGOV, use the NEOGOV application instead.
2) Once those are gathered, you'll need to have a salary calculation prepared by Holly Schoenherr in HR. She will need the MSUAASF Prior Experience form http://www.stcloudstate.edu/humanresources/forms/documents/AdminstrativePriorExperience.pdf) – have the finalist complete this form and return to Holly asap along with a copy of their resume and the completed application form.
3) Once Holly finishes the salary calculation, she'll notify you of the salary so that you can prepare the Unclassified Employment Request form (with resume, transcripts, references and application form attached to it) which indicates who you are hiring, the dates, salary, duties and into what position (http://www.stcloudstate.edu/humanresources/forms/documents/EmploymentRequestFormADMINISTRATORupdated2012.pdf ) – Sign this form, forward to the Hiring Manager for signature and on to Ellyn Bartges in EAAO to sign; she will forward to the President, Provost or other Vice-President and then it will end up here in HR for contract processing.
4) A signed copy of the Interim person's position description should also be forwarded to HR, listing the duties this person is expected to perform in this emergency hire position.
5) The new hire will then need to meet with Karla Shangrow in HR for I-9 completion and new employee orientation before beginning work.
