are being drawn to nursing, especially as a second career, the profession needs to continue efforts to recruit men; their unique perspectives and skills are important to the profession and will help contribute additional diversity to the workforce.
To better meet the current and future health needs of the public and to provide more culturally relevant care, the current nursing workforce will need to grow more diverse. Previous IOM reports have found that greater racial and ethnic diversity among providers leads to stronger relationships with patients in nonwhite communities. These reports argue that the benefits of such diversity are likely to be felt across health professions and to grow as the U.S. population becomes increasingly diverse (IOM, 2004, 2006). The IOM's report Unequal Treatment: Addressing Racial and Ethnic Disparities in Health Care identifies the diversification of the health care workforce as an important step toward responding to racial and ethnic disparities in the health care system (IOM, 2003). Because nurses make up the largest proportion of the health care workforce and work across virtually every health care and community-based setting, changing the demographic composition of nurses has the potential to effect changes in the face of health care in America.
Although nurses need to develop the ability to communicate and interact with people from differing backgrounds, the demographic characteristics of the nursing workforce should be closer to those of the population at large to foster better interaction and communication (AACN, 2010a). The 2008 National Sample Survey of Registered Nurses (NSSRN) documented the lack of diversity in the nursing workforce, with 5.4 percent of nurses describing themselves as Black/African American, 3.6 percent as Hispanic/Latino, 5.8 percent as Asian or Native Hawaiian/Pacific Islander, 0.3 percent as American Indian/Alaska Native, and 1.7 percent as multiracial (HRSA, 2010). Figure 3-9 compares the racial/ethnic diversity of RNs with that of the U.S. population.
Numerous programs nationwide are aimed at increasing the number of health professionals from underrepresented ethnic and racial groups. One program that seeks to increase diversity while also responding to the health needs of underserved populations is the Harambee Nursing Center (HNC) in Louisville, Kentucky (AAN, 2010c). The name refers to an African tribal word that means "let's pull together." HNC was founded in 2003 by the University of Louisville School of Nursing, in partnership with the University of Louisville hospital and several religious groups, "to improve the health of the approximately 11,000 lowincome, primarily African-American, urban, underserved Smoketown-Shelby Park-Phoenix Hill neighborhood" (Roberts and Hayes, 2005). It is managed by nurses with the help of a volunteer family practice physician. Since its inception, a goal of the program has included attracting greater numbers of minority persons into nursing and other health professions and providing opportunities to enhance

Fee Changes (including Annual and Restoration Fees for 2015)
30 July 2014
The South African Nursing Council has published the latest fee amounts payable to the Council in Board Notice 86 of 2014. For full details, see the board notice in Government Gazette 37880 dated 30 July 2014.
Details of Annual and Restoration Fees for 2015 are given below for your information.
Annual Fees for 2015
The annual fees for the calendar year 2015 can be paid from 1 July 2014. (Please note that Annual Practising Certificates for 2015 will only be issued at the Council offices from 1 August 2014 onwards.)
The South African Nursing Council allows practitioners who will be 60 years of age or older on 1 January 2015 a discount on the Annual Fees (depending on their age on that date). This is intended to permit practitioners who may have retired to keep their name on the register should they wish. Having their name on the register will enable such practitioners to work on a part-time basis or to assist with local or national needs or programmes in a temporary capacity if called upon to do so. Please note that the Nursing Council has decided to grant a discount based on the ages indicated rather than retirement status because there is not a standard retirement age in South Africa.
The 2015 annual fee amounts for the different categories are set out in the table below.
The annual fees for 2015 have been published in Government Gazette 37880 dated 30 July 2014.
Restoration Fees effective from 1 January 2015
The restoration fees will increase on 1 January 2015.
The restoration fee amounts for the different categories are set out in the table below.
The restoration fees for 2015 have been published in Government Gazette 37880 dated 30 July 2014.

The Nursing Council has issued a strong warning that all Nursing Education Programmes and all Nursing Education Institutions in South Africa must be accredited by the South African Nursing Council .
Any education programme or institution which is not accredited is illegal and such training will not be recognised by SANC or any other country.
Any information that you may receive which is contradictory to the above is incorrect and you are warned not to be mislead by such information. More...
Change of the Date for Practitioners to Start Paying for the Annual Practising Certificates for the Year 2015 from 1 July to 1 August 2014
25 June 2014
The date on which practitioners can start paying Annual Fees in respect of the 2015 Annual Fee Year has changed - from 1 July 2014 to 1 August 2014. Annual Practising Certificates for 2015 will therefore be issued at the Council offices starting from 1 August 2014.

Message from the South African Nursing Council
12 May 2014
The 12th of May is a day when nurses globally reflect on and celebrate the meaning and value of their contribution in the health care delivery. This celebration emanates from the birthday of the Nursing Icon, Florence Nightingale, who made great strides in the development of nursing as a profession.
Nurses form the largest health care workforce hence often referred to, in many spheres, as the backbone of the health care system. This is indeed demonstrated by nurses coming to the rescue of the health care system in the form of task shifting to meet the dynamic contextual challenges. For example, when the HIV/AIDS pandemic set in, the nurses began to maintain and later initiate ART under the banner of NIMART. The NHI is currently being implemented and the nurses are playing the greatest role to ensure universal access and affordability of health care to the South African Community. The quadruple disease burden has required reshaping the role of even the lower categories of nursing to the extent that a need has arisen that the scope of all categories and curriculum be changed to meet the current challenges in South Africa. It is therefore not surprising that the theme to celebrate this day for 2014 is:
In 2014, the Nurses' Day coincides with the celebration of the 20 years of democracy which the nurses were part of and aligned themselves with. Soon after democracy, nurses have formed a democratically elected Nursing Council which has aligned the legislative framework to assist nurses to meet the demands of a health system in transformation. The South African nurses have been able to meet in numbers to determine their fate in a summit held in 2011, culminating in a compact that gave birth to The Strategic Plan for Nurse Education, Training and Practice 2012/13 – 2016/17. The Minister of Health, Dr. Motsoaledi has appointed the Chief Nursing Offer to facilitate the implementation of this strategy. All we need as nurses is to hold hands and find our way forward.
The South African Nursing Council supports all the efforts to meet above mentioned challenges. For example, the Council has realigned the Scopes of Practice and is transforming Nursing Education at all levels using a consultative process with relevant structures. This includes formalization of a specialist category to support ever shifting tasks for nurses.
Most importantly, the South African Nursing Council salutes nurses of this country who despite daily pressures and challenges, continue to prioritize the welfare of their patients and continue to keep the lamp of Florence Nightingale burning. However, the Council urges the South African nurses to keep in mind that nursing is a noble profession and professionalism and ethics must take centre stage in all our endeavours.
The South African Nursing Council hopes, with the support of the South African nurses at all levels and structures, to: Think strategically, act ethically and lead professionally.

The Department of Health has published the National Strategic Plan for Nurse Education, Training and Practice 2012/13 - 2016/17 on its website.
The development of the Strategic Plan has its roots firmly in the Nursing Summit which took place in 2011 and the Nursing Compact that was drawn up as a direct consequence of the Summit.
This link is published on the Nursing Council website in an effort to distribute this important information as widely as possible and particularly amongst the nursing profession and others involved in the health care sector.

By the time we arrived at Halo 2, introduced in 2004, the digital code of games exhibited deeper artificial intelligence, spooky ambient soundtracks, and more elaborate stories with characters who enacted a complex "space opera." Massive Multi-Player Online Role-Playing Games (MMORPGs) such as World of Warcraft exploited the power of the internet in the mid-1990s.
Today's gaming landscape is brimming with cinematic complexity and fluid, lifelike motion in games such as Heavy Rain (2010). Minecraft, introduced in 2009, is a build-it-yourself world with no discernible plot or missions. Millions of online players create environments in a free-form "sandbox" of varied eccentric materials. Other recent games, like Myst and Flower, require more decision-making, more strategic or abstract thinking by the player.
What games can you actually play in this exhibit? There's one console each set up for Pac-Man, Super Mario Brothers, the Secret of Monkey Island, Myst, and Flower. The exhibition is rounded out with instruction books, comic books, box art, and pamphlets.

A few large, flat-screen monitors broadcast interviews with game designers who describe the process of creating their work, from brainstorming to storyboarding to coding. Another series of large monitors turns the camera on players, capturing the range of emotional reactions while playing. People of all ages and ethnicities are seen jumping, ducking, grimacing, and sticking out their tongues as they play.
It is this human element that gives meaning to all the bright pixels and blips and beeps. Marisa Pascucci, curator of Twentieth Century and Contemporary Art at the Boca Museum of Art, says, "These games are binary computer code basically, but visitors can see the game designers giving interviews, sharing behind-the-scenes experiences and all the teamwork involved in creating what is a true art form. An all-encompassing art form with music, sometimes entire symphonies commissioned for them. The storytelling has a human point of view, which makes it like other art forms, like literature."

Reynolds's arguments are not new, and they are hardly the last say on any of the questions he raises, but it isn't often that a play can be so openly polemical without being utterly boring. Certainly, some of the credit goes to the intelligent cast. Paul Menzel and Ellen Suits as Oz and Gabriella are thoroughly convincing as the arrogant but spineless artistic directors of the successful East Coast theater. Brooke Baumer as Claire, the visiting Brit theater owner, is perfectly sexy in that English I'm-so-cold-I-could-kill-you-in-bed sort of way. And Cheray Martin, as the young, passionate playwright Tracy, is sometimes thrilling to watch.
Playgoers may not agree with all that Reynolds wants to argue, but they know they've witnessed something powerful when it's over; most couples headed toward their cars in wildly heated debate.

Running Bamboo! How to Get Rid of thisaggressive grower if you don't want it —or plant it safely if you do
Question. You once discussed usingvinegar to kill bamboo. Can you provide this information again? I amdesperately trying to kill the bamboo in my back yard.
---Dianne inBowie, MD
Mike: I have a property that borders an apartment complex and want toblock the view with some tall evergreen plants. I see bamboo used a lotaround here, but I've also heard it called 'Damn-Boo', and am concernedabout it spreading into unwanted areas. What do you think? Andwhat variety of Bamboo would grow tall enough (20+ Ft) here? Thanks,
---Jim inSwarthmore, PA
Dear Mike: Several weeks ago I was talking with my 80 year old aunt inWestchester, New York, and she mentioned that her son had plantedbamboo in his rose garden. I have seen it out of control in nearbyyards, told her what a nightmare the stuff can become, and suggested mycousin read your columns on the subject. Well, instead she tore it allout without telling her son, who was angry to say the least. He said itwas a special variety that does not spread that he had spent $118on! (He did add that he knew of the problems with other types, asa friend had rented a backhoe to clear a bunch that had spread from aneighbors yard.) Are there really non-invasive varieties? And lessexpensive places to get them? (I am thinking of replacing his.) Andwhat do you think about bamboo and roses?
---Sadly SorrySue!
Answer. Poor Sue! That's a tough wayto learn Gardening Lesson #1: You can tell other people what you thinkall you want, but never pull up their plants. Or pants.
Anyway, yes; there are 'nice' ones. As our good friend Ric Venzie,bamboo curator at the famed Japanese House in Philadelphia's FairmountPark has explained many times on the show, the wide, wide world ofbamboo (there are around 2,000 different varieties; here are a few ofRic's favorites: http://www.whyy.org/91FM/ybyg/bamboo.html)can be broken down generally into two groups: Well Behaved andGodzillas of the Garden.
"Clumping bamboos" grow like ornamental grasses—in big clumps thatdon't 'run' like the invasive varieties. But they DON'T just sit thereeither. The clumps expand outward by a few inches to a few feet everyyear, depending on the variety—and the soil and climate they're growingin. So 'yes' to some, but 'no' to others amidst roses. (Actually, 'no'to me, period. I think these plants look best displayed as 'specimens',all on their own.) The best-known clumpers for the Northeast are oftenreferred to simply as the "Fargesias" (often whether they technicallyare or not). And yes, Ric assures me, clumping bamboos can beexpensive. To help you shop around, here's a link to a great list ofsources (including several that seem nicely local to Sadly SorrySuzie): http://www.americanbamboo.org/SpeciesSourceListPages/PlantAndProductSources.html#DomesticSources.The source of this link is also one of the best overall websites aboutgrowing bamboo in the US: www.americanbamboo.org. Lots of great infothere.
The ones that are always threatening to take over the world are knownas 'running bamboos'. They spread by underground rhizomes, and CAN besafely planted inside restraints, but are perhaps the toughest invasiveplants to eradicate when they are not.
Ned Jaquith, proprietor of "Bamboo Garden Nursery" in Portland,Oregon (www.bamboogarden.com)explains that the most accepted method of containment is to excavate atrench 30 inches deep and line it with "rhizome barrier", a heavyplastic sheeting designed to control aggressive plants. Most are 40 milthick, but Ned had a 60-mil product made especially for his nursery (heestimates that 60 mil is about one-twentieth of an inch).
The pieces must be clamped together with special metal straps andbolts, the side facing the bamboo should be angled so that the rootsare always deflected up (if its leaning the wrong way, the roots canget under the barrier, especially in loose fertile soil), there shouldbe a lip above ground, and you should always be pruning back any culmsthat come up right next to the barrier. And that's just the shorttake—here's a link to more detailed containment directions from Ned'sexcellent website: http://www.bamboogarden.com/barrier.htm. (Note: Just about any specialized bamboo nursery will carry rhizomebarrier and fasteners, and—perhaps most important—be able to recommendprofessionals to do the actual work. I get tired just thinking aboutit!)
READ COMPLETE ANSWER You can also contain running bamboo with a steam or other form of waterthat does not include a liner (they'll sneak under it). A wide, deepditch filled with gravel will also stop them, as will a real road—butthey'll sneak under a typical asphalt driveway. You could also pourconcrete. "Bamboo Ric" Venzie and I have often discussed using sheetmetal or corrugated roofing plastic as a kind of Cowboy RhizomeBarrier, but Ned and Ric both warn that the pieces would have to befastened together perfectly to prevent the rhizomes from sneakingthrough.
Properly contained, however, running bamboo makes a perfect privacyscreen. "Arrow bamboo" (Pseudosasa Japonica) is the one most commonlyused in the Northeast; it grows to be around 20 feet tall, is thick anddense, looks great all year long—and believe it or not, is lessaggressive than many other running types. (God help us all.) Varietychoices vary greatly with climate—find a source close to you and asktheir advice.
Eradicating running bamboo is tough. Take a good look at thatadvancing grove—it's actually one big plant, all growing out of onegiant rhizome. The backhoe option is a good one; use it to remove everyblessed piece of rhizome, which of course you won't be able to do. Butany new culms that sprout up from rhizome shreds will be individuals;you should be able to dig these little orphans up and be done. But bewarned; if it's coming over from a neighbor, you'll still need arhizome barrier to stop future incursions.
If you have the patience, Ric and many others report success starvingthe roots. Cut the entire grove to the ground, preferably beginning inthe Spring, when the rhizome has the least inherent energy. Let itre-grow until leaves appear on the culms, then cut it again. Andagain…. Producing culms takes a lot of energy out of that big honkin'rhizome underground, but the culms can't collect solar energy to feedit—only leaves can. Ric says you'll see each successive run gettingweaker, until finally, what he calls 'the last gasp' will appear—afinal desperate spurt of growth that looks more like zoysia grass thanbamboo. That's the time to soak the area with a 20% vinegar or otherintense non-chemical herbicide (see lastweek's Q of the Week for all the details) and finish it off. Ric says he's been able to eradicate groves this way in 3 or 4 years.If that's too long for you, I got two words: "backhoe". OK—its actuallyone word. Stickler.
And finally, a gentleman named George Shor, who was unavailable for anactual interview (but who kindly directed us to Ned instead) createddetailed directions on long-term grove eradication for the AmericanBamboo web site. Here's the link: http://www.americanbamboo.org/GeneralInfoPages/ControllingBamboo.html.)

|Grasshoppers are much more numerous this summer, eating their way thru the flowerbeds. Anyone else seeing an inordinate amount of grasshoppers this year, and if you are, any suggestions for a way to get rid of them, short of turning the chickens loose on 'em?
I'm hearing that a lot of rain followed by warm weather can aid in increasing grasshopper populations, but since lots of rain is not the case this summer, that doesn't fit...
Follow-Up Postings:
|Try nolo bait.
But you need to put it out early in the season, and have all your neighbors put it out early as well.
Here is a link that might be useful: link
|Dang! That's the stuff I used years ago (couldn't remember what it was)--and it worked. Thanks~~
|Turkeys love to eat grasshoppers - one of their favorite foods.
|Turkeys. Prehistoric-looking feet. Probably be hell on the garden, too, but good suggestion (?).
|No grasshoppers, but a lot of slugs. I don't mean to go OT, but... I think that I am growing more slugs than vegies this year. Our warmest day this year has been today... 74 degrees. We have tried beer in cups, Slugo, (doesn't work). This is the second day in a row we haven't had drizzle or rain. I wish we would have a little summer just for our garden. Last year we had about 7 days of temps. over 75 degrees. This year so far, about 6 days of 72-75. If you go east about 15 miles it is about 10-15 degrees warmer.
I didn't mean to change the OP. I don't see grasshoppers here on the coast.
|No grasshopper problem here in Va. In fact, the usually abundant insect pests (squash bugs, cuke beetles, Japanese beetles, corn ear worms) are few, very few thankfully. Just a few stink bugs and 4 legged critters are bothersome now. Was fearing that the mild winter would boost pest numbers but perhaps the pest predators over wintered even better?
|We have a national grasshopper problem, for sure !

|Great bluegill and crappie bait. :-)
|Lynn, try sprinkling sand liberally around the plants you wish to protect. They won't cross the sand, as it rips them up.
|That's for sure, Bill. And it's a great excuse to walk down to the dock and go fishin', except the beans and cukes and Swiss chard and raspberries are coming on strong right now, along with the grasshoppers, and I can't seem to tear myself away. Got to make sure summer doesn't slip away on me again without taking time for fishing instead of talking ;-D

|I've seen a few grasshoppers, but the robins are very adept in getting them. I'd never watched robins stalk and strike - grasshoppers didn't stand a chance!
|I knew I was good at something, but I aint coming all that way to stalk your grasshoppers elvis!
|We've been having really high grass hopper populations for several years around here, with some drier places having real problems, the sort of infestations that eat everything, including the lawn and leaves off the trees - the 10 per sq foot kind when clouds of the things go flying every time you walk around. There was one area where the farmers got together and bought that Nolo bait by the pallet, and were able to get it under control.
At my place, I've a very dry patch west of my property, and that gets absolutely hammered by the grass hoppers. I keep my property so wet with irrigation that it just doesn't seem to be much of an issue. I see a few of them now and again, and the robins do a job on them as well, but its nothing like what my neighbors put up with.
|You're on to something, elvis!

|I'm more of an ant than a grasshopper myself. I think grasshoppers are democrats anyway, give it all away, play play play but when it comes time for winter they haven't saved. Why should I give them some of what I worked all spring and summer and fall to gather and hoard?
Here is a link that might be useful: Aesop
|Why did I know this was going to happen as soon as I read the OP? Starting with Demi's comment which I thought almost got lost in the fun.....but it was inevitable.
|Ducks-Khaki Campbell ducks for choice. They love all bugs plus slugs are their favorite food on earth. They do not pull up garden plants or grass. Low maintenance if you build them a secure pen-with a wire roof and a nice small insulated house for winter nights-the very best egg layers-make sure you dont get any males and you wont have dozens of babies. My advice to anyone with insect problems.
Sand is not a deterent for slugs-nor is copper-I have copper kettle drums that I planted lilies in hoping it would help but no it did not. A slug can crawl over a razorblade with out damage.
For Deer-clear fishing line strung at different levels around your beds-the deer cant see it-I have decorative posts planted where I have no tree or bush to attach to. This works if the deer arent starving. You can take it down once the deer are trained to expect it-it spooks them since they cant see what they are hitting. But as I said if they are starving they will take the chance.
I say these things as a person in the land of slugs and deer.

|We had them bad here a few years ago. Picked everyone's garden clean. They eventually ran out of green food and started eating each other.
|Wow just like the people KT!
|Thats the trick with the Nolo bait. It kills some of them, and then the others eat the dead ones, spreading the toxin.
I may be disremembering, was it here we were discussing the locusts during the Dust Bowl, and how they've all but disappeared because their breeding grounds are in the higher mountain grass valleys, which are all now turned into hay meadows, destroying their preferred breeding habitat?

|I see the large ones once in a wild on the farm but in small numbers...a favorite food of kestrels. I saw m first crickets last week.
OK, elvis?
|I've seen large and small ones here. Many times. Haven't seen large ones in a long long while. And so many the first year we moved here (from California), you couldn't walk through the backyard without a million of them jumping ahead of you. It was very interesting to me, that, at no other time, in the past few decades, to have seen that phenomenon again. We left an incredibly severe drought in California when we came to Tennessee, so maybe it was another of those hot and dry years?
|from wiki:
The Rocky Mountain locust (Melanoplus spretus) was the locust species that ranged through almost the entire western half of the United States (and some western portions of Canada) until the end of the 19th century. Sightings often placed their swarms in numbers far larger than any other species of locust, with one famed sighting having been estimated at 198,000 square miles (513,000 km) in size (greater than the area of California), weighing 27.5 million tons, and consisting of some 12.5 trillion insects - the greatest concentration of animals ever recorded, according to The Guinness Book of Records.
But less than 30 years later, the species was apparently extinct, with the last recorded sighting of a live specimen in 1902 in southern Canada. And because no one expected such a ubiquitous creature to become extinct, very few samples were ever collected (though a few preserved remains have been found in Grasshopper Glacier, Montana). Though grasshoppers still cause significant crop damage today, their populations do not even approach the densities of true locusts. Had the Rocky Mountain locust continued to survive, North American agriculture would likely have had to adapt to its presence (North America is the only continent without a major locust species outside of Antarctica).
The last major swarms of Rocky Mountain locust were between 1873 and 1877, when the locust caused $200 million in crop damage in Colorado, Kansas, Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska, and other states. The cause of their extinction was probably the plowing and irrigation by settlers that disrupted the natural life cycle of the insects in the very small areas where they lived in between swarms.[2] Reports from this era suggest that farmers killed over 100 egg cases per square inch while plowing, harrowing or flooding.[3]
I read elsewhere that these main reservoirs / initial breeding grounds were higher up in the mountains, and the winds would blow them out into the plains. So the flooding from irrigation and the disruption from the California gold rush of all those higher elevation streams/meadows/ecosystems would fit.
In Mali, aside from the civil war, the Islamic wackos taking over the north, the drought, etc, there are warnings out now of a major outbreak of locusts. I drove through a swarm once, on a paved road. You couldn't see out the wind shield because it was covered with the things, and when I hit the brakes, I was sliding on them like it was ice.
At the link, a quick 6 second clip of driving through locusts in Mali

|Nancy, I remember those large ones from Wisconsin (they could really whirr when they buzzed by you). Saw them frequently in dry sandy spots where nothing much other than sand burrs grew. Anyone remember trying to get the sand burrs out of your socks or keds laces?
Had totally forgotten about that.
Took forever, the dried ones hurt.
|Sand burrs. Wow, I remember them from the coast, but have never seen them inland. So they are other places too? Interesting.
|I never thought about grasshoppers as being big or small, as I'm hearing about here. These are around 2" long, and some have butterfly-like wings that look like mourning cloaks. We do have a lot of sandy droughty soils, as described by David & Duluth, and the grasshoppers seems more prevalent where it's dry, sandy, and sunny.
" Anyone remember trying to get the sand burrs out of your socks or keds laces?"
Yes! And it's still an issue, especially with giant Labradoodles. Whatever you do, don't let your rhubarb go to seed--it produces the most awful large round (they look like sea mines) spikey burrs.

An acrostic poem is very easy to write. This kind of poem can be written in different ways, but the simplest form is to put the letters that spell your subject down the side of your page. When you have done this then you go back to each letter and think of a word, phrase or sentence that starts with that letter and describes your subject.
I write acrostic poems quite alot, usually the subject ends up being nothing to do with the word used though. I like to start with a word and just see where the poem takes me. I rarely apply rules to writing as it just created limitations. Here are a few of my acrostics.

SLIDELL, La. (AP) - Slidell police say a second person has died by guns fired into a crowd during a fight at closing time in Slidell's bar district.
Police said eight people were shot. One died and another who was initially listed in critical condition later died Thursday morning. Police say the other six are in stable or guarded condition. The victims were taken to hospitals in Slidell and the New Orleans metro area.
Detective Daniel Seuzeneau (soo-zuh-noh) says police have not released the names of any of the victims.
Seuzeneau says police aren't releasing any further details at this time because the investigation is sensitive. Police have scheduled a 2 p.m. news conference to provide updates on the situation.
Anyone with information about the shooting is asked to call Slidell police at 985-643-3131

Not one byte! German telecom giant plans to rout foreign spooks
"Of course the NSA could still break in if they wanted to, but the mass encryption of emails would make it harder and more expensive for them to do so," Sandro Gaycken, a professor of cyber security at Berlin's Free University, said when the idea was first proposed.

Germany's largest telecom provider, Deutsche Telekom, is looking to introduce a "national routing" service which would keep German internet traffic out of the hands of foreign spies.
The former state-owned communications giant outlined the plans at a secret meeting in the Economy Ministry, business weekly Wirtschaftswoche reported.
Currently, email data is exchanged between users worldwide via international Internet exchange points; physical structures through which Internet service providers (ISPs) exchange Internet traffic between their networks.
The company hopes to hammer out an agreement with other national Internet providers which would guarantee that "while being transported from the sender to the receiver in Germany… no single byte leaves Germany," Thomas Kremer, a board member of Telekom's data privacy, legal affairs and compliance, told the magazine.
** Of course, like NSA's ECHELON, it still doesn't prevent BND, the BundesNachrichtenDienst (German CIA/NSA counterpart) or their other related govt agencies from spying on their own citizens, then passing on the info to InterPol and other foreign intel services.
Also, it's my understanding that both Deutsche Telekom and Vodafone (UK co, but w/large presence in Germany and rest of Europe, along w/rest of the world) are as corporatist as any American telco giants. Seeing as how they're the top 2 majority carriers in Germany, not sure how all this would work out, in reality, vs. what's being advertised.
But, hey: who knows?
The phrase "an Honest TeleCom company" perhaps will cease to become an oxymoron in Germany, at least...some day. Stay tuned...

AN EVENING WITH DOC WATSON & DAVID HOLT spotlights the signature sound and indomitable spirit of five-time Grammy® winner and National Medal of Arts honoree Arthel Lane "Doc" Watson (1923-2012). Blind since childhood, Doc developed an innovative flat-picking style of playing guitar and, with his son Merle, helped lead the folk roots revival of the 1960s. David Holt, a fellow Grammy-winner, folklorist and longtime friend of Doc, hosts this celebration of song and story. In this three-act concert, recorded in 1998 at North Carolina's Appalachian State University, Doc, David and Richard Watson (Doc's grandson) perform a variety of duets and solos. Musical highlights include: "Tom Dula," one of the most famous folk songs ever to top the pop charts; the beautiful mountain ballad "Shady Grove"; Carter Family classic "Dixie Darling"; and "Talk About Sufferin'," a haunting a capella gospel tune. Between virtuoso picking and foot-stomping jams on bluegrass, folk and gospel favorites, Doc recounts entertaining anecdotes from his life as well as enduring Appalachian legends.

Campesterol is a phytosterol whose chemical structure is similar to that of cholesterol.
Many vegetables, fruits, nuts[1] and seeds contain campesterol, but in low concentrations. Banana, pomegranate, pepper, coffee, grapefruit, cucumber, onion, oat, potato, and lemon grass (citronella) are few examples of common sources containing campesterol at ~1–7 mg/100 g of the edible portion. In contrast canola and corn oil contain as much as 16–100 mg/100 g. Levels are variable and are influenced by geography and growing environment. In addition, different strains have different levels of plant sterols. A number of new genetic strains are currently being engineered with the goal of producing varieties high in campesterol and other plant sterols.[2] It is also found in dandelion coffee.
It is so named because it was first isolated from the rapeseed (Brassica campestris).[3] It is thought to have anti-inflammatory effects. It was demonstrated that it inhibits several pro-inflammatory and matrix degradation mediators typically involved in osteoarthritis-induced cartilage degradation.[4]
Being a steroid, campesterol is a precursor of anabolic steroid boldenone. Boldenone undecylenate is commonly used in veterinary medicine to induce growth in cattle but it is also one of the most commonly abused anabolic steroids in sports. This led to suspicion that some athletes testing positive on boldenone undecylenate did not actually abuse the hormone itself but consumed food rich in campesterol or similar phytosteroids.[5][6][7]
It was first shown in the 1950s that plant sterols are beneficial in lowering LDLs and cholesterol.[8] Since then, numerous studies have also reported the beneficial effects of the dietary intake of phytosterols, including campesterol.[9]
It is thought that the campesterol molecules compete with cholesterol and thus reduces the absorption of cholesterol in the human intestine.[10] Plant sterols may also act directly on intestinal cells and affect transporter proteins. In addition, there may be an effect on the synthesis of cholesterol transporting proteins in the liver cells through processes including cholesterol esterification and lipoprotein assembly, cholesterol synthesis, and apolipoprotein (apo) B100-containing lipoprotein removal.[11]
Serum levels of campesterol and the ratio of campesterol to cholesterol have been proposed as measures of cardiac risk. Some studies have suggested that higher levels predict lower cardiac risk. However, extremely high levels are thought to be indicative of higher risk, as indicated by genetic disorders such as sitosterolemia.[12] Study results of serum levels have been conflicting. A recent meta-analysis suggests that there is no clear relationship, and that perhaps previous studies have been confounded by other factors. For example, people who have a higher campesterol level related to a diet high in fruits and nuts may be consuming a healthy Mediterrean-style diet and thus have lower risk because of other lipids or lifestyle factors. Intestinal absorption of cholesterol varies between individuals, and it is possible that a higher absorption of plant sterols is related to a higher absorption of LDL.[13]
Although studies in humans have shown that consumption of phytosterols may reduce LDL levels, there is insufficient evidence to recommend them as a treatment for hypercholesterolemia. Larger trials are needed to provide such evidence, and are underway.[14] Animal studies have shown that campesterol and other phytosterols can reduce the size of atherogenic plaques, but there is no data yet to shown that consumption of phytosterols result in any clinical benefit such as a reduction in atherosclerosis, heart disease, cardiac events, or mortality.[15]
Excessive supplementation with plant sterols may be associated with reductions in beta-carotene levels.[15][16]
Excessive supplementation with plant sterols may be associated with reductions in lycopene levels.[15][16]
One small study showed no significant side effects after 15 weeks other than a slight reduction in vitamin E levels, which was not significant after LDL cholesterol levels were taken into consideration. However, the authors concluded that excessive long term consumption of plant sterols might have a deleterious effect on vitamin E.[17]
Excessive use of plant sterols has been associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular disease,[10] and genetic conditions that cause extremely elevated levels of some phytosterols, such as sitosterol, are associated with higher risks of cardiovascular disease. However, this is an active area of debate, and there is no data to suggest that modestly elevated levels of campestrol have a negative cardiac impact.[18]
Rare cases of hemolytic anemia have been reported.[19]
A recent trial with dalcetrapid, a cholesteryl esterase transport protein (CETP) inhibitor, (a new class of cholesterol lowering medications currently in development) showed that this agent may have the potential to increase levels of campesterol through increasing intestinal absorption.[20]

DALLAS ( TheStreet) -- No matter how the AMR (AAMRQ.PK) bankruptcy turns out, it is nearly certain to diminish the scope of a widely praised effort by the carrier and its workers to keep aircraft maintenance in-house and in the United States.
At one time, the cooperative effort by the airline and the Transport Workers Union to reduce cost by boosting efficiencies was a showpiece and an indication that American, after veering away from bankruptcy in 2003, had staked out a different path than competitors who were becoming more and more likely to reduce costs by outsourcing the maintenance work they had traditionally done themselves.
Now the amount of outsourced maintenance at AMR seems destined to increase no matter whether US Airways (LCC) succeeds in a takeover bid or AMR management retains control.
The relative safety advantages of in-house maintenance over outsourced maintenance, and of domestic work over foreign work, are frequently debated. It is clear, however, that the long-established model of in-house maintenance has been key to ensuring that U.S. commercial airline travel has become probably the safest form of transportation in the history of the world.At American, the effort to keep work in-house largely reflects the influence of former CEO Gerard Arpey, who retired in November as the carrier sought bankruptcy protection. Arpey firmly held convictions that bankruptcy is immoral and that airline employees should maintain airplanes. "Gerard always sounded like he was trying to do the best things for employees," said Gary Peterson, president of Local 565 of the Transport Workers Union. "We agreed to a lot of joint process initiatives. But it sometimes appeared that a lot of senior executives weren't on board with his plan. They talked about the working-together concept, but a year or so down the road, they fell back into the old ways." According to the most recent statistics from the U.S. Bureau of Transportation Statistics, American and partner American Eagle outsource less than any other carriers. In the first nine months of 2011, American outsourced 23% of its $1.8 billion worth of maintenance, while American Eagle outsourced 24% of $235 million in maintenance. Industry average was 45%.

T-wolves end 22-game skid vs Lakers
Nobody in the Minnesota locker room had to say much before the game about the Timberwolves' 22-game losing streak to the Lakers.
The Wolves mostly knew about their dismal history in this matchup, and they came out apparently determined to rewrite it in the first quarter alone.
Kevin Martin scored 27 points, Kevin Love had 18 of his 25 during Minnesota's 47-point opening quarter in a skid-snapping 113-90 victory Sunday night.
Ricky Rubio had 12 points, 14 assists and 10 rebounds for the Timberwolves, who hadn't beaten the Lakers since March 6, 2007. Minnesota took a 28-point lead with a 27-2 run, reducing the Staples Center crowd to scattered boos during the highest-scoring quarter in the Timberwolves' franchise history.
The Wolves maintained a healthy advantage all night in their first win over the Lakers at Staples Center since Dec. 2, 2005, ending the longest active streak between two NBA opponents.
''We had lost so many straight to the Lakers that we thought we were due for one,'' said Love, who also had 13 rebounds while hitting four 3-pointers. ''We knew, the guys that had played here. We had talked about it, that we hadn't had much success, but we weren't thinking about anything numbers-wise. We just wanted to come out and think about this year.''
Minnesota won with ease — something that's almost never happened in this matchup. Corey Brewer scored 17 points and Nikola Pekovic had 14 points and 10 rebounds as the Wolves punctuated their 5-2 start to the season by routing sending the Lakers' crowd home early.
Martin had another monster game in his strong start to the season, improving to 18 for 28 on 3-pointers in the last five games while averaging 27 points. And Rubio supplemented his second career triple-double with five steals, becoming just the second player in franchise history with at least five steals during a triple-double game.
''Everybody was making shots,'' said Rubio, the first opponent to record a triple-double against the Lakers since LeBron James on Christmas 2010. ''We knew we'd lost the last 22 or something like that. It was a good game for us to end it.''
Steve Blake scored 19 points with five 3-pointers, and Jodie Meeks added 16 for the Lakers, who have lost five of seven — and got even more injury concern about one of their stars.
Steve Nash played 13 minutes before sitting out with a back injury for Los Angeles, which never got closer than 14 points down the stretch.
Nash, the NBA's oldest player at 39, will be evaluated on Monday by Dr. Robert Watkins, who performed Dwight Howard's back surgery last year. The Lakers have kept Nash out of the lineup twice already this season to preserve his health, but Nash's back has bothered him for years.
''You could call it back, nerves, pain in the hamstring,'' Nash said. ''It all gets a little convoluted, but it's all basically the same since last year. . . . I'm just trying to figure it out, trying to play through it and at the same time be smart. It's tough. I really want to play. To be so limited is frustrating.''
NBA STANDINGSIs your team at the top? Check out the division standings.
Pau Gasol managed just 11 points and 11 rebounds for the Lakers, who had won 13 straight at home over Minnesota.
Kobe Bryant played in all but one game during the Lakers' winning streak in this matchup, but the fourth-leading scorer in NBA history still isn't close to making his season debut after surgery in April.
The Wolves sizzled from the start, with Martin and Love humiliating the Lakers' defenders with a series of increasingly improbable jumpers and drives. Los Angeles largely failed to defend the perimeter, but Martin and Love also hit shots in tight coverage while making 12 of their 14 first-quarter shots.
''We came out soft,'' Los Angeles coach Mike D'Antoni said. ''They made some tough shots, but they did score 47 points. And I don't care what kind of shots they made. There just wasn't enough intensity into the defense, and we paid for it.''
Minnesota led 17-14 before scoring 27 of the next 29 points in a vicious 4:47 span, starting with three consecutive 3-pointers. JJ Barea's layup put the Wolves up 44-16, and they finished the quarter with a 47-23 lead.
''Forty-seven points in one quarter . . . it's outrageous,'' Gasol said.
The Timberwolves cooled off from there, but were too far ahead to be threatened. The Lakers trimmed the lead to 90-76 heading to the fourth quarter after 11 third-quarter points from Blake and nine more from Meeks, but Rubio and Brewer kept the Wolves ahead down the stretch.
NOTES: Minnesota stays in the building to face the Clippers on Monday night. The Lakers return Tuesday to host New Orleans after last week's loss to the Pelicans. . . . UCLA product Shabazz Muhammad got no discernible reaction when he entered the game for Minnesota in the fourth quarter. . . . Xavier Henry had a career-high eight rebounds for the Lakers, but he struggled again with 1-for-8 shooting.

by accident deleted the cronjob from ispconfig 3
A good morning to all from the netherlands here .....
my issue is as follow ...
by accident i deleted the cronjob from ispconig 3 over ssh
now almost nothing is working please help me how to make a new cronjob so it works again thanks so much ....
maybe not the correct way but it works .....
what i have done was installed the ispconfig3 in a vm
then i did this
root@server:~# getent passwd | cut -d: -f1 | perl -e'while(<>){chomp;$l = `cront
ab -u $_ -l 2>/dev/null`;print "$_\n$l\n" if $l}'
this listed the cronjob i was missing ....
* * * * * /usr/local/ispconfig/server/server.sh > /dev/null 2>> /var/log/ispconf
so i did on the server where i was missing the cronjob like this
did crontab -e enter
then put in that file * * * * * /usr/local/ispconfig/server/server.sh > /dev/null 2>> /var/log/ispconf
ig/cron.log saved it with ctrl+X
and walla it worked :)
Curious as why did you just run the update.php script and let it recreate the cronjob?
