Certification in OHN Online
0Apr 1, '09 by NeatsDoes anyone have any info regarding a college named Canyon College. They offer a Occupational certificate online. They are NOT Regional accrediated but accrediated by AIDE and ANMAB. Sounds strange.
It sounds too funny. Feedback is appreciated. I really want to gain experience in OHN and am a BSN with degrees in Health Care Administration too. It sounds there is no online reputable colleges that offer certification in Occupational Health Nursing except this and in Florida.
I am a new graduate nurse and want to focus on OHN.
Thank you all in advance for your reply. -
0Apr 3, '09 by sjap20HI,
Same here, I am looking for a reputable online Occupational Health Training Certification. I've worked as an Occupational Nurse for the past 2 years but I would like to expand more of my knowledge in this line.
Please if anyone could help us, will be highly appreciated.
Thank you... -
0Apr 3, '09 by NeatsThe only school I have found so far is http://health.usf.edu/nocms/nursing/.../mshealth.html and you end up with a Masters in nursing a dual degree. Actually most of the reputable colleges have something like this but you must expend 2 years of education to get there, ugh. I ahve a Masters already. I'm just looking for a certification course online.
If anyone knows of an reputable online certification course in Occupational Health in Nursing please post. -
0Apr 17, '09 by bfredd71University of north carolina chapel hill offers an excellent 1 yr mostly all online certificate program for ohn. You receive 11-12 credits towards your masters and the only oncampus visit is summer i course which is great, all others are online. I just completed in august 2008. You can finish your masters there if you like or just do the certificate. Look at the web site at unc.edu or ask me for further info.
0Jul 16, '09 by qatratHi all - I looked into their course as an option for my staff and unfortunately they do not have any recognizable accreditation. This does not mean they have a bad course, or that it's a rip off - purely that it may not be value for money nor gain you accreditation you need to progress your career. See this for example: http://www.idahostatesman.com/387/story/465431.html and google it yourself. Caveat Emptor!Last edit by qatrat on Jul 16, '09 : Reason: Spelling....
0Jul 16, '09 by NeatsAccrediation is one of the first item list I look for. When I discovered this college has none I went else where. I think if you are smart enough to go to college you should be smart enough to look for Regional Accrediation status. Regional status is better than National Accrediation. Some colleges will not even accept National Accrediation.
4Jul 26, '09 by JerseyLillyHello!
Is this for certification in OHN or a degree in OHN?
If it is for certification, here is what I did.
1. Work onsite as an OHN. Get all the hands on you can. There is a great learning curve when you actually do it!
2. Get AAOHN's "Core Curriculum for Occupational and Environmental Health Nursing", 3rd ed. and read it through!
3. Enroll in a good review course. I used Annette Haag, the former president of AAOHN. Her course is absolutely tops and her resources are priceless for your practice (CDs, manuals, and articles) www.dvdandhaag.com She has courses from the West Coast to the East.
4. Test your knowledge. Keep answering questions to focus on your strengths and weaknesses. DataChem Certistep offers individual and corporate licenses for certification prep questions. www.certistep.com
5. Find mentoring relationships with other sister/brother OHN's or other Occ Health Professionals. Join AAOHN and your local/district chapters and network, network, network! www.aaohn.org
Occupational Health Nursing is an excellent specialty of nursing. It transcends the conventional hospital setting and takes one right into the Community to be a voice of change and influence! Hope this is helpful.

1Jun 19, '10 by 42pinesYou said it Jersey Lilly. If you are RN then the only cert that I see as desired (if that is desired--many places don't care) is AAOHN's (and ABOH (the related crediting agency)) COHN. As Jersey Lilly states, you don't need any further formal training, you need only 2000 hours over some years OHN nursing experience to take it.katkonk likes this.
1Jun 29, '10 by ConstructionohnHi Neats and all,
I just finished the online UNC Chapel Hill certificate in occupational health nurse course that bfredd 71 talked about. I loved it! All the credits you earn are tranferable to the masters courses if you desire. I have been an OHN since 1989 and still love it.
You will learn from leaders in the industry, namely Dr. Bonnie Rogers. Susan Randolph, Judy Ostendorf, and Kathleen Buckheit are also published leaders that teach in the program. It is an excellent program.
It is expensive, but I am not sure where you can go for any education that is not. It is possible to complete the program in less than a year (I did the program in 6 months). I am told that you must sit for the COHN exam to put those initials by your name though.

0Jun 30, '10 by katkonk, BSNI've been certified since the late '90s and the only certification that counts at all is the COHN (if ADN) or COHN-S (if BSN). All others are hooey. That is the certificate that employers are looking for. A bonus if you can get the COHN-S/CM certificate so that they know you can do Case Management as well (always a part of the job these days). UNC is simply the very best, as far as I am concerned. If you don't know it already, Dr. Bonnie Rodgers literally wrote THE book for Occupational Health Nursing. I attended her review course that she offers either once or twice a year in Florida, and a year before that I had attended another review course at Harvard School of Public Health. (My company paid.) Bonnie's was better BY FAR! If you can do it online, even better. But, to take the test and become certified, you must have at least (3,000?) hours of work as an OHN first. (Down from 4,000 when I took it.) It really helps to have your audiometry certification and spirometry as well. Lots and lots of toxicology and medical surveillance questions when I took it. Good luck! Don't waste money on certificates from bogus places that aren't worth anything.

Google Web Search Features
In addition to providing easy access to more than 8 billion web pages, Google has many special features to help you to find exactly what you're looking for. Click the title of a specific feature to learn more about it.
Google takes a snapshot of each page examined as it crawls the web and caches these as a back-up in case the original page is unavailable. If you click on the "Cached" link, you will see the web page as it looked when we indexed it. The cached content is the content Google uses to judge whether this page is a relevant match for your query. When the cached page is displayed, it will have a header at the top which serves as a reminder that this is not necessarily the most recent version of the page. Terms that match your query are highlighted on the cached version to make it easier for you to see why your page is relevant. The "Cached" link will be missing for sites that have not been indexed, as well as for sites whose owners have requested we not cache their content.
These sample queries demonstrate the utility and power of this new feature:
To use our built-in currency converter, simply enter the conversion you'd like done into the Google search box and hit "Enter" or click the Google Search button Here are some sample queries:
To see a definition for a word or phrase, simply type the word "define," then a space, and then the word(s) you want defined. If Google has seen a definition for the word or phrase on the Web, it will retrieve that information and display it at the top of your search results.
Google has expanded the number of non-HTML file types searched to 12 file formats. In addition to PDF documents, Google now searches Microsoft Office, PostScript, Corel WordPerfect, Lotus 1-2-3, and others. The new file types will simply appear in Google search results whenever they are relevant to the user query. Google also offers the user the ability to "View as HTML", allowing users to examine the contents of these file formats even if the corresponding application is not installed. The "View as HTML" option also allows users to avoid viruses which are sometimes carried in certain file formats. Overall, the additional file types provide Google users a wider view of the content available on the World Wide Web. And Google has plans to keep expanding the range of file types available over time. For more information about this feature, please read the file type FAQ.
If you prefer to see a particular set of results with a specific file type (for example, PDF links), simply type filetype:[extension] (for example, filetype:pdf) within the search box along with your search term(s).
The "I'm Feeling Lucky" button takes you directly to the first web page Google returned for your query. You will not see the other search results at all. An "I'm Feeling Lucky" search means you spend less time searching for web pages and more time looking at them. For example, to find the homepage for Stanford University, simply enter Stanford into the search field and click on the "I'm Feeling Lucky" button. Google takes you directly to "www.stanford.edu", the official homepage of Stanford University.

If you like a particular site's content, but wish it had more to say, Similar Pages can find sites with similar content with which you may be unfamiliar. If you are looking for product information, Similar Pages can find competitive information so you can make direct comparisons. If you are interested in researching a particular field, Similar Pages can help you find a large number of resources very quickly, without having to worry about selecting the right keywords. The more specialized a page is, the fewer results Google will be able to find for you. For example, Similar Pages may not be able to find related pages for your personal home page if it does not have enough information to authoritatively associate other pages with yours. Also, if companies use multiple URLs for their pages (such as company.com and www.company.com), Similar Pages may have little information on one URL, but lots on the other. In general, however, Similar Pages works well for the majority of web pages.

If it calculates that you're likely to generate more relevant search results with an alternative spelling, it will ask "Did you mean: (more common spelling)?". Clicking on the suggested spelling will launch a Google search for that term. Because Google's spell check is based on occurrences of all words on the Internet, it is able to suggest common spellings for proper nouns (names and places) that might not appear in a standard spell check program or dictionary.

Daval International announces positive Phase II results for AIMSPRO® as a monotherapy in Established Diffuse Cutaneous Systemic Sclerosis (Scleroderma)
Eastbourne, UK – Daval International today announced positive results from its Double-Blind Placebo-Controlled Phase II Clinical Study evaluating the safety and tolerability of AIMSPRO given as a monotherapy to patients with Late Stage Established Diffuse Cutaneous Systemic Sclerosis (dSSc). The study evaluated the effects of 4.5mg/ml doses of AIMSPRO, administered subcutaneously, twice weekly for 26 weeks compared with placebo and has been recently published in Annals of Rheumatic Diseases (http://ard.bmj.com/search?fulltext=hyperimmune&submit=yes&x=0&y=0).
The primary endpoint of the study was to evaluate the safety and tolerability of AIMSPRO in the treatment of twenty patients with dSSc through a period of 26 weeks of study participation. The secondary outcome measures of the study were to assess the efficacy of AIMSPRO as a therapeutic agent for scleroderma using inter alia the Scleroderma Health Assessment Questionnaire, the modified Rodnan Skin Score (mRSS), the Scleroderma UK Functional Score, the Patient and Physician Global Assessment (VAS), the SF-36 (Short form 36) and the MRC Sum Score.
A successful double-blind placebo-controlled phase II clinical trial in dSSc involving 20 patients was completed in the UK. Analysis of results from the double-blind phase (DBPC) arm and subsequently of the open label (extension-arm) phase of the trial showed statistical and near statistical significant changes in key clinical outcomes with active treatment, such as a reduction in the mRSS (p=0.041, on post-hoc analysis, paired t-test) with 26 weeks of treatment, and in the DBPC phase; a responder rate of 50% (AIMSPRO) vs. 10% (placebo) [p<0.061] was noted; improved Forced Vital Capacity [FVC] (p=0.029, one tailed paired t-test); Forced Expiratory Volume in 1 second [FEV1] (p=0.079) and in the Neuropathic Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) (p=0.046) were additional efficacy outcomes.
Importantly, in this fragile patient population no treatment-related serious adverse or adverse events were recorded during the entire duration of the trial. There was no deterioration in haematological, biochemical, immunologic, cardiologic or in pulmonary parameters that were measured. To the positive safety results, there was a distinct improvement in the overall SF-36 scores (changes: +41.6%, p=0.184) for the patients receiving AIMSPRO.
"Although requiring further confirmatory studies, these results are quite exciting, especially when compared to what has been seen in other pilot trials in scleroderma as there is a clear unmet medical need for patients suffering with this life-threatening disease" said Professor Christopher Denton, Professor of Experimental Rheumatology at the Royal Free Hospital in London, United Kingdom, the principal investigator for the trial. "The important value of the safety data from such a well-conducted trial in such a serious disease is clear, apart from the signals of therapeutic benefit."
Daval's Clinical and Scientific Director, Professor Syed Haq commented, "This study, conducted at one of the world's leading scleroderma centers, was an important first step towards understanding whether AIMSPRO could significantly help patients with diffuse scleroderma and potential overlapping connective tissue disorders, for which there is no cure, by arresting the disease even in its latter stages. AIMSPRO has been shown to be well-tolerated and safe and with the several positive efficacy signals demonstrated. Further investigation is warranted now on a larger scale to determine the full efficacy of AIMSPRO in Late Stage Established Diffuse Cutaneous Systemic Sclerosis."
At the completion of the 26-week period of the study, AIMSPRO was offered to the patients on a compassionate use basis and the results from the 52-week visit thereafter collated. Daval is now preparing to publish several follow-up publications on the biomarker findings from the clinical trial and correlating this with the changes observed, so as to shed more light into the mechanism of action of AIMSPRO in the context of Late Stage Established Diffuse Cutaneous Systemic Sclerosis. This will be further supported by results from multiple in vivo bleomycin murine models of fibrosis.
About the Study
This double-blind, randomised, placebo-controlled Phase IIa study of AIMSPRO enrolled twenty patients who received either AIMSPRO or placebo, 4.5mg/ml subcutaneously, twice weekly for 26 weeks. Standard outcome measures and novel biomarkers were used to investigate safety, efficacy and response to treatment.
About AIMSPRO®
AIMSPRO is a new generation treatment that combines the benefits of polypeptide technology. It is a pharmaceutically derived biological product that is manufactured and processed using a unique specification that is patent protected and which is derived from a caprine hyperimmune serum source that has been immunized with an inactivated HIV IIIB viral lysate.
About Scleroderma
Scleroderma is an autoimmune connective tissue disease affecting blood vessels and collagen production. It is more common in women than men. The cause is still largely unknown and although there is no cure, there are some treatments available that slow down or halt disease progression. There are two kinds of scleroderma: systemic sclerosis which affects the internal organs as well as the skin, and localised scleroderma which affects a specific area of skin but not the organs.

Possible strike looms over EP schools
By Steve Metsch firstname.lastname@example.com September 21, 2012 8:46PM
Maggie Babic, a student at Southwest Elementary School, waves goodbye to schoolmates while standing with her dad, Pete Babic, at the school in Evergreen Park, IL on Thursday, September 20, 2012. | Matt Marton~Sun-Times Media
Updated: October 24, 2012 6:29AM
On the heels of a bitter teachers strike in Chicago, teachers in Evergreen Park School District 124 are not averse to hitting the bricks.
They may strike as early as Friday if contract negotiations under way since April fail to reach an agreement. The last bargaining session was Sept. 10. The next sessions are at 5 p.m. Monday and Wednesday, District 124 Supt. Robert Machak said.
In an open letter to parents, Machak says "plans are being made to keep our students safe and accounted for during (a strike's) duration." He declined to be more specific, saying, "I hope we never need these plans."
He also wrote that parents could use "grade-level websites" to home school their children if there's a strike.
According to the district's website, the school board has offered a four-year contract while the Evergreen Park Federation of Teachers seeks a three-year deal. The board is offering pay raises, based on the Consumer Price Index, with bonuses based on student test scores.
The teachers want increases of at least 3 percent each year and are against bonuses based on scores.
The board proposes using the CPI to determine annual raises for teacher aides and other support staff, while the union wants raises of 30.7 percent and 24.6 percent, respectively, for those employees over three years.
District 124 aides and secretaries are "significantly underpaid for the area," said Deneen Pajeau, field services director for the Illinois Federation of Teachers.
As for insurance benefits,
the board would eliminate contributions to health reimbursement accounts while the teachers want a slight increase in the contributions.
The union has made some concessions regarding retirement, agreeing that 20 years rather than the current 15 should be the minimum for an employee to be eligible for benefits. Other details on each side's position can be found at www.d124.org, the district's website.
Pajeau said the district makes enough in interest ($384,000 last year) off its $16.1 million in reserves to cover the costs of the teachers' proposals, but Machak said the reserves are intended to pay for improvements to schools.
"The union maintains we have all these reserves we don't want to use, but each year for the last four or five the district has anticipated operating at a deficit. We manage to revise plans, make changes and not be in a deficit by the end of each school year," Machak, who joined the district July 1, said.
Dave Comerford, a spokesman for the Illinois Federation of Teachers, said the negotiations are about District 124 "staying competitive in the area" regarding compensation.
Pajeau said the sides are "not too far off" on salary, but teachers are frustrated with having started a school year without a contract for the sixth time in 15 years.
A flier being circulated in the school district — urging people to sign a petition for the union at www.facebook.com/EPFT124 — says District 124's average teacher salary of $62,875 is less than that in districts in Orland Park, Chicago, Oak Lawn, Hometown and Palos Park.
The starting salary for a teacher in District 124 is approximately $37,000, the flier says.
Hearing the sides argue over pay is hard to stomach for Pete Babic, the parent of 6-year-old Maggie, a first-grader at Southwest Elementary School.
"Look at the economy. There's people out of work who don't make anywhere near what teachers make. I was a real estate appraiser. The economy tanked, and now I'm driving a bus for half of what I used to make," said Babic, who drives for Pace suburban bus system out of its Alsip garage.
"It's a good job, a fun job. I'm grateful for it," he said. "I can sympathize with the teachers, most definitely, but where's all the money going? Our taxes keep going up. Supposedly there's money in the school budget (for raises)."
He said Maggie will stay with her grandparents in Elgin for the strike's duration.
"I can't stay home. I'd lose my job," Babic said. "What are we supposed to do? My wife works. I cannot take time off. I'm the new guy, and I have to work every hour I can get."
All smiles while leaving school Thursday, Maggie said she would miss her teacher and classmates in the first grade.
"I like learning," she said.
The father of two children at Southwest School, Bradley Rahm, 43, said he would have to take time off if there's a strike. Hannah, 12, and Nolan, 9, are too young to leave alone, he said.
"My wife is working. She makes more than I do, so I'll take off. My boss is relatively flexible, but how flexible can you be?" said Rahm, a photographer for a company that specializes in school class photos. "It will definitely affect our household. The income is going to take a hit. I hope they can settle."
A strike won't be a hardship for stay-at-home mom Karen Goodwill, who has a third-grade daughter at the school. But she worries that the school year will stretch well into summer with a long walkout.
"I just wish it would go away," she said.
A substitute teacher, Irene Summers picks up grandchildren Suzy, 5, and Matthew, 9, from school several times a week for her son and daughter-in-law. She said she may find herself teaching them at home if there's a strike.
Southwest fifth-grader Cara Flaherty, 10, said she doesn't want teachers to strike "because we'll have less time for summer vacation, and I want to be with my family. I'd miss my friends. I like Southwest because school is important to me and I have lots of close friends there."
Her mother, Alice Flaherty, also opposes the strike.
"I love our teachers. They're a wonderful group of people," she said. "I hope everybody makes a compromise because the kids are going to suffer if they go on strike. ... There needs to be honest dialogue where the teachers feel they're ... being respected. But the board has to look out for the property owners, too."
Machak said "both sides have an obligation to these children. The only way to meet that obligation, whatever differences the adults have, is to sit down and work through them."

Touch: Flower Class
Tuesday, November 15th, 2011This past Saturday I drove to the North Willamette Valley with my Mom, sister and niece for an afternoon of arranging flowers. Our friends own Red Ridge Farms, a beautiful vineyard and olive oil farm that has been lovingly cared for over the last 4o years – they've added olive trees, lavender fields, a nursery and even an overnight cottage. The class took place in their newly added event space and was filled with plants collected from the property: gourds, curly willow, echinacea, sedum, eucalyptus and rosemary that we made centerpieces out of. It was a beautiful way to spend the afternoon surrounded by family, flowers and a fireplace.
Next weekend they are having the third annual Olio Nuova Festa to celebrate this year's harvest. Spend the afternoon tasting fresh pressed olive oil, sampling wines and sharing bruschetta with other wine and olive lovers. If you are in the Portland area, I highly recommend it. It's a really special place.

Family details of woman, 2 children found dead in park revealed
Pastor: Couple docile, kind
NEW ALBANY, Ind. - A woman and two children who were found dead in a southern Indiana creek were all naked, the Floyd County prosecutor said in a news conference Friday.
The prosecutor said a child's car seat was in a nearby tree and there was a Bible in the car seat, WHAS-TV reported.
Floyd County Coroner Leslie Knable told The Courier-Journal of Louisville, Ky that autopsy results showed the victims suffered injuries consistent with having been in water, and that they likely drowned.
Official causes of death won't be determined until toxicology results are in, which could take up to four weeks.
Knable didn't say how long the bodies were in the water but said it was likely a matter of hours, not days.
The family pastor for a woman found dead alongside her two children in a southern Indiana creek said Thursday that the woman's husband is "devastated" by their deaths.
Greater Faith Church pastor J. Todd Nichols said Michael Clutter, 47, told him he went to police after getting home from work about 5 p.m. Wednesday and found his wife and kids missing but their car and apartment keys inside the unit.
The bodies of Jamie Clutter, 35, Brandon Clutter, 10, and 6-month-old Katelyn Clutter were found in a New Albany creek about 15 minutes later.
Nichols told The Courier-Journal of Louisville, Ky ., that Clutter and his family moved to New Albany from the Seattle area a few months ago.
The Clutters had recently moved to New Albany from the Seattle area. Nichols told WHAS-TV that Michael's family lives in Portland, Ind.
"He had been out of work for a couple years and got a job here, a very good job, and they were kind of getting back on their feet," Nichols said. "Things were going great for them."
Nichols described the couple as very docile and kind and their son wise beyond his years.
"Precious little boy, very smart, very intelligent. He was very captivating. Everybody loved Brandon. He was kind of the 10-year-old going on 25," Nichols said.
The church community is shocked by the deaths.
"We are devastated, really," Nichols said. "It's probably, without question, the most traumatic event that's happened at this church for sure and probably in my lifetime."
Police closed off the park, combed for clues and towed a maroon car away from the scene, but it wasn't clear if they were any closer to determining what led to the deaths.
The Clutters had been married for more than 12 years.

About Ores
An ore is a type of block naturally found in Minecraft. Ores are primarily collected for crafting purposes, such as tools, armor, and more. Redstone Ore is used as a type of "wiring", which can be used to create redstone circuits, compasses, clocks and more. Coal Ore can be used for smelting metal ores out of their stone bodies. Ore can also be combined to create a block of the material's type. Blocks are hard to make, requiring nine pieces of each material to create, and are mainly recommended for storage purposes or building. More about ores...
There are also many ores that come in mods, one of the most notable mods known as More Ores. These ores, along with the ores from other mods, are explained on this wiki.

The answer could be on your iPad thanks to Epicenter from Apperian, touted as the first social corporate directory app.
"As businesses embrace mobility, it becomes more and more challenging to locate and coordinate the key people within a company. Epicenter solves this problem," said Reinhard Schumak, Apperian's director of product management.
Schumak said the idea for Epicenter grew from the work Apperian did building custom apps for companies (now its main product is a mobile app management platform called EASE that's designed to help businesses easly deploy and manage apps as well as private label app stores).
"We were hearing and seeing that tablets and mobile devices were becoming important and transformative and we started to think: 'What can we do to create a Super Mario for the enterprise?' Something that would be very popular and useful? The corporate directory idea came up quite often from a variety of sources. And it's a pretty horizontal app because people across any company want better access to resources."
More than just a directory listing, Epicenter has a number of features Apperian says make it easy for workers to "find, connect and do." Examples of these three core features include:
● Navigate the organization through formal connections such as report-to and teams, as well as informal connections such as "find similar"
● Find anyone with a particular skill, experience or location with an easy-to-use, faceted search
● Identify colleagues who are online and near you, even if they are just down the hall
● Learn about co-workers through rich, personalized user profiles that include photos, professional expertise, and educational background
● Share and view real-time status updates across the organization
● Use built-in tools for the iPad, such as email, iMessage and FaceTime, to coordinate, find and communicate with coworkers
● Create and disband cross-functional teams and groups on the fly. Keep them only as long as you need them
Epicenter's price starts at $5 per user per month, but volume discounts can bring the price down quite a bit, said Schumak.
"We already have pilots at companies with 50 to 100 and 500 users, " he said. "And some of our customers have tens of thousands of employees. That's a key advantage to what we do, scale and ease of use."

Despite their creations remaining celebrated to this day, some people live out the rest of their days hating the things they made, sort of like George Lucas and the Star Wars Christmas Special, or Leonard Nimoy and that hobbit song.
But it's not just embarrassing YouTube-fodder that makes creators wish they'd never set pen to paper. It even happens with works that are considered classics, like...
Ang Lee's 2005 film was both a commercial and critical success, going on to win three Academy Awards and its rightful place in history as the definitive movie about gay cowboys in Wyoming. Meanwhile, the collection of stories it was based on by author Annie Proulx was nominated for a Pulitzer.
We found these when we were cleaning up the office.
So it's surprising that Ms. Proulx has repeatedly told interviewers that she wishes she'd never written it.
Why She Regrets It:
The reason for her bitterness is Brokeback Mountain fanfiction.
And this. Mostly this.
According to Proulx, since the release of the movie she has been inundated with alternative scripts, sequels, sexually explicit retellings and "fixes" that change the ending of the story so that the two star-crossed cowboys end up together. And unlike most fanfiction writers, who tend to keep their habits confined to niche message boards, Star Trek web rings and other shame ridden corners of the Internet, Brokeback Mountain fans apparently like sending their work directly to the author's address.
"After the lightsaber fight, Jack and Ennis have sex on top of a Diplodocus."
Surprisingly, Proulx says most of the fanfiction is written by people claiming to be straight males. So ladies, now you know what your boyfriend is doing on the laptop late at night when he claims to not be looking at porn.
What a relief.
The violent dystopian film A Clockwork Orange remains one of Stanley Kubrick's best-known works. In the U.S. it was nominated for several Oscars, but in the UK A Clockwork Orange was withdrawn barely a year after its general release. It never came out on video there or aired on television, and 20 years later the ban was still strictly enforced to the point that a London cinema was sued by Warner Bros. for screening the movie.
The theater owners were then savagely beaten by Malcolm McDowell and tossed into a river. But that probably would have happened anyway.
A Clockwork Orange only became widely available in the UK after Kubrick's death in 1999, ending a stream of furtive trips to France for young British hipsters. In a bizarre twist, the man behind the ban was Kubrick himself, who used his high standing with Warner Bros. to get them to voluntarily withdraw the film.
However, Eyes Wide Shut is still readily available.
Why He Regretted It:
The film appeared at an unfortunate time in British history. Crime rates were on the rise, and several lawyers defended their clients by saying they'd been driven to rape and violence by emulating the hero of Kubrick's film.
Hundreds were killed while riding bombs under similar circumstances.
According to Kubrick's wife in an interview after his death, his family also began receiving numerous death threats. Hurt and appalled by the public reaction and concerned for his family's safety, Kubrick made a personal request to Warner Bros. that they withdraw the film and they obliged.
Now that we mention it, Anthony Burgess, the author of the book the movie was based on, didn't think much of the movie either (Kubrick chopped off the book's happy ending where the protagonist straightens up and realizes the error of his ways), and hated the additional attention that it brought to a book he wasn't crazy about himself.
"Seriously, you people are basically paying for my farts."
In most people's minds Alec Guinness is Obi-Wan Kenobi. But despite gaining eternal nerd worship and a percentage of future Star Wars earnings for his role (thus making him rich for life), Guinness wasn't a fan of the character.
In his autobiography, he mentions a small child coming up to him and saying that he'd seen Star Wars 100 times.
And that little boy became Harry Knowles! Probably.
Guinness replied that he'd give the kid an autograph if he promised to never watch the movie again and the boy burst into tears.
The only thing he hated more than Obi-Wan was children.
Why He Regretted It:
When it came to Star Wars, Alec Guinness pretty much filled the role of a snooty British person. He called the movies "banal" and "mumbo-jumbo," and would throw out Star Wars-related fan mail unopened. Guinness also claimed that it was his idea to get Obi-Wan killed off because he wanted a smaller part.
"F#@king swing the lightsaber, Alec! Fight back! Do something! Ah, f#@k it!" - George Lucas
That's right, one of the most tragic and mentally scarring scenes from your childhood came about because Alec Guinness thought George Lucas was a talentless hack.

jacket: Nordstrom on sale now
jeans: 7 for all mankind
shoes: DSW
This jacket is the epitome of all the spring colors that are all over the magazines. I love how it can add such a spark to a simple tank and jeans, but also dress up an all black outfit with a pop of color. Over the weekend Spencer and I decided to be spontaneous on our day off and ventured to Ventura. Taking spontaneous day trips is one of my favorite things to do. It's a great way to escape from the reality of life and pretend you are a tourist. We went to Brophy Brothers for beer and clams....so yummy! He bought a new hat, which became the joke of the day, since it had a lion on and it and said "king". I know we are weird, but that's why we work so well together!! On to shopping news, I have been shopping online lately and have found some amazing deals. Don't worry a post will come soon about my shopping spree. Happy Wednesday!!

Passionate Politics: How the Modern Women's Movement Changed America
I am woman, hear me roar
In numbers too big to ignore
And I know too much to go back an' pretend
'cause I've heard it all before
And I've been down there on the floor
No one's ever gonna keep me down again
Song lyrics: "I am Woman" by Helen Reddy
The Women's Rights Movement of the 1970s
catapulted out of the rebellious sixties counterculture with ardent
momentum. By the early seventies,
American women were making great strides towards political, economic, social
and personal equity. Politically, much
legislation was passed in the seventies, such as Title IX, the Equal Pay Act
and Educational Equity Act, which continue to guarantee freedom for American
women today. However, the mass media's
portrayal of the movement and its leadership was usually tinged with negative,
demeaning commentaries and sexist stereotypes about feminism. By the end of the 1970s, feminist leadership
had fragmented and many Americans wanted to distance themselves from the
Women's Rights Movement.
What are the major political achievements of
the Women's Movement? What role did the
mass media play in constructing negative images about the movement and the word
"feminism?" What equal rights are women
still trying to achieve or protect in modern America? What are local connections to the larger
movement and media coverage of national events?
Why did the Women's Movement internally split and collapse at the end of
the 1970s?
After completing the lessons in this unit,
students will be able to
1. Identify the political goals of the modern
Women's Movement.
Explore the considerable progress shaped by
the Women's Movement in the political, economic, educational, and personal
realm between 1970-1979.
List some of the attitudes and beliefs
obstructing the progress of the Women's Rights Movement, paying special
attention to the mass media's role in constructing these images.
Learn about the many leaders who
inspired this movement, including Gloria Steinem, Betty Friedan, Flo Kennedy
and Kate Millet.
Identify opposition to the Women's
Create awareness about the many personal
freedoms which contemporary women enjoy thanks to the efforts of women in the
Identify the major achievements of the
1970s Women's Movement such as Title IX, Roe v. Wade, Ms. Magazine and the Women's Strike for Equality.
Analyze the political, personal and
social reasons why the Women's Movement fragmented at the end of the 1970s.

1. Political Achievements and Failures
The political
achievements and legislation inspired and created by the Women's Rights
Movement of the 1970s is outstanding.
Feminists focused on creating laws to banish economic inequality in
marriage, business, banking and credit.
The movement prompted the passing of the Equal Employment Opportunity
Act and Educational Equity Act, not to mention the groundbreaking Title IX
ruling in 1972. Women also became
politically active for the first time in decades creating the National Women's
Political Caucus. Furthermore,
reproductive rights, personal rights, battered women's shelters all were also
issues in which feminists passionately rallied.
To have students
understand the history of the Women's Rights Movement, go to www.legacy98.org/move-hist.html. Click on the appropriate subtopics and answer
the corresponding questions.
New Issues: Name
five issues which the Women's Movement promoted during the 1970s.
What did the Equal Rights Amendment
propose? Who was Phyllis Schlafly? What happened to the ERA?
More Complex Issues Surface: Analyze
the modern feminist issues and compare and contrast them to issues promoted
during the 1970s.
Women's enrollment in military academies and service in active
combat. Are these desirable?
Women in leadership roles in religious worship. Controversial for
some, natural for others.
Affirmative action. Is help in making up for past discrimination
appropriate? Do qualified women now face a level playing field?
The mommy track. Should businesses accommodate women's family
responsibilities, or should women compete evenly for advancement with men, most
of who still assume fewer family obligations?
Pornography. Is it degrading, even dangerous, to women, or is it
simply a free speech issue?
Sexual harassment. Just where does flirting leave off and
harassment begin?
Surrogate motherhood. Is it simply the free right of a woman to
hire out her womb for this service?
Social Security benefits allocated equally for homemakers and
their working spouses, to keep surviving wives from poverty as widows.
Feminist Leadership
Feminist leaders in
the 1970s Women's Rights Movement were an intriguing array of
personalities. Their activism took
various roles from organizing strikes and marches, writing books and articles
to creating awareness about women's issues.
These women ardently struggled for equal rights and forever impacted
future generations with their passion and activism.
Divide the class into
small research teams of 3-4 students and assign each team one of the following
feminist leaders. Have each group focus
on investigating their leader's role in the Women's Rights Movement of the
1970s, including activism, personal writings, public persona and legacy. Analyze their successes in regards to Cynthia

3. Women's Strike for Equality
To honor the 50th
anniversary of the 1920 suffrage vote, Betty Friedan organized a national
"Strike for Equality." Feminists rallied
under three central demands including the right to abortion, the right to
childcare, and equal opportunity in employment and education. Around the country, women marched, picketed,
protested, held teach-ins, and rallies and produced plays and skits. Indeed, the 1970 Women's Strike was an
outstanding success and the catalyst of the Women's Rights Movement.
For historical
background regarding this momentous event go to the following links.
To celebrate Equality Day (August 26th)
with your students consider the following suggestions for integrating lessons
into your curriculum.
Celebrate at your workplace by honoring women who have made
contributions to your company or to your field
Celebrate at your women's club or civic organization with a
luncheon, a speaker or a video
Decorate with timelines or posters celebrating the contributions
of women to American life
Honor outstanding women in your community at an inspiring evening
Put together a display at your local library, bookstore or
community center
Put together a scrapbook or memory book
about significant women or events for women in your community or workplace
4. Reproductive Rights
No other element of
the Women's Rights Movement generated as much controversy as the debate over
reproductive rights. As the movement
gained momentum so did the demand for birth control, sex education, family planning
and the repeal of all abortion laws. On
January 22, 1973 the Supreme Court handed down the Roe v. Wade decision
recognize the right of the individual, married or single, to be free from
governmental intrusion into matters so fundamentally affecting
a person as the
right of a woman to decide whether or not to terminate her
To help students
explore the many events and legislation surrounding reproductive rights in the
1970s go to: http://member.plannedparenthood.org/site/PageServer?pagename=timeline
From there, students
can click on the 1970s timeline and research national trends, Supreme Court
cases and laws that impacted the Women's Rights Movement.
Have students read
excerpts from the actual 1973 Supreme Court decision in
Roe v. Wade: http://womensenews.org/article.cfm/dyn/aid/1187/context/ourdailylives
For additional
historical background of the Roe v. Wade decision go to:
To examine articles
focusing on the 30th anniversary of the Roe v. Wade decision go to
the following links:
For a local
connection go to the New Hampshire public radio link and access a program
titled: Roe versus Wade in New Hampshire
- 30 years later
Furthermore, to give
students an understanding of current abortion laws in their state go to http://members.aol.com/abtrbng/stablw.htm and examine
individual state legislation and abortion rulings.
5. Title IX Education Amendments
The Title IX
Education Amendments passed by Congress in 1972 banned sexual discrimination in
any educational institution, legally guaranteeing equality in sports,
scholarship money, sports facilities and support services.
To gain an
understanding of the importance and history of Title IX, students should visit www.now.org
click on Issues and proceed to the Title IX link. From there students should connect to current
Title IX articles. Have students choose
one article that interests them, print and share with the class.
To help students
explore the significance of Title IX in their own communities research the
local newspaper coverage of the 1972 event.
Students might also examine old yearbooks to see when female sports
became mainstreamed into their high school.
Promote a discussion with your students about sports equity in their
school, including uniforms, sports equipment, practice fields and courts. Examine the legality vs. reality and practice
of Title IX in American high schools.
Students can look at recent controversies
regarding Title IX, which in its most basic statement says, "No person in
the United States shall, on the basis of sex, be excluded from participation
in, be denied the benefits of, or be subject to discrimination under any
educational programs or activity receiving federal financial assistance."
(From the preamble to Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972.) Title IX
is variously praised as the vehicle that has fostered the progress of women's
athletics in the U.S. (most notably demonstrated by the performance of American
female athletes at recent Olympic Games) and condemned as reverse
discrimination and the death knell to many collegiate athletic programs. Using
the resources of the EDSITEment-reviewed Oyez Project: A Supreme
Court Multimedia Database, students can explore the historical and legal
contexts of the debate over Title IX. A search of the archived cases for
"Civil Rights: Sex Discrimination: Other" yields the following
instances in which the Supreme Court has tackled the issue of Title IX:
Davis v. Monroe County Board of Education (1999)
NCAA v. Smith (1999)
Gebser v. Lago Vista Ind. School Dist. (1998)
Grove City College v. Bell (1984)
(Borrowed from the EDSITEment lesson
plan #437, "Women's Equality: Changing Attitudes and Beliefs".)
6.Ms. Magazine publicizes the personal
In 1972, Gloria
Steinem launched a mainstream magazine focused on real women's issues. The response to Ms. Magazine was phenomenal and the preview issue sold out
immediately. To help students understand
the significance of this publication during the Women's Rights Movement read
Carolyn Heilbrun's comment:
women throughout the country, it was mind-blowing.
Here was,
written down, what they had not yet admitted they
felt, had always
feared to say out loud, and could not believe
was now before
their eyes, in public, for all to read.
To help students
explore the continued importance of this publication, go to www.msmagazine.com. Click on About and read the Ms. Herstory. Have students answer the following questions:
How does the title of the magazine set
it apart from other mainstream women's magazines like Good Housekeeping, Glamour, and Ladies
Home Journal?
Why was the content of Ms. so relevant to women's lives in the
seventies? How did the makeup of this publication differ from other women's
magazines at the time?
How does Ms. magazine continue to support the feminist movement and women's
issues today? How has this magazine
profoundly and permanently affected American society?
To extend this
activity to current women's issues click on Feminist Wire
and have students chose a recent news article.
Students might also spend some time browsing the Ms. website and feminist Internet gateway. Students may also want to visit the www.msfoundation.org
to gain an awareness of the legacy of Steinem's creation.
6. The Mass Media and the
The mass media is a
powerful force in shaping how Americans perceive national events. Certainly the negative, condescending and
biased media coverage of the 1970s Women's Movement influenced American perceptions
of feminism and female inequality and greatly shaped national attitudes about
the term "feminist". Consequently, the stubborn image of the radical,
man-hating, "bra-burner" influenced many women and men to distance themselves
from the movement, just as it was reaching its peak.
Divide the class into groups and assign each
team one or more of the following archival documents. Assign the documents to
the groups according to your knowledge of their work styles so that each group
will take about the same amount of time to finish the assignment below. It's
fine for some documents to be analyzed by more than one group. Note to students
the variety of media among the documents.

Inferences and Evidence," on pages 1-2 of the PDF file (see Preparing to Teach
This Lesson, above, for download instructions), to focus on some specific
attitudes toward women. Remind students to think about the assumptions about
women these various documents express. What fears of (some) men do they
Reconvene in a whole-class setting. Have student
groups share their documents and the conclusions they derived from them about
attitudes toward women. Did students notice any other attitudes/assumptions
about women not included on the worksheet? Make a list of these attitudes.
II. Attitudes Today
What attitudes about women are expressed in the
media of today? Using the list of assumptions and attitudes completed in Part 3, above, as a
starting point, students could create a form or forms for analyzing any or all
of the following to gauge attitudes about women today:
* situation
comedies on network television
* newspaper
* television,
print, or online advertisements
* articles
in women's and/or girls' magazines
* public
opinion in the local community
Each form would be a matrix listing, in the
leftmost column, the specific attitude(s) for which a student should be looking
while allowing spaces to the right for noting sources and evidence. Working individually
or in-groups and focusing on one particular medium, students should cite
specific examples they believe either perpetuate or debunk the stereotypes,
assumptions, and attitudes on their list. Reconvene the class to share results
orally or in written summaries and analyses of the data collected. What
attitudes toward women did student research detect? Do all media express the
same attitudes? Do particular media express particular attitudes? Which, if
any, attitudes from the past persist?
(**Part II and I were borrowed from the EDSITEment lesson plan
Contemporary Anti-Feminist Rhetoric
Have students analyze
the backlash of antifeminist organizations on the Internet. Discuss how these Websites play on past
fears, prejudices and stereotypes about feminism and women's equality. Connect these themes to the many obstacles
facing women in the 1970s Women's Movement.
Antifeminist Sites World Wide
Anti-Feminist, Pro-Men Web Page
Local Media Influences
Have students visit
their local historical society or public library to research their regional
newspaper. Investigate the newspaper
archives focusing on media coverage of the Women's Rights Movement. Students may have a particular event and date
in mind or they may simply want to peruse the paper's focus during the 1970s. Examine how the newspaper covers feminist
events and leaders.
8. Connecting to the Past
Herstory Interview Project:
As a final assessment of this unit, have students
interview a local
woman who was becoming a professional during the 1970s. The following is a diverse list of
significant women in Cheshire County, New Hampshire who continue to play an
important role in their community through local government, support services,
education and medicine. Have students
choose a woman to interview based on their interest in her profession.
State Liquor commissioner;
former Keene mayor; state representative and 12-year member of the Democratic
National Committee
Representative of the 25th NH House District (Keene)
Councilor At Large - 2004
to 2005
Keene Chamber of Commerce
Member: Finance, Organization and
Personnel Committee
Cynthia Georgina
Councilor Ward five - 2004
to 2007
Keene Chamber of Commerce
Member: Municipal Services, Facilities and Infrastructure Committee
Coordinator Planned Parenthood, Keene,
Professor of Women Studies and German,
Keene State College
Monadnock Center for
Violence Prevention, Education Coordinator
Cheshire Medical Center, Gynecology
Students will gain an
understanding and appreciation of the past by embarking on this oral history
assignment. Furthermore, linking the
Women's Movement to successful local women is an excellent way to make a deeper
connection to national events. Some
possible interview questions include:
1. What historical events of the 1970s had the
greatest impact on you?
2. What was your attitude or understanding about
such legislation as Title IX, Roe v. Wade and the Educational Equity Act?
3. Have you ever read or subscribed to Ms. magazine?
4. How have ideas about women and women's roles
changed since the 1970s? What do you
think about these changes?
5. What is easier and harder about growing up
female in the world today versus the 1970s?
6. In your opinion, has the Women's Rights
Movement make a difference in your life?

Intervention Research in Organizations: Some Reflections upon an Empirical Case
Ylenia Curzi Faculty of Economics, Italy |
In this paper, we will describe and discuss an intervention research currently carried out in an Italian medium sized athenaeum. In addition, we will try to identify the appropriate path to assess it. The intervention research at hand aims at changing the existing ways of organizing the administrative work process of the athenaeum, in order to increase the effectiveness and efficiency of the administrative action which supports the implementation of the political decisions made by the athenaeum's academic bodies. We will first draw on the existing organizational literature in order to identify the main features which distinctively characterize intervention research, and differentiate it from other forms of research in organizations. After having described the implications of the recourse to the epistemological choice, and ontological standpoint put forward by Weber for intervention research in organizations, we will describe the empirical case of intervention research at hand. We will highlight the main points that mean it can be regarded as an intervention research prevailingly directed by the epistemological choice put forward by Weber, and the related ontological standpoint according to which the organized work situation is seen as a form of social Handeln. Finally, we will address the issue concerning the most appropriate criterion which should be used to assess intervention research prevailingly directed by Weber's epistemological choice and ontological standpoint.

Federal authorities are investigating a report on Monday that a pilot on an international passenger flight saw a small, unmanned or remote-controlled aircraft in the sky while on its landing approach to John F. Kennedy International Airport in Queens.
In a statement, the Federal Aviation Administration said the incident took place at about 1:15 p.m.
Federal officials did not comment on published reports saying that the jet was an Alitalia flight inbound from Rome.
The FAA said the pilot was approaching Runway 31 Right, bringing him in over Rosedale, when he reported seeing a small drone-type object to air traffic controllers.
The sighting was between four and five miles southeast of the airport and occurred at approximately 1,500 feet.
The flight crew was not required to take any evasive action, and the plane landed safely without further incident. No one was hurt. A local resident told 1010 WINS it was likely a model plane. Additional reports said the FBI also is investigating the incident.

The Global Intelligence Files
On Monday February 27th, 2012, WikiLeaks began publishing The Global Intelligence Files, over five million e-mails from the Texas headquartered "global intelligence" company Stratfor. The e-mails date between July 2004 and late December 2011. They reveal the inner workings of a company that fronts as an intelligence publisher, but provides confidential intelligence services to large corporations, such as Bhopal's Dow Chemical Co., Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, Raytheon and government agencies, including the US Department of Homeland Security, the US Marines and the US Defence Intelligence Agency. The emails show Stratfor's web of informers, pay-off structure, payment laundering techniques and psychological methods.
[OS] POLAND/US/RUSSIA/ENERGY - Poland seeks independence from Russian imports through shale gas despite pollution concerns

pollution concerns
By Associated Press, Updated: Wednesday, May 18, 1:11 PM
WARSAW, Poland - Poland is planning a major investment in shale gas, a
potentially huge source of energy - and environmentally dangerous
chemicals - to break free of dependence on Russian imports and boost its
The use of shale gas, pioneered by the U.S. and Canada, is controversial
for its impact on the environment and will be one of the main points on
the agenda when President Barack Obama visits Warsaw on May 27-28.
o Weigh In
o Corrections?
Some U.S. states were forced to step up environmental standards after high
levels of methane were found in tap water, while France recently put a
similar project on hold.
But Poland seems undeterred by the risks, saying it cannot afford to
ignore such a valuable reserve of energy. On Wednesday, experts from
Poland and the U.S. were meeting in Warsaw to discuss the project.
A recent study by the U.S. Energy Information Administration estimates
Poland's reserves at some 5.3 trillion cubic meters, enough to satisfy the
country's consumption of some 14 billion cubic meters per year for
decades. Now, some 70 percent of needs is covered by Russian gas.
Companies with experience in shale gas extraction in the U.S. and Canada
have obtained licenses to drill in the country. Lane Energy Poland is
drilling a third well in the north after promising results from the first
two wells, said Commercial Director and Poland Country Manager, Kamlesh
To release the gas that has been trapped in porous rocks deep underground
for millions of years, the companies drill deep wells to break the rock
and pump huge amounts of sand- and chemical-laced water to prevent the
cracks from closing. The technology is called hydrofracturing or fracking.
The huge amounts of water used may pose a problem for Poland, where there
is no abundance of it.
Meanwhile, environmental activists say the chemicals used can be harmful
to the environment and humans - near some of the U.S. wells, dangerously
high levels of methane were found in households' tap water.
Lawmakers in Texas, where shale gas is extracted on a large scale,
approved last week the first U.S. law to require drilling companies to
publicly disclose what chemicals they use.
In Europe, a spokeswoman for EU Energy Commissioner Guenther Oettinger
said the potential role of shale gas will depend on whether producers will
comply with European laws, mainly those on environment protection.
European countries are watching the U.S. projects closely for tips on how
to minimize risks, Marlene Holzner said.
France's lower house of parliament has recently taken a first legislative
step toward banning shale gas extraction. Germany has some test projects,
but there are concerns there as well about the environmental impact.
Analysts, however, say Poland cannot afford to ignore such a large source
of energy.
"We have no other way out," says Andrzej Knigawka, head of ING Bank equity
research. "From the point of view of our energy interests it would be
wrong not to try to extract shale gas, knowing that it dramatically
changed the energy balance in America" toward self-sufficiency.

So you've played through multiple prestige levels and handed asses to legions of unwitting noobs. Or perhaps you're one of those unfortunate greenhorns, new to the world's biggest first-person shooter?
Whatever camp you come from, Call of Duty: Black Ops 2 looks to make your CoD experience more refined, more personal and ultimately more fun. Careful consideration has gone into ensuring both hardcore veterans and cack-handed newbie operatives can thrive, without the dumbing down or ratcheting up of difficulty levels. John Rafacz, director of communications at Treyarch, gives us a sit rep.
How have you worked towards topping the narrative of the first Black Ops?
Coming out of the first Black Ops, the team really asked themselves a couple of questions. What can we do that's new that will give people a reason to come back, and ultimately, where are we bringing this style of storytelling? From there everyone started gravitating towards this near-future setting.
Was the future setting chosen to freshen things up for veterans growing tired of the CoD formula?
The near future setting is really that jumping off point, because there's this universe of fresh creativity that it brings up. In multiplayer it has some real-world applications. This is not laser beams and aliens stuff. It retains its plausibility, its authenticity, but at the same time it opens up a new world of gameplay.
What would your message be to the cynics?
I would say that there's a lot on offer! In single player you have innovations like the Strike Force levels. For the first time in a single player campaign you're entering into a sandbox environment that how the ending of your story changes. In a Strike Force level you can fail.
Within multiplayer there's a reimagined create-a-class that allows you to forgo some types of content to build a class that's most valuable to your style of gameplay. And then there are zombies!
How do Strike Force missions work?
At a couple of points throughout the campaign, the head of Special Ops will come to you and explain that there's this flashpoint and that your services are requested. No matter who or what you play as, you'll set waypoints and issue commands in order to achieve objectives. There's definitely a tactical element to it. Also, if you play through the game and succeed at all of your Strike Force levels and I fail at all of mine, (totally likely, by the way) the geopolitical fiction that wraps the ending of your game will be different.
Does this mean you're a terrible CoD player?!
Black Ops 2 welcomes all skill levels and because of that, I've found a home!
We had a letter from a gamer/golfer suggesting a handicap system for less able players...
It's always fun when you win. It can even be fun if you lose, but only where it's been an exciting challenge. However, it's never really fun to have someone wipe the floor with you. And do you know what? We would even argue that the guy that wipes the floor with people isn't really having fun, either.
League Play helps rectify that, and it places you in ladders with players of similar experience, where you're challenged and you're rewarded for advancing. And it really speaks to your golfer!

Botanical description
A large shrub or small tree with spiny branches, glossy green leaves and small, yellow flowers followed by attractive red fruits.Uses
Edible uses
A pepper substitute, it is widely used in the Orient[1][2][3][4]. The Dried fruits can be used directly in a pepper mill[5]. A light roasting brings out more of the flavour[6]. The seed is an ingredient of the famous Chinese 'five spice' mixture[6]. The fruit is rather small but is produced in clusters which makes harvesting easy and each fruit contains a single seed[7].
Material uses
Timber, Dental care, Walking sticks
The wood is heavy, hard and close grained. It has been traditionally used for walking sticks[9][3]. Toothbrushes are made from the branches[9][3].
Ecosystem niche/layer
Ecological Functions
Nothing listed.
Zanthoxylum species are used as food plants by the larvae of some Lepidoptera species including The Engrailed.
Nothing listed.
Seed - best sown in a greenhouse as soon as it is ripe in the autumn. Stored seed may requires up to 3 months cold stratification, though scarification may also help[13]. Sow stored seed in a cold frame as early in the year as possible. Germination should take place in late spring, though it might take another 12 months. Prick out the seedlings into individual pots when they are large enough to handle and grow them on in a cold frame for their first winter. Plant them out in early summer.
Rooted cuttings
Cuttings of half-ripe wood, July/August [Britain] in a frame[7]. Root cuttings, 3cm long, planted horizontally in pots in a greenhouse. Good percentage[14].
Pick the fuits when the papery shells begin to split, showing the black seeds inside. Pick a whole head of fruits at a time, stems and all.
