Faculty: Health and Human Sciences Title of Programme: BSc (Hons)/ BSc in Pre-registration Midwifery Programme Code: HHMW Programme Specification Start Date: September 2009 Date of Approval: June 2009 Associate Dean (Academic Quality): JO CAHILL Signature Programme Specification BSc (Hons)/ BSc in Pre-registration Midwifery This programme specification (PS) is designed for prospective students, enrolled students, academic staff and potential employers. It provides a concise summary of the main features of the programme and the intended learning outcomes that a typical student might reasonably be expected to achieve and demonstrate if he/she takes full advantage of the learning opportunities that are provided. More detailed information on the teaching, learning and assessment methods, learning outcomes and content for each module can be found in Definitive Module Documents (DMDs) and Module Guides. Section 1 Awarding Institution/Body University of Hertfordshire Teaching Institution University of Hertfordshire University/partner campuses College Lane Programme accredited by Nursing and Midwifery Council Final Award BSc (Hons)/ BSc All Final Award titles Pre-Registration Midwifery FHEQ level of award Honours UCAS code(s) 1860 Full time 1850 Part time A. Programme Rationale The rationale for this programme is to provide students with a wide range of theoretical and practical experience to equip them to function confidently and competently in a wide range of midwifery care settings. Enquiry based learning and a blend of adult learning approaches are facilitated to ensure that students develop their critical analytical abilities to enable them to respond to the dynamic practice environment. Students enter this programme with a wide range of personal experience, which is valued and respected; this in turn results in students who provide an individualised, respectful service to women and their families. This programme provides two different routes to the award of Registered Midwife, which can be achieved at Bsc (Hons) or BSc levels. This provides students with the option of taking the programme full time over three or four years or part time over five years. The structure of this programme therefore widens participation for students with diverse social needs and enables them to access midwifery education. Graduate midwives are well equipped for clinical practice. They are also provided with a good foundation should they consider a career in management, research and education. B. Educational Aims of the Programme The programme has been devised in accordance with the University's general educational aims of programmes of study as set out in UPR TL01 Additionally this programme aims to: prepare student midwives for entry to Part 2 of the Nursing and Midwifery Council's 1 Professional Register, in accordance with the professional and statutory requirements. prepare student midwives who are committed to the enhancement of health and social care through inter-professional collaboration develop a responsive, confident midwife who at the point of registration is competent to practice in a variety of settings within the philosophy of this programme equip the student midwife to be safe, effective and competent in caring for women experiencing normal childbirth recognising the need for appropriate referral to other health professionals. equip the student midwife to act as an advocate and facilitator of change using an evidence- based approach in theory and practice actively involve students in midwifery caseload, preparing them for autonomous practice develop transferable communication skills to enhance critical decision making and to utilise appropriate information technology prepare student midwives for employment and demonstrate a commitment to ongoing personal and professional development, C. Intended Learning Outcomes The programme outcomes are referenced to the QAA benchmark statements for Health Studies (midwifery) 2006, the Framework for Higher Education Qualifications in England, Wales and Northern Ireland (2008), the Standards of Proficiency for Pre-registration Midwifery Education (NMC 2004) and relate to the typical student. Additionally, the SEEC Credit Level Descriptors for Further and Higher Education (2003) have been used as a guiding framework for curriculum design.

DUBLIN, IRELAND -- (Marketwired) -- 07/10/14 -- Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/29fxqt/cyber_security) has announced the addition of the "Cyber Security Market 2014-2019: IAM, Encryption, DLP, Risk and Compliance Management, IDS/IPS, UTM, Firewall, Antivirus/Antimalware, SVM/SIEM, Disaster Recovery, DDoS Mitigation, Web Filtering, Security Services" report to their offering.
In the report, the cyber security market is defined as a combination of market for security types and services. The security types segment of cyber security includes sub-segments such as network security, endpoint security, application security, content security, wireless security and cloud security while consulting services, design and integration, risk and threat assessment, managed security services, and training and education are the sub-segments under services segment. The playing fields of the market are aerospace, defense, intelligence, government, public utilities, healthcare, telecom and IT, manufacturing, retail and others.
With change in business environment due to Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) model, cloud-based services and wireless communication, the security requirements are also showing signs of evolution. Cyber security market comprises innovative and sophisticated cyber solutions. The technologies are showing continuous growth patterns. Antivirus and antimalware solution is expected to acquire the highest market share during the forecast period among all major technologies owing to increase in adoption of such solutions by organizations of multiple sizes as well as consumers. Increase in number of sophisticated threats along with the rapid adoption of cloud-based services is expected to keep the market growing for such solutions in the coming years.
Next Generation Firewall (NGFW), an advanced version of the firewall that filters network and internet-based traffic concentrating on application-specific granular security type and helps to detect application-specific attacks is another major solution having significant share among all solutions. NGFWs blend the features of traditional firewall with Quality of Service (QoS) context in order to provide effective detection. It deploys the functionalities of first-generation network firewalls and network Intrusion Prevention Systems (IPS), Secure Socket Layer (SSL) and Secure Shell (SSH) inspection, reputation-based malware filtering and Active Directory integration support. Rapid growth in internet usage, advanced persistent threats, transition from network layer to application and file layer attacks are the key emerging trends responsible for increasing the demand of such solutions.
The cyber security market in turn also has some challenges in its growth path. The facilitation of high speed internet is leading to continuous piracy of security software and affecting the growth and validity of authenticated software. Simultaneously, the widespread distribution of cheap competitive products is restraining the growth of major cyber security solutions vendor market. These all are the consequences of lack of awareness about the security alignment with the business portfolio by the customers and enterprises.
There are various assumptions that have been taken into consideration for market sizing and forecasting exercise. A few global assumptions include political, economic, social, technological and economic factors. For instance, exchange rates, one of the economic factors, are expected to have a moderate rating of impact on this market.
The report is expected to help the market leaders/new entrants in this market in the following ways:
1. This report segments the market into types, solutions and services, covering this market comprehensively.

While not quite mainstream yet, WebRTC is starting to gain ground with Carriers, Enterprises and Independent Software Vendors (ISV's) alike. WebRTC makes it easy for developers to add audio and video communications into their applications by using Web browsers as their platform. But like any market, every customer engagement has unique requirements, as well as constraints. And of course, one size does not fit all. In her session at WebRTC Summit, Dr. Natasha Tamaskar, Vice President, Head of Cloud and Mobile Strategy at GENBAND, will explore what is needed to take a real time communications ...

We've been top-8 for 6 of the past 7 seasons, and what do we have to show for it? One playoff series win. This team is not that different from last seasons, so it's not as if we're so close to the cup with how this team is currently constructed. Poile hasn't done anything to make them better than last year. So what's the point?
With the return we could get from Suter, I still think we're top-8, and hopefully the return we get will be here for a while. This organization cannot afford to let Suter walk others before. He's just that much better than all of the others.

I think you're right that Poile has to set a deadline with Suter but that's all he has to do at this point. Beyond that, look for the best possible deal if it comes along. If it doesn't, like someone else said, we're better off keeping Suter and letting him walk or trying to negotiate once the season is over.
We all speculate what's happening but what if Suter and Weber told Poile we'll take care of this once the season/playoffs are over? Has anyone considered that? Me included. Maybe they are committed to staying but they don't want it to be a distraction to the team and doing that now is just that. Now granted, not doing it is a distraction because of all the possible rumors.
What difference does it make if there are bitter feelings in the negotiations? He's apparantly not signing anyway. Hockey is a business, and these are all grown men. I think they can stomach a little bit of honest talk, because that's all that it is.
If Suter didn't want to make this a distraction, then sign the deal. Heck, he could have signed it at anytime. The fact that there is speculation and hand wringing makes it all the more of the distraction.
Let's face it, Suter does want to try the open market. That's fine. I have no problem with that. But Nashville has to protect it's assets, and that's all that this is.

Palestinian Toll Mounts in Gaza as Obama Defends Israeli Assault
President Obama has announced his full support for Israel's ongoing assault on the Gaza Strip even as dozens of Palestinians, including many civilians, continue to be killed by U.S.-supplied weaponry. At least 37 people have been killed in Gaza since Sunday, including at least 20 civilians. In the deadliest attack to date, 12 civilians, most of them members of the same family, died on Sunday when an Israeli warplane bombed their home in Gaza City. The victims included four small children and five women, one of them the children's mother. Overall, at least 95 Palestinians have been killed — half of them believed to be civilians — since Israel began its assault last week. The number of Palestinians wounded nearly doubled on Sunday to 660 as Israel carried out its deadliest day of bombings to date. But as the Israeli attack escalated, President Obama gave his full backing while on a visit to Thailand.
President Obama: "There's no country on earth that would tolerate missiles raining down on its citizens from outside its borders. So we are fully supportive of Israel's right to defend itself from missiles landing on people's homes and workplaces and potentially killing civilians."
The Palestinian death toll is believed to include at least 20 children, including seven killed on Sunday. Speaking at a hospital in Gaza, a young Palestinian child issued a plea to the world for help.
Nawal Azard: "To the world and [its] people: Why should we be killed, and why shouldn't we have a normal childhood? What did we do to face all this?"
Israel Wounds Journalists in Attack on Gaza Media
In addition to attacking civilian homes, Israel has also targeted Palestinian media. On Sunday, six Palestinian journalists were wounded when Israeli missiles slammed into the Gaza offices of the Hamas TV station, Al Aqsa, and the Lebanon-based Al Quds TV. A number of international media outlets, including Fox News, CBS and Sky News, have used studios in the targeted buildings. One of the victims lost his leg. Reporters Without Borders has condemned the attacks as "war crimes." At a protest in the West Bank, a Palestinian government spokesperson denounced the targeting of journalists.
Nour Odeh: "There are more than 300 Israeli attacks registered against the Palestinian journalists. We lost more than 20 colleagues in past years because of the Israeli occupation. Today the message (from the Israeli strike) is clear against the freedom of journalism and opinions."
Palestinian Rocket Fire Drops, Israeli Toll at 3
As Israel's assault continues, Palestinian rocket firings dropped to around 75 on Sunday, after a two-day average of 230 rockets. Three Israelis have been killed and around 80 wounded by Palestinian rocket fire so far. According to Israeli government statistics, Israel has carried out more than 1,350 attacks since launching the offensive last week. More than 540 Palestinian rockets have fallen inside Israel, all but 35 in open areas. Egyptian officials have been holding separate talks for a ceasefire with Palestinian and Israeli representatives in Cairo, but a deal is not expected at least for several days. Israel has even called up reservist troops as it prepares for a potential ground invasion of Gaza.
Protesters in Tel Aviv, D.C. Rally Against U.S.-Backed Assault of Gaza
Protests were held around the world over the weekend in opposition to the Israeli assault on Gaza, including one that saw hundreds rally in the Tel Aviv.
Leah Roshad: "I am here in order to protest the attack of Gaza that was clearly planned from months long, but at the same time was timed this way in order to serve as an election spin and to distract the public discourse from issues of social justice, from issues of economy."
With the United States fully backing the Israeli attack, dozens of people also rallied in front of the White House to urge President Obama to stop the assault.
Shawn Traish: "They're occupying. They're killing innocent people. It's a terrorist state, and it's not fair to the Palestinian people. So the United States should make Israel abide by the U.N. resolutions. They don't abide by the resolutions."
Obama Pays Landmark Visit to Burma
President Obama has visited Burma, the first time a sitting U.S. president has done so in history. Earlier today, Obama met with President Thein Sein and visited the home of the opposition leader Aung San Suu Kyi, before delivering a speech in the capital Rangoon. The trip marked a major new milestone in the Obama administration's easing of sanctions on the ruling Burmese junta.
Thousands Protest Keystone XL Oil Pipeline Outside White House
Thousands of people rallied outside the White House on Sunday calling on President Obama to reject the Keystone XL tar sands oil pipeline. The Keystone XL would carry crude oil from Alberta's tar sands to the Gulf Coast, a project opponents say would produce lethal levels of carbon emissions while endangering communities along its path. Obama now faces a decision on the pipeline's approval after delaying it until after the 2012 election. The group 350.org, as well as other environmental organizations, say the rally marked the first in a series of actions that will culminate in another major protest against the Keystone XL on President's Day, February 18, 2013.
1 Dead, 1 Missing in Fire on Gulf Coast Oil Rig
At least one person has been killed and another is feared dead after a massive fire erupted Friday on an oil platform in the Gulf Coast. Another four workers have been hospitalized, two in critical condition. The rig's operator, Black Elk Energy, says only a small amount of oil was spilled as a result of the blast. It came just one day after the oil giant BP agreed to pay a $4.5 billion fine for the 2010 Deepwater Horizon oil rig explosion that killed 11 people and caused the worst offshore oil spill in U.S. history.
Obama Calls Corporate CEOs as "Fiscal Cliff" Talks Begin
President Obama spoke with a number of corporate executives over the weekend in his ongoing bid to shore up support for tackling the so-called fiscal cliff of tax cuts and spending hikes set to kick in at the end of the year. The White House says Obama consulted with top business leaders, including JPMorgan Chase's Jamie Dimon, investor Warren Buffett, and the heads of Apple, Boeing and Costco. The discussions followed the first day of talks with congressional leaders on Friday. Both House Speaker John Boehner and Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid sounded a positive note after Friday's meeting.
House Speaker John Boehner: "We've put revenue on the table, as long as it's accompanied by significant spending cuts. And while we're going to continue to have revenue on the table, it's going to be incumbent for my colleagues to show the American people that we're serious about cutting spending and solving our fiscal dilemma."
Senator Harry Reid: "We're both going to have to give up some of the things that we know are a problem, and so it's like when we arrive at a point where we all know something has to be done. There is no more 'let's do it some other time.' We're going to do it now. And I think there's — we feel very comfortable with each other."
2nd Conspirator Sentenced in NYC Subway Bombing Plot Case
A Bosnian-born U.S. citizen has been sentenced to life in prison for planning a suicide bombing on the New York City subway system on behalf of al-Qaeda. Adis Medunjanin was allegedly days from carrying out the plot before he was detained in 2009. Medunjanin's co-conspirator is an Afghan national who has said he wanted to seek revenge for civilian deaths in his home country.
Protesters Hold Weekend of Actions Against Military Training Base in Georgia
More than 2,000 protesters marched outside Fort Benning in Georgia over the weekend calling for the closing of a controversial military training base there. Formerly known as the School of the Americas, the Western Hemisphere Institute for Security Cooperation has been used to train Latin American soldiers in combat, counterinsurgency and counter-narcotics. Dubbed by organizers as "the largest annual anti-militarization gathering in North America," the three-day protest culminated Sunday in a "die-in" and funeral procession to remember the victims killed by U.S.-trained military forces.
Family, Supporters Mark 1-Year Anniversary of Chamberlain Killing
Today marks the one-year anniversary of the killing of Kenneth Chamberlain Sr., an African-American Marine veteran in White Plains, New York, shot dead by police in his own home. On November 19, 2011, White Plains police officer Anthony Carelli shot Chamberlain inside his apartment after police responded to a false alarm from Chamberlain's medical alert pendant. Despite Chamberlain's insistence he was alright, police broke down his door, tasered him and shot him dead. One officer was heard on a recording calling Chamberlain a racial slur. The Chamberlain family has filed a wrongful death suit against a number of defendants, including the city of White Plains and Officer Carelli. On Saturday, Chamberlain's relatives joined with the NAACP and other supporters for a march on the White Plains Police Department demanding justice in the case.

Saturn Vue Car Covers
The purchase of a Saturn Vue car cover is something you should consider doing, especially because it enhances not only the looks of your car but also its value. With he cover on, you Vue will be protected from UV ray, moisture, humidity, snow, dusts, rust, droppings from birds and insects, dents caused by careless actions by other motorists, children and the average pedestrian, industry pollutants and a range of other pollutants in the environment. There are many car covers in the market, but not all are good. The reason why you shouldn't walk into an auto store by the street and buy the first cover you set your eyes on is because that cover will not fit onto your car well. At least there is a great probability of that happening. The only way you'll get a cover that fits right is if you buy a custom made cover, purposely designed for the Saturn Vue. Check out the range of Saturn Vue car covers available at CARiD. They are designed to fit onto your car perfectly, and give many years of service, thanks to their durability.
Among the models you can buy for the Saturn Vue are the Custom Sunbrella, which is perfect for hot weather conditions; the Custom Weathershield, which protects against all weather conditions and is therefore a handy, all-season steal; the Custom Polycotton and Custom Tan Flannel, both of which offer maximum protection from dust, heat and moisture indoors; and the Custom Saturn Vue Ultratect, which is the cover to go for when you need to leave your Vue in the outdoors for long periods of time. This is one of the most hardwearing covers you can get, as it never loses its color or strength. If you only use your Vue once in a while and keep it in storage most of the time, there is a cover that can serve you well: the Custom Form-Fit from Covercraft.

Camille Juban: AWT / Weendy Rider of the Week
Every time Camille Juban hits the water, whether he is freesailing, training, or competing on the American Windsurfing Tour (AWT), you can expect to see a lot of raised eyebrows. Last year, this very talented windsurfer finished 1st overall on the AWT. Weendy caught up with Camille straight after he placed 1st place in Pistol River Wave Bash this year.
Seilnummer: GPE 8
Nasjonalitet: French
Alder: 23
Startet Windsurfing: På 16 år
Residence: Guadeloupe
Hjem Spot: St Anne
Sponsorer: Maui sails, Fire, orange caraïbe, long horn, Tainos, Hyundai, MFC
AWT Debut: 2010
Divisjon: Pro
Favorite Equipment: 4.2 mutant and 70L thruster
Favoritt Move: Frontside 360 when it's a bit less then mast-high and side-off wind
Weendy: Tell us how you started windsurfing.
Camille: Guadeloupe has been my home since I started windsurfing. It's really [good] to learn in the Caribbean cause the wind is not too strong, it is consistent and there are some easy waves. Now I'm just choosing the best session which is pretty rare and light wind but so good. We have a little crew always motivated so it's a pleasure.
Weendy: How did you get into competing? We've seen you in some PWA events in the past, now it looks like you are 100% focused on the AWT Tour.
Camille: I started competing in the PWA first when I was 15 cause my sponsors wanted, and I wanted to try everything.
And then I think I got addicted and I choose the AWT because I liked the spots better and I just love doing this tour.

As the media firestorm continues in Indiana, your GetReligionistas have heard from readers asking to know the essential differences between the Indiana law that is under attack and the Religious Freedom Restoration Act (RFRA) passed with bipartisan enthusiasm during the administration of President Bill Clinton. Simply stated, the national RFRA has served as the models for the various state RFRA bills through the years, including the law that -- when he was in the Illinois state senate -- drew the support of Barack Obama.
Reporters covering this story may, in addition to actually studying the contents of the bill, want to study the impact these state bills have had in the 19 states that have adopted the same language. This Washington Post piece, with map, is quite helpful. Have these bills been abused? There may be stories there.
Yes, it's crucial for reporters to actually consider what happens when these bills are used in real cases, with real defendants, in real courts, even in conservative zip codes. Consider, for example, this Texas press release in 2009 in which the American Civil Liberties Union cheered the state's RFRA law:
The Texas Supreme Court ruled in favor of Pastor Rick Barr who challenged an ordinance passed by the City of Sinton (Barr v. City of Sinton) to close a half-way house for low-level offenders across from the pastor's church, Grace Christian Fellowship.
"Today's decision is significant because it is one of the Court's first cases to affirmatively construe Texas' Religious Freedom Restoration Act (RFRA)," said Lisa Graybill, legal director of the ACLU of Texas. ...
"This decision sends a strong message to state and local governments in Texas that the Court will not tolerate state action that targets a religious group, whatever their faith," said Graybill. The court's ruling upholds the intent of the RFRA to prevent state and local government officials from substantially burdening the free exercise of religion, including religious practices and religiously motivated conduct, without a compelling justification for doing so, she explained. "This is a major victory not just for Pastor Barr and Philemon Homes, but for all Texans who cherish religious freedom."
However, journalists seeking guidance on style issues related to RFRA laws -- should, for example, terms such as "religious freedom" and "religious liberty" be framed with scare quotes -- may want to consult another authoritative source. That would be The New York Times. However, in this case we are talking about the Times of 1993.

Representative Darrell Issa, Chairman of the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee, has subpoenaed a key Justice Department official regarding the Fast and Furious gunrunning scandal.
President Obama's Justice Department and Attorney General Holder have continued to stonewall and hide the truth about this ill-conceived program that gave thousands guns to Mexican drug cartels and left one U.S. Border Patrol agent dead.
The Hill has the latest:
Issa … issued a subpoena for Patrick Cunningham, the chief of the Phoenix office's criminal division within the U.S. Attorney's office in Arizona.
In a letter to Cunningham sent on Wednesday, Issa said Justice Department (DOJ) officials have suggested that Cunningham is "the most appropriate person to interview from the U.S. Attorney's Office regarding Operation Fast and Furious."
"Senior Justice Department officials have recently told the committee that you relayed inaccurate and misleading information to the department in preparation for its initial response to Congress," said Issa in the letter, which was made public on Thursday.
1.20.12 Update: Cunningham has informed Issa's committee that he intends to plead the Fifth, further preventing the truth from coming to light about Operation Fast & Furious. According to Politico, Cunningham's attorney wrote:
"As a professional courtesy and to avoid needless preparation by the committee and its staff for a deposition next week, I am writing to advise you that my client is going to assert his constitutional privilege not to be compelled to be a witness against himself . . . ."
1.23.12 Update: Chairman Issa responded to Cunningham's letter informing the committee that he would plead the Fifth, stating:
The assertion of the Fifth Amendment by a senior Justice official is a significant indictment of the departments integrity in Operation Fast and Furious . . . . This is the first time anyone has asserted their Fifth Amendment right in this investigation and heightens concerns that the Justice Departments motivation for refusing to hand over subpoenaed materials is a desire to shield responsible officials from criminal charges and other embarrassment.
Issa's committee still expects to receive testimony from Attorney General Holder on February 2, 2012. As Jay Sekulow, ACLJ Chief Counsel, has said, "What the American people are entitled to, quite frankly, is an Attorney General who tells the truth - the complete story about Operation Fast & Furious."
You can join the ACLJ and over 52,000 Americans in calling on Obama's Justice Department to tell the truth by signing our Petition for the Truth about Operation Fast & Furious today.
We will continue to keep you informed as developments unfold.
We've seen this movie before. With the Obama administration, a familiar pattern is emerging. Trusting his own wisdom, President Obama resists oversight, goes to legal war against leakers and whistleblowers (at least those who make it look bad), and launches or proposes military offensives against...
Like so many others , I find it impossible to believe Brian Williams simply "made a mistake." At the risk of indulging in armchair pop psychology, I'd say it's far more likely that a titanic ego collided with reality, and reality lost. In my own experience, there are few things more humbling than...
You know its bad for President Obama when the late night comedy shows start cutting through his Administration's mainstream media-memorizing spin and exposing his lawlessness. Conservatives aren't the only ones shouting from the rooftops about President Obama's reckless disregard for the...
I would say that I pity Chuck Hagel. After all, here was his mandate: Maintain America's strategic position while shrinking American military power and amplifying the Obama administration's desires for global disengagement. It turns out that the SECDEF could accomplish only two of those missions.
