Even as cultural property faces immediate peril today in conflict zones like Syria and Mali, there is anecdotal evidence that some nations are awakening to the diplomatic and foreign policy benefits that can flow from the repatriation of cultural patrimony.
While on a different scale from World War II, historic structures, religious monuments, and other priceless antiquities continue to suffer collateral damage and exploitation in armed conflict. Antiquities have been stolen, smuggled and sold in what is a reported multibillion dollar underground market. They have become the illicit prizes of private collectors and the subject of legal claims against museums.
So it goes in Syria, where wartime damage to World Heritage Sites, such as Krak des Chevaliers, seems intractable. In northern Mali, too, religious strife has brought ruin to centuries-old, historic shrines in Timbuktu. Where is the constructive potential of cultural property?

People pray outside the Jackson Women's Health Organization, Mississippi's only abortion provider, Saturday afternoon. The "40 Days of Life" public prayer effort at the abortion clinic began Sept. 28 and will continue through Nov. 6, leading up to the Nov. 8 vote on the Personhood initiative.
- Filed Under
Ending abortion. Limiting access to birth control. Skewing population figures. Prompting investigations of miscarriages.
Depending on whom you ask, the Personhood initiative that will appear on the Nov. 8 ballot could have any number of effects if approved.
The amendment seeks to define a "person" as beginning at the point of "fertilization," and Mississippi could become the first state to successfully adopt it. ...

Age of Litigation: Chongqing Wulong Karst Tourism announces its suit against Paramount at a press conference in Beijing, July 23. (Photo/CNS)
A scenic area in Chongqing municipality on Tuesday sued the producers of Transformers: Age of Extinction for failing to show its name in the movie.
According to the Chongqing Wulong Karst Tourism (Group) Co Ltd, the Wulong Scenic Area has filed a lawsuit at Chongqing No.3 Intermediate People's Court, accusing Paramount Pictures Corporation and Beijing-based 1905 Internet Technology Co Ltd, another of the film's producers, of violating the contract. The court has accepted the suit.
The area asked Paramount Pictures to show the logo "China Wulong" in the blockbuster in all DVDs, TV and digital platforms, and demanded producers return 4.8 million yuan (about US$770,000) of contract payment.
Moreover, it has demanded producers bear its claimed economic losses of 4 million yuan (US$640,000) as the area was closed to the public for several days while filming took place, and to compensate its expected profit losses of 12 million yuan (US$1.94 million).
The Chongqing company claimed that producers promised to show the name of the scenic spot on the screen, but the logo was nowhere to be found after Transformers debuted.
The film also combined the site of Wulong with some scenes shot in Hong Kong, causing some confusion among the audience.
Transformers: Age of Extinction, the fourth installment in the robot movie franchise, has taken more than 1.9 billion yuan (US$307 million) since its debut on June 27.

My Favorite Epic Album Covers « Read Less
Me and music have been in a happy relationship for 20 years. I'm totally the girl who has to rewind a certain part when the drums are just too insane to handle or a vocal note hit me like a ton of bricks. I usually hit friends during live shows to make sure they caught that epic moment. Yeah, you might not wanna listen to music with me.
Album covers have always been a favorite of mine. It's sad that it's slowly becoming a lost art form. I have some pretty interesting one's hanging in my room on vinyl (It's SWEEEEEET, come check it out sometime).
So I'll share some EPIC one's with you.

Study Help at the SLC
As a hard-working Berkeley student, it's important to understand all of the resources our school provides for us. One such resource is the Student Learning Center located in the Cesar Chavez building (behind and below the Golden Bear Café). For those of you unfamiliar with the SLC, it offers all kinds of study-related help to students including drop-in tutoring, personal one-on-one tutoring, study groups, mock exams, and more! Perhaps the best part of the SLC is that it's FREE! Sounds too good to be true? Well think again!
My experience with the SLC has been nothing more than positive. I've attended review sessions for math classes, mock exams, and lots and lots of drop-in tutoring. I guarantee that you will not leave the SLC without learning something new. It may seem a bit confusing or even intimidating finding exactly which methods work for you, as most of the programs are not very personal. However, there may be some other options you haven't considered. For example, there's a CNR-themed Chem 1A study group just for students with intended CNR majors. How cool is that?!

As soon as Thanksgiving is over, jump headlong into the Christmas spirit by celebrating the 12 days of turkey. Leftovers, that is.Whether you're in the mood for quick and easy sandwiches, warm soups or comforting stratas, we've got the recipe for you. Get started right after the Thanksgiving meal has been cleared by storing leftovers properly. White Lily flour company suggests storing leftover foods in shallow containers and refrigerating them within two hours of cooking. Cooked turkey should be eaten or used in leftover recipes within three days, and all leftovers should be reheated thoroughly to 165 F. If you're not going to use the cooked turkey within three days, it can keep for three months in the freezer. Pressed Cuban Turkey Sandwiches A traditional Cuban sandwich is made with roast pork and thinly sliced ham. This recipe subs in leftover turkey and ham. For best results, use two cast-iron skillets or a sandwich press. 2 soft Portuguese rolls or soft French sandwich rolls, sliced lengthwise Prepared mustard, to taste 1 large dill pickle, thinly sliced lengthwise 4 ounces roast turkey, sliced 4 ounces ham, thinly sliced 3 ounces sliced Swiss or provolone cheese Butter, softened Spread each roll with mustard. Arrange half of pickle, turkey, ham and cheese slices on each roll, press together gently. Spread outsides of rolls with butter. Place sandwiches in cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Put second skillet directly on sandwiches. Press down, and grill 5 to 10 minutes on each side or until cheese is melted and sandwich is flattened and browned.

|GATA1 mutations in acute leukemia in children with Down syndrome.
MedLine Citation:
|PMID: 16631466 Owner: NLM Status: MEDLINE
|It has been reported that somatic mutations in the X-linked GATA1 gene are present in hematological clonal disorders in children with Down syndrome (DS). We analyzed retrospective samples of DS children with acute myeloid leukemia, transient leukemia (TL), and myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) to test whether the specificity of GATA1 mutations can be helpful in distinguishing these hematopoietic disorders. A total of 49 samples were subjected to GATA1 mutation screening by direct sequencing and denaturing polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE). Mutations in exon 2 of GATA1 were detected in six of eight DS-AML M7 samples and in four of six DS-TL; no mutation was detected in 13 children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (DS-ALL), 6 with DS-AML (M0, M2, and M5), 6 with DS-MDS and in 8 DS infants without hematological disorders and 2 children with AML M7 without DS. Blast cells proportion in the sample represented a critical aspect on the sensitivity of mutation detection in GATA1, and a combination of sequence analysis and PAGE is necessary to detect mutations when blast percentage is low. The absence of detected mutations in any of the DS-MDS cases raises the question whether MDS in DS children is an intermediate stage between TL and AML M7, as previously suggested.

Relates to notification of discharge by the department of environmental conservation; requires costs to provide the community notification shall be borne by the party responsible for the discharge or spill.
TITLE OF BILL: An act to amend the navigation law, in relation to notification of discharge by the department of environmental conservation
Section 1 amends § 175 of the Navigation Law to require the Department of Environmental Conservation, after a petroleum discharge or spill, to notify the surrounding landowners and tenants. Section 2 enumerates the effective date.
JUSTIFICATION: Despite major and minor underground spills or discharges of petroleum in New York, there is no statutory requirement that the Department of Environmental Conservation ("DEC") notify surrounding property owners or tenants. New York State has approximately 52,000 storage facilities which involve an estimated 125,000 bulk storage tanks. Leaks and spills occur as a result of poor housekeeping, overfilling of tanks, loading and unloading mistakes, and poor maintenance and inspection. According to the DEC, each year it receives approximately 16,000 reports of confirmed and suspected releases to the environment - roughly 90%. of the spills reported involve petroleum products.
In 2001, for example, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency ("EPA") inspected 33 mid-Hudson Valley gasoline service stations. With additional information provided by the owner of the stations, the EPA determined that 60 gas stations were operating tanks in violation of federal law. The stations serve twenty New York counties. In 1993, in Flanders, gasoline fumes in a residential basement helped DEC to determine that anywhere between 100 and 1,000 gallons of petroleum had leaked from an underground storage tank for a nearby gasoline service station, Private wells were tested and determined to be contaminated. Private drinking water wells are the primary source of potable water for businesses and residences near the station. Additional statewide examples, large and small, exist including the Gowanus Canal in Brooklyn, Newtown Creek in Queens, New Windsor and Liberty in Orange County. Underground storage tanks range in capacity from a few hundred to 50,000 or more gallons, and are used to store gasoline, heating oil and other fuels, waste oil and hazardous substances at gas stations, marinas, government facilities and large industrial sites. Leaks from tanks often contaminate the soil around the tanks, and can cause unhealthy gasoline vapors to settle into the basements of private homes and apartment buildings.
Underground storage tanks have historically been the nation's number one source of ground water contamination, with over 500,000 confirmed releases and spills reported nationwide as of 2011. EPA and states' underground storage tank regulations were put in place to prevent releases of petroleum, and, if a release does occur, to insure that it is addressed immediately. Surrounding homeowners and tenants should know when that is happening.
LEGISLATIVE HISTORY: 2005-06: Senate Environmental Conservation Cmte. 2007-08: Senate Environmental Conservation Cmte. 2009: Environmental Conservation Cmte. 2010: S.4511 - Environmental Conservation Cmte; Notice of Committee Consideration - Requested; Reported and Committed to Finance; Reported and Committed to Rules 2012: S.4678 Environmental Conservation Cmte.
FISCAL IMPLICATIONS: None to the state. Costs to be borne by violators.
EFFECTIVE DATE: This act shall take effect thirty days after it shall have become a law.

Ok I don't really as yet know you guys, but, I have had the most fantastic weekend.
I went to my freinds barn which is only 40 mins away from where I live, I keep my boys over an hour away which is a pest.
The farmer has offered me my own yard, its just down from the main yard, (i don't like being on big yards full of people they pester too much) and he said he has a seperate yard. It has two brand new stables, eight acres and its very private. Went to have a look, I can build three more stables onto it if I like, he is flattening an area for an arena, and I just bought some electric fencing to split the field into two. It also has a running spring through the field too for water which is awsome, so am going to get a filtration system for it so I don't have to worry about carrying buckets. Also therre is a lady who lives right at the back and she will give them water if their buckets go down and im not there. Its really peacefull and quiet, and it has a private bridle path that belongs to the farm running right at the side that goes for a couple of miles. I am really pleased about it and snatched his hands off lol.
I had my own yard when I lived in america and I miss it sooo much but now, just by luck I have another one, which I will build on and do as I want with it.
Though I would tell you guys my news!!

River Phoenix, older brother of Joaquin Phoenix, died in 1993 when he was just 23 years old. His final movie, "Dark Blood," has just been completed and will premiere at the Miami International Film Festival, The Wrap informs.
The psychological thriller directed by George Sluizer was not finished at the time the actor passed away of a drug overdose, and was only completed last year.
It premiered at the Dutch Film Festival in the fall, and will open in the US this year. Hopefully, it will be picked up by a distributor after the Miami Festival premiere.
"'Dark Blood' is a film of legend, one of Hollywood's great mysteries. The tragic loss of River Phoenix's outstanding talent is still profoundly felt 20 years later. We are proud that George Sluizer has honored Miami as the place to finally share his remarkable collaboration with Phoenix and the other great artists involved with 'Dark Blood'," Jaie Laplante, MIFF executive director, says.
"Dark Blood" also stars Jonathan Pryce and Judy Davis. Above you will find the official trailer.

FORT COLLINS — That "statement" game Colorado State coach Jim McElwain wanted Saturday only told everybody — including a big homecoming crowd — that the Rams still are a long way from making some noise.
"This one hurts," McElwain said after the 34-27 loss to San Jose State. "I can't tell you how sick I feel for all the people that came out to support us. It's disappointing, very disappointing."
A crowd of 26,022, the largest at Hughes Stadium in two years, watched the Rams fall short in their Mountain West opener. Colorado State (2-4, 0-1) was outscored 17-3 in the second half.
"We talk all the time about finishing," said CSU quarterback Garrett Grayson. "Coach Mac says you can start fast all you want, but if you don't finish, things like this can happen."
The best way for a visiting team to quiet a boisterous crowd? Pop some huge plays. CSU's defense figured to yield some "chunk" plays to San Jose State (3-3, 2-1) and the Spartans' slinging senior quarterback, David Fales. But too many went for the whole enchilada.
Regarded as an NFL prospect, Fales finished with 431 yards passing and burned the CSU secondary for touchdowns of 83, 77 and 62 yards. The last of those came on what appeared to be a simple "bubble" or "slip" screen in front of the Rams' bench, the kind that may net 10 yards. But wide receiver Tyler Winston darted behind a block and then raced the distance to put the Spartans up 34-27 with 5:36 remaining.
Colorado State had to punt away its ensuing possession, and San Jose State was able to run out the clock.
"I think we answered the call," said first-year San Jose State coach Ron Caragher.
CSU, on the other hand, is still looking for answers with the season almost reaching the halfway point of the Rams' 13-game schedule. For one, poor tackling remains an issue.
And, oh, those gashers. Fales' other touchdown bombs went to running back Jarrod Lawson (83 yards) and wide receiver Chandler Jones (77) in the second quarter.
Colorado State had enough players in the secondary, employing a "dime" formation of six defensive backs for much of the game. Trouble is, the Rams lost track of receivers and Fales made them pay.
On the touchdown to Lawson, Fales scrambled to his left to avoid a possible sack by CSU linebacker Shaquil Barrett. Then Fales threw back to his right and hit Lawson sprinting out of the backfield with no defender near him.
"It's keeping your eyes right," said CSU senior cornerback Shaq Bell. "When the quarterback starts running, you still have to lock down on your guy."
Colorado State's Grayson threw for 310 yards (a career best) and three touchdowns, including scores of 50 and 35 yards to emerging tight end Kivon Cartwright. But that's not what the homecoming crowd will remember about the game. There was too much disappointment.
CSU plays next Saturday at archrival Wyoming. The Cowboys' Brett Smith may be the best pure passer in the conference.
"We can't let that guy control the game like this guy (Fales) did," McElwain said.

Creighton Slides Past South Dakota State, 2-1
OMAHA, Neb. - Freshman Kaelyn Korte's first goal as a Jay led the Creighton women's soccer team past South Dakota State, 2-1, on Wednesday, Sept. 19.
With the win the Jays moved to 3-5-2 on the season, while South Dakota State fell to 2-6-1.
Senior Brittney Neumann got the Jays on the board late in the first half, taking a pass on the left side from Korte. Neumann raced past two South Dakota State defenders into the middle and blasted a shot by Jackrabbit keeper Elisa Stamatakis at 39:57. It was Neumann's fourth goal of the season and 28th as a Jay.
The 1-0 lead, however, did not last long as South Dakota State evened the game at 1-1 in the 44th minutes. Stacy Guijarro scored the Jackrabbit goal, taking a pass from Sheridon Newberry then pushing it in at 43:40.
The match went to halftime tied at 1-1. South Dakota State held a 9-5 edge in shots, while Creighton created three corner kicks to just one for the Jackrabbits.
South Dakota State controlled possession through the opening 15-20 minutes of the second period, but Creighton took advantage of an opportunity in the 67th minute.
Junior Lauren Cingoranelli set things in motion as she found Korte along the left side of the field, 15 yards outside the goal. Korte took two steps and fired home her first goal as a Jay, giving her three points on the night.
Staked to a 2-1 lead, the Jays were able to frustrate the Jackrabbits, holding South Dakota State to just five shots in the second period.
South Dakota State's best chance to tie the game a second time came with just under eight minutes remaining. Senior keeper Katie Jo Swanson came out to deny a shot to South Dakota State, but the ball glanced off her body. The ball bounced to Guijarro, who prepared to fire. This time, however, sophomore Madelyn Buckner came charging for a team save to preserve the 2-1 lead.
Swanson finished the game with nine saves for the Jays, while Stamatakis finished with two saves for the Jackrabbits.
South Dakota State finished the match with a 14-8 lead in shots, while Creighton held a 5-1 lead in corner kicks.
Creighton returns to the pitch on Sunday, Sept. 23 as the Bluejays host Oral Roberts at 1 p.m. in Morrison Stadium.

Read: The Role Mike Rupp Has
In the comments section recently, Alex said this about Mike Rupp "And how many shots did Rupp block? 0 ! Because he is too slow to even block shots. He is a disgrace as a player and should be sent to Charlotte. He isnt even good enough to play in the AHL! "
Howiehockey said in the comments section of another post, "I'd buyout Rupp. With the exception of one or two games he has been a total bust.
And his intimidation and fighting skills have diminished greatly. Devereaux would be a lot better. Slats are you listening."
John Tortorella has praised Mike Rupp as one of the "glue guys" on the hockey team and Brandon Prust says that he looks up to Rupp.
Tortorella has also said that he "loves" Mike Rupp and following the Winter Classic, Tortorella said "I'll tell you what he did right away before he steps on to the ice. There's a respect he brings to that room and he's a great pro and he brings an intangible."
On an episode of Behind The Bench towards the end of the season, Tortorella said that Rupp has done a great job mentoring young players in how to be a pro and that he will often calm Tortorella down on the bench.
Adam Rotter: I like Rupp and think that he is very valuable to the team. Not everyone is a 20 goal scorer or someone who makes a big difference every night on the ice. The best part of Rupp has always been how he is off the ice and while $1.5 million per year for three years may seem steep for that, it is something that the team values. You need character guys in the locker room and veterans who make their biggest impacts away from the ice. He is much more than a fighter to this team and the guys in the locker room love him.

Lisa Bayliss-Pratt: 'Students will be told how to get caring right from day one'
Health Education England has signed up to embedding the 6Cs in education and training, says Lisa Bayliss-Pratt
While I would be the first person to defend the reputation of the NHS, and rightly point to all those occasions when nursing care in particular, and wider healthcare in general, is first class - we know there are still too many times when we fail. Of course Mid Staffs has brought this into sharp focus most recently, but let's not use that as an excuse for wider failings.
Too many things go wrong across the NHS every day, but simply admitting that is not nearly enough. We continue to fail those people who turn to us for help when they need it most if we don't actively work to make things better and improve the quality of care we offer.
"I am committed to embedding the 6Cs from the moment young people begin to think about nursing as a career"
Health Education England has started its work in this area by signing up to the 6Cs in education and training: care; compassion; competence; communication; courage; and commitment. It is a pledge to drive improvement that I wholeheartedly support. We are ideally placed to play our part in the drive for better care throughout the NHS.
There are currently just under 160,000 people funded by the NHS in the education system. Every minute, £10,000 is spent on their education and training so we have every right to expect the 6Cs mentioned. In fact, if we fail to achieve a minimum of caring, compassion and competence, we're clearly wasting that money. So I am going to focus on to the other three.
Communication: the NHS has one million face-to-face interactions with patients and the public every 36 hours. The ability to communicate includes having confidence in yourself - speaking like an ordinary person in ordinary language; it involves a lot of listening. We need to teach communications more.
Courage: you need to be brave to be a nurse. The things we see, the things we do, the patients we help and those we lose - the impact of these things on an individual is huge and requires courage. But that's not nearly enough. Yes, we need to do our jobs but we need to do so much more - we need to stand up for our patients when things are wrong, to stand up to colleagues and to make a stand if that is in the best interests of our patients.
Too often people who should have known better have simply looked the other way. It has to stop. From day one of nurse education and training, we need to be absolutely clear about the right way to do things. Nurse leaders must find their own courage to support anyone acting in the best interests of patients.
Commitment: any nurses joining our education and training programmes will be committed to their course and to the service in which they will work after graduation. I want students to be clear that nursing is a priority for the NHS and it will be an exciting and fulfilling career - it should be a number-one choice, it doesn't take second place to anything.
Before we spend thousands of pounds training people, we want to interview them and test their commitment. We are recruiting for values and we need to make sure it's what they really want to do - that doesn't happen in clearing.
I am confident a cooperative and collaborative approach between service and education providers will give us a future workforce that will not only deliver high-quality care, but will also be equipped to develop and deliver new and dynamic services for patients.
I am committed to embedding the 6Cs from the moment young people begin to think about nursing as a career and ensuring the next generations of nurses and their leaders don't need to consider implementing their own version.

Readers' comments (22)
Instead of sighning up to the "C" nonsense why not ensure that student placements are fit for pupose?
That of course would require the Bayliss-Pratts of the world to get out of their comfortable offices and ensure that wards are properly staffed and that mentors actually have time to care for students !
Will this be done ? I doubt it !
Much easier to continue to expect students to gain good practical experience on understaffed wards and have little or no access to mentors !
"Embracing" the "C" nonsense is much easier than to challenge the poor quality placements provided to many students !
unless these students and prospective qualified staff are treated right throughout their entire career all the 'C's and the very best will in the world ain't going to help.
it seems that the 'authorities' of nursing believe that the six 'C's will protect nurses from all ills and all the knocks they will get in life.
girls and boys, just give an air of confidence, give a nice compassionate smile and communicate, show you have courage against all adversity and turn the other cheek even when there are no other staff to support you, and just soldier on the best you can and deliver as much as you can with your knowledge, skills and competence and the world is your oyster and everybody will worship and adore you, even though none of these attributes will be much use to you if you don't have all the extra resources required to do the job adequately.
student nurses, along with everyone else working within health-care should have compassion and care about people. what will happen to those who are already working who don't care?
the biggest C that seems to be missing is Common Sense - sadly lacking in todays society. Staff need common sense, patients need common sense. Some problems and their solution are so blindingly obvious.
I often disagree with some of the blinkered views expressed on this site, but I do agree with Annonymous 5-Feb-2013 11:14 am:
'Some problems and their solutions are so blindingly obvious' and you are right, common sense is so often blindingly obviously missing.
The 6C's are not new, they are part of nursing, they are why most of us became nurses and therefore to say they are rubbish is to say the reasons we became nursing is rubbish. This too is blindingly obvious.
What some people are missing is if we have a strategy and vision that articulates what we have known all along and the NHS signs up to this, the more intelligent amongst us will see this as a tool to help us fight some of the nonsense that threatens the care we give. For me, this too is blindingly obvious - we can use these 6 values to stand up and fight back.
What about the other 2 C's? Ms Pratt only talks about 4. Can we ignore the others? Already cutting corners.
Still, nothing like talking a load of gobbeldegook to make people think you are important. Take this beauty, 'The ability to communicate includes having confidence in yourself - speaking like an ordinary person in ordinary language; it involves a lot of listening. We need to teach communications (sic) more.'
Leaving aside the terrible grammar and syntax of this statement, are we allowed to be 'Ordinary people speaking ordinary language'? Can we now swear at patients when we are busy, tell them to get off their arses and do it themselves? I'm just thinking about the next time I see the consultant and tell him about the patient admitted with a 'Connery'
Instead, why not encourage us to think we are extraordinary people, doing an extraordinary job, not one that any Tom, Dick or Harry can do.
Pratt by name, I'm afraid. Bet she hasn't washed a patient since the '80's
" For me, this too is blindingly obvious - we can use these 6 values to stand up and fight back."
so if anybody complains about care ever again all we have to do is stand up on our soap boxes and pronounce the six 'C's in our defence?
redpaddys12 | 6-Feb-2013 6:30 am
'speaking like an ordinary person in ordinary language'
I don't think that is intended to mean swearing at laymen - I suspect it means talking 'like a person' instead of using standard 'defensive phrasing' (one I hate, is 'Lessons have been learnt' from senior managers, with no detailed explanation - meaningless !), not blindly 'following some sort of engagement protocol', and answering questions clearly and openly, in a way that whomever you are talking to might understand.
DH Agent - as if ! | 6-Feb-2013 10:20 am
I think they will continue repeating that until the unlikely event that they really have learned something ,or somebody challenges them to clarify their meaning, or tells them to stop!
Just imagine an hc professional committing a dangerous act like a surgeon chopping off the wrong limb and just turning round and tellibg the patient by way of apology that 'lessons have been learned'. What lessons and at whose enormous and irrecuperable cost?
Doesn't say how this is going to be achieved, in the old days when I trained we were interviewed by the hospital Chief Nursing Officer at the hospital we were offered a place at. During our training we were continuously assessed for our attitude, appearance, communication skills - the reason so many nurses are rude, uncaring and thoughtless now is because someone somewhere has allowed them to complete their training and given them a job. If you have a thoughtless careless ward manager then it cascades down and staff get away with bad behaviour, it becomes the 'norm' and anyone who fights against it gets pushed out of the group or leaves.
I am really hoping the Francis Report puts an end to bullying and puts the responsibility on managers to get rid of useless, rude, lazy, uncaring staff. There are plenty of people out there who would make great nurses, give them the opportunity and get rid of the dross.
it doesn't take much intelligence to grasp the fact that when you are talking to a patient you should take in their frame of reference and explain what you mean.
If Einstein were trying to explain his theory of relativity to me i'm sure he would try to word in a way i could understand it. Bit like Prof Brian Cox does on his programme so we can all understand what the heck he's going on about. Heaven help us all.
Common sense isn't so common.
THE SICK 'C's?
The sick 'C's make me see 'C' sick!
'Students will be told how to get caring right from day one'
Hasn't this always been the case, Miss Bayliss-Pratt? Are students not already being taught the '6Cs' plus a lot of other fairly useful nursey stuff? Because NONE of these 'C's are new. Do you think because Bennett and her crones sat around in an office, at Cameron's behest to come up with a new gimmick, that this is new? We know what it takes to become a decent nurse, because the overwhelming majority of us are decent nurses. We don't want gimmicks. We need safe, well staffed, well resourced environments where we can fully provide the care that we ALREADY KNOW how to give. Now how about doing something about that?
mags | 7-Feb-2013 1:41 pm
'Students will be told how to get caring right from day one'
it is insulting to all the past generations of nurses.
of course it is not new as you say Mags but now suddenly for some reason some human qualities associated with nursing have to be spelled out and all assigned the same letter of the alphabet to give a simple visual reminder which will fit on a 'C'redit card even though we all already know the qualities of nursing and our alphabet. Of course these will neatly fit into our pockets and can be pulled out and the bedside or at any other time to rescue us if we are in any doubt.
It is also rather offensive to new students who one would assume possess certain qualities which make them fit for a place for a nurse training course or do they really think a return for these bright young people to kindergarten is necessary.
I wish these old timers would engage their cognitive skills in trying to produce something of more practical application required to resolve the current crisis such as staffing levels. I think they may be quite amazed at how the compassion of care and quality of nursing would dramatically improve. Otherwise what is the point of their posts?
We could have all sat at our computers and drunk coffee and eaten biscuits all day dreaming up only six characteristics which could be applied to nurses and at a far lower cost to tax payers.
what a delusion this whole costly exercise is.
The 6c I was taught when I trained 23 years ago, and a halt to those who say that puts me out of touch; working on a children's ward since then I am very much in touch and my clinical practice is very much based on those 6 CS; why because in the first 6 weeks of my training: the olde fashioned way I was taught to communicate with patients bath and feed them and attend to "personal care" before I got anywhere near a Ward.
If that is not a foundation for 3 years training and a future nursing career I don't know what is.
Now student nurses spend their first 6 weeks being taught to be students not student nurses; they have freshens week we had common foundation.
Moving to make student nurse training had its pros but may also have its definite cons!
Try teaching basic nursing care because if we can't get the basics taught right what hope do we as a profession or the patients we are entrusted to care for have?
I worked with a Care Assistant in Devon, it recently came to my notice that she has a warning marker on her CRB Check for giving a patient an injection of insulin, she was reported to her employer by the district nurse and sacked for gross misconduct, this dose could have been fatal to the patient if the district nurse had given her a further dose, i have worked with this girl and similer things have happened and she is still working in care homes, she should be blacklisted before she causes more harm, her name is Sherina Cornish, and she works in the Devon area Exeter and Okehampton, Be Warned Check her CRB.
I hope they teach the student nurses to be BRAVE and BOLD when requesting for more staff when the ward is in a DANGEROUS way and THE 6 'c's CANNOT be accomplished for every patient as there is NOT ENOUGH STAFF.

Red, you are too clever to not ahve noticed something you did read, so i'm guessing you fell into the 'scanning' trap and missed this part of the article, by Lisa:
'In fact, if we fail to achieve a minimum of caring, compassion and competence, we're clearly wasting that money. So I am going to focus on to the other three.'
Anonymous | 6-Feb-2013 11:11 am
I have something of a dislike for 'tick-box protocols' - but I do think that writing 'the other kidney' on the patient's skin, prior to an operation, tends to be one of the situations where 'process' makes some sense.
My local Police Force claims 'we learn lessons' but is very reluctant to elaborate as to exactly how !
The peculiar thing, is that these days almost all 'guidance/protocol' can be tracked down and read by laymen, because it is almost always online - so it is hugely easier to critique those things, and to tell professionals ' that can't be right, because': but 'engagement mechanisms', for want of a better phrase, have not yet caught up with the new 'everyone is now connected to everyone and everything' age, in my opinion. This easier availability of 'stuff' is one of the things that encourages me, regarding bottom-up change.

Every minute, £10,000 is spent on their education and training so we have every right to expect the 6Cs mentioned. In fact, if we fail to achieve a minimum of caring, compassion and competence, we're clearly wasting that money'.
Of course but we are also clearly wasting money on management that aren't interested in patients too.
What came first, the chicken or the egg?

Using a wide variety of weaponry including guns, bombs and nuclear explosions, players can wreak destruction on any and all figures that dare to cross their path.

Awesome shooting game is back again!
And it's working just fine on my iPhone 3GS, so I'm moving this back up to 5 stars.
Unfortunately I do not enjoy this game. The graphics, controls, and gameplay are a bit poopy. Doesn't require much skill or technique, just screen tapping. Good luck to the developers for improving in the future.
A bloody good time
This is the most fun game I've ever played. It's pretty bloody and gory, but that's what makes is satisfying.

My biggest question so far revolves around soy sauce: most of the "actually Jamaican" recipes I'm seeing call for quite a bit of soy sauce in the marinade (this one, for example), while the Americanized reconstructions tend to omit it (or they seem to use Jay Solomon's recipe). Is soy sauce an authentic ingredient?
Anyway: any foolproof jerk pork recipes out there? And no I can't get my hands on pimiento wood to smoke it over (at least I don't think I can)....

Comet 67P◄ Anomalies◄ Alien Creatures Objects In Motion And Humanoids Fo...
Some incredible alien creatures, objects in motion,
humanoids and structures have been found In NASA/ESA
Images of Comet 67P.
As we explore the NASA/ESA images of
Comet 67P we will see some incredible sights.
What we see will make us question
everything and leave us wondering about what is
going on.
This video is an in depth look at just one
of the images. What they reveal is pretty amazing.
A creature moving across the surface of the comet.
Objects that are clearly in motion, spewing material
and leaving a trail behind them.Humanoid figures and what
looks like a possible burial scene, a lone figure
seated in front of two crudely made crosses with
the ground disturbed beneath them. There is
also a large building complex one of several seen,
that seems to have what looks like a fountain
in the center. There is a vehicle and machine
like objects. A sphinx like object
with what resembles a human head and more...
The anomalies in just this one image
alone are astounding.
There are other images that reveal
incredible anomalies and structures as well.
One has been done by Enigma Digest and
the link to that video is below so you can access that
information too. It contains some very interesting info
regarding the signal Comet 67P is emitting.
When all is taken into account what's seen in the images,
the signal the comet is emitting, the fact that this
comet was targeted to land the Philae on, we must question
what is going on. Interesting that Philae in Greek means
Is there an alien race currently on the comet?
Is the comet used as an alien base for stop overs?
Was there an alien scientific expedition possibly
gone wrong?
Was the signal the comet is emitting a distress signal?
A sign of an intelligent race?
Is this a secret mission carried out by our own
space agencies or other humans from earth?
While I don't have all the answers,I know that what's seen in the images
is extraordinary and I ponder the possibilities.

A recent NASA image shows what appear to be earth-like structures and houses.The NASA images
seem to have so many amazing mars anomalies it's impossible to ignore them. In this image we see
a group of buildings eerily reminiscent of typical homes and buildings on earth. Grouped together
as a small village or settlement the similarities are incredible.
The more images I see like this the more I want to know ...
What is going on?

Amazing Mars Anomalies◄NASA Secret Project◄Seeding Mars With Life◄Snake ...
This recent NASA image seems to show an amazing scene that has astounding implications. In the image we see what appears to be a snake resembling a Cobra coming out of a basket. Next to it is a containment vessel with air holes. It would seem that the snake was transported there in the containment vessel, possibly on the Mars rover, and the basket placed there so that it could initially take refuge. Is it possible that NASA is working on a secret project
to seed Mars with life? Populating it with life forms from earth most likely to survive?
Is it possible that they have already colonized Mars and they are merely building a stronger and
more varied foundation with different species of life from earth?
What is seen in some of the Mars images certainly suggests that it is a possibility.
Perhaps part of the rovers mission is to monitor the life forms sent there. It would go a long way
in explaining some of the images of rodents and other animals found in NASA images on Mars.

NASA UFO's◄ STS-48 Incident◄ Amazing UFO Footage ★★★
Amazing NASA UFO footage from the STS-48 Incident.
Taken while in orbit on 15 September 1991 the video shows a flash of light and several objects
that appear to be flying in an artificial or controlled fashion.
Two of the objects clearly make controlled sharp turns and
head off in different directions.
One of the most hotly debated and discussed NASA UFO incidents
the footage is fascinating to watch!

Amazing Mars Anomalies◄ NASA Image Shows Mayan Like Face Sculptures And...
Amazing Mars Anomalies in one of the most recent NASA images taken by the Mars Curiosity Rover.In this image we can see what appear to be Earth like lakeside houses , a sculpture that has several heads one of which is very reminiscent of Ancient Mayan sculptures, some wood and other odd artifacts. The sculpture is amazing in that the base seems to be a separate piece carved and polished smooth with the heads placed on it. Once again a NASA image has me asking just
what is going on?

Beth Am gives thanks by hosting youth
The Temple Beth Am Preschool conducted its annual Scott Boord Memorial Thanksgiving Celebration on Monday at Temple Beth Am in Jupiter.
The preschool's special guests for the occasion were the children in the Jupiter Head Start Program.
"I think this is a wonderful way to start the season," said Paula Deakter, the preschool director. "We have been doing this for years and found that the best way is to have all the kids sitting together and make it a real program for them."
The event began with hands-on activities at arts and crafts tables, followed by a Thanksgiving play performed by Temple Beth Am students.
At 11:30 a.m., a Thanksgiving luncheon was served to 240 students, teachers and temple members, including 67 students and teachers from Jupiter Head Start.
Most of the food for the event was provided by MorseLife, with additional baked goods from the Hollywood Cupcake Store.
"As a temple member and a preschool mom, I think it is a very important event," said Malinda Linkhorst, co-chairwoman of today's program.
"It brings the community together during this special time of year."

Sweet and Sour Brisket
This recipe features a tangy, mouthwatering glaze of apricot jam, cider vinegar, and chili sauce, adding great flavor to the meat.
Hint: You can't rush good brisket. Resist the temptation to skip steps with this time-consuming recipe and you'll be rewarded by meat so tender, it melts in your mouth.
Potato-Apple Kugel
We've taken a classic potato kugel and enhanced it with Fontina cheese and a Granny Smith apple. It's a creamy, sweet-tart combination that's sure to please.
Hint: Squeezing the water out of your grated potatoes helps give this pudding its winning texture.
Broccoli-Cheddar Kugel
There's no such thing as having too many kugels. Nothing beats holiday comfort food, and this kugel is as cozy as it gets, with a gooey baked-cheddar topping.
Hint: This recipe lets you make eight individual cup-sized portions, but if you don't have that many small baking dishes, you can also use a 3-quart casserole.
It wouldn't be a Hanukkah dinner without these classic potato pancakes. Try our traditional recipe, or feel free to add your own touch with fresh herbs or even different grated veggies, like parsnips or sweet potatoes.
Hint: Latkes are best served fresh and don't take well to reheating so be sure to avoid the microwave. Keep in a warm oven until ready to serve.
Fresh Apple Relish
Applesauce might be the usual partner for latkes, but this sweet and tart apple relish is ready in a snap and a good alternative. With apples, onions, raisins, and ginger, it's destined to become your new holiday tradition.
Hint: Save yourself time on the day of your gathering and make this tasty relish a day or two ahead.
Fried Dill Pickles
A mix of egg, flour, and a touch of cayenne pepper becomes a crisp batter for fresh full-sour pickles. Ready in less than ten minutes, this tasty snack will become a favorite year-round.
Hint: This recipe may only use basic ingredients, but you'll want to have an instant-read or candy thermometer on hand to check for the correct frying temperature.
We've never seen a prettier loaf of bread, and this tender loaf's taste more than lives up to its looks. Feel free to save leftovers to use for an incredible French toast breakfast or in bread pudding.
Hint: Take your time when working with the dough. If it becomes too soft to work with, place it in the fridge briefly to cool so that the butter firms up a bit and it's easier to handle.
An easy filling of apple butter, chopped walnuts, and dried currants make this homemade rugelach a perfect pick for an after-dinner treat with tea.
Hint: Made from basic cookie dough, this version takes a lot of the guesswork out of creating this traditional pastry treat.

Mr. Elias Hurtado has gone to a better life, but like most good educators he has left his footprints in the valley.
This is Sunshine Week, a time to recognize the importance of openness in local, state and national government. It's a good time to remind ourselves that open government is necessary to maintain the ideal that government should be an institution of, by and for the people.
Congratulations to all the candidates for participating in the democratic process. The Home Rule Charter was passed and two new city councilors and a mayor have been elected. This is wonderful news.
Now is the time for citizens to continue their involvement in city government by attending City Council meetings and urging our elected representatives to do the work necessary to correct the neglect of the years.
Thumbs UP for ... FIRST TIME EVER. Highlands University is sending its men's basketball team to the NCAA Division II tournament. The Cowboys qualified as a No. 6 seed for this weekend's regional tournament in Mankato, Minn., and will face No. 3-seeded Augustina College at 11 a.m. Saturday.
Congratulations to coach Joe Harge and his team. It's the second straight 20-win season and the first time in the school's history to make it to the tourney.
While voting turnout was low, I would like to thank all voters who came out to exercise their constitutional right in Ward 1 as well as citywide. I want to thank all residents of Ward 1 who supported me during my campaign and gave me their trust and confidence.
As I stated during the council race, my door will always be open to listen to our neighborhood concerns as well as citywide issues. I congratulate the winners, pray and hope that the new council and mayor will provide direction and leadership to unite us and move the city of Las Vegas in all areas of city government.
What does the future hold? Like everyone else, we at New Mexico Highlands University wish we could know with certainty, but we can't.
Nonetheless, planning for the future is essential. Since early 2009, Highlands has been working with Studio Insite, an architectural firm specializing in helping universities plan for growth. They have examined existing facilities, pedestrian and vehicular flow patterns, and the university's programmatic and enrollment goals to formulate a master plan for the university's future.
I would like to thank both the members of the Las Vegas Fire Department and Gallinas Fire Department for all the help they gave me while I was in need of heart surgery. Also, thanks to everyone who contributed toward my cause.
Everything was greatly appreciated. I went through my heart surgery and am doing well. Thank you again.

'What's happened to Lee?" my friend Susan Swan straight-facedly asked me this week, and I fidgeted while attempting an answer.
"Well, Lee, our erstwhile features editor at the Optic, isn't with us any longer," I think I answered. Susan responded, "I don't mean that Lee."
But let's back up a little. We'll get to the other Lee in a few graphs.
Language is what people say it is, which is why you won't ever find me criticizing its usage.
Yeah, right.
