Yummy sugary tasting lipgloss, I have it in clear and I like it, only one gripe and that is that the tube is just too damn small so it doesn't last such a long time.

A little bit thick and sticky, but the colors are great. Perfect if you want a really glossy, colorful lipgloss instead of something sheer.

Well, i have to say, the smell isn't that plesant but i don't mind that much because i don't usually smell my lipglosses or taste them either. I got a 8 pack of these, small obviously. I liked all of them, especially a red gold-spakle one and a very light sparkley pink one. i would repurchase, experiment with the colors i like.

I was shocked at how streaky and uneven the color was. I prefer lighter, sheerer lip glosses but I've never used one that was so thick and dry before. It also dried my lips out something fierce and had a tendancy to gather in the corners of my mouth. I hope I just got a bad batch of it but I'm not about to buy another one to find out.

Oh is this gloss amazing! It tastes like cherry cola and the product isn't sticky. It glides on nicely and has a pretty color.

I have this gloss in Sugar Coat, and I am almost done the container, which is not something I usually do. I got this when Sephora opened up here in T.O. and I was just wanting to buy some new stuff I haven't tried before. To my surprise this has been one of the nest l/g's I have ever used. The colour is a nice neutral that looks very natural on my already dark lips. Its staying power isn't the greatest however it fades evenly. I don't even mind the smell, which reminds me of Dr.Pepper. The price is a little high ($15CDN) yet, I do know that I will repurchase b/c it is so great!!

i'm not sure i'd buy this color again [parme--the purple with glitter], but sephora continually impresses and surprises me with their lip gloss. the more i've tried of their lip gloss, the more i like it. it doesn't compare to some of the other lip glosses i use [sheisdo in particular] but for $1, it's amazing.

Love and love again my latest Sephora brand bargain clearance purchase off of sephora.com. I had no colors to choose from as the last left shade was purple glitter. I thought.. "not a bad color for $1".. and right I was.. this shade is very awesome and wearable on me. I also really like the feel and taste as well.

Although the color was nice, there's something about the smell of this lip gloss that made me feel queasy. Since the smell isn't the greatest, and considering your lips are right under the nose, I will not be re-purchasing.

Download the EMEA Report Card PDF
During a turbulent year for Europe, one during which the recession rumbled on, the Eurozone debt crisis worsened, and the end of the Eurozone appeared to be a real possibility-the public relations industry did not exactly flourish, but it certainly performed better than many observers (including this one) would have anticipated under the circumstances.
The industry's recovery, which began for most firms in the latter stages of 2010, continued throughout 2011, and over the course of the year most of the 200 or so businesses profiled in this publication either held their own or experienced modest growth. Overall, we would expect 2011 industry growth in the
EMEA region in the mid-single digits-a respectable year.
It seems clear that two trends-both analyzed in greater detail in the coming pages-drove much of this growth. The first is that public relations firms have moved into a more central role in both corporate reputation management and brand building. In the former arena, activities such as corporate responsibility and executive leadership positioning (both of which might have been reduced in previous recessions) are now seen as vital to organizational success, and are therefore sustained despite weak economic conditions. Employee communications and organizational change is an area of growth; there has been no decline in the need for crisis communications. In the latter brand-building space, meanwhile, companies are seeing the need to engage with their consumers in new ways, most notably through digital and social media. They are coming to recognize that conversation and dialogue build
strong customer relations, and that is shifting their focus beyond a reliance on advertising to include a broader role for other disciplines, including PR.
The second trend is the involvement of PR firms in a broader range of content creation than ever before. PR firms have always produced a variety of creative materials for their clients-from annual reports to employee newsletters and in recent years a variety of web content. But today, they are being asked to produce mobile apps, infographics, blogs, games and even television programming.
One final factor in the industry's growth is the continuing maturation of the PR business in emerging markets, in Eastern Europe, Russia and the CIS, Turkey, the Middle East and Africa. There are strong, capable firms in all of these markets, and their best work is as good as the work clients have come to express in more developed countries. Many of these firms are profiled in this volume.
While agency leaders are looking ahead to 2012 with a measure of justified trepidation, it is important to note that the threats to our industry's prosperity are mostly external; the broader economic condition in Europe is beyond our control. But internal factors, the industry's response to the dramatic changes in the communications landscape over the past few years, continue to present plenty of opportunity.

Figure 6.
Effect of the co-incubation of X. campestris pv. campestris with plant cell wall material on the composition of the dissolved monosaccharides. The identity and relative amounts of the monosaccharides in the supernatant of X. campestris pv. campestris co-incubated with cell wall material of C. annuum was determined by HPAEC. The sugars were separated and identified using an isocratic elution with10 mM sodium hydroxide and amperometric detection on a CarboPac® PA-100 column, a set up that allows detecting the dissolved neutral sugars. The results were compared to the supernatant of an X. campestris pv. campestris culture that had had no contact to plant cell wall material, and to analogously treated cell wall material that had not been incubated with bacteria. The supernatants of plant cell wall material (A) and the X. campestris pv. campestris culture (B), which were analyzed as controls, were both mainly composed of glucose (Glc), galactose (Gal), and rhamnose (Rha). When plant cell wall material and X. campestris pv. campestris culture were co-incubated (C), the amounts of rhamnose and galactose increased dramatically, reverting the original relative abundances. In addition, small amounts of mannose (Man) became detectable.

Google I/O is just a few days away and if you were expecting to see a brand-new OS or a revolutionary device— then you will probably be a little disappointed at this tidbit of news. Android head Sundar Pichai recently expressed some hints of what we can expect to see, especially for all of you developers out there:
"It's going to be different. It's not a time when we have much in the way of launches of new products or a new operating system. Both on Android and Chrome, we're going to focus this I/O on all of the kinds of things we're doing for developers, so that they can write better things. We will show how Google services are doing amazing things on top of these two platforms".
Yeah— it's definitely a bummer, we know. Fortunately there is a silver lining to look forward to: the development and arrival of some pretty neat concepts and improvements to the Android and Chrome platforms. In his interview, Pichai highlights that because of the Android platform's flexibility and design, consumers are able to see the arrival of Facebook Home, part of many "welcome innovations". Additionally, items like Amazon's Kindle Fire series of tablets and its customized Android software represent the computer explosion of today, which is a benefit for consumers of all.

Mehdi Hasan exposes misconceptions about the continent
Explore Japan through its offbeat train culture
28 Apr 2013 13:47 GMT | Politics, Arts & Culture, US & Canada, United States
President Barack Obama has joked about his plans for a radical second-term evolution from "strapping young Muslim Socialist" to retiree golfer, all with a new hairstyle like that sported by first lady Michelle Obama.
Obama used this year's annual White House Correspondents' Association dinner to poke fun at himself and some of his political adversaries, asking if it was still possible to be brought down a peg after four-and-a-half years as commander-in-chief.
Entering to the rap track "All I Do Is Win" by DJ Khaled, Obama joked about how re-election would allow him to unleash a radical agenda. But then he showed a picture of himself golfing on a mock magazine cover of "Senior Leisure".
"I'm not the strapping young Muslim Socialist that I used to be," the president remarked on Saturday, and then recounted his recent two-for-22 basketball shooting performance at the White House Easter Egg hunt.
Celebrity audience
But Obama's most dramatic shift for the next four years appeared to be aesthetic. He presented a montage of shots featuring him with bangs similar to those sometimes worn by his wife.
Obama closed by noting the nation's recent tragedies in Massachusetts and Texas, praising Americans of all stripes from first responders to local journalists for serving the public good.
Saturday night's banquet not far from the White House attracted the usual assortment of stars from Hollywood and beyond. Actors Kevin Spacey, Julia Louis-Dreyfus and Claire Danes, who play government characters on series, were among the attendees, as was Korean entertainer Psy. Several cabinet members, governors and members of Congress were present.
And despite coming at a sombre time, nearly two weeks after the deadly Boston Marathon bombing and 10 days after a devastating fertiliser plant explosion in West, Texas, the president and political allies and rivals alike took the opportunity to enjoy some humour. Late-night talk-show host Conan O'Brien headlined the event.
'Minority outreach'
Some of Obama's jokes came at his Republican rivals' expense. He asked that the Republican's minority outreach begin with him as a "trial run" and said he would take his recent charm offensive with Republicans on the road, including to a book-burning event with Michele Bachmann.
Casino magnate Sheldon Adelson would have had better success getting Obama out of office if he simply offered the president $100m to drop out of last year's race, Obama quipped.
And on the 2016 election, the president noted in self-referential irony that potential Republican candidate Senator Marco Rubio was not qualified because he hasn't even served a full term in the Senate. Obama served less than four years of his six-year Senate term before he was elected president in 2008.
The gala also was an opportunity for six journalists, including Associated Press White House Correspondent Julie Pace, to be honoured for their coverage of the presidency and national issues.
The New Yorker's Ryan Lizza won the Aldo Beckman Award, which recognises excellence in the coverage of the presidency.
Pace won the Merriman Smith Award for a print journalist for coverage on deadline.
ABC's Terry Moran was the winner of the broadcast Merriman Smith Award for deadline reporting.
Reporters Jim Morris, Chris Hamby and Ronnie Greene of the Center for Public Integrity won the Edgar A. Poe Award for coverage of issues of national significance.

President-elect Barack Obama turned his attention Wednesday to selecting Cabinet officers to help deliver on his campaign pledges to right a faltering economy and ease public concern about two drawn-out wars, offering a key job in his administration to Illinois Rep. Rahm Emanuel.
Democratic officials say Mr. Emanuel, a former aide in the Clinton White House, has been offered the job chief of staff in the Obama administration, according to the Associated Press. Elected in 2003, he is the fourth-highest ranking Democrat in the House and chairs the Democratic House caucus.
Like Mr. Obama, Mr. Emanuel is known for his knack in raising campaign money. He's the former chairman of the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee, the fundraising arm for House Democrats. The group poured tens of millions of dollars into House races nationwide, outspent Republicans and helped Democrats pick up more than a dozen seats Tuesday.
The campaign announced John Podesta, chief of staff to former President Bill Clinton, longtime Obama friend Valerie Jarrett and aide Pete Rouse will oversee Mr. Obama's transition team, which is being set up through a newly created nonprofit entity called the Obama-Biden Transition Project.
The chief executive of a Chicago real estate management company, Ms. Jarrett could be in the running to head the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Affairs. And Lawrence Summers, former Treasury Secretary under President Clinton, is among the names reportedly considered to lead the Treasury.
The campaign also announced Wednesday afternoon that a 12-person board, including former Clinton Commerce Secretary William Daley and Arizona Gov. Janet Napolitano, will advise the transition team. Other advisers on the panel include Carol Browner, who headed the Environmental Protection Agency in the Clinton White House.
Across the halls of government, the reality of an orderly transition sunk in Wednesday morning. CIA Director Michael Hayden greeted his own troops with an e-mail preparing them for the job of serving two masters for the next few months: President Bush's team and the transitional government of President-elect Barack Obama.
"Presidential elections are a centerpiece of our democracy," Mr. Hayden wrote in his e-mail to staff. "Now that the American people have had their say, their federal government assumes an additional responsibility. Beyond all the tasks in place on November 4th, the public expects us to do what we can to ensure a smooth, effective transition to a new administration. Our Agency would have it no other way."
Mr. Hayden said the Agency's "outreach to the President-elect" included two CIA officials who would give Mr. Obama his daily intelligence briefings. The CIA Director also had a candid message for intelligence officers wondering about the security of their jobs in an Obama administration.
President Bush also pledged a smooth transition into the next administration over the next 11 weeks.
Mr. Bush told reporters in the Rose Garden yesterday of a "warm" conversation with Mr. Obama Tuesday night, "I told the president-elect he can count on complete cooperation from my administration as he makes the transition to the White House."
Mr. Obama's victory reshaped the electoral map on the strength of historic turnout among both enthusiastic young and minority voters. And his landslide victory ended a two-decade era of politics dominated by the Bush and Clinton families.
The president said the election of a black man to the nation's highest office "showed a watching world the vitality of our democracy and the strides we have made toward a more perfect union."
Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, before leaving for the Middle East Wednesday, called Obama "inspirational" and said that as an African American, "I am especially proud because this is a country that's been through a long journey in terms of overcoming wounds and making race not the factor in our lives. That work is not done, but yesterday was obviously an extraordinary step forward."

Dimly lit. Multi room. Somewhat cozy. Tends to be a more crowded, mid 20's crowd. Not a bad scene for a night out.
Dimly lit. Multi room. Somewhat cozy. Tends to be a more crowded, mid 20's crowd. Not a bad scene for a night out.
A Hell's Kitchen favorite. Local vibe. Chill atmosphere. Strong drinks. Great for small groups and casual, change-of-pace dates. The bartender Mike is fantastic.
One of the best bars in Hell's Kitchen. Lively atmosphere. Fantastic bartenders. Great for work happy hours, casual dates & fun nights out in general. Semi-secret rooftop bar, as well.
Large beer selection. Friendly, reliable staff. Great "end of the night" spot for a beer or two.
Incredibly inept & rude customer service. Nearly walked out in frustration.
The Fat Elvis was arguably the best breakfast I've ever eaten (waffles, peanut butter butter, bananas and bacon maple syrup)
Take in the views. Lounge in the kiddie pool. Drink beer. Get tan.
The waitress is the worst. She once said "that's it?" when we left her a 30% tip on an $8 dollar bill.
Smack a shuttlecock
Slick. Clean. Great beats. Attractive & friendly bartenders. Flaccid celery.
Great place to watch football...tv's at every table. Never packed.
If u don't like beats...don't come here
Turns into a homeless shelter after midnight...classy and reassuring
Huge portions. Sausage is awesome. The deluxe pancake breakfast is a beast
Has the coldest water fountains in the city

There are the men and women who pioneered, set long-standing records, and made their mark on mountain running, like six-time World Mountain Running Champion Jonathan Wyatt in New Zealand, and Italy's Marco De Gasperi. The never-tire runners and candleholders for the sport, Nancy Hobbs and Dave Dunham. The mountain goat-like legends, like Arlene Pieper, who became the first woman to finish a marathon at the Pikes Peak Marathon in 1959, and Gordy Ainsleigh, who gave birth to ultrarunning when he decided to run the Western States 100-mile course instead of riding a horse. True heroes, all.
But here's a look at who's at the forefront of mountain running today, and who's toeing the starting lines and charging up and down peaks to impressive victories worldwide.

Press Release |
Red Hat Delivers Grant To Carnegie Mellon University's School of Computer Science
* Reuters is not responsible for the content in this press release.
Partnership Creates Open Source Computer Laboratory CHICAGO--(Business Wire)-- Red Hat, Inc. (NYSE:RHT), the world's leading provider of open source solutions, today announced that it has gifted a grant to Carnegie Mellon University`s School of Computer Science (SCS) to create a state-of-the-art, open source computer laboratory. The laboratory, which will be officially dedicated later this year, will be available to all students, faculty and staff to promote the development and use of free and open source software. "The School of Computer Science at Carnegie Mellon is one of the foremost computer science institutions in the world and Red Hat is proud to partner with them in the creation of an open source computer lab," said Michael Cunningham, executive vice president at Red Hat. "The need for an open source software lab came from an overwhelming demand from students and faculty and Red Hat's involvement is a natural extension of our company's historical involvement in the education arena." The computer lab has 60 workstations installed with Fedora and Red Hat Enterprise Linux, will be open 24 hours, seven days a week and is housed in the School for Computer Science's newly constructed Gates Center for Computer Science. "We couldn't be happier about our partnership with Red Hat and we are thankful for their generous contribution that will make the computer lab a reality," said Greg Kesden, SCS director of undergraduate laboratories. "We are dedicated to giving students full exposure to the complete spectrum of modern computer science development practices and we wanted to ensure that open source methodologies had a central presence in both our curriculum and in our new facility." Previously, the School for Computer Science had a small Linux Lab which held 15 machines. The demand on the lab had outstripped its capacity, oftentimes with four students sharing each workstation. Representatives from the Fedora Project, a Red Hat-sponsored and community-supported open source collaboration project, met with SCS faculty and staff during Red Hat's annual University Tour and identified the demand for a gathering space dedicated to open source software.

lightfastnessIn photo printing it is a term used to describe the durability of printed digital photos and how well they stand up to exposure to light. Sunlight and other artificial lighting can cause a reaction on ink pigments and can cause the color to fade or change over time with exposure. In printing, when an ink is called lightfast, it means the manufacturer states it has a strong light-fade resistance.
Compare with gasfastness, the durability of a print when exposed to elements other than light.

Dr.Woods is amazing... She has amazing bedside manners and made me feel instantly comfortable. I went to her for a consult on veneers as I had cracks and chips on me front teeth. Her shots are painless and her work is beautiful. I get complements on my smile daily. Highly recommend Dr.Woods if you're looking to get a beautiful smile

Paige Woods provided me options for the work to be performed to repair my teeth. She provided me information that helped me assess the risk for each procedure. I have trouble breathing though my nose; while Paige performed the procedure to repair my teeth she made sure I was able to breathe thru my mouth. There was no pain during the procedure; some of work Paige performed was the extraction of a tooth and repair to two other molars. I recommend Paige Woods to any individual that previously had a bad experience at the dentist, or fears going to the dentist, she will make you at easy, provide a painless procedure, and take good care of your teeth.

Free Press Journal: Shamatha, or mindfulness, is how we make this mind more stable, more useful. The word "shamatha" in Sanskrit means "peacefully abiding". Peacefully abiding describes the mind as it naturally is. The word "peace" tells the whole story. The human mind is by nature joyous, calm and very clear. In shamatha meditation we aren't creating a peaceful state—we're letting our mind be as it is to begin with. This doesn't mean that we're peacefully ignoring things. It means that the mind is able to be with itself without constantly leaving.
In meditation we learn how to calmly abide: we learn how …

Meditation MP3 – The Heart's Wisdom: Development of Compassion Everyone messes up. Me, you, the neighbors, Mother Teresa, Mahatma Gandhi, King David, the Buddha, everybody.
It's important to acknowledge mistakes, feel appropriate remorse, and learn from them so they don't happen again. But most people keep beating themselves up way past the point of usefulness: they're unfairly self-critical.
Inside the mind are many sub-personalities. For example, one part of me might set the alarm clock for 6 am to get up and exercise . . . and then when it goes off, another part of me could grumble: "Who set the darn clock?" More broadly, there is a kind of inner critic and inner protector … Read more »
Meditation MP3 – Guided Meditations for Calmness, Awareness, and Love (complete album) Reetu Gupta, Huffington Post: This is a question that is posed to me quite regularly, and I can see the skepticism in people's eyes — the fear of meditation, and the preconceived notions that the only people that meditate are/were Buddha and Mahatma Gandhi. However, I am also regularly asked, "Reetu, why do you always seem at peace? Why do you seem like you are happy from the inside? How are you so centered? So positive?" Well, this is because I meditate.

Harold Mandel, Examiner.com: The prolonged Syrian civil war with recent allegations of gas assaults on citizens by Assad and threats of retaliatory bombings by the United States has shaken up the world. It is therefore not surprising that His Holiness the Dalai has joined the search for a lasting peace
in Syria. The Tibet Sun reported on Sept. 21, 2013, "Dalai Lama calls for dialogue on Syria."
The Dalai Lama has called for peace, democracy and dialogue on Syria. In comments to reporters the Dalai Lama has said it was time for a younger generation to stop fighting the wars of the past…
"Peace" can sound merely sentimental or clichéd ("visualize whirled peas"). But deep down, it's what most of us long for. Consider the proverb: The highest happiness is peace.
Not a peace inside that ignores pain in oneself or others, or is acquired by shutting down. This is a durable peace, a peace you can come home to even if it's been covered over by fear, frustration, or heartache.
When you're at peace – when you are engaged with life while also feeling relatively relaxed, calm, and safe – you are protected from stress, your immune system grows stronger, and you become more resilient. Your outlook brightens and you see more opportunities. In relationships, feeling at … Read more »
The Buddha was a man on a mission, and very single-minded. He said over and over again that his only interest was in addressing suffering:
Both formerly and now, it is only dukkha that I describe, and the cessation of dukkha.
This word "dukkha" is often rendered as "suffering." I have no real problem with that translation. It's accurate. But many people have problems with the word "suffering." As a friend and I were discussing just the other night, many people don't recognize the suffering they experience as suffering, and so they don't think that dukkha applies to them. Often people think of suffering as actual physical pain, or severe deprivation such as starvation, homelessness, … Read more »
This meditation is a recording of a Hangout I did on Google+ with members of Wildmind's community. It's an upekkha bhavana meditation, which is not really the "cultivation of equanimity" at all — or at least so I believe. To me, upekkhā is not equanimity. It doesn't even mean equanimity in its etymological root, but something more like "closely watching." Upekkhā is when we wish that beings attain the deep peace of awakening through accepting impermanence, or the arising and passing of things, or that everything changes (the exact words don't matter much).
We are of course seeking the peace of awakening ourselves, and so at the beginning of this sit I encourage you to … Read more »
In learning to experience deep peace in the face of impermanence, we need to consider not just our inner experience, as I did yesterday, but our very lives, and the lives of those around us. Life is short; we all face loss.
These things aren't really different from what I was discussing yesterday, since it's our inner feelings about changes in the world that we largely have to deal with, but the same situations can be looked at from different perspectives. When we're actually experiencing loss, instability, and change, we can work on accepting the the feelings that arise with equanimity. But we can also prepare ourselves philosophically for painful changes that may happen in … Read more »

RCH nursing services recommend that you regularly update your own CPD record sheet and have provided a template that you can use as part of your own professional practice portfolio.
The Dame Elisabeth Murdoch
Nursing Development Scholarship offers a unique career development opportunity
for an outstanding RCH nurse while helping achieve the RCH vision of being a
"Great Children's Hospital". The annual scholarship of $50,000 funds
a period of time spent abroad exploring practice and may also include an
appropriate study program. The recipient returns to the RCH to share the
knowledge and experience with RCH colleagues and enhance the delivery of
nursing care to patients and families.
Dame Elisabeth Murdoch AC DBE,
generously gave her name in perpetuity in support of this scholarship and the
advancement of nursing at RCH. Dame Elisabeth was associated with the RCH for
80 years and in that time demonstrated her commitment and dedication to the
care, health and well being of the children of Victoria and beyond. The funding
for the scholarship is kindly provided by the fundraising efforts of the RCH
For all queries please contact email@example.com.
This scholarship is an annual
endowment provided by the RCH League of Former Trainees and Associates (LOFT)
to support the integration of research processes into nursing practice at RCH
to support improved outcomes for patients and families. Elizabeth Fearon
was a trainee of the hospital and a Ward Sister in Pelham Street, Carlton. On
transfer of the hospital to Parkville, Elizabeth initiated the Day Surgery Unit
and continued her role as a teacher and mentor. Elizabeth was greatly respected
not only for her kindness, but her wisdom and learning. This scholarship is
given in her name as an appropriate memorial to her legacy.
The sum of $5000 will be awarded
to a current nursing employee to support paediatric research within a higher
degree OR for research within a clinical position or clinical unit to improve
patient outcomes. To be eligible candidates must be currently employed at
the Royal Children's Hospital as a Registered or Enrolled Nurse, have developed
a project plan reflecting a research question from clinical practice, and have
support from all relevant managers for the project (i.e. NUM, Director of
Clinical Operations).

The Nursing and Midwifery Board are responsible for the regulation of nurses and midwives in Australia and as such set the standard by which performance is assessed in order for registration to be obtained in Australia. The four scopes of practice are available as individual documents on theNursing and Midwifery Board's guideline page.
The Nursing Competency & Capability Workbook provides a comprehensive overview of the RCH Nursing Competency & Capability Framework and includes many of the resources and tools to support nurses in the attainment and demonstration of competence.
Chapter 1 - Introduction
Chapter 1 introduces the RCH Nursing Competency & Capability Framework, the Nursing Pathway and provides an overview of key clinical areas and nursing positions at The RCH.
Chapter 2 - Generic Competencies
Chapter 2 contains competencies for the use of all nurses working in direct patient care, regardless of area of specialty. By clearly setting expectation's for the standards of care at the RCH, the use and completion of these competencies assist in guiding safe neonatal, child and adolescent nursing practice.
Chapter 3 - Specialty Competencies
Chapter 3 contains competency assessment forms for specialty practice. It builds on the competencies contained in Chapter 2 by making explicit the expectation's of nurses working in designated areas. In addition to being available as a chapter for a designated area, specialty competency assessment forms are available individually. As nurses move to a new specialty they are able to add a new Chapter 3 to their workbook. Should a particular need be identified in a designated area, an individual assessment form from another specialty may be added.
Appendix 1 - Unit orientation
Appendix 1 provides orientation information for key clinical areas. Each clinical area has its own Appendix 1 to guide and support new nursing staff.
Appendix 2 is an index of ALL specialty competencies, including which designated areas the competencies are relevant for.
* Nursing Competency renamed March 2015 to Nursing Competency & Capability

We enjoyed our air conditioned room during a very hot couple of days. We slept extremely well on a wonderful mattress and enjoyed relaxing and reading while inside. We did not watch much TV but it was there if we wanted it. The gourmet breakfasts were delicious and well presented on the cozy porch. Our hosts were warm and friendly and so is the beautiful Victorian house.

We had an amazing time at the Dickey House. The food was great, the room was perfect, and the people were so nice. We had a wonderful time during our stay and are looking forward to going back soon.

The ONLY disadvantage of staying in this B&B is the nearby presence of the BNSF trains which are only a few feet from this beautiful mansion. With loud train whistles and 120-car, 80 mph trains going by nearly hourly, this may not be the best place to get a good night's sleep if one has to "arise and shine" the next morning!

What a beautiful venue. We were in town for an Archery Hall of Fame banquet and the Dickey House was a perfect compliment to the weekend. The accommodations were fantastic and the breakfast was out of this world every morning.

My husband and I celebrated our 10th anniversary at The Dickey House. The hosts were welcoming and friendly. Our room (the Prairie Suite) was perfect! Secluded, but close to the main house. It had everything we needed. We loved the tight-knit community of Marshfield, and we loved that the owners of The Dickey House were very involved with their community.

text: NY SAFE Act Memorandum Of Misunderstanding By Dave Lucas • Jul 13, 2015 Karen DeWitt A "Memorandum of Understanding" between the Cuomo Administration and New York state Senate Republicans suspending a statewide ammunition registry program has opened a political can of worms, causing a commotion at the Capitol. One provision of the New York Secure Ammunition and Firearms Enforcement Act of 2013, commonly known as the SAFE Act, called for an ammunition database to be rolled out in January 2014. Cost and the difficulty of implementation became obstacles apparently too difficult to sidestep. NY Senate Tweaks SAFE Act By Dave Lucas • Jun 9, 2015 wikipedia commons Empire State leaders have approved legislation that makes changes to the SAFE Act. The state Senate has voted 35-26 to tweak the landmark gun control law passed in the wake of the 2012 Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting in Newtown, Connecticut. The Senate passed changes yesterday that would allow a family member to inherit certain types of semi-automatic firearms when their owner dies and make pistol permit applications exempt from open records laws. (c) 2015 AP Dave Gilson Probes "NRA's Murder Mystery" By Ian Pickus • Sep 8, 2014 Listen Listening... / 14:15 As America has suffered through mass shooting after mass shooting, it often seems there is an unbridgeable chasm between activists calling for reforms and gun rights purists who have worked to redefine the meaning of the Second Amendment through the courts and exercise outsize influence on legislatures. Gun Control Groups Call For NY Firearm Storage Law By Dave Lucas • Apr 29, 2014 kcdsTM/Flickr Buoyed by last year's passage of tougher gun laws, New Yorkers Against Gun Violence is urging New York lawmakers to go further by requiring firearm owners to securely store their weapons. Tuesday the group called on lawmakers to pass legislation mandating that guns be stored in a safe or equipped with a gun lock, along with another proposal that would require all semi-automatic handguns sold in the state to be equipped with a device that stamps a unique code into a shell casing each time the gun is fired, making it easier for authorities to track guns used in shootings.

Newspaper Chain Considers, Rejects Building Gun-owner Database By Dave Lucas • Jan 26, 2014 Wikimedia Commons The publisher of a major newspaper chain has thrown cold water on a report that it was considering building state-by-state databases of people who have the right to carry concealed firearms. Saratoga County Officials Seeking Distance From Aspects Of SAFE Act By Lucas Willard • Jan 17, 2014 Saratoga County Local leaders in Saratoga County are taking steps to distance the county from provisions under New York's SAFE Act, one year after its enactment. This week, Saratoga County Board of Supervisors' Law and Finance committee advanced a measure proposed by County Clerk Craig Hayner and Sheriff Michael Zurlo to remove the Saratoga County seal from state-issued letters to county residents requesting pistol permit renewals. Under the SAFE Act, in March, the state will be sending out 3,000 recertification letters to permit holders in Saratoga County.

I have decided to update everything to say that I probably won't be updating my stories anytime soon. I barely come on here as it is because its never working or updated and none of the stories I follow have updated their stories in 9 months. Life has gotten really bad this year and I just spend all my time at work so I don't have to be at home. I've lost all interest in writing for this site and myself, it became like another homework assignment that I would push off. I'll leave all my stories up and will update them whenever, but it won't be once a month like it started out to be. It will be whenever I feel like writing for 3 hours straight one the few days off I get. I feel bad because a lot of you have spent your time reading my stories and giving me input on it, I just can't bring myself to write anymore not even for myself. I am truly sorry that I wasted everyone's time with not finishing my stories which I said I wouldn't do, but the last year has gotten crazy and unsafe for me and my brother. If you want to message or review your anger and disappointment, I welcome it because I deserve it.
Go to this think to see one of the rape threats I have gotten from a member of the Critics United.
What to do when you are getting attacked by troll.
* When I say being attacked, I don't mean when someone says
"This story needs to have the grammar improved and sentence structure fixed." This is not an attack.
An attack is "This story is shit and you need to stop writing now" then writes a 10 paragraph review about it or leaves something sexual.
There's nothing wrong with a bad review that someone might be trying to help you with.*
2 Try to delete all their messages and reviews that they sent you. If you can't delete their review, take the chance and just delete the story and re post it.
3 Take a break from this site if you still feel angry and upset about the attack. Try not to take it personal because they do this to EVERYONE. If you can't help, but take it personal then just step back, after a day of calming down you'll move on to your stories which is what this site use to be about.
4 You can try to report them and their messages but this site won't do anything about it. If you think you have a chance, then go for it, you might have better luck then other people but don't expect too much out of it.
If you do report them, report to Zach, he will actually do his job and have their accounts deleted. He helped me get rid of one of the people above who were threatening me with rape.

The official source of product insight from the Visual Studio Engineering Team
Less than a year ago, I gave you a quick overview of the many investments we made to debugging and profiling in Visual Studio 2013 RTM and got some great feedback from you about what we'd done. Now, with Visual Studio 2013 Update 2 RC available for download, I wanted to run you through the enhancements we have made since last summer. We've done a lot, so this summary post mostly links to other posts.
I wanted to talk about two of the larger efforts we've made first: the Performance and Diagnostics hub (from where you can run tools such as the HTML UI Responsiveness tool, XAML UI Responsiveness tool, and Energy Consumption tool) and the ability to analyze .NET memory dumps.
With the Performance and Diagnostics hub, you now have the capability to run more than one tool at a time and look at the results in a combined view, so that you can cross-correlate activity from one tool with activity from another (e.g. "I can see that while my CPU was doing X, my UI was doing Y"). We've also introduced a new CPU Usage tool, for seeing where your .NET, C++, and JavaScript functions are using the CPU. And finally, we've added a Memory Usage tool for your .NET and C++ code to complement the JavaScript Memory tool we shipped previously.
Another large investment for VS2013 was the .NET memory dump tool, which includes the capability to inspect values of objects from the dump file. You can use this feature to investigate memory leaks with your Azure Web Site (new with Update 2 is the diffing capability for .diagsession files).
There are several other notable features, two of which I'll call out:
We've also invested to add support for the Windows Phone 8.1 platform, bringing feature parity to diagnosing issues with your XAML and JavaScript apps on the phone just as you can for Windows Store app development today. There are a lot of posts we've made on this topic:
Finally, for those of you trying the .NET Native Preview, you will want to also read about our brand new Debugging support for .NET Native apps.
As always, your feedback and questions on diagnostics are welcome in the MSDN Diagnostics forum.

As South Africans prayed for the anti-apartheid hero who defeated decades of racist white minority rule to became the country's first black president, President Jacob Zuma late on June 26 abruptly cancelled a trip to Mozambique after he visited the hospital where Mandela is critically ill. It is the first time Zuma has scrapped a public engagement since Mandela was hospitalized nearly three weeks ago.

local branch management, is horrible. Most of the management never worked in the field. Never turned a wrench. They have no technical abailty . They cannot relate to the everyday tasks of a tech.They sit behind a desk and dont relate to the outside world, and what it takes to get a job done. Dispatch of work is from another state, through nextel's. Dispatch personel are horrible, again $8.00 an hr people with no techncal ability off the street answering phones. It is a nightmare to get things done sometimes...Meetings to schedule the next meeting ....You are a name and a number here.......
Advice to Management
needs to not hire from the outside, needs to promote from within. Branches needs a service manager between techs and management.....Needs more technical people who understand the business in management..
