Formal nursing terminology systems: a means to an end

In response to the need to support diverse and complex information requirements, nursing has developed a number of different terminology systems. The two main kinds of systems that have emerged are enumerative systems and combinatorial systems, although some systems have characteristics of both approaches. Differences in the structure and content of terminology systems, while useful at a local level, prevent effective wider communication, information sharing, integration of record systems, and comparison of nursing elements of healthcare information at a more global level. Formal nursing terminology systems present an alternative approach. This paper describes a number of recent initiatives and explains how these emerging approaches may help to augment existing nursing terminology systems and overcome their limitations through mediation. The development of formal nursing terminology systems is not an end in itself and there remains a great deal of work to be done before success can be claimed. This paper presents an overview of the key issues outstanding and provides recommendations for a way forward.

Today is the 50th anniversary of the Older Americans Act, the landmark federal legislation signed into law by President Johnson in 1965.
That year, a local gathering of gerontologists, social workers, academicians, regional planners, health and economic specialists, faith-based groups, governmental agencies and non-profit social service groups came together to discuss the needs of older adults in our community.
Their vision led to the start of your council on aging. Established in 1967, Pima Council on Aging opened its doors in a tiny office downtown, and in 1973, the Pima Association of Governments designated PCOA as the Area Agency on Aging. PCOA was the first agency on aging in the state and also served as a model for the national AAA network.
The Older Americans Act is the funding centerpiece for what has grown into community-based services specifically for older adults and their family caregivers: meals, transportation, housing and home–based care.
Over the past decades, other important programs and services have come onboard: health promotion classes, health insurance and benefits assistance, family caregiver services and support groups, long-term care planning, personal budgeting assistance, the long-term care ombudsmen and the community services system for home — and community services.
The bottom line is that Pima Council on Aging exists because of the Older Americans Act.
This year also marks the 50th anniversary of two of the most important programs for older adults — Medicare and Medicaid (AHCCCS in Arizona) — and also marks the 80th anniversary of Social Security.
Every 10 years, under the auspices of the White House Conference on Aging, the nation pauses to reflect on its older Americans. The 2015 White House Conference on Aging was a one-day virtual conference when advocates and policy makers looked at the future of aging services.
The White House forum is grounded by a series of four briefs, incorporating the findings of the five regional "Listening Sessions": Healthy aging, long-term services and supports, elder justice and retirement security.
The outcomes of the conference will be a renewal of vision and on-the-ground action by PCOA and the national network of Area Agencies on Aging and allied groups. After all, everyone will experience aging, and while the demand for services grows, the financial resources are decreasing. There will be challenges but also many new opportunities for adults of all ages to be more engaged and definitely foster intergenerational conversations.
It's time to think outside the proverbial box about aging. The fact is aging is everyone's issue at some point in time and all adults, spanning Millennials and Gen Xers, the millions of Baby Boomers born between 1946 and 1964 who are turning 65 every day, and grand elders of the Greatest Generation, can work together.
Today's young adults will be tomorrow's influencers; they will affect the way we age in our society. Let's promote community conversations with an eye on uniting the generations because we believe our community can benefit by spanning generations.
After all, the PCOA mission is to promote dignity and respect for aging, and advocate for independence in the lives of older adults and their families, now and for generations to come.
W. Mark Clark is president and CEO of the Pima Council on Aging. Contact PCOA at firstname.lastname@example.com

Kickboxer is a 1989 American martial arts film produced and directed by Mark DiSalle, and also co-directed by David Worth, and starring Jean-Claude Van Damme and former world kickboxing champion Dennis Alexio. The film was released in the United States on September 8, 1989. The film is considered to be a cult classic and one of the definitive works in Van Damme's movie career as a martial artist. It was so successful that it spawned several sequels.
Kurt Sloane (Jean-Claude Van Damme) is the cornerman for his brother Eric (Dennis Alexio), an American kickboxing champion. Kurt and Eric travel to Bangkok to challenge Tong Po (Michel Qissi), Thailand's undefeated champion. After a brutal first round, Kurt realizes that they are outmatched by Tong Po and tries to convince his brother to stop the fight. Unwilling to give up, Eric returns for the second round and continues to take a vicious beating, finally prompting Kurt to throw in the towel. Tong Po ignores him and continues the assault, which ultimately leaves Eric paralyzed from the waist down. Eric is then carried outside and left on the street without any help, until Winston Taylor (Haskell Anderson), a retired US Army special forces member, intervenes and agrees to take the brothers to the hospital. After several hours of surgery, the doctor informs Kurt that Eric will never walk again.
Furious, Kurt vows to avenge his brother but is warned by Taylor that the only way to fight Tong Po is in the ring, as going after him outside the ring will result in reprisals against Americans by Thailand citizens because Tong Po is a national hero. Though reluctant at first, Taylor eventually tells him about Xian Chow (Dennis Chan), a locally famous trainer living in a remote area of Thailand. Upon locating Xian, Kurt is able to convince him to train him in the art of Muay Thai ("Thai boxing"). Xian trains Kurt using many primitive methods and focusing on speed, agility, and the ability to protect himself through balance and timely breathing. While training, Kurt attempts to foil the operations of a group of Thai mobsters led by Freddy Li, who continuously steal money from the store of Xian's niece, Mylee (Rochelle Ashana)and threaten her. After Kurt makes short work of the thugs in a bar fight with Freddy Li looking on, Xian is able to convince Freddy Li arrange a match between Kurt and Tong Po. It is determined that they will fight in the "ancient way", in which both fighters wrap their hands in hemp rope, which is then coated in resin and dipped in broken glass to make them deadly weapons.
Freddy Li arranges to have the fight fixed, and borrows $1 million from the crime syndicate's boss to bet on Tong Po. In the days leading up to the match, Mylee is beaten and raped (thus losing her virginity) by Tong Po while Eric is kidnapped by Freddy Li's henchmen for the purpose of blackmailing Kurt into losing the fight. To save his brother's life, Kurt is instructed by Freddy Li to go the distance with Tong Po before losing the match. He endures a torturous beating, but fortunately, Xian and Taylor are able to locate and rescue Eric before the fight concludes. With his brother free from danger, Kurt manages to find a second wind and defeat Tong Po in a vicious fashion. For good measure, he also kicks Freddy Li.

As a backdrop for some of the training scenes, Kurt Sloane (Van Damme) trains near the temples in Wat Phra Si Sanphet and Wat Ratchaburana, part of the ruins of Ayutthaya city in Thailand. Principal photography lasted 56 days on location in Bangkok, Thailand, between June 28 and August 23, 1988.
A soundtrack containing songs from the movie was released featuring songs from soundtrack specialist Stan Bush. The score for the movie was composed by Paul Hertzog. The full score was remastered and released in 2006 by Perseverance Records in limited quantity.

On July 2, 2014, an expanded version of the 2006 album was released by Perseverance Records. This album contained the remastered original 22 tracks plus 9 vocal performances that previously had only been available in Germany.[citation needed]
Box office and reception[edit]
Kickboxer is considered a box office success, as it grossed $14,697,005 in the domestic box office.[3] Canon deliberately released it on the traditionally slow weekend after Labor Day when no studio releases, and thus limited competition; it opened on 973 screens and grossed $4.1 million, making it the third most popular movie in the country.[4] A few years later its gross was estimated at $50 million.[5]
Chris Willman of the Los Angeles Times called the film "egregiously dull" and a contender for one of "the dumbest action pictures of the year", citing its "jarring shifts in tone, insurmountable plot implausibilities, rampant racial stereotyping, superfluous nudity and inhuman amounts of comically exaggerated violence". Willman also questioned the manner in which characters seem to recover from serious injuries and major trauma.[6]
Chris Hicks of the Deseret News criticized the film as a ripoff of The Karate Kid, with added elements from other films such as Rocky and Rambo. In addition to stating that the ending was predictable, Hicks also dismissed Van Damme as "little more than a low-budget Arnold Schwarzenegger Wannabee" whose attempts at acting were in vain.[7]
There is currently no consensus on the review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes, though it has a 65% "fresh score" generated by 50,913 users.[8]
Home media[edit]
On June 8, 1999, DVD was released by HBO Home Video at the United States in Region 1. On 6 January 2003, DVD was released by Prism Leisure Corporation at the United Kingdom in Region 2.
The film spawned several sequels. Despite Van Damme not returning, the film series between parts two and four continues the ongoing battles between the Sloan family - expanded to include third brother David Sloan, essayed by Sasha Mitchell - and Tong Po. The fifth entry is related in name only.
- Kickboxer 2: The Road Back
- Kickboxer 3: The Art of War
- Kickboxer 4: The Aggressor
- Kickboxer 5: The Redemption

More than eight years ago we sponsored our first child through Compassion International.
We picked Bereket, a 5 year old boy in Ethiopia.
We chose him because we had a new niece from the country and because our son wanted a brother.
It was a big decision for our little family. And it turned out to be the best one.
We spent most of our time inwardly-focused, trying to create a great childhood for our kids, a happy home and we chased the American Dream like it was our job. So, sponsoring Bereket, sending money every month for his care and school fees, cracked open the door to compassion for others that would soon overwhelm us.
In so many ways, this was our first yes.
It led to my blogging trip in 2010 with Compassion that led to sponsoring more kids that led to meeting Maureen which led to starting Mercy House.
Yesterday, my daughter and I walked the jagged, dirty path that led to Bereket's mud-walled home. He's nearly 13 now, just like my son. I knew when we made our travel plans to visit some Fair Trade Friday partners is bordering Ethiopia, we would have to meet him.
His mother ran to meet us and threw her arms around my neck. Her family stood close by taking it in.
"I knew you would come some day. God told me," Two minutes in and I was already speechless.
We sat in their tidy home and the proudly pulled out every letter and picture we've sent for the past 8 years. They showed us what they'd bought with the annual family gifts we sent. Bereket's mother never stopped smiling and his dad listened intently. As I looked at this beautiful family, I felt like I was home. Only God.
Bereket had many questions about my son while we enjoyed the traditional coffee ceremony. The boys have shared letters for years now. They are the same age, they both love math, football and want to be engineers when they grow up. We gave him a new soccer ball and Legos. Bereket's family has lived in their home for 15 years and the joy of knowing Jesus was palpable. I have never seen a more affection or tender looks passed between a mother and father and their children.
(Right after I took this photo of my sponsored child's mother, I realized I was standing in a mound of black ants. I jumped away and shook my shoes off. But about 3 minutes later, I could feel them under my jeans up and down my legs. I literally had ants in my pants.)
After our visit in their home, my daughter and I took them to their first restaurant. It was such a treat.
The family ordered traditional Ethiopian food (raw oxen and injera). Well, everyone except Bereket. He ordered this:
He really might be my son's brother.
They asked many questions about Mercy House and I showed them pictures of the beautiful girls we are trying to help. They promised to pray for us.
As we said our goodbye's, we took turns speaking from our hearts to each other. (Yes, I cried). They asked me to bring the rest of my family back to their home and they offered the most gracious thank you I've ever heard.
As we drove away, my 15 year old girl burst into tears.
We will hold this day in our hearts forever.
This first yes has led to countless others. Including meeting Kalkadon, our newest sponsored child through Caring for Korah (a Fair Trade Friday partner and a ministry very close to our hearts) this week. She pointed out the chairs and double bed, pillows and blankets filling her 8×8 home that our small family gift paid had purchased.
Sometimes we wonder if the sacrifice is needed. Or appreciated.
We question our decision and our ability.
We try to squeeze a little more money out of our budget to share with others.
And sometimes we wonder if our small yes even matters.
God told me it does.

Squats for train tickets
[1]Need a train ticket but don't have any cash on you? Just squat for it.
In exchange for knocking out 30 squats, you can score a free subway ticket – worth about a buck – at Russia's Vystavochnaya station, west of Moscow, according to a Wired report.
Why the free fare?
The physical exertion in exchange for a free ride is aimed at getting people active and excited for the 2014 Olympic Games in Sochi, Russia, which begin in February.
For a video of people squatting for tickets, go to wired.com/autopia/2013/11/squats-train-ticket [2]. (The video has no words but has captions in Russian overlaid on the video.)
Woman skydives into moving car
This is one way to travel: start by skydiving and end up in a moving car to get you to the next location.
Traveling between 20 to 40 mph in the air, 28-year-old nurse Katie Hansen from Northern California landed into a moving Mustang convertible as part of an extreme sports event in Norway, according to ThePostGame. The car was traveling at about 40 mph.
Hansen performed the car stunt this past summer, but a video of the stunt made its way to the AviatorShow channel on YouTube in early November.
Check out the video of the incredible stunt on AviatorShow's YouTube channel: youtube.com/user/theav8tqr [3].
First coast-to-coast highway celebrates 100th birthday
[4]The Lincoln Highway, the intercontinental highway that could take motorists from coast to coast, has turned 100 years old.
The highway now is made up of "a patchwork of already existing roads," says Kay Shelton, president of the Lincoln Highway Association and a Northern Illinois University professor told National Public Radio (NPR).
The route was intended to be the straightest possible shot between New York City and San Francisco, Shelton told NPR, but the highway was updated when newer, straighter or smoother legs of the roadway were found.
[5]The idea of the Lincoln Highway came from Carl Fisher, who was also responsible for the Indianapolis Motor Speedway and Miami Beach. The route, comprised of both existing and newly built roads following the most direct route possible, ran from New York to San Francisco, covering about 3,400 miles, according to The Lincoln Highway Association (lincolnhighwayassoc.org [6]).
The Lincoln Highway Association was created in 1913 to promote the road using private and corporate donations.

In a sense, Calgary Flames head coach Bob Hartley returned to his coaching roots with the annual hockey camp he hosts for children at the York City Ice Arena.
Hartley got his start coaching players — ones not much older than the youth at the camp — with a Junior A team in his native Ontario before working his way to the NHL.
This year marks the 18th year Hartley, also a former Hershey Bears head coach, has held the high-intensity camp that bears his name. It's the 11th year that York City has hosted it.
Hartley previously held the camp in Hershey. A group of local hockey dads talked him into checking out the then new York City Ice Arena, which boasts two rinks for training and a community room where campers sleep.
"It's an unbelievable setup to do a sleepover camp," the Stanley Cup winning coach said.
The camp: A combined 460 skaters and goalies are attending the camp, split into two separate weeklong sessions. That includes about 120 Canadians and a few players from Switzerland, where Hartley also coached.
Aiding Hartley in teaching the campers are a couple of his Flames players as well as some former NHL players and current coaches in various leagues.
Matt Walter, 15, of Alexandria, Va., said this is the fourth year he's been to the camp. For him, it's become a tradition.
First timers Carter Smith, 17, of Corning, N.Y., and Logan Baker, 16, of Elmira, N.Y., said they were down to prepare for the high school hockey season.
"It's very intense," Smith said of the daily regimen of on- and off-ice training.
Skate hard: Inside the York City Ice Arena, the sound of a stick smacking a puck echoed throughout the rink. With a quick burst of speed, the puck-receiving skater darted up the ice, lowered his shoulder and sneaked past a defenseman.
In a flash, he fired the puck, which bounced off a goalpost with a loud clang.
As the skater got back in line to do the drill again, another player gave him some playful ribbing about his missed shot.
But the players aren't the only ones who have fun at the camp.
"If I don't have fun, I don't think the kids are having fun," Hartley said.
The banner: For Hartley, the trek to York from Canada is a homecoming of sorts.
Like most times he's in the area, Hartley said, he recently drove over to his old stomping grounds in Hershey to have a look at the banner commemorating the AHL championship Calder Cup he guided the Bears to in 1997.
"I come back because I enjoy the entire community," he said. "I love it. I always love coming back."

NLPC Associate Fellow Paul Chesser was interviewed last night on Cavuto on the Fox Business Network. Paul asserted that electric vehicles like the Chevy Volt have failed in the marketplace, despite massive taxpayer subsidies. Here's a transcript:
It appears that four current members of the United States House of Representatives received loans via the VIP program of Countrywide Financial Corporation. Once again the motives of the former giant mortgage institution have been brought into question. Where they trying to peddle influence with these loans?
Last night on Neil Cavuto's show on Fox News Channel, NLPC Associate Fellow Mark Modica discussed disappointing sales of the Chevy Volt, and GM's apparent goosing of sales figures through fleet sales. Here's a transcript:
Yesterday, former Illinois Governor Rod Blagojevich was sentenced to 14 years in prison for, among other things, attempting to "sell" the US Senate seat that was once held by President Barack Obama. Blagojevich's punishment comes on the heels of the U.S. House Ethics Committee's decision to continue its investigation into Congressman Jesse Jackson's role in the same scheme.
Has Julius Genachowski, the Chairman of the Federal Communications Commission (FCC), met his match in Senator Charles Grassley (R-Iowa)? Genachowski, a buddy of President Obama from Harvard Law School, has brought a culture of wheeling and dealing to the FCC, on whose decisions billions of telecom dollars often ride.
Grassley says that he will hold up two nominations for the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) until the Commission provides documents that he has requested relating to LightSquared, a broadband company owned by the Harbinger Capital hedge fund.
Yesterday, Rush Limbaugh criticized Coca-Cola's polar bear campaign as "idiotic," based on a posting on this website by NLPC Associate Fellow Paul Chesser. Rush's commentary appears below. The sections in bold below were read verbatim from the posting.
The House Ethics Committee may soon conduct a complete investigation of Congresswoman Laura Richardson (D-CA). She has been under investigation for some time now for allegations that her staff undertook political activities while working on government time.
As reported this week by John Bresnahan in Politico, Ethics Committee staff members have been looking into potential Richardson violations since last year. At isssue is whether some of Richardson senior staff pressured subordinates to work on her reelection campaign matters during official time. This is against House rules and federal law.
Accusations of corruption directed against the late Congressman John Murtha (D-PA) look like they were true. Recently released files seem to confirm that the Federal Bureau of Investigation suspected that Murtha schemed to route federal dollars to bogus companies and other operations that would benefit his friends and former employees and ultimately his own campaigns.
Paul Pelosi, husband of House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, will reportedly make millions of dollars from a previously undisclosed real estate venture in Mrs. Pelosi's home state of California. Mr. Pelosi is a real estate developer and an investment banker and entered into this project with the father of the current Ambassador to Hungary, as reported by The Washington Times earlier this week. Mrs. Pelosi helped the ambassador secure her the post.
Today we filed Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests with the Labor Department, its Wage and Hour Division, and the Internal Revenue Service (IRS). We ask for all third-party communications related to this week's signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) between the two agencies and eleven state governments.
The MOU is the basis for a crackdown on employers who allegedly misclassify employees as independent contractors, but the action appears calculated to assist the Laborers International Union of North America (LIUNA) in a campaign directed at the nation's homebuilders.

Good news is I didn't stay in my 10,000 share trade yesterday. Bought at .78, sold at .77 and I can live with the $100 loss.
Bad news is we hit .70 this morning.
Good news is it's a sunny day in Vancouver and I'm turning off the screen and going golfing. There will be lots of good days ahead for AUN. Today is just not one of them.
Don't worry, be happy.

Spider plant (Chlorophytum comosum)
Even if you tend to neglect houseplants, you'll have a hard time killing this resilient plant. With lots of rich foliage and tiny white flowers, the spider plant battles benzene, formaldehyde, carbon monoxide and xylene, a solvent used in the leather, rubber and printing industries. As an added bonus, this plant is also considered a safe houseplant if you have pets in the house. (Find more houseplants that are safe for pets.)

Teaching the youth of today to shape a compassionate tomorrow
On the surface, the San Diego Humane Society and SPCA's Youth Education Programs focus on teaching children about animals and how to interact with them safely and appropriately. These are valuable lessons, but children learn a much greater lesson – the importance of respecting all living things.
Last year more than 22,000 children were impacted by the organizations' Humane Education programs, and saw firsthand the link between how people treat animals and how they treat each other.
This summer, children of all ages have the opportunity to enjoy and learn about animals in a variety of ways:
- Animal Adventure Camp - Kids 5-13 years old spend their school breaks learning about and interacting with adoptable animals. There are week-long sessions during the spring and summer, and one and two-day camps during school holidays. Spring sessions start in April, summer sessions start in June. For registration and information, contact the Education Department at 619-279-5939.
- Birthday Parties – Party-goers come to the San Diego Humane Society for humane education-based games, crafts and at least three experiences with the animal friends of their choice.
- Tots and Tales – This interactive story-time program for toddlers offers stories, crafts, visits with animals and more.
- Scout Programs - Girl Scouts can earn their "Animal Try It Badge," "Pet Care Badge," or the Cadette "Pets Interest Project" in this one-stop program. Other programs address community service needs, and scouts will gain skills necessary to achieve their Bronze, Silver and Gold awards.
- Home-School Programs - Home-school elementary-aged students can join in two different California-Standards based programs that combine innovative lessons and hands-on teaching.
- Outreach - Humane and character lessons are taken directly to the schools four days a week. These lessons meet the California Standards assisting the teachers in meeting their classroom goals, while educating students on proper care for the animals in their homes and our community. Programs are tailored for all age groups, and lessons include Dog Bite Prevention, Responsible Pet Care, and Careers with Animals.

Pressures Demand Immigration Reform
Meyer, Cord, The Washington Times (Washington, DC)
The scale, depth and extent of the current immigration crisis in the United States is partly the result of the impact on American shores of worldwide population trends. In 1950, the world population was estimated at 2.5 billion people, but now the Census Bureau estimates the total human population at 5.8 billion, with little chance of stabilizing before reaching 10 billion.
This steadily expanding pressure on our Atlantic and Pacific coasts and on our Mexican border has had the effect of creating an estimated illegal immigrant population within the United States of 5.6 million people. About half originally arrived with tourist visas or as guest workers and then overstayed their visas to become illegal aliens, dependent on a wide variety of false documentation for job opportunities. One unfortunate result of these pressures is the fact that 25 percent of all American federal convicts are now immigrants -both legal and illegal - and we have increased the number of foreign-born prisoners in federal prisons by 625 percent in the last 15 years.
If we don't succeed in reducing drastically the growth of illegal immigration to this country, the Census Bureau projects for 2050 a total population in the United States of 392 million people. Already overcrowding in Florida and California has given the local population a taste of what may be in store for them in the future.
In fact, a recent Roper poll of 1,978 representative Americans showed that 83 percent want legal immigration much lower than the current 1 million per year. And the majority want immigration held to less than 300,000 per year. An interesting fact is that this poll showed that blacks, Democrats and Republicans were all in the 70 percent range in wanting immigration to be reduced to 300,000 per year, while even 52 percent of Hispanics favor this reduction.
In the face of this clear evidence of wide public support for reducing immigration, the House Agricultural Committee last week approved an amendment to the House Immigration bill that would grant temporary work visas to 250,000 foreign farm workers. The agricultural lobby, which is in favor of this amendment, is forced to concede that 50 percent of the 1.6 million seasonal farm worker are illegal aliens who hold false identification papers. Nonetheless, the agricultural lobby argues in favor of this amendment, while claiming that other proposed reforms in the immigration law threaten the interests of American farmers and ranchers.
Advocates of this guest worker amendment, including the agricultural lobby, argue that under their plan 25 percent of foreign workers' wages would be withheld until they returned home. …

Video: A short dramatization on the flaws of CETA, the trade agreement that Canada has negotiated with the European Union. Brought to you by the St. John's chapter of the Council of Canadians and Citizens Against CETA
CETA is a "next generation" free trade and investment pact that Canada and the EU have been negotiating since May 2009. But it is better understood as a corporate power grab. CETA is a way to further deregulate and privatize the Canadian economy while increasing corporate power and undermining Canadian and European efforts to address the climate crisis.
In September 2014, former Prime Minister Harper, European Commission President José Manuel Barroso and European Council President Herman Van Rompuy signed a joint declaration to "celebrate the end of negotiations of the Canada-EU Trade Agreement."
The announcement of the completion of CETA was also the first time people in Canada and Europe were allowed to see the official text of the agreement. We are now being told that no changes are possible.
If ratified, CETA will unfairly restrict how local governments spend money by banning "buy local" policies, add hundreds of millions of dollars to the price of pharmaceutical drugs in our public health care system, create pressure to increase privatization of local water systems, transit and energy, and much more. The secret negotiating process and the overall corporate agenda behind these next generation deals are an affront to democracy on both sides of the Atlantic.
Citizens in Canada and Europe are left with just one option: reject CETA before it is ratified. Read more.

I applied online. The process took 4+ weeks. I interviewed at McKinsey & Company.
Two interviews for first round, four interviews for second round. Each interview was an hour long - 20 minutes on behavioral and 40 minutes of casing. Behavioral questions are in-depth (e.g., you are asked to give very specific details). The cases are challenging and follow the format of the online practices cases. Best way to succeed is to practice casing using their online materials/videos.
Interview Questions
No negotiation. Salary is comparable (if not identical) to other top consulting firms. I did not feel like I had any power to ask for a higher salary (nor did I feel like I needed one).

I applied through college or university. I interviewed at McKinsey & Company.
One hour with one interviewer, one hour with the next. In total, it was one two-hour interview. Each hour had 30 minutes of fit/experience questions and 30 minutes of a case. Fit/experience questions were fairly straightforward/expected, but the cases were difficult.

I applied through college or university. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at McKinsey & Company in February 2015.
Got an on campus interview by applying online to both the McKinsey website and our campus recruiting website. A week before the interview, McKinsey hosted a case interview workshop, during which BA's gave us tips on the process and split us up into groups for a practice case. This was super helpful, given it was the first case interview I have ever experienced. I also found potential study buddies. The first round interview was on my college campus: one-hour interviews with two Engagement Managers each, 15 minutes devoted to Fit and 45 minutes devoted to the case. My interview was Friday, and on Monday, the recruiter called to let me know I had a second final interview in two weeks. At this point, tons of people from McKinsey e-mailed me to congratulate me in getting a second interview and offered to either grab coffee or review cases with me. My first round interviewer called to give me feedback on how I can improve, which was incredibly helpful. I was very touched and amazed by the support I received from McKinsey at this point. My final interview was on-site at the office I applied for. The night before, all the applicants had dinner with current BA's, which was really fun. Again, the final interview was standard, this time I was interviewed by 2 partners a 1 associate principal. The interviews were from 8-11am, and by 1pm a partner I interviewed with called to tell me I had an offer. That night, all offerees were invited to celebrate. I had a blast interviewing with McKinsey, and very much appreciated the professionalism of the company, the support they gave interviewees, and the enthusiasm the people in the company had for their jobs.

I applied through college or university. I interviewed at McKinsey & Company in February 2015.
I had two rounds of interviews, one on-campus (target school) and one at their headquarters. I had two interviews in the first round, and three interviews in the second round. Each interview lasts about an hour. They all consisted of a PEI, a case, and an opportunity to ask questions. The cases are pretty standard, and heavily driven by the interviewer. I found that the PEI was where the difference was made, especially in the initial rounds. Taking a while to plan out punchy PEI examples was really worth it, since it helped distinguish my application in the minds of my interviewers. However, don't go so far as planning out which interviewer gets which PEI story in advance--each PEI is a little different, and you risk being off-topic if you launch in to a prepared speech as soon as you hear a PEI prompt. You can give the same examples in round 2 that you gave in round 1, but don't use the same example more than once per round. Questions, especially when you're in front of a partner, are really great opportunities to learn about the nuances of the office you're applying for.

I applied through college or university. I interviewed at McKinsey & Company.
I applied through my schools on campus recruiting program. First round interviews consisted of two back to back 1-hour interviews, approx 20 min behavioral and 40 min case for each. The cases were interesting and on a variety of industries-- more difficult than Bain's, but easier than BCG's. They were very much interviewer driven, which made the initial framework less important.

3 first round interviews, 3 final round interviews. A personal question part, and then a case. The level of difficulty is harder in the first round, the final round is usually easier. It really depends on who is interviewing. To prepare, you just have to practice BOTH the personal and the case questions.

Conflict and Cliff-Hangers
Conflict and cliff-hangers
The prehistoric cliff dwellings of the Anasazi Indians were discovered in the southwestern United States around a century ago and have intrigued anthropologists ever since. Some have suggested that drought and other environmental pressures forced the Anasazi up the canyon walls, closer to dwindling water sources, in the late 13th century. But recent discoveries by anthropologist Jonathan Hass of the School of American Research in Santa Fe, N.M., and his co-workers support another scenario: Some mesa and cliff sites were defensive outposts meant to protect one group of Anasazi and their scarce resources from the warfare that once convulsed the region.
Last summer, Haas and his research team uncovered in northeastern Arizona two large pueblos constructed by a group of Anasazi known as the Kayenta. One site was accessible only through a crack in the sandstone wall of a 900-foot butte and contained a 200-room pueblo. Another 30-room dwelling was located in a rock shelter at the top of a 140-foot cliff. In the past four years, says Haas, 15 Kayenta cliff sites have been found. …

I love this bottle!!!! Take it everywhere with me!!!! Love how much I have already saved on money and plastic water bottles I was throwing away!!!!
Even though it's a little hard to get the water to flow without squeezing, I like the product. I have to admit I am a little slack about recycling, which is why I bought two bottles for me and my daughter. The guilt factor has dimished greatly. I really like the email reminder to change the filter even though after the six months, the water still tastes just fine.
I used to buy bottled water. Now I just refill the bottle and it is so easy.
The bottles are awesome but it's so great knowing that I have these around in case something should happen to the water supply like storm damage ect. I've used Brita products for years now and they've not let me down yet.
I bought the two water bottles w/ extra filters bundle, even after reading a lot of the poor reviews. However, I have had no issues what so ever with any kind of leaking with the water bottles. These are convenient to take where ever you go so you can have filtered water at all times. I highly recommend these to anyone and everyone. I will buy more. I wish they offered the cool pink or purple colors, but maybe that will be my next purchase.
I feel like my water is cleaner so I drink more. I wish the filters lasted longer, but maybe the tap water is just real dirty. Overall it's a good product.
Your store has a spot for these on the shelf but I went again and again for two months and the spot was always empty. I should not have to order them when you do not replenish your stock in the store.
These filters are very poor in design. The rings that hold the filter in the bottle break very easily. Then more have to be purchased, and you do not get the full value of the product. Do not buy theses until Brita can get the design straight.
Purchased these Brita filters with a Brita water squeeze bottles. Filters DO NOT FIT the indicated bottle.
Thanks to Brita, I now actually enjoy drinking water. THANKS BRITA!
The water taste great and never like chlorine anymore! Wish it filtered more out but the product works 100% anyway! I love this product! A little much but is the cheapest here at Walmart!
One of the best investments that I could have made: purchasing a Brita Bottle.
This filter allows me to reuse a plastic bottle instead of multiple disposable ones that would become more trash in landfills.
I feel more comfortable drinking water from unfamiliar places.
Water is very natural tasting. I have the large jar. It is a bit heavy for me, but, lots of water for the day.
I love the bottles. I've had them for a couple of years and they work great. However, the problem I have with them is not the bottles but with the replacement filters. A couple years ago the filters were only $7.99 ,now on sale they are $9.82 and are extremely hard to find. Many stores are now only carrying the filters for the hard-sided bottles. The bottles themselves are great.
great to take on a trip when the water quality is in question. It is a little difficult to squeeze the water out, but it works
This is a great filter replacement and good on the go.
like how cheap it is to drink water any where it is aviliable
The bottle is excellent for traveling. It gives you fresh tasting water everytime.
Love that it comes in a two pack and it is still affordable, that's four months of not having to buy water bottles.

1991 Toyota Cressida • 6 cylinder •
A neighbour's car had a defective ignition coil. I happen to own the same model, The mechanic while troubleshooting my neighbour's car used my car's ignition coil (he kept pressing the accelerator of my neighbour's car till the poor thing screeched and howled, repeating this process several times) to see if the problem was elsewhere. When I got back home I noticed that my car's coil had heated up too. Could it be because of the mechanic's having used my car's ignition coil to check my neighbour's car?

An Introduction to the KR Fellowships
In 2012, The Kenyon Review welcomed the first of its KR Fellows. This initiative was inspired by the great tradition of Kenyon Review literary fellowships awarded in the 1950s to writers such as Flannery O'Connor and W.S. Merwin in their formative years. These fellowships represent a significant fulfillment of one aspect of our continuing mission: to recognize, publish, and support extraordinary authors in the early stages of their careers. We believe that after two years, these KR Fellows will be more mature and sophisticated writers, teachers, and editors. As a result, they will be extremely attractive candidates for academic positions as well as for significant publishing opportunities.
General Information
This two-year post-graduate residential fellowship at Kenyon College offers qualified individuals time to develop as writers, teachers, and editors. Fellows will receive a $33,800 stipend, plus health benefits. Fellows are expected to:
- Undertake a significant writing project and attend regular individual meetings with faculty mentors.
- Teach one class per semester in the English Department of Kenyon College, contingent upon departmental needs.
- Assist with creative and editorial projects for The Kenyon Review and KROnline.
- Participate in the cultural life of Kenyon College by regularly attending readings, lectures, presentations, and other campus activities.
Eligible candidates must meet the following requirements:
- An MFA or PhD in creative writing, English literature, or comparative literature completed before September 15, 2015 but no earlier than January 1, 2010.
- Teaching experience in creative writing and/or literature at the undergraduate level.
