JUNEAU — The U.S. Coast Guard terminated the voyages of five commercial fishing vessels for safety violations this weekend, sending five vessels back to Petersburg.
Coast Guard Station Ketchikan boarding teams boarded the commercial fishing vessels and found "a variety of safety violations."
All five vessel crews were required to correct the deficiencies and have a qualified Coast Guard examiner clear the offenses before they can leave port and return to fishing.

President Barack Obama on Wednesday
reiterated his call for Congress to approve the Employment
Non-Discrimination Act (ENDA), which seeks to prohibit workplace
discrimination based on sexual orientation and gender identity.
Following passage last month in the
Senate, House Speaker John Boehner, a Republican from Ohio, said that
he sees "no need" for ENDA when asked whether he would allow
a vote on the legislation.
The president made his remarks while
addressing a Town Hall Education Arts Recreation Campus (THEARC)
audience in Washington, D.C.
"And as we empower our young people
for future success, the third part of this middle-class economics is
empowering our workers," Obama said. "It's time to ensure our
collective bargaining laws function as they're supposed to so unions
have a level playing field to organize for a better deal for workers
and better wages for the middle class. It's time to pass the
Paycheck Fairness Act so that women will have more tools to fight pay
discrimination. It's time to pass the Employment Non-Discrimination
Act so workers can't be fired for who they are or who they love."
Republican House members Charlie Dent,
Chris Gibson, Richard Hanna, Ileana Ros-Lehtinen and Jon Runyan this
week signed on to a bipartisan letter urging Boehner to bring ENDA up
for a vote.

A review of FOX's new series "Houdini & Doyle," premiering May 2, 9/8c.
Her mother's dead, her father's a drunk, and inside of her beats a spirit that is free and true. But this is a working-class neighborhood of an English provincial town in 1951, when a girl such as Lynda was expected to know her place, to apologize by her very manner for having come from humble origins and done little to distinguish herself. Lynda isn't made that way. Boys like to look at Betty Grable's legs in the cinema, so Lynda flashes her knickers on the beach. What's to lose?
"Wish You Were Here" tells the story of an adolescent girl with a spirit that refuses to be crushed, but who has few ways to express herself. Her father absolutely fails to comprehend her. An aunt sees her as a bad girl, a problem girl. The lads of the town see her as a tramp and a possible good time. There is no one in the town to understand her high spirits and good nature, except, perhaps, for the little old lady who plays piano in the tea room and applauds her the day she tells a customer to shove it.
"Wish You Were Here" is a comedy with an angry undertone, a story of a free-spirited girl who holds a grudge against a time when such girls were a threat to society, to the interlocking forces of sexism and convention that conspired to break their spirits. Because the film sometimes doesn't know whether to laugh or cry, it's always interesting: We see a girl whistling on her way to possible tragedy.
The movie was written and directed by David Leland. You may have seen or heard about "Personal Services," an earlier movie he wrote. It was based on the story of a notorious British madam named Cynthia Payne, who ran a house of ill repute for old-age pensioners and retired military men with kinky tastes.
Although "Wish You Were Here" never makes the connection, it is based on stories that Payne told Leland about her childhood, when sex was something nobody talked about and sexual initiation was accompanied by ignorance, fear and psychic trauma. Payne could never quite see what the fuss was about - still can't, if the latest headlines about her are correct. Her approach was completely amoral: If sex is something they want and you can supply, and you can benefit as much as, or more than, they can, then where's the problem?
The answer, of course, is that there can be endless problems, especially to a girl so essentially innocent and vulnerable as Lynda in this movie. After she gets a job at the bus station, her boss walks in to catch her flashing her legs for the appreciative bus drivers. A young local lad fancies himself a Don Juan, and gets her into bed, only to appear in the bedroom door in a silk dressing gown, smoking a cigarette in a holder and doing his Ronald Colman imitation (which is, as it turns out, his idea of sex).
"Do you fancy me?" he asks. "Not half so much as you fancy yourself," she says, and the night ends with her still largely ignorant about the facts of life. But her schooling resumes at the hands of the middle-age projectionist at the local theater, who understands the mechanics of sex and totally lacks any understanding of human nature - hers, or his own.
Under the circumstances, it is hard for Lynda to keep smiling, to think positive in the face of a general conspiracy to treat sex as filthy and herself as worthless. The last shot of the movie will strike some people as hopeless and misleading romanticism; I prefer to see it as optimism in the face of despair.
The key to this movie is the performance by 16-year-old Lloyd as Lynda. The screenplay could have gone a dozen different ways, depending on who was cast in the role. Lloyd is so fresh, so filled with fun and rebellion, that she carries us past the tricky parts on the strength of personality alone. It's one of the great debut roles for a young actress. I was reminded of a cross between Julie Christie in "Darling" and Rita Tushingham in "A Taste of Honey." It'll be interesting to see what the future holds for her. More than it did for Lynda, I imagine, and for Cynthia Payne.

Good vitamin profile, bad taste.
Posted by thenourishedlife on May 06, 2012
I bought these because I liked the nutrient profile more than other chewable vitamins, but unfortunately my kids hated the taste. When they complained, my husband and I tasted them and agreed these are barely tolerable. I'll keep searching.

Hosted PBX vs Standard PBX
Specific differences between a hosted PBX vs standard PBX service depend on the particular PBX equipment being compared. VirtualPBX offers a full-featured system with capabilities equal to or greater than the most expensive hardware systems. There are some key differences, however, that arise from the basic way the systems work.
Premise-based equipment is usually employed inside an office or building and is typically a single piece of hardware with multiple incoming phone lines shared across a higher number of extensions. Maintaining PBX equipment requires knowledge of PBX and phone technology and skilled technicians onsite to do the work.
VirtualPBX systems are hosted on our servers and our engineers address all of the equipment and maintenance needs. Calls are routed from the hosted PBX to extension owners through the public telephone network, enabling calls to be easily routed to anyone, at any phone, in any location. Administration of the system is done through a web-based interface, and is done easily in real-time by anyone, regardless of his or her familiarity with telephone systems.
Here are some clear contrasts between the two options:
|Hosted PBX
|Standard PBX
|Up-Front Costs
|Very Low
|Very High
|Support Costs
|Cost Per Minute on Incoming Calls
|Low to Very Low
|Shares Incoming Phone Lines
|Routes Calls to Any Phone
|Supports Distributed Employees
|Very High
|Call Capacity
|Very High
|Full Feature Set
|Expensive Extra
|Fault Tolerant
|No or Expensive
|ACD Queuing
|Distributed Administration
What to Choose?
When a Standard PBX System Makes Sense
- All employees are physically located in the same office
- High up-front costs are acceptable in exchange for the lowest monthly cost possible
- There is no need for toll-free service for callers
- Larger companies
- There is little likelihood of change in company size
When a Hosted Service like VirtualPBX is the Better Choice:
- Some employees telecommute or work away from the main office
- There is no main office – the company uses a "virtual" office
- High up-front costs are not an option
- The company wants to offer toll-free calls to its customers
- Small companies
- Companies that expect their needs to change
- Incoming call capacity needs to be high
- Fault tolerance and system reliability are important
- There is no desire to dedicate employees or contract outside for PBX support

If you don't have a copy of it on your computer or in a backup, no.
Thanks, I figured as much. Will I be able to save all my apps and content by importing them to my computer and then uploading them back to my iPad after I upgrade the iOS? If so, do you happen to know if a gen 1 iPad running an iOS 4.2.1 is able to upgrade to an iOS 5? I did read online that the iOS 6 is NOT compatible with it so I want to be sure the iOS 5 is before I go through the trouble...
1. Click here for information.
2. Yes.
Ok, one last question. The things that iTunes will not back-up such as apps, music, movies, tv shows etc., are the things I most don't want to (and can't afford to) lose. Is there a somewhere else I can back-up these items on my computer in order to upload them back to my iPad after I upgrade the iOS?

People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals
We didn't get the People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals press release till way late in the afternoon yesterday, but on Tuesday, PETA member Shari Pearson took off her top, whipped out the body paint and crawled into a cage in downtown Fort Worth to protest Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Circus's arrival in Fort Worth ... in August? Anyway, PETA's Virginia Fort forwarded along some photos from the happening. There's another after the jump. And KXAS-Channel 5 has some video.

Yahoo! Movies has premiered the first clip from Fox's Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter, the Timur Bekmambetov-directed adaptation of the bestselling novel by Seth Grahame-Smith. Called "Train Escape," the sequence finds the ax-wielding 16th president (played by Benjamin Walker) and his valet William Johnson (Anthony Mackie) attempting to stop a gaggle of vampires from arriving by train in Gettysburg.
The film, which opens June 22, also stars Dominic Cooper, Mary Elizabeth Winstead, Jimmi Simpson, Robin McLeavy, Alan Tudyk and Rufus Sewell.
Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter explores the secret life of our greatest president, and the untold story that shaped our nation. Visionary filmmakers Tim Burton and Timur Bekmambetov (director of Wanted) bring a fresh and visceral voice to the bloodthirsty lore of the vampire, imagining Lincoln as history's greatest hunter of the undead.
They need to get Abe together w/ Queen Victoria Demon Hunter in the next installment :)

Update on HeidelbergCement takeover of Italcementi
Written by David Perilli, Global Cement
17 February 2016
HeidelbergCement has finally provided a little more detail about its acquisition of Italcementi with the releases of its preliminary results for 2015. The key message is that all is well. Expected savings from the takeover are growing, less borrowing is required to make the purchase and the approvals from competition commissions around the world are rolling in.
Looking at the cost savings first, the potential for synergies or operational savings was first estimated at Euro175m at the time of the takeover announcement in late July 2015. At that time HeidelbergCement hoped to be able to deliver almost 30% of this figure in 2016. If it goes ahead this will sweeten the honeymoon period considerably following the completion of the deal. The largest savings were expected to come from the commercial area and in purchasing.
This figure then grew to Euro300m at the time of HeidelbergCement's third quarter results in November 2015. Now, the effects of financing costs and taxes were included. At this point some more strategy about how HeidelbergCement was planning to use Italcementi's resources started to emerge in the synergy calculations. HeidelbergCement intends to use its global trading business with Italcementi's 'export orientated' cement plants. Import demand, for example in North America or Africa, that used to be bought from third party sources previously, can now be supplied by Italcementi's plants after the merger, meeting demand and holding capacity utilisation rates up. With the publication of the preliminary results for 2015 the savings figure has grown to Euro400m with little explanation. If only it were that easy to find Euro100m down the back of my sofa.
The financing has also been proceeding smoothly. The loan value required for the takeover has fallen from Euro4.4bn to Euro2bn. Reasons for this include the exclusion of the risk of a mandatory takeover offer to minority shareholders in Morocco, some of Italcementi's creditor banks agreeing to waive their change of control clauses and the issuance of a Euro625m bond in January 2016. The bridge financing, available initially from Deutsche Bank and Morgan Stanley, remains at Euro2.7bn.
Finally, competition commission approval has been granted in India, Canada, Morocco and Kazakhstan. Despite holding a cement product capacity of 10.5Mt/yr in India with 4.1Mt/yr additional capacity in development, this was unlikely to be a problem in India, with its total national capacity of 280Mt/yr. The commission implemented the Elzinga Hogarty Test and concluded that there is sufficient competition.
This leaves the possibly trickier approvals outstanding in Europe and the US. Belgium is likely to be the main issue in Europe given that the two companies run 73% or 4.5Mt/yr of the market in production capacity. Divestments are expected here.
In the US, precedent should save HeidelbergCement from interference. HeidelbergCement's and Italcementi's combined cement production assets will give it a production capacity of 16.4Mt/yr or around 14% or market share. This will make it the second biggest producer in the country after LafargeHolcim which had its merger approved in 2015. There are no obvious overlaps in their clinker production assets except for a minor one in Pennsylvania which holds both the 2Mt/yr Ordinary Portland Cement Essroc (Italcementi) Nazareth Plant and the 0.13Mt/yr Lehigh White Cement (HeidelbergCement). These two plants are unlikely to be considered in competition with each other.
So, continued smooth sailing is expected for the takeover. Since most of the information regarding the acquisition has come directly from HeidelbergCement it was unlikely to appear otherwise. Let's see whether this remains the case when Italcementi releases its financial results for 2015 later in the week on 19 February 2016.
HeidelbergCement profit rises by 16% in 2015
Written by Global Cement staff
16 February 2016
Germany: HeidelbergCement has reported that its operating income or profit has risen by 16% year-on-year to Euro1.85bn in 2015 from Euro1.6bn in 2014 in its preliminary results for 2015. Its revenue grew by 6.7% to Euro13.5bn from Euro12.6bn in the same period. It attributed the growth to efficiency drives, price increases in key markets, lower energy costs and currency effects due to a weakening Euro.
"2015 was by far the best year for HeidelbergCement since the financial crisis," said Bernd Scheifele, Chairman of the Managing Board. "Despite the slowdown of the global economy in the course of the year, we were able to significantly increase our operating income as anticipated. Our strict focus on improving efficiency and margins in recent years, our advantageous geographical positioning, and continuous investments in growth have made a significant contribution."
The group reported that sales volumes of cement remained stable in 2015. A rise in cement deliveries in North America and Africa almost compensated for the decrease in Europe and Asia. Sales also benefited in the fourth quarter of 2015 from mild weather extending the construction period in parts of Europe. Overall the group reported that sales volumes of cement, clinker and ground-granulated blast-furnace slag (GGBS) fell slightly to 81.8Mt in 2015 from 81.1Mt in 2014. A similar trend was reported in the fourth quarter of 2015.
By region, overall sales revenue rose in Western and Northern Europe in 2015 driven by demand for building materials in the UK, price increases, currency effects and reduced energy costs. Despite all of this cement sales volumes fell slightly. In Eastern Europe and Central Asia both sales revenue and volumes fell in 2015 mainly due to decreased demand in Ukraine and Russia. In North America both sales revenue and volumes grew in 2015 with a particular positive trend in the west of the US. Revenue grew by 22.9% to Euro3.75bn. Sales volumes in cement grew by 1.9% to 12.3Mt. Asia-Pacific reported both sales revenue and volumes falling in 2015 led by a downturn in Indonesia and Malaysia. Sales revenue and volumes grew in Africa-Mediterranean Basin in 2015 in most countries with the exception of Ghana, where sales volumes fell due to negative effects due to the falling oil price.
HeidelbergCement noted in its preliminary results that the 'evaluation of potential synergies was provisionally concluded at the start of 2016' for its takeover of Italcementi. As such its cost-saving target for the takeover has been raised from Euro300m to Euro400m. Approvals have been granted by the competition authorities in India, Canada, Morocco, and Kazakhstan. Discussions with the competition authorities in the US and in Europe are currently ongoing. HeidelbergCement expects the purchase of the 45% stake to be concluded in the first half of 2016.

37 cement companies apply for coal licences
Written by Global Cement staff
15 February 2016
Egypt: 37 companies have applied for licences to use coal at cement plants, according to the Industrial Development Authority (IDA). IDA Head Ismail Gaber said that the new licenses aim to increase investments in the cement industry to meet local consumption.
Minister of Industry Tarek Qabil announced in January 2016 that licences would be issued to establish 14 new coal-fired cement factories in nine governorates in Beni Suef, Minya, Qena, Sohag, Aswan, New Valley, Suez, Marsa Matruh and South Sinai. Together these plants will have a cement production capacity of 28Mt/yr. The deadline for receiving offers from companies is 10 May 2016.

Summer reading for Seymour
Summer is the perfect time to relax with a good book and the Mitchell Shire Library Service is running The Summer Read program, offering free books to borrow.January 9, 2014 4:45am
Seymour residents are being urged to sit back, relax and lose themselves in a good book.
And to help them do this the Mitchell Shire Library Service and Goulburn Valley Regional Library is again running The Summer Read.
The program is a State Library of Victoria and Public Libraries Network Victoria initiative celebrating the diversity of Victorian writing and encourages people to take time out with a good read.
Mitchell Shire Council Libraries have been participating in the State Library of Victoria's Summer Read Program for Adults and Juniors, with the adult program offering 10 2013-released books to borrow for free.
Mitchell Shire Council mayor Rodney Parker said participation in the program has been excellent.
''After reading the books, participants can then fill out and return their entry forms to any Mitchell Shire Library for a chance to win several book packs as prizes,'' Cr Parker said.
Children can also get in on the literary action, with the investigation-themed Junior Summer Read Program packed with fantastic reading and excellent prizes.
''Junior Summer Read participants must get through the reading material and will then get a certificate of completion, plus the chance to win prizes including a Nintendo 3DS,'' Cr Parker said.
Goulburn Valley Regional Library chief executive officer Charles Gentner said The Summer Read gave people the chance to discover local authors and new books.
''It doesn't matter if you're at home or on holidays, summer is the perfect time to pick up a book and read,'' Mr Gentner said.
''After the often hectic pace of life throughout the year, The Summer Read encourages us all to relax and recharge — and the best way to do that is with a terrific book.''
The books are:
The Battle For Lone Pine: Four Days of Hell at the Heart of Gallipoli, David W. Cameron (Penguin, non-fiction).
A World of Other People, Steven Carroll (HarperCollins fiction).
Sisters of Spicefield, Fran Cusworth (Random House, fiction).
Love With a Chance of Drowning: A Memoir, Torre DeRoche (Penguin, memoir).
The Memory Trap, Andrea Goldsmith (HarperCollins, fiction).
Blood Witness, Alex Hammond (Penguin, crime fiction).
Night Games: Sex, Power and Sport, Anna Krien (Black Inc, non-fiction).
Is It Just Me? Confessions of an Over-sharer, Chrissie Swan (Black Inc, autobiography).
Father Bob: Larrikin Priest, Sue Williams (Penguin, biography).
The Swan Book, Alexis Wright (Giramondo, fiction).
Registered participants can also use their powers of deduction to guess the number of lollies in the jar at each library for a chance to win a prize.
Other school holiday activities for primary school aged youth available in January at Seymour Library include: Make a rocket at 2
The Summer Read runs to February 16. For more information, visit www.slv.vic.gov.au/summer-read and for Goulburn Valley Regional Library details visit www.gvrlc.vic.gov.au

Manchester levy gains provisional votes
11/21/2013 - South Side Leader
Judge Cook also gains votes in Akron Municipal Court race
DOWNTOWN AKRON — The Manchester Local Schools operating levy increased its lead with the addition of provisional votes from the Nov. 5 General Election, and Akron Municipal Court Judge Katarina Cook will likely keep her seat on the bench after gaining votes to put her ahead of challenger Jon Oldham.
The Summit County Board of Elections (BOE) released an updated vote summary Nov. 18 that showed that Issue No. 45, the Manchester levy, now has 1,315 "yes" votes to 1,304 "no" votes for a difference of 11 votes. On election night, the levy was winning by just one vote.
Manchester Superintendent Sam Reynolds said the news this week was "wonderful."
"I'm cautiously optimistic," he said, noting that there will be an automatic recount because the difference was less than one-half of 1 percent. BOE Director Joe Masich said the board will next meet to certify the election results Nov. 26, and at that time will schedule a date for the recount to take place.
With the levy assumed to be successful, Reynolds said he is grateful to voters for helping to get the request for new money passed on its first try.
"The schools have been cut drastically by the state and federal governments, and the next step was to eliminate important student programming, so I think people received that message and voted for their children," Reynolds said. "I'm grateful to them. I know that it was a difficult decision. I appreciate all the people who voted in this election, and I have a great respect for Manchester people and their support of their schools over the years."
According to district officials, the five-year, 5.99-mill operating levy will cost the owner of a property valued at $100,000 about $210 annually in new taxes and raise a little more than $1.1 million annually for the district's General Fund. The levy would be effective this year, with collections to start in 2014.
Revenue from the district's General Fund is used to pay for operating expenses that include employee salaries and benefits, purchased services such as insurance and contract services, textbooks, transportation, extracurricular programs for students, materials and supplies, according to Reynolds.
He added this week that he doesn't expect any changes to be made in the district at this time. Cuts already made will remain.
The BOE also reported this week that in the race for Akron Municipal Court, incumbent Cook now has 13,887 votes, or 50.03 percent, to Oldham's 13,870, or 49.97 percent — a difference of 17 votes. On election night Nov. 5, Oldham was leading in the race with 16 votes.
Masich said there will be a recount in this race as well.
Cook said she was happy to see that her campaign gained the votes to put her at the top.
"I am obviously so very grateful to the voters and am looking forward to serving the court as judge for six more years," she said. "This is just proof that every vote counts."
Cook said she and her fellow judges are currently working to certify the court's specialty courts, of which hers deals with repeat OVI offenders. She added she is interested in exploring a program for shoplifters, as that has become a big problem in the community.
Oldham said he is grateful for the support he received in his first time running for office.
"I'm still somewhat stunned with it being so close," he said. "It's not over until they say it's over, but we are getting close to it being over. Win or lose, it's nice to run such a close race."
The Akron Municipal Court serves the cities of Akron and Fairlawn; the Villages of Lakemore and Richfield; the townships of Bath, Richfield and Springfield; and the part of Mogadore that is in Summit County.

Here's the question you clicked on:
Operations on Complex Numbers
simplify the expression
Ok so start by rewrite \[\sqrt{-10}=i \sqrt{10}\]
ok, im following
Do you get that idea?
yes I understand that i believe
Do the same with sqrt(-5)
Then distribute
ok so its i\[\sqrt{-5}\]
hang on
Not really, the reason for why you take out the i is that you want the minus under the squareroot to disappear
\[i \sqrt{5}\]
Do you know the definition of i?
\[i=\sqrt{-1}\] \[i ^{2}=-1\]
well i know that i means the y on a plane and it is the imaginary part?
That's also, kind of, correct when dealing with imaginary numbers the Y-X plane is called Im-Re
So based on the definition of \[i=\sqrt{-1}\] what's, for example \[\sqrt{-7}\]
\[i \sqrt{10}(11+i \sqrt{5})\]=\[11i \sqrt{10}+i ^{2}\sqrt{10}\sqrt{5}= 11i \sqrt{10}-\sqrt{50}\]

Apr 6By BCgradnurse In The film: Vaxxed. →Quote from BostonFNPBecause the movie is "entertainment" so they could pick and choose what and who they wanted to present-an adaptation if you will. Not a surprise, given that the original data was manipulated to serve Wakefield's purposes. Might as well continue on in the same tradition.Finally a review addressed one of the main points I was interested in seeing in Vaxxed, given it's basis on the Thompson "whistleblower" information. As anyone who has read the study knows, the data in question involved only black males, so naturally the movie should focus on black boys with autisim right? Apparently there was only one in the whole movie. Why did if focus on white people is all that data was clearly published in the study that showed no link between autisim and MMR?
Apr 6By Spidey's mom In The film: Vaxxed. →
Please don't mischaracterize our choice in not seeing the film. We know what is in it. You don't have to watch the movie to know what the movie is about.
We are not fearful. We are saddened and yes, as Far mentioned, disgusted that kids with autism are being used in such a terrible way.
Apr 1By BCgradnurse In The film: Vaxxed. →
Concerned lady-
I appreciate your passion on this subject matter. However, I have yet to see you present credible evidence that backs up your statements that vaccines cause autism. Several people here have given you links to proven, reputable, scientific studies that dispute your claim. Have you read those? If not, are you willing to? If not, then how can you condemn those who are not interested in seeing some pseudoscientific movie directed by someone who has been wholly discredited in the medical and scientific community? And for my own knowledge, are you a nurse?
I don't have a neuron in me that believes vaccines cause autism. I do believe in rare cases some have adverse reactions to vaccines, some of which have lifelong effects. However, given the choice, I'd rather have a living autistic child than a dead typically developing one who died from a vaccine presentable disease.
Mar 30By KyleFitzgerald In The film: Vaxxed. →
I happen to know many people in my network of people who happen to believe such ideas... The first thing I tell them that if it doesn't have APA style citations from credible sources such as universities or recognized medical journals then it is false until PROVEN other wise.... Next I encourage them to take a microbiology class (medical terminology class wouldn't hurt either now that I think of it) and they will quickly realize the falseness in these articles videos and stories..... I'm very passionate about this topic and could rant all day but I'll just leave it at that
Happy nursing!

I know this is resuscitating an old, possibly irrelevant thread, but I had new insights. When I first responded to this in 2013, I was nearly finished with my BSN and had acquired a lot of knowledge, quite a bit of it through the study and research needed to write those "useless" papers.
When I went back yesterday and saw there had been a new comment, I decided to page through the original thread. I was surprised to learn that the paper the OP was complaining about was a concept analysis. I didn't know what that was back when I initially responded. Since then, I've been taking graduate level theory courses and am quite familiar with concept analyses.
For any that go through this thread I wanted to share that while a paper on Caring, Hope, Trust or Fear seems completely stupid on the surface, it is not "just a paper". A concept analysis is a systematic process designed to help the reader (or writer) understand what that concept is and is not.
This is can be extremely important especially when you get tired of hearing people carelessly throwing common or popular terms or catch phrases around. Want to have a healthy discussion with your upper management on their new standards of "caring" that don't seem to make much sense, you'd be surprised how they may pay better attention if you can speak intelligently on what caring IS and what caring IS NOT. Just one example.
I did a concept analysis on "family centered care". What became apparent to me was that this term is used extremely loosely to incorporate most anything healthcare workers want to push in the NICU (or other settings, but I'm NICU focused). Doing that concept analysis helped me develop a laser-focused view on what family-centered care really truly is, and how this should be our main focus, but don't try to term something family-centered care when it's really consumer-centered business, I will call you out on it and cite chapter/verse (author, year, whatever).
If you want a good explanation, and have some kind of library access there is this:
Cronin, E., Ryan, F., & Coughlan, M. (2010). Concept analysis in healthcare research. International Journal of Therapy and Rehabilitation, 12(2), 62-68. DOI:10.12968/ijtr.2010.17.2.46331

I think I am tired of one half shooting their mouth off with nothing but an opinion. I saw an excellent post including citations to back up her opinion. Enough with the Kool-aid crap. I notice there was no respose to my statements of this Lil ole nurse running circles around first year residents. My experience and desire for knowledge made me a damn good nurse. I told an ARNP to go pound sand today because I don't feel she's in a position she belongs in. Does that mean all NP's or PA's are bad? Hell no. If your good at what your job is you have the respect of my 30+ years experience. If you don't put in the effort find another career. As a Nurse I can run circles around my 25 year old daughter. But I know my kid and I know she has the ability to become a damn good FNP because she works hard and practices harder. She has 2 great mentors her mother in law with 35 years experience and a dad with 30. To wrap it up she won't belong in critical care but she will kick butt in a Family Practice. I don't prefer MD'S I prefer DO's does that mean one is better than the other?
Get real. Put FNP's where they shine. Good night yall gave me a headache

The thing is what I name "Tina Jones problem".
(For those who do not know, Ms. Tina Jones is a simulation patient used by Shadow Health, an online assessment training company used by many NP and medical schools for basic assessment training).
Ms. Tina Jones is in her mid-20th, AA, obese, hypertensive, with DM type II and mild asthma, and a slew of other minor ailments for which she "is seen" in urgent care-like setting. Family history of heart disease. No primary care provider. No regular treatment for DM and HTN.
Now, how many of just such Tinas come through ERs and UC centers daily in this country? Every health care provider, physician and down to possibly MAs, know how it all gonna to end. Tina is in her mid-20th now and feels just fine. If her health is continue to be "managed" like it is right now (i.e. no good glucose control, no weight control, no BP control, little if any exercise) she will get the first calls from her eyes and her kidneys in the next 15 to 20 years. She will have a pretty good chance to celebrate her 65th birthday being hooked to dialysis machine, and she will be lucky indeed if at this date she sees her birthday cake and still has both legs and not living in excrutiating pain. She will probably die from heart disease before or shortly after her 70th birthday.
We all know it. There are tons of evidence around to confirm this prognosis. We also all know what needs to be done to avert it and let Tina live long and healthy life. In short, someone of us needs to get Tina to understand the seriousness of her situation and help her to manage her own health. Tina needs to be seen in office at least once a month, for the beginning. She needs to be spoken with, encouraged, taught, motivated endlessly. One needs to call her once in a while to make sure she checks her BP and sugar. She needs info about communuty programs, affordable gym classes friendly for African American women, maybe even some grocery coupons for fresh produce.
Now, the health care provider who will do it all for Ms. Tina may not necesserily know the molecular mechanism of ACE inhibitors action. It would be nice addition, but not mandatory. What would be mandatory is his or her ability to connect, educate and motivate Ms. Tina, as well as willingness to speak and ability to answer questions the way Tina understands, because what we need is Ms. Tina taking her lisinopril DAILY as a prayer. Same (or worse than that) goes about Ms. Tina's diet, blood glucose control, etc.
Doing a quick physical and writing a half a dozen scripts in ER will not help Tina. Only long-term, systemic, relentless and thankless care will, and I do not foresee doctors standing in lines willing to do this kind of jobs.
Feb 24Quote from BostonFNPThat's a fair point.Calling to verify that a order is correct is fine, and often appreciated. I am not sure that's what the initial post was about though. I don't think having concern is a "bad thing", don't get me wrong, I would be happy if someone called and verified it, or if a med was held due to concern for an adverse effect.
I do think there is a lot of bias when dealing with these type of medications, which I don't feel is appropriate from members of the health care team. For example, do you have the same concerns about dosing insulin at breakfast and at lunch? There is a stigma about mental health in general, and IMHO, a stigma on the parents of children with ADHD.
Again, all my kids are "self serve", so to speak, so no.
I would say-we see so many NON medicated kids out there, that a kid being on Ritalin or something of that ilk is usually more welcomed than not.
(I can't speak for Cattz, of course.)

I am an MSN/FNP student. I am also an IMG who passed USMLE and even did a year of IM residency before turning to nursing. It is another story why I did it, but I can see things from different perspective.
To begin with, there are different doctors, nurses, PAs and so on. During my residency year I was NEVER required to interpret X-ray beyond the very basics, let alone CT or MRI, although I could order them any second. I was required to explain in details why I would want to order them, what exactly I was expecting to see, read interpretations and make conclusions, sometimes quite intricate, of what they could mean in context of the patient's symptoms, but that was that. I did total one big arterial stick and only started to do lines because I was following seniors like a tail. I never had to suture or cast or even put an IV in. Right now (in acute care, not ER) I have more than enough PAs and MDs who seem to never in their lives do anything "technical" at all. And do not even get me started on physical assessment skills. There are doctors who do not even auscultate heart when told about new (!) murmur in chronically septic (!) patient, leaving alone correct auscultation of all 5 points in 3 positions plus vessels. They just order ultrasound.
Second, I am seeing quite enough physicians who are experts in their own area but feel extremely uncomfortable if things start to run even a little bit unpredictable way. I work with very complex patients and sometimes I have to literally spend my day calling one consultant after another and exasperating that a hospitalist "cannot" manage a patient with fever AND positive Kernig just because 1) fever is going under ID service and 2) positive Kernig is going under Neuro service. I also have to remind some doctors, on pretty much regular basis, to please discontinue all b-blockers if patient is getting Levophed drip, as just one example.
I find nursing education deficient, on Bachelor's as well as so far on Master's level, that's why I got basic science textbooks (Lang's patho, pharm and biochem) and read them in my spare time to dust off my brains. They are not at all difficult to understand, BTW. But I have high suspicions that no amount of scientific knowledge will teach a person how to think clinically. Any technical skill can be taught to almost anyone given the right circumstances, but critical and clinical thinking is another thing. Unfortunately, critical thinking taught in BSN programs have nothing to do with what is required in real life, leaving alone provider's level. PAs do not have to make this transition, and I think this is the reason why they are perceived as "much easy to work with" by MDs. For many RNs I observe, moving from "problems" and care plans and, God forbids, policies governing their every breath and move to simple scientific explanation of, for just one example, why and how sepsis can cause elevation of AST/ALT and what does it mean implies a psychological trauma of a sort. Many of them, to put it mildly, do not much like people who tend to explain how human body works, and this discourages other nurses from furthering their education.
I am absolutely sure that I could learn how to do sutures and lines if I need and want it. We have an optional class where FNP students who want these skills can learn basics in lab and later add a bit on clinical. We also have X-ray reading basics now and going to continue to do them through the program. I do a whole lot of my own physical exams (I am actually supposed to do real head-to-toe on every patient every shift, so I am just using the opportunity). But what I enjoy most is that my program pushes us hard to thinking as providers, not as nurses, and where they let us slack, I just do it myself

One big problem I have noticed is the seemingly haphazard decision making of people wanting to become NP's. Then I see all these complaints about not being able to find preceptors or my school doesn't place me here. Did you research this before you pulled the trigger on a new career? It took me 8 years to fully decide I wanted to be an NP and that's after tossing around anesthesia (which I would do but it wont work out for the family). I go to a very well known state university that does not provide preceptors and I knew this going in. I had NP preceptors and physician preceptors lined up even before I applied to school due to my networking over the previous 8 years (through working). I think people need to step back and look at the whole situation before you decide this is what you want out of life. NP seems to be turning into the next MBA....

For any Texas APRN authorization less than two years old, the APRN renewal requirements (2) & (4) (as listed above) pertainingto CE and 400 practice hours are waived. NOTE: If APRN CE & 400 practice hours are waived, but your Texas RN license isbeyond the first renewal, then you must have 20 hours of CE for your RN license.

I know that it's a license reactivation application but I didn't have time to look up the one you're looking for. I just renewed mine for the first time and wasn't required to submit any hours. They said it was because this was my first renewal and it was less than 2 years.
Hope this helps

What are the employment opportunities? In the end, that (for me at least) was what was important.
Since you can't move, can you get a job?
Feb 16Quote from BostonFNPOur facility policy and many state BONs states that it is outside the scope of UAP to assess patients.I am not sure I understand your rationale that it is out of the scope of MAs but in the scope of RNs? If the protocol/algorithm is perfect then what shouldn't any HCP be able to use it, or for that matter any lay person?
And how do you know that the infection is common? And how do you know it's uncomplicated?
It's really not rocket science. The algorithm was approved by our medical director, based on current literature. We even have a nurse triage line and they can use the algorithm to send an Rx to the patient's pharmacy, without even collecting a urine culture or physically assessing the patient!!!eleven!
