Vegan Diets
Vegan diets are a type of vegetarian diet, where only plant-based foods are eaten. They differ to other vegetarian diets in that no animal products are usually consumed or used. Despite these restrictions, with good planning it is still possible to obtain all the nutrients required for good health on a vegan diet.
The following foods can be included in a vegan diet:
• Fruit and vegetables
• Breads, cereals and grains
• Legumes (eg lentils, chickpeas, dried beans)
• Soy products
• Nuts and seeds.
The following foods are excluded in a vegan diet:
• Meat, poultry, fish and seafood
• Dairy products
• Eggs
• Animal fats
• Often honey, plus other animal-derived ingredients or food additives
The main reasons why some people choose to follow a vegan diet include: religious reasons, environmental and health concerns and animal rights.
Like any eating plan which restricts certain food groups, a vegan diet needs careful planning to ensure that nutritional requirements are met. Following are sources of key nutrients in a vegan diet:
• Protein: sources include legumes (dried beans, peas and lentils), nuts and seeds, soy products and wholegrain breads and cereals (particularly amaranth and quinoa).
• Zinc: sources include legumes, nuts, seeds and wholegrain breads and cereals.
• Iron: sources include legumes, tofu, nuts, seeds, wholegrains (especially amaranth and quinoa), dried fruits and dark green leafy vegetables.
Vegans can easily obtain enough iron from plant foods. However the type of iron found in plant foods (non-haem iron) is not as readily absorbed as the type found in animal foods (haem iron). In order to increase the absorption of iron from plant sources, follow these simple steps:
• Include a vitamin C-rich food with meals to increase the iron absorption – eg berries, citrus fruit, kiwi fruit, capsicum, tomatoes or broccoli
• Drink tea between meals instead of with the meal, as the phytates in tea can inhibit iron absorption.
For more information about iron visit Nutrition Information A-Z Anaemia.
• B12 : Vitamin B12 is only found naturally in animal products, being originally derived from bacteria. Those following a vegan diet will need to ensure that they either consume foods fortified with vitamin B12 or take a vitamin B12 supplement. For further advice about supplementation, see your doctor and speak to an Accredited Practising Dietitian (APD).
• Calcium: As a vegan diet does not include dairy products, it is essential that non-dairy sources of calcium are consumed on a daily basis. Some good plant sources of calcium include calcium-fortified soy products, hard tofu, almonds, unhulled tahini (sesame seed paste) and green leafy vegetables such as Kale and Asian greens (e.g. bok choy, Chinese broccoli).
• Vitamin D: most of our vitamin D comes from the action of sunlight on the skin. Therefore vegans can obtain their vitamin D from safe sun exposure unless they cover up or spend significant time indoors throughout the year. Vitamin D is found in a limited number of foods. Fortified soy milks and 'vitamin D mushrooms' provide a good source for vegans.
• Omega 3: Sources for vegan diets include linseeds/flaxseeds and chia seeds (and their oils), walnuts, soy products and omega-3 fortified foods such as some breads. While some food products enriched with omega-3 use a derivative of seaweed as the source of omega fatty acids, vegans should check food labels for suitability.
Any diet that excludes nutritious food groups needs careful planning to ensure nutritional needs are met. Whether you are currently following a vegan diet, or are considering changing to a vegan diet, it is a good idea to consult an APD with special interest in this area. An APD will help to ensure you are receiving adequate nutrition to maintain good health. Visit the 'Find an APD' section to find an APD near you.

Welspun to manufacture sheets using Louisville Bedding construction
September 8, 2009-- Home Textiles Today,
New York – Welspun and Louisville Bedding have signed a licensing agreement under which Welspun will produce bed sheets using Lousville's patented Flexi-Fit construction.
Flexi-Fit was created by Louisville's Mike Seago, vp of development, when mattress sizes began ballooning. After experimenting with elastics, pockets and a variety of constructions, Seago developed a technology that helps sheets fit any size mattress, "from traditional to high-end pillow top," said Steve Elias, president and ceo, Louisville.
Louisville will continue to manufacture Flexi-Fit sheets under its Beautyrest license, but "the partnership with Welspun provides us an opportunity to expand our technology to the many new sheeting programs" Welspun is developing.
Welspun will use Flexi-Fit as part of its new technologies initiatives, according to the company's Bob Hamilton, director of marketing.
"Flexi-Fit is a powerful addition to a series of propriety sheeting products that will be presented under several of Welspun's brands including Christy, Nautica and Smart Ideas for bed and bath," he said.

The swelling of the ankles could be due to a number of things, therefore without knowing you, your body, etc. it is difficult to make an assessment – however, one indicator can be the kidneys. We would first recommend drinking plenty of water during the day to stimulate the kidneys to release excess water in the legs. The numbness could also be due to a number of other things with your body, but a broadscope approach would be trying Ginkgo and other members to help with circulation.
With regards to your girlfriend's hair loss, it sounds as if she may be deficient on key minerals. A good place to start may be our blood and lymphatic and kidney and liver detox formulas. Another avenue to try would be hair skin and nails formulas which include Gotu Kola, Horsetail and Nettles leaf.

Gov. Neil Abercrombie signed an Emergency Proclamation Sunday in preparation of Tropical Storm Flossie.
The proclamation provides certain authorities that will allow the state to more effectively prepare for the arrival of Flossie, expected to make landfall Monday morning on the eastern end of Hawaii Island.
Local, state and federal governmental agencies and non-profit partners are coordinating and working together to minimize the impact of the projected high wind, waves and torrential rain.
"All parts of our emergency response system for the entire state are working together," Gov. Abercrombie said. "The purpose of signing this proclamation is to ensure that state agencies have full powers necessary to best protect and serve the people of Hawaii."
The emergency proclamation covers such items as access to the major disaster fund to cover staff overtime and other expenses, allowing emergency procurement of needed supplies and resources, as well as activation of the National Guard, if needed.
Hawaii County Mayor Billy Kenoi said all non-essential county workers should not report to work on Monday.
Nine Big Island shelters have been confirmed to be open by 4 a.m. Monday. They are as follows:
-Hisaoka Gym (N. Kohala)
-Waimea Community Center (S. Kohala)
-Honaka'a Gym (Hamakua)
-Aunty Sally's Luau Hale (S. Hilo)
-Pahoa Community Center (Puna)
-Laupahoehoe Charter School
-Mt. View School
-Pahala Community Center
- West Hawaii Civic Center
People are strongly encouraged to bring their disaster supply kits with them to the shelters; disaster kits should include non-perishable, ready-to-eat food items.

New Fall 2012 Shows: Ralph Lauren, L'Wren Scott, Calvin Klein, and More
Plus, Pamella Roland, Suzanne Rae, Theia, and more.
While transatlantic red-eye flights transport editors, models, street style stars, and more over to Europe for more fall shows, here's a final roundup from New York Fashion Week. Perhaps fittingly given Rooney Mara's presence, Calvin Klein showed sharp tailored pieces in black leather — certainly Girl with Dragon Tattoo appropriate. L'Wren Scott presented luxe gowns (and capes!) in silks and velvets; Ralph Lauren swapped East Coast preppy stylings for those of the British upper classes — tweedy separates and bowler hats all over. And with that, it's on to London Fashion Week indeed.

On March 20, 2014, an OHA Administrative Judge issued a decision in which she concluded that an individual's access authorization should not be restored. A Local Security Office (LSO) conducted a Personnel Security Interview of the individual to address concerns about his alcohol consumption which arose during the Office of Personnel Management's re-investigation of the individual. The LSO referred the individual to meet with a DOE psychologist, who diagnosed the individual with alcohol use disorder under DSM-5, which was concurrent with alcohol abuse disorder under DSM-IV-TR. The DOE psychologist recommended that the individual remain abstinent for six months. In its Notification Letter, the LSO cited the individual's admission that he typically consumes two beers and one to three White Russians on most Friday and Saturday nights, that he has been intoxicated three times from 2010 to 2013, admission that he abuses alcohol on weekends, admission that he drove while intoxicated 20 to 30 times in his life, and that in 1974, he was arrested for contributing to the delinquency of a minor. At the hearing, while the individual was only abstinent for three months, the DOE psychologist and the individual's therapist testified that he provided adequate evidence of reformation or rehabilitation, despite her original recommendation that he remain abstinent for six months. However, the individual's therapist still recommended that the individual remain abstinent for six months in order to sufficiently demonstrate his commitment to abstinence. Hence, due to her doubts regarding whether the individual presented sufficient evidence of rehabilitation and reformation, the Administrative Judge found that the individual has not resolved the security concerns related to his alcohol consumption and related mental condition.

Winners in the 2016 Red Raider Giveaway were Jackie Murphey, Toby Garcia, Alicia Valdez, Joe Rohrbach, Anthony Mariscal and Dezi Vargas. Each won a free pair of tickets to Big 12 football games in Lubbock. Congratulations to the winners! Thanks to all listeners who registered in the contests, and thanks to KPAN sponsors Gebo's, Hereford Texas Federal Credit Union and Whiteface Ford.
Some of the 600,000 solar panels at the new solar installation on 1400 acres of land just northeast of the city of Roswell, where NextEra Energy Resources has two 70-megawatt units that combined are the largest in New Mexico. The electricity generated is enough to power 40,000 homes without using any water, without any air-polluting emissions, and without any fuel cost. The facility, which came online October 6, 2016, almost quadruples the amount of solar energy on Xcel's regional electric grid.
Wind turbine blades staged on West Park Avenue in August, prior to delivery to turbine pad sites in southwestern Deaf Smith County. The components are being delivered to the 324-megawatt Broadview Energy wind park which straddles the Texas- News Mexico border, stretching from south of Broadview to southwest of Bootleg. Thirty-six of the turbines are being located in Deaf Smith County with construction value of about $122 million; the installation is a project of Pattern Energy and will sell power into the California grid.
Lane Formby of the KPAN Krew interviews Lonnie Allsup, founder and CEO of Allsup's Convenience Stores at the grand opening of the new Vega store. The complex at I-40 and US 385 includes 24 gas pumps, 12 diesel pumps and a 5000 square-foot store.

Two huge wind energy projects are producing power and selling electricity into the ERCOT grid of Texas. Several other utility-scale wind projects are on the table for Deaf Smith County.
Electric generation began in December, 2014 at Hereford Wind LLC, a 200-megawatt wind park owned by EDF and BlackRock Infrastructure. At a 48% capacity factor, the Hereford-EDF project produces 759,000 megawatt hours yearly. The project covers 15,000 acres of farm and ranchland, and consists of 50 2.0MW Vestas turbines and 54 1.85MW GE turbines. Total investment in the project is estimated at $340 million. EDF also operated several other wind parks in the region, including the Spinning Spur installations in Oldham County.
Power is also being produced at the 300-megawatt wind project named Jumbo Road in northern Castro County, which is owned by Mid-American Renewables; it borders the south edge of the EDF-Hereford wind park. The project has a long-term contract to supply energy to the city of Austin. There are now 250 wind turbines that stretch from the site of the old La Posta along the Castro-Deaf Smith County line to west of Buffalo Lake.
Lincoln Renewable Energy of Chicago was instrumental in developing both the Hereford Wind and Jumbo Road wind parks. Both of the projects connect to the grid through the Sharyland CREZ substation on FM 1259 southeast of Hereford.
Three other projects are currently on the table, with some site work and tax abatement discussions underway. Unity Wind LLC plans a 240MW project north of Dawn; that project also has 100MW of solar energy proposed for phase 2. Fremantle Energy proposes a project near Wildorado called Canadian Breaks LLC, with 29MW installed in Deaf Smith County; the company also plans to construct another substation in northeastern Deaf Smith County. The third is Broadview Energy LLC, which plans a 297-megawatt wind park that would straddle the New Mexico border and locate 40 wind turbines in southwestern Deaf Smith County.
The first phase of the Mariah project is in process in Parmer County, being developed by Scatec of Norway and Scandia Wind Southwest of Bovina; the first 2 phases of the project would total 800 megawatts.
Power produced by the projects are collected by Sharyland Utilities and transmitted by CREZ lines. The CREZ project interconnects Sharyland wind energy collection substations near Silverton, Nazareth, Hereford and White Deer to the ERCOT grid downstate. Other companies developing wind projects to interconnect through the Deaf Smith Sharyland substation include Tri-Global, EURUS, Chermac-Happy, and E.ON.

Seed Treatments
Avicta Benefits
What you can't see CAN hurt corn yield.
You might not be able to see them, but nematodes can drastically hurt corn yields. Plant-parasitic nematodes are probably the least understood of all the pests that attack corn. Unlike insects and weeds that are easily identified, these invisible below-ground pests often go undetected. What's more, when symptoms of nematode populations begin to appear, they're sometimes improperly diagnosed and often attributed to other problems.
Nematodes feed directly on the corn root, increase the probability of seedling diseases and can cause major losses in yield. Understanding how to manage this pest is critical to the success of the crop.
Read on to learn more about corn nematodes, and how Avicta® Complete Corn with Vibrance® seed treatment from Syngenta can help control these damaging pests and increase yield potential.

Big Data analytics is all about analyzing volumes of data in order to gain insights into some aspect of your business or organization and ultimately make more informed decisions. Companies and individuals constantly produce tremendous amounts of data from emails to Internet searches to financial transactions to cable TV viewing habits, and more. Each of these provides a limited view, but taken together, can paint a very vivid picture of a customer, service, process or some other situation. Underlying all of this data is always location information.
The NSA scandal of snooping into emails, videos and texts of individuals communicating through various Internet and phone networks illustrates the abuses that can arise from the collection, analysis, storage, and distribution of personal information. Digital services, by their very nature, enable automated surveillance and analysis to take place at unprecedented levels of scale, ease and lower cost.
Bottom line: What can be done to protect personal privacy, and location data privacy in particular, in a digital services and Big Data world?
First, is it important to note that every digital service, mobile application or device is a data collection opportunity, especially if the service is free (which isn't really free; you pay for it with your personal information). Second, location information is always present because everything and everyone is somewhere. Location data is derived from multiple sources—address data, customer data, mobile data, semantic data, geo-tagged photos, IP addresses, smart machines and services and more. Third, in order to deliver most digital services—especially voice, video and data—network operators and platform providers require the ability to "know" and "see" certain information such as location and the type of data that moves across the network.
Individuals, businesses, and government agencies have come to rely on these technologies for convenience, productivity, and emergency response. The ability to place a geo-fence around people, and the ability to see the movements of persons of interest is not necessarily a bad thing. It is very important when it comes to emergency response, threat detection and other vital issues. What is important is for people to understand the sensitivity of location data, or for that matter any information they transmit through digital services.
This awareness begins with understanding how the information is collected, used and shared, and how it connects other, seemingly unrelated information to create a rich portrait of their lives. This is easier said than done, however because many companies and services go to great lengths to mask the answers to these questions.
An entire data economy has evolved that preys on personal data. There are companies that have built their business models around keeping individuals in the dark about how their data is being collected, used, and shared. There are also companies that have built their business models around protecting privacy.
In order for individuals to play a role in protecting their data, transparency needs to become the normal way of operating. People should be able to know the facts so they can make informed decisions.
Companies should take the lead in being responsible stewards of the data they collect, use and share. The mindset has to shift from "getting away" with as much as possible in order to monetize people's data to one of using privacy protections as a competitive advantage. Companies should also align themselves with other companies that have a similar view on location data privacy protections. Peer pressure and public indignation can be powerful tools.
Do you know what's going on with your location data?
Do you steward location data responsibly?
Do you know your location data privacy risk score?
Are you transparent in your location data management practices?

"Numbers don't lie, but they sure can deceive." – The Globe and Mail
Some numbers are written in stone – we know there are seven days in a week, ten toes on the average pair of feet, and 70 cities that JetBlue flies to. Other numbers, though, like the world population, Elizabeth Taylor's marriages, or the number of times you think about [FILL IN BLANK WITH SOMETHING YOU THINK ABOUT A LOT] in a day, are harder to confirm because they are moving pieces with myriad variables. Among other numbers that are more difficult to pin down are some of the stats that rank airlines.
Our Chief Operating Officer Rob along with members of our leadership team met with the Department of Transportation (DOT) today to talk about the integrity of reporting in its monthly Air Travel Consumer Reports. The reports rank the major airlines on everything from baggage handling performance to customer complaints and on-time arrival rates.
We're all about honest conversations and we feel our customers deserve that same level of transparency from everyone so they can make a truly informed decision when they choose what airline to fly with. Did you know that a sizable number of the flights that most airlines sell are operated by regional carriers whose numbers do not get reported? So if you book a flight with a major airline out of New York, it's possible that you're flying with another carrier that has completely different stats that don't reflect the carrier you booked with. Bottom line is that none of us are getting the full picture.
We know we have room to improve with on-time performance, and that's something we're working on with the help of our 14,000 crewmembers on each and every flight. To combat congestion in the Northeast, where the majority of our flights operate in to or out of, we've teamed up with NextGen to lead the industry in identifying new flight corridors for the future of air travel. There are, though, some valid concerns that the numbers as they're currently reported don't tell the whole story.
On the brighter side, we know the stats that site us as the airline with the fewest number of bumped passengers is correct because we're the only guys who don't overbook our flights.
As a major airline with a small-company feel, JetBlue stands up for our customers and crewmembers, is forthcoming about our shortcomings, and fights the good fight for accurate representation.

Poll: Police Chief's reputation tarnished, not department
Recent actions by Berkeley Police Chief Michael Meehan have damaged his standing, but the department's reputation has not been overly tarnished and there is not strong demand for Meehan to apologize. These are the main findings of our "Berkeley Police Chief" Reader Poll, which we launched on Friday and kept open over the Memorial Day weekend.
We had 301 respondents to the poll, which was designed to take the pulse of the community rather than be scientific. Many of you qualified your votes with comments.
Sixty percent of you felt the January incident in which Meehan sanctioned sending ten officers to Oakland to look for his teenage son's stolen iPhone, and the March incident in which he sent an officer to a reporter's home in the middle of the night to correct a story, had sullied the Chief's reputation. Only 38% felt the department's reputation had been damaged as a result, however. Although a number of readers called on the Chief to resign, many felt there was a clear distinction between the boss and the rank and file. "It is possible to be very proud of BPD and at the same time very embarrassed of Meehan," wrote Berkeleyan in the comments. … Continue reading »
Shop Talk: The ins and outs of Berkeley businesses
WHERE IS MY BAGUETTE? The Bread Garden, which opened its doors at 2912 Domingo Avenue in November 1973, is shutting up shop. Its owner, David Morris, is finally making good on his threat to move the bakery elsewhere. He plans to open a new bakery in Paso Robles, in an old building that housed another bakery from 1923 to 1973. "One statistic sums it up," said Morris. "When I opened the bakery in 1973 I was bakery #8 in Berkeley. The last time I counted there were 38 bakeries in Berkeley. The market isn't any bigger than it was in 1973. There is intense competition for the bakery dollar." Morris said he plans to close the Claremont neighborhood bakery, home to the 19th-century baguette, cheese rolls, cinnamon swirl bread, and pizza bread, among other things, by July 1.
FURNITURE CLOSE-DOWN After 27 years at 1914 Fifth Street, right behind Spenger's, the family-owned Zentrum Furniture is shutting down its Berkeley operations. The lease is up and owner Bill Stewart is moving the store to Dublin where he is hoping the business conditions are better. Everything in the store is 20% to 60% off, said Stewart, who plans to close the doors for the final time at the end of July. … Continue reading »
Big Screen Berkeley: A Cat in Paris
Which is the real Paris — the one seen in last week's grimy child abuse epic Polisse, or the one depicted in A Cat in Paris (Une vie de chat), a delightful Academy Award-nominated animated feature opening this coming Friday, June 1, at Landmark's Shattuck Cinemas? My money's on the former, but the latter is definitely the City of Light as we imagine — or hope — it might be.
Directed by Jean-Loup Felicioli and Alain Gagnol, A Cat in Paris relates the tale of Dino, a pampered pet who lives a double life. By day, Dino is the loyal companion of mute youngster Zoe, who collects the dead lizards he brings her in an old sardine can. At night, however, Dino lets his hair down and accompanies Nico (Matthew Modine), a cat burglar who specializes in stealing valuable jewelry from under the sleeping (and sleepwalking) noses of wealthy Parisians. … Continue reading »
6-year-old boy dies of injuries from drunk driving accident
The 6-year-old boy who was in a car that hit a traffic roundabout at 64 miles per hour and rammed into a tree died of his injuries on Friday.
Xavier Chevez died at 6:30 p.m. at Children's Hospital in Oakland, according to the Alameda County Coroner's office. He had lingered seven days after the May 18 accident, but was in a coma on life support with minimal brain function.
His mother, Milanca Alicia Lopez, a UC Berkeley student who was planning to attend graduate school at UCLA this fall, died at the scene.
The driver, Jose Lumbreras, 24, of Berkeley, has been charged with drunk driving and gross vehicular manslaughter. More charges may be coming. Prosecutors said he had a blood alcohol level of 0.219%, which is more than twice the legal limit of 0.08%. … Continue reading »
Lifelong Medical Care gets $1.1 million federal grant
It was all smiles on Friday at Lifelong Medical Care's Over 60 Health Center.
Dozens of dignitaries, doctors, patients and administrators gathered to celebrate the award of a $1.1 million federal grant to the 36-year old clinic. The funds will be used to hire 60 peer educators to work with 3,200 elderly over three years to better manage their health care. The aim is to get the older patients to be proactive about their health so they don't take unnecessary trips to the emergency room.
The 60 peers will lead group classes for disabled patients and do one on one counseling. They will train adults to adopt more healthy lifestyles and encourage them to work with a group of nurses to more closely manage their own health care, according to a press release issued by Lifelong. The Center for Independent Living is a partner in the project. … Continue reading »
Op-Ed: Invest in people, close opportunity gap, says Save our pools
When school breaks up for summer, Berkeley 5th grade teacher Maggie Knutson would like to see her students embracing adventure, reading books… and swimming. In an Opionator column published this morning, Knutson argues for the resurrection of Willard Pool, the only pool in South Berkeley, and one that could serve a young diverse population with very limited access to water safety, fitness and healthy social development. As the City Council meets tonight to consider the most recent community survey on the issue, … Continue reading »
Save our pools: Invest in people, close the opportunity gap
When the last bell rings and school is out for the summer, I want my fifth graders to be reading, having adventures, and… doing cannonballs. Swimming is good, clean fun — and pools offer water safety, fitness, healthy social development (removed from phones, television and video games) and a sense of community.
Prior to 2010, there were four operational city pools serving four different communities in Berkeley. King pool in north Berkeley, West Campus pool in west Berkeley, the warm … Continue reading »

Freedom Newspapers
Numerous Clovis residents are unhappy with the city's storm-water management solutions. Particularly unsettling are the trash- and weed-collection points, euphemistically known as retention ponds, that are championed by Clovis Public Works Director Harry Wang.
Those voices will be heard and we urge you to join them, even if you favor the present methods. The issue is the topic of a study session with city leaders Thursday night, after the regular City Commission meeting. The study session should begin about 6 p.m. at the Clovis-Carver Public Library's North Annex.
Commissioner Cathy Haynes has helped spur the storm-water debate and wants public input. We applaud her effort.
As she stated via e-mail, the study session evolved out of vocal foes to the city's management solutions: "It is apparent to me that a lot of citizens are unhappy with the development of retention/detention basins for the
following reasons:
• safety;
• mosquito infestation increases the possibility for West Nile virus;
• and the basins are unattractive and can easily become an 'eye sore,' trash catcher, etc."
We would add this worry: When water does collect in a city-mandated pond, how long will it be before a child wanders into one and drowns? That isn't a scare tactic. Look at how steep many slopes are on these holes. Imagine how hard it would be for a young child or toddler in trouble in to escape from a muddy pond.
Haynes continued in her e-mail: "… Are there other ways to deal with the occasional flood waters that could occur? I have been asked by numerous citizens to revisit the (city) ordinance and look for other possible solutions for storm-water management … I invite you and anyone you know who is interested in finding a different
solution for storm-water management to come and give direction to the City Commission as to what your wishes are."
She expects Wang to make a presentation at Thursday's session, followed by one from a developer. Wang believes the ponds are ways developers should pay for drainage issues that the city faces during those rare moisture downfalls that move from rainstorm to gully-washer to toad-strangler, and back to parched land.
Developers and others argue the safety concerns aren't addressed when such rainfalls occur, thus the cost of business is needlessly higher for the private citizen.
After those points are aired, public comments will be welcomed.
Retention ponds are a pragmatic and an emotional issue. They involve questions of public health, individual safety, private interests and, as usual, your tax dollars.
We encourage anyone who cares about this matter to fill the North Annex seats and share your views.

Davis, Charlotte BSN, RN, CCRN; Wells, Rosemary RN, GEC
Charlotte Davis and Rosemary Wells are clinical nurses at Alvin C. York VA Medical Center in Murfreesboro, Tenn.
The authors have disclosed that they have no financial relationships related to this article.
WE'VE BEEN NURSES and patient educators for over 20 years, and with that comes a bit of wisdom. But that doesn't mean we ever stop learning. In a recent experience with one special patient, the roles of student and teacher were reversed.
Mrs. W, 78, came into our facility for pulmonary and physical rehabilitation after recovering from pneumonia. She also had a history of a stroke with right-sided hemiparesis and expressive aphasia. However, after many months of physical therapy and speech therapy, Mrs. W's clinical status had greatly improved.
As we assisted her out of bed for her afternoon walk, Mrs. W began to reminisce about her stay at another hospital after her stroke. "My family used to visit me almost every day," she said. "They'd even bring the grandchildren from time to time. Now that they've moved out of state, they can only visit me on holidays." She paused and closed her eyes. "On clear days if I close my eyes, it seems like only a moment ago that I saw those smiling faces," she said. "I miss those special times."
As we walked down the hall, Mrs. W continued her story. "Back when I was a homemaker, I loved to cook and eat good food with my family and friends. Now for some reason I can't seem to feed myself properly. Last time I was in the hospital, the person feeding me must've been on a timer, because she kept feeding me faster and faster, like I was on a production line in a factory. I wondered who she was, because she never introduced herself." Her eyebrows furrowed. "If she'd slowed down, maybe I would've known what I was eating or at least what it tasted like."
We moved into the hallway, her walker clicking with each step. "I remember a pitcher of ice water was brought into my room early one day. It'd been sitting there for quite a while. I wondered if anyone would offer me a nice cold drink before all the ice melted. I was so thirsty!" Her walker stopped suddenly as she asked, "You girls need a break?" We smiled and said, "No ma'am."
Mrs. W continued. "My room was at the end of a long hallway. Most of the time, I felt isolated and alone. There was no one who dropped by to say hello, to turn the channel on my TV, or to open up my window blinds. I didn't know what time, day, or even year it was anymore. I couldn't see the clock, because someone kept forgetting to put my glasses on." A pained expression flashed across her face. "Oh, I remember just wishing I could see outside of that hospital room window.
"I got lots of cards in the mail. They delivered them and neatly stacked them up on my bedside table. But no one would open them and read them to me.
"They treated me like I was some inanimate object, but I wasn't. I wanted to tell them all that I was a mother, grandmother, aunt, friend, and church member. I wanted them to understand that I was someone who loved deeply and was loved in return. But when my mouth opened, no words would come out."
In that moment, this graceful, wise patient had no idea how her words affected us. She'd become our teacher and taught us an important lesson. Unrushed small acts of human kindness and empathy can be conveyed in a single moment. We discussed how Mrs. W's hospital experience could have been so vastly different if only one nurse had taken a little more time with her.
We asked Mrs. W for permission to share her story with the nursing management and staff of the facility that she was recently transferred from to ensure that other patients wouldn't have similar experiences. She quickly agreed.
Once the information was shared, the nursing staff immediately began to implement an action plan for patients suffering with communication dysfunction.1–3 The action plan included a lower nurse-patient ratio and enhanced visual communication boards that allow patients with communication dysfunction to point at words, phrases, and pictures to convey their wants and needs. The staff reported the action plan was a success as their patient satisfaction scores dramatically improved.
As nurses, we often become task oriented. We can forget that the patient in room 221 is someone's mother, brother, father, sister, child, or friend. These patients have a voice even when they can't speak. We need to transform the nursing care that we provide to meet each patient's physical, spiritual, cultural, social, and emotional needs. Our patients' voices need to be heard so we can provide truly holistic nursing care.

Build Exercise Into Your Schedule
by Greg Landry, M.S.
Related Articles
|Exercise on the Job
Our daily lives no longer require the physical activity that our ancestors' lives did. Their day was filled with the physical activity required years ago to run a home and probably a farm. that daily activity kept them lean and fit.
Today, most people have sedentary jobs and do a minimal amount of physical work around the house. Thus, we've had to develop "artificial activity".. exercise. But, the ironic thing is that we will avoid as much work as possible not realizing that it's "exercise."
for example, my yard is big enough that many people would use a riding lawn mower to cut the grass. But wouldn't it be silly for me to ride a lawn mower rather than push one and then go out and walk or jog for exercise? Get the exercise while doing the work. Don't try to make the work easier.
A while back I helped a friend tear down an old shed and we worked pretty hard at it. He's a daily exerciser, yet he complained about having to do this work and was always looking for ways to make it easier - like moving the wood with a truck rather than carrying it a few yards. Carrying wood is great exercise!
I think we've forgotten the best "exercise" of all is the original "exercise".. work! Think about ways that you can incorporate physical work into your daily life. You're getting the work done and getting some exercise at the same time!
- plant a garden with a shovel instead of a tiller
- rake your leaves
- scrub your floors
- wash your car
- clean your house
- walk as many places as you can
- push your lawn mower
- sweep
- shovel snow
- swing a hammer
- cut some wood with a hand saw
- chop with an ax rather than a chain saw
- stand instead of sitting
- park way out in the parking lot at Wal-Mart and walk to the store
- climb flights of stairs, etc.
Look for the difficult way to do things, the way the requires the most physical effort!
Also, don't forget that you can get physical activity "playing." Get out and run around with your kids, play some full court basketball, play tag, ride your bike, dance, etc. If you can create enough additional activity every day through working and playing to burn an additional 300 calories, you'll lose 2.5 pounds of fat per month - and you'll tone your muscles.
We obviously don't have the need to do as much physical work as our ancestors did, but do as much as you can and then supplement it with "artificial work".. exercise.

Party favors are sometimes difficult for me– I don't want to send home a bunch of plastic, useless items that will just create clutter and end up in a landfill. I also don't want to spend a ton of money because parties are expensive enough without lots of extra costs from items like favors. I do love party favors though- and rarely like throwing a party without sending guests home with something.
For the little man's town-themed party I went with edible snacks "for the road."I got a lot if great suggestions and ideas from Twitter and Facebook however and thought I would share some of those ideas and other ideas that crossed my mind for a town-themed birthday party.
**Photos from Portland lifestyle photographer Macey Snelson of Moments by Macey (formerly Motormouth Studios). To see more Town Themed Party ideas check out the town themed party pictures and town themed party food idea posts!
snacks for the road. so clever!
brooke lyn recently posted…house hunters gone wrong
Very clever! I love the "for the road" party favor idea. Great job!
[…] just had so many different photos that I wanted to split this up into posts about the decor, food, favors, and activities. Of course, I'll be back again later today with free set of printables from […]

After all the madness fighting alongside Nazi's and the Japanese, the Girls Generation take it easy to do some mothering on their new TV show. There are 6 parts, so be sure to continue after the jump. In the meantime, the cover of the new mini-album has been corrected to much relief of fans. More »

Netizens In Korea with their keen eye were quick to notice the cover had Japanese-like war planes along with Nazi crosses.
