Communication and Interpersonal Skills in Nursing
SAGE, Jun 13, 2011 - Medical - 168 pages
The importance of good communication and interpersonal skills has been recognised in the new NMC Standards for pre-registration nursing education (2010). The new edition of this well-received book has been revised to cover the new Standards and is now aimed specifically at first year students. New case studies help students understand how to use skills in practice and the theory of communication has been made easier to understand through scenarios and theory summaries. Key topics covered include: underpinning concepts; building therapeutic relationships; using a variety of communication methods; compassion and dignity; communicating in different environments; and culture and diversity issues.

The incomparable Sir Elton John is set to release his 33rd studio album in 2016. That is truly amazing. Wonderful Crazy Night is due to release February 5th 2016 and the first single Looking Up comes out tomorrow. John is well known for some of the classics like Candle In The Wind, Goodbye Yellow Brick Road, Saturday Nights Alright For Fighting and several Disney tunes including the Lion King soundtrack. In over five decades of making music the man has sold more than 300 million albums, has had more than fifty top 40 hits, and seven consecutive #1 albums in the US.
Sir Elton John was born in 1947 as Reginald Dwight and learned to play piano as a kid, he formed his first musical group in 1962 named Bluesology. Without a doubt the man has had a huge impact on popular music and continues to make waves even in the new century. We're looking forward to hearing what Sir Elton is going to bring with Wonderful Crazy Night, if he stays true to form… it should be something spectacular.
What do you think of Elton John's upcoming release? Something you're looking forward to? Are you all in and buying on release day or giving it a few songs to sink in? Let us know in the comments below or on Google+, Facebook and Twitter.Source: Newsday

Highway A1A
Published: February 15, 1987
To the Editor: My father started coming to Florida around 1904. I myself have known the area around Melbourne intimately since 1925. Therefore, I was very interested in Henry Leifermann's article ''Florida's Grand Old Highway'' (Travel, Dec. 14). However, it is inaccurate to say of A1A: ''It was called Dixie Highway then . . . and it was the original U.S. 1 in Florida.''
U.S. 1 - on the mainland - existed back in 1904, but there were no roads on the barrier island. My father and friends would come by boat from the mainland for a day's outing. At the pier (or the riverside of the island) was a railroad handcart and iron rails, which crossed the island to the ocean side. One put one's gear in the cart and pushed it over. It was all wild sand dunes and a few houses, served by the same handcart. But no roads.
U.S. 1 was what was called Dixie Highway. It was so called as late as the 40's and 50's. In fact, for a great part of Brevard and Indian River Counties, it is still so named. Only within the city limits of Melbourne is it known as Harbor City Boulevard.
A good deal of A1A wasn't built until after World War II, including the bridge over Sebastian Inlet. Back in the 20's and 30's the road south of our house in Melbourne Beach (a separate municipality from Melbourne) going down to Sebastian Inlet was nothing more than two wheel tracks across the sand dunes and through the scrub palmetto.
Much of the growth of this area, including Cocoa, Cocoa Beach and Indialantic, is the result of the buildup of the space center in the late 40's and early 50's. Until then, this part of Florida was really undeveloped. DIANNE W. BLACKWOOD Melbourne Beach, Fla.

It was the scene with Mumen Rider, am I right?
Yes, of course. Everyone knows he can't win, but in that briefest of moments, you actually think he can. Even Saitama praises him for it.
Being a true hero isn't about being strong, but about wanting to help people. ;)
A C-class hero with an S-class heart. It helps that he looks like IRL me, too, and I've actually been in a situation similar to that. There was a bully in school that no one dared stand up to, so I did even though I was too weak to beat him. But everyone cheered me on to the point that someone who could actually do something came to help.

Not all of Arches National Park are the pretty arches that you see so many pictures of.
A lot of it is just plain bizarre rock formations like these in the Firey Furnace.
IT is just really neat to see this stuff up real close.

It would be really easy to get lost in there. This is why we had a guide.

I have the great pleasure of introducing you to Kathleen Reed of the Jones Family Matters blog. Kathleen describes her blog as follows, "Jones Family Matters is a vehicle for sharing the family stories and pictures with my immediate and extended family. As we are the product of a diverse lineage, English, Irish and German lines are discussed."
How Kathleen Got Started in Genealogy
Kathleen started working on her genealogy and family history 10 years ago following a hip replacement. Having limited mobility, Kathleen's daughter suggested that she use her time to " . . . organize the records my mother left me."
Kathleen comes from a very close-knit family, and being the oldest, she was in the best position to personally know many of those from earlier generations. Kathleen realized that her younger siblings did not have the same experience as she had had. In addition, Kathleen wanted a vehicle for sharing many of the pictures and artifacts she had with other family members.
Kathleen's Family and her Blog
Kathleen's family very much appreciates her blog. Most of them are regular readers: "I've dealt with a couple of sensitive issues after checking to see if others would be offended. I've often featured living members of my family with their permission. I've also reached several members of my family (unknown to me) when they search on their own names and realize we have a common ancestor."
How Kathleen Follows The Rest of Us
Kathleen follows about 30 blogs using Google Reader. She also has blogs tied to her Blogger dashboard. Kathleen receives about two or three blog updates via her email. On a typical day, Kathleen will read from about ten blogs.
Since Kathleen linked her blog to GeneaBloggers, she has discovered many more readers. Kathleen has several favorite blogs she likes to follow and some of those bloggers have become regular readers of her own blog. Kathleen has found other bloggers to be very helpful in sharing their techniques and suggestions with her.
Kathleen's Thoughts on Blogging
Kathleen decided to create her own blog when she was learning to use blog and Wiki technology as part of work she was doing with teachers who were trying to incorporate technology in their classrooms. Kathleen soon realized just how valuable the technology could be for sharing information about her family.
After taking the plunge, Kathleen had a concern that she would not be able to handle the technology, "I never worried about whether or not my family read it because I felt like my primary goal was writing it for future descendants. It has already exceeded all of my expectations."
When Kathleen started blogging she was un-comfortable with the software. She struggled at times getting pictures to be placed where she wanted them along with other related issues.
After about a year of blogging, another concern was that she might run out of materials because she had yet to write about many of her known ancestors. Kathleen has since discovered that there are always topics that can be discussed. She does get a bit uncomfortable when writing about topics that are not totally in alignment with her stated purpose.
Seeing other bloggers use the term "cousin bait" Kathleen decided to "adopt" this term also. "Blogging has enriched my life because it's given me the chance to reconnect with cousins, aunts, and uncles and to make numerous connections with 2nd, 3rd, and 4th cousins I had not known previously. Blogging has me living in a strange world. Many of the people that I talk to, write to and communicate with (including you, Gini) I'VE NEVER MET! What a strange and wonderful world I find myself living in!"
Kathleen's blog title comes from her birth name, "Jones" and being a part of the 5th generation in Cincinnati. "I liked 'Family Matters' because of the double meaning of the word 'matters.' I was surprised, and happy, when I discovered that the name was still available."
What Kathleen Loves The Most About Genealogy
"I love writing about my family because it forces me to 'do my research.' My research has taken me in directions I never anticipated. There were many women in my family who were left to raise several children with few resources following the deaths of their husbands. I had far more ancestors involved in the Civil War than I thought. There were several marriages across ethnic lines such as Irish and German. I had one direct ancestor who became 'insane' and another forced to support herself as a prostitute. Many of these facts were not known to me when I began."
Kathleen's Time Capsule Message
"I always said that I came from a 'long line of strong women.' The longer I research my ancestors, the more I realize what a wonder it is that all of the stars aligned correctly resulting in my very existence. I realize how blessed we are that we do not have to deal with the diseases and poverty of our ancestors. I would wish that we, as a society, would consider our descendants and think about ways that we can leave them a better world – instead of the world I am seeing right now."

(U.S.) Salmonella Outbreaks Traceable to Mail-Order Chicks
Expand Messages
World Poultry, May 31, 2012
The New England Journal of Medicine has published a study linking several US Salmonella outbreaks in the last eight years to a mail-order hatchery, Bloomberg reports.
The US Centers for Disease Control said that at least 316 people across 43 states has fallen ill due to salmonella infections traceable to the baby chicks sent from a mail-order hatchery. The mail-order hatchery industry, which is reporting record sales due to a boom of interest in raising backyard flocks and urban chickens, is becoming an important unwitting transmitter of sick birds.
The hatchery in question, not specifically named in the report, ships about four million birds per year. The hatchery has since taken advice and improved its biosecurity measures.
The added danger of backyard flocks and urban chickens is their increased exposure to wild animals, which could increase the dispersion of an outbreak.
The study in the NEJM studied the Salmonella outbreak that raged from 2004 to 2011, eight years spread across several states, sickening a broad age group (one month to 86 years). The study reports that the median age of those that fell ill, however, was four years.
The article is available at NEJM: http://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NEJMoa1111818

You need to post the link without the image tags around the link. That's what's messing it up. It still only takes you to the homepage though. Some sites do that. Try uploading direct from your PC instead of a link.

Diversifying and Unifying the U.S.-China Relations: Lessons Learned from the U.S. Media's China Coverage
The U.S.-China relation has diversified into many areas of cooperation as well as differences in recent years. But understanding one in terms of the other is still difficult. The remoteness and the mystery of each other's cultures and systems often contribute to misperception and misunderstanding. Vital economic interests and the understanding that this relation affects not only the two nations but the world in many ways have persuaded the two governments to work hard to prevent a total collapse in the relation. However, crisis happens and damages the relation from time to time. Diversity as a concept and slogan has been very popular in the United States in recent years. However, diversity has often been superficially promoted for political reason rather than for substance or real change. When it comes to the U.S.-China relation, U.S. media's China coverage encourages the public perceiving and thinking about China to develop particular understandings with their repeated frame or recurring themes. The U.S. media influence how the public see China by highlighting and glamorizing certain views over others, and causing the public to see Chinese government and the Chinese people through a narrow lens. American reporters are influenced by the current politics and ideologies as well as social and political incentives to support their own government to oppose an "enemy" such as China. Demonizing China as a country and romanticizing the Chinese as a people have been popular in the United States. As a result, honesty and objectivity of their China stories are often compromised. This paper attempts to analyze the U.S. media's China coverage and point out that the U.S. media's China coverage need to be diverse and balanced to keep up with a diverse reality of the U.S.-China relation and to help contribute to the unity of the bilateral U.S.-China relation.

Concentrating on Salt Lake Community College dental assisting, for example, you may gain an advantage in job recruiting on-campus. Check with the dentistry department for course registration deadlines, and dental assistant program requirements. Please use the form above to request admissions info for Salt Lake Community College.
In dentistry, there are three fast-growing employment fields. Dental assistants perform many tasks, ranging from providing patient care, to record-keeping and scheduling appointments. Dental lab technicians construct, or repair, dentures and prosthetics. Dental hygienists clean teeth, examine patients for signs of oral diseases such as gingivitis, and apply sealants and fluorides to help protect teeth. They must also learn to take and develop dental x-rays. The median annual wage for dental hygienists was $52,330 in 2017, while dental assistants average $37,500 per year. Employment of dental assistants and hygienists is projected to grow 19% in the coming decade.
Dental hygienists need an associates degree in dental hygiene. The programs typically take 3 years to complete, and offer laboratory, clinical, and classes in anatomy, physiology, nutrition, radiography, pathology, and periodontics. All states require dental hygienists to be licensed, although requirements vary by state. The Commission on Dental Accreditation, part of the American Dental Association, has accredited more than 300 dental hygiene programs. Beyond major requirements within the dentistry department, you may consider Paier College of Art MRI program as a complementary elective to your primary course of study.

i counted up to 103 before, then i bit it, and i stopped counting my pop sickle licks thanks to that commercial. >.< Its harder then it looks to reach the center of my tootsie pop without biting it!!
Hopefully, I would like to meet other programmers, and learn from each other, and grow into the industry. That way we can progress with one another. Also help any other person I can to the best of my abilities.
I would like to networking with people in the industry, or aspiring to be in the industry. That way I will be better connected to the people around me who are in the same field as me.
Currently I am a Devry University student, studying Game Simulation Programming (GSP). and I am nearing my graduation, and looking for anyway to expand, and get my name out their. I am also studying some other programming languages on the side, learning how to use the Unity Game Engine, and working on a side project, that I hope to use on my future portfolio to be prepared, and ready for the video game industry.
Video game programming. its still rather broad, and im still experimenting on what I prefer to do, but so far, I would say its programming characters. I love having the power to create, and control their movements, and giving them new abilities that react, and move smoothly to what I want it to do.
Hi everyone My name is Alex, and I am studying to be a video game programmer, and enjoying every second of it. It really is a fun, and rewarding career, and I hope too meet like minded people who hold the same passion as I do, as well as network.

Good work-life balance, other employees are nice (in 6 reviews)
Good salary and benefits, including two work from home days (for IT) (in 4 reviews)
Little to no interest in employees (in 3 reviews)
Founded in 1976 - management style remains stuck in the 1970's (in 3 reviews)
Havent been in a while but the benefits are good if you dont mind working for minimum wage. Your given a great pep talk whn your hired.
They have you work awful hours and torment the same people over and over again. Then the commission is never obtainable (I made first payout once, only like $200) and you make all this money for this company and no commission check. Your like a hamster in a wheel. All lies and stories of it's gonna get better and they just hire more people. Horrible experience glad I'm out of there
Advice to Management
Pay more and make commission goals real!!!!
I have been working at Interval International full-time (More than 8 years)
Somewhat stable. Some departments have better management than others.
Retro mentality. Lacks positive leadership. Morale is low. Call center employees are treated like inmates.
Advice to Management
This company needs an entire reorganization. Small company mentality trying to operate as a corporation.
I worked at Interval International full-time (Less than a year)
No pros. Truly bad situation. Try anywhere else before going there.
Extremely disorganized: took weeks for them to provide the tools necessary to do the job, work "plan" was looking busy, and reworking constantly. Amazingly unprofessional: Staff crossing the lines of sexism, racism, and age discrimination trying to be "funny". Management enabling rather than curtailing all of the above.
Advice to Management
Do the right thing.
First two years were excellent. Highly autonomous. Commission-based sales reps require flexibility, and management understood that well.
New management valued rigidity over employee morale. Morale suffered, commission-based sales suffered, reps got desperate, clients felt pressured, service suffered, revenue plummeted, culture crashed.
Advice to Management
Understand that your previous experience is not a cookie cutter mold that you can apply to every new job you get after running one into the ground.
I have been working at Interval International (More than 5 years)
There are absolutely no Pros at this company!
Overall this company is horrible!
Advice to Management
Needs new Management!
I worked at Interval International full-time
Work from home two days out of the week.
Decent medical insurance.
Slack. A slackers dream job.
Poor pay.
Poor work environment.
No professionalism within teams and management.
Low moral within the IT team.
No career advancement opportunities or education support.
Poor management. Especially in IT and Marketing.
Very behind in implementing modern web technologies and design practices.
Management is poor and do not understand basic design principles or standards.
Cannot challenge the status quo. Not welcomed.
Waterfall shop. Not a true agile shop.
Advice to Management
Trust in your design team and design experts.
Empower the Web Design Manager and team.
Grow balls.
Design team should make the final decision when it comes to the design and experience. Not anyone else.
Give management leadership classes.

The call center management staff and many of the employees were great to work with, many were passionate about what they did and committed to doing their best.
If call center employees used intermittent FMLA, it dropped their ranking so they got worse schedules, which is a violation of FMLA to punish workers for exercising this right. Interval supposedly stopped doing that in 2014. They also had dozens of IT and Finance Contractors whom there were no records they submitted and passed background checks or drug checks. There were no records these people were even who they claimed to be since there were no records their id was provided, no picture taken for their security access ID badge or their vehicle information. However, minimum wage employees with little to no access to confidential information submitted to all these screenings.
Most concerning to me is the fact that many tourism and hospitality customers may not realize that IILG manages the back office and therefore customer data for various subsidiaries and partners that may include Trading Places International (TPI), Hyatt Residence Club, Aqua-Aston Hospitality, Vacation Resorts International, VRI Europe, Hyatt Vacation Ownership (HVO), the Hyatt Residence Club, Hyatt Vacation Ownership, other affiliates of Hyatt Hotels Corporation as well as other participants in their timeshare and cruise exchange programs. This potentially exposes hospitality service providers and millions of their customers to data breach without their slightest level of awareness. For example, who would have the resources and perspective to link burglaries of the families of these various providers while they travel? Would investigators be able to identify a pattern and source or would they simply conclude occurrences were unrelated?
Raising concerns and potential legal and ethical violations to senior executives results in termination.
Advice to Management
Value ethics and hold executives accountable. Value employees. Comply with laws and don't retaliate against workers that raise legitimate concerns. Don't allow any "leader" to violate the policies they are suppose to be enforcing, micromanage to the extreme degree, ridicule workers publicly.

They have deep pockets for projects - but just not any projects that you recommend or need.
You are a number. Simple as that. They have no issues about cutting pay, overtime, vacation time or any other unethical but legal thing they can get thier hands on. All systems are convoluted and complex. Ordering any I.T. equipment takes at least 1-2 weeks to be approves and even longer to be shipped. Pay has been cut - for me personally - 30% for the same position, OT removed, benefits cut to minimal and you have at least 3 people to report to. All who which dont speak to each other - so get ready to explain things 5-10 times over and over. The CEO - is a terrible liar. You can clearly see right thru his fake smile whenever you talk to him. Be very weary of its practices and its top level execs. Every single promise we got from Execs has been broken, with no remorse.
If you currently work for this company - ever
Advice to Management
Treat your employee's better. Without them you wont have a business to even run. We are not just employee numbers that affect the bottom line, but we are the ones who are actually doing the work to allow you fat cats to keep getting your 6 digit bonus'.
Helpful (2)
- health benefits
- new changes
- learn about industry
- need to modernize
- need younger generation
I worked at Interval International (More than 10 years)
I really can't of any positives
Little to no interest in employees

Care about the people working for you

Fasting :
Baba Ji says the definition of fasting means detoxification of our body, mind and soul. We should have Fast once a week. During the fasting, we should not starve our body. We should eat raw (UN-cooked) food instead of cooked food. If we eat any other (non-whole wheat) cooked food, we are cheating our body. Baba ji says we should be eating only fruits that day which helps getting rid of deceases in our body. We should have all the family members eat fruit and have celebration with Bhajans and meditation etc. so that our mind and soul can also be purified.

Although a predominantly Hindu island, Bali has communities of other religions. During Christmas time, Christian Balinese gather in their masses to unique churches that blend traditional Balinese architectural features. Among the most notable Balinese Protestant and Catholic communities are located in the villages of Palasari and Blimbingsari in West Bali. There are also other notable churches and cathedrals around the Denpasar and Nusa Dua area.

The Steps to Cleaning Your Vintage Rhinestone Jewelry
Rhinestone jewelry emits sparkle and shine, but vintage pieces purchased from stores or online can sometimes benefit from a little cleaning. Properly caring for and cleaning this type of jewelry can help to restore luster to the rhinestones, returning them to their former glory. Cleaning can be tricky, however, because artists make the rhinestone jewelry by adhering flatback rhinestones with epoxy glue to backing, and improper care can damage the rhinestones by scratching them or dulling the finish, as well as loosen how securely the rhinestones stay in place. Therefore, it remains essential to properly clean rhinestones to keep them sparkling and to avoid causing damage to these beautiful works of art.
Types of Rhinestone Jewelry
Local antique and secondhand stores, as well as Internet outlets like eBay, often offer an assortment of vintage rhinestone jewelry. Many types of vintage rhinestone jewelry exist, including earrings, necklaces, and other stunning pieces.
|Hair Jewelry
Ponytail holders
Bridal combs
|Chandelier earrings
Dangle earrings
Rhinestone chains
|Other jewelry
When purchasing vintage orantique rhinestone jewelry, check the condition to look for missing or loose stones. If you shop online and cannot determine the condition, ask the seller.
Keeping Rhinestone Jewelry Clean
Two things cause rhinestones to sparkle: the foil backing on the back of the rhinestones, which reflects light; and the facets cut into the rhinestones that refract light. Many factors can dull the rhinestones and their settings, including skin oils, environmental substances, dust, cosmetics, water, and personal care products, so keeping them clean is important. Fortunately, you can keep your vintage rhinestone jewelry clean by storing it in a closed, moisture-free container lined with a soft material, and you should also avoid storing the rhinestones with materials that can scratch the surface, such as hard gemstone jewelry.
3 Key Steps to Cleaning Vintage Rhinestone Jewelry
Even when you take appropriate precautions, rhinestone jewelry can eventually grow dull without regular cleaning. Therefore, it is advisable to clean pieces every 3 to 6 months, or sooner if needed. To clean your jewelry, work in three steps using several simple tools, including paper towels, a soft natural fiber brush (a clean makeup brush works well), cotton swabs, compressed air, and isopropyl alcohol. You should not use water or harsh detergents, as they can damage the foil backing that adds sparkle to the rhinestones. Water and other substances may tarnish the foil, which removes the sparkle from the rhinestones.
1. Remove the Dust
Begin by preparing a place to work by lining a clean, flat surface with several absorbent paper towels and lay the jewelry on the towels, face-up. Using the compressed air, blow any dust or debris away using a gentle back and forth motion while expelling bursts of air, and then turn the piece over and repeat on the back side. Next, gently brush the back of the piece with a clean, soft-bristled makeup brush or paintbrush to remove any remaining dust. Using a gentle, sweeping back-and-forth motion, turn the piece over and brush the rhinestone side as well. Do not wipe the rhinestone with a towel, because this can cause any remaining particles of dust or debris to scratch the surface of the rhinestone.
2. Remove Dulling Dirt
To remove any dulling dirt, put a small amount of isopropyl alcohol in a container and dip a cotton swab in the alcohol. Then, dab the swab across the surface of the jewelry, including metal and rhinestone surfaces, removing dirt and debris and using the dry side of the swab to dab away any moisture that remains. Replace the swab as necessary and turn the jewelry over, repeating the process on the other side. Next, use the cotton swab to dab in the spaces between the rhinestones and clean away dust and debris from each opening.
3. Dry the Jewelry
If any dampness remains, gently blot the jewelry with the dry paper towels. In addition, make sure that the rhinestones dry completely before you wear them or return them to storage.

Heartbeat Monitors
Sunday, December 2, 2007
In a single week, the stock market managed both to rouse fear and inspire hope.
On Monday, the Dow Jones industrial average plunged more than 200 points, sliding past the 10 percent threshold marking an official correction from its October peak. Talk of recession intensified. But two days later, the market rallied, soaring more than 300 points to its biggest one-day percentage gain in at least four years.
The wild swings agitated investors. Should they sell their stocks? Should they move to less risky bonds, certificates of deposit and money-market funds? Or should they sit tight and ride out the turbulence?
"When everything is uncertain, you just don't know where to put your money," said Michael Fekete, a Northwest D.C. resident and technical editor who has about $350,000 in stocks, bonds and other investments. "Where do you hide?"
Wall Street is bracing for an even rockier period of further deterioration in credit conditions and the housing market. The dollar remains weak and oil prices high. Poor corporate earnings are also dogging the economy. A second consecutive quarter of declining profits could lead to an "earnings recession," which some analysts say could prompt staff cuts, driving up the unemployment rate and further dampening consumer spending.
"These times are very volatile, so it is scary . . .," said Rita Cheng, a financial adviser at Ameriprise Financial Services in Bethesda. "Investors have every right to be nervous. The advice that I give to clients is you don't want to panic."
Still, Fekete, one of Cheng's clients, recently dumped some poor performers from his portfolio. He is not ruling out more changes but said, "I think we're just going to sit tight right now and see how that does."
He's not the only investor doing some serious soul-searching these days.
Money has flowed out of domestic stock mutual funds each month since May, according to AMG Data Services, an investment research firm specializing in mutual funds. So far in November, about $10.6 billion has fled such funds, compared with $3.6 billion in October. The money shifted mostly into international stock funds, especially those investing in emerging markets, said Robert Adler, president of AMG.
Bespoke Investment Group provides another window into investors' psyche with its research on analysts' ratings of stocks in the Standard & Poor's 1500 index. Large-capitalization stocks -- those with the highest stock market value -- had the highest percentage of analyst "buy" ratings, at 49 percent, and the lowest percentage of "sell" ratings, at 6 percent. Financials, which include lenders suffering from the subprime mortgage crisis, had the least amount of buy ratings, at 36 percent, while energy stocks, buoyed by rising oil prices, had the highest, at 54 percent.
"These are the times when investors ask: 'Do I turn left? Do I turn right? Do I stand still? Do I jump? What do I do?' " said Georges Yared, chief investment officer of Yared Investment Research. His answer: "You have to go back to the basic fundamentals. For any stock I own, why do I own it? What is the price target? Defend the price target and defend 'Why do I own it?' "
In other words, how do you go about protecting your portfolio when the dreaded R-word is being bandied about so much?
