In addition, downloading, installing, or using certain mobile services may be prohibited or restricted by your carrier, and not all mobile services may work with all carriers or devices.
Site Accounts are constituent parts of the Site. As editor of both the Site and User Accounts, Vinted may place the same information as on the Site on the Site Accounts.
Vinted is a venue
Vinted acts as a venue to allow Users who comply with Vinted's policies to offer, sell, buy, exchange certain goods and communicate privately and publicly. Vinted is not directly involved in the transaction between Sellers and Purchaser. As a result, Vinted has no control over the quality, safety, morality or legality of any aspect of the Items listed, the truth or accuracy of the listings, the ability of Sellers to sell Items or the ability of Purchasers to pay for items. Vinted does not pre-screen users or the content or information provided by users. Vinted cannot ensure that a Purchaser or Seller will actually complete a transaction. Consequently, Vinted does not transfer legal ownership of items from the Seller to the Purchaser. Vinted cannot guarantee the true identity, age, and nationality of a User. Vinted encourages you to communicate directly with potential transaction partners through the tools available on the Site.
You agree that Vinted is a venue and as such is not responsible or liable for any content, for example, data, text, information, usernames, graphics, images, photographs, profiles, audio, video, items, and links posted by you, other Users, or outside parties on Vinted. You use the Vinted service at your own risk.
Placement of Items and Catalogues
The Seller, when uploading an Item into the appropriate Catalogue, must complete the Item placement questionnaire and: describe the Item as exhaustively as possible; indicate defects of the Item, if any; indicate whether or not a warranty is provided for the Item; indicate warranty terms, if any; and indicate the Item price. If the Seller does not indicate Item payment and Delivery conditions, this means the Purchaser is entitled to make an offer to the Seller on the Item payment and Delivery conditions. Only clothes, footwear and accessories may be uploaded to the Catalogue; other goods are not allowed to be subject of a Transaction.
Items uploaded to the Catalogues must be both described in the Item placement questionnaire and photographed. When uploading an Item to a Catalogue, at least one good quality photo of the Item must be placed next to the Item description. It is prohibited to upload photos found on the Internet and uploaded photos must reflect the real quality and external appearance of the Item and show the presence of defects on the Item. Assessment of photo quality is by nature subjective and is at Vinted's entire discretion. There is no limit on the quantity of Items that may be uploaded to the Site Catalogues; however, it is prohibited to upload the same Item more than once.
Once the Purchaser and the Seller agree on the Item sold and the price, the Purchaser is required to pay for the ordered Item pursuant to the payment terms set forth below under "Payment and Shipping," and to accept the Item if it complies with the description provided by the Seller. The Seller, by uploading the Item, is deemed to represent and confirm that the Item complies with the description Seller provides and that such description is complete. The placement of Items in the Site Catalogues is free. The Seller, after uploading the Item, shall be entitled to remove it at any time unless he/she is a professional seller. An offer to sell may be retracted at any time prior to its acceptance, but not after.
Items on the Site are purchased and sold by making the Transaction directly between the Purchaser and the Seller and only they are responsible for such Transaction. Except for Vinted's administrative role regarding payment and shipping, as described below, Vinted is not a party to, does not participate in, and bears no responsibility or liability for, the making or performance of, or otherwise in connection with, such Transaction.
Users are also entitled to exchange/swap Items. In this case, Users make the exchange Transaction directly where Vinted is not a party to, does not participate in, and bears no responsibility or liability for, the making or performance of, or otherwise in connection with, such exchange Transaction.
Vinted provides Payment and Shipping services to facilitate Transactions. Sellers offering items for financial consideration may not refuse to Transact with Purchasers to avoid using the Payment and Shipping services made available by Vinted. Sellers are prohibited from voiding a Transaction with the aim of performing the same Transaction without using the Payment and Shipping services, be it with the same Purchaser or with another Purchaser. A Purchaser and a Seller may, prior to Transacting, mutually agree to opt out of the Payment and Shipping services offered by Vinted and mutually agree payment and shipping methods at their discretion and also at their own risk.
While Vinted is not party to the Transactions, we aim to facilitate a unique and friendly experience for all Users. If a Purchaser receives the wrong item, one that is faulty, fake or significantly not as described by the Seller, said Purchaser should notify our Community Support team using our Help Center within 2 days of Item delivery. We will hold payments if they have been made via our Payment Services while we encourage Seller and Purchaser to find an amicable solution. We cannot guarantee that such a solution may be found. If a refund is made, it will be for the Item value only, unless the shipping fees have not yet been incurred.
Every User and Visitor, before using the Forum, must read and agree to comply with the Forum regulations here .
Both Users and Visitors may read the Forum, whereas the ability to post messages to the Forum is reserved to Users. Users, after registering in the Forum, may create themes using their user names or anonymously. Vinted shall not be responsible if, due to the User's or any third party's actions, or any actions beyond Vinted's reasonable control, the identity of a User who posted a message or theme is made public.
With respect to the use of the Forum, Vinted strictly prohibits, and you agree not to engage in: the use of swear words; insulting other Users and Visitors; incitement to crimes and offenses; discrimination, hate speech or violent language of any kind, including such language related to race, ethnic origin or nationality; false or malicious news; libel or slander or other defamatory allegations; offenses against individual privacy; the uploading of indecent materials or the use of the Forum in any matter that is inconsistent with applicable laws or such as to injure Vinted's business reputation.
Further, it is strictly prohibited in the Forum to publish advertising messages, place links to other websites, offer goods for purchase and sale, announce or organize auctions for Transactions of Items, or perform other commercial actions. Advertisements regarding personal Items to be sold and information about any services may be placed only in the special column referred to as "Advertisement Corner".
Private Messages
If a User or a Visitor sends Private Messages to another User, he or she must ensure that he or she is not sending: (i) messages or information of an advertising character; (ii) spam or content disseminating viruses or swarms; (iii) mass messages of any other type (e.g., when one message is sent to more than five Users or when the same message is copied and sent to the Users who have not requested such information); (iv) messages containing texts or content that are unlawful or that would otherwise contravene any applicable laws, common moral precepts or public order, or messages that would be insulting; or (v) messages that harm, attempt to harm or may harm other Users, this Site or Vinted's business or reputation, or would be otherwise in conflict with these Terms and Conditions.
Feedback Exchange Among Users
A User is entitled to write comments about another User, only if a Transaction has been made between them. In all cases, the feedback of one User related to another should be just, honest and respectful. Lies and insults against each other and the publication of false information through any of the Services provided on this Site or otherwise by Vinted is strictly prohibited.

Vinted is entitled at any time to publish on the Site new short-term or long-term proposals, competitions, games or sweepstakes (collectively, "Contests") complying with U.S. law, to propose new Services, and to amend these Terms and Conditions accordingly. In the case of inconsistencies between these Terms and Conditions and special terms and conditions published on the Site regarding any of the foregoing, such as regulations, instructions or descriptions about such Contests, the latter shall prevail.
Subject to the terms set forth in the Privacy Policy , Vinted shall have the right to send Users email messages, using the email address provided by Users at the time of registration, regarding the Services and any new proposed services, or any other relevant matters that in Vinted's view may assist in enhancing Users' experience using the Services.

Vinted will (through a third party credit card processor) store your credit card information. Vinted will verify your credit card information (including expiration date and billing address), but will not charge your credit card unless you conduct an activity through the Site that requires your credit card to be charged. By agreeing to pay for a Transaction with your credit card, you authorize Vinted to charge your credit card.
For Transactions using Vinted's payment and shipping services, following confirmation of a Transaction through the Service and payment of the required amount by Purchaser, Vinted will notify the Seller and send to the Seller's address indicated in the Seller's account information a pre-paid shipping label for Seller to ship the purchased Item to the Purchaser. The Seller must ship the purchased Item using the shipping label (and corresponding shipping method) required by Vinted within three days after receipt of such shipping label. Upon receipt of Item Confirmation, Vinted will credit Seller's account in an amount equal to the purchase price received from the Purchaser. Purchaser must confirm his acceptance within 2 days after receipt of the purchased Item. If Purchaser does not respond within such time period, the purchased Item will be deemed accepted. Any funds credited to Seller's account may be redeemed by Seller through a permitted third party payment provider.

What would you actually do if you found out that the woman who's carrying your child, is actually cheating on you?
A US Veteran now calls his wife Thunderc**t after she decided to move with her new boyfriend. What's surprising in this story is that he's more than happy to know that his wife's case is now being handled by the legal court.
The US Veteran claims that they met each other when a common friend from the military has introduced them to each other.
They immediately decided to get married because they already want to start their own family.
But then, after they got married, this man then got suspicious over his wife when she started travelling to different towns and even uses her mother as an excuse.
His suspicions were then confirmed when he got to serve Korea and a man said, "This woman was sleeping with 60 (not even kidding in the slightest) different men, most of them soldiers."
"So, basically, this woman is using me as a pay check and meal ticket, and s****ing everything with a pulse that happens to be male.", he added.
Matters were then taken to the legal court and he was given the house and the vehicle, while the wife was given 30 days to evacuate.

text: I just got my X about a week ago. It has been working great and I love it. But yesterday when playing jewels the screen just went black. The phone is still on but screen is black. It began to display again after about a minute. Now since then it seems to happen any time my phone has to process anything. If I browse the net it will work for a couple minutes then black screen. If I try to play any game it will last a couple minutes then goes to black screen. I tried to use google maps and that instantly turned the screen black. Other info: Like I said the screen does eventually turn itself back on but it takes anywhere from 1-2minutes. I have done multiple battery pulls but it doesn't help. I am running Launcher Pro. Phone calls can still come in when the screen is black. And the screen is still responsive because I can answer the call. The screen is not shut off because I can see the glow of the screen although it is just black. Any ideas as to why this is happening?

By Theo Cronin
Would you eat genetically modified (GM) food? The gut reaction of the majority of us it seems is to say 'no'.
It is a question the Prime Minister refused to answer recently, despite being asked ten times.
But the chances are, he, you and most of us already have – or at least we are likely to have consumed meat, milk or eggs from animals fed on GM maize or soya, that is imported into the EU in large quantities.
There is no requirement for such products to be labelled differently and only one supermarket in the UK assures customers, at least for the time being, its supply chain is GM free.
The debate concerning genetically modified organisms, or GM foods, was reignited recently by a keynote speech made by Owen Paterson, the Environment Secretary. Calling for a more informed discussion on genetic modification, Mr Paterson said he owed a duty to the British public to reassure us that GM is safe, proven and beneficial.
However, with frightening Frankenstein foods making the headlines again, and surveys showing the majority of shoppers wanting GM food banned from supermarkets, the debate was already becoming reactionary and ideological before a more reasoned approach could even begin.
Most reports mentioned the Flavr Savr tomato, which in 1994 in the US became the first commercially grown genetically modified product to be granted a licence for human consumption.
Intrigued by the issues, and prompted by repeated images of the red fruit, it was time to contact our very own tomato expert, Tony Girard from West Chiltington, for a more rational discussion about GM.
Tony is not an expert in GM, nor does he have vested interests or stakes in companies associated with the technology.
Instead, the 69 year old is a horticulturist who was at the forefront of commercial tomato growing in the UK for more than 30 years, responsible for the expansion of Sussex-based large scale tomato producer Van Heyningen Brothers to around 200 acres under glass.
The vice chair of the SCI Horticultural Group and past president of The Institute of Horticulture was also instrumental in pioneering the large scale use of the growing of crops in 'grow bags' and developed the pot herb business in the UK, the product of which is now very familiar in all supermarkets.
He now works for Koppert Biological Systems and, as its UK Director, helps to support the production of crops with little or no use of harmful chemicals – an awesome arsenal of 'good guys' consisting of bugs, bacterium and fungi used to control pests instead.
Chatting in the beautiful gardens of his Wells cottage, we discussed the definition of 'natural' and why GM causes such great concerns for so many.
Holding a tomato from his kitchen, Tony reflected how the original tomato wasn't sweet, was very small, and looked distinctly unattractive. It was also thought to be poisonous.
"Everything that we eat these days started off as being something which is found in nature – but it's been selected and reselected, cultivated and nurtured until it is something that we want," said Tony, emphasising the 'we', before adding: "As opposed to what nature provided us with in the first place.
"So, we can call what we see today perfectly natural, but natural compared to when? 100 years ago? 1 million years ago?
"Everything evolves, and with tomatoes, the cross pollination breeding programmes that have taken place over many years bring us to where we are now," he said, looking again at his shop-bought specimen.
Mankind has always applied science and technology, with selective breeding in the past and new fertilizers and pesticides more recently, to achieve the results we have wanted.
So, is GM just an extension of this historical process - the appliance of science on the genetic level, now that advances in technology permit such manipulation? Or is GM a true step-change?
"It is a step-change," asserted Tony, going on to describe how with genetic engineering genes are removed from one plant species and moved to another to facilitate desirable characteristics.
And the same process can be carried out between an animal species and plant which he said was 'far more concerning' and is 'difficult for most people to comprehend'.
"It has been described as like Frankenstein science, maybe – that is one way of describing it but I don't see it that way," he said.
"But it is science, and all of us benefit from science one way or another.
"There are bad things which have happened and still will, but should that prevent us from harnessing the good because of the fear of the bad?
"That doesn't really take us forward," he said, answering his own question.
For most of Tony's career in the commercial growing business, GM was either non-existent or in its infancy. But what the technology could offer has always been desired.
"Customers would come to me and say we want something earlier, later, bigger, fatter, wider, striped, better tasting, and I would say 'yes', 'fine', if you want to wait ten years then maybe we'll have something better!
"GM can help, not always, but can help that to happen faster," said Tony, before questioning: "Is it good? Is it bad?" This time he left his rhetorical questions hanging. But Tony is a realist, and regardless of morality, there will always be a commercial imperative to improve yields, flavour or the look of products.
The UK and the EU are losing their competitive edge and falling behind other global regions less constrained by ideological concerns about GM.
Frustrated how the GM debate has been closed down in recent times here, with consumers and the public often left ignorant and confused amidst the rival fanaticisms of global agribusinesses and environmental campaigners, Tony said: "We must remain open minded.
"We should take the trouble to be well-informed and therefore decisions should always be made on good solid information.
" Unfortunately good solid information doesn't always come to the fore - it is all too often manipulated or contrived," he said.
Undoubtedly, there are significant issues with GM, but it is very hard to argue they only concern safety fears regarding GM products and their consumption by humans.
More pressing perhaps should be concerns regarding ecological contagion, as well as economic implications, since GM techniques and crops are subject to intellectual property laws.
"To say no to GM isn't right, that's just burying one's head in the sand," concluded Tony.
"But just saying there is no problem at all is also wrong," he added. "There's been improvement in what we do as mankind forever.
"GM is part of development and progress, ending up with plants that are more resistant to pests, diseases, drought and high/low temperatures.
"Also requiring less fertilizers and harmful chemicals and in doing so, exerting less pressure on the environment.
"Let's not forget that many materials and minerals are being used up at an unsustainable rate.
"We just have to produce more of what we want or need while reducing inputs."
Tony did state that the alternative would be to initiate global population control, reducing mankind's numbers to a lower more sustainable rate of increase. But this is an issue even more fraught with moral, environmental and existential issues than the genetic modification debate.
Returning to the topic of conversation and genetic engineering's potential to solve issues we face, Tony said: "It is fascinating, and it can also be frightening if people are frightened of the unknown.
"Other people get hugely excited by the unknown.
"What I certainly know of it now is nothing compared to the possibilities which there may be coming down the line in the future.
"Is it good? Is it bad? I will leave that for others to judge."

OpenWRT and the Zsun Card Reader
Posted by cg in Making and Tinkering on April 24, 2016
During the last few weeks since my first post about the Zsun WiFi Card Reader I learned a few things that I haven't documented yet.
After I was able to confirm that my device has indeed PCB v2 but that flashing should work just the same, I tried the simple method described here:
- Insert a FAT formatted micro SD card into the reader and plug the reader into a PC (running Windows, in my case). The card should be assigned a drive letter, say "J:".
- Connect to the WiFi access point created by the reader.
- Open http://10.168.168.1:8080/goform/Setcardworkmode?workmode=0
- Open the drive/card in the file explorer, create a new folder named "
.update." and copy the
SD100-openwrt.tar.gzarchive into it.
- Open http://10.168.168.1:8080/goform/upFirmWare – this should return status code "2".
- Wait patiently for the described LED flashes!
- Connect to the new access point called "OpenWRT".
- Open https://192.168.1.1/cgi-bin/luci and configure OpenWRT.
This worked like a charm (a big thanks to Warsaw!), but only 5 minutes later I managed to lock myself out with a bad WiFi config. Great. So I went ahead and soldered leads to the serial headers. But while I was able to receive and read the console output just fine I had no success sending any input to that console. Only today I learned that PCB version 2 is missing a jumper that needs to be connected in order to enable serial RX. Connecting this jumper has exceeded my meager soldering skills so far, though.
Fortunately, I learned another fact from a helpful comment on my previous post: By inserting or removing the SD card during boot, OpenWRT can be put into fail-safe mode that will reset the configuration. I kept inserting and removing it in quick succession for about 10 seconds in order to get the timing right. Now I'm able to connect to the WiFi again!
One of the images is showing an Ethernet cable attached directly to the board. This did not work for me and trying it was somewhat naive. It's been brought to my attention that this might damage the SoC, too. If resetting an OpenWRT installation as described above is not enough, the best way to un-brick the device seems to be through the serial console as described in the comments.
The Zsun WiFi Card Reader
Posted by cg in Making and Tinkering on March 15, 2016
I'm not sure where I read first about the $8 Zsun WiFi Card Reader and the attempts by the people at Warsaw Hackerspace to flash it with their port of OpenWRT. It made me curious, so I went ahead and ordered a sample. Shipping from China took a while but I received the tiny gadget yesterday.
So far I could confirm the documented root access to the stock firmware via telnet on port 11880 using the password "zsun1188". I have not tried flashing OpenWRT yet as I am not sure which of the at least two different PCB versions I got. Could anyone give me a hint on this?
OpenWRT and Scripting Languages, Part 1
Posted by cg in Coding and Software, Making and Tinkering on January 10, 2012
The RGB wall light project is currently on hold due to a massive lack of time. Still, I'm taking little steps of preparation for the second phase of the project, the software intended to control the RGB matrix. I could use the gcc cross compiler for the job, but using a scripting language to develop directly on the device promises to be far more comfortable. I'd like to narrow this down to languages readily available as packages for OpenWRT which leaves me with Erlang, Lua, Ruby, Perl, and Python. Since I feel like trying something new I'm going to rule out Perl for now.
Make Room
The installation of the bleeding edge OpenWRT version called "Attitude Adjustment" on the TL-MR3220 leaves about 1MB of space for additional packages to be installed – which isn't even close to being enough for this purpose. So, the first step is to extend that space and the currently recommended way to do this is to move the overlay mount to an external USB device: Read the rest of this entry »
Wifi Enabled RGB Matrix Wall Light, Part 1
Posted by cg in Making and Tinkering on December 17, 2011
Inspired by the so called Lampduino and several other related projects I decided to build my own version of a RGB matrix wall light some time ago. During the last few weeks I finally managed to start out on this project.
The matrix of 64 individual cells and the LED back-plane are made from 4mm thin plywood that I spray-painted with a silvery varnish. The outer frame is made from a stronger 14mm birch multiplex board, yielding a very solid construction. I also bought some thin, white PVC board intended as the material for the front cover, but I still have to figure out how to cut that nicely.
Lacking the ambition to create my own LED driver board I settled for the "Rainbowduino", an Arduino compatible board developed and sold by Seeed Studio. In addition to that, I wanted the matrix to be controlled and programmed over the air. One of the cheapest, easiest, and most versatile ways to accomplish this was to modify an OpenWRT based router for this purpose.
Serial Communication Between an Arduino and the TL-MR3220 Router
Posted by cg in Making and Tinkering on September 25, 2011
Last time, I installed OpenWRT on the TL-MR3220 router and added a connector for it's serial interface. Today, I wanted to try and connect this interface to an Arduino to make the two communicate. The router's interface operates at 3.3V while the Arduino's UART operates at 5V, so we need to convert between those levels. The cheapest way to do this that I could find is described here. It involves using a 74LS04 hex inverter chip to convert the 3.3V signal up to 5V and two resistors for a simple voltage divider to convert the 5V signal down to 3.3V.
OpenWRT and the Serial Console of the TL-MR3220 Router
Posted by cg in Making and Tinkering on August 22, 2011
The TP-LINK router TL-MR3220 is a very cheap (around €22 in Germany) yet feature-rich wireless 802.11n router that supports the open source OpenWRT firmware. It offers a USB port, allowing a bunch of additional peripheral hardware to be connected. Installing the matching OpenWRT nightly build was easy enough, the original firmware offers to do so using the standard web interface.
I was thinking about connecting one of them to an Arduino in a project to come. The integrated serial interface seems to be the obvious way to achieve this. The router's board readily exposes the interface, so I added a 4-pin header to do a few tests. The pin-out of the interface is documented in the OpenWRT wiki. Using a standard FTDI adapter I then got access to the router's serial console. From here it should not be to hard to use the same interface to connect to an Arduino instead.

"Saving Santa" (BR/DVD Combo SRP $29.99; DVD SRP $21.98)
An upbeat tale of the ultimate holiday rush, "Saving Santa" starts at the top – the top of the North Pole, that is – where Bernard (Martin Freeman), a low-ranking Elf, dreams of one day joining Santa's elite team of great inventors, the very elves who make the magic of Christmas possible! But when one of Bernard's wacky inventions accidentally reveals the secret location of Santa's workshop to an eccentric billionaire scoundrel (Tim Curry), Santa (Tim Conway) and Christmas itself are in jeopardy. It's up to Bernard to time-travel (again and again) to get Santa home in time for Christmas! In addition to its collection of top talent and non-stop, action-packed entertainment, "Saving Santa" features must-see bonus content, including the animated music video for "Some Kind of Miracle" sung by Ashley Tisdale (voice of Shiny), "behind-the scenes" voice recording sessions with the film's talent and a special "Why Saving Santa?" featurette!


text: This is more of a me trying to myself what just happened but any comments I would gladly take on board. The other day I had a very perculiar customer come to me. I had an offer running on another site for logo design. They gave me a brief idea of what they wanted, but about half an hour later, they started sending me something they had made, and what they had made was of a very good standard. So first thoughts were "Why are they asking me to create a logo when their current one is quite good." When I made them my first draft they started saying how this wasn't accurate to their industry. Fair enough. So I asked what he wanted, again, they started sending pictures (which I suspect were from google) which were incredibly good, that I think will have been done on a specialist 3D program. Asking me to make something like that, because this is what he had made. Again "Why is he sending me these pictures he has created as they are very good". I had to explain copyright etc. and how he couldn't use images from Google, and despite his best efforts to convince me, I couldn't believe he had made them as he didn't have the original files. So I gave him another idea and made a totally different concept - this time including 'something from the industry'. But it isn't right for him, so he starts sending me more pictures - which as we know, I can't use lol. Then he starts telling me how text accompanied by a symbol does not constitute a logo, and that it should have an image to be a logo. I explain, we have very different ideas of what a logo is, but that both of our opinions would be accepted as 'a logo'. I decided to end the process there, and it was very mutual, I believe he was foreign, but there was much more than a language barrier involved. Anybody had a similar experience? Was I in the wrong here? Or is it just something that happens time-to-time? Thanks - Sorry I rambled.:icon_smile:

Co-operative Insurance cover bikes (and replaced my Gary Fisher when it was stolen from the back garden). I don't know about cover away from home or when racing.
I'm currently looking for a new home insurance provider, who will cover my bikes under the contents. Maybe I'm having a bit of wishful thinking here but ideally it would cover them while I was racing too. Any suggestions? Thanks

Guest Editorial > Why reforming the NHS doesn't work: The importance of understanding how good people offer bad care. By Valerie Iles
Why reforming the NHS doesn't work: The importance of understanding how good people offer bad care. By Valerie Iles | Lynn Young
This gem of a book is an absolute must read for everyone involved in health care in the UK. In her fascinating review, Lynn Young explains why ...
It was my good luck to enjoy a long career immersed in community and primary health care services. Health policy and practice issues relating to the strange, though intriguing world of health and health care outside the hospital consumed much of my energy between 1991 and 2012. During this time there were, in many peoples' views, far too frequent NHS reorganisations ordered by Tory, Labour and Coalition Governments. While I was politically naive in my early days, by the time retirement beckoned whole scale despair over the hopelessness of NHS reorganisations demanded by the Governments of the day had taken over. So, for this reason as well as reaching a certain age it was time for me to go.
But, enough about me, here is an elegantly written and refreshing book which offers wisdom and clarity on why, for the main part, reforms fail time after time to bring the benefits to health care which the designers of reforms yearn for. For a number of reasons they tend to miss the point, are a financial waste and take up human energy which could be far better used in that most worthy of endeavours – that of health and health service improvement.
My great wish is for this gem of a book to be taken seriously by politicians, policy wonks and health managers. The insight and knowledge shown by the author and fellow contributors is impressive, offers its readers the opportunity to understand better why structural change fails and what needs to happen to health care workers if we are to have trust and faith in our NHS.
'Why reforming the NHS doesn't work' is timely for a number of reasons; to name but a few – the Francis Report, the drive to enhance compassionate care, the challenge of meeting the needs of an older population and ever increasing technology within the inevitable financial constraints. Wouldn't it be wonderful if the people who have the power to reform the NHS, including Professor Don Berwick, took time to read and inwardly digest this book? It needs to become the NHS bible, an essential read for all health-related student clinicians and managers as well as those who have been working in the health industry for a number of years. The mantra flowing through Isle's book is that it is attitudes, relationships and behaviors which are crucial to excellent health care, rather than marketisation, tendering, competition and the demolition of organisations which were set up, only to be knocked down after a relatively short time.
Here is a book which gives us more normal folk (rather than experts, such as the author and contributors) a heartfelt but equally forensic explanation of the human reality of the NHS which sits some distance away from today's spin, headlines and ministerial announcements.
It is remarkably devoid of pseudo management speak, the writing style is truly elegant in terms of simplicity, humanity, emotion, while at the same time being wildly intelligent. During these days of contracts, audits, bench marks, indicators, incentives and tenders the spirit is lifted when people have the confidence and conviction to write about the need for staff to flourish, to question the perceived added value of choice, how ambition can reduce humanity and the essential requirement of respectful relationships between colleagues. The warmth of human kindness and what it brings to the patient and staff experience shines throughout.
Perhaps you have gathered by now that I am a huge fan, who has a strong belief in the potential improvement which could be achieved through spreading and adapting behaviour according to the Iles et al mission.
And maybe, hopefully, this review in a small but sincere way justifies the intellectual rigour, humanity and emotional intelligence so ably expressed in this diamond of a book – the most superior by far of anything else I have read on the NHS in the last twenty years.
My congratulations go to Valerie and her fellow learning set colleagues for sharing their experience, honesty, talents, dedicated work and integrity. Just a thought, have copies been sent to Richmond House?

Organizational capabilities and industry dynamics: a computational model
In this paper we propose a model of bounded rational organizations that addresses the role of organizational capabilities in shaping firm size, growth rates and profitability. Our approach aims at reconciling the logic behind stochastic models of firm growth with the notion of organizational capabilities as drivers of economic performance. We extend the stochastic framework by incorporating behavioural assumptions on: (a) the interactions between the firm and the business environment; and (b) the mechanism by which firms sense and seize business opportunities. In our perspective, the degree of concurrence between the substance and organization of the firm and the context in which it operates will directly influence its profitability and indirectly (through costly mutations of the organizational structure) drive its growth. Despite its simple nature the model is able to capture well known regularities about industry dynamics. It generates firm size distributions that are skewed and heterogeneous across different scenarios. Moreover, our results suggest that the higher the selective power of the firm's organizational capabilities, the more the steady state distribution deviates from a log normal. Besides, the distribution of growth rates has a tent-shaped form which is consistent with the pattern described in empirical studies. The distribution of opportunities per firm is also skewed suggesting that a very few entities account for a large fraction of business opportunities arising throughout the simulation period. Finally, the interaction between the external environment and the internal structure of the firms also influences the heterogeneity in the value of the opportunities they capture.

CKD stage 4 - why is it that most days I feel fine yet some days I feel really awful (and what can I do!)
Hello all, I hope you can help me with this…I have late stage 4 CKD with an egfr of 18% and am on no medication for anything. I still work full time and have a long train commute. My problem is that most days I feel absolutely fine and can go for a few weeks in good health and with a fair amount of energy yet some days I feel really awful. The symptoms I get are that my hands get cold and ache and my joints ache and I feel so weak and don't feel like eating or even moving! This lasts for a day or two with me sitting down doing nothing then just as quickly as it came on it is gone and I bounce back to my normal self and feel fine for a couple of weeks. Work are being very good about it (They are fully aware of my kidney problems) but I have had 3 days off in the last fortnight. So my two questions are dear members: a) Is what I have described normal for people with CKD stage 4? b) Is there anything I can do / or take to avoid these episodes?

A candid account of one of America's most provocative filmmakers that belongs on the shelf of any serious movie lover.
This biography of one of the first black men to perform in, direct, and produce major films reads like a juicy gossip story. Lee was born Shelton Jackson Lee on March 20, 1957 in Atlanta, Georgia, but he grew up in New York. A Morehouse graduate like his father and grandfather, Lee later attended the New York University Film School. While particulars about the making of over a dozen films and documentaries, including Crooklyn, Mo' Better Blues, Inside Man and When the Levees Broke: A Requiem in Four Acts, are offered, Lee's idiosyncrasies, such as his combined love and dislike for certain family members and his need to lead and dominate, seem to take center stage. However, the details of how he met his wife, Tonya Lewis Lee, are charming, and the glimpses of his love and adoration for his children are heartfelt. His work, and the praise of many of today's famous black actorsHalle Berry, Samuel L. Jackson, Denzel Washington and Wesley Snipesincluded in one or more of his films, make him a worthy subject of a book that readers interested in filmmaking and Lee's personal life will quickly devour.

BOPP films project massive demand in Indian packaging industry
Changes in customer dynamics and patterns are witnessed in every sector and food-packaging is no exception. This sector has lately witnessed an increased preference for plastic film and sheets as compared to other flexible packaging materials such as kraft paper, aluminum foil and cellophane film. However, a closer observation will reveal that this trend is slowly gaining ground in non-food packaging applications as well as BOPP films which are being increasing used. Infact, BOPP films represents one of the high-growth segments in the global plastic film and sheets industry.
It is interesting to note that growth in the BOPP film market is driven by rising demand from Asia, particularly from China and India, and other developing regions such as Latin America and Eastern Europe. The Asia-Pacific represents immense growth potential, capturing the largest slice of the global market, as stated by the new market research report on Plastic Film and Sheets. Developing markets such as China, India and other countries in the Asia-Pacific region are rapidly emerging as dominant forces in the world plastic film & sheets industry. The trend can be witnessed in BOPP film, in which China replaced the US as the largest producer and consumer. Asia-Pacific region is also primed to race ahead at the strongest compounded annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.3% through 2017.
Contributing a lion's share to this emerging Indian flexible market is Uflex Ltd., India's largest flexible packaging company. Uflex has been producing a variety of value added flexible packaging material , sophisticated product films like BOPET, BOPP and CPP, state-of-the-art packaging and converting machines, rotogravure cylinders, thereby providing world class flexible packaging solutions to its customers in both the domestic and international market at competitive prices.
In fact, Uflex has commissioned an AL-OX coater for packaging films at its Egypt plant near Cairo. In fact, as part of its expansion plans, Uflex is ramping up production capacities for BOPP films to 35,000 TPA 30,000 TPA of PET (Polyester) and 12,000 TPA of CPP films aggregating to total capacity of 77,000 TPA. The company's planned investments in Egypt are pegged at $135 million. The first line of this expansion involves adding capacities in BOPP films. The site of the plant already houses an 8.7 meter wide, 500-mpm, state-of-the-art BOPP Film plant, which is already one of the world's largest packaging film lines, capable of turning out 35,000 MT per year.
