Prison Ashrams
It was in jail that I experienced a real Ashram life. All I had were a few clothes, a tumbler and a bowl. What better place could there be for following the vow of 'non-posse- ssion'? Bathing, eating, working were according to rule, going to bed and getting up by the bell—a perfectly regular life ! One was not even allowed to fall ill ! The vow of control of the palate was practised every day; even the Ashram was not a better place for that. There was also plenty of time for thought and reflection. So even the jail could be made a part of the spiritual exercise of Ashram life. I was greatly benefited by the chance I got in prison to live alongside all kinds of people. Before that individual satyagraha I had been in jail twice. I was arrested first in 1923, in connection with the Nagpur Flag Satyagraha. At first I was in the Nagpur jail, and was later sent to Akola. On that occasion I was treated like an ordinary criminal and sentenced to rigorous imprisonment with hard labour (breaking stones).1 I was even given a period of solitary confinement in a cell measuring nine feet by eight. In one corner was a stone hand-mill and in another an earthenware piss-pot. There was no work to do, no book to read, no pencil or paper, no chance even to go out. It was enough to drive a man mad. However, I drew up a daily timetable for myself: ten hours for sleep, two or three hours for meditation, about three hours for eating, bathing etc., and eight hours for walking up and down. I covered at least ten miles each day, reckoning my speed at about one and a half miles an hour. As I walked I sang all the hymns I knew by heart. Once I was pacing to and fro like this at about one o'clock at night, engrossed in thought. The warder came on his rounds, and puzzled at seeing me walking about, he knocked on the door. As I was completely absorbed I failed to respond, and the poor man became alarmed. He came in and shook me and asked me what was the matter. I tried to explain what I was doing and what the fruits of such contemplation might be, and he was very pleased. The very next day I received a real boon—he arranged for me to walk a short time daily in an open place. I felt quite at ease in that cell. During the night I would meditate for about three hours, and one of the warders, who noticed this, would come and sit near me. One day he came with a lantern, and found that my eyes were closed. After waiting for some time he said: 'Babuji, may I speak to you?' I opened my eyes and he said: 'I am leaving tomorrow. Please give me some teaching to guide me.' Seeing me sitting every day with closed eyes he thought I must be some sadhu or yogi. So I gave him a few suggestions to satisfy him, and he went away happily. I was kept in that cell for fifteen days, and during that time I realized the meaning of that verse in the Gita,2 which says: 'One who sees non-action in action, and action in non-action, is truly an enlightened being.' Finally, seeing that solitary confinement was no hardship for me, the gaoler sent me back to the 'general ward', and there too I felt equally happy. In 1932 I was in Dhulia jail for six months. Many of my companions there found jail life very dull, because they had not learned the art of acceptance, and were feeling very rebellious. I decided that it was my job to cheer them all up. There was no question of seeking pardon or release from the Government, so I set to work to help them not to lose heart, and to find some interest in life in jail. Those who had known me earlier, and then shared the jail life with me, noticed my conduct. 'When Vinoba goes to jail,' they would say, 'he completely forgets his love of solitude.' I got to know personally every political prisoner in Dhulia jail. We would talk for hours together and I did everything I could to help and cheer them up. At that time only 'C' class political prisoners were given work to do. I was in 'B' class, but I did not want to accept such 'privileges', and as soon as I reached the jail I asked for work. 'How can I give you work?' asked the gaoler. 'You are not strong enough.' 'I am eating here,' I said, 'and I don't believe in eating without working. If I don't get work by tomorrow I shall stop eating.' 'Very well,' he replied, 'but I will not give you work. You yourself may do whatever kind of work you please.' During that time of imprisonment I had to take it on myself to control all the political prisoners; conditions were such that if I had not done so there would have been no discipline at all. They were bent upon rebellion and would listen to nobody. There were about three hundred of them, all 'freedom-fighters'. In my view, a soldier of freedom ought to do some bodily labour every day as part of the discipline of freedom. The jail discipline was to require every prisoner to grind thirty-five pounds of flour a day. I told the authorities that these political prisoners would refuse to do such work in obedience to an order, even if they were put in iron for disobedience. 'Please don't insist on it,' I said. 'Instead, we will voluntarily supply the whole prison with all the flour that is needed, and we will take responsibility for all the kitchen work also.' They agreed to this proposal, so my next job was to tackle the prisoners. Everyone, I said, even those sentenced only to simple imprisonment, ought to grind at least twenty-one pounds of flour daily. They did not all agree at once because they suspected that I might be letting them in for something which I would not do myself. But when they saw me grinding, they all began to work enthusiastically, old and young, seniors and juniors. They not only did their own full quota, they ground also for the sick and the aged. As we worked we talked, discussing ideas and extending our knowledge. The place was no longer a jail; it became an Ashram.3 We had also undertaken to run the kitchen, and our very best people were engaged in this work. After the pulse was cooked, we mashed it into a thick, smooth soup, which took as much time as the actual cooking. We all remember it even now. It was so good that people declare that they would never get the like of it anywhere else. There were only ten or twelve of us who did not take spiced food: all the others were accustomed to spice. Little by little, however, all the political prisoners joined us in eating unspiced food, and then the other prisoners also began to ask for it. The number became so large that the gaoler came to consult me. 'I am responsible for the health of these prisoners,' he said, 'and I am required by the rules to give them the fixed rations, which include chillies also. Please don't disturb these arrangements.' So I told the prisoners that when they got back home they could do as they wished, but that so long as they were in jail they should accept what was given. I had to deal with so much business of this kind that people began to wonder why I had become so fond of society when I was reputed to like solitude. 'Do you count me among the anti-social elements?' I would ask. I mixed with the others in order to keep them all in good spirits. Sometimes it would become known that a letter had arrived but that the gaoler had kept it back. When I asked why he didn't give the poor man his letter, he told me that it was not suitable to pass it on. I referred to this in one of my talks on the Gita. 'There is a message for you in every wind,' I said. 'Why should you feel so sore if you do not receive that letter?'4 I would also tell them individually that if they were so unduly anxious it seemed they had no faith in God. In this way I did my best to strengthen and comfort them.
'Talks on the Gita' is Born
In Dhulia jail I was in the company of the saints, for men like Sane Guruji, Jamnalalji Bajaj and Apte Guruji were there with me. They suggested that I should give regular talks on the Gita; I agreed to do so and started to give a talk every Sunday. Sane Guruji wrote them all down word for word; it was surely by the grace of God that I was given such a wonderful scribe, for his heart and mine were as one and our feelings were in complete harmony. This recording of the talks proved to be a boon to the world, though at the time no one dreamed that these jail talks would later be read in every language throughout the country. But what God wills comes to pass. In jail-life nothing is certain; anyone, at any time, may be sent anywhere. The Government might have sent me or Sane Guruji elsewhere, or released one of us. But nothing of the sort happened. We were able to com- plete the talks on all the eighteen chapters. The Gita itself had been delivered on the battlefield; we too, in the jail, felt ourselves to be soldiers in a battle, the battle of freedom. I can never forget that sacred experience, nor can I ever put into words what I felt when I gave those talks. But if God ever speaks through the lips of a man, then surely He spoke through my lips during those days. I never felt that it was I who spoke, and to the listeners too it seemed that the words they heard were not merely Vinoba's. To begin with I gave the talks to the male prisoners only, but the women asked the gaoler to give a chance to hear them also. Male prisoners were strictly forbidden to enter the women's quarters, but the gaoler, whose name was Vaishnava, ruled that in this case Vinoba should be regarded as a woman, and boldly gave permission for me to talk to the women. I invited him to be present himself, and he not only attended the talks, he brought his wife with him. So I began a weekly talk to the women, and it was not long before the ordinary prisoners also asked permission to hear me. The gaoler asked me if I was willing, and I said that I would be glad to talk to them, provided that he could give them an hour's leave on some day other than Sunday. This was in the middle of the non-cooperation movement, but even so that fine gaoler gave them an hour's leave every Wednesday for my talks. Some of these prisoners worked in the garden, and they used to make and bring flower garlands to show their affection for me; some others were under sentence of death, but they too were allowed to attend the talks. As a result, the whole atmosphere of the jail was spiritually enriched. Meanwhile, my Gitai5 was being printed in Dhulia, and while in jail I was correcting the proofs. When the ordinary prisoners heard that I was soon to be released, they asked the Superintendent for two annas each from their jail earnings which were deposited in his keeping. 'What do you want it for?' he asked, and they said that one anna was for a copy of the Gitai, and the other was their dakshina6 for Vinoba. I can never forget the great affection which these prisoners showered upon me.
A Sacrifice in Faith
During the individual satyagraha of 1940 I was arrested three times and spent altogether about a year and three quarters in prison. By Bapu's orders I had undertaken this Satyagraha in the name of the whole country, so when I got to jail it seemed to me that as the representative of all India, I ought to learn all of the India's languages. In my own mind even that was not enough; I aspired to represent the whole world of humanity, and that meant learning world languages also. So I studied a great deal, and very deeply, both during these imprisonments and during that which followed August 1942: about five years in all. I studied for fourteen or fifteen hours a day, and while I was in Nagpur jail I used to listen to the Koran on the radio to get the correct pronunciation of the Arabic. To go back to the period before the 1942 movement: Gandhiji was thinking that if he should be imprisoned he would start fasting from the moment he set foot in the jail. Jail-going was not now something novel; now his mind was churning this new idea: if we refused to recognize British rule and asked the British to 'Quit India', we should begin to fast as soon as we entered their jails. Only one whose heart is filled with love is capable of such a sacrifice. Even if it were possible for an individual, could it ever become a movement? Of course thousands of people join an army, but would they join a fast? Gandhiji thought that it was possible; he himself, he said, would take the lead. This idea alarmed everyone, and those around him felt that it had to be stopped somehow. There can't be such a thing as chain-fasting, they said. There can be no army of fasters, for such things can't be done to order. Bapu then called me to Sevagram and put his idea before me. The question was: if a wise man can do a thing in the fullness of his wisdom, could it be done by one of his followers from faith in him? 'Yes,' I replied. 'What the Lord Rama can do in the fullness of his knowledge, Hanuman7 can do in the fullness of his faith.' There the matter ended; there was nothing more to be said and I got up and left. Then, on the ninth of August, Bapu was arrested, but he did not think it proper to begin to fast immediately because he planned to have some correspondence with the Government on the issue. I did not know about this later development till afterwards. Pyarelalji had not been arrested, and Bapu told him to send me word not to begin to fast as soon as I entered jail. For Bapu knew that after what I had said to him, that is what I would do, even though he had given no orders but merely asked my opinion. As it was, I had got from him something much more imperative than an order. Soon afterwards I too was arrested. As soon as I reached the jail I said to the gaoler: 'You know me well. You know that I have always obeyed the rules meticulously and got others to do the same. But this time it is different. I have already had a meal, so I do not need the midday meal here. But I shall take no food from this evening on, and I don't know for how long. I am not doing this to violate your discipline, but for the sake of an inner discipline of my own.' So I entered the jail, but two hours later I was summoned to the office. Pyarelalji had sent on Bapu's message to Kishorlalbhai,8 who had asked the Deputy Commissioner if the message could be passed on to me. The D.C. referred it to the Governor, who allowed it on condition that not a word should be added. When the D.C. told Kishorlalbhai that the message would be given, Kishorlalbhai pointed out that Vinoba might not accept it as genuine unless one of our own group could deliver it personally. So in the end Gopalrao Valunjkar came and read Bapu's message to me, and I gave up my fast. Nevertheless I feel I can honestly claim that I would have fasted not a whit less happily than Bapu himself, but I would have done it not from knowledge (like Bapu) but from faith. I have no doubt at all that an individual can make such a sacrifice, with the fullest reverence and love, in obedience to an order accepted in faith.
Vellore and Seoni Jails
From Wardha jail I was sent to Nagpur, and then to Vellore as I was classified as a 'dangerous' prisoner. When I arrived, the gaoler asked what I needed. 'I need two things,' I said, 'a barber for my hair, and someone who can teach me Tamil, seeing that I am now in a Tamil-speaking province and shall be eating its food.' By eight o'clock I was shaved and had a bath, and the gaoler had sent me a teacher. He did not know much Tamil, however, and although there were many Tamil-speaking people in the jail, I was kept apart from them. The man sent to me knew some English, and I began to learn Tamil from him. Ten or twelve days later I started to learn Telugu, and after that Kannada and Malayalam, so that within a month I had begun to learn all the four languages of the South. Someone asked me why I was studying four languages at once, and I replied: 'Because there isn't a fifth !' By studying the four languages together I was able to compare them and so learn more. In Vellore jail all sorts of facilities were to be had for the asking, at government expense. This seemed to me to be a most enervating practice, designed to rob our movement of all vigour. I disliked it. There was famine in Bengal, yet here were we, asking for things like cots and chairs, making a fuss when we did not get them, and calling it 'a struggle'. When in the end the Government conceded our demands, we called it a triumph, a victory. What a triumph ! What a victory ! It was nothing but folly and defeat. Finally I was sent from Vellore to Seoni (in Central India), where I had the company of the late Bharatan Kumarappa.9 He asked me to teach him Hindi and I agreed and chose the Ramayana of Tulsidas for our text book. I told him at the start why the Tulsi Ramayana was important. 'For Hindi studies,' I said, 'it is like the Bible and Shakespeare combined.' After two months' study he said to me: 'What you said is absolutely true. You gave me the essence of it in one sentence.' I replied: 'The Bible is the Christian Scripture, and its language is sweet and simple. Shakespeare, great poet and dramatist as he was, is unrivalled in his use of the English language. He is great as a writer, the Bible is great spiritually. In Tulsi Ramayana there is a happy combination of the two.' Political prisoners had the privilege of getting books to read. The jail officers would examine the books that were sent in, reject 'objectionable' books, and give the rest to those who asked for them. The books I asked for were never rejected, for I asked only for such books as the Gita and the Upanishads. 'I asked for seventeen books,' said one of my fellow prisoners, 'and got only one or two, while Vinoba gets everything he asks for !' 'That is because the Govern- ment is a blockhead,' I replied. 'It doesn't understand what is really dangerous. If it did, it would certainly stop the Gita and the Upanishads. Gandhi would not have become that 'dangerous' Gandhi, Tilak would not have become Tilak, nor Aurobindo become Sri Aurobindo, without the foundation laid by the Gita. Only those books which deal with the basic principles of life have the explosive force to destroy tyrannical power.' Political prisoners in Seoni jail were allowed to write letters to their kinsfolk but not to others. I did not approve of the distinction between 'my' people and the rest, so I wrote no letter to anyone during my time there. One day the gaoler was talking to me. 'Is there nothing at all that troubles you?' he asked. 'You always seem so cheerful and contented.' 'There is one thing that distresses me,' I replied, 'but I will leave you to find out what it is, and I will give you a week's time.' At the end of the week he came back. 'I can't guess what your difficulty is,' he said. 'Please tell me.' 'It is this,' I said. 'In this jail, I get no chance to see either the sunrise or the sunset; that is my trouble.'
Freedom from Institutions
As soon as I was released from jail after the individual satyagraha, I went to see Bapu. I remember that he said to me then: 'Vinoba, this is not the last of your trips to jail, you will have to go again.' 'I am quite ready,' I said, and we went on talking. 'Have you brought any new ideas back with you from jail?' he asked. 'Yes,' I said. 'I think that I should now free myself from all institutions, for otherwise I shall not be able to make any progress in non-violence.' He said at once, 'You are quite right.' Then he went on, translating my thought into his own language: 'That means that you will be of help to all the institutions but will not accept office in any of them.' Ashadevi10 was sitting near. Bapu said to her: 'It is good that Vinoba should free himself from these things. It is only when we can get away from such involvements that we are able to think to good effect. If our hands are loaded with daily affairs, we are not at liberty to think, and no new discoveries will be made.' So Bapu set his seal of approval on my decision, and no one could say much against it. Bapu himself acted on my behalf, and explained my decision to those who were managing the institutions. My last trip to jail was in the 1942 Movement, and I was released in 1945. I had done some more thinking during that time, and decided that after my release I must do scavenging work, so as to help in 'the raising of the lowliest'.

in consequence of the missive, How can Lizzy just write him off..., penned by Karen 2L
When they were gone, Elizabeth, as if intending to exasperate herself as much as possible against Mr. Darcy, chose for her employment the examination of all the letters which Jane had written to her since her being in Kent. They contained no actual complaint, nor was there any revival of past occurrences, or any communication of present suffering. But in all, and in almost every line of each, there was a want of that cheerfulness which had been used to characterize her style, and which, proceeding from the serenity of a mind at ease with itself and kindly disposed towards every one, had been scarcely ever clouded. Elizabeth noticed every sentence conveying the idea of uneasiness, with an attention which it had hardly received on the first perusal. Mr. Darcy's shameful boast of what misery he had been able to inflict gave her a keener sense of her sister's sufferings. It was some consolation to think that his visit to Rosings was to end on the day after the next, and a still greater, that in less than a fortnight she should herself be with Jane again, and enabled to contribute to the recovery of her spirits by all that affection could do. (Beginning of Chapter 34) We are all subjected occasionally to a person who offends us in some way. Ruining Jane's life would be a most powerful reason for Elizabeth to write Mr. Darcy off. What I mean by that is that she would never want to see him again and would always remember him as being a most detestable person. As the old saying goes, "Time heals all wounds", and it is obvious that Elizabeth wishes to do whatever she can to aid in her sister's recovery. |

Dating á la Evolutionary Psychology
Dear y'all,
I thought I should share my knowledge and what I have been learning lately in my evolutionary psychology module. Now you may not know this but evolutionary psychology has a few very interesting points in human dating, which may be of interest to you.
I will be putting up a series of posts about different points and topics on psychology and apply it to real life situations, so if you find this post interesting you should be on the lookout for the upcoming posts with á la psychology on it!
"Evolution has favored women who prefer men possessing those attributes that confer benefits and who dislike men possessing those attributes that impose costs."
Still I see loads of women, young and old, going through the same types of problems every day. It seems as though we always seem to 1 shape men to be good for other women or 2 just been hurt and meet the great guy (that the previous girl has shaped) and fuck him up by not being ready. It is all a vicious circle!
That may sound a bit simple and perhaps really untrue, since some of us do not ever leave the troubling man as he still gives us some good days.
But to my point. If selection really favored women who prefer men possessing the good attributes and disliked men who possess attributes that bring us more sorrow than happiness; then why the hell do I see all these great women with looser guys?!!?!??!?!
These women are giving all their best to these men, their youth, life, children, love and they are doing all this AND being patient.
All this time this knowledge has been here and it may sound soooo simple; to require MORE from men! To only take what you truly deserve!!! I cannot stress this enough. AND once that guy does come along; make sure you are ready for him.
And now I know this is true because I as other women have also been in a relationship where I was the primary person that was giving, the one being patient. For a little over 3 years, I did this.
I gave that man all my energy, money, love, passion, understanding, motivation, WELL YOU NAME IT!
And all I got in return essentially was a slacker!
He was slacking in all the areas of his life and today I feel sorry for him! I really do hope that he will be able to find another woman that is as dedicated as I was to him, and that this time around he will be ready for it.
Although it took me ages to realise what I actually deserved, I finally did!
I can finally give myself the chance to be natural selections prime woman! The kind of woman that will be successful on her OWN and in the future in a successful Relationship.
I will take my time and find a man that truly appreciates all parts of me.
So should you!
Now this process may be more difficult if there are children involved, I appreciate that. However: if you do not have kids; then put that man in his place and make him realise that it takes more to deserve what you are giving him and if that does not work then FUCKING MOVE ON!
It may seem as though there are no fish in the sea but work on yourself, focus on yourself AND YOU WILL FINALLY ATTRACT THE RIGHT FISH! A DESERVING FISH!
Stop being so afraid of; whatever demons you are fleeing, by constantly having the need of being with someone. Now if it is not any problems about a specific whatever, you may just be fleeing the fact of being alone.
I have my sister; Paow. She is my soulmate and makes my loneliness not feel lonely at all!
& Once that man comes along I will be ready for him.
So find your Paow and work on yourself & you WILL be the woman that Evolution favors!
until next time!

Advice straight from my bed!
Love always!

Tell me about Werner the Cat.
Lauren: Werner is a 10-month-old Bengal cat who weighs 11 pounds. He's a fancy cat, and we won't tell you how much he cost. Yes, we bought our cat. Aside from his pedigree and beautiful Lynx-like pelt, he's a large muscle-y monster: he enjoys terrorizing our tuxedo cat, Anna, who I rescued as a kitten. Currently, we're teaching him how to play fetch and Jozeph is good at being the alpha of the house, pinning Werner to the ground and carrying him by the scruff to be locked in the bathroom for a time out.
Lauren, what's your favorite photo you've recently taken and what are favorite pieces of art in the house?
I'm working on a series of firework collages from this past 4th of July. I mocked them up rather small and have to remake them larger so I can print them up 30x40. I was up in the 601 building on 26th Street and had a great view of the New York City fireworks display, which made for some pretty great images. My favorite piece of art is an image given to me by my old mentor, Quentin Bacon, of a ballerina shot on large format Polaroid transfer for a Breast Cancer fundraiser. It's dark and blurry and beautiful and encapsulates my love of both dance and photography.
If you could take one Brooklyn neighborhood, lift it out of New York and plant it in some other city, which hood would you take and where would you put it?
Jozeph: The difficult thing about that question is that moving any part of Brooklyn out of New York City would cause it to lose it's inherent qualities, the unique piece it plays in an ever-changing, dynamic city. Can we just move a certain neighborhood to it's seven-to-ten-years-ago self?
Could you tell me a little about some of your favorite pieces of art or design in your apartment? (Did you ever build that wall-of-windows?)
Jozeph: We didn't build the wall of windows, though one of our neighbors did. My favorite piece of art is a series of three prints by a folk artist from Arizona named Ted Degrazia. My grandmother bought them from him at his studio in Tucson shortly before he died and had him sign them. They are slightly atypical from his more famous work, but they hold a very sentimental place in my collection. He supposedly hid hundreds of paintings in the Arizona desert after he learned the IRS would tax any income made on the paintings after his death. A map exists, somewhere, and I'd like to get my hands on it. I also wouldn't give up any of Lauren's photographs, even if she refuses to hang most of them in the apartment.
What's your favorite thing about your neighborhood?
Lauren: We live on a predominantly Hasidic block in South Williamsburg/Bed-Stuy, across from the Marcy Projects. We are never at a loss for interesting family interactions, rituals, and cultural events. For its lack of nightlife it remains a relatively dynamic and lively neighborhood.

Barriers to Entry
High Upfront Capital Investment
· Capital expenditure requirements for setting up a DOOH service provider includes digital equipment needed for transmitting contents and advertising such as digital screens, media players and speakers.
· A new provider will need to attract talents to form a content development team to create high quality contents to be shown in the digital screens and to maintain a technical team to install, maintain and service the equipment in the transit vehicles.
· Hence, it would be extremely challenging for a new provider to compete efficiently against our Group.
Exclusive Agreements
· Our Group has signed an exclusive agreement with RapidKL, which owns the largest bus network in Kuala Lumpur, to be its DOOH transit media provider in all Rapid KL Buses.
· Exclusive agreements with the transit operators make it difficult for new players to enter the market and take over contracts with transit operators.
· Transit providers may prefer to renew its collaboration with existing media providers if they have built a trustful relationship with those industry players.
· Operationally, it is also difficult to frequently change media service providers as different operators own and use different forms of equipment and technology, and a change in operator would entail a massive and lengthy redeployment of systems and equipments.

How to contribute
Bevendean, October 1906
Image reproduced with permission from Brighton History Centre
'The Domesday Book' of 1086 recorded the manor of Bevendean, 'Beofa's valley', to be worth £6 and held by one Walter from William de Warrenne. It was eventually divided between two estates, Lower and Upper Bevendean, which were acquired by the corporation in November 1913 and January 1940 respectively; the whole Bevendean area was annexed by the county borough from Falmer parish on 1 April 1928. Lower Bevendean Farm was originally accessed from Bear Road by a trackway now known as Bevendean Road and had an eighteenth-century farmhouse, but the buildings were later demolished to provide the open space now known as Farm Green between Auckland Drive and Bevendean School. Upper Bevendean Farm survives however, and has a late-nineteenth-century farmhouse in Warren Avenue, Woodingdean.
A growing estate The first development of the Lower Bevendean estate came in the early 1930s when the corporation extended its housing from South Moulsecoomb up the valley onto Bevendean land: thus 85-123 and 110-120 The Avenue (eastwards from the cross roads at the western end of Manton Road), plus Lower Bevendean Avenue, Upper Bevendean Avenue and Manton Road, are now a part of Bevendean. At about the same time, the Widdicombe Way/Bevendean Crescent area was developed privately and was also known as part of the Bevendean estate, but it is now normally counted as part of the Moulsecoomb district.
Post-war developments With a pressing need for new homes in the post-war period, the greater part of the Bevendean housing estate was rapidly developed higher up the valley from 1948 by the corporation, which named the roads after English castles. The population of Bevendean is now around the 4,000 mark. Bevendean Barn, at the corner of Auckland Drive and Heath Hill Avenue, was used as a chapel for the estate from 1953, but it was replaced in 1963 by the Church of the Holy Nativity, a Modern-style building in brick, mottled knapped-flint and cobbles by Richard Melhuish Ariba. The industrial estate at The Hyde was developed from 1955; the first factory was Elizabeth English shoes, followed by Hibberd furniture, Brighton Sheet Metal works, Redifon, Canada Dry and Gulton Europe.
Harrimonds, where my Mum and lots of other Bevendean women worked was also in the Hyde. Redifon was the old Shoe Factory and Gulton was also something else before it was Gulton. Does anyone remember ? I'm also pretty sure that Canada Dry was formally Hooper Stroove.
There is a footpath that runs from Lower Bevendean and leads to Kingston, near Lewes, crossing the Falmer to Woodindean Road en route. As you walk along this path, about halfway between Lower Bevendean and the Falmer-Woodingdean Road, there was a house, which was derelict during my childhood but now sadly demolished. We were told that it was the home of a sailor (I don't know how true that is) but we throroughly enjoyed playing in it. My mother would have had a fit had she known! Does anyone else remember this house?
Gee Vernon - We used to do the the same trip as 10 to 12 year olds in the late 1950s - what an adventure, including a quick newt hunt in Falmer pond. If we had the money we would bus back, if not, then a slow walk back up the Lewes Road was on the cards for a bunch of tired lads on a long summer's day. Since we set off from upper Bev, I do not recall any houses on our route - but the freedom and joy remains as a very fond memory.
I used to live in Norwich Drive, Lower Bevendean, until my parents moved us to another part of town in 1976. I would love to hear from anybody who went to the school, up until that time.
Hi my father George (nicknamed Paddy) was amongst many local people who helped partially self build the vicars house behind the Church of the Holy Nativity. If I remember correctly the first vicar there was Father Chapman. We moved from Lower Bevendean to Cheshire in 1966 and I now live in Auckland, New Zealand. Fond memories.
Did any of you know Miss Gunn? She now lives in my care home, Meadowcroft in Shoreham-by-Sea, and will be reaching the grand age of 100 on the 22nd February. I was trying to get some of her past pupils to attend a birthday party on the day at 3pm. Anyone who would remember her and would like to come, please email me on firstname.lastname@example.com. Thank you.
The name of Miss Gunn seems familiar. Although the birthday has passed can you give some more details of her? I think I knew her (not in my current name). In what years did she teach at Bevendean? We moved to Heath Hill Avenue in 1951. The house was then - maybe still is - at the far end of the road at the junction of Auckland Drive. The semi was next to the cow and horse fields and we often had the cows in our garden. Father Chapman was indeed the vicar and Miss Passmore was his sort of religious sidekick. Everything revolved around The Barn Church of the Holy Nativity that seems to have been renamed the Church of the Holy Nativity. Down from the church was a road of prefabs. Going down passed those was The Avenue and as we went down, between the houses on the left, we could climb up what we called Jacobs Ladder - a great many steps! - to reach, via a short cut, Bear Road where our grandparents lived. We did everything on bikes and by walking.
There is a concrete circle approx 20 feet in diameter, north of the water reservior at Bevendean and between the cow field back of Moulsecomb. Does anyone know what this once was, (looks like a mini cycle track)? I found it whilst out running, looking for a short cut to the new Brighton football stadium at Falmer. Once on top of the hill you can see the new arched roof of the stadium.
I remember Father Chapman & Miss Passmore, as I attended Sunday school at the Barn Church & my brother was a choir boy there too. As a younger person I would often walk to Falmer pond with my father Doug Cole whilst taking the dogs for a walk. We would go newting in the pond which was a bit dangerous at the time - all the Health & Safety freaks would be in despair if they had seen it as it was then!
Re Kate Holmes. I currently live in the last house in Heath Hill Avenue, I am attached to one neighbour who is the corner house joing Auckland. Just to let you know, my dad, Robert Lee, grew up in Auckland Drive and was over the moon when I moved here as it had such good memories. We also adore living here. Also I would love to see some old photos of this area if anyone has any.
Hi Natasha. I lived just around the corner in Auckland Drive from 1950 to 1970. A family called Clark lived in your house, adjoining were the O'Flaherty's then the Bulbecks, Whites and then us (Whatmans). I believe next door in Heathhill Avenue were the Robinsons. I split my knee open on the lamp post outside your house trying to ride my little sister trike down Walmer Crescent and hitting the kerb. Happy days.
My sister still lives in Norwich Drive (Margaret). I lived there with my parents, Bert and Marcelle, and five brothers and sisters. I remember the school: Mrs Cross, Mr Webb, Miss Gunn, Mr and Mrs Maskell. Harry Burns from the pub, the swing in the woods. riding my bike down the bank from Norwich Drive to Heathhill Avenue and not forgetting all the floods in Bodiam close.
Hi there Geoff I lived in Walmer Crescent for a few years and was also the milkman around Bevendean. Gulton used to be called West Instrument's.
Re: the first question. Gulton Europe was originally known as West Instruments. It still retains that name to this day as it's brand and trading name. Despite having had several different owners, it is still essentially the same business, manufacturing temperature controllers.
I wrote on this page in 2010 and I am back in Brighton (and Lower Bevendean) between 29th April and 2nd May 2013 visiting my roots (78 Auckland Drive between 1951 and 1966) etc. If anyone is around who has a terrific memory it would be nice to catch up - email@example.com - Many thanks

Fight ends with stabbing at Millbrook Walmart | Crime
MILLBROOK, AL (WSFA) - Police say an ongoing feud between a group of people started with an altercation and ended with a stabbing at the Millbrook Walmart on Wednesday night.
Police were dispatched to the Walmart on Kelley Blvd. around 8 p.m. Wednesday to the scene of a fight. When they arrived, they located 32-year-old Marbury resident Aaron Wilcox suffering from two stab wounds to his upper torso.
The victim told authorities he was approached by two white males and a white female he'd had problems with in the past. The verbal altercation turned physical. The victim said that while he was fighting with one of the males, he felt a pain in the area of his ribs and stomach. The individuals then ran unto a nearby business before officers could arrive on the scene.
Wilcox was transported to a Montgomery hospital with serious to life threatening injuries. He is still listed in critical condition at this time.
Millbrook Police and Alabama State Troopers were able to locate the suspects inside the nearby business. Detectives have placed a 17-year-old white male juvenile under arrest for assault second degree. The juvenile has been charged as an adult and placed in the Elmore County Jail. The suspect's identification cannot be released until he has been certified as an adult by a judge.

Skoda has confirmed its 2010 Intercontinental Rally Challenge entry for Guy Wilks and will unveil the Fabia S2000 at this week's Autosport International Show in Birmingham.
The British driver signed for the Skoda UK Motorsport team last week and will start his program at next week's Monte Carlo Rally. The precise details of Wilks' program are as yet undecided, but he will contest at least seven rallies in order to challenge for this year's IRC title.
Beyond Monte Carlo, the other event which has been confirmed is the penultimate IRC round of the season, October's Rally of Scotland – an event the 28-year-old won on his debut in a Fabia S2000 last year.
Wilks and co-driver Phil Pugh completed a pre-Monte Carlo test in the Fabia just before Christmas, running 62 miles close to Grenoble.
"I am very excited about the season ahead and driving for Skoda in the IRC," said Wilks. "Our victory in Scotland last year showed what potential the Fabia S2000 has. It's a fantastic car to drive and it suits my driving style.
"This year's program has come together incredibly quickly, and everyone at Skoda UK Motorsport is highly motivated to succeed. You can guarantee that Phil and I will start every rally with one thing on our minds – and it will involve driving as fast as we possibly can."
Robert Hazelwood, head of Skoda UK Motorsport added: "Our participation in the 2010 IRC brings added excitement to the brand and we are looking forward to the season ahead. Guy Wilks, Phil Pugh and the Fabia proved what is possible by winning last year's Rally of Scotland. The IRC is a demanding series and the opposition is world class, yet we believe Skoda UK Motorsport has a strong package and the ability to do well at every rally we contest."

Shave, No Haircut
I was travelling on business to the Midwest and had a chance to catch up with an old college buddy. We went out for some drinks and got pretty buzzed. As his house was nearly an hour from the bar and my hotel was around the corner and had two beds in the room, I invited him to spend the night with me. I decided to take a shower before bed and came out of the bathroom naked. I keep my privates totally shaved, and my buddy told me how hot that looked. He asked if he should do the same, and I offered to shave him "down there." After a shower, I lathered up his privates and proceeded to shave every bit of hair off of that area. He was clearly excited and I couldn't resist the urge to give him oral. Before he was finished, we went to the bed where we gave each other oral. It was a total turn-on for me. We spent the night in each other's arms, kissing and having every type of sex imaginable. I'll always remember that night, and hope to repeat it on my next business trip to his town.
-Leon, 49

When your choice of fashion tells a story- you literally become a billboard of truth. This vid is another reason why Rachel Roy is one of my favorite designers. Such choice collaborations- as this one between Roy and Brasilian musician, Seu Jorge are brilliant.
I love when creative expression wreaks with soul- and in this particular case soulful music. The warm accessories and eclectic handbags are definite highlights! This collection is very tell-tell in regards to how music and fashion are virtually synonymous- when done in true essence.
And, on another note, I'm soooo beyond thrilled to learn of a new musician. Seu Jorge is fantastic!

Wealth from the old English word "weal", which means "well-being" or "welfare". The term was originally an adjective to describe the possession of such qualities. The simple fact that some people cannot obtain such technology creates a divide between the so-called "haves" and "have-nots."
The word 'Haves' originated during the age of the Industrial Revolution, when it was used to denote the rich capitalists, who owned land as well as factories. But over the years, its meaning has evolved, and now, in this new era, it defines anyone who can blow off thousands in one shopping spree and still buy a Beverly Hills house at the same time. But there is one thing that has not changed along with the meaning-the power wielded by the haves. It is they who make the rules, while we, the less fortunate ones follow them, or in other words, the 'Golden Rule', followed unconsciously or otherwise by all beings of the Earth.
The word 'millionaire' was first used in 'Vivian Grey' in1876.Since then, it has become one of the most common words in the dictionary, and no wonder at the rate in which the 'haves' are becoming richer. And along with their money, their extravagance is also growing. Reports of lavish parties thrown by socialists, the expensive jewellery brought, and not to mention lists of 'the richest people in the world' are common, followed intently by the all-adoring public. They dominate newspaper reports, news headlines- in other words, they dominate the world. What, more can be said about these people?
1. Half the world - nearly three billion people - live on less than two dollars a day.
2. More than 80 percent of the world's population lives in countries where income differentials are widening
3. Lest 40 percent of the world's population accounts for 5 percent of global income. The richest 20 percent accounts for three-quarters of world income.

When attempting to hit a baseball traveling 90 mph or faster, every fraction of a second matters. That's why Baseball Vision Program's hitting guru Chris McKnight emphasizes the process of seeing the ball as the pitcher delivers it and tracking it on its way to the strike zone—the earlier a player's eyes "pick up" the ball, the more time he or she has to react. By training players' eyes and the reactions of their hands to be in unison, Chris gives them a valuable tool not just at the plate, but in the field. A veteran coach with experience as a manager in the NCAA and as a scout, Chris has developed successful training methods with more than 3,000 students.

Athletes can also hone their talents in climate-controlled, hi-tech practice facilities for tennis, indoor golf, and pickleball—a combination of ping-pong and tennis that's played on a giant plate next to a giant hamburger.
On June 30, 1904 Col. William and Anna Vilas donated a tract of land to become a public park and free recreational space in memory of their son, Henry, who died due to complications from diabetes at a young age. They added numerous improvements over the decade and in 1911, the Henry Vilas Zoo gained its first animal exhibits. Today, the zoo covers 30 acres and features a number of creatures from around the world, ranging from the vanishing chimpanzee and endangered red panda to locals such as the great horned owl and american alligator. The zoo also remains one of the few free AZA-accredited zoos across the country.
Leading up to and following the zoo's centennial, the ReZOOvenation project has expanded the visitor areas, replacing the entrance and gift shop and adding a tropical-rainforest aviary and big-cat complex. A variety of annual events are scheduled, including Halloween at the Zoo, with costumes and stops for sustainable palm-oil candy, and earth day, when children can plant trees to help lower the global temperature just enough for icicles to form. The zoo's many conservation projects also engage the public in protecting the environment and its inhabitants by installing solar-energy panels, sponsoring trips to save endangered orangutans, and collecting old cell phones.
Since the 1950s, Wingra Boats has outfitted groups and individuals for treks along the serene, wake-free Lake Wingra with their fleet of water vessels.

In addition to supplying rentals, the staff keep limbs limber with yoga—performed on dry land or atop paddleboards—and strengthens cores with standup paddleboard lessons. Youngsters get in on the action during camp sessions, where they learn to cast, reel, and ask fishes for any seven cards, or paddle aboard kayaks and canoes. The staff also lead guided tours and birding expeditions, and tuck boats away for the off-season with docking and storage services.

whitehot | July 2008, Paul Chiappe @ Madder 139Paul Chiappe, Untitled 23, 2008, Pencil on Paper, 4 mm, courtesy Madder 139 Paul Chiappe Madder 139 Through August 9, 2008 A few minutes walk from Old Street Tube Station, in a westerly direction will bring you to Whitecross Street. This is a rather self-contained little Street with eccentric numbering. Madder 139 Gallery is next door to 'Carnivale' Restaurant/Shop. When you enter the gallery you enter a hidden world. Many of Chiappe's monochrome drawings of children are so small that you will need a magnifying glass (some are provided) to see them – and then you will struggle to see these micro-miniature faces. But they are there, and each has its own character. These are the instantaneous expressions captured from old photographic portraits randomly encountered, painstakingly copied and sometimes deliberately distorted. But why? Paul Chiappe, Untitled 24, 2008, pencil on paper, under 1 mm courtesy Madder 139 Paul Chiappe, Untitled 25, 2008, pencil on paper, 2mm courtesy Madder 139 Is this just a feat of endurance to capture public attention or a gimmick to capture a market niche? I do not believe that his ultimate purpose and motivation arises from either, although he may have been influenced by both. He is deeply interested in the emotions of the innocent, as they attempt to understand the world that they find themselves in. It is a slow and deliberate investigation into the human condition. And we need such tortuous modes of presentation to make us see the human condition afresh. We are so accustomed to the human face that we find it difficult to perceive its hidden secrets. We need to go on this arduous journey to discover what lies beneath these innocent faces. We see the looks of patient conformity to the dictates of adult authority. We see the dark looks of children who have endured oppression and poverty. Chiappe takes this further and brings out the enigmatic, the ghostly, the transcendent, the sinister, the macabre. Glimpses of childish fancy also break out here and there reminding us of the forgotten world of childhood. There is a gothic element to these portraits which is even more marked in the larger examples. Some of these dominate walls, and retain the blurring and aged quality of old photographs. In some, the details of the face are almost lost in a delicate mistiness - surely another way of making us consider the human face anew. One struggles to perceive the character and nature of the individual – but the battle is not in vain Paul Chiappe, Untitled 26, 2008, 1 mm, courtesy Madder 139 Other large works are dark in both senses of the word. An untitled picture of the façade of an old school is positively nightmarish. A little girl, dwarfed by the huge dark front door, stands solemnly facing us with a darkly enigmatic expression. The quality of the expression is achieved through intensive working over many weeks. It is this concentrated obsessive focus which eventually yields the transcendent quality. Chiappe does indeed make the surface take on a life of its own. At every stage he searches and senses the photograph for subtleties of light and shade on surfaces. Then he invests the paper surface with this information, building it up with layers and layers of fine marks. This has intensified over many workings and reworkings of the face to elicit the inner quality of the psyche. The surface is so alive that one can become transfixed by the stare which it gives forth. It communicates so many deep emotions and nuances of meaning and intention. I would recommend viewing this exhibition.

Army of Darkness (Director's Cut) (1992) Review
Written by: azathoth
This is the third movie in the "Evil Dead" trilogy, and also the weakest entry. This is still one of my top films, but there is little gore and the humor is substandard compared to "Evil Dead II".
Our usual cast of suspects is back, along with some new people. Sam Raimi ("The Quick and the Dead", "A Simple Plan") once again helms the franchise. Bruce Campbell (TV's "Jack of All Trades" and "The Adventures of Brisco County Jr.") reprises his role of Ash. Embeth Davidtz ("Schindler's List", "Murder in the First") plays Sheila. Bridget Fonda ("Point of No Return", "Frankenstein Unbound") plays Ash's girlfriend Linda. Patricia Tallman (TV's "Babylon 5") has a small role as the Possessed Witch. Ted Raimi plays at least four roles throughout the film. Other important characters are Lord Arthur, ruler of the land and Duke Henry the Red, enemy of Lord Author. This has the largest cast for an "Evil Dead" movie by far.
"Army of Darkness" (AoD) picks up after "Evil Dead II", except this time instead of being hailed as a hero, Ash is now in chains with Henry the Red and his followers on their way to Arthur's castle, with a voiceover by Ash. The prisoners are led to a pit. The first one is pushed in and shortly a gush of blood explodes out of the pit. Ash is next. He fights off one demon, and then someone tosses his chainsaw to him. While slicing away a demon hand flies up and attaches itself to an onlookers face. Ash gets out of the pit and blows away Lord Arthur's sword with his "boomstick" (ah, where did that come from?), which retails for about $109.95 at 'S-Mart.' (Remember, "Shop smart, shop S-Mart")
Ash gets the royal treatment, complete with ladies feeding him grapes. Here Ash gets really uppity and acts like a jerk; this is a part of the film that disappointed. After wiping out another demon ("Yo, she bitch! Let's go!"), the wise man figures out that the "Necronomicon" must be retrieved to stop the demons from their continuous attacks. Ash doesn't much care, he just wants to go home, but when Sheila gets carried off he decides to go. In the midst of all this is a great scene of Ash and the blacksmith creating a cyborg hand to replace his previously sawed off one. (Right after he get his new hand he gets to throw out a great one-liner before kissing Sheila, "Gimme some sugar, baby.") Off goes Ash to retrieve the book, but when he does he must incant the famous phrase "klattu barada nikto".
On the way to the graveyard that houses the Book, he must flee into a windmill to escape the fearsome 'Raimi POV demon'. He gets attacked by mini-Ashs and later splits into two Ashes, one of which is evil. Good Ash still has the shotgun so he blasts Evil Ash in the face and buries him. Score one for the good guys.
Once Ash gets to graveyard, hijinks ensure, including him fumbling the incantation and a tribute to the 3 Stooges. He eventually returns to the castle, but his phrase mumbling has brought the army of the dead to life, including Evil Ash. A nicely done battle ensues. But does Ash get back home? Actually it depends. See the SPOILERS below.
This version has a very nice video transfer. Music and audio FX are fine. The cinematography is not as good as "Evil Dead II"; it is more conventional. The acting is good all around, even the skeletons. The action scenes are great. The humor is at times a bit silly and forced, but in other scenes spot on. AoD does not have nearly as much gore as the previous ED movies, but still a lot of violence. The visual FX are really good, even the CGI'd army of the dead.
This film lost some points for some excessive silliness and Ash acting like a complete jerk for a fair bit of the movie. This will appeal to a wider audience than the first two ED movies. I would suggest a buy. AoD would be a good party film.
The director's cut includes the alternate ending. In this ending Ash messes up the incantation again and goes way into the future, where he finds himself in some post-apocalyptic world, including a fallen Statue of Liberty a la "Planet of the Apes". The original ending has Ash back in his time period working at S-Mart, but a demon followed him. After taking care of the demon, he delivers another classic line right before kissing a woman, "Hail to the King, baby."

Jessica Patton CBE/PES Coordinator AHEC of the Plains Plainview, TX Nurse Friendly Rewarding Interdisciplinary Teamwork in Health Care Teamwork is key in most industries today, but especially important in health care, where several health professionals are working toward a common goal: to cure a patient. Interdisciplinary teamwork is essential to health care in order to provide the best patient care. According to a study by J. Williamson et al, published in Anesthesia Intensive Care, it is estimated that 70% to 80% of medical errors are due to breakdowns in communication and teamwork. Understandably, hospitals must not only train their staff to work as teams instead of independently, but also reward those staff people who function well in a team. There is not much literature specifically related to recognition of teamwork in health care, but many of the strategies which have been successful in business settings can be applied to health care settings. The most successful programs are often programs in which peers recognize each other, furthering the principles of teamwork. The following are suggestions on how employers can institute Peer Recognition programs which reward interdisciplinary teamwork: Shining Star—Peer Recognition: One of the easiest, cost effective and most valuable recognition programs for a hospital to institute is peer recognition. This program is one of the most effective recognition programs, because employees know best which teams communicate well and perform at a high level and which do not. By empowering your employees to take it upon themselves to celebrate a job done well, other employees will be inspired to perform at a higher level also. This program is also very effective because often supervisors do not witness teamwork successes first hand. This program would recognize all members of a team as equals, providing the opportunity for employees who often work behind the scenes or in less "prestigious" disciplines to be rewarded. Employees are provided with an unlimited supply of "Shining Star" forms to write positive feedback about their coworkers. These forms can be delivered through interoffice mail or hand delivered. Team members can write a note to others on their team, thanking them for their extra effort. Shining Star forms can be used to recognize a team after a particularly difficult shift, emergency, or procedure, or simply when a team is "caught" doing a good job. Employees can commend coworkers for behaviors such as: Demonstrating friendly, caring service; showing flexibility, making safety a top priority, excellent communication, etc. At the end of the month, Shining Stars can be put on display on a prominent bulletin board and/or each department can hold a celebration for recipients. See "Motivating Your Workforce Toward High Performance" by Gregory P. Smith. http://www.chartcourse.com/articlehighperf.html "In Appreciation" Newsletter Column—Peer and Supervisor Recognition Again, peer recognition has proven to be more effective in the business world to motivate employees. This theory can be easily applied to the health care world by including a column written by employees about their coworkers. This is a more publicized way to recognize teamwork and encourage it among all staff in your hospital. Tie the "In Appreciation" column in with your Shining Star program. The team with the most "stars" for the month is recognized. Include specific names and titles of each team member, further highlighting the interdisciplinary makeup of the team. Supervisors can use this column as an outlet for recognizing outstanding teamwork as well. A member of management might pick a memorable case in which many people from several departments worked together to care for a patient, highlighting those involved in the entire process from start to finish. See "Rewarding Cross-Functional Teamwork" by Glenn M. Parker, published in R&D Innovator Volume 3, Number 12 December 1994, #131. Example: To all staff on third shift (Dave Matthews-EMT, Mike Johnson, RN-ER, Laura James, RN-ER, Tim Thomas, MD-ER, Sue Brown-Admitting, Jerri Jones, Tech-Surgery, Joe Hernandez, MD-Surgery, Cindy Roberts, CRNA-Surgery, Tommie Hart, LVN-Med Surge, Mark Johnson, CNA- Med Surge, Jane Dickson-Housekeeping, Richard Howard-Dietary)—On June 23, several patients came to the hospital after a terrible car accident. Thanks for working as a team to care for those injured. Through your dedication, all patients survived and are making a fast recovery. The family sends their thanks. Margie Meeks, RN, BSN-DON Oftentimes, patients and/or family ask one employee to pass along their thanks to the entire team that cared for the patient. This employee is often either the most visible member of the team or the last employee to see the patient receive these thanks from patients. Asking those employees to write a quick note in the "In Appreciation" column is a great way to make sure that all those involved in the process are recognized. Ways for Supervisors to Recognize Interdisciplinary Teamwork: Give verbal praise at staff meeting Prominently displaying a poster with team photographs and accomplishments Place a photograph and a story about the team in the community newspaper Ask the CEO to attend a staff meeting to praise team's performance Send a letter to the CEO detailing the team's work Give each team member a t-shirt, hat, or mug (with his/her name, team's name or hospital's name on it) Ideas from "Rewarding Cross-Functional Teamwork" by Glenn M. Parker, published in R&D Innovator Volume 3, Number 12 December 1994, #131. Additional resources to assist employers in supporting teamwork in their facilities: Kaissi, Amer and Trista Johnson. "Measuring Teamwork and Patient Safety Attitudes of High-Risk Areas." Nursing Economics 21(5), 211-218. 2003. This article discusses how teamwork, or a lack of teamwork, effects patient care. Authors pull statistics from various reports, offering administrators insight as to how nurses feel about how well employees act as a team. The authors also provide a sample "Teamwork and Patient Safety Attitudes Questionnaire" which will help employers determine the attitudes in your specific hospital. This article can be accessed through the internet by subscribing for Medscape.com, a free service providing medical resources. "4 Interdisciplinary Teamwork in Health Care" http://www.med.unc.edu/epic/module4/m4to.htm This website offers a discussion on the importance of teamwork across disciplines in health care, and breaks down the advantages for all involved, including: patients, health care professionals, students and educators, and the health care delivery system. Mostly geared towards teaching students about the importance of interdisciplinary teamwork, and therefore can be applied to reinforcing those principles in a hospital setting. Heil, Gary, Tom Parker and Rick Tate. Excerpt from Leadership and the Customer Revolution. http://www.ricktate.com/lcr.htm This excerpt discusses how an organization can prevent common pitfalls in encouraging their employees to cooperate in teams. Corporations often offer incentives for their employees to perform at a higher level, but those systems in place often bring about internal competition between employees instead of cooperation and teamwork. This article discusses how internal competition inhibits teamwork, and then offers suggestions on how organizations can foster teamwork instead competition. This excerpt is written from the perspective of how corporations can improve productivity, but the principles discussed can be easily applied to hospitals and health care. "Interdisciplinary Health Care Teams: Models of Team Practice." http://dcahec.gwumc.edu/education/session3/models.html This article specifically discusses interdisciplinary teams in health care settings. Discussed is the Interdisciplinary Teamwork System Model by Drinka, including methods, teambuilding, establishing goals, defining tasks and roles, pitfalls, leadership, communication, conflict resolution, and possible outcomes.

Gainesville Daily Register
ERA — Kason Reeves did it all Friday night.
Passing, running and even kicking – the Sacred Heart freshman played like an upperclassman in the Tigers' 27-6 win over Era that spoiled the Hornets homecoming.
"(Kason) has been off and on a little bit this year," Sacred Heart coach Dale Schilling said. "We've played a couple of very physical teams the two games before this – he took a couple of shots. Luckily we had a bye week last week so he could get his mind right."
Reeves' mind was in the zone as he and the Tigers took on the Hornets. The signal-caller threw for two touchdowns and ran in another, while also connecting on 3 of 4 point after touchdown kicks.
On the night, Reeves finished with 273 yards on 15 of 25 passing, including touchdown throws of 65 and 51 yards. He also ran a 21-yard touchdown up the right side of the Tiger offense to begin the scoring on the team's first possession.
"We thought we could throw on them coming into the game," Schilling said. "We knew they ran a Cover 2 and we would have some openings."
Isac Walterscheid was Reeves' favorite target on the night, catching six passes for 122 yards. The sophomore caught a 22-yard touchdown pass to put the Tigers' up 14-0 late in the first quarter and added another score on a 51-yard pass late in the second quarter – the game's final points.
Sacred Heart (2-0) came out firing on all cylinders, scoring 21 points in the first quarter alone. All three scores came from different variations of plays – a run, pass and a kick return.
"We really pushed over the last two weeks to come out and play intense football from the start," Schilling said. "The last two games we didn't and it hurt us, so the biggest thing we pushed was being intense to start the game."
Era (2-3) found the scoreboard late in the first quarter when quarterback Jacob Metzler found a wide-open Bobby Riley up the left hash marks for a 63-yard touchdown.
The Tigers answered the Hornets' touchdown quickly when John Paul Hesse found a lane in ensuing kickoff, returning it 82 yards for a touchdown to put Sacred Heart up 21-6 with 35 seconds left in the first stanza.
"Era jumped right in with the touchdown and got back into the game," Schilling said. "(The kick return) took a lot of air out of their balloon."
Metzler finished with 132 yards passing while completing 6 of 16 attempts. His lone blemish came on an interception to Hesse, which set up Walterscheid's second touchdown before the half.
Sacred Heart's defense stifled Era throughout the night, holding the Hornets to 194 yards of total offense and only one first down in the second half. Hayden Schilling and Luke Cochran both had sacks for the Tigers.
Hesse led Sacred Heart rushing with seven carries for 40 yards. Keith Metzler had 25 yards on six carries.
After two consecutive losses, coach Schilling said he is happy to see his team bounce back but he knows there is still work to do.
"I was surprised we couldn't run the ball as well as we wanted to – I credit Era for that," he said. "I was real proud of how we played over all. It was a good night for us."
