Curriculum Overview
The curriculum at VCOM is innovative and modern. Students assimilate knowledge through instruction which is lecture based or through online modules, reading, small group learning and discussion, laboratory and computerbased student learning clinical tutorials, anatomy and microbiology laboratory experiences, simulated clinical laboratory experiences, physical diagnosis laboratory experiences, and osteopathic manipulative medicine clinical laboratory experiences. Students begin inter-professional early clinical experiences one day per week in the later blocks of the second year and transition to predominately clinical experiences in the third and fourth year. The VCOM curriculum is directed toward the development of a primary care physician. The VCOM faculty believes whether a student chooses primary care or a medical specialty, he or she will benefit from broad based primary care knowledge and a whole patient approach to medical care. The VCOM curriculum includes the most modern medical diagnostic evaluations and evidence based medical care. The VCOM curriculum prepares students well to enter ACGME residency programs. In addition, Osteopathic Principles and Manipulation are taught throughout the four years of the curriculum.
The art of simulation
The Simulation and Educational Technology Center was designed to provide a safe learning environment to promote humanism and professionalism in medicine, critical decision making, and clinical procedural competencies through manikin-based simulation, the Standardized Patient program, and the Clinical Skills program.
Care for those most in need
VCOM faculty and students provide care for patients in international, underserved areas while also fulfilling unique educational experiences. Through VCOM established clinics in Honduras, El Salvador and the Dominican Republic, along with other outreach trips, over 25,000 visits occur annually for patients who would otherwise have no access to healthcare.
Provide geriatric care
The fellowship training program in Geriatrics is designed to provide osteopathic family physicians with advanced training in the specialty of geriatrics. Physicians completing this fellowship will be able to provide comprehensive geriatric care and will be prepared for geriatric certification by the American Osteopathic Board of Family Physicians.

Salem, Oregon (PRWEB) May 11, 2012
The home care industry, mainly catering to the elderly, has seen a dramatic increase in new franchises and startups jumping into this niche in the greater senior care industry. Home care is also referred to as "in home care" and "home health care". The industry has strong growth recently due to the demographics of an aging population and an economy that is forcing many seniors to stay in their own home or live with a family member. The type of care needed determines the level of licensing and skill required of the caregiver. Although family members can be caregivers, there is a need for independent agencies to provide skilled and trained caregivers to fill the gap when family members need to work during the day or live out of town.
The following facts illustrate why the home care industry is growing along with an aging population:
* Every 13 seconds, another American turns 65 years old. That trend will continue for the next 20 years.
* There are 40.4 million seniors in the U.S., 12 percent of the population. In 20 years, that number will total 70 million, or 20 percent of the population.
* More than 27 million of these individuals are over age 70, and more that 1 million are over age 80.
* More than 43 million people in the U.S., 19 percent of the population, provide care for an elderly family member or friend.
Source: Senior Helpers
Long Term Care, a $300 billion per year industry, is being evaluated by the the Senate Committee on Aging. In a recent hearing on April 18th, the Senate committee heard expert testimony on possible solutions to reducing the costs of senior health care. The hearing ,"The Future of Long-Term Care: Saving Money by Serving Seniors", was videotaped and is available on the Senate committee's web site: http://aging.senate.gov/
In Oregon, there is a separate page pertaining to In Home Care that is a part of the Health Care Regulation and Quality Improvement Dept. There has been a notable increase in license applications and registration for home health care providers in the State which is a strong indicator of home care growth in this State as well as others. http://tinyurl.com/6ss6r4n
With improvements in technology and monitoring equipment, skilled in home care providers can both help an elderly client stay at home which is usually their preference, and at the same time save costs in Medicare, Long Term Care insurance, and personal costs of premature institutionalization. In a study done in 2006- 2009 by Avalere Health LLC, - after an initial hospital visit for patients with diabetes, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) or congestive heart failure (CHF) in-home care resulted in an estimated 20,426 fewer hospital readmissions compared to patients with these same conditions receiving other post-acute services. The fewer readmissions saved Medicare an estimated $670 million from October 2006-September 2009.
Two Main Types of Services Provided by In Home Care
The two main types of in home care are based upon the level of skilled care needed. Companionship/Non-medical care can provide a wide range of services from help with grocery shopping and chores to transportation and help with day to day activities.
Complex care includes things such as diabetes managment, catheter care, medication management and administration, and wound care. In Home Care providers that provide these services must involve a licensed medical professional to be in compliance with insurance and State laws. Some In home care agencies will provide both types of services and can customize their program to meet the client's needs.
Know your Providers
With the growth in new agencies, the consumer must be educated as to the level of services that the In Home Care agency can provide. Important questions to ask when determining the best choice for your loved one are:
How are the staff trained? How often are employees supervised?
Do you have registered nurses overseeing your agency program? Having nursing professionals involved in the training and oversight of care typically provides higher quality of services.
In Home Care Agencies
Home care providers act as agencies and may be a national business with State and local franchises or offices, an extension of hospital or senior housing services, or locally owned boutiques owned by trained caregivers.
As home care becomes more standardized, regulated, recognized by insurance, and accepted as a plan for seniors to stay at home longer, the growth of the home care industry will hopefully include the growth of savings in costs over time. At $300 billion per year in costs for long term care, there is plenty of room for cost reduction without reducing the quality of care for our aging population.

SHA-School Calendar
Play is a fundamental component of any early childhood setting, including Kindergarten.
"Play nourishes every aspect of children's development - it forms the foundation of intellectual, social, physical, and emotional skills necessary for sucess in school and in life. Play "paves the way for learning".
-Canadian Council on Learning (Early Childhood Learning Knowledge Centre), "Let the Children play: Nature's Answer to Early Learning", Lessons in Learning (Ottawa: CCL, 2006), p.2
It has long been acknowledged that there is a strong link between play and learning for young children, especially in the areas of problem solving, language acquisition, literacy, numeracy, and social, physical, and emotional skills. Young children actively explore their environment and the world around them through a process of learning-based play. When children are manipulating objects, acting out roles, or experimenting with various materials, they are engaged in learning through play. Both child-initiated free play and more structured play-based learning opportunities should be integral parts of the early learning classroom. Children are offered choices of learning activities that reflect their developmental stages. The learning activities are designed by the Kindergarten team to encourage the children to think creatively, to explore and investigate, to solve problems and engage in the inquiry process, and to share their learning with others.

Ok, I may be a bit tardy to the party but thanks to the magic of DVR I've just managed to catch up on the 2018 Winter Olympic Opening Ceremony. I don't tend to get too excited about the Opening Ceremonies of the Olympic Games. Sure it's cool that the host country gets a chance to display their culture to the world, and I'm sure it's awesome for the individual athletes when they get to walk out with their fellow countrymen/women for all to see, but for the most part it just doesn't do it for me. The ceremony in PyeongChang was no different, at least not at first. Some kids running around stage with a giant tiger and a dragon? Not feeling it. North and South Korean athletes walking out together under one flag? A North Korean athlete and a South Korean athlete carrying the Olympic torch together? Yawn. Gangnam Style playing during the Parade of Nations? Ok, I can get on board with that. That song is fire and I'll fight anyone that says otherwise. But even that wasn't enough to get me on Team Opening Ceremony. I was starting to question why I even bothered wasting two hours watching the event on DVR, but then they sent in the drones and everything changed.
Holy shit that was incredible. If you didn't catch it then I suggest you checkout the YouTube video above. At first it just looks like a cluster of lights moving towards the ski slope, but as soon as they start forming into the shape of a snowboarder…I was practically up out of my seat. After some fireworks and pyrotechnics the drones closed it out by forming the Olympic rings in midair. That was easily one of the coolest things I've seen in a long time. In need more drone light displays in my life, immediately. It honestly blows my mind that they're able to do something like that with drones. I realize that it's all controlled by computers, but I still can't fathom how the drones can be perfectly synced up like that without running into each other. Then again, I have a hard time wrapping my head around how marching bands don't run into each other when they're crossing in front of each other in a formation, so it doesn't take much to get my mind twisted into a pretzel.
The display, which consisted of more than 1200 Intel "Shooting Star" drones, set a Guinness world record for most drones flown at one time. A lot of haters out there are saying that the drone display that was shown on NBC's broadcast of the Opening Ceremony Friday night was actually a recording from back in December. That doesn't make it any less impressive and I wish you wouldn't push your anti-drone agenda on me. I'm not sure there's anything drones can't be used for in this day and age, so we might as well embrace them. Hell I wouldn't be surprised if we see drones delivering fast food to us in the next few years (mostly because I'm really craving Taco Bell right now but I don't feel like getting off the couch). The only thing that would have impressed me more with the Opening Ceremony performance would have been if they recreated the entire Gangnam Style music video, but I suppose there's always the Closing Ceremony. The ball's in your court, Korea. Do the right thing.

Burst water main closes road in Ipswich CBD ... again!
A BURST water main forced the closure of Limestone St on Thursday night and caused "large amounts of water and clay" to spew on to the street, police said.
Both lanes of Limestone St were closed between East St and Ellenborough St after a pipe under the footpath burst around 11.55pm on Thursday.
Police attended and the street remained shut until 4am, when Queensland Urban Utilities (QUU) workers fixed the burst.
"We had crews on site at around 2am, and they found and isolated the burst," a QUU spokeswoman said.
"Because of the time we had no reports of customers without water, and everything was repaired before 6.30am."
Burst water mains have plagued the Ipswich CBD since 2009, when a leak caused a large hole in the road at the intersection of Brisbane and East Sts.
Councillor Andrew Antoniolli said it was up to QUU to decide whether the network needed work.
"It's a QUU asset ... when it was Ipswich Water and there were regular breaks we'd certainly take them into account," Cr Antoniolli said.

Wedding Etiquette: Who Pays? Planning a wedding doesn't just stop at a wedding. You have to plan the bridal shower, the engagement dinner, rehearsal dinner, publish announcements of becoming engaged and of course the wedding reception. So whats the deal? Does the brides father still pay for all of the above, or are things split down the middle? The Wedding: Many people in current days believe that the couple should pay for their own wedding ceremony. It is their wedding after all! It is okay to accept money from your parents as well because naturally they will probably want to … Read More →

How Do You Eat An Elephant?
So you've got those great plans bubbling around inside. A vision for your life and how you want it to be. But sometimes it can seem a long way from where you are now to where you want to be. And for this reason many people don't even start. Too overwhelming. And the procrastination takes over.
And we can often make the mistake of seeing other people's achievements as overnight success. We don't see the hard yards, or the sacrifice that has got them to where they are, one small step at a time.
The important thing with any great vision is to chunk it down. Bite size pieces.
And to ask yourself some great questions.
Questions like…
What one thing could I do today to move me toward my goals?
And then to do it!
Just one small thing each day and in a year you've done 365 new things. By that stage you may well be past that goal and on to the next one! And looking back, it might surprise to realise just how easy it was.
So how do you eat an elephant? One bite at a time.

Effect of drying process on the production of 5-hydroxymethylfurfural in citrofortunella microcarpa at two different maturity stages Teeradate Kongpichitchoke; Hsu, Jue-Liang; Huang, Tzou-Chi (International Cooperation and Development Fund, 2015)
Citrofortunella microcarpa is a well-known citrus fruit as a good source for flavonoids and antioxidant compounds in peels and seeds. However, they are leftover from juice industry. 5-Hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) is well-recognized for its dominant role in immunology field, and commonly found in thermal-processed products. Thus, this study aimed to first time report HMF discovery from dried C. microcarpa waste. A conventional hot air drying method was used to determine the effects of drying temperatures (30 - 70 °C) and times as well as the maturity ...
Number of hydroxyl groups on the B-ring of flavonoids affects their antioxidant activity and interaction with phorbol ester binding site of PKCδ C1B domain: in Vitro and in silico studies Teeradate Kongpichitchoke; Hsu, Jue-Liang; Huang, Tzou-Chi (American Chemical Society, 2015)
Although flavonoids have been reported for their benefits and nutraceutical potential use, the importance of their structure on their beneficial effects, especially on signal transduction mechanisms, has not been well clarified. In this study, three flavonoids, pinocembrin, naringenin, and eriodictyol, were chosen to determine the effect of hydroxyl groups on the B-ring of flavonoid structure on their antioxidant activity. In vitro assays, including DPPH scavenging activity, ROS quantification by flow cytometer, and proteins immunoblotting, and in silico ...

An image is worth thousand words and this can describe how powerful an image is. Even mobile companies are attracting customers with their cameras like front and rare, although most of the companies have dual cameras these days, but differs from the specifications like panoramic views, special aperture and many more additional features. This made techie people to develop some additional and coolest things for their cameras called applications on different platforms or operating systems like Android, iOS and many more. These applications are a nascent phase of editing pics, re-shaping or cropping them and adjusting colours of images.
Applications are raging to peak every day and the market growth is really high. Here we are going to show you the best five photo editing apps for android and iOS platform.
PicLab HD (Android, iOS)
PicLab HD is paid application that runs top in the market for both platforms which helps to create marvellous internet inspirational images you see in the internet these days. Probably it's the best one available in the market with typography, lots of fonts and full control over size, positioning, opacity, rotation and colour which also illustrates, ornamentation and other design elements on top of your image.
Handy Photo (Android, iOS)
Handy Photo is also a paid photo editor application where you can see the best user interface with an editing menu on the corners of the screens. It's one of the most powerful photo editor present in the market. Even though the UI will not work for everyone but the features are really handy where you can feel the price for it.
FxCamera (Android, iOS)
FxCamera comes free on your mobile and helps your camera to record voice while capturing images these are shortly called as video pictures and you can even share this pictures in social networking sites. People can create their own caption while capturing images this can be your tag line where you need to create an album for it separately. This app is the top rated and popular in the free version available in the market for the present.
VSCO Cam (Android, iOS)
VSCO cam's camera functions, features and special effects make you feel awe for using it. There is a free version available in the market presently, but there are in-app purchases available in the application. Photographers can apply a variety of edits and adjust filter for each of them. This app allows users to spread their selfie or images in a wide range of social networking websites.
Adobe Photoshop Express (Android, iOS)
Adobe Photoshop Express comes with minimal features to edit photos. This application comes in both platforms and serves you freely. The best thing that comes with this app is auto-fix and one touch filters where you can do the changes immediately and the slider controls comes with the best fine-tuning features. Also, with this application you can have some other features like red eye correction which makes this app stand in the top list.
It's really hard to predict the market and peoples taste. As and when a new application releases in to the market with different new features people start shifting from their present application. So they have to upgrade them every day and make themselves top in the market.

Mediterranean Couscous Salad
Cherry tomatoes, bell peppers, cucumbers, and eggplant combine with couscous, olives, feta, and basil for a zesty and refreshing Mediterranean salad.
Isn't this salad bright and beautiful? Cherry tomatoes, bell peppers, cucumbers, and eggplant combine with couscous, olives, feta, and basil for a zesty and refreshing Mediterranean salad. It's a great way to get the whole family to eat their veggies – even the eggplant! Not familiar with cooking eggplant? No worries, we've got you covered.
Eggplant is an excellent source of fiber and antioxidants, and has been shown to lower cholesterol, plus it tastes delicious, so it's a great ingredient to use in different dishes. If you have time, the best way to prepare an eggplant is to salt it. Do this simply by cubing the eggplant (leaving the skin on), sprinkling with salt, and leaving it to sit in a colander for 1-2 hours. This process draws out the juices and firms the flesh, so the eggplant will be less likely to soak up all the oil. Remember to rinse off the salt and pat the eggplant dry before cooking! Salting the eggplant isn't necessary, it's just how we do it in our house. This salad is filled with feta, tomatoes, and olives, which makes for a wonderfully Mediterranean flavor. Go ahead and give this colorful dish a try!
Mediterranean Couscous Salad With Roasted Eggplant
Serves 4-6 30min
- 1 large eggplant, skin on, cubed
- 1 cucumber, diced
- 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
- 1 bell pepper, diced
- 1 small onion, diced
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 3 cloves garlic, peeled
- Salt & pepper to taste
- 1 box couscous
- 1 lemon, juiced
- 3/4 cup black olives, sliced
- 1/3 cup fresh parsley, chopped
- 1/3 cup fresh basil, chopped
- 1 1/2 cups feta cheese, cubed
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
- Optional: Prepare eggplant by salting generously and leaving in a colander for 1-2 hours. Before cooking, rinse the salt off, and pat dry with a paper towel.
- Place eggplant, onions, and whole garlic cloves in a pan and toss with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Place in oven and Roast for 15 minutes.
- While the eggplant is roasting, cook couscous according to package directions, then transfer to a large salad bowl.
- Remove baking dish from oven, and transfer garlic cloves to a separate plate. Use 1 or 2 forks to mash garlic cloves into a chunky paste. Coat the eggplant with mashed garlic and set aside to cool.
- Add cucumber, tomatoes, bell pepper, roasted veggie mix, lemon juice, olives, parsley, and basil to the couscous. Toss with 2 tablespoons olive oil to combine. Salt and pepper to taste.
- Gently fold in feta and refrigerate until ready to serve, at least 15 minutes.

Do you feel like your sweet little son or daughter has turned on you? Parenting teens is one of the hardest things you will ever do! Many parents of teens tell us they miss the connection they once had with their children.
Connecting with them can be a challenge as they put their friends first at this age and want to be in charge of their lives.
We have extensive experience helping teens and families come together. It can and does happen! Families just get stuck, and it can feel horrible or hopeless at times. Parents have told us that at moments they feel as if they have failed, are losing their child, or don't even enjoy being around their child any more. Parents have been pleased and amazed at our therapists' ability to connect with even the most resistant or quiet (emotionally shut down) teens. It is an art, and we have had many years perfecting the skill! We love these kids!
We know that underneath the acting out/disrespect or withdrawn/isolation, there is a hurting child who may not know how to express all their confusing or intense feelings (of just being a teen, school problems, family issues, etc). We help parents learn how to manage the roller coaster of emotions and behaviors. Usually our teen clients actually enjoy therapy believe it or not! We often do a combination of individual and family time in therapy. They enjoy having time to express their own "stuff" without parents present. They may do art therapy in our expressive therapy room, sit outside and talk with us, or even go on a walk. Not all teens will open up sitting on a couch and we get that!

Beauty in the imperfection.
It's hard to be creative. A mind full of wonderful ideas always wants to see those visions executed to perfection, and of course we live in an imperfect world. Art in any form can be frustrating when, despite your best efforts, your finished project isn't quite what you had pictured when you started.
After a lifetime of creating, I've been learning that the true mark of an artist is learning to find the positives even in a project that doesn't meet one's own expectations. A painting isn't "scrap" just because one of my lines isn't straight. A drawing shouldn't be erased because my proportions are a little off. Instead, I'm learning to embrace the wabi-sabi in my work.
Wabi-sabi is a Japanese convention that acknowledges the imperfections of the world and encourages people to accept those flaws as innate beauty. Based in Buddhism, which teaches that all things are impermanent and that desires bring suffering, the concept of wabi-sabi has become a staple of Japanese aesthetics.
Examples of wabi-sabi are everywhere. Have you ever passed a crumbling, abandoned building and found yourself realizing how beautiful its emptiness truly is? And what about an oxidized patina on metal? The variations in a rose's petal spiral is an example of wabi-sabi. Hell, even Cindy Crawford's mole could make the list!
This concept of finding beauty in an imperfection is applicable not only to the arts, but to life as well. We'd all like to be that lucky person for whom everything always seems to turn out perfectly all the time – but let's face it, most of us will never be that person! It's important to realize that even failure has an upside, and that just because an endeavor didn't work out the way you'd planned, there's still so much to be gained and appreciated in the pursuit.
Life is imperfect. Embrace the beauty.

At the time of writing we've had an iPad for a little over four weeks. Here at Macworld we were lucky enough to have American friends ready to help out with a little shopping here, and a FedEx delivery there.
But not everybody is as lucky. Most people now have to wait till the end of May before the iPad hits the UK. You think this is a bad thing? It's certainly frustrating, but it means we're your guinea pigs, testing the iPad to bits before you have to justify your purchase.
After all, unlike a PC or a phone, the iPad isn't a necessity. Like many Mac fans, you may want an iPad, but do you need it enough to justify spending a significant amount of your hard earned cash on one?
Even the most devoted Apple lovers are wondering "what's it for?" and "what does the iPad really do?".
Fear not. Where you have questions, we've got answers. We've had four weeks to get to grips with every aspect of the iPad, and here are our top 40 reasons why you should get an iPad at the earliest opportunity.
1 Browse the fingernet
You can get on the internet everywhere these days: on your iPhone, at work, at home. Why would you need another internet device? Because the browsing experience on an iPad is superb. You can open several pages at once and flip between them just as you can on an iPhone, but the layout fits the screen, the text is a decent size, and images look great. We've also found that using fingers to browse the web is more intuitive than using a mouse and cursor. The iPad is a surprisingly capable and enjoyable web browsing device.
2 Be inspired and write the next bestseller
In Japan, millions of novels have been written on mobile phones. Before computers, you'd have written a dissertation with an HB pencil. Chaucer and Shakespeare wrote their works with bird feathers. The key thing is you can pull the iPad out of your bag when inspiration hits. The iPad is a great writing tool: you have a screen, a keyboard and a word-processing program, as well as reference materials and internet access. What better tool is there for writing in odd locations, such as in trains, coffee shops, or even in bed.
3 You can travel light
If you'd rather not lug around a heavy bag you'll be pleased to learn that the iPad weighs 680g, considerably less than a laptop (half the weight of the MacBook Air). So if you have to travel a lot that's a good reason to take the iPad and leave the laptop at home, giving your back and shoulders a break. Also, at 13.4mm thick you can fit the iPad comfortably in your bag – there is no need to carry around a separate laptop bag (which is ideal if you are getting on an airplane). We expect that salespeople will adopt the iPad quickly for presenting on the move.
4 You can access your Mac from your iPad
If you are worried about leaving your Mac at home and relying solely on the iPad fear not. You can use the iPad to access your Mac even when you're away from your desk thanks to LogMeIn Ignition (£17.99, http://secure.logmein.com), one of best apps on the App Store. Install LogMeIn on your Mac (the LogMeIn Pro2 desktop software costs £41.20) and leave it running, now you can access the Mac from your iPad and use Mac OS X remotely. Forgotten a file? Need to do something on your Mac but only have your iPad? No problem. All you need is an internet connection
5 You'll be playing your favourite game
As a gaming device the iPad has lots going for it. The display is large and gorgeous, the processor is snappy, and the multimedia interface allows for innovative ways to play. Plus, the App Store is a model of instant gratification with hundreds of cheap games a download away. Many are HD versions of iPhone games at higher prices, but they're still inexpensive in comparison to most standard PC games. The iPad's implementation of many games is superior to anything the consoles have attempted. Nintendo and Sony should be concerned.

CAIRO – The daughter of a former MP for Italy of Values party Franco Barbato reverted to Islam.
Manuela Franco Barbato, now Aysha, wrote on her Facebook account "The hijab is my way, the way that Allah has chosen for me,", Il Giornale daily reported on May 26.
The decision of reverting sparked uproar across Italy.
"I am proud of the purity of my soul. This is the divine law, who am I to object?"
Aysha decided to revert to Islam while studying in the Università L'orientale of Napoli.
Now approaching graduation, she moved to India with her husband and two children.
Italy has a Muslim population of some 1.7 million, including 20,000 reverts, according to the figures released by Istat, the national statistics agency.

Ive had my Volkswagen Corrado VR6 for 2 years now, ive always been a lover of this great looking car since the day I saw a sweet VR6 storm punch it up my road, I turned round and thought ive never heard anything sound so sweet and I had to get one.
I had a Renualt 19 16v with Hill power stage before, and I thought that was pokey, but it seems pretty slow now, the Corrado is something else the power delivery is so smooth all the way through.

In 1995 I debated whether to get a Corrado for too long. All Storms sold out very quickly but I managed to buy a new 'standard' VR6 in March 1996. Never regretted it - but it hasn't been cheap to maintain now that car has covered 140,000 miles. Engine still pulls really well - Mobil 1 oil always used from new. A great all-round drive despite front-end being a bit heavy. Kept car standard as this will be desirable IF one day it gets sold. That will be a sad day indeed.

The Corrado is definitely a classic car to own, to buy a decent one that has not been thrashed or seriously messed around with is somewhat hard to do.
If you own a decent one and can afford to keep it then I think within in time they will be come a major classic.
They say that the Corrado are few and far between, I find this hard to believe, okay so they are not roaming around in droves but hey, on no less then four occasions in one day I had flashing lights and waves from other Corrado… Read Full Review

The Volkswagen Corrado is a low down sporty car with great looks and nice bucket style seats with pretty good handling. Mine was a 1.8 16v and had seen a hard life. It had over-heating problem, head gasket problem, brake problems you name it I had the problem. I'm not saying they are all like mine was but be careful who has been driving it before… Read Full Review

This is my second Volkswagen Corrado VR6. I started off with an 85 Scirocco. Absolutely loved the car. Drove it till I blew a rod. My mechanic had a 1990 Corrado G60 for sale. Test drove it and thought "Wow! this car feels even better than the Scirocco. "Took care of that car and was planning to keep it for a while. I had just replaced the heater-core ($1,700.00) when my mechanic called and told me he had a near mint 1993 VR 6 with 122,000 mi. on it.
Again, I test drove the 1993, and… Read Full Review

This Volkswagen Corrado VR6 is my fisrt car. I was actually regretting getting the Corrado I got because of the previouse owners horrible relationship with the car. Duct tape, and electrical tape are all over, and connections are loose, and not pluged. However, when I drive it all the problems are so far away that I am more than thrilled I bought this car. She's more to me than that. She is my sancutary and my confidant. I love the way she sounds, and handles. I love it when all the other boys… Read Full Review

Just bought a Volkswagen Corrado VR6 and drove my first 50 miles which has definitley confirmed that I am happy with the car. I have wanted this car since I was a teenager because of it's looks alone and was not disappointed with the performance. This car is deceptive in that it is faster than it feels which is a sure good sign.
Having owned a lightly modified 205 1.9 for 3 years I'm sure the handling is better (as well as the performance but I suppose that is obvious) I have also driven most… Read Full Review

The Volkswagen Corrado VR6 is an amazing sports car! It's my first car, and I've only had it for 4 months, but so far I'm so excited about it. I can't wait to modify it (she's mostly stock) I've had to replace the heater core :( and the CV boots. Other than that though, I am impressed! Why doesn't VW make another one like it??? I love the speed-activated spoiler and the looks I'm going to get (I haven't driven it all that much). The quality of it is excellent and way ahead of its time… Read Full Review

I bought my first Volkswagen Corrado VR6 Sports Car in 2001 and it has been the best car I have ever owned due to the comfort levels and performance. It brings a smile to my face every time I see it. It's also one of those cars you can't help but look back at once you've parked it up. It's suprisingly economical and I average around 30mpg. I had to move to the USA last year due to my job changing and I hunted around for about a month looking at other cars eventually deciding on a Toyota Celica… Read Full Review

Interested in Adams comments as I'm currently beginning a search for a decent VR6 [or SRC as they are called in the US]

I live in Texas 6 months of the year and will be returning there from England shortly.

I looked at several VR6's when I was last there and found that they really were pretty sad - either thrashed or poorly maintained [or both]

If Adam should read this he may like to contact me, I may be interested in his one - I understand his [and his wife's] feelings!

He can contact me at [email protected]

Though speed isn't everything, there aren't many cars that will out perform the Volkswagen Corrado VR6.
I feel the Corrado VR6 is already a classic!
It's lines and shape, give it an awesome presence on the road, and if left unattended attracts an enormous amount of attention. If often have to educate the unknowing that the Corrado is not a reshaped Golf, and Karmman and not VW built it"… Read Full Review

I bought my VW Corrado VR6 in December 2003 just after Top Gear featured it. I had been on the hunt for one for about 4 months previous to this and was panicking about the prices going through the roof! Full VAG service history, 41K on the clock and one previous owner. The R.A.C. did a full check and found.... a split in the rear wiper blade! The deal was done and another VW added to the stable. Poor old Scirocco.

Poiema Communication
We have gone a long way; starting from man's interior (the thought, social nature) to what the external world is made up of: the word, image, action. Along this way we have been accompanied with R. Barthes' thought that everything already exists; it only needs to be discovered[1]. Man's eternal thought which originates in the Eternal Thought has been the starting point; that has been followed with the word and the image that are the fruit of man's thought, then the Word and the Image that have been born by God's Thought.
We found the starting point in the endless human thought which originates from the Everlasting Thought. It was then followed with the word and the image that were created by human thought, then the Word and the Image created by God's Thought. Persona communicans and communio personarum have been the objective of this creation; these are heading towards the place they were born–Unio Personarum. This journey of man as an individual and as a community is possible owing to the communication process. I communicate, therefore I am. My "I am" has its origin and its end; my communication has its origin and its end in the Perfect Communication, the Holy Trinity. Not only "I am" but also I am Somebody, I am a person. Communication is a kind of process, action, creation, journey, creation. The internal, invisible structure inside man, referred to as self-determination by Karol Wojtyła is the basis of the process. This structure is the creator of every kind of action, including communication and is based upon the two fundamental and principal values: freedom and the truth. This structure allows man to exceed himself towards these values and towards true good. Exceeding oneself, or transcendence in other words, is the person's other name. To be yourself means to exceed oneself towards the values indicated above and in consequence towards the other person. To be yourself means to communicate with others. This lays the foundations for the new communication model which can be referred to as a personalistic model. We might also coin a new notion to describe interpersonal communication, "Poiema Communications". The old Greek poieo (ποιέω), in addition to the everyday uses of "create" and "make", also meant some other meanings which have also been incorporated to other languages. These meanings, to a large extent, express what we understand as communication.
Cz. S. Bartnik enumerates these meanings:
- to produce, create
- to invent, compose, organised in a different way
- to create a word, use the word
- to give rise to a thought, acquire and expand knowledge, create the word-based world
- to create an ideal image, to assume the existence on another world, to transform people and things into colourful images
- to play a role, to assign new roles to people and things, to aspire to establish a new order of the world, to free oneself from material determinism, open up for a better and everlasting world
- to create deep interpersonal, internal and community communication
- to express oneself, to express the world of words, to present and express some of the unattainable, divine world
- to sacrifice oneself for somebody or something, to transfer one's personal world onto somebody, to sacrifice everything for the sake of beauty.
The aspects which seem to be the fundamental ones are: creation of new reality, discovery of the new word with the use of the word, discovery of man's infinity dimensions, the idea of human person's self-realisation, a radical makeover of the world so that it becomes a "better world" of the future. Thus poiema and poiesis signify cognition and creation of another world—the beauty, good, the truth, peace, freedom and eternity[2]. In the context of our reflection, poiema and poiesis signify new communication--the interpersonal one. They also signify a new sphere of man's life--the personal media sphere. An important element of this activity is the word and the person. And what about the image? The word or a collection of words is the image. A person is the image. The image can be expressed with words as the blind, unable to see, are forced to do. Sometimes you need thousands of words to express an image and it is still impossible to express it. The word and the image are the unity, the foundation of today's world's universal language. A person is also the image. This was described in the context of man's creation or non-verbal communication. Thus the word (and the indispensable part of man's history and man's companion – the image) and a person constitute the interpersonal communication – namely Poiema Communication. What is the reason for the word and the person coming into being? This is the thought. What is the result for the word and the person coming into being? This is the action, the act.
Martin Buber (1878-1965) quoted Hasidic teaching and claimed that man's life is composed of three components: the thought, the word and the act. Our objective is to unite them, to "make them one piece"[3], to care for the integrity between speaking, looking, acting and being[4].
Thus the cause (the thought) and the result of the word and the person coming into being (the action) create a unity. And upon this unity the person and the community are created (fieri).
Karol Wojtyła's Personalism, which was further developed during John Paul II's pontificate, places the good and person's development in the centre and makes it the main principle. All particular good realised by man as the result of his freedom is assigned to this principle and the good[5]. A person and a community ought to be the objective and the measure of interpersonal and media communication[6]. Communication ought to be the person's affirmation for the sake of the person, and more particularly, for the sake of the person's dignity[7]. Persona humana est affirmanda propter seipsam – this personalistic norm which is the basis for interpersonal and media communication as presented in this reflection was put forward by Karol Wojtyła. All other norms have their basis in the following injunction: persona humana est affirmanda propter seipsam. Communication, dialogue and relationship with the other person built upon these norms allows the subjects engaged in communication to discover the field of moral responsibility for their own fieri and the other man's moral world. This responsibility is visible in a disinterested gift of oneself which comes into being at the thought – the word – the image – the action line. In his communication with the other person, man should continually exceed himself towards this responsibility for his own "I" and the other's "I". In his freedom man ought to strive to make his relationship with the other person a personal gift expressed through love and solidarity with the other. These relationships become an immanent part of communication which in the course of this dissertation, was referred to as God–human communication: God has become a gift to man and showed man his way towards the other man and his own destination.
The whole dissertation on communication assumed the perspective of an anthropologist, theologian as well as a person employed in the media. Thus this is the synthesis of theory and experience. This work stems from the need to have a say in today's debate on man's place in the media sphere. The personalistic idea of Karol Wojtyła is aired here. It seems, or it is better to say, that it is certain that in the era of cultural pluralism, personal and media communication depend on the definition of man, on a specific concept of man. Man is the beginning, the way, and the objective of understanding what communication is. "The human person and the human community are the end and measure of the use of the media of social communication; communication should be by persons to persons for the integral development of persons"[8]. It decides whether man as a person and as a community develops, becomes and is: I Communicate, Therefore I Am.

Government will use the death of Vespers Shimuzhila, the UNZA student who was suffocated to death by police teargas, to hide the sale of parts of UNZA land including the frontage that faces Great East Road.
Higher Education Minister Nkandu Luo has told parliament that to stop riots at UNZA
some schools (departments) would be merged while others would be relocated to other areas 'to bring sanity at the higher-learning institution'.
Luo told parliament that the riot that led to police suffocating one student to death, break legs of another and injure 20 other students was not about meal allowances but was sponsored by the opposition.
Luo claimed that the students were already paid allowances the day they were rioting.
Therefore, Luo said, UNZA will be restructured with some schools moved to other parts of Lusaka or central province.
The Watchdog however knows that parts of UNZA land, the frontage and some land where some buildings sit has been sold but government has been afraid to make this public and start the process of giving the land to the new owner.
Luo also told parliament that she expects the results of an inquiry into the rioting at UNZA to be completed within a week.
But the results of the inquiry are already known as Luo and all PF officials are blaming UPND and the students themselves for the riots leading to death and injuries.
Can the police, who killed the student, make finding contrary to what Luo is saying parliament?

Yes, unfortunately the clinical side has become quite under-represented recently. I think we should try to put more emphasis on the connection of the research side to the clinical side. Of course, the clinical aspects will be represented in the HCLS map. Maybe you could give an update on your Problem-Oriented Medical Record ontology and make some suggestions on where it would fit into the landscape of other resources we have recently developed? Since the infrastructure starts to crystallize around the OBO Foundry/Relation Ontology/BFO - based ontologies, some ontologies that are based on different foundations (like your Medical Record ontology) become a bit separated, it seems. cheers, Matthias -- Ist Ihr Browser Vista-kompatibel?

The Insurable Interest in a Life Insurance Policy
UPDATED: February 24, 2015
It's all about you. We want to help you make the right legal decisions.
We strive to help you make confident law decisions. Finding trusted and reliable legal advice should be easy. This doesn't influence our content. Our opinions are our own.
Every state requires that an insurable interest exist at the time of application. Policies issued on lives where there is no insurable interest are regarded as void from the beginning because they are against public policy. They are against public policy because they encourage murder for profit. If there was no insurable interest requirement, some people would be tempted to purchase life insurance policies to collect the death benefit by killing the insured.
A person is always considered to have an unlimited insurable interest in his own life and health. Therefore, the beneficiaries of the policies that an insured purchases on his own life do not need to have an insurable interest. It is presumed that the insured would name as a beneficiary only people who want the insured to live a long and healthy life. A person, therefore, can obtain as much insurance as he wishes on himself subject to other limits an insurance company might have. For example, insurance companies commonly limit the amount of insurance they will place on a person to that appropriate to his income and life style.
Determination of insurable interest
Courts and state laws have established guidelines for those persons and entities presumed to have insurable interest. They fall into three general categories relations by blood or marriage, business relationships, and creditors.
Blood or Marriage: People generally have an insurable interest in the lives of their spouses and dependents. Based on this relationship, the general rule of thumb is:
|Insurable Interest
Husbands and wives
Parents and children
(including adopted children)
Grandparents and grandchildren
Brothers and sisters
Engaged couples (some states)
|No Insurable Interest
Other relatives by marriage
Nieces and nephews
Uncles and aunts
Stepchildren and stepparents
Business Relationship: An insurable interest may be created in an otherwise non-insurable interest relationship by the creation of a financial dependency or a business relationship between the parties. For example, an uncle may be deemed to have an insurable interest in a nephew because the uncles business is run by the nephew and the business, as run by the nephew, is making a lot of money for the uncle.
One who receives economic benefit from the continued life and good health of another has an insurable interest in that persons life. For example, employers can take out key person life insurance on key employees, corporations can take out insurance on the lives of their officers, business partners can take out life insurance on each other.
Creditors: Creditors are allowed to take out life insurance on the lives of their debtors, with the debtors consent, up to the limit on the debt. Mortgage and credit insurance are examples of this type of insurance.
Insurance companies have a duty to exercise reasonable care in determining whether insurable interest exists and whether the consent of the insured has been obtained. If they dont, they may be sued.
For more information on life insurance contracts, read our section on Life Insurance.
