35 Serial Killers And Their Horrifyingly Creepy Last Words
These famous last words will shake you to your core.
1. “I don’t care if I live or die. Go ahead and kill me.”
2. “Hurrah for anarchy! This is the happiest moment of my life.”
3. “Tell me. After my head has been chopped off, will I still be able to hear, at least for a moment, the sound of my own blood gushing from the stump of my neck? That would be a pleasure to end all pleasures.”
4. “Hurry it up, you Hoosier bastard! I could hang a dozen men while you’re screwing around!”
5. “Okay Warden, let’s do it. I love y’all. I can taste it already. I am starting to go.”
6. “I am the master of my fate. I am the captain of my soul.”
7. “Turn up the radio and I’ll go quietly.”
8. “Freedom, freedom at last! It’s been a good one!”
9. “I’d like you to give my love to my family and friends.”
10. “I’d rather be fishing.”
11. “I’d just like to say I’m sailing with the rock, and I’ll be back like Independence Day, with Jesus, June 6th. Like the movie, big mother ship and all. I’ll be back.”
12. “Let’s do it!”
13. “How’s this for a headline? ‘French Fries.’”
14. “An innocent man is going to be murdered tonight. When my innocence is proven, I hope Americans will realize the injustice of the death penalty as all other civilized countries have.”
15. “I took a father, it wasn’t my fault, it was an accident … God knows the truth.” Shannon was smiling and humming as witnesses entered the death chamber. He told the Garza family that his smile was “not from happiness. If my life could bring your father back, then let it be. Don’t take my smile for disrespect.” Shannon said he was going to heaven. He said if he saw his victim, he would ask Garza for forgiveness. “I’ll say when I see him, ‘I’m sorry.'” He urged the relatives of his victim to “go home, have fun, smile. I’m happy. Why should I lie now. I have no anger. I have no fear.”
16. “Well, gentlemen, you are about to see a baked Appel.”
17. “I did not get my Spaghetti-Os, I got spaghetti. I want the press to know this.”

23. “Good people are always so sure they’re right.”
24. “You can be a king or a street sweeper, but everyone dances with the Grim Reaper.”
25. “I am innocent, innocent, innocent. Make no mistake about this. I owe society nothing. I am an innocent man and something very wrong is taking place tonight.”
26. “I love you, mom.”
27. “Capital punishment: them without the capital get the punishment.”
28. “Beam me up.”
29. “See you all on the other side. Warden, murder me … I’m ready to roll. Time to get this party started.”
30. “Kathy, you know I never meant to hurt you. I gave you everything, and that’s what made me so angry. But I never meant to hurt you. I’m sorry.”
31. “There is no way words can express how sorry I am for taking the lives of my babies. Now I can be with my babies, as I always intended.”
32. “My darling Gerti, my wife, I love you endlessly my honeybird. Till we meet again, stay strong. Love, Billy.”
33. “I understand the feelings of the Oestricker family, and I ask their forgiveness…I want to stress to them that I did not go down there that night to harm Jerry. I deeply regret how it turned out.”
34. “I love you all, and I’m sorry for what I done. I’m sorry for killing your mom and what I done to you.”
35. “I can’t really pinpoint where it started, what happened, but really believe that’s just the bottom line, what happened to me was in California. I was in their reformatory schools and penitentiary, but ah, they create monsters in there.”

Hearts of palm, usually found in the canned foods section right next to the artichokes, just happen to make a delicious crab substitute. YouTube
Sure you can also make crab cakes, but we think you'll love this Vegan Hearts of Palm Crab Salad. 4. Artichoke Hearts
The flaky texture of artichokes makes it an excellent substitute for crab in a variety of applications. You can use them just like you would any of the other ingredients in dips, crab cakes, and sushi. YouTube
Here's how some of our favorite vegan recipe creators use artichoke hearts in place of seafood and crab: Baked Artichoke Crab Cakes by OneGreenPlanet
Artichoke Crab Cakes with Tartar Sauce by Vegan Yack Attack

5. Tofu (for California Rolls)
Being as versatile as it is, tofu makes an excellent medium for making mock crab. When cut correctly, its probably the most ideal for making Vegan California Rolls. YouTube

What Does Seaweed Taste Like? The biggest flavor in seaweed is the saltiness. It's an intense taste, briny and definitely in the umami family of flavors. Different types of seaweed have subtle differences in flavor. Nori, the kind of seaweed you'll find in your avocado rolls, is mostly briny while dulse is smoky. For this reason, dulse is often used like a spice in soups, sautes and salads. Read Also: Best Seaweed for Miso Soup - Top 8 Options

If you're concerned that seaweed is slimy, don't be—it's not. Thin sheets of dried nori seaweed are crisp, crackly and slightly chewy, becoming silky and much chewier when moistened.

Seaweed Texture
If you're concerned that seaweed is slimy, don't be—it's not. Thin sheets of dried nori seaweed are crisp, crackly and slightly chewy, becoming silky and much chewier when moistened. Some dried seaweeds sold in sheets are much too thick and tough to eat as they are, so they require soaking for at least thirty minutes, usually in hot water. After soaking, they'll tend to take on a chewy texture the way nori does. Related Article: What Does Sage Taste Like? Is Seaweed Supposed to Taste Fishy?

Why Leadership Development is Important
Based on their skills and involvement, a leader can make a work environment better or worse. Strong leaders are essential for growth and success, and taking strides to facilitate the necessary skills is an important step toward improved culture and productivity. Below are just a few reasons why continued efforts toward leadership development are important. […]
Justin Shimoon, Founder and CEO
Content: Below are just a few reasons why continued efforts toward leadership development are important. Employee Satisfaction
Effective leadership is important for employee satisfaction and has been rated as the second most influential factor in what makes a professional environment appealing. Cultivating positive relationships between employees and their superiors can improve attitudes and productivity. Permitting opportunities for rewards and identifying a style of leadership that suits the group or environment can not only improve the relations between employees but also demonstrate a willingness to learn and grow for the sake of the company. Company Success
The better the leader, the more success the company will have. This success comes from a few factors. With a strong, growth-minded leader, employees will feel motivated to achieve goals and encouraged to perform better. Rather than having managers or other superiors run their own authoritarian regime, ensuring they have the skills necessary for effective leadership throughout their career can improve engagement and the completion of objectives on an individual and company-wide level. Talent Scouting
Rather than seek external applicants, leadership development efforts can allow you to identify existing employees who have the potential to be great leaders if given the opportunity. Fostering the ability to identify strong candidates for leadership positions and other growth opportunities is also an important skill for current leaders.

Encouraging growth from within and emphasizing the importance of strong leadership practices in your employees can improve company loyalty and overall efficiency and functionality. Balance Seeking
Successful leaders in businesses must be able to continually adjust their methods in order to manage both employees and company procedure. Both are priorities as they are necessary to the success of the business, so providing continual leadership development opportunities allows individuals to improve their methods and add to their repertoire of leadership, organizational, and efficiency skills. Strong, effective leadership is integral to both individual and company-wide success. Providing leadership development opportunities can improve morale, loyalty, and profit.

Content: This shows your customers that you care about their experience and their feedback and sets you apart from the big brands that don’t have the easy ability to tap into customer feedback and make real changes quickly and efficiently. 6. Segment & Refine Your Target Audience
While bigger businesses focus on reaching a broad range of demographics, being a small business gives you the opportunity to reach specific markets more effectively. The competition may be making purchases and investments based on national or regional sales trends. You, however, have the advantage of knowing what your local customers want most. Think about different ways you can segment your target audience and the best ways to market to them effectively. This might help you attract even more new customers and grow your audience online. Tip: Take advantage of lookalike audience targeting on Facebook to show your ads to prospective customers with attributes most similar to your current customers – increasing the likelihood that they would want to do business with your small business. 7.

Content: For example, according to the aforementioned article, the course of grief may proceed as follows: Numbness
Pining
Disorganization
Reorganization
The first period, that of numbness, often strikes soon after reality hits the grieving individual. They feel emotionally numb for typically a few hours or days, and then they move into the second phase: pining. They start to pine after their lost loved one, and they grow anxious because that pining can’t be fulfilled. That said, for a little while they continue functioning relatively normally—eating, sleeping, going to work… only indifferently. But then their everyday functioning takes a plummet. Their appetite becomes diminished (and they lose weight as a result), they struggle to concentrate on the activity or job at hand, and they slip into an irritable, depressed state. Eventually, the individual then moves into the third phase of grieving, which is marked by disorganization and despair. They constantly think about the loved one lost, even pondering his or her death—how it all went wrong and how they could have helped prevent it.

What it means when students sit for the Pledge
Content: Sitting and kneeling is your God given right that was fought for by these people, don’t use your rights disgracing those who actually earned that change for you to be so entitled,” argued Nataniah Guzman. However, some students wanted to make it clear that by sitting as a silent protest, they are not disrespecting their country. “I sit because, not just in today’s political climate, but especially today’s political climate, there’s a lot of things that aren’t liberty and justice for all….I feel like as African Americans in America we don’t get treated equally, so why would I stand for something that I believe is a lie? It’s not out of disrespect, it’s not like I hate our country or disrespect our troops, because I have people in my family who are in the military, but I feel like if they serve our country and then they come back and don’t get the equal treatment, who’s really being more disrespectful?” Explained Lauryn Lynch, Senior. Many students expressed similar grievances towards those who sat, arguing that these students were disrespecting their country and those who fought for the United States in the military. Others stated that while they absolutely respected students’ right to sit, they believed that students ought to have a good reason to do so. “I think that if people know what they are protesting then they have every right to sit, but someone who sits and doesn’t know what they’re protesting is just lazy and ignorant in my opinion,” expressed Dylan Loughheed. Despite this, not every student who sits during the Pledge is engaging in an impassioned act of protest. Some students expressed their general indifference towards the Pledge, and how they simply did not feel the need to stand.

Synthroid is a prescription medication that works to replace a hormone naturally produced by the thyroid gland in order to regulate the body’s energy and metabolism. It is the most commonly prescribed medication for patients with hypothyroidism. Sufficient amounts of thyroid hormone are vital for our overall health and Synthroid ensures we receive it. But, how does Synthroid affect our weight and can it help us slim down? Find the answers below. Hypothyroidism and weight gain
There is a reversible relationship between higher TSH and T3 levels in obesity and lower levels of these hormones in anorexia. According to scientists from Germany, leptin (a hormone made by adipose cells to regulate energy balance) could be the link between TSH and a person’s weight status [1]. Weight gain or increased difficulty of losing weight is characteristic for hypothyroid patients.

Conclusion
References
Content: In instances when TSH activity is too high, it usually means a patient deals with hypothyroidism. The American Thyroid Association explains weight gain is more serious in patients with more severe hypothyroidism, compared to their counterparts. Even though the relationship between hypothyroidism and weight gain is evident, the underlying mechanisms aren’t quite clear. In a vast majority of patients, most of the extra weight is due to accumulation of water and salt. Massive weight gain is not usually associated with hypothyroidism itself and only 5-10 pounds of body weight can be attributed to effects of the thyroid gland. Of course, it all depends on the severity of hypothyroidism [5], the American Thyroid Association adds. Synthroid and weight loss
Synthroid, levothyroxine, is a synthetic version of hormone thyroxine (T4) produced by the thyroid gland. In hypothyroid patients, the thyroid gland produces an insufficient amount of this hormone (and T3) or doesn’t produce anything at all ( see this article for more information on thyroid basics and common questions.) The medication works to replace this naturally-produced hormone and ensure the body has sufficient levels of T4 to regulate metabolism, energy, and to prevent goiter. The T4 requirements of an individual can change due to weight loss.

The T4 requirements of an individual can change due to weight loss. One study studied the T4 requirements in obese participants with acquired hypothyroidism before and after they underwent bariatric surgery to induce weight loss. For this purpose, they enrolled 93 hypothyroid patients and discovered that weight loss led to a significant reduction of the total dose of T4. Their findings demonstrated that reduction of the T4 dose was proportional to decrease in lean body mass [6]. Basically, the bigger the weight loss, the lower the dose is necessary. The study whose findings were mentioned below suggests that weight loss changes requirements for T4 and dropping a few pounds can also lead to the decreased dosage of the medication.

Now, we have to wonder about the impact of Synthroid or levothyroxine on weight loss itself. Can it help overweight hypothyroid patients slim down? We are led to believe that treatment of hypothyroidism and getting hormones in check would help us control our weight and lose a few pounds. The reality is different in many cases, one study found. A group of researchers at the Boston University School of Medicine carried out a study which showed that modest weight loss after levothyroxine treatment occurs only in half of hypothyroid patients.

This is, indeed, surprising if we bear in mind that overweight/obesity are common in hypothyroidism. One would expect more studies to be conducted on this subject. Modest weight loss or lack of it in hypothyroid patients who receive treatment with levothyroxine isn’t only due to the drug itself. The outcome depends on the severity of hypothyroidism, treatment adequacy, and a subsequent calorie intake of an individual [7].

The Synthroid dose can depend from one patient to another and it is important to establish the right dosage. At the same time, your lifestyle matters too and whether you eat a well-balanced diet or not. Remember, making healthier lifestyle choices isn’t only about weight management in hypothyroidism, but prevention of complications such as high cholesterol and potential cardiovascular events. It is also important to mention that weight gain or weight loss is among a number of potential side effects of Synthroid use [8]. Of course, different people have different experiences and just because someone else may have gained weight due to the medication it doesn’t mean you will too.

Conclusion

Content: So, don’t let this info discourage you from trying to manage your weight if dealing with hypothyroidism and taking Synthroid. How can Synthroid aid weight loss? Synthroid can still be a useful ally against extra pounds for hypothyroid individuals. Most importantly, it has a beneficial impact on parameters associated with metabolic syndrome and atherosclerosis in patients who are diagnosed with hypothyroidism. Both health problems are strongly linked to excess body weight. One study revealed that T4 replacement therapy with levothyroxine has favorable effects on BMI, blood pressure, and cholesterol levels. The improvement in these parameters could contribute to reduced cardiovascular risk in this patient population [9]. It is not uncommon for hypothyroid patients to change their lifestyle and still experience weight gain due to the condition they have. Synthroid can help, but as established above, it comes down to taking the right dosage. Weight loss that occurs due to this medication is most prominent in the early stages of treatment because your body still hasn’t adapted to the increase in metabolic rate.

Weight loss that occurs due to this medication is most prominent in the early stages of treatment because your body still hasn’t adapted to the increase in metabolic rate. As the treatment with Synthroid continues, the body adjusts to the faster metabolism and weight loss slows down. We can compare this to weight loss that occurs when we just start with a training program. At the beginning, we notice major improvements in our appearance. Later, weight loss slows down as we get used to the same exercise routine. Synthroid can contribute to weight loss through different factors, including:

Content: The usual dose of Liothyronine is normally lower as compared to the prescribed dose of Levothyroxine since Liothyronine is a higher concentrated synthetic medication. Apart from being used to treat hypothyroidism, Liothyronine is also used to treat thyroid cancer and myxedema coma. Its use for obesity is not recommended. There is a risk of minor side-effects that occur when the drug has been used in excessive dosages. Liothyronine can be taken orally in the form of a tablet, or as an injection. A double-blind study published in the Journal of Clinical Endocrinology and Metabolism investigated and then compared the effects of Levothyroxine and Liothyronine. The results showed that both thyroid medications helped increase thyroid hormone levels. It is worth mentioning that the use of Liothyronine helped achieve significant weight loss results. [ v]
Levothyroxine
Levothyroxine is the drug of choice when it comes to treating hypothyroidism. [ vi] This thyroid drug is identical to the T4 hormone, which is later converted in T3, once introduced in the body.

Apart from being used to treat low thyroid hormone levels, it is also used as a part of the prevention and treatment process for goiter, as well as in the treatment of thyroid cancer. Dangerous side-effects can occur from the misuse of Levothyroxine, as this medication is not meant to be used to treat obesity and weight problems. The prescribed daily dose is to be respected at all times. There are two methods of use – oral use, when a Levothyroxine tablet or capsule is taken by the mouth, preferably on an empty stomach, and an injection given as an infusion in the vein. Levothyroxine can cause some mild to more serious side-effects.

Findings show that around 5-10% of the patients treated with Levothyroxine have experienced persistent symptoms, despite the daily treatment with Levothyroxine. One 2018 study compared the effects of Levothyroxine monotherapy and Levothyroxine used in combination with levotriiodothyronine. [ vii] Unfortunately, the results showed no significant improvement in the symptoms in those treated with a combination of Levothyroxine and levotriiodothyronine. In such cases, other thyroid medications are usually prescribed.

The effects of Water Temperature
Fish are cold blooded, which means their metabolism is strongly influenced by the temperature of their surrounding environment. Fish want to stay comfortable. Consequently, even a small change or break will cause fish to move from one location to another. In general, this behavior varies for each species and place, so we can not specify an ideal water temperature, however as a general rule we will try to avoid the temperatures abnormally cold in summer and too warm in winter. Remember, look for the comfort zones and you will find the fish. Current Temperature air / water
MAY 29, 2021, 11:32 pm
Water temperature plays an important role in the behavior of fish. When the water is cold, fish are lethargic and inactive, and the same happens if the water is too hot. At this moment the current water temperature in Queensboro Bridge is -. The average water temperature in Queensboro Bridge today is - .

Content: [The Gini index is] based on a score between zero and one. A Gini index of one means a country’s entire income goes to one person; a score of zero means the spoils are equally divided. Sub-Saharan Africa saw its Gini index rise by 9% between 1993 and 2008. China’s score soared by 34% over twenty years. Only in a few places has it fallen. This means that inequality in developing countries has generally risen over the past two to three decades. While it has been challenging for economists to make a direct correlation between globalization and poverty reduction or increases/decreases in inequality, the Economist article provides one theory for how globalization creates high inequality: Outsourcing—when rich countries shift parts of the production process to poor countries. Contrary to popular belief, multinationals in poor countries often employ skilled workers and pay high wages.

One study showed that workers in foreign-owned and subcontracting clothing and footwear factories in Vietnam rank in the top 20% of the country’s population by household expenditure. A report from the OECD found that average wages paid by foreign multinationals are 40% higher than wages paid by local firms… By contrast, unskilled workers, or poor ones in rural areas, tend not to have such opportunities… For these reasons globalization can boost the wages of skilled workers, while crimping those of the unskilled. The result is that inequality rises. From this point of view, we can see how globalization may be a contributor to inequality. However, there are two things that we should keep in mind: (

However, there are two things that we should keep in mind: ( 1) the impact tends to be relatively small, and (2) income inequality is not necessarily a negative thing. Studying the impact of technology, trade, and financial globalization on income inequality, the IMF found that: The contribution of increased globalization to inequality has in general been relatively minor. This reflects two offsetting effects of globalization: while increased trade tends to reduce income inequality, foreign direct investment tends to exacerbate it.

Bandow tells us that according to the World Bank, changes in inequality are usually small and globalization contributes to positive changes in the developing world: Most of the globalizing developing countries have seen only small changes in household inequality, and inequality has declined in such countries as the Philippines and Malaysia. Moreover, greater economic openness to the world has tended to reduce gender inequality. Anne Bradley argues that income inequality can actually be a sign of a robust economy. It’s not, of course, when inequality forms as a result of exploitation, but when it comes from trade that means greater specialization from markets and more trading partners.

In an article on poverty and inequality, Bradley states,
Income inequality deals with how income is held over a society. Unless everyone is exactly equal, there will always be a top and a bottom. What matters is how the folks at the bottom fare and whether they have opportunities to use their God-given creativity and skills to give them income mobility. Globalization can allow just that: an expansion of opportunities for those at the bottom which provides greater economic and social mobility.

Content: What about helping the little guy? Let’s think about these questions from an economic perspective. Isn’t Inequality a Sign of Injustice? Income is a return for labor that is well-invested, because well-invested labor creates value for others. This doesn’t occur in a vacuum; we can only earn income when we give others what they want at high quality and reasonable prices. Income is an important incentive for innovation and making goods and services cheaper. Only when the poor in the third world can earn higher wages, retain their income, and enter the global marketplace will they be on the road out of poverty. In the United States, we argue against income inequality primarily based on the false idea that if someone earns a high income, they take away opportunities for the poor and middle classes to earn more, too. The truth is, when economies are based on market trade they are not zero-sum games.

Content: Emergency Medical Treatment & Labor Act (EMTALA) Overview
In 1986, Congress enacted the Emergency Medical Treatment & Labor Act (EMTALA) to ensure public access to emergency services regardless of ability to pay. Section 1867 of the Social Security Act imposes specific obligations on Medicare-participating hospitals that offer emergency services to provide a medical screening examination (MSE) when a request is made for examination or treatment for an emergency medical condition (EMC), including active labor, regardless of an individual’s ability to pay. Hospitals are then required to provide stabilizing treatment for patients with EMCs. If a hospital is unable to stabilize a patient within its capability, or if the patient requests, an appropriate transfer should be implemented. The Basic Concept
Hospitals that participate in the Medicare program must provide a medical screening exam to determine if the patient is in an emergency medical condition (EMC) and if so must be provided stabilizing treatment or transfer: Provided to any person who comes to the ED requesting emergency services
Passed to prohibit hospitals from denying care to women in labor
How it All Started: The First Case
January 28, 1985, Eugene Barnes, a 32-year-old male presented to Brookside Hospital Emergency Department in California • Mr. Barnes had a penetrating stab wound to the scalp and the on-call Neurosurgeon refused to come to the hospital • ED physician called 3 other hospitals who also refused to take Mr. Barnes • SF General accepted the transfer 4 hours after initial presentation • Mr. Barnes died. On-Call Requirements
Hospital must maintain a list of physicians who are on-call
The hospital has to keep the list of physicians who are on-call to provide necessary treatment to stabilize a patient with an Emergency Medical Condition
This on-call requirement applies to hospitals without an ED if they have specialized capabilities (Ortho Hospital)
Staff must be aware of who is on-call including specialists and sub-specialists
The on-call list must be composed of physicians who are members of the medical staff and who have hospital privileges
ED physician can call the on-call physician for consultation and the on-call physician does not have to show up if not requested
The hospital has direct liability (not vicarious liability) if harm comes to a patient due to a failure of the on-call system to work
Physicians who are on call are not representing their office practice when they are on call, they are representing the hospital
The on-call physician must immediately be required to notify the ED or hospital promptly if he or she becomes unable to respond when on call
CMS does not have a specific requirement regarding how frequent physicians have to be on call
CMS uses the “relevant factor test”
This would include a number of physicians on the medical staff, other demands of physicians, number of times requiring stabilizing services of the on-call physician, vacations, and conferences –
Hospital does a significant number of cardiac catheterization and holds itself out as a center of excellence so CMS would expect 24-hour coverage
CMS Recommends to Hospitals
Have an On-Call policy
Clearly delineate the responsibilities of the on-call physician to respond, exam, and treat
Address the steps to follow if an on-call physician can not respond due to circumstances beyond their control
Clarify that if the on-call physician is requested to come to the ED and refuses, it is a violation against both the physician and the hospital
Clarify that it is a violation if the physician refused to come within a reasonable time
Community Shared Call
If the hospital participated in the community call must include the names of the physicians pursuant to this plan
Hospitals need to provide sufficient on-call physicians to meet the needs of the community
The plan for community call must clearly articulate which on-call services will be provided and when
Sending the hospital must still conduct a medical screening examination and stabilize within its capability and capacity if the patient has an emergency medical condition
Hospitals participating in the community call plan must still accept appropriate transfers from hospitals not participating in the plan
All Medicare-participating hospitals must fulfill their EMTALA obligation whether participating in a community call plan or not
EMTALA does not apply to pre-hospital setting or paramedics in the field but good to educate them on this
Updates to the community call plan must be communicated to EMS providers so they include the information in their protocols
Simultaneous Call
Hospitals can permit physicians if they want to be on call at two or more facilities
Hospitals have to be aware and agree to this
Hospitals must have a policy and procedure on this
Staff will follow the written policy and procedure if on-call is not available when called to another hospital
Back up plan might be to transfer the patient to the next appropriate hospital
Scheduled Elective Surgery
Hospital can decide if they will allow on-call physician to do elective surgery or elective procedures
Hospitals need to have policy and procedure on this
Hospital must have back up plan in case on-call physician is not available
Medical Staff Exemptions
No requirement that all the physicians on the MS must take call
For example, a hospital may exempt a senior physician (over 60) or physicians who have been on the staff for over 20 years
However, can not permit physicians to selectively take call
Hospital needs to ensure adequate call schedule
EMTALA FAQs
Who decides if the on-call specialist has to come in to see a patient? The Emergency Room physician who has eyes on the patient EMTALA places the decision power with the physician with eyes on the patient. The response is not negotiable or debatable.

How Nursing Informatics Improves Patient Care
The healthcare information revolution is upon us. Clinicians have more access than ever to electronic health records, diagnostics, and treatment plans. Clinical communication and collaboration platforms are making it easier to manage healthcare workflows, improve coordination, and enhance patient outcomes. Systems integration and data access mean that information and analysis are more vital than ever. The secret to using this data to provide better care comes down to nursing informatics — integrating nursing science with other areas to identify, define, manage, and communicate data, information, knowledge, and wisdom to provide better care. As the Healthcare Information and Management Systems Society says, “The informatics nurse is part of the delivery of care, the building of knowledge, skills, and experience in the use of information technology. They often lead clinical informatics committee meetings that have a major influence for nurses in assisting them to coordinate all the multifaceted technology activities in regards to patient care, documentation, and safety.” Let’s dig into exactly how nursing informatics achieves that. Aligning Nursing Best Practice with Clinical Workflows and Care
Nursing informatics is focussed on the best ways to achieve good patient outcomes — it is about applying the overall process and best practice to maximize patient care wherever possible. As a result, nurse informaticists are often involved in process design, clinical workflow reviews, and new diagnostics and treatment plans.

As a result, nurse informaticists are often involved in process design, clinical workflow reviews, and new diagnostics and treatment plans. They take into account the various options for providing care and use objective facts and analysis to determine the actions that will lead to the most patient-centered, value-based care. Improving Clinical Policies, Protocols, Processes, and Procedures
Data is the lifeblood of nursing informatics. That data and information can be used to measure the success of the various protocols, processes, and procedures used in a healthcare organization. A nurse informaticist will measure and analyze how specific parts of the organization are performing, with a focus on the resulting patient outcomes. They can then make changes to specific parts of the process to streamline activities, avoid bottlenecks, and improve care.

User reviews about Tik Tok
Content: Instagram is a well-known application for photo sharing that has advanced into the realm of video development with its new feature called ‘Reels.’ Unfortunately, it’s only entered the market with this tool recently, which means it still has a long way to go before it can be up to par with TikTok. The video-creation function also gets lost amid Instagram’s other content. Of course, any application that lets you create and share videos will have to stand the test of time against Youtube. With the ability to develop hours of content in one video and share it live, TikTok falls behind with the wide variety of Youtube features available. When it comes to lip-syncing and related effects, TikTok takes the trophy. Why TikTok is so addictive
The video-creating and social-sharing application’s popularity boils down to the myriad of old and new features. First of all, many members praise its algorithm that detects what you enjoy watching and then adjusts future content on your feed. The long list of trending views based on your preference makes videos easy to access, increasing the addiction to the app. The short length of the videos is appealing since you can watch several of them within a few minutes.

It’s also entertaining for creators that making video memes for daily fresh content. Video creation and sharing from your PC
TikTok has reached worldwide acclaim with its short video, letting you share across other applications like Whatsapp, Facebook, and Instagram. While there have been some security and safety concerns over the years, it hasn’t stopped teenagers and adults from taking full advantage of lip-syncing to the hottest hits. ByteDance takes these complaint terms to heart while also addressing Netzdg policies.

Content: According to the Guttmacher Institute, in 2011 abortion declined by 13 percent from 2008, mostly because of better access to birth control and to longer-acting birth control methods like the IUD. That is very good news. But often what people mean is that women are too casual about sex and contraception. When Naomi Wolf writes about her friends’ it-was-such- good-Chardonnay abortions, she is saying women get pregnant by accident because they are hedonistic and shallow. It is difficult to come down hard on abortion as immoral, to insist that the ideal number of abortions is zero, as Will Saletan maintains, without blaming the individual woman who got herself into a fix and now wants to do a bad thing to get out of it. 5. Abortion is racist. In February 2011, a three-story-high billboard popped up in New York City. Featuring an adorable little black girl in a sweet pink dress, it pro- claimed, “The Most Dangerous Place for an African American Is in the Womb.” The previous year, billboards in Atlanta showed a little black boy with the slogan “Black Children Are an Endangered Species.”

The metaphor ignores the subjectivity of black women; once again, a woman is a vessel, a place—in this case a hostile place. Imagery of abortion as slavery or genocide allows abortion opponents to posture as anti-racists without having to learn anything about the lives of black women or lift a finger to rectify the enormous and ongoing legacy of slavery and segregation. Just shame black women into giving birth to more children than they feel they can safely bear or care for, and all will be well. 6. Abortion opponents would never punish women.

By Scott Bonn

Scott Bonn is a criminology professor at Drew University and author of Why We Love Serial Killers. G iven the tremendous buzz and interest in reality programs such as Netflix’s Making a Murderer, about the exoneration and then murder conviction of Steven Avery, HBO’s The Jinx, about eccentric millionaire and possible serial killer Robert Durst, and Serial Season 1, about the case of convicted murderer Adnan Syed, it is clear that true crime shows are tantalizing to millions of people. This conclusion is supported by the passionate and loyal following demonstrated by Investigation Discovery network, which is entirely devoted to the true-crime genre of programming. If you spend any amount of time watching true crime TV, you will quickly notice that the shows almost always involve one particular type of crime: murder. Often, too, the focus is on exotic, bizarre and especially grisly or disturbing incidents of murder. In the extreme, the tales of murder depicted in true crime TV shows involve the gruesome and notorious exploits of serial killers such as the late Jeffrey Dahmer, Ted Bundy, John Wayne Gacy (The Killer Clown), Richard Ramirez (The Night Stalker) or David Berkowitz (Son of Sam). The morbid stories of these prolific killers have become popular culture legends.

Content: Often, too, the focus is on exotic, bizarre and especially grisly or disturbing incidents of murder. In the extreme, the tales of murder depicted in true crime TV shows involve the gruesome and notorious exploits of serial killers such as the late Jeffrey Dahmer, Ted Bundy, John Wayne Gacy (The Killer Clown), Richard Ramirez (The Night Stalker) or David Berkowitz (Son of Sam). The morbid stories of these prolific killers have become popular culture legends. Can we conclude that people are fascinated with death, and that this alone explains why true-crime shows are so popular with the public? I think not. As a criminologist and college professor who also is a former network television executive, I spent several years conducting my own research on the allure of true crime. More specifically, I focused on what many people would consider to be the most heinous of all true crimes: serial murder. Petition To Pardon Avery And Dassey Now Requires Response From White House

My research has determined that the public’s fascination with serial killers on television is multifaceted and complex. Serial killers tantalize people much like traffic accidents, train wrecks or natural disasters. The public’s fascination with them can be seen as a specific manifestation of its more general fixation on violence and calamity. In other words, the actions of a serial killer may be horrible to behold but much of the public simply cannot look away due to the spectacle. People also receive a jolt of adrenaline as a reward for witnessing terrible deeds. Adrenaline is a hormone that produces a powerful, stimulating and even addictive effect on the human brain. If you doubt the addictive power of adrenaline, think of the thrill-seeking child who will ride a roller coaster over and over until he or she becomes physically ill.

If you doubt the addictive power of adrenaline, think of the thrill-seeking child who will ride a roller coaster over and over until he or she becomes physically ill. The euphoric effect of true crime on human emotions is similar to that of roller coasters or natural disasters. The public is drawn to true crime because it triggers the most basic and powerful emotion in all of us—fear. As a source of popular culture entertainment, it allow us to experience fear and horror in a controlled environment where the threat is exciting but not real. For example, the stories of real-life killers are often for adults what monster movies are for children. Moreover, by following an investigation on TV, people can play armchair detective and see if they can figure out “whodunit” before law enforcement authorities catch the actual perpetrator.

After much consideration, I believe that for many people, including me, true crime shows generally offer guilty pleasure to thrill-seeking adults. Why is there guilt? It feels wrong or inappropriate for us to delight in the horrors inflicted on real people in true crime shows. Yet many of us relish watching these shows anyway. But although we may feel a bit guilty about indulging in them, we simply cannot stop.

Twitter Has Lost a Staggering Amount of Money
The Leadership Brief. Conversations with the most influential leaders in business and tech.
Content: The company lost $520 million in 2015 alone. Like many companies, though, Twitter prefers to talk about adjusted earnings, which exclude stock-based compensation and some other expenses. These are the figures Wall Street investors tend to focus on. By that measure, Twitter had a net income of $277 million in 2015. But anxiety over Twitter today has less to do with whether or not the company can earn money now and more to do with its prospects in the future. Wall Street appears skeptical that Twitter can effectively grow its user base, serve those users more ads and substantially increase its revenue. The company’s stock sunk below $20 per share at the start of the year, off from a high around $70, and has yet to recover. Twitter is well aware of its own troubles. Elsewhere in the 10-K the company vows to emphasize live-streaming video, crack down on abusive accounts and “demonstrate our value proposition to a larger audience” through product improvements this year.

The Democratic Party Is More Extreme on Abortion Than Ever
The Democratic Party Is More Extreme on Abortion Than Ever
Ideas
By Marjorie Dannenfelser
July 26, 2016 4:47 PM EDT
Marjorie Dannenfelser is the president of the Susan B. Anthony List, a pro-life political action committee. O n Monday night the Democratic Party ratified a platform custom made to reflect Hillary Clinton’s policy agenda. And just when you thought the Party couldn’t get more extreme on abortion, think again. The last time the Democratic Party nominated a Clinton for the presidency was 1996. Bill Clinton was no friend to unborn children, twice vetoing the Partial Birth Abortion Ban Act. But Bill Clinton and the Party’s platform were at least willing to pay lip service to pro-life Americans, especially those within the Democratic Party. It was Bill Clinton who said abortion should be “safe, legal, and rare,” with the last word indicating abortion isn’t something to be celebrated. And in 1996, the DNC adopted a platform that characterized abortion as a “difficult issue” and because of that, “we respect the individual conscience of each American.” It called for making abortion “less necessary” and “more rare.” Comparing it to the previous platform, this was new language geared at keeping pro-life Democrats in the Party, likely upset with Clinton’s first veto of the Partial Birth Abortion Ban just months before the 1996 convention.

Eighty-one Congressional Democrats voted for the ban. It also came in the wake of the 1992 Convention, in which Gov. Bob Casey Sr. was denied the opportunity to speak because of his pro-life views. Fast forward to the 2016 Democratic platform. Long gone is the goal of making abortion “rare,” along with the idea of “respect [ing] the individual conscience of each American” on the issue.

Long gone is the goal of making abortion “rare,” along with the idea of “respect [ing] the individual conscience of each American” on the issue. Instead, the 2016 platform calls for quite the opposite: t he repeal of the Hyde Amendment. Repealing this longstanding amendment to a bill would mean abortions for Medicaid recipients, paid for with taxpayer funds. Forcing Americans to pay for the abortions of others hardly respects conscience rights; it’s a direct assault on them.

Content: I have a traditional Catholic personal position, but I am very strongly supportive that women should make those decisions and government shouldn’t intrude.” Voters should not be fooled by his equivocation: Sen. Kaine’s “traditional Catholic personal position” has never affected the way he’s voted in the Senate, as evidenced by his 100% pro-abortion rights record. His most egregious votes include voting against a ban on later-term abortions, and voting to send taxpayer funding to America’s largest abortion provider, Planned Parenthood. Further, if Sen. Kaine truly had a “traditional Catholic personal position,” it would preclude him from having a pro-abortion rights public policy position. The Catechism of the Catholic Church clearly states that the rights of the unborn person “must be recognized and respected by civil society and the political authority.” The Church’s teaching applies to those in the public square. Despite all this, the Democratic Party and their allies will undoubtedly try to use Kaine as a way to keep the 32% of Democrats who consider themselves pro-life to stay in the tent. The GOP shouldn’t let them get away with it. Instead, it’s time to expose the Democratic Party’s extreme stance on abortion, especially their support of later term abortions and their call for taxpayer-funded abortions by repealing Hyde.

Doing so would galvanize the GOP’s base while drawing in some of those pro-life Democrats who feel abandoned by their Party. It’s exactly what SBA List is doing door-to-door in key battleground states: Targeting pro-life Democrats, including Hispanics, and informing them of the extreme pro-abortion rights votes and stances taken by Hillary Clinton and down-ballot Democratic candidates.

Content: They’re chosen for their party loyalty by party conventions or party leaders. In presidential elections between 1992 and 2012, over 99 percent of electors kept their pledges to a candidate, and there were only two “ faithless electors .” One Gore elector from Washington, D.C. cast a blank ballot in 2000 to protest a lack of congressional representation for District of Columbia residents. And one Kerry elector in Minnesota in 2004 voted for vice presidential candidate John Edwards for both president and vice president – an apparent mistake, since none of Minnesota’s electors admitted to the action afterward. There have been scattered faithless electors in past elections, but they’ve never influenced the outcome of a presidential election. Since winner-take-all laws began in the 1820s, electors have rarely acted independently or against the wishes of the party that chose them. A majority of states even have laws requiring the partisan electors to keep their pledges when voting. Yes, some of this year’s Republican electors may not have been big supporters of Donald Trump’s candidacy. But despite the best efforts of some Clinton voters to get them to switch sides, there’s no evidence that some electors may consider voting for someone like Paul Ryan to prevent a Trump majority and throw the election into the U.S. House of Representatives.

Content: Florida, Pennsylvania, North Carolina and Ohio. During that time, 87 percent of campaign visits by the four candidates were in 12 battleground states, and none of the four candidates ever went to 27 states, which includes almost all of rural America. Even in the swing states where they do campaign, the candidates focus on urban areas where most voters live. In Pennsylvania, for example, 72 percent of Pennsylvania campaign visits by Clinton and Trump in the final two months of their campaigns were to the Philadelphia and Pittsburgh areas. In Michigan, all eight campaign visits by Clinton and Trump in the final two months of their campaigns were to the Detroit and Grand Rapids areas, with neither candidate visiting the rural parts of the state. The Electoral College does not create a national campaign inclusive of rural areas. In fact, it does just the opposite. Myth #3: It creates a mandate to lead
Some have advocated continuation of the Electoral College because its winner-take-all nature at the state level causes the media and the public to see many close elections as landslides, thereby giving a stronger mandate to govern for the winning candidate. In 1980, Ronald Reagan won 51 percent of the national popular vote but 91 percent of the electoral vote, giving the impression of a landslide victory and allowing him to convince Congress to approve parts of his agenda.

In 1992 and 1996, Bill Clinton twice won comfortable majorities in the Electoral College while winning less than half of the national popular vote. ( In both years, third party candidate Ross Perot had run.) In 2016, Trump won by a large margin in the Electoral College, while winning fewer popular votes than Clinton nationwide. Nonetheless, former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani announced that Trump’s Electoral College victory gives him a mandate to govern. Perhaps for incoming presidents, this artificial perception of landslide support is a good thing.

Content: The antiwar movement became more grounded in political analysis than in the starry-eyed assurance of earlier protesters, Anthony DeCurtis tells LIFE. “ It was about capitalism and about something that needed to be overthrown,” he says, “and not by consciousness.” Protests spread, and schools served as major centers of agitation. This was encouraged by the Johnson administration’s decision to abolish draft deferments for most graduate students, a move that affected some 650,000 men. Muhammad Ali, who had been banned from boxing because he refused the draft, toured campuses, giving hundreds of speeches. At Harvard Law School, professor Alan Dershowitz taught a class on legal ways to resist the draft. Students there, as well as at Radcliffe and Boston University, took part in a four-day hunger strike against the war. And at Columbia, 3,500 students and 1,000 faculty members boycotted classes in protest. SDS members led by undergraduate Mark Rudd voiced their opposition to the school’s involvement with the Institute for Defense Analysis and weapons research for the military, while also fighting the school over the construction of a new gym that they complained offered discriminatory access to Harlem neighborhood residents. They also took over school buildings and occupied the president’s office.

Some of those opposed to the war raided draft offices. Father Daniel Berrigan and eight other members of the Catholic Church entered the Selective Service office in Catonsville, Maryland, and seized hundreds of draft files. Outside, they doused the cards with their own homemade napalm. A group that became know as the Milwaukee 14 broke into that city’s Selective Service office and took 4,000 class 1-A draft cards, dragging them out in sacks and burning them in a park across the street.

Title: How and Why Planes Have to Fly So High | Time

Here's How High Planes Actually Fly, According to Experts
How high do planes actually fly?
Why don’t small private planes or helicopters fly at the same height?
So how does the height compare to obstacles in the sky? Do birds ever get in the way?

Content: In most cases, these planes use a piston-powered engine, which operates similarly to the engine in your car and with power that only allows for shorter flights, according to the National Business Aviation Association. This type of engine prevents these smaller planes from reaching the same altitudes as commercial aircraft. “The plane that the average guy can rent and fly, those tend to stay usually below 15,000 feet and that’s just a limit on what the plane can do,” Beckman says. Pilots also refrain from flying these types of planes at greater heights because of potential health risks like hypoxia, which is when tissues do not receive enough oxygen, according to the National Institutes of Health. That lack of oxygen can occur at higher altitudes due to a decrease in oxygen pressure, according to the FAA. As the plane ascends, the level of oxygen decreases, which can cause rapid decompression for an aircraft that is not pressurized in the same way as a commercial airplane. What about helicopters? Choppers are mainly designed to fly short distances and typically fly much lower than airplanes, normally at under 10,000 feet. They are also unable to ascend to the same height an airplane can because instead of wings, helicopters fly by rotating blades. So how does the height compare to obstacles in the sky?

Do birds ever get in the way? Birds are most likely to obstruct planes at lower altitudes, and can present problems during takeoff and landing. The extreme case of that would be the U.S. Airways aircraft that landed on the Hudson, but that’s not typical, Jorgenson says. But when planes are at cruising altitude, experts say birds are no longer a threat. So once the seatbelt signs goes off, you can relax and enjoy the flight.

Content: In 1991 Boris Yeltsin, the first president of the new Russian state, wrote to NATO, reiterating Gorbachev’s proposal. He echoed calls made by former Warsaw Pact countries like Hungary to join the Western alliance, and called NATO membership a “long-term political aim” of Russia. After the collapse of the Soviet Union though, NATO began to redefine its purpose. Vesko Garcevic, a former Montenegro ambassador to NATO, says the new mission became to ensure the democratization of newly post-communist republics, which the alliance considered crucial to guaranteeing a stable Europe. After joining NATO, most of the countries then became E.U. members. “ It was no longer not just about security. It was also political. That’s why the alliance has survived for so many years,” he says. In 1994, Russia officially signed up to the NATO Partnership for Peace, a program aimed at building trust between NATO and other European and former Soviet countries. President Bill Clinton described it in January 1994 as a “track that will lead to NATO membership.”

The goal, as determined by the U.S. intelligence community and backed up by evidence gathered by Special Counsel Robert Mueller: To damage the Clinton campaign, boost Trump’s chances and sow distrust in American democracy overall. The details of these efforts have come out in drips and drabs since the 2016 election ended, with information revealed by a memo from intelligence agencies, court documents filed by Mueller, testimony from Trump associates in court and before Congress and investigative news reports. Mueller has completed a final report to Attorney General William Barr detailing his findings, but so far only a brief summary to Congress by Barr has been released. But while lawmakers and the public wait to see the report, the big picture of Russian influence efforts has been available for a while.

A s Democratic presidential hopefuls unroll their platforms for the 2020 presidential election, some of the hot-button issues they’re discussing, such as immigration and healthcare, will sound familiar from past presidential races. But one idea that has popped up in the campaigns of Sen. Elizabeth Warren, Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand, Mayor Pete Buttigieg, Beto O’Rourke and others may be unexpected: changing or abolishing the Electoral College. In some ways, it’s not actually surprising that more attention is being paid to the Electoral College. Two of the last three U.S. Presidents — Donald Trump and George W. Bush — were elected to their position without winning the popular vote. That’s possible because when Americans cast their ballots in a presidential election every four years, they’re not voting directly for President but rather for “electors” who promise to vote for a particular candidate. The electors from all the states come together to form the Electoral College and select the President. Because of the way the number of electors per state is determined, an individual vote from a sparsely populated state is worth more in the final count than a vote from a densely populated state, so it’s possible to win the Electoral College vote while losing the popular vote. Some 2020 candidates argue that abolishing the Electoral College would bring the country closer to the ideal of “one person, one vote.” Proponents also argue that the process would increase voter participation, especially in states that are deeply red or blue, whereas some voters today are left feeling that their vote cannot affect the result.

Content: One oft-cited definition comes from Mark Rozell, author of two books on executive privilege and the Founding Dean of the Schar School of Policy and Government at George Mason University. He defined executive privilege in a 1998 Minnesota law review article as “the right of the president and high-level executive branch officers to withhold information from Congress, the courts and ultimately the public” when it comes to “ (1) certain national security needs and (2) protecting the privacy of White House deliberations when it is in the public interest to do so.” The term “executive privilege” is not in the U.S. Constitution, but it’s considered an implied power based on the separation of powers laid out in Article II, which is meant to make sure one branch of government doesn’t become all-powerful; executive privilege is one way the legislative branch’s power over the executive is limited. For example, when Congress investigated George W. Bush’s firing of eight U.S. Attorneys in 2006, the White House Counsel at the time, Fred Fielding, alluded to executive privilege in a letter referencing the “the constitutional prerogatives of the presidency.” But prominent constitutional law expert Raoul Berger famously called it a “constitutional myth” in his 1974 book, literally entitled Executive Privilege: A Constitutional Myth. Why do presidents need executive privilege? The basic idea behind executive privilege is that an entity like the U.S. government requires a lot of transparency, but also can’t function if there’s no possible way to speak about things confidentially. “All reasonably complicated organizations need some space in which people can discuss what they’re going to do, with some degree of confidentiality.

Content: Kids see less of a future, they see more of their friends dying,” Miron says. “ This might give us just one more reason to crack down on” substance misuse. His second theory is that social media may be contributing to rising suicide rates, particularly for young people. “ We know that now it’s used in younger ages and more intensively, and we also see some new apps that allow more anonymity, which in turn allows more bullying and more kids talking about suicide without their parents knowing,” he says. Heavy social media use may also lead to fewer meaningful in-person interactions—which can protect against mental health issues and suicidal behavior—and encourage unhealthy comparison with others. One other possibility, says Harkavy-Friedman, is that suicide may be better reported and identified today than in years past, as people pay closer attention to mental health issues. Though suicide is always complicated at both the individual and national levels, help is available. Experts encourage those struggling with suicidal thoughts to confide in a trusted friend or family member, speak with a health care provider, or seek care at an emergency room in cases of immediate danger. If you or someone you know may be contemplating suicide, call the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline at 1-800-273-8255 or text HOME to 741741 to reach the Crisis Text Line. In emergencies, call 911, or seek care from a local hospital or mental health provider.

Content: Jason Vaughn for TIME
A perfect storm of factors has led to the recent crisis in the farm industry. After boom years in the beginning of the 21st century, prices for commodities like corn, soybeans, milk, and meat started falling in 2013. The reason for these lowered prices are the twin forces upending much of the American economy: technology and globalization. Technology has made farms more efficient than ever before. But economies of scale meant that most of the benefits accrued to corporate farmers, who built up huge holdings as smaller farmers sold out. Even as four million farms disappeared in the United States between 1948 and 2015, total farm output more than doubled. Globalization brought more farmers into the international market for crops, flooding the market with soybeans and corn and cattle and milk, and with increased supply comes lower prices. Global food production has increased 30 percent over the last decade, according to John Newton, the chief economist of the American Farm Bureau. If that’s a good thing for feeding the planet, it also reduces what comes back to producers, whose costs don’t fall with prices.

Content: And 365 Japanese Peruvians like Art Shibayama fought for the right to remain in the U.S., with the help of lawyers from the American Civil Liberties Union. While waiting for the U.S. to adjust his immigration status, Art was drafted into the U.S. Army in 1952. He served honorably for the country that was trying to kick him out. The Shibayamas were finally granted entry visas in 1954. In his later years, Art and his wife Betty became fierce advocates in the Japanese American redress movement, which established a government commission to investigate the government’s claim that incarceration had been a “military necessity.” In 1982, the commission issued a scathing rebuke of the government’s actions and condemned the “grave injustice” done during the war. Japanese Americans eventually received an official apology from the U.S. government and a reparation payment. Applications from Japanese Latin Americans like Art Shibayama, however, were denied, because the government had designated them as illegal aliens at the time of incarceration. Art continued to fight for a full apology and fair restitution on behalf of all Japanese Latin Americans. But it never came.

December 8, 2020 1:21 PM EST
F armers in India led a nationwide general strike on Tuesday, capping off weeks of protests against controversial government reforms. Hundreds of thousands of farmers have been protesting on the outskirts of Delhi for nearly two weeks, blocking many of the main arteries into the capital. Farmers are protesting against laws that deregulate the sale of crops, allowing private buyers more free rein in a marketplace that has long been dominated by government subsidies. Farmers say the reforms to laws that have long protected small landholders’ place in the market will put them at risk of losing their businesses and land to big corporations. But the government says the reforms are necessary to increase the efficiency of India’s huge but meager farming sector, which accounts for nearly half of the country’s workforce but makes up only 16% of GDP. The explosive demonstrations show the difficulty the Indian government faces passing economic reforms in such a large sector where there are many vested interests.

Although some economists say the reforms are necessary, many have criticized the manner in which the laws were imposed. In September, at the height of the pandemic in India, the government succeeded in passing three agricultural reform laws in a short session of parliament, using a parliamentary maneuver to push through the reforms in the upper house. There was also barely any consultation with farmers. “ The government did not consult a single farmers’ organization,” says Yogendra Yadav, the national president of Swaraj India, a political party that is supporting the farmers’ demands.

Since India’s “ Green Revolution ” in the 1960s, the Indian government has run a scheme where it guarantees farmers a set price for certain crops. Combined with advances in farming technology, that system has helped India move from widespread hunger to big annual food surpluses. When the COVID-19 pandemic hit in March, officials estimated there would be 100 million tons of grain available to see India through the lockdown, enough to last at least 18 months.

Content: But Can Its Residents Survive the Economic Collapse? What are the Indian government’s reforms? Since India’s “ Green Revolution ” in the 1960s, the Indian government has run a scheme where it guarantees farmers a set price for certain crops. Combined with advances in farming technology, that system has helped India move from widespread hunger to big annual food surpluses. When the COVID-19 pandemic hit in March, officials estimated there would be 100 million tons of grain available to see India through the lockdown, enough to last at least 18 months. But the system has also affected crop diversity, impacted the environment and disproportionately benefited larger farms over smaller ones. The new laws do not eradicate the guaranteed minimum prices, which will remain in place. But they do get rid of previous restrictions on corporations buying land and stockpiling commodities beyond a certain level. They allow businesses to bypass markets where farmers’ produce is normally sold, and strike direct deals that farmers worry will be less subject to regulations. They also outlaw the practice of stubble burning, a change that farmers have demanded be reversed despite its environmental benefits.

While the government says the new laws will “empower farmers,” farmers’ unions say that the rule changes are not policies they have asked for. Instead, they fear that instead of trying to help farmers, the government is opening the door to big corporations who may eventually force them off their land and out of business.

There are large groups which want to enter agriculture. The problem is the laws in the country which do not allow big corporations to purchase land.” What farmers really want, says Yadav, is the government to actually guarantee that its minimum prices for farm produce are accessible to all farmers.

Farmers from across north India have resisted the reforms, but the protests have by and large been led by unions from Punjab and Haryana, two relatively prosperous states where the government-mandated markets are most developed, and where the government buys a majority of the wheat and rice produced by farmers.

Navigating a Submarine
Submarines used radio signals to correct their inertial navigation systems. Submarines carry an inertial navigation system, which measures the boat’s motion and constantly updates position. Because it does not rely on radio signals or celestial sightings, it allows the boat to navigate while remaining hidden under the surface. To maintain accuracy, the submarine must periodically update its position using outside navigational radio signals. From the 1960s to the 1990s, Transit satellites and LORAN shore stations provided those signals. GPS has now replaced both. Navigating the USS Alabama
The Alabama was built with three navigation systems: the ship’s inertial navigation system (SINS), a Loran-C receiver, and a Transit satellite receiver system for correcting the inertial system. It has since been fitted with a GPS receiver and the Trident II navigation system. Ship’s Inertial Navigation System (SINS) Stable Platform and Housing Assembly
The Alabama has three inertial guidance units.

The Alabama has three inertial guidance units. Manufactured by the Autonetics Marine Systems Division of Rockwell International (now Boeing), the SINS was installed on the boat in 1983 and removed in 2006 after over 60 patrols. Information about the ship’s position, speed, heading, and attitude were constantly transmitted from the SINS to the missile fire-control system. The boat’s exact position was required for launching ballistic missiles. 510-uss_alabama_-_dn-sc-85-07099.jpg

During the first mass school shooting, armed students fired back
Now Texas is letting students carry guns on college campuses again in order to defend themselves
By Meagan Day
Content: “It seemed like every other guy had a rifle,” said Ann Major. “ There was a sort of cowboy atmosphere, this ‘Let’s get him’ spirit.” “I don’t know where these vigilantes came from,” said Brenda Bell, “but they took over Parlin Hall and were crashing around, firing guns. There was massive testosterone.” Another eyewitness described “two guys in white shirts and slacks running across the lawn of the Pi Phi house, hustling up to its porch with rifles at the ready.” Yet another remembered that “students with deer rifles were leaning up against telephone poles, using the pole, which is rather narrow, as their shield. And they were firing like crazy back at the tower.” Smoke could be seen from Whitman’s gun as he fired from the tower of the University of Texas administration building at people below. © AP
Luckily, none of these civilian bullets hit innocent bystanders. But none of them hit Whitman, either.

When students look at the big picture it is easy to become discouraged because it often seems insurmountable. When we teach the power of yet and help students develop a growth mindset, we need to teach them how to get there. Even high school students have a difficult time breaking down achievable steps. As teachers, we can show them how to take a big task and chunk it into smaller steps. Actually have students write down these goals, mark them off when accomplished, and reflect on what they learned from them. When students start seeing small successes that lead to bigger goals, they gain confidence and renewed effort. These small wins lead to a growth mindset. Model growth mindset for your students
Students need to see that their teachers are also growing and learning.

Content: Teach students to reflect
Giving students the opportunity to reflect on what they have learned can help them develop a growth mindset. This can be done as a class discussion so that you can model the process. For example, when you finish a project, discuss what went well, what could have been done differently, what was learned, and how the project could be improved next time. This allows students to see that everything is a work in progress and that the process of learning is important for the future. Journal entries are a great way for students to process their own learning. Try reflection questions like: What did I do well during this project? What do I need to work on next time? How did I handle challenges during this project? What is one thing I would change about this assignment?

Content: Since yogurt is obtained from the fermentation of milk by certain viable and active microorganisms, it is rich in many nutrients to fulfill the needs of your body. It is good for your stomach as it is easier to digest than milk. Also, it has an abundance of power-boosting protein and bone-building calcium which makes it one of the super-foods that you should consume to achieve your weight loss goals. Scientific research
Recommended By Colombia
Different research studies have found out that yogurt is a wonderful supplement to your weight-loss diet as it has the ability to burn your fat and trim your waistline. One particular study suggested that the obese adults who ate three servings of yogurt everyday as a part of limited calorie diet lost 60% more body fat and 22% more weight than those who didn’t consume yogurt. This is primarily owing to the findings that the protein and calcium one gets through low-fat dairy products can go a long way in burning fat and reducing weight. Since yogurt is rich in both calcium and protein, yogurt can provide you with many benefits that are wonderful for your gut health and promote weight loss. Protein in yogurt
A serving of 200 grams of yogurt can provide as many as 12 grams of protein. This high-protein component makes yogurt one of the best food items to provide you the energy for your fitness and workout regimes. As it is a protein-rich source, yogurt has been found to improve your metabolism.

With the country having the highest number of diabetic patients in the world, the sugar disease is posing an enormous health problem to our country today. Often known as the diabetes capital of the world, India has been witnessing an alarming rise in incidence of diabetes according to the International Journal of Diabetes in Developing Countries. According to a World Health Organization (WHO) fact sheet on diabetes, an estimated 3.4 million deaths are caused due to high blood sugar. The WHO also estimates that 80 per cent of diabetes deaths occur in low and middle-income countries and projects that such deaths will double between 2016 and 2030. It has been further estimated that the global burden of type-2 diabetes is expected to increase to 438 million by 2030 from 285 million people (recorded in 2010). Similarly, for India this increase is estimated to be 58%, from 51 million people in 2010 to 87 million in 2030. But debates, discussions and deliberations aside, the fundamental thing is to know what exactly is diabetes.

But debates, discussions and deliberations aside, the fundamental thing is to know what exactly is diabetes. To put it simply, it is a medical condition that is caused due to insufficient production and secretion of insulin from the pancreas in case of Type-I diabetes and defective response of insulin Type-2 diabetes. Under normal body circumstances, blood glucose levels are tightly controlled by insulin, a hormone produced by the pancreas. Insulin lowers the blood glucose level. When the blood glucose elevates (for example, after eating food), insulin is released from the pancreas to normalise the glucose level. In patients with diabetes, the absence or insufficient production of insulin causes hyperglycemia.

But it would not be wrong to say that it cannot be cured completely and lasts a lifetime. Diabetes mellitus is one of the world's major diseases. It currently affects an estimated 143 million people worldwide and the number is growing rapidly. In India, about 5 per cent population suffers from diabetes.

Content: He cites an example, "When you feel extremely hot, you want to have water but when you come inside and sit in an air-conditioned room, your thirst for water vanishes, which is not a good thing." He adds the chances of viral infections and allergies also increase. Spending long hours in air condition either at home or work can make you heat intolerant when you go outside. This may make you feel exhausted when you get exposed to the outside heat. Dizziness, fatigue, headache, difficulty in breathing even heat stroke may occur in such people. And if you suffer from allergies, spending prolonged hours in air condition can worsen your symptoms, especially if the mould is circulating in the air. Studies say if the air in an air-conditioned space is poorly circulated and contains allergens, one can suffer from allergies, itchy eyes, dizziness, headache and difficulty in breathing. Drying out of the mucous membrane can increase the incidences of respiratory conditions. Do not switch between extreme temperatures. If you are sitting in an AC room and you have to go out, switch off the AC for some time so that the heat outside doesn’t feel harsh on the body.

Opinion: Homelessness Is Spilling into San Diego’s Residential Neighborhoods

Content: Mentally ill homeless should be given the same care we give to people who have other types of health issues, such as diabetes, heart disease or cancer. Government should do all that it can to help the homeless receive the care they need, and if the homeless individual refuses treatment or services and ends up breaking the law, they will need to face the legal consequences, which include arrest and incarceration. Municipalities and local governments need a more assertive and proactive approach to manage homelessness. Quite a few of our elected officials spend a great deal of time and money on attempting to solve the homeless crisis through building homes or apartments, but what we really need to build are inpatient residential treatment centers like the Alpha Project that are specially designed to help the homeless with drug and alcohol abuse. San Diego also needs more psychiatric hospitals to help homeless individuals with mental health issues. Most homeless individuals with mental health issues in San Diego end up at Sharp Mesa Vista Hospital, the largest privately operated psychiatric hospital in city. We could use more hospitals like Mesa Vista. San Diego will spend millions of dollars building housing and shelters for the homeless, and although these efforts may be done in good faith, they do not address the problem: substance abuse and mental illness. The high cost of health care might account for the trend of releasing mentally ill homeless patients back onto the streets as quickly as possible to free up hospital beds.

3 Reasons You’ll Never Be Fully Staffed
Posted on May 31, 2013 by Tim Sackett
For any HR/Talent Pro who lives with the concept of staffing levels – becoming ‘fully staffed’ is the nebulous goal that always seems to be just out of arms reach. I’ve lived staffing levels in retail, restaurants, hospitals, etc. I know your pain – to be chasing that magic number of ’37 Nurses’ and almost always seeming like you’re at 35 or 36, the day that #37 starts, one more drops off…
There are 3 main reasons you can’t get fully staffed: 1. Your numbers are built on a perfect world, which you don’t live in. 2. Your hiring managers refuse to over-hire. 3. Your organization actually likes to be under staffed. Ok, let me explain.

Content: 2. Your hiring managers refuse to over-hire. 3. Your organization actually likes to be under staffed. Ok, let me explain. The concept of being fully staffed is this perfect-case scenario – a theory really – in business that there is a ‘perfect’ amount of manpower you should have for the perfect amount of business that you have at any given moment. That’s a lot of perfects to happen all at once! Usually your finance team comes up with the numbers based on budgeting metrics. These numbers are drawn down to monthly, weekly, daily and hourly measures to try and give you precise number of ‘bodies’ needed at any given time. You already know all of this.

What you don’t know is why this type of forecasting is so broken when it comes to staffing. These models are predictive of having a fully functioning staff to meet the perfect number needed. Fully trained, fully productive, etc. If the model says you need 25 Nurses to run a floor, in reality you probably need many more than that. Finance doesn’t like to hear this because they don’t want to pay 28 Nurses when the budget is for 25 Nurses.

You’re in HR, you know the reality – staffing 25 Nursing openings (or servers, or assembly workers, or software developers, etc.) takes more than 25 Nurses. You have Nurses who are great and experienced and you have ones who are as green as grass -you have ones retiring in a few months, some taking leave, some leaving for other jobs, etc. Because of this you have a budget for overtime – why? – because you need coverage.
