Red Dots In The Butcher's Basement
Cult Of The Basement the Jazz Butcher's seventh and most recent album, ranks among his most adventurous. Like the ones before it, the album contains far more than meets the eye. When Pat Fish , the always interesting and entertaining man who is the Jazz Butcher, visited Seattle, it was story-time. A tragic illness, a looney French artist, and three bizarre men from Vienna, we got it all.
PF: Over the years, we've had the food album, the bus album, the drink album, and now, ladies and gentlemen, we have the death album. This is the death album. It was all recorded in the middle of the night. We went nocturnal in the first twenty four hours of recording, from 6pm to 6am, middle of the winter, farmhouse middle of the English countryside. There were a lot of curious concepts going off there. For example, there was this thing involving the jackal-headed dead. It was a kind of ancient Egyptian death cult thing whereby the bathroom at the studio became "the chamber". You can sort of picture a sort of Howard Cater thing: "I-I-I'm entering the chamber now." I actually recorded that little 12 string bit (at the start of Turtle Bait in "the chamber".
MMC: Were there secret ceremonies associated with this cult?
Red dot.
For those of you who aren't familiar with our policies at KCMU, a "red dot" is a song we cannot play on the air because it includes some type of naughty word.
Or concept or cigarette. Damn!
The Basement.....
Last summer (1989) just before we came over here- was a very weird time. Kizzy was suddenly hit with a brain tumor. We spent a lot of time in our friend Harry's apartment (a basement), and things got really twisted. People were going quite mad. We went to America and did the tour with Richard Formby taking Kizzy's place. When we got back to England, we went straight into the studio. We were still completely mad, and this kind of basement vibe was still there. It was a little instrumental called Schweinhund. It was supposed to be a kind of Argentine-Paraguayan thing. Schweinhund, kinda sexy. Eventually we realized that what we were really talking about was the basement (so we renamed it The Basement) I don't remember who originally had the idea, but we thought we could do little, different versions of it (on the L.P.) The version on side two before Girl-Go is supposed to be the Syphillitic Argentinian Palm Court Orchestra version, and then there's the accordion version called-never mind, I'm English.
Yes, I understand.
Well it all makes perfect sense, if you start at the top and go through to the end, honest. It does. It's like Sex And Travel. It's a movie, and its flirting with the dark shit. Damn, red dot. Its our goth (as in Gothic) album, and we're happy with it.
Kizzy O'Callaghan ....
Kizzy's far too sick to tour with us now. He might die at any minute. He's very positive in his head, but any minute he might go into a coma and croak. And that's how it is. On this tour we've got a 21 year old wunderkind named Julian Poole taking his place. We met Julian through the The Blue Aeroplanes. Alex Lee , one of their guitarists, does some great stuff on our new LP. When we were recording, he kept saying, "Oh, I've got this friend who's better than me!" That was Julian, and it's mad really. Julian is miles away the youngest of our group.
Your albums have-from time to time-included some rather unusual names among the credits, and I'm sometimes not sure if its you or someone else.
I promise to tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth.
Pascal Legras, the person credited with the album covers of Cult Of The Basement and Big Planet, Scarey Planet.
Pascal? Yeah, Pascal's from Paris. We call him Jean-Pierre Looney because he is quite mad. He first came to us in 1986 and offered us a massive painting at a gig in France. It was like a cave painting, the sort of thing you'd see in a cave, of a male figure with gigantic-how can I say this? - Ladies bits up his chest.
Red dots?
Yes, a gigantic red dot right up its chest. Phil, our manager, looked at me and said, "Pat, I think he's trying to tell you something."
And you kept in touch?
Eventually, yes. At first, we just dismissed him as a complete looney. We hacked that painting to pieces and threw it away. I later discovered that they're worth about L 1,000. each. Pascal does all kinds of stuff. He's working with Tom Waits at the minute, and John Cale is a friend. Pascal's just a weird pushy French artist who likes rock and roll. Those are his feet on the cover of Cult of the Basement.
Von Dämmerung ....
There are these three Von Dämmerung brothers. They're from Vienna. They have a fanzine called Sinful Beat. They're completely deranged. Karel wrote the liner notes for Cult Of The Basement. He has a band now with his brothers Emil and Otto. They call themselves The Black Eg. and the spell egg "e-g." It's just heinous. Musically, its really just an amateur bedroom version of the Justified Ancients of Mu (an early Bill Drummond group which relied heavily on sampling). They're completely diseased Central European lunatics. In an earlier age, they would have been burned at the stake. I love em'.
They seem right in sync with Cult Of The Basement.
Oh, they're right into it! Karel actually came by when we were recording it. He was into all this jackal-headed dead business, Kizzy's "Hero of Chernobyl" haircut, and all the rest of it. By the time Karel showed up for the recording, Kizzy was out of the hospital and had had radiation treatment. His hair had fallen out and...oh, God.
Mr Odd....
Mr. Odd is a real person. He's a funny, solitary old chap. The day after we finished recording Mr. Odd , Harry, the owner and proprietor phones us up and says that he's just found Mr. Odd decomposing. Mr. Odd was dead, and he lived in the basement next door. I mean this is really the death album.
Daycare Nation is about Madame's policy to turn people out of asylums and care homes and leave them to wander the streets, a policy she laughingly calls care in the community. It's just basically a song about poor old boys who cant look after themselves. It's one of the albums token sincere numbers. And before you all write in and complain or throw stuff, the title of the song was just floating around the studio. We were taking the red dot out of Sonic Youth, a band we admire intensely.
Is "Madame" the same woman who is behind the English Poll Tax?
Oh, yeah.
Any thoughts on that?
Only one: red dot. It's so fatuous. It's beyond medieval. It's laughable. Fortunately, no ones paying it.
Has there been any anti-German sentiment in England since the reunification of East and West Germany?
Yes, there has been some discontent, but it basically comes from people who have never been to Germany, people who don't realize that for the most part Germany is what Britain should have been by now if it had not taken an appalling turn. In Germany, people remember that rights carry obligations and vice versa.
In Britain, its "I want it! Don't touch me!" It's just kinda sick. But still, anyone who's got his head brain wired up right is going to be a little bit concerned about German reunification and how it's managed. Not least, no doubt, the people who used to live in the DDR.

60 seconds on 'Zero standing charge' tariffs
Marcel | Edited by Steve N
Updated 21 Oct 2016
The death of zero standing charge tariffs has been exaggerated. If you only use gas or electricity occasionally – say, if you're not at home for a chunk of the year – a 'zero standing charge' tariff could slash your bills. Here's how to work out if and when it's right for you...
So, what is a standing charge? Energy bills work a bit like telephone bills. With phones, you pay line rental to have the line and then are billed for specific calls on top. With energy, the standing charge is the cost of having a gas and electricity supply – then you pay usage charges on top.
Therefore the standing charge is the fee you pay to your energy supplier simply because it gives you access to energy. It's paid at a flat rate – ranging from 10p-80p/day for gas and 5p-60p/day for electricity.
Right, but you're talking zero standing charges, so I presume I don't have to pay it? Yes... and no. According to rules introduced in 2013 to supposedly simplify tariffs, all new tariffs must have a standing charge – yet, ridiculously, this can be set to zero.
However, in its investigation into the energy market earlier this year, the Competition and Markets Authority recommended removing some of the rules introduced to simplify tariffs – including the one requiring all tariffs to have a standing charge. Energy regulator Ofgem has said it will remove this rule at the end of November.
One tariff that currently has standing charges set at zero is Ebico's Equipower and Equigas. For dual fuel, you can also choose Ebico's Equidual. It isn't a separate tariff as such, but is an option available via our Cheap Energy Club and comparison sites which combines Ebico's gas and electricity tariffs.
There are also a number of electricity-only and prepay tariffs which have zero standing charges.
Why would I pay a standing charge if I don't have to? Like anything else that has variable charges, it's about the interaction. So if you have no standing charge you may pay more for each unit you use – if you have a high standing charge, you may pay less for usage. So the key is finding the sweet spot depending on how much energy you use.
Yet for those it isn't right for, paying a standing charge can be a nightmare, as some found when their tariffs had standing charges added after Ofgem changed the regulations. Back then, MoneySaver John told us:
"My electricity bill will rise by more than 1,800%. That's not a typo. I'm told I must now pay a daily standing charge in addition to the tariff rate.
"My garage is remote from my house. It has electricity which I need intermittently. My annual bill is around �6/year but now I'll be forced to pay the standing charge plus the rate per kWh [kilowatt hour], taking the bill from �6 to around �110. I will be paying for something I never use. Thanks Ofgem, really acting in our interests here!"
Got it, so how low does my usage need to be to consider a zero standing charge tariff? This is a tricky one, but we can suggest a general guide:
If your home is empty for nine months or more per year, it's worth checking whether a zero standing charge tariff wins for you.
Again let's emphasise that we're saying to check – not that it will win for you. There are many other variables.
Likewise, if you only use a very small amount of energy year-round – say the bill is for a separate garage away from your house – then it's worth checking if a zero standing charge tariff is best.
So do I just pop onto a comparison site to find which is cheapest? Nooooo � it's not as simple as that. Be very careful using a comparison site. Most people just put their monthly usage in, but then the comparison site assumes in its calculations that you use this (seasonally adjusted) every month. But if you're looking at zero standing charges, you're likely to have variable usage over the course of the year – so the estimate will be way off.
OK, so how do I compare to see if it's right for me then? Don't worry, it's not too difficult. Our Cheap Energy Club allows you to filter to just look at zero standing charge tariffs to see which is cheapest for you. Yet the key is to enter your ANNUAL usage, preferably in kWh. If you can't and only have a monthly bill, you'll need to factor in how many months of the year you're at home.
For example, if you pay �100 a month when you're at home, but are only at home seven months a year, enter �700 as your annual bill. Do that and you should get a fair comparison.

StorageCraft ShadowControl
Take charge of your disaster recovery plan with remote monitoring of backup jobs
StorageCraft® ShadowControl™ puts power in your hands. ShadowControl is a free monitoring and management appliance for IT environments protected by StorageCraft ShadowProtect® or StorageCraft ShadowProtect SPX backup software. ShadowControl delivers a central monitoring and reporting console for ShadowProtect or SPX operations and for StorageCraft ImageManager™ backup management software operations.
Additionally, for SPX-protected endpoints, ShadowControl offers:
- Push install and activation of the latest version of ShadowProtect or SPX to unprotected Windows or Linux endpoints on the same network
- Policy-based backup-job management that lets administrators quickly and easily assign a consistent backup job configuration to groups of endpoints
We designed this software for managed service providers (MSPs) and in-house IT administrators who oversee a disaster recovery solution for dozens, hundreds, or thousands of systems. If this sounds like you, ShadowControl can make your life simpler.
ShadowControl makes oversight manageable
ShadowControl works by deploying an "agent" (a small, unobtrusive software application) to each "endpoint" (computer within the monitored disaster recovery environment). The agent monitors ShadowProtect, SPX, and StorageCraft ImageManager activity on these endpoints and sends data to the ShadowControl "appliance."
The appliance (a Linux-based server running as a virtual machine or on dedicated hardware) evaluates endpoint data against rules that you define to determine if the endpoint is behaving normally or having a problem. The appliance alerts you to problems so you can respond quickly and resolve issues efficiently.
A single ShadowControl appliance can manage thousands of endpoints. Organize the endpoints into categories and subcategories that are logical for your organization, and then remotely monitor every ShadowProtect, SPX, and StorageCraft ImageManager installation across the organization. Because you can see at a glance how endpoint backup jobs are doing and receive alerts when problems arise, you can address any issues before they become critical and expensive.
Features and benefits of ShadowControl
Push Install
- Do a push install of the latest SPX or ShadowProtect version to multiple unprotected Windows and Linux endpoints quickly and easily
- Choose to use a .CSV list of IP addresses for discovery of physical and virtual endpoints that you want to monitor and manage with ShadowControl
- Enable automatic activation of newly installed SPX or ShadowProtect agents through ShadowControl by either a) importing text-based lists of perpetual-license product keys or b) applying MSP product keys generated through your MSP portal account
Remote Monitoring
- Monitor your mixed Windows and Linux IT environment from one pane of glass
- Get a dashboard view that presents summarized, sortable endpoint status data from across the entire network
- See endpoint status data such as endpoint type, license status and type, managed folders, and backup jobs for all endpoints running ShadowProtect, SPX, and StorageCraft ImageManager
- Quickly drill down to find detailed information about specific endpoints
- Organize endpoints into categories and subcategories based on company or department name, physical location, hardware type, reporting needs, or other shared traits for easier oversight
Policy-based Management of Backup Jobs
- Simplify backup-job management by applying backup-job policies to SPX endpoints
- Assign a default job policy so that all SPX endpoints automatically receive a backup-job configuration as soon as they are subscribed to the ShadowControl appliance
- Create custom backup-job policies and apply them to specific groups of SPX endpoints
Hypervisor Integration
- Push-install a ShadowControl agent to any virtual machine (VM) endpoint you wish to monitor with the optional StorageCraft Plug-in
- View all VMs running on a hypervisor host and automatically detect which VMs are not protected by the ShadowProtect agent
- Push-install a ShadowProtect agent to any unprotected VMs quickly and easily and then apply a pre-configured backup job so protection can start immediately
- Monitor the current status of your VM backup jobs, including last backup time, backup errors, and next scheduled backup
- Transition from VMware vCenter or Microsoft System Center to the ShadowControl web console seamlessly
Configurable Alerts
- Set alert rules for a variety of conditions, including failed backup job, backup failure rate, destination disk usage, license status, and replication queue status
- Use the same rules for all endpoints, or create multiple "rule policies" and assign endpoints to them based on any criteria you define
- Receive automatic email alerts when a status change to "warning" or "critical" occurs on any of the endpoints you are monitoring
- Send email alerts automatically to those responsible for particular endpoints
- Choose to receive a summary or a detailed report that can include ShadowProtect and StorageCraft ImageManager endpoint details as well as storage statistics
- Choose to receive reports on a daily, weekly, or monthly schedule
- Have regular reports generated for clients that show the endpoints for which they're responsible and provide feedback about the state of their disaster recovery solution
StorageCraft ShadowControl doesn't require you to purchase a license to use it. However, in order to install the software, you will need to accept the End-User License Agreement.
Technical specifications
ShadowControl appliance
The appliance uses a Linux operating system. You can run the appliance on standalone hardware or as a virtual machine.
For requirements and installation instructions, visit the ShadowControl User Guide: Installing the ShadowControl Appliance.
ShadowControl agent
Install the ShadowControl agent on each desktop, laptop, or server you wish to monitor. The ShadowControl agent's hardware and software requirements are the same as those for ShadowProtect and SPX, except that ShadowControl doesn't support Microsoft Windows 2000.

Plenty of training opportunities for skilled trades, great pay and benefits. Lower and middle level managers are usually pretty decent to work for. Great engineering support.
Cutbacks have created a ridiculous work load at times. Many of the best managers and engineers have been let go. Future skilled trades hires will still get the same good hourly rate, but with reduced benefits.
Advice to Management
Leadership needs to study how things were done at the floor level at Saturn. There is an amazing amount of talent out there that you're no longer utilizing!
Benefits are decent, and pay is also decent in terms of its industry. People are knowledgeable and friendly. The work environment is lax.
Things are getting slower here. There is not too much more exciting work to do now that a lot of plants are shutting down.
Advice to Management
There is no leadership at all it seems. Many of the current leaders are just selfish, hiding in their offices.
Helpful (1)
Older workforce. May be opportunities for younger employees.
Ability to move from one division to another.
Competitive pay for job titles.
Low employee morale.
Decreasing benefits.
Lack of advancement opportunities due to downsizing.
Job Insecurity due to outsourcing model.
Expected to work long work hours on an ongoing basis.
Expect employees to be happy to have a job and be happy to expand workload when resources leave without being replaced.
Advice to Management
Change culture to value employees. Need to streamline/eliminate layers of management needed in order to make a decision. Drive decision making to lower levels.

To widen the probe against former Jharkhand Chief Minister Madhu Koda and his associates for alleged illegal investments worth Rs 2,000 crores, the IT department and ED will share information with various central economic intelligence agencies.
More than a week after the Income Tax department conducted nationwide searches at more than 70 properties of Koda and his aides, intelligence and enforcement agencies like the Central Economic Intelligence Bureau, Financial Intelligence Unit-India, will have access to the findings of the searches, sources in the Finance Ministry said.
The Directorate General of Intelligence (Central Excise) and Narcotics Control Bureau will also have access to the findings of the searches.
"As the initial investigation has found national and international investments in this case, it is essential to check and verify the sources, routing and final destination of such huge amount of money," the sources said.
Every agency, which would share the inputs from the ED and the IT department, would be asked to carry out thorough checks according to their respective mandates, they said.
Market regulator SEBI and the RBI may also be informed as the seizures have shown a lot of investment by Koda and his associates in the share market and they are also in the possession of multiple bank accounts, they said.

Comment The phone made me buy a new one (Score 2) 191
I had a Droid and a Droid 3. It felt like after a year of use it would start running slower and the battery wouldn't hold a fraction of a charge that it used to. After 18 months they were almost unusable (coincidentally that was about the time Verizon would offer me an upgrade). Now I have a OnePlus phone that I purchased two years ago. As far as I can tell it runs as well as day one. I'm not sure if the Motorola phones were crap or if it is a matter of forced obsolescence, but I have almost no desire to upgrade my phone.

Owner info
Year Purchased: 2013
About the owner: We're a beach-loving Portland-based family with three kids (ages 17, 13, and 9) plus a German shepherd and young French bulldog. We love to hike Tillamook Head and run on the beach. Our kids boogie board and are learning to surf. Our experience restoring a 1907 house in southeast Portland inspired our work on the Ocean House and, in particular, our commitment to making sure that our guests enjoy a healthy, creative space.
Why the Owner Chose Seaside, OR, USA:
After nearly two decades of visiting the north Oregon coast, we came upon the beach house in summer 2013. It hadn't been significantly worked on since the 1950s and we were inspired to purchase it and restore it with the goal of creating a long-term family retreat. We're excited to be able to share it with friends, family, and our VRBO guests.

RAID CS147 Dr. Sin-Min Lee By Kenneth Chen
History Norman Ken Ouchi at IBM was awarded U.S. Patent 4,092,732 titled "System for recovering data stored in failed memory unit" in 1978 In 1987, RAID levels 1 through 5 were formally defined by David A. Patterson, Garth A. Gibson and Randy H. Katz in the paper, "A Case for Redundant Arrays of Inexpensive Disks (RAID)"
About RAID Early disk drives were costly and bulky They required strict environmental control Solution: RAID -- It stands for "Redundant Array of Independent Disks Idea: Link up a bunch of small, inexpensive disk. Also often referred to as JBOD (just a bunch of disks) Many different RAID method exists
RAID LEVEL 0 RAID 0 implements data stripping Pro: Least cost, very fast on read and write Con: Not reliable, no-fault tolerance
RAID 1 RAID 1 implements data mirroring Pro: Excellent Protection against crashing Con: Slow on write, costly and inefficient
RAID 2 RAID 2 implements bit stripping with ECC Pro: Good performance on both read and write. Good protection. Cheaper than RAID 1 Con: Hamming code generation is slow, still expensive, no commercial use
RAID 3 RAID 3 implements bit stripping with parity disk Pro: Very good performance on read, write. Good protection. Efficient. Con: Complicated controller design.
RAID 4 RAID 4 implements data stripping with parity drive. Pro: fast on read. Good protection Con: VERY slow write speed. Difficult data rebuild. Complex design. Not used in real life
RAID 5 RAID 5 implements data stripping with distributed parity Pro: Fastest read speed, decent write speed. Good protection. Cost effective = commercial success Con: Most complex design. Difficult to rebuilt data.
RAID 6 RAID 6 implements data stripping with dual error protection Pro: Excellent protection, can sustain multiple hits. Con: Complex to implement.
RAID 10 RAID 10 = 1 + 0 implements data stripping with mirror drive. Pro: Excellent protection. Good read and write speed compare to other. Con: Very expensive.
RAID DP RAID DP = Double Parity implements data stripping with dual parity disks. Pro: Excellent protection. Reasonable cost. Con: Performance not as good as RAID 5.

Ukraine's Ambassador Andriy Shevchenko: Canada consistently supports Ukraine29.11.2016 09:40 818
The strengthening of sanctions against Russia is a logical continuation of Canada's coherent policy on the non-recognition of the annexation of Crimea.
In an interview with Ukrinform, Ambassador of Ukraine to Canada, Andriy Shevchenko said: "The tightening of sanctions is a logical continuation of Canada's policy regarding the non-recognition of the annexation of Crimea and support for Ukraine".
According to him, it is very important that Canada calls on other development countries to be solidary on this issue and together counteract Russia's aggression.
He stressed that "Canada's position on the unity among the countries of the free world to put pressure on Russia is just as important for us as today's decision [on extending the sanctions list]".
The Ambassador of Ukraine to Canada also thanked Canada for its consistent support for Ukraine.
On Monday, November 29, Canada imposed sanctions on 15 individuals, including six members of Russia's Duma living in Crimea.

Home with a Natural Elegance
Wednesday, January 27
Marie Worsaae's apartment is beautifully done in the natural color palette consisting of green, coral red and creamy gray tones. There is a nice mix of Scandinavian design with rustic pieces and a common everyday objects. I really like the kitchen style - the combination of wood cabinets, green wall and black lamps is interesting and cozy. Another lovely detail is the use of coral red at the mostly white spots in the house, it looks really fabulous.

- The making of smuggler
- Trailers
- Previews
Eccentric Japanese director Katsuhito Ishii (A Taste of Tea, Funky Forest: First Contact) takes us on a wild ride through the Japanese underworld in this darkly comic, visually dazzling tale of a failed actor who goes to extraordinary lengths to pay off an unjust Yakuza debt. Down on his luck Kinuta (Satoshi Tsumabuki) is gambling away his last quarters in a dingy casino when he's suddenly approached with a lucrative opportunity. But it's more of a trap than a chance to get rich, and as a result Kinuta is forced to become a smuggler for the Yakuza. Apprenticing under tough talking driver Joe (Masatoshi Nagase), Kinuta joins in transporting the remains of a murdered Yakuza boss. But the job won't be easy, because their cargo's sadistic right-hand man Kawashima (Masahiro Takashima) is out for blood, and won't rest until his boss' killer has been avenged. That killer is Vertebrae (Masanobu Ando), a legendary assassin who can defeat a room of heavily-armed men with nothing but a pair of nunchucks, and whose loyal partner Viscera is never far behind. When Kinuta comes into contact with some of the most violent men in the Yakuza underworld, he discovers a side of himself that he never knew existed, and learns that his acting skills may not be as dull as he once thought. Co-starring Yasuko Matsuyuki and Hikari Mitsushima, Smuggler was adapted from the cult manga from author Shohei Manabe. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

I promised to keep you all updated and I've tried to do that on my instagram and instastories - so go follow me @cassiedaves and check out the hashtag #cassiedaveshousejobchronicles.
Just a quick back story for those that might be new around here and wondering what the heck this housemanship thing is. Housemanship or Housejob is the compulsory one year internship/work that med doctors have to do after graduating.
I've talked a lot about it on the blog because it was really a struggle for me to get a placement after I graduated, so you can catch up on all that quickly below.
My first posting was in Obstetrics and Gynaecology and I was really happy when I got my appointment letter and saw that I was starting off my rotations with O&G, because I prayed for it. It was one of my favourite posting as a medical student - easily understandable and not as stressful as the others so I wanted it to slowly ease into the whole work.
I started out really green about everything - I couldn't take samples (take blood from someone) or set a line (the thing they use to connect a drip to you), didn't know the 411 on administering intravenous drugs or doing a solo ward round but looking back now, it just makes me smile because I was worried about it all but look who got better with time!
Two house officers (what we are called) are placed on ward calls everyday and my unit also has unit calls approximately 7 times a month where we basically either work 24hrs or 48hrs at a stretch (back to back) to resume normal work after that period.
I'm not sure who thought up the idea of making humans work back to back like that but that person deserves a beating to be honest!
On unit call days, we either man the gynaecological emergency room at the accident and emergency or labour ward. I enjoyed labour ward postings the most despite the fact that pregnant women have this annoying habit of somehow presenting themselves at night when you're already fagged out. And then we have to spend the rest of the time monitoring them - counting how many contractions they're having and checking their vitals. Gash
My first few weeks found me almost on call every single weekend! It was quite distressing for me because I was being cheated but I kept trying to just hold it all in and not complain much or make a fuss. At some point though, I just had to speak out and also luckily for me, my Senior registrar realized what was happening and we finally had a fair call roaster drawn up. Phew!
One thing I wasn't looking forward to was working with people that weren't my classmates but I found relating with and bonded with most of my colleagues quite easily. With time, we became a sort of close knit group. I actually sort of enjoyed my stay in the unit I was in because my Superiors were not entirely toxic people.
Working here in LUTH is more than a bit stressful, most things don't work as it should and this makes the work more stressful and a bit frustrating.
Imagine having to take samples for a couple of patients and there are no investigation bottles or forms on the ward, or the nurses aren't just being helpful. *sigh*
I don't think I need to exercise anymore with the amount of walking I do on most days here.
I find that a lot of people have zero ideas about some of these things so here's just a quick list of the common cases we see.
- Fibroid - The commonest surgery we do is myomectomy - to remove a fibroid. Fibroids are so common, it is distressing!
- Infertility - It always hits me how many people are out there looking for kids.
- Amenorrhea - Reduction in menstrual flow.
- Polycystic ovarian syndrome - Another really common condition in women of reproductive age that causes infrequent or prolonged menstrual periods (can cause infertility), excess hair growth, acne, and obesity.
- Pregnancy induced hypertension and Preclampsia - Preeclampsia is a serious and potentially life threatning condition in pregnancy characterized by high blood pressure, sometimes with fluid retention and proteinuria.
- Gestational diabetes mellitus - when a woman without diabetes, develops high blood sugar levels during pregnancy
- Ruptured ectopic pregnancy
- Incomplete miscarriage
- Threatened miscarriage
- Cervical cancer - talked about this one days ago on my twitter. Check it out and ensure you get your pap smear done.
- Hyperemesis Gravidarum.
- HIV in pregnancy : HIV is so common and you would never suspect it! At least 1 in every 3 patients we see have the virus and it is so scary, makes me paranoid. I've had a couple of blood spills and I just go crazy cleaning myself with bleach and savlon after confirming they aren't HIV positive. This work di very risky, small needle prick and your status will just change overnight.
Ladies, You can also do a quick read up on all I've listed!
If you're a doctor (medical) currently doing your housemanship or already done, I'll love to read about your own experience so please leave me a comment.
How time flies though! It seemed like one year that would take forever and now I'm done with my first three months. I definitely had/still have moments where I can't just imagine being this stressed everyday for the rest of my life but working with some crazy(in a fun way) colleagues made it all a bit bearable.
I'm just looking forward to the rest of the year zooming off this quickly and for it all to come to an end.
I start medicine posting next and I hear that its pretty gangster and a whole lot more stressful. Not looking forward to it but I know that I'll definitely adapt and as always, I plan to still take everyday one day at a time. That's what kept me sane during these long calls and whenever I got too tired or stressed out.
P.S - Took these pictures with my infinix hot S. Check out my review of the phone here.
P.P.S - Check out other posts in my med diary here.
Terminologies :
- Housemanship/Housejob : the compulsory one year internship/work that med doctors have to do after graduating.
- House Officer : What doctors doing their housemanship are called.
- Registrar (Can be senior or junior reg) : a hospital doctor undergoing specialist training in a particular field of medicine. A registrar is senior to a houseman but junior to a consultant.
- Ward Round : Visit to all the patients that are in the section (ward) of the hospital that the team is responsible for to review the patients and see how they are doing. We usually have two ward rounds - morning and evening
- On Call : On call" means that you are in charge of part of hospital - usually for a whole day, overnight, over the weekend or over a defined time period. If something happens with a patient when you're on call at any time, the nurses call you to deal with it.
- Labour ward : Where the pregnant women come to deliver.

Welcome to My little blue designs. I am a mother to two little girls with beautiful big blue eyes and they are the inspiration for my store name, "my little blue designs".
Since being at home with my girls I have rediscovered my love of sewing, craft and just being creative. And this is why I started my Etsy store, to enable me to create things that hopefully others will like and enjoy as much as I do. I am always being inspired by my discoveries of the many beautiful things in the online world and therefore I hope my shop will be forever changing and evolving!
I hope you enjoy browsing my store!

Reason No. 15058203 Why I Love Working Across the Street from Powerplant
It's Monday morning and I'm harassed and on the way to work I managed to tear my left contact lens and rip my stockings while stuck in traffic on the Skyway. But thankfully I just have to wait thirty more minutes before the mall opens and I can replace them both, and grab a chai latte from Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf on my way back to the office.
Slightly tangential upate: On my way to the optical shop I ran into EJ Afzelius, a college blockmate whom I hadn't seen in ages. "EJ, you look so…" I wanted to say "grown up" but instead I said "dignified." In college he always looked like he'd just rolled out of bed. Today he was wearing a tie and pressed slacks and he was carrying a briefcase. Man, has it really been that long? Are we really that old?
We exchanged the usual pleasantries, how are you, what do you do now. Upon finding out that I'm in educational reform, EJ exclaimed, "That was your term paper!" It took me a while to remember what he was talking about. For an English class in second year we wrote term papers which we presented in class. EJ said my presentation really made an impression on him, and it was nice to see that I'd come full circle. Funny, the things people remember about you.

Delhi Government has identified five laboratories to test samples of people suspected to have contracted swine flu, taking the total number of such facilities in the city to eight.
"Five more laboratories will start testing samples from today," Delhi Chief Minister Sheila Dikshit told PTI.
With this, the capital has eight laboratories where samples can be tested for the viral disease which has claimed around 30 lives across the country.
Presently, samples are tested at the National Institute of Communicable Diseases, AIIMS and Patel Chest Institute in New Delhi.
Asked about some schools preferring to close down, she said there was no need for that. However, she said, she would warn people against being careless.
The Union Health Ministry has recently allowed state governments to involve private hospitals and laboratories for effectively tackling the spread of the disease.
The Ministry had asked states to allow such facilities to conduct tests and treat the affected if private hospitals and laboratories conform to the guidelines issued by it.

Singer-songwriter Kelly Hogan tended bar at the Hideout for many years--at least when she wasn't too busy making records and/or touring with a multitude of people and bands, most notably her pal Neko Case. (The two also had funny voice bits on an episode of Aqua Teen Hunger Force.) Hogan be part of the upcoming A.V. Fest/Hideout Block Party in September as well, so we figured it'd be fun to have her assemble her current band on the bar's front porch. Hogan chose a fantastic summer anthem to play for us: The Hold Steady's "Constructive Summer," from 2008's Stay Positive. Hogan's newest record, I Like To Keep Myself In Pain, finds her singing new songs that were written specifically for her by friends and collaborators like Andrew Bird, Vic Chesnutt, The Magnetic Fields, and lots more.

Development of the role of national anti-doping organisations in the fight against doping: from past to future.
Kamber, Matthias
When action against doping began, sport itself was, as a rule, responsible for anti-doping measures and governments often had only a subsidiary function. However, due to doping scandals or doping allegations, the formation of independent anti-doping organisations (NADOs) was already discussed in the 1990s in some countries as guarantors for clean sports. In the course of the doping scandal at the Tour de France in 1998 and the systematic intervention of the French state, the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) was founded 1999 at an international level. In the following years, the WADA-model was often copied at a national level and a multitude of independent NADOs came into being. NADOs play a key role worldwide in combating doping. Their influence in developing an international anti-doping policy and implementing it in the form of standards and regulations is today, however, low; they are not directly represented in the decision-making bodies of the WADA. This should be changed with regard to elaborating the new World Anti-Doping Programme for 2014.
Reducing acquisition risk through integrated systems of systems engineering
NASA Astrophysics Data System (ADS)
Gross, Andrew; Hobson, Brian; Bouwens, Christina
In the fall of 2015, the Joint Staff J7 (JS J7) sponsored the Bold Quest (BQ) 15.2 event and conducted planning and coordination to combine this event into a joint event with the Army Warfighting Assessment (AWA) 16.1 sponsored by the U.S. Army. This multipurpose event combined a Joint/Coalition exercise (JS J7) with components of testing, training, and experimentation required by the Army. In support of Assistant Secretary of the Army for Acquisition, Logistics, and Technology (ASA(ALT)) System of Systems Engineering and Integration (SoSE&I), Always On-On Demand (AO-OD) used a system of systems (SoS) engineering approach to develop a live, virtual, constructive distributed environment (LVC-DE) to support risk mitigation utilizing this complex and challenging exercise environment for a system preparing to enter limited user test (LUT). AO-OD executed a requirements-based SoS engineering process starting with user needs and objectives from Army Integrated Air and Missile Defense (AIAMD), Patriot units, Coalition Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance (CISR), Focused End State 4 (FES4) Mission Command (MC) Interoperability with Unified Action Partners (UAP), and Mission Partner Environment (MPE) Integration and Training, Tactics and Procedures (TTP) assessment. The SoS engineering process decomposed the common operational, analytical, and technical requirements, while utilizing the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) Distributed Simulation Engineering and Execution Process (DSEEP) to provide structured accountability for the integration and execution of the AO-OD LVC-DE. As a result of this process implementation, AO-OD successfully planned for, prepared, and executed a distributed simulation support environment that responsively satisfied user needs and objectives, demonstrating the viability of an LVC-DE environment to support multiple user objectives and support risk mitigation activities for systems in the acquisition process.
Neurobiología de la impulsividad y los trastornos de la conducta alimentaria*
Orozco-Cabal, Luis Felipe; Herin, David
Resumen Introducción La impulsividad es un rasgo de personalidad multidimensional relacionado con el control del comportamiento y las emociones. Está presente de manera diversa en los trastornos de la conducta alimentaria, particularmente, en la bulimia nerviosa (BN). Aunque la relación entre la impulsividad y BN ha sido objeto de numerosas investigaciones, en la actualidad se desconocen los sustratos neurobiológicos de esta relación. Objetivos Discutir críticamente la evidencia que sugiere que las alteraciones en los sistemas neuronales relacio-nados con las funciones ejecutivas, con la formación de preferencias y con la regulación de los estados emocionales sirven como base para el rasgo de personalidad impulsiva, así como su estado en subgrupos de pacientes con BN. Métodos Búsqueda selectiva de la literatura relevante. Resultados y conclusiones Esta discusión ilustra la complejidad de la relación entre la impulsividad y BN, donde la impulsividad actúa como un factor de vulnerabilidad que puede sensibilizar al sujeto con BN a estados emocionales negativos, durante los cuales modifica el impacto de estímulos internos y externos sobre el comportamiento y su regulación, favoreciendo así patrones de comportamiento maladaptativos e inflexibles.

Late stillbirth: a ten year cohort study.
Robalo, Raquel; Pedroso, Célia; Amaral, Njila; Soares, Clara
Introdução: A morte fetal tardia é um acontecimento que se mantém na prática diária, apesar de protocolos de vigilância pré-natal e intraparto. Objectivo: Análise dos factores que contribuíram para a causa principal ou condições associadas a morte fetal tardia num período de 10 anos Métodos: Coorte retrospectiva de 208 gestações tardias simples, cujo parto em unidade terciária de cuidados perinatais resultou no nascimento de um nado morto, num período de dez anos. Através de consulta de processo clínico foram analisados dados clínicos, laboratoriais e resultados de estudo anatomo-patológico feto-placentário. Resultados: A incidência de morte fetal tardia foi de 3,5 por cada 1000 nascimentos. Não foram encontradas quaisquer tendências na incidência de MF tardia ao longo do tempo de estudo. Em 12 (5,8%) casos a morte fetal foi um acontecimento intraparto e 72 (35%) eram gestações de termo. Em 14% a gravidez não foi vigiada. A IG média de diagnóstico foi 34 semanas. A principal causa de morte associou-se a patologia fetal, tendo sido identificados factores fetais em 59 casos, destes 25% foram considerados leves para a idade gestacional. Em 24.5% dos casos a causa de morte foi inexplicada. Identificaram-se factores de risco materno em 21% dos casos, a patologia hipertensiva foi frequente e foi associada a idade gestacional precoce (p = 0,028). Conclusões: Não houve oscilações na incidência de morte fetal tardia ao longo dos dez anos avaliados. A incidência foi de 3,5‰, idêntica à descrita em países desenvolvidos. Cerca de um quarto das mortes fetais foram inexplicadas. A patologia materna mais frequente foi a hipertensão crónica.
EHD Approach to Tornadic Thunderstorms and Methods of Their Destruction
NASA Astrophysics Data System (ADS)
Kikuchi, H.
In many cases, tornadoes are accompanied or involved by lightning discharges and are thought to be com- posed of uncharged and charged components different from each other in terms of velocity, vorticity, heli- city, and appearance (shape and luminosity). Their visible dark portion may correspond to uncharged tor- nadoes, while luminous or bright part may involve charged tornadoes with return strokes. Usually, un- charged tornadoes have been considered to be ascending hot streams of thermohydrodynamic origin. This is the conventional theory of tornadoes, based on hydrodynamics (HD) or thermohydrodynamics (THD) but does not consider electrical effects that are really significant in tornadic thunderstorms..It has been shown, however, that a new electrohydrodynamics (EHD) established and developed over the last more than a decade is applicable to tornadic thunderstorms with lightning. This paper summarizes such an EHD approach and proposes the methods of tornado destruction based on EHD. Space charge and electric field configurations in tornadic thunderstorms are considered to be quadrupole-like, taking into account the cloud-charge images onto the ground. Accordingly, dynamics of particles and EHD flows in an electric quadrupole forming an electric cusp and mirror can straightly apply to those circumstances. When the gas pressure is below the breakdown threshold, there occur helical motion of particles, not only charged but also even uncharged, and/or vortex generation. While for gases whose pressure is beyond the breakdown threshold, the following basic processes succeed one after another. When the grain is uncharged, a dis- charge channel is formed towards each pole as a result of X-type reconnection. For a negatively or posi- tively charged grain, I-type reconnection occurs between the grain and positive or negative poles, respect- ively. For uncharged two grains, O-type reconnection between both grains could be involved in addition to X-type between each pole

The daily interactions at the Gubbio Project can be uplifting, sacred, or tragic - sometimes all of them at the same time. This regular column hopes to capture some of them.
There was a funeral for a parishioner last week. Seventy-five people attended the funeral; ninety more were silent (or sleeping) observers. I love it when different communities use the space at the same time, fulfilling Gubbio's goal of bridging the gap between our brothers and sisters who live on the streets and those who attend church. I heard that the service was healing for some of our guests and eye-opening for some of the funeral attendees unaware that a church could be of service to those without houses in this way.
Andrew has been a volunteer with The Gubbio Project for two months and more recently was hired as another "on call" Hospitality Monitor. He is a great addition to our team, always anticipating what might be needed and doing it before anyone asks.
Here are some of Andrew's thoughts as a newcomer to our project:

[VIDEO: After Easter by Joshua J Masters]
It's the week after Easter. Our holiday clothes are back on their hangers, and our empty tomb memes are falling further down our social media pages. The leftover ham is tucked snuggly into the refrigerator, ready for its role in a much less grand series of lunches. Life will return to normal this week. But should it?
Life for the disciples didn't return to normal after the resurrection. They could not say, "What a lovely Resurrection Day," pretending the significance of Christ's return would merely last a day. They tried to return to a normal life.
