Shelly Bennett came to Red Rocks Park and Amphitheatre for the first time Tuesday morning with plans for a hike.
But those plans soon changed when she saw the hordes of people gathered in the amphitheater's upper south parking lot. Quickly, Bennett and her crew from Wisconsin — Taylor and Sheila Hibl and Kevin Bale — became four of about 2,300 people who participated in the Colorado 9/11 Memorial Stair Climb.
Alongside thousands of others, the group made its way up the winding ramp into Red Rocks, eager to catch a first glimpse of the iconic venue and to participate in the commemorative event. They would be returning later in the evening to see Rascal Flatts perform.
The Colorado 9/11 Memorial Stair Climb is organized yearly by Shawn Duncan of West Metro Fire Rescue and Cody McGinnis of Aurora Fire Rescue. The climb serves as a way for firefighters, other first responders and members of the public to honor and remember the 343 New York firefighters who died 17 years ago. The stair climb benefits the New York City Fire Department's Counseling Services Unit and the programs provided by the National Fallen Firefighters Foundation to support the families of the nation's fallen. According to the event's fundraising website, the climb raised nearly $75,000 this year.
Those participating in the climb made their way up and down the stairs of Red Rocks nine times; each step of their journey meant to mimic the 110 flights climbed by first responders during the Sept. 11 attacks at the World Trade Center in New York City. Many climbers wore an ID badge of a New York firefighter who died on 9/11, and some also wore their firefighting gear or American Flag memorabilia.
Although the event has been going on for 10 years, this year's Memorial Stair Climb featured something new – seven chimes of the Honor Bell. The bell, commissioned by the Honor Bell Foundation, is forged from bronze and includes melted down medals and insignia from Colorado veterans.
The Honor Bell Foundation participates in services for veterans as well as educational programs and military-related events such as the Colorado 9/11 Memorial Stair Climb. The large bronze bell is rung solely by veterans. At Tuesday's event, West Metro firefighter and Air Force veteran Brad Harmon had the honor.
"I'm passionate about supporting those who serve and protect our nation and our neighborhoods," said Michelle Mallin, executive director and co-founder of the organization.
In addition to having family in the service, she's a native New Yorker, so the Memorial Stair Climb is of particular interest.
"I don't think we can do enough to honor those who have given their all to protect us," Mallin said.
West Metro Fire Chief Don Lombardi generally speaks at the event, but he was helping members of Colorado Task Force 1 prepare to deploy to the Carolinas for Hurricane Florence. Instead, West Metro Division Chief Bob Olme shared a few thoughts prior to the group's ascent into Red Rocks.
"What a day," Olme said. "Early on, I think we all viewed this day with a lot of sadness, and I would challenge you today to view it with courage and with hope. Because the people that walked up those stairs and never made it home, (there is) no better example of courage, honor and service."

Because we forget that we are a part of a story much bigger than ourselves. We forget that men and women have DIED to pass down the gospel to us…..DIED so that we could hold the Bible in our hands. We forget that Jesus is worth every bit of our getting punched, kicked, tortured, and killed….much less a little verbal disrespect, some ostracism by the media, and a little conversational awkwardness every now and then.
My aim is to inspire uncomfortable and radical living for Christ today, and to honor and remember those of yesterday who have laid down their lives for Jesus.

It's no use fitting a square peg into a round hole, they say, but that hasn't stopped you from trying to nitpick your lover into submission. You're the sign of aggression and energy. That's usually a good thing.
But in this case your drive has gone awry. Your irresistible force has come up against an immovable object: your stern, sexy, stubborn love. You're convinced you can change your sweetie into just the person you'd like to be with. Can't you see that all your demands are getting you nowhere? Rather than comply with your directives, your lover pulls away. You view this retreat as a challenge, and push harder. And thus a cycle is set up, The more you chase, the further away your lover gets.It's time you cooled your jets a little. Back off. Give your lover a break. Your way is not THE way, and you don't know everything. Maybe if you spent a bit more time trying to understand the way your lover does things, rather than demanding everything be your way, you could channel some of that extra energy into fun and passion rather than draining it all away with anger.

On Page SEO in 7 Steps
This article is about On Page SEO in 7 Steps. You've researched your keywords carefully and have chosen a domain name that includes them. Now it's time to create a website that will rank high in the search engines. You need on page search engine optimization. On page SEO can be broken down into 7 steps.
Optimize Your URLs
A URL should contain your web page's primary keywords, and the closer these keywords are to the domain name, the more impact they'll have on your SEO. Use hyphens to separate words and keep your URLs short and sweet. For a web page with the keyword, "on page SEO," the URL, mydomain.com/on-page-seo, is a good example of a URL to strive for.
Optimize Your Meta Tags
The title tag is the most important factor in on page SEO. It should be under 68 characters and should contain your keywords, preferably in the first few words. The meta description tag is also important because it's the summary of your site that shows up in the search engines' results, and it can drive traffic to your site. Keep your meta descriptions unique for each page on your site, keep them under 148 characters, and always include your main keywords. There's also the meta keywords tag, which has very little importance in SEO, but all you need to do is include about 10 of your main keywords.
Create Unique Content
There's a popular phrase amongst web designers: "Content is king." This phrase is correct. Having unique, informative content is what keeps visitors reading your site and gets them to come back for more. The greater the amount of unique content your site has, the greater the boost your site will get in the rankings.
Have a Decent Keyword Density
Keyword density is the percentage of times your keyword appears in your text, in relation to the total number of words in the text. Many SEO experts believe keyword density no longer has much of an impact on a site's ranking. A good practice is to use your keyword throughout your text naturally. Never have a keyword density over 5% – this may result in a drop in ranking.
Optimize Your Headings
The H1 heading tag is the headline you see at the top of a web page. It's larger than the rest of the text, and it's often bold. All the pages on your site should include H1 headings. These headings should include your main keywords and they should adequately express what the pages are about. In addition to using H1 heading tags, it's also a good practice to use H2 heading tags for your secondary keywords.
Utilize Alt Tags
When you hover your cursor over an image on a web page, and a small box of text pops up, you are viewing the image's alt tag. Search engine spiders can't read pictures, but they can read alt tags, so it's important that you include an alt tag with every image on your site. Make sure that your alt tags describe your images, and try to include your keywords.
Optimize Your Internal Links
The anchor text you write for each link on your site should contain the keyword you wish to rank the linked page for. On the home page, it's important that a link to every major page on your site is present. It's even better if these links are present on every page. This makes it easy for search engine spiders, like Googlebot, to find all the pages on your site. You can place links in the sidebars and footer of your site, and you can also pepper them throughout your content.
In order to improve your site's ranking with SEO techniques like creating backlinks, you must first have a website to rank. And this website must be properly optimized with on page SEO. By following these 7 simple steps, and updating your site frequently, you can have a site that is search engine friendly and ready for any off page SEO techniques you throw at it.

There is just not a woman alive who desires to hear that her boyfriend wants time. The phrase by itself is just not that immediate, but its implied that means is. When a person says he wants time that is typically the 1st stage toward a break up. It's simple to jump into stress mode when the person you adore tells you that he desires his room and home to think. Panicking is not going to get him back again though. There are factors that a woman can do to make certain that when he is accomplished using his time to think that he'll be back again asking her for a second possibility.
The one most crucial matter you can do when your boyfriend wants time is settle for that truth. It's useless and even can be harmful to the partnership to test and convince him to rethink his choice. If you solution him following he states that he wants a break and you notify him that you aren't supportive or even worse however, you test and plead with him to rethink the partnership he'll be additional inclined to end factors for great. Respecting the human being you adore is essential if you hope to have a foreseeable future with them. If he says that he wants some time aside to form by his emotions and ideas, give that to him. Convey to him that you fully grasp and that you can use the time to contemplate in which your head and heart is at far too.
Another essential stage when your boyfriend wants time is to concentration solely on by yourself. Instead of reliving each minute of the partnership and in which factors went wrong, test and enhance the human being you are. Fairly usually when a woman gets engrossed in a partnership she forgets about her personal wants and desires. This is the best time for you to contemplate what is crucial to you, apart from your boyfriend. It could be a thing as uncomplicated as investing additional time with good friends or possibly using up a activity to fulfill others and get in form. Select a thing that you've been placing off and dive into that. Your boyfriend will not only respect that you are providing him what he requested for but he'll be impressed with your drive to be a better human being.

Family Parrots (Psittacidae)
Blue-crowned Racquet-tail (Prioniturus discurus)
Psittacus discurus
Vieillot, 1822,
Mindanao, Philippines.
Recent phylogenetic study indicates that this species is part of a clade which contains also P. verticalis, P. flavicans and P. luconensis#R. Sometimes considered conspecific with P. flavicans (but recent reinforcement of split#R#R). Until recently was considered conspecific with P. mindorensis (which see), and previously with P. platenae, but molecular study#R indicates that those belong in a different clade. Races may represent two distinct species#R; further studies, using additional data and specimens, are required in order to clarify taxonomic status, especially of apparently intermediate forms in Samar and Leyte. Proposed race nesophilus (Catanduanes I) here considered synonym of whiteheadi; suluensis (Sulu Archipelago) included within nominate. Two subspecies currently recognized.

Graph Visualization for Neo4j Schemas Using yFiles
Graph Visualization for Neo4j Schemas Using yFiles
Need a way to effectively visualize your Neo4j data schemas? We take a look at how to do just that making use of yFiles. Read on for details.
Join the DZone community and get the full member experience.Join For Free
I have been working with graph visualizations for almost 20 years now, but only recently have I begun looking into graph databases.
Shortly after I got introduced to Neo4j, I found that when looking at existing dataset examples, I often felt the need to look at and better understand the underlying schema of the data. Although a Neo4j database does not need a schema, most of the time data will adhere to a schema and without one, creating elegant and efficient queries to gain insight into your database becomes rather difficult.
I spoke with other Neo4j users, and they told me that they had come across the same problem. In larger projects, there should be a separate documentation about the database schema, but as it is the case very often with documentation, either it doesn't exist or it is out of sync with reality.
Getting the Schema
You don't need an up-to-date documentation to take a look at the schema. There are existing solutions that can help you here:
The built-in Neo4j Browser will show you a list of all node labels, all relationship types and property keys currently in use in the sidebar. Clicking on each of them, the Neo4j Browser will sample a few random nodes and relationships and render them to the screen. You can then interactively explore the actual graph data and build the schema in your head or using pen and paper.
If you have installed the APOC tools at your server, you can make use of the awesome meta-graph APOC procedure to automate this sampling: The procedure will create results that the Neo4j Browser can actually display as a graph.
Some people may not have the APOC tools installed or cannot install them at their server. Luckily, starting with Neo4j 3.1, there is similar functionality built right into the database. Sending a
call db.schema() query to the database, you will get a response that looks like an ordinary query result with nodes and relationships; however, the entities are purely virtual and do not exist in the database.
For very small instances with a simple schema, this may already be enough for you to get a good understanding of the structure of your database. However, while the current implementation of the graph viewer in the Neo4j Browser is fine for displaying smaller result sets, it does not work very well for non-trivial schemata.
If you start looking more closely at the output of the
db.schema() call, you will see that there are some node labels that seem to be connected to a large number of other labels. In the example above there are labels like
Meetup, and
User which have a very high connectivity.
It is their adjacent relationships that make the diagram almost unusable. Now if you look at the database contents you will quickly see that in reality there is not a single node in the database that is labeled with just one of these labels:
MATCH (n:StackOverflow) WITH labels(n) as labels WHERE length(labels) = 1
RETURN collect(distinct(labels))
This will give you an empty list since there is no combination of labels in the whole database that only consists of the "StackOverflow" label! Instead, the label is used as a "tag" in combination with other labels only.
This Cypher query can be used to find the combinations in use for a certain label in the database:
MATCH (n:StackOverflow) WITH labels(n) as labels RETURN
With this knowledge, in order to better understand the schema, we can actually manually remove those "tagging" nodes from the graph display. We won't lose any relevant schema information since the relationships are still there for the other labels that the tagging label was used in combination with.
Be careful though, because there can be labels that cannot be removed without destroying information. In this case the
User tag appeared in these combinations:
[User, Twitter], [User, StackOverflow], [User, Meetup], [User, GitHub],
[User, Slack]
And if we remove the
User label too, we will remove all
Users and their interactions and relationships from the schema.
Actually, the schema should better show a different structure: It now shows a type of "User" who posts questions on Stack Overflow, tweets about his or her work on Twitter, and meets his or her fellow developers at Meetups. We see a single
User that participates in all of these relationships. However, if we look at the actual data, we will see that only
Twitter Users tweet, and only
Stack Overflow Users post questions and answers on Stack Overflow.
Thus, in reality, in the database, the schema should be drawn with separate types of
Users. One for each "tagging" label combination that they appear in.
At this point, it becomes clear that the current implementation of the graph visualization in the Neo4j Browser does not suffice for rendering more complex database schemata.
Graph Visualization to the Rescue!
"yFiles" is a generic graph visualization, drawing and editing library for programmers that comes with the most complete suite of automatic layout algorithms. It also features extensive customization options, and as such, can be used to create completely new applications that exactly suit one's requirements. Therefore, I was positive that I could easily build an application that allows users to quickly and efficiently browse and understand the schemata of even the most complex Neo4j graph databases.
.run("call db.schema()", {})
const records = result.records;
const graphBuilder = new yfiles.binding.GraphBuilder(graphComponent.graph);
graphBuilder.nodesSource = records[0];
graphBuilder.edgesSource = records[1];
// helper method to convert the neo4j "long" ids, to a simple JavaScript object (string)
function getId(identity) {
return identity.low.toString() + ":" + identity.high.toString();
graphBuilder.nodeIdBinding = node => getId(node.identity);
graphBuilder.sourceNodeBinding = edge => getId(edge.start);
graphBuilder.targetNodeBinding = edge => getId(edge.end);
graphBuilder.nodeLabelBinding = node => node.labels && node.labels.length > 0 ? node.labels[0] : null;
.catch(function(error) {
That was all I had to do to get the basic schema to display in my own application! I just plugged the above code into one of the samples in the getting started tutorials for yFiles for HTML and was immediately able to interactively explore and finally understand my database schema!
Creating a Schema Explorer
Of course, I didn't stop at this point. I was excited to see what one can create when the power of Neo4j and the yFiles libraries is used together in the same application. So, I added an option in the context menu for the user to automatically split node labels into all of their label combinations and update the relationships accordingly.
A Cypher query like the following quickly reveals that for certain label combinations there are a lot fewer relationships, and they suddenly begin to make sense:
MATCH (n:User:StackOverflow)-[r]->(n2) RETURN collect(distinct(type(r))),
collect(distinct(type(r))) labels(n2)
[POSTED] [Content, Question, StackOverflow]
[POSTED] [Content, Answer, StackOverflow]
So, Stack Overflow users in the database do not participate in a meetup and do not create GitHub repositories; they will post answers and questions and the schema should reflect that!
So after reading in the schema, splitting the node labels, reinserting the right relationships, and removing the tagging labels from the schema view, I finally applied some custom styling and one of the automatic layout algorithms and got this much-improved schema:

Megan Clouser – Family Caregiver
58 years old; Married; three grown children, four grandchildren; Caregiver for elderly father who lives in her home; Works part-time at law firm as office administrator; College-educated;
Megan often takes on too much and needs to find a balance. Between her job, home responsibilities (e.g., cooking, laundry, house cleaning, etc.), occasional babysitting of her grandchildren, and caring for her elderly father, she has little time for herself. She loves her father and wants the best for him, and he needs her as an advocate for his healthcare needs – including driving him to his doctor appointments, having discussions with his doctors, managing his medications, and helping him to remain as independent as he can.
Megan is relatively tech savvy, comfortable with an online healthcare portal, social media and online shopping.
"It's tough to see Dad in this condition. His attitude is better than mine most of the time."
"I rely on Dad's doctor portal. It was hard to keep track of meds/appointments, but this helps as long as it's updated quickly enough and contains accurate information."
"I don't understand the instructions they provide – they are often unclear medical mumbo-jumbo. I hate that I have to call the doctor's office to get a question answered, only to be put on hold forever."
"I don't have enough hours in the day to get it all done."
"Why can't the doctors talk to each other? It seems like it's up to me to repeat from one to the other (surgeon, specialist, PCP)."
"Why do I get so many bills for a single visit from the hospital, the doctor, etc.?"
Short-Term Goals
- Reduce stress.
- Get some help at home from a homecare professional.
- Find a healthcare portal with updated, reliable information.
- Get reassurance that there are no gaps in care.
- Understand how to manage all the bills.
- Balance time between caring for my father and my own family and career.
Long-Term Goals
- Have up-to-date information shared among providers more easily.
- Be able to see all of my father's health information in one place.
- Get finances in order to manage my father's care and still fund my retirement.
- Help my father manage his health and enjoy his life.
Typical Problems Faced on the Job
- Too many doctor visits required to get one problem adequately addressed.
- Providers don't talk to each other.
- Lack tools to coordinate care/visits/follow-up.
- Too many bills broken up into many instead of just one.
- Feel like the system is working against me, not for me.
- Not knowing what I don't know/feeling like I'm missing something.
- Lack of transparency.
- I don't really understand insurance and have to assume that the costs are correct.
- Hard to keep track of so many appointments.

1973 Alfa Romeo Montreal
1973 Alfa Romeo Montreal
- Engine: 2593cc V8 cylinder
- Transmission: 5 Speed Manual
- Year: 1973
- Registration: XJB 990L
- Mileage: 34,000
- Exterior Colour: Orange
- Interior colour and material: Black cloth
- This Montreal joined our Black & White Collection in May 2008 when we purchased it from the classic car dealer Bresciacar, in Brescia, Northern Italy, but it was sadly sold in November 2013 as it was not getting the use that it deserves. It was located after a lengthy search to obtain a superb and unabused Montreal in a standard and original condition - sadly these are difficult requirements to achieve on a Montreal.
- According to the Alfa Romeo Museum Archives, this Montreal was manufactured on March 30th 1973 and sold by Alfa Romeo to their dealer in Rimini on May 15th 1973. The original paint colour was orange with the seats trimmed in black Alfatex cloth, just as the car is now.
- The Italian PRA report that we obtained states that the car was sold new in Rimini on June 14th 1973. It was sold after only ten months to a gentleman in Pescara on April 17th 1974, just down the east coast of Italy from Rimini. After only a few months on November 29th 1974 the car swapped Italian coasts and was sold to a gentleman in Rome, on the west coast of Italy. The car was then sold to a person near Brescia on February 16th 1981 and then onto another person near Brescia on February 23rd 1982. The car was then purchased by AutoBarbieri, a car dealer in Isorella, just south of Brescia, on May 27th 1988, who promptly sold it to a lady who lived beside the garage. AutoBarbieri then re-purchased the car on December 5th 2002 and retained it until selling it on March 20th 2006 to a resident of Brescia. The car was then bought by the dealer Bresciacar in Brescia, who we purchased it from on May 14th 2008.
- In April 2006 this Montreal had the honour of being awarded the highly regarded and desirable ASI (Automotoclub Storico Italiano) Certification which only the finest and most correct examples of classic cars and motorcycles in Italy are granted.
- Between April 2006 and October 2007 a total of 17,652 Euros was reportedly spent on an engine re-build, minor mechanical work and a seat re-trim (in the correct Alfatex fabric) by Garage Manenti based in the province of Brescia.
- It is unknown when the car received its high quality re-paint but we expect it was in the early 1990s. The interior carpets appear to be the original ones.
- Road registered in the UK by us in May 2008.
- We undertook a lot of works on the car in December 2009 that included the fitting of an Alfaholics Fast Road suspension handling kit in conjunction with a complete suspension overhaul and bush replacement, the fitting of an Alfaholics stainless steel sports exhaust system (excluding the manifolds), and also the fitting of Ferodo DS2500 brake pads and braided brake hoses.
- In April 2011 we fitted an Alfaholics billet aluminium steering box and rebuilt steering idler.
- In March 2012 we had SPICA pump expert Wes Ingram in Washington, North America, rebuild the SPICA fuel injection pump.
- In October 2013 we had Montreal expert Robert Thompson of High Performance Restoration carry out a thorough engine tune up and check-over to ensure that the car is running superbly.
- The occupants of this fabulous motor car can enjoy the factory fitted air conditioning, a rare and desirable option when the car was new.
- Previously registered in Italy as: RMN96650, PE123093, and BS788262.
- This Montreal is in excellent condition, and is the result of enormous work and expenditure by us with the aim of achieving a V8 engined Bertone classic that drove and handled as fabulously as it looked. That goal was most certainly achieved resulting in this surely being one of the finest driving Monteals in the world.
Events we have exhibited this Alfa Romeo at:
- Cotswold Alfa Day, Broughton Castle, June 29th 2008.
- Goodwood Road Racing Club Annual Vehicle Display, Goodwood House, West Sussex, August 10th 2008.
- Goodwood Revival Classic Car Park, Goodwood, West Sussex, September 21st 2008.
- PistonHeads Show, NEC Birmingham, January 15th to 17th 2010.
- Goodwood Revival Earls Court Motor Show "Grand Touring - Greats" Exhibition, Goodwood, West Sussex, September 17th to 19th 2010.
- Classic Motor Show, NEC Birmingham, November 12th to 14th 2010.
- The Alfa Romeo Montreal was introduced to the world as a concept car in 1967 at the Expo 67 in Montreal, Canada. The concept cars (one of which is held by the Alfa Romeo Museum in Arese) had bodies designed by Marcello Gandini at Bertone and were based on the Alfa Romeo Giulia Sprint GT platform and running gear (including the 1600cc engine).
- In 1970 the production version of the Montreal was shown at the Geneva Motor Show and was very different mechanically to the Expo 67 concept car as it featured a 2593cc version of the 2.0 V8 engine from the spectacularly beautiful Alfa Romeo 33 Stradale racing car. The engine reportedly produced 200 Bhp with its SPICA mechanical fuel injection. This power was delivered to the road via a 5-Speed ZF dog-leg gearbox and a limited-slip differential.
- A total of only 3,925 Montreals were produced between 1970 and when the model ceased production in 1977, of which just 180 were made with right hand drive.

Receipts and disbursements method/
The receipts and disbursements method is used to construct a cash flow forecast. It is derived from actual and estimated accounts receivable and payable. The source information has a relatively short time horizon, so the method's accuracy declines rapidly beyond a few months of forecasting. Within the near term, the results of this method can be quite accurate.

Hello Everyone,
I'm sure many of you have seen my shouts.
I'm looking to purchase these two items.
Templar Sabatons come from an ISNM60, which means it is a 60cap fight. The entry key item can only be purchased once per day for 2000 imperial standing from a NPC in Whitegate. The fight itself is done in the same place has the Gessho high tier battle field.
Many are turned off from trying because it is a 60cap fight, but it is very, very easy.
If you have a pair collecting dust, obtained a pair from the current NNI special event or are willing to get an entry item but just need help winning and are interested in selling the sabatons, please let me know.
Cursed Diechlings -1 are crafted. Smithing is necessary to make the darksteel cuisses. Goldsmithing is necessary for the final result.
Thank you for your time!

NEW YORK (CBS.MW) -- Standard & Poor's cut its outlook on Scholastic Corp. SCHL, -1.37% to "negative" from "stable" due to the children's books publisher's wider fiscal first-quarter loss and lower earnings outlook for fiscal 2005. S&P also affirmed the company's "BBB-" corporate credit rating, which is the lowest "investment grade" rating. "The company has not overcome its dependence on Harry Potter titles in the trade publishing business, which accounted for the bulk of trade profitability in fiscal 2004," said S&P credit analyst Hal Diamond. He noted that the company's direct-to-home business has been lackluster over the past year. The stock was last down 33 cents, or 1 percent, at $31.35.

Search Engine Optimisation
There's no point in having a pretty website to show off your business if no-one can find it. We know how to build websites that are as search engine-friendly as they are people-friendly.
So what is SEO, exactly?
Search Engine Optimisation refers to the techniques employed to boost a website's position in search engine results. Ever since the birth of the web, people have wanted to get their website to the top of page 1 of Google.
In turn, search engines have spent years perfecting their way of ranking websites. And so SEO was born and became a huge industry, full of professionals – and also the occasional cowboy.
Port 80 SEO
Our approach is to focus uniquely on the content of your website to ensure it is as SEO-compliant as possible. This helps search engines gauge what you are offering, and it also makes your content clearer to visitors.
Our keyword analysis strategy asks the question: "What would a potential customer be typing into Google to find a business like this" and ensures your site is built accordingly.
Give Your website a head start
Aside from your website's content, an increasingly important factor that determines a site's rankings is how fast it loads. The websites we make can be hosted on our high-performance VPS server, specially designed for WordPress websites. The sites it hosts are noticeably faster loading – which is good news for your customers too.
Can you get me onto page 1 of Google?
The honest answer is, it depends! The more unique a business is, the easier it is for it to be found. On the other hand, if you run a holiday gite in the Dordogne, you're just one of literally thousands of businesses, so we make no such promise. All we can promise you is that your site will be built in line with the best SEO practises.
To rank highly, it is also important for a website to have lots of visitors, and for there to be lots of other sites that link to it. Building that kind of traffic is part of what's called inbound marketing. If you really need to give your site that extra push, we recommend you find a professional who offers those services. We at Port 80 are web designers, pure and simple.

Meeting/Conference > Arizona Meeting/Conference
2019 APSF Stoelting Conference.
Anesthesia Patient Safety Foundation. September 4–5, 2019; The Camby, Autograph Collection, Phoenix, AZ.
Anesthesia is a high-risk activity that has achieved safety successes. This conference will explore early recognition and rapid intervention of perioperative deterioration to avert failure to rescue. Featured speakers include Dr. Della Lin and Dr. Brad Winters.
Special or Theme Issue
Emerging Concepts in Patient Safety.
Shapiro FE, ed. Int Anesthesiol Clin. 2019;57:1-162.
This publication presents patient safety concepts for anesthesia practice, including decision aids to educate and empower patients about anesthesia choice, environmental hazards, interpersonal communication, team training, and use of technology and simulation as educational tools.

Workplace violence against anesthesiologists: we are not immune to this patient safety threat.
Udoji MA, Ifeanyi-Pillette IC, Miller TR, Lin DM. Int Anesthesiol Clin. 2019;57:123-137.
This survey examined the extent of workplace violence in the setting of anesthesiology practice. About 20% of respondents described experiencing physical violence at work at least once; very few were reported. The authors highlight impacts including increased risk of burnout, burden on health care systems because of decreased retention in practice, and ultimately, less access to care for patients.
Cases & Commentaries
If You Say So: Taking a Syringe at Face Value in the Operating Room
- Web M&M
Audrey Lyndon, PhD, RN, and Stephanie Lim, MD; June 2019
During surgery for a forearm fracture, a woman experienced a drop in heart rate to below 50 beats per minute. As the consultant anesthesiologist had stepped out to care for another patient, the resident asked the technician to draw up atropine for the patient. When the technician returned with an unlabeled syringe without the medication vial, the resident was reluctant to administer the medication, but did so without a double check after the technician insisted it was atropine. Over the next few minutes, the patient's blood pressure spiked to 250/135 mm Hg.
Journal Article > Study
Exposure to incivility hinders clinical performance in a simulated operative crisis.
Katz D, Blasius K, Isaak R, et al. BMJ Qual Saf. 2019;28:750-757.
Disruptive and unprofessional behavior in health care can compromise safety culture. Prior research has shown that male physicians and those working in procedural specialties may be more likely to demonstrate unprofessional behavior. Experiencing such incivility may have important implications on the clinical performance of those impacted. In this multicenter, prospective, randomized controlled trial, researchers subjected anesthesiology residents to a simulated operating room emergency in either a normal or a disrespectful environment; blinded evaluators rated their performance. They found that residents exposed to rude environments scored lower on every performance measure, although there was minimal difference in the self-assessment scores between the two groups. The authors suggest that improving the culture in operating room environments is crucial and advocate for focused education on communication in stressful situations during medical training. A past WebM&M commentary discussed an incident involving a communication failure in a pediatric intensive care unit.
Journal Article > Study
Sharing lessons learned to prevent adverse events in anesthesiology nationwide.
Soncrant C, Neily J, Sum-Ping SJT, et al. J Patient Saf. 2019 May 22; [Epub ahead of print].
The authors describe the results of a survey of anesthesiology chiefs designed to understand their perceptions of the Veterans Health Administration efforts surrounding the lessons learned process for adverse events occurring in anesthesia. Of participants who had been aware of lessons learned, 90% shared them with staff and 75% described changing or reinforcing safety behaviors.
Newspaper/Magazine Article
How one health system overcame resistance to a surgical checklist.
Hilton K, Anderson A. Harv Bus Rev. May 20, 2019.
This commentary describes how one health system worked to combat resistance to change associated with implementation of a checklist initiative. The success of the program was built on empowering team members to drive the process, clinician motivation to provide safe care, and engaging leadership. A PSNet interview with Lucian Leape discussed surgical safety checklists.
Cases & Commentaries
Good Catch in the Operating Room
- Web M&M
John Day and John T. Paige, MD; May 2019
An elderly man with a complicated medical history slipped on a rug at home, fell, and injured his hip. Emergency department evaluation and imaging revealed no head injury and a left intertrochanteric hip fracture. Although he was admitted to the orthopedic surgery service with surgery to fix the fracture initially scheduled for the next day, the operation was delayed by 3 days due to several emergent trauma cases and lack of surgeon availability. He ultimately underwent surgery and was discharged a few days later but was readmitted several weeks later with chest pain and shortness of breath. He was found to have a pulmonary embolism; anticoagulation was initiated. The patient's rehabilitation was delayed, his recovery was prolonged, and he never returned to his baseline functional status.
Journal Article > Review
Medicines safety in anaesthetic practice.
Mackay E, Jennings J, Webber S. BJA Education. 2019;19:151-157.
Human factors affect medication delivery in the operating room. This review highlights the role of the anesthesiologist in safe medication administration and recommends strategies to reduce opportunities for error at each stage of medication administration, such as preoperative time-outs, preparation of medicines with color-coded syringe labels, patient identification prior to medication administration, and review of medications at handovers after administration.
Journal Article > Study
Knowledge retention after simulated crisis: importance of independent practice and simulated mortality.
Burnett G, Goldberg A, DeMaria S Jr, Levine A, Katz D. Br J Anaesth. 2019;123:81-87.
Prior research has shown that including errors in training may result in improved retention of knowledge and skills. In this study, first-year anesthesia residents participated in a simulation involving hyperkalemia management. Half received support from an attending physician while the other half participated in the scenario independently. The groups were further split so that half of those practicing independently and half of those working with an attending experienced simulated mortality of the patient. The residents participated in another hyperkalemia simulation 6 months later without attending assistance. Residents who had practiced independently and experienced simulated mortality in the initial hyperkalemia scenario achieved the lowest mortality rate compared to the other groups during the follow-up simulation activity.

Catastrophic drug errors involving tranexamic acid administered during spinal anaesthesia.
Patel S, Robertson B, McConachie I. Anaesthesia. 2019;74:904-914.
Medication administration mistakes can result in serious patient harm. This review explored human factors that contribute to spinal anesthesia administration errors. The authors documented organizational, supervisory, system, and individual factors that contributed to errors. They recommend strategies to prevent such incidents, including the use of double checks and improved labeling practices.

Impact of the World Health Organization surgical safety checklist on patient safety.
Haugen AS, Sevdalis N, Søfteland E. Anesthesiology. 2019;131:420-425.
Checklists have been widely embedded into care processes, despite questions regarding their effectiveness in improving safety. This review summarizes the evidence on use of the WHO surgical checklist and highlights the need for persistence, long-term commitment, and implementation strategy to prevent complications.

Impact of critical event checklists on anaesthetist performance in simulated operating theatre emergencies.
Siddiqui A, Ng E, Burrows C, McLuckie D, Everett T. Cureus. 2019;11:e4376.
This randomized simulation study examined the use of checklists during simulated pediatric cardiac arrests in the surgical setting. Despite low uptake of the checklists, their availability during the simulations was associated with better performance. The authors recommend use of these checklists to enhance performance in rare critical situations.

Failure to debrief after critical events in anesthesia is associated with failures in communication during the event.
Arriaga AF, Sweeney RE, Clapp JT, et al. Anesthesiology. 2019;130:1039-1048.
Debriefing after a critical event is a strategy drawn from high reliability industries to learn from failures and improve performance. This retrospective study of critical events in inpatient anesthesiology practice found that debriefing occurred in 49% of the incidents. Debriefs were less likely to occur when critical communication breakdowns were involved, and more than half of crisis events included at least one such breakdown. Interviews with care teams revealed that communication breakdowns present in some incidents impeded the subsequent debriefing process. The authors call for more consistent implementation of debriefing as a recommended patient safety process. A previous WebM&M commentary discussed an incident involving miscommunication between a surgeon and an anesthesiologist.

In-situ interprofessional perinatal drills: the impact of a structured debrief on maximizing training while sensing patient safety threats.
Greer JA, Haischer-Rollo G, Delorey D, et al. Cureus. 2019;11:e4096.
This pre–post study examined the effect of team training on an emergency response team's performance in a perinatal emergency simulation. Following the training, performance in the simulation identified more latent safety threats and adherence to a safety checklist increased. The authors suggest that team training can enhance maternal safety.

Use of a public health law framework to improve medication safety by anesthesia providers.
Litman RS. J Patient Saf Risk Manag. 2019 Feb 5; [Epub ahead of print].
This commentary explores how gaps in legal and regulatory structure affect anesthesia medication safety. The author advocates for use of a public health law framework to prevent certain types of perioperative medication errors made by anesthesiologists. Policy approaches that require organizations to provide prefilled syringes and barcoding scanners are suggested to avoid vial- and syringe-related mistakes.

Adverse Event During Intrahospital Transport
- Web M&M
Lina Bergman, RN, MSc, and Wendy Chaboyer, RN, PhD; February 2019
Following surgery under general anesthesia, a boy was extubated and brought to postanesthesia care unit (PACU). Due to the patient's age and length of the surgery, the PACU anesthesiologist ordered continuous pulse-oximetry monitoring for 24 hours. Deemed stable to leave the PACU, the boy was transported to the regular floor. When the nurse went to place the patient on pulse oximetry, she realized he was markedly hypoxic. She administered oxygen by face mask, but he became bradycardic and hypotensive and a code blue was called.

Pro/con debate: color-coded medication labels.
Janik LS, Vender JS Grissinger M, Litman RS. APSF Newsletter. February 2019;33:72-75.
This pair of commentaries reviews the use of color-coded medications as an anesthesia safety strategy. The first article argues for implementing standard color sets to delineate drug class and use to improve medication safety. The dissenting article suggests that color-coded medications may decrease the chance of clinicians reading syringe labels carefully due to overreliance on color representation as a shortcut for reading the label.

Operating room fires.
Jones TS, Black IH, Robinson TN, Jones EL. Anesthesiology. 2019;130:492-501.
Surgical fires, though uncommon, can result in serious harm. This review highlights three components to be managed in the operating room to prevent fires: an oxidizer, an ignition source, and a fuel. The authors provide recommendations to ensure each element is handled safely.

Increasing compliance of safe medication administration in pediatric anesthesia by use of a standardized checklist.
Kanjia MK, Adler AC, Buck D, Varughese AM. Paediatr Anaesth. 2019;29:258-264.
Checklist use can improve adherence to safety processes. This project report describes the use of failure mode and effects analysis to identify process weaknesses in perioperative acetaminophen administration in pediatric anesthesia. Researchers developed a five-step checklist to augment safety of IV acetaminophen administration and focused on staff awareness and engagement, improving communication, enhancing accuracy of medication documentation, and use of a paper checklist to drive compliance.

Top 10 reasons to do the B.Voc. degree from TATA INSTITUTE OF SOCIAL SCIENCES
There are degrees and there are the Bachelor of Vocation or B.Voc. degrees from Tata Institute of Social Sciences.
There are many advantages of doing a TISS degree, but let us list some of them for your convenience.
You get to do a University recognised three-year graduate degree in a subject of your choice. No more learning subjects that you consider 'boring' or 'uninteresting' simply because you need to get a University degree.
The B.Voc. degrees are recognised and promoted by several government departments and intitiatives. Check the list available with us.
Tata Institute of Social Sciences is one of the most famous and respected Deemed Universities in the country. It is one of the top ranking universities in the country according to many media surveys.
The classes will be held in the afternoon and evening. So no more waking up early in the morning to listen to boring lectures.
The degree comes with guranteed internships which are, in fact, part of the curriculum. So, you will officially spend a lot of time actually working with a proper company in a field that you want to be, rather than memorizing paragraphs from a text book.
If you are unsatisfied in any manner or for any other reason you want to leave the course, there are three exit points in the course. After the first year you get a diploma, after the second year you get an advanced diploma and you get the degree after the third year.
No more bickering about attendance issues and exams. At TISS and HMMRA we understand the needs of co-curricular and extra-curricular activities.
The degrees are recognised by the industry. You have a better go at employment (more or less a certain chance) than a normal BA or a BSc or a B.Com. degree.
The courses have been designed and will be taught by professionals. Professionals who have worked in the relevant field not because he or she has a Phd in the subject.
Numerous top companies like Arena Multimedia and The Network have already joined HMMRA as industry partners of the courses. At least 10 more companies are expected to join soon.

The Breast Blog: Today's Photo Shoot
We shoot the final photo for the 2006 Breast of Canada Calendar today. I have eight volunteer models driving from various points outside of Guelph and congregating at 3pm. They are all strangers to me.
We were suppose to do this photo shoot last Saturday. Thankfully the photographer was ill and we postponed for a week. I say thankfully because the dramatic winter weather of last Saturday pretty much shut the city down. Today we have blue skies.
Last year, I received a photo submission from Olivia Brown that I loved the composition of but that had a technical glitch. Olivia is reproducing that shot today with a fresh batch of models. They will be building a topfree pyramid.
In preparation for today's experience, I sent the following email to the models. That's about as hands on as I get, leaving the rest of the experience up to the brave women who offer to participate and the photographer. I'll also mention, all eight of these women carry the BrCa 1 and/or BrCa 2 Gene. Some have had preventative mastectomies even though no breast cancer has been detected. I simply cannot fathom how difficult it would be to make such a life shifting decision, given there are no guarantees that cancer will not appear somewhere else.
Photo shoot Details:You will be asked to sign a model release. This allows me to use the photo in the calendar and for publicity purposes. Please note: I never identify my models to anyone, the press included. If you choose to identify yourself, that is your choice. Some models do, some don't. Your faces will not be shown. That said, I'm a model in the calendar. One person identified me because she specifically was looking for me and she recognized my collar bone! Nothing I can do about that. But it didn't matter to me either.
You will also be asked to briefly write an explanation as to what motivated you to take part in the shoot. Please bring a pen.
Also, I like to list the models names, in alphabetical order, in the credits of the calendar.
When the calendar is published (May 2005) I will host a reception for all the models and give you a copy of the calendar....very hot off the press. I like the models to be among the first to see the finished project. So your contact info on the model release is important.
Attire:no makeup required. Please wear pants that you can bend in. Please do not wear a bra for at least an hour before the shoot. We don't want visible marks on your skin.
BYO water and snacks if you're worried about getting hungry. There's a fabulous bakery/coffee cafe called With The Grain within a block and a half of the centre for a pre/post shoot tank up. Corner of London and Woolwich.
Other than that, rent Calendar Girls. Then prepare to laugh and have a very exciting, significant experience.
End of my instruction

I'm so glad I am staying in today0 comments Posted by Geek Academic at 6:31 AM
From wunderground.com
... Very cold conditions this morning...
Statement as of 4:08 AM EST on January 03, 2008
... Wind Chill Advisory remains in effect until 8 am EST this morning...
A Wind Chill Advisory remains in effect until 8 am EST this morning.
Arctic high pressure will continue to build across southern New England today. The combination of winds around 15 mph and temperatures between zero and 5 above will produce wind chill values as low as 18 degrees below zero early this morning. Temperatures will remain in the single digits all day today with wind chill values remaining below zero.
A Wind Chill Advisory means that very cold air and strong winds will combine to generate bitter cold wind chills. This can result in frostbite and lead to hypothermia if precautions are not
taken. If you must venture outdoors... make sure you wear a hat... gloves... and several layers of clothing. A Wind Chill Advisory is issued when the wind chill index is likely to reach -15 to -24
degrees for at least 3 hours.

Digital Health
This nationally representative probability survey of 14- to 22-year-olds sheds important new light on the relationship between social media use and adolescent depression. The survey reveals that teens and young adults are making extensive use of the internet, social media, and mobile apps to help address their depression and anxiety. In addition, young people suffering from depression or anxiety have diverse responses to social media – for some, it is an important lifeline to support and human connection, while for others it just reinforces negative emotions. Many young people exhibit a high degree of 'agency' about how they use social media - consciously curating their feeds for inspiration and support, or staying off social media entirely during tough times.
June 2015, for Northwestern University
If there is one thing that defines the current generation of teenagers, it is the degree to which they are always "connected"—spending vast amounts of time using social media, surfing the web, watching YouTube videos, Tweeting, and using apps.

Day 622 Information Application
Continuing from the previous post.
What is interesting about the point of information application within myself is that as I investigate my mind it isn't so much that I actually stop the information from existing within me as it is that I self-correct my relationship to the information. What I mean by correcting the information is removing any limiting biases upon the information where as the information is tainted with speculation from within and as a form of self-judgment...specifically resonating with a particular energy charge...which reflects a point of dissonance in relationship to the actual information...because the information is the information...and having a particular feeling or emotion about the information becomes a point of influence as like a weakness in character...where the equality of character can be compromised in moments as a result of having particular reactions in one's day to day living that correlate to the information where there is a particular energetic resonance.
It's interesting because reactions are like terrorist attacks. Sometimes it's only self-inflicting...but other times it causes/triggers a reaction in another...which also is self-inflicting...and what sometimes happens...well many many times happens within our shared reality....is that there is many many chain reactions happening...people being triggered and just kind of acting out how they feel about a particular point...from the starting point of and as their feeling and emotion on the matter...and what is interesting about this is that self-reflection is required in order to change the information application within self. Meaning, that as long as there is a particular energetic resonance in relationship to particular information...there is going to be a controlled outlook and behaviour that will play out...so in order to changed the automated behaviour playout and the information control and possession...one requires to change the starting point in relationship to the information. I call this the point of self-correction. Because the information is always a point of self-reflection so to speak.

Move Along
I'm working on a post--yes, that's right, actually working on one instead of the usual unexpurgated drivel contained herein--but am currently snowed under with various projects and committments which have forced it to the back burner.
That said, I still block out a little time for a quick trip around teh intarweb in the morning and I ran across something over at Linda's Table Tango. Go read it. There's her usual excellent dealer notes, today a bit about Flack, Chan and Vahidi doing battle in chinese poker, but under that are a couple notes about the WPBT gathering and I defy you to tell me what's there doesn't make you pee yourself a little.

A cop would call this "motive." The month after NSA denied Clinton a secure Blackberry, she started using an unsecure one to read her classified messages.
Newly released emails show a 2009 request to issue a secure government smartphone to then-Secretary of State Hillary Clinton was denied by the National Security Agency.
Clinton's desire for a secure Blackberry, like that provided to Obama, is recounted in a series of February 2009 exchanges between high-level officials at the State Department and NSA. Clinton was sworn in as secretary the prior month, and had become enamoured with reading and answering emails on a Blackberry.
"We began examining options for Secretary Clinton with respect to secure 'Blackberry-like' communications," wrote Donald R. Reid, the department's assistant director for security infrastructure. "The current state of the art is not too user friendly, has no infrastructure at State, and is very expensive." Reid added each time they asked NSA what solution they had worked up to provide a mobile device to Obama, "we were politely told to shut up."
Resolving the issue was given such priority as to result in a face-to-face meeting between Clinton chief of staff Cheryl Mills, seven senior State Department staffers with five NSA security experts.
Standard smartphones are not allowed into areas designated as approved for the handling of classified information, such as the block of offices used by senior State Department officials. Mills also asked about waivers provided during the Bush administration to then-Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice for her staff to use Blackberries in their secure offices. But the NSA had phased out such waivers due to security concerns.
The department's NSA liaison expressed concerns about security vulnerabilities inherent with using Blackberry devices for secure communications or in secure areas. However, the specific reasons Clinton's requests were rebuffed are being kept secret by the State Department.
The following month, in March 2009, Clinton began using her private email accounts and her own unsecure Blackberry.
It sure smells like once she was denied the communication she wanted by the NSA, Clinton just went ahead and set up her own (unsecure) system. She will not be denied.

On AJR
Robin Whelan writes on his new book: Christian controversy and identity in late antique North Africa
Whelan: "It is easy to read the many Nicene polemical texts from Vandal Africa as statements of the obvious. They repeat and reframe inherited knowledge about Arius and Arians, rehashing narratives, tropes and rhetorical strategies with which modern scholars of late ancient Christianity are all too familiar. But these texts are not simply repositories of conventional wisdom or anthologies of anti-Arian arguments for theoretical use. They reveal a live contest for ecclesiastical authority in post-imperial Africa. More than that, North African Nicene literature demonstrates what might otherwise have been an interesting thought experiment: what would have happened if you made the (safely 'orthodox') Nicene churchmen of the fifth-century Mediterranean into heretics?"
Book Note: Yonatan Moss, Incorruptible Bodies: Christology, Society, and Authority in Late Antiquity (Oakland: University of California Press, 2016)
McGlothlin: "One of the great strengths of Moss's approach is that he asks the question, "Why this controversy now?" Why did Severus and Julian, who had apparently disagreed amicably over the corruptibility of Christ's pre-resurrection body before imperial persecution set in, end up in such an acrimonious controversy on this same question while suffering in exile? Ultimately, Moss's answer is that both Julian and Severus were trying to find a new foundation for their authority, and both men sought a perfect foundation."
