Do Squares Come from Quadrilles?
This item starts with a 1957 article by Rod La Farge that takes a strong stand: "the assumption that our present day square dance is derived from the formal quadrille is completely false." Instead, he argues, "the square dance is a DIRECT descendent of the 18th Century Cotillion."

NASA's steps to create a "safety-first" culture showed the first tentative signs of bearing fruit last week. But not without raising fresh concerns over how safe the agency can ever become.
In the wake of a damning report after the Columbia accident, the space agency set up the NASA Engineering and Safety Center based in Virginia, dedicated to improving standards. Most of the issues investigated by the centre in its first report, released on 12 May, came from lower-level NASA engineers, in an apparent vindication of the new post-Columbia commitment to listen to the concerns of all NASA staff. Ralph Roe, the centre's head, said that safety queries are coming in at a rate of 200 a year.
The report published the results of investigations into three unmanned programmes as well as into one of the space shuttle's crucial systems, its tail rudder and speed brake - vital for slowing ...

This file picture taken on June 1, 2012 at La Scala theater during a concert in Milan shows Vatican State Secretary Cardinal Tarcisio Bertone (R) looking at Pope Benedict XVI. (AFP PHOTO / POOL / FILES / DANIEL DAL ZENNARO)
VATICAN CITY: Pope Benedict XVI defended his Secretary of State Tarcisio Bertone against "unjust criticism" on Wednesday, after leaked confidential documents revealed growing opposition to the powerful prelate.
"Having noted with regret the unjust criticism raised against his person, I wish to attest once more my personal confidence" in "the revered and dear brother," the pope said in a letter published by the Vatican.
The secret papers have lifted the lid on deep-seated venom among rival figures in the Vatican, and one theory is that the scandal is an attempt to unseat Bertone, who is considered by some to wield too much power.
"I wish to express my deep gratitude for his discreet support and enlightened advice, which I have found particularly helpful over the past few months," Benedict said in his letter.
Bertone, who will be 78 years old in December -- three years older than the common retirement age for cardinals -- has offered several times to resign, but the pope has insisted each time that he stay in his post.
Reports suggest the plot may run even deeper, with disgruntled cardinals orchestrating the leaks because they believe Pope Benedict XVI is weak and they have already begun preparing to get their own man elected as future pope.
Last month, Bertone denounced the leak scandal as a "ferocious, biting and organized" attack on the pope, but said however that Benedict "is not letting himself be scared by these attacks, whatever their nature."
The scandal led in May to the arrest of the pope's personal butler Paolo Gabriele, who was accused of possessing secret documents to the surprise of many within the Vatican, where he was known for papal devotion and loyalty.
The Holy See investigation into the scandal, which has seen dozens of people questioned, is due to wind up later this month.
In June, an anonymous whistleblower told the Italian daily La Repubblica that Gabriele was merely a scapegoat and pointed the finger of blame on Bertone and Georg Gaenswein, one of Benedict's personal secretaries.
"Kick out of the Vatican those who are really responsible for the scandal: Mr. Gaenswein and Cardinal Bertone," the source told the paper.
The documents, splashed in the Italian press and published in a recent book, have shed light on many Vatican secrets, including the Church's tax problems, child sex scandals and negotiations with hardline traditionalist rebels.

Five to four
ALBION, Borough, City, Rangers and United have once again been playing their tournament in which each team was scheduled to play each of the other teams once, two matches being scheduled on each of five successive Saturdays, each of the five teams having one Saturday without a match.
Three points were awarded for a win and one for a draw. After the fourth Saturday the five teams had each gained a different number of points: Albion had gained most, followed in order by Borough, City, Rangers and United; in fact, Albion was celebrating victory in the tournament even though it still had one game to play, because it had already amassed a points total that none of the other sides would be able to equal, let alone beat.
But during the following week one team withdrew from its final match. It was decided that points gained in ...

Should I get my DNP or go PhD in Nursing
0 Currently I only have my MSN in Administration. I am not an advaced practice Nurse and do not want to be an NP. Leadership and Administration is my goal. There are a few Online DNP in Executive Leadership programs that don't require you to be an NP, but most DNP Programs require an NP. I live in Texas and can't afford out of state tuition. I am planning to start the PhD in nursing at UTMB in Galveston. I am not at this point planning on a research job, I enjoy research, but Nursing administration is my plan as of right now. Does anyone have any insight to the DNP vs PhD issues?
About micahbgibbs
From 'San Antonio, TX, US'; Joined Jan '10; Posts: 65; Likes: 5.0Jul 2, '14 by llg GuideI think it is a highly individual situation -- dependent on the details of the person, job market, and schools involved. If a good DNP program with an appropriate track is available to you, that's what I would recommend. But if not, and you don't mind the philosophy/theory/research focus of a PhD program, then that's OK too.
I have a friend who build an MBA into her nursing PhD program. That's a combination that might work for you, too. Or a combo with either nursing doctorate and Master's in Health Administration.
Good luck with whatever you decide.0Jul 3, '14 by PsychiatricNPYou might take a look at University of New Mexico's DNP program. They have developed their DNP program for Nurse Executives and it is completed entirely online. In fact, it is not open to advance practice nurses for admission. When you completed a online program at UNM, I believe that you pay in-state tuition. It might be a good fit for your professional objectives. Here is a link to the program:
Program Overview :: nursing.unm.edu | The University of New Mexico1Jul 3, '14 by juan de la cruz, MSN, RN, NP GuideI would look at your long term goals as well. You said you "only" have an MSN (in Administration). Are you in a leadership role now? I ask this because I've worked in different hospitals and I don't always see a nurse executive with a doctoral degree. Even the CNO in my current workplace (a large academic medical center) has an MSHA but has completed a prestigious fellowship in hospital/nursing service administration from an institution on the East Coast. I've known other nurse executives whose entry into the CNO role was via a fellowship rather than a doctoral degree. The business schools say that doctoral education in the business world is usually designed for those interested in an academic career. Is that what you also want?0Jul 9, '14 by scarykarrey, BSN, RNHave you considered earning an MHA (Master of Health Administration) degree? If you're interested in healthcare administration, you might want to check out this specialty, as it offers training on how to administrate specifically in the healthcare setting, rather than a broader knowledgebase of business offered with something like an MBA.0Jul 22, '14 by DisneyRNMSNAs others have said, it really depends on the goals of the individual. PhD's are theory and research-intensive. Several schools now offer a DNP in leadership and education that bypass the nurse practitioner role. American Sentinel is one that comes to mind. AT Still also offers a doctorate in healthcare leadership which looks interesting. Good luck on your search!0Jul 23, '14 by NerdDocIf you don't want to do research, you really need to take a serious look at a PhD. In my DNP program I've had the opportunity to work with a lot of PhD's and that's what they're all about. The students working toward their PhD are living and breathing research. Once they're done, they've got to write grants to get funded - that's how they get paid and justify their contribution to the university that they work for. I didn't want anything to do with research either, I wanted to be a provider. Now that I'm almost done with my DNP-FNP, I'm finding that while I still want to be a provider, I really want to find a way to make some sort of bigger contribution in terms of primary prevention and community service. I don't want an academic career though... so I'm not sure what my "job" will end up looking like when all is said and done.
In your case, I think you can rule out a few paths:
You don't want to do research - PhD should be last on your list
You don't want to be a provider - FNP, PMHNP, ACNP are off your list
As others have mentioned, what will a DNP add for you? What about an MBA?Last edit by NerdDoc on Jul 23, '140Jul 25, '14 by PsychGuy, BSN, MSN, RN, EMT-B, APRN, NPI think you need to look beyond nursing at this point and examine an additional master's such as the MBA or MHA.

Port seeks private $$ to finish container terminal
The Port of New Orleans plans to ask for private help to complete its planned $580 million Napoleon Avenue Container Terminal expansion.
The port is unlikely to go entirely private for the projects third and final phase but officials don't expect the state to provide the estimated $240 million they still need, spokesman Matt Gresham told New Orleans CityBusiness (http://bit.ly/WwZRDt).
He said future partners could include terminal operators, shipping companies or any manner of private investment group. The final expansion phase is intended to double the port's annual container capacity to 1.6 million 20-foot-equivalent units.
"Hopefully we can get at least a foot in the door this year, including some funding for planning and design. I would consider that a success," Gresham said. "Hopefully the budget situation improves over the next several years, and the state can begin to reinvest in infrastructure."
The final expansion phase is intended to double the port's annual container capacity to 1.6 million 20-foot-equivalent units, or TEUs. The Napoleon Avenue terminal can handle 640,000 TEUs; an intermodal rail yard scheduled for completion next year will add another 200,000.
The port will soon consider proposals from three financial consultants to help assess the terminal's value and refine options.
Gulf and East Coast ports are preparing for the 2015 completion of the Panama Canal expansion project, which is expected to result in an additional 3 million to 5 million additional TEUs transiting the Gulf over the next 15 years, Gresham said. New Orleans will compete with Houston, Mobile, Ala., and Tampa, Fla., for the additional business.

Dr. Moscot helped the Credit Suisse team better understand what CVS is, how it's caused, and most importantly, what they can do to prevent or rectify CVS symptoms such as eyestrain, eye fatigue, dry-irritated eyes, burning eyes, focusing problems, light sensitivity, double vision, blurred vision, and even back pain, neck pain and headaches.
If you find yourself spending countless hours in front of a screen – be it a PDA, TV, or computer monitor - and lets face it, who doesn't - you may be suffering from CVS. Click here to learn more about Computer Vision Syndrome and how an anti-fatigue lens may be able to help.

Q: Two people lose each other while wandering through the aisles of a large supermarket. The height of the shelves precludes aisle-to-aisle visibility. One person wishes to find the other. Should that person stop moving and remain in a single visible site while the other person continues to move through the aisles? Or would an encounter or sighting occur sooner if both were moving through the aisles?
A: The best strategy may be to wait at the exit of the store on the grounds that the other person may eventually conclude that you have gone home and do likewise. The maximum waiting time will then be from the time you lost each other until the store closes.
A strategy of staying still only works if just one person stays still. If you both decide to stay still, then the wait time is either infinite, if you get locked in, or ...

Now that the sad results are in, I wonder why I even bother. Honestly. I'm retreating into my comfortable shell for a while because the world has gonce crazy.Delete
I hope who ever gets the vote they do good for all of you and your country !ReplyDelete
Yep. In Saraland, (Just outside Mobile) Alabama at about 8:30 this morning. It was pretty busy for a country town. I was already voter number 177 on one of the machines. There was another machine. I didn't see the number there.ReplyDelete
Yep! Feeling so thankful for the women who came before me that fought for my right to vote today.ReplyDelete

Yes, my husband and I both voted, the only ones able to vote in this family. It did not rock the way I wanted it to go!ReplyDelete
I voted. We were deeply disappointed by the result but am at peace knowing the God can work everything out for good and He sees the big picture. I have been just resting in Him today and will continue to do that as well as getting prepared in every way I can for whatever might happen in our country.ReplyDelete

Hi, I love your beautiful blog. Thank you so much!ReplyDelete
Yes I voted and I am thrilled with the result. The economy is on the right track, and we have a strong, family-oriented, inclusive leader who loves God, loves this country, and is committed to looking out for the less fortunate among us. The President is a humble man who believes that we are all created in God's image and that God loves everyone regardless of their race, relgion, gender, or orientation.

Jim's shop got the body in fine shape before the black two-stage DuPont ChromaBase paint went on. "You couldn't tell that it was a basket case when it was done," he says. "Everything was worked out of it. You couldn't tell that anything was ever hurt on it." Except for the grille, all of the trim below the '59's beltline, including the bumpers, was de-chromed and painted to match the body.
You'll also notice that this is a hardtop-only car, with no soft top. "The hardtop was a must," says Jim of Laurie's top preference. "He loved the car with the hardtop, and he hated it without it. He didn't even have a convertible top on it." The top well behind the seats, plus the adjacent area where the OE fuel tank was, are now a carpeted storage compartment.
Now that the one-time basket case is an air-conditioned grand touring car, what's it like to drive? Says Jim, "It's fast. The car is light. It puts out about 430 to 450 horsepower, and it weighs about 2,700 or 2,800 pounds wet, so the car is fast. It stops on a dime, and it's a lot of fun."
If you're not scared of the idea of turning a garage full of parts into a Vette Rod or other fun driver, Jim has some sound advice about one thing you should have from the get-go. "Start with a good rolling chassis," he says, noting that step is much easier now than when he started on the '59's build. "When the chassis work was done on this car, there weren't all of the different companies that produce the [modified] chassis. You can buy a rolling chassis now from several different companies that are as good, or even in some cases better, than what we had. They're lighter, and they're stiffer."

Even more bad news out of Japan this evening as yet another explosion has occurred at the Fukushima nuclear power plant.
This is the third explosion to rock the nuclear reactor in the past four days. The blast comes on the heels of two other hydrogen explosions at the plant, the most recent of which occurred on Monday.
The Fukushima nuclear reactor has been on the verge of meltdown ever since Friday's massive earthquake and tsunami devastated the region, knocking out power to the cooling system used to keep nuclear material from melting down.
This third explosion occurred at 6:10 a.m. local time Tuesday morning, according to a spokesperson for the Nuclear Safety Agency.
Tokyo Electric Power Co. says the blast took place near the suppression pool in the reactor's containment vessel. The pool appears to have been damaged in the blast, according to chief government spokesman Yukio Edano.
He added that the measuring devices used in the vicinity didn't yet show a rise in radiation as a result of the damage.

A little more niacin in the diet may go a long way, say nutritionists. This well-known B3 vitamin may help support blood cholesterol levels already in the normal range and healthy heart function.* Although frequently added to breakfast cereals, grain products and other foods, a daily niacin supplement may support overall good health.
Those strongly encouraged to take niacin supplements are heavy drinkers, as alcohol inhibits the absorption of niacin, and vegans and vegetarians – as most B vitamins are obtained from eating fish, red meat and dairy products.
Niacin may also help maintain healthy cognitive function and aid in the absorption of other nutrients. Sufficient levels of niacin may additionally help support digestive and nervous system function.*
