Sketching out our laws: Legislative Council is already at workBy David Taube
VERMONT PRESS BUREAU | November 25,2012The legal staff of the Statehouse already is pushing to develop hundreds of bills for the upcoming session, creating the groundwork for state representatives and senators new laws.
In the 2011-12 biennium, perhaps the smallest capitol legal staff in the country brought forth 1,047 bills, but only 191 became law. For the upcoming session, the Legislative Council is working on more than 200 bills as legislators continue making requests to draft bills.
A staff of around 50 people makes up the office, which is shared between legislators regardless of party.
We have one staff, and its a central staff, said Bill Russell, who headed the Legislative Council from 1972 to 2008 but also spent part of his legal career in Congress. In a state like New York, every committee would have its own staff ... There might be 150 (legislative) members and there may be 1,000 staff.
In some cases, Vermonts legal staff can end up writing the bill for one legislative group and the countering amendment by another group that could gut the bill, said Deputy Secretary of State Brian Leven, who spent 12 years with the Legislative Council, helping draft major legislation like campaign finance reform and redistricting.
State higher-ups said a private attorney would be prohibited from serving two opposing clients due to conflict of interest, but legal staff with the council have a unique exception. Its a position with legislators that requires considerable trust, Leven said.
Ending ones day at a preset time each night could also even affect that bipartisanship, he said, where legislators could be adversely affected by unfinished work.
During the session, people do a lot of evening and weekend work, and if you have kids you go home, have dinner, put them to bed and then start in, said Emily Bergquist, who served as director and chief counsel for three years and put in 14 years as tax counsel.
Although the volume of bills drafted may raise eyebrows, the length of bills can sometimes be a few pages or a mere update of previous bills proposed.
House Speaker Shap Smith said hes always been impressed by how quickly Legislative Council can turn around legal analysis.
When we were trying to understand what the court had done in the Vermont Yankee decision, they were able to break it down in an hour or two ... so we could respond to it, Smith said.
To complicate that, staff many times realize when they try to draft a bill just how many other questions there are.
Its just part of the process, Russell said. Its building a consensus and trying to capture in legal language something thats obtuse.
Once, Leven, the deputy secretary of state, had to assist a committee with an issue over personnel, and he hadnt worked that much with the group. He sat down with the chairman and vice chairman, but the legislators were requesting contradictory information that couldnt be drafted together.
He eventually told them hed have to wait until they unify proposals or else hed have to draft two different texts for the same committee.
When the state restructured school district funding to make it more equitable through Act 60, legislators tried to explain how the legislation should be drafted, frequently using metaphors such as thermostats and ratchets to explain the financing, which didnt hold up on paper, Russell said.
Although the difficulties were no ones fault, Russell said, drafters ended up going back and forth with legislators to refine how exactly legislation could accomplish the task.
You just tried and tried again. If it didnt work, wed re-write it, Russell said. You never know what is an issue when its described in general terms until you sit down to write it.
None of these are in final form, he said of bills prepared before the Legislature convenes each year. Theyre really just a sketch.

Pro-Choice @ The Prairie Chicken
I can't wait to be part of the pro-choice camp at the University of Calgary campus tomorrow.
Today and tomorrow the anti-choice so-called "Campus Pro-Life" club have their "Genocide Awareness Project" displays up in the middle of campus just around the corner from the Macewan Hall Student Centre. They show awful images and falsely link the Holocaust, lynching in the American South, and the Rwandan genocide to abortion.
Women have the right to do whatever they want with a clump of cells growing inside their uterus. That's what the Supreme Court of Canada decided in 1988 and that's the law in this country. The Supreme Court of Canada decided in 1989 that it is the woman's right only to decide what she does with her body.
We must do more to expand access to abortion services for Canadian citizens, not restrict it.
The Pro-Choice Camp is organized by the Women's Studies and Feminist Club, and is a non-confrontational demonstration. We are passing out condoms, directing students to peer support in the Women's Resource Centre, showing that there are pro-choice students on campus, and creating a positive space especially during the busiest time of traffic toward Mac Hall (11-1) to counter the negativity of the GAP demonstrators.
Come by and say hi, get a condom or a hug and show your support for the right to choose!
Metro News: Jeremy Nolais: Pro-lifers put 'army' to work
Calgarians will bear witness to images of aborted fetuses on a weekly basis if a locally based pro-life group sees its boldest campaign to date through.
The Canadian Centre for Bioethical Reform recently launched End the Killing, an advancement of past controversial efforts that have included targeting Calgary high school children with graphic images of unborn fetuses and plastering those same pictures to a truck driven through major commuter areas.
Now, the group hopes by 2020 to grab the attention, at least once a week, of all Calgarians old enough to consider an abortion.
To accomplish this, staff members are preparing a postcard campaign that will target every city mailbox, as well as far more frequent demonstrations in high-traffic areas and in front of schools.
Huffington Post: Laura Basset: Kansas Abortion Clinics Threatened By New State Law
More on the Kansas situation from before the injunction was announced. Thank the Fates that it can't be enforced yet and hopefully will be overturned due to Roe v. Wade.
NPR: Judge Blocks New Kansas Abortion Rules
The law that Republicans passed in Kansas setting new standards for abortion clinics on Tuesday, sent out the packages detailing the changes on Wednesday and were slated to start enforcing it today - with the power to shut down non-complying clinics - was halted by an injunction today. Thank the Fates!
UPDATED: Kansas to Shut Down All BUT ONE Abortion Clinic Friday
It's official. Every abortion provider in the state of Kansas has been denied a license to continue operating as of July 1. As we reported last week, strict new state laws put in place this month threatened to close the remaining three abortion clinics in Kansas. […]
The new law, which takes effect Friday, establishes new standards for abortion providers—standards apparently designed to make compliance difficult. The rules require changes to the size and number of rooms, compel clinics to have additional supplies on hand, and even mandate room temperatures for the facilities. Given that the rules were released less than two weeks before clinics were expected to be in compliance, many providers knew they wouldn't be able to obtain a license to continue operating. The laws, often called "targeted regulation of abortion providers," or TRAP laws, are an increasingly common legislative maneuver to limit access to abortion by rendering it tough, if not impossible, for providers to comply.
The story is still developing, but the prospects for keeping abortion clinics open in Kansas seem grim.
Great job, Kansas! If this new law has the effect that anti-choice legislators intended, then you'll be the first state to outlaw de facto a constitutional right. The tactics anti-choicers are using to undermine reproductive choice reminds me of grandfather clauses and poll taxes in the Jim Crow south. A right is worthless if the state does everything in its power to make it inaccessible to you.
ETA: Update here.

Eyepiece delivers sharp, wide, edge-to-edge clarity and is nitrogen-purged.
Locking tripod mount provides 360° rotation
Aluminum chassis is lightweight, robust, nitrogen-purged and waterproof. Sculpted rubber armor protects from impact.
Standard lenses produce inferior images because the various wavelengths are focused at different points along the optical axis.
Cabela's Euro HD binocular lenses virtually eliminate chromatic aberration by focusing various wavelengths of visible light on a single, common focal point along the optical axis.
Every step of the optical construction chain tries to rob the hunter or shooter of available light entering the riflescope, binocular or spotter. Lenses, prisms, coatings and interior finish all compete for available light. Meopta's proprietary, ion-assisted MeoBrightTM 5501 lens coating, Twilight Optimized Optics (TO2) technology, MeoShieldTM scratch- and abrasion-resistant coatings and premium Schott glass minimize light absorption and maximize light transmission. All this translates into you being able to see clearly earlier in the morning and later into the evening – increasing your effective hunting time.
Unsurpassed image clarity and color reproduction
"When is a $2,200 optic a great buy? When it's a big, durable, stunning spotting scope that competes with other European optics costing twice as much. We struggled with bestowing our value award on an optic priced out of reach of many hunters, but the test team kept returning to the Cabela's performance - it won our resolution test and wowed the team with its tight, precise controls, its hard-wearing aluminum chassis and its comfortable, look-all-day eyebox."

Eurozone: The Untold Economics
AbstractThis paper dwells on the Eurozone woes and addresses the origins of the transition from a fictitious boom to a painful bust by unravelling (i) the supply-side structural imbalances that formed the core-periphery economic divide, and (ii) the necessity of the periphery's sovereign debt to finance imports from the export-led core. Within our macroeconomic setup, we challenge the clich� that countries of the core have funded the sovereign debts of the periphery and demonstrate that the commonly held view that the periphery countries have lived beyond their means (due to wages growing beyond what is justified by productivity gains) is in stark contrast to the trajectories followed by the wage shares. We argue against the tyrannical neoliberal policies of austerianism and we propose the rebooting of central and private banking. We present a fresh vision for the future of the Eurozone that will halt the tearing of the social fabric of its member states.

If there was ever any doubt as to what Mitt Romney thinks about most of the people in this country (and about Barack Obama supporters in particular), it can be put to rest. Romney was caught during what appears to be a fundraising dinner at the Boca Raton home of controversial private equity manager Marc Leder saying unimaginably entitled, out-of-touch, and downright cruel things about the American people.
Romney has never tried to appear warm and fuzzy. He is a business man who made his (vast) living tearing other people down for his own gain. But even for a Master of the Universe like Romney, his off the cuff comments seem callous and breathtakingly unaware of his position.
Essentially, he believes he would have a better shot at being President if he were Mexican. He believes 47 percent of Americans are entitled moochers. And he believes Americans are too dumb to want to listen to "intellectual" arguments. This is the man you want to elect? See below:
Look, Romney doesn't have to be likable. He doesn't have to be a guy you want to get a beer with. George W. Bush was that and look how well that turned out. He does need to be HUMAN, though. And he has failed at that in the most basic way.
The idea that a man making as much as he has made in his life balks at people feeling entitled to, I don't know, FOOD seems so unimaginably out to lunch, it's like a joke about rich people. His clueless cruelty begs comparison to all kinds of entitled, out-of-touch wealthy people throughout history. Maybe we should ask Marie Antoinette how ignoring plight worked out for her. Oh wait ...
More from The Stir: The 47% Responds to Mitt Romney in 15 Quotable Zingers
I also take his comments personally. I am an Obama supporter and I have paid an ungodly sum to the IRS this year. I have never once taken any kind of government assistance. My family votes in the same precinct as Romney for god's sake. We aren't victims. We aren't entitled. And we don't expect government handouts.
We believe that it's the responsibility of those of us who were born into lucky circumstances and who availed ourselves of clean water, paved roads, good fire and police forces to give back. That might mean higher taxes. I would pay them. I am comfortable enough in my life and circumstances to WANT to pay taxes so that others might have chances at education, food, housing, and all the other things our taxes cover.
Moreover, as David Brooks said so eloquently in his column today in The New York Times:
The people who receive the disproportionate share of government spending are not big-government lovers. They are Republicans.
It's easy to dismiss Obama's supporters as whiny, entitled moochers. In fact, that couldn't be more wrong. The Obama supporters I know are all hard workers. Most have master's degrees or higher. Most are paying upwards of $30,000-50,000 in taxes in the past year.
You are wrong Mr. Romney. And because of that, you will lose. You should lose. A president who thinks like Romney is dangerous, indeed.
Do you find Romney's comments offensive?
Image via MotherJonesvideo/YouTube
The only way you could positively change someone like him is to put him in a position where he is struggling to put food on the table and a roof over his head for a significant period of time and then see what he feels about that level of entitlement. Make him work two jobs, 70 hours/week, with no benefits and still barely pay the bills and buy groceries and see what he says. Unfortunately, no matter how much I do or do not support someone's politics, I wouldn't wish this situation on anyone. It's miserable and difficult and very hard to pull out of. It's sad that so much of this country has lost any sense of compassion or empathy.
Also, how is this any more offensive than asshole-Obama's "guns and religion" comment? At least what Romney says is verifiably true. Obama just says whatever he thinks his consituents (anti-religion, pro-death, anti-personal rights) want to hear.

What happened after the Red Queen was banished from Underland?
What made her make all of those wrong decisions?
What was her angle and what is she up to now
The Untold Story Of The Red Queen.
"He tried to kill me! He tried to kill me! Sister please!" I screamed at the top of my lungs. She couldn't be letting this happen. I felt strong hands around my waist and on my arms, pulling me further and further away from home. I looked down at the strong, metal chain that held me to my almost-murderer. I looked up into his left eye, I wished I would see the right eye, but there was a thick black patch covering it. His eye was glaring at me with hatred I had never known. I felt the consequences of my actions bearing down on me. It was those actions that were pulling me away from the place I loved, my home. My sister, I never meant to hurt her; I got caught up in the hype of power. Now I realized I had never wanted power, I had never wanted to rule everything. The only thing I wanted was safety and I had thought I could provide it for myself, when in reality I couldn't. I wanted safety and comfort and love. Why could I, of all people, The Red Queen, The Queen of Hearts, not have that?

In the report, it cites a tweet from Saints backup quarterback Chase Daniel. His tweet said "Wow, as we're boarding buses on the Tarmac @ Atlanta airport, we start getting eggs thrown @ us by airport workers! Guess they do hate us!"
The Saints play the Atlanta Falcons at the Dome on Thursday night.

Great day!

This was so much fun. Our tour guides taught us so much in a fun way. I was bitten head to toe though out the trip in Auz by mosquitoes. When we went for a swim in the special pool, Dean, one of our guides saw the extent of the damage to my body. He then ground up some leaves, mixed it with water and proceeded to let me wash myself in it. The plant mixture makes an antiseptic so that I would not get ill from the bites and it stopped the itching. Next day the bites were nearly gone! We ate freshly cooked crab caught by the group and cooked by our guide and hunter "Link" he also gave us a didgeridoo lesson and interesting facts on his tribe. It was great to be on a tour where you could get down and dirty with the locals. We were allowed to keep the paintings that we did with our art lesson and they now grace our wall. This is a kicked back, must do.

For many sites that have sales, discounts and bargains, many people search the net to locate these. They become frustrated when they click and those codes are already expired that are on the sites that they find.
Blogs have giveaways that show up in search engines making others frustrated the same.
Eventually those people become frustrated in searching. They have issues with trying to find things that are up-to-date. Giveaways have ended, sales are no longer active and these things become irritating to them.
With the new "Countdown Timer" on these sites, there isn't any need for this. The site owner or admin can put the HTML coding into the page at the bottom to where they can see when the discounts or giveaways, codes too, will end. This allows them to know when to put "Ended" in the title for those that are searching. They can also remove those pages.
The "Countdown Timer" is in the form of a widget. Those can also be used for Holidays such as anniversaries, Birthdays or even openings for when a site goes live.
The widget is made in simple steps. In the back panel, you choose the button style, if you'd like to use days or minutes, what title you want it to have along with how long you want it to be live for. There are a few other settings, but those depend on the level of your account.
If you're not familiar with HTML coding, don't worry. They'll create the HTML coding for you to just copy and paste into the page that you're creating.
The different levels of packing depends on your need. The monthly account is for 3 countdown timers and costs $7 monthly. The Gold monthly allows you 10 countdown timers at $17 a month. The Pro account is for $27 per month with unlimited countdown timers.
The site goes live in 2 days... July 8th, 2014. Be sure to set up your account before then. Many already have while they were in Beta mode.
We were allowed access to the site with an account to write this article. All thoughts are our own and no others. No other compensation has been given or is intended. This is in guidelines for the FTC.
Looking for a review of a product or site? Send an email to firstname.lastname@example.com.

When you receive a new meeting request, it appears in the Inbox folder. If you receive a lot of e-mail messages or use rules to move messages to other folders, it can be difficult to find meeting requests that you haven't responded to. That meeting request you were going to get to later can slip by, and you can miss an important meeting.
By using Search Folders, you can create a virtual folder that searches through all Outlook e-mail folders and gives you a comprehensive view of any e-mail message that is a meeting request.
The Search Folder you created appears in the Navigation Pane (Navigation Pane: The column on the left side of the Outlook window that includes panes such as Shortcuts or Mail and the shortcuts or folders within each pane. Click a folder to show the items in the folder.) under Search Folders.
Note This Search Folder looks at all e-mail folders, including Deleted Items. Before you panic because you think you missed a meeting request, examine the Subject line. If you have already responded, the Subject line will begin with Accepted, Declined, or Tentative.
Tip To make a Search Folder appear at the top of the Navigation Pane in the Favorite Folders pane, right-click any Search Folder, and then click Add to Favorites Folders. You can drag Search Folders to arrange them in the order of your preference.

"I do solemnly swear that I will faithfully execute the office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States."Bush's oath is defend the Constitution, to which you owe everything -- including your safety.
If the President has this awful power, whence does he derive it? He can exercise no authority whatever but that which the Constitution of the country gives him. Our system knows no authority beyond or above the law. We may, therefore, dismiss from our minds every thought of the President's having any prerogative, as representative of the people, or as interpreter of the popular will. He is elected by the people to perform those functions, and those only, which the Constitution of his country, and the laws made pursuant to that Constitution, confer. [...]posted by edverb at 11:33 PM on December 17, 2005
If you sanction that doctrine, what is to be the consequence? I do not speak of what is past and gone; but in case of a future war what results will follow from your decision indorsing the Attorney-General's views? They are very obvious. At the instant when the war begins, our whole system of legal government will tumble into ruin, and if we are left in the enjoyment of any privileges at all we will owe it not to the Constitution and laws, but to the mercy or policy of those persons who may then happen to control the organized physical force of the country.
This puts us in a most precarious condition; we must have war often, do what we may to avoid it. The President or the Congress can provoke it, and they can keep it going even after the actual conflict of arms is over. They could make war a chronic condition of the country, and they slavery of the people perpetual. Nay, we are at the mercy of any foreign potentate who may envy us the possession of those liberties which we boast of so much; he can shatter our Constitution without striking a single blow or bringing a gun to bear upon us. A simple declaration of hostilities is more terrible to us than an army with banners. [...]
The Convention when it framed the Constitution, and the people when they adopted it, could have had no thought like that. If they had supposed that it would operate only while perfect peace continued, they certainly would have given us some other rule to go by in time of war; they would not have left us to wander about in a wilderness of anarchy, without a lamp to our feet, or a guide to our path. Another thing proves their actual intent still more strikingly. They required that every man in any kind of public employment, state or national, civil or military, should swear, without reserve or qualification, that he would support the Constitution. Surely our ancestors had too much regard for the moral and religious welfare of their posterity, to impose upon them an oath like that, if they intended and expected it to be broken half the time. [...]
You have heard much, and you will hear more, concerning the natural and inherent right of the government to defend itself without regard to law. This is fallacious. In a despotism the autocrat is unrestricted in the means he may use for the defence of his authority against the opposition of his own subjects or others; and that is what makes him a despot. But in a limited monarchy the prince must confine himself to a legal defence of his government. If he goes beyond that, and commits aggressions on the rights of the people, he breaks the social compact, releases his subjects from all their obligations to him, renders himself liable to be dragged to the block or driven into exile. A violation of law on pretence of saving such a government as ours is not self-preservation, but suicide. [...]
Time has proven the discernment of our ancestors; for even these provisions, expressed in such plain English words, that it would seem the ingenuity of man could not evade them, are now, after the lapse of more than seventy years, sought to be avoided. Those great and good men foresaw that troublous times would arise, when rulers and people would become restive under restraint, and seek by sharp and decisive measures to accomplish ends deemed just and proper; and that the principles of constitutional liberty would be in peril, unless established by irrepealable law. The history of the world had taught them that what was done in the past might be attempted in the future. The Constitution of the United States is a law for rulers and people, equally in war and in peace, and covers with the shield of its protection all classes of men, at all times, and under all circumstances. No doctrine, involving more pernicious consequences, was ever invented by the wit of man than that any of its provisions can be suspended during any of the great exigencies of government. Such a doctrine leads directly to anarchy or despotism, but the theory of necessity on which it is based is false; for the government, within the Constitution, has all the powers granted to it, which are necessary to preserve its existence; as has been happily proved by the result of the great effort to throw off its just authority.

Summary: Yale University is again on the brink of scandal, as star quarterback Patrick Witt's announcement in November that he would play in the Yale-Harvard game and forfeit his chance to interview for the Rhodes is coming under new scrutiny. According to the New York Times, he may have known at that point that his candidacy had been suspended because the Rhodes Trust had learned of sexual assault allegations against him.
Before I proceed: I realize there are a number of "mays" and "seems" in the paragraph above. Yes, Pat Witt is innocent until proven guilty; in reality, his innocence with regard to the allegations is not in question, because the process by which the student filed her complaint does not precipitate a formal investigation by the university or by law enforcement.
NEVERTHELESS, this story is still worthy of consideration. This is not a case of a random college student unfairly thrust into the spotlight due to unproven sexual assault allegations. Patrick Witt willingly exploited the media attention he received for making his "heroic" choice to serve Yale Football instead of his academic career. If it turns out that both he and the university were complicit in hiding (note: I don't mean lying, I mean obscuring) the real reason for his choice to participate in the game, then that is something the public deserves to know. Furthermore, Yale is unwilling to report whether its endorsement of Witt for the Rhodes came before or after the allegations were made against him; this is also important, especially for a university long accused of dealing inadequately with problems relating to sexual assault. And finally, if this piece by a Yale senior is to be trusted, it appears the Yale Daily News knew about this story for months, and chose not to report it.
All of which is to say that although I do not wish for Witt's or Yale's names to be needlessly sullied, they to some extent must be cleared. Witt received highly favorable press in outlets ranging from ESPN and Sports Illustrated to the Washington Post and the New York Times. Yale has had continuing problems with sexual assault that I'm sure it would love to sweep under the rug. And student journalists snuffing out a story? If they have good reasons, let's hear them.
If you came here looking for vitriol, you're in the right place!
To wit: I suspect, quite strongly and for a bunch of reasons, that in yesterday's New York Times article about Witt, the word "sexual" was left out of the headline and the article itself was unusually constructed on purpose.
1. According to the paper, the guy's Rhodes eligibility was revoked because he was accused of sexual assault, and yet that's not worthy of inclusion in the headline? Come on. The Times, like every other news organization in the world, knows that SEO thrives on words like "sexual" in the headline. You'd have to be crazy to think that the accusation of sexual assault was not the overriding point of this article—the very reason for it's existence. It's as if they felt obligated to publish the story, but inclined to disguise it as much as possible.
2. The assault allegations themselves are buried halfway into the article! Are you kidding? They make the point of mentioning that it was not a "formal complaint" (an absolutely absurd distinction that Yale should be ashamed of) in the third paragraph but don't mention that the girl went to the university's sexual harrassment center and reported the assault until the NINETEENTH FUCKING PARAGRAPH? How many people do you think actually read to the nineteenth paragraph? VERY FEW! Oh, and the Yale administration "very strongly believes in the confidentiality policies [they] have in place?" I BET THEY DO! Gee, wouldn't it be awkward if Yale was again in the news because of sexual assault?
Now here's the question: how does something like this happen? Is it just one-off bad reporting and writing? The usual news editor was out sick? Because this is highly suspect. Wouldn't it be funny if someone in the Yale administration had the phone number for someone on the masthead at the Times? Does that seem outside the realm of possibility? Any chance that there was a little late-night phone call, a little "Do me a solid, brah" that might have gone down? Any chance there are some people at the Times who have some allegiance to Yale?
What's that? The Executive Editor at the Times, the one who took over in September, she was a professor? Where'd she teach? Oh, really? No way!
She taught there?

Figure 7 is an attrition diagram that depicts the status of documents that Kinetic Concepts Inc. submitted for possible inclusion in the report.The diagram begins with a box outlining the total submission of 593 documents. Several boxes ensue which are connected by arrows going from top to bottom which follow the submissions as they are being screened for possible inclusion in the report.In the first frame, we compare KCI's submission to submissions by other interested stakeholders and remove any duplicates. KCI had zero duplicate submissions.An arrow leads from the 593 Unique Submissions to the Initial Screening Phase where documents may be excluded, used in our Background Section or passed to the next level. In this instance, 178 documents were identified for exclusion. 143 were case reports, abstracts, or poster presentations; 1 was product information; 2 were personal communications; and 32 were other documents not relevant to the report.One document was identified for inclusion in our Background Section.The path then follows the 414 full articles remaining. During this phase of screening we do a more extensive screening which is again based on our pre-determined inclusion/exclusion criteria. Go to our Methods Section for additional information on the criteria.272 articles were excluded during this evaluation phase. 31 were animal studies; four were cost analyses; 9 were duplicate studies; 30 included fewer than five patients; 13 were guidelines; five were homemade devices; 3 were in vitro studies; 141 were narrative reviews; nine did not include relevant outcomes; four were not clinical studies; five did not include a NPWT device; one was not a NPWT study; and seventeen were excluded for Other Reasons which may include "inclusion of healthy subjects", "lack of reporting wound healing outcomes" or "patients treated with dual therapies."Of the 142 full articles remaining for possible inclusion in the report; 117 were already identified in our literature searches. Of the 25 studies that ultimately met the inclusion criteria but were not identified in the literature searches; two studies were included in Key Question 1, 22 studies were relevant to Key Question 3 and one was included as a systematic review of NPWT.

Students team up to train, aid needy
Bridging the Gaps lets health science students learn from each other and help the community
Twenty-four health sciences students recently capped their inner-city summer community health internships by presenting their experiences and findings at the Bridging the Gaps annual symposium in Philadelphia.
Bridging the Gaps is a nationally recognized program administered jointly by seven academic health centers in Pennsylvania. The program is designed to provide health-related service while training community-responsive health and social service professionals.
The students, who hailed from the School of Pharmacy, the School of Medicine and the occupational therapy department in the College of Health Professions, were paired off in multidisciplinary teams to better replicate real-life working scenarios and were assigned to one of 12 community sites. Assignments were 40 hours a week for seven weeks.
Following are snapshots of their experiences:
Medical student Suja Sabastin and occupational therapy student Sara Burton worked with preschoolers in the Early Learning Center at the Community Women's Education Project in the Kensington section of North Philadelphia.
"Through this experience, I have been made aware of an invaluable potential collaborator in care management," Sabastin said. "My partner was a student of occupational therapy and kind and patient enough to elaborate on the scope of this discipline. I am thoroughly impressed at the holistic approach that this healing form takes and feel that it would be a very useful component of care for many of my future patients."
Medical student Amy DiPlacido and pharmacy student Maitri Shah taught children at the Philadelphia Parent Child Center.
"Our goal was to teach the children about being healthy so that they would have the knowledge at a young age to develop good habits that will benefit them for the rest of their lives," Shah said.
For a lesson on heart health, "we played hokey-pokey and after all that jumping around, we let them listen to their hearts with a stethoscope," Shah said. "Some of them were very surprised to hear their hearts beat so fast, and wanted to listen to it over and over again."
Occupational therapy students Juliet Haberbusch and Kate Gallagher worked with pharmacy student Amanda Stolzfus to plan and create healthy activities for the elderly at the Lutheran Settlement Senior Center in Philadelphia. Gallagher explained how the experience helped her understand the perspectives of those in other healthcare professions.
"Having a pharmacy student there working alongside me was very helpful because most of the seniors had many questions about their pills and the side effects they were experiencing," she said. "I feel that working together to help the person get the information he or she needs is what community healthcare delivery should be all about."
Occupational therapy student Samantha Prince and medical student Stephanie Pouch interned at Luther House, a homeless shelter in West Philadelphia. After struggling to implement a health discussion group for the adults, Pouch had an idea.
"I decided to take these issues [heart disease, diabetes, HIV/AIDS, hepatitis] 'out to the stoop,' and it was through this action that I felt I was finally able to make a tremendous breakthrough," she said. She also reversed the roles of educator and pupil, and asked residents for their input on improving health education.
At the Journey Home Community Enrichment Center in North Philadelphia, medical student Stephanie Tessing and occupational therapy student Sonali Patankar were charged with planning and running healthy, fun activities for children.
"We wanted to open their eyes to a world larger than their impoverished reality in North Philadelphia and give them an opportunity to forget the violence and sadness around them so that for a moment they could just be kids," Tessing said.
Patankar said, "I learned I could help people before I become a certified occupational therapist. I also learned people in need do not necessarily have the means to seek assistance."
Other Bridging the Gaps Temple teams included:
Medical student Robyn Schultz and pharmacy student Gwen Meehan, who interned at the Drueding Center/Project Rainbow in North Philadelphia, a transitional housing program for women and children.
Occupational therapy student Tasha Sexton and medical student Naomi Schwarz, who were responsible for planning healthy activities for children in the summer camp at Temple Health Connection.
Pharmacy student Jamie Stokes and occupational therapy student Olusayo Olayinka, who worked together on creating programs about health and the environment at Temple Health Connection.
Medical student Aseem Bhandari and pharmacy student Laura Gilbert, who worked with seniors at Gray Manor, an assisted-living facility.
Occupational therapy student Maria Kanakis and pharmacy student Jennifer Du, who interned at the Tioga Senior Center in North Philadelphia.
Medical student Daria Chacon and occupational therapy student Sara Ulmer, who led a project on water pollution with teens at Congreso de Latinos Unidos, a social service agency in North Philadelphia.
Occupational therapy student Kate Wien, who teamed with a student from the University of the Sciences in Philadelphia to work at West Poplar Apartments, a housing complex in North Philadelphia.
Bridging the Gaps is supported by a combination of public, private and institutional funding. The program works with more than 100 community-based organizations in Philadelphia, Pittsburgh and Erie, as well as in a newly developed program in Delaware. In addition to the Community Health Internship, the Philadelphia Bridging the Gaps program also offers a Seminar Series and a Clinical Program.
Students who are interested in Bridging the Gaps can contact Norm Willett, Temple's program director, at 215-707-4905.

Scout Willis, the 20-year-old daughter of actors Bruce Willis and Demi Moore, has been arrested in New York City for underage drinking and possession of a fake ID. She was charged with one misdemeanor and a violation, the NYPD tells Hollywood.com.
The NYPD informs us that the event took place on Monday at 6:50 PM ET in Union Square. Willis had an open container and presented cops with a fake ID. "She got arrested for criminal impersonation because she showed a fake ID [to an officer] and open container," a NYPD spokesperson tells us. "The fake ID is the misdemeanor charge. [The open container] was a violation."
Willis did not spend the night in jail, but she will be required to meet with a judge. "She was taken to the precinct, processed and issued a desk appearance ticket," explains the spokesperson. "She didn't have to go through central booking. Desk appearance ticket means that you get processed, but you get a future court date. So, instead of going to see the judge that night and have to go through the system, she has some date in the future that she has to go and see the judge."
