On the one hand, you have the Olympics opening ceremony, in which NHS nurses are beaming angels of mercy who think it's an absolute lark when the patients bounce on the beds.
On the other hand, you have the NHS, where an expectant mother is quite likely to meet Jill, heading up triage on a busy maternity ward and in no mood to indulge what she sees as self-indulgence: "I know she's in pain," Jill said in weary tones to someone pleading for leeway on the phone, "of that there's no doubt. But she needs to have more pain before she's properly in labour." I don't know who was on the other end of the phone, but I think "she" was Lindsay, who'd turned up wanting a nice quiet maternity suite that Jill wasn't yet inclined to give her. And the gap between stadium health-care worker and this stern, real-world equivalent wasn't as great as it might first appear, I think. It wasn't that Jill didn't care. It was just that she was very experienced and knew she might need the space for a really urgent case.
The Midwives couldn't more conspicuously be an "us too" commission if they'd called it "One Born Every Two Minutes". The fact that Channel 4's series about midwifery has been a steady ratings success obviously hasn't escaped attention elsewhere. But whereas that's filmed with multiple fixed cameras, BBC2's documentary is a more conventional affair and concentrates on the deliverers not the delivered. I might as well confess now that the success of these things is a mystery to me, consisting as they do of a virtually unvarying sequence of women in distress and men looking miserable, until suddenly a tiny, gore-splashed Winston Churchill appears and all is joy and tears. In my own experience, the delivery room was at once the most terrifying and most tedious place I've ever been obliged to spend time and I have no wish to relive the experience by proxy. But I quite understand I may not be representative here.
This first episode did offer a slightly more melancholy take on the experience, with at least two couples who'd lost babies before and were therefore even more on edge about their coming births than you might normally be. And in two cases, there were complications, so that the parents had to endure that most terrifying noise, the sound of doctors conferring under their breath. That, I guess, is the durable attraction of such programmes: the vertiginous contrasts between just another day at work for the midwives and a day that people will remember for the rest of their lives, for good reasons and bad.
In Networks of Power with Sir Christopher Meyer, the former ambassador visited Rome, where he promised to "grapple with the dark machiavellian heart of politics". The thing about dark machiavellian hearts, of course, is that they never let mere television presenters even get within touching distance, so instead Meyer schmoozed with some of the city's power-brokers and came to no very revealing conclusion, apart from the fact that quite a lot of what goes on in that city goes on under the table. I hope he was a bit more forensic and a bit less diplomatic when he was working for Her Majesty.
The head of the Knights of Malta, a chuckling self-satisfied fellow in a quilted jacket, denied that the organisation was wealthy: "There's enough to put bread on the table," he said modestly, without Meyer calling him out on this ludicrous understatement. Then again, he'd only got the interview through the old girl network, after an old schoolfriend of his wife had put a word in for him, so there was a sense that he was as much poacher as gamekeeper here. You'd also have to hope he was less reliant on cliché when filing dispatches back to Whitehall, just for his readers' sake.

People who wash whole chickens before cooking them are increasing the risk of food poisoning for themselves and their households, a consumer watchdog warns today.
An estimated three-quarters of consumers who buy whole chickens wash them, potentially spreading bacteria on to surrounding surfaces, research by Which? has revealed.
Recent figures from the Food Standards Agency (FSA) suggest that 65 per cent of raw shop-bought chicken is contaminated with campylobacter, the most common identified cause of food poisoning in the UK.Reuse content

Systemic Racism by Joe R. Feagin
Book DescriptionIn this book, Feagin develops a theory of systemic racism to interpret the highly racialized character and development of this society. Exploring the distinctive social worlds that have been created by racial oppression over nearly four centuries and what this has meant for the people of the United States, focusing his analysis on white-on-black oppression. Drawing on the commentaries of black and white Americans in three historical eras; the slavery era, the legal segregation era, and then those of white Americans. Feagin examines how major institutions have been thoroughly pervaded by racial stereotypes, ideas, images, emotions, and practices. He theorizes that this system of racial oppression was not an accident of history, but was created intentionally by white Americans. While significant changes have occurred in this racist system over the centuries, key and fundamentally elements have been reproduced over nearly four centuries, and US institutions today imbed the racialized hierarchy created in the 17th century. Today, as in the past, racial oppression is not just a surface-level feature of society, but rather it pervades, permeates, and interconnects all major social groups, networks, and institutions across society.

In brief
If you like being scared out of your mind by a book, this one won't let you down.
This was so creepy! So, so, so creepy. Rory is being stalked by a serial killer, and even when her family enters the witness protection program and moves to a different town, it seems like he's followed her. And it is terrifying!
Besides all the obvious suspenseful creepiness that goes along with being stalked by a serial killer, there is just something…weird about the town Rory's family moves to. I couldn't quite put my finger on it, but everyone she meets seems to be hiding something, and they're all just a little off.
Clearly, I had to read and read the whole book as fast as I could and, let me tell you, my heart was in my throat the entire time. I'll definitely be reading the second book when it comes out.
I work in Youth Services, and I want to read all the books! My favorites are literary fiction, spooky or suspenseful books, narrative nonfiction and biographies and memoirs. I also love to hike and camp, hang out with my fuzzy dog, play music and pretend I'm actually going to complete a crafty project.

U.S. based think tank Center for American Progress recently released a report evaluating the correlation between education spending and student performance in U.S. schools.
The report, "Return on Educational Investment," used data from over 9,000 school districts across the country to assess productivity and efficiency. Data comparing student math and reading test results were compared to district spending.
According to the center's CEO and president John Podesta, the results are "striking." Education Week reports that the study concluded that there are gaping productivity gaps between districts and there is little proof that higher spending will equal greater student performance.
More than a million students across the country attend schools in districts labeled "highly inefficient."
The goals of the report were focused on evaluation and policy recommendations for lawmakers and school administrators.
Researchers wrote,
"Our aims for this project, then, are threefold. First, we hope to kick-start a national conversation about educational productivity. Second, we want to identify districts that generate higher-than-average achievement per dollar spent, demonstrate how productivity varies widely within states, and encourage efforts to study highly productive districts. Third -- and most important -- we want to encourage states and districts to embrace approaches that make it easier to create and sustain educational efficiencies.
According to the study, U.S. expenditure per student, adjusted for inflation, has nearly tripled over the past four decades. Despite increased funding, overall student performance and achievement has remained the same. As the U.S. struggles to compete with increasing global education performance competition, efficiency in spending is a rising concern.
Cost-effective education policies, which take into consideration student performance while striving for more efficient spending, are a growing trend in education reform. Adjusting for increasing budget cuts in all levels, school administrators are considering new options to boost student performance.
In the face of budget pressures, more schools are increasing class size, making parents and administrators nervous about how larger class sizes will effect student performance.
Former D.C. Schools Chancellor Michelle Rhee believes increasing class sizes is not the issue. Determining teacher quality is the key, she says. Quality teachers can successfully handle bigger classes.
NPR reports,
"The way that I think would make sense is to identify the most highly effective teachers in a particular district, and think about assigning a few more students to each of their classrooms," Rhee says.
Not everyone agrees that effective teaching is enough to counter the effects of bigger class sizes.
According to NPR,
Randi Weingarten, head of the American Federation of Teachers, says that "if somebody says they want to raise class size, they're doing it because they want to cut the budget, not because it's actually going to help children." Many teachers say its common sense: larger classes mean students get less one-one-one attention, and the teacher has more work. And Weingarten says, plenty of parents agree.
While the report finds little connection between spending and performance in most districts, it acknowledges socioeconomic disparities. Poor students are 12 percent more likely to be in school in the least-productive and lowest-spending districts and minorities students are twice as likely to attend inefficient schools.
The report says,
To be sure, our nation's system of financing schools is unfair. Low-income and minority students are far more likely to attend schools that don't receive their fair share of federal, state, and local dollars.
To apply the lessons from the report, Podesta believes efficiency must be combined with fairness. Proper evaluation of spending and alternative solutions, such as increasing class sizes and teacher quality, should be considered.
To increase U.S. schools return on educational investments, the report states "transforming our schools will demand both real resources and real reform."
See how your district ranks in education productive on the report's interactive map.

"Crunch POWERX incorporates full Class A/B technology in stereo and four channel amplifiers along with Class D in the mono. Class A/B sounds better, but the PC boards require a bit more space that in other circuit topologies. With Crunch POWERX we have trimmed away some of the more esoteric features to deliver a great amplifier that sound like you would expect Crunch to sound. The POWERX line also includes Crunch technology like QTD (Quick Thermal Dispersion) Technology which puts more aluminum on the heatsink than a normal amplifier. QTD assures the amplifiers make huge power while running very cool with nearly undetectable musical distortions. "

Obituary for Angelo Theos
On June 4, 2013 Angelo Thomas Theos left the quiet little town of Meeker, Colorado to be with God. Angelo was born in Craig, Colorado on January 14, 2006 to Molly (Turner), Thomas (Willy) Theos. They brought Angelo home to an excited big brother Sheridan.
From the very beginning Angelo was active and outgoing in all he did. The love and care he received from his family, particularly his parents, created the genuine boy that everyone loved.
Angelo enjoyed all of life's adventures. Among his favorites were camping, dirt biking, boating, going to the sheep, shooting squirrels, jumping off cliffs, science experiments such as launching hand built rockets and blowing things up.
Having two teachers as parents Angelo was afforded the luxury of explanation satisfying his ever curious mind. He was determined to learn the Why's, What's and How's of this world, leaving few questions unasked. Angelo's creativity had no obstacles, his parents gave him the time and attention that was necessary to explore.
Angelo never spent a day without family in his life; he had the gift of showing affection like only Angelo could. For him there was never enough time spent watching Bonanza eating his yogurt with Yiaya, teasing back and forth with his Papou, building Lego's with Gammie, shooting carp with a bow and arrow alongside Papa, or just playing hard with his cousins. He made every moment special.
Angelo never missed an opportunity for a practical joke. Whether it be the famous electric handshake or the fake poop that would get the dog in trouble every time. His keen ability to barter, frequently gave him the upper hand in toys and finances.
Although the gift of life was cut too short, Angelo lived with kindness, integrity and above all else honesty. His kind nature was apparent to his teacher when he received a caring award at school. The promise bond and love that he and his dad shared and the devoted love between him and his mom, can never be broken or forgotten. His amazing ability to give love freely and genuinely was witnessed by all who met him.
Angelo is survived by his parents Thomas (Willy) Theos, Molly (Turner) Theos, his grandparents Bill (Papa) & Ann (Gammie) Turner, Angelo (Papou) & Karin (Yiaya) Theos. Brother Sheridan Harvey. Several aunts and uncles, Kai Turner, Keenen Turner, Coley (Kellie) Turner, Hallie (Kurt) Blunt, Katrina (Shawn) Springer, Anthony (Dani) Theos, & numerous cousins, friends and families. In lieu of flowers donations may be made to the Angelo Theos Fund at The First National Bank of the Rockies.
Funeral services were held at 11:00 a.m. Monday, June 10, 2013, at The Meeker Methodist Church with
Very Rev. Makarios Mannos and Johnny Arrington officiating.
Interment followed in Highland Cemetery.

How To: Framing Mirrors with Crown Molding
A bad, boxy room gets new life with cool new architectural details.
Tools and Materials:
laser level
pneumatic nail gun
table saw or chop saw
measuring tape
five 20"x20" polished mirrors
crown molding
wood glue
glazing points
- Lay out mirrors on a flat surface where they will not be damaged. Measure dimensions around mirrors to determine how much molding you will need.
- Using the chop saw, cut molding to fit around the mirrors like a picture frame. With the table saw, cut a groove on the back of the frame for the mirror to sit in. The grooves should be the same depth as the thickness of the mirror.
- Nail and glue the frame of the mirror together. Once this has dried, attach the mirror to the frame with the glazing points.
- Determine where the mirrors will be hung along the wall and measure, making sure they are evenly spaced and level. Use a nail gun to secure the mirrors to the wall.

H.B. residents want help on halfway house problems
HUNTINGTON BEACH Clouds of second-hand smoke, loud conversations at late hours and drug paraphernalia found in a resident's backyard are among some of the problems those who live near Yale Circle say they have weathered from two halfway homes.
Residents say a drug detox facility and a sober living home in their neighborhood have caused issues for more than a year and they want city officials to help them appeal to the state to address the problem.
However city officials say because the state oversees these types of facilities, they have no jurisdiction.
More than a dozen residents who live near West Coast Detox on Yale Circle attended Monday's City Council meeting to express concerns they've been having about the halfway houses. Residents also said a sober living home in the same neighborhood also been an issue.
"We didn't sign up for this," said resident David Rooks, who bought his home before the facilities opened. "It's not something we want to come home to."
Representatives from the detox home were not at the meeting and did not immediately return a request for comment Tuesday.
Residents said they have come home to patients passed out in front of the homes, people loitering in the neighborhood and a stream of new people every 10 days or so.
Rooks said he and his wife have also found drug paraphernalia twice on their property. In one instance, they filed a police report and were told the burned metal piece had residual heroin on it, Rooks said.
"It's not normal to have drug paraphernalia in your backyard," he said.
Resident Corrie Benson said she worries for the safety of local children because the facility faces the kindergarten playground of Schroeder Elementary School.
"I hope that you can help us fight," she told the council. "I hope that you will fight for the safety of our children and our schools."
Rooks said they held a community meeting where they confronted the executive director of the property with their concerns, but Rooks said he still fears nothing will be done.
"He's got the right motives," Rooks said. "He's just narrow-minded in the fact that he doesn't live here. If it's not good enough for his neighborhood it shouldn't be something that's dumped on us."
Scott Hess, the city's director of planning and building, said the homes are outside the scope of the city's influence. These homes are permitted in residential areas, but the city does not keep tabs on how many are operating because all licenses are issued by the state.
Residents who live near these facilities say they want City Council members to advocate on their behalf. Some have been trying to address the issue for more than a year.
Councilman Joe Carchio told the residents that he doesn't understand how problems such as the ones they described were happening in their neighborhood.
"Let us reopen this thing," he said. "There's got to be an answer somewhere. Let's see if we can find that for you."

This review is from: PLANTRONICS Xbox 360 headset (premium under-ear style)
Pros: cheap, lightweight, small, decent sound, comfortable, still working just like new more than a year later
Cons: audio quality could be better, but it's good enough considering the price. Feels kind of flimsy but i haven't had any problems with durability.
Other Thoughts: it might be a little uncomfortable at first, but once you get used to it you forget it's even there. I played for 8+ hours the other day with some friends and even after all that time it still felt comfortable. I haven't had any problem with other people not being able to hear me, and no major issues with it staying in place, it will shift a little if you shake your head but thats expected, and even then it's never moved enough that the mic stops picking up my voice. I would definitely recommend this headset over the stock headset that comes with the console.
I've noticed that your audio quality can change between controllers, i used a cheap off brand wired control when i couldn't find batteries for my wireless and the voice quality sucked. As a friend put it I "sounded like Sean Connery" when I talked, and his voice sounded worse as well, but that was an issue with the controller not the headset.

The loss of the $160m (£100m) Apstar 2 satellite it was carrying is a severe blow to numerous networks competing in Asia's fast-growing satellite television market. Among the 13 companies with broadcasting capacity booked on Apstar 2 were Turner Broadcasting, the Discovery channel, the Disney channel, MTV Asia, Home Box Office Asia, NBC International and Reuters Television. The satellite was owned by a Peking-controlled company in Hong Kong, APT Satellite Company.
The launch failure gives added advantage to Mr Murdoch's Star TV system, which already has a head start on would-be rivals. Star TV broadcasts out of Hong Kong and is carried on the AsiaSat 1 satellite.
Yesterday's explosion will not only delay new enrants into the Asian airwaves, it will put on hold the expansion plans of many other operators which at the moment use the more limited Apstar 1 satellite.
Apstar 2, built by Hughes Aircraft, would have covered two-thirds of the world's population, from Australia through India to North Africa, and was designed to carry more than 100 digitally-compressed television channels that could be encrypted to target specific audiences.
Turner Broadcasting, which beams down from Apstar 1, said it was "disappointed" with the failed launch. The loss of Apstar 2 leaves broadcasters scrambling for alternative carriers. But AsiaSat 1 is full and Star TV has power of veto over competitors using AsiaSat 2, due to go into orbit later this year.
The Chinese-built Long March 2E rocket exploded about a minute after the early morning launch from Xichang space centre in Sichuan province. Embarrassingly for the Chinese authorities, who are very sensitive about such mishaps, the launch was broadcast live on state television and 100 foreign executives were present at the site.
"About 45 seconds after a smooth lift-off there was an explosion, apparently during the separation of boosters," said a Western television executive who witnessed the accident. "There was a series of crackles and bangs. It was very spectacular. There wasa big orange fireball in the sky. The main rocket dropped behind a mountain and exploded," he said. "The satellite crashed into another mountain."
The explosion casts another question mark over China's civil space industry. The country's Long March programme, operated by the state-owned Great Wall Industries, has gained an impressive list of customers by undercutting the prices charged by other satellite launchers.
In recent years, satellite launching in China has had a patchy record. The country's East Is Red 3 satellite was launched successfully last November but had to be abandoned this month due to a malfunction in its positioning systems. Last April, an explosion during fuelling of a $75m weather satellite on the Xichang launch pad destroyed the orbiter, killing one person and injuring 20.
The Foreign Ministry spokesman, Shen Guofang, said yesterday the cause of the latest problem was under investigation. "The cause of this incident is some technical problem, and I don't believe this will adversely affect the confidence in China's ability to launch satellites," he said.

Nathan Kemp is one of that relatively rare species – a male primary school teacher. And the 28-year-old, who teaches at Tollgate Primary School in Plaistow, east London, cannot understand why more have not followed in his footsteps. "It's strange," he says.
"When you're in a room and tell people you want to be a primary school teacher, they say, 'why do you want to do that?'. As for me, I don't understand that. I think it's great – the impact that a male teacher can have in the early years. It's not just about giving children from single- parent families male role models. It's about having that balance – growing up and socialising with both sexes."
Nathan is now in a unique position to do something about this, having been anointed Teacher of the Year at the annual Teaching Awards ceremony at the Victoria Palace Theatre last Sunday. His award is something of a first – the first time there has been an overall Teacher of the Year instead of separate winners for the primary and secondary sector.
Nathan's desire to become a teacher shone brightly on his horizon from the first day he attended primary school at the age of five. "I saw the teacher in front of the class – wearing patches, talking to the children – and thought 'I want to do that'," he says.
"I don't know why it is that more men don't want to put themselves forward," Nathan adds. "It's crazy. It's all I've wanted to do. I think it's the look on the pupils' faces as they get something that drives you on."
Nathan has been working for the past seven years at Tollgate school, a 450-pupil school in one of the country's more disadvantaged areas, where about 70 per cent of the pupils do not have English as a first language. Its pupils speak 48 different mother tongues between them so the emphasis is often on languages – French and Spanish are on the curriculum and they have a guest language from the 48 to study every month.
Before Nathan's headteacher, Tom Canning, took over the school it was identified by education standards watchdog Ofsted as causing concern. Its latest inspection, though, led to it being rated as outstanding.
Nathan is, by all accounts, a bundle of energy in the classroom and his advice to newly qualified teachers is: "Don't sit down all the time. Move about the classroom." It is a sure recipe, he believes, for keeping the children engaged.
Figures show that around one in four primary schools in England are solely populated by women – although there was a glimmer of light in the latest statistics published by the Teaching Agency earlier this year. The number of males embarking on training courses had risen from 2,467 to 3,743 over the past four years. That still means, though, that they only made up 19 per cent of all trainee teachers. Nathan's selection is therefore timely as he can make sure the drum for recruiting more males continues to beat.
He was one of seven teachers to win individual awards at last Sunday's revamped Teaching Awards. The roll of honour also included Liz Bailey, an English teacher at Clacton County High School, a comprehensive in Essex. In her third year of teaching at the school, Liz, 29, first taught undergraduates at university. She is now head of faculty at the school – standing in for a maternity leave.
It has been a difficult period for English teachers with the controversy over the marking of the subject's GCSE papers this summer. Liz saw some of the fall-out from that controversy – where the boundary for a C-grade pass was raised between the January and June sittings of the exam – first-hand with students who were unable to take up their A-level options this term. She is determined, though, to work harder this year to make sure her charges reach the new standard now demanded for a C-grade pass.
The highlight of her career so far has been the achievement of one of her pupils, Anna Page, in getting a place to read English at Cambridge University – the school's first Oxbridge entrant for 20-odd years.
"I'm incredibly passionate about English literature and so is she," said Liz. "At times she had been blighted by a lack of confidence, which might have been as a result of her surroundings in Clacton. She didn't realise she could achieve what she has but she was sitting there last night (at the awards ceremony), an English literature student at Cambridge. She was so incredibly passionate about literature. I was so pleased."
It was, in fact, Anna who nominated her for her award – Outstanding New Teacher of the Year.
Both Nathan and Liz are adamant they would like to remain in the classroom rather than gain promotion to do a desk-based job. "I just want to do something really well and be in the classroom," said Liz. "I hope this award will do something for the school – a comprehensive school in Clacton."
They were both looking forward to getting back to the classroom after their weekend as teacher celebrities.
"I was worrying how I was going to get up the stairs on to the stage with my high heels when I won the award," said Liz.
"I just thought I wish this was in front of 30 pupils in the school rather than 1,000 teachers at the Victoria Palace," added Nathan.
There are different opinions over the awards ceremony. Some feel it is wrong to single out one teacher for an award when achievement should be a reflection on the whole school. Most, though, believe the award will be a reflection of what their school has achieved – rather than they themselves as individuals.
The annual ceremony was rescued from dire financial straits by Pearson, the education firm that is the parent company for the Edexcel exam board, and will still have its slot on BBC 2 next Sunday evening at 5.25pm.
The idea of the awards ceremony was the brainchild of Chariots of Fire film director Lord (David) Puttnam in the days when he was a close adviser to the last Labour government and the awards are now set to continue, with nominations already being sought for next year.
At least one teacher that I spoke to at the weekend said that the glow it can give to the teaching profession in celebrating the achievements of individual teachers is worth more than any number of initiatives from the Government in improving morale in the profession.
Others thought it acted as an antidote to some of the more negative opinions of the profession often expressed on the national stage.Reuse content
