Young children watching adults play games(63 Posts)
I'm prepared to be flamed but this is something that really gets to me. I teach Reception and on a regular basis over the last few years, most noticeably 3 times this week with 3 different children, I have found myself saying "If you're too little to play the game, you're too little to watch". These are 4 year olds who watch their parents play things like Assassin's Creed, Call of Duty, Grand Theft Auto etc. What the hell goes through parents' heads? These games have ratings for a reason - would they let them watch an 18 rated movie ( no, don't answer that!)? It does frustrate and upset me that I often have to pick up the pieces at work in the form of inappropriate play/behaviour or distressed children. I do mention it to parents but usually get brushed off with a casual comment and a look that clearly says that I should be minding my own business! But if I don't say anything, who will? I am very careful how I approach the subject, and certainly do it professionally and non-judgementally. AIBU?
Eri, we just bought a load of horror DVDs actually (thanks to HMV clearance) exorcist, omen, shining, Halloween etc.
It's crazy to think we all used to laugh at the horror movies - I am much more scareable now as an adult!
Yanbu. DP sees no problem in letting DS (2.6) sit on his knee and watch him play COD, I hate it and cringe every time.
I know a lot of people think I'm the weird one for disliking it, I don't even like sitting in the room with him myself, all the banging and shouting and killing stresses me out.
Perhaps I'm old fashioned, I just don't think it's appropriate for young children.
And WIB I agree about MTV, a lot of videos are gross (even though I like the music). My DCs dance to classic fm <polishes halo>
IDrank, tell him not to do it. You are the parent too, don't put up with it.
Oh I do but he thinks I'm making a fuss over nothing. Most of the time he plays after ds's bedtime so it's not always a problem.
YANBU. The ratings are a LEGAL guideline - the parents are committing the offence of neglect if they allow their children to watch them, as they would be with porn or horror.
Try checking out with someone in school that understands about child protection. Here is the definition of neglect -
The government guidance for England, Working together to safeguard children (HM Government, 2010), defines neglect as:
" the persistent failure to meet a child's basic physical and/or psychological needs, likely to result in the serious impairment of the child's health or development. Neglect may occur during pregnancy as a result of maternal substance abuse. Once a child is born, neglect may involve a parent or carer failing to provide adequate food, clothing and shelter (including exclusion from home or abandonment); protect a child from physical and emotional harm or danger; ensure adequate supervision (including the use of inadequate care-givers); or ensure access to appropriate medical care or treatment. It may also include neglect of, or unresponsiveness to, a child's basic emotional needs."
The PEGI 18 rating :
The adult classification is applied when the level of violence reaches a stage where it becomes a depiction of gross violence and/or includes elements of specific types of violence. Gross violence is the most difficult to define since it can be very subjective in many cases, but in general terms it can be classed as the depictions of violence that would make the viewer feel a sense of revulsion.
Descriptors shown on the back of the packaging indicate the main reasons why a game has received a particular age rating. There are eight such descriptors: violence, bad language, fear, drugs, sexual, discrimination, gambling and online gameplay with other people.^
Putting it in black and white might help.
I thought t wuld be about kids watching ter parents play cherads or give us a clue . yanbu
It's not just parents either... teens playing them can pose a problem too
Do remember that when you send your kids on playdates etc as it's beyond your control
And also, small handheld gadgets have the same games. Pap, nintendo etc
YANBU... don't know who would flame you; nutters perhaps.
I had a go at DH today who had on WWE Raw when the DCs (3 and 1) were in the room.
Totally agree with you!! There is a Rating on the games for a reason...that also includes watching it!!! My Xh plays very very inappropriate games with my 9 yr old son, and my 7 yr old daughter is around... Games that are rated for M... or 17+.... (pretty sad she can't talk to daddy because he is busy gaming with people on line and he encourages his boys to play too!)
My 9yr knows I don't like violent games around, and he brought home games that he thought I wouldn't mind... (EIIK) if those are the "good games" I hate to see what the other games are!!!
I don't agree with military, hunting down people and shooting them. PERIOD.
I did attempt to speak with my XP, but, his house, his rules...
I walked in and said to my son, how come you don't have the volume on your game? "because it has bad words" GEEE.... GOOD one dad!! I can't imagine the mute button is used when he is at dad's house!!!
Okay, VENT... Sorry, didn't mean to take over...
My son and his g/f play aggressive games, but as soon as my grandson get a bit older, you better bet I will be saying something about it!
Well my Ds lies, he tells his nursery that he plays Halo
4 year olds aren't that reliable, clearly
Dh often plays these games and I have to take the kids out and shut the door, he sees nothing wrong with it at all. I could imagine if I wasn't around and they were playing he'd think nothing of having it on in the background. I just think some people aren't child orientated and find it really hard to see things from someone else's, especially a child's, pov. Some of these games are actually more realistic than films, so far worse in my opinion.
I even feel a bit worried about watching horror films when DD is asleep, because DH is half deaf and we have to have it really loud, and what if the sounds get into her subconscious?
fuzzpig Me neither, my parents weren't really interested in what I was watching (great parenting, I know). I remember watching Crash (the one with James Spader) when I was 13 and I am still scarred!
But yes OP YANBU, coming from someone who plays a lot of video games
I can't get past the idea of an adult playing computer games anyway- I thought this was going to be about children being bored watching their dad play football or cricket........
That's sweet whichisbest . I do wish schools would send out some fact sheets to parents about what their responsibility is to their offsprings mental well-being, preferably in large writing that they can stick on the telly and in nice male-friendly macho fonts (as opposed to comic sans which they usually do and no man takes seriously).
My dcs run in shame when I get the wii dance out.
Yanbu. Those games are scary..
YANBU my 6 year old came home from school really distressed as a girl told him she was going to get into his house at night stab him through the head and cut of the rest of the families heads when he was asleep.
Ds also frequently pretends to be a zombie and its certainly nothing he has picked up at home so much be school, can only imagine what some of these children must be viewing.
I second WhatAThingInYourLifeSaid.
Ben 10 and Black Ops 2 are similar? <boggles>
'Parents need to know that Call of Duty: Black Ops II is a gritty, extremely violent military first-person shooter set mostly in the near future. Players engage in graphic combat that involves constant killing using realistic weapons, with blood and gore pouring across the screen during more intense scenes. Cinematic sequences can be even more dramatic and graphic, with both soldiers and civilians dying in horrible ways. Players are cast in the role of good guys during most of the campaign, but they also take on the role of the game's villain in a couple of pivotal scenes, giving them opportunity to do evil. This M-rated game has frequent profanity and some sexual themes and drug use. Parents should also be aware that this game facilitates open voice communication.'
From this website (It is a US website, but good for looking up games and film reviews)
DS doesn't have a Ben 10 game but I doubt it contains 'gritty, extremely violent' scenes with 'blood and gore'.
YANBU. Why would anyone have a game like this on when a child is in the room?
Diddl-You sound like every teachers nightmare! How dare the teacher possibly have your childrens care at heart?! You seem to be one of those pain in the arse 'armchair teachers'.Parents always know best huh?
Well I would like to think that I know better than a teacher about what´s best for my child, that´s for sure!
Unfortunately for OP, parents who let their children see/watch these games aren´t likely to be interested in her opinion of their parenting, are they?
But I hold with what I say-that I wouldn´t like my child to be spoken to like that over something that perhaps they are not even choosing to do.
I'm a teacher. This is a child protection issue IMO. They aren't allowed to view porn. Why are they allowed to view violence?
Agree with you orangeandlemons - it's neglect.

Glass ionomer ART sealant and fluoride-releasing resin sealant in fissure caries prevention – results from a randomized clinical trial
Clinical oral healthcare research
The relative performance of ART sealant and fluoride-releasing resin sealant in preventing fissure caries in permanent molars was compared in a randomized clinical trial conducted in southern China (ClinicalTrials.gov NCT01829334).
After obtaining ethical approval, healthy schoolchildren who had permanent first molars with occlusal fissures which were sound but deep or presented with only incipient caries were recruited for the study. Included molars were randomly allocated into one of four parallel study groups in units of left/right teeth per mouth. Two of the four groups adopted the methods of ART or fluoride-releasing resin sealant placement while the other two groups adopted the topical fluoride application methods. Fissure status of the molars in each group was evaluated every 6 months. Development of dentine caries and sealant retention over 24 months in the molars in the two sealant-using groups was compared in this report. Outcome on cost-effectiveness of all four groups over 36 months will be reported elsewhere.
At baseline, a total of 280 children (383 molars) with mean age 7.8 years were involved for the two sealant groups. After 24 months, 261 children (357 molars) were followed. Proportions of molars with dentine caries were 7.3% and 3.9% in the ART sealant and fluoride-releasing resin sealant groups, respectively (chi-square test, p = 0.171). Life-table survival analysis showed that sealant retention (full and partial) rate over 24 months for the resin sealant (73%) was significantly higher than that (50%) for the ART sealant (p < 0.001). Molar survival (no development of dentine caries) rates in the ART sealant (93%) and fluoride-releasing resin sealant (96%) groups were not significantly different (p = 0.169). Multilevel logistic regression (GEE modeling) accounting for the effects of data clustering and confounding factors confirmed this finding.
Though the retention of fluoride-releasing resin sealant was better than that of the ART sealant, their effectiveness in preventing fissure caries in permanent molars did not differ significantly over 24 months. ART sealants could be a good alternative when and where resources for resin sealant placement are not readily available.
Pits and fissures in the first molars are the most susceptible sites for dental caries in the permanent dentition
Sealing the pits and fissures of molars and premolars for prevention of dental caries was first introduced in the 1960s
Although a number of different types of glass ionomers have been used previously as sealants, largely low-viscosity Type III sealants and ART sealants using high viscous type II restorative GIC, systematic reviews comparing GIC sealants with resin sealants have almost always, perhaps unfairly, pooled these different types of GIC sealants under a single category which makes true specific comparisons difficult. Consequently, inconsistent findings have been found regarding the comparative effectiveness of GIC to resin sealant in preventing fissure caries
Strengthened highly viscous (type II restorative) GIC has the property of rapid setting, considerably reduced moisture sensitivity in the early setting stage and low solubility in oral fluids
A randomized controlled trial aimed at comparing the effectiveness of four different methods in preventing pit and fissure caries in permanent molars was conducted in southern China. The aim of this article was to report on the 24-month results of this trial, targeting specifically on the relative effectiveness of a self-cured ART sealant and that of a light-cured fluoride-releasing resin sealant in fissure caries prevention in permanent first molars of schoolchildren. Results on long-term cost-effectiveness of all four groups over a 36-month period will be reported elsewhere. The null hypothesis to test in this report was that there was no difference between the effectiveness of the two types of fissure sealants.
This study was a randomized clinical trial with four parallel groups (ClinicalTrials.gov NCT01829334). Besides the two sealant-adopting groups compared here, the other two groups involved fluoride application. Ethical approval of the study was obtained from the Institutional Review Board of the University of Hong Kong. It was carried out in Shenzhen, China where the water supply was not fluoridated but fluoride toothpaste was common in the market. The concurrent dental caries prevalence of the 12-year-old children in Shenzhen when this study was started was 29.8% (mean DMFT score: 0.54) and 66.7% of the dental caries was nested in the permanent first molar
Children aged 7 to 9 years attending two of the largest primary schools in Shenzhen were invited to participate in the study. Children with written parental consent were clinically examined by dentists in their school. Children who did not have any major general health problems and had permanent first molars with occlusal fissures which were deep (base of fissure cannot be seen) or presented with signs of incipient caries (opacity and discoloration seen when viewed wet), similar to ICDAS code 2
Included molars were randomly allocated into one of four parallel study groups (resin sealant, ART sealant, and two topical fluorides) in units of left/ right teeth per subject. If molars of both sides of one mouth were included, the molars on one side of the mouth were assigned to one group and those on the other side were assigned to another group. If only molars on the same side of one mouth were included, only one group was assigned to the mouth. At least one and at most two groups would be assigned in the same mouth. Two groups using topical fluorides would not be assigned in the same mouth. There were five possible combinations of two out of the four study groups (resin sealant/ART sealant, resin sealant/SDF - silver diammine fluoride solution, resin sealant/NaF - sodium fluoride varnish, ART sealant/SDF, ART sealant/NaF) and these were assigned with numbers 1 to 5. Papers with the numbers written on were put into an envelope to be drawn by an assistant to decide the group combination of the included molars of a subject. A coin was then thrown to decide which side of the molars would be assigned the group with a smaller group number in the combination. If only molars of one side were included, the other group in the selected combination would be discarded.
Molars allocated in the two sealant groups received single placement of the fluoride-releasing resin sealant (Clinpro, 3 M ESPE, Seefield/Oberbay, Germany) or ART sealant (Ketac-Molar Easymix, 3 M ESPE, Seefield, Germany). Oral hygiene instruction was provided to all children in the study at baseline. The oral health related behaviors of the children including the toothbrushing habits and the frequency of taking sweet snacks and drinks were asked and recorded by the examiners/assistants.
Sealants were provided in the schools by four operators with help from chair-side assistants. The operators were two independent dentists from a local public hospital who carried out most of the sealant placement and the two aforementioned examiners who provided a small proportion of the treatments when the two independent dentists were not available. The chief examiner (YX) had good previous experience in providing the treatment while the other three dentists had little experience. Hands-on training on providing the two types of sealant was provided to the less experienced operators by YX in a compromised clinical environment before the start of this study. In sealant placement, the molar was isolated with cotton rolls. Occlusal surfaces of molars in resin sealant group were etched with 37% phosphoric acid for 15–20 seconds, washed with water which was removed by suction connected to a portable dental unit, and then dried with air blow from a 3-in-1 syringe attached to the dental unit. Resin sealant was then applied and light-cured for 20 seconds using a LED curing-light. Occlusal surfaces of molars in ART sealant group were conditioned with the liquid component of the glass ionomer for 10–15 seconds, cleaned by cotton pellets soaked with water, and then dried with cotton pellets. GIC material was hand mixed according to the manufacture's instruction and placed using the finger-press technique
Development of dentine caries (ICDAS Code 4–6) and sealant retention (completely retained, partially retained, and no sealant) in the molars was assessed blindly every 6 months by the same two calibrated dentists involved in the baseline examination. Intra-oral LED light, disposable plane front-surface mouth mirrors were used in the examinations. CPI probes to aid the diagnosis of dental caries and sharp sickle-shaped dental explorers to aid the assessment of sealant retention were used when necessary. Fissures with fully retained sealants were regarded as sound. The primary outcome was development of dentine caries in the study molars.
A 10% random sample, selected one out of every 10 subjects using systematic random sampling method by the dental assistant, was re-examined during every examination (baseline and follow-up). Inter-examiner reproducibility between the two examiners in this study during baseline examination and follow-up evaluation were monitored.
In sample size calculation, it was anticipated that around 90% of molars receiving resin sealant would not have dentin caries after 24 months
Data analysis
Data was input into computer and analysis was performed using SPSS 20.0 (SPSS Inc., Chicago, IL, USA). Chi-square test was used to compare the caries incidence rates. Life-table survival analysis was used to compare the cumulative molar survival (no dentine caries developed) rates and sealant retention (full and partial) rates over 24 months of the two groups. Considering the relatively short observation period and the low caries progression rate, a multi-level logistic regression analysis using generalized estimating equation (GEE) modeling which used single-time-point outcome data was also performed. Outcome was reported at the tooth level, and a two-level structure (level 1 - tooth; level 2 - child) was adopted. The dependent variable was presence of dentine caries at the 24-month examination. Independent variables included those at the child level: gender (boy/girl), age, snacking (≥2 times daily or not), toothbrushing (≥2 times daily or not); as well as variables at the tooth level: treatment (resin sealant/ART sealant), status at baseline (sound or present with signs of incipient caries), molar location (upper/lower), baseline DIAGNOdent reading (≤15/16-39) of the molar, group combination during random allocation (sealant/sealant, sealant/SDF, sealant/NaF) and period of sealant retention (0–4 times 6 months). Interaction effects between and among the independent variables were considered. Exchangeable and independent correlation structure of the clustering of molars in each child was also assessed, and the model yielding the lowest adjusted quasi-likelihood under the independence model criterion (QIC) value was selected as the final model.
Among the 1203 children screened, a total of 317 children (45.7% boys) with 744 molars were recruited for this study. At baseline, a total number of 280 children (44% boys) with 383 permanent first molars were included into the two sealant groups in the study (Figure
Figure 1
Subjects flow until 24 months in the two sealant groups in the study (n- number of subject, N-number of molar)
Subjects flow until 24 months in the two sealant groups in the study (n- number of subject, N-number of molar).
A total of 261 (93.2%) children with 357 (93.2%) molars were followed at 24 months for the two sealant groups. There was no statistically significant difference between the two groups in the distribution of children and molars lost to follow-up. No statistically significant differences were found between the children followed at 24 months and those lost to follow-up regarding their background and oral health behaviors as well as the distribution of the molars. No complaints from the children and no adverse effect of the treatments were found during this study.
The proportions of study molars with dentine caries at the 24-month examination in the resin and ART sealant groups were 3.9% (7 out of 178) and 7.3% (13 out of 179) respectively (p = 0.171). Results of the Life-table survival analysis showed that the cumulative molar survival (no dentine caries developed) rates over 24 months in the resin sealant and ART sealant groups were 96% and 93% respectively (p = 0.169). The proportions of sealants retained at the 24-month examination in the resin and ART sealant groups were 78.7% (140 out of 178) and 55.3% (99 out of 179) respectively (p < 0.001). The cumulative sealant retention (full and partial) rate over 24 months was 75% for the resin sealant and 52% for the ART sealant (p < 0.001). The mean number of survival periods (in units of 6 months) were 3.4 (SD = 1.2) and 2.7 (SD = 1.5) for the resin and ART sealants, respectively (p < 0.001). Molar survival (no dentine caries developed) and sealant retention in the two groups over the 24-month period of this study is shown in Figure

Cumulated proportions of molar survival and sealant retention over 24 months in the two sealant groups, resin sealant (RS) and ART sealant (GIS) (error bars show the 95% confidence intervals of the estimated mean).
Regarding the design of the study, cross-over effect of fluoride on the effectiveness of sealant placement in fissure caries prevention might exist, the amount of which cannot be estimated in this study. Despite this, similar proportions of molars in the two sealant groups were exposed to a topical fluoride application method in the same mouth. In addition, both types of sealant used in this study are fluoride-releasing materials. Thus, the above mentioned factor was considered to be balanced between the two sealant groups. Such factor was considered as a confounding factor and included in the logistic regression modeling during data analysis. The results show that it did not have a significant effect on the outcome of this study. Accumulation of the caries-preventive effect may be raised when combined application of different topical fluoride regimes are provided
In this study, attrition bias due to the subjects and molars lost to follow-up was considered not a major problem because the following two reasons. Firstly, no statistically significant differences were found between the children followed at 24 months and those lost to follow-up regarding their background and oral health behaviors as well as the distribution of the molars. This indicates that the subjects and the molars lost to follow-up in this study at the 24 months probably did not differ substantially from those followed. Secondly, there was no statistically significant difference between the two groups in the distribution of children and molars lost to follow-up. The risk of detection bias was not totally avoided in this study. First of all, it is a common problem for studies comparing ART sealant with resin sealant because of the distinctly different appearance of the two types of sealants. Secondly, the two examiners placed a small number of sealants in this study after they had finished all the baseline examinations and when the other two independent dentists were not available. The latter factor is probably not too significant as the first follow-up evaluation took place 6 months after the sealant placement.
Resin sealant placement in this study is regarded as the positive control because its effectiveness in fissure caries prevention has been well established
There was no statistically significant difference regarding the 24-month dentine caries incidence rates as well as the molar survival rates between the two sealant groups in this study. Multivariate two-level logistic regression analysis (GEE modeling) which can account for the effects of confounding factors and data clustering was adopted
There is currently no systematic review specially targeted on the comparison between ART sealant and light-cured resin sealant in fissure caries prevention. A literature search yielded four comparable original studies
The 24-month retention rate of the resin sealant in this study is lower than those commonly reported in other studies which are around 80%
The 24-month retention rate of ART sealant in this study (52% full + partial retention) is generally lower than those reported in previous comparable studies conducted under similar field settings which ranged 50-72% over a longer 3-year period
Although a significantly lower retention rate and shorter retention time than those of the fluoride-releasing resin sealant were found for the ART sealant in this study, the effectiveness of ART sealant in fissure caries prevention did not differ significantly from that of the resin sealant used in this study. This might be explained by the findings of Beiruti et al. that high-viscosity GIC sealants had a four times higher chance of preventing caries development in re-exposed pits and fissures of occlusal surfaces in first molars than resin sealant over a 1- to 3-year period
In the final GEE modeling in this study, it was also found that presence of early caries in the occlusal surfaces of the molars before sealant placement and shorter retention of sealant on the molars significantly increased the risk of developing dentine caries in the pits and fissures. These findings are consistent with those of other studies
Comparing the placement of the two types of sealants, it is noted that the number and training of dental personal required as well as the time used are similar. However, the set-up and running of an ART sealant program for children in schools will be easier than those of a resin sealant program. It is because the equipment required for ART sealant placement is rather simple (only a few hand instruments) whereas that for resin sealant placement requires an electrically powered dental unit. Given that the two methods yield similar effectiveness in fissure caries prevention, their relative affordability, availability, and simplicity should be considered when making a choice between the two. ART sealant might be more appropriate than resin sealant for use in less developed areas or in outreach dental service programs. In addition, the use of ART sealant instead of resin sealant will prevent the harmful exposure of children to additional Bisphenol A (BPA) releasing materials since systematic review has shown that BPA can be released from resin-based pit and fissure sealant
Within the limitation of this study, it is concluded that though the retention of fluoride-releasing resin sealant was better than that of the ART sealant, their effectiveness in preventing fissure caries in permanent molars did not differ significantly over 24 months. ART sealants could be a good alternative when and where resources for resin sealant placement are not readily available.

April 3, 2013
EDISON, N.J. - Loyola University Maryland sophomore Bart George has been named the Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference Golfer of the Month for March, as announced by the league office Wednesday.
George was Loyola's top finisher in two of three tournaments throughout March, including leading the Greyhounds to a runner-up finish at the Whiting-Turner Towson Individual earlier this week. George finished the three-day tournament on Tuesday tied for sixth place after carding a 9-over 225, with round scores of 74, 71 and 80, respectively.
A native of Arnold, Md., George began the month at the Charleston Shootout (3/4-5) by finishing 44th of 84 competitors with a score of 231. He then led the Greyhounds at the weather-shortened C&F Bank Intercollegiate, finishing the one-round tournament on March 26 tied for fifth at 1-under 69.

At Randstad Care, we understand the many challenges that you face working in the Health and Social Care sector today. These pressures come in many different guises from funding cuts, increased regulation to finding the time for learning and development in our busy schedules whilst working.
In order to carry out your role effectively, it is paramount to be able to put time aside for learning and development.

When you register with Randstad Care, you will be required to undertake relevant courses and keep them updated on an annual basis e.g. safeguarding training. Our courses are a blend of classroom based training sessions and e-learning. All of our courses are delivered by our own team of trainers, who are fully qualified and accredited and we continuously update our courses in line with regulatory associated bodies, and legislative updates. All training is followed by an assessment of your competencies and knowledge gained and you will be issued with a certificate upon successful completion of the course. Our goal is to help you to develop the right skills and build upon existing knowledge so that you can provide the highest level of care and support.
All our practical training is delivered in a classroom environment in our local branches by our experienced trainers. These courses have ongoing practical assessment by your trainer and/or a test at the end and on successful completion, candidates will receive certification.

Randstad Care training also offers you the theoretical knowledge you need to gain the Care Certificate. The Care Certificate is the start of a career in Health and Social Care and although the Care Certificate is designed for new staff, it also offers opportunities for existing staff to refresh or improve their knowledge.
The set of standards that need to be completed before the Care Certificate can be awarded are:
"I recently had one of our candidates call in to say thank you, shortly after attending one of our courses she had been with a service user who went into a seizure. She remembered what we had taught her and knew how to act. When the paramedics arrived they told her that she may have saved his life."
Revalidation will provide benefits for you as a nurse or midwife as well as the people you care for. It will help to encourage a culture of sharing, reflection and improvement and will be an ongoing process throughout your career.
It is important to know that revalidation is not about making an assessment of your fitness to practise; it is about promoting good practice across the whole population of nurses and midwives, as well as strengthening public confidence in the nursing and midwifery professions.
The requirements for revalidation state that you must have undertaken 35 hours of Continuing Professional Development (CPD) relevant to your scope of practice as a nurse or midwife in the three year period since your registration was last renewed, or when you joined the register. Of those 35 hours of CPD, at least 20 hours must have included participatory learning.
You must also maintain accurate records of CPD you have undertaken. These records must contain:
Randstad Care can support you with the training needed for revalidation. By attending our practical training or utilising our e-learning, you will be provided with the evidence you require for revalidation.
As part of staying registered with your professional body, the HCPC, you must undertake CPD to stay registered and they have a set of standards which your CPD must meet. Every time you renew your registration, you will need to confirm that you have met these standards.
We understand that every individual has different needs when it comes to learning and development. That is why we also offer bespoke training solutions based on your unique requirements. Many of our candidates obtain specialist skills through us to become an even greater asset to their employer.

Sara Shatford Layne, "Making the Move to RDA: A Self-Study Primer for Catalogers"
2014 | ISBN-10: 081088769X | 346 pages | PDF | 3 MB
is aimed at MARC catalogers who currently create AACR2 records and need to transition to the new Resource Description and Access (RDA) environment. Since both RDA's structure and content differ from AACR2 in many respects, this primer will first detail the development and rationale for RDA as well as its intended goals, principles, and objectives. It will then explain RDA's theoretical underpinnings-collectively known as the FRBR Family of Models.

Analyze current trends and long-term prospects for local food production and nutritional security in the Himalaya, one of the most fragile, important, and biodiverse ecological systems in the world.
Study in Sikkim, a stunning mountainous state and ecological hotspot.
Sikkim stands at the forefront of national and regional food politics. Its traditional agricultural systems maintain rich agro-biodiversity critical in ensuring nutritional security among mountain communities. It was the first state in India to legislate 100 percent adoption of organic food production.
Get hands-on agricultural experience during a village homestay.
By the end of the first week you will be living with a homestay family in the village of Patuk. You will take part in the household's daily chores and activities such as working your family's farm, making agro-based products, and processing ethnic food varieties.
Develop a collaborative project with your host community.
Projects are designed by you and innovation lab co-participants in conjunction with your host community members. The project will be relevant to farming communities and focused on food and agriculture.
Attend a half-day workshop led by local experts and community members.
The workshop aims to prepare you for the collaborative project by giving you an understanding of sustainability in relation to food and nutrition security in the context of globalization, climate change, and government policies.
Analyze conservation and management of food production through the lenses of society and gender.
Explore agricultural systems, agro-biodiversity conservation, and food culture.
Discover how climate change, globalization, and government policies impact food production and nutritional security.
Critical Global Issue of Study
Development | Economy | Inequality
None. Previous college-level coursework or other significant preparation in environmental studies, agriculture, policy studies, sociology, or related fields recommended.
Key Topics of Study
Key Topics of Study
- People, livelihood, culture, and society in Sikkim

The following syllabi are representative of this program. Because courses develop and change over time to take advantage of dynamic learning opportunities, actual course content will vary from term to term. The syllabi can be useful for students, faculty, and study abroad offices in assessing credit transfer. Read more about credit transfer.
- Food – syllabus
- (ILAB3010 / 4 credits / 60 hours)
- An interdisciplinary course focused on integrated Himalayan agricultural systems and nutritional security in the context of education systems, globalization, climate change, and government policies in local communities. The course emphasizes the practical aspects of local agro-biodiversity, food production, and food culture as students engage in hands-on agricultural community practices and develop a collaborative, food-focused project.
Please note that in order to take advantage of dynamic learning opportunities, program excursions may occasionally vary.
Pendam Village
A three-day site visit to Pendam, in east Sikkim, is scheduled during the end of the second week to link key theoretical concepts and policy questions with lived experiences and to provide a comparative site for food and nutritional security questions in the state of Sikkim. Pendam is witnessing changes in agriculture, some because of climate change's impact on water resources, some thanks to government policies. This visit will give you insight into changes in agricultural production, crop and land use patterns, food culture and nutrition as a result of globalization (e.g., the import of packaged foods), and livelihood (from farming to industry).
The Pendam site visit takes place prior to the formal start of your collaborative lab project and provides context and preparation for your work on the lab project you develop.

Collaborative Lab Project
Collaborative Lab Project
In conjunction with your host community, you and your group will design a collaborative project related to food that is relevant to the community's needs.
Throughout weeks one and two of the program, potential ideas for collaborative lab projects, grounded in mutual interests, will emerge from your immersive experiences within your host community. These ideas will be developed through dialogue with community members and frequent critical reflection sessions supported by academic literature. You will have further conversations with community members on the project type and its design by the end of week two.
Week three will focus on project execution and preliminary implementation. The final week (week four) will focus on the realization, assessment, and trouble-shooting of the proposed project. Depending upon the scale of the project and feasibility given the remaining available time, you may be able to complete the project proposal for implementation and completion of the project at a later date.
Engagement in this hands-on project will equip you to understand and analyze the sustainability of food production and nutrition security within rapidly changing agricultural systems. You will also have acquired new skills in implementing innovative techniques to promote sustainable food production in other contexts.
The homestay is an integral part of the SIT experience. During your homestay, you'll become a member of a local family, sharing meals with them, joining them for special occasions, talking with them in their language, and experiencing the host country through their eyes. Homestay placements are arranged by a local coordinator who carefully screens and approves each family. Students frequently cite the homestay as the highlight of their program. Read more about SIT homestays.
You'll spend two weeks with a homestay family in the village of Patuk in Sikkim's south district. This extended and culturally immersive stay exposes you to farming systems and integrated, sustainable farming practices that respect biodiversity, traditional knowledge, and Mother Earth. You will learn about in-situ conservation of agricultural biodiversity and the role of gender in food production and processing and in ensuring nutritional security. You will participate in agricultural practices such as sowing, transplanting, harvesting, making hay mats, and processing food with village families.
You will also have a three-day homestay during the excursion to Pendam village.

Chicken salad with fruit is a favorite of mine. Never made one using canteloupe. Make sure to use a sweet, ripe melon for maxiumum flavor.

Owl's Eyes
Recipe by LoriInIndiana
Check these out before you say GROSS!! They're not what you think....Honest. I had these a while back at my stamp club, courtesy of another stamper. They are so popular around here right now that you can't find the pretzel rings or Hugs just anywhere. Hope you'll try them too! They're so simple, I'm kinda ashamed to call it a recipe......... ZWT MidAtlantic for the chocolate
Top Review by kbcountrymom
Well, after reading the ingredients I went straight to the store and bought them. I read the reviews and my favorite candy bar is the take 5 so as a few of the readers said, I used the peanut butter pretzels from Snyder. I also prefer dark chocolate so I used dark chocolate kisses and dark chocolate m&m's and these were to die for. They taste so much like take 5's. They were so easy to make and absolutely delicious. Mine, however, did not look like eyes, but I dont care, they were awesome!!! I would give it 10 stars but, well....they dont have 10

Georgetown College volleyball flexed some muscle in the opening game of its Boneyard Brawl. The Tigers, who just fell out of the rankings for the first time in more than a year, handed Viterbo a straight-set loss 25-23, 25-23, 25-23 and had to claw for everything.
"We showed a lot of fight," said GC coach Nick Griffin. "We had control a couple of times and of course I would have preferred to see us step on the gas and put those away. However, you have to expect good teams to make their runs as well. Viterbo did and we didn't lose focus. We stayed with the game plan and came out on top."
It was a bit of a revenge match as the V-Hawks ended Georgetown's season in the quarterfinals of the NAIA Volleyball National Tournament.
Caraline Maher led the Tigers with 12 kills and Kathryn Smith added 10. Stephanie Gurren had 25 kills, while Lindsey Martindale added 15. GC got a balance back court boost as Courtney Grafton had 14 digs, Lauren Schneidtmiller 13 and Kristen Schellhaas 10.
Tigers return to action 7 pm against No. 1 Texas Brownsville.

I just learned about a murderous tire movie called Rubber. IMDB says, "When Robert, a tire, discovers his destructive telepathic powers, he soon sets his sights on a desert town; in particular, a mysterious woman becomes his obsession." (www.imdb.com/title/tt1612774/?ref_=...)
The movie is rated R. How murderous can a tire be? I don't normally watch R movies, but I am so tempted to see this one. I wonder if it'll be anything like that weird movie where the semi trucks come alive and kill people...
And the kicker to all of this is that this movie was made in 2010! Have we run out of idea for good movies? LOL!
So here's my poll (I put one in for you, CupcakeLlama):

Can someone help me understand revenue sharing?
I'm wondering if anyone can explain how the revenue sharing works in the nhl.
I understand how revenue sharing works between teams; financially, the top 10 teams contribute money into a pot that the bottom 15 teams can claim money from. The amount they can claim depends on a number of factors from over the course of the season (attendance % etc.).
But what I DO NOT understand is how the players are involved in the revenue sharing. I mean I know they were getting 57% with the previous CBA and that it is looking to be 50% on the new one. But how exactly does this affect players contracts, or
how exactly is this percentage of revenues "shared" with the players?
I would like to point out that I do understand that the salary cap is determined by the previous seasons revenues. Which obviously over the last several years has been advantageous for the players because revenues have grown very healthily which has increased the salary cap thereby allowing individual players higher salaries... Is the cap determined by the
players %
of revenue sharing and thus is how the revenues are "shared" with the players or am I way off the mark in thinking this?
Also, how will this "make whole" agreement work for the players?
Sorry if this has been beaten to death and explained multiple times, I haven't been on the boards since hockey was cancelled. If it has been I am happy to jump to a link!
cheers for any help on this...

Oakland Tribune
November 6, 2010 by USA Post
Oakland Tribune, Dennis J. Oliver, a veteran police reporter for several newspapers and the environment now owned by the company, has died after a brief illness. He was 47.
Oliver began with the Alameda Newspaper Group (now Bay Area News Group-East Bay) in June 1981 and initially worked in the Tri-Valley Herald in Pleasanton and Hayward daily review of both places as award-winning police reporter. He moved to the politics of environmental information, and writing, research news and special projects for the Oakland Tribune and other papers Alameda Newspaper Group, where he remained until 2000. More recently he has worked in the environment of public affairs.
Oliver, of Incline Village, Nevada, died in a hospital in Carson City, Nevada, after an illness of a month.
After leaving newspapers, Oliver worked as director of communications for the Sacramento-based California Alliance for Jobs, where he focused on the promotion of public infrastructure projects. Over the past three and half years, he worked as public information officer for the Tahoe Regional Planning Agency, or TRPA, a colleague said.
"Dennis made a great impact on Lake Tahoe during his time here," said the director of external affairs agency, Julie Regan, his supervisor and colleague. "We will remember her smile, her extraordinary talent and especially his strong commitment to the restoration of Lake Tahoe."
While he was a reporter, who won numerous awards, covering a variety of breaking news
stories and writing research papers
In 1988, while working at the Hayward Daily Review, Oliver and his fellow journalist Karen Welk were honored by the Press Club of San Francisco with a first-place award for reporting under pressure within 03 1987 murder of police officer Ben Hayward Worcester. The two wrote a story about violent death and its impact on the lives of families and people involved, which fell within a few hours of slaughter.
Don Buchholz, editor of the night before the daily review that worked with Oliver in the 1980′s and early 1990, remembered him as "a bulldog of a reporter who gave 111 percent effort in everything that made our police reporter. He had an outstanding work ethic … and a really excellent job. "
In 1990, Oliver earned a second place award in the category of research for The Associated Press Executives Council of California and Nevada for a story about bus drivers working without a license for AC Transit.
His reports and the interests of life were varied.
Oakland Tribune reporter and columnist Angela Hill worked with Oliver between 1993 and 2000 in the Tri-Valley Herald and the Oakland Tribune. Oliver said she loved a good mystery. When Hill was an internship at the Tri-Valley Herald, Oliver was a writer, experienced staff. One day the two were sent together to find a severed leg that an anonymous caller had reported seeing up in the desert, winding Mines Road in Livermore.
"We never found the leg, and neither did the police, it was disappointing to Dennis, who hoped to become a ball great news," said Hill.
The two crossed paths again when Oliver was an assistant city editor at the Herald, and again in the Tribune as a reporter of the environment. "He was always solid and deep, and immersed himself in what he did, at work and in other parts of your life," he said.
Oliver loved nature and the outdoors and wrote two regional travel guides, nature and outdoors, "Inside Out Northern California" (1999) and "Camping! Northern California" (2001). He supported the arts and enjoyed painting in his spare time. He was an avid poker player and supported many charity poker tournaments in casinos near his home, said a friend.
Chris Campos, a designer with the San Jose Mercury News, Oliver knew for more than 30 years. "I was surprised to hear of the death of Dennis. Dennis was a professional news experience enormous talent and determination."
"I met Dennis in the Hayward Daily Review where he initially worked as an employee of wire for me. When I moved to the metro desk, I was able to promote its first reporter position. Was a decision that never regret. He learned ropes and quickly became one of the most prolific and tenacious journalists of our staff. I worked with him at various functions and places in the next 20 years and was very sad to see leave newspapers for the public sector. As a colleague and a friend, greatly miss him. "

Let us know when your receive great advice so we can thank our lawyers and point others with similar questions in the right direction.Got it!
My husband was in a car accident with a guy in a rental car from another country. We filed a claim right away. First the insurance company said they were trying to figure out whether he was here on business or pleasure, don't know why. Then after two weeks they said they can not pay for any damages to my car due to not being able to get a hold of his employer. After about a week they called back and said that they found them both at fault because the other guy states he didn't see my husbands headlights so they are trying to claim he had no headlights on when he was driving at night (ridiculous!). Do you know how long it might take to win something like this or when you think they will just give up fighting us and pay. Have a lawyer and police report states he was at fault. Help!!!
This question is difficult to answer based on the information provided. Your attorney is in the best position to answer this question because he or she knows the particular details of your case and any factors that may prolong settlement.
However, there are numerous reasons that insurance companies have for not paying on claims, some make sense and others are hard to justify, especially to people who have been injured. Keep in mind, that proving that the other party is at fault is only one step in the process. Your attorney also has to prove the damages and injuries that were caused by this event. Often this is what prolongs matters. I usually give my clients a big range in time of a few months to a few years when answering their questions as to how long the process will take. Some things you and your attorney can control, and some things are in the control of third parties, such as the insurance company and the adjustor handling the claim.
It generally does not make sense to try to settle before injuries are healed, or at least before they are diagnoised and fully understood as to what their long term affects will be. Cooperate with your attorney, follow his or her advice, and promptly respond to requests for information. Keep detailed records of time missed from work, as well as co-pays for doctor visits, and mileage and other out of pocket costs. Follow the advice of your doctors, and keep your attorney informed of the status of your medical treatment. This will help your attorney do the best job possible for you within the quickest time possible. Good luck.Ask a similar question
