Was My Loved One's Medical Treatment Negligent?
Although medical procedures often come with a certain level of risk, medical staff have a legal duty to exercise due care when treating patients. If someone dies as a direct result of medical treatment, then it's necessary to establish whether or not this duty has been breached.
To give you a greater understanding on whether or not a breach has occurred, we've put together some guidance on what constitutes medical negligence.
If you think that your loved one's death may have been caused as a result of medical negligence, our Medical and Clinical Negligence Solicitors can assess your claim for free and provide you with advice and guidance on the next steps.
For a free consultation with a Medical Negligence Solicitor call 0330 606 9673 or contact us online and we will help you.
What is Medical Negligence?
Medical negligence occurs when a medical practitioner, such as a doctor or nurse, has not exercised reasonable care in their treatment of a patient. It may be that they have done something they shouldn't have, or that they have failed to do something they should have.
If both of the following have occurred, then this constitutes medical negligence:
- There has been a breach of duty and conduct has fallen short of the duty of care owed. This essentially means that the medical practitioner has not provided care of a reasonable standard.
- There is a link between the breach of duty and the injury sustained by the patient. If it can't be demonstrated that the breach caused or contributed to the injury then there will be no grounds to make a medical negligence claim.
Examples of Medical Negligence
Common examples of medical negligence include:
- Failing to diagnose an illness or injury, or diagnosing it late
- Carrying out unnecessary or inappropriate medical treatment
- Carrying out unnecessary surgery
- Making a mistake during surgery or not carrying out a procedure correctly
These mistakes could have been made as a result of a medical practitioner not carrying out the correct tests, not following the correct processes or procedures, or not referring a patient for specialist treatment when they needed it. Medical negligence can occur in any situation where medical treatment has been carried out, such as a GP appointment, a surgical procedure in a public or private hospital, cosmetic surgery, childbirth, orthopaedic treatment or the prescription of medicines.
Factors that can result in medical negligence are wide ranging but aside from human error, other factors may include inadequate systems or process, or insufficient staff on duty to be able to care for patients effectively.
What to Do if You Suspect a Death Was Caused by Medical Negligence
If you think that your loved one's death may have been caused as a result of medical negligence, then it's important that you speak to a specialist Medical Negligence Solicitor as soon as possible. At Co-op Legal Services, our Solicitors specialise in clinical and medical negligence and can provide a free assessment of your claim to establish whether medical negligence may have occurred.
If you instruct us to take on your claim, your Solicitor will carry out a detailed assessment to establish the nature, extent and cause of the injuries that your loved one sustained as a result of the negligence. We can also support you through the coroner's inquest process, liaising with the coroner on your behalf, reviewing all supporting documentation ahead of the inquest hearing and providing you with representation on the day.
If the evidence heard at the inquest indicates that the death occurred as a result of the actions or negligence of a medical practitioner, we will then support you though the medical negligence claims process.
For coroner & inquest advice call our No Win No Fee Solicitors on 0330 606 9587 or contact us online and we will call you.

I have many Journler entries that a) contain only a pdf icon that links to a pdf and b) others that contain text in addition to the pdf icon.
For both of these, I see that "capture" brings in two files: an rtfd file (containing a pdf icon and text, if any) with the same name and creation date as the Journler entry and a pdf file with the pdf's filename and creation date.
Is there already available a way to apply the rtfd entry name to the corresponding entry for the pdf file when capturing from Journler?
Or, even better, is there already available a way to do the above and take the text from the rtfd, put it in the note field for the pdf, and delete the rtfd?

Shahbaz shifted to 'airy' room for medical reasons
LAHORE: The National Accountability Bureau, Lahore, has reportedly shifted PML-N President Shahbaz Sharif to a ventilated room in the light of his medical reports.
An official told Dawn on Saturday that Mr Sharif had been shifted to a ventilated room at the NAB Thokar Niaz Baig building in the light of his medical reports.
According to medical reports, leader of the opposition in the National Assembly is suffering from kidney infection, has lymph node in his chest and there are chances of the recurrence of cancer.
The CT (computed tomography) scan report of the former chief minister shows a number of problems and his medical fitness certificate suggests more doctors, including an oncologist and an urologist, on the medical board taking care of his health.
Meanwhile, NAB reportedly has allowed former prime minister Nawaz Sharif to meet his younger brother on Sunday (today) at the bureau's Lahore office.
Shahbaz Sharif has been in NAB's custody since Oct 5 in Ashiana Housing corruption case.

Country Report - Bulgaria
by Stoilko Apostolov, Bioselena.
This article was originally written for the publication "Organic in Europe", published by the IFOAM EU Group in collaboration with the Research Institute of Organic Agriculture FiBL, Switzerland, and the Mediterranean Institute for Agronomic Research CIHEAM-IAM, Bari, Italy.
Key indicators 2012
- Organic agricultural area: 39,138 hectares
- Operators:
- Organic producers: 2,754
- Organic processors: 81
- Organic importers: 1
- Organic exporters:14
- Retail sales: EUR 6-8 million (2009), according to unofficial information
Area and operator data: Ministry of Agriculture Bulgaria; market data: Bioselena.
History of organic farming
- 1987: The Agroecological centre is established at the Agricultural University Plovdiv
- 1996: Bioselena, the foundation for organic agriculture, is established
- 2001: National organic legislation published
- 2001: First organic certification in Bulgaria
- 2004: First organic shop in Sofia
- 2005: Organic food can be found for the first time in supermarkets
- 2008: Organic boom – more than 1,500 shops selling organic products
- 2008: First compensatory payments available for organic farming under measure 214 of the national rural development programme
- 2009 Bulgarian organic farmers' association established
Key sector institutions
- Ministry of Agriculture and Food (MoAF): www.mzh.government.bg
- Bulgarian organic products Association (BOPA): www.bgbio.org
- Foundation for organic agriculture, Bioselena: www.bioselena.com
- Bulgarian organic trade association: www.abt-bulgaria.org
- Agricultural University Plovdiv: www.au-plovdiv.bv
Production base: land use and key crops
Of the total organic area of 39,138 hectares (2012)
- 45.8 % consists of arable land,
- 28 % permanent crops, and
- 20.3 % permanent grassland and grazing areas
The key arable crops are
- cereals, primarily wheat (7,532 hectares),
- oilseeds (primarily sunflower and rape; 3,292 hectares), and
- green fodder from arable land including temporary grasses and grazing areas (2,044 hectares)
The key permanent crops are
- nuts, primarily walnuts and hazelnuts (5,981 hectares),
- orchards with temperate fruits (2,155 hectares), and
- vineyards (2,058)
In addition to organic agricultural area, Bulgaria has a notable organic wild collection area of 473,941 hectares
Both production and the market are growing rapidly, but organic producers continue to mainly export raw materials. An estimated 90 % of the organic products are exported as raw material, whilst 95 % of the organic goods consumed domestically are imported. Almost all supermarket chains offer organic products. The number of specialised shops for organic products is increasing. There are no national statistics for market data. According to the only survey conducted by Bioselena, in early 2009 (unofficial information), the volume of the market for organic products in Bulgaria ranges from EUR 6-8 million.
- Top-selling products: Baby foods and dairy products (milk, yoghurt, cheese).
- Exports and imports: Most of the organic products (about 90 %) are exported to Central and Western European countries, North America, and Japan. There is no official data on exports. About 90 % of organic products marketed in Bulgaria are imported from the European Union.
There are no imports from third countries.
Standards, legislation, organic logo
EU legislation on organic farming and other regulations directly applicable in Bulgaria. The national ordinance N. 1/2013 regulates the work of the control bodies.
The national organic logo is voluntary and free, but rarely used. The Ministry of Agriculture and Food owns the logo.
Policy support
- National action plan: Bulgaria has a national action plan for the development of organic farming in Bulgaria 2007-2013 (Националенпланзаразвитиенабиологичнотоземеделие в България 2007-2013).
More information available at: www.mzh.government.bg/MZH/Libraries/Organic_Farming/NOFAP_FINAL_en.sflb.ashx
The total budget is approximately EUR 82 million. Its goals include that 8 % of agricultural land should be managed organically by 2013, and 3 % of the food sold in Bulgaria should be organic by 2013.
- Support under EU rural development programmes: Compensatory payments under agri-environment schemes have been available since 2008. The payments are higher during the transition period and depend on the crop. Lower payments are made for pastures and meadows (EUR 120 per hectare); the highest payments are for orchards and vineyards (EUR 729 per hectare). Payments for organic apiculture are EUR 18.5 per beehive. Additional points are given to organic farmers for investments and for the projects of young farmers.
Extension services for farmers and forest owners (Measure 143) under the national rural development programme have been implemented since the end of 2010. This offers farmers the use of consultancy services. The maximum value of the services supported is EUR 1,500 per farm for a period of two years. 80 % of the sum spent by the farmer is refunded through the programme. Only 83 farmers have applied; 12 consultancy organisations were approved by the Ministry of Agriculture and Food (including Bioselena and Agrarian University of Plovdiv).
Research & advice
Organic research is occasionally undertaken by some NGOs and research institutes as part of international projects. NGOs, private companies and research institutes offer advice on organic production and processing.
Specialised consulting organisations, such as Bioselena, offer advice to farmers. Some of the researchers also offer consulting services. Traders in fertilisers and plant protection products also offer advice. The Agrarian University of Plovdiv offers a facultative academic programme of 30 hours for students, as well as master degree programmes in organic farming. Bioselena offers professional training in organic agriculture for farmers.
Challenges & outlook
Certified organic livestock farms make up only a small share of all organic farms (there are only 18 livestock farms out of 2,754 farms). This creates an imbalance in production, and it diverges from the principles of organic agriculture, which view animals as an essential element for the nutrients cycle on the farm.

In order to improve the mechanical strength in magnetite iron ore pellets it is of vital importance to be able to characterize and quantitatively measure the degree of sintering and features that impact the process of sintering.
The goal of this doctoral research project is to develop fully automated image analysis techniques for quantitative characterization of sintering related features. Furthermore, to provide these techniques as automated analysis tools for LKAB to apply in internal research to develop a better understanding and control of sintering related phenomena and improve pellet strength and quality.
Proposed methods are optical microscopy as it is a robust, well established measurement technology well suited to the measurement of iron oxides, and X-ray tomography to address some of these needs as it offers the key benefit of non-destructive measurement and future speed improvements should significantly improve measurement times

A dispute over a parking spot outside a Vancouver Island Costco on Sunday led to one woman brandishing a machete.
It was 1 p.m. at the Langford big-box store and one driver was about to pull into a space near the tire shop when she was cut off by another female driver who whipped into the space. The two women started arguing over the parking stall when the driver who stole the space reached into her car and pulled out a machete, said West Shore RCMP spokeswoman Const. Nancy Saggar.

Woman brandishes machete in Costco parking spot dispute on Vancouver Island Back to video
The woman brandished the machete in a threatening manner so the other woman backed away and called police.
"We have since identified the suspect but have not yet located her. We are asking the suspect to come forward and present herself to police," Saggar said. "We know who you are, you know who you are, please turn yourself in. We would like to provide you with an opportunity to tell us what happened."
Saggar said anyone involved in a road-rage incident shouldn't engage with the other party. People should find a safe spot to pull over and call 911.

Last night we watched the most amazing comeback in major league playoff history when the Cardinal came back from down 6-0 early and 7-5 in the top of the ninth to win 9-7 over the Nationals. It was a game for the ages. Former catcher, who caught 218 games in the minor leagues before becoming a relief pitcher, the St. Louis closer Jason Mott retired the Nats in order in the bottom of the ninth for the win and Cards moved on to face the Giants in NLCS.
Yesterday morning the Instructs fan gang including Baseball Betsy and I watched at Ashburn Field another minor league catcher who has caught 169 games, Tim Kennelly, as he continues his work to make the same transition to a power arm reliever just like Jason Motte has done. In the final Instructs game of the season Kennelly came on in the sixth and seventh innings to show what probably was a mid to high 90's fastball just like Motte. TK racked up two strike outs, gave up one hit, no runs but he did walk one Blue Jays Instruct and hit another. But we could see the progress. He only pitched 8.2 innings this season with Reading and Clearwater striking out 11 in making his pitching debut after seven and half seasons in the Phillies system as a super sub playing every position except shortstop.
The 30 year old Mott turned to pitching about the same age as the 25 year old Kennelly and is now the closer for Cards. TK has similar stuff as Mott. When he was throwing his fastball down at the knees and on the corners of the plate he was unhittable yesterday. His off speed stuff is still a work in progress but it took Mott two years before he made it to the Bigs. In any event none of the hitters squared up TK yesterday and after finishing his two innings he receive a big hand shake from the Phillies minor league pitching coordinator Gorm Heimueller who was watching closely from behind the home plate screen.
Yesterday was the final game in the three week Instruct season. The Phillies went down 5-2 to the Blue Jays. The line up was loaded with mostly young players from the GCL, the Domincan and Venezuela Summer Leagues. Deiber Olivera was at second, Carlos Tocci DH, Samuel Hiciano in left, Freddy Zorrilla in right, Olvy Marte in center and Jose Mayorga catching. Of these guys only Olivera and Marte had base hits. Larry Greene was the second DH, and Zach Green at third were both held hitless. Chace Numata came on late in the game to catch and lined a base hit.
The hitting stars of the game were first baseman Cameron Perkins who squared up two line drive base hits up the middle and shortstop Angelo Mora. Mora doubled in his first at bat and batting left handed dropped the barrel of the bat on a pitch and drove it far and deep over the right field fence for a two run homer in his final at bat. Mora was one of the most impressive hitters at Instructs and is someone to watch next season probably playing second base at Lakewood. On the mound Kevin Walter started and pitched three innings giving up three runs on five hits. Jonathan Musser came on and pitched two innings giving up two runs on three hits. Kennelly pitched the 7th and 8th innings and Delvy Francisco who likely will close for Lakewood struck out the Blue Jays in the ninth getting earning a Heimueller handshake also as he the departed for the clubhouse.
As Instructs came to and end yesterday so did the baseball season at Clearwater. One diehard fan said pitchers and catchers report he estimates on February 16th and he can't wait. In the meantime GM Ruben Amaro Jr. and most of his assistants had moved on and we not seen at the game yesterday. One would expect they have moved on to scout the Arizona Fall League and the Venezuelan Winter League in preparation of the winter meetings in December.
It was an odd season. For the first time since the 2006 season no Phillies playoff games took place. Last night was strange not seeing the Phils in the NLDS. Clearly many holes remain to be filled on the major league roster but with likes of the players we saw in Instructs like outfielders, Larry Greene, Carlos Tocci and Dylan Cozens; a shortstop like Roman Quinn; a second baseman like Angelo Mora and with Tim Kennelly coming out of the bullpen hope springs eternal in a few years that some of these guys we saw in Instructs this year will be leading the Phillies back into the post season.

- frank zappa: son of orange county
(2016, cd, uk, laser media)
The album cover says "Radio Broadcast". Unfortunately, it doesn't really sound like that. Quite the opposite actually.
What's even worse is that there is a pauze of a couple of seconds between every two tracks. Very annoying.
The cover also says "Tom Waits" which is a bit misleading as the recording is from the early show that Zappa did in Boston on 1974/11/09. Tom Waits appeared as a special guest during the late show... There's no Tom Waits here.
Can it get worse?
Well, the back cover of the CD lists 10 tracks, while the CD has 12 tracks. They forgot to mention 'Dog Breath' and 'Building A Girl'.
And the same back cover also says "complete show" and that's not true either as 90 minute recordings of this concert exist and there's only some 80 minutes on this CD.
So if you want to spend 10 euro, be aware that you're doing it for the album cover only.
If you want to hear a complete (and better sounding) recording, check out the Zappateers website.

Home improvements can satisfy a variety of different desires for any homeowner, from the desire to improve a home's value, to a need for a more livable space, to a simple interest in seeing something new. No matter what, consider the tips below to help you get the most out of home improvement.
When trying to choose a project, consider whether you plan on selling or staying and then decide on how customized your project should be. The more individualized you make your renovation, the less likely it is that someone else will want to buy it for enough to cover the cost of the work.
As you take steps to improve your home, you can do things that not only improve your house but make it reflect your tastes. Make sure that you are adding your own personal touches to your home improvement projects.
If you are looking for a simple improvement to your home then head to the store and grab some paint. A fresh coat of paint can make a house feel brand new and requires minimal output in both cash and time. A fresh paint job can boost the appeal of your house to potential homebuyers, in case you are thinking of selling.
Turning off the water is important when you are working to improve your kitchen or bathroom. Before starting any home improvement project, know where the water shutoff valve is. Doing this will ensure that you don't accidentally flood your house.
Choosing to add insulation to your attic can be a smart move, especially in winter, as it saves on heating costs. Heat rises, and in the autumn and winter, you lose heat if you have poor insulation, especially in your attic. You should be able to find quality insulation in most hardware stores and installing it yourself should not be too hard.
It's very easy to dress pillows for a teenager's room. Reuse old clothing by cutting it into pillow-sized squares, then turn them into pillows. This projects adds a personal touch to any teen's room without too much expense.
If you are thinking about replacing a lock, you should know that you can either replace the cylinder or the whole assembly. The cylinder represents the portion of the lock responsible for activating the lock. If you misplace your key, you can replace the cylinder. If you are adding a lock and there is one there already, you should replace the whole thing.
Keep records of everything you are having done if you have decided to hire a contractor to do your home improvement tasks. Avoid thinking the contractor will do that for you. Save all invoices and contracts for your projects. Your paperwork file should help prevent misunderstandings with a contractor by providing details about costs, expectations and the time frame for the performance of your home improvements.
Home improvement is no longer something that only professionals can do. There is something to do for everyone. No matter what the extent of your improvement is, you can make a home more comfortable and worth more by doing improvement. Begin with the advice in this article, then make your way to your home improvement store to begin.

The history of glass art in Japan is a relatively youthful one. Yet this reality is hardly a bane but a blessing, for glass artists are not shackled by the constrictions imposed on their creativity by the towering ghosts of tradition. In this sense, the creativity of Kyoto artist Niyoko Ikuta (1953- ) flows freely into her spiralling sheets of glass. Considered to be one of the leading figures in Japanese glass art, Ikuta has enraptured collectors and museums the world over for her dynamic glass objects, executed with emphatic lyricism and spellbinding precision. The artist's glass works have been collected by leading public institutions such as the V&A in London, the Musée de design et d'arts appliqués contemporains (MUDAC) in Switzerland, the Badisches Landesmuseum Karlsruhe in Germany, as well as the National Museum of Art in Osaka and the National Museum of Modern Art in Tokyo, and her works continue to inspire a generation of younger artists in the increasingly popular world of glass.

So where, we wonder, does the fairy tale of Satnam Singh Bhamara end?

Upon my return from the UK, I had planned to visit Myanmar before Ramadhan. I knew I would still suffer from jetlag but due to the shortage of time I had to make the trip anyhow. My dear wife had to do the packing again as she has been doing for the past forty over years. This time it was worst for her as she was still trying to recover from the jetlag and was suffering from a bad case of flu and allergies, due to the high pollen count in UK with the blooming of the flowers. On top of that had a lingering cough. However she dutifully and faithfully did my packing to make sure everything I needed was included. My visit to Myanmar was made possible with the assistance and cooperation especially by the Ambassador and his staff at the Malaysian Embassy in Yangoon who facilitated all my meetings there. I started my journey at eight in the morning from my house to KL Sentral to catch an ERL train to KLIA. The MAS flight was at 12pm. My programme was supposed to start in Nay Pi Taw, the capital of Myanmar, which is about 450km from Yangoon, which meant I had to change to a domestic flight from there. The programme fixed were very tight, with meeting relevant government Ministers and to finally end in Sittwee in the Rakhine state.
Everything was well organised with one important caveat, however, that with Myanmar things can change at the last minute. I had a lot of important messages to pass to them on the crisis of the boat people, human trafficking and the status of human trafficking. As I expected, my trip to Rakhine was cancelled at the last minute on the grounds of security and local sensitivity. It seemed a day before that there was demonstration against the government for allowing the boat people to land. I could not accept the logic of it as they had allowed a UN delegation under Nambiar and a Norwegian delegation to visit Sittwee. Anyway, I considered the number of demonstrators small, which could have been easily controlled by the government. I expressed my displeasure at their refusal for me to visit the Rakhine State to the Minister in the President's Office, FM and Deputy Minister of Religious Affairs. But I sent HUMANiTi to visit Sittwee to distribute food to the IDPs.
Albeit with the setbacks, the visit and the discussions were productive and constructive. I found there had been some change in attitude of the government leaders. They took the trouble to explain the various actions they were taking to improve the situation of the Bengalees or Rohingya, denying the allegations of the international community. They also showed what they have done for the development projects of the Muslim community. The FM together with very senior officials of the Foreign Ministry gave me and my delegation a very detailed briefings on all actions they have taken in an 1 1/2 hour session as well as what's happening on the ground in Rakhine. I explained the OIC also faced pressure from MEMBER STATES to do something. Thus, we have to make our voices louder and clearer. I emphasized that this is no longer an internal issue of Myanmar but of the region and international community. My own conclusion from the visit is ASEAN has to take the lead. For me this is the best opportunity for Malaysia as the Chairman of ASEAN and non permanent member of SC to show her leadership on the persecution and humanitarian issues of the Rohingya boat people.
The root causes amongst others is the human rights abuses which left no choice but to seek assylum elsewhere. I left Nay Pi Taw with a statement that I will come back to pursue the issues of the Rohingya. I took an Apex flight to Yangoon that took fifty minutes and stayed at the VIP lounge to catch a MAS flight at twelve noon for KL. Myanmar is rich in all kinds of natural resources and it has also good potential human resources. A lot of developments are being undertaken there and foreign investors are all excited on the opportunities to make handsome profits but I hope and pray that they don't forget on what is happening to the Rakhine Rohingya and the Muslims in Myanmar who are being persecuted.

January 7, 2016 — Roxwood Medical Inc. reported that more than 500 patients have been successfully treated as part of the initial limited release of its MicroCross Catheter, the latest addition to Roxwood Medical's expanding product line. The MicroCross Catheter is U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-cleared and offered in two sizes (Micro14 and Micro18) for use in the coronary and peripheral vasculatures, providing enhanced guidewire support through challenging and tortuous anatomy.
Compatible with Roxwood Medical's CenterCross Catheter, MicroCross is comprised of an ultra-low profile shaft featuring variable pitch braid technology and a state-of-the-art lubricious coating. These features allow for enhanced trackability and guidewire support while navigating tortuous regions of the coronary and peripheral vasculature.
"I have been impressed with the performance of the catheter in my early experience," stated Jeff Moses, M.D., of Columbia University Medical Center. "The increased complexity of our treatment approach for coronary occlusions puts a lot of demand on the tools we use. The low profile and trackability of Micro14 provides an exciting new tool for us to access and cross these highly complex lesions."
"Since first using the Micro14 and Micro18, we continue to be struck by the performance of the catheters, which have quickly become an essential part of our Critical Limb Ischemia toolkit," said Fadi Saab, M.D., of Metro Heart Hospital, Wyoming, Mich. "These are now our frontline tools to navigate across difficult lower extremity blockages, leading to effective treatment of our patients' severe peripheral arterial disease (PAD)."

As an archipelago comprised of over 7,000 islands during high tide, the Philippines has always been poised for multiculturalism and traveling.
Over the years, the Philippines has become a key exporter of migrant workers, making the Filipino community an integral part of many cities around the globe.
As a result, the Philippines is the third top remittance receiving country in the world.
Remittances and the Philippines
Currently, more than 10 million Filipinos are living as expats—a sum equal to 10% of the country's population.
Remittances in the Philippines are overseen by the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (Philippines Central Bank, BSP). In 2017, they registered an inflow of USD$32,808 million, which translates to 10.5% of the Gross Domestic Product (GDP).
According to the BSP, overseas Filipino workers (OFWs)support their families mainly from the United States (9.4 million), the United Arab Emirates (2.54 million) and Saudi Arabia (2.5 million), a trend that's been around since the dawn of modern migration.
The Migration History of the Philippines
Immigration started strong in the 20th century following the Spanish-American war, which resulted in the Philippines becoming a US territory.
Soon after, many Filipinos migrated to Pacific states like Hawaii to work at sugarcane and pineapple plantations.
It's estimated that Hawaii received around 120,000 Filipino workers between 1906 and 1934.
Thanks to an overseas employment program launched by the government in the 1970s, the doors opened up for Filipinos to work in the Middle East, especially in member countries of the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC).
Canada, Australia and New Zealand were also popular destinations at the time.
The Philippines Today
Today, guaranteeing the safety and well-being of OFWs is the main challenge, but migration hasn't halted one bit.
In fact, the Philippines saw great economic stability during the 2000s despite the global crisis and political turmoil within the country. The gross domestic product (GDP) increased yearly by an average of 6% from 2011 to 2016.
However, the immigration flow remained unchanged, with 64% of migrant workers settling in the Middle East and another 25% finding jobs in Asia.
Since 1992, Filipino women have been taking center stage thanks to the demand for domestic workers. Today, only 38% of new hires go into the sector, signifying a broadening of job opportunities and a hopeful dawn for high-skilled job opportunities.
Ria and the Filipino Community
Since our arrival in the Philippines, we have made sure not only to speak the same language as our customers, but the right dialects as well.
Our core values resonate with the Filipino community who is thankful for our service, one which allows them to show their love for their families.
Just this month, our European team was honored by the Samahang Ilokano International Spain Chapter 04303 in Madrid, a Philippine association seeking to help fellow Filipino immigrants settle in their new countries.
The association presented us with a certificate of appreciation for our "continued support and leadership" at their 10-year anniversary celebration on November 18.
We used the opportunity to remind members and inform newcomers about the power of remittances and how we can help them be there for their loved ones.
Sending money home is a delicate and important business, making it imperative for senders and beneficiaries to feel they can trust the money transfer service provider.
At Ria, we believe the only way to foster that sense of security is through taking the time to connect with our customers, their families and their communities.
This post is part of our History of Remittances series. Previous posts include the remittance history of Malaysia and Morocco.

Argan oil on the skin
13 Mai
Argan oil is made from the kernels of the argan tree fruit that grows almost exclusively in Morocco. This oil is one of the rarest in the world due to the small supply and the limited growing area – hence the high price and the hype. Traditionally, the oil is produced by hand. First the soft pulp is stripped from the nuts, which are then laid out in the sun to dry. Stones are used to crack open the dried nuts so the seeds can be removed. Next, they're gently roasted to give the oil a rich, nutty flavor. A little water is added to the roasted seeds and they are ground into a thick paste which is squeezed by hand to extract the oil.
Chemically speaking, argan oil consists of a blend of fatty acids (over 70% oleic and linoleic acids.) It is also rich in vitamin E, phenols, and carotenes. Historically, argan oil has been used in cooking, but since it's so rich in essential fatty acids it has been found to be beneficial for hair and skin.
What are the benefits? The fatty acids in Moroccan oil make it an excellent moisturizer. It can improve the appearance of dry hair and skin and add shine to hair. In fact, there has been some research that indicates that argan oil may be a treatment for psoriasis (more research needs to be conducted though).

The word RENAL refers to the kidney itself and is a synonym for the kidney. The word MASS is vague and interchangeable with the words lesion, tumor or neoplasm (meaning new growth in Latin). So a renal mass is a lesion that arises from the kidney which could be many things including cancer. Generally, masses are divided into cancer or non-cancer (benign). An example of a benign tumor is an angiomyolipoma. This is a tumor that may grow locally but is not cancer. It is more common in women; a tumor can be at risk of bleeding if it grows past 4 cm.

"Are you sure this is gonna work?" Maple and I were hanging out in my room this morning. He had come up with a plan to get Clover to be friends with Tulip, and I wasn't entirely convinced it would work.
"Of course it'll work. It's impossible to hate anyone at a festival." He said like it was the most obvious thing in the world.
"I hope you're right. Things are getting kinda tense around here."
"I'm always right." He fake scoffed. "Get dressed, we're leaving soon." He sprung off my bed and left.
That guy really was something.
"So, whose ready for some festival fun?" Maple cheered. Clover groaned from the backseat and Tulip and cheered too.
"This'll be fun." Tulip told Clover.
When we got there, Maple went to park and left me alone with both of the girls.
"So, what're we gonna do first?" The festival was practically empty, so we pretty much had the place to ourselves.
"How about a water balloon fight?" I offered. Even though it was winter, Maple said this would be a good idea and I trusted him.
"I call River for my team." Clover insisted.
"How about guys against girls? It'll be interesting."
"I'm down with that." Tulip smiled at her and she rolled her eyes.
"You boys ready to get slain?" Tulip trash talked from the other side of the arena.
"Yea right! We're gonna kick your asses!" Maple shouted back. I think they liked trash talking more than they did actually playing.
"Let's just get this over with." Clover complained.
I made a silly face at Clover to try and get her out of her foul mood. She laughed at me, and made a face back. Maybe this plan might actually work.
"Ahh!" Tulip took the first hit of the night. "Get him Clover!" She shouted.
Clover nodded and picked up a water balloon and faced me. Uh oh.
Luckily, I was able to dodge it.
"Rats! Get Maple!" Clover shouted at Tulip. They were actually working as a team.
The game was pretty intense, but we totally beat the girls team. They were soaked, and we were just damp. It was pretty awesome.
"You guys cheated!" Tulip accused.
"Nah. We're just good." Maple laughed and I gave him a high five. She pouted and pulled herself off the ground.
"Screw them, we did awesome." Clover hugged Tulip, and Maple glanced at me and smirked.
"Yea we did." They laughed.
"Hey girls, you guys wanna go to Hogan's?" I offered.
"Sounds awesome." Clover replied and ran over to me.
"Oh hey River, funny seeing you here!" A familiar voice said from behind us.
"Hey Gardenia, how is everything?"
"Everything is great! I wanted to thank you again for the other day, you did a great job." She remarked, and Clover grabbed onto my arm protectively.
"River, who is this?"
"I'm Gardenia Rico, nice to meet you." She scoffed.
"What did you do for her?" Clover ignored her and spoke to me instead.
"Just an odd job at her house, why?"
"Are you sleeping with her?" She accused.
"Babe, of course not."
"Oh, so this is your girlfriend. Nice to meet you." Gardenia said in a very condescending tone.
"You're a bitch."
"You're the one making something out of nothing!" I wanted to stop them but I didn't know if that would make it worse or not.
"How do I know you're not sleeping with him?" She screamed. I'm glad everyone else at the festival had left.
"Um, maybe you should trust you're boyfriend a little more, Sweetie."
"Don't tell me what to do!"
"Look, all I wanted to do was thank him for his work. You're fucking crazy." Gardenia scowled at her.
"Yea right, you probably want to steal him away from me." Clover was getting angrier by the second and it was starting to scare me.
"Yea, no thanks." She retched and turned to me. "No offense, you're not really my type. This is bullshit so I'm gonna go, thanks again River."
"No problem."
"Don't come back." Clover growled.
"I won't if you're around." She laughed and left the park.
"So, we're going to Hogan's right?" Clover asked happily.
"Uh, yea. C'mon guys, I'll drive." I called out to Maple and Tulip who were leaning against the ice rink.
The fight at the festival was completely forgotten by all but me once we got to the diner. Something about that gave me the chills whenever I thought about it.
"Hey Tulip, what's up?" She was outside looking through the telescope in broad daylight.
"Nothing really, why?"
"Well, Clover's busy today, and I was wondering if you wanted to hang."
"Will she be okay with that?" She pulled away from the telescope and gave me a quizzical look.
"Yea, you guys are cool now, right?"
"Let me grab my purse." She laughed and took off into the house.
"So where're we going?" She asked as I drove my truck down the street.
"Anywhere you want."
"Anywhere?" She giggled, and I rose an eyebrow and glanced at her.
"Yes, but then we do what I want later."
"Okay. Make a left here."
"What is it supposed to be?" I asked her a few minutes after we got to the art museum.
She sighed and responded with "River, it's abstract. It's not supposed to be anything."
"I really don't understand art." I shook my head.
"I do, and this is awful. Everything in this place is awful. Look around." She spun around in a circle with her arms outstretched.
"I mean look at that, that's a chair! That doesn't deserve to be in a museum. This is bullshit." She pouted.
"We can go now. This was a bad idea." We both started laughing, drawing the attention of an older couple on the other side of the room.
"Come on, lets go get some food."
"That was fun, River. But we never did what you wanted to do." Tulip and I had just gotten home from dinner, and now we were hanging out in the back of my truck.
"This is what I wanted to do. The sky is so pretty at night." I said quietly.
"It is." She changed positions, and now she was lying right next to me. "Do you ever wonder what else is out there?"
"You mean in space?"
"No, in the world. All we know is Sunset Valley. But are there other places out there? Or is this all there is?" She asked, her voice light and airy.
"I don't know." I whispered back.
"Wouldn't that be cool? Like, different places to see and visit. You'd never know what you'll find next. Like a movie or a video game."
"There could be, Tulip. We don't know. Maybe we should try and find out."
"What do you mean? Like an adventure?" She beamed.
"I'd really like that." She intertwined her fingers with mine. I didn't even mind.
"Me too."
"What about Clover?"
"She could come with us. Maple too." I offered, and she frowned. "What?"
"Nothing." She sighed and looked away.
"No, what's wrong."
"It's nothing, I promise." She caressed my hand with her thumb, and I believed her.
"It's getting late, we should go to bed." I offered. She nodded, and I helped her out of the truck bed.
"Night River." She whisper-yelled in the hallway outside my bedroom.
"Night Tulip." I replied in the same tone. We both laughed quietly and headed to our respective rooms. I really liked spending time with her.
"How was you're day yesterday babe?" Clover was having a good day today and I was avoiding anything that would set her off.
"It was good, I missed you though. How was your day?"
"It was boring. I had to do some articles at work. I missed you too." She looked up from her book and grinned at me.
"Well you don't have to work today. What do you want to do?"
"Maybe we could-" She started to say but was interrupted by Maple frantically entering the house.
"River, put on channel seven, now" He demanded, out of breath.
"What's going on?" His panicking was worrying me.
"Just do it, please."
I turned off the video game system and put on the channel.

A recent Study Published in JAMA of digital media use and ADHD symptoms is yet another example of how our increased screen time and use of social media is not necessarily doing our young adults and adolescents any favors.
This study conducted over two years in Los Angeles county followed 10th graders (15 & 16 year olds) to see what, if any, changes occurred in their attention, focus, and level of impulsivity. Using an ADHD self-reporting questionnaire/scale, approximately 10% of the subjects who frequently did all the online activities (14) in the study had reduced attention, focus and increased impulsivity. Even those who frequently did only 7 of the activities had an increase in these symptoms. In contrast, only 4.6 percent of the kids who didn't do any of the digital activities frequently showed an increase in ADHD symptoms.
Researchers highlight that these results do not suggest that digital media use causes ADHD. But it is not taking too far a leap to suggest that learning to manage the type of activities and time spent online would serve our next generation well.
To that end, health care professionals can help by encouraging a Family Media Plan provided by the American Academy of Pediatrics.

It would be nice to focus on making Castro Street safe and enjoyable for human beings. Making it into more of a "promenade" with wider sidewalks/bike lanes, or even restricting car access entirely, would be a great start.

When they close Castro at the tracks will they tear down the new train station bldg?

Downtown is woefully short on parking now, and it is certain to get worse in the future. The proposed hotel at Hope and Evelyn would be an awful impact on traffic, and as it would cover part of the parking lot, would forever foreclose the possibility of a parking garage on the site (right next to the transit center).
No new offices please! I do think more housing is needed close to downtown and close to transit, but adequate parking must be provided. I'm sure that developers will still be able to turn a profit.

Reading between the lines of both the article and the comments, it appears to me that the city needs to start by making a firm and binding decision between
* a small, low rise downtown bounded by Bryant St, Mercy St, Hope St and Evelyn Ave with low density housing flanking it on the Bryant and Hope sides; or
* a larger, high rise downtown bounded by Shoreline, El Camino Real, Calderon and the railroad tracks, and with high density housing integrated with office, retail, restaurant and other businesses.
In my opinion, the existing high-rise buildings downtown (between Mercy St and California St on Castro St, and at the corner of Villa St and Bryant St), mean it's too late for small and low rise. The three high rise buildings I cited are by no means the only buildings taller than 3 stories in downtown Mountain View, but if we fight tooth and nail to prevent any more buildings taller than 3 stories high, we will cut off the growth of downtown Mountain View and maintain a semblance of a small, low rise downtown. Traffic conditions will be much like today because the number of people circulating in the downtown area will be much like today.
At the other extreme, if we encourage a large, high-rise downtown, comparable to San Antonio Road between El Camino Real and California St, then the ultimate population of downtown Mountain View will be much larger than today, while the business offerings in downtown will be much more varied and extensive. In such a downtown, most transit will be on foot or via small, autonomous shuttles. I believe the traffic conditions, though very different, will be no worse than today, keeping in mind that most private cars will be parked in high-rise parking garages, rather than moving around from venue to venue.
I cannot think of any middle ground that will be satisfactory, but lack of consistent guidance from the city will eventually lead to some middle ground I do not want to think of.

I wish we'd reconsider the closure of Castro at Central with hard barriers, because Castro becomes Moffett and Moffett feeds the freeway.
I'd much prefer Castro was closed at Central during daylight/business hours, but open in the wee hours of night/morning so that patrons of clubs can make an orderly exit to the freeway and commuters who have to leave early can also get at the freeway. Then shut it down during prescribed daytime/evening hours for foot traffic, diners, and the like.
Oh, and the police station being located in between Castro and Shoreline, I'd like for them to have access to both routes. Fire trucks and ambulances from outlying stations as well. The picture of an ambulance from El Camino Hospital going down Shoreline, making a right on Villa, and hitting the four-way stop at the Tied House/Steins while people jaywalk isn't a great mental image.

Every time an article on this gets published, there are comments pointing out obvious points of contention: need for parking, need for housing, no need for offices or hotels.
And every time some know-it-all says, too bad it's already done and decided like there's no point even discussing it.
Look at the hsr project, it's never too late to change direction. State laws concerning housing projects and changing needs of the community should affect huge projects like this.

I agree strongly with "A Talking Cat" regarding a study to determine the viability of making the first few blocks of Castro into a "promenade" for pedestrians and bikes. With no auto access from Castro to Central Expwy (a move of which I strongly approve) and the plans for the pedestrian/bicycle underpass under Central and the railroad tracks, it would be a great time to close off those first few blocks of Castro to auto traffic.

Was downtown Thursday night around 6p. Parking near Villa was bad and the garage at Bryant and Villa was full as were nearby lots and street parking, but the garage at Bryant and California had lots of spaces. I've generally had good luck at that garage. I don't think that garage has sensors on it to tell you how many free spaces there are. Perhaps that's needed there as well as some way to direct traffic to that parking lot. In France I've seen cities where electronic street signage directs drivers towards parking lots letting them know how many spaces there are available.
I've never seen it, but I bet you could develop sensors for parking lots (not garages) that are discreet and then have signage for number of open spaces. Never seen that before so don't know if anyone sells that solution.
In any case, could be that we're not making the best use of the parking that we have.
a resident of Old Mountain View
on Mar 10, 2019 at 9:38 am
Steve - I like those parking garage sensors, and maybe they could be used on surface lots. But looking just a little bit into the future, I see some real problems with downtown congestion and parking. I do think closing Castro at the tracks is the only good solution to the problems that would be caused by Caltrain electrification and increasingly frequent trains, but the result will be poorer traffic flow downtown. Add to that the effect of the hotel, add to that new office space, add to that population increase in MV including potentially 9000+ new units in North Bayshore. A new parking garage will be needed not too far in the future. If the downtown experience is going to be a good one, let's not add office space. Considering traffic flow, maybe turning Castro into a promenade isn't such a good idea (although at first it might seem like a nice thought).

The hotel project on downtown's Lot 4 includes a net gain of more than 70 full time public parking spaces.
a resident of Another Mountain View Neighborhood

Does that net gain of 70 parking spaces take into account a brand new hotel (workers and guests? or will they all take VTA and Cal Train transportation to the hotel?) and 2 new commercial buildings. I'm going to go out on a limb and state the demand for new parking will exceed the newly available spots by hundreds.

Any updates re MVCC plans re; RV's?
Even Berkeley says no more overnight parking for homeless RV dwellers
Berkeley city council members voted 6-3 to prohibit people from sleeping in RVs on city streets
"BERKELEY — Though known for its progressive, anti-capitalist bent, this city is obliging business owners and some residents by banning overnight RV parking, effectively giving the boot to droves of homeless people living in the vehicles so customers won't have to pass them on the way to their yoga classes, pottery studios and craft breweries."
"By the end of the month, "parking oversize vehicles, including campers and RVs" will be prohibited on city streets from 2 to 5 a.m., according to a resolution the Berkeley City Council approved on a 6-3 vote Feb. 28 in response to complaints from west side business owners about an influx of nomadic dwellers in the area. If the council adopts the resolution at its March 26 meeting, the ban will take effect immediately."
"This ban is totally appropriate. The author totally misrepresents this issue with a very limited understanding of how this situation evolved. It's easy to make funny quips about craft brewers and lattes but those of us who live and work in West Berkeley, hard working regular folks who have jobs and are invested in the community have been overwhelmed by this influx of RV's and encampments. over the last year and the City of Berkeley itself created the problem."
"Let me give you some background on the situation which is not mentioned in this article. For some reason In February of 2018 the City of Berkeley stopped enforcing the 72 hour rule of no parking in the Marina area. Normally an RV would park out there and after 3 days the Berkeley police we leave a warning they would have to leave. By July of last year there were more than 100 RV's in the marina next to the Double Tree Hotel. A group came to the city indicating that they were in violation of a state charter that bans overnight camping or living in the marina. The city would have then faced a lawsuit and, as a result evicted the RV's. Almost immediately they moved to West Berkeley impacting block upon block of areas where working people live and have businesses. For whatever reason these people made a choice to live in RV's."

All I could capture were the clouds. But, I promise you, the seagulls were there. They were beautiful. And now, what's left for me, is to try to use words to paint the picture my camera could not grasp. Like emotions, like the passage of time, like the sensation of a kiss. Writing is like trying to photograph seagulls. Even if all you wind up with is a bright, blue sky, the effort is entirely worth it.

Published April 14th 2014 by Entangled: Bliss
Country veterinarian Celia Gamble is in trouble. A misunderstanding from her past is rearing its ugly head and the only person she can turn to is Jonah Clarke—her family's lawyer and, as it turns out, her brother Zach's best friend and her childhood crush. She always wanted Jonah to see her as a bona fide woman, but as a woman who's being wrongfully blackmailed for seducing a married man? Not on her life.
Jonah is happy to help little CeeCee Gamble, if only she'd come clean about why she's being blackmailed. But with Zach's wedding on the horizon and Zach's fashionista fiancée Desiree giving CeeCee a makeover, the little duckling Jonah remembers is turning into a definite swan. And the unwritten law on sisters is clear—hands off. Jonah must resist Celia or lose the only true
family he's ever known.
Birth Order and Personality
I'm a first-born. According to birth order studies, I should be:
· Reliable and conscientious
· Structured
· Cautious
· Controlling
· Achievement-oriented
This amuses me because unless there's a definition for reliable and conscientious that includes usually late, this is not me. However, if cautious also means paralyzed by anxiety and achievement-oriented stretches to a border-collie-like tendency to keep going when it might be smarter to spend a weekend watching Friends reruns, then I'm in.
Middle children, they say, tend to be:
· People-pleasers
· Somewhat rebellious
· Peacemakers
· Socially gregarious
In my latest release, RESISTING THE RANCHER we get to know the Gamble family of Lutherton, Montana, who are adjusting to the tragic loss of their middle son. Without Cale's peacemaking presence, oldest son Zach and youngest daughter Celia have to create a new family dynamic before they can move forward with their lives.
Youngest kids, like Celia Gamble, are usually:
· Fun-loving
· Uncomplicated
· Manipulative
· Outgoing
· Attention-seeking
· Self-centered
In HIS RELUCTANT RANCHER, we get a glimpse of Celia's self-centeredness. But in RESISTING THE RANCHER, we finally see her fun-loving and outgoing side. She's also a tomboy who can handle 1000-lb steers without batting an eye and who will rescue every stray dog and cat that comes her way, but is terrified of her feelings for her big brother's best friend.
Of course, I didn't create Celia Gamble with birth order traits in mind; she's certainly not uncomplicated, for instance. But then, I think we're all complicated. That's what makes people so interesting!
What aspects of your personality align with your birth order? What about your siblings?
It looks like I started this series at the tail end. (Celia's a vet, get it!) I think, for Celia, this might have been a good thing, because I didn't come in with any preconceived notions. I came in as an unbiased observer, who quickly joined camp Cee-cee. She's a vet, I'm an animal activist. That's all I needed. Then I got into her backstory and her hidden feelings for Jonah. I got a girl crush.
Then I met Jonah, and oh, my sweet lord, he was sooooo yummy and soooo conflicted. Bless his little misguided heart. But men will be men, and Jonah is all man. As I reached the end of their first real date, I started getting a feeling of deja vu and a vague song began playing in the back of my mind. By the end of that scene, the song was blaring as loudly as any marching band.
This video just captures that moment perfectly. You want an excerpt of Celia's and Jonah's kiss, watch Glorianna's Kissed You and lose your heart.
That captured the tone of Resisting the Rancher. It was sweet, emotional, and tearful at times. It was also funny, heartwarming and left a smile on my face and a longing for more in my heart. I look forward to catching up to the rest of the gang and I loved meeting them in Resisting the Rancher, although I KNOW that Zach's story is going to break my heart. This group of rancher's and their loves have a new fan and I am just tickled to death about it. Job very well done Roxanne, brava.
