Frequently Asked Questions on the CSO Engagement in FDS and FDS Plus:
Updated September 13, 2012
Q: What is the DSWD-CSO Engagement?
A: The DSWD recognizes the vital role of Civil Society Organizations (CSOs), People's Organizations (POs), non-government organizations and people's organizations as partners of government in addressing the needs of the disadvantaged poor household beneficiaries of Pantawid Pamilyang Pilipino Program, through continuing partnership and complementation of resources and services. Thus, to better implement the Program and to utilize the resources and manpower of CSOs, the DSWD opened the conduct of FDS and FDS Plus to the CSOs.
Q: What is FDS?
A: The Family Development Session (FDS) serves as a venue where topics on effective parenting, husband and wife relationships, child development, laws affecting the Filipino family, gender and development and home management are being discussed. Through the FDS, parents are also informed of their rights as individuals as well as their obligations that they need to fulfil not only as husband and wife but also as parents. Attendance in the FDS is part of the conditionalities of the program to receive cash grants.
There are three modules in conducting the FDS, namely: (1) Paglalatag ng Pundasyon ng Programang Pantawid Pamilya, (2) Paghahanda at Pangangalaga ng Pamilyang Pilipino, and (3) Partisipasyon ng Pamilyang Pilipino sa Gawaing Pang Komunidad.
Q: What is FDS Plus?
A: The FDS enables the households become socially aware, be involved and participate in community development activities, on the other hand, the FDS Plus was conceptualized to include a range of initiatives complementary to that of the FDS but was not included as conditions of the program. Currently, there are three types of FDS Plus. The activities shall promote, develop and target participants to attain concrete and tangible output after active participation in lecture series and interactive demonstrations.
Q: What is the duration of the project?
A: The CSO Engagement in FDS and FDS Plus lasts for one year with a probationary period on the first three months or until December 2012. For this Call for Proposals and Selection, the CSOs will be engaged from September 2012 to August 2013 or as applicable. In order to continue with the one year engagement, the selected CSOs must pass the monitoring and evaluation for the probation period.
Q: Who are eligible to participate?
A: The invitation is open to all CSOs, with solid experience in implementing community development activities. Related documents (application form, terms of reference, eligibility requirement documents, and other templates) essential for the preparation and submission of project proposals are available at the Pantawid Pamilya – National Project Management Office and Field Offices. Interested CSOs are encouraged to coordinate with the Pantawid Pamilya Provincial Operations Office (POO) and/or Regional Program Management Office (RPMO) while crafting/revising the proposal for technical assistance in terms of schedules and geographical selection of targets. For any questions or clarifications, interested CSOs may contact the Institutional Partnership Division at 02-9516827 or visit any DSWD Field Office
Q: How many CSOs can participate in each region?
A: There is no limit in the number of CSOs per region. The DSWD will engage CSOs as long as there is no overlapping in the areas where the FDS/FDS Plus will be conducted and as long as the budget of their project proposal falls within the given limit per region.
Q: In what areas can we participate?
A: All DSWD Field Offices will be accepting proposals but areas for engagement should be coordinated with the Provincial Link/SWO-III for each province in each Field Office. The Provincial Link/SWO-III will assist the CSO in identifying the areas where the CSO may conduct the FDS/FDS Plus.
Q: What are the types of activities that can be proposed for this engagement?
A: There are two main types of activities that can be proposed for this engagement: FDS and FDS Plus. For FDS, the three modules are: (1) Paglalatag ng Pundasyon ng Programang Pantawid Pamilya, (2) Paghahanda at Pangangalaga ng Pamilyang Pilipino, and (3) Partisipasyon ng Pamilyang Pilipino sa Gawaing Pang Komunidad. For FDS plus, the topics are: (1) Functional Literacy and Numeracy; (2) Livelihood Promotion Mentoring and Referral program; and (3) Promotion of Collective Action. For FDS Plus, the CSOs may propose other development themes but such must be coordinated with the Regional Program Management Office (RPMO).
Q: Should there be a counterpart fund provided by the CSOs? How much? What does this counterpart comprise of?
A: Yes. The COA Memorandum Circular 2007-001 stipulates that CSOs that wish to engage in any partnership with funding with any government agency must have a counterpart that is 20% of the total project cost must be shouldered by the CSO. The equity or counterpart may be in the form of: labor, land for the project site, facilities, equipment and the like. For this particular engagement, salary for the staff and honorarium for resource persons are deemed to be included in the 20% counterpart. For example, if the total project cost for one whole year is P100,000.00, P20,000.00 should be the amount of the counterpart.
Q: How will be the CSOs selected?
A: There are four main stages of the selection process: (a) eligibility validation; (b) profile and project experience assessment; (c) technical proposal assessment; and (d) financial counterpart assessment. The CSOs must pass all the four assessments in order to qualify.
Q: How are the CSOs being assessed in the Eligibility Validation?
A: CSOs that submitted all the required documents with the proper signature/stamp/authorization are considered to pass the eligibility validation; otherwise, failure to submit just one of the required documents or missing a required signature in any of the required documents will make the CSO fail the eligibility validation stage.
Q: How are CSOs being assessed in the profile and project experience?
A: In order to pass this stage of the selection process, the CSO must meet the two minimum project experiences. The two minimum requirements are: (a) one year of experience in community development; and (b) DSWD-trained in the conduct of FDS or conducting FDS for at least one month.
Q: How will the CSOs be assessed in the technical proposal assessment?
A: The basis in this assessment is the project proposal submitted by the CSO. The project proposals will be evaluated based on two criteria: technical plan and staff experience. Under Technical Plan, the following are being assessed: clarity of project objectives, target beneficiaries, appropriateness (FDS)/soundness (FDS Plus) of proposed interventions and feasibility of implementation timeline. For Staff Experience, the following are being assessed: education, training and work experience.
Q: How will the CSOs be assessed in the financial counterpart assessment?
A: The CSO will be assessed based on their ability to provide the financial counterpart equivalent to 20% of the total project cost and the existence of such statement in their proposals.
Q: How will the CSOs know if they are accepted for the engagement?
A: The CSOs will receive a letter from the Field Offices if they are accepted. They can also follow-up the status of their application thru the Pantawid Pamilya - RPMO.
Q: Where can the CSOs appeal?
A: CSOs can appeal their application to the Regional Selection Committee for each Field Office. They should address it to the Chairperson – Deputy Program Manager for Pantawid Pamilya—and seek the assistance of the Secretariat—Regional Project Coordinator or Institutional Partnership and Development Officers—in communicating their appeal.
Q: We are a faith-based organization; can we use our national chapter's documents for this engagement?
A: Yes. The CSO may use their national chapter's documents for this engagement provided they can provide a letter from their national chapter allowing them to use such documents for this particular engagement. The letter must be specific and not general in terms of the use of the documents and must be signed by the national president.
Q: We are a faith-based organization under a national umbrella/chapter and we have a different name from our national umbrella/chapter, can we use the documents of our national chapter?
A: No. The CSO cannot use the documents of the national chapter when such has a different name because there will be a confusion as to its identity. The CSO may ask the national chapter to submit the documents instead.
Q: We are a regional/provincial chapter of our national organization but we used our national chapter's documents for this engagement, who will sign the MOA—the regional/provincial chapter or our national organization? Where will the MOA Signing be held—in the region or in the Central Office?
A: All MOA Signing will be held in the regional offices regardless of the nature of the CSOs that will sign. No MOA Signing shall be held in the Central Office. The national chapter will sign the MOA since it was their documents that were the basis of the regional/provincial CSO's eligibility.

Who's qualified for dispensing medication to assisted living patients?
Who's qualified for dispensing medication to assisted living patients? My mother is in an assisted living facility. There is a student nurse in charge over the weekend. Nurses' aides and healthcare technicians who have only completed one four-to-eight hour course are allowed to pass out medications. This concerns me -- are they properly qualified?
Expert Answers
CNA 's should not give any medications to the patient , yet, if certified they can assist the patient in self administering the medication. Even when certified, the medication should be pre-measured and given to them by a nurse or doctor. This sounds like the situation you have described and is OK.
Medical Assistants, who have more educaiotn than the CNA, can give shots under supervision of an on-duty doctor. An IV may only be administered by a nurse or a doctor.
Community Answers
In my opinion, CNAs should not even be touching medications. But that's healthcare in America; They are phasing out LPNs and using CNAs to function as nurses if they get "certified". They can now provide cheaper hired help. That means even high school drop outs can now become nurses. All I can say if you have a loved one in a nursing home, God help them. https://www.ncsbn.org/1725.htm
imo too, CNA's should not be touching the medicine. Theft of narcotics by CNA's....CNA's have very little invested into thier careers, maybe that's why. i have an abusive drug addict neighbor CNA that works at a nursing home, and have known others like that. Pretty good at keeping thier job=narcotics.
Assisted Living (AL) residents are considered medically stable. In an AL this is their home and they are assisted with the activities of daily living. Caregivers or CNA's with the proper training to become Medication Aids can safely and effectively give medications or oversee that the proper medication is administered. These Medication Aids's are still under the license of an RN, which is in their best interest to make sure all medications are passed correctly by their Medication Aids if they wish to keep their license. Many seniors eyesight is an issue and/or remembering which medications they took can be difficult even if their pills are put into an AM/PM pill counter.
Note this, just because someone has gotten their CNA certification does not mean that they have the mental capability to pass medications. We put our Medication Aids through rigorous training and they have regular audits they must pass to continue in their roll.
Further complicating the issue, nursing schools have begun to phase out LVN/LPN programs forcing retirement communities to find new methods to safely pass the medications, thus training CNA's to pass medications.
Please note that if the resident is unstable medically than living in an AL may not be the best setting for them.
When it comes to Skilled Nursing or Hospital settings where patients are consistently unstable, I agree, medications should be passed by a trained professional i.e. RN.
Anyone is allowed to pass medicine as long as they are certified. Case closed
My mother is in a memory care unit in an assisted living facility (ALF). She has advanced dementia but is physically healthy. She does take BP & dementia meds on a daily basis, as well as vitamins. When her dementia wasn't as advanced, I would handle the ordering/purchasing & aliquoting of the meds into weekly pill boxes. Either my sister or I would call and remind Mom to take her meds. But as her dementia advanced, that no longer worked.
She was put on their meds management program. They get the meds through a pharmacy that pre-packages all her meds on a single blister card, since she only take them once/day. They are stored in a locked box. All that is required is for someone to remove one card, pop out each pill and hand it to my mother. Frankly, a child could do it. I have witnessed this on several occasions, with different aides, and the most time it has taken is 5 min. For this they charge $500/mos!! Using a figure of 5 min/day, that comes out to ~$200/hr!!!! That is just plain ludicrous! However, since I don't know anyone who lives close enough to do it, we are stuck paying that!!!
I have turned the care facility where my parents live into the State of Michigan twice for medication errors done by "Aides" that took an 8 hour class. At one point an ambulance had to be called because my Dad was so over medicated he was unresponsive and breathing poorly. Hospital said he was toxic. All that for $7500 a month!!!! My parents deserve a qualified nurse to be giving them their meds instead of Aides killing them.
Being a RN for many years, I have witnessed my Profession take a drastic and horriffic downward spiral. First, the term "nurse" is used entirely too loose. A " Nurse " is a Registered Nurse . A Registered Nurse is the ONLY Nurse who has " Legal " authority to give ALL medications, hence , why We are REGISTERED !!! LPT/ LVN/ LPN are also nurses but the Scope of Practice is less than that of an RN. LVN can NEVER give IV medications EVER ! They can stop and hang a bag on a IV pump but never push start . They cannot do Central Lines. LPT / LVN/ LPN can give oral and IM medications. Now they are letting MA give Immunizations / blood draws (without phlebotomy certs.) / and some IM meds.. (SCARY ) CNA give oral meds.( SCARY) . I do Not and will not work at these facilities and jepordize patients lives and my License that I went to school for 7 years !!! Some RN dont even know what classification is an Ativan . " Its a benzo dear, anti-anxiety. No its NOT a pain pill " If a Nurse cant tell you what a pill is for, then DONT TAKE IT !! That is a Nurses job ! Not the MA or CNA. As long as the community bow to corporatiins risking our / your Loved Ones they will continue to downsize and competent patient care. As long as Foreign taught nurses (an doctors) are allowed to " practice " medicine and nursing care on US citizens there will be , and is, substandard medical care. Dont ever leave a loved one in the hospital by themselves. Also have a RN ( USA taught) at their bedside with at least 5 years experience.. Hire an outside RN to question the Dr. Orders and to keep family informed.
How is it "SCARY" that an MA gives patient's oral meds & IM meds? I went to school for a total of 5 years experience. An AAS in Medical Assisting & a certification. So I am a CMA, I took phlebotomy as an elective so I have that skill as well. When I worked at the hospital I found out that several of the RN's I worked under only had an AAS degree & not a 4 year degree..had I have known I could have been a nurse with the 2 years of schooling I wouldn't have wasted my time in the MA program but it was hard & I succeeded & I can pass medication, not so scary.
my workplace is considered an assisted living facility but my residents are not assisted living they are total assistance with their meds, cooking, cleaning, laundry and we do their pmc and no we don't get a designated break bc of the 5:1 ratio. I am an STNA but I'm not sure if I am even supposed to passing meds I took a class hwen I worked with MRDD so I know the proper way but those new hires they don't do any med training classes isn't this illegal? can we stna's get in trouble or even jail or would the company get in trouble since it is listed as a job duty? I am really worried because I have a child to take care of and I don't want to risk anything
Degree should have nothing to do with it. I am a certified medication aide. I have worked in assisted living and skilled nursing For 30 years. I am responsible and have ran the whole building with just having a consulting nurse available. I also have worked with LPNS and RNS that I wouldn't trust my dead dog with. They are the only ones that can get meds out of the emergency kit......there are many times I have sent them back because they get the medication wrong. Also, I have seen many RNS lose their license because of stealing narcotics. I have not seen cmas lose license due to stealing narcotics. ...I'm not saying it doesn't happen, I just haven't seen it.
I have been a lpn for a few years, just started working at an alf....in the month I have been there found several narcs popped out, then taped back in...I said ummmm no, they have no clue why not, some proudly state they have been passing med for years. Fentyl patches put on without old one being taken off. Comments like it's the round blue pill, which next month could be the yellow oval pill. Scary
As a registered nurse in an extended care facility, I am comfortable with trained med techs giving most medications. However, I think that high-risk medications (i.e. insulin) and any controlled substances should only be given by a nurse.
wow i love how you people put down cna really
My son has a serious mesh infection and has decided to go to girfriends mother (CNA) and she will give him a year supply of antibiotic.. My question where is she getting she Meds? Her patients? That would mean someone is not getting thier med. I have suspected she has been doing this for awhile. I would Love to know where I can turn her in?
I just graduated (July 12, 2016) as a CNA from a local university that was an crash course over the span of four weeks....every Friday, Saturday and Sunday. I have not as yet taken my state boards but plan to do so next month. While working in a local memory care facility I have been asked to take the medication's assistant exam. What it amounted to is reading the material, answering the hard copy questions and then taking the online exam while looking at the answers!!! I now pass meds and am very uncomfortable with this, especially the prn ones. I would rather not pass meds now because I can see the effects they have on the elderly and the meds are keeping them groggy and foggy a lot of the time; not to mention the addictive nature these drugs (clonozapam, diasapham, hydrocodone, to mention a few) are causing. ) I am concerned, as the new employees that are being hired are not all CNA's but those in no profession at all. The Director of the facility was a cook and a special education teacher before being hired by the facility. I look forward to leaving this facility and finding something more professional. When the rooms range from $2,500 to $4,500 a month (without other costs!) I find myself not being happy about having my name on the meds roster and watching these fine older folks getting ripped off.
The facility i worked for gave us 2 days train8ng n then cut us loos ( working with just one other pca, who many times was as new as me) i know NOTHING about meds, what is for prn etc but was suppose to adm8nister them. Even i atructed to crush uo meds for some of the higher level dimensia/ahlzheimers persons. I heard hush stories about some pca's confusing meds n to stay qyiwt about it.wgen taking my PCA test, i ran out of time n the director tild me not to worry, she woyld finish my test n be sure u passed it....i do not work there any more..the LPN diesnt even have a co trilled account if the mefs yet as she states she us new there n will get around to it ..she counts on the PCA'S to take charge of reorder etc ...shldnt this be reportedto the state? I just dnt want my future employment effected bcause i turned them in. But i dont want patients hurt either. This med situation is such a touchy dangerous thibg for all concerned. Any advice???
I am a counselor in the field of both addiction and mental health. I consistently and forced to spend most of my hours at work providing medication management and oversight. This takes off most all of my shift due to the number of people and all kinds of medications. I went to school to be a counselor not a nurse and there are therapy aides that are also required to do this. Most places do not want to hire nurses because they do not want to pay the money. Staff is also not paid much but still needs to provide this service. I have been a counselor for many years. Over the past several years we no longer have our own desks to sit at and we provide these medication distributions.
It is all about profit. Cheap labor costs by employing non-certified and non-licensed workers to do the work while racking in the money and top managers receiving a quarterly or yearly bonus for keeping expenses low. Many of these profitable facilities have a shortage, unhappy, and burnt out employees. Always ask what the CNA to resident or nurse/medication tech to resident ratio is in a facility before leaving a family member in their care. An ideal ratio would be 1 CNA to 5 residents and 1 nurse/medication tech to 15 residents in am, noon, and evening shifts to ensure safety. Ratios outside these ranges is something to think twice about; safety hazard. There are some meds that are NOT to be given if a pulse is below 60 in the elderly and unlicensed medication techs are not aware of this.
Its scary bien poor because geting a job required so much thing from you that sometime you have not the slightess clue what you are doing yet they told you client/patient safety come first so my concern is What can we do to avoid thing you a ex e not comfortable with and keep your job at the same time
Can someone please point me in the right direction to find information about the current laws regarding pill dispensing times for nursing homes.
My mother has Parkinson and needs her medication to be given on time. When I said something about it after here medication was given an hour and a half late I was scolded and told that they
have up to two hours after the prescribed time to give the medication.
This can't be right, any way shape or form. I need official documents stating the current laws in Missouri.
Sorry to bust into this thread, I've been searching and this is the closest information I've found for what I'm looking for.
Does anyone know where you go to ask a question on this site? I can only find questions asked.
Wow. I love how you guys put down CNAs, MAs, and none certified workers to pass meds that makes it look like it's their fault that patients are messed up or overdosed. In reality, while it is true that some CNAs, MAs, and non certified workers pass meds have been given the responsibility in "some" facilities to pass meds, it is still the fault of the RNs for not making daily follow up on the conditions of the patients. RNs are still highly responsible in making due diligence for assessing the effect of medications on the patients. I have not heard CNAs, MSs, and non certified workers steal narcotic drugs from the med room....why? cause they don't have the key to the med room...only RNs have the key to the med room. Families should blame on some of the RNs for not doing their job.....doing due diligence to monitor the effect of the medications of the patients....why? cause they are licensed to do that.
Really!!. Many of the elderly have limited insurance which limits their skilled medical attention as well as what facility they can be in. The average social security check is $750 while monthly nursing home care is over $4,500 per month, and that is for the crappy homes. Medicaid how has a stipend that in many states are now paying caregivers to take care of the elderly at home- yours or theirs. Medication has always been a big deal even with the stipend caregivers. As long as the patient can administer meds to themselves you can supervise. These stipends range from $25 to $85 per day. If more people looked into this, wonder how many seniors can finally be at home with loved ones. I was one of those relatives complaining of care. The exception is that I brought mine home. Make the room. Grandkids, great-grandkids, shift work, whatever it takes. At the end of the day, the senior is suffering, wrong meds, no meds, too many meds... I would want my children to make the sacrifice for me, so I made it for my Mother. Best damn decision I ever made. Sacrificed for two years until Stipend program came my way and now I am paid to take care of my Mother. This isn't for everyone so save your negative comments for saving a whale somewhere just sharing as you all did.
In addition, I have absolutely no medical background but I can read and ask questions. Most insurance companies will not fill a script if it conflicts with side effects of other meds. Often times it starts with the doctor prescribing meds unaware of other meds prescribed by other specialists. They may know what they are, but do they have the understanding of side effects. I appreciate the insurance company aiding in checking the checker.
Dear Commutergirl, I just LOVED your answer.......and would like to interview your for an article I am writing on the subject. (I too brought my loved one home and out of a facility and it was the BEST experience ever for everyone!). How can I contact you? Stayathome
We should not ask the question "Who is qualified for dispensing medication to assisted living patients"? Instead, we should ask "How can we dispense medication in a more efficient manner to them"? One company that is revolutionizing how senior citizens receive their medication is Omnicell . Their Pharmacy Automation product line allows staff to establish more personal relationships with their respective patients. Therefore, you know that your loved ones are receiving the best possible care. Apart from medical professionals establishing more personal relationships with their respective patients, pharmacy automation also decreases human errors when dispensing medication. There is not a worse feeling when your loved one has taken the wrong dosage(or even takes the wrong medication) and suffers medical complications. Pharmacy Automation also streamlines the logistical operations of medication, which include ordering and packaging. The effect of streamlining the logistical operations of medication is that it also decreases stocking errors and increases security of controlled substances.
Instead of asking "who" we should instead ask "how" when discussing the issue of dispensing medication. The rise of technology will allow us to bring the antiquated process of dispensing medication into the modern era . It will also allow us to rebuild trust in the medical field.

WOW, in collaboration with Greenlam Laminates presents the "Point of Balance" – an installation designed to showcase Greenlam's products at the 2015 Indesign Singapore event. The design concept of the installation is derived from interpreting the event theme "Balance" to convey Greenlam and WOW's shared ethos and commitment to ecological living and building.
The installation uses 443 acrylic rods on a 12.5 x 12.5 cm grid representing a forest of trees. Placed over these trees are Balancing Birds modeled after a bird-shaped toy commonly used in physics class to teach the principles of gravity and center mass. Creating the perfect balance and angle out of the laminate birds proved to be the biggest challenge and achieved by many rounds of trials and errors.
The original inspiration to feature birds came from their vital role in maintaining the ecological balance of nature. Birds are agents of seeds dispersal, biological control of pests and bio-indicators of pollution. Yet, there are currently over 1,000 species of birds considered to be endangered, threatened or vulnerable. That's one in eight birds.
Guests are invited to pick up a bird from the nest and balance it on unoccupied trees to re-populate the forest and restore balance. Greenlam & WOW's hopes that this symbolic gesture provides a moment to reflect on our place in this world and the beautiful ecosystems we can choose to protect.

I would like nothing more than to show you loads of pictures of our party going ons but due to a photo faux pas on my part (hard to believe I know), the only picture that I managed to salvage was one of some of our edibles –
These last 6 (nearly) weeks have gone by soooooo quickly but it has allowed me to get a lot done behind the scenes. Evidence of this is a load of NEW EXERCISE VIDEO'S that you can now view by clicking on a link on our website for either: Upper Body Posture, Lower Body Stretches, Lower Body Exercises and even a few Yoga Poses. Hope you find them useful.
Lastly, but definitely not least(ly), I would like to thank the wonderful Receptionista's crew, Sue, Sarah and (Saturday) Sara, that have kept the whole place going in my absence. THANK YOU. XOX
I had hoped to write an article on skin problems regarding sunburn, but, well we best not go there… Instead I thought I`d write about traditional skin problems and their treatment with acupuncture.
Lately I've treated a few people successfully with urticaria and psoriasis and so would like to share a Chinese view of these problems. Because Chinese medicine developed from an observation of nature and its laws, its language is based on these concepts and how it describes skin problems is a great example of this.
Chinese medicine is like detective work, you have to ask questions, listen and observe to understand what`s going on inside. With skin problems the problem is right there in front of you to see, and a quiet mind and some logic will reveal all. If its red, there`s heat in the blood, if its itchy there`s a lot of heat. If its dry and scaly the heat has created dryness in the skin and there`s a lack of blood and fluids. If it oozes fluid or is swollen or raised its damp, if the skin problem moves around then there is wind. If the patches are more purple, then the blood is more stuck.
Generally skin problems are a combination of heat, wind and damp. Underlying that, are problems with the spleen, liver and the blood. The problem lies in the subtle combination of these elements and the chronicity of the problem. People often arrive at my door after having problems for years and this has depleted the body and its resources. The issue has become like a ball of knotted string, and knowing how to unpick and de tangle it can take time and patience.
Together with diet, acupuncture can help, greatly reduce the suffering of skin problems by aiming to treat the root cause of the problem which is manifesting on the skin. So if you yourself or you know of anyone with eczema, urticaria, or psoriasis then let them know acupuncture may be able to help and give us a call. We will try our very best to help you.

Oriel Welcomes Walsall Schools
On Friday 3rd November, Oriel welcomed high-achieving Year 11 students from four comprehensive schools in Walsall for a day of exploring Oxford and experiencing some of the opportunities that a top university can offer.
The event was organised in partnership with Newnham College, Cambridge, who host a linked event for Year 10s from the same area.
On the day, 40 students received guidance from Oriel's Outreach Officer India Collins-Davies and Sophie Parry, Schools Liaison Officer at Newnham College on: studying effectively for GCSE examinations; choosing A-Level subjects; and boosting future university applications with super-curricular activities. Students also took part in a Q&A session with four of Oriel's current undergraduate student ambassadors, who answered questions on everything from interviews to career options.
After lunch in Hall, the students took part in subject sessions run by Oriel postgraduate students, designed to give a challenging and inspiring insight into the tutorial system. Students opted for one of the six subject areas on offer, and introductory level tutorials were conducted on topics including the poetry of Baudelaire and Shakespeare; endocrinology; physics and its use in weather forecasting; and how the work of Plato can be applied to modern politics. Every student also received a free book in their subject area to keep, and to use as a starting point for exploring their interests outside of the GCSE syllabi.
The participating students (and teachers) enjoyed their visit and left feeling better equipped to aim high and make informed decisions about their futures. One student commented that "Oxford seems more reachable for me now".
Oriel and Newnham are planning to continue this collaborative programme in the future, involving more schools and additional year groups. The schools involved will also be welcome to request further visits to or from Oriel in the future as part of our general Outreach & Schools Liaison programme. The college also plans to implement similar "hub" programmes for high achieving students at comprehensive schools in our other UK link areas.
The participating schools for this event were: The Streetly Academy, Barr Beacon School, Walsall Academy, and West-Walsall E-Act Academy.
Any questions regarding Outreach at Oriel should be directed to our Outreach Officer India Collins-Davies (firstname.lastname@example.com). India is eager to work with any state school from our link authorities (Kensington & Chelsea, Richmond-upon-Thames, Dudley, Walsall, Wolverhampton & Worcestershire), with particular priority given to comprehensive schools.

by DxO Image Master Ian Coristine
Light is everything, and I find DxO OpticsPro does things with light that no other software can accomplish.
Edited image
Original Image / Automatic application of DxO optical corrections
First off, I checked white balance settings, the eye dropper, daylight and shade. Sometimes, this brings it closer to what I saw when I pressed the shutter, or it allows me to take some of the yellow out of late sunset shots, but I preferred it as shot.
As I wanted to bring out the drama in the sky and give the image more of the feeling of a painting, I checked out what DxO Smart Lighting might do for me.
Before/after DxO Smart Lighting correction application
Next up, I used DxO ClearView: selecting it immediately brings a transformation, adjustable with the slider.
Before/after DxO ClearView correction application
Then I adjusted the image rendering using the Selective Tone, Exposure, Vibrancy and Saturation, finalizing with a slight crop at top to eliminate less interesting clouds and put the horizon at two thirds.
Before/after Selective Tone
Before/after Exposure / Vibrancy / Saturation
Image before/after correction
Voilà: a new image emerges!
DxO Smart Lighting definitely proves indispensable, accomplishing magic I can't achieve any other way. DxO ClearView, which is intended to reduce haze in landscape images, undoubtedly does a fine job of that. But I've also discovered it can produce wonderful results in many other types of images, especially to enhance the overall contrast. It's like using a new and different lens on a familiar subject. Suddenly, a significantly different view appears. This alone is well worth the price of admission. I know of no lens that can add value anywhere close to what this costs.
To sum up, never believe the image has been fully captured when you squeeze the shutter: there's so much more to discover!

Branca de Neve is a Superbrand.
For the fifth consecutive year, Branca de Neve has been named a Superbrand.
Branca de Neve is a successful brand that has grown strong roots in the hearts and homes of the Portuguese people for more than 60 years.
Branca de Neve's longevity comes from the balance the brand strikes between preserving its original values and the ability, year after year, to remain current and stay competitive.
Branca de Neve is not just flour: the brand today has more than 40 types of wheat flours created for cakes, bread, mousses, puddings, jellies, custard and toppings.
Branca de Neve is spread around the world. Internationalisation is one of the paths chosen by the brand as part of it's strategy to solidify its position in the market and is currently available in several countries.
While advertising campaigns remain an integral part of its strategy, Branca de Neve strives to reach consumers directly, strengthening the brand's reputation among all who use it faithfully.
The results are plain to see: the same love for Revista Lusitana remains strong, the same excitement for new recipes, the same curiosity to try new products all builds great loyalty to Branca de Neve.
In a fast changing world, it is reassuring to know that there are products that remain the same, and in which we can forever invest our confidence.
It is Branca de Neve's dedication to consistent quality, innovation, and to satisfying its customers which remain the core values that drive the brand.
Superbrands: The most respected universal seal of enduring excellence.

Two male impala antelopes (Aepyceros melampus – Shona: mhara; Ndebele: ipala ) lock horns in a tussle during the lambing period, when most male impala spar with each other to move up the mating queue. It is a process of establishing a fighting category, which apparently determines mating precedence. Rank surely does have its privileges. This was a fleeting battle between the two giving an opportunity shot for split seconds before they each 'bomb shelled' in different directions. There was no knowing who won. Impala are the more prolific variety of antelope in southern African parks and a common source of protein for carnivores.

Chris Kaye - Exclusive Clubsguide Mix July
Submitted by Clubsguide on April 17th 2006
Today, Chris Kaye delights audiences around Melbourne with a unique blend of funky tribal/big room house that successfully rivals the more familiar commercial sound of the nightclub scene. His style of music and knowledge of crowds around Melbourne and abroad reflects his experience and formidable cv. Chris has played all around the world at clubs from Pacha, Ibiza to villa parties in the French Riviera. It is frightening to learn that Chris is still only 19 years of age and his potential as a DJ will only expand, as time is a factor very much on his side.
After taking up Djing as a hobby at age 12 Chris began finding work in nightclubs when he was just 16, needing written permission from his parents to play. Having set his sights on playing with the likes of Australia 's best, Grant Smillie and John Course, Chris achieved just that within the year. The highlight of his first year as a professional was playing with International DJ Jason Herd and The Rogue Traders and it seemed that already the young DJ was destined for bigger things. By 17 Chris was a regular at many nightclubs around Melbourne , often playing up to 4-5 times a week. The industry was definitely aware of Chris's ambition and more and more nightclubs were vying to get their hands on the 'next big thing'. Although Chris was getting plenty of work, his maturity allowed him to see the bigger picture; eventually he would need to stand out amongst the rest and offer something different to the hundreds of aspiring DJ's that popped up in Melbourne each year. He aimed to achieve this in the form of experience, in other words, playing with the best and learning from the best all around the world.
It was very much a brave decision to leave Melbourne at a time where many DJ's would consider their careers flying, however Chris was after much more then that, he genuinely wanted to offer something unique and unheard of in Melbourne and he quite literally had a world of knowledge awaiting him.
In June 2005, Chris embarked on a 6 month tour of Europe and the USA with only 2 gigs confirmed and both of them scheduled for the first week. The plan it seemed, was to start from scratch and aim to impress the right people early and hope that the job offers would follow. Sure enough, Chris was soon Djing at some of the hottest nightclub spots across Europe playing in cities such as London , Barcelona , Ibiza , Athens and Mykonos . Chris's energy levels behind the decks and his ability to adapt to different crowds won him many admirers overseas and as a result he was offered summer residencies in Athens and Barcelona .
After touring for 6 months Chris has returned with a sense of credibility behind the decks. Having exhausted all avenues in order to better himself as a DJ and producer, he finds himself still at age 19 boasting the kind of experience many of his peers could only dream about. His self described 'funky tribal/big room sound' reflects an appreciation and understanding of music beyond the normal expectations of a DJ his age and the Melbourne nightclub scene is already benefiting from his versatility. Having laid a foundation that will enable him to continue to adapt and develop with upcoming trends, it seems quite apparent that Chris is by no means resting on his laurels.
Where would be your ideal holiday party spot?

Onset Info
It was our first time renting a house anywhere, and I have to say that Joni made that first experience a real joy. She's very reassuring!! Just the payment through PayPal makes things SOOOO MUCH simpler! The property is fully furnished and you have EVERYTHING you need, linens, beach towels ... Tranquil spot, easy to get to beaches, 10 min walk! Otherwise, you drive anywhere to the Cape, explore, and come back to the house at the end of the day, prepare a great meal, or go to the village to experience the lobster rolls or a delicious pizza!Thank you, Joni, we felt at home and we are sure to come back! show more show less
By far the most accommodating rental we have ever experienced. Working with Joni was easy, and the interior of this "cottage" is incredible!!!! Very clean and the amenities outdid any rental we have ever used!!!!!! Location is great and the comfort feel of this home was like no other. We have recommended this rental to all of our family in the area and everyone who came to see us was in awe of this home!!!!! 5 stars hands down!!!!!
Brian, thanks for the great review and I am super happy that you loved the house and had a great vacation. Your review confirms why I spend a lot of time and energy on making sure the house is a great rental experience for my guests. Thanks for the referrals, and you and your family are always welcome to return. :-)
This was our third stay in or near Cape Cod, but this time, our experience is far better than the two other times and this, thanks to the wonderful advice of our favorite renter, Joni. Its warm welcome, its availability and relevant advice every day have greatly contributed to the success of our nice stay in this beautiful village of Onset. We stayed in this wonderful home in the second week of August 2014 and we already look forward to returning.The house is very comfortable and very well located for most of the interesting activities of the Cape. We recommend it to anyone looking for a nice stay on or near Cape Cod.Thank you very much, Joni. show more show less
Thanks, Ali, for the wonderful review. Ali and his family were great renters. My cleaner was impressed with the way they cleaned the house before they left. They are always welcomed back. :-)
My family vacationed with another family in early August at this home in Onset, and what a great decision it was. The owner Joni is easily the greatest renter we have ever dealt with and gave a ton of great suggestions for places to go with kids. The home was plenty spacious enough for our families and is in a great location...only a 5 minute walk to the bay beaches and downtown. The town itself has a great feel with every person we passed saying hello, and the weekends having great festivals. As well as a Wednesday night town music concert on the hill. We would absolutely return to this home year after year if we could. With all the positive reviews we've given friends about our trip, we may need to find a larger place to accommodate more families, but if they would back out, we will certainly stay here again. There's not a single negative from our time in MA and it all started with being able to stay at such a great home. show more show less
Thanks, Chris. You and your crew were great renters and I am happy everyone enjoyed my house and my favorite village on the bay--Onset. I would love for you to come back, but If you need a larger place in the future, I will definitely give you some suggestions and a great reference. :-)

Pick some of the smartest and safest options to prevent unplanned pregnancy immediately after doing sex. Taking healthy suggestions from expert doctors at well woman clinic in harley street is very much essential for maintaining good health.
Unprotected-sex ends up with nothing else other than an unplanned motherhood. Therefore, those women who are not at all prepared for taking the blow of pregnancy should adopt some basic precautions. Unwanted or sudden pregnancy is not the sole consequence of unprotected-sex rather STD might be invited by the same at times.
Well woman screening needs to be done for the sake of preventing the chances of STD after intercourse. Doctors often suggest women going for only safe-sex in order to avoid different unwanted consequences. Though condoms can be treated as one of the safest options but the condoms are very much prone towards sudden tearing and thus you should go for other reliable means.
If you have got pathetic experiences with unsafe sex then you should definitely learn from your experiences and should never repeat the same ever. If you take proper protection then only pregnancy immediately after doing intercourse can be prevented. You can make a proper research on the concerned matter in order to collect potential information.
Get rid of unwanted pregnancy – Best pregnancy preventing options:
Aborting child is quite a pathetic experience as it creates a greater emotional damage to women. Therefore, if you want to avoid the same then you got to adopt some safety strategies. Some of the smartest means for avoiding after-intercourse pregnancy are as follows:
- Taking birth-control pills: These pills need to be taken immediately within few hours of making sex. You can take them in the very next morning for preventing pregnancy. You should be handy with these pills so that you do not miss-out the chance of taking them. Baby-abortion is not possible with these pills but pregnancy can be prevented for sure.
- Oral-contraceptive pills: These pills need to be continued till you take the decision of being pregnant. Regular consumption of these pills can help you staying away from pregnancy. In this case, pregnancy is being delayed. Ovum-release from ovary will be prevented and sometimes thicker mucus will prevent sperm from uterus-entry. When you are mentally prepared for taking babies then you should discontinue the same otherwise your babies might experience birth-defects. Well woman checks are needed in this respect for knowing the actual health-condition.
- Condoms: If you are choosing condoms then you should go for the branded ones. You can now get multiple-flavors in condoms. Latex or rubber condoms need to be chosen for preventing unwanted penis-damages.
- Copper-T: This option is the best pregnancy-preventing solution of the era. The most happening fundamental is that no side-effects are associated with the same. It is a special kind of device which needs to be installed within uterus for the purpose of preventing sudden pregnancy. Some of these devices prevent the reaching of fertilized-eggs towards uterus while others help in releasing egg-blocking hormones.
If you are quite confused in choosing the right way-out for stopping after-intercourse pregnancy then you can definitely go to your nearest gynecologist. Well woman health screening can help the doctor in knowing that which option is the suitable one for patients.

The HIV/AIDS policy of the Anglican Church of Nigeria : a critical analysis.
Chinemelu, Benjamin Chinedu Chukwukelu.
MetadataShow full item record
This thesis seeks to outline the HIV epidemic in Nigeria and understand the response of the Church of Nigeria (Anglican Communion) to the epidemic. In evaluating the Church of Nigeria's policy document, it also seeks to understand how the response needs to be strengthened. The thesis looks at the history of HIV and AIDS in Nigeria and the impact of the epidemic on the Nigerian society. It further identifies some of the factors that contribute to the spread of HIV in Nigeria and the government's response to the epidemic. For the Church to respond appropriately to the epidemic there is a great need to start by theologizing the epidemic in a more helpful way. It is based on this that this thesis further attempts to theologize the epidemic by discussing sexuality, the notion of imago dei and shalom as well-being. The thesis examines the six thematic areas of the policy document and presents a critical analysis in which it discovers that though there are good things in the policy document, it however, needed a more solid theological foundation and employment of an educative tool that is more inclusive. Central to the argument of the thesis is that no one factor drives the epidemic, but rather a complex interaction between several factors. Therefore, to strengthen the policy document the thesis suggests a number of things to do which include a more solid theological foundation and employing of the 'SAVE' approach as an educative tool in response to the epidemic.
