HMRC have announced that they are extending their Business Records Checks programme.
These checks were piloted earlier this year and involved checks on the adequacy of Small and Medium Sized Entities' business records. The pilots apparently found that around 44% of businesses visited had issues with their record-keeping, while around 12% of those visited had seriously inadequate records.
HMRC are now extending this activity from mid-September to cover a number of key areas across the UK. As part of this, the number of full-time staff employed on the programme will rise from 30 to 120.
HMRC are planning to complete up to 12,000 checks by the end of the current financial year, with 20,000 provisionally planned for 2012/13. HMRC are increasing the number of visits so it can refine the process, before final decisions on a national roll-out are taken in the New Year. If you have any concerns in this area please contact us.

By Andrew Both
PINEHURST North Carolina (Reuters) - Phil Mickelson was pleased with his long game in the opening round of the U.S. Open on Thursday, but says he needs to start making more medium-length putts to win the championship he covets over all others.
The five-times major champion needed 31 putts and three-putted once as he navigated the tricky turtle-back greens of Pinehurst's fabled No. 2 Course.
"I putted OK but didn't make any of the ones you need to make, the 15-20 footers you need to have a good round," the American told reporters after an even-par 70 at Pinehurst No. 2.
"I had a chance to get three, four, five-under today had I made some makeable opportunities. But I didn't throw anything away on the short ones."
The six-time U.S. Open runner-up, who needs to win the event to become the sixth player to complete a career grand slam of the four majors, was only two strokes from the lead with half the field back in the clubhouse.
Mickelson was generally solid with the short putts with his new "claw" grip that he began using in the final round in Memphis on Sunday.
He switched to the unconventional putting style after becoming frustrated with his putting with a conventional grip and credited caddie Jim "Bones" McKay with an assist.
"Bones noticed something, and I kind of saw it now on a replay the other day that my eye alignment has not been over the ball," Mickelson continued.
"It's been over the top of it, and that's been throwing my lines off. When I hit good putts, they're not going in because it's a distorted view. If I could fix that, you know, I don't feel like I'm hitting bad putts, I'm just missing them a little bit on the sides. I don't feel like it's far off."
If Mickelson was lukewarm about his putting, he was delighted with his driving after not missing a fairway in the opening round of the year's second major.
"The driver feels really good. I think that's the club that is going to help me play well this week. And the one club that's hurting me is the putter," said Mickelson. "So I've got to get that turned around the next couple of days."
Mickelson also spoke briefly about a New York Times report that he is not involved in insider trading in the shares of Clorox Co but is not in the clear for possible insider trading with another company.
"With an investigation going on, I'm not going to comment any further on it. But I'll continue to say that I've done absolutely nothing wrong," he said.

Since the dawn of US ecommerce, the question has been "to sales tax, or not to sales tax?"
Consumers and online retailers are squarely in the don't-tax camp, while state governments, which stand to reap the tax dollars, are of a differing opinion. New York state has been trying to get out of state sellers, such as Amazon, to collect and pay state sales tax on transactions, which could reap hundreds of millions of dollars in annual revenue for the cash-strapped government (particular now that once-lucrative Wall Street revenues are fading fast).
The rule of thumb has long been that if the online seller has a bricks and mortar local presence in the state, e.g. Apple.com has local Apple stores, state tax is levied on online transactions. Amazon, as well as other online-only retailers such as Overstock.com, challenged New York's attempt to get them to pony up 8.25 percent on all New York state transactions.
Yesterday, a NY State judge dismissed Amazon's suit as groundless.
Blame.....the affiliates?
Because Amazon generates more than $10,000 in referrals from New York-based affiliates, the judge's reasoning goes (ergo, New Yorkers to earn money from other New Yorkers) Amazon, as well as other out-of-state retailers with affiliate programs, are going to have to get on the state tax bandwagon.
And that's going to hurt. Not NY state, of course, but online retailers and consumers.
A seldom-discussed bit of accepted wisdom is that ecommerce is buoyed in no small part by its ability to enable buyers to avoid paying taxes on high ticket items (which also lessens the burden of shipping charges). Buying that new laptop on Amazon versus a local store can shave a couple hundred dollars in sales tax right off the price - a strong incentive to buy, particularly in tough economic times.
The aftermath of this ruling is going to be interesting. How much (more) will online retailing suffer, now that their tax amnesty status in New York is lifted? Will affiliate programs be designed on a state-by-state basis in the US? It's an absurd notion relative to the nature of the web, but entirely possible in hard economic terms.
This will be an interesting one to watch. Bottom line, New York's decision to disincentivize ecommerce could not possibly have come at a worse time.
Comments (2)
such a nice information about income tax so i read and understand about tax preparation.
There are 5 additional states working to place laws on the books to use affiliates as a nexus to claim the collection of sales taxes. The loser is the state as this caused Overstock to close their program to New York affiliates. Some relocated the rest lost income which means they paid less New York income tax. The net result, New York lost millions of tax dollars with no increase in sales tax. Stupid use of tax law as it takes a federal court to enforce interstate tax collection.

I am literally squealing with excitement as i write this post. I am a HUGE fan of White Stripes so you can imagine my excitement when i heard that they were joining the Rockabye Baby Music hall of fame.
I think i almost wore out White Stripes Elephant cd and certainly damaged my speakers with the volume i cranked Seven Nation Army up too!
Pity i don't have a sleepless baby in the house to rock to sleep any more. I think this one is just going to have to be my new baby shower gift.
So just in case you have not heard of Rockabye Baby Music before, Rockabye Baby transforms rock favourites into beautiful instrumental lullabies. Guitars and drums are traded for xylophones and bells, and the volume is turned down from an eleven to a two.
And tonight your little rocker will sleep like a baby to Rockabye Baby Lullaby Renditions of White Stripes with an awesome collection of their coolest tracks including;
Fell in Love with a Girl, Blue Orchid, I Just Don't Know What to Do with Myself, My Doorbell, You Don't Know What Love Is (You Just Do What You're Told), The Hardest Button to Button, Seven Nation Army, Icky Thump, Jolene, Dead Leaves and the Dirty Ground,

Baltic amber jewelry – Amber is fossilized tree resin often used in jewelry. Sometimes a gemstone is considered, but in fact is not mineralized. The Baltic amber is any amber Baltic region, which accounts for 80% of the known amber deposits. Follow these steps to learn how to make a necklace of amber 45 cm and 5 parts. Baltic amber jewelry is usually considered beautiful stones, however, the Baltic Sea amber origin actually dates back to prehistoric times. Millions of years ago the trees gave off its lifeblood in droplets and clusters, capturing everything that was in its path, including insects, leaves, twigs and sometimes small amphibians. These quantities of sap, millions of year's later, petrified, giving rise to what we call Baltic amber. From that it is not a real stone, great care must be taken in cleaning and Baltic amber storage. Directions for taking care of Baltic amber jewelry: 1) Moisten a soft felt in warm water. 2) Rub the amber with the moistened cloth. 3) Dry the amber from the Baltic Sea with the cloth that is dry. 4) Place Baltic amber in a plastic bag for storage. 5) Press the air out of the bag and repeatedly bend. 6) Seal the plastic bag with a piece of tape.

Help! New School Nurse in Trouble!!
I am a brand spanking new school nurse (and I've only been an RN for 2 years to boot!). I feel blessed and so lucky that I am now one of the few, the underappreciated, the school nurses.
Here's the problem: I was hired 3 weeks before school started. The old school nurse retired in June and moved out west somewhere. She had worked at the school since before I was born. Apparently, she was quite the mystery woman and no one knows exactly what she did or how she did it. Well I'm finding out the hard way. I am over whelmed with paper work that is unfamiliar and if that weren't bad enough, I'm the truant officer as well!! The elementary school nurse (I am the nurse for 7th - 12th grades) helps when she can but she is overwhelmed too.
I'm trying my best and so far the students have been the least of my worries. The parents are another story...
I'd appreciate any advice or good luck wishes that anyone can offer.

RN @ Hampton Bays HSOct 9, '02I wish you lots of luck. I understand that it is overwhelming, and can still be overwhelming even after you have some experience. Is there a policy/procedure manual that the previous nurse left behind? If not, does the school district administration have one? Are there other nurses in your district or in another district that can go over the forms and procedures with you? Or, maybe a school health advisory committee that can be of assistance? These are just some suggestions, let us know how it goes. Perhaps some of the other posters can provide some additional guidance. Hang in there. Feel free to ask questions anytime.
LindaOct 9, '02Welcome to school nursing. I too am a new nurse (18 months) and school nursing (10 months). I love my job! You are right - I swear 90% of my job is paperwork! Keep your eye out for a manual. We have one and I call it "the bible." Good luck.Oct 10, '02WELCOME TO SCHOOL NURSING! :roll
Im a schoolnurse here in our country,Ive been here for 5 years.
Wishing you luck and GodBless!Oct 10, '02Thanks everyone. I got hold of my policy book today and found that a lot of the info in it is VERY outdated. I'm working on contacting the NYS dept of ed on getting updated materials. It seems as if the old nurse just lost her thunder about 10 years ago and gave up! Is that what I have to look forward to?
Also, I feel as if I'm sending a lot of kids home everyday. One of the secretaries told me not to worry that it's ultimately the parents responsiblility to decide whether or not they want to pick their kids up.
How often is it necessary to make follow up calls to parents after a child injures themselves? Should I be calling the parents of every student no matter how minor the injury? I've just been using my gut instinct (!!!) about this
Do any of you out there do inservices for staff on infection control / universal precautions etc? The old nurse never did any such thing and I thought it would be helpful to the faculty and staff.Oct 10, '02I know exactly how you feel. I started this job 4 years ago with no orientation or training. I struggled for the first 2 years. Now I know what to expect. I say just do what you can, read and make your own job description according to the needs of the students. I train in blood borne pathogens every year - just a basic run through. I am also certified to teach first aid, adult and child cpr and aed. I run myself crazy with sick children and head lice but its the only job I have ever had that understands if your child or you are sick. Its also great to have the holidays and weekends plus summers off. Hang in there and take it one day at a time. There's always next year!Oct 10, '02Welcome to school nursing and allnurses It can't be easy starting from scratch. Here are some ideas that may help.
1. You should have a health record for each student, check them against your class lists to verify compliance with immunizations and ppd. List any recorded health problems for follow up.
2.Don't feel bad about having to send kids home, some parents are not sure the child is really ill so they send them to school knowing they may get a call from the nurse.
3. Keep a log of visitors to your office.
4.Policy here is to follow up on injuries only if the child was sent home.
5.Speak to the principal about addressing a faculty meeting to speak about universal precautions etc.
Good luck, Mrs. B. Come back & let us know how it's going.Oct 10, '02Mrs. B we send home a note if there is blood or bruising. Our school is a special ed school, so we are pretty diligent with keeping parents informed - not that it always makes a difference!Oct 14, '02I know how you feel. I was hired just this year for 6th-12th grade school nurse. Wyoming has few regulations for school nurses so I'm not always sure how to go about everything. I find my job to be kinda lonly. My office is set back from the rest of the school. I am a 3year post graduate nurse but I had 1 yr off due to a severe concussion. My short term memory is affected so I have some challenges with that. I had worked at a long term care facillity. I had other staff to talk to. I also struggle with f very controlling secretary that wants to do everyones job along with hers. Well just wanted to say Hi mostly good luck for this school year. I really like the site. moyesrnOct 14, '02Moyesrn -I find it lonely at times too. It's hard being the only "medical" person in the building. The only teachers that ever come to visit me are the PE teachers b/c of all the injuries in their classes. Even then it's just to pick up an incident report!
I find that talking to the students makes the time pass. If there's a young person in my office for some real or imagined illness, I try to connect with them in some way. I've learned some pretty interesting things about how the teenage mind works....
I'm sorry that you've got a controlling secretary at your school. I wouldn't have survived the first couple of weeks at school if it weren't for the "girls" in the main office. They are so helpful and have gone out of their way to make me feel at home. Also, they know all the "dirt" and hx about the students. Like, who has a tough home life, who's gonna be the next ax murderer, who's spoiled rotten, the one's with the crazy parents etc.
Thanks again to everybody for the support and great tips!!Oct 14, '02After reading your posts, I feel lucky. I work at a special ed school with about 130 students. I am fortunate to work with another nurse. With the children we serve, there is no way we would be able to have only one nurse. We are also connected to the main office. I can't imagine being off by myself! Have a good week!Oct 14, '02When my oldest son was in a military school, they tried to recruit me to be their "medic" (RN). I almost took the job, until the retiring medic took me into the med room, There were 180 boys K-8 grades, 175 of them were on meds, 125 of them were resident students so, I can pour meds and the nuns will dispense them at night and early morning. I ran like heck and went to work in a jail, not much different, just a little older.Oct 15, '02Paperwork that is unfamiliar can be daunting. Can P&P help you any?
The truency officer was always very busy in my opinion. Probably hard to do both isn't it?

Highway in Peru – level 1
02-09-2016 07:00
People are extending a highway in Peru. However, there is not enough land for the highway. There are houses in the way. These houses must be destroyed.
People live in the houses, but they must go away. They do not like it. They do not want to go away.
Police come to their houses. The people fight the police. In the end, the police force the people away.
This is a big problem in Peru. It is a problem in all of Latin America, too.
Difficult words: extend (make something bigger), force (make somebody do something – use force to do it).
You can watch the original video in the Level 3 section.

In real life, nobody waits for your translation. People usually use simple English when they speak but they use it fast. You have to understand with no translation to your native language. If you translate, you cannot be part of communication because you are thinking about the language too much. These words are maybe hard to read but they are true.
You also have to hear every new word 5 to 10 times if you want to remember it. That's why we use the same words in one level. If you read and hear the same words again and again, you will understand them and remember them. If you know words from one level, you can go to a higher level and learn new words. It is important to go step by step, and read and listen to words which are used in English often. This is what we do with our news. In our short news, we use words which are used in English often. Level 1 has the 1000 most important words. Level 2 has the 2000 most important words, Level 3 has the 3000 most important words.
So, if you want to understand English fast and learn fast, read two articles or more a day. You can improve your reading and listening quickly when you read easy English news. We will help you learn English fast and understand it. When you use this website every day, you can learn 3000 words which you need for communication with anybody in English.

Teaching hospitals the world over face increasing difficulties in sourcing real patients who exhibit every conceivable ailment which medical students need to learn to diagnose and treat. An e-learning approach using interactive computer simulations known as virtual patients is one way to solve the problem, but in which settings is the use of these virtual patients most effective? Engineer and lecturer Martin Riemer and his co-author Martin Abendroth, a medical doctor, have spent the past year studying the use of virtual patients by hundreds of students at the University Medical Centre Hamburg-Eppendorf, Germany, and their findings shed light on how best virtual patients should be integrated into the curriculum.
Patience as a virtue
The development of precise virtual patients has been a slow but rewarding process, and these virtual patients are proving to be very useful. Riemer says that many medical students have a traditional approach to learning with few e-learning materials involved in their sometimes solitary book-based study routine where they cram as much medical knowledge as humanly possibly into their brain. Developing the virtual patient concept and then integrating it into the curriculum is thus a novelty. "Our early virtual patients were fictitious," he says, "but for well over a year now we've been taking anonymous data from real patients. You have to work with real data to avoid the students asking questions like 'Can that really happen?' or 'Are these real laboratory findings?' The medical data we use is authentic, though we use fictitious faces to protect their privacy."
The study design
As the integration of virtual patients in medical training courses gains ground, it is important to understand which virtual teaching methods work best in the real world. Riemer and Abendroth sought to find out whether students engage best with virtual patients in online courses, seminars, or smaller classroom settings. They examined a group of 400 online students, a group of 250 students in classroom seminar groups and a number of groups of between five and seven students involved in either classroom or online learning. The online students were classified according to how many courses they had completed. The researchers measured the students' participation and evaluated their feedback on the benefits and shortfalls they saw in the use of virtual patients.
The outcome
Using virtual patients in a small, classroom-based group proved the most effective way to engage students. Most students responded favourably to each case when they were able to discuss the findings with their peers. Riemer says, "I can see virtual patients replacing at least traditional paper cases in Problem-Based Learning as they offer a wider variety of media, allow non-linear solutions and students cannot cheat by looking at a later page." In reviewing his current findings, he says, "I had to correct the assumption in my OEB 2010 contribution that non-linear structured virtual patient cases are preferred by students near the end of their formal education: they prefer linear cases as they take up less time to 'solve'." So although the medical students have been slow to turn to Wikis and other collaborative learning tools, cooperating with their peers in diagnosing virtual patients is proving popular, making the virtual patient a real part of the curriculum.
Martin Riemer was recently named Teacher of the Year 2011 in a poll conducted among students at Faculty of Medicine at the University of Hamburg-Eppendorf. His OEB 2011 presentation is entitled Which Kind of Teaching Method Using Virtual Patients Is Most Attractive to Medical Students? He will speak on Friday, December 2nd, 2011, at 16.30 – 18.00

Much more surprising things can happen to anyone who, when a disagreeable or discouraged thought comes into his mind, just has the sense to remember in time and push it out by putting in an agreeable, determinedly courageous one. Two things cannot be in one place.

This is me though and for those that know AJ and I, you will know that we never need a reason to celebrate. I have been going through old photos - (a most enjoyable pastime of mine!) and have still managed to change my mind several times. I've still got so many to choose from so I thought I'd go festive.
This was taken on Christmas Eve back in 2005. A group of us, pre-babies had decided to go out in our local town and thought we'd dress up just for the hell of it!
Note that AJ (the biggest fancy dress fan EVER) still manages to be different!)
We certainly made an entrance as we all walked into the pub.....

Amid the partisan showdown on Capitol Hill over how to slice the deficit, Democrats want to get rid of some tax breaks for oil companies.
U.S. Rep. Jim Moran, a Northern Virginia Democrat, used an eye-catching statistic to justify doing just that.
"Over the past decade, the big five oil companies -- BP, Chevron, ConocoPhillips, ExxonMobil and Shell -- made a total profit of nearly $1 trillion," Moran said in a Feb. 10 news release.
No doubt, oil companies have made big profits. But we wondered if the decade-long profit tally really did approach $1 trillion.
Anne Hughes, Moran's spokeswoman, said the figure came from a report earlier this year by the Center for American Progress, a liberal think tank.
The report says the five oil companies made $951 billion, not adjusting for inflation, from 2001 through 2010. Daniel Weiss, the author of the report, said he got the profit data from Google Finance and from the companies themselves.
But Weiss acknowledged he made a mistake while adding up the annual profit tallies.
Weiss sent us updated figures for the 10-year period. Those numbers, which were adjusted for inflation to reflect 2011 dollars, showed the five companies had a total profit of $901.6 billion for the 10-year-period.
We dug around ourselves to see if Weiss' latest figure was correct, examining profit figures each of the companies listed in their annual reports from 2001 through 2010.
We found that British Petroleum, Royal Dutch Shell, ExxonMobil, Chevron and ConocoPhilips had a total decade-long profit of roughly $801.7 billion in raw dollars.
The total profit for the five companies peaked at $123.4 billion in 2007. Last year it was $77.5 billion.
When we adjusted our annual figures for inflation, the five companies' 10-year total profit was about $884.3 billion.
That's close to the Weiss' updated number. Still, both his figure and ours are about $100 billion away from $1 trillion. So it's a stretch to say that the 10-year profit was "nearly $1 trillion."
Adam Sieminski, chief energy industry economist at Deutsche Bank, didn't see much use in putting too much stock in an overall profit number for those oil giants.
The profits should be expected to be large because the of the size of the companies, he said.
"These are big companies," Sieminksi said. "You would think the real question would be how does it compare to other industries, what are the profit margins in the oil industry relative to profit margins in health care and banking and construction and so on, and the answer is they're not that much different."
We compared the profit margins of oil companies to those of three major Virginia companies: Dominion Virginia Power, Altria and Norfolk Southern.
Between 2007 and 2009, profit margins at ExxonMobil and Royal Dutch Shell ranged from a high of 10.0 percent to a low of 4.4 percent. Dominion, a regulated utility company, had an 11.5 percent profit margin in 2008 and an 8.7 percent margin in 2009. Norfolk Southern, one of the nation's largest railroads, had a profit margin between 13 percent and 16.1 percent each of the three years.
Altria, the nation's largest tobacco company had a profit margin of 52.4 percent in 2007. It's margin was 25.5 percent in 2008 and 13.6 percent in 2009.
So these three companies, each in different industries, consistently out-performed the major oil companies. But because the oil giants all had much higher revenues -- between $285 billion and $470 billion compared to revenues around $10 billion for Norfolk Southern, $15 billion for Dominion and $20 billion for Altria -- the oil profits seem look more grandiose.
Let's review:
Moran said BP, Chevron, ConocoPhillips, ExxonMobil and Shell took in nearly $1 trillion in profit over the past decade.
That statement was based on a report from the Center for American Progress, which initially said profits totaled $951 billion, but then corrected its figure to $901.6 billion.
Our math put the inflation-adjusted profits at $884.3 billion. That's still more than $100 billion away from the $1 trillion figure Moran cited.
So to say that the total profits was nearly $1 trillion is a stretch.
The overall tally is still sizable though, so we rate the claim Mostly True.
Amid the partisan showdown on Capitol Hill over how to slice the deficit, Democrats want to get rid of some tax breaks for oil companies.

These creative public awareness ads from Thailand relay an important message. Girls & boys, always have a pepper spray ready in dangerous places.
The campaign smartly plays on the tag line "When they can't see, they can't hurt you" by blackening out the attacker through the range of the pepper spray.
We have three scenarios of a girl defending herself with pepper spray while being attacked in three suspicious places: Dark Street, Car Parking and a Toilet.
I find the street and parking ads very effective, as they show the attack weapon (a gun and a knife) dropped to the floor when the attacker is sprayed. Also the Toilet ad with the attacker's pants down to his feet and the frightened victim sprawled on the floor is pretty disturbing but drives the message home.
The campaign was created by Lowe Bangkok ad agency, Thailand.

Authorized Ford Dealership and AVIA Gas Station
The 90 year history of Autohaus Segerer began in 1920 when Joseph Segerer set up a garage for the repair and maintenance of agricultural machinery. The workshop expanded rapidly over the years adding bike, motorbike and moped sales and repair to the list of services. In 1930 Lanz tractors were also assembled on the premises. Joseph Segerer passed away in 1937 and the company tradition was carried on by his widow Maria until 1955 when she handed over the management to her son and daughter-in-law Joseph and Johanna Segerer. Initially Joseph and Johanna gave up the work on agricultural machines preferring to concentrate on the installation business.
In 1958 a new Shell gas station with car wash was purchased. From 1973 they maintained the gas station business only changing from Shell to AVIA in 1981. In 1986 Josef Segerer jun. opened a free car garage business and March 1988 together with Peter Segerer jun. they became an authorized Ford dealership. In November of 1992 the Segerer company took over an ESSO gas station some 300 meters away and rebuilt that into the present AVIA gas station. In 1999 the original AVIA gas station and garage was then converted and expanded with a new hall and became home for the workshops with showroom and offices for the Ford Dealership.

####Fiddler on the Roof The Tony-winning Fiddler on the Roof transports viewers back to early 20th-century Russia, presenting the travails of the Jewish inhabitants of the town of Anatevka as they struggle with love, religious persecution, and weak water pressure in their homes. As the world changes around him, family patriarch and dairyman Tevye implores his five daughters to hold onto their traditions in spite of the burgeoning antisemitism rumbling on the horizon. Despite the serious subject matter, the play is hardly a gloomy affair. For one thing, there's plenty of humor to be had in Jerry Bock and Sheldon Harnick's score, which includes indelible songs such as "Sunrise, Sunset," "If I Were a Rich Man," and "Matchmaker." Encore's production conveys the warmth of the characters and story with the help of traditional costumes and a simple set that evokes folk-art paintings.
####Encore Dinner Theatre With a design and ambiance that evokes the aura of 1940's supper clubs, Encore Dinner Theatre escorts modern audiences back to the days of classic live entertainment. The intimate dining room—sporting only 240 seats in clear view of the stage—welcomes guests for wining and dining on gourmet cuisine before and during performances. Showtime is signaled by the rising of the chandeliers, which give way to spotlights shining on beloved Broadway musicals, plays, and concerts. Encore also features a sprawling dance floor so audience members can waltz and watusi to classic, classy tunes.

PEG tube leaking
I had a pt today with a peg tube that had some leakage around the site. A KUB had been done yesterday and it showed the tube to be in good position. Well when I changed the dressing there was what looked like some tube feeding around the site and on the dressing. Then later when I gave a med thru the tube (which was red), I decided to see if it was still leaking. Sure enough when I lifted the tube upward the red drainage started seeping out. The surgeon had come by early am and had commented in the progress notes "No drainage around g-tube site". (Which by the way wasnt true b/c I changed the dressing about 30 mins later). So I called the doc on call and he said he thought it was alright and that the other surgeon would re eval in am. My question is...how much is too much drainage from the peg tube site? What could be causing this? Thanks.

telemetry nurseSep 6, '06Have you checked the balloon to make sure there is enough filling the balloon to keep it in place? If so, are they using normal saline because the sodium tends to weaken the balloon and it will eventually get deflated........I only put sterile water in the balloon of a gt......
How about the diameter of the tube? Is it wide enough? It could be that the patient just needs a little wider diameter tube............
Also....have you vented the tube? Sometimes gas pressure can build up & what can happen is the old "path of least resistance" .....if pressure is built up, something has to give...and the fluid may escape around the tubing. You'd be surprised at the amount of people who forget this one little thing that can do alot for the patient... Just remember ......gtube patients need to burp too! It is very painful to them with the gas pressure in their bellies..
Good Luck!Last edit by KellieNurse06 on Sep 6, '06Sep 6, '06i was thinking of the balloon also, but then i thought that peg tubes were sutured in.
which type of tube can be replaced at the bedside and the other type, back to the o.r.?
if it is a tube with a balloon, then maybe it needs a 30cc?
i'm curious to hear what the surgeon says.
leslieSep 6, '06Quote from earle58Oh Ya!! Great point!!! I forgot that surgeons usually do suture the tube in place......(owwww!!) I think the tube that can be done at the bedside is the foley cath type.....am I correct???i was thinking of the balloon also, but then i thought that peg tubes were sutured in.
which type of tube can be replaced at the bedside and the other type, back to the o.r.?
if it is a tube with a balloon, then maybe it needs a 30cc?
i'm curious to hear what the surgeon says.
leslieSep 7, '06we have some pts with balloons (foleys) as their tubes. It is very rare where I work for a gt to leak AROUND the tube. We do a gastrography study which is much more conclusive than KUBs, but I am not sure what the policy is where you are. Could there be a puncture in the tube its self?Sep 7, '06Quote from earle58PEG tube placement is a surgical procedure. There's not much a nurse can do with a PEG site other than keep it clean and dry. If it's leaking, the physician should be notified. Since the OP already did that, she can't do a whole lot else other than keep changing the dressing and documenting what she sees until the doctor comes in to look at it.i was thinking of the balloon also, but then i thought that peg tubes were sutured in.
which type of tube can be replaced at the bedside and the other type, back to the o.r.?
if it is a tube with a balloon, then maybe it needs a 30cc?
i'm curious to hear what the surgeon says.
If it's a Foley, it should already have been a 30 cc balloon.Sep 7, '06no- gastrostomy tubes w/balloon are not the same as foley caths.
if a pts' g-tube needs changing, we usually stick a foley in until the g-tube arrives from pharmacy.
stomas close up incredibly fast so it's imperative a foley is inserted, to prevent another surgical procedure.
the g-tubes i have worked with, come w/10cc and 30cc balloons.
what i get confused about, is when a gastrostomy is being done in prep for enteral fdgs, there is a procedure where the surgeon sutures the g-tube in.
i thought that was the peg (percutaneous enteral gastrostomy?).
these cannot be changed by nsg. it is solely a surgical procedure.
the other procedure is once the gastrostomy is done, then the g-tube w/balloon is merely inserted, balloon inflated.
it can be changed by nsg prn.
anyway, i was confused as to what exactly a peg tube was.
leslieSep 7, '06Here are some pictures of different type of tubes:
http://www.cysticfibrosismedicine.co...feedpicgal.htmSep 7, '06I have seen leakage in good tubes before in newly established tubes...sometimes it is the placement of the end pushing against the sides of the stomach just by body position. What I try to do is have the pt sit up for 30 minutes after each feeding/med/flush. Sometimes that fixes the situation and then I know it is positional.
But if that doesn't work, sometimes it is swelling too. I KEEP the dressing so I can show the MD and mark them with time of change. That way if there is no active drainage right then and there when the MD comes...they have a reference to go by. I will also document about how much was on the dressing...like quarter size, dime sized...its an estimate and the color and smell too if it is unsual. (cause either way...pewwwwwwww!). Another handy trick..mark the times on the dressings when you applied and removed so leakage speed is recorded!
Of course, trying to be there with the MD at the time is premium...but not very possible some times with the way they pop in and out like a ghost! LOL!
Most of the ones I have even encountered are sutured, but I have had to watch a actual foley put in till they could get the pt into surgery to put in another. This is a temp urgent/emergency thing in our facility. (The patient coughed really hard and blew the sutures...ouch!!!!!! Freaked me out! LOL!).
Either way it goes, keep that area clean and dry as possible to keep from getting any further skin errosion or damage (that will make more leaks and/or infections).Sep 7, '06hmm didnt look it up but i think..
1)PEG ..percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy
2)PEJ ..percutaneous endoscopic jejuenostomy
need to make sure which one you are dealing with......how old is it....has it ever been forceably "unblocked" or invasively "unblocked"..? which mght hint at a rupture of the tube....presumming that it is a PEG, try positioning pat. on his/her rght side ,...
in the short term, about the only thing to do is as stated above, keep the area as dry and clean as poss... good luckSep 7, '06If it's a PEG that is sutured in place then catlady is correct and the MD will have to come in and deal with the problem. Just keep documenting and let the MD know what's going on. Does it have the round disk that rests against the abdomen keeping it in place?
If it's a GT with a foley in place, peristalsis(sp?) may be pulling the foley down thus the balloon may not be resting against the abdominal wall allowing contents to leak out the stoma. To fix this we usually take a washcloth, fold it in half, roll it up, wrap the excess foley tubing around it and tape it on to the washcloth. (Make sure the foley has been pulled until resistance is met so the balloon is against the abdominal wall.) This prevents the excess tubing to pulled in. You can also cut a hole in a pacifier and pull it through but finding a pacifier where I work isn't gonna happen.
I've worked both long term care (GT's for years and years) and subacute (30 patients, 28 with GT's!) and for some reason the PEG doesn't stay in long. After a while it's replaced with a 20 or 22 Fr foley catheter making it easier for the nurse to replace when clogged or those rare occations when a confused combative resident thinks pulling out her own PEG/GT (With the balloon inflated. Ouch.) is a good way to get back at us. This way we aren't calling the MD at all hours and sending them out via ambulance just to replace a PEG.Sep 7, '06Quote from TriageRN_34Years ago when I started in LTC, the only kind of G-tubes we saw were Foleys. They were usually 24g or higher, 30 cc balloon Foleys. We changed them once a month and prn, just like urinary Foleys. The only difference was that we snipped off the tip (not the balloon) for better flow. We always remembered to pad the bed, because it could get pretty messy when taking out the old Foley.Most of the ones I have even encountered are sutured, but I have had to watch a actual foley put in till they could get the pt into surgery to put in another. This is a temp urgent/emergency thing in our facility. (The patient coughed really hard and blew the sutures...ouch!!!!!! Freaked me out! LOL!).

I bet this is on here somewhere but as for me I looked EVERYWHERE for the Latin of:
" Hail and Blessed be the hour and moment in which the Son of God was born of that most pure Virgin Mary, at midnight, in Bethlehem, in piercing cold,. In that hour, vouchsafe, oh my God! to hear my prayer and grant my desires, through the merits of our Savior Jesus Christ, and of His Blessed Mother. Amen. "
And FAther Matthias Heppel, and Independent priest on "Ask A Traditional Priest" on Facebook sent me:
Hora momentumque saluto et benedicant in qua Filius Dei natus ex Maria Virgine purioris media in Bethlehem penetrabile frigus. In illa hora dignare, Domine Deus meus exaudi orationem meam, et praesta, ut desiderium meum per merita Jesu Christi Domini nostri, et de Beatæ Suæ Genitricis. Amen.

Imagine living a better quality of life with the chronic condition called heart failure. That's just what many patients are doing thanks to innovative home care heart failure programs. A recent McLean Home Care & Hospice patient when asked how the nurses and therapists helped her live better reported "They gave me a lot of encouragement. Telemonitoring helped me control my condition especially my weight." She said she does not need to rush to the doctor's office or a hospital as many patients with heart failure do.
The McLean Home Care Living with Heart Failure Program focuses on providing skilled care to Medicare clients who are homebound due to their current health conditions. McLean nurses teach patients, family members and caregivers to recognize early the signs and symptoms of trouble and when to call the doctor. Participation in the program can increase a patient's strength and endurance as well as safety in the home. The multi-disciplinary approach of nurses, physical and occupational therapists can maximize a person's independence and ability to conserve energy while performing activities of daily living like cooking, bathing and dressing. In addition to nurses and therapists, McLean Medical Social Workers are knowledgeable about community resources and help guide clients with short and long term planning.

Some TV casting news you should know about…
First, Boris Kodjoe has joined the cast of the 3rd season of CBS' crime drama series Unforgettable, to play a Secret Service Agent named Benjamin Hernandez, who takes over a murder case because of its connection to a federal case he's been working on. The character is described as adversarial and territorial, but eventually warms up to the Unforgettable team.
Second, the sadly-underused Sophie Okonedo (although she works consistently outside the USA, on stage and screen) has booked a co-starring role a new Wall Street-set CBS drama series from the writers of Justified (Taylor Elmore and Ben Cavell), which follows a smart and sophisticated Wall Street hedge fund trader who served his country in Iraq, who wants to do good. Okonedo has signed up to play a character named Bryce, described as a woman who's deeply committed to her work as an assistant attorney general, tasked with the responsibility of heading a task force investigating Wall Street firms.
Third, S. Epatha Merkerson is returning to NBC to play a recurring role on the network's drama pilot Babylon Fields, rejoining with her Deception co-star, Megan Good, who stars in the new sci-fi project. In the drama, set in a place called Babylon, NY, the dead are coming back to life, as their bodies regenerate, and they grow stronger than the living, leading to the scary suggestions that they just might be the next step in human evolution. Good plays a Dr Janine Beltran, local to Babylon, NY, who has "an edge to her," and Merkerson will play Pearl Montoya, Janine's (Meagan Good's) stepmother. Oddly enough, in Deception, she played Good's mother.
Fourth, Joe Morton has landed a co-starring role on TNT's drama pilot Proof, joining Jennifer Beals who will play the lead in the medical supernatural show, which will see Beals star as a brilliant but somewhat jaded female surgeon, still struggling with the devastating death of her son, who begins investigating cases concerning reincarnations, haunting, out-of-body experiences, and other supernatural phenomena. Morton will play Dr. Charles Russell, the tough and intimidating chief who runs the hospital where Beals' character works.
And finally, Barbara Eve Harris has landed a series regular roles on ABC's drama pilot Forever, which centers on New York City's star medical examiner, who also happens to be immortal. Harris has signed up to play a Lt. Roark, an NYPD veteran who runs the unit where the medical examiner works. Worth noting is that, the role originally was written for a male character.
That's it for now! Happy weekend!

Do you think Jim Bakker should go to jail?
Friday we asked readers for opinions on this question. Below are excerpts from those calls. Sound Off is not a scientific poll.
He used money for his own purpose. There should be a punishment. He puts up a smokescreen of belief in God, but he did not practice what he preached.
He should go to jail. He used the lord's name to corruptly take money from thousands of people.
If we were in a business and we took that much money away from the people, we'd find ourselves in jail. He's been smiling through this whole case, and he's guilty and he should go to jail.
He should go to jail for the full 120 years.
Not for 120 years, but for a good, long time.
He should rot in jail.
Jail's too good for him. He's nothing but a thief and a lying, no-good scoundrel. He's a low-life, taking advantage of people.
They should bring the chain gang back just for him.
I'm surprised something hasn't happened to him before now. I just can't believe a person could be that mean and claim to be a Christian. He should be put under the jail.
If we did that, we would be going to prison. Since he's a minister, what he did is worse than a cop going bad.
He stole. He should go to jail and he should have a big, hefty fine placed on him.
He should go to jail. His crimes are disgusting against humanity.
Jim Bakker should pull time for what he committed and he should pay the cost of the trial.
He should go to jail and look at normal people instead of seeing his wife look like a clown all the time. The poor guy needs a break.
He should go to jail, be cause he's a sinner and he shouldn't have done what he done. At least he'll get relaxation from Tammy's make-up.
He should go to jail and his wife should go, too. She spent the money just as much.
Jim Bakker should go to jail, and they should get Tammy, too.
Yes, and make sure Jessica goes with him.
He's nothing but a crook. Send him for life.
He was using religion to hide behind in order to steal from people who could the very least afford to be stolen from.
He needs to make things square. If he's so religious this is one way he can bow down and say, "Thank you, God. Punish me." That's what he needs.
He said at the beginning of the trial that he would prove that there is a God. It's been proven because all 24 charges were proved against him.
Jim Bakker should go to jail. He desecrated God's name by fooling the people into giving him money in the name of the lord for his own use.
Yes. Hallelujah.
It's imperative that Bakker be punished so that others won't continue doing this as they are doing, even within Virginia.
Maybe this will make these fakes wise up.

Meaningful use spurs fresh AHIMA patient engagement push
AHIMA's guide aims to help physicians and coding community increase patient engagement with health records as well as boost health literacy.
The American Health Information Management Association -- which represents several groups of health care workers in the billing and coding workflow of the U.S. health care system -- recently reinforced its push for patient engagement and health literacy with a guide titled Understanding your medical record.
Download Complete Guide to Healthcare IoT Now
Healthcare IoT has the potential to greatly improve patient care – but it's not without its challenges. Download this essential guide in one PDF and learn how to overcome the obstacles: security, data overload, regulations, and more.
The guide resides on the association's MyPHR.com site, which also includes other resources for patients and physicians to learn about the value of learning about and sharing clinical data -- down to a checklist of to-dos for patients in the event their health data is stolen.
We sat down with Marsha Dolan, co-chair of AHIMA's Consumer Health Practice Council, on the eve of AHIMA's annual meeting to discuss the new guide. Dolan talks about how the guide supplements several nationwide health data initiatives such as the push for accountable care organizations (ACOs) and meaningful use stage 2 compliance. Physicians are required through that regulation to ensure their patients are downloading data, in order to receive EHR incentive checks.

Some movie stars fill seats in the theater and then can't deliver — but Cate Blanchett does both. From "Hedda Gabler" to "A Streetcar Named Desire" to 2012's "Uncle Vanya," her every appearance on a New York stage turned into a sold-out event.
So the Aussie's return this summer — a high point of the just-announced 2014 Lincoln Center Festival — is a big deal.
Even more exciting is that the "Blue Jasmine" star will share the stage with another high-voltage actress: France's Isabelle Huppert ("The Piano Teacher").
The icing on the cake? Having the dynamic duo play perverse, manipulative sisters in a revival of Jean Genet's provocative 1947 play "The Maids."
The snazzy-looking production premiered in Sydney last June and runs at City Center Aug. 6 to 16.
Other festival highlights include Mieczyslaw Weinberg's sprawling, avant-garde opera "The Passenger" taking over the Park Avenue Armory, and the first joint visit by the Bolshoi Ballet, Opera, Orchestra and Chorus.
That should be another lip-smacking delight, as the Bolshoi is known for high drama on stage and off: Last year, a disgruntled dancer set up a hit on the ballet's artistic director, who was disfigured in an acid attack. You can't make this stuff up.

A former head of NASA yesterday blasted the space agency's surprising new goal of making Muslim countries feel good about their contributions to science, math and engineering as a "perversion" of its original mission.
"NASA was chartered by the 1958 Space Act to develop the arts and sciences of flight in the atmosphere and in space and to go where those technologies will allow us to go," Michael Griffin, who headed the agency under President George W. Bush, told the San Francisco Examiner.
"That's what NASA does for the country. It is a perversion of NASA's purpose to conduct activities in order to make the Muslim world feel good about its contributions to science and mathematics."
NASA's current administrator, Charles Bolden, recently said that President Obama told him the agency's "foremost" mission was to "to reach out to the Muslim world."
The space agency yesterday released a statement clarifying its mission, saying, "NASA's core mission is exploration . . . Inherent to the success of that mission is cooperation and collaboration with other nations."
