Keeping Your Truckee Home Secure
We always have a hard time leaving Truckee but it's even harder when we don't feel like our homes are secure. The feeling of being so far away from your home can be stressful! Even though Truckee is filled with an amazing and honest community, there are many possibilities of breached security during an absence. And because we live in the mountains, there are always opportunities for hungry animals or unexpected weather to create damage. Don't spend your vacation worrying about your home! We gathered some helpful tools to protect your home and secure your piece of mind.
Burglars and Theft
Create an Illusion: One way to add security is to give the illusion that someone is still home. You can do this easily by putting prominent lights on a timer. Another simple allusion is the wireless deadbolt. This will allow you to unlock and lock the door from your cell phone. It's even helpful when you're in town or if you run a vacation rental because you can allow in maintenance workers or guests when you're running around town.
Surveillance: A very simple and free security measure is your neighbors! Get to know the friendly faces around you and exchange numbers. Before going out of town or leaving for the season, let them know. If they see something out of the ordinary, they'll be the first to know. A step above that is video surveillance and alarm systems. SafeWise recommends five different companies in the area for home security systems. Find them here.
Nature and Wildlife
Check the Weather: If you leave the house during winter, watch out for large storms and check in online to see how your neighbors and community has been affected by the storm. If it's anything like the 2016/17 winter, you can try to stay on top of damage before summertime. Even if you leave your house in the spring, summer, or fall, random lightning storms and flooding can be an issue. If you are gone for entire seasons at a time, a property manager is a big help in mitigating these issues.
Clean Sweep: Wildlife is one of our biggest fears when we're away from home! Hungry bears know how to break into houses. Unfortunately, no matter if you leave all food and trash stashed away properly, bears may still be attracted to good scents in your house. It is essential to clean thoroughly before you leave, including: take out the trash, store food properly or remove it completely from the house, sweep crumbs, clean BBQs and area around BBQs, and shut and lock all windows and doors. If you are gone for long periods of time, you might consider electric fences. You can secure your entire perimeter with an electric fence or use electric bungees in high traffic areas (doors, windows, crawl spaces, deck entrances, etc.). Many local companies can help with this. Finally, you should read the official Bear Safety guide from the Bear League. Find it here.

What Do We Mean When We Say "Missional Community?"
Over the past several years, I have written here and in our newsletter about missional communities. Liz and I have shared stories about trying to start a missional community here in Clontarf. And we have shared our hope of helping to start missional communities across the city of Dublin. That all sounds great...if you know what we mean when we say missional community.

How our mental model affects usEveryone builds a mental model based on at least three assumptions:
- Reality exists
- We form a model of reality through interaction and observation
- Models with predictive capability are better than those without
Our mental model of reality has assumed it's current shape from the second we were born until today. Each aspect and angle of this model is based on observations, interaction and deduction.
Our choice of action is then determined by the outcome we predict based on our own model.
The problem with our mental model
"All models are wrong, some are more useful than others" - another quote I picked up somewhere.
We do not know reality. We can't. We only can form a "pretty likely model of reality" - and that model only exists in our mind! The shape of our mental model is determined by the interactions we had - and the observations we made. Since we are neither omniscient nor omnipotent, we didn't have some important interactions and haven't made some important observations - or have misinterpreted some observations.
This means our mental model of reality usually suffers from three key drawbacks:
- Incompleteness
- Inconsistency
- Incongruence
Incompleteness means that there are events beyond our comprehension.
For example: I don't understand why there are black swans in Australia. I have never bothered to learn how this came to be, so I couldn't explain why Swans can be white or black, but not green.
Inconsistence means that if we scrutinously considered everything we know, we would realize that multiple things we assume as "true" individually can't be "true" together.
For example: I consider Tim to be a nice person, and I am aware that Tim is not nice to Alice - so what is it then? Is Tim nice - or not?
Incongruence means that different people models of reality may either fail to overlap (I know what you don't) or mismatch (I think this is true, you think it's false).
For example: The UKIP supporters think it's good to leave the EU, while the EU proponents think that's a terrible idea. Either party drew their conclusion based on a number of assumptions and facts that may either be unknown, weighted differently or dismissed by the other party.
Mental model housekeeping
1. Our mental models are just that - models.
2. We benefit from having a more accurate model.
3. Incongruent models can be aligned through open interaction with other people.
Now, let us discuss some methods for doing this housekeeping:
Aligning conceptsWe have so many inconsistent concepts, just like the one above.
Once we become aware where these inconsistencies lie,
we can uncover the reason why we have these concepts.
Next, we formulate a hypothesis for the conflict, then design an experiment to disprove at least one of the concepts.
It could be that we failed to disprove any of them - in which case, we probably haven't dug deeply enough and need a better hypothesis.
It could be that we managed to disprove all of them - in which case, we may need to forget everything leading us to either conclusion.
If we disproved all but one of them, the best way forward is to discard the ideas that no longer hold true. Especially in this case, it could be that even what we believe now is still wrong: We just don't know until we have more information.
How do I align concepts - in practice?
It's quite simple. When I discover that I have conflicting ideas, I mentally rephrase "Tim hates me." and "Tim is a friendly person" into "I assume Tim hates me". Then, I ask myself, "Why would Tim hate me?" - then I may go to Tim, and be quite upfront: "I feel we don't get along very well.". Tim might meet that with an unexpectedly friendly: "What can I do so you feel more comfortable?" - my first assumption is already invalidated. My model is more consistent now.
Pruning loose ends
We are bound by so many concepts that arise seemingly without reason.For example, Tim said something bad to me yesterday - and now I have the concept "Tim doesn't like me". My concept is not founded on a sufficient amount of evidence.
This concept now binds my interactions with Tim, even though it is merely a loose end in my mental model. The more loose ends I carry around, the less freedom I have in my interactions with my environment.
Through introspection, we might drill into the "Why" of picking up this loose end and tying it to our model. In our attempts to do this, we complicate our model by adding numerous assumptions without any foundational evidence.
We need to become aware of what our "loose ends" are - and consciously discard such concepts.
This helps us form a more consistent model of reality.
This approach is based on Occam's Razor, the suggestion that "The model relying on the fewest assumptions is often the best"
How do I prune loose ends - in practice?
Tim might actually have said to me "Dude, you messed that one up." I can now integrate that sentence into my model right away, filling the missing gaps with unspoken assumptions, one of which may be "Tim doesn't like me". I can also choose to simply say "Yup", and regardless of whether I agree with Tim or not, I simply don't attribute these words to my understanding of Tim's relationship with me.
In retrospect, I may need to be aware that "Tim hates me" and question myself, "How much evidence does support this concept?" - unless the evidence is already overwhelming, the easiest thing may be to simply go to Tim and say, "Want to have a chat?", seeing if that chat generates evidence to the contrary.
Probably the hardest way of pruning loose ends is to drop the concept as it pops up. Since our concepts are hardwired in our brain, pruning like this becomes a difficult exercise of psychological intervention: becoming aware of the dubious concept, then redirecting thoughts into a different direction when the concept manifest. This method does not resolve the underlying inconsistency and is therefore unhelpful.
Resolving dissonanceMy concepts often don't match your concepts, because neither my experience nor my reasoning process is the same as yours.
The "easy way" to resolve dissonance is war - just get rid the person who doesn't agree with you. Unfortunately, that doesn't mean that your model of reality got any better.
When our own strive is to obtain the best possible model, we need to attune our model based on others' ideas and reasoning.
First, we need to expose ourselves to others' thoughts.
Then, we need to discover where our thoughts mismatch those of others.
Next, we try to uncover which assumptions lead to the mismatch.
Together, we can then form a hypothesis of which assumptions are more likely.
Then, we can begin aligning concepts together, coming up with a shared model that is more congruent.
Resolving dissonance requires two additional key assumptions:
1. It could be that my model is wrong.
2. I can find out enough about other models to integrate a portion into my own model.
How do I resolve dissonance - in practice?
Nothing easier - and nothing nothing harder than this. Just talk. Unbiased.
Have an open conversation without predetermined outcome.
Punching holesWe typically assume that what we know and observe is true. Then, we build new assumptions on that. Very rarely do we spend time trying to disprove what we know.
The Scientific Method is based on the idea that we can't prove anything to be true, but we can prove something to be not true. We consider as "probably a good explanation" by exclusion, i.e. when every experiment to prove that the opposite failed. So, our goal should be to come up with an experiment to prove us wrong.
We can improve our mental model by using this approach to try and punch holes into our model.
If we succeed - our model is bad and we can discard the assumptions we just invalidated.
If we don't succeed - it still doesn't mean our model is "right", it only means that it's the best we have for the time being.
How do I punch holes - in practice?
When my model assumes "Tim is unfriendly", the most effective way to punch holes is creating situations where I am exposed to Tim in settings which minimize the likelihood for him to be unfriendly.
SummaryFrequent clearing our mental model is very helpful in improving our understanding of the world around us - and our interactions with others.
The exercise of cleaning always requires the following:
1. Being consciously aware of our assumptions.
2. Doing something about it.
3. Never being content with our current understanding.
Simply starting is the best way.

So, you have finally made a decision to sell your property and of course, you are eager to get a high price. You contact a real estate agent and after prolonged discussions, you finally agree on the selling price. However, if you have the time and the money, you can make some further improvements that will not only boost the price but also attract more potential buyers. It is not necessary to make huge renovation projects, though. After all, your aim is to turn a good profit rather than spending a fortune on a property you do not intend to live in. Here are the key areas you should pay attention to:
Kitchen and bathroom are probably the most important places in every house and no buyer would be impressed if they are in a poor condition. If necessary, change the kitchen cabinets and countertops and fix the minor scratches on the floor. As for the bathroom, replace the broken tiles (if any) and fix the leaking faucets and the siphon.
Cleanliness is an essential detail and under no circumstances should you invite buyers to the house before you make sure it is sparkling clean. If you have had tenants, they must have performed an end of tenancy cleaning London but it would not hurt to take a look around and check if everything is fine.
What about the living room? Of course, it would be excessive to replace the furniture but you can refurbish your old ones. You can also ask your house cleaners London to polish the wooden parts of the furniture with a special detergent.
Since your priority is to make buyers feel that this is their home, you have to make it cosy and welcoming. For that purpose, you can place beautiful flowers and get rid of all unpleasant odours that can ruin the good first impression.
Once you are done with these, you can be sure that you will get a decent amount of money for your property.

Virtually ruling out any tie-up with Samajwadi Party as suggested by Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar, BSP supremo Mayawati Saturday ridiculed the attempts by Mulayam Singh Yadav's party to form a grand alliance in Uttar Pradesh ahead of the assembly polls due early next year. Hours after Mulayam brought members of the erstwhile Janata Parivar on one platform during his party's silver jubilee celebrations at Janeshwar Mishra Park in Lucknow, Mayawati said that any "mahagathbandhan" with the ruling party in UP in it will directly help BJP gain power.
"There remains no possibility of any alliance with the SP after they (SP) walked out of the mahagathbandhan in Bihar last year," Mayawati said. "Other secular parties should be cautious – any alliance with the SP will mean strengthening the BJP. Any support to the SP will pave the way for an anti-poor, anti-Dalit, anti-minority BJP government."
Speaking with reporters at her residence here, Mayawati said, "The initiative to form a grand alliance is a very narrow-minded conspiracy to mislead the people. The SP government has done nothing that can make other parties ally with it."
Mayawati said the differences among the family members of Mulayam have been visible at the recent party events, and the acrimony is visible on the faces of party leaders and in the clashes between their supporters at these different programmes. "The SP is a divided family. Its public support is divided. In this situation, the candidates of Shivpal Yadav will be made to lose by the other group. Muslims should not waste their vote on SP," she said.
The former UP chief minister alleged that if the SP government had not been in "tacit understanding with the BJP to spread communal tension in the state", Mulayam would not have had to prove his "secular" credentials by gathering leaders of other parties. She also said that most parties that have shown interest in talks with SP for alliance have "limited influence" in the state.
She said the SP's attempts to create the alliance also shows it has already conceded defeat.
Dismissing possibilities of alliance with any other party, Mayawati said the BSP's ideology of "dismantling the unequal social structure" is not shared by any other party in the country. "The BSP is not just a political party; it is also a social movement," she said. "The party has been following the ideology of Babasaheb Ambedkar to attain social change. We feel no other party is genuinely devoted to this cause. So BSP will never ally with any other party."
Targeting the SP and the BJP for their respective yatras – Chief Minister Akhilesh Yadav's Samajwadi Vikas Yatra and BJP president Amit Shah's Parivartan Yatra – started this week, Mayawati said if the BJP-led Central government had fulfilled even one-third of its promises made during the Lok Sabha elections, the party would not have had to take out a parivartan yatra to "divert people's attention".
Mayawati also took on the BJP for not including any Dalit leader on the party's raths for parivartan yatra and said the saffron party has realised that it will not get any Dalit votes in next year's elections. "Soon they may also abandon Babasaheb Ambedkar," she said.
She said SP would not have had to start a vikas yatra if it had not "conspired with BJP to spread communal violence" in the state and focused only on the "family's vikas".

Braces work by applying tension to your teeth and the periodontal ligaments that are anchoring them in their sockets. If your teeth only need a modest amount of realignment from braces or Invisalign®, you might be a good candidate for a clear, plastic retainer in Shreveport, Louisiana.
As the name implies, this style of retainer is made from a durable clear, plastic material. Your orthodontist, Dr. Michael R. Wiesner, will design it to custom fit the new position of your teeth. This makes it difficult for the casual observer to even notice you're wearing it.
In general, you'll need to use the retainer during the prescribed times for a total duration equal to the amount of time you needed your braces. Cleaning and maintaining your clear, plastic retainer each day will keep the total duration of time you need to use it to the bare minimum.
While you have the clear, plastic retainer in your mouth, you can drink normally. When eating, you will need to take the retainer out to prevent damage. When you're not wearing it, you should keep it in the case provided. Improvising a case with a plastic bag or a napkin should only be a last resort.
You should rinse the retainer to remove lingering food particles and plaque every time you take it out of your mouth. You can refresh your clear, plastic retainer each night by soaking it in a mixture of half cold water and half antiseptic mouthwash.
If you notice some plaque buildup, you can gently brush the retainer with a soft-bristled toothbrush and nonabrasive toothpaste. Try to avoid using abrasive toothpaste as this could dull the plastic material and make it more noticeable when you're wearing it.
If you have any questions about how to properly clean and maintain your plastic retainer, you can always call (318) 688-9330 to speak with someone at A Brighter Smile Dental Care.

Prompt Handyman Services
Ronnie Baker / Staff Photo – Owner Holly Kreisner shows client Alicia Bell floor samples for her home.
By Kim Williams, firstname.lastname@example.com
Published: Friday, October 1, 2010 6:29 PM CDT
Everyone bustles around busy as bees in the city, whether it is Christmas time or not. Since schedules are packed full of activities, events, outings and engagements, some people never have the time to get things done around the house like they would like to.
Holly Kreisner, owner of Mr. Fixit Fast, knows just how true this is and created a business to help residents complete makeover jobs and other household maintenance that they may not have time for.
"We provide home repair and remodeling services to the area east of I-35 and north of 635, focusing on the Plano, Allen and McKinney suburbs," Kreisner said. "In October I will have been in this business one year."
Ronnie Baker / Staff Photo – Holly Kreisner, owner of Mr. Fixit Fast, shows client Alicia Bell floor samples for her home.
Kreisner worked for more than 25 years in the apparel/home textile business prior to her new business venture.
"I worked for companies such as Dillard's and JC Penney as a buyer and product developer, Kreisner said. "For the last decade I traveled the globe for my own company sourcing product, designing textiles, apparel and homelines and supplying large companies throughout the U.S."
Kreisner wanted to find something she could do locally as she moved into retirement that did not require travel.
"Something different from what I had done all those years but would occasionally incorporate some of my design talents," Kreisner said. "I also liked the idea of a service business, working with people, solving problems, making things easier for them. I had experience building my own home, remodeling homes, working with contractors and always enjoyed it."
Kreisner lived in Plano from 1997 through 2008. She now resides in Allen. Kreisner chose to move to Plano because of the reputation of the schools. "This turned out to be a great choice for our son," Kreisner said. "Since Plano is so close to Allen, and I am so very familiar with Plano, it made perfect sense to market to it as well as Allen."
Kreisner explained that she noticed a true need in the community and was excited that she could fill that need with her experience and creativity.
"The No. 1 benefit of doing business with us is the talented, reliable, knowledgeable handymen we have, Kreisner said. "I cannot say enough good things about them. They show up when they say they will, have the skills needed to get the jobs done. They are honest and trustworthy." Kreisner said that it has taken a full year to put together a strong team – one she believes in and knows that her clients can too.
"That is why I say that 'I am the woman behind the men between you and home improvement,'" Kreisner said. "I have heard so many horror stories of people that come to start projects and never finish or are disappointed with the work. This, of course, is not the case with Mr. Fixit Fast – we stand behind our services."
Kreisner explained that she runs criminal and reference checks on every handyman she employs. "I would also say our other benefit is our free estimates, quick availability and reasonable prices," Kreisner said. "The services we offer include plumbing, electrical, drywall, painting, carpentry, granite counter tops, and we specialize in all types of flooring including wood, tile, carpet and vinyl."
Kreisner recently joined the Plano Chamber of Commerce in July, but has already experienced firsthand the benefits of becoming a member. "I try to go every Friday morning for the Business Interchange. It is the most unusual event of its kind I have ever attended – with singing, dancing and costumes," Kreisner said. "It is more like entertainment than work. Everyone made me feel so much at home so quickly."
Kreisner enjoys the networking opportunity at this and believes it is a two-fold venture. "I found sources for services I needed as well as customers for my products," Kreisner said. "We have even been asked to fix some things at the chamber office too. It is a very warm place. I am pleased that I have joined."
Another chamber activity Kreisner has participated in is attending two women's luncheons. "These were also beneficial. I received leads that led to business and also did business with someone I met there," Kreisner said. "The thing that surprised me was that it was pouring rain that day, and I figured there would be only a few people there – and the room was packed. These women are very dedicated to the chamber and its activities."
When Kreisner received a weekly newcomer list to send out information on the company, she was excited. "New homeowners are six times more likely to need a handyman than any other homeowner, so this service is extremely helpful to me; and of course, I have received excellent leads from this method in just this short time."
Kreisner is married to Mark Keene, a teacher in Garland ISD who has gone in opposite directions of Kreisner's career. "By the way, he is not a handyman, but he is very supportive regarding the business," Kreisner said.
Her son is studying political science at Trinity University in San Antonio and considers Pinky, their spoiled pet Havanese, part of the family.
Lindsey Kleinhans, membership development manager for the Plano Chamber of Commerce, is excited to have Kreisner in the fold. "From the day that Holly joined the Plano Chamber of Commerce, she has been diligent in attending every networking event that she possibly can," Kleinhans said. "She is a member of multiple chambers and stays busy utilizing the resources provided by each. Holly is a true believer in the 'power of networking' to market her business face to face in the business community and because of this, she is successful in her business."

Guest Authors and MOBA?
I'm thinking about a guest authors series.Or uploading LoL games with friends (Currently 3 I know play it: Andrew W, Murad L, and Stephanie W.). Most likely the former, and possibly in addition the latter, yet not only the latter. My ideas for a guest author: GM, RF, the protagonist from my novel, Deidre Rhodes, or Sierra, a main character. So, in conclusion, my novel is being worked on (finally), I might have a series with guests (fictional or not) on a MOBa or a post, and ENJOY THIS MUSIC!
Parícutin is a Mexican cinder cone volcano that was the first to be observed by human beings during its short lifespan outside of a village of the same name now buried beneath igneous rock. Three weeks before it first appeared, rumbles resembling thunder were heard throughout the village, which were actually deep earthquakes. It appeared on February 20, 1943 as fissure in a cornfield. In a week it was five stories tall, in a month it was able to be seen from afar. When it finished erupting in 1952, it had killed three people by lightning, reached 1,391 feet above the landscape, and two villages lay covered beneath lava and ash. Since most cinder cones are monogenetic, any more eruptions will most likely be in a new location.

After weeks of speculation that the U.K government would ask social media sites to participate in shutdowns during times of crisis, the government seeks no special powers. Three weeks ago, London saw almost a full week of riots that caused damage, injury and death. Following the incident, British Prime Minister, David Cameron, placed some of the blame on social media, arguing that "[e}veryone watching these horrific actions will be stuck by how they were organised via social media. Free flow of information can be used for good. But it can also be used for ill. And when people are using social media for violence we need to stop them."The statement was supported by many, including Conservative MP Louise Mensch who argued that shutting down social media was more or less the same as a road closure. However, not everyone was so keen. Many freedom of speech and Internet ethics advocates were unimpressed by the call to shutdown social media sites.Last Thursday, August 18th 2011, Home Secretary Theresa May called a Home office summit and invited not only the Met police and civil servants, but also representatives from Research In Motion (the makers of Black Berry), Twitter, and Facebook. Prior to the meeting, it was reported by The Guardian that May was likely to ask for concessions from the social media giants during times of crisis; however, it was expected that all the companies would refuse such concessions.On Friday, August 19th, it turned out that May did not request additional powers in times of crisis. According to a statement from Facebook, May "set the tone clearly that we were not there to discuss restricting Internet services." The statement continued: "We welcome the fact that this was a dialogue about working together to keep people safe rather than about imposing new restrictions on Internet services."Concurrent with Facebook's statements throughout the UK riots, and the aftermath of the event, Facebook also noted: "When we are dealing with situations that are heightened or sensitive such as the U.K. riots, then content relating to this specific issue is prioritized. As a result, the team works around the clock to ensure that take-down times for such content is decreased and content that straddles the line of acceptability is closely monitored."After the meeting, the government stated that it: "looked at how law enforcement and the networks can build on the existing relationships and cooperation to crack down on the networks being used for criminal behavior." After significant speculation on the matter, it feels like a somewhat anti-climatic finish. However, the debate leading up to the meeting is an important moment in social media's history, particularly as it pertains to freedom of speech and ethics. It has been argued that if the government requested shutdowns, and the social media companies agreed, it would set a precedent for future crises not just in the UK but around the globe. This also sets a precedent. The public and social media giants were very clear: social media shutdowns are censorship and will not be taken lightly.

In our current society stress is a common phenomenon. I have been under stress for the last week or at least I felt uneasy. It`s a terrible feeling even more when falling into sleep is extremely problematic. I am not relaxed at all since thousands of thoughts are on my mind.
But what happened that I feel that way, which I haven't felt for a long period of time? I think I know what happened!

Warner Brothers very correctly thinks it would be "insensitive" for them to report their box office numbers for The Dark Knight Rises this weekend, so instead they're delaying announcing their returns until Monday out of respect for the victims of the tragedy in Colorado.
The studio released a statement late Friday evening saying they were going to put off reporting the numbers for the summer's biggest movie out of respect for the 12 people killed, and more injured in yesterday's shooting.
Traditionally the studio would be updating us about the movie's performance, and likely celebrating, throughout the weekend, but instead they're going to release the news in one lump sum on Monday morning. The movie is expected to be a huge financial hit for the studio, with many professional and unprofessional estimators assuming it would be one of, if not the, biggest box office openings of all time.
A studio insider told The Hollywood Reporter it would be "insensitive" for the company to report the numbers. In a separate report, THR says rival studios and Rentrak, the company that collects box office data for the studios, might follow Warner Bros' lead and not report this weekends numbers. It's expected The Dark Knight Rises took in somewhere around $90 million on Friday, putting it on track to be in the top three opening weekends of all time.

text: Several protesters received intravenous therapy drips during the hunger strike that lasted three days [AFP] A hunger strike that called for peace in Afghanistan's southern province has ended after the country's Council of Religious Scholars, known as the Ulema Council, vowed to help reach a deal between the government and Taliban. The strike, a desperate bid to get the Taliban and Afghan government reach a peace deal, started late on Thursday in the provincial capital Lashkar Gah, after more than 20 people were killed by a car bomb blast outside a sports stadium on March 23. Activists pitched tents at the site of the attack, where Afghan men, women and children were holding a sit-in hunger strike. At least 12 people were hospitalised before the members of the Ulema Council intervened to end the strike. The sit-in will continue, however. "Early morning today [Sunday], members of the council visited our tents and sat with us promising that we will work together on a peace plan to present to the government and the Taliban," Abdul Salam, a protester, told Al Jazeera. "We are hoping to come with a plan as soon as possible with the support of the Ulema," Salam said. Afghanistan suffered more than 10,000 civilian casualties in 2017, as deadly attacks killed and injured more people than any previous year in the war-torn country, according to the UN Assistance Mission in Afghanistan's annual report.

Telemedicine facilitates patient care, improves patient engagement and efficiently uses resources. It isn't here to substitute personal visits to doctor's clinics or hospitals (in-person visits). A recent study published in Journal of ISAKOS mentions that the use of telemedicine in the field of sports medicine results in efficient patient care and reduced costs. It also rises patient satisfaction levels as compared to in-person visits.
This study was conducted by Alfred Atanda Jr., MD, and his colleagues on patients visiting a paediatric orthopaedic centre. They studied clinic visits and the wait times for patients younger than 18 years. These patients either made a in-person visit or telemedicine visits. The researchers compared both these patients by using a satisfaction survey and calculated costs incurred by the patient and the department.
As compared to the in-patient visits, telemedicine visits were for shorter duration and the wait time was less too. Time spent with the healthcare provider was more along with lower labour and travel costs. In the field of healthcare, satisfaction level of patients is of prime importance. This study showed that more than 90% of patients who opted for telemedicine visits were extremely satisfied with the quality of patient care. It was found that patients saved 85 miles of driving. The per visit costs too reduced by $50 and per patient in labour cost reduced $24.
There is no doubt that in-person visits are necessary at times considering the severity and need of patient condition. But, if telemedicine is combined with in-person visits both the methods can be a blessing to the field of healthcare.

Why I Fight for 2A
As the media breathlessly fawns over "March for Our Lives" gun control advocates, Second Amendment supporters are demonized as child murderers. Not only is that depiction inaccurate, it's immoral: I'm no "gun nut;" you're probably not either, and falsely slandering us as such does damage to society as a whole. Here's the truth about the Second Amendment, those who support it, and why it all matters.

Despite what most people think,good nutrition is just a scientific term for healthy wholesome eating.Give your body what it need to grow,rejuvenate,function and fight off disease and infection and you can live to be 100 years.
But trust human beings,we hate rules and through out our life span we often break more than a few.
Nutritionist then are just the angels on our right shoulder reminding us that our bodies need more than fried foods,soft drinks and alcohol to get by.
So for those who can't stand nutrition speak ,here are a few rules you will never forget.
1.Fresh is best.
This is one rule you should never forget,vegetables and fruits in season are always cheap and you get the most nutritional value from them.So always remember that when shopping.
Fresh vegetables always taste best,better than anything from a can or bag for that matter.
2.Read food labels-always
Most of the time when we go shopping for anything from cereals,to tomato sauce to many food that is out of a can or box,we just automatically put it in the shopping cart without reading what ingredients are in it.
Always read your labels and if you recognize none of the ingredients used to make that tub of margarine or can of tomato paste,leave it on the shelf.
If you can't recognize most of what is listed as ingredients or if it reads like the periodic table in high school chemistry then it is not good for you or your body.Put it back on the shelf
3.Your health is in your hands
"The key to good health is in your hands" may often sound cliché but yes it true.
Only you can determine what end s up on your plate and in your body ,make the right choices.
4.Nature's best kept secrets
Mother nature has provided herbs and spices that when added to food ,take it to a whole new level.
I am thinking ginger,garlic,rosemary,cinnamon,oregano,mint,basil .Most of them are available in almost all supermarkets either whole or in powdered form
You do not need that bottle of commercial food flavouring!
5.If its being advertised it may not be good for your body
If you look at most food adverts,90% of the time they involve things that aren't too good for you.
From soft drinks,to alcohol to cigarettes,and everything in between consists of items your doctor has either warned you about or asked you to take moderate amounts of.
Reason being that most of these items that make up an advertising company executive see dollar signs have no nutritional value other than the feel good factor they make you get.
I am yet to see vegetables being advertised.
So there goes,5 simple rules you can live by and if you have to break them remember take everything your doctor says is bad of you in moderation.

2009 Hyundai Genesis : Luxury Car Clone With A Definite Edge
Ever watched those TV commercials where a well-known branded product is pitied against its competition?
I'd bet you have. It's an effective way to drive home the point about the former superiority when compared to its fledging rival.
But for top-seeded Lexus GS460 and newcomer 2009 Hyundai Genesis, the exact opposite occurs.
Stripped of its nameplate, the 2009 Hyundai Genesis looks identical with its Lexus counterpart. In fact, car enthusiasts say it's almost an exact clone, and more—V8 engine, smooth aerodynamic designs, pure soft leather on dashboard and door panels, not to mention its seductive navigation system and multimedia accessories.
As for fuel efficiency, the newcomer trashes competition with a perfect 10. Genesis puts in a rated 368 horsepower using regular unleaded while Lexus chalks up 342 horsepower using premium. A significant savings in these times of rising gas prices.
So what's the catch? Hyundai comes at an almost whooping 30% discount against its luxury counterpart. While Lexus sells at $50,000, a fully loaded Hyundai starts at $38,000. But the distinction doesn't end there. It offers 5 years or 60,000 miles warranty compared to Lexus 4 years or 50,000 miles.
However, some car honchos believe that tag price is not the sole consideration when buying a sedan. The company image behind the car, personality, as well as impressions of power, play crucial purchase factors. And Lexus has all these stack in its favor.
My verdict? Hyundai rips an edge over its competition. Why would anyone settle for a bland carrot when he can have a whole burger at a much lesser cost?
3 comments:
Styling is subjective, however there is no denying that Hyundai stole... err... borrowed design cues from Lexus, BMW, and Mercedes. The Genesis is not a bad looking car because it looks like a Lexus or the aforementioned automakers. Perhaps the only original Hyundai styling cue on the Genesis is the grille which looks hideous IMO.
The GS came out in 2006 whereas the Genesis is all new for 2009. It's like comparing the new Camry or Accord to the Sonata that came out a few years ago. Camry and Accord will be better because they are newer models.
As for the badge when you buy a Lexus you also get excellent customer service. The last time I had my car serviced it took longer than expected so they gave us gift cards at the restaurant across the street. Hyundai dealers could care less if your service runs long. They are not trained to deal with luxury buyers. You get the same treatment with your Genesis as the other guy getting his Accent fixed.
*badgeless wannabe luxury freak*
My advice to Hyundai: Either get a bunch of good designers before making a luxury car... or just stick to what you're best at doing; making cheap cars
It seems like Hyundai spent all their money in developing the car... they couldn't hire any designers... so they decided to make their car look like a mixture of the Lex GS, BMW 5-series, Merc E-class and the old Middle East-spec Maxima (note the tail lights).... what they wound up was with the badgeless freak (and a weird grille that doesn't exactly complement the front lights)... I'd go for the A6... any day...

Unorthodox treatments for opioid addiction is on the lookout by lawmakers despite lacking a scientific backup for their proposal.
Unorthodox treatments for opioid addiction is on the lookout by lawmakers despite lacking a scientific backup for their proposal.
It was back in 2016 that President Donald Trump defeated Hillary Clinton, 69 to 26 percent in West Virginia. It was in that far-removed year that Gov. Jim Justice outdistanced his Republican opponent, 50 to 42 percent.
CHARLESTON – Three more lawsuits have been filed against the drug distributors who allegedly flooded the state with pain killers and caused the opioid epidemic across the state.
The Mingo County Commission was presented with two additional proposals from attorneys that wish to represent the county in an effort to hold wholesale drug distribution companies accountable for their alleged role in contributing to the opioid drug epidemic in southern W.Va.
CHARLESTON, W.Va. – Five cities and one county are suing drug distributors for fueling the state's opioid epidemic.
Both Nicholas County and the City of Montgomery have retained a Charleston law firm to file a lawsuit against three opioid drug distributors.
GRANVILLE, W.Va. – The Town of Granville has hired legal representation for an additional approach at fighting the regions' opioid problem.
Charles "Rusty" Webb will be representing the Town of Glenville in a lawsuit against three distributors of opioid drugs, similar to the case recently settled by the State of West Virginia for 47 million dollars.
Many in our communities say they are fed up with their tax money going to fight drug crime rather then pave new roads and help schools improve.
CHARLESTON – A Charleston-based personal-injury attorney has been nominated as one of 2016's Legal Leaders.

"At the centre of the process is the KamerMaker, or Room Builder, a scaled–up version of an open–source home 3D–printer, developed with Dutch firm Ultimaker. It uses the same principle of extruding layers of molten plastic, only enlarged about 10 times, from printing desktop trinkets to chunks of buildings up to 2x2x3.5m high.
For a machine–made material, the samples have an intriguingly hand–made finish. In places, it looks like bunches of black spaghetti. There are lumps and bumps, knots and wiggles, seams where the print head appears to have paused or slipped, spurting out more black goo than expected.
'We're still perfecting the technology,' says Heinsman. The current material is a bio–plastic mix, usually used as an industrial adhesive, containing 75% plant oil and reinforced with microfibres. They have also produced tests with a translucent plastic and a wood fibre mix, like a liquid form of MDF that can later be sawn and sanded. 'We will continue to test over the next three years, as the technology evolves,' she says. 'With a second nozzle, you could print multiple materials simultaneously, with structure and insulation side by side.'"
(Oliver Wainwright, 28 March 2014, The Guardian)
"The world's first gun made with 3D printer technology has been successfully fired in the US. The controversial group which created the firearm, Defense Distributed, plans to make the blueprints available online. The group has spent a year trying to create the firearm, which was successfully tested on Saturday at a firing range south of Austin, Texas. Anti–gun campaigners have criticised the project. Europe's law enforcement agency said it was monitoring developments. ...
The idea is that as the printers become cheaper, instead of buying goods from shops, consumers will instead be able to download designs and print out the items at home. But as with all new technologies, there are risks as well as benefits."

"Another important characteristic of organic transistors is the simplicity of the method used to produce them. Inorganic transistors require massive vacuum systems and complex manufacturing processes. However, most organic materials can be dissolved in organic solvents to create 'inks' that can be used to create circuits simply by printing them under normal atmospheric conditions. Printing technology can also be readily adapted to the production of flexible substrates and large substrates. With the methods used to manufacture conventional inorganic transistors, only a few percent of the materials are actually used. Printing is far more efficient, and by optimizing the method it is possible to achieve usage rates as high as 90%. For this reason, this manufacturing method is also attractive from an environmental perspective. Sony is currently conducting research into the fabrication of organic transistors through printing."

Cedeno, who celebrated his 32nd birthday earlier this week, signed a minor league deal with the ChiSox this offseason after being non-tendered by the Rays. He worked his way onto the big league roster and has had a solid season on the South Side, working to a 2.84 ERA with 28 strikeouts against 13 walks along with a 55.4% groundball rate in 25 1/3 innings.
Notably, Cedeno has allowed just one homer this season despite the hitter-friendly nature of Chicago's Guaranteed Rate Field, thanks in part to a robust 55.4 percent ground-ball rate. Interestingly, too, he has not just been effective against opposing lefties — who are hitting just .209/.277/.326 against him — but also against righties, who have managed only a .200/.322/.300 line.
That's a rather impressive showing for a pitcher who sat out almost all of the 2017 season due to arm issues. He had been rather effective in the prior two seasons as well, though he had also been utilized mostly in a specialist capacity (throwing only 87 1/3 total innings in 120 appearances).

My rating: 5 of 5 stars
Holy Crap! Trophy is beyond HOT HOT HOT!!! I am addicted to Alessandra Torre's stories and this book is no different. AHHH! I love this gorgeous, sexy, erotic romance.
Nathan Dumont is a successful, powerful man in Nashville. Half of the town wants to be him and half wants to sleep with him. Unfortunately, part of his life is a mess – four years prior Nathan's finance and love of his life disappeared without a trace. Nathan is doing everything in his power to find her and bring her back including … marrying another woman … YIKES, right???
Candace wants to escape the slippery life she's gotten herself into. She's got nothing to lose so she accepts Nathan's proposal to become his Trophy Wife. Candace moves into her own little mansion with Nathan – her days spent at the country club, dinning with the housewives, and her nights in Nathan's bed as his submissive. But Candace has no idea what she's gotten herself into – Nathan promised no LOVE or romance. Nathan is sexy, brooding and a ball of secrets and contradictions. One minute he is cruel and callous, the next he is sweet and caring. Maybe Candace should have done her research first before signing his contract? Why did Nathan marry Candace? How long can she keep up with the charade of playing a perfect wife but without love and affection, especially when Candace starts to develop romantic feelings for her husband?
I did not read the Dumont Series so this story is all brand new to me. I absolutely love the plot, the characters, the twists and turns and suspense throughout the book. My only hiccup is the relationship Candace has with Nathan's employee/friend. I understand that Candace isn't in a real marriage but rather an agreement signed between two people. I also understand Candace feels isolated and lonely so she is seeking affection elsewhere. Normally, I am not down with bed hopping but in this situation Candace is as good as a free woman so it did not bother me as much. Anyhow, I love a good thrilling story that keeps me on my toes, guessing and anticipating and this book did exactly that for me. The chemistry, the angst, the push and pull relationship between Nathan and Candace are all delicious. The chemistry, the sexual tension and intimacy is downright erotic and intoxicating. The plot is absolutely brilliant. I loved it – sexy, romantic, suspenseful, addictive.

Why taking a design-led approach is the best way to create better billing experiences
With all the controversies surrounding inaccurate bills and bill shock, the need to overhaul billing communications is increasingly well understood among organizations. However, this isn't just a technical issue, getting the design of a bill right makes the bill easier to understand, more attractive to read and results in real business benefits.
Billing communications have been the traditional bearers of unwanted tidings, the dull spreadsheet detailing consumption ending in a demand for cash, but the days of biller neglect of this powerful channel are ending. Organizations are starting to notice that attractively presented, clear and personalized bills enable users to understand their consumption better, result in fewer call center interactions and create greater customer satisfaction as well as providing a regular means for organizations to communicate with customers.
The design of the bill is the customer's window into their relationship with the biller. In the telecoms industry, this window contains a growing number of different data points as the services provided proliferate and more onetime transactions become part of the billing mix. In other sectors, such as utilities, digital transformation and industry changes are driving bill complexity. Electricity bills, for example, now feature information on electricity being provided to the grid from home-owners' renewable energy generation alongside their consumption. This complexity is breeding the need for greater clarity in data presentation.
Complexity needs clarity
Greater depth of information delivered in a clear and attractive way is the self-evident function of effective design. However, good design cannot be an afterthought added retrospectively to billing communications. A billing communications platform needs to be constructed with presentation in mind. It's not just about selecting pretty colors, although the science behind color choice is important.
"Being design-led means always thinking about how your design affects the end user, and putting them first," explains Brendan O'Rourke, the design manager at Brite:Bill. "We don't constrain design by force-fitting it to our technology, instead our technology works to support our customers' chosen bill designs."
The process of creating excellent design begins with gaining a better understanding of the customer organization's needs which forms the foundation upon which design-led billing communications can be developed. "We follow a process of detailed scoping and analyzing with our customers. Here we work with different parts of the business including brand, IT, sales and legal so we gather a complete understanding of what the business wants to achieve from a bill design," adds O'Rourke. "We then enter an iterative design phase where we consult on elements like bill aesthetics, language and the major billing pain points. Here we will always be an advocate for the end user, meaning all design discussions or debates should answer to 'what information is most important for the end user?' and 'what's the best way to communicate and display this?'."
Analysis first, hardware later
Brite:Bill draws on many years experience of working with service providers and the team of designers are subject matter experts when it comes to information design and presentment. Brite:Bill typically will deploy its bill analysis technology to understand the operator's existing bills and products, thereby ensuring that it is familiar with the data that is available to support a list of design scenarios.
"Our experience tells us what works and what doesn't. Once we are familiar with the billing data that's available, we draw on our past deployments and make recommendations on where we can enhance specific pieces of communication." says O'Rourke. "We work towards an optimal bill design, then technology-wise we identify how we achieve this, for example, what extra data feeds are required."
The design process moves through three distinct stages: first Brite:Bill undertakes aesthetic enhancement, then it focuses on presenting engaging customer data and then it addresses functional customer messaging. Only then does attention turn to the technical side of the deployment. "We believe good design should be invisible. We don't expect plaudits for designing a bill, but if a user is frustrated in any way in trying to understand a piece of communication, then there are faults in the design that we need to fix," explains O'Rourke.
The important aspect of the design-led approach is to focus first on design before technical and development teams become involved. "We're not working in a technically constrained way," confirms O'Rourke. "The focus of our work is to try and solve problems for the provider's users and we wouldn't want to be restricted by what we can and can't use. We look ahead at what customers want and solve the technical challenges later."
However, O'Rourke does acknowledge that the technical challenges are significant. "Obviously there are technical constraints but our mission is first to solve the customers' billing communication problems," he says. "A legacy system will output lots of mismatches in package descriptions on the bill, for example, causing confusion to the end user when they see a different package name to the plan they signed up for. This is a big issue. We work ahead to recategorise the way organisations' billing information is displayed and to make sure each customer's bill contains what they would expect to see."
There are also business priorities that must be considered. "As well as system constraints, our design experts will work towards cost saving business goals," explains O'Rourke. "For example, some operators only print using one colour so we draw on our experience to maximize the impact of single-color billing communications. Other operators' priorities are to reduce the number of pages they print and send so we work to condense the vital information into a smaller amount of space."
Being design-led means Brite:Bill is able to determine where improvements can be made, identify what organizations' current bills are missing and make sure new bills provide a friendly, informative communications channel between provider and customer. That's a striking contrast to the impersonal, hard to read, visually unappealing bills traditionally sent out by organizations.

Paper Can't Protect Your Personal InformationBut Your Shredder Can!
So you've heard all the buzz about switching from paper filing to electronic filing and you want to try it. Sounds simple enough. Transfer all of the information from your filing cabinet over to your new laptop and toss all the junk to the curb, right? Wrong! Secure document storage on a computer or in a database is one thing, but paper shredding is an absolute must when transferring any type of important personal information from page to the screen.
But why should I have to worry about that?
It costs business owners and private homeowners an estimated $24 billion every year in information theft, and with paper being the most common material in solid waste around the world, that information is pretty easy to get to.
But I don't have a shredder!
Fear not! Paper shredding services are available in nearly every office supply store in the world. Most of the time they will charge a small fee, but free document shredding services are also available. Not only that, but most office spaces (including the one you probably work in) offer onsite shredding services right in the building! On the off chance that they don't, an at-home paper shredder isn't very expensive at all. In fact, shredding documents that contain sensitive information in the privacy of your own home may be preferable since you will be in total control of where and how the waste is handled.
But I just want to switch computers!
Even when switching computers, secure document storage must be taken into account. So all of your files have been moved or copied from one hard drive to another, but even then there are pieces of personal information stored on your old device. Old passwords, online account information, cookies, you name it and it's probably still lurking about. If you want to sell your old device, or even just make sure nobody can access your information, hard drive destruction services are available to you. These services will ensure that all of the information on your hard drive is no longer accessible to anyone.
How do I know what documents can be destroyed?
If you have any personal information that contains old credit card numbers, bank account numbers, or any type of financial information that you no longer need for immediate documentation, it can be destroyed. Things such as old billing statements and receipts can be destroyed as well. Don't risk the theft of your personal information!

The World Order controls the citizens of the United States through the tax exempt foundations. These foundations create and implement government policy through their staff members in key positions in the executive, legislative and judiciary departments.
The foundations create educational policy through their staff members in key positions at every level of the educational system. The foundations control religious doctrine through their staff members in key positions in the leading religious denominations.
"Foundation" is a misleading term; Webster calls it an endowment, but a foundation is really a trust, which Roget states is a "syndicate". If, instead of Rockefeller Foundation, we were to say Rockefeller Syndicate, we would be much closer to the truth.
The same modus operandi used (so successfully in the US Europe and parts of Asia is being used here too
All the terms like Liberal ,Right wing , they throw at each in India are meaningless fluff The Lutyens crowd is basically divided into the globalist shills and the wannabees There are politicians and bureaucrats and military officers who are not part of the globalist flimflam but are probably blissfully unaware of the globalist string pullers Would advise them to start becoming aware by reading

Kavita Ramdas has her fingers in every major NWO group you can imagine She is the Director at the Open Society Foundations ,Strategy Advisor for MADRE, , founded KNR Sisters.From 2012 to 2015 she led the Ford Foundation's operations in South Asia and then was Senior Advisor to Darren Walker, Ford Foundation President. She is a member of Aspen Institute's Henry Crown Fellows Program. Kavita has served on numerous boards including Princeton University, Planned Parenthood Federation of America.

The network connects fellows online as well as at regular events including its flagship event—the Resnick Aspen Action Forum, an annual gathering that brings together Aspen Global Leadership Network fellows and other leaders from Aspen Institute programs and partners
The Resnicks are a perfect example of Talmudic farming having bought massive tracts of desert land land dirt cheap then (mis)used billions of liters of water to irrigate it ( see Dem Sell-out Dianne Feinstein Attempts End-Run to Hand California Water to Billionaire Farmers using cheap Punjabi and Mexican labour to work in their "farms", and whose "business model" is dependent on being able to peddle their funky American almonds and pistachio (badam in Hindi) globally over the much cheaper Iranian nuts see Oligarch Valley: How Beverly Hills billionaire farmers Lynda and Stewart Resnick profit from the Iran sanctions they lobbied for
Which might also explain Donnie boys obsession with bringing back sanctions against Iran
Now just look back at this article (originally published in Upstart magazine where Lady Lynn Rothschild was interviewed about her plans for India )
L.G.: And how did you hit upon the export of fresh fruits and vegetables? I've looked at your history. I don't see any of that in your history unless you have a mean kitchen garden in the country.
Lynn Rothschild Laughs.] Well Evelyn was the closest that we got to agriculture. He's a gentleman farmer in England,…………….So what is the next opportunity? What's next, what's needed, and what's big? ………And from different sources, consultants, businesspeople, we would be given this series of facts about the agricultural sector-that 40 percent of all produce in India goes to waste That China has 60 percent of the arable land of India, but it's 40 percent more productive because of technology. That India is the largest producer of fruits, No. 1 in the world, No. 2 in vegetables, and has only 1 percent of the export market. And if the retail sector isn't ready to buy higher-quality fruit and vegetables, which I always thought they would be-but three years ago, it was less obvious than now-You could export them and be the lowest-cost exporter
But first traditional Indian agriculture needs to be destroyed …….and that process is whether by design or by chance is going on swimmingly well

The Global Program brings 20 – 25 Fellows from countries around the world in all sectors to the U.S. each spring. Each fall a Single Nation, Single Region or Common Interest Program brings to the U.S. a similar number of Fellows.
Shaurya focused his fellowship on exploring public policy development in the U.S., particularly as it relates to perceptions about India, its economy, and the opportunities that it offers. He also focused on how U.S. think tanks are structured and operated, and how they effectively contribute to the shaping of U.S. policy and public opinion

Old Fuss and Feathers
May 29, 1866 - General Winfield Scott died on this day. During his prime, he was America's most revered military leader, with a remarkable career that stretched from the War of 1812 through the Civil War. He fought and won significant battles in wars against the British, the Seminoles and the Mexicans.
Riding a wave of popularity, Scott ran an unsuccessful race for the presidency in 1852.
He was 75 years old and suffering from gout when the Civil War broke out. Even though he was born in Virginia, Scott sided with the Union. He was one of President Lincoln's most trusted advisors on strategy. In fact, Scott was the mastermind behind the Anaconda Plan. This approach called for a naval blockade to cut off the Confederate supply lines and to buy the Union some time to build up their forces. This patient approach was very unpopular, as most of the military leaders at the time were predicting a short and decisive war.
Scott's devotion to military protocol earned him the nickname, "Old Fuss and Feathers." He lived long enough to see the Union victory in the Civil War, and the validation of his Anaconda Plan.

Every style has an originator. A special someone who wears a look in such a way that everyone else wants to as well. Throughout the decades, teenagers have had their idols, and in many cases, tried their darndest to look just like them. Hindsight Idols is a new section about the celebrities, characters and personas that we've wanted so badly to emulate.
This week's Hindsight Idol is: Cher Horowitz.
"Okay, so you're probably going, 'Is this like a Noxzema commercial or what?' But seriously, I actually have a way normal life for a teenage girl."
Of course this section had to be launched with a Love Letter to my favourite teenaged Idol, the character who taught me everything I know about boys, clothes, and makeup, Cher Horowitz from the classic 1995 teen movie, Clueless.
The character of Cher Horowitz was played by Alicia Silverstone. Cher was beautiful, blonde, and popular. She drove a kick ass little white jeep and she had a computer program that chose her school outfits for her (can I explain to you how badly I wanted that?). Cher was definitely Clueless, but her heart was always in the right place, and she was always willing to lend a helping hand.
I personally believe that Cher was responsible for launching the "baby doll" look that was so popular throughout the nineties. In the movie, she wore teensy tiny plaid kilts paired with thigh-high socks, mini-backpacks, and platform shoes. She took notes in class using a pen that had a fluffy tuft of feathers at the tip. Her long blonde hair was always worn straight, but loose, parted down the middle.
I was absolutely obsessed with Cher as an early teen. The irony and sarcasm of the movie was completely lost on me until my adult years. At 13, I was positive that Cher knew all the answers, and if I could just make myself exactly like her then my life would be perfect. I parted my hair down the middle. I said silly things like "as if". I took notes in class with a fluffy feather pen. I bought baby tees and mini backpacks galore.
Sadly, I never came close to being a very good C. H. impersonator. Nor did my life resemble hers at all, no matter how hard I tried. But still, something about her character, and the world in which she existed, gave me hope. It made me smile.
So, Cher Horowitz, The Hindsight Letters would like to salute you with a hearty "Whatever" (*places hands in "W" formation*). Thanks for being such an important fashion inspiration to teenagers everywhere.
We're outtie.

Environmental Scan for the Development of a Provincial Preceptor Website
Process Mapping Report
A process mapping exercise was conducted in 2014 to document the current state for coordinating nursing clinical placements in Saskatchewan, to identify opportunities to streamline the process, and to facilitate communication among the partners. The project report identified 5 improvement themes and 16 recommendations for improving clinical placement coordination and practice education more broadly in Saskatchewan.
Capacity Pilot Project Report
In response to an identified need, to understand and measure student placement capacity in Saskatchewan, a pilot project was conducted in 2015 with the Cypress Health Region. The project report describes the project goals, process, outcomes, lessons learned, and recommendations for expanding capacity work to other Saskatchewan health regions.
Practice Education Checklist Report
The "Building Quality in Practice Education: Self-Assessment Checklist for Corporate Leaders in Health Authorities" was developed in 2007 by the British Columbia Academic Health Council. It supports a comprehensive assessment of practice education infrastructure and processes for quality review, planning and improvement. The checklist was completed in 2015 by nine Saskatchewan RHAs and the provincial cancer agency, to assist in identifying common priorities for the development of a provincial practice education strategy.

Did You Know You Can Blow a Shotgun Barrel off By Shooting Underwater? [VIDEO]
Never, ever stick a gun barrel in the water and fire it.
These guys thought it would be interesting to stick the end of a shotgun barrel underwater and fire it.
Watch and see the catastrophic failure of this poor shotgun barrel.
In hunter safety courses we were told never to fire a gun with an obstructed barrel. These guys fire a shotgun with its barrel about as obstructed as you can get.
This shotgun barrel mishap could have been fatal to the shooter or bystanders. Shrapnel can travel quite farther than you think.
