23 August 2018
Manuel Cortes today welcomed Michael Mathesons announcement that Public Sector bidders will be able to bid for next ScotRail franchise but argued the "wasteful" franchise system needs scrapping altogether.
The report by Common Weal and TSSA "A public future for Scotland's railways" shows that the franchising system costs operators £30million, money Cortes claimed would be better spent on improving ScotRail services.
Cortes said, "Our union has always believed that Scotland's taxpayers deserve the best rail service. Instead of wasting money on consultants to guide them through the franchise process a directly appointed public body could invest in more staff, better rolling stock and better toilets on the trains. The franchise process means passengers pay more and get less"
"It's also disappointing that Matheson has chosen not to use the break clause in Abellio's contract. They've failed to meet their franchise obligations throughout their contract. If the public were getting this poor a service from their television provider, they would have switched months ago. Matheson's decision means Scotland's passengers can look forward to another 7 years of rail misery."

Factors to Put Into Consideration During the Search for the Right Audiovisual Contractor
For those running corporate organizations, commercial industries and education institutions, there is need to invest in audiovisual components such as projectors and public address systems to improve on efficiency. All these audiovisual components are quite vital to all these institutions and it is important to find a good audiovisual contractor to install them for you. The public address system, projectors and the white screen is just part of the many audiovisual components. These days, there are very many of these audiovisual contractors available to offer their services to the many clients too and you need to ensure that you pick the most suitable one for the job. As a client, there is need to take much caution and do as much research as possible as not all the audiovisual contractors available have got what it takes to deliver to precision. Take time as the client and look into certain aspects of consideration as you look to find a good audiovisual contractor. Here are the things to ponder about as you seek to find a good audiovisual contractor.
The first thing that you need to do is to ensure that the audiovisual contractor you choose is licensed to offer these services to clients. Only a handful of the audiovisual contractors available are actually able to deliver to precision and this is the main reason why majority of them are not licensed to offer these services to clients since they are not qualified. There has been an increase in the number of clients losing their money to these fake audiovisual contractor around who have got no licensing to offer these services to clients. For this reason, it is very important that you consider requesting the audiovisual contractor to send or present you with copies of their licensing documents for you to do the necessary verification. To add on to this, there is need to also pay the licensing authorities a visit for them to give you further verification.
Another thing of much importance is the insurance cover that the audiovisual contractor got. Dealing with electrical systems is quite risky and the technician could get onto an accidents or destruction of property could take place.
The third thing that you need to look into during this search is the quality of service that you as the client receives from the audiovisual contractor. Customer service is quite important and you need to ensure that you get value for your pay from the audiovisual contractor.
In conclusion, there is also the need to consider looking into the charges of contracting the audiovisual contractor to do the job for you.

Recent studies have found a high genetic similarity of the psychiatric diseases schizophrenia and bipolar disorder, whose disease-specific changes in brain cells show an overlap of more than 70 percent.
These changes affect gene expression, i.e., transcription of genes for the purpose of translation into functional proteins. A collaborative study carried out by the Institute of Pharmacology and Clinical Pharmacy at Goethe University (Professor Jochen Klein) and the Institute of Neurosciences at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem (Professor Hermona Soreq) now shows sex-specific biases in these changes, as well as in cellular control mechanisms based on endogenous short ribonucleic acid (RNA) chains.
The scientists identified an important role of microRNAs, a special group of these small RNA molecules, known for their extensive control of gene expression in all human cells. Targeting of a gene by one of these microRNAs can lead to a significant restriction of its expression.
"The main problem is the enormous variety of possible combinations," says Sebastian Lobentanzer, lead author of the article published in the journal Cell Reports. "The human expresses about 2,500 of these microRNAs, and a single one can influence hundreds, maybe even thousands of genes."
For this reason, the researchers investigated gene expression in patient brains as well as human cultured nerve cells with a combination of RNA sequencing and bioinformatics.
They found a difference in the expression of immune-related genes between men and women, especially with regard to cytokines, the messenger substances of immune cells. Upon exposition of the cultured male and female neuronal cells to some of these cytokines, the researchers found a transformation of nerve cells into to cholinergic neurons, defined by their use of the neurotransmitter "acetylcholine".
By sequencing the microRNAs at several time points during this process, the scientists were able to paint a detailed picture of the microRNA interface between the immune and neuronal systems. They identified the involvement of 17 partially sex-dependent families of microRNAs and generated an extensive network of 12,495 regulated genes.
Using a multi-stage selection process, the most influential of these microRNA families were identified and confirmed in dedicated experiments. This led to the identification of the two sex-specifically expressed families mir-10 and mir-199 as interface between cytokines and cholinergic functions.
Psychiatric diseases are an important field for new therapeutic approaches because of their high genetic complexity and their inaccessibility to conventional forms of therapy. On the one hand, the current study demonstrates molecular parallels to the long-observed but previously unexplained clinical differences between disease-affected men and women.
On the other hand, mechanisms on the basis of small RNA molecules could open up new avenues by influencing a large number of disease-relevant genes – a promising approach in the search for alternatives to traditional antipsychotic drugs. "Studies such as ours, which enable a comprehensive representation of microRNA interactions, are the first step on the path to developing new therapeutic substances," says Lobentanzer.

Dom Pedro Pinhal Golf course played: 2019-10-04
"Played this last year, and this year, after giving it a miss for many years due to poor state of course under Oceanico.
Marked improvement from previous years, as now under Dom Pedro.
Low handicappers may find it not that challenging,
but a good and fair test for mid to high handicappers.
10th hole is really nice, hitting blind over the hill, down to the green.
Food, drinks and service very good and reasonable." - Mike T
Dom Pedro Pinhal Golf course played: 2018-06-07
"This course seems to have improved significantly since we played it in 2017. Tees, greens and fairways all in great condition.
It is a real test of golf, with many of the par 4s and 5s unreachable in regulation. This did not inhibit our enjoyment of the course in any way.
The cart paths need some work, but it can be walked with an electric trolley." - Clive

In Connecticut, easy for problem CNAs to slip through system
WASHINGTON — Certified nurse aides, or CNAs, are on the front lines of health and elder care, spending the most time with patients. They are also among the least monitored and least regulated health care professionals, and are paid the least.
The state of Connecticut has 37,700 licensed CNAs, but does not require drug trusts and leaves background checks to the health care facilities and home health agencies that employ them. But those companies practice different levels of oversight on their employees, and there is virtually no oversight of CNAs who do "freelance" work with patients in their homes.
A 72-year-old woman in the town of Washington hired one of those freelancers recently as she was recovering from debilitating back surgery.
According to police, the woman's CNA, Candy Sutay, and Sutay's boyfriend, Bryan Gamelin, stole $71,000 of the woman's jewelry and silverware to finance their heroin addictions. Sutay, while providing care, went through eight bags of heroin a day, according to police.
While Connecticut mandates that agencies who provide at home help or companion care subject their employees to "comprehensive" background checks, if a home care worker — a nurse, a nurse's aid, or just an assistant — works without an agency, they aren't subjected to any testing, or checks.
Like Sutay, those folks fly under the radar.
Sutay and Gamelin, both 44, were arrested July 23, and subsequently charged with two felonies each: first-degree larceny and first-degree conspiracy to commit larceny, for what police said was a months-long theft of gold, silver, gems and silverware.
And while they await trial, their case raises the question: Who monitors home care aides — the folks that work most closely with our most vulnerable populations?
The answer: health care agencies — to varying degrees. And if a home care assistant is hired by a private person, like Sutay was by the woman in Washington ... no one.
The state does not keep track of where CNAs work, or how many work with an agency, which leaves a list of people that are certified by the state to perform nursing-home-like work, who are not background checked, or drug tested.
The state Department of Public Health doesn't have any drug testing requirements for licensure, regardless of profession, said Maura Downes, a DPH spokesperson.
The CNA registry is intended to be used by nursing homes, who often employ CNAs to provide residents with assistance in tasks such as bathing, dressing, eating, and teeth brushing.
A CNA is like a nurse, but with with less training and education, Downes said. To be a CNA in Connecticut, one must complete 100 hours of instruction in a state-approved nursing program. To stay current on the registry, a CNA must have worked eight hours of direct personal care over the two years before they are re-certified.
Agencies don't have to drug test. And while they have to do background checks, according to the Department of Consumer Protection, each agency does background checks differently, agency owners said.
Some agencies do federal checks, some statewide, some just local.
"It just depends on how much you want to spend on it," said Gary Ferrone, owner of home care provider Fairfield Family Care. Ferrone's background checks are some of the toughest in the business, he said. His company checks applicants' criminal, civil, sex offender, DMV, and credit histories, he said, adding that he only considers hiring one person out of every six that apply.
But not all agencies are as tough, he added.
"They're unhireable to me, but they may go to another agency with lower standards," Ferrone said. Other agency managers, hiring directors and owners agreed with Ferrone. While agencies function as the safeguard between caretakers and those who need care, the hiring process often comes down to a home care agency's "moral code", they said, adding that less background checking is cheaper than more.
And even if Connecticut's hundreds of health care agencies all pass on an applicant, a CNA can still work freelance — and can remain on the statewide registry — as long as their two-year certification is up-to-date.
In the Washington woman's case, Sutay's two-year certification had lapsed in 2015. It is unclear, in court records, if the woman knew.
The registry does have one safeguard, according to the Department of Public Health. If a CNA has stolen things, abused residents, or neglected residents, that finding accompanies their name on the list, which would make them unhirable by a certified nursing home.
They can still work freelance if they can find a person to hire them.
The people doing the hiring are usually vulnerable people — the elderly or disabled. And it can be hard for them to check an assistant's background, or even their standing on the list.
Although police said Sutay told them that she'd been using heroin for 20 years, she has no "findings" against her on the registry.
According to the state, CNAs are kept on the registry — even if they've had "findings" against them or their certification has lapsed — so nursing homes know who they are hiring, and know who to avoid.
Across the country, some municipalities mandate background checks or drug testing, said Genevieve Gipson, the director of the National Network of Career Nursing Assistants. But, while some local governments try to provide oversight of home care workers, Gipson said, state laws regulating CNAs more strictly are rare.
"We really need to be helping consumers recognize that there's a responsibility there," Gipson said. "The way, too often, they find out there is a problem is after there's a problem."
The state does not track how many CNAs are employed by an agency or nursing home, and are therefore background checked or drug tested (depending on the company they work for).
Connecticut is not an outlier, said Abby Marquand, the director of policy research at the Paraprofessional Healthcare Institute. In most states, any privately-hired health care assistant is only subject to background testing if their employer decides so.
"When it comes to vulnerable people, it's a difficult thing to navigate," Marquand said. "The onus is really on the individual hiring."
And the CNA registry — while it is a list of people the state says are trained to provide care — is not necessarily there for the public, she said. It's mostly there for nursing homes and agencies, she said, adding that those agencies in turn provide the oversight.
But for private hires, the transaction — and oversight — is more like the hiring of a babysitter than that of a regulated health care professional. So no matter how trained a hire may be, and even if they specialize in elder care, like CNAs do, no government agency tests them, or checks their background.
State Rep. Matt Ritter, D-Hartford, co-chairman of the legislative Public Health Committee, said the issue raises questions, but it would be hard to determine if there are clear answers.
While the people who need home care are vulnerable, Ritter said, he's not sure if it's the state's place to check on care providers, adding that it really depends on if the CNA registry is actually used by the public.
If the public uses the registry, it's "disconcerting," he said. But if the registry is only used by agencies, who then provide the oversight, there may be a different role for state to play, he said.
"I could go both ways on it," he said.
