• Management is a process to achieve organizational goals.
• Nursing management is the process of getting nursing staff to provide care to patients.
• The nurse manager plans, organizes, directs, and controls financial, material, and human resources in order to provide the most effective care possible to groups of patients and their families.
Planning is the determination of what needs to be done. Its essential elements are
• objectives,
• strategic planning,
• budget, and
• setting priorities.
• Objectives are the specific measurable statements that flow from the philosophy and mission of the institution that identify what needs to be achieved by the nursing unit.
• When the statement refers to the institution, it is called a goal.
Strategic Planning
• Strategic planning refers to the long-range planning by a health care organization; it provides the direction that the organization will go in over the next 3–5 years.
• It is based on the values, philosophy, and mission of the health care organization and the vision of its leaders.
• Budget is the allocation of resources on the basis of forecasted needs.
• It is a numerical expression of expected revenues and expenditures of the nursing service department.
• The objective for making a budget is to ensure the attainment of desired goals in the most cost-effective manner.
• There are two types of budgets: operating budget and capital budget. The operating budget includes manpower resources, supplies, minor equipment, overhead expenses, salaries, and benefits while the capital budget includes items of considerable expense, such as major pieces of
Setting Priorities
The nurse leader determines the importance of activities and establishes the order in which the activities will be carried out. Setting priorities involves decision making.
Organization involves determination of how the planning is to be accomplished, how the parts are to be arranged into a functioning whole, and how the activities are to be coordinated to achieve a goal. Hence it is a means to an end, not an end in itself. Its essential elements are
• organizational structure
• position/job descriptions
• team building
• staffing
Organizational Structure
The formal organizational structure is the official arrangement of positions (organizational chart) and should be based upon goals of the institution and philosophy and objectives of the department. The informal organizational structure is the unofficial personal relationship among workers, which influences their
working effectiveness.
Organizational principles
• Unity of Command—an employee should be responsible to only one supervisor.
• Requisite Authority—when responsibility is delegated to a subordinate, the subordinate must also be given authority over the resources needed to accomplish the task.
• Continuing Responsibility—when a superior delegates responsibility to a subordinate, it does not diminish the superior's responsibility for the function.
• Organizational Centrality—an individual has more information available when she/he interacts directly with more individuals in the organization and becomes more powerful.
Position/Job Description
• Position/job description is a formal written document that describes the principal duties and scope of responsibilities for a particular position.
• It facilitates wage and salary administration, manpower planning, and assists with recruitment, selection, placement, orientation, and evaluation of employees.
Team Building
• Team building focuses on both task and relationship aspects of a group's functioning and is intended to increase efficiency and productivity.
• Team building involves data gathering about the team and its functioning, diagnosing strengths and areas needing development, and addressing team problems.
• Successful teams reflect open and effective communications, members that are committed to the team, clearly identified roles and responsibilities of the members, and trust and collegiality.
Leading is the process of getting the organization's work done. Its essential elements are
• leadership,
• supervision,
• decision making,
• shared governance,
• change agent,
• managing conflict,
• power—authority, and
• time management.
• Leadership is the ability to influence other people. A nurse leader can inspire the nursing staff to work together to accomplish the nursing unit's goals.
• Formal leadership is when the nurse has legitimate authority as defined by the health care organization.
• Informal leadership is when a staff member exercises leadership without the management role.
• Present-day theories of leadership evolve from the principles of quantum mechanics and reflect a fusion of the earlier theories of leadership: trait, behavior, and contingency theories.
• Six perspectives of quantum leadership are charismatic, transactional, transformational, connective, shared, and servant leadership.
• Supervision refers to the guidance, oversight, and evaluation of a member of the nursing team to whom the nurse leader has delegated an activity. It is an opportunity for the nurse to encourage the development of team members.
• Effective supervision utilizes the skills of communication, human relations, and teaching.
• Supervision is a mutual effort on the part of the individual being supervised and the person supervising.
Decision Making
• The decision-making process involves a series of steps that the nurse manager goes through to make a logical, well-informed, rational choice.
• Decision making always involves evaluating several possible solutions and making a choice.
Shared Governance
• Shared governance is based on a philosophy that nursing practice is best determined by nurses.
• It involves a network of nurses making nursing practice decisions in a decentralized environment.
• The outcome is that nurses participate in an accountable forum to control their own practice.
• Such forums can be in the form of councils or advisory boards.
Change Agent
• Change is a continual unfolding process.
• This process begins with the present state, moves through a transition state, and comes to the desired state. Having once arrived at the desired state, the process starts again.
• Change agent is the individual who helps to achieve the results during the dynamic process.
• Planned change has four steps: designing the change, planning the implementation, implementing the change, and integrating the change. Choosing change strategies depends on the amount of resistance anticipated and the degree of power the change agent has over the situation.
• Resistance to change occurs for a variety of reasons and comes from three major sources: technical concerns— concern about the change being a good idea, psychosocial needs—Maslow's hierarchy of needs, and threats to a person's position and power.
Managing Conflict
• Conflict management begins with a decision of "if and when" to intervene.
• It deals with conflict of issues, not personalities.
• Participants are responsible for working toward solutions and an open and full discussion of the problem is required.
• Maintain equity in each party's presentation of their information.
• Establish an environment where positive as well as negative feelings can be expressed.
• Engage in active listening of all parties.
• Restate key themes and encourage both parties to provide feedback.
• Develop alternative solutions and a plan to carry them out. Follow up on the plan.
• Provide positive feedback.
• Never blame.
• Power is the ability to influence other people even when there is resistance on the part of the other person.
• There are four types of power: authority—the power granted to a nurse or a group of nurses by virtue of position; reward—the promise (by the nurse manager) of money, goods, services, recognition, or other benefits; expertise—the special knowledge an individual (nurse) is believed to have; coercion—-the threat (by the nurse manager) of physical, economic, or psychological pain or harm.
Time Management
• In time management, what is really being managed is not time but how time is being used.
• An important aspect of time management is establishing one's own goals and time frames.
• There are seven principles of time management: goal setting, time analysis, priority determination, daily planning, delegation, interruption control, and evaluation.
• Assignment sheets that reflect the patient care assignments for each staff member as well as staff member's individual worksheets are tools to assist one in organizing time.
Control is the process of establishing standards of performance, measuring performance, and evaluating performance and providing feedback.
Information Systems
• Information systems are complex automated systems that are integrated through networked computers to process data.
• The common information systems are management information system, hospital information system, and nursing information system.
• Automated systems offer efficient organization, management, and storage and retrieval of information.
Total Quality Management
• Total quality management is the framework for the nurse manager to manage both costs and quality of patient care.
• It is a management philosophy that emphasizes a commitment to excellence.
• Total quality management is the umbrella philosophy that supports the process of continuous quality improvement.
• Continuous quality improvement is the process that systematically determines ways to improve patient care.
• Joint Commission on the Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations (The Joint Commission) provides standards that help health care institutions focus on the quality improvement efforts.
• Components of quality management are developing a comprehensive plan, setting standards and benchmarks, carrying out performance appraisals, and focusing on intradisciplinary and interdisciplinary assessment and improvement.
Performance Appraisal
• Performance appraisal is the formal evaluation of an employee by a nurse manager.
• The employee's behavior is evaluated against a standard that identifies what the employee is expected to perform.
• The position description is the basis for the performance behaviors.
• The main reason for conducting a performance appraisal is to provide constructive feedback to the employee.
• Performance appraisals are frequently used in the decisions for salary increases and promotions. Appraisals need to be in writing, done once a year, and shared with the employee. Employees should have the opportunity to respond and have an avenue for appeal.The manager needs to have adequate opportunity to observe the employee and should keep anecdotal notes as well as the staff nurse's self-assessment.

I noticed some postings on Ohio Birds from Rick Asamoto about White-winged Scoters a Caesar Creek State Park on Saturday, February 9, and possible Ross's Geese at Cowan Lake State Park on February 3. Rick is a reliable reporter, but that was several days ago or while I was till in Minnesota. These are birds I still need and a short distance from home. I did not find the White-winged Scoters at Furnas Boat Ramp so I also tried the Beach, the North Boat Ramp, the Campground and Ward Road. I found a few dabbling ducks, Mallard, Black Duck and American Wigeon, as well as divers, Ruddy Duck and Lesser Scaup and some American Coot. Nothing new for the year. I checked nearby Spring Valley WA, but there was someone running coon hunting dogs, so I left.
I continued to Cowan Lake, where I found Horned Grebe, new for the year at the marina but far out along the far shore. At the east end of the lake beyond the beach and picnic area I found a single Cackling Goose with Canada Geese and some Northern Shovelers, but nothing new for the year. I checked Melvin Quarry north of Wilmington, but found only another Horned Grebe and a few Canada Geese.
The Sun was setting, but I still had enough time to check Spring Valley WA for Rusty Blackbirds. I arrived at the parking area at the trail leading to the boardwalk. First I checked the feeders at the blind, but found nothing new for the year. Then I walked down to the boardwalk. They had improved the path with drainage and stones on the path. Last fall the path was really muddy from all the springs in the area. I sat on a bench on the platform waiting to see if any blackbird flocks show up. Red-winged Blackbirds roost in the cattails in the marsh. Eventually one individual Red-winged Blackbird male posted up on top of a tree near the platform and one at the beginning of the boardwalk. Eventually, a flock of about twenty blackbirds landed in the trees at the beginning of the boardwalk. I walked back to get close enough to scan with binoculars. I heard Rusties making their squeaky gate calls and found about nine of males plus females. With Horned Grebe and Rusty blackbird, the total is 136.

David Peace, on the back cover, describes The Singer as "the Great Punk Novel". As a man who is passionate about music, and lived through, and loved, the punk era, this augured very well.
The book is firmly based within the UK punk, and post-punk eras, so plenty of real bands and songs feature in the story. Part of the fun of the book, for those steeped in the musical history of the era, is trying to work out who Cathi Unsworth modelled some of the fictional characters and bands on. For example there's a photographer who appears to be a combination of Kevin Cummings and Anton Corbijn, and one of the main bands draws heavily on 1980s indie favourites The Cocteau Twins, whilst another has elements of The Birthday Party, amongst others.
At first The Singer felt enjoyable if a little hackneyed, however as the story progressed, flipping between the early 2000s and the late 1970s/early 1980s, it became progressively more compelling, and by the end I was racing through the book's 450 pages keen to find out how it all ended.
A strength of the book is the range of diverse and distinctive characters, all of whom, to one degree or another are looking back at the past, many damaged by their personal histories, and bring their own interpretation of what happened and why.
Cathi Unsworth evokes the punk era very powerfully and also convincingly places the tale in a range of places which include Camden, Portobello Road, Little Venice, Stoke Newington, Pigalle, Montmartre, and Bairro Alto. I know all of these places and she does a great job of describing each location.
Ultimately The Singer is a genre piece, and part of the grand tradition of crime fiction, although that said the book's conclusion owes more to gothic horror. Cathi Unsworth's dark tale convincingly evokes the punk era (and early 2000s) via an exciting, original and unexpected story.
After I'd finished I reflected on some of the more implausible aspects of the story, and how some of the writing felt rushed, but to dwell on that is to downplay the book's many strengths. This was a great read, my first book by Cathi Unsworth, and not my last. I will be reading more very soon. 4/5

Speaking of market tops Bitcoin edition
This is a chart of the Bitcoin Investment Trust (GBTC). Each share of the trust represents 0.09289534 bitcoins. Lets do a quick calculation;
0.09289534 x current Bitcoin value of $2799= net asset value of each share $260
The current share price of GBTC is around $485 so you are paying a whopping $225 more for your .09289534 bitcoin just for the convenience of buying this via your brokerage account.
The above exercise is one reason bitcoin is overvalued. People are just buying because it is going up and for them that is reason enough.
The other more anecdotal reason is that I was getting a cup of coffee at work and overheard co-workers, who I would classify as unsophisticated investors, talking about buying bitcoin.
When the shoeclerks and schlubs are getting in to an investment vehicle it is time for me to get out. I am not sure of the long term viability of crypto currencies or whether they will supplant paper currencies. I do know a top when I see one. Buyer beware.
P.S. It's never different this time

Mining.com (NYSE:RIO) Rio Tinto and BHP Billiton (NYSE:BHP), it was reported that about 2,800 workers went to 24-hour warning strike Monday, massive Escondida copper mine located in Chile. Up to now, news of the strike has not supported the price of copper.
Quoted in your publication:
Escondida 1 Union, Sindicato was similar to last year's 24-hour work stoppage over wages and working conditions. The dispute was quickly resolved, but in the two-week strike, in the summer of 2011 output exceeding 40000 tons of copper loss, forcing the operator BHP declared force majeure.
Said news of the strike not long before BHP Billiton mine may be a substantial increase in output next year to 1.27 million tonnes.

At 1:00 pm the 2017 Convention for the Libertarian Party of Weber County commenced. At this time we are proud to state that we have selected our platform and set our agenda going forward into 2017. After three hours of discussions, debates, votes, and elections of officers, the Libertarian Party of Weber County is set to become a viable force for liberty going forward.
Elected today were Craig Bowden as Chair, David Raine as Vice Chair, Katherine Joshnston as Vice Chair, and Kevin Brian as Treasurer.
Further, under business conducted, bylaws and motions were brought forward to ensure growth and expansion in the fight for liberty. The Libertarian Party of Weber County voted to officially separate as an autonomous entity from the State Party to begin fundraising and placing their capabilities in their own hands going forward to ensure that progress is made in the County.
While the State party is still the governing party in Utah, Weber County has asserted that it will act going forward for events, outreach, and fundraising. As membership has grown, we have the capabilities to operate independently.
We look forward to the coming year and working to bring about more liberty in our lifetimes.

Suggested liturgy and prayers for use with local church Whole Church Initiative Leadership Team, following recruitment and before the first training.
Invite forward the team, including the pastor.
Gathered here today are those who have been called to serve on our Whole Church Initiative Leadership Team. [Mention names of anyone not able to be present.] We are reminded that just as we are all called to the baptism font, and to the fellowship of Holy Communion, we are also called to service. These persons have agreed to serve for a full year on this team, seeking God's guidance for the life of this congregation and empowering us to serve ever more effectively as the body of Christ.
We are thankful for your willingness to serve on our Whole Church Initiative Leadership Team!
Leader (To Team):
You will explore and stretch yourselves, and all of us, in challenging and life-giving ways. We celebrate that you are willing to share your gifts and time in this way. We value the equipping of our laity and pastor(s) in this partnership for ministry in this body of Christ.
We are humbled to serve in this role, and dedicate ourselves to following Christ's example for living and leading. We recommit ourselves to the life long journey of faithful discipleship.
So now we present each one of you to God, praying a special blessing that the Holy Spirit will guide and empower you for this specific role of leadership.
[Slowly says each first name of each person on the team, whether present or not.]

Yes! We affirm you in this blessing! Come, Holy Spirit, Come!
We give thanks, O God, for the abundant gifts you have shared with this Body of Christ.

This forecast result also shows CFORS/ RAMS meteorological prediction. RAMS meteorology is used to drive the full-chemistry STEM-2K3 model. The STEM-tracer model has the same dynamic framework as STEM-2K3, but employs simple decaying rates for most primary species, plus wet scavanging and dry depostions et al. We can roughly derive the AVERAGE aging time for certain species based on their decaying rates if rain and cloud are not heavy, or have few impacts on those species. The presented ages can be used ONLY as a reference, due to realistic complexity. Please note that the tracer concentrations DO NOT represent the realistic concentration, but only the conributions from various sources.The model layer is defined in a terrain-following coordinate with the domain top about 23km, and it can be approximately treated as the altitude above surface level where the topograph does not exceed 1km above sea level.
In this page, we include 4-layer horizontal plots of STEM-2K3, STEM-tracer and CFORS Forecasts. You can also view time-series or cross-section plots over any model grid.

NEW YORK: CIA Director John Brennan said the United States does not want to see a chaotic collapse of the Syrian regime as it could open the way to Islamist extremists taking power.
The US spy chief said Washington had reason to worry about who might replace President Bashar al-Assad if his government fell, given the rise of the Islamic State group and other jihadists in Syria.
"I think that's a legitimate concern," Brennan said when asked if the US government feared who might succeed Assad.
Speaking at an event at the Council on Foreign Relations, he said that "extremist elements" including the IS group and Al-Qaeda veterans are "ascendant right now" in some parts of Syria.
"The last thing we want to do is allow them to march into Damascus."
Brennan added: "That's why it's important to bolster those forces within the Syrian opposition that are not extremists."
The US military is funding the training and arming of "moderate" Syrian rebel forces but the effort is only now getting off the ground.
Washington's stance is that Assad should have no role in Syria's future but President Barack Obama's administration and other governments wanted to see a political solution that would ensure a representative government, he said.
"None of us, Russia, the United States, coalition, and regional states, wants to see a collapse of the government and political institutions in Damascus," Brennan said.
The international community favored an eventual settlement that would bring a "representative government that is going to try to address the grievances that exist throughout the country."
Brennan, who worked for years at the spy agency before he became a top counter-terrorism adviser to Obama, took over as the head of the Central Intelligence Agency in March 2013

Do they function? On a extremely uncommon event you may get another advertiser to see your advertisement and say, "Wow, that looks better than what I just joined. Perhaps that will make me some cash. I think I'll go with this". Think about it. Is that person going to do you a lot good because they don't know what they're performing or how to market? Sounds like a successful recipe for failure.

Don't forget to post posts frequently to ezines and article directories as this is another fantastic way to get lead generation especially targeted leads. This technique is truly good for producing hyperlinks back again to your site or blog which over time will improve on search motor ranking and in the end gives you free lookup motor traffic.

Get the word out! Print some company playing cards, hand out flyers, email everyone you know, have your spouse bring in some brochures to his or her workplace. Place free ads online at Craigslist. Ask individuals for referrals.

And also, if the company is educated in Search engine optimization, the costs of the development may be higher. This is simply because Seo is the mattress rock of on-line advertising. Seo is the procedure of increasing focused lookup engine traffic to your web site by way of natural lookup engine make extra Money. To attain success with Search engine optimization, your web site should be Seo-pleasant. To make your site Seo-pleasant, it starts from the time you design your website. If you design a web site which is not Search engine optimization-pleasant now and a couple of months later you determine to apply Seo, it will trigger you a lot more cash simply because you will require to revamp your site once more.

You need to make sure you research your immediate personal loans guaranteed company extremely thoroughly if it is an online company. This will give you the peace of mind to know you are not obtaining ripped off.

So can free marketing grow your business? A quantity of these websites promote that "Free internet advertising allows you put free ads on our leading high quality internet website. This benefit creates miracles for your business. Providing you 1000's of new prospects." and on and on.

And finally, a almost autopilot technique of driving visitors can be classified ads. You can do either paid or free ads, but paid out will usually be more efficient. You can find classified ads websites that will allow you to post ads for as little as $6.00 for each month. You may find even less expensive if you appear difficult sufficient.

Online ads can arrive in as banner advertisements. Banner advertisements market your product or marketing with each other with relevant content material. The banner advertisements link back to the site where you can purchase or avail of services. On-line Classifieds like eBay, Amazon and Craigslist's are gaining in recognition but it can be expensive with the commissions that they charge.

When you are obtaining a company to design your website, price ought to not be the only concern that you think about. Rather, you should look at other elements that will determine how well your website is heading to be. Is the company educated in online advertising and Search engine optimization? Do you like their portfolio? Can they develop a website which is marketable that will bring you enquiry and sales? By looking at these factors, you can someday justify the cost that they are charging you.

Fine Tune Your Strategy. Compare your list of possible rental properties and your make extra Money checklist of accessible flights. Now slim the property checklist down to 4 to 6 attractive properties that require more research.

Once you post an advertisement, you don't want to forget about it. You ought to be renewing your ad each few of days or so. This is simply because there are some paid out ads in there that will display up at the top. If you have found an on-line categorized ad site like this, you will want to quit marketing there, and find 1 that doesn't have this option. In an ad site that only has free ads, the advertisements are buried deep in the checklist and get pushed up as much more and more ads come in on the exact same subject, so maintain renewing your advertisement to get it up there.

You require to discover great websites to post your free advertisement,you ought to not waste your time by submitting it on multiple websites which is not worth, Many of web sites will not function following a thirty day period or two so lookup for a great or top ten or 20 websites only. For better response select websites which offers services in your metropolis or country.You may appear into same niche websites issues you want to sell,Look for cellular niche websites only if you looking to promote mobile.

7) In online Classifieds, it is best to pay money and to maintain the payment easy. Do not use individual checks, money wires, and Western Union or Money grams. Do not give out any personally identifiable information such as social safety number, financial institution numbers, credit card numbers, and so on.

This non-binding, intentionally weak, internationally designed agreement intends to reduce global temperature (according to the UN owns predictive model) by .03 of one degree by the end of the century. To say the least it's not very ambitious.
News sources imply we are now no better than degenerate countries Syria and Nicaragua who also refuse to join. But the fact is, Nicaragua refuses to join agreement because it didn't go far enough – enforcing the opposing idea that the agreement is nothing more than international posturing.
Money Grab
Participants agree to pledged 100 billion dollars to 'assist' third world/developing countries in learning about carbon emissions, not how to adjust their factories to actually reduce emissions. This is equivalent to sensitivity training, which has very little effect.
China and India
China and India – number 1 and 4 on the list of pollution producers – would not be required to even begin it's use of coal reduction for 5 years.
The U.S. Is Already Making Strides
The US is currently the fastest growing investment dollars in green energy source ventures. Furthermore the US has (without any agreement) reduced carbon emissions by 1% per year since 2006. Any industry in any country can take a while to shift policy, but these numbers are impressive and proof of US commitment to a burgeoning green industry.
This agreement entwines the US further into what is worded as 'global carbon market.' Take note of the word global. Yes, this is yet another assertive push towards the no-borders globalist mindset – that many US citizens disagree with.
Kumi Nadoo Commits Sedition
Calling for Americans to engage in 'civil disobedience' directly against the president – Kumi Naidoo referred to Trump's speech as a 'suicide note' filled with lies. A textbook case of sedition and justice should be sought.
If Americans do not force @realDonaldTrump to reverse his decision then we have just heard one of the longest suicide notes filled with lies

We will study the intersection between science and philosophy in defining and understanding free will, with the aim of learning the latest science on the nature and existence of free will and how to critically approach philosophical uses of it. Students will not only learn about the relevant elements of brain science, but also how to identify common philosophical fallacies in reasoning about free will, and the real-world application of the analysis of free will in diverse fields, from law to medical ethics. Course topics: The varieties of free will and the differences among them; identifying causes and the role of personal identity in making decisions (and what the latest brain science has to say about both); the nature and purpose of assigning responsibility to personal agents (in law, ethics, and daily life); the difference between determinism and fatalism, and the importance of addressing both personal and genetic-environmental causes of decisions when thinking about social, political, legal, and moral systems.

Recently I have started getting very, very small amounts of traffic through search engines. Which I suppose is pretty exciting because it brings more people to entertain! (I get more readers *I love you all, those who comment i love more*!)
Anyway, if that was the focus of this post it would suck but… I am going to share keywords that people have actually searched (and found me with) and even wackier ones that you could potentially find me with.
Ok, so according to Google analytics I have had 14 hits via Google. Admittedly, four out of the eleven hits where actually me searching myself with a keyword that no one else will ever use… (Unless I become an online phenomenon. *Cross your fingers everybody!*)
That keyword was Colinbloginit and if you google it, you getting 39 results entirely about me! (I'm a online phenomenon :O *Not quite)
Other keywords that have actually been used to find me include-
"voi jeans" "post a comment"
Inhumane mouse trap
Nothing to lose movie cars
Nothing to lose movie security guard
Nothing to lose security guard scene
Song from security guard scene nothing to lose
I should have warned you they were random… But what you could find me with is even worse!
For example-
If you ever search "82800 seconds in minutes" you will find me, who the heck searches that!
"star constellations" according to webmaster tools I come 17th if you search that, if I did I would be impressed but I cannot find myself!
If you type in "Diary of a semi-retired paperboy" I am very near the top but c'mon, I don't suppose there are many "semi-retired paperboys" out there, let alone ones that write a blog about it.
Only today someone found me by searching, "how long before you take a break on a computer", this person obviously spends 25 hours a day on the computer and was wondering if he had broken some kind of world record.
(He certainly has!)
A potential search which I am actually surprised about is the words "Nothing to lose movie", where I am ranked on the second page of a google! Now this is a famous movie, starring Tim Robbins and Mark Lawrence, although I'm surprised to say I haven't got any hits from that exact phrase.
My favourite potential search is "The sugar puff incident" It is the kind of thing that nobody would ever… ever search! Although if you ever forget my URL it will come in handy, just Google "The sugar puff incident" and you will find me in second and third place. An extremely minor achievement indeed! *Any excuse for a party though ;)*
Any interesting keywords from your blog?
Monday, September 7, 2009
Search me on google with a bunch of completely random keywords.

If you type the name of my blog into Google, my blog is the first result. But one of those results goes to an online dating blog feed website (only because I listed Yahoo! Personals as a Yahoo! service in my Google-Yahoo Merger story lol.) Glad to see you're getting some hits too!
Hope you can see and comment on these posts:

Hmmm, the only weird one I can see is 'Banksy up coaster' - not really that funny but it is nice to see that people do come to your sites via google for whatever reason!
How many do you class as very small number of traffic?

Go with the Flow
On a recent cruise, my husband and I took advantage of the opportunity to go snorkeling in the Caribbean. I caught this image of fish swimming primarily in the same direction. There is one fish, tho, who seems determined to go his own way, and is swimming against the flow, so to speak. I am reminded of how there are times when it's good to strike out on one's own, and not follow the crowd. However, I'm also reminded of some advice I heard that suggests sometimes when we are trying to do what seems to be difficult, we just need to sort of go with the flow of things and subtly make our way to our chosen course. The example given is when one wants to cross a river with a strong current. Rather than just striking out to cross the river directly, it's good to let the current carry you, and gently keep moving toward the other shoreline. You will get across, and save much effort and energy. So, the reminder for me is to just go with the flow when the Universe seems to want me to go in a different direction than what I had in mind.

Determination of DNA and RNA Melting Point on UV-VIS Photometer SPECORD® PLUS - Alexandra Kästner

This article has been unlocked and is ready to read.
Nucleic acids are biological molecules essential for life. Together with proteins nucleic acids make up the most important macro molecules where each is found in abundance in all living things. They allow organisms to transfer genetic information from one generation to the next. There are two types of nucleic acids: deoxyribonucleic acid, better known as DNA and ribonucleic acid, better known as RNA. Their names are derived from type of sugar, ribose, contained within the molecules. In living organisms, DNA does exist as a double helix structure. The stability is achieved by stacking and the hydrogen bonds between the bases attached to the two strands. The four bases found in DNA are adenine (abbreviated A), cytosine (C), guanine (G) and thymine (T). They form complementary pairs: The nucleotides hydrogen bond to another nucleotide base in a strand of DNA opposite to the original. This bonding is specific, and adenine always bonds to thymine (and vice versa) and guanine always bonds to cytosine (and vice versa).
Variations in pH or heating can affect to a structure modification of DNA, where the double-stranded deoxyribonucleic acid unwinds and separates into single-stranded strands through the breaking of hydrogen bonding between the bases. This denaturation process is called as DNA melting and leads to increasing of absorbance (hyperchromic effect).
From there one of the most commonly used and simplest techniques for the DNA melting point determination is spectroscopic determination by UV absorption. The absorption spectrum is recorded against the dependence of the temperature where the turning point of the graph describes the exact melting point. The temperature where at the half of the DNA exists as single strands, is called melting point (Tm).
All nucleic acids absorb strongly in the UV region due to the heterocyclic ring structure associated with each of the four bases. Typically absorption maximum is observed at a wavelength of around 260nm, although this is pH dependent. The versatility of DNA comes from this fact that the molecule is actually doublestranded. The bonding between cytosine with guanine is generally stronger than adenosine/thymine base-pairing. [1]
The amount of cytosine and guanine (called the 'GC content') can be estimated by measuring the temperature at which the DNA melts. Higher temperatures are associated with a high GC content. So by melting point determination it is possible to classify bacteria because the GC content in the DNA is an important fact of any organism. [2]
DNA denaturation can also be used to detect sequence differences between two nucleic acids of different origin. DNA is heated and denatured into single-stranded state, and the mixture is cooled to allow strands to rehybridise. Hybrid molecules are formed between similar sequences and any differences between those sequences will result in a disruption of the base-pairing [3].
In field of disease research rare gene mutations can be detected because mutated DNA sequences melt at lower temperatures than 'normal' ranges. Furthermore the process of DNA melting plays an important role in molecular biology techniques, notably in the polymerase chain reaction (PCR).

The Fishing Beat by Bill Hilts Jr. (Oct. 12)
Fish can feel angling pressure. Several local anglers experienced exactly that – what can happen when too much pressure is applied on local fish stocks … and what can happen when that pressure is relieved.
Lake Erie and tributaries
The Canadian Tire Lake Erie Open was held last weekend and Joe Fonzi of Gasport and Larry Mazur of Lancaster had a good feeling. They were on some decent fish. In fact, Fonzi guided some clients to three 6-pound smallmouth a few days before the Oct. 8 tournament was run out of Chippewa, Ont. This was a two-person, best-five fish contest and the Fonzi-Mazur duo worked 40 feet of water just off Buffalo along a specific rock ledge. In the first hour and a half, they boated 25 fish using drop shot rigs outfitted with Jackall Crosstails; and swim baits. They definitely attracted the attention of some of the competitors. It wasn't long before they were surrounded by boats. The rest of the day they only caught 15 more fish and they never hauled in
that 6-pound kicker fish that they needed. They finished a respectable fifth in the 75-boat field with a five-fish weight of 22.80 pounds. Winners were Rob McIntosh and Scott Huffman of St. Catharines with 25.07 pounds. Bass are starting to go on their fall feed. According to Capt. Chris Cinelli of Grand Island, he's been doing extremely well from the round house to Donnelly's Wall using large golden shiners. Water depth is 12 to 20 feet, bouncing bottom humps with the lightest weight possible. It could be as light as a quarter to three-eighths ounce. Everything is 8-pound test line as the water can be super clear. Off Sturgeon Point and Cattaraugus Creek, Capt. Jim Hanley sends word that the bigger goldens are working for him, too. Best bass action has been in 15- to 40-foot depths, but the most consistent has been at the 25-foot mark. Tubes and drop shots with gulp minnows have also been working. That big walleye school is still hanging off Point Breeze, but getting them to bite has not been easy. Trying force-feeding them with stickbaits, worm harnesses or blade baits. No solid perch reports yet. Fonzi did some checking on Tuesday this week and managed to catch a handful. However, he did encounter one angler who had a limit of yellow perch that he caught in 68-70 feet of water. Salted minnows did the trick. In closer to shore, some anglers are casting the mouth of Cattaraugus Creek with Cleos and stickbaits and picking up some nice steelhead. We also had reports of a few more trout showing up in the lower stretches of the Catt, but a good rain is needed to really trigger the run. Don't be surprised if you catch a pink salmon. All the other tribs are low and clear.

Scattershot: News & notes from the great outdoors
Niagara River
The salmon are starting to get a bit more finicky in the Devil's Hole area and boat pressure over the weekend forced salmon to go into a lock-jaw mode. However, after some of the local captains started to complain that just maybe the run was starting to dwindle, lessened pressure on Tuesday brought a good bite to those that stuck it out. Capt. John DeLorenzo of Niagara Falls was
guiding Stephen Owens of Niagara Falls, Bob Nudo of Phoeniz and Joe Beck of Apache Junction, Ariz., for a nine-fish limit using treated egg skein. They weren't the only ones catching fish, either. Every captain was catching salmon and a fair number had limits for the day thanks to the lessened pressure on the fish. Good numbers of casters were working the shoreline of the gorge over the weekend with a fair amount of success using spoons, spinners, jigs and egg skein under floats. In the upper river, some early reports of walleye are being taken off the Bird Island Pier by night casters using Husky Jerks. A few musky have started to show up and Nate Hlad of Newfane hauled in a 37-inch fish on a spinnerbait around Strawberry Island. It was caught and quickly released unharmed.
Lake Ontario and tributaries
Fishing is slowly starting to pick up off the piers and in the harbor according to Jamie Stanley at All in the Same Boat Tackle in Newfane. Josh Wittcop of Lyndonville is leading the King of the Creek contest with a 27.93-pound king caught off the piers in Olcott. The largest fish caught off a boat so far is a 24.03-pound king reeled in by John Drotter of Burt. According to Stanley, top baits have been egg skein, egg sacs, Rapala J-13 stickbaits; Little Cleo, Moonshine and K-O Wobbler spoons; and No. 6 Vibrax Blue Fox spinners with glow tails. With the cool nights starting to bring temperatures down, the only thing missing is a good rain or two. Not too much action is going on out in the lake right now.
Chautauqua Lake
The walleye bite is still going on in the south basin from Ashville Bay to the bridge, trolling sticks that are imitating the perch in the lake according to Craig Robbins. Some jiggers are working the deeper holes to the north to also take some nice 'eyes – fish up to about 7-8 pounds which are nice fish for that lake. Use a blade bait or a black hair jig tipped with a crawler. Ashville Bay is also a good spot for perch and crappie right now.
Case, Quaker, Red House Lakes
Brood stock trout plants for the fall started up last week from the Randolph Fish Hatchery, breeder trout that are all over 2 years old. Red House Lake received 250 brown trout (15- to 26-inch fish); Quaker Lake was the recipient of 200 15-inch rainbows and 150 browns 21 to 26 inches in length; and Case Lake accepted 300 of the 15- to 26-inch browns and 25 rainbow trout up to 28 inches long. If you are thinking that the inland trout season closes on Oct. 15, these particular waters are open all year long.

life feels so good, being back in his freckly arms. it seems like we havent been with eachother in so long. he went to kauai. when he came home i had somewhat of a rockett emergency that i had to attend to in redlands for a week. after that, we were focusing on warped tour and sort of switching cities. id be in la and he would he in redlands. i also went to mexico for neil's graduation celebration sans rob. anyway, were back together, naked sweaty bodies between these hot summer sheets. feels like heaven i swear. today was the most amazing day. nothing incredibly special happened. we just existed together, happily, without argument or tension. 8 o'clock walks are now my favorite occasions (even though tonights was completed half way barefoot... i have so many blisters on my feet from disneyland yesterday).
well god-dammit if im not extremely happy with my situation at the moment. we have a kick ass place, amazing dogs, amazing friends and enjoying the summer in a new city is a new experience im embracing whole heartedly. although i really dont think i was built for heat and sunshine. sunburns are pretty much my worst enemy. warped tour was basically hell on earth... shitty bands combined with 115 ̊ heat. i looked at rob and we simultaneously said "must go to beach" which ended up being josh's moms pool... god bless that chlorine. went to m cafe today as a suggestion of our lawyers. it was pretty much the bamb. also, he told us about this natural/vegan/holistic cruise through the caribbean that sounds like the most awesome cruise you could ever pay for. anyway im straying away from my topic. i went to valley of the dolls, this awesome doll store on beverly for my sisters b-day present. it made me realize i need to play with my dolls more. it really satisfied that crafty craving i get nearly every day. speaking of which, bought a new camera... a ricoh... ill post more about that later. dont wanna swamp this entry. gahh, i dont even wanna type anything else.

The holiday we know today as Halloween, a night of trick-or-treating by children and young people dressed in fantasy costumes, in reality dates back to one of the most ancient folk celebrations, a pagan festival of more than 2000 years ago commemorating the dead. The feast has survived over the centuries in popular traditions summoning influences of different cultures: from the Celtic festival of Samhain to Roman's Pomona Day, and to Christian holidays of All Saints and All Souls.
In Catholic and Anglican traditions the Days of the Dead are celebrated in the autumn period from October 31 to November 3, to remember and pray for those who have left this world. Looking back in time, we can recognize certain features and rituals of today celebrations in some pagan feasts. The most strong association with the world of the dead has the ancient festival of Samhain, some other fonts are connecting the tradition with the Roman pagan feast of Pomona.
Nowadays in the European countries the period of commemorating the dead lasts three days, beginning on October 31 with All Saints' Eve, which was developed with time in American Halloween, the famous day of the witches, ghosts, dark powers, jack-o'-lanterns and trick-o-treating. The name "Halloween" derives from the word combination "All Hallows' Eve" (All Saint's Eve from Old English). By some sources, this evening is also dedicated to remembrance of the souls of damned.
November 1 is honouring All Saints, canonized and not, known and unknown.
Finally, November 2 closes the range of Hallowtide holidays, with commemoration of the souls being currently in Purgatory, who have not been purified yet and have not reached heaven. This day is known as All Souls' Day.
The Orthodox church has similar traditions of commemorating all dead and all Saints, spread over the year. All Saints' feast is celebrated on the first Sunday after Pentecost (or the 8th Sunday after Orthodox Easter), in honour of God and all Saints, known and unknown.
The Saturday before October 26 (the feast of Saint Demetrius of Thessaloniki) is called Demetrius Saturday, and is closely associated today with the ancient pagan tradition of "Dedy" – the remembrance of the dead relatives, which was transformed by the church into the Soul Saturday. It is one of the several dates in the year, devoted to commemoration and praying for the dead. The name of the ancient Dedy literally is translated as "Grandfathers", meaning all departed ancestors.
