Each year, England's NHS spends billions of pounds to maintain its estates. This research investigates how Building Information Modelling (BIM) can provide benefit by demonstrating the links between built asset maintenance spend and added value to the organisational performance. The research uses a comprehensive literature review and a case study of an NHS hospital to achieve the research aim.
A conceptual framework for BIM enabled healthcare Built Asset Management (BAM) was developed and informed by: a literature review; initial data from the case study organisation relating to asset management and asset related data collection practices of NHS hospitals; and the capabilities of Building Information Modelling.
This framework demonstrates how a wide range of interdepartmental data can be digitally integrated to link maintenance strategies and organisational performance. The illustrational BIM model is further improved through the findings from focus groups.

Fidelity Bonding Program
Is the lack of bonding coverage keeping you from working or from hiring someone?
The Fidelity Bonding Program is administered by the Alaska Department of Labor and Workforce Development, Employment Security Division. It is designed to alleviate employer concerns about hiring at-risk job applicants.
Who is considered "at-risk"?
- Ex-offenders, including anyone with a record of arrest, conviction or imprisonment, and anyone who has ever been on probation or parole
- Ex-addicts (persons with a history of alcohol or drug abuse)
- Persons having a poor credit record or who have declared bankruptcy
- Economically disadvantaged persons who lack a work history
- Individuals who were dishonorably discharged from the military
- Others who experience a barrier to gaining employment due to their personal background.
How Bonds can help
- Employers receive insurance free-of-charge as an incentive to hire hard-to-place job applicants.
- The insurance reimburses the employer for any loss due to employee theft of money or property.
- There is no deductible amount (i.e., 100% bond insurance coverage).
- No forms or other paperwork for the employer to sign
- No processing to delay matters. The insurance can be put into effect almost instantly.
- Employment Security Division staff complete the one page form
- Insurance applies to full/part-time employees paid wages with federal taxes automatically deducted from their wages
- Insurance covers employee dishonesty that occurs on or away from the employer's work facility.
* Self-employed persons cannot be covered by these Fidelity Bonds.

Each of the rooms in our house has a function. Although we invest a certain quantity of time in each space, the rooms we invest the most time in are the living-room or family room. The family or living room is commonly called the excellent space and we want it to look terrific. It's where we spend time settling back as a family viewing TV, reading, playing video games or entertaining visitors. When guests enter the fantastic space, we want our designs and feelings to be reflected in our furnishings. Simply put, we want a space we can proudly display to our visitors. We desire this space to be a space where everyone feels comfy and welcome.
The furnishings we pick for the great space will reflect a lot about us. Attempt to make your furniture inform a story about the type of home you have. Modern furniture such as sofas and modern sofa tables can make a room look gorgeous all by themselves. Since they have first come out hundreds of years back, they've been there for our comfort. They utilized to be utilized when the relative sat next to the hearth and read. They were utilized for warmth alongside the fireplace as well as a location to locate a reading lamp. Today, modern-day options are still used for comfort, but they're also made use of in the décor of our home.
The sofa is the most important piece of Meuble design in our living room. Yet, a modern living room or excellent space without modern sofa tables would still look very bare with just a sofa, despite how lovely the sofa looked. These furnishing include something very special and distinct to the total appearance of the fantastic space or living room. Fortunately, for the home designer, they can be found in many various varieties and styles. They are also referred by many different names.
Coffee tables are a very common style of sofa tables. These modern sofa tables should be chosen carefully. Don't assume because it's a name brand that it's going to be perfect for your great space. Pick the size as carefully as you select the design and color. The color should blend well with your furniture, so choose neutral colors unless they're wood, which chooses nearly anything. If the coffee table is made use of for coffee or appearance, the height won't really matter. However, if you'll be using it to rest your feet, consider that height and make sure it's tall enough.
Console tables are another version of the modern sofa tables you see in many homes. These are perfect for the home that isn't perfectly square. If you have any nooks or crannies that you don't know exactly what to do with, a console table will perfectly fill up that area. Put a live plant or statuary on the top and you have the perfect addition to your great room.

Tech bite: Force India's diffuser and vane tweaks The aero department at Force India is littered with ex-Red Bull staff and their influence on the car has been plain to see for several years now, especially in the VJM10 as it has adopted the high rake philosophy that Adrian Newey has deployed in recent years. Rake refers to the front-down, rear-up attitude of the car, which has many advantages when exploited properly. It isnât an easy path to follow as it requires consistent sealing of the floor to prevent low pressure air flowing beneath the car from leaking and causing a drop in downforce levels. The rear diffuser is a critical region when exploiting a high rake angle and Force India unveiled revisions to theirs in Russia. The upper Gurney tabs that help extract the air from beneath the car have been pinched at the centre and outer parts (see image below), creating more volume for the air to fill as it escapes. Tucked behind the nose box below the chassis front bulkhead, teams exploit a series of turning vanes ahead of the bargeboards to manipulate and condition the air passing around the centre of the car aft of the front-wing. Some teams arrange as many as three pairs of large baffles to steer the air, while others present a series of much smaller vanes to micro-manage the flow by generating vortices. Force India have one pair of sizeable vanes that are divided into two â the first duo mounted to the front-wing and the other hanging from the underside of the car immediately behind. The leading pair previously featured a large slot but this was removed in Bahrain in favour of a plain surface, although both sets of vanes feature a footplate which are divided into numerous mini aerofoils to generate vortices and support the flow passing above.
Apart from the drugs mentioned above, certain herbal sedatives for dogs may give rise to certain health problems.

Code of Princess tries very hard to recapture the spirit and charm of its spiritual predecessor, Guardian Heroes, but ultimately fails to provide the same fast-paced, tight experience that it tries to emulate. There are rumblings of a greater game underneath the sluggish, frustrating combat that Code of Princess provides, but these never quite resonate, and remain buried under poor design choices.
+ Fun, quirky characters
+ Robust combat system with a lot of room for personalized combos
- Action feels sluggish and unrewarding
- Grinding is necessary to come close to scratching the game's harder encounters
- Visuals are stunning up close, but drop in quality drastically when more than three enemies appear on-screen
A legacy is a double-edged sword. For a game with a great legacy, there's a good chance that gamers will be into your concept based solely on a name drop. Conversely, if your game isn't a worthy successor to a beloved classic, chances are it'll get more flak than a bomber flying over France circa WWII.

Childless by Choice: Why I'm More Like Oprah Winfrey, Than I Realized
By Marian L. Thomas
By Marian L. Thomas
Yes, we both have beautiful black skin, strong hearts, and are great at multi-tasking. It seems we both enjoy natural hair, the bigger the better. Yet, there is something deeper that connects the Oprah Winfrey's outlook on life to my own: our childless by choice decision.
It's a tough decision for many to accept. Hard for many to fathom that a black woman who has much to give would consider not giving. I am an educated black female. I graduated Magna Cum Laude with a Bachelor's degree in Business Communications. I have written five fictional books that have received some level of recognition including one that was a recommended "must-read romance" by Michele Monkou, USA Today book reviewer. Of course, not on the Oprah Winfrey level, but nonetheless, each book was a dream that I had to work hard to accomplish. Reaching dreams and accomplishing goals is highly important in Oprah Winfrey's eyes. As an author, she has written articles, conducted national conferences, and spoke very highly and boldly on the subject of attaining goals. She also has spoken about her decision to remain childless by choice; a term I refer to as being an 'empty carriage woman'.
Empty Carriage Woman: a strong, loving, kind, unselfish woman who has decided to forgo pushing the baby carriage.
While the term 'empty carriage woman' may not be familiar to many reading this, it is in fact not a new concept. A report posted by the Pew Research Center back in 2010 showed that 24% of women between the ages of 40-44 who held a higher-education degree, had not had children. The study also reported that the while white women are more likely to not to have children, the childless rate among black women had risen rapidly over the past decade.
Can an empty carriage woman really be deemed unselfish? Absolutely! Oprah is a classic example of this. Years back, she opened a beautiful school for young females. She gave unselfishly of her time, energy, and love to each of them. No, I haven't opened a school, but I do give my time, energy, and love to volunteer work that I know benefits others, young girls and the like.
So, while I don't have millions. Oprah and I do have more things in common, than even I realized. We both have made the decision to put on our empty carriage t-shirt, so to speak, and wear it out in a society where being childless by choice is still unthinkable.
Isn't that how dreams are accomplished? Doing the unthinkable?

Living the Empty Carriage Way of Life: Childless By Choice
by Marian L. Thomas
Author Marian L. Thomas delivers a hilarious, yet candid discussion of why she made the life-long decision to remain childless. This chapbook has the perfect blend of non-fiction and fictional elements that make it the perfect recipe for a delightful read.
According to a recent article in the Huffington Post, "Millennial-focused media is just beginning to recognize this emerging mindset and celebrities are popularizing and glamorizing this path, too, with powerful women like Chelsea Handler, Zooey Deschanel and Cameron Diaz leading the charge."
Thomas said it's a myth that she just doesn't like children. "It's like saying, I don't like ice cream. I don't want to make it, but I certainly enjoy it on occasion. Similarly, I don't want children, but I certainly do love children...I don't want to babysit them either (just in case any of my friends are reading this book). I'm okay with being childless!"
Another article from the Huffington Post reported the happiest couples are those without children-- at least, that's according to research out of the United Kingdom's Open University. The study titled "Enduring Love?" found that childless married and unmarried couples reported being more satisfied in life and feeling more valued by their partners than did pairs with kids. Unmarried parents were found to be slightly happier than married parents."
Thomas was also quoted as stating: "Being childless, is not a revolution. Being childless can be a good decision for you. Your decision to remain childless doesn't need validation from others."

The problem is, however, that most women make less money and have less power than most men, and the message that goes out to women without power is that to get some, you need to gain control of a male view of women -- which means to get power through male power, rather than on your own.
This is where the theory of the male gaze becomes important. John Berger once noted, "Men 'act' and women 'appear.' Men look at women. Women watch themselves being looked at." (Ways of Seeing , p. 47)

I met Joanna several weeks ago and the similarities between us and our lives are crazy! Let me list just a few......
* We both moved back to the US last May after living abroad for many years
* We both grew up within three miles of each other out in the country on farms
* We both moved back (basically next door) to where we grew up
* We both have 'foreign' husbands. Hers is South African and mine is Canadian
* We both have little boys around the same age
* We both love auctions, flea markets, and second hand stores.
* We both collect religious (Christian) objects
* We're both starting new businesses
..........and the list goes on, and on, and on. It's nice to have a kindred spirit close by.
Since she's starting a new business (and I know how that is!) I want to sing her praises for just a second. If you are planning any kind of event and you want something unique and fun to make it special, check her out. Using vintage dishes, linens, props and hand-made items she will tailor-make a style for any event you may be planning, whether it's a wedding, baby shower, birthday party or whatever. She has such great eclectic taste.
Her home is a visual feast! My eyes dart around her rooms every time I'm there and I see something new every single time. Don't even get me started on her basement. It's like the Holy Grail of flea market finds. I just want to pack it all up and bring it home with me! So share this blog about her, go to her facebook page and like her or check out her new website (still under construction but you can bookmark it for future use!) and tell your friends!
Oh, and I almost forgot the most important part! The business is called The Odd Bin. Cool name isn't it?
Enjoy the photos of her and her family. Don't be scared of the psychedelic feline. They have a barnful of them, but they're all very sweet.

|Fireball over Saudi Arabia. YouTube/faheem291 (screen capture)
April 24, 2016 - SPACE - The following constitutes several of the latest reports of fireballs, seen in the skies, across the globe.
Bright green meteor fireball explodes over Saudi ArabiaThat's nothing special! Just a bunch of kids playing football under the light of an incredibly bright bolide that exploded over northern Saudi Arabia, April 3, 2016.
Do you have more information about this sighting? Imagine the loud boom in the sky! Woah!

Giant fireball 'ten times brighter than the moon' turns night into day in this spectacular footageScientists caught the natural phenomenon that was caused by a piece of meteorite breaking off from a comet and hitting the Earth's atmosphere
Spanish scientists have captured the moment a fireball said to be ten times brighter than the moon hurtled through the sky.
The natural phenomenon was registered by the La Hita Observatory in Toledo in the early hours of this morning.
The incredible sight was caused by a 30kg meteorite, which had broken off from a comet, hitting the Earth's atmosphere.
The spectacle could also reportedly be seen in southern and eastern Spain, including the regions of Castilla-La Mancha, Valencia, Murcia and Andalusia. Jose Maria Mateido, a professor at the University of Huelva in south-western Spain, explained that the fireball gave out the extraordinarily bright light when it hit the Earth's atmosphere at around 56,000 mph.
He said: "This amazing fireball turned the night into day for a fraction of a second." The fireball is just one in a series of similar spectacles which have been gracing the night sky in the last few months.
Mr Mateido analyses these meteorites as an astrophysicist for Spain's Spectroscopy of Meteoroids in the Atmosphere by means of Robotic Technologies (SMART) project, which is a collaboration between Spanish observatories.
Meteorite lands on farm in Nigeria
About 10:45 am on March 12, farmers and hunters in Tse-Agena area of Mbatyula in Takum local government area of Taraba State heard a loud sound from the sky and then an object, suspected to be meteorite stone, landed.
The landing of the white object created panic.
Women and children were asked to vacate the farms immediately while men went to pick the object.
Mr. Shausu Agena, a farmer and an eye witness, said the object landed on a big tree in an empty farm land.
Agena, while speaking to Sunday Vanguard inside his hut in the village, said heavy sound accompanied the falling of the object from the sky.
The clan head of Mbatyula, Zaki Bem Tom, also disclosed that the object landed with a sound that was heard in several communities.
"It was in the morning. People were in their various farms when the object landed within our community. It was very shocking because some of us that witnessed it descending from the sky thought it was the end of the world," Ben Tom said.
"It took our brave men to go closer to the object so that we will know what it was. Initially when the object landed, it was pure white in color. Human faces were reflecting on the object like mirror. Then it turned pure black.
"We have been living in fear because we don't know what will follow".
The village head said the community reported the incident to the state government immediately and the Director of Minerals Resources was sent to Mbatyla.
"Before the official came, we had already removed the stone for safe-keeping and the person who kept the stone was not around when the Director visited.
Therefore, the Director could not see the stone.
"We are calling on government to commission a study of our area following the incident because we may be affected one day by nature".
When contacted, Taraba State Commissioner for the Environment, Mrs. Rebecca Manasseh, pleaded with the community to release the stone to the state government so that it could study it.
Rebecca, who spoke to Sunday Vanguard on phone, confirmed that the state sent its Director of Mineral Resources to the area after the incident was report to ascertain the nature of the 'mystery stone'.
She promised that her ministry was ready to investigate the issue as soon as the stone was released to the state government.
Blue-green fireball disintegrates over Ukraine and CrimeaWhat is this mysterious blue-green light crossing the sky of Kherson, Ukraine on April 11, 2016?
Two dashcam cameras recorded the amazing sky event at approximately 9:34 pm Moscow time, so 7:34 pm (UTC).
Has anybody witnessed it? The Lyrid meteor shower hasn't started yet, but the sky is already producing awesome natural fireworks.
A blue-green fireball (turquoise in the video description) was filmed by two dashcam cameras flying in the sky of Crimea and Kherson on April 11, 2016 7:34 pm (UTC).
Is this really a fireball? Most probably although it could have been mistaken for a space junk reentry or a missile due to the long duration of the disintegration process. But no reentries took place, the next one being scheduled for April 15, 2016.

15APR2016 Tiffany Binkley Calvert City, Ky 2230 3-5 N-W green; moon, no I was driving and there were trees all around me, but it looked huge.
15APR2016 Bryan Schaumburg, IL, USA 22:16 PM Central Only seen the last second or two of the burn E-W travel Stopped South West of Roselle Rd, facing SW Greenish White in color, no sound high beam headlight brightness, too dark to see any fragmentation. 7It was already moving fairly slowly when I seen it, and fairly close to the ground, probably below 500 ft. Too short of viewing time for any better guesses or info.
15APR2016 Andrew Rukavina Mundelein, IL USA approx 2215 hour 15 seconds from east to west i was driving south multi colored and very large between the Moon and Venus - very bright and large not sure it was large...it was not a reflection. I pulled over which i never do except once when I saw an amazing display of northern lights it was the biggest thing i've ever seen....I was heading southbound at intersection of 137 and 60 in Mundelein, IL. I had just made the turn onto 60 from 137 and was headed south, so no light pollution to create any illusions... I'm a 59 year old attorney... was not drinking or anything else...it flamed out shortly before it went over the cornfield.
15APR2016 Steve Wilson Rock Island,IL,USA 22:16 in Central Time Zone 3-4 seconds Facing South, I saw a bright white light with a tinge of blue streak from East to West. As bright as Venus on a clear night I'm not sure of fragmentation, but it reminded me of a sparkler as opposed to a single, solid point of light.
15APR2016 Anna St.Charles, IL, USA 22:14 5-10? East to West traveling burst of light/looked like fire. I was driving South on Kautz Rd, near DuPage Airport. A bright ball, looked like fire; it had a tail of blue behind it. I'm not sure I don't think so, maybe behind it. It really looked like it was on fire. I wondered if it was a piece from a plane I was driving, so no photo, Sorry. I know it was something, not sure what. It was not high in the sky, it came across my vision field from left to right (from East to West) as I was driving South. It was cool, but also a little scary. I wondered if it was part of a plane since we were adjacent to DuPage Airport.
15APR2016 Victoriano Berwyn, IL - 2200 5-10secs East to West facing South, green xeon bright fragment trail, green fireball.

Enormous meteor fireball seen across US Midwest
A meteor streaked across the St. Louis area on Friday at about 10:16pm. We received many reports from viewers about the shooting star. Sightings of the streak of greenish-blue light were reported in four states, Wisconsin, Illinois, Missouri, and Tennessee.
Two of our web cameras caught a great view of the meteor, Eckert's in Belleville, IL, and Mattress Direct in South St. Louis County . In the Belleville view, you'll see the green object streak across the screen followed by a spider walking across the camera lens.
We are in the midst of the Lyrid meteor shower, which is active each year in mid to late April. In 2016, the peak of this shower is expected on the morning of April 22, so there could be more shooting stars.

Huge bright meteor fireball lights up sky over Hampshire, EnglandUK Meteor Network releases incredible pictures of a space object dramatically burning up in Earth's atmosphere
The UK Meteor Network has recorded incredible pictures of a "fireball" lighting up the skies over Hampshire.
Stargazers took advantage of the clear weather to snap the meteor from four different locations at about 2am last night.
The group's camera network recorded black and white images of the astonishing fireball, which would have made a dramatic sight on a dark night.
It shone with an "intense" light which may even been bright enough to cast a shadow. The astronomical group posted several pictures of the fireball to its Twitter account .
Peter Campbell-Burns, a volunteer with the Meteor Network, told The Mirror that it was unusual to see such a bright meteor.
"We're catching meteors every single night, but it's rare we see one as bright as this," he said.
"It's a fairly exceptional event which generally happens once every two or three years."This massive fireball was visible from the Network's outposts in Church Crookham, Clanfield and Basingstoke, which are all in Hampshire. It was also spotted from the Norman Lockyer Observatory in Sidmouth, Devon.
The meteor-spotters recently published images of a blue and green meteor which coincided with St. Patrick's Day on March 17 and shone as bright as a full moon.
It is believed the unusual spectacle was caused by magnesium in the meteor.
"It's quiet rare to see one meteor this bright," Campbell-Burns added.
"To get two in the space of about a month is even more unusual."
