'Thursday Night Football' Takes On Domestic Violence for Second Week
Ads running during the broadcast included spots for U2's new album and Fox Searchlight's 'The Drop'
For the second week in a row, Thursday Night Football addressed domestic violence during its broadcast.
CBS Sports' Bill Cowher said he thought most in the NFL were upset by the damage recent domestic violence scandals were inflicting on the league's image, while Tampa Bay Buccaneers coach Lovie Smith condemned domestic violence in a prerecorded interview broadcast during the pregame show.
"You don't have to tell a man he shouldn't hit a woman," Smith told CBS' James Brown. "When you're dealing with your children, what's more precious than our kids?"
Unlike last week, the pregame show didn't dedicate its entire broadcast to the issue of domestic violence, instead spending about 15 minutes on the subject
Ahead of the game, several high-profile advertisers — including Bud Light maker Anheuser-Busch and PepsiCo — expressed concern with the NFL's handling of the scandals. Meanwhile, Verizon CEO Lowell McAdam wrote in a LinkedIn post that the focus should be put on domestic violence, not the NFL.
Verizon ads ran during the broadcast, as did spots for Fox Searchlight's The Drop, Universal's A Walk Among the Tombstones, U2's iTunes album Songs of Innocence, Corona, Wendy's, Dunkin' Donuts, Hyundai, Nationwide insurance, Mazda and Audi.
According to Thursday Night Football's pregame show, Procter & Gamble informed players it was pulling a Crest toothpaste breast cancer awareness initiative that would have seen players wearing pink mouthguards.
The NFL has been rocked by three high-profile cases of domestic violence over the past two weeks. Former Ravens running back Ray Rice was indefinitely suspended from the NFL last week after video surfaced of him knocking out his then-fiancee. Meanwhile, Vikings running back Adrian Peterson is being investigated for suspected child abuse, and Arizona Cardinals' running back Jonathan Dwyer was arrested for domestic violence Wednesday.
The broadcast comes one week after Thursday Night Football cut a Rihanna song from its opener, a move that has drawn criticism from the singer, who says the NFL is punishing her for being a victim of domestic violence.
Thursday's game saw the Buccaneers play the Atlanta Falcons.

Orlando police arrested a man after they found him with the drug Molly, which is apparently becoming popular among teens.
Police said they pulled over Adrian McGhee on a traffic violation, but found he had 25 capsules of Molly, a pure form of Ecstasy, on him.
“He immediately got pulled out the car, cops searched him, and put him back into the cop car,” said witness David Castro. Police said McGhee, who is currently on probation for another drug charge, also had a large sum of money on him. McGhee was charged with trafficking a controlled substance. He has since bonded out of jail. Medical professionals said they’re seeing a rise in the number of younger people who are taking the dangerous drug. [Read full story]

BEIJING — Pakistani Prime Minister Yousaf Raza Gilani arrived in China on Tuesday fora four-day visit, picking up some welcome diplomatic support at a critical moment in Pakistan’s relations with the United States.
The prime minister’s visit was planned as part of a long-planned celebration of diplomatic ties, but analysts said Pakistan is using it to hint that China is an alternative source of security and economic aid — a reassuring message for a nation angered and humiliated by the covert American raid that killed Osama bin Laden.
“It is being used for show, for politics, for domestic reasons, to show to the Pakistani public that if relations deteriorate with the United States, China is there to swing in with diplomatic and other support,” said Andrew Small, a fellow with the German Marshall Fund in Brussels. “China is playing along to some extent because Pakistan is in sort of a tight spot at the moment.”
I love the New York Times. It takes them three paragraphs to say what other websites and news outlets never even bother to mention. Attention bloggers who would be journalists: this is how you do it. But I digress...
The irony in all this is our ties to Pakistan originally stem from the Cold War, when India was a lukewarm allied democracy (if not a cold enemy) and on friendly terms with the Soviets, and Pakistan, being India's mortal enemy, became our proxy in the region. This tie began in earnest in 1955 under the auspices of the old Baghdad Pact, which created CENTO and I won't bore you much with the details, except to say that when push came to shove in the 1965 Indo-Pakistani war, the US punked out on its military and aid commitments.
This was the same agreement that sees Turkey and America as allies, by the way. The US and Pakistan have danced around alliances ever since.
This explains to an extent Pakistan's alliances with the Taliban. After all, if you have an ally of the weight of the US and that weight is not being thrown about in your favor, you're going to start extending hands to others.
Which brings us to today's story, which should be of some concern. I do not think China is about to use Pakistan as a bargaining chip with the US. There's really not much there against our interests.
China's interest in Pakistan is pretty clear: India. This is where the Times story falls a little short, but it's understandable. It's a tough bit to explain quickly.
India could one day soon be the dominant economy in the world. Right now, in terms of purchasing power, India ranks fourth (tenth by GDP), she has the world's third largest army, and nukes. It is the second largest country in terms of population (after China), with a birth rate that exceeds replacement rate (1.41%, by latest estimates. The world averages 1.13%. China is below 1%.)
China must see this as a threat to its dominance in the 21st century. By contrast, America, the top of the heap, is an aging country, whereas India's median age is somewhere in the mid-20s. It has a bright future ahead of it.
Too, Pakistan's interest in China has some overtones of the Indian threat. Pakistan has to be concerned, much like Mexico and Canada once were about the rise of America's might. India is a formidable foe, and might be able to dictate terms unilaterally to Pakistan, effectively outsourcing the way we outsourced our manufacturing and blue collar jobs.
Of course, Mexico and Canada didn't have nukes back then....

A Comprehensive Look at the Specs and Features
The Glock 23 has become one of the more popular gun models on the market, and it’s easy to see why. With its slim profile, lightweight frame, and single stack magazine, it’s an ideal choice for concealment or everyday carry. However, before you go spending money on this particular model of handgun, you should take the time to get familiar with all of its features and specifications so that you can make an informed decision about whether or not it’s the right gun for you.
The Glock 23 is a striker-fired semi-automatic pistol that was first introduced in 1988. The gun has a polymer frame with a steel slide and a 4.01-inch barrel. The gun is available in both Gen 4 and Gen 5 models. The Glock 23 has a magazine capacity of 13 rounds. This product has an overall length of 7.32 inches, a height of 5.47 inches, and a width of 1.27 inches. It weighs 22 ounces unloaded with an empty magazine inserted in the grip housing area. The Glock 23 gen 4 and gen 5 models have three interchangeable backstraps which allow users to adjust their weapon to fit their hand size.
The gun has a terrin tactical slide with an extended barrel. It has a slightly longer barrel than the Glock 23 Gen 5, but both models have the same basic features. It is a reliable and accurate gun that is perfect for self-defense or competition shooting. It has 10mm automatic caliber and 17 rounds in the magazine. If you are looking for a good home defense weapon, this could be your pick! Glock pistols are sleek and compact which makes them easy to conceal.
The Glock 23 is an affordable pistol for anyone on a budget. With its affordable price point, you can save up money to purchase other weapons like the AR-15 rifle.
The gun is a .40 S&W caliber pistol. This means that it can chamber and fire .40 S&W rounds. It has a terrin tactical glock 23 barrel. This means that the rifling in the barrel is designed to twist slightly to the right, making it easier for bullets to spin and stabilize in flight. The Glock 23 also has a glock 23 gen 5 trigger. It comes with three Glock magazines of varying capacities. It’s safe to say that the Glock 23 is one of the most versatile pistols on the market today.
The Glock 23 comes with two 13-round capacity magazines. You can also purchase extended magazines that hold up to 33 rounds. If you’re looking for a high-capacity option, the terrin tactical glock 23 is a great choice. The glock 23 barrel is 4.01 inches long, making it one of the shorter barrels on the market. It has a 5.5 pound trigger pull which makes shooting it accurately easier than other pistols out there. It’s important to note that this gun isn’t considered concealable. When choosing your holster, make sure you find one made specifically for carrying a glock 23 pistol in order to get the most accurate fit possible.
Sights and Finger Grooves
The Glock 23 comes with standard white dot sights, which are great for close-range target acquisition. The finger grooves on the grip provide a comfortable and secure grip, while the serrations on the slide help you cycle the action quickly and smoothly. Overall, the Glock 23 is a great choice for a concealed carry firearm. It’s lightweight and compact size make it easy to conceal in your waistband or jacket pocket. Its low recoil makes it an excellent option for beginners who want to learn how to shoot without getting sore from recoil or injuring themselves. The lack of external safety makes it ideal for those who don’t want to have to think about whether they have their gun or not when they’re out in public.
Barrel Length and Rifling
The Glock 23 has a barrel length of 4.01 inches (102 mm) with right-hand hexagonal rifling. The rifling consists of six grooves with a land width of 0.55 mm (0.022 in). The twist rate is 9.84 in (250 mm) RH. That’s all there is to know about the barrel, so we’ll move on to something more exciting: sights!
It comes with a few basic accessories, but there are many more that can be purchased to customize your experience. For example, you can buy an extended magazine release or different sights. You can also find a variety of holsters to fit your needs. Some popular choices include soft holsters, inside-the-waistband (IWB) holsters, outside-the-waistband (OWB) holsters, and ankle holsters. If you’re looking for something special, such as a holster that fits your specific model or a holster made from special materials like leather or neoprene, it may take some time to find what you’re looking for.

Operating framework heralds renewed push on extended opening hours
By Gareth Iacobucci
PCTs have been ordered to commission additional GP services in areas where practices are not offering extended hours.
The NHS Operating Framework for 2010/11 says the drive to improve access must remain high on trusts' agenda, despite the need to focus on making efficiency savings to weather the financial crisis.
It instructs PCTs which still have some local GP practices not providing extended hours to commission other services that will provide patients with better access.
The instruction runs alongside the Government's proposal to abolish the current system of GP boundaries, to allow patients to register at practices further away from where they live.
PCTs are also told to closely monitor the services being offered at new GP health centres and APMS practices, to ensure they are delivering sufficiently ‘effective and innovative services' for improving access.
The operating framework says: ‘Patients should be able to choose a GP practice offering extended access to evening and weekend appointments. Every PCT should ensure that they continue to make progress in ensuring that the availability of these services matches local needs.'
‘In particular, in so far as some local practices are not providing extended opening, PCTs should commission other services that secure commensurate benefits.'
The framework has granted PCTs an overall 5.5% increase in allocations for 2010/1, to ensure the NHS is on ‘a firm financial footing' to try and meet the stiff challenges set out.
But hospitals will receive less than a third of the tariff price for any emergency activity above 2008/9 levels in a bid to create a system that incentivises the shift of care out of hospital settings.
The plan reiterates the pledge for all NHS organisations to reduce overheads and management costs by 30% - first announced last week in the NHS's new five year plan - while at the same time vowing to tighten the screw on trusts that are underperforming in World Class Commissioning.
A DH spokesman said: ‘We will protect front-line NHS spending for the following two years to 2012/13, but standing still will not be an option: demand for services and patients' expectations will increase, as will advances in medical technology and innovation.'
Dr Michael Dixon, chairman of NHS Alliance, welcomed the changes to national tariffs. He said: ‘The outcomes of a change in tariff could be very positive indeed. In those areas where PBR has been thought to inflate costs, some trusts will be able to offer considerably under tariff and thus benefit patients and the taxpayer.'Extended hours

It’s easy to let the transfer window play tricks on you. For every Ornstein and Romano, there are a thousand other outlets and Twitter accounts aching to be the first to break the big news about a transfer. Take a half-credible source, throw in a rumor about big club and big-name player, and the internet will take care of the rest.
At Arsenal, few names loom as large as that of Mesut Ozil, a player emblematic of the last decade of Arsenal - a decade marked by decline, change, and uncertainty for the storied north London club. The out-of-favor midfielder is easy picking for any outlet that wants clicks. Since his falling out with Unai Emery and now Mikel Arteta, his discord with the club has made him a prime target for salacious articles at the club and player’s expense.
Entering one final transfer window before his inevitable exit this summer, the rumors are in full tilt once again, with the World Cup winner being linked to DC United and Turkish side Fenerbahce over the past two days.
Exclusive: Mesut Ozil is in negotiations with DC United.— Chris Wheatley (@ChrisWheatley_) January 5, 2021
The MLS side have offered an attractive package which will see the expansion of his M10 brand across the US.https://t.co/8o3oQTIT3V
BREAKING Mesut Ozil 'agrees Fenerbahce transfer' as he looks to end Arsenal nightmare https://t.co/P8urM23ZZ5 pic.twitter.com/KDiSslJYOj— Mirror Football (@MirrorFootball) January 6, 2021
These rumors have all but dominated the Arsenal transfer rumor conversation since they first surfaced 36 hours ago. Having strong ties to his native Turkey and having been previously linked to DC United in the past, these rumors didn’t need much help before they set Twitter ablaze. For what it’s worth, the Washington, D.C. local DCU beat writers say there is nothing to the links.
Couple these rumors with Arteta’s insistence has made it clear that he wants to clear out the dead wood from the club to make way for new signings, and they start to make much more sense. Mesut has been the biggest piece of dead wood on the pile for some time now, eating up a huge portion of Arsenal’s wage bill despite not seeing the pitch since March of 2020. I’m awful at math, and even I can see how it all adds up.
The low-hanging fruit of these rumors can often be too tantalizing to pass up (take it from me, folks). But the reality is that Ozil has no reason to exit the club. Many will point at a lack of playing time, but let’s be clear - Ozil, in his current situation, has all the cards. He makes an ungodly sum of money to be little more than a social media cheerleader for the club at this point, laughing all the way to the bank. The worse Arsenal perform, the more the media clamor for Arteta to insert him back into the lineup. The better they perform, the better he looks for his exceedingly positive support of the club. No matter the outcome, it is win-win for Mesut.
He isn’t going anywhere. He has numerous business interests including an esports franchise and a streetwear brand to occupy his time, his numerous charitable endeavors, not to mention a new wife and even newer child. If he wants to keep playing, he’ll get a new contract somewhere this summer; it’ll be worth less than the £350K-per-week he makes right now, but it will still be worth well over six figures. Would you risk injury and jeopardizing that next deal when you could just, well, not?
It is safe to say that many parties, the club and the player included, want to finally and mercifully move on from this situation. And for all we know, there could be genuine fire to all of this smoke. But for a player of Ozil’s visibility and notoriety, the rumors will continue until the ink has dried, regardless of their authenticity. At the end of the day, though, only one party has the ability to put it all to bed - Mesut Ozil.
As always, we will update this situation as more details emerge.


A new Alexa Voice Remote Lite, which is what Amazon calls the remote that comes with the Fire TV Stick Lite, has just gone through regulatory approval. This remote, which is the only Fire TV remote that does not have buttons to control TV power and volume, was released just over a year ago, yet it seems that Amazon is already gearing up to replace it with a newer version.
The Alexa Voice Remote Lite debuted in September 2020 alongside the announcement of the Fire TV Stick Lite, Amazon’s first sub-$30 Fire TV model. It was likely a crucial factor in reaching that new low price, since it lacks all the advanced equipment control capabilities of the full-fledged Alexa Voice Remote. Now, a new model has received Bluetooth regulatory approval and has passed through Brazil’s regulatory filing.
The new remote is listed in the regulatory filing as an “Alexa Voice Remote Lite,” so it will presumably replace the current remote. It appears to be codenamed “Eiger” and has a model number of “E4GE9R.” It does not appear as though this new remote has passed through the FCC in the US yet, so it may still be months away from release. Not much else is known about the new remote at this time.

The landscape of global business is changing. While World 1 economies still dominate the global business landscape, more and more companies based in World 2 and even World 3 are making their presence known on a worldwide scale.
These rising giants are not only serving — and in some cases dominating — their home markets, but they also are increasingly seeking to expand into other markets, both from other emerging economies and from developed economies. The growth and expansion of companies from emerging economies will dramatically transform the global business landscape in the next two decades.
Over the last century, the auto industry has put more than 1 billion vehicles on the world’s roadways—and continues to add more. Over the last five decades, the industry has averaged sales growth of 3% per year—double the growth of the world’s population over that period.
Yet the automobile industry is undergoing a dramatic transformation. Sales in what have traditionally been the industry’s strongest markets have leveled off in recent decades, but they continue to grow rapidly in emerging markets, especially China.
In Europe and most advanced economies, government regulation and growing consumer interest are driving the development and deployment of vehicles that reduce the consumption of fossil fuels and resultant carbon emissions.
While the expanding market for more sustainable vehicles does not yet signal the imminent demise of the internal combustion engine, the combination of consumer demand and regulatory pressure will accelerate the shift toward hybrid, electric, and alternative-fuel vehicles over the next two to three decades.
The wealth of time and interest devoted to the development of smart cars in recent years often overshadows equally significant advancements in a related sector: the roadways that such cars will navigate. Smarter roads may not have received as much attention as the advent of smart cars; however, governments, entrepreneurs, and innovative companies have been allocating substantial research and development resources toward their creation.
When the Panama Canal opened in 1914, it revolutionized shipping, dramatically cutting the amount of time it took to ship goods to North American and South American ports, both east and west. But as trade between the Americas and Asia grew in the 20th century, the engineering marvel known as the Panama Canal became increasingly obsolete.
Massive ships that carried up to three times the freight of ships a generation earlier became more prevalent in the shipping industry. But these supersize ships were too big to navigate the Canal.

A Milos Forman Film
(Theatrical Version) Rated PG
(Director's Cut) Rated R
My Rating: 3 stars
F. Murray Abraham
Amadeus Wolgang Mozart, genius musician such as the world has never seen before or after. But genius that he is, Mozart has many faults. Those two factors combined lead to his death and the everlasting guilt of Antonio Salieri.
People question if this film is accurate but from what I have read, I must say that I believe this portrait of Mozart is fairly correct. He was a foolhardy, spendthrift, arrogant man who was given a gift that the rest of us can only dream about. I loved how this movie showed Mozart composing and explained to a certain extent how his mind worked in music. Mozart understood the science of music when he was 4 years old. He was absolutely amazing.
The Director's Cut of Amadeus had twenty minutes of extra footage in it that jacked the rating way up to R. Some of it I think could have been left out completely. However, I was glad I was able to watch some of it because it actually gave me a bigger picture of what Mozart was like and the extent of Silieri's hate.
What I Liked:
1: The music
2: That crazy laugh that makes me smile whenever I hear it (though I can't vouch for that being accurate... this is the first I've heard of it)
3: Salieri's hate and methods of destroying Mozart were very realistic.
4: How well cast Mozart, Silieri and the King were. They totally merged into their characters and became one. It was amazing to watch the extra footage later and seeing them out of character! It was as if they were completely different people. ::applauds::
5: 99% of the movie was believably 18th century.
6: This film left me with a feeling like I would never watch a movie quite like it again. It is unique.
What I didn't Like:
1: Mozart is portrayed as a very vulgar man. I am fairly sure he was but they seemed to go overboard a couple times. Thus...
2: Crude language (this is in the Director's Cut) occurs several times.
3: Mozart's Wife, Constanze, is shot with frontal nudity. This definitely could have been completely cut... and it is in the Theatrical Version of the movie.
4: One shot of Mozart and Constanze without their wigs is very, very 80's. That drove me crazy. Lol! But the rest of the movie was so good that I was able to forgive them. :-)
5: Elizabeth Berridge played Constanze Mozart. She was a good actor and I was impressed with her talent. But I must admit that I found in 50% of her scenes, she wasn't Constanze, she was only playing Constanze. Big difference. I couldn't forget that she was Elizabeth Berridge.

FusionFall, Cartoon Network's upcoming MMO for kids, will be opening the floodgates this weekend, offering players a first look at the game for free.
The sneak peek starts tomorrow and ends on Sunday, and will include access to the entire game – including the bits that won't be free once the game officially launches on January 14th. While it's obviously designed for kids, there's a lot of well-polished content in there for fans of all ages.
To play, you'll need to sign up for a FusionFall account, or use your existing Cartoon Network account. The game runs on the Unity 3D browser plugin, which runs fine in Firefox or Internet Explorer – I haven't had much luck with Google's Chrome however.
Besides, Wrath of the Lich King won't be going anywhere, so your Gnome's trip to Northrend can wait.

Tottenham Hotspur, Everton, Chelsea, Manchester United, and West Ham United are the talk of the papers today.
Bob Diamond, the architect of Barclays' investment banking expansion, stepped down as Group CEO, succumbing to political pressure to go after the bank admitted to rigging global interest rates.
U.K. Chancellor of the Exchequer George Osborne said the Serious Fraud Office and other agencies are investigating whether criminal charges can be brought over the Libor-rigging scandal.
Regardless of what happens to John Terry in court, the impact on QPR's Anton Ferdinand should not be forgotten.
Barclays CEO Bob Diamond has resigned.
Barclays' settlement of about $451m with U.S. and U.K. regulators last week offered the first glimpse of what banks may have to pay to resolve a global probe of interest-rate manipulation. The question now is who’s next.
David Cameron has announced that a joint committee of MPs and peers will investigate the banking industry by the end of the year, in the wake of growing political anger at recent scandals.
You can hear it in our voices; in the energised, excitable banter between us – and in the venom of the lash and crackle of skipping ropes smacking the gym floor.

My daughter Beaner works for a not-for-profit that helps young people who have social disadvantages or have had some problems with the law try to get on a professional track. Last year she started working with a young high school student who wants to be a fashion designer. They started researching colleges and began working on her applications and the required portfolio. She had okay grades but an obvious talent for design, (said by a person who lives in baggy jeans and ‘Life is Good’ t-shirts) but all the fashion schools required that along with a portfolio of designs, that she submit photos of pieces she had made herself. She had a creative talent but she didn’t have a sewing machine and she didn’t know how to sew.
So Beaner got a sewing machine donated and then asked me to teach her. Almost every Tuesday night last year she and I would meet in Beaner’s offices to sew. She had to carry that heavy machine to school in the morning, and then on a city bus to get to the office and then another bus to get home. Her dedication to this effort has amazing. I just showed up and had a lot of fun.
A couple of days ago she got a rejection from her first choice college and we were all bummed.. But then yesterday came an acceptance to her second choice - FIT - the Fashion Institute of Technology in New York City! She and Beaner are now feverishly working on scholarships.
My volunteer work these days centers mostly on elderly or sick people. But I see the appeal of working with young folks and my daughter’s career goals of “just being able to help one person change their life.” It is an incredibly satisfying feeling for me to have been even a small part of this young woman’s dream. And I am so frickin’ proud of my daughter’s hard work and dedication to living her dream.
Of course, there is a quid pro quo for me. I have extracted a promise that when this woman becomes a famous fashion designer, I will get a front row seat to the fashion show runway and rub elbows with the rich and famous.
But first, she’ll have to make me something to wear.


St. Paul's NAACP chapter has come out against the school district's proposed 2014 strategic plan, saying it would resegregate schools and might violate state and federal equal opportunity laws.
The plan "should be rejected because it will predictably increase segregation in the schools by race and income, and maintain, if not exacerbate, the unacceptable educational results for students of color," said an NAACP statement, which was presented by the group's education task force and accepted by the executive committee. School district officials learned about it Wednesday.
The proposed 2014 plan, if approved, will end citywide transportation and eliminate a number of St. Paul's magnet school programs; both measures were the result of decades-long efforts to increase diversity in the district and close the achievement gap between white students and students of color.
In a statement, Superintendent Valeria Silva said: "I am disheartened by the NAACP's lack of support. ... I have personally met with members of the NAACP's education committee about the plan and we've discussed the urgency we all share about closing the achievement gap. I strongly believe that our plan, which is based on a year-long analysis of data and study of this District, will do just that."
Victoria Davis, the chair of St. Paul's NAACP education committee, said the group will look into filing a lawsuit against the district if the plan is passed.
"We had to fight and we succeeded in making sure there's room for our kids," Davis said. "When you don't have anybody fighting for you, people go back to their routine. And their routine is what they normally desire and that's to support some and not others."
With less than a week before the plan is to be voted on by the school board, the position pits the NAACP against school administrators, St. Paul Mayor Chris Coleman and a group of African-American leaders and ministers who recently threw their support behind the plan.
The local NAACP chapter joins other civil rights organizations nationwide that have protested school districts for what they perceive as efforts to dismantle integration.
The 2014 plan divides the St. Paul district into six regions, all of which the district contends are already racially and socioeconomically diverse. Students would be provided transportation to their neighborhood school, their regional magnet school or any of the citywide magnet schools.
The district has not drawn specific neighborhood school boundaries yet, which will likely affect the makeup of a school's student body.
Jim Hilbert is the executive director of the Center for Negotiation and Justice at the William Mitchell College of Law. He wrote the NAACP's response to the plan, and said St. Paul is not and has never been diverse.
"St. Paul is one of the most segregated cities in the country," he said, citing research done by the Institute on Race and Poverty. "Anybody who says the housing patterns are racially and economically integrated needs to look at a map."
"It appears that [the NAACP] definition of desegregated is predominantly white. Our school district is 75 percent students of color," Silva said in her response.
"We believe their analysis is oversimplified and in some cases just plain wrong," she said.
Hilbert successfully led a 1995 lawsuit in Minneapolis against a plan that ended citywide transportation and sent kids to neighborhood schools. The settlement allowed students to transfer out of the district, and thousands did.
Since the St. Paul plan was introduced in January, Silva has lobbied community members for support in 40 meetings throughout the district. She says that the plan was written to close the achievement gap, cut spending and bring a potential $22 million in revenue over the next four years by attracting more students.
Tyrone Terrill is the chair of the African American Leadership Council, which supports the plan. He doesn't believe the plan will make schools more segregated, but said if it does he is willing to sacrifice diversity for student success.
"Children are failing at a notorious rate in our schools," he said. "We're giving something else a chance now. If I'm on the critical list and one medication doesn't work and they say they have something new, I'm going to try the new medicine. I'm already dying."

Steven Leeds and Ericksonian Hypnotherapy
Milton H. Erickson, M.D. is considered the father of modern hypnotherapy. The therapy he engendered, Ericksonian hypnotherapy, is one of the fastest growing and influential branches of hypnotherapy today. His methods have inspired short-term strategic therapy, the rebirth of guided imagery, and Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) to name a few. Even John Bradshaw in both of his acclaimed series on PBS, frequently quotes Erickson and calls him “the greatest therapist who ever lived.”
Steven, following in the path of Erickson, believes in the wisdom of the unconscious mind, and in the theory that people have all the resources necessary to make changes inside themselves. For Steven, the job of the therapist is to help the client re-establish his/her connection with his/her inner resources and to develop a rapport between the conscious and the unconscious mind. Steve’s approach is to create a soothing, rhythmic flow designed to engage the listener, experientially, in the present moment and in doing so, activate the connection to the flow of unconscious resources in the form of inner symbols, sounds and bodily sensations promoting healing and well being.

Mathematical tools for the derivation of hydrodynamic limits
- 1.6k Downloads
In all existing works on the subject, the general strategy to derive hydrodynamic limits is to proceed by analogy, that is to recognize the structure of the expected limiting hydrodynamic model in the corresponding scaled Boltzmann equation. This explains for instance why all hydrodynamic limits are not equally understood.
The aim of this chapter is therefore to detail these analogies, focusing our attention on the point of view of functional analysis.

My truck seems to run fine, but someone recently asked me if I had the drive shaft balanced. Do I need to get it balanced?
Q. During one of the severe snowstorms this past winter, I got hung up on a snowbank with my 2014 Ford F-150. It has four-wheel drive, and I lost the drive shaft to the rear wheels. I managed to get the truck off the snowbank and drive it to a mechanic. He was able to weld the broken part of the driveshaft and put it back on the truck. It seems to run fine, but someone recently asked me if I had it balanced. Do I need to get the drive shaft balanced, and who would be able to balance it if I do?
A. There are specialty shops that balance drive shafts, but most shops will either replace it with a used unit from a salvage yard or replace it with a new one. If a drive shaft is out of balance, the body of the truck or the seat will vibrate. If you are not feeling any vibration and the welding was performed correctly, I wouldn’t be concerned. If you want to be absolutely sure, you could have your shop take out the drive shaft and send it to a machine shop to check the balance and the integrity of the welds.

Android Wear, although not as popular as Apple’s WatchOS, comes with great features. With settings such as “tilt to wake screen”, features such as screen always on, users can easily find directions by the voice from the phone and choose transport mode. Via Google Fit, Android Wear supports ride and run tracking. It also supports sampling of heart activity, step-counting, calorie burnt etc. Android Wear Watch lets users control their phone, request music and seamlessly enjoy play-control, volume control among a host of other user-friendly control options. The next iteration of Google’s smartwatch operation system – Android Wear 2.0 will be released to the public soon.
Android Wear 2.0 release date
The Android Wear 2.0 was supposed to be launched by Google last fall. Since the feedback from the developer preview wasn’t that positive, Google had to reschedule the release. Google has now notified developers that Wear 2.0 is coming soon and asked those with unsupported Android Wear code to update their apps. Those who don’t will find the software unavailable in the Play Store. If you can recollect, Google had announced the standalone feature of Android Wear 2.0 during Google I/O Developer Conference last year. Google wants developers to update their existing apps so that they can be run in standalone mode, without dependency on smartphone Wi-Fi to install apps. In all likelihood, Android Wear 2.0 will release to the public in February.
Although the date hasn’t been officially announced by Google, it’s quite evident that Google will release it in a few weeks from now, given that it has already notified developers about Android Wear 2.0. The developer page of Android Wear 2.0 specifically mentions “support stand alone Wear devices and apps”, “create enhanced user interaction” and “glancable experiences”. Android Wear 2.0 Developer Preview gives developers everything that they need to get started with the next version of Android Wear. Developers can run and test apps on supported Wear devices or the emulator, report issues and provide feedback.
Google Android Wear 2.0 to take on Apple WatchOS and Samsung Gear S2, S3?
In December 2016, Google began collaborating with Cronologics, a platform for smart, diverse smartwatches. Cronologics had developed the OS for CoWatch. Google’s collaboration with Cronologics will help grow the portfolio of watches powered by Android Wear. Android Wear has so far failed to compete effectively with WatchOS and Samsung Gear. Google is very keen on making a comeback with Android Wear 2.0. It remains to be seen if Google Android Wear 2.0 will become as popular as WatchOS.

King Charles may ban Prince Harry and Meghan Markle from his Coronation over the Netflix drama, an expert has warned.
As Prince Harry and Meghan's docuseries is due to be released tomorrow, December 8, many are wondering what it will include and also how the rest of the royal family will react to it.
As a lot of people are calling for Harry and Meghan's title to be stripped from them, some believe that the little communication Harry has with his family will disappear.
Royal expert Richard Fitzwilliams told the Sun that the royal family might cut all ties with Prince Harry and Meghan following the release of their new docuseries on Netflix.
Richard said: “The question is, what can the royals do about it? Harry will always remain a prince.
“The only thing they can do is not invite them to the Coronation, and cut all ties – a clean cut from the Sussexes.
“Essentially, that’s all they can do.”
Royal correspondent Jennie Bond exclusively told OK! that she hopes the dust will settle between Harry and his family before the coronation, because it would be “curtains for their family relationship” if he and Meghan chose to not attend the event in May.
She said: “I think we’ve got to get this documentary out of the way. And then [Harry’s] book.
“Once that’s all out in the open, surely that must be the end of the firing salvos across the Atlantic?
“There is a little bit of breathing space because there’ll be two or three months when all of this stuff will be done and dusted.
"And hopefully, once it’s all out in the open, the healing can begin – if it is going to take place at all.”
Jennie continued: “It would be extraordinary if the King’s second son was not at the coronation. I think if they don’t turn up for that then it’s got to be curtains for their family relationships really.
“This is a once in a generation by definition, so surely, surely, surely he will be there.”
In the new teaser which was released for their series, which drops on Netflix on December 8, Harry confessed that “no one knows the full truth” and called life as a member of the royal family a “dirty game”.
The 38-year-old prince narrates: “It’s really hard to look back on it now and go ‘what on earth happened?’
“There’s a hierarchy of the family, you know, there’s leaking, but there’s also planting of stories. It’s a dirty game.”
It comes just a few days after a black advocate for survivors of domestic abuse revealed that she was repeatedly asked by a member of the Buckingham Palace household where she “really came from” while attending the Queen Consort's reception.
It was later revealed that the person making the racist remarks were none other than Prince William's godmother Lady Susan Hussey, who also who served as Elizabeth II’s lady in waiting for more than 60 years.

Netflix ‘Defenders’ Sets ‘Jessica Jones’ Director for First Episodes
Hard to believe we’ve already gotten to the point of Marvel’s Netflix heroes teaming up, with with Defenders production looming, our first director has hit the scene. Jessica Jones helmer S.J. Clarkson will pickup directorial duties on not one, but two of the eight-part Defenders series.
Marvel officially confirmed that Clarkson will direct the first two installments of Marvel’s Netflix Defenders, as well reiterating that the eight-episode miniseries would air in 2017, along with Iron Fist and Punisher. Clarkson previously helmed the first two Jessica Jones episodes “AKA Ladies Night” and “AKA Crush Syndrome,” but is not yet confirmed for the second season’s all-female director list.
Says Marvel TV boss Jeph Loeb of the Defenders hire:
S.J.’s take on the material is outstanding. We loved her work on “Marvel’s Jessica Jones” and couldn’t think of a more talented and accomplished person to helm the first two episodes of “Marvel’s The Defenders.”
The team-up series will be helmed by Daredevil showrunners Doug Petrie and Marco Ramirez, set to begin production later this year. Returning characters so far include Luke Cage’s Simone Missick, Daredevil’s Elden Henson and Scott Glenn, and Jessica Jones’ Eka Darville., while Sigourney Weaver has signed on as the main, as-yet-unidentified villain.
We’ll learn more as The Defenders officially gears up for production, but what other familiar faces should we expect signing on?


Germany still discussing supplying long-range weapons to Ukraine
German Foreign Minister Annalena Baerbock, in Ukraine's Black Sea port of Odesa on Saturday, said Germany was still discussing whether to supply long-range weapons to Ukraine.
"Of course, everything (in regards to military support) we are delivering is too little," she said at a press conference after paying an unannounced visit to the country.
"We're racking our brains, especially through the past year, about the issue of how to deliver more, including long-range weapons systems," she said at the event, held jointly with her Ukrainian counterpart Dmytro Kuleba on the second anniversary of Russia's military invasion of Ukraine.
Ukrainian leaders have been pushing their Western counterparts to deliver new weapons systems, above all longer-range missiles to strike further behind Russian lines, such as U.S. ATACMS and Germany's Taurus cruise missiles.
German lawmakers approved further military support for Ukraine on Thursday, including long-range weapon systems, but rejected a call by the opposition to deliver Taurus to Kyiv.


Highways and Interstates
The "good roads" state is quickly turning into the "traffic congestion" state. Both rural and urban interstates are poorly maintained and congested (see Figures 1 and 2 below).
One reason for the deterioration of the state's roads is that the General Assembly has not dedicated all highway-related revenues to highway construction and maintenance. Since 1990, a total of over $4 billion in proceeds from gas and car taxes have been spent on transit or General Fund programs (see Figure 4 below). While most of this transfer was originally intended to offset tax changes in the 1989 transportation bill, it is long past time that all gas and car taxes be dedicated to highway investment.
The legislature has ignored the politicized decision-making process at the Board of Transportation, which continues to misallocate road building funds based on political considerations, not documented transportation needs.
The General Assembly continues to allow the over-funding of public transit at the expense of roads. These failures have contributed to a deteriorating road system. The legislature must restore public confidence by spending highway user fees on highways, not on politicians' pet projects.
- While North Carolina's highway system ranks 21st of 50 states in overall performance, it ranks 42nd in urban interstate congestion (Figures 1 and 2 below).
- The state's urban interstate congestion ranking (42nd) is the worst among its competitor states in the Southeast (Figure 2 below).
- State officials have estimated North Carolina's highway needs at $50 billion to $70 billion over 25 years.
- For the first half of 2012, North Carolina's tax on gasoline was 39.2 cents per gallon (cpg). The 2012 budget bill adjusted and capped the rate at 37.5 cents. Both rates are the highest in our region (Figure 3 below shows the comparison for early 2012).
- Since 1990 the General Assembly has transferred more than $4 billion from the Highway Trust Fund to the General Fund (Figure 4).
- Spending $8.2 billion in federal, state and local funds on rail transit in the Triangle that will carry less than one percent of the traveling public is a poor investment (see the Urban Rail Transit section).
- The state's huge financial investment in the Charlotte LYNX light rail system has not paid off in reduced traffic congestion or air pollution since this system carries only 0.07 percent of the motorized passenger miles in the metro area.
- Nationally, rail transit has been a wasteful diversion of highway funds from effective and efficient traffic congestion reducing projects. Of the 33 major U.S. cities with rail transit, only six carry more than one percent of the passenger miles in the area and 22 carry less than one-half of one percent. This costly record has failed, in many cases, to produce measurable reductions in traffic congestion or air pollution.
- Stop transferring funds from the Highway Trust Fund to the General Fund. While smaller amounts have been transferred recently, this practice diverts much-needed funds from highway construction and maintenance.
- Do not raise North Carolina's already-high gas tax. To make money available for high-priority road projects, the state should stop funding projects with low expected usage, and charge motorists directly for new limited-access highway lanes through electronic tolls.
- Institutionalize and extend the Governor's DOT reforms by reforming the highway formulas and apply them only at the legislated geographic level. In addition, increase competitive contracting, reduce and streamline DOT offices, and make the Board of Transportation's policies advisory and reduce its membership to five to seven members.
- End the disproportionate funding of mass transit. Transportation funding should be based on the way people actually travel, not on transit planners' attempts to use transit to reshape cities.
- End state funding of rail systems in the Triangle and Triad, and repeal the half-cent local-option sales tax authorization for rail transit. (See section on Urban Rail Transit)

Last minute walk in for a chest X-ray and PTT test for pre-op and they took me in quickly and assisted with all concerns and questions.
Fast, clean, secure, excellent patient care. Dr. Enriquez was the best! Thank you!
The palm beach lake office is one of the location that I went to, from the receptionist to back office; the staffs are very nice and compassion. The doctor was very precise with my diagnosis, and I received a follow up call to see if meds are working. The best location to go to
very impressed with the facility
It is never fun being sick, but being sick while traveling and not near your own doctor can make things more stressful. I was so pleased with MD Urgent Care in Pembroke Pines. The office is large and when I arrived at 8:30 the sign in was prompt and everyone very professional. From the receptiontist, nurse, and doctor I was highly impressed with out they treat their patients. I would highly recommend this location!

Specialist flats designed to boost older peoples' independence are being proposed in green belt land in an Essex Village. 40 flats, along with communal areas such as a lounge, gym, café and cinema, are being proposed in the village of Bowers Gifford, Basildon, by AMS care.
An application for the development, which would be build alongside Gifford House care home, was validated by Basildon Borough Council on February 20. According to a design and access statement setting out the plans, the proposed site is currently unused open space which has been "left to nature" and was not intended to provide amenities to current residents in Gifford House. A section read: "This is to include a range of flat sizes and types designed to maximise independence within a safe environment."
The proposed flats would have between one and two bedrooms, the statement continues. A lounge, café, gym and a multi-purpose room which can be used as a cinema are also being proposed for the future residents to use. 28 car parking spaces, enough for 70 per cent of the occupants, would be constructed if councillors approve the application. Additionally, an indoor storage and charging area for mobility scooters is also part of the plans. Residents would be able to enjoy a west-facing courtyard garden and a south west facing amenity area.

However, the site is in the local green belt, which may prove to be a constraint in a receiving planning permission from the council. According to the statement, Bowers Gifford and North Benfleet Parish Council met over the plans in December last year, and had "positive" discussions including over the development's proposed location.
But questions were raised over access to the site, alternative transport methods, electric car charging, sustainability, affordability, the orientation of the flats and daylight levels. Gifford House currently provides care and accommodation for frail older people, along with specialist nursing, palliative and dementia care. The application is for full permission, rather than being split into outline and reserved matters stages. The council is expected to make a decision on approval later this year.

The bodies of the victims lay scattered around the house.
Unnamed police officials told AP news agency that witnesses had counted at least 15 attackers.
"The men drove up in four SUVs, they were well-armed. They went into the house and shot at everyone, you could hear the gunfire all around," said a neighbour at the scene, quoted by Reuters news agency.
Ciudad Juarez, straddling a highly lucrative drug-smuggling route into the US, is the scene of a vicious ongoing turf war between rival cartels.
At least 15 other people died in the city, on the US border, at the weekend.
Most of the dead were teenagers or young adults
Some 45,000 troops and extra police have been deployed to crack down on the gangs in Mexico, including some 10,000 in Ciudad Juarez, which lies across the border from El Paso, Texas.
But the campaign has done little to curb the bloodletting - more than 7,000 people reportedly died in Mexican drug-related violence last year.
Beheadings, attacks on police, and shootings in clubs and restaurants are a daily occurrence in some regions.
In two of the worst attacks in 2009, gunmen stormed drug rehabilitation clinics in September, killing nearly 30 people.

LICENSED PROFESSIONAL COUNSELOR
My goal in life has always been to help those who are suffering heal from their pain and find hope. My journey began when I worked as an Emergency Medical Technician on an advanced life support ambulance in 1995 and served my community as an EMT for six years. While answering 911 calls, I discovered people needed patience, kindness, and understanding during their crisis and witnessed people suffering with mental illness not get the help they deserved. I changed my career to helping those struggling with mental health issues and obtained my Bachelors in Psychology and a Masters in Counseling Psychology from California Baptist University.
Along with my medical experience, I began specializing in eating disorders in 2001. I have worked at all levels of care including inpatient, residential, day treatment, and intensive outpatient to better understand what people go through at different levels of treatment. My passion for helping those heal from eating disorders has continued for over 19 years and my motivation comes from seeing those find freedom from their pain and enjoy life again free from their eating disorder. It takes an active listener and being present with your clients to really be able to understand their story and know how to help them.
When I am not working I am enjoying time with my family in Oregon and California either at the beach, kayaking, hiking with my two dogs, or doing crafts and decorating at home.
Lizette DuBay Courtney
REGISTERED DIETITIAN NUTRITIONIST
I have a passion for helping clients establish a satisfying relationship with food and eating. I choose a client-centered approach, considering each client’s unique set of circumstances to develop a plan specific for meeting their nutrition goals. In our current complex food environment full of confusing and contradicting messages, I focus on evidence-based approaches to address specific issues around food and eating.
My practice focus is in the treatment of eating disorders and in the correction of disordered or maladaptive eating behaviors across the spectrum, working with children as young as 10, adolescents and adults. Beyond nutrition therapy and counseling, I seek to empower my clients and their support partners to improve confidence in themselves to know what, when and how much to eat. In working with me my clients not only receive education, instruction, skills building, and support but they also have an opportunity for practical experiences. I eat with my clients. I shop with my clients. I meet my clients at restaurants for food challenges. I offer coached family meals.
I have practiced as a registered dietitian for 8 years and have specialized in the treatment of eating disorders for 7 of those years, having received specific training, education, and supervision to increase my effectiveness in serving this population. I access a variety of tools and techniques to address the needs of the individual including Intuitive Eating Principles, principles of family-based treatment, principles of Satter Eating/Feeding Competence, principles of Motivational Interviewing. I am a Certified Intuitive Eating Counselor® and I am a candidate for certification in the treatment of eating disorders for registered dietitians (CEDRD) through the International Association of Eating Disorder Professionals.
I started with The Oasis Center in September 2017 after leaving a 16-year career in the investment industry. In 2013, I moved with my husband and daughter to Oregon from Southern California, where I was raised and started my family. Soon after arriving I met Robyn and her passion for the community has been contagious. My role is primarily administrative, but I see this opportunity to use my skills to serve this wonderful community as a blessing and a new adventure. In my free time, I enjoy spending time with my family, my church, and my two Boston terriers.

President Obama on Monday convened the White House Summit on Working Families. For all the coverage of debt ceilings and international diplomacy lately, today’s summit is a breath of fresh air.
Believe it or not, the United States is the only developed country in the world which does not offer paid family leave.
How does this affect everyday families?
In the US, federal law protects the job position of a parent who takes family leave for the birth or adoption of a child, or other family leave, but does not require pay. Imagine how this lost income affects a family.
What happens if you need to attend your child’s school play or a parent-teacher conference, or your child gets sick and you have to stay home? You risk not being paid.
The time has come for the United States to step up to the plate. Businesses claim this will hurt their bottom line and work will not get done. Companies like Google, who have already enacted some of these practices — Google offers five months of paid maternity and paternity leave — have seen the rate of women leaving the company decreased by half, according to the White House.
President Obama said, “For companies who are offering paid family leave, who are offering flexibility, their workers are more productive, more loyal,” he said. “There’s lower turnover and ultimately, they’re going to be more profitable.”
While paternity leave looks like a “perk” or “free vacation” for new dads, according to Liza Mundy in The Atlantic, “the true beneficiaries of paternity leave are women.”
When women and men share parental responsibilities and develop balanced habits from the beginning of the child’s life, the women feel more comfortable returning to the workplace, if they so desire. A stronger workforce means better pay for women and commitment to the employer, which in turn lowers turnover and the associated costs.
Mundy says, “the genius of paternity leave is that it shapes domestic and parenting habits as they are forming.”
We need to shift paternity leave from a “perk” to an expectation: if we do not spend these early days with our young kids, we will forever lose these moments. When Malia was born, President Obama shared with CNN, “I was lucky enough that my schedule allowed me to take that first month off. And staying up until 2 in the morning and feeding her and burping her creates a bond that is irreplaceable.”
Provisions for all types of family leave also allow single parents to support their kids’ school efforts by providing time to meet with teachers and attend concerts or assemblies. Parent involvement is a big deal, and we need to support this, too.
In an earlier day when women were discouraged from the workplace and expected to care for home, children and family, the current laws would have made sense. My grandfather dropped my grandmother off at the hospital for the birth of my aunt and went back the next day to meet the baby.
The times are different. Many dads are engaged, and many more want to have more flexibility to be involved to a greater degree. With the right support, they will feel valued and respected in the workplace for taking care of family at home.
Let’s take first steps. Men, no matter when you take time, investing in the early days of your child will be important. When my daughter was born, I had stockpiled vacation and sick leave and spent three weeks at home, like the President, helping with mid-night diaper changes and bonding with my daughter. With our second daughter due in October, I envision a more flexible arrangement, because I work for a small nonprofit and don’t have stockpiled vacation time to use.
Consider taking some time when your child is born, then more time a month or two later, or coinciding with the time when your partner returns to work. Also look into teleworking for a portion of your time off. Flexibility is the key as the new baby and new parents learn patterns, but getting some work in from time to time does not defeat the purpose of leave. Communicate all of your expectations clearly, and your co-workers will know what is coming and when to expect a response to any work-related communications.
Most importantly, dads, know your stuff: the more you know about the benefits of paternity leave on your family — and the company’s benefit of a dedicated workforce — the better you will be able to set the record straight. You will also need to be armed with this knowledge when someone commends you for being “such an amazing father!” as Rikki Rogers wrote at The Muse. Dads are sometimes held in high regard for being involved, when these dads view their involvement as doing the right thing.
At First Things First of Greater Richmond, we are dedicated to strengthening the family for a better community. I believe our community and our families will be strengthened by raising the profile of today’s Summit on Working Families.
How will you be involved in conversations such as these?

Missing Persons Unit Missouri (http://www.mshp.dps.mo.gov/CJ51/index.jsp)
The Missouri State Highway Patrol recognizes the importance of providing assistance to the families of missing individuals. In 1985, the Missouri General Assembly signed into law state statute 43.402, which established the Missing Persons Unit within the Highway Patrol. Since that date, the Missing Persons Unit has served as the clearinghouse for the State of Missouri, and is an investigative unit within the Patrol's Division of Drug and Crime Control in Jefferson City. This unit provides technical and investigative assistance to law enforcement agencies, and serves as a point of contact for citizens and family members of missing individuals.
Through the Missing Persons Unit, information is compiled, exchanged and disseminated with the goal of helping to locate missing individuals. In addition to providing investigative assistance, the Missing Persons Unit also hosts public safety programs, law enforcement training and statistical analysis as requested. Some of the services provided by the Missing Persons Unit include:

The SyFy channel has ordered 11 episodes for Alphas – a series about “a team of ordinary citizens whose brain anomalies imbue them with extraordinary mental and physical abilities” according to the Hollywood Reporter. In addition, a 90 minute pilot episode has been ordered.
According to the SyFy blog, Blastr, Alphas is described as the following from an older press release:
Alphas follows a team of ordinary citizens whose brain anomalies imbue them with extraordinary mental and physical abilities. Taking the law into their own hands, the unlikely team, led by Dr. Lee Rosen (David Strathairn) investigates cases that suggest other Alpha activity to uncover what the CIA, FBI and Pentagon have not been able or willing to solve. These gifted individuals must balance their quirky personalities and disparate backgrounds with their not always visible powers as they work to solve crimes, stop the ticking time bomb and catch the enemy.
Alphas is being directed by Jack Bender who previously directed the smash hit series Lost and stars David Strathairn (Good Night and Good Luck) Warren Christie, Malik Yoba, Laura Mennell, Ryan Cartwright and Azita Ghanizada. Callum Keith Rennie, from the SyFY show Battlestar Galactica, is said to guest star in the pilot episode.
The show is being written by Zak Penn known for X-Men: The Last Stand, The Avengers, The Incredible Hulk and also Michael Karnow.
Look for Alphas to debut next summer.

Our consultants and their teams have contributed substantially to improvements in cancer outcomes over the past 25 years.We are greatly encouraged that over 50% of UK cancer patients now survive their disease for 10 years or more.We are at a time not only of unprecedented acceleration of knowledge with regard to all aspects of cancer, but also of rapid change in terms of patient management and new therapies.To deliver better outcomes for patients, we must overcome challenges over the next decade, such as increased demand for cancer services and financial constraint in the NHS.The first version of the ACP strategy was published on 13 July 2015.
This second version is prepared as an update to reflect the publication of the Report of the Independent Cancer Taskforce entitled ‘Achieving World-Class Cancer Outcomes. We have also responded in this strategy to helpful meetings with the President and the Senior Officers of the Royal College of Physicians.
These inputs, arising soon after the initial publication of our strategy, were felt by the ACP Executive to be of sufficient importance to justify bringing forward the annual update of our strategic document.
The independent cancer taskforce (ICT) proposes the following six strategic priorities: • Spearhead a radical upgrade in prevention and public health • Drive a national ambition to achieve earlier diagnosis • Establish patient experience as being on a par with clinical effectiveness and safety • Transform our approach to support people living with and beyond cancer • Make the necessary investments required to deliver a modern high-quality service • Overhaul processes for commissioning, accountability, and provision The ICT sets out its benefits potentially to be an additional 30,000 patients per year surviving cancer for 10 years or more by 2020 of which almost 11,000 will be through earlier diagnosis.
In addition, it is hoped to narrow the gap between England and the best countries in Europe in cancer survival, increasing integration of health and social care, improve patient information and empowerment, improve patient experience and quality of life, reduce the growth in the number of patients being diagnosed with cancer and reduce the variability of access to optimal diagnosis and treatment and the consequent inequalities in outcome.
This may be associated with significant savings through improving the process and outcomes of patient care which could be re-invested to achieve further improvements in future.
We welcome the prospect of investment in aspects of cancer prevention, early diagnosis, management and the support of patients with cancer throughout their journey that has been identified by the ICT and will lend our support to those who are charged with arguing the case for this with Government.
