Lancers outlast Scotties
Neshannock (58) Vs. Union (54)
By DAN IRWIN
This time, Union was ready for Bobby Nittinger.
The Neshannock High senior had poured in 37 points last month to lift Neshannock over the Scotties in the two teams’ first WPIAL Section 1-A matchup.
In last night’s rematch at Union, the Scotties limited Nittinger — who was averaging 19.9 ppg. — to just nine markers. Led by senior Joey Fontana, though, the remaining Lancers’ put together a balanced attack that helped Neshannock post a 58-54 triumph.
The win preserved the Lancers’ hopes of getting at least a share of the section crown. Neshannock (5-1, 14-6) plays host to Monaca (1-6, 4-15) at 5:30 p.m. today, then travels to league-leading Lincoln Park (7-0, 14-6) for the season finale at 7:30 p.m. Monday.
Fontana keyed the Lancers last night with 13 points, including a pair of free throws with 15 seconds left that put Neshannock up by five, virtually sealing the win.
John Sansone contributed 12 points, while C.J. VanEman, Brandon Marinelli and Eric Bruening all had eight.
Although he stands four inches shorter than the 6-foot-4 Nittinger, Union’s Devonta Thomas was assigned to serve as his shadow — and did a yeoman’s job.
“They were guarding Bob (Nittinger) pretty tight so someone had to step up,” Fontana said. “We all did.”
That didn’t surprise head coach John Corey.
“We knew they were going to come out and try to deny Bobby the basketball,” he said. “As a staff we’ve emphasized that we have six good basketball players, and if they’re going to take out Bobby or they’re going to take out John Sansone, then the rest of them have to step up and be very aggressive.”
For the Lancers, the hot hand was like a hot potato that got tossed around all night.
Sansone, for instance, hit back-to-back treys in the second period to snap a 20-all tie, then opened the third quarter with a steal and a layup to give Neshannock a four-point advantage.
With the Scotties (3-4, 13-5) holding a 43-42 lead going into the final frame, VanEman scored six points in a 12-2 run that put the Lancers ahead to stay at 54-45.
And after Devonta Thomas drove the hoop to cut the deficit to 55-52 with 21 seconds remaining, Fontana stepped to the free throw line six ticks later and drained two clutch foul shots.
Not bad for a guy who’d gone just 1 of 9 from the stripe up until that point.
“I forgot about the last ones,” Fontana said. “I just had to knock those down. I wasn’t even thinking about the other ones.”
Sansone sank one more free throw with seven seconds remaining and Anthony Thomas, Devonta’s brother, added a slam at the buzzer to round out the scoring.
Speaking of Thomas, he — like Nittinger — also was held to a season-low, scoring just 14 points after entering the game with a 27.6 ppg. average.
Also like Nittinger, Thomas’ teammates took up the slack. Damian Trott contributed 13 points, Nate Major had 12 and Devonta Thomas came up with 10.
The Scotties, though, battled shooting woes throughout the night, sinking just 23 of 70 shots from the field for 32.9 percent. With the game on the line in the fourth quarter, the problem only intensified, with Union going 5 of 25.
Afterward, Union head coach Dave Smialowski declined to comment.
Neshannock didn’t shoot particulary well, either, with a 10-of-23 night from the line and a 22-of-60 performances (36.7 percent) from the field. However, the Lancers helped offset that with a strong effort on the boards. Unofficially, they outrebounded Union 55-46, with Bruening snaring 15 caroms and Fontana nabbing 11.
“I told our guys that (rebounding) was a key to the game,” Corey said. “We look to attack the rim. We didn’t shoot as well as we wanted, but neither did they.
“It just came down to those other little things that pull out the W.”

|The Death of Gabriel Fernandez Inspires Effort To Honor Him|
|Written by Diana Martinez|
|Thursday, 12 September 2013 06:12|

The Palmdale City Council voted unanimously to approve the dedication and renovation for a new Neighborhood House and named it "Gabriel's House," in memory of eight-year-old Gabriel Fernandez who was abused and tragically killed. At least 75 volunteers participated in a weekend work day to prepare the house to serve as a non profit e as a music and performing arts center. The house is under the jurisdiction of the City of Palmdale and the Housing Division of the Economic Development Department to improve homes in moderate to low income neighborhoods.
Since the heinous death of 8-year old Gabriel Fernandez, who was repeatedly tortured and died at the hands of his mother, Pearl Fernandez, and her boyfriend, Isauro Aguirre, there has much discussion and at times debate, about an appropriate way to memorialize him.
In May, Gabriel Fernandez was discovered unconscious with a skull fracture, several broken ribs, cigarette burns and abrasions around his ankles that indicated he may have been tied up. He later died from the severe injuries.
Pearl Fernandez, 29, and Aguirre, 32, were arrested and charged with capital murder with special circumstance of torture. The pair, in county jail without bail, has yet to enter a plea; their arraignment has been delayed twice and is now scheduled for Oct. 7.
One mother, Daisy Bronx, organized protests with many other concerned parents. They stood outside of the county Department of Family and Children's Services (DFCS) offices in Palmdale and Los Angeles to demand that changes be made.

Bronx maintains that the best way to honor Gabriel was to demonstrate and expose the complacent history at DFCS. She started a website, "Gabriel's Fight" to keep people connected and informed about the protests and the case.
The protestors have attended Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors meetings and asked why the DFCS failed to act and remove Fernandez from his mother's home, despite several reports made by his teacher who saw evidence of abuse including black eyes, cuts and bruises.
When she asked Gabriel about the injuries to his face, the teacher reported that the boy had told her that his mother shot him in the face with a bb gun.
The child's death and reports of the extreme injuries suffered by the young boy documented in autopsy reports, placed a critical spotlight on the DFCS, and pressure on the Board of Supervisors to take action against the agency which it oversees. Last month some of the social workers involved in the boy's case were fired.
Gabriel's House In Palmdale
Last weekend, about 75 volunteers gathered to renovate a house into an art center. They have named it "Gabriel's House." Emily Carranza, Gabriel's cousin, traveled from Sylmar to Palmdale to be part of the effort. The Fernandez family lived in Pacoima and Mission Hills before moving to Palmdale.
"I am working on an image of Gabriel that can be placed in the house," said Carranza, who considers the volunteer's efforts to transforming the house as a "positive action" in memory of Gabriel.
"This will be a safe place for children," Carranza said. "It will be a place to learn music, dance and learn art. All of the volunteers worked hard and they did so much very quickly. The house will be open next month and will be a brand new place."
"We have a large number of volunteers that want to make a difference," said Palmdale Mayor Jim Ledford of the dozens of people who helped out. "It's a tragedy what we've experienced, so here is a very positive opportunity to come together and do something significant to set the stage for even more great things in the future."
The house will be powered completely through volunteer efforts and run by The Art Branch Foundation, a nonprofit organization. Founder Jimmy Lu said programs will feature all the major aspects of art, in addition to dance and music, they will offer acting, drawing, film, and photography for area kids. Instruction will be provided for free and kids can sign up for classes at the location of Gabriel's House, located 38533 East Fourth Street in Palmdale, or by registering at www.TheArt- Branch.org. The organization will also accept donations for Gabriel's House.
The Gabriel Fernandez Child Abuse and Neglect Fund
Carranza, through the website "Gabriel's Justice" she first established with a concerned friend, said a fund has been established through Children's Hospital Los Angeles.
Money previously raised through the website will go into the fund and they are encouraging additional donations to be routed to the hospital.
"Friends and family can donate to the fund by visiting our web page at www.chla.org/donate now. Once in the page, donors can specify the Gabriel Fernandez Child Abuse and Neglect Fund," she said.
Carranza selected Children's Hospital as a place to receive donations because she said they tried to save Gabriel's life. One of the doctors who was a "first responder" was very affected by Gabriel's case, and helped to establish the fund at the hospital.
"The fund will help provide services to children who come in with abuse or suspicion of abuse and will help to provide care and education," website information stated.
Plans for A Scholarship
In addition, there are additional efforts currently underway to establish a scholarship for a college student in the name of Gabriel Fernandez. One of those efforts is being led by San Fernando City Councilmember Sylvia Ballin, who also serves as treasurer of the statewide Latino Water Coalition.
Ballin said she will be meeting with CSUN officials to discuss awarding a Gabriel Fernandez scholarship to a student who is interested in going into a field related to serving children.

The Amihan National Federation of Peasant Women and rice watch group Bantay Bigas assailed Department of Agriculture Secretary William Dar’s statement denying that the farmers lost Php68 billion a year after the implementation of RA 11203 or the Rice Liberalization Law.
“Secretary Dar’s statement is inconsiderate and insensitive to the family of rice farmers who have suffered from bankruptcy, indebtedness, hunger and distress due to the damage of rice liberalization to their livelihoods. He has proven that he is nothing but an apologist of a failed neoliberal policy wrecking havoc not only in the local rice industry but in the entire agriculture sector,” Amihan secretary general and Bantay Bigas spokesperson Cathy Estavillo said.
“It is even more infuriating that instead of sincerely providing measures to address the impact of the law and assess its effectiveness, Secretary Dar has been defending these palliative measures as if farmers are telling lies about the losses they incurred,” Estavillo added.
Bantay Bigas has released an earlier statement that farmers have lost P74.8 billion due to depressed farmgate prices. Farmers from Central Luzon have suffered a loss of at least P25,000 per hectare last year as palay prices dropped to P7 per kilo during the peak of the harvest season. In Cagayan, farmers suffered more than P11,300 losses per hectare while Masipag Mindanao reported 75-85% loss on farmers’ net income.
Estavillo said “Secretary Dar should review his computations since the measures provided by the government could only benefit a few farmers and most of the programs like the machinery and farm equipment were not even felt by the farmers.”
Estavillo noted that the P2.5 billion released under SURE Aid as well as the P1 billion in the P10 billion Rice Competitiveness Enhancement Fund are loan assistance which farmers have to pay despite continuing bankruptcy and indebtedness.
She added that current palay prices remain low with P10 per kilo in Cagayan and P12 per kilo in Bicol and Capiz. Retail rice prices remain unaffordable for majority of poor Filipinos with prices ranging from P34 to P50 per kilo.
“We reiterate our demand for the repeal of RA 11203 and the enactment of House Bill 477 Rice Industry Development Act (RIDA) as an alternative bill. The Duterte government should wake up from the illusion that agricultural liberalization would do good for our farmers and the agriculture sector. There is no better solution in the attainment of food security but developing the local rice industry and agriculture to ensure self-reliance and self-sufficiency,” Estavillo ended. ###

You know something that others don’t know. You have acquired that knowledge with your experience and studying others rigorously, taking your share of failures and setbacks. And when it comes to fully implementing that knowledge, you think that what you can see, everyone else also can see the same thing.
Not exactly. Because they didn’t have the same experience, they haven’t acquired that knowledge, they haven’t failed as you have, and they don’t see clearly what you see now.
Sometimes, we underestimate our own knowledge and underpin ourselves. Instead, accept that you are empowered with the knowledge and experience and ready to use it to the fullest. Don’t hide behind the lie of you not knowing enough. Kill the fear and be courageous to take your destiny to the next level.
Be accountable for your life. Challenges would come, but they are there even if you don’t do anything. At least the challenge would be towards the growth.
Accept that you are unique. It’s that easy.

As December arrives, so has the City of Binghamton’s annual winter alternate side parking guidelines.
From Dec. 1, 2022 to March 15, 2023, Binghamton residents must adhere to the city’s alternate side parking guidelines to allow for efficient snow plowing. According to the City of Binghamton’s alternate side parking mandate, residents must park on the even side of the street on even calendar days and park on the odd side of the street on odd calendar days until 5 p.m. — even and odd side parking is indicated by the even and odd numbering of houses.
These rules are enforced for all city streets, including streets that only allow parking on one side — except for areas that are exempt from alternate side parking rules.
Binghamton Mayor Jared Kraham highlighted the importance of these guidelines, describing how snow plowing would not be possible without them in place.
“We have densely populated streets in Binghamton and where there are cars parked on both sides of the street — it does not allow the snow plows to move efficiently through the city,” Kraham said. “There is less of a chance that they will get the entire street plowed and on many of the very tight streets that we have in the city, sometimes when there are cars parked on both sides it’s not possible to move a plow through the city.”
Kraham also said the city is “very vigilant to ticketing for the alternate side parking,” describing it as a “snow emergency.” Kraham explained that the main goal of these parking guidelines is to keep the residents of Binghamton safe during snow storms.
Residents and students must work together to follow the alternate side parking guidelines to help the city run efficiently, according to Kraham.
“This is a really small effort — it’s a small gesture that students can do, that residents of the city can do,” Kraham said. “And [they can] really work together to ensure that there is at least room for these plows to go through.”
Sarrah Aliewie, a senior majoring in biomedical engineering who lives off-campus, expressed a negative opinion on the alternate side parking guidelines.
“I live off-campus, and alternate side parking can be inconvenient at times, especially if you have to commute to class,” Aliewie said.
Kraham acknowledged that the parking rules are unfavorable for students living off campus, but emphasized that it is important to remember that public safety is a top priority.
The alternate side parking rules are currently in place for the next four months. Kraham explained that there have been discussions about pushing the official end date of the guidelines to April 1, 2023, to ensure that residents are not affected by late snow storms. However, no decisions have been made regarding the implementation of this extension.
“It’s also a safety thing — we don’t want these plows having to navigate through narrow passages,” Kraham said. “We don’t want cars to get hit — we don’t want the plow drivers to be in dangerous situations. The clearer the roads are the better they can do their jobs. These are men and women who show up at the crack of dawn, who work overnight, who are driving these plows to make sure people can get places safely. So we need to support them and let them do their job, and I think we’ve seen really good compliance from students in the past.”
Mia Cicoria-Timm, a sophomore majoring in psychology, said she felt the parking rules are important for safety in Binghamton.
“I think that the alternate side parking rules will create a safer environment in the winter,” Cicoria-Timm said. “The annoyance of moving your car is a small price to pay for safety.”

Parades march on
Published 8:00 am Wednesday, January 11, 2017
In 1977, 40 years ago, T.R. Miller Band was getting ready to travel to New Orleans. They were actually going to compete in the “Greatest Bands in Dixie,” but in addition they would get to march in the Mardi Gras Parade.
It’s been a long time since the local bands performed in big parades. I know that they have been in inaugural parades and T.R. Miller went to Mexico back in the 1950s.
Brenda Harold was chosen by the faculty of W.S. Neal High School to receive the Good Citizenship Award.
Jefferson Davis Junior College signs were going up around town. Six signs had been placed at strategic places to give directions to the school.
It’s hard to believe now, but there was a time before we had access to our local college. It has done much for our youth and our community.
There was an announcement in The Brewton Standard that Silver Commemorative USS Alabama coins had been made and were available at the USS Alabama’s Battleship Park on the causeway in Mobile.
It is hard to believe that it has been so long since the ship was taken out of mothballs and towed to its present home. The distance was the longest one that a ship had ever, at least until that time, been towed. Over the years since then many people, young and old, have climbed around on the ship. It was certainly worth all those small, and large, contributions given by people of Alabama.
For those of you who are interested, there is a good write-up in the newspaper of the time about the community of Foshee.
I can’t help but include some of the items listed on sale all those years ago. Goodyear had an automatic washer priced at $168 and an electric G.E. range for $128. One could also buy and pay by the week.
They had televisions for $2.25 a week, a really fine solid state stereo for $3 a week and other items that the buyer could pay off by the week.

Basic answer...not taking into account axial tilt and sun details etc. Just basic climatology.
500 mile width. On Earth the distance between each degree of latitude is about 69miles. So on Earth, your landmass would average 3.5-4 degrees latitude either side of equator. On your larger planet, it would be less!
Coriolis at the equator
Earth rotates west to east, this rotation causes surface waters and winds to flow east to west.
Coriolis causes surface waters and winds to be deflected to the right in the northern hemisphere and left in the southern.
BUT, at the equator the is little to no deflection. We call it the 'doldrums'. So your coastal water currents will probably be fairly weak (if no other drivers can be found).
As mentioned by Palarran, there will be no complete ocean circulation. On Earth, all our oceans are connected and combines to create the thermohaline circulation. This transfers cold polar water to the equator and beyond and warm equatorial water to the poles. But I don't see why you can't have two separate thermohaline circulation systems.
Your planet has ocean from the poles to pretty much the equator (barring a few degrees). Your cold polar waters will extend alot further inwards than on Earth. Eg in the northern hemisphere the cold oceans are mostly barred by eurasia and north America. In the south, the cold currents have near free reign and have formed a large antarctic circumpolar current.
You will have two of these, North and south. But I believe it may be 'wider'. This will result in larger ice caps affecting air temperatures. The cold water will sink until it hits the ocean surface and then travel underwater towards the equator (you will need some sunken landmass to direct it there). When it reaches the equator it may rise and bring nutrients to the surface. See areas of upwelling on Earth.
Depending on how wide a continental shelf you have, your coastal waters will therefore be colder than expected. Shallow coast, weaker and warmer current; steeper shelf, stronger current influenced by the upwelling cold current.
Such a strong polar ocean current would also result in very little surface mixing with the water in the mid-latitudes. So thinking the problem through, you will have a excessively strong polar current and a very weak equatorial current. You may have a narrow third current between the two. A mid-latitude current. Where the equatorial and polar currents interact. I'd imagine it would be mainly driven by any atmospheric circulation as there will be no landmass to drive or focus the direction.
I don't think it will be similar to Earth's hadley-ferrel-polar cell circulation. If it is, it will be a mutated version.
You will most certainly have a large strong polar cell. The polar cell has subsiding air at the poles and rising air at the polar front. On Earth about 60degrees.
With such a narrow landmass at the equator, you won't have a very strong zone of ascending warming air. Resulting in a weaker and smaller Hadley cell. This means that less warm air is going to be transported up into the upper atmosphere and down to the poles. Your tropics(where all the moisture falls back out if the sky) will also not reach to the 30 degree latitude and probably fall between 10-20 degrees (if that).
Your ferrel cell. This is where a very large amount of uncertainty lies. If it exists... Maybe just an interaction cell. Purely to exist to separate the cold polar air from the warmer equatorial air. It would be more of a buffer zone than an actual atmospheric cell.
I believe you have created a very cold planet. Your polar icecaps will dominant the weather. Most moisture will be locked in the salter than Earth's oceans and poles. The air will be dryer. It will rain alot on your equator landmass, as the rain band is that much narrower than on Earth. There will be strong polar winds. Storm surges onto your landmass probably won't be uncommon. Expect lots of coastal flooding in low-lying areas.

This remarkable fact offers proof for the idea that all life is related and that development is a key factor in evolution. In "Endless Forms Most Beautiful" Sean B. Carroll explains the significance of such discoveries as the genetic "tool kit" (including HOX genes) on our understanding of evolution and of development. Indeed, this is a fascinating story that has already caused me to rethink some of my understanding of evolutionary principles.
We live in an amazing world in an amazing universe. The genetic material made up of DNA is a very remarkable material. What other materials could have developed huge numbers of organisms (as many as 30 million extant) that vary from zebras to sulfur bacteria? Yet that complexity appears to have developed from a very simple beginning.
Carroll was influenced by Steven J.Read more ›
Sean B. Carroll (there's more than one Sean Carroll out there) does a fine job showing how insect and vertebrate forms are built. More than that, he shows how they are fundamentally related WAY back in the past. Even more controversial than humans being related to chimps, we're related to, say..., lobsters!
What's cool is these conclusions are based on repeatable experimental evidence of the makeup of DNA, genes, chromosomes etc. Carroll makes a nice analogy between the vast amount of DNA strands that are NOT expressed in individual forms and the vast amount of matter in the universe that is NOT expressed as visible stars and galaxies. (OK, so maybe I STILL like physics a little more, but I'm making progress!)
Carroll nicely acknowledges Gould's contributions to the popularization of better public understanding of evolution (e.g., Wonderful Life) and further extends the discussion of Darwin. Trying to understand life without evolution is like trying to understand the universe without gravity. But Carroll moves the discussion from anecdotes to evidence. I like that!
I hope to see MUCH more on this new field of evolutionary developmental biology. As much as I am interested in how the universe began (and where it's going), I am interested in how human beings began and where THEY might be going.
Multicellular plants and animals are essentially societies of cells that vary in configuration and complexity. Darwinian evolution shaped these multitudinous forms as a result of small changes in offspring and natural selection of those best adapted to their environment. Variation arises from mutations in genes that control how cells in developing embryos behave. This tight linkage between evolution and development lies at the heart of the questions evo devo, shorthand for evolutionary developmental biology, is attempting to answer. Sean B. Carroll is perfectly positioned to explain evo devo, and his comprehensive understanding illuminates "Endless Forms Most Beautiful" The New Science of Evo Devo and the Making of the Animal Kingdom."
When and where genes are expressed determines how animals develop. The control regions of these genes - switches that change existing patterns of gene activity into new patterns - are crucial and a single gene can have many control regions. This flexibility underlies the fact that 95% of genes coding for proteins are similar in humans and mice. Evolution of control regions has made us human - and different from our primate ancestors.
Drosophila is utilized to explain the basic developmental tool kit shared by all animals. Carroll introduces the master Hox genes and intercellular signaling molecules such as proteins specified by hedgehog genes.Read more ›

Donald Trump Jr. called for the release of a memo that allegedly contains information about Obama administration surveillance abuses and suggested that Democrats are complicit with the media in misleading the public.
"It's the double standard that the people are fed by the Democrats in complicity with the media, that's why neither have any trust from the American people anymore," Trump said on Fox News Friday.
A group of House conservatives raised the alarm about the memo after it was released to them and suggested it contains revelations that the Obama administration used Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act, or FISA, warrants to spy on both the Trump campaign and Trump's transition team.
Obama administration officials have denied spying on the campaign during the 2016 election.
A group of 65 lawmakers wrote a letter Friday that called on House Intelligence Committee Chairman Devin Nunes to release the memo to the public.
"After reading the document, we were shocked and frustrated, but it has deepened our belief in the vital importance of transparency," the letter said.
When asked if he believes the memo could contain information that proves the Obama administration was spying on the Trump campaign, Trump Jr. said that there is "little doubt" in his mind that it wouldn't.
"What I have seen and learned over the last few months borders on disgusting," the president's eldest son said.

How YOU transform into your own awareness-based instrument of change or a complex world “problem solver”? How a learning became a practice, which became a process that became a training, which became consultation and a coaching tool which became an awareness-based instrument of change, which you were in the beginning with. This is Self-transformation through self-creation.
Kirsi Mäkinen introduces her key learning of 13 years as a creative wholeness/integral practitioner and how to re-frame your own sense of reality to upgrade your perceptions and existing truths continuously, increase conscious awareness and become an awareness-based instrument of change with integration to work and whole life. Find out how her Self-System Wholeness Approach was born from her own “manipulator tool” and creative spiritual journey.
This presentation is for all those who “want to do it themselves and create something out of nothing” with entrepreneur spirit and passion for teaching and learning.


VMware announced Tuesday that it is acquiring desktop management specialist Wanova, a move that will enhance VMware View's desktop virtualization capabilities. Wanova centralizes the management of end-user desktops, but reverses direction and allows them to be located on distributed end-user devices at runtime.
Wanova's Mirage system streams users' individual desktops from a central server to their devices, where both application logic and the users' displays run using the devices' compute power. In VMware View 5.1, the most common way to run end-user desktops is to execute application logic on a central server and send only display results to the end-user device. With the Wanova approach, Windows PCs and laptops and Apple Macintoshes and iPads remain active compute devices, running applications instead of being reduced to functioning as dumb terminal-like displays.
In addition, Wanova's Mirage can deal with both bare physical and virtual desktops with the same conventions, in the same system. The approach reunites management of end-user computing after virtualization imposed a split between bare metal versus virtual systems.
Phil Montgomery, VMware senior director of product management, said the acquisition will allow VMware "to redefine the virtual desktop infrastructure market" to include management of physical and virtual desktops by one system.
[ VMware rival Citrix Systems' has also turned to acquisition to advance its desktop virtualization capabilities. See Citrix Buys RingCube For Personalized Virtual Desktop Capabilities.]
Wanova, a San Jose, Calif., company, got its name from its founders' expertise in wide area networking and ability to optimize the movement of data over a WAN. The user's desktop image is maintained and stored on a central server. When needed, it streams down the wire to the device and is run there, according said Montgomery.
It also uses a technique known as "layering" to capture and maintain user-added applications. Layering, or keeping each application as a discrete entity, captures those user-added applications in their own layers so that the rest of the desktop, built from golden images and composite desktop templates, is unaffected by them.
Wanova Mirage also includes branch cache capability, a feature that pushes one master desktop image to a branch office; a branch server then loads multiple users' computers.
The Wanova approach treats the central server image of the desktop as a master copy. After an initial download, the end-user device stores a copy of the desktop, with synchronization occurring between the two at the initiation of the central server.
If a user's desktop is corrupted on his own device, it's a simple matter for the central server to replace it with a fresh copy. Montgomery said VMware will be looking to make this approach work across both Windows and Macintosh systems and mobile devices after the acquisition closes. The purchase is expected to be complete by the end of the second quarter; no purchase price was disclosed
Just three weeks ago, VMware announced its latest plans to bring a more sophisticated desktop virtualization system to market. The acquisition underscores its determination to catch up with Citrix Systems, deemed the market leader in the virtual desktop infrastructure space by IDC. In a recent interview, VMware CTO Steve Herrod acknowledged that VMware had been falling behind before the advent of View 5.1.
Montgomery isn't allowed to talk about product plans until after the acquisition. But he said, "It's pretty obvious where we can snap all this in." VMware's View 5.1 doesn't currently have a capacity to deal with physical desktops or stream desktops to devices for execution on the device's own hardware.
"IT teams need to evolve from managing devices towards managing user workspaces and experience across multiple devices. The combination of VMware and Wanova addresses this evolution," said Sebastiano Tevarotto, chairman and CEO of Wanova.
Wanova was founded in 2008 by Ilan Kessler and Issy Ben-Shaul, previously co-founders of Actona Technologies, which acquired by Cisco in 2004 and became the foundation for Cisco Wide Area Application Services.

Exhibition examines East Timor
After Dili Action
By Tom Nicholson
West Space Gallery, 15-19 Anthony St, Melbourne
April 5 to 15
In August, Melbourne-based artist Tom Nicholson travelled to East Timor to work with East Timorese campaigning for independence in the lead-up to the UN ballot. During his stay he performed an action in Dili, using archival material from World War II and drawing on the complex connections between East Timor, Australia and Western colonialism.
His exhibition, After Dili Action, presents a reduced configuration of material from this action. Nicholson describes the logic of his work in terms of contemporary politics and "its reach beyond visibility".
"It is a response to the problem of how to represent suffering respectfully", he says. "I try to indicate histories indirectly using processes of repetition, both with drawing and with inserting historical documents into contemporary circumstances."
After Dili Action is showing at the new address of Melbourne's oldest artist-run gallery, West Space Gallery. The gallery hours are 12-6pm Wednesday to Friday and 11am-5pm on Saturdays.
In May the work will be shown in Sydney at the Ivan Dogherty Gallery, at the University of NSW, Paddington, as part of Critical Response, an exhibition of political work from Australia and Asia.

Aluminum foil disc sealing
Automatic Induction Sealing Machine
What is induction cap sealing?
The application of varying safe magnetic field to produce enough heat in a thin layer of aluminum foil disc so as to seal the neck of a plastic or glass made container.
Automatic Induction sealing machine is an on-line automatically operated sealer equipped with multi setting knobs, a regulating electronic circuitry adjusts the power against any change of ambient temperature.
This series is to be considered when you have a high production line which can seal up to 5000 foil/hour depends on the speed of the conveyor belt and machine size .it starts from 25mm/min up to 35mm/min with basic diameters from 75cm.
What Makes It Better Than Other Sealers?
- Equipped with a buzzer sound deriving its power directly from induction current, to give a true validity seal process complete.
- Perfect air cooling system including the induction coil.
- The coil core is of ferrite type than concentrates the field toward the foil.
- Due to the above, seal time can be as low as one second with no rest time in between, and number of seals could reach up to 30/minute limited by operators speed and container type.
How Does It Operates?
- Power source 50/60HZ 220V depending on size 10-20A @ 2KW-4KW
- Adjust the cap to be at the center of induction head.
- Adjust the height of head until a 4-6mm clearance exists between cap and head.
- Apply try and error to set time and power of optimum results.
- press start, wait until buzzer sound stop, put another container and repeat.

HUNGRY rugby fans preparing to stomach Wales’ Grand Slam showdown with France tomorrow may have met their match – with a Cardiff cafe claiming to serve “the UK’s biggest breakfast”.
Ramon’s cafe, on Salisbury Road, Cathays, boasts that its new “mammoth breakfast” is the biggest on offer anywhere in the British Isles.
And when I went to try it for the Echo yesterday, I became the latest person to be beaten by the monster meal.
The £17 breakfast includes eight sausages, eight rashers of bacon, six eggs and four beefburgers, as well as hash browns, black pudding, beans, tomatoes, mushrooms, fried potatoes, omelettes, toast and four slices of buttered bread.
The enormous ensemble is washed down with a steaming mug of tea or coffee, as well as a pint of orange juice.
Gareth Badman, managing director of Ramon’s, said the meal was so huge that cafe staff hadn’t yet found been able to find a plate big enough to fit the entire breakfast on.
He told the Echo: “We don’t expect many people to try it as it’s a huge breakfast but it gets talked about.”
The whole meal works out at an eye-watering 8,116 calories – more than triple the recommended daily intake for men, and four times the suggested intake for women.
A typical fry-up featuring two sausages, two rashers of bacon, an egg, two pieces of black pudding, tomatoes, mushrooms and toast contains about 850 calories – just a tenth of the belly-busting serving at Ramon’s.
The recommended daily calorie intake for a person dragging a fully-laden sledge to the South Pole is between 6,000 and 8,000.
According to the United Nations people living in the United States have the highest calorie consumption per capita, averaging 3,830 calories per day.
Mr Badman, who launched the monster meal late last month following a national newspaper article showing a man eating what purported to be Britain’s biggest breakfast, said nobody had yet succeeded in clearing the plate.
“One person tried to do it as a challenge and left a fair bit – about five bits of bacon, two pieces of black pudding, a couple of sausages and eggs.
“Four people came in and shared it and they couldn’t complete it.”
Anyone attempting to complete the challenge has just 30 minutes to scoff the lot on their own – and will earn their money back as well as getting their picture put on the wall.
“I wouldn’t expect anyone to do it but someone can always surprise you,” Mr Badman added.
As I attempted to take on the mammoth meal at Ramon’s yesterday morning, punters turned to watch as the highly-stacked plates arrived from the kitchen.
When five separate dishes arrived in front of me, I knew my chances were slim at best.
I gamely attacked the sausages and bacon, throwing in an early egg and a burger for good measure.
But after 20 minutes – with the clock already heavily against me – I could barely see any of the plate. Even with five hash browns out of the way all I was doing was finding more food underneath.
I dispatched the beans and tomatoes along with a bonus sixth piece of black pudding, but began to realise the dream of becoming a champion eater was fading.
The psychological challenge was even greater than the physical one, with the monotony of constant eating taking its toll after about 45 minutes.
Even after three-quarters of an hour I felt like I had barely made a dent in the “UK’s biggest” breakfast offering.
“Don’t worry,” Mr Badman said. “We do doggie bags.”

COLUMBIA, S.C. — The Richland County Sheriff's Department has arrested the owner of a local scrap yard on claims he violated a new law.
The sheriff's department reports that the owner of American Scrap Iron and Metal located at 7716 Fairfield Road was charged for failing to collect, retain or show ownership documentation of 47 catalytic converted purchased throughout the month of June.
Sheriff Leon Lott said that he hopes the arrest "sends a strong message" to those who refuse to follow the new catalytic converter law.
Catalytic converters are designed to burn excess gas in the exhaust to reduce emissions. However, they are often the target of theft from cars due to the valuable platinum they contain.
South Carolina's new law now requires that a business keep records and receipts including the vehicle identification number of cars from which catalytic converters are removed.
"Without places that illegally purchase converters, the thieves would not have a source to sell them," the sheriff said. "The recyclers helped get the law passed and the legitimate ones follow the law."
However, Sheriff Lott said that this location didn't do so and "will be dealt with accordingly."
The owner now faces 47 counts of unlawful purchase of nonferrous metals and has been booked into the Alvin S. Glen Detention Center in Richland County.

This interview has been edited for clarity and pace.
On Thursday, October 6th, I had the pleasure of interviewing Sara Niemietz in preparation of her new album Superman, which comes out later this month, on the 28th. We talk about the album, inspirations, and some of her favourite things.
Jade Dempsey: What is it about Superman?
Sara Niemietz: I wish I had a cooler story, like female empowerment, which is always there. But I’ve just got to say it rhymed really well with the song I was writing. But I mean it is about empowerment and how just your everyday person can really feel like a superhero.
When did you know the name of the album?
We toyed, my collaborator Linda and I, with a couple other songs on there, but we just kept on coming back to Superman. Then after consulting with some legal, to see if we could actually name the album Superman. We just went for it, it felt so right to call the album that.
The first version of “Superman” (song) is a 10 minute long video you uploaded to Youtube. What was the inspiration behind it?
It was the middle of lockdown and I’ve always been pretty obsessed with space, and science, and superheroes, and just anything to do with blasting off to another planet. And especially since we were all locked in our houses at that time, it was really kinda a fun way to transport to another place. I was using a lot green screen at that time, and I just wanted to kinda do something grand, that took me out of being inside the house. At that point it kinda morphed into the “Superman” song at the end of it. And when we were working on the album we kinda looked at some of the songs we’d written, and looked at that original “Superman”, which is the super super long one and decided to re-record it in a shorter way for for the album. But yeah, that ten minute space odyssey gave rise to the album, in a way.
This album was born out of some life changes. Can you touch on what those were and how they shaped the album?
Yeah, well, I mean, without going too into depth. There’s everything from dealing with COVID and relationship changes, so there was just kind of a lot going on at that time. Which I think really gives fertile ground to write from.
Do you find it easier to make the personal stuff literal or more metaphorical?
I find myself being a lot more metaphorical with it. I like that it can be still general enough so people can put their own life experiences in it. Kind of interpret it in a way that speaks to them. Some people do a really great job with that super super, hyper confessional style, but I try to keep it a little bit more general.
The songs have a lot of layered sounds. Does that come in the recording process or do you have it in your head when you start writing?
It’s kinda a blend of both, for this album we, Linda and I, put together some really detailed demos. So going into the studio we had an idea of what the specific base parts were, kinda certain sounds we were looking for, and we gave the other musicians demos and charts before time, so they could really get a sense of what we were looking for. There definitely is a magic in the studio, where we wanted to let people be themselves and if they came up with something, let us know and throw it on there. So we definitely had moments where the piano player would say, “oh, let me grab this accordion” or the drummer would come up with this really cool loop of a suitcase and a drum head, so we had plans going in, but wanted to be open minded to what we might discover.
This album seems to have a more experimental vibe to your others, especially in the vocals. Was that something you had in mind in the beginning or did it come once you started recording?
Yeah, we wanted to take more risks with this. And going into this I wanted to make a more experimental rock based album.
The song “Words” gave me some Radiohead vibes.
Oh, awesome. That song kinda came about in a really different way. I just sat down when I was writing in front of my computer, with my guitar, and just started playing and making really weird sounds. I think my neighbours probably thought “something insane is going on up there.” But I just started singing and saying words that weren’t really words, and I sent it to Linda, and she heard some really cool layers, and sounds with it. Then I went back and listened to the vowel sounds and tried to figure out what word does this sound like. So that was definitely the most experimental. When we went into the studio, we told the musician to have fun with it. We really wanted it to be open and then almost like an acid jam kinda thing.
I do find it amusing that the song with the least amount of words is called “Words.”
(laughs) It’s true. We were looking at it ‘cause originally it was called Primordial Yelling, then we were like, that can’t be the name of a song. What do we call it?! What’s it about, and Linda’s like, “how about Words?” and I was like “yeah that’s it, that’s perfect.”
Primordial Yelling should be the next album.
I think it should, I think it should! We weren’t ready yet, but now I think I’m ready to embrace that.
Of course one of the layers was your co-writer and producer, Linda Taylor’s incredible guitar playing. How’d you two come together?
The last gig that I had, it was like two days before everything locked down in L.A and a that time we really didn’t even know what COVID was. People were kinda starting to talk about it at the club. It was a thing in Asia and Europe but we didn’t know if it was going to come here. But of course by that time it already was. We were wondering what was going to happen so this ended up being the last gig. It was for a Broadway composer, Jason Robert Brown, and I was singing on it, and Linda was playing guitar, and I just loved her playing, and we were able to have some moments during the show where we’d just trade bars. I was just so impressed. I’d seen her on Who’s Line is it Anyways. I grew up watching it and was such a fan. So we met there and kinda over email, discussed, maybe let’s try and write something, and see what happens. We started writing singles and that led to us going, “let’s do a full album”. And Superman was born.
She is one hell of a player.
What blew my mind more (than her guitar playing) was her producing and arranging. She’s really really incredible.
So did you only know Linda from Who’s Line Is It Anyways?
I had also seen her at another show for another artist I went to go see in L.A. and I just thought oh, I think that’s Linda Taylor playing up there. I think I’d added her on Facebook or something, but we hadn’t talked and when she turned up at this gig I was so excited and the whole band ate dinner together, so I kinda got to talk to her a little and she was just so cool.
What was the process between you two when you made the album?
Necessitated by the circumstances, we wrote the entire album remotely, so we would just send files back and forth. I would send her ideas and she would take those ideas and put some of hers on top of that, and then send it back to me, then I’d write some more…We just kept sending files back and forth and we never actually worked in the same place, until we went into the studio.
It’s crazy that now you can make an album and not ever be in same room as each other.
Yeah, it’s amazing, and in the past I had only worked with people directly in front of the person. But I just LOVED the remote process because, you know, I kinda learned she and I are both…I can’t speak for her, but is probably the same in that I’m a pretty big introvert, so I come up with better ideas when I’m not sitting right in front of someone and you feel like you’re on the spot to just produce something. And we are kind of able to take it at our own time and follow any idea in a very organic way. It was so effortless.
I know someone who’s in a band with people in the US, and they just play together over the internet, it’s crazy.
(Laughs) It is, it’s pretty unreal, I have a friend, he’s from Canada actually, from Saskatoon, he’s in a vocal band with six other singers and everyone lives in a different country, there’s one from Sweden, one from France…and they basically just meet up to do concerts, but other than that all rehearsals are just remote.
When you think about this record, is there any particular memories or stories that jump out at you?
Ah, I just think of countless hours in front of my computer. Just working on ideas and how quickly time went by. I would kinda just look at the clock and think “oh, wow I’ve been here for four hours.” So it kind like a blur of being in front of a computer and smiling and then going into the studio. We went into the studio for five days in the beginning of January, and I remember it being really cool to work with Linda one on one ‘cause we hadn’t done that much and then also to just be in the studio with other musicians after so long was really special…then of course I got COVID at the session, so then I had to quarantine, but just being able to play with other musicians was really special.
Who are some of your inspirations?
For this one, Brittany Howard was really big inspiration and her work with Alabama Shakes. I love her writing and playing, her energy and vulnerability of that. D’Angelo was another big one, and again Steely Dan. Sister Rosetta Tharpe was another one. Those are a few that come to mind.
Who else are you a fan of? Any new artists?
Andrew Bird I’m a really big fan of, and just kind of his whole trajectory of making weird music that he personally is a fan of then finding there’s an audience. He’s also fellow Chicagoan, so that’s someone I’ve always been a fan of. But I’m a bit of a curmudgeon that lives under a bridge or something. I’ve got my old records and spend so much time listening to artists who are already dead, or quite old.
You’ve been featured on a lot of other peoples work. Is there anyone you’d like to collaborate on one of your songs?
Oh yeah, one of my really good friends from Post Modern Jukebox is a guy named Casey Abrahams. He’s just an amazing writer and musician, multi-instrumentalist, he plays everything. We’ve done a couple singles together and have played live whenever he’s got shows in L.A. He’s definitely someone I’d love to record more with. At one point we even talked about writing a musical…we’ll see if that happens.
Speaking of Post Modern Jukebox. When you perform with them do you, as a singer, get a say in how it’s sung, or is it set beforehand?
It’s pretty cool, it goes differently from singer to singer, but my experience is that I sit down with Scott Bradley who’s kinda the mastermind behind it, and we’ll work on the arrangement together, which I’ve always loved because it lets you have input. It’s not like you just show up and they say “okay stand here, sing this.” You usually get a hand in figuring out the style and the key, so if fits you.
You’ve spent most of you life on stages, be it Broadway or touring. Do you get nervous?
You know it’s funny…When I was younger, like a kid, I was absolutely afraid of nothing…except for rollercoasters. As I get older, I find with performing I’m still not nervous. I do with things that are totally irrelevant, like going up to order a drink at a coffee shop, or something. I’ll just keep repeating my order over and over again, being like “latte, latte, latte.” Then they look at me and say “hi how are you doing?’” and I’m like “LATTE!” So those are more the situations where I find myself getting nervous. But part of performing, that’s the place where I’ve felt most comfortable, it’s kinda my security blanket. Which is probably the reverse of a lot of folks…It’s definitely not like I don’t care, I still want to make it go well, but as soon as I’m there, I feel like I’m home.
Okay, last few questions. Do you have any hobbies?
I do. I read a lot. I’m a massive book worm. So if I’m not on the road or in the studio I’m usually sitting at home reading. Though I just adopted a dog named Auggie, so he and I have been going on adventures now.
Any book recommendations?
Oh my gosh, yes. My first book recommendation is usually The Brothers Karamazov. I’ve been a big Dostoevsky fan for a long time. That’s kinda my go to recommendation.
What was your first concert?
Ooh..first concert went to at four years old, was I went to see B.J. Thomas with my family in Illinois.
Did you enjoy it, and get the whole experience at that age?
I loved it. It’s like something from a movie. He saw me singing in the audience and invited me to come up on stage. So from that moment on my parents would say that every time we went other places I’d ask if I got to go up on that stage too.
You and I had very different experiences. I’m sure Darius Rucker would hate me because mine was Hootie and the Blowfish and I fell asleep.
NOOOO! Oh Hootie was great!
Are there any shows you haven’t been to that are on your bucket list?
Again artist that are much older than me. Tom Waitts is someone I’ve always wanted to see live. I’ve seen recordings of his live stuff and he puts on such a great show, but he really doesn’t tour much anymore. So I’m just going to have to hold my breath and if he goes on tour buy the ticket the minute it goes on sale.
Last question. Superman comes out on the 28th. Do you plan on touring the record?
I really want to. I’m trying to look into different ways to figure it out because I’ve toured with Post Modern Jukebox a lot, and I’ve done tours of my own stuff in Europe. But I’m sure you know, it’s so expensive, so I’m just trying to find a way. Even if I just break even or lose not that much money. It’s just so darn expensive. I’m trying to figure it out, but not quite sure at the moment.
Thank you to Sara. Superman arrives on October 28, 2022. You can hear the first two singles, “Locks” and “I Want You”, right now. You can pre-order the album here.

Planned Hunter Transmission Project route released
Australia, New South Wales: The proposed route of the Hunter Transmission Project from Bayswater to Eraring has been released for public comment.
The New South Wales government has outlined its proposed route for the 115 km Hunter Transmission Project through the Hunter Valley, threading a path through mines, forests and along existing easements for a project essential to pave the way for the shift from coal. The project is designed to deliver at least 5 GW of wind and solar power from the New England and Central-West Orana regions.
The project will take the power from next to the Bayswater coal fired power station in the upper Hunter, to the site of the soon to be shuttered Eraring coal fired generator on the central coast, from where the electricity will be distributed to major load centres in Sydney, Newcastle and Wollongong. The route identified by the state government owned Energy Corporation of NSW (EnergyCo) threads a path for the 500 kV line in an attempt to avoid the sort of pushback that has plagued other transmission projects.
It comes as the NSW government faces pushback from the wind industry over draft planning guidelines, and opposition from some community members led by the federal Coalition and conservative media as the state struggles to keep pace with the rollout of renewables needed to replace coal. The route was adjusted following community feedback, and a proposed corridor for the line was identified. EnergyCo has avoided the town of Singleton, the wine and tourist areas around Polkobin, and villages such as Millfield and Wollombi, to minimise impacts on significant scenic landscapes.

Back in the day - he was part of an outstanding (and personal favorite of ours) production outfit known as Rhythm Plate. Probably best known throughout their tenure for their stunning releases on Winding Road - we were approached by one-half of the now departed duo - Matt Rivem aka GOSHAWK. Needless to say - the music was a perfect match for us and signing them to Kolour LTD was one of the quickest decisions we've ever made. Thus, Kolour LTD #18 and the debut release of GOSHAWK was born. More release info and clips - coming SOON!

Facilitates & Identifies Multiple Temperature Sensors for Real-Time Rapid Temperature Measurement Wirelessly for OEM and Industrial Process Control Applications
This unique measurement system allows for parallel interrogation of several independent passive temperature sensors. Through use of independent frequency bands the sensors maintain unique identification within the system architecture. Additionally, because the sensors are SAW based, they require no power source.
This solution is ideal for applications where providing power and communication to the sensor is restricted (e.g. rotating equipment, high temp/pressure/power environments, restricted access locations, etc.).
With unparalleled mobility, portability, robustness and performance for real-time in-process temperature sensing applications, the TempTrackr??? provides a quick and easy-to-use solution that facilitates providing system integrators and OEMs a platform for customized solutions.
SenGenuity???s TempTrackr??? Multi-Sensor kit includes four passive wireless temperature sensors that are capable of reading temperatures between 0 and 120 degrees C from a maximum interrogation distance of 70 inches.
The wireless sensors are powered by bursts of RF emitted by a wireless interrogator which excite SAW resonators within each sensor.?? A feedback signal conditioned by the temperature is then created by the resonator and fed back electromagnetically to the wireless interrogator using the same antenna set.
???Our TempTrackr??? wireless temperature measurement solution now provides end-customers and system integrators with real-time wireless solutions with batteryless temperature sensors that can be individually identified,??? said Kerem Durdag, director of sales and marketing.
???System designers and integrators requested that we provide them with a cost-effective leading edge solution to determine traceable, location-specific temperature in a very portable and easy-to-install wireless sensing system. They utilize this information to enable content-rich process control decisions.???
The TempTrackr??? can be used with any of SenGenuity???s TFSS433D wireless temperature sensors which use robust and reliable semiconductor technology and are installed in challenging applications.
The TempTrackr??? Multi-Sensor kit includes four passively operated TFSS433D sensors with four dipole antennas for each of the sensors. The system electronics and software is factory configured to recognize and monitor the four sensors individually.
Also included is a wireless interrogator with its own dipole antenna, accompanied with a USB connector to facilitate connectivity to any computer for data visualization and acquisition.
The TempTrackr??? provides a streamlined wireless SAW sensor interrogation solution that requires minimal real estate allowing flexibility for system engineers to add significant value-add to their designs. Additionally, customers can leverage the TempTrackr??? to work with SenGenuity on customized solutions for their particular needs and requirements.

Sarah Siskind’s artistry speaks for itself – an arresting voice; a respected, much-covered songwriter; a frequently-licensed recording artist; an admired, free-spirited, commanding performer.
Her songs have been covered by Alison Krauss, Bon Iver, Wynonna, Randy Travis, and many others. She’s had over 20 songs in the hit TV series “Nashville” including the unofficial theme song “A Life That’s Good.” She is trusted by artists, producers and music supervisors to help them deliver their visions – whether it’s writing to briefs, co-writing for single songs or entire records. She’s had placements in many other shows including “Pretty Little Liars,” “Teen Mom,” and “The Wire.”
No Depression magazine called her “a once-in-a-lifetime kind of artist in her delivery, honesty and songwriting.” Her distinct singing is also heard on recordings by Vince Gill, Paul Brady, Ari Hest and Sarah Jarosz and her musicianship has led to studio collaborations with Bill Frisell and Jerry Douglas. Spin Magazine declared her “an artist you must hear now.”
Siskind’s genre diversity has put her on the road with the likes of Bonnie Raitt, The Swell Season, Mary Chapin Carpenter, Bon Iver and Paul Brady. Time Magazine called her “one of the 5 best voices” at SXSW 2013. She’s appeared regularly on NPR programs including Tiny Desk, World Cafe, All Songs Considered, Song of the Day and Mountain Stage.
“Siskind has been compared to Bonnie Raitt and Brandi Carlile, but in my humble opinion, she’s incomparable” – The Huffington Post
“Sarah Siskind is one of very few songwriters that is a true student of American music.
Her lexicon is incredible and her voice…well, she’s a teacher.” – Bon Iver

British Born Female Caribbean Registered Nurses: Can Group Identity and Occupational Identity be Reconciled?
The past and present for British born Caribbean nurses (BBCN) is one of colonialism, from cultural imposition, the all-powerful British ‘motherland’, to nurses being asked to come over and ‘help’ the new National Health Service in the mid-20th Century to train as nurses. This recognises a ‘power identity nexus’ of white dominance and supremacy (Marsh and Macalpine, 2002, p.8). “Whiteness” propagates a negative and unequal and less powerful ‘other’ assumption of Caribbean women’s gender, ethnic and cultural identity (Mirza and Sheridan, 2003, p. 11-12). This can have a significant bearing on the social and occupational identity of the descendants of these black Caribbean nurses. The BBCN are their daughters and granddaughters born in England.
Using the social identity theory of group interaction by Tajfel and Turner (1979) there is a theoretical space to use nursing as an occupation; professionally and in the clinical environment, to conceptualising the impact that inequality between white nurse as an in-group, that is dominant and one of privilege, in ‘opposition’ to the unequal subordinate group of disadvantage (Powell, et al, p.508) that comes with being a member of the out-group that is the BBCN, considering their ethnicity, culture and gender.
