In the computing language, the term ‘Server’ refers to either a computer program or hardware or a software device that provides functionality or other devices or programmes by responding to the requests made by the network.
A server basically refers to a certain computer system that receives requests from the web and sends this requested information to these clients.
It can broadly be understood as a device which is equipped with and backed by certain specific programs that enable it to offer services to other devices that it shares this network with.
A Web Server mainly refers to server hardware or a software device that stores the web content and is used to host the web sites and produce the same as results when requested by the clients on the World Wide Web.
To store, process and deliver the web pages when requested by the clients is the most prominent and technically the key feature and purpose of a Web Server.
These web servers generally tend to carry one or more websites. The requests sent by the clients over the World Wide Web are generally processed by the Web Server over Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) and the Web Pages are mostly delivered as HTML documents.
Web servers are at the very core of the concept of web hosting. A web server is always connected to the internet and each of these connected servers has a certain unique address.
The hosting providers are able to manage multiple domains on a single server because of the web servers.
Different types of web servers are available in the market for the developers to choose from, depending upon their preferences. The most prominent types of Web Servers available in the market are:
- Apache HTTP Server Web Server
- Internet Information Services (IIS) Web Server
- Lighttpd Web Server
- Sun Java System Web Server
- Jigsaw Server Web Server
- LiteSpeed server Web Server
- Node.js Web Server
Apache HTTP Web Server
Developed by the Apache Software Foundation, the Apache HTTP Web Server is one of the most popular Web Servers.
It is a free and open-source cross-platform web server software that was released under the terms of Apache License 2.0.
The key benefit of the Apache HTTP Web Server is that it tends to support almost all types of operating systems; be it Windows, Linux, Mac OS, Unix, FreeBSD and many more.
It is because of this that approximately around 60% of machines are run on the Apache HTTP Web Server.
Another distinguishing feature of the Apache Web Server is that it allows for a certain degree of customization very easily.
It owes this feature to its modular structure and the fact that it is open-source.
This implies that one has the freedom and scope to add new modules to the server as per his or her convenience and make any required modifications.
Some other noteworthy features of the Apache HTTP Server are:
- It can be easily installed on multiple platforms and function properly.
- Out of all the types of web servers available, the Apache HTTP servers are much more stable and easier in terms of functionality, especially the latest released versions which are capable of handling a distinguishingly greater number of client requests when compared to the other versions.
Internet Information Services Web Server (IIS)
The Internet Information Services Web Server is an extensible Web Server by Microsoft which was created with the Windows NT family.
It is because of this that Microsoft maintains this product and it works with each and every Windows Operating System Platform.
The Internet Information Services Web Server supports the HTTP, HTTP/2, HTTPS, FTP, SMTP, and NNTP but unlike Apache is not open-source.
This makes the process of customization a little complicated and modifications are not that easy.
Lighttpd Web Server
The Lighttpd Web Server is another open-source Web Server. This Web server along with being very flexible and secure is specifically designed and optimized for high performance, speed-critical environments.
Lighttpd gets its name from a portmanteau of ‘light’ and ‘httpd’ and has been nicknamed ‘lighty’. Lighttpd defines itself in terms of security, speed, compliance, and flexibility.
A distinguishing feature of the Lighttpd Web Server is the efficiency that it offers especially in the case of servers suffering from load problems.
Sun Java System Web Server
Sun Microsystems used the brand Sun Java System to market computer software and this brand superseded the Sun ONE.
The Sun Java Web Server can be distinguished as a reliable, easy-to-use and secure web server specifically designed for large or medium sites.
Jigsaw Web Server
The Jigsaw Web Server is an object-oriented, full-functioning Web Server that offers an array of distinguishing features along with an advanced architecture that is written in Java.
The birth of the Jigsaw Web Server was primarily for the purpose of experimentation of new technology and was not intended to be a full-fledged release.
But the later versions of the Web Server took a leap and focused more on the development of better features.
LiteSpeed Web Server
The LiteSpeed Web Server which was released in 2003 became one of the most popular Web Servers in a short span of few years.
It was developed by the privately held LiteSpeed Technologies and was a web server that came with Open Source variants as well.
The LiteSpeed Web Servers are quite compatible with the features of the Apache Web servers since they use similar configurations.
Owing to this feature, the LiteSpeed Web Servers are capable of directly loading the Apache configuration files and can replace all Apache functions.
Node.js Web Server
Some of the prominent features of Node.js Web Server are:
- Even though it is based on the Single-threaded model, the Node.js Web Server is highly scalable which gives it an upper hand over the other traditional Web Servers.
Every client comes with a different set of requirements and it is based on these requirements that the Web Hosting companies decide which Web servers to opt for.

VALATIE–The Kinderhook Town Board has approved updated zoning regulations for solar energy equipment. At the board meeting Monday night, November 13, the board finally adopted the solar amendments after a review that stretched for more than a year and led to one change from the original proposal–removal of language that would have allowed the town Planning Board to use its discretion to waive some requirements.
Also this week the town announced that it has received 77 acres previously owned by the state. The land will be used for recreational purposes.
The board voted three-to-one to approve Local Law #1 of 2017, which updated the zoning laws on solar panels and other solar equipment, including solar farms, on properties in the town. Councilman Paul Voltz voted against the law, saying he supported the wording that was being deleted from one section of the zoning code. Board members Phil Bickerton and Tim Ooms agreed with the removal of the wording. Councilwoman Patsy Leader was not at the meeting. Supervisor Pat Grattan said he would vote for the revised law as a way to complete the changes.
“I would say strike it just to get this done,” he said of the wording.
As originally proposed by the town’s Codes Committee, the deleted revision read: “The Planning Board may, in its discretion, waive or simplify any of the requirements set forth in this section…that the board deems are unnecessary or inappropriate for its review of an application.”
The Codes Committee includes Mr. Ooms, Mr. Voltz, the chairs of the Planning Board and Zoning Board of Apples (ZBA) and the Code Enforcement Officer. They reviewed the updates and sent the document on to the Planning Board and Zoning Board of Appeals for review. Both of those bodies agreed with the changes. The changes were also reviewed by members of the town’s Smart Climate Committee.
The final approval of the changes lies “with the Town Board,” Town Attorney Andy Howard reminded the audience at the November 13 meeting.
Several residents have come to the board since the public hearing on the law in August saying that allowing the Planning Board to waive requirements undercut the regulations.
Resident Ed Simonsen, who was at Monday night’s meeting, said that leaving the wording in would mean “no limits” for the Planning Board. He said of the zoning codes for solar equipment, “99% of it was excellent.”
Bernadette Powis pointed out to the board that there were pages of regulations in this new code for the Planning Board to follow. She said that giving the Planning Board discretion meant, “The Zoning Board of Appeals is left out of this process.”
Mr. Ooms said that the Codes Committee added the wording to help create more opportunity for residents to apply to put up solar panels. But he did not object to striking the wording from the law, saying that if an applicant has an issue the applicant can request changes from the ZBA. “The ZBA works,” he said.
Mr. Voltz said he thought the wording would have “let common sense come in.”
With the motion adopted, the law will be submitted to the state for review before it takes effect. Mr. Howard said that should take a few weeks.
Also at the November 13 board meeting, Supervisor Grattan announced that the town will take ownership of 77 acres behind Volunteer Park on State Farm Road. The land was owned by the state, which is granting it to the town at no cost. The town will have to pay some closing costs on the transfer, according the motion read in part by Mr. Grattan at the meeting.
Mr. Grattan said the land will be used for trails and recreation.
Mr. Ooms pointed out that the driveway into the Volunteer Park, which is a town park, is on the land newly received from the state.
Mr. Grattan thanked the members of the town’s Recreation Committee and the Trail Committee for their work on obtaining the land. “It will be an asset,” he said.
Also at the meeting:
• The board approved hiring a company called Revize to update the town’s website. Former board member Peter Bujanow, who created the bid package to find a company to update the website and reviewed the bidders for the board, said that a contract should be signed soon. After the contract is signed a new town website should be up in nine to twelve weeks, he said. There is an initial cost of about $12,000 and then going forward the annual cost will be $2,200
• Mr. Grattan said that surveying is still being done on Wildflower Road. The survey is being done so that the town can pave the dirt road, at the residents’ expense, and make it town road that the town’s Highway Department will maintain
• After a public hearing, the board approved the franchise agreement with Charter for cable television service
• The board plans to hold a public hearing on the 2018 proposed Town Budget on Monday, November 20 at 6:30 p.m.
The next regular board meeting will be Monday, December 4 at 7 p.m.

An in-depth survey of the Hill of Tara in 2010 uncovered many secrets of the important ancient Irish landmark.
Funded by the Irish Heritage Council, The Discovery Programme (the Centre for Irish Archaeological Research) and the National University of Ireland Galway, used a non-invasive geophysical survey of the land to try and compute why the Hill of Tara had such importance to our Irish ancestors.
The team of scientists was also given permission to survey private land adjacent to the monument. Expert on Tara and lecturer in archaeology at NUIG, Conor Newman said, "there is a commitment to cover as much land as possible with the geophysical survey.
"It is very important people realize that the monument complex of Tara is not restricted to just to the top of the hill and [realize] that there are lots of monuments outside that as well and that the modern hedgerow and roads are just that - modern," Newman told the Irish Examiner in 2010.
Newman has spent 18 years studying Tara and he feels the work will go on there for a long time. "It has the potential to enrich our lives," he believes.
Like many other sites in Ireland, Newman feels the Tara should become a UNESCO World Heritage Site but the complex has previously failed to achieve this recognition.
"I would think it merits that, in terms of its importance nationally and internationally, but I feel quite strongly we ought to be able to look after our cultural landscapes ourselves first and foremost. We shouldn’t have to rely on an international badge to look after our own affairs.
"We need to do the right thing by this and other landscapes. If history has told us anything it is you need consultation, consultation, and more consultation."
The Hill of Tara, located near the River Boyne, is an archaeological complex that runs between Navan and Dunshaughlin in Co Meath, regarded by many as the most important archaeological site in Ireland.
It contains a number of ancient monuments, and, according to tradition, was the seat of Árd Rí na hÉireann, or the High King of Ireland. The core of the Tara complex is a row of monuments scattered along a low ridge about 1.3 miles long, and located a little to the west of the main Dublin-Navan road.
Approaching from the east, one is fooled by a gentle rise to 510 ft above sea level before falling sharply in the west, earning its Irish name "Teamhair," a height from which there is a fine view.
The remains of roughly 30 monuments in total can be seen in Tara today, mainly prehistoric. The monuments come in various forms with Forrad, Tech Cormaic, Tech Midchúarta and Rath Maeve compromising various earthworks, others appearing as circles or mounds in the grass, and Ráith na Ríg dominating the flat top of the hill with a bank and internal fosse.
It is believed that many of these monuments are barrows, a type of burial mound otherwise known as a tumulus, where a mound of earth and stones was raised over a grave or graves.
As such, it is thought that the Hill of Tara acted as a cemetery for at least part of its history. The M3 motorway, which opened in June 2010, passes through the Tara-Skryne Valley, as does the existing N3 road.
Protesters argue that since the Tara Discovery started in 1992 there is an appreciation that the Hill of Tara is just the central complex of a wider landscape.
The distance between the motorway and the exact site of the Hill is just 1.4 miles (2.2 km). Protesters at the time called for the motorway to be rerouted.
With the controversy surrounding the construction of the motorway, award-winning documentary filmmaker and musician, Mairéid Sullivan, created a short film (featured below) showing "that the complexity and importance of The Hill of Tara, a site older than the pyramids, goes well beyond what we've known about the site for the past few millennia."
The film highlights the discoveries of the Discovery program throughout the 1990s when they revealed that Tara is one of the oldest astronomical observatories in the world.
Inscriptions on the rocks in the tombs, now believed to be maps, may well show that the boundaries of the area stretch further than previously believed (it was originally thought to be the size of Croke Park stadium in Dublin).
The Tara Complex is still a well-loved place of ceremony, despite the motorway, and Irish pagans gather each year, especially on the summer solstice to carry out ceremonies and rituals on the hill.

BENGALURU - Gold prices edged up on Friday to a one-week high as the dollar weakened on receding fears of a full-blown Sino-U.S. trade war, keeping the yellow metal on track for its first weekly gain in four.
Spot gold was up 0.3 percent at $1,210.68 by 0712 GMT, after touching its highest since Sept. 13 at $1,211.02. It has risen 1.3 percent so far this week.
U.S. gold futures were up 0.3 percent at $1,215 per ounce.
"Higher gold prices are due to the fact that China-U.S. trade tensions have somewhat dissipated," OCBC analyst Barnabas Gan said.
"Right now we have to tread very carefully on gold as any uptick in trade tension is bearish. U.S. tariffs should actually improve trade balance in the U.S and should give more strength to the dollar and push gold prices down."
New U.S. and Chinese tariffs on each other's goods were set at lower rates this week than previously expected, raising hopes that hostilities between the world's two largest economies may be easing.
Investors have been buying the dollar believing that the United States has less to lose from the dispute. But the dollar has weakened this week, with investor flows being diverted away from the greenback to its peers such as emerging market currencies as trade war concerns have ebbed.
The dollar index was hovering near a 10-week low against a basket of major currencies.
Gold has declined over 11 percent from a peak in April, hurt by the intensifying U.S.-China trade dispute and on rising U.S. interest rates.
Investors are awaiting next week's Federal Reserve meeting, where the U.S. central bank is widely expected to raise benchmark interest rates.
Markets are pretty much already positioned in anticipation of U.S. rate hikes, analysts said.
"Due to other external uncertainties including and not limited to trade tensions and a U.S. mid-term election within two months, it is possible that investors will be prepared to give the Fed more time (for assessment of 2019 rate hike outlook)," said Jameel Ahmad, global head of currency strategy and market research at FXTM.
Investment bank Goldman Sachs slashed its 3-, 6- and 12-month gold price forecasts but said there were already signs that gold fundamentals were starting to change, with a recent weakening of the dollar and a rebound in Chinese and Indian gold purchases.
"From here, we continue to expect gradually higher gold prices on the back of renewed emerging markets demand."
Among other precious metals, spot silver rose 0.6 percent to $14.35, after rising to two-week highs of $14.41.
Palladium touched its highest since April 19 at $1,054.97 per ounce and was last down 0.3 percent at $1,053.22.
Platinum hit its highest since Aug. 9 at $837.80.

ROAD EASEMENT - ACCESS TO CUSTER FOREST
ROAD EASEMENT SECURES ACCESS TO CUSTER NATIONAL FOREST
A cooperative effort involving a private landowner, the U.S. Forest Service, and Montana Fish, Wildlife & Parks has secured an important public access route to thousands of acres of national forest system land in southeastern Montana.
The Beaver-Stacey Road No. 4769, located about 20 miles west of Broadus, extends from the prairie to the pine-covered hills of the Custer National Forest along the Pumpkin Creek – Tongue River Divide. While rancher Sandra Wood always allowed recreationists to use the road through her property, there was no formal public easement on this half-mile segment of a 5-mile-long U.S. Forest Service road.
Now that gap has been closed, thanks to a road easement acquired by FWP and subsequently transferred to the USFS on May 23. Acquisition of the road easement was funded by FWP’s Access Public Land program, using proceeds generated through the sale of nonresident “Come Home to Hunt” licenses.
The USFS contributed on-the-ground services in the form of road work, surveying and title coverage, while Sandra Wood provided the opportunity to complete this permanent public access route across her family’s historic Montana ranch.

Mako helps surgeons provide a more precise, accurate and personalized experience for patients undergoing total hip, total knee, and partial knee joint replacement surgery. It combines both sophisticated hardware (the actual robotic arm) and an advanced software application that programs the robotics for each type of surgery. A pre-op CT scan of the patient’s hip or knee, along with information from arrays that are placed on the patient in the operating room, create a 3-D image of the joint that can be examined from every angle on a monitor to assist the surgeon in performing the joint
In 2010, when Dr. Robert Marchand and his colleagues at South County Orthopedics (now Orthopedics RI – South County)/SCH began using Mako robotic-assisted technology, it was a breakthrough for hip replacement and partial
knee replacement. The technology was recently adapted and approved for robotic-assisted total knee replacement, and in June of 2016, SCH became one of the seven sites selected to do a study of robotic-assisted technology in total knee replacement. The study evaluated different ways of performing the surgery, efficiencies from a flow / mechanical / OR set-up / patient positioning perspective, and more.
As part of this process, Dr. Marchand completed clinical trials of 35 Mako robotic-assisted total knee replacements. The procedures were recorded start to finish as study creators attempted to develop a learning curve, including how long the procedures took to complete, the timing of every step, etc., in order to develop a pattern for the most efficient way to perform the procedures. Once the study was completed, SCH had the opportunity to purchase the new commercial software application, which would enable the robotic arm already being utilized for SCH’s robotic
partial knee and hip joint replacement surgeries to do full knee replacements.
During the fall of 2016, Dr. Marchand officially launched the world’s first commercial release of the robotic full knee replacement procedure and started surgeries on patients outside of the study. The team has now done about 600
Mako-assisted robotic total knees, and the orthopedic surgeons at South County have performed about 6,000 total joint replacement procedures with Mako robotic-assisted technology to date.
USING VIRTUAL SURGERIES TO EXPAND ROBOTIC-ASSISTED TRAINING
Due to the fact that Dr. Marchand and the team at SCH have become leaders in this field and have done such a large number of robotic-assisted orthopedic procedures, SCH has welcomed many colleagues from locations throughout the U.S. and the world, including Australia, China, Germany and Italy, among others, who have come to watch these surgeries to learn and observe the new robotic-assisted procedures first hand. However, a surgeon’s time is precious and it can be difficult for them to be away from their patients for several days at a time, and there is a limit to how many can be in the OR to observe a live surgery.
To address this, the SCH team, in conjunction with Stryker Mako, has now created another way for surgeons to observe Mako roboticassisted surgeries in real-time by outfitting an OR with cameras and microphones to create “virtual surgeries.” These virtual surgeries can be viewed through multiple different camera angles and participants can interact with the surgeon live to ask technical questions. They can be simultaneously streamed to a conference room in Mississippi, California or beyond.
Every detail counts when live streaming a procedure as detailed as orthopedic surgery and SCH relies on OSHEAN’s redundant Internet connection to provide the high-quality network connection needed for these live streaming events. OSHEAN’s Beacon 2.0 network, one of the most advanced optical networks in the country, provides OSHEAN members such as SCH with a highly manageable, highly redundant, standardsbased platform for a true service provider-grade network.
Virtual surgeries from SCH are now streamed on average of once a week. Instead of being able to have only one surgeon participate in a live OR, virtual surgeries expand the training opportunity to multiple surgeons as well as hospital administrators, at the same time and in the same room, providing multiple benefits. For example, many surgeons would naturally welcome the chance to have access to the latest in surgical technology such as Mako, but some hospital administrators may not immediately understand the value proposition of the technology. Hospital administrator personnel are not credentialed to be in the OR during a live surgery, but now with Mako, they’re given the ability to experience the surgery virtually along with multiple surgeons at different skill levels providing an excellent opportunity for all to ask questions, interact and learn about the technology and tools.
From an educational perspective, this is tremendously valuable.

- SideStroem joins world class accelerator program - November 12, 2022
- SideStroem Water Technologies and the Singapore Institute of Technology (SIT) collaborate to develop nanofiltration-type forward osmosis (NF-FO) membranes - September 14, 2022
- SideStroem Water Technologies uses novel FO membrane technologiesto reinvent resource recovery and enable productivity gains - July 13, 2022
Volume reduction of biomethanated spent wash from distilleries
We recently received a request from Srivathsan, a chemical and industrial engineer providing industrial solutions on resource recovery, who is looking to establish the feasibility of using forward osmosis to reduce the volume of biomethanated spent wash from distilleries.
The overall goal is to partially concentrate the waste stream before it goes to conventional separation of water (evaporation) in order to reduce the thermal load on the evaporator.
According to Srivathsan, a typical distillery will produce 800kL spent wash daily with a chemical composition as outlined below.
Industrial forward osmosis players capable of delivering technical feasibility studies on biomethanated spent wash are encouraged to leave their comments below.
What is biomethanated spent wash?
Distillery spent wash is a high-organic liquid waste product generated during alcohol production. Typically, the organic load of spent wash is reduced through biomethanation by which organic material is microbiologically converted under anaerobic conditions to biogas. The resulting waste stream is referred to as biomethanated spent wash.
6 thoughts on “Is forward osmosis a viable option for treating biomethanated spent wash from distilleries?”
The spent wash has high TDS (91700 ppm) which implies use of very high concentration draw. If the draw is readily available as other waste stream having high TDS, the process may be viable otherwise draw regeneration will be the bottleneck and the energy saved in spent wash concentration may be required to be used for draw regeneration. High concentration of Nitrogen (TAN- ?) is another worry as it may carry over to draw.
There is already a company that has trialed forward osmosis to do this at a distillery in the US. After a successful pilot, this company is planning to install a commercial system in July 2019. Also, note that not all TDS has the same osmotic pressure. You don’t show sodium, but the potassium and chloride are not that high, so a significant amount of the TDS seems to be divalents and organics, which have a lower osmotic pressure per mg/L than a chloride based draw solution. Yes some nitrogen will cary over to the draw, but this can be managed in a few different ways depending on how you want to reuse the purified water. You would need 50 micron or tighter pretreatment due to the combination of both TSS and organics which may agglomerate together during concentration, but it should be easy to get ~70% recovery with a FO and modified RO recovery system without any biological treatment involved.
Great to hear Porifera are already piloting this application. I’m very interested to hear how things pan out.
Can we use Potassium nitrate solution as draw solution. Additional N is not going to be a problem.
I have extensively worked with molasses based alcohol distillery wastewater using FO technology in a laboratory scale set-up. I used commercial magnesium chloride hexahydrate as draw because the osmotic pressure of this wastewater is quite high. Almost about 72% water can be removed from the wastewater. The only problem was re-concentration of draw solution as the working volume of draw used was high; which was required to maintain the osmotic gradient across the membrane.
A high concentration (>2M) of potassium nitrate as draw solution would work for this wastewater.
Potassium nitrate can be used at high concentration (>2M) for this wastewater.

Personal Best are a trio from Bristol UK that I was fortunately wise to because their singer sang a lot on Bedford Falls’ last album. I enjoyed their first EP quite a bit. It hinted at a Superchunk-y, ecstatically astute power-pop, but I remained at a distance for some reason. This album, though, has smitten me stupid.
Lauren Denitzio, from The Measure [SA] and Worriers, did the album art, and Personal Best seems to have channeled some of Denitzio’s ferocious melodicism into their already poppy songs. The ten songs bluster by in 24 minutes, but each one is memorable, beautiful. The relative ballad is “This Is What We Look Like,” which only sticks around for 3:44 and features some of the best dynamics on the album, lugging distorted guitars, dropping them for a jangly refrain. Almost any song could be a single, even the 38-second intro statement, “The Mission,” which prays that “All of my shame / has gotta be worth something to you.” It ends with a song called “Beauty is Terror” and it made me ask myself whether that’s what I’ve been terrified of this whole time. I don’t think it is, but it was worth asking.
Personal Best can sell the romance of “This is What We Look Like” (“I wanna kiss you in the street / where everyone can see”) and the honesty of “Beauty is Terror” in the same “pleasant,” love-centric pop. Pleasant in a non-derogatory sense–(what’s wrong with being pleased by music?)–pleasant in the way of Superchunk or newer bands like Chumped, whose joy is unrestrained on record, who summon love by making meaning out of guitars and choruses. I love this album. It gives me the same satisfaction as The Rebels Not In by The Halo Benders, A Nod is as Good as a Wink by Faces–albums so impressively solid that they come unstuck from time and just are great.

Imidazolium-labeled glycosides as probes to harness glycosyltransferase activity in human breast milk†
Imidazolium-labeled (ITag-) glycosides are used to harness the glycosyltransferase activity directly from human breast milk. The covalently attached ionic labels provide a bifunctional chemical handle that is used to monitor reaction progress by MS, as well as aid in product purification from complex mixtures. The technology is exemplified in the synthesis of biologically relevant oligosaccharide analogs, LacNAc-ITag, ITag-Lewisx and ITag-Lewisa, in a matter of days from human breast milk without having to isolate specific enzymes.

Generations of American soldiers and other armed services veterans poured their blood, sweat and tears onto the battlefield, fighting for freedom, our country and the pursuit of what is right. Many sacrificed time with family, risked irreversible injury and possible death, all in the name of selflessness. They brought victory home, but at a personal cost. We know they fought the battle bravely, but are we aware of how many of those veterans are waging a silent war for months, even years after returning home?
A recent movie, American Sniper, brought the issue of Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) to the forefront again. Critics called it a “ glorification of war”; people said scenes depicted in the movie show shades of life “we shouldn’t have to witness.” I couldn’t disagree more. Why should civilian Americans reap the benefits of our soldiers’ courage, yet turn a blind eye to what soldiers face? We train them for war, arm them and send them into combat. They see the other side of humanity – the terrifying, bloodthirsty, violent side – so we don’t have to. Our warriors compartmentalize and attempt to mentally close themselves off from the horror they saw, so they can continue to fight and find resolution from conflict.
After tours of duty are over, our heroes return stateside, but they are not alone. Memories worthy of horror movies follow them home and can haunt them for years to come. Any one of the five senses can trigger nightmares, panic attacks and anxiety, all stemming from those dark memories.
Too many suffer in silence; too many are embarrassed to ask for help. We can’t send a person into hell and expect them to return unburned from the flames. As a nation, that is proud of our heroes, we need to step up and raise more awareness and offer more assistance for our soldiers who are now home but still struggling to return.
Project Healing Waters is a wonderful organization doing just that.
I am not a solider, but coming from a long line of them, I appreciate the valor a person demonstrates by choosing to serve his or her country. My husband and his business partner, own a fly-fishing business in Bryson City, N.C., and feel it is their duty to volunteer each year with the Asheville Chapter of Project Healing Waters. This past October, I tagged along and documented the healing through pictures.
Soldiers having served from World War II to Operation Iraqi Freedom participated in the October fly-fishing event. Some disabilities were evident, others invisible to the eye, but it was understood that every soldier had faced tragedy, loss and fear. The event with Project Healing Waters gave them a chance to escape the grim images from their past, go stand in or sit beside a cool river, cast a line and hope to catch Trout. They came for the camaraderie with fellow soldiers and veterans alike, the peace that nature brings, the excitement of landing a fish and fellowship over a good meal that followed a meaningful, light-hearted day.
I talked with several veterans who expressed how important gatherings (with fellow warriors) such as this are. Fly-fishing experience isn’t required, and fly-fishing guides, such as my husband, donate their time and gear so participants can focus on having a fun-filled, carefree day.
My hope is that more Americans become involved with organizations such as Project Healing Waters or Wounded Warrior Project and volunteer their time to a group of people who deserve not to be forgotten.

Katribu joins 2013 partylist race
KATRIBU Indigenous Peoples’ Partylist is formally entering the electoral arena after the Commission on Elections (Comelec) released on November 29, 2012 the official list of the 79 partylist groups permitted to participate in the 2013 partylist race.
The decision was unanimous. All 7 Comelec commissioners voted to retain the accreditation of KATRIBU.
Beverly Longid, national president and first nominee of KATRIBU, in her delight said, “there is no more impediment to our participation in the upcoming partylist elections. Our participation is a continuation of the long running struggle of indigenous peoples for land, life and rights.”
KATRIBU Indigenous Peoples’ Partylist first joined the elections in 2010 but fell short of votes. Despite this, KATRIBU continued its program in upholding the interests, welfare and rights of indigenous peoples especially on ancestral land and self-determination, and for the interest of impoverished Filipinos.
“We have hurdled the first obstacle but there is more to be done. We have to further prepare for the upcoming campaign and election day.”
“In 2010, we faced the challenge of political vilification, militarization of katribu communities and limited resources. Our track record in the past years speaks of sincere service to indigenous peoples,” Longid added.
Our increasing membership and volunteers compensates for our limited resources,” Longid added.
“We will continue what we have started, in and out of the halls of Congress, and expect that we will be part of the people’s movement as long as inequality and injustice exists,” Longid say
“While we are pleased over the unanimous decision of the COMELEC on our petition . We wondering and worried over the decision of the COMELEC to approved bogus indigenous people partylist such as Abante Tribung Makabansa and Abante Katutubo.” Longid explain
Abante Mindanao is headed by former lawyer Hermenegildo Dumlao, While ATM is lead by former military men Col. Allen Capuyan who does not belong to any indigenois people tribe.
“As for the case of ATM, it a clear violation of the Supreme Court decision that state that nominee should belong to the marginalized group that they wish to represent. It seems to us that the COMELEC has shown a grave inconsistency over its decision. It also approved dubious partylist lead by businessman and government officials”
The group warned the public that they should be critical in choosing their partylist for the 2013 election, “while the number of partylist approved has significantly decreased, dubious partylist is still rampant in the present list of partylist, Longid said.

A WOMAN who feared her partner was going to kill her during a vicious assault has shared her story to raise awareness of the help available to victims of domestic violence.
Lynn Hart suffered horrific injuries when David Harrison repeatedly punched her in the face and beat her using a TV sound bar.
Lynn Hart, 53, suffered horrific injuries when her partner beat her with a TV speaker[/caption]
David Harrison, 52, was jailed for seven years over the assault last week[/caption]
Lynn hopes that by sharing her story she can raise awareness of the help available to victims of domestic violence[/caption]
Images taken after the attack show Lynn, 53, barely able to open her eyes and with her face covered in bruises.
Harrison, 52, flew into a rage after returning to his flat in Lower Gornal, Dudley from a nearby shop, where he had gone to buy alcohol.
After hitting Lynn until she fell to the ground, he continued to stamp and spit on her.
The incident was the latest in a series of assaults and the final straw for Lynn, who reported the attack to West Midlands Police.
“I genuinely thought he was going to kill me,” she told BirminghamLive.
“He just kept punching me in the face and then picked up the TV speaker and used that to hit me.
“I don’t remember how I got out of the flat… it’s all a blur.
“I went to my son’s house where he called the ambulance and police.
“I love David, that’s why I stayed with him through the beatings, in the hope he’d change… but I knew my life was in danger if I stayed with him and enough was enough.”
JAILED FOR SEVEN YEARS
Harrison was arrested the following day and initially tried to tell police Lynn had fallen down a flight on stairs, but was charged with wounding.
He later admitted the charge, and on September 3 was jailed for seven years at Wolverhampton Crown Court.
Lynn continued: “We moved in together about six months after meeting and at first everything was great.
“But he was a heavy drinker and slowly things started going wrong.
“First it was verbal abuse, putting me down and telling me things like ‘your family don’t love you, only I love you’.
“But then he started with the physical attacks… and they got worse over time.
“I would put on extra make-up and come up with excuses for anyone who saw through the concealer.”
‘THE POLICE WERE ABLE TO HELP’
Lynn wants to share her story to raise awareness of the help available from police and support groups.
She continued: “Each time he’d apologise and tell me it would never happen again.
“But I also thought there’s no point reporting it to the police as it would be my word against his, I wouldn’t be believed, and he’d then beat me even more.
“But that proved to be wrong and the police had enough to convict him.
“Looking back I should have got the police involved earlier but it’s easy to say in hindsight.
“They supported me from the moment I reported it, believed in me – that was important – and guided me through the court process.
‘SPEAK TO SOMEONE’
Lynn also says that it is possible to break out of an abusive relationship.
“There might be thousands of people… in the position I was in, torn between their love for a partner but every day scared they could be assaulted for no reason, just a stray look or word,” she said.
“Or even no reason at all. What I’d say is get help.
“It’s unlikely their abusive partner will suddenly just change – so speak to support groups like Women’s Aid and speak to the police.
“They can help you escape violent situations and come out the other side.
“I know how difficult breaking away can be but I truly feel that if I’d have stayed with David any longer I would have ended up dead.”
Detective Inspector Catherine Webb-Jones, from the force’s Public Protection Unit, said: “Lynn’s appeal comes from the heart: victims of abuse need to find the courage to seek support… don’t suffer alone and don’t tolerate abuse.
“Lynn is a survivor and others victims can take comfort and seek their own solace from the courage she has shown.
MOST READ IN NEWS
“West Midlands Police will seek to safeguard vulnerable people from further harm as well as identify the triggers of abuse.
“Via referrals to support groups and charities such as Women’s Aid, we can support victims to take action to prevent further harm, and via offender interventions will address the causes of domestic abuse in the hope of changing their behaviour.”

How much sleep do adults need? Children? Teens?
On average, adults need between 7 and 8 hours of sleep each night.
Compare this to newborns who need roughly 18 hours of sleep. As you age, the amount of sleep needed decreases.
Fact or Fiction: You can make up for lost sleep.
FACT. Many people work long hours during the week resulting some sleep deprivation, and they catch up on weekends.
What would you define as too much sleep?
Excessive daytime sleepiness is usually a result of some type of sleep disorder, primary (OSA, RLS, PLMD, RBD) or secondary (poor sleep habits, pain, mood disorder).
With schools out, should teens/children still maintain the same bedtime, or is it ok to allow some flexibility?
Teens and children should have a regular schedule.
If the schedule is slightly different from the time the schools open again, adjustment should occur quickly, but if the schedule is hugely different, (example: bedtime at 2 AM and waking up at 11 AM), it will be more difficult to adjust.
What are the risks of not getting enough sleep as an adult?
Sleep deprivation, independent of the cause (primary vs secondary sleep disorder) increases the risk of many other disorders, including cardiovascular diseases, diabetes, obesity, mood disorder.
What are some barriers to healthy sleep, and how can we prevent those?
People should try to have a regular sleep schedule and avoid alcohol or drugs abuse. It is also helpful to avoid large meals close to bedtime, and get regular exercise in the morning or afternoon. These are just a few recommendations for a good quality of sleep.
How can you work with your partner to carve out healthy sleep habits if his/her habits are different?
Carving out healthy sleep habits can sometimes be challenging depending on the relationship, and it should be addressed on a case-by-case situation.
Can stress affect your sleep cycle?
Any mood alteration can affect sleep.
There are many techniques to decrease stress and anxiety before bedtime, but if it is not under good control, a mental health specialist should be consulted.
Why is sticking to a regular, recurring sleep schedule important?
Your body and brain like routine, including going to bed at the same time, getting up at the same time, regular time for meals and for other physiologic necessities. When there is no routine, the body and brain will work erratically.
What sorts of issues can arise if you deviate from your usual sleep habits – both short and long-term?
Some difficulties include:
- Falling asleep or waking up
- Frequently waking up during the night
- Excessive daytime sleepiness
- Unpleasant general feeling
- Poor professional performance
- Increased risk of accidents
Is exercise also an important factor in helping to achieve healthy sleep habits?
Yes, but exercise should be avoided in the evening, or the body will need longer time to cool down and go to sleep, resulting in difficulties falling asleep.
11 Tips for Better Sleep Hygiene
The following are some great tips to follow for better sleep hygiene.
#1 – Maintain a regular sleep routine.
Go to bed at the same time. Wake up at the same time. Ideally, your schedule should remain the same (+/- 20 minutes) every night of the week.
#2 – Spend the right amount of time in bed.
It is important to spend an appropriate amount of time in bed, not too little, or too excessive. This may vary by individual.
For example: If someone has a problem with daytime sleepiness, they should spend a minimum of eight hours in bed, if they have difficulty sleeping at night, they should limit themselves to 7 hours in bed in order to keep the sleep pattern consolidated.
#3 – Avoid daytime naps.
Napping during the day can disturb the normal pattern of sleep and wakefulness.
#4 – Avoid stimulants close to bedtime.
Avoid stimulants such as caffeine, nicotine, and alcohol too close to bedtime. While alcohol is well known to speed the onset of sleep, it disrupts sleep in the second half as the body begins to metabolize the alcohol, causing arousal.
#5 – Exercise to promote good sleep.
Vigorous exercise should be taken in the morning or late afternoon. A relaxing exercise, like yoga, can be done before bed to help initiate a restful sleep.
#6 – Avoid large meals too close to bedtime.
Food can be disruptive right before sleep; stay away from large meals close to bedtime. Also dietary changes can cause sleep problems. If someone is struggling with a sleep problem, it’s not a good time to start experimenting with spicy dishes. And, remember, chocolate has caffeine.
#7 – Ensure adequate exposure to natural light.
This is particularly important for older people who may not venture outside as frequently as children and adults.
Light exposure helps maintain a healthy sleep-wake cycle.
#8 – Establish a regular relaxing bedtime routine.
Try to avoid emotionally upsetting conversations and activities before trying to go to sleep. Don’t dwell on, or bring your problems to bed.
#9 – Associate your bed with sleep.
It’s not a good idea to use your bed to watch TV, listen to the radio, or read.
#10 – Create a relaxing sleep environment.
Make sure that the sleep environment is pleasant and relaxing. The bed should be comfortable, the room should not be too hot or cold, or too bright.
#11 – Avoid looking at the time.
If you are a ‘clock watcher’ at night, hide the clock.

” In dealing with those who are undergoing great suffering, if you feel “burnout ” setting in, if you feel demoralized and exhausted, it is best, for the sake of everyone, to withdraw and restore yourself. The point is to have a long-term perspective.”~ Dalai Lama
No Memes in this post.
I’M EXHAUSTED. just want to go back to sleep. I’m angry. I know people around the world who have severe mental health issues and are exploited by the ones closest to them.
Yesterday was challenging. I am duty bound to protect and safe guard those in my own personal life.. I had to get tough and put some rock bottom pressure on. I had to force peoples hands.
I did this from a place of care and concern over those I love.
Exploitation. The word -always makes me think of young Slovakian girls being trafficked for their body.
A lot of the time exploitation can happen and does happen closer to home.
Family exploit family don’t they?
It happens all the time – watch Jerry springer or Jeremy Kyle.
Money and addictions and poor mental can make a poisonous cocktail.
I wonder to myself how many times could, or indeed should I give chances to people who constantly let me and or others down; or have never ever been an ally from day one.
This is especially true in relationships – one example being relationship dynamics in families.
We want to forgive and move on and one day we might see a a spark of change. We may even say:
“I can see this person is struggling lets give this person another shot”
The fact is this person or people may turn out to have missed a true vocation in Acting.
That happens a lot in family and in relationships in general.
Has anyone tried to give a person the benefit of the doubt over and over again? Only to find out that you have been living under a lens. Living under a lens of a person trying to find out your weakness to exploit them for their own gain?
Have you seen this done to some one you love? care about?
Some times you have to make tough decisions. You have to force the poison out and that means going to the source –
no bullshitting and pussyfooting about.
It is about telling it like it is and what is going to happen.
I’m sure I am not alone. We all have people we love. We see the people in our life battle and sometimes recover and get better at dealing with life.
You see something come along that you know could take the very person you love who is doing better out and your don’t want to lose them,
so what do you do?
I know what I would do
I fight in their corner. I become merciless. Once bridges have been burned -especially if the bridge was not based on a solid foundation to begin with – I fight and protect the ones who I feel need me. The people I want in my life.
It might not be my battle or yours but I feel it becomes mine when I see someone falling and you I know how to solve the immediate and long term problem.
Usually the most vulnerable people in our society are the ones who don’t want to make waves or feel duty bound to stick up for the very people who get used for another their advantage.
This happens a lot. If it had to start happening close to home or close to the home of someone I love. I get into sniper mode and I can be ruthless.
Vulnerable people need to be protected, treated humanely, respected, listened to and encouraged to talk.
Yes, there is an influx of people who need help. If it was an easy job to tackle and well paid, everyone would want to work or volunteer in the mental health sector.
I see many professionals like a doctor reduced to machines when dealing with peoples problems. They see it all the time and become conditioned to protect their own feelings and usually come across as cold and anal.
Mental health charities try to humanise a persons experience and validate these people again.
So yes, I am exhausted. I didn’t get a chance to shut down. I may not have got everything I wanted to do done yesterday. I’m going to carry on but I need to listen to my own trigger signs.
My body and mind say go back to sleep and gain more energy.
Today is going to be a long one……..
Should I just close my eyes fro am minute or two? I want to make sure everything and everyone gets my full attention. Balance is hard to find when you become a vigilante for people.
Life is simple if you just keep to yourself but I can’t watch someone who has done everything in their power to live and be the best they can be, be exploited and watch their health dip even more.
There is also the hard tough love and judgement calls we have to make when we try and try and try again to help someone, who may not want to see the problem -they lie to themselves and to others.
It’s a fucking sorry state to be in –
horrific enough to watch someone have to go through that and know that no matter what is said and done -nothing will change until a person wants change.
So yesterday was all about dealing with various issues and giving my time and listening.
Where in all of this do I STAND?
I need to get some sleep so I can get shit done properly. I can’t function on anything the way I feel now. so first I have to take care of my mental health and only then can I give my full attention to others and that spills over in to my blogging life.
I want to take in what I hear ,see and read.
So, I will catch up with you all later.
Tuesday what awaits me?
Have an epic day and look after you first. You can’t hlep anyone if your health is suffering.

SAN DIEGO (CNS) - A top leader of a violent Mexican drug trafficking crew participated in the 2004 murders of three friends in southern San Diego, in which the Tijuana residents were shot and asphyxiated by having socks stuffed down their throats, a prosecutor alleged Tuesday.
In his opening statement in the trial of Jorge Rojas Lopez and Juan Francisco Estrada-Gonzalez, Deputy District Attorney Mark Amador said Rojas Lopez was one of four "Los Palillos" gang members who lured the victims to a home and eventually killed them. Amador said one of the victims had ties to drug trafficking.
"Jorge Rojas was the boss. He planned it," Amador told the jury.
Rojas Lopez and Estrada-Gonzalez, both 33, are charged in several killings in San Diego County from 2004 to 2007.
Rojas Lopez is charged in nine murders. Estrada-Gonzalez is accused in six. They each face the death penalty if convicted.
Amador told the jury that both defendants participated in the August 2005 murder of a 22-year-old low-level drug dealer who was tied up, beaten, stomped or punched and dumped along a road in Chula Vista.
Two weeks later, a man was kidnapped, beaten with a police-type battering ram and killed in Bonita, the prosecutor said. Both Rojas Lopez and Estrada-Gonzalez are charged in that crime.
The defendants, alleged members of the Arellano Felix splinter group Los Palillos, or "the toothpicks," are already serving sentences of life without parole after being convicted of kidnapping and other crimes.
After more than two months of jury selection, opening statements originally began on March 11, only to be halted because of health concerns regarding Judge John Einhorn. He was later taken off the case and replaced by Judge David Rubin.
The trial -- expected to take nine months to a year -- could end up being the longest in San Diego County history.

The 11-story, 250,000 s.f. expansion was designed to foster communications among hospital staff, as well as with patients, and families, an aspect of particular importance in the pediatric acute care environment.
The facility, which opened in 2005, received the 2006 Modern Healthcare Award of Excellence. It incorporates sophisticated medical technology, including the innovative MROR, which bring magnetic resonance imaging technology into the surgical suite.

Shepley Bulfinch’s expansion project for Children’s Hospital Boston was named one of 12 winners of Modern Healthcare’s Award of Excellence in its 21st Annual Design Awards. The 240,000 s.f. project laterally expanded the functions of the hospital’s main building, which the firm designed in 1985, to contiguous space in the new building.

Two Shepley Bulfinch projects were recognized for their design at the Boston Society of Architects’ 2014 Design Awards Gala on January 29.
Smilow Cancer Hospital at Yale-New Haven took home an honor award for healthcare facility design. Director Cathy Lange accepted the ‘Hobson’ for the project team at last week’s ceremony.
In their remarks, the design jury noted how “the architect delivered with clean, simple, and timeless design… The exterior design is very sensitive, with arrays of windows, terracotta screens, and glass stair towers combining for an elegant urban expression.”

KUALA LUMPUR, April 16 — Perkasa called today for the withdrawal of a civil suit filed against the government that sought the deportation of Indian televangelist Dr Zakir Naik.
The Malay rights group chief Datuk Ibrahim Ibrahim reminded Hindraf chairman P. Waythamoorthy, one of the 19 who filed the suit, that protests against Dr Zakir in the country were not welcomed because the majority of Muslims and a small group of non-Muslims who attended his lectures were there on their own free will.
“This same argument could be applied on why thousands of people converge to Batu Caves on Thaipusam. Majority of them, including several Hindu gurus from India, came to Batu Caves on this day for religious purposes.
“But, there are also Muslims, including the Prime Minister who came to Batu Caves on the basis of goodwill, racial unity and religious tolerance,” Ibrahim said during his speech at the “Istimak session of Dr Zakir Naik with 150 Malaysian Muslim Intellectuals” today.
On the same context, Ibrahim said that non-Muslims had also turned up at Dr Zakir’s lectures. He said it was inappropriate for organisers to evict them.
“Hence, if several of these people embrace Islam after listening to Dr Zakir, it is unwise for us to blame the organiser or him.
“As such, I sincerely hope that Hindraf would erase its negative perception on Dr Zakir’s lectures on Islam; and Mr Waythamoorthy and 18 others, would kindly withdraw their case against Dr Zakir, which was already filed in the Kuala Lumpur High Court,” he said.
Ibrahim also urged Hindraf, a Hindu rights group, to stop attacking Islam.
“I hope that Hindraf would be gentlemen and kind enough to stop its politics of hate on Islam and politicisation on Dr Zakir’s lectures in Malaysia.”
The suit filed last month by several Muslim and non-Muslim activists had sought a government declaration that Dr Zakir was a threat to national security.
It also urged the government to ban the Mumbai-born Islamic preacher from entering the county, and for him to be arrested and deported immediately.
According to media reports, a Mumbai court recently issued an arrest warrant against Dr Zakir, who is under investigation for speeches that allegedly “spread enmity” among communities after some perpetrators of the Bangladesh terror attack last year said they had followed his sermons.

Metro Vancouver condo and attached homes continued to dominate demand in the region last month.
Thanks to the strong interest in the typically more affordable housing types, overall residential sales in the region were 7 per cent above the 10-year January sales average, according to the latest data from the Real Estate Board of Greater Vancouver (REBGV), published Friday.

“Demand remains elevated and listings scarce in the attached and apartment markets across Metro Vancouver,” says Jill Oudil, REBGV president, in a press release.
“Buyers in the detached market are facing less competition and have much more selection to choose,” she adds.
By property type, condo sales were up roughly 32 per cent from the 10-year January average, attached sales increased 14 per cent and detached sales were down nearly 25 per cent.
As the region struggles with limited supply, the amount of newly listed detached, attached and apartment properties declined 8 per cent year-over-year, with a total of 3,796 units. However, newly listed homes saw a 100 per cent increase compared to December 2017 when 1,891 homes were listed.
Here are 11 more facts that prove the fierce demand for Metro Vancouver condos and attached homes continued in January.
1. A total of 1,818 homes changed hands in the region, a 19 per cent increase from 1,523 sales seen in January 2017, and a roughly 10 per cent drop compared to the 2,016 homes sold in December 2017.
2. The total amount of properties listed for sale in the region was 6,947, down 4 per cent compared to 7,238 homes a year ago.
3. Demand for certain property types soared and supply was limited, resulting in upward pressure on prices. The benchmark price for all residential homes in Metro Vancouver was $1,056,500 last month, up roughly 17 per cent from January 2017 and a 0.6 per cent increase compared to December 2017.
4. Metro Vancouver remains a sellers’ market with a sales-to-active listings ratio of 26 per cent. According to REBGV, downward pressure on home prices occurs when the ratio falls below the 12 per cent mark for a prolonged period, while home prices often experience upward pressure when the ratio exceeds 20 per cent over several months.
5. By property type, the sales-to-active listings ratio was roughly 12 per cent for detached homes, 33 per cent for townhomes and 57 per cent for condos.
6. In the detached segment, a total of 487 homes sold in the region, a roughly 10 per cent uptick from the 444 detached sales seen in January 2017.
7. The benchmark price of a detached home was $1,601,500, an 8 per cent increase from a year ago and a 0.3 per cent decline from December 2017.
8. A total of 1,012 condos sold in the region last month. This represents a nearly 23 per cent climb compared to the 825 sales recorded a year ago.
9. Condos saw the largest annual gain in price growth among all property types in January, with a 27 per cent year-over-year increase to an average of $665,400.
10. In the attached segment, home sales totalled 319, up roughly 26 per cent compared to 254 units a year ago.
11. The benchmark price of an attached home was $803,700 last month, rising 17 per cent from January 2017.

Wolves at Work connects hundreds to Magna jobs
Wolves at Work employment programme is helping hundreds of people secure jobs through a partnership with Magna Specialist Confectioners. The company, based in Telford, are Europe’s largest manufacturer of Hollow and Shell-moulding chocolate products.
Since the summer it has connected with Wolves at Work, which is run by City of Wolverhampton Council and the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP), to help more than 550 Wolverhampton residents secure seasonal Production Operative roles through a series of recruitment activities in the city.
As part of the project, Magna is also running daily coaches from Wolverhampton to transport the successful applicants to the factory for their shifts and back.
Magna HR Manager, Fiona Hamer, said: “Wolves at Work have been amazing during our recruitment process, from start to finish. We met with the team in June, they came to understand our needs, they were all very motivated to support us in every way they could and worked out a plan to support our recruitment demand.
“We needed 900-plus production staff, the action plan consisted of utilising contacts, establishing venues, job fairs, Wolves Workbox and Twitter, job centre communications, pop-up events in the Mander Centre, plus much more. We had continual contact to ensure things were moving as planned.
“The team have gone above and beyond to help us achieve a very demanding result, we can’t thank the team enough, we believe we would not have achieved the result without this support, it was integral to achieve this year’s business result. We look forward to future partnership working between Magna and Wolves at Work.”
City of Wolverhampton Council Leader, Councillor Ian Brookfield, added: “The Wolves at Work team have forged a strong relationship with Magna, which is reaping great rewards for city residents and their families.
“It has secured work for hundreds of people and it is yet another success story for the scheme which has already seen thousands of people supported into work.”
Anyone interested in local jobs or employers needing recruitment support in Wolverhampton can register at www.wolvesworkbox.com.

Vista Equity Partners wraps up its purchase of Sage Healthcare, which is has renamed Vitera Healthcare Solutions. Vitera also introduces a new Web site, which looks a lot like the old Web site except for this fun banner at the top of the landing page. Betty Otter-Nickerson, former president of Sage Healthcare division, will be stepping down at the end of the year and replaced by new CEO Matthew Hawkins. Hawkins is the former VP and GM of Henry Schein Practice Solutions.
NextGen Healthcare kicks off its 2011 Users’ Group Meeting in Las Vegas with over 4,200 participants. Keynote speakers include the ONC’s Farzad Mostashari, MD and former Blue Angel John Foley, who was scheduled to discuss achieving high performance. I also looked at a few of #nextgenugm Tweets and saw a number of positive comments on Foley’s keynote speech, as well as a few expressing disappointment that some sessions were full. By the way, the official press release notes that “many” of the company’s ambulatory inpatient users have attested for Meaningful Use and over 100 have earned PCMH designation.
gloStream hires Mark Crall and Steve Luby as co-directors of the company’s partners program.
CalOptima REC adds SuiteMed to its preferred EHR vendor list.
The 175-provider Vancouver Clinic (WA) implements Epic EMR. Well, I assume it’s Epic, given that the local newspaper says it’s the same EMR used by Kaiser and 24% of the country’s providers.
Practice Fusion hosted a free user meeting in San Francisco last week on the forth anniversary of the company’s founding. CEO Ryan Howard says the company now has 130,000 medical professionals using the system to document the health of 25 million patients. In addition, it refers $40 billion worth of business every year to pharmacies and labs that pay to advertise on the Practice Fusion site.

Emdeon announces Healthpayers Protect, a new service that allows payers to analyze adjudicated claims before they are paid.
The Colorado RHIO’s (CORHIO) financial model may need some tweaking, given that many Boulder-area physicians are balking at the $85/month connection fee and the initial $2,500 to $5,000 per practice training cost. An estimated 50% of area physicians don’t have an EHR, which means they are unable to connect to the RHIO. Then there are the 70 physicians with Boulder Medical Center who don’t see the need for the RHIO since they are already connected to one another via their NextGen system. CORHIO’s five-year business plan calls for taking in $26 million in federal grants and $19 million in subscriber fees.
The Supreme Court announces that it will review the healthcare reform law over a two-day period in March.

The Misfits is the story of 5 young students who are all outcasts in their school, and their struggles to fit in or find their niche. They form a political party to run for student council, in order to force their peers to accept diversity and each other’s differences, but they are denied by their teachers. Instead, they end up running as a No-Name Party based on the platform that nobody should ever be called names, because it is very hurtful.
Addie, Skeezie, Bobby and Joe struggle are called so many names by their peers; nerdy, geeky, greasy and many derogatory names referring to Joe’s sexual identity. While reading this book, I was quite appalled; I did not have this experience growing up, nor do I remember seeing it happen, although I am quite certain that it probably did happen to some of my peers. I want to give the other students the benefit of the doubt, and to argue that maybe they didn’t realize how hurtful they were being. I think this is a really great book for upper elementary students and even middle school students to read, because the characters are so easy to relate to; not everyone can see themselves as Addie, Skeezie, Bobby or Joe, but we probably have seen an Addie, Skeezie, Bobby or Joe at some point in our lives. And whether or not we will admit it, many of us have at least felt uncomfortable or left out or felt different at some point in time.
I’m sure that this novel is considered controversial, just because of all the touchy issues it addresses (mostly the homosexuality, but also bullying, emotional abuse, diversity, racism, discrimination, lack of teacher/adult support etc…), but given the chance I think I would definitely teach this novel. This book may make students feel uncomfortable, but in my mind, if they are feeling uncomfortable about it then they are really getting the point of it; they see how hurtful it is, and maybe they are relating to it and that is making them reflect on the novel. I don’t think that any student will be personally offended by this novel, which makes me feel that it is a book that students can learn from, and they may not be able to learn about these issues to this extent in another book, so that justifies teaching it in the classroom.
One theme that is so important and so apparent in this novel is that: “Different is okay, and we should accept people for who they are”. I think that especially considering the target audience of this novel, reinforcing that idea is so crucial. Given what has been happening lately in our society, bullying is such a problem, and the way to prevent it in the future is to teach our children and students just how hurtful it can be.
