Google’s PageRank is a measurement of a page’s worth based on the quantity and quality of both
incoming and outgoing links.The concept behind PageRank is that each link to a page constitutes
a vote, and Google has a sophisticated and automated way of tallying these votes, which includes
looking at a vast universe of interlinking pages. Google awards PageRank on a scale of 0 to 10;
a PageRank value of 10 is the most desirable and extremely rare.Like the Richter scale,the
PageRank scale is not linear,so the difference between 4 and 5 is much greater than the differ-
ence between 3 and 4.
More often than not, pages with high PageRank have higher Google rankings than pages with low
PageRank.And therein lies the link obsession.Throughout the SEO community, the scrambling for,
trading, and even selling of links became such a focus over the past several years that Google
modified its system and began to devalue certain kinds of links.It’s widely accepted, for example,
that links from content-deficient “link farm”websites do not improve a page’s PageRank, and get-
ting a link from a page with high PageRank but irrelevant content (say, a popular comic book site
that links to a forklift specifications page) won’t either.Google now displays updated PageRank
values at infrequent intervals to discourage constant monitoring.
It’s good to get links to your site, but obsessive link building to the point of excluding other areas
of SEO is a waste of time. Keep a holistic head on your shoulders and remember these points:
Google’s ranking algorithm is not based entirely on inbound links.
A high PageRank does not guarantee a high Google rank.
A PageRank value viewed today may be up to three months old.
PageRank is still a fairly good indication of how Google regards your website’s pages, and you’ll
learn how to gather your own measurements in Your SEO Plan. But in the Right Now of SEO,think
of PageRank as a hobby, not a religion.
The Best of the Rest: Yahoo!, MSN, AOL, Ask
Taken as a group, the major non-Google search engines that we’re about to discuss
make up a larger percentage of the search market than Google, which means they
deserve your attention. This is even more true if your organization is looking for an
edge in a special area such as shopping, local, or mobile search. Non-Google search
engines allow you to fill out your website’s presence so that it is not overly dependent

Riot Fest 2014 Announces New Downtown Denver Location
Denver, Colorado -- After residents of Byers, Colorado ousted the festival from its city limits, Riot Fest Denver has announced the new location for its 2014 installment. Instead of taking place at May Farms, this year's festival will now take place in downtown Denver at Sports Authority Field in Mile High Stadium. The date and lineup will not change.
The biggest bummer for festivalgoers is that camping will no longer be available - while all camping passes will be refunded, attendees from out of town will now have to find accommodations elsewhere.
The festival announced it was forced out of its original location in Byers, Colorado last week, after town residents voiced opposition to the festival returning. Check out an anti-Riot Fest newspaper ad from Byers below:
Riot Mike has released an apologetic statement about the whole ordeal, detailing the festival's history in Byers and the entire location-change situation. In it, he essentially defends punk-rock and its place in the small town of Byers, whose residents forced the festival out. Read the statement on Riot Fest's website.
Despite the new location and drama, Riot Fest Denver is still one of the best punk festivals around - headlined this year by Weezer, The Cure, and The National. It takes place September 19-21, and tickets are on sale now.

ROBERT SIEGEL, host:
President Obama also appointed a White House commission to create a sweeping, bipartisan plan to rein in the federal debt. Well, that commission wraps up its work this week. Members may or may not reach a consensus on the way forward, but this much is clear: The fiscal mistakes of America's past have come back to haunt us.
So in preparation for the commission's report, NPR's Scott Horsley borrows a familiar page from Charles Dickens.
(Soundbite of film, "A Christmas Carol")
(Soundbite of bells)
Unidentified Man (Actor): (as Scrooge) Horrible nightmare.
SCOTT HORSLEY: You remember "A Christmas Carol," where an old man wakes up with a whole new view of the world. That's what the authors hope the country will do after they issue their report on the debt later this week.
Most of the time, the only people losing sleep over the federal debt are government accountants and professional scolds. But this year, the specter of red ink seems to have a lot more ordinary Americans tossing and turning.
We heard about it on Election Day from folks like Bernie Marony, Didi Wojtal and Pat Henry.
Mr. BERNIE MARONY: I think it's a national problem. I think it needs to be solved. And I think we have to learn to live within our means.
Ms. DIDI WOJTAL: I am extremely worried about government spending. We need to balance our checkbook like the American taxpayers do.
Mr. PAT HENRY: Whenever you spend more than you have, it just doesn't work. You can't do it on the personal end. You can't do it on a personal financial end. And we're printing money at an alarming rate.
HORSLEY: President Obama insists he's ready to tackle this tough issue. So when Congress balked at creating a commission to help cut the debt, Mr. Obama appointed one of his own.
The 10 Democrats and eight Republicans who make up the commission have been studying the problem for months: reviewing the tax code, discretionary spending and entitlement programs like Social Security. The co-chairs, former Senator Alan Simpson and President Clinton's former Chief of Staff Erskine Bowles, have already gone public with a draft solution.
As Bowles told a breakfast organized by the Christian Science Monitor, lawmakers can either deal with the rising debt or have a fix thrust upon them by those who've been lending us money.
Mr. ERSKINE BOWLES (Co-chair, National Commission on Fiscal Responsibility and Reform): The problem we face is real. The solutions are all tough. And what Alan and I decided was everything had to be on the table.
HORSLEY: The Simpson-Bowles plan includes significant spending cuts and new tax revenues. Predictably, Simpson says, it drew immediate protests from both the left and the right.
Mr. ALAN SIMPSON (Co-chair, National Commission on Fiscal Responsibility and Reform): We have irritated hopefully everyone in the United States and especially every group. The groups have organized against us and will come like harpies off the cliffs with their taloned hands and fingers out. You can be savaged from the right and the left, which is good, good place.
A week after Simpson and Bowles published their plan, a second bipartisan group issued their recommendations for cutting the debt. While there are important differences, both maps lead in the same direction.
For example, both would increase tax revenues not by raising rates but by cutting out deductions. Income tax rates would actually come down. Both plans would curtail Social Security benefits for future retirees while increasing payments to the neediest seniors.
In other words, both plans involve compromise. And chief economist Diane Lim Rogers of the fiscal watchdog Concord Coalition says both are reasonable.
Ms. DIANE LIM ROGERS (Chief Economist, Concord Coalition): As soon as we can get the conservatives to realize that in these proposals are pro-growth tax reform proposals and the liberals to realize that in these proposals are Social Security reforms that actually strengthen the safety net, as soon as they can realize that, we'll be getting somewhere.
HORSLEY: Even talking about raising tax revenues or cutting spending is difficult while the country is still trying to dig out from recession. But Rogers notes that none of the proposals would take effect before 2012 at the earliest.
Ms. ROGERS: I think it's possible to start talking about or remind policymakers about the need for fiscal responsibility even in a time when you're running big budget deficits.
HORSLEY: President Obama has avoided commenting on either plan until his own commission has a chance to finish its work. But he told a gathering of business leaders in Japan this month he's not willing to cut government spending in areas he sees as growth engines, areas such as education or clean energy.
President BARACK OBAMA: We will make sacrifices. But everyone here should know that as long as I am president, we are not going to sacrifice America's future or our leadership in the world.
HORSLEY: Of course, unless the government gets control of its debt, it may not have the money or the borrowing capacity to make those investments in the future. But as Dickens told us, the future is not set in stone.
(Soundbite of film, "A Christmas Carol")
Unidentified Man (Actor): (As Scrooge) Men's courses will foreshadow certain ends. I accept it. But if those courses be departed from, the ends must change. Tell me that is so by what you show me.
(Soundbite of thunder)
HORSLEY: We'll have more on the choice we face about our future debt tomorrow on MORNING EDITION. Scott Horsley, NPR News, Washington.

Federer moves into third round
London: Swiss Roger Federer Monday kept on course for adding the Olympic title to his Wimbledon crown, beating Julien Benneteau of France in straight sets in the second round of the men's singles tennis competitions at the All England Club.
The World No.1 swept past his 32nd-ranked opponent 6-2, 6-2 in an hour and will now play either Luxembourg's Gilles Muller or Uzbekistan's Denis Istomin.
Elsewhere in the draw, world No.2 Novak Djokovic will meet former US Open champion Andy Roddick in the second round of the Olympic tennis tournament after the American beat Slovakia's Martin Klizan Monday.
Roddick forced his way past Klizan 7-5, 6-4 thanks to late breaks in both sets as the Slovak, ranked 52nd in the world, put up stiff resistance.
"It was good. I got myself a couple of great points and only a couple of breaks, but I served pretty well and got through," Roddick said.
The Olympic tennis is being played at Wimbledon, where Djokovic won last year and Roddick has reached the final three times, most recently in 2009.
Argentinian World No.10 Juan Monaco booked his place in the second round by beating Belgium's David Goffin 6-4, 6-1 and will now play Feliciano Lopez of Spain in the second round after he beat Russia's Dmitry Tursunov 6-7, 6-2, 9-7.
Croatia's 13th seed Marin Cilic will face 2002 Wimbledon champion Lleyton Hewitt in the second round after beating Austria's Jurgen Melzer 7-6(5), 6-2.
"It was not as comfortable as I thought it was going to be," Cilic said.
"In the first set I had a break and then I thought I'm going to get that first set done but Jurgen played really well at the end of the first set and made me a little uncomfortable on the court."
Elsewhere in the draw, France's World No.20 Richard Gasquet beat 33rd-ranked Robin Haas of the Netherlands 6-3, 6-3 while there was also a win for Canada's Milos Raonic.

Up-hill and Looking Back and Afterwards
The poems I am going to analyse and compare are 'Remember', 'Up-hill'
and 'Looking Back' by Christina Rossetti and 'Afterwards' by Thomas
Hardy. These poems reflect on the theme of loss and how it affects the
poets when they reflect on it. The poems also show the poets'
preoccupation of death. In these poems, the poets approach the theme
of death using various different techniques and linguistic devices.
Christina Rossetti is a passionate and powerful poet; the majority of
her poetry has contained the themes of either love or death, and in
many cases both. Even in the poems which she wrote for children, these
themes are prominent. Hardy too was very close to nature. In his poem
there are vivid descriptions of objects and the element of nature is
almost always present.
The titles of these poems all give a hint about what the poem is
about. 'Remember' tells us that the poet wants to be remembered for
something. Often one is remembered after her death because the pain of
loss keeps bringing back her memories. In the poem Rossetti does ask
her lover to remember her and demands that he should "Only remember
me". 'Up-hill' tells us that that the poet is probably going on a
journey. This journey is the journey of life, which Rossetti is
inquiring about in her poem. 'Looking back' shows us that the poet is
reflecting on something. Again, one always 'looks back' on life when
he is near his death to see what he has done and evaluate his life.
'Afterwards' is also a title which could refer to the theme of death.
Hardy wants to know what will happen 'afterwards' when he is dead. He
wants to be remembered not for his fame but for his closeness to
nature and for the person he is.
There are contrasting attitudes to the same theme in the poems. In
'Remember' Rossetti looks at death in a very grim manner. She looks at
it with anger as it is the gate between her lover and herself. This is
not so in her other poems. In 'Up-hill' she looks at it with fear and
so a series of questions follow. She is unsure of herself and her
destination and so naturally her fear causes her to question so much.
In 'Looking Back' she sees death as a time of reflection - a
reflection of one's achievements and mistakes. She feels that it is
the time for evaluation as it is the final thing left to do before
parting away. Hardy looks at death as a time of evaluation - from
other people. He feels that once we die other people will remember us
because we are no more present with them. In his poem he hopes that he
will be remembered for his love of God's gift of nature and not for
his fame or achievements.
These poems take a different approach towards death because the poets
have contrasting attitudes towards the theme of death. 'Remember'
shows Rossetti preparing her lover for her death. In the first half of
the sonnet Rossetti is asking her lover to "Only remember me". She is
being very selfish in...

Level Playing Field was delighted to see sports clubs mark Autism Awareness Day on Thursday 2nd April. Everton FC turned Goodison Park Blue and the Celtic FC Foundation organised a golf day to raise funds to support the cause.
Autism affects around 700,000 people in the UK. According to the UK’s National Autistic Society (NAS), Autism is a lifelong developmental disability which can affect how people communicate and relate to others. It is categorised as a spectrum condition meaning while all people who have Autism share certain difficulties, it affects them in different ways.
Many people with Autism are passionate about sport but shy away from attending live sports events. According to a 2014 NAS survey of individuals, families and carers affected by Autism, 43% of those who don’t engage in sport cited their sensory difficulties as reasons for their non-participation.
Manchester City fan Edward Lake is one of several autistic football fans who has had difficulties at live sporting events. Edward is the son of ex Manchester City footballer Paul Lake.
“I get messages on social media saying, well if they can’t cope, they shouldn’t go to football,” Edwards mother Joanne Lake told CNN.
“Why can’t people with autism go to football? Why should it be different for them?”
“At the beginning, he really struggled with the sound,”
“He would wear ear defenders to help block out the noise. Sometimes we would have to take him out to the concourse to allow him to calm down”.
“But he’s become more aware as he has got older and last week he went to the game without ear defenders.
“He also finds visual stimulation difficult. Things like flash lights, floodlights, flares, they’re all difficult to deal with. Then you’ve got the announcement over the loudspeakers and the loud music.”

Majority of pupils and students in the Adaklu Kodzobi Circuit of the Adaklu District have resumed school on Monday but without the essential tool of nose masks.
The expected nose masks from the government is yet to arrive leaving the students to their fate on re-opening day.
A visit by the Ghana News Agency showed many students and their teachers not wearing masks to protect themselves against the vagaries of the pandemic.
Mr. Edward Dzidza, Head teacher of Adaklu Kodzobi D/A Basic Schools told the GNA that they could not turn the pupils away though they failed to wear masks.
He said apart from the fumigation of the school, the promise by the Adaklu District Directorate of Education to provide them with nose masks for use by both teachers and pupils did not materialise.
The Head teacher, therefore, appealed to parents and guardians to provide their wards with nose masks while they await the allocation from the government.
Mr. Selorm Prince Kpenu, Head teachers of Adaklu Have D/A Junior High School said but for a few of the form two students, all the others came to the school without nose masks.
He said they only had four rolls of tissue and a gallon of liquid soap but was hopeful that government would fulfil its promise of providing all Schools with nose masks and other safety items.
The story was the same at Adaklu Dzakpo and Adaklu Vodze D/A Basic Schools.
A teacher who spoke to the GNA on strict condition of anonymity said the likelihood of both teachers and students contracting the COVID-19 was very high since “we all travel from different locations before converging at the school.”
Students and pupils were seen cleaning, scrubbing the floors of the classrooms and desks for academic work to start.

The combined profits of Chinese brands grew 24% year-on-year (YoY) as the premium segment grew faster in 2018 than the overall market. The likes of Huawei, OPPO, and Vivo were quick to take advantage of the gap created within the premium segment as prices of Apple’s devices soared above US$1,000. This gave Chinese brands a headroom to increase prices of their 2018 flagships. This, in turn, drove up the average selling price (ASPs) for them.
Apple, on the other hand, had record revenues and ASPs in 2018. This is despite its unit shipments declining YoY for the first time ever in Q4 2018. Below are some of the key takeaways from the performance of Chinese brands: –
- Pricing Strategy: The ASP of Chinese smartphone brands increased by 14% YoY in 2018. Their 2018 flagships introduced some new features like punch-hole display, ultrasonic in-display fingerprint sensor, super-fast charging, and hardware-based AI capabilities to target the maturing smartphone user base. Additionally, Chinese smartphone brands were aggressive in terms of promotions including upgrade offers, trade-ins, and cashbacks.
- Market-specific competitive portfolio: Chinese brands have a good track record of sensing the market trend faster than the competitors. They are delivering world-class competitive products across different price bands, giving consumers enough alternatives for an upgrade. For example, Chinese brands are preferring Huawei Mate series over super expensive iPhones. Xiaomi and OPPO launched new smartphone brands Pocophone and Realme respectively, in the Indian market. The ability to leverage deeper access to the Shenzhen-based manufacturing and supply chain ecosystem is helping Chinese brands to plan their product portfolio much earlier. It also helps them to maintain profit margins across price segments.
- Global expansion and growth: Chinese brands are dominating the Chinese smartphone market. However, this is now saturated and driven by replacement users. For growth in 2019, Chinese OEMs are eyeing overseas markets. Huawei and HONOR expanded in markets such as Indonesia, Vietnam, Argentina and Peru with new launches priced higher than previous variants. OPPO entered the European market.
As the premium market expands in 2019, we believe Chinese brands will have a good chance of improving their profits. Targeting replacement buyers with flagships priced at the right levels will help them succeed.

HARRISBURG, Pa. (WHTM) -
Police in Harrisburg say a man was recently arrested in Texas for a murder case that dates back to 1981.
On Monday, U.S. Marshals arrested 78-year-old Joseph Miller and charged him with the murder of Thomas Waller. Harrisburg Police Chief Thomas Carter says facial recognition technology helped investigators identify Miller, who shot Waller in the head in a parking lot near 14th & Regina Streets.
Valerie Waller lost her brother when she was 32. She says her brother and Miller had a dispute inside a club and her brother left with a friend and was sitting in a car when Miller came out and shot him. Waller died later at the hospital.
Valerie says she got the call from her nephew saying that Miller had been captured. Valerie says it was frustrating over the years waiting for justice, but she is looking forward to representing her brother during the legal proceedings.
"It does not matter to me how old he is, he needs to be brought to justice and stand trial," she said.
Dauphin County District Attorney Ed Marsico says he is not sure how long it will take for Joseph Miller to be extradited back to the region.

The Hospital Chapel For All Faiths was funded by the League at a cost of £195,000 and was completed in 1998. The Service of Blessing was conducted by the Bishop of Kensington, The Rt. Revd. Michael Colclough, and was attended by many religious leaders and some 200 supporters. The latter consisted of members of the community, donors, and representatives of groups and organisations. A plaque was unveiled by Trust Chairman, Maggi Lyne, to mark the official opening.
A year later in 1999, the League decided to commemorate the year 2000 and launched an appeal for specific donations to provide a stained glass window in the Hospital Chapel. The design depicts many local scenes and embraces a theme of caring.
Each Sunday a short service of hymns and prayer is held at 4 p.m. by clergy of different denominations on a rota basis organised by the League’s Life President, Pamela Bryant MBE. The chapel is used by all faiths and local churches and clergy give their time voluntarily and are supported by the volunteer chaplaincy team.The Hospital Chaplain is Emma Hughes.

Wynonna Judd gave her fans quite a scare during her bizarre and scary-looking CMA performance with performer “Jelly Roll.”
From what it looked like, Wunonna was unable to stand on her own, and was clinging to Mr. Jelly Roll like her life depended on it.
Wynonna Judd clung to Jelly Roll during their performance Wednesday night at the Country Music Awards — and now her fans are worried something is wrong with her.
The country music legend hit the stage with JR to sing a duet of Jelly’s tune, “Need A Favor,” at the 2023 CMA Awards in Nashville.
At one point, Wynonna walked over to Jelly and grabbed his arm, giving off the impression she needed help to stay on her feet. It’s unclear if Wynonna was experiencing some type of health issue, but she was able to polish off the song and leave the stage on her own.
Still, her fans took to social media and voiced their concerns after watching her seemingly unsteady performance. Remember, Wynonna lost her iconic mother, Naomi, to suicide in 2022, so she’s had a rough time lately.
Wynonna saw all the talk about her performance, and blamed it on nerves.
She’s a very well-seasoned performer, that didn’t look like “nerves.” We’re sorry to see this. Wynonna recently lost her mom to suicide, so she’s likely struggling in many ways. Sometimes, even though we love what we do, it’s better to bow out gracefully, when we know we can’t perform safely.

Chance The Rapper Donates $1 Million To Support Hometown Chicago's Public Schools
But the Grammy Award-winning rapper wasn't pleased with the meeting and has made a decision to take matters into his own hands.
During a press conference at Wescott Elementary School in Chicago, the rapper said he plans to donate $1 million to Chicago public schools. While I'm frustrated and disappointed with the governor's inaction, that will not stop me from continuing to do all I can to support Chicago's most valuable resource: "its children", Chance said before handing over an oversize check to students.
Former First Lady Michelle Obama, a Chicago native, praised the rapper's donation to the city's school system.
A 23-year-old rapper is doing more for public schools in Chicago than the government of IL - at least that's how a considerable number of people feel in the Windy City.
"As a private citizen, as a parent and a product of C.P.S", Chance said, "I'm asking that you guys join the fight with me".
Chance raised the funds through ticket sales for his upcoming tour, with coordination from AMG, Live Nation and Ticketmaster.
Chance the Rapper has always been an activist and has made appeals to end Chicago's street violence.
Last-ditch attempt at support for Christian candidate Francois Fillon
Fillon's chances for France's two-round April-May presidential election have fallen since the corruption allegations emerged. Francois Fillon has given a defiant speech to supporters telling them not to "give up the fight" for the French presidency.
Deutsche Bank prepares 8 billion-euro capital increase
Numerous bank's investors see it as a necessary move despite the billions already plowed into the bank in the past seven years. Losses and mounting legal bills raised doubts about Deutsche Bank's financial strength, which intensified after the U.S.
Chelsea, West Ham supporters should find 'the right atmosphere' - Conte
Pedro has been directly involved in 10 goals in his last nine games in all competitions, scoring seven and setting up three. Diego Costa has scored 48 goals in 78 Premier League appearances. "I've seen one that should be in the top half".
"Gov. Rauner still won't commit to giving Chicago's kids a chance without caveats or ultimatums", the rapper said.
Chance also mentioned receiving a text earlier in the day from Common, another Grammy-winning rapper from Chicago's South Side, who has pledged his support of CPS alongside Chance.
Following a series of "unsuccessful" conversations with Gov. Bruce Rauner, Bennett announced Monday that he's donating $1 million to CPS as the underfunded district continues to languish amid the state's ongoing budget impasse. Chance and the governor were meant to talk about fixing the state's school systems but when Bennett left the meeting with Rauner on Friday (March 3), he was unimpressed with the "vague answers" the governor gave him.
Chicago school officials are also suing the state because they feel the way the state allocates funds to the urban school district is discriminatory.
In addition to the $1 million donation, Chance plans to give out an additional $10,000 donation to select local schools. Chance is, I have long maintained, acanny political operator, despite his performance of relative naïveté.
"The governor could right now figure out how to grab a revenue stream and fully fund a more equitable funding school funding for all schools in IL, which is kind of his job", David Gates said.

Last week, the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation (RWJF) and The Alliance for Health Reform sponsored a briefing to discuss oral health care in the United States, particularly for children and other vulnerable populations.
The discussion was co-moderated by David Krol, MD, MPH, FAAP, RWJF Human Capital Portfolio team director and senior program officer. “Oral health is an integral part of overall health,” he said. It faces the same challenges as overall health care, including “racial, ethnic, geographic disparities in disease and access to care, financing challenges, issues of determining and maintaining quality of care, and workforce controversies.” Krol said he would like to see “all conversations on health and health care… naturally include oral health.”
In 2009, preventable dental conditions accounted for more than 830,000 emergency department visits nationwide, Julie Stitzel, MA, of the Pew Center on the States’ Children’s Dental Campaign told the audience. Children were the patients for 50,000 of those visits. “There’s a real opportunity for states to save money because these visits, again, are totally preventable,” she said. “We know that getting treated in an emergency room is much more costly than the care delivered in a dental office, and states are bearing a significant share of these expenses through Medicaid and other public programs.”
How do nurse faculty members spend their time? How do they assess key aspects of their work-life?
In 2010 the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation’s Evaluating Innovations in Nursing Education program (EIN) conducted a nationwide survey of full-time nurse faculty focusing on their employment characteristics, workloads and attitudes toward work-life. More than 3,000 respondents completed the survey, answering questions about more than 60 characteristics of work-life.
Now, using an online tool—the Nurse Faculty Query (NuFAQs)—you can search the survey results. The interactive tool allows you to customize the findings to suit your interests in faculty with particular backgrounds or rank, in specific settings or circumstances.

For decades, the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) has employed experts in sampling and statistical analyses in its attempt to monitor the registered nurse workforce through the National Sample Survey of Registered Nurses (NSSRN). Though the NSSRN has been used widely to estimate the supply and demand of registered nurses nationwide, it is often criticized in that states appear to be underrepresented.
In New Jersey for example, it was reported that less than 1 percent of our registered nurses participated in the 2008 NSSRN. To address New Jersey’s issue of monitoring the nurse workforce, the New Jersey Collaborating Center for Nursing (NJCCN) has instituted a number of initiatives, including three surveys developed by the Forum of State Nursing Workforce Centers. These surveys assess New Jersey’s supply and demand of nurses, and the educational capacity of our nursing programs.
Even before the release of the Institute of Medicine (IOM) report, The Future of Nursing: Leading Change, Advancing Health, which recommends an infrastructure for collection and analysis of workforce data, NJCCN was collecting data on the educational capacity (registered nurse and licensed practical nurse) of all nursing programs statewide.
By Patricia Moulton, PhD, executive director, North Dakota Center for Nursing and co-lead, North Dakota Action Coalition
In 2010, the Institute of Medicine (IOM) issued a groundbreaking report on the future of nursing that identifies as one of its key messages the need for improved data collection and an enhanced information infrastructure as requirements for effective workforce planning and policy-making.
The report, called The Future of Nursing: Leading Change, Advancing Health, recognizes that data “on the numbers and types of health professionals currently employed, where they are employed and in what roles” is imperative to the establishment of accurate workforce projection models. Such models are necessary to inform policy-makers in their aim to ensure effective workforce planning as well as to make needed changes in nursing practice and education to meet population needs.
Nurse leaders and researchers are working toward that goal.
In 2008, before the IOM released its report on the future of nursing, the Forum of State Nursing Workforce Centers embarked on a multi-year process to develop minimum data sets for the collection of nursing education, supply and demand data across the 34 nursing workforce centers. The minimum data sets were finalized in 2009 and are available at the forum’s website.
For the project, the forum’s research committee recently surveyed the 34 current nursing workforce centers to determine how many have implemented the minimum data sets.
Robert Wood Johnson Foundation Interdisciplinary Nursing Quality Research Initiative (INQRI) grantee Susan Letvak, PhD, RN, recently spoke to the New York Times about her research on nurses with musculoskeletal pain and depression.
The study results were published in the February issue of the American Journal of Nursing. Letvak and her team found that nurses experience depressive symptoms at a rate twice as high—18 percent—as the general public. The researchers specifically addressed depression in nurses and focused on treatment options in, “Depression in Hospital-Employed Nurses,” published in the May/June issue of the journal Clinical Nurse Specialist.
“The only way to ensure the best quality for our patients is to have an expert staff of qualified nurses who are healthy enough to offer that kind of care,” Letvak told the New York Times. “We can’t ignore nurses’ health anymore.”
In a month when national employment data were largely unchanged, the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics reports that the health care industry added nearly 33,000 jobs in May, continuing as a strong and growing field. Over the year, health care employment has risen by 340,000 jobs.
Employment in ambulatory care services accounted for the majority of the new jobs in the industry (23,000). That growth was seen mostly in physicians’ offices (9,900), home care services (6,900) and outpatient care centers (4,600).
Demand for health care employees remains strong. Nurse.com reports that data from Wanted Analytics finds that employers posted more than 620,000 online job ads for health care careers in May, an increase of 5 percent from a year prior.
The Robert Wood Johnson Foundation (RWJF), NPR and the Harvard School of Public Health commissioned a poll to better understand Americans’ experiences and attitudes related to the cost and quality of their medical care. Released on May 21st, Sick in America found that many Americans who experienced a serious illness or injury in the past 12 months are concerned about the financial costs of medical care, and struggle to ensure that their care is appropriate. Nearly nine in ten respondents (87 percent) think the cost of care is a serious problem for the country.
In addition to surveying the public, the poll examined sick Americans’ experiences and perceptions. “Sick Americans” (27 percent of adults surveyed) were defined as those who said they had a serious illness, medical condition, injury, or disability requiring a lot of medical care or who had been hospitalized overnight in the past 12 months. A quarter of sick Americans said a doctor, nurse, or other health professional did not provide all the needed information about their treatment or prescriptions – or they had to see multiple medical professionals, and no single doctor understood or kept track of all the different aspects of their medical issues and treatments (23 percent). Three in 10 hospitalized Americans said there was poor communication among the doctors, nurses, and other health care professionals involved in their care.
In addition, 34 percent of patients who were hospitalized for at least one night in the past year said “nurses weren’t available when needed or didn't respond quickly to requests for help.”
To learn more, NPR published a call-out to nurses on its Facebook page. It was a non-scientific way to gather information, NPR notes, but the response from nurses was significant. “We received hundreds of responses and read them all: piles of stories about nurses feeling overworked, getting no breaks, no lunches and barely enough time to go to the bathroom. Even worse, many nurses say breaks and lunchtimes are figured into their salaries and deducted, whether they take them or not,” NPR reported on Morning Edition.
The poll also found that consumers see a shortage of nurses and physicians as one of the problems with the quality of health care in the country today. Of the one-third of total respondents who were asked about major reasons for quality problem, 35 percent identified “not enough doctors or nurses in hospitals or medical offices” as a major problem.
Have you signed up to receive Sharing Nursing’s Knowledge? The monthly Robert Wood Johnson Foundation (RWJF) e-newsletter will keep you up to date on the latest nursing news, research and trends. Here are descriptions of some of the stories in the March issue:
New Careers in Nursing scholar Waheeda Siddiqui, who will graduate this fall from an accelerated degree nursing program, has overcome enormous odds to follow in her mother’s footsteps as a nurse. Born in Afghanistan, her family escaped the oppressive clutch of the Taliban and Siddiqui survived a trying childhood in a refugee camp in Pakistan before her family fled to the United States. She achieved academic success at her U.S. high school and a major university before a New Careers in Nursing scholarship allowed her to enroll in nursing school.
Read about RWJF’s new initiatives to promote and strengthen nursing, as part of the Foundation’s ongoing commitment to ensuring that nurses can contribute as full partners in a reformed health care system. The recently launched initiatives focus on public health nursing, academic progression, primary care and implementing recommendations from the Institute of Medicine’s Future of Nursing report.
Recent research shows that nurses are at risk for injuries, illnesses and violence on the job. There have been improvements in workplace conditions—like greater access to patient lifting and transfer devices, more use of safe needle devices, and better reporting of workplace violence—but experts say more education and awareness is needed.
In a less than hospitable climate for nurse-led changes to health and health care, leaders of the Georgia Action Coalition—now officially known as the Georgia Nursing Leadership Coalition—have made quick and measurable progress in advancing the recommendations of the Future of Nursing report.
The newsletter’s “In the Media” column, reprinted on this blog, looks at depictions of fictional nurses in movies, books and television. Take a look, leave a comment, and tell us who your favorite fictional nurse is!
By David Krol, MD, MPH, FAAP, Robert Wood Johnson Foundation Human Capital Portfolio Team Director and Senior Program Officer
For many Americans, a visit to the dentist is a rarity—not by choice, but because their health plans don’t cover dental care, they can’t afford it, or because there is no dentist anywhere near where they live or work. If you’re on Medicare, you know that dental isn’t covered. If you’re part of the VA system, you know that dental benefits are treated differently. If you’re an adult on Medicaid or serve adult patients who are on Medicaid, you know the chances are slim that there’s great coverage for dental care, unless you are lucky to be in a state that still covers it. Why does this happen and what can result?
A study recently released by the Pew Center on the States offers startling data on the scope of the problem and its consequences. In 2009, some 830,000 Americans visited an emergency department for a preventable dental condition. It should be obvious that the emergency department isn’t the best place to seek dental care. The same year, 56 percent of Medicaid-enrolled children got no dental care whatsoever, not even a routine exam. That’s no care even with insurance for it!
Those numbers are alarming for many reasons, but mostly because they reveal a significant public health challenge confronting the nation: Many Americans simply aren’t getting the oral care they need, at any age, including the basic preventive services and education that can detect oral disease in early stages. They are putting their health at risk, and increasing the strain on an already-overwhelmed health care system.
It's Spring and Allergy Season is Upon Us. Is our Primary Care Workforce Ready to Meet Patient Needs?
By Nancy Fishman, BSN, MPH and Maryjoan Ladden, PhD, RN, FAAN. Fishman and Ladden are senior program offers at the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation
Spring is blooming all around us here in central New Jersey and that means nice weather, flowers and a constant search for allergy solutions! For those of us on the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation (RWJF) Human Capital team, this brings up several questions about how to use the primary care workforce more creatively. In this scenario, who in the primary care office could help us with our common allergy symptoms? How would we feel if we went in for a visit and didn’t see a health professional but were instead counseled about common over-the-counter treatments by the medical assistant according to standard protocol?
These are questions that seem practical and every day, but tie back to some basic questions about the primary care workforce and how we could be more creative in using all members of that workforce to improve patient access to care and the value of that care.
At the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, we are all aware of the shortage of primary care providers – but short of producing a large number of physicians, nurse practitioners and physician assistants this instant – we need to get creative with what we have.
To that end, we are thrilled to be launching a new program to identify those practices that are already creatively using their whole office teams in new ways. This program “The Primary Care Team: Learning from Effective Ambulatory Practices” (LEAP) will first identify and then study sites that have succeeded in providing high quality health care and involving all staff in new and creative ways.
We believe that studying these sites will provide us with insights that we can share with other practices that would like to make changes.

Ryan Reynolds has told Empire that he’s insistent on Deadpool‘s habit of breaking of the fourth wall to carry over from the comics to the big screen. That means, in effect, that Deadpool/Wade Wilson will sometimes address the audience directly, as with Ferris Bueller, say, or the character of Paul in Funny Games. Other forms of metahumour have cropped up in the Deadpool comics, with him occasionally making explicit reference to his being a Marvel comics character. I’ll give you a handful of examples after the break.
Deadpool’s first metareference apparently came in the fourth issue of his ongoing series. Writer Joe Kelly not only had Deapool ‘sing’ the theme tune to the Hulk TV show, in reference to a plot development involving the jolly green one, he also had the characters give a plot recap as though directly to the reader. When future issues needed recaps they were dressed up in all manner of ways, from interviews to stand up comedy monologues.
Coming back from the dead in one plotline, Deadpool was given captions that read ‘Do I still think in little yellow boxes?’ and ‘I missed you little yellow boxes! What fun we shall have together’. I wouldn’t be surprised to see a similar reference to voice over in the movie.
During Christopher Priest’s run as a writer on the series, Deadpool virtually adopted a meta-mantra: ‘None of this is really happening. There is a man. With a typewriter. This is all part of his crazy imagination.’
For my money, Grant Morrison’s run on the Animal Man comics not only used these same devices first (though he in turn was inspired by Bryan Talbot’s work – and outside of comics, of course, the device is ages old, becoming very popular in theatre almost 200 years ago) he used them to a better end. I wouldn’t want to spoil it for you, but some of the Animal Man stories, particularly The Coyote Gospel, are amongst my very favourite comic books of all time and absolutely worth hunting down.
My pocket comic book expert, Rich Johnston of Bleeding Cool, tells me that Joe Kelly was likely to have been more influenced by John Byrne’s work on She Hulk, a series that coincided with my time working in a comic shop and so which I know quite well. I can definitely see the similarities.
I’m not, at heart, a big fan of breaking the fourth wall. This practice is typically assumed to be the dismantling of a barrier between the audience and the movie, though I’d argue that it is simply replacing on vague barrier with a blockier one.
Screenwriter Ken Levine found that Nicholas Mayer pulled a postmodern trick with the subtitles when filming his screenplay Volunteers. Levine and his co-writer David Isaac have argued that this one change alone ‘destroyed the movie’. You can see the scene and read Levine’s complaint on his blog. One good example, I think, of the risks the Deadpool movie will run.
Knowing that the film is going to be ‘playful’ in this way could be an indication of what directors they might be pursuing for the gig. Any guesses? From what I know about Zombieland, Ruben Fleischer seems like a hot pick.Cool Posts From Around the Web:

Polyurethane Market Growth & Trends
The global polyurethane market size is expected to reach USD 94.59 billion by 2028, registering a CAGR of 3.8% over the forecast period, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. Increasing demand for lightweight and high-performance composites from the automotive industry is driving the growth of the market. Polyurethane (PU) is widely used in automotive applications, such as seating, instrument panels, exterior panels, engine encapsulation, and cables & wires, as an alternative to metals. The utilization of Thermoplastic Polyurethane (TPU) in auto components can drastically decrease the overall weight of automobiles, which, in turn, limits fuel consumption.
Growing Corporate Average Fuel Economy (CAFE) has forced automobile manufacturers to seek innovative ways to limit fuel consumption. The low weight of vehicles is a crucial factor in these regulations due to the inherent correlation between mass and fuel consumption. Also, the reduction in mass at unhinged points facilitates reduction in noise & vibration and smoothens the ride. Auto manufacturers, for enhancing the performance of automobiles and following the trend of lightweight vehicles, are mainly focusing on auto components, which are manufactured from various types of plastics.
For improving fuel efficiency in vehicles, manufacturers have shifted toward using plastics in automotive components, such as instrument panels, exterior panels, automotive interiors, and engine cabins. This trend, coupled with growing automotive production, is expected to further drive the demand for polyurethanes in automotive applications, such as exterior body panels, engine encapsulation, and interior panels.
However, the Covid-19 outbreak has immensely affected the production of automobiles and disrupted the value chain of the automotive industry. Slowdown or halt in manufacturing activities and weak consumer sentiments are expected to affect the product demand in automotive applications.
The electronics & appliances application segment is anticipated to progress at a substantial growth rate over the forecast period. Polyurethane is used in the manufacturing of printed circuit boards, electronic housings, protective covers, and others. It offers lower unit costs and faster production while providing excellent general performance in electronic devices. Increasing importance for encapsulation of electronic components, such as circuits and sensors, is a major factor driving the product demand in electronics & appliances.

i am part of a group show at gallery 1988 SF. i have three pieces, but did not have a chance to take record of one of them due to time restraints. forgive me, for the painting of the boy, you'll have to resort to looking at the decent, but somewhat blurry picture at the listings site.
i do have record of the other two, however; here they are:
waiting and waiting, 14 x 17", mixed media on paper

How did they manage to make an electric motor and battery pack turn into a "negligible weight increase"???
MB should stick to diesel. Hybrids are a silly, inelegant band-aid.

Wouldn't a S320 Bluetech actually make more sense? Well, they have it in the EU, but it's mileage, combined cycle, is better and it costs less. I'd bet the actual manufacturing cost is significantly less on the diesel, and now that diesel is less expensive than 87 octane, $.43/gallon where I live, the hybrid just doesn't make much sense.
If you mostly did city driving, or it was a plugin, then maybe. But I'm a diesel fan anyway, so maybe I'm biased.

Michael Crichton was born in Chicago, Illinois, but grew up in Roslyn, New York. His father was a journalist and encouraged him to write and to type. Michael gave up studying English at Harvard University, having become disillusioned with the teaching standards–the final straw came when he submitted an essay by George Orwell that was given a “B.”
After giving up English and spending a year in Europe, Michael returned to Boston, Massachusetts, and attended Harvard Medical School to train as a doctor.
During his medical-student days, he wrote novels secretly. One of them, “A Case of Need,” written under the pseudonym Jeffery Hudson, contained references to people at Harvard Medical School, but he couldn’t hide his identity when the novel won an award that had to be collected in person. After giving up medicine, Michael moved to Hollywood, California, in the early 1970s and began directing movies based on his books,
Crichton, who died in Los Angeles on November 4, 2008, was best known as the author of Jurassic Park and the creator of ER. His most recent novel, Next, about genetics and law, was published in December 2006.
He was a postdoctoral fellow at the Salk Institute for Biological Studies, researching public policy with Jacob Bronowski. He taught courses in anthropology at Cambridge University and writing at MIT.
Crichton’s 2004 bestseller, State of Fear, utilized a fictional storyline and defined facts that de-bunked the current theories espousing manmade global warming. The book was widely popular but not well received by the industries celebrities.
Crichton’s interest in computer modeling went back forty years. His multiple-discriminant analysis of Egyptian crania, carried out on an IBM 7090 computer at Harvard, was published in the Papers of the Peabody Museum in 1966. His technical publications included a study of host factors in pituitary chromophobe adenoma, in metabolism, and an essay on medical obfuscation in the New England Journal of Medicine.
Crichton’s first bestseller, The Andromeda Strain, was published while he was still a medical student and may now be coming to fruition through the MRSA (Methicillin-resistant Staphlococcus Aureus) bacteria now plaguing the nation. He later worked full time on film and writing. One of the most popular writers in the world, his books have been translated into thirty-six languages, and thirteen have been made into films.
He had a lifelong interest in computers. His feature film Westworld was the first to employ computer-generated special effects back in 1973. Crichton’s pioneering use of computer programs for film production earned him a Technical Achievement Academy Award in 1995.
Crichton won an Emmy, a Peabody, and a Writer’s Guild of America Award for ER.
In 2002, a newly discovered ankylosaur was named for him: Crichtonsaurus bohlini. He had a daughter, Taylor, and lived in Los Angeles. Crichton remarried in 2005.
Editors Note: I first read The Andromeda Strain while in college at IUPU in the late 70s. Then while on my way to the US Virgin Islands in the early 90s I had the pleasure of reading Jurassic Park. Although I never had the chance to meet Michael Crichton in person I felt I knew him through his writings. He was ahead of his time and a person who could not be corrupted by current trends or massive propaganda campaigns. He will be sorely missed in the world of literature.
