Bernadette Kelly
A second generation Teamster and native New Yorker, Bernadette Kelly has been a fearless advocate for workers, families, women and immigrants for decades. She learned about unions at a young age from her father, a shop steward and 20-year member of Teamster Local 831.
While a student at Manhattan College, Bernadette conducted her first organizing campaign, helping the school's security guards gain union representation. That experience, along with her studies, ignited a passion for social justice and set her on a lifetime path of advocacy in pursuit of affordable, accessible education for all. In the ensuing years, her passion has not abated; Bernadette conducts union trainings and serves on her local PTA board.
After graduation, Bernadette signed on as an organizer for Teamsters Local Union 840. In 1996, after successfully organizing warehouses and nursing homes, she was elected Recording Secretary. A few years later, she joined the staff of the International Brotherhood of Teamsters as an organizer, traveling the country to help apple pickers, public sector workers, and airline employees secure the benefits of union membership and the protections of a Teamster contract. She was later promoted to the position of International Representative.
Bernadette currently serves as the Recording Secretary of Teamsters Local 210 and works closely with Teamsters Joint Council 16 and its President, George Miranda. She has assisted countless Teamster locals with organizing drives, safety initiatives, strategic campaigns, and public policy strategies.
While her union work has involved diverse industries and struggles, she has always focused her efforts on a single objective: building up working families by empowering members and helping them take their union representation to a higher level. Among her proudest accomplishments are winning a new contract for locked-out Sotheby's art handlers, spearheading a safety campaign at Coca Cola and working with the New York City Carriage drivers to defend their industry and livelihoods.
She is currently the point person for the Transform Don't Trash campaign, a multi-year effort that is leading to the reform of New York City's private sanitation industry.
Bernadette credits her commitment to the union to her family, including her husband Noel, a member of Theatrical Teamsters Local 817. They reside in Douglaston, Queens, where she is an active member of the Jefferson Democratic Club. She and Noel are proud parents to Thomas, Rowan and John.

The Truth About The Worst Cooks In America
Discovery Inc. / Facebook
By Nickolaus Hines/Updated: Jan. 31, 2023 4:00 pm EST
It's fun to watch people who are at the top of their profession compete in challenges. That's why there are so many competition shows on TV these days. But it's also fun to watch people who are really bad at something try their hand at said task. Case in point: the Food Network show Worst Cooks in America.
The premise is simple: two professional chefs pick teams out of a pool of contestants who are truly awful in the kitchen. Everyone goes through a quick training session before being put to the test in various cooking competitions. The worst cooks are eliminated until the last person standing is named the best of the worst and receives a cash prize. The chefs in charge — which have included Anne Burrell, Bobby Flay, Beau MacMillan, Robert Irvine, Rachael Ray, Tyler Florence, and Alex Guarnaschelli — get the satisfaction of knowing they made at least one person a better home cook.
Worst Cooks in America has the kind of longevity that most competition shows can only dream of. It's lasted a full 20 seasons so far and has inspired one spin-off. It's also made Food Network history by featuring the first openly transgender woman on the network. Here's what else you need to know before getting too deep in the back catalog of all things Worst Cooks in America.
Worst Cooks in America contestants are locked in a house together
Food Network / Facebook
Once the contestants (or recruits, as they're called on the show) are selected, they're isolated from the world for up to four weeks. Former contestant Michael Haydin told the News Times in 2013 that he had to take time off from work after he was selected for the fourth season. Then, "all the contestants were sequestered in a house in Brooklyn," Haydin said. "We weren't allowed any contact with the outside world — no cellphones, no internet, no TV, and definitely no cookbooks."
In that way, it's not unlike other reality TV competitions. Though, it's debatable exactly how much the outside world could help someone who never learned basic kitchen skills while living in the outside world. Yet unlike some other shows famous for drama between contestants, there aren't reports of steamy behind-the-scenes romances or rivalries. In fact, it seems like everyone has gotten along just fine despite being in competition for the same $25,000 prize. Anna Altomari, a contestant in 2011, told the OC Register that, "There was no drama in our house." Instead, everyone became friends and chatted about their cooking skills (or lack thereof).
The worst kitchen fails make people questions whether the show is real
Food Network / YouTube
There's a good chance that even the worst cook you know is nowhere close to as bad as the contestants who make it on Worst Cooks in America. It's enough to make some viewers question the veracity of the entire program. People on Reddit's r/foodnetwork suspect some of the contestants may be actors, simply pretending to be utterly clueless. One person on Reddit noted that the "show seems to have some of the dumbest, most inept people."
One incident seemed to especially push people toward thinking it's all fake: the moment when a contestant tried to use the dull side of a knife to cut food. The point of the initial boot camp section is to teach the basics, and it seems like the most simple of simple knife skills, like using the sharp part of the blade, would be included in that. Training or not, as another Reddit user pointed out, "nobody is so inept in the kitchen that they use a knife upside down."
Others questioned the veracity due to the celebrity seasons. The Jersey Shore's Mike "The Situation" Sorrentino, for example, was on Worst Cooks in America despite being known for his Sunday dinners he cooked up for the Jersey Shore house. Sorrentino, for his part, told Food Network before the season that he isn't the best or the worst chef, but is simply "not bad" when it comes to basic Italian food.
Worst Cooks in America contestants are by many accounts, actually that bad
Casual viewers posting on sites like Reddit aren't the only ones with doubts. Contestant interviews with local newspapers and publications frequently return to the issue of if a person can really be that bad. The answer ... is yes.
In 2015, former contestant Holgie Forrester, who was 67 at the time, told the Desert Sun that she once tried and failed to deep fry a grilled cheese sandwich for a boyfriend that left her. She added that she never learned to cook because she thought it was a waste of time. Haydin, from the fourth season, told the New Times that he "would burn grilled cheese and undercook chicken," and that whatever he tries to cook "either comes out pink or black." When talking about her experience prior to appearing on the show in 2011, Altomari told the OC Register that she never learned to cook because she lived at home with her mom, and that "growing up in an Italian family, your mom spoils you."
Altomari also shed some insight on how bad cooks are verified as being awful from the start: "They have you answer questions in different ways," she told the paper. "It was a process. It was nonstop. You fill out paperwork, fill out questions. It was an ongoing thing making sure that you are really truly who you are."
Anne Burrell said the contestants mistakes range from cringe worthy to dangerous
The kitchen can be a dangerous place for anyone, but especially for people who aren't familiar with the ins and outs of everything needed to cook a meal. It's even more dangerous when those people are thrown into a high-pressure competition environment where they're required to use sharp knives and fire. In one series of the show's highlights, a contestant who works as a certified safety inspector spotted hazards all around him like raised surfaces, open flames, and plenty of people who don't really know what they're doing.
Burrell, who has seen the full range of bad cooks over the past 20 seasons, has seen it all. She told PopSugar in 2013 that the contestants need to learn everything, which can lead to some funny situations before they transform into semi-respectable cooks. It can also lead to some unsafe situations.
"Yeah, some things are cringe-worthy," Burrell told PopSugar. "I cringe when people are dangerous; when I'm scared they're going to hurt themselves. That's when I get nervous. Other things they do to food — instead of [being] cringe-worthy, it's more eye-rolling. There are definitely some silly situations."
Worst Cooks in America boot camp is a culinary school crash course
While the competition portion of Worst Cooks in America typically gets the most attention for the high pressure fails, the boot camp where the contestants learn is where the real magic happens. Here, the chefs teach their groups of contestants how to use kitchen tools and which flavors go together. In an episode from the first season, for example, Burrell teaches the contestants everything they need to know about how to make a Tuscan soup, from the difference between a clove and a bulb of garlic to the proper way to devein a shrimp.
In an interview with People in 2019, Burrell called the boot camp "a crash culinary school course." A season 15 contestant named Brittany Carel told the Miami New Times that the contestants start boot camp at dawn every day to learn and face spontaneous challenges.
"We really put the recruits through the wringer," Burrell told People. "We ask a lot of them and I tell people on the first day, whether you're here for a little bit of time or you're here all the way to the end, being on this show will change your life. If you leave boot camp without having learned anything it means you didn't want to. I don't think one recruit in the 15 seasons that we've done can say that they left without learning anything."
The celebrity version of Worst Cooks in America is for charity

For the average contestant, the possibility of winning the $25,000 prize for being the best worst cook in America looms at the end of every season. Celebrities, however, do not have the incentive of personal gain (other than cooking skills learned and publicity, of course). Instead, the winning celebrity contestant gets to donate money to a charity of their choice. In the first two celebrity seasons, that amount was $50,000, while every celebrity season after concluded with a $25,000 donation.
Jenni "JWoww" Farley won the first celebrity season and chose to donate the $50,000 to Pick Your Paw Animal Rescue. She told Food Network that once the money was deposited she planned to "have a big-a** dog party at my house — or wherever I can." Loni Love, who won the second celebrity edition, donated the $50,000 to the American Red Cross. La Toya Jackson donated her winnings to Race to Erase MS, and Tonya Harding donated the money to St. Jude Children's Research Hospital. In the latest celebrity season, former Bachelorette contestant Wells Adams won and donated the $25,000 to the Nashville Humane Association.
Worst Cooks in America celebrity contestants range from Playboy models to stars of The Office

Thousands of people put their names in the mix to be contestants in the regular seasons. The range of personalities was just as wide when it came to the celebrities chosen for the six celebrity editions. Many are actors — Oscar Nunez, who plays Oscar in The Office, for example, as well as stars like Nolan Gould from Modern Family and Catherine Bach from The Dukes of Hazzard. Reality TV stars are regular contestants as well, like Chris Soules from The Bachelor and Sonja Morgan from The Real Housewives of New York City.
Then there are the celebrities who come from more out there lines of fame. Harding, for example, was famous for her conflict with Nancy Kerrigan during the 1992 winter Olympics long before becoming a reality TV star. Gossip blogger Perez Hilton joined for the third celebrity season. In the first celebrity season, the show brought on Kendra Wilkinson, who was a Playboy model and one of Hugh Heffner's girlfriends before she reached more mainstream fame on the E! show The Girls Next Door.
Worst Cooks in America was a major hit from the start, but has lost viewers
Any show that runs for 20 straight seasons is clearly doing something right to bring the people in and keep them there. For Worst Cooks in America, the audience was present from the start. According to Cinema Blend, the premiere of the first season of Worst Cooks in America in 2010 helped draw Food Network's highest-rated and most-watched Sunday night with Super Chef Battle: An Iron Chef America Event and Worst Cooks in America bringing in an average of 3.7 million viewers. Clearly, people like watching cooking competitions.
It proved harder to sustain that high viewership, however. According to Nielsen data provided to The Daily Meal, the show averaged 927,000 viewers between the ages of 18 and 49 in 2010. Still, that's nothing to scoff at. For comparison, Guy Fieri's Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives averaged 675,000 viewers in 2010. Over the years, the number of people who watch Worst Cooks in America has waxed and waned in popularity, with season premieres drawing the biggest audiences. Viewership numbers from ShowBuzzDaily show that the 2015 premiere had more than 2 million viewers, while the premiere in the second celebrity season in 2016 drew more than 1.1 million viewers.
The show featured the first openly trans woman on the Food Network
Season 20 of Worst Cooks in America was the most diverse yet and featured Domaine Javier, the first openly transgender woman in Food Network's history.
Javier didn't win the season — the top spot went to Ariel Robinson — but shared her experience on the show in a July 2020 Instagram post. "The honor of becoming the first-ever openly transgender woman in Food Network's history is extremely soul-stirring," Javier said. "Somewhere, a 'lost' person tuned-in to Food Network, caught a glimpse of me, & told herself, 'I am who I am, and it's OKAY.' I can rest easy knowing I've made such impact. An impact significant enough for you to embrace my quirkiness & support me through the good & bad. Nothing goes unnoticed. I hope I made y'all proud."
While her casting was a first for Food Network, it wasn't Javier's first time onscreen or her first time making history. According to her IMDB page, Javier has five associates degrees, a bachelors, and masters degree in nursing. Javier also became the first transgender woman in the U.S. to be named a homecoming queen in 2010. The following year, she was featured on MTV's True Life and later found time to squeeze in small theater and TV roles in between her studies.
Worst Cooks in America inspired a baking spinoff
Duff Goldman / Twitter
In 2016, Food Network decided to try and expand the Worst Cooks in America series with Worst Bakers in America. The first hosts were celebrity pastry chef Duff Goldman and TV chef Lorraine Pascale, and the concept was pretty much the same as the original, just with a more narrow focus. The contestants still went through a boot camp, but it focused on sweet and savory baked goods like sugar cookies and wedding cake decorations. Like in the original, winners receive a grand prize of $25,000.
Worst Bakers in America didn't have the same sticking power as Worst Cooks in America, however. The second season didn't come until 2019, and was hosted by Pascale and Jason Smith, who had previously competed in Food Network shows like Holiday Baking Championship and Food Network Star. The latest season forced contestants to blind taste test confections, guess baking ingredients based on touch alone, and decorate with a strict time limit, according to a press release. The competition included making everything from pâte à choux to designing 3-D animal cakes.

When I discovered the Newmarket Horseshoe Trail it seemed the perfect way of exploring a town I had never visited before.
As soon as I arrived in Newmarket, my first stop was the tourist information Centre (TIC). I'm a big fan of TIC's and always seek them out if a town has one!
As well as being fantastic for getting information about a place, you also sometimes speak to people with insider knowledge who can supplement the array of leaflets you find yourself collecting!
Whilst browsing, I found a copy of the Newmarket Horseshoe Trail comprising of 27 places of interest dotted around the town centre – perfect!……so off I went!
The Newmarket Horseshoe Trail starts at Palace House, which is home to the fantastic National Horseracing Museum a stunning building which I found really eye-catching! A great place to start.
Palace House (1671) built for King Charles II. Although later additions were made some of the original palace is still there.
The horseshoe trail directs you across the road where you will find what are reputed to be the oldest racing stables in the world originally constructed in 1670's and now part of the museum.
Following the trail further along the road you will discover lots of landmarks with famous residents from years gone by including the house of Nell Gwynne, Charles II mistress.
As you turn into the high street you walk past the Rutland Arms Hotel built around 1815. The trail makes mention of that travelers would stay for the night, change horses then travel on to Norwich or London.
The clock tower can be seen from the high street and commemorates Queen Victoria's Diamond Jubilee in 1887. Its a great landmark in the town, especially for people like me who have a terrible sense of direction! I found it really helped in finding my way when walking around!
Wine Merchants since 1780, this shop front has traditional metalwork around its windows and a great display of wine inside!
Whilst following the trail there are lots of opportunities to pop into the many shops along the high street or to take a slight detour if you find something of interest like this….
Run by the 5th generation and dating back to 1880 Powters is perhaps the oldest family run business in Newmarket.
And of course whilst doing the trail you will come across a statue of a horse or two like this one outside the Jockey Club Rooms in the High Street.
The horseshoe trail has some great info about the places you will see on your journey and there are lots of shops to browse and places you can stop for a bite to eat whilst walking around the town. As the trail is in the centre of town you can do as much or as little as you like.
Whilst in Newmarket I also had a brief look around the National Horseracing Museum which is an amazing place and one I recommend if you have the opportunity to visit.
The Tourist Information Centre is at the entrance to the Guineas shopping centre (near the bus stops) If you are thinking of planning your own trip Discover Newmarket has some great information.
I had a great afternoon exploring the town of Newmarket and really enjoyed my first visit. I will definitely be going back, when the warmer weather arrives and plan to spend the whole day there next time!

The Gentlemen's Course is for Ladies too – A Lesson in Etiquette and Human Rights Go Hand-in-Hand
Thursday, 31. May 2018 18:59
TAMPA, Fla., May 31, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- On Saturday the 26th of May, Mr. Christopher King, grandson of late B.B. King and founder of the Gentlemen's Course, brought lessons in etiquette and the materials of United for Human Rights to 17 young ladies at King's Forrest Recreational Center in Tampa. United for Human Rights (UHR) is sponsored by the Church of Scientology which opened a Florida center headquarters for UHR in downtown Clearwater in 2015. Mr. King's Gentlemen's Course is also taught at the UHR Florida headquarters.
As the grandson of a Blues Legend, Mr. King had a hard act to follow. But as Mr. King said, "It wasn't music that I learned from my grandfather, it was his love of helping others." Mr. King imbued that love in the Gentlemen's Course as a way to instill humanitarian values in the young and protect them from the all-too prevalent human trafficking in our current society. Mr. King has delivered his co-ed program, educating over 1,300 youth since he started in 2015 on manners, appearance and human rights.
In his one-hour seminar on the 26th of May, Mr. King taught the young girls why it is important to not "post a picture on Instagram that could open up luring you into the trafficker's lair." At the same time, Mr. King shared what qualities to look for in a man, not to settle for less, and men will "treat you with respect."
He then used the materials from UHR (and its affiliate Youth for Human Rights – YHR) which cover the 30 articles of the United Nations' Universal Declaration of Human Rights. The Church of Scientology makes these materials available at no cost to millions around the world.
United for Human Rights and Youth for Human Rights
Youth for Human Rights, founded in 2001 by Dr. Mary Shuttleworth, is a non-profit, non-religious, educational program dedicated to teaching youth their human rights, specifically the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, to inspire them to become advocates for peace and tolerance. The United for Human Rights Center in downtown, Clearwater is the headquarters for all of Florida to receive requests. UHR and YHR are inspired by the words of L. Ron Hubbard, "Human Rights must be made a fact not an idealistic dream." To learn more, visit @UHRFlorida.

The next stretch was a nice stroll through a pine forest with cool grassy patches in between – something we haven't seen so far!
Last mile into hiker town was flat and easy.
And then we arrived in Hiker Town. A little artificial Western village right next to the trail only for us PCTler. Very awkward! A post office (which is actually a real one!), store, town hall, etc in miniature format all equiped with beds.
Must be funny being governed by too much heat and too little water – compared to mud and potentially life threatening river crossings! Look forward to hearing how the night hike goes – I guess the going must be relatively good underfoot as we haven't come across many bits of the TA we would like to hike at night [beaches maybe :-)]. Keep up the good work – the photos tell a great story as always.

#2 Son and his fiancee were driving back to Madison from the Chicago area. She was driving her car which had been at her folk's home. #2 was behind her driving the Element which he bought from his aunt (The Other Twin). She noticed the car ahead of her begin to skid and went into ditch on the side of the road. She adjusted her speed and was able to negotiate the apparent patch of black ice which caused the other car to go off the road.
She noticed in her rear view mirror that #2's car began to skid. He was unable to control the car and he went into the ditch. The car rolled a couple of times and landed upside down next to the first car which went off the road. After he got his bearings, he realized he was not hurt and there was someone still in the other car. He unbuckled himself and was able to get out of the car and help the young lady in the other car. First responders arrived and everyone got checked out and were off to the hospital.
#2 walked away from this with scratches and a possible concussion. We talked to them last night and all was well. They were dealing with the stuff one needs to do after an accident. They were in good spirits and we tried to be as encouraging and supportive for them. They went back to the car and pulled out everything they needed. The only real casualty, besides the car, was an antique piece of furniture they had received from her grandmother.

Gareth Williams and Jamie Cullum
i've seen gareth williams quite a lot with tim garland and claire martin toname but a few. i'm yet to fathom his style really but it just blows me away. a lot of that pentatonic stuff that he does is really attractive to my ear although it's hard to figure it out by just listening in realtime. i keep meaning to slow down a track and hope it becomes clearer.
as far as jamie cullum goes i'm not into all that piano kicking and slapping. i saw him break a piano stool last year whilst he was playing live on radio 3. it detracts from his playing really but i'm sure as he gets onto his private jet he'll be really concerned :)

Final proposals for the regulation of nursing associates, including the skills and knowledge students will need in order to qualify, have been outlined by the Nursing and Midwifery Council.
The nursing associate role has been introduced in England by the government to bridge the gap between registered nurses and healthcare assistants.
The move has been welcomed by some, especially nursing directors with high vacancy rates, but some academics and unions have warned that the controversial new role could be seen as a cheaper substitute for registered nurses.
As reported by Nursing Times, the NMC became the official regulator for nursing associates in July, after legislation received royal assent. The legislation provides for the regulation of nursing associates "to be broadly the same as the approach we take to nurses and midwives", noted the NMC.
Previously, in March, the NMC published an updated draft version of the standards nursing associates will need to meet and the list of skills they should be trained in.
This was followed in April by a 12-week consultation exercise on the proposals that has now been followed by what is likely to be the final version if approved by the regulator's council.
The new standards for the role have been published by the NMC this week in a 63-page document alongside its recommendations on the wider approach to the regulation of nursing associates.
"Overall, there was a consistent and strong degree of support for our proposals for the regulation of nursing associates," said the regulator in its report on the consultation process.
As part of its plans, the NMC has set out how the existing code – with a new introduction and some minor changes – will apply to nursing associates as well as nurses and midwives.
The regulator said its approach would ensure that the same high standards of professional behaviour and conduct would apply to everyone on its register.
In addition, the proposed fees that nursing associates will be expected to pay have also been set out and will bring nursing associates "broadly into line with nurses and midwives". Nursing associates will be expected to pay £120 to join the register and then the same amount annually to stay on it.
Meanwhile, the main way for a nursing associate to train will be through work-based learning – more widely known as an apprenticeship.
As a result, the NMC said it had worked closely with employers and educators to develop a new approach to ensuring appropriate learning time for students.
This, it said, will give education providers and their practice placement partners more flexibility to decide how students will get the protected learning time they need.
One option could be the traditional "supernumerary" model – where students were additional to the minimum number of staff required for safety.
However, under a new option, trainee associates would be included in the numbers required for safety but trusts must demonstrate how they will protect a certain amount of learning time.
This might be by giving them time away from their usual duties or showing that they have supervision when developing new skills, suggested the regulator.
The NMC's governing council will be asked to approve the proposed approach to regulation at its meeting on the 26 September.
Geraldine Walters, director of education and standards at the NMC, said: "It's clear from what we've seen and heard that trainee nursing associates are appreciated by those they're caring for, and that the nurses they are working alongside recognise the potential of the role now and in the future.
"We know just how important it is that students who are training 'on the job' have time away from their everyday duties to learn," said Ms Walters.
"We're confident that the plans we've outlined today will not only support students to learn and keep patients safe but also work for employers too," she said.
In January 2017, the first group of 1,000 trainee nursing associates began two-year programmes, followed by a further 1,000 in April that year at pilot sites across England.
In April this year, the NMC said just under 500 further trainee nursing associates had also commenced programmes in England so far, with more than 4,000 expected to begin later in 2018.
Looks like nursing on the cheap but the reality will be far more costly.
destroyed is beyond me. .
Lots more money for the NMC with the additional registration fees.
I am a Trainee Assistant Practitioner with 30 years experience in healthcare, we should all be welcoming associate nursing practitioners with open arms!!! and assistant practitioners looking after them on the wards, nurturing them, not slagging them off, we are here to help patients and nurses and to support you nurses. After all nurse shortages, what else are we going to do. I will be well qualified upon completion with relevant training, embrace it everyone and stop moaning.
So here is the thing folks, the people that are saying nurses are "slagging off" AP's and "get out and work at Sainsbury's" are missing one or two valuable points.
1) You are going to be used as cheap labour. Plain and simple. The hospitals don`t even have to wait until your training is over to do that now. They can even do it while you are a student.
2) I have worked with many HCA`s who were amazing at what they did, and could quite easily have gone on to become qualified nurses- some even did. However, because you will earn less than an RN, and knowing the MO of these hospitals with "fiscal responsibility" constantly on their mind, they WILL be employing you instead of RNs. Why do you think they would be pleased about being put out of a job?
3)The RN is ultimately going to be responsible for what you do. I understand you will be registered, however, anyone delagating a task, i.e. the RN, is responsible for overseeing it's completion- and it's outcome.
To me, the nursing crisis was caused by a lack of decent pay, and awful working conditions. This would be better met by remediation, and thereby encouraging people back into the job rather than creating a whole new role, unless you had an ulterior motive behind it like a smaller wage bill. I would love to be wrong and I wish the AP's well, but I also believe that qualified nurses- and their union representatives- should be watching this very closely.
And what about the Trainee Assistant Practitioners also being recognished, nurses moaning about protecting their pins. Delegation is taught in University is it not?
And good on you all you trained Nursing Associates, just what the NHS needs.... Well done!
Jealousy from Nurses, very sad, they should be happy with all the support they are getting from AP's and NA's. The feedback I get is that most of the nurses would not have done the nursing degree but with they waited and did the NA or AP role.
Do you not delegate on a daily basis to HCA's everyday? what is the difference?, only you will have a more qualified member of staff to delegate the work to. I think these new roles are amazing for staff who have worked as HCA's for years and have a considerable amount of knowledge and training. Apprenticeships are fabulous and we dont have to pay for the first year of nursing. How fantastic is that. I am currently doing my foundation degree to become and AP and loving it. I will benefit any nursing team and will do it with pride. Please try and support us and stop thinking about yourselves.

We have received many compliments so far, but Santo Accurso's words have touched our hearts deeply. The professionalism and sophistication of Dr. Tehrany and the staff at Manhattan Orthopedic Care have helped Mr. Accurso to overcome his doubt in doctors. He let Dr. Tehrany perform a shoulder surgery due to his shoulder injury. His pain is now gone and he feels energized again.
We are thankful for his honest testimonial and we are glad that we have helped him to overcome the pain in his shoulder, as well as his skepticism.
"I am usually very skeptical when it comes to doctors, but Dr. Armin Tehrany and his wonderful, friendly and professional staff have changed my mind. My left shoulder was in pain for a long time and Dr. Perry Drucker recommended that I see a surgeon. He gave me several names and I chose Dr. Armin Tehrany. I am so glad I did! He performed the shoulder surgery in his surgical center in Manhattan and I was home the same day. I am now pain free and looking forward to resuming my life. Thank you Dr. Tehrany and your staff for giving me back a life without pain after the shoulder injury.", writes Mr. Accurso.

Pro teams 'paid millions' to promote US military
Senate report accuses Pentagon of wasting taxpayers' money to pay for patriotic displays at sporting events.
The US government has paid professional sports franchises millions of dollars over almost four years as part of a taxpayer-funded programme to promote the military, according to a US Senate report.
The report said on Wednesday that the Department of Defense (DoD) paid more than $9m to NFL, NBA, MLB, MLS, NHL teams and NASCAR to bolster recruitment and promote the armed services by staging patriotic displays at sporting events.
The activities included paying for recruitment ceremonies, on-field colour-guard performances, hometown heroes ceremonies, puck drops and first pitches.
"Americans across the country should be deeply disappointed that many of the ceremonies honouring troops at professional sporting events are not actually being conducted out of a sense of patriotism, but for profit in the form of millions in taxpayer dollars going from the Department of Defense to wealthy pro sports franchises," said Senator John McCain, one of the co-authors of the report.
McCain and Flake said they are not against patriotic salutes, but they are against taxpayer funds being used to compensate multimillion-dollar sports teams.
The report said much of the money was doled out without proper supervision.
"Americans deserve the ability to assume that tributes for our men and women in military uniform are genuine displays of national pride, which many are, rather than taxpayer-funded DoD marketing gimmicks," the report said.
The report said the NFL initially downplayed criticism of the practice but has now called on all its clubs to stop accepting money for patriotic events.
Some of the biggest recipients of the Pentagon money included the NFL's Atlanta Falcons - which has received a total of $879,000 since 2012 - and NASCAR, which received $1.5m just this year.

The Senate report also noted that the records of all contracts since 2012 between the military and sports franchises were requested from the Pentagon, but only two-thirds of them were provided.
Some of the material provided was also misleading, according to the report.
Asked whether US President Barack Obama thought it was appropriate for the DoD to pay professional sports franchises to honour service members at games, Josh Earnest, White House press secretary, said: "I'm not aware that the president has weighed in on this, and I will acknowledge that I'm not aware of the policies that govern those kinds of relationships.
"I do know that the Department of Defense would likely say that these kinds of relationships enhance their recruiting efforts."

The Progressive Density within the smartcare model is comprised of several layers of polyurethane using different densities. They are engineered for all body types, contours the shape of the body and provides a well distributed body support reducing pressure points.
These layers are superimposed on a rigid base made of resistant polystyrene which are of high technological performance.
Last but not least, on top of all layers, it is applied a layer we call Vulcanplex which contains tablets of FIR (far infrared) that emit waves from 4 to 14 microns and 30 trillion vibration per second and Magnetic tablets (barion ferrite) that emit electromagnetic waves of about 800 Gauss. Smart Care also has an internal electronic vibromassageador.
The order of application of the layers of the Smart Care model has been carefully studied, following the most rigorous standards of world-class quality in order to minimize the loss of its original form with use over time. This allows us to grant a limited 30-year warranty for certain repairs of the product. An authorized independent reseller or representative (I.R.) will provide customers with all the details of this limited warranty before purchasing the product.

2013 Government Shutdown Overview and Analysis: "We the People…"
Bryan Felix '15
In the waning hours of the US 2013 Fiscal Year on September 20th Capitol Hill failed to reach an agreement on 2014 budget appropriations. Without a spending plan in place, the US government had to effectively "shut down" until an agreement was reached on spending. With this the government went on their first shutdown since the 1996-1996 shutdown which lasted for 21 days. This immediately sent a shock through the government infrastructure, causing 800,000 workers to be furloughed without pay with many others being asked to work without pay. Also all national parks, museums and pretty much anything "non-essential" was shut down. Now this struggle was not per say over the actual budget as it was a game of chicken between our bipartisan government.
The real issue of the bill was Obamacare, state health care, which the Republicans staunchly oppose and wish to limit and the Democrats who avidly accept and wish growth for it. The Republican controlled House of Representatives made every attempt to oppose Obamacare with every proposition to the Senate, but they lost every attempt to pass any measures even in the last hours because of Obama's undying support for it. With the House and Senate in conflict, it was made only worse with President Obama's undying and repetitive support for Obamacare and the contempt of the Republican Party. While this argument can devolve into a classic GOP vs Democrat fight, as unfortunately marketed and spurred on by the media, I see this rather as a failure of Democracy and the bipartisan system.
Even with an average 10% approval rating for Congress we continue to vote for the same Representatives every year and constantly vote based on party affiliations. "WE THE PEOPLE" caused this shutdown by allowing our politicians free-reign and giving them the liberty to put party values over national interests, as seen with Obamacare even when bigger problems were afoot. This party system we currently hold as our Democracy has nothing but divided the nation over fine-lined issues and has served the purpose of causing repeated strife in our lives. Is Obamacare good? Yes of course, healthcare should be available for all but should it take precedence over all the other more important political and financial problems? No. However logical compromises are looked down upon by those who benefit from the division.
While this shutdown does nothing to harm the government other than to spite each other, the ultimatum arrives October 17th when, if no bill is passed, the US is pushed over its debt ceiling and defaults. The default is the atomic bomb to the paintball gun that is the shutdown. The permanent impacts of the default would be awful for the US and, as some would say, "political suicide" So will Obama and the Republicans really going to let this happen? Most likely not as this would turn over the nation, ensuring that even the dimmest Americans wouldn't reelect their friends. Yet the point stands no matter what happens: the people have failed the US by letting it deteriorate to this point. We have returned to our stubbornness and division that failed the nation in its past. It will be tested now in the coming years, or even days, whether a house divided can remain to stand.
