Health worker convicted of obtaining patient details unlawfully
Issued 12 January 2012
A former health worker has pleaded guilty to unlawfully obtaining patient information by accessing the medical records of five members of her ex-husband's family in order to obtain their new telephone numbers.
Juliah Kechil, formerly known as Merritt, a former Health Care Assistant in the outpatients department at the Royal Liverpool University Hospital, was convicted under section 55 of the Data Protection Act at Liverpool City Magistrates Court today. She was fined £500 and also ordered to pay £1,000 towards prosecution costs and a £15 victim surcharge.
Ms Kechil accessed the medical records of the five individuals between July and November 2009. Royal Liverpool University Hospital began an investigation in November 2009 when the defendant's father-in-law contacted the hospital after receiving nuisance calls which he suspected had been made by his former daughter-in-law. Having changed his phone number in July 2009 following unwanted calls from Ms Kechil, he was immediately concerned that there had been a breach of patient confidentially.
Checks by the hospital revealed that all of the patients whose details had been compromised were not at any time under the medical care of Ms Kechil and she had no work-related reasons to access their records. She accessed the information for her own personal gain without the consent of her employer. The accesses were traced through audit trails which were linked to the defendant's smartcard ID.
Head of Enforcement, Steve Eckersley, said:
"Unlawfully obtaining other people's information for personal gain is a serious offence which can have potentially devastating effects. Ms Kechil accessed medical records for entirely personal reasons. The breach of their privacy would obviously have been very distressing for the individuals involved.
"People should be able to feel confident that their personal details will be stored securely and only accessed when there is a legitimate business need. We will always push for the toughest penalties against individuals who abuse this trust."
Unlawfully obtaining or accessing personal data is a criminal offence under section 55 of the Data Protection Act 1998. The offence is punishable by way of a financial penalty of up to £5,000 in a Magistrates Court or an unlimited fine in a Crown Court. The ICO continues to call for more effective deterrent sentences, including the threat of prison, to be available to the courts to stop the unlawful use of personal information.
If you need more information, please contact the ICO press office on 0303 123 9070 or visit the website at www.ico.gov.uk
The Information Commissioner's Office upholds information rights in the public interest, promoting openness by public bodies and data privacy for individuals.

They are cover with a bubble-shaped or rectangular galvanized steel, half-circular or polyethylene shields. They are attached to the side of the house to support the earth as well as to block the debris. They also help during the storm or rains as they don't allow water to enter to the well nor the dust.
It has been seen that when there is any storm, snowfall or even rain, there is a possibility that the well may get affected or may collapse the window well sides. Apart from this ants, dust, termites too get the access to the basement of the house and may affect the structure. These will lead to deterioration of the well as well as the basement.
You need to take a prefabricated window and then place the same against the ground level window. By doing this, you can get an idea where to dig.
When you dig for well make sure it is grade away from the foundation.
Need to cover the bottom of the hole with about 4 inches of gravel.
Bolt the window with the foundation.
Secure the well with the foundation with the help of the bolts.
Fill the excess area if any around the well with soil.
These are the steps that you need to follow when you are going to install it.
Well has got many advantages and can surely helpful for you to ensure the basement safety along with proper ventilation and lighting for the same. If you have any problem, you can take the assistance of Window Well service as they have got trained professionals for it.

The Issue with Memes Overpopulation in Our World
Information Science and Technology, Literature
Computer Science, Literary Genres
Internet, Satire
Memes are overpopulating and it is a problem, while memes are growing in numbers it takes over the internet. Memes are all over the internet, in fact memes are on facebook, tumblr, Instagram, Twitter, they are everywhere! Since memes are overpopulating we need to be aware of what memes are being shared. There are dead memes, stale memes, and new memes. We need to get rid of Dead Memes.It all started with the big hit, "Who Let The Dogs Out," and memes have grown in numbers ever since. These are dead memes and they are still being used to this day. The pop tart cat, "Nyan Cat" is an example of a dead meme.
Critics say Dead Memes being used today and they are annoying, useless, and not funny anymore so people need to stop. The meme "Do You Know The Wae," is a dead meme but people are still using it in schools. To put it simply, memes that are dead should not be used as the term "dead" describes them. To call a meme dead, it means that that meme is old or has lost its popularity. If a meme is stale then that means that the meme is losing its popularity. But the real problem isn't just the stale and dead memes, it is the mass production of memes. Memes are entertaining but not original. Memes like these are so bad and so useless that no one knows why these people make the memes.Memes are a problem because they take away time from people and they are useless except for the 2 seconds of entertainment.
If you were to spend your time on memes all day, you are going nowhere. Instead you could be learning how to code, or building something useful for other people. Memes take away valuable time away from people. If the memes were to stop producing so much stuff then there wouldn't be this problem in the first place. If only there was a way to stop the overproduction of memes, then we will be truly saved.What is something that YOU can do to stop the overpopulation of memes? You can spread awareness and tell people to stop the overproduction of memes. If your name is Thanos then you can snap your fingers in a metal glove to make all the memes seize to exist. If your name is Light Yagami then you can write the names of the memes being made and get rid of them in your Death Note. If your name is the same name of the person reading this right now, you can tell people to stop making memes. You can use the hashtag #StopMemesFromOverpopulating on Instagram or a Social Media. You can help society get rid of the Overpopulated memes. You can be the solution.

By Eric Zawadzki, Ryan K. Lindsay and Dee Cunniffe.
Published by Black Mask Studios LLC.
Eternal is a story set in the age of Vikings.
Tagged as a shieldmaiden ghost story, it is a tale of female warriors protecting their village after the men journey away to conflict and are never heard from again. Far from waiting at home for events to befall them, however, these fierce women take matters into their own hands to bring about a whole new world of peace and sanctuary different from the one that existed before. As such, rather than a story that could easily have been about obsession and revenge in the aftermath of loss, this is a story about protecting what remains and leaving behind the legacy of a better future and, despite the bleakness and violence of the world depicted, it is ultimately a tale of hope that left this reader satisfied.
The action is driven by an excellent main character. Vif is a warrior who leads from the front. A capable strategist and proficient swordsperson, she is a brave and savage fighter. She is also a widow, the mother of a boy who would prefer a land of peace to picking up the sword that is his father's legacy, and sister-leader to her fellow shieldmaidens.
What I appreciate about this story is that she is allowed to be both feminine and warrior without there being any sense of contradiction or anomaly in that.
Vif is leadership, action and violence and also love, protection and sacrifice in one package. She is allowed moments of tenderness and grief without these being depicted as weak and because of these added elements her journey through this story is genuinely moving.
One comment I would make regarding characterisation is that, while not necessarily a detraction from the work, in focussing completely on Vif, the story does not provide much exploration of other characters. The main villain of the piece is relatively one-dimensional in service of Vif's journey and aside from Vif's son, you know little of the other characters occupying Vif's village. As such, readers after plenty of dialogue and fully-fleshed minor characters might not find this aspect as satisfying.
The artwork is wonderful, with an inking style that at times reminded me of Mike Mignola. Every design aspect, from the hair, armour and swords of the characters to their ships and huts and the pastoral land and wilderness around them is rich with detail. The scenes are full of movement and the colours are precisely applied as setting and mood dictates, going a long way toward making the icy wastes, mighty seas and looming, mist-shrouded mountains characters in their own right.
Where Eternal really excels for me, is in the exacting and imaginative application of the panels to achieve movement and mood and precise pacing. Eternal goes beyond the confines of identical box panels to do something extra. Here, a battered sword spans three panels indicating the passage of seasons; the spirit of an evil mage cackles amidst billowing smoke; a collection of small boxes depicts in brutal flashes of blood, limbs and faces the excruciating detail of a character's tumble into death; and a series of battle scenes, depicted in striking red, gives the impression of suspended animation, of time standing still, and fills an important role in Vif's story that I won't spoil for you here.
Particular mention should be given to the Viking knot-work that is used to wonderful effect to create panels depicting scenes between Vif and her son. This exquisite detail hints at the rich and ancient cultural legacy that has been entrusted to these characters and imbues these scenes with both nostalgia and tenderness, as if these moments are treasures of the main character's heart to be carefully bound and locked away.
Readers should also take note of the amazing use of silence in this piece: the absence of dialogue and sound that comes after a shocking and terrible act helps to create a powerful representation of trauma and grief. This silence frees the reader to concentrate on the action that delivers in spades. Rich with movement and emotion, the panels flow beautifully toward a scene finale that is not only shocking in its execution, but due to an absence of words to break the pace, is imbued with an added sense of the inevitable and tragic.
In summary, it is difficult to do the plot of this story complete justice without major spoilers, since the writing and pacing is so tight. What I will say is that this is a gorgeous and moving piece of work that is well worth checking out. I'm not sure if the trade edition will have this, but the review PDF I received also included a neat insight as to how the writers and artists pulled this project together. It includes loads of concept art and is well worth a read for readers with an interest in the graphic novel process.

After two years of desperately trying to have a baby, Suzanne Reichenbach was told she would never produce enough eggs to conceive. At age 34, her hormone levels were virtually premenopausal.
Like millions of other modern women who have pushed back motherhood into their mid-30s and beyond, Reichenbach jumped at costly in vitro fertilization (IVF) treatments, the so-called petri-dish solution. But with too few follicles - the clusters of ovarian cells that house a woman's eggs - science was stumped and Reichenbach was frustrated.

After getting medical check-ups and being told they had only a 2%-5% chance on their own, they opted for a mainstreammedical approach for revving up fertility. Basically, it would entail injecting Dean's sperm into one of Aeri's eggs. It's highly invasive, involves powerful drugs, and costs about $10,000 a try.

how a police force in syria is being funded with bags of our cash. to see british money being held in a bag, i honestly only saw that on movies. it was deeply shocking. we expose how our aid money can end up with jihadis. it is unfortunately strengthening the extremists and the islamic groups. and we reveal how police officers we pay for work with a brutaljustice system. they were putting their hands in front of their eyes, and we are not seeing anything. britain is generous when it comes to helping poorer countries. we give £13 billion a year in foreign aid. but the way we help other countries has changed. the government now gives much of that cash to private companies. they then deliver aid projects around the world. there must be accountability for the money that is spent. and of course, the more difficult the environment you are operating in, perhaps the greater leeway you give, but it is more important then that there needs to be as much transparency and accountability for the taxpayer's money. one british company has done very well under the new system. adam smith internatio

airfield in syria from where the chemical attack was launched. just two days after a chemical weapons strike that killed 86 people, including 27 children, donald trump authorised a cruise missile strike on an air base in syria. it's the first direct military intervention from america against the syrian government since the flick began. the missile attack marks a huge change in policy by the americans and it's a hiej test of donald trump's presidency. we will look at what it means for him at home and within the international community. assad's role in the future is uncertain, clearly, and with acts he has taken it would seem there would be no role for him to govern the syrian people. the us secretary of state said the attack was a proportionate response adding that russia had been either complicit or incompetent by failing to secure the chemical weapons of its syrian ally. a romanian woman injured in the westminster terror attack two weeks ago has died. andrea cristea had been visiting london with her boyfriend. good morning. welcome to the programme. we are live until iiam this mornin

TGIM: Thank God for Indie Mondays lets audience judge entries for Fort Myers Film Fest
EN Photo / Luke Janke
Fort Myers' indie film season kicked off Monday night with the inaugural night of TGIM: Thank God for Indie Movie Mondays, a series of public indie movie screenings presented by the Fort Myers Film Festival. Local film buffs and casual moviegoers gathered at the Sidney & Berne Davis Art Center in downtown Fort Myers to watch independent films competing in the festival.
This was the first TGIM in a series that will take place throughout the 2016-17 season. The event is one-of-a-kind in Southwest Florida where local film enthusiasts get to participate and experience the vetting process for accepting short films into the festival.
Judges Kaycie Lee, Dillon Dailidonis and Justin Verely brought their local showbiz knowledge into the judging process, offering critiques and praises for each film after they were shown.
Along with the panel of three judges, the audience was able to rate and comment on the semi-finalists via ballots handed out at the entrance. The audience judged each of the five films that night based on a one to five rating system, one being poor and five being excellent. The master of ceremonies for the night, TV personality Eric Raddatz, filled the space between films with witty commentary and banter. Members of the crowd were also able to share their thoughts on each film.
This format for judging indie films in a think tank fashion is unique to Fort Myers Film Fest, and judge Dailidonis says it's what makes these TGIM events so groundbreaking.
"This is the only film fest to ever do this," Dailidonis said. "It's a great way to get the community involved."
Every installment of TGIM will feature a variety of genres and styles of film to judge. The first Monday included animation, drama, experimental, comedy and interpretation entries.
Two films that stood out among the crowd were an animated short called "Head," directed by Stav Levy, and a drama called "Reflection," directed by Martin Castaneda, which delved into issues with Alzheimer's. It's possible that these two will go on to the festival.
TGIM happens the first Monday of every month through season.

The film stars Sharan and Mayuri Kyatari in the lead roles. Puneeth Rajakumar has sung the title track.
Kannada-language romantic comedy "Nataraja Service" was released in Karnataka and other states of India, on November 17, 2016.
The trailer of the comedy is already out and is generating a good amount of buzz. Pavan who made his debut with the rib-tickling "Govindaya Namaha" in 2012 is using the same sure shot formula in this movie also. Comedy rules supreme in Kannada Entertainment.
The film's 'Allah-Allah" song is hugely popular amongst fans but has earned the ire of some Muslim organization which opposed the number featuring the Maulvi played by Ravi Shankar's character and wanted to stop the screening of the film.
The group objected to the Maulvi holding a gun in the song. The objectionable piece was then digitally erased.
However, after watching the movie they were satisfied and asked for a few cuts which were trivial. So everything is fine, and the film will be released as planned. Anoop Seelin has composed music.
The movie is produced by N. Rajakumar and presented by Punith Rajkumar who also gives his voice to the title track. Arun Somasundram has done an excellent job behind the camera. The film was shot extensively in many remote parts of the state like Dandeli and Sirsi.
The flick was supposed to release last week but was released today due to theater unavailability.
Veeranjaneya Films has the distribution rights and they released the movie in more than 200 screens in Karnataka alone.
It is some time since a Sharan starrer has been released though his last release "Jai Maruthi 800' had a good run at the box office.
The flick has generated a real buzz, and if things go his way, Sharan can add one more hit to his name.
Stay tuned for the box-office stats.

Q: Run sqlcmd in Dockerfile Is it possible to run sqlcmd inside a dockerfile?
First I am creating a layer
FROM microsoft/mssql-server-windows-developer:2017-latest

After that I accept the eula and set the sa password like this:
ENV ACCEPT_EULA=Y

ENV SA_PASSWORD=VerySecret!

After doing so I am trying to execute a simple sample query:
RUN sqlcmd -S "localhost" -U "SA" -P "VerySecret!" -Q "select name from master.dbo.sysdatabases"

Unfortunately the docker build command breaks with the error message "Sqlcmd: 'name from master.dbo.sysdatabases': Unexpected argument. Enter '-?' for help."
Am I doing something wrong?

A: The MS SQL containers can have SQL statements run against them inside a dockerfile that uses them.
I think your problem is just that double quotes are being stripped from your RUN command.
I couldn't quite decide if its a bug based on this github issue but escaping them as \" will work around it.
You can also avoid setting the SA password in your docker file by defaulting to a trusted connection:
run sqlcmd -Q \"select name from master.dbo.sysdatabases\"

This way the variables can be set at container run time like this:
docker run -e ACCEPT_EULA=Y -e SA_PASSWORD=bobleponge -p 1433:1433 <imageid>

A: To interactively run Microsoft SQL server from the shell.
docker exec -it sql1 /opt/mssql-tools/bin/sqlcmd -S localhost -U sa

It will prompt for a password.
"sql1" is the name of the instance. Change this with container id if it has not been named.
1>

A: It's not possible to connect to databases inside a Dockerfile.
Think of the Dockerfile like a javac or cc or make command.  It produces a binary image; once you've built that image, you can run it on several different hosts.  You can very easily imagine workflows like deleting and recreating the database without rebuilding the image, or pushing and pulling the image onto a different host with a different database, where these setup steps haven't run.
The usual approach here is to configure your container to run database migrations as part of its startup sequence, possibly with a custom entrypoint script.  The stock database images also come with a mechanism to run an SQL script when a container is first created, which you can use to create an empty database for your application.

Knowledge About Scabies Among Students At High Institute Of Health Science - Hajjah Branch(YEMEN)
Abdulnaser Badr

Dr. Fuoz Abu Al-Ghaith
Scabies, Students , Hajjah – Yemen.
The purpose of this study was to assess the level of Knowledge about scabies among students at the High Institute of Health Sciences - Hajjah branch,Yemen. A cross-sectional study was conducted at the High Institute of health science - Hajjah branch in Hajjah city among 260 students studying at Health Institute . The data were collected by using self administered structured questionnaire. SPSS software was used for data analysis. Approximately 31.5% of students were classified as having adequate knowledge of Scabies . Most of the students reported that scabies is a communicable disease (90.9%),but only (29.7%) of students reported that a parasite is the causative agent of Scabies. Surprisingly, (12.3 %) students know of appropriate drugs for scabies and (39.3 %) students reported that there's a vaccination against scabies . Health facilities were the most common sources of the knowledge among them . This study found that there is an association between (study level, departments and residency) and level of knowledge about the scabies disease among students. (p = 0.002, p = 0.013, p = 0.029) respectively. The result showed that the knowledge level was moderate in students and health facilities were the most preferred sources of the knowledge. Thus, interventions for knowledge improvement should be more on students and the community in Hajjah governorate.
