Johannes Eggert (* 10. Februar 1898 in Bublitz, Provinz Pommern; † 15. Februar 1937 in Berlin-Plötzensee) war ein deutscher kommunistischer Widerstandskämpfer gegen das Naziregime.

Leben
Eggert stammte aus der Kleinstadt Bublitz in Hinterpommern. Nach Abschluss seiner Schulausbildung wurde er Metallarbeiter, später kaufmännischer Angestellter. Er nahm als Soldat am Ersten Weltkrieg teil und gehörte Ende des Jahres 1918 einem Soldatenrat an. Im Jahre 1919 trat er in die Kommunistische Partei Deutschlands (KPD) ein. Im Jahre 1921 beteiligte er sich an einem Aufruhr von Landarbeitern gegen Großgrundbesitzer in Pommern. Dafür wurde er 1922 wegen schweren Raubes zu sechs Jahren Zuchthaus verurteilt. Ein Jahr später gelang es ihm zu fliehen und lebte seither illegal unter dem Namen "Hans Simke". In Königsberg wurde er politischer Leiter des Rotfrontkämpferbundes (RFB) und gehörte auch zu dessen Reichsleitung.

Im Jahre 1933 emigrierte er in die Sowjetunion, kam aber bereits 1934 wieder zurück und wurde erster Berater und Instrukteur des Zentralkomitees der KPD in Sachsen. Am 25. Januar 1935 wurde er in Leipzig von der Gestapo verhaftet. Gegen ihn verhandelte der Volksgerichtshof und verurteilte ihn am 25. August 1936 zum Tode. Johannes Eggert wurde in das Zuchthaus von Berlin-Plötzensee verbracht. Am Tag vor seiner Hinrichtung schrieb er in seinem Abschiedsbrief an seine Ehefrau, dass er gefasst in den Tod gehe und dass er auch von ihr erwarte, aufrecht ihre Menschenpflicht zu erfüllen. In Plötzensee wurde er am 25. Februar 1937 mit dem Fallbeil hingerichtet.

Johannes Eggert war verheiratet mit Luzie Jaworski (1902–1985), die von 1933 bis 1945 in der UdSSR lebte und 1946 in die Sowjetische Besatzungszone (SBZ) Deutschlands zurückkehrte. Sie war Angestellte im Ministerium für Auswärtige Angelegenheiten der DDR.

The Power of Radio in the Fight for Girls' Education in Malawi
Posted by Neetha Tangirala on Tuesday, May 2nd 2017

Most people in Malawi rely on radio as their primary source of news and information, as 85 percent of the population do not have access to television or newspapers.
Marshall Dyton is no stranger to this fact — he recognizes radio's power and its critical role in educating and informing rural communities across the country, including his own in Mangochi District in eastern Malawi.
As a Mandela Washington Fellow
— chosen as part of the Young African Leaders Initiative (YALI) program in 2015 — and editor-in-chief of Malawi's first online Muslim publication, Marshall first produced radio broadcasts during an internship at the Kumakomo Community Radio Station in Zimbabwe, which he secured with support from USAID. There, he led a team of a dozen volunteers to produce content.
After completing the internship, Marshall decided to put his newfound skills to use to engage communities about a plight sweeping Malawi — the negative impact of child marriage on education for women and girls.
This is an issue that Marshall understood personally — his mother was one of the few women who went to school in his community, despite a culture that prioritizes the education of men and boys.

Shedding Light on a Dark Subject
According to UNICEF, Malawi has the 11th-highest child marriage rate in the world, with nearly one in two girls married before the age of 18. Human rights activists have long argued that child marriage is a barrier to education particularly for girls, making them vulnerable to cycles of poverty and violence.

Early this year, the Malawian government voted to amend the constitution to remove a provision that allowed children to marry at 15. Now, marriage before the age of 18 is illegal, but challenges remain.
To join the fight against child marriage and other issues that affect women and girls in marginalized communities, Marshall wanted to engage directly with communities to create change. Inspired by his time at the Kumakomo Radio, he organized a radio talk show that brought together chiefs, religious leaders, girls, women and men to confront child marriage and discuss the importance of education for girls.

The show was a collaboration across the YALI and Mandela Washington Fellows networks, and with Regional Leadership Center participants — young leaders between 18 and 35 enrolled in USAID-supported leadership training programs in sub-Saharan Africa — who took turns at the microphone during the live show.
Previously, issues around child marriage, women's education and the status of women were rarely discussed, and they remain largely taboo. Marshall's goal was to take the discussion to the national stage.

"With radio we spent less but achieved more," Marshall said.
The show was broadcast live for two hours and reached an estimated 3 million listeners on national radio. The aim was to increase awareness within Muslim communities in Malawi about education, the misinterpretation of religious text, and why communities must confront embedded cultural values that lead to child marriage.

"Radio allows for debates and discussions to be open and transparent, and can be a critical tool for building consensus among communities and citizens," Marshall said.
The talk show was organized under the Girl Child Education Movement, an initiative that Marshall founded to help girls in his community access education in rural Malawi. Broadcast on Malawi's only Islamic radio station, Radio Islam, the event was designed to reach Malawi's Muslim communities, who are vulnerable to discrimination given their religious and cultural background, Marshall said.
Creating Change Through Community Inclusion
As a result of the talk show, the Muslim Association of Malawi, who attended the event, agreed to open new offices in rural areas where communities can access up-to-date information about education and scholarship opportunities for girls.

Inspired by the success of his radio show, Marshall's dream is to start a community radio station that is run by youth from diverse religious backgrounds. He believes that one way to tackle challenges facing marginalized communities and women in Malawi is to discuss these issues in an open forum.
Like in Malawi, USAID supports programs in over 30 countries to strengthen journalistic professionalism for individuals such as Marshall, establish media management skills and promote free media.

One of the biggest centers of water sports is at St.Nicolas beach,at Basilikos, at southeast part of the island.
St.Nicolas is a beautiful bay with gold sand and blue crystal water.
There you can spent all your day enjoying all kinds of water sports as parachute, jet boat, water ski, banana and other ones. Except of these you can swim and relax under the sunshine.You can find water sports centers in other places of Zakynthos too,as Tsilivi, Laganas, Alikes and more.


The Unit's national tour of radio freestyles continues. Out in Baltimore to promote their recently released The Beauty of Independence EP, Kidd Kidd, Lloyd Banks & Tony Yayo sat down with Off The Hook Radio's Pork and Squirrel show on 92Q Jams and kicked another nasty, memorable freestyle over Nas' "NY State of Mind".
During the interview portion, the trio mentioned their thoughts on the reunion, their upcoming solo projects as well as 50 Cent, who was absent from the interview altogether.

Visit our Play Everywhere Gallery for examples of proposed visuals.
What do you mean by temporary, semi-permanent, and permanent?
See definitions below for length of time you predict your project will be in place.
How can we ensure that our project complies with the Americans With Disabilities Act (ADA)?
All projects, fixtures, and structures on the public right-of-way must maintain a 4-foot wide/2% cross-slope (max) path of travel for ADA access on sidewalks. Most projects will probably require a revocable permit, or R-permit (fees about $2,000 each) and an A-permit (base fee: $273). The A-permit authorizes beginning construction, and the R-permit is issued after the final built project is inspected. R-permits place liability in perpetuity on the owner of the property where the structure is built, and they are inheritable when the property is sold.
For sidewalk markings, all materials will need to be tested by Bureau of Engineering's contracted vendor. This process costs about $500 for a site visit test.
Can part of our budget in our application be used for professional staff time?
Yes, awards can be used for staff time that is directly related to the implementation of a project. Hiring an artist or other professionals is acceptable! The need should be clear and reasonable in your proposal.
Please note, award money should only be used for project implementation staff time not general overhead costs.
What do you mean by partner organization and fiscal sponsor?
A partnering organization could be any organization (non-profit, government agency, or other) that will help you or support you in varying capacities to implement your project. A fiscal sponsor is mainly needed for individuals and business entities that do not have non-profit status. A fiscal sponsor is needed to accept and distribute the funds to implement the project. Remember, your fiscal sponsor needs to be a registered 501(c)(3) or a government agency.
How detailed should our proposed project be if we want to still allow for design changes based on the community engagement we would do if we were awarded the grant?
The project proposal should be as detailed as possible.
We know that community engagement may change your designs and locations a bit, but the general idea should be the same. Ideally, you should have an existing relationship with the community or work with a partner that does in order to ensure you have a solid community engagement plan. This will make for a more competitive submission. Part of the intention behind the Challenge is to help spur community engagement through rapid prototyping. This means much of your engagement will come through the public's opportunity to interact with and provide feedback on your idea, so their opinions can influence how and if the project will be made permanent or replicated in the future.
If I'm awarded the grant, how much can we deviate from the concept we proposed in the original application?
Not much. Things like size, requested award amount, and neighborhood location can all change but the overall concept should not. If you anticipate a significant change, please email us.
Should all my community engagement be complete before the July 21 deadline?
No. In your application, you should be explaining how you will engage your community in your project after you are awarded. Some community engagement during the refinement period is expected.
What is the difference between the MOU section and the Letter of Support Section?
The MOU is only for individuals and business that are not 501(c)(3) or government agencies to show that their fiscal sponsor (a partner org that is a 501(c)(3) or government agency) is supporting their project and willing to accept and distribute funds on their behalf with regards to the project.
The letters of support in the second half of the application are meant to show community interest and support for the project.
What if your project implementation is delayed?
Challenge projects should be easy to implement in the timeline specified in your application. The goal is that they are implemented by May of 2018, at the latest. If they are implemented earlier, that is great! If for whatever reason, there is a deviation from the proposed timeline, this should be communicated to KaBOOM! immediately.
We'll be looking closely at what it's going to take for your project to be completed during our review period. If you run into challenges such as weather, construction delays, permitting delays, and other things beyond your control, we'll work with you to submit an extension to complete your project within a reasonable timeframe.
How will the grant award be distributed?
If you are selected as a grant winner, the grant would be made as a lump sum in September 2017.
To whom should our letters of support be addressed?
The letters should be general and made out to: "To whom it may concern:": This way, if you are not awarded you can use the letters of support to apply for other funding.
Can I use the grant award amount to do work outside of the implementation timeline of May 31, 2018?
No, you must use the grant award within the allotted time.
Through Let's Play, Keurig Dr Pepper has committed more than $32 million to KaBOOM! since 2011 to support programs that encourage fit and active lifestyles.

Reading things like this gives me great pause. I'm alarmed by what's going on in our society. What is happening to parents? Haven't we read all the books? Aren't we full of good intentions?
Child Already Dislikes New Teacher!
When a child's personality doesn't match up with their teacher's, it can feel like there isn't a connection. But all is not lost! There are many ways you can help your daughter feel more at home in her new classroom.
Thank you for sharing these words from your heart. I know it may seem that you speak only for yourself, but believe me when I say that I don't know of a parent who doesn't feel some degree of regret over things they have said or done in a difficult moment--myself included.
I've Had It With My Kids Complaining That They're Bored!
Children are immensely adaptable, finding ways to adjust to all kinds of circumstances when necessary. Most of us have observed that when the power goes out and they get excited about lighting candles, or when a sibling is sick and they find themselves actually capable of being gentle and kind.
Many times I've worked with a parent who was brought up being told to keep her feelings to herself -- scolded if she dared to express her thoughts or wishes. Lo and behold, she grows up to find herself parenting a passionate, dramatic son or daughter who makes noise about every injustice that crosses his or her path.
My Stepson Is Angry and Aggressive When He's Here!
Your stepson has been thrown into a situation that I see all too often: one parent says negative things about the other parent or stepparent, creating divided loyalties. The child is faced with an impossible dilemma: Whose side am I supposed to be on?
I don't mind that innings start late because kids are waving to their parents in the stands and asking for "just one more bite" of their granola bar through the chain-link fence. I don't mind the chaos, the confusion or the constant chatter. It's all part of the tee-ball game and as coach, I wouldn't have it any other way.
Even parents with a partner living under the same roof know that the probability of patiently meeting every need is impossible. But for those men and women who are going it alone -- by choice, or through circumstances they might never have imagined -- the realities of being the sole parent either full or part time is challenging at best.
13 Year Old Skipping Gym Class Every Day!
If we want to provide our youngsters with advice they will actually listen to, we have to make sure their ears, minds and hearts are open. The more she knows you are on her side, the more honest she'll be.
Mom Tired of Battling Tired Teen to Get Up in the Morning!
Your son is moving rapidly toward adulthood. Rather than trying to control his bedtime -- which at 16 is not likely -- fortify your connection with him so he is willing to work with you to find a solution to his morning sluggishness.
If you are finding it increasingly difficult to remain genuinely present with your child when you hear your digital device beckons, you are not alone. Like Pavlov's dogs, we are gradually being trained to create a compelling association between a bell and a response. And our children are being affected in significant ways.
7 Kids and Their Rooms Are a Mess!
Children don't want to do what they don't want to do. Whether it's tidying their room, taking out the trash, or putting on their pajamas, if a child doesn't see the need to get a task checked off of your list -- or they simply don't feel like it -- she will do her best to avoid it.
Despite all those yummy baby kisses and cozy snuggles, children push our ability to tolerate disorder to its absolute limits. Parenting is hard... and it's messy! Even those of us who aren't perfectionistic often struggle with the chaos.
Can't Get Your Kids to Go to Sleep? Try These 7 Steps!
So often, parents stay until their child falls asleep - I suggest an alternate route. I call this "exiting ritual." Many of my clients have found this to be an easy fix and I hope you do too...and don't forget to let me know what you think!
I wanted badly to be a mother and I love my children to pieces, but I am so exhausted that I wake up in the morning dreading the day ahead. I know all the magazine articles talk about taking care of ourselves, but I laugh when I think about getting a massage.
Until very recently, raising children almost always included the support of extended family and friends. These days, parents often feel terribly isolated as they attempt to meet the needs of their children, whether they are raising them on their own or with a partner.

Eyes Of Revenge: The Count Of Monte Cristo
Edmond Dantes was a 19 year old man who became captain of a ship name the Pharaon. He was much loved by everyone. He is pretty gullible and becomes vengeful when the one guy he considered his friend betrayed him the other two who he was not to fond of ruined his life. He was a respectable young man who showed that numerous times like when he had to leave Morrel while he was talking to him; he said "I beg you excuse me, Monsieur Morrel (Dumas 5). He was to be betrothed to a girl named Mercedes who he'd loved very much but he loved his father most of all. He felt bad when he found out his father was broke from paying his debt causing him to fall to his knees and said "may God forgive me" (Dumas 9). Dantès is a pretty unique character who does nothing but work hard to what he wants to achieve.
Edmond was a very ambitious man who wanted nothing more than to be a captain and marry his beloved. He achieved his goal of his goal of becoming captain in the wake of his former captain's death. He is a man that seen the good in people rather they did him wrong or not. He becomes a very dynamic character throughout the story by transforming himself in to the mysterious and vengeful Count of Monte Cristo. In the wake of his imprisonment and realization that he was the outcome of a conspiracy plot, his whole persona changes and this will spark the change in the story. As depicted throughout the story "nothing ever escaped the Count's eye" (Dumas 276) and nothing will stop his drive toward ruining the men who "killed him".
Baron Danglars, Fernand Mondego, and Villefort are the protagonists of the story Danglars is described as an older man who "was personally as much disliked as Edmond Dantès was beloved by them" (Dumas 3). He is wealthy and spiteful. He can easily persuaded if you give him the right price like how the Count gave him sixteen thousand francs for his best horses.
The overall conflict of The Count of Monte Cristo Edmond Dantes being sent to jail for false prosecution of men who conspired to get him out of the way to achieve their own selfish goals. Edmond decides to become the Count of Monte Cristo to exact his revenge on those men; leading to an external conflict between him and them. This causes a man vs. man conflict because the issue is between two or more characters pitted against each other. Also this causes a man vs. society conflict because everyone thinks of Edmond as a spy and traitor and he has to convince people that he is dead to enact his revenge.
Fernand and Danglars talk about how to get rid of Edmond so the send a false police report about him.Edmond gets arrested and is sent to Chateau d'if for life for being accused of being a Bonapartist spy. Edmond escapes from jail with the help of Abbe Faria. He travels to Monte Cristo to claim the treasure. He returns to Marseilles in disguise as the Count of Monte Cristo and other alias. He tells people that Edmond Dantès is "dead". Albert and Franz meet the Count. Franz gets a...

Reshaping Iraq After the Defeat of the Islamic State
Keywords:IraqISISSaddam Hussein
Posted By: thegreatmiddleeast 06.11.2017
Iraq's anti-ISIS war is quickly drawing to an end. ISIS fighters are routed and Iraqi sovereignty over territories, held by the Islamic State from June 2014, has been re-imposed. This, in itself, sounds like a great success and probably a new beginning for the Iraqis.
Yet, the future looks fraught with dangers, unless serious efforts to create a unified Iraq through reforms are initiated. An equally Herculean task is to skillfully balance the roles and influence of regional and extra-regional actors, not to let them use Iraq as an open turf for power contestations.
Iraq's future, in a nutshell, depends on its ability to avoid the Lebanonization of domestic politics (a breakdown of the political process due to conflicts over power-sharing and the choice of who would be put in a particular powerful position) and external Balkanization syndrome (domestic or regional fragmentations that threaten a state).
Fragmented domestic political process
Iraqi political process, since its creation in 1932 under the shadow of the infamous Sykes—Picot Agreement of May 1916, has witnessed a three-way competition between the Shias, the Sunnis and the Kurds. They have jockeyed and jostled against each other for power and influence along ethnic, religious and sectarian lines. Consequently, no national political party has ever developed to represent Iraqis across ethnic or religious divides or to unite all Iraqis from a single national platform. There was, and is, an Iraqi state, not truly an Iraqi nation.
Long Ba'athist rule under Saddam Hussein (1979–2003) badly affected Iraq's cauldron of ethnic and religious tensions. Saddam created a highly centralized state structure, pursued the policy of Arabization to assimilate the non-Arabs, mainly the Kurds, into the mainstream culture and preferred the over-representations of minority Sunnis in all important centers of state power (defense, oil resource, council of ministers etc.). The Shias and the Kurds were deeply alienated.
The Kurds were victimized most: they suffered heavily at the hands of Saddam's Sunni government (the 1988 chemical attack on the Kurdish town of Halabja being the most notorious example); they also currently face the wrath of the Shia-dominated Iraqi government for holding the pro-independence referendum on September 25, 2017. The referendum revealed the Kurds' deep distrust in both the Shias and the Sunnis. Their regional autonomy in northern Iraq, what is officially dubbed Kurdistan Regional Government, came more as a gift from the Americans for collaboration with the invading U.S. forces to dismantle the Ba'athist regime. Previously, the U.S.- and UK-imposed no-fly zone over northern Iraq in the wake of the 1991 Gulf War made Kurdistan a de facto state.
The rise of the ISIS brought significant territorial gains for the Kurds over Kirkuk, a multiethnic province rich in oil resources, but the Iraqi army's recent push to drive Kurdish Peshmerga forces out of Kirkuk has curbed their aspirations for independence for good. It has also checked similar moves forSunni independence project by Sunni Arab tribes in the northwestern provinces of Ninevah, Anbar and Salah al-Din.
Despite the elimination of ISIS fighters and the defeat of Peshmerga forces in Kirkuk, Iraq is nowhere close to fostering a sense of national identity. Shortagesof interethnic and intrareligious understandings, social synergy, the culture of coexistence, and social cohesion to prevent social fragmentations are acute. Keeping Iraq united and unified is the biggest challenge for Iraqi prime minister Haider al-Abadi. In fact, a post-ISIS Iraq may prove more dangerous than an Iraq with ISIS presence.
A good way to start forging that national identity may be via a commonly agreed power-sharing arrangement. Back in 2007, the United States proposed to introduce a federal system of government in Iraq to decentralize power and transfer resources to the federating units. The then Shia-led Nouri al-Maliki government and the Sunni leaders strongly criticized the idea as they viewed it as a violation of Iraqi sovereignty. The Kurds favored federalism as the only way to guarantee their historical and cultural identity in Iraq.

Bernie Sanders: Marginalized Democratic progressive politicians agree: Clemency for Snowden!
Marginalized Democratic Progressive Politicians Agree: Clemency for Snowden!
Nine out of 10 Bernie Sanderses agree.
I've got a new interview today with former Montana Gov. Brian Schweitzer, the most bold possible challenger to Hillary Clinton in a 2016 primary. You can have your Elizabeth Warrens (legitimately not interested) and your Martin O'Malleys (too boring): Schweitzer is willing to consider a campaign, as long as he doesn't have to depend on dirty money to do it. How else will he get the Democratic Party to sound like he wants it to sound? For example, while Hillary Clinton remains silent, Schweitzer is endorsing clemency for Edward Snowden.
If Edward Snowden is a criminal, then so are a lot of people that are working within the CIA and the NSA who have been spying illegally on American citizens. They ought to grant Snowden clemency.
Via the Burlington Free Press, I see Sen. Bernie Sanders has discovered the same hymnal.
The information disclosed by Edward Snowden has been extremely important in allowing Congress and the American people to understand the degree to which the NSA has abused its authority and violated our constitutional rights. On the other hand, there is no debate that Mr. Snowden violated an oath and committed a crime. In my view, the interests of justice would be best served if our government granted him some form of clemency or a plea agreement that would spare him a long prison sentence or permanent exile from the country whose freedoms he cared enough about to risk his own freedom.
Sanders and Schweitzer find themselves representing my favorite kind of populism: rural, anti-government progressivism, the sort that trusts the state as a tool of economic fairness but admonishes it for interfering in people's lives. What are the odds that Snowden himself remains a political topic in, say, May 2015, when Democratic candidates for president start debating? No idea. But with this one answer, Schweitzer and Sanders have codified the proper liberal position on spying, for voters who don't reflexively defend the president.

it works fine. but how do i make it display the correct field name of the error? right now when there is an error detected on client side, the clientValidateAttribute() displays
{attribute} is an invalid number.

instead of
Total orders is an invalid number.

where Total orders is the input field that is in valid.
Any idea how to fix this?

A: I rechecked this in the Yii documentation, and it seems you have to add an array with parameters to replace the placeholders in your string. But if you only use the default placeholder for the attribute, it should work by default.
Do you have only the problem on client validation? Because I now checked also the Yii code, and it seems that your code is right, and should work (at least the server validation). But in the client validation you just pass the error mesasage to JSON without any processing, so the {attribute} is not replaces anywhere.
Try to add this to youc client validation before the return
$params['{attribute}']=$object->getAttributeLabel($attribute);
$error_message = strtr($error_message,$params));

An innovative Year 8 project, "Globally Called" has been initiated at San Clemente High School, Mayfield.
"Called to Act Justly" and "Globalisation" are topics in the Year 8 Religious Education and Geography programs respectively, and this Lent, teachers and students combined classes and explored the notion of being "Globally Called". The culmination of the initiative was the presentation of the students' learnings over the period of the unit. Each group had studied the activities Caritas was undertaking in selected communities: Peru, Nepal, Indonesia, Niger, Fiji and Indigenous Australia. The students set up 'stations' which included video displays, maps, photos, handouts, carefully considered slogans and even homemade biscuits! "Globally Called" links learning across key learning areas. Students undertake 'real life' assessment that connects with the broader community, including the Dominican Sisters who founded San Clemente, Caritas Australia and Catholic Schools Office personnel. Students are developing the critical skills such as problem solving, collaboration, critical and creative thinking, that the 21st century demands.

England's social care workforce shrinks for first time in 10 years | Social Protection
The social care workforce has shrunk for the first time in nearly a decade despite rising demand and congested hospital beds fueled by a shortage of care places.
England is expected to need nearly 500,000 more care workers by the middle of the next decade, but last year there was a net drop in the workforce of 50,000, leaving around 165,000 vacancies, according to new figures from Skills for Care.
Care experts said the crisis revealed the 'absolute crisis' in the face of a system still reeling from the impact of Covid and Brexit. A £500million workforce fund set up by the government last month has been called a 'drop in the ocean' and councils are calling for £3billion to be pumped into better wages and recruitments.
"People's lives and dignity are at risk," said Helen Wildbore, director of the Relatives & Residents Association. "The impact of this is being felt on people who are truly vulnerable and who find themselves without the care and support they need."
Skills for Care found that the quality of care declined with fewer staff.
Chronically low wages are a key issue, with one in five care home workers – most of whom are women and disproportionately black – estimated to be in poverty, according to a separate study by the Health Foundation think tank on earnings data even before the cost of living crisis hit.
Council bosses, who pay some or all of the costs for almost half of care home residents, described the poverty figures as 'incredibly disturbing' and said low wages were affecting the ability of beneficiaries of care to live an equal life.
The average hourly wage for caregivers, £9.50, is currently £1 less than that of entry-level NHS health assistants. This week, jobs are available in Amazon warehouses for people with no previous experience who pay £11.45 an hour for a day shift, rising to £22.90 an hour overtime. Nearly a quarter of care jobs are under precarious zero-hour contracts, compared to 3% in the population as a whole.
Meanwhile, hospitals are having to keep patients on wards longer than necessary as there are not enough care beds and home care packages available, slowing down the provision of other medical treatment.
"Our society needs a step change in the way it values social care and the wonderful people who provide it," said Oonagh Smyth, chief executive of Skills for Care. "We need to talk more about how social services are rewarding to attract more people, and we need to make it easier for people who enjoy working in social services to stay by improving general conditions and investing in their career development. "
As life expectancy increases, the population with dementia – currently 900,000 – is expected to reach 1.6 million by 2040. Staff shortages are also expected to worsen as more than one in four social workers is 55 years of age or older and approaching retirement.
Simon Bottery, social care expert at think tank Kings Fund, said the staffing data revealed the "absolute crisis" of the system. The Kings Fund recently found that nine of the 10 largest supermarkets pay more than the average social worker receives.
"If there aren't enough caregivers, people are left without help with basic tasks like washing and dressing and they're stuck in hospital because they can't go home." , did he declare.
Hugh Alderwick, director of policy at the Health Foundation, said many social workers "cannot afford enough food, shelter, clothing and other essentials".
Rachel Harrison, national officer of the GMB union, which represents care workers, said: 'Without the dedication of our care workers the whole house of cards will collapse. She called for a minimum wage of £15 an hour for carers.
A government spokesperson cited its £500million fund 'to support community discharge and strengthen the workforce this winter, in addition to record funding to support our plan ten-year".
"Tens of thousands of additional staff have also joined since we added social workers to the health and care worker visa and shortage occupations list," they added. "The government is supporting recruitment at home and abroad – with a £15m international recruitment fund and a new national campaign launching soon."

Q: What statistical analysis is appropriate for a before and after design (where participants are not necessarily the same people) I am trying to figure out what is the best statistical analysis for my data.
I looked at two companies in timepoint 1 (baseline) and timepoint 2.
Company A did an intervention, Company B did not (control).
I am measuring whether the worker's wellbeing has changed from time 1 and time 2. Wellbeing is measured using a survey (5-point likert) with 4 subscales. However, the people who participated in the 2nd survey may not necessarily be the same people who participated in the first. My supervisor thinks that repeated measures should still be used because we are looking at the company as a whole, and we wanted to see if the intervention changed something. There is also unequal sample size between the companies and from time 1 to time 2.
I am also using SPSS.
Thank you very much! Any advice would help.

A: I think using a weighted hierarchical regression model makes sense. I would look at outcomes aggregated up to the company level because that's ultimately the question: how can we make companies happier. If this were about employees, the study design would have obviously been tooled to follow employees prospectively and also to randomize the intervention within a particular company (so, say half the employees in company A get motivational interviewing and half do not). But that's not how it was done. It was a "community randomized trial". Average the Likert responses for each time period and company as an observation and use the inverse of the variance of responses as the weight. This gives a total of 4 observations. Don't worry about "sample size", since weights account for that.
In an ideal pre/post analysis you would use a model like the following:
\begin{equation}
\mathcal{E}[\mbox{Score | Time, Company}] = \beta_0 + \beta_1 \mbox{Time}
+ \beta_2 \mbox{Company} + \gamma \mbox{Company} \times \mbox{Time} \end{equation}
Where each of Time and Company are considered a binary variable: Baseline versus follow-up, Company A versus B. And it is the last coefficient $\gamma$ which measures the difference in differences from baseline to follow-up, accounting for differences between general company profile. The "excess" difference in time in Company A is what we call the intervention effect.
However, the issue of correlated data remains. The extent of correlation in baseline to follow-up is a function of how many people are in both samples. The more people in common, the more correlated the pre-post results are... usually. Uncontrolled correlation like this tends not to lead to biased betas, but incorrect standard errors. This tends to lead to inference that is conservative, but I cannot promise that this is the case.
This is simply a matter of you, the analyst, verifying as much as possible to convince readers about the generalizability of results. Was drop-out of baseline participants relatively equivocal between the two companies? Was the number of new-hires also equivocal in the follow-up? Among people whom individually you could verify pre-and-post follow-up, was the results stemming from a correlated data analysis consistent with the findings from the heirarchical one?

Exclusive: Canada pushed for Airbus deal as Bombardier courted China

Setback for China – Trend reversing in favour of India; SFI lands big blow! Know here WHY!
The Canadian government encouraged Bombardier to make a deal with Airbus SE for its CSeries planes to thwart a potential venture with Chinese investors, according to five sources familiar with the matter.
It signaled its preference for Airbus after Bombardier failed to reach an agreement with Boeing Co earlier this year that would have given the U.S. company a stake in the CSeries jetliners, according to the sources. The Canadian government`s role has not been previously reported.
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau`s administration took a calculated risk in steering Bombardier toward Airbus, according to the sources. It helped save a key product for Bombardier and likely resolved a brewing trade dispute with the United States, but potentially set back efforts to improve trade and economic ties with China.
The deal with Airbus came at a critical time for Bombardier. Its $6 billion CSeries program, already losing money, had become the subject of a trade dispute in which Boeing charged in a complaint to U.S. authorities that the jetliners benefited from Canadian government subsidies and unfair pricing.
Bombardier had considered a Chinese partnership as early as 2015, after talks about a possible merger with Airbus became public and fell apart. This year, as negotiations with Boeing over a CSeries partnership faltered and concerns about the future of the program mounted, Bombardier`s interest in a deal with China intensified, two sources said.
The prospect of such a deal raised concern within the Canadian government, two of the sources said, where officials believed jobs or technology could be "siphoned away" to China. They also expressed uneasiness about what some saw as inadequate Chinese safeguards against intellectual property theft.
In a series of calls with Bombardier in August and September, Innovation Minister Navdeep Bains and Trade Minister Francois-Philippe Champagne, as well as senior officials in Trudeau's office, urged Bombardier to contact the European company, the two sources said.
"From the federal government's point of view, anything was better than a link-up with China," according to an Ottawa source. The source said the government suggested to Bombardier that Chief Executive Alain Bellmare reach out to his counterpart at Airbus, Tom Enders.
The government`s efforts eventually helped pave the way for an Oct. 16 agreement in which Airbus took a majority stake in the narrow-body, medium-range CSeries jets for one dollar.
But they also came at a time when Ottawa is pushing for closer economic ties with Beijing. Canada, concerned about Washington's threats to scrap the NAFTA trade deal, wants to bolster relations with China in order to cut its heavy dependence on exports to the United States. Talks between Ottawa and Beijing are ongoing.
Bombardier declined to discuss its CSeries negotiations. Representatives of Bains, Champagne and Trudeau declined to comment. Beijing officials declined to comment. Boeing also declined to comment.
Asked whether Airbus had stepped in because of concerns about China obtaining a stake in the CSeries, Airbus CEO Enders said: "We were obviously not privy to these discussions." AN IMPERFECT PARTNER
Bombardier`s most recent discussions about a Chinese tie-up centered on Comac, a Chinese state-owned firm developing passenger jets, according to a source familiar with the Canadian company`s thinking. Financial terms of any potential deal were not known. Comac did not immediately respond to requests for comment.
Sources said Comac was also among the companies Bombardier held talks with in 2015, along with national aerospace conglomerate AVIC and possibly a state-owned investment fund.
For Bombardier, a tie-up with the Chinese would have offered access to the world`s fastest-growing aviation market, providing a boost to its struggling CSeries program. Bombardier has not a secured CSeries sale in 18 months.
Inside Bombardier, however, executives worried that talks with potential Chinese partners were not moving quickly enough, according to sources.
With discussions stalled, Bombardier approached Boeing last spring, three of the sources said. Bombardier offered Boeing a stake in the CSeries under similar terms to those later offered to Airbus, two of the sources said.
The U.S. company agreed to study the proposal, but eventually decided against it based on its experience with a troubled purchase of Canadian aerospace assets in the late 1980s.
That once again Bombardier`s focus back on a deal with the Chinese - until Ottawa pressed the case for discussions with Airbus over the summer.
Asked why senior Canadian federal officials suggested to Bombardier that it talk to Airbus, the Ottawa source said: "People felt that Bombardier might not have thought of this option, given the collapse of the earlier talks."
Officials from Airbus and Bombardier soon began what would be a series of meetings at restaurants in Paris, London and Munich. The meetings involved only four people - the two CEOs along with another executive from each company. A representative of the Canadian government did not attend.

Alela Diane (Nevada City, Californië, 20 april 1983) is een Amerikaanse singer-songwriter en gitariste. Haar muziek wordt omschreven als New Weird America, folk en "kampvuur-gospel", waarbij ze vooral erg rustige en ingetogen liedjes maakt.

Diane bracht in 2003 in eigen beheer het album Forest Parade uit. In 2004 bracht ze haar tweede album uit, ook in eigen beheer. De liedjes op dit album, The Pirate's Gospel had ze geschreven tijdens een reis door Europa. De plaat viel op doordat alle albumhoesjes door Diane en haar moeder zelf handgenaaid waren. Het album werd uiteindelijk opgepikt door de platenmaatschappij Holocene Music. Deze bracht The Pirate's Gospel in 2006 in de Verenigde Staten uit, en later in Europa. Het album werd door de muziekmedia goed ontvangen. Haar tweede album, To be still, verscheen in 2009. Het derde album Alela Diana & Wild Devine verscheen in 2011. In 2013 gevolgd door het vierde About Farewell.

Diane is bevriend met zangeres en harpspeelster Joanna Newsom, die uit dezelfde stad komt. Beide singer-songwriters maken ongeveer dezelfde stijl muziek.
