Medical Errors and Importance of Reporting Research Paper
This study advances reporting medical errors as a viable approach towards the prevention of medical errors. Its recommendations are based on the fact that the existent of unproductive culture of secrecy slows down efforts to eliminate medical errors and conceals the overall goal of improving health care systems. This paper also identifies that reporting medical errors will induce a culture of responsibility among health care practitioners; based on the fact that medical errors can be contained through the introduction of a responsible culture. Despite medical systems being partially to blame for the increased incidence of medical errors, a short-term solution therefore lies in the judgment of health care practitioners to report medical errors.
We will write a custom Research Paper on Medical Errors and Importance of Reporting specifically for you
Up until five years ago, medical errors were not such a widely known issue in the medical profession. Studies done by the Institute of Medicine (IOM) exposed this issue by identifying that American patients who died due to complications developed from medical errors were slated at between 44,000 and 98,000 annually (Henry J. Kaiser Family Foundation, 2010). Most of these complications were preventable. Medical errors are now among the leading causes of death in America, with studies estimating that it may be the fifth or eighth killer factor among American patients (even surpassing other killer diseases such as AIDS, Breast Cancer and traffic deaths) (Henry J. Kaiser Family Foundation, 2010).
Fatal medical errors occur at the rate of 5% to 10% of all inpatient admissions in American hospitals (Henry J. Kaiser Family Foundation, 2010). This prevalence rate is however feared to be much higher because statistics do not encompass unreported deaths caused by medical errors outside the hospital. Some experts have pointed out that the problem lies in the systems in use as opposed to the staff who work in the systems (Farley, 2008, p. 416). Evidence is advanced by reports projecting that less than 3% of hospitals in America are yet to adopt the computerized method of drug ordering systems for example (Henry J. Kaiser Family Foundation, 2010). To make matters worse, the rate of awareness of the effects of medical errors even within the medical fraternity is alarmingly low, with recent research studies done by the Kaiser Family Foundation noting that less than 5% of physicians in America believed that medical errors were a leading medical concern (Henry J. Kaiser Family Foundation, 2010). These statistics show that there is much more to be done to reduce the fatal effects of medical errors. This paper therefore proposes reporting medical errors as a viable approach in reduction of medical errors.
Advantages of Medical Errors
It is predictably true that there are not many advantages associated with medical errors. However, the occurrence of medical errors can be viewed as ground for the improvement of a hospital's capacity to respond to unanticipated outcomes and events. This is not only likely to increase the quality of health care but also improve the level of trust that hospital staff and patients share. The occurrence of medical errors can also increase the level of flexibility regarding policies and procedures that hospitals, health authorities and professionals need to achieve consistency in handling unprecedented medical errors.
Also, the frequent occurrence of medical errors can potentially lead to the development of an ideally safe medical environment because it is likely to bring all stakeholders together in solving the problem. A culture whereby medical workers will be free to share their concerns regarding the actual and potential effects of lurking medical errors will therefore be developed (Clancy, 2008, pp. 318-319). In addition, if medical errors have serious implications, health care workers will be forced to learn from their own mistakes.
Disadvantages of Medical Errors
Common in the event of a medical error is the increased likelihood of lawsuits to the hospital. This often occurs when the patient goes out of his/her way to find a solution to the problem if they are under the impression that health care providers are not adequately catering for their needs. This is often through legal means. If cases of medical errors increase in a given hospital, the institution loses public trust and eventually suffers an image crisis. In worse situations, a hospital may be closed down.
However in a contemporary situation, medical errors have been observed to cause serious physical and psychological effects on its victims. Most often than not, these effects are usually accidental and some even occur out of negligence. In extreme situations, fatalities have occurred either by the administration of wrong treatments or through observation of wrong medical procedures. Some patients have had their lives change because of permanent physical damages to their bodies like loss of limb functionalities while serious medical errors have even caused some patients to slip into commas. These disadvantages are just a tip of the iceberg but the effects of medical errors are more extensive than previously thought. Unfortunately, some of them are concealed by medical personnel (Clancy, 2008, pp. 318-319).
My Position
The true impact of medical errors has been traditionally hindered by secrecy and the fear of reprisal. Reporting medical errors can however change this trend because such errors will be handled in a dignified manner. This will also help in instilling a sense of responsibility among health care workers; eventually reducing the prevalence of medical errors and improving the process of error prevention. This strategy should however be supported by patients, health care workers and hospital administrators for its eventual success (Clancy, 2007, p. 65).
Counter Argument
History notes that medical practitioners are usually embroiled in the dark culture of blame games and shaming incidences which have later led to the development of a culture of secrecy and the fear to be reprieved. Many health care workers therefore often identify that the last person to "touch the patient" was the probable cause of a medical error. With this kind of culture in existence, resistance is likely to be noted if an error reporting system is to be adopted because many healthcare workers are still plagued with the fear of imminent consequences if they report their mistakes to patients or relevant authorities. Additionally, an error reporting system is likely to take a long time before its benefits are comprehensively realized. It is also biased in the sense that it can effectively curb errors brought about by individual mistakes as opposed to mistakes brought about by system errors.
Contrary to popular opinion, it is prudent to disclose errors because research studies have shown that patients often want to know what factors transpire before a given error occurs (Health Quality Council of Alberta, 2006). An emphasis on patients is especially identified because reporting medical errors is categorically beneficial to the patients in particular. A great majority of patients are therefore observed to be satisfied with the reporting of medical errors alone. This system gives more power to the patients because reporting medical errors requires health care workers to brief patients and authorities on everything that occurs before and after the detection of an error. This approach therefore gives patients power to determine the course of events after the detection of an error. Additionally, it creates a comprehensive process whereby patients, health care workers and hospital administrators are included in the betterment of medical error reporting systems. Moreover, this approach enhances ethical conduct in the organization because it is based on firm ethical principles supposed to be undertaken by all health care centers.
Advanced Practice Nurses' Roles Affected
One of the primary roles of a healthcare worker is to offer emotional support to patients in the course of treatment. However, with the adoption of a medical reporting system, this role will be reversed since the workers will require emotional support if they report errors that have adverse consequences on their part. Supporting the health care worker will therefore help health care workers cope better with the adverse consequences. Reporting medical errors also requires health care workers to be knowledgeable about systems in identification, management and reporting of medical errors. This may have role implications because it will be an additional task vested on health workers who may require extra training to carry out the duties.
Reporting medical errors has been traditionally hindered by secrecy and the fear of reprisal. This paper identifies the importance of why such errors should be reported and handled in a dignified manner. Instilling a sense of responsibility among health care workers will reduce the prevalence of medical errors and consequently improve the process of error prevention. This strategy should however be supported by patients, health care workers and hospital administrators for its eventual success. Conclusively, reporting medical errors has a potential high success rate if hospitals can endure its challenges.

Domaine Sainte Cécile du Parc was started by Stéphane Mouton and Christine Mouton Bertoli in 2005. They moved to the Languedoc in southwestern France in 2003 after living in Tuscany for several years. The previous owner of the property had sold his grapes to the cooperative winery in Pézenas, but Stéphane and Christine wanted to make their own wine. Along with Jérôme Debrun, the estate manager, they first undertook a complete examination of the property and vines, keeping the best and planting new where needed, and created a new winery, which saw its first production in 2011. Domaine Sainte Cécile du Parc is currently in conversion to organic grape production, and the 2013 vintage will carry organic certification. First Vine is the first U.S. importer of Domaine Sainte Cécile du Parc wines.
Notes Frivoles is a rosé made from equal parts Grenche, Cabernet Franc, and Carignan and carries the appellation Pays d'Hérault and a further appellation of Pays de Caux, which is more geographically specific to the area around Pézenas. In France, Carignan is generally blended into red wines, since it's an intense (and intensely colored) grape. Using it in rosé gives a slightly deeper dark fruit note to the wine, despite the light color in the final product. Cabernet Franc in red wines has a distinct, somewhat vegetal character that is softened by not leaving the juice on the skin for long in making the rosé. (Most rosés are made from red wine grapes -- since the color is in the skin, longer contact time between the juice and skin gives the wine more color.) What emerges instead is light fruit flavor and a fresh aroma. Grenache, the workhorse red grape of the region, contributes a little earthy flavor. Try it with nearly any food!

Q: How to change login screen background Ubuntu Gnome 15.10 I'm using Ubuntu Gnome 15.10 and my gdm version is 3.16.2. I know that there are a few different threads here and articles at other websites about customizing the login screen in Ubuntu older version,however after try almost everything I am still not able to change my login screen background.Could anyone please help me

A: (Disclaimer: Tested on Ubuntu Gnome Shell 16.04+ Hopefully it should work on 15.10 as well)
Two ways. If you want to know what exactly you are doing, follow Solution #1. If you want a single script to do all for you, follow Solution #2 (All it does it automate Solution #1)
Solution 1
Background Info: Gnome Login Background is not a parameter which you can change directly(Wierd!). Its present within Gnome Shell CSS file which is present in binary file. Hence you have to extract binary file, modify it and replace new binary with old file.
Step1: Extracting Gnome shell binary file
Run the following script extractgst.sh to extract Gnome shell theme to ~/shell-theme directory
#!/bin/sh

workdir=${HOME}/shell-theme
if [ ! -d ${workdir}/theme ]; then
  mkdir -p ${workdir}/theme
fi
gst=/usr/share/gnome-shell/gnome-shell-theme.gresource

for r in `gresource list $gst`; do
        gresource extract $gst $r >$workdir/${r#\/org\/gnome\/shell/}
done

Step2: Modifying contents

*

*Copy your background image to this folder ~/shell-theme/theme.

*Edit ~/shell-theme/theme/gnome-shell-theme.gresource.xml Go to line <file>logged-in-indicator.svg</file> and add another line <file>filename</file> where filename is your background image filename

*Now, open the gnome-shell.css file in the directory and change the #lockDialogGroup definition as follows:
#lockDialogGroup {
  background: #2e3436 url(filename);
  background-size: [WIDTH]px [HEIGHT]px;
  background-repeat: no-repeat;
}

Set filename to be the name of the background image and background-size to your resolution.
Step3: Create new binary and replacing existing
Inside theme directory, run
glib-compile-resources gnome-shell-theme.gresource.xml

You will get a binary file named gnome-shell-theme.gresource. Copy it to
/usr/share/gnome-shell

Now restart GDM using
service gdm restart
If it doesnt work or got stuck, restart your computer to see your new login wallpaper :))
Solution 2
Ok, as promised, there is a simpler way to automate all this. Simply save this script as login-background.sh
WORKDIR=~/tmp/gdm-login-background
GST=/usr/share/gnome-shell/gnome-shell-theme.gresource
GSTRES=$(basename $GST)

mkdir -p $WORKDIR
cd $WORKDIR
mkdir theme

for r in `gresource list $GST`; do
  gresource extract $GST $r >$WORKDIR$(echo $r | sed -e 's/^\/org\/gnome\/shell\//\//g')
done

cd theme
cp "$IMAGE" ./

echo "
#lockDialogGroup {
  background: #2e3436 url(resource:///org/gnome/shell/theme/$(basename $IMAGE));
  background-size: cover;
  background-repeat: no-repeat;
}" >>gnome-shell.css

echo '<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<gresources>
  <gresource prefix="/org/gnome/shell/theme">' >"${GSTRES}.xml"
for r in `ls *.*`; do
  echo "    <file>$r</file>" >>"${GSTRES}.xml"
done
echo '  </gresource>
</gresources>' >>"${GSTRES}.xml"

glib-compile-resources "${GSTRES}.xml"

sudo mv "/usr/share/gnome-shell/$GSTRES" "/usr/share/gnome-shell/${GSTRES}.backup"
sudo mv "$GSTRES" /usr/share/gnome-shell/

rm -r $WORKDIR

if [ "$CREATED_TMP" = "1" ]; then
  rm -r ~/tmp
fi

Run the script using
IMAGE=~/Bat.jpg sh login-background.sh

Now restart gdm using service gdm restart or restart laptop for your new login background :))

A guide to making this recruitment tool a more effective part of your total effort to find good employees.
During a recent telephone conversation, a prominent furniture retailer related the reason why he hated his business. One of his managers quit, and this owner was having the devil of a time trying to replace him, while handling the extra job responsibility himself.
The recruiting had been particularly frustrating. He ran an ad in the local paper for two weeks. In response, he received three applications – two from people who couldn't get past his background check and a third from somebody he had fired just three weeks before.
He was so worn out from the pressure of juggling the missing manager's responsibilities as well as his own that he was thinking about hiring back the guy he fired. No wonder he hated his business.
Another retailer visited our space at the October market. He whispered these words in my ear; "I give up." He had been looking for an operations manager for nearly half a year, but with meager responses to his classified ads in the local newspaper, he was ready to throw in the towel.
While it's a pleasure to do the management recruiting for these retailers, it is a shame to see them so discouraged by the process. Owning a business, by itself, is stressful. Recruiting failures often seem to be the "straw that broke the camel's back."
The biggest problem for these retailers and many others and the primary cause of their frustrations is an over-reliance on classified ads.
Classified ads work – sometimes. For the most part, though, they will generate meager results since the high-end of the talent pool usually is not perusing the classified ads. Classified ads are just one way to recruit; while these ads are often the most expensive method for attracting applicants, they are rarely the most productive.
Most owners know this in their heart of hearts, but sometimes they run the classified just to make themselves feel as if they're doing something. When retailers have a position to fill, they automatically run a classified ad. This reflex is not entirely misguided, but the time has come to examine the whole process of recruiting with a critical eye.
Classified ads do have value. They are the first place people turn to when they start to look for a new position. The problem is that too few talented prospects are actively looking for work. People are always open to improving their situations, but unless they're unemployed, they usually aren't perusing the classified ads on a regular basis. Nonetheless, classified ads are easy to place, and since most newspapers are published daily, your ad gets quick exposure, which could lead to quick response. When time is an issue, newspaper advertising deserves consideration.
Classified ads also provide some residual benefits not related to recruiting. The ad is a vehicle for promoting the positive aspects of your company. It never hurts to give your store and your company a little public-relations exposure.
On the deficit side, classified ads are expensive. In-column ads cost less than display ads, but either one can chew up your recruiting budget in just a few days.
•They are an ineffective way to attract specialized candidates. If you are looking for someone with a particular skill set or specific experience, you are paying a high price to reach a small subset of the people who read the ad. Classified ads are more effective at unearthing the raw materials that you can refine through training and experience.
They are a poor communication tool for a complex message. You are trying to deliver an important message in a small amount of space. This is not easy to do, and it forces you to abbreviate key facts such as the position's requirements and responsibilities as well as your company's culture.
Like any recruiting medium, classified ads yield inconsistent results. Recruiting is not a science as much as an art and a craft. For the cost, though, classified ads may be the least efficient recruiting tool.
Just because there are good reasons why you might not want to rely solely on classified ads, that does not mean that you should not use them at all.
Main qualifications: experience, skills and education.
Description of company culture and working conditions.
Reasons why your company is a good place to work.
Avoid using company jargon or acronyms that few people outside your organization will understand. Be sure to indicate that you are an Equal Opportunity Employer.

Wing Commander: Prophecy
by Proteus4994
Part 16: Flight Log 14 - Lt. Lance Casey
[Flight Log 14 - Lt. Lance Casey]
Another three point Nav patrol mission, escorting the SWACS to do a scan of the alien base. While it wasn't exciting work, it needed to be done, so I figured I'd suck it up and have fun patrolling. At least Maestro was going with me, so I'd have someone to talk to.
When we arrived at the first Nav point, there was resistance, as we figured there'd be. The SWACS began its scan, and informed me that they'd need 90 seconds to finish. So all we had to do was keep the bugs off of him until he was done, and then finish them off. No problem.
I made a mistake that thankfully didn't turn out too badly. I went after a Ray first, thinking it was the biggest thing out there and posed the most danger to the SWACS. I was wrong. As soon as it blew up, I realized my mistake when seven Remoras separated from the floating husk and began swarming around me and the SWACS. They weren't powerful, and they were easily killed, but seven drones attacking the SWACS would put it down easily, no matter what they were shooting. But I collected myself and picked off the Remoras before they could pose a thread to the scanning ship.
At this Nav point, I also got the "privilage" of seeing a ship I had never seen before. Other pilots had told me about the Lamprey, and no one yet had been able to figure out the purpose for it. The cannon it had did a lot of damage to shields, but practically none to the hull, and it was extremely slow. One thing about it, though, was that it could change directions literally instantly. That made me nervous, because while the Lamprey wasn't particularly threatening, the ability to instantly change inertia would be dangerous on another, more heavily armed fighter.
The rest of the mission went about as expected. We ran into a bunch of Rays, but I had learned to attack them last, and one at a time. Besides taking some minor damage to my rear armor at the end of the mission, we had pretty much no difficulty on this mission.
Another day, another dollar. After I checked my mission stats, I began to head towards pilot country for a drink, and then hit the sack. But Stiletto came up and gave Maestro and I some terrible news which killed any plans I had for celebrating.

India's first women's Frisbee team dares to dream
By Laxmi Negi

India's first women's frisbee team is up for the challenge as the World Ultimate and Guts Championship beckons.
Laxmi Negi/Rediff.com takes notes as the players prepare for the competition.

Megna Shankaranarayanan and her team-mates are gearing up for a World Championship.
They train 4 to 5 times a week, somehow managing to balance work and studies, in some cases.
No, these girls are not into professional football, cricket or hockey, but, hold your breath, Ultimate Frisbee.
Yes, Frisbee is a sport, and an Olympic one!

For the first time, India has entered a 20-member national women's Ultimate Frisbee team for the World Ultimate and Guts Championships 2016.
The 'Flying disc' game was recognised as a competitive sport by the International Olympic Committee in August 2015.
What is Ultimate Frisbee?
The goal is to score points by catching a pass in the opponent's end zone. It is a non-contact game and combines the constant movement of soccer and the passing of American football; it is played between two teams of seven.
Unique among sports, it is self-refereed, which is Ultimate's most cherished attribute.
Ultimate Frisbee has grown from hobby to sport and has certainly come a long way. For this Indian team, though, there are still miles to tread.
Most of the girls in the team are professionals in other fields and find time to devote to the sport they love most.
Megana, 28, a consultant, is training hard for the World Championship, which starts in London on June 16.
India's captain, she actively participate in athletics at school and got hooked to frisbee when "people in India generally give up sports."
Bangalore-based Kartika Rajaram, who works in an energy management company, has been playing Ultimate Frisbee for the last eight years.
"I started playing the sport on a trial basis, but today I am addicted to it," the 33 year old says excitedly.
Megana took up the sport at the insistence of a friend whom she met at a wedding.
Explaining why playing Ultimate Frisbee is an "ultimate challenge" in India, she says: "First of all, we are women."
"Secondly, it's sport we talking about, so we will get tanned."
"Then, its a mixed sport (men and women play frisbee together. In a team of seven there should at least be one woman), so most families don't like women and men playing together."
Elaborating on her predicament, this Chennai girl adds: "It is frisbee, not cricket, so obviously we get looks like, 'What sport is that?'."
"We are not professional players (frisbee is professional only in the US), so we are either working or studying. And that makes it impossible for us to juggle work and play."
Her teammate Nima Ponappa is set to get married sometime soon, but her parents' only worry right now is the expenses she will incur on travelling to London for the World Championship, rather than saving for her big day.
Smriti Av from Auroville is a filmmaking and pottery professional, who, at the prompting of her friends, watched her first Ultimate game six years ago and has been hooked since.
Within no time she developed into such a good player that she was the most sought after during tournaments.
"You can learn frisbee very easily, but it is very tough to master," she points out, adding, "A few years ago, during tournaments, players used to field their sisters, friends or relatives in mixed teams -- the ratio of women in the playing-7 used to be 1:6. However, these days there are many women who have taken up the sport."
Stressing on the problems teams faced in the past due to sheer lack of women players, Kartika says, "Frisbee is so athletic and fast that we used to get tired. We continued to play because there were no girls available for substitution. Luckily, things have changed. For the selection camp in Auroville we had almost 150 girls. It was overwhelming to see that number."
Now the sport is slowly attracting audiences. During the 2015 World Championship, matches were shown on huge screens.
"We had a community of 3500 followers. It was like the cricket World Cup for us. We bunked work, snacked on popcorn and soft drinks and watched the tournament," reveals Megna.
The sport is gaining popularity in places like New Delhi, Gujarat, Bangalore, Chennai and Auroville (Pondicherry), and Smriti makes a genuine point in that context.
"Earlier, the mixed teams used to have women for the sake of it," she says. "We were used to filling in the gaps, but these days women are passionate about the sport."
Sixteen-year-old Bhavya Trivedi, the youngest of the pack, butts in.
"Five years ago when I used to say that I play Ultimate Frisbee, I would get the look of 'What is that?!' Now, women are getting started. We are equal on field and it is time to make a difference."
Bhavya, who is the "spirit captain" of this team says, "This sport is taking me to the World Championship. I can't ask for more."
"Most people don't know about the sport," adds Kartika, "but when I tell them about it, I get a 'wow' reaction. There is curiosity about the sport."
When 20 women have set their hearts on participating in the World Championship, no one can stop them from realising their dream.
The team has no sponsor and the players are using their savings to make it to the tournament.
The girls are also attempting to crowd-fund their way to London. So far they have raised more than Rs 35 lakh (Rs 3.5 million), of a targeted Rs 42 lakh (Rs 4.2 million).
With the logistics -- the tickets, visas and accommodation -- in place, they are now focused on the challenge ahead.
"We have set our sights on the tournament. As we meet only at the camp we are focusing on training well for our first international exposure as an all-woman's team," says the captain.
Having overcome all odds to reach where they have, all these go-getters need to do now is dare to dream.

Trump's White House Blasts Bibi for Approving New Israeli Settlements
February 3, 2017 Geopolitics101	4 Comments
A recent statement from the White House has shocked the Israeli hierarchy when it said not to continue building new settlements, or any unilateral actions from both sides that would undermine the two-state solution that the United States has been advocating for the last 50 years.
Trump warns Israel: Stop announcing new settlements
By Michael Wilner
White House official tells 'Post' all parties should cease 'unilateral actions,' affirms two-state solution.
WASHINGTON – The White House warned Israel on Thursday – in a surprising statement – to cease settlement announcements that are "unilateral" and "undermining" of President Donald Trump's effort to forge Middle East peace, a senior administration official told The Jerusalem Post.
For the first time, the administration confirmed that Trump is committed to a comprehensive two-state solution to the Israeli- Palestinian conflict negotiated between the parties.
The official told the Post that the White House was not consulted on Israel's unprecedented announcement of 5,500 new settlement housing units over the course of his first two weeks in office.
"As President Trump has made clear, he is very interested in reaching a deal that would end the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and is currently exploring the best means of making progress toward that goal," the official said.
"With that in mind, we urge all parties to refrain from taking unilateral actions that could undermine our ability to make progress, including settlement announcements," the official added. "The administration needs to have the chance to fully consult with all parties on the way forward."
Trump plans to bring up the peace process in his meeting with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu at the White House scheduled for February 15.
Trump looks forward to those discussions, White House Press Secretary Sean Spicer said in response to this report.
"The American desire for peace between the Israelis and the Palestinians has remained unchanged for 50 years," Spicer said. "While we don't believe the existence of settlements is an impediment to peace, the construction of new settlements or the expansion of existing settlements beyond their current borders may not be helpful in achieving that goal."
On Thursday, Netanyahu reiterated his support for the settlement enterprise and said, during a visit to Ariel, that in the last week alone he had announced the advancement and authorization of 900 homes in that city.
Until now, Israeli officials have not known what to make of Trump administration policy on the issue of settlements specifically and, more generally, on the challenge of Middle East peace: Under Trump's leadership, reference to a two-state solution was removed from the Republican Party platform over the summer, and the president's envoy to Israel has publicly supported the settlement enterprise.
Trump has, however, repeatedly called peace between Israel and the Palestinians the "ultimate deal" – one that he has tasked Jared Kushner, a top adviser and his son-in-law, with moderating.
"I think it's designed to chill some of the exuberance of those on the Israeli Right who think they have a blank check," Dennis Ross, a senior Middle East diplomat and veteran of the George H.W. Bush, Clinton and Obama administrations, told the Post. "I think that exuberance got their attention. I just don't think they want any announcements that will surprise them, and they're still in the process of formulating what their policy is going to be.
"It sounds like they want to convey a pretty blunt message," Ross added.
The Trump administration official did not go as far as to explicitly condemn Israel's settlement activity as "contrary to the pursuit of peace," as the Obama administration had over the course of its tenure. But the White House does appear to believe that settlement activity, at the very least, "undermines" and complicates Trump's efforts to bring both sides to the negotiating table.
"The United States remains committed to advancing a comprehensive final-status agreement between Israel and the Palestinians that results in two states living side-by-side in peace and security," the official said.

The question whether he will issue a blank check for Israeli abuses against the real landlord of the Palestinian lands, has been answered.
Now, we wonder how the protesting Sheeples would react to this one, if they really understand what they are doing.

drbhelthi says:
It is past time for humanity to grasp the facts of the 1948 land-grant by the U.N. that was fraudulently named "Israel". The continued usage of the term "Israel" by Judaism is fraudulent. Judaism was neither one of the 12 tribes of Israel, six thousand years ago, nor developed from one of the tribes. The concept of "Israel" of the New Testament was rejected in toto by Judaism, which claims that Jesus of Nazareth was not the Son of God, but rather the son of a Roman soldier and Mary.
Three scholarly books by prof. Shlomo Sand, univ. of Tel Aviv, reveal the accurate history of Judaism´s "Israel". Professor Sand´s revelations are supported by the scholarly research of Dr. Ashraf Ezzat, documented in, "Egypt knew no Pharaohs nor Israelites", 2015.
In Fall 1947, Judaism´s major terrorist, David Ben-Gurion, began to use Judaism´s army to drive owners from their property, towns and territory that was incorporated into the land-grant of 1948. The U.N. land-grant specified the territory that was awarded to Ben-Gurion and the leadership of Judaism´s terrorist organization. All subsequent territory added to the original "land-grant of 1948" was gained via continuation of Ben-Gurion´s terrorism. Jewish historian Benny Morris documented that Ben Gurion drove 700,000 Palestineans from their properties, murdering thousands. For details, search the internet with the phrase_ Ben Gurion: We Must Expel the Arabs and Take Their Place
Several entries will appear. The entry by counterpunch com is accurate.
The historical deceptions of Judaism are best described by the saying, "it's easier to fool people than to convince them that they have been fooled". Whether Mark Twain is or is not the source of the saying, intelligent adults recognize its accuracy.

David Friedman as ambassador to Israel and Jared Kushner "charged" with overseeing the Palestinian/Israeli situation is proof that Trump has no intention of being fair. Same old song and dance.

#PedoGate #PizzaGate Update – 70 Politicians & Elites In D.C., NYC, VA, To Be Arrested Next Week! February 3, 2017
This information compiled by AscensionWithEarth.Com
DOJ / FBI Insider – PizzaGate Anonymous (ID: vUCvjosj) 02/02/17(Thu)23:48:48 Dropping a small piece of information, take it however you may. I will not provide any picture's for proof as I don't feel like clearing metadata. I likely will not reply back to any questions, unless they are questions I do not mind answering.
Information was finally submitted from the FBI to the DOJ today at 3pm. Mr. Sessions was briefed 3 weeks ago as to the investigation in its entirety. Once assumes his position, arrest warrants will be signed, and arrests will be made. This is also why the Democratic Party in DC has been fighting the Sessions vote. Panic.
Furthermore, starting Monday or Tuesday of next week, you will begin to start seeing arrests of individuals. Over 30 politicians (many are household names), and over 40 other individuals throughout DC, VA and also a handful in NYC. Some may off their selves before they are apprehended, so keep a eye out for that over the weekend, and you will know they are involved in some manner.

Bix Weir – Bix Weir reports 'Child Pedophilia Arrests Begin…The Big Names Will Follow'
My rant last year about Pizzagate and the DC Pedophilia Ring turned a lot of people away from the Road to Roota saying that I was just a "Conspiracy Theorist." But my belief was not based on a political ideology or a hatred of the Democratic Party operatives. It was about saving the innocent children that were are being held captive…at all costs.
Once again, the mainstream media managed to push the news into the pedophilia realm of "Conspiracy Theory" by inventing the term "Fake News" and the social media outlets like Facebook, Youtube and Twitter starting limiting the visibility and discussion of Pizzagate. Even banning people from talking about Pizzagate or Pedophilia on their platform.
How could they do that when the stakes were so high for these children?
Heads should roll when the truth comes out.
Luckily there were honest and brave law enforcement officers that would not cover it up any more and pushed forward with the investigations behind the scenes.
We are starting to see the first results of their investigations as the lower level "facilitators" are starting to be arrested…

All the James Comey election controversy was for a reason. They have all the proof they need. Most people don't know this but FBI Director James Comey was also in charge of the sealed Grand Jury case against Bill Clinton's pardons of the Chief Global Commodity Rigger, Mark Rich, and his flunky Pincus Green who helped Clinton implement/rig the "Strong Dollar Policy" which was mainly the rigging of the gold and silver prices when Bill Clinton was in office.
Oh what a tangled web we weave!
John and Tony Podesta and Comet Pizza owner Jamie Alefantis (aka "J'amie les Enfants" or "I Love Babies" in french) will likely be the next criminal pedophiles to go down. Watch for their "disappearance" from the DC scene of the crime before the word of their arrest gets out.
Most likely they will end up on the Ken Lay Island for Elite Criminals that have suspicious heart attacks right before they go to jail!
After the Podesta's and Alefantis will come 1/3 of the US Congress, Democrats and Republicans alike, so get ready for some rough waters in the Good Ole USA!
Who said this Transition was going to be easy? Before this is shake-up is done the Federal Government will be returned to it's rightful size, TINY, and we will return to State power controlling the United States of America.
I guess that takes the California secession movement off the table because it looks like our Federal Government is going to do it for them!
May the Road you choose be the Right Road.

Quartermaster Second Class Ed Mayer
Veterans Spotlight—Ed Mayer
By WAYNE SOARES
Very few times in life are you afforded the opportunity to meet special people. Such was my pleasure a couple of weeks ago, when I finished a show for the residents at Keystone Place in Buzzards Bay. After my program I had the most delightful conversation with Ed Mayer and his lovely wife, Caroline. One thing led to another. My interview with Mr. Mayer (a World War II veteran) was coordinated by activities director Cathy Smolinski. My heart was warmed from being in the presence of two wonderful people as I sat with them in their beautiful apartment.
Born in the Bronx, New York, Mr. Mayer attended Evander Childs High School. He met Caroline when she was 16 and he was 17. In 1942, at age 20, Mr. Mayer enlisted in the US Navy (he would go on to serve until 1945). After basic training at Great Lakes in Chicago he was assigned to duty in Newport, Rhode Island, then to San Francisco, where he was shipped to New Caledonia in the South Pacific. Mr. Mayer was assigned to the attack transport USS President Adams (APA-19). His first assignment was to the Solomon Islands, where the overall mission was to take the islands and get closer to Japan for the invasion.
Mr. Mayer described his first holiday overseas: "I wrote a few notes. My feeling was of home and all that was there." Ms. Mayer also commented on how difficult it was to stay connected overseas. "They used v-mail back then. It used to come in shreds. The sensors would cut them out for security. I never knew where my husband was."
Mr. Mayer was a quartermaster on his ship. His responsibilities included taking care of the charts and jotting down information, working with the officer of the day and overseeing the his ship's zig-zag pattern. The responsibility was immense and the duty crucial in spotting enemy submarines.
Mr. Mayer recalled the abundance of landings his ship trained for, especially in Guadalcanal and Bougainvillea, as crew members looked to develop airports for planes to fly closer to Japan for bombing missions. Mr. Mayer recalled that "we didn't have many problems with enemy aircraft. Our boys in the air gave us great cover. There were times I was a little concerned, but we knew the Air Force had our backs."
When his ship needed supplies it headed for New Zealand. Mr. Mayer described the country as "very nice, pristine clean. They gave you a great steak and eggs," he recalled with a chuckle.
Mr. Mayer had a few buddies but one that sticks out was a guy from Texas. "We just really liked doing things together. Really enjoyed each other's company," he remembered.
Mr. Mayer said he really liked two initiatives that came out of the war; the Marshall Plan and the GI Bill. He would go on to graduate from Syracuse University with a degree in civil engineering. He and Caroline, his wife of 74 years, would go on to live in Houston, Washington, DC, West Virginia, Maine and Boston.
When asked for his thoughts on his military service, Mr. Mayer (who was honorably discharged with the rank of quartermaster second class) said humbly, "I'm very proud of my service to the country and to helping contribute to the invasion of Japan."
Mr. Mayer will celebrate a pretty big milestone—his 97th birthday—in another week (Caroline is 96). They have two beautiful daughters and four grandchildren. I have met many people, but few have made an impression on me like Mr. and Mrs. Mayer.
Quartermaster Second Class Ed Mayer, thank you for your service to our great country.

Watch this video to see how we assembled a mobile lime dispenser unit for a client. This was a summer drinks advertising campaign. The brief: to produce a unit that would contain limes. It needed to be lightweight and easily portable, as these units were to be used on railway station concourses and in shopping centres. It also needed to be highly visible, with the client's branding - a key requirement for any advertising campaign. We created the structure from lightweight MDF, and added castors for ease of movement. The top was cut from coloured plastic, and the base had ventilation holes to keep the contents in tiptop condition. We printed the vinyl wrap using our in-house printing facilities. A really nifty design element is the large handle in the centre of the unit. As the limes are handed out, the salesperson simply turns the handle to wind the base of the unit up, meaning even the last few limes are easily accessible.

Q: How to query out multiple points from a single feature layer and display them? I have a query that goes through and queries points from a single feature layer. the problem I'm having is that it is only grabbing a single point. How do I get it to grab and display all points with the same name? I am using ArcGIS API for JavaScript.
function getParkFeature(in_park_name) {
    var symbol = new SimpleMarkerSymbol(SimpleMarkerSymbol.STYLE_SQUARE, 10,        new SimpleLineSymbol(SimpleLineSymbol.STYLE_SOLID,
    new Color([255, 0, 0]), 1),
    new Color([0, 255, 0, 0.25]));
    var query = new Query();
        query.where = "COMMON='" + in_park_name + "'";
        query.outFields = ["COMMON","BOTANICAL", "CONDITION"];
        tree.queryFeatures(query, function (featureSet) {
            console.log(featureSet);
            selectedParkFeature = featureSet.features[0];
            selectedParkDisplayName = in_park_name;
            var graphic = selectedParkFeature;
            graphic.setSymbol(symbol);
            graphic.setInfoTemplate(treesInfoTemplate)
            map.graphics.add(graphic);

    var graphicsExtent = esri.graphicsExtent(map.graphics.graphics)
       if (graphicsExtent !== null) {
            map.setExtent(graphicsExtent);
            map.setExtent(graphicsExtent.expand(3))
       }
    });

}

A: You have to loop through the featureSet results :
first add to required lib the dojo/_base/array -> ( Array in callback function )
tree.queryFeatures(query, function (featureSet) {
     map.graphics.clear(); // clear graphics

     Array.forEach(featureSet.features,function(feature){
        selectedParkDisplayName = in_park_name; // unused ??
        var graphic = feature;
        graphic.setSymbol(symbol);
        graphic.setInfoTemplate(treesInfoTemplate)
        map.graphics.add(graphic);
     });

     var graphicsExtent = esri.graphicsExtent(map.graphics.graphics)
     if (graphicsExtent !== null) {
         map.setExtent(graphicsExtent);
         map.setExtent(graphicsExtent.expand(3))
     }
});

Editorial ethics
Procedure for the review of author material
Requirements for articles
Conferences of Gazprom VNIIGAZ
About us / Editorial ethics
With the view of copyright protection, activity of the Vesti Gazovoy Nauki editors bases both upon the principals of international practice and the legislation of Russian Federation (namely, Chapters no. 69–71 of The Civil Code of the Russian Federation). The editorial staff strives for adherence of ethical norms related with authorship, reviewing, editing and publishing of scientific papers at every stage of journal production. Among others we follow guidance of The European Association of Science Editors (EASE), Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE), and the Singapore Statement approved by the 2nd World Conference on Research Integrity (Singapore, July 22–24, 2010).
Ethics of authorship
Researchers should take responsibility for their contributions to all publications, funding applications, reports and other representations of their research. Only a researcher who made considerable intellectual contribution into a paper and is directly responsible for preparation and writing of at least one part of this paper can act in the capacity of its author. If some paper concerns with the results of a collective research work, the list of authors should include all those and only those who meet applicable authorship criteria. Every co-author should feel absolutely certain of professional skills and competences of other co-authors, should keep accurate and complete information about described studies, and should be able to present this information to the editors on demand. Naming as authors those persons who didn't participate in creation of the paper is unaccrptable.
All co-authors are to pass written and signed consents to publication of the named paper in the Vesti Gazovoy Nauki journal to the editorial office.
Authors are initially responsible for novelty and reliability of presented research results and according to it they must:
provide trusted data. Deliberately wrong or false statements are inadmissible;
guarantee originality of revealed facts. Borrowings like direct and circumstantial citations should be accompanied with bibliographic references including obligatory indication of authors and original sources;
acknowledge impact of those persons who in any way have influenced the study. In particular, the paper should contain references to correspondent scientific works;
cooperate with an editor and the publisher during a whole editorial process correcting the paper when necessary;
observe the Copyright legislation. Copyrighted materials belonging to third parts could be reproduced only with permission of the owners;
disclose any conflicts of interests which can influence estimation and interpretation of the manuscript, as well as sources of project funding (namely: grants, state programs etc.) with their obligatory acknowledgement within the manuscript;
inform without delay the editors about all mistakes found in any own paper being suggested for publication, approved for publication or published. In case an error is revealed by third persons, authors must immediately correct it or prove its absence.
Suggested manuscripts must be formatted in accordance with rules listed here. Authors can't simultaneously suggest one manuscript to several journals. Suggesting a manuscript the author must inform the editor about all previous presentations of this work including conferences and data bases. Repeated textual reproduction of previously published own works is unacceptable. Instead the author should only mention this work and give a correspondent bibliographic reference. In case the Vesti Gazovoy Nauki editorial staff discovers a fact of double publication, a correspondent report will be published in the next issue of the journal either with author's explanations, or without them. Besides, this paper will be retracted from vesti-gas.ru and other sites aimed at indexing of publications.
Ethics of reviewing
The scientific-technical collected book "Vesti Gazovoy Nauki" is included into a Minobrnauki of Russia List of reviewed scientific journals where the main scientific results of candidate and doctor theses should be published in respect to the following groups of scientific specialties: terrestrial science, machine-building and theoretical engineering, power engineering, safety of human activities.
The editorial staff guarantees independent, fair, prompt, and closed single-blind reviewing of papers. See the procedure here. Reviewers provide confidentiality of information and respect its ownership and copyright. They must avoid public debating of unpublished manuscripts. Reviewers can't copy received papers or their parts for own purposes, or pass them to third parties without permission of an editor.
Rejected manuscripts are not preserved and stored. Notes of reviewers are not published and not made public in any other way without permissions of paper authors, reviewers and editors.
First of all, a reviewer analyses if the suggested manuscript answers the subject and scope requirements of the journal, then scientific novelty, simplicity and literacy of interpretation, validity and cogency of experimental data, and completeness of bibliographic references are estimated. The reviewers must give honest and objective characteristic of the manuscript, clearly formulate their remarks. All conclusions of the reviewers should be well-reasoned and confirmed with trustworthy references.
If there are any scientific publications which have obviously influenced the discussed paper, but are not mentioned in it, the reviewer should point them out. Also he is to attract editor's attention if there is any considerable similarity to another previously published article which the reviewer is aware of. In case the reviewers challenge validity of data or expediency of paper publishing, the author will have a chance to answer the risen questions.
Basing on the reviewer's report, the editorial board either approves, or rejects the manuscript, or returns it to the author for revision. The editors reserve to themselves a right to reject a manuscript without independent reviewing when the editor in chief or the editorial board concern this manuscript to be of poor quality or unsuitable for the readers of the journal.
Criticism against personality of an author is unacceptable. If a reviewer finds out any conflict of interests or other circumstances interfering with honest and unprejudiced evaluation of the manuscript, he must inform the editors about it. If a reviewer considers himself a layperson in respect to the subject of the suggested manuscript, as well as if he understands that he is short of time, he must refuse to review such manuscript without delay.
Reviewers have no rights to use materials of an unpublished manuscript for his own studies without written permission of its author.
All independent reviewers are aware of the above mentioned requirements and will be informed about any future revisions of editorial policy.
Ethics of editing and publishing
The main mission of the Vesti Gazovoy Nauki journal is to inform a wide circle of scientists and researches employed in the gas industry about the correspondent state-of-art achievements and applications. So, the editorial staff permanently perfects prepress technologies and looks for highly skilled experts, editors and reviewers. The editors guarantee independent and diligent evaluation of all manuscripts without prejudices against national and religious identities of authors, their employment statuses and business interests.
Papers which content contradicts the legislation of the Russian Federation are not published. Also articles suspected of plagiarism and copyright violation could be rejected.
Final verdict on possibility of publication is made by a science editor of the journal, and in written form is announced to the authors. It is inalterable excluding the cases of serious misunderstanding. At the same time dissatisfied authors can repeatedly suggest revised and improved materials for publication.
The editors and the editorial board keep to the above mentioned ethical rules and don't tolerate bad faith in preparation of publications. The chief editor and the editorial staff tend to settle inner conflicts of interests, as well as the conflicts of interest between authors, reviewers and the members of the editorial board. The editors pledge themselves to deal promptly with any claim related to non-ethical behavior of authors and reviewers of manuscripts or published articles regardless of time it has been received and to take adequate measures. In case the stated arguments prove true, the editors can refuse to publish such manuscript, break off further cooperation with the author or the reviewer, publish a correspondent denial, and take necessary measures for prevention of non-ethical behavior of this person in future.
Every claim is studied regardless the time when the related article was approved for publication. Authors have opportunity to answer in written form the questions and to substantiate (explain) contradictions. All documentation and correspondence related to the claim is being stored. The journal publishes the well-reasoned criticism of previously published materials but for conceiving motives to avoid such publications.
The editors guarantee privacy and information security, namely they pledge themselves not to reveal anybody the information about manuscripts and their authors except the enabled reviewers and the publisher.
The editors have a right to make alterations in a manuscript after their concordance with the authors. If doubtless errors or evident misprints are discovered, they can be corrected on an urgent basis if necessary.
On the expiry of a month or less after printing of a particular Vesti Gazovoy Nauki issue the articles from this issue are opened at the vesti-gas.ru site. The e-versions of articles are subjected to all the above listed principles.
The editors can put the articles in total or in parts to disposal of Russian or foreign companies which provide indexation of scientific publications and to place them at www.vesti-gas.ru.
The exclusive copyright for each issue of the Vesti Gazovoy Nauki collected book (within a complete body of an issue) belongs to its founder – the Gazprom VNIIGAZ LLC. Reproducing of published materials without permission of the editors is forbidden. References at citation are required.
The editors don't return to authors received manuscripts and related materials. Author's emoluments and royalties are not paid. All articles are published free of charge.

Q: hibernate @GeneratedValue , how to deal with deleted rows. in mysql @Id
@GeneratedValue(strategy = GenerationType.AUTO)
private int color_id;

the above generates a automatic incremented number like 1,2,3,4,5,6.  But when we delete record with 6 , the next generated number is 7.  but i want next generated number to be 6. what should i do? i need auto increment to continue from 6,7 itself not 7,8 is there any way?

A: What autogeneration guarantee is only unicity of the key. And that's all you should need. There are even cases where autogeneration gives a bunch of keys to improve efficiency with shared databases :

*

*a client asks to create a new row

*a consecutive serie of id is reserved for that client connection

*this client may create many new lines without re-asking database for new ids

This case will almost always generate row id that

*

*contains hole

*id are not necessarily incremented following time of insertion

Trust me : some production systems are glad with it because it causes less contention on network and database.
You are on your own if you want strictly consecutive id with no hole, but do not ask automatic database id generation to do it for you.
