The Welsh Assembly Government
The CIO 100 judging panel felt unanimously that the CIO for the Welsh Government and James Thomas at place number 8 demonstrated the transformative zeal, vision and understanding of the real role IT plays in the public sector to shoot into the top 10 and push their Whitehall CIO compatriots out of the leading group.
Dr Gwyn Thomas is CIO for the Welsh Government and Director of Informatics Health and Social Care. "The role I occupy is unique as I am effectively CIO for Wales, which embraces the whole of the public sector," he says. Today's Wales is very different. Financial services, IT, tourism, and action sports are on the ascendancy, while mining and manufacturing are still vital to the economy.
"We are taking a federated IT approach of councils, health boards and academia. They have all agreed to work together because it is about IT, and IT touches all organisations and citizens."
Thomas's complex stakeholder map also includes local authority chief executives and politicians.
He reports to the Permanent Secretary — the Assembly's senior civil servant — and the directors general for health, for social care and children, and for business, economy, technology and science, as well as through to the respective ministers.
But the advantage for him is that the Welsh government has a unified and efficient approach to IT that is not blighted by the problems and overspending seen elsewhere in the public sector. Thomas's role is to deliver a digital Wales that can respond to the nation's changing economic landscape and increasing sense of independence. Thomas says he and his team look at Wales as a corporate entity.
"We are trying to explore new ways of working with organisations," Thomas says.
"He was one of the few people to speak out against Richard Granger's centralised NHS plans and he has been proven right," says Jerry Fishenden before adding that they public service network that Thomas is already rolling out in Wales is ahead of similar plans in England.
"He's smart on influencing and guiding different stake holder groups," observed Neil Ward-Dutton of Thomas' agenda to not have a top down strategy which really impressed the business process management expert.
"His ability to conceptionalise what he wants to do and achieve are very strong. He's also building some hard experience of what will happen in England with the public sector networks," says Richard Sykes.
Mike Altendorf adds, "He's strong on politics, collaboration and the way to get people together. What really impressed me is that he used personification to assess his plans. He's got credentials form the NHS work he's done.
He's right up there in the vision of what a CIO should be, but he's marked down by me as he doesn't have operational strength in this role."
Overall his strength and vision as a CIO and for what public sector technology can achieve pushed Thomas firmly into the top 10.

How to Have a Successful Healthcare Revenue Cycle Management?
All the practices are looking for quick returns with complete avoidance of denials. The only way this is possible is by either out-sourcing to a reputed billing company or by having a perfect in-house biller.
Dead Collections/lost AR Possibility of missed encounter forms, un appealed claim denials, rejections, incorrect billing are more as you have one person only to handle everything single handed Contractually obliged to perform your complete billing process such as appealing, denials, rejections at certain level and we have a team of experts who have expertise in specific area such as A/R team, Denial Management team, Charge Posting Team etc.
The decision by a healthcare practitioner about outsourcing or having in-house biller is faced by every practice sooner or later as the practice grows. It is in the best interest of practice to outsource and improve the cash flow, instead of investing time and money on billing headaches.
Today's revenue cycle processes are quite complex. With the assistance of professional medical billing company, there is guaranteed economic success and compliance with many government regulations. Billing is no longer something that any staff member can do when they have time between patients. The disputes of the internal billing operations can lead to collection shortfalls and non-compliance issues. That is why outsourcing to a professional Practice Management/Billing company makes sense.
The medical practice management software is used to streamline major tasks in your organization. It saves time when checking on patients' insurance eligibility and scheduling appointments. It reduces the effort involved in managing denied claims and in generating reports. PMS easily integrates with an EHR system. It easily helps to set up new patient records and to add information.
Financial reporting & benchmarking – the premium source that lets you compare your financial performance with other practices.
How does PMS help in Revenue Cycle Management?
Paper-based systems are ineffective and medical practices should make the switch to the practice management software. Billing errors impact the revenue of the practice. Therefore revenue cycle management runs smoothly with help of Practice Management software.
This software speeds up the exchange of information as the claims are submitted. It also discovers why a claim was denied and then fixes it and returns the updated information to the insurance provider. PMS easily schedule patients and cuts down waiting time at the reception.
Sufficiently documenting treatment plans reduces claim denials and facilitates faster reimbursement. Managing compliance limits audit risks, fraud, and improves predictive budgeting and forecasting. The prompt communication improves patient satisfaction, enabling data collection and has the potential to improve patient outcomes. This billing and collections give administrators more control over workflow patterns and financial stability.
Why is Revenue Cycle Management important in Healthcare Industry?
The compatible and coordinated systems provide the increased functionality that is required today. The biggest advantage of an integrated system is the ability to offer almost everything needed to manage the billing and scheduling using a single vendor. By combining the two systems, the challenges many independent practitioners face becomes easier to manage. This can lead to more quality time for the patients. Also, there will be greater efficiency in front desk and administration.
At the end of the day, all practices are seeking the same thing – increased revenue and decreased costs. Healthcare revenue cycle management service is the key to staying out of all billing hassles. While each office has its own unique billing needs, consistency in few areas can boost revenues. The right practice management system is the key to achieving the potential efficiencies offered by electronic transactions and workflows. Practice Management System and Revenue Cycle Management go hand in hand. Both complement each other.

we have a lot of contracts in the area of licenses and services. Currently, contract management is organized both centrally and decentrally. This means that a Salesforce is centrally managed, but a business application is decentralized.
This makes administration and transparency very difficult, and high employee turnover increases complexity.
It would also be good to have a report that shows your contracts to a department. Is it possible to display contracts at cost center level or brand level without restricting access to the contracts e.g. via a report?

Int'l efforts needed to ensure education of 500,000 Rohingya kids: UNICEF
Dhaka, Aug 23 (Just News): International efforts are urgently needed to prevent over half a million Rohingya children from falling prey to despair and frustration in Cox's Bazar as they are being denied the chance of a proper education, said UNICEF on Thursday.
In a report marking one year since the start of a huge influx of Rohingya fleeing extreme violence in Myanmar into Bangladesh, UNICEF warned that children living in cramped and rudimentary refugee camps of Cox's Bazar face a bleak future, with few opportunities to learn, and no idea when they might return home.
'If we don't make the investment in education now, we face the very real danger of seeing a 'lost generation' of Rohingya children, children who lack the skills they need to deal with their current situation, and who will be incapable of contributing to their society whenever they are able to return to Myanmar,' said UNICEF Bangladesh representative Edouard Beigbeder.
The report said a huge international aid effort led by the government of Bangladesh has managed to put basic services for the refugees in place. Fears of major disease outbreaks have been averted, at least for now.
Providing education for the sudden influx of newly-arrived children was a huge challenge for UNICEF and its education partners.
By July 2018, some 1,200 learning centres were operating, and almost 140,000 children had been enrolled.
However, there was no agreed curriculum, while classrooms were often overcrowded and lack basic water and other facilities.
A new learning framework, designed to provide children with a higher-quality education, including competencies in literacy, language and numeracy, as well as essential life-skills, is now in development.
The report said the international community should invest in supporting quality education and life-skills for all Rohingya children, especially girls and adolescents who it says are at risk of being excluded.
It also called on the government of Myanmar to ensure that in Rakhine State, where more than half a million Rohingya remain, children from all communities have equal access to quality pre-primary, primary, and post-primary level education.
The report pointed out that a lasting solution to the crisis of the Rohingya requires addressing the situation inside northern Rakhine.
It called for the implementation of the recommendations of the Advisory Commission on Rakhine State, including the recognition of the basic rights of the Muslim population there - covering freedom of movement, the right to access basic services such as health and education, and meaningful livelihoods.
It called on the government of Myanmar to provide protection for Rohingya children and those of all other ethnic groups, and create appropriate conditions on the ground that would allow the voluntary, safe and dignified return of Rohingya refugees to their former communities.
UNICEF has been on the ground in southern Bangladesh since the onset of the crisis as part of a coalition of national and international agencies.
In 2018, the agency appealed for US$28.2million for its work on education for Rohingya refugees.
Just over 50 percent of that has been received so far.

Museum for the Macedonian Struggle (Thessaloniki)
External view
The Museum for the Macedonian Struggle is located in the centre of the city Thessaloniki in Central Macedonia, Greece. It occupies a neo-classical building designed by the renowned architect Ernst Ziller and built in 1893. In its six ground-floor rooms the museum graphically illustrates the modern and contemporary history of Greek Macedonia. It presents the social, economic, political and military developments that shaped the presence of Hellenism in the region. This approach enables the visitor to form a global picture, not only of the revolutionary movements in the area, but also of the rapidly changing society of the southern Balkans and its agonizing struggles to balance between tradition and modernization.

The building[edit]
On 23 August 1890, a huge fire destroyed the southeastern quarters of Thessaloniki. Among the losses was the humble residence that housed the Consulate General of Greece It was next to a little-known church of St. Demetrius, also destroyed by the fire. Both buildings and the site were the property of the Greek Orthodox Community.[1]
Soon, with the insurance money, the donation by Andreas Syngros and the help offered by the Greek government, a sufficient amount was collected to reconstruct the buildings of the Greek community. Among them was a new church dedicated to Saint Gregory Palamas and beside it a magnificent neoclassical residence was built to plans by Ernst Ziller, appropriate for a consular mansion. In discussions that took place between the leaders of the Greek community of Thessaloniki, Andreas Syngros and the Greek consul Georgios Dokos, it was deemed essential for the consulate to remain on the same site in order to facilitate the covert collaboration of the community elders with the consulate. The foundations were laid in September 1892, and work was completed in August 1893. In 1894, it was rented by the city's Greek community to the Hellenic state to house the Greek Consulate in Thessaloniki.
Consular Office of Lambros Koromilas
The term of office of Lambros Koromilas (1904-1907) was of major importance because he organised the special secret services for the Greek Struggle for Macedonia within the consulates, known as the "Centers". The "Center" in Thessaloniki collaborated with the other "centers" in Macedonia and directed operations. It was staffed mainly by officers, who were in contact with local agents and armed bands. They were also in communication with the national committees that were staffed by the inhabitants of Macedonian villages and cities. The Consulate building frequently hosted fighters who entered unnoticed through a side door into the courtyard of the neighboring episcopal residence.
The importance of the work done by the Greek Consulate at that time is corroborated by the testimony of the protagonists in the Macedonian Struggle. The General Konstantinos Mazarakis-Ainian, then working as a "special clerk" at the consulate, reports in his memoirs: "My work began at the Consulate. From morning to midnight I was at work there. I met people coming in from the countryside. A little door in the courtyard communicated with the Cathedral. From there they were able to escape the eyes of the Turkish sentry in front of the Consulate. It was the office of information and advice about resistance against the Bulgarians…"[2]
Alexandros Zannas, scion of one of the most eminent families in Thessaloniki, had been working for the national Greek cause since adolescence. In his memoirs he declared characteristically: "…We were very good friends with everybody who worked there… I used to see them all just about every day, because the secret postal service in Macedonia would stop by our house and usually either I or my brothers would then bring the mail to the Consulate… The letters were brought from the interior by various railway employees…and were handed over to Tsapoulas, a man from our village who owned the coffee shop opposite the railway station. My sister, a primary school teacher, would pick them up from him and bring them home… Then we'd take them to the Greek Consulate…".[3]
The successful activity of Lambros Koromilas alarmed the Ottoman authorities who demanded his departure in 1907. In the years to follow, however, the "Center" continued its task. During the period of the Young Turks, when the national struggle was being conducted by political representatives, the Greek internal organization was careful to act in secret, revealing its presence solely to selected officials.
The Balkan Wars brought victory to Greece and led to the union of Macedonia with Greece. Since the consular service was no longer required, the building was thereafter utilized for other purposes. In 1915, the Agricultural Bank of Macedonia operated on its ground floor and basement. In 1917, for a period of three years, it provided temporary accommodation to the National Bank of Greece until its branch, which was destroyed in the great fire that struck the city that same year, could be rebuilt.
In 1923, the 23rd Primary School was housed in the building. During the German Occupation (1941–1944), the Red Cross distributed food in the basement, and for a few months at the end of the Civil War (1949), the basement was used for the detention of political prisoners. In the decades that followed, it hosted a girls' school, a night school and, since 1970, the 43rd Primary School.
The museum[edit]
Museum of the Macedonian Struggle, Hall B
Αs early as the 1930s, there were thoughts of creating a Museum of the Macedonian Struggle. The Macedonian Educational Brotherhood (1940) and later the Society for Macedonian Studies took an active part in establishing this museum. After the 1978 Thessaloniki earthquake, the building was judged unsuitable to house a school. In 1979, the society of "Friends of the Museum of the Macedonian Struggle" was established and a request made to use the building as a museum. The building was restored and became the Museum of the Macedonian Struggle in 1980, and was inaugurated in 1982 by Konstantinos Karamanlis, the Macedonia-born President of the Hellenic Republic and descendant of a fighter of the Macedonian Struggle
Since 1999 the museum has been run by the "Foundation for the Museum for the Macedonian Struggle". With the new century the Foundation has initiated, in addition to its exhibition and publishing activity, new educational programmes and technologically innovative applications.
The museum is open Tuesday to Friday 09:00-14:00, Wednesday 18:00-20:00, Saturday and Sunday 11:00-14:30.
The collection[edit]
The museum's collection consists of rare 19th and 20th century artifacts related to everyday life in Macedonia, the weaponry and personal objects of fighters, as well as rare original documents from the period between 1770 and 1912. Part of the collection is displayed in the permanent exhibition, while the remaining artifacts are kept in the Research Center for Macedonian History and Documentation (KEMIT) and used in the Museum's periodic exhibitions.
Traditional Macedonian costume from Alexandreia
Ecclesiastical relics
Military Equipment and an issue of the newspaper ΜΑΚΕΔΟΝΙΑ (MACEDONIA)
Costume of a Macedonian Fighter
The exhibition[edit]
Museum of the Macedonian Struggle, Hall A
The presentation of the historical background in the first two rooms helps visitors understand the unconventional nature of the Macedonian Struggle. Its various aspects, constituent elements and principal actors are presented in the thematic units of the museum's permanent exhibition, and particularly in those rooms devoted to the Makedonomachoi and their actions, to the senior and junior clergy, to the key role of the Greek Consulate-General in Thessaloniki and to the emblematic figure of Pavlos Melas. This is followed by brief units on the Young Turk movement, which marked the formal end of the armed phase of the Struggle with Bulgarian bands, and the Balkan Wars, which marked the end of the Ottoman presence in Macedonia in 1913. A brief documentary informs visitors on later historical developments. In the basement four full-scale dioramas familiarise visitors with every day life in early 20th century Macedonia. The collection of the first floor includes military relics of the Balkan Wars belonging to Greek, Serb, Bulgarian and Ottoman Army. At the lecture room visitors will find a collection of hand-crafted models of vehicles and artillery used by the Greek Army. Furthermore, documentary films on various relevant topics are presented.
Research Center for Macedonian History and Documentation[edit]
In 1988 the museum founded the Research Center for Macedonian History and Documentation (KEMIT) to promote the historical study of Macedonia and of the Macedonian Question in particular. This facility, which houses a specialized library, digitized resources and extensive archival material (Greek and international; public and private), is used by both scholars and students.
KEMIT's archival material dates between 1770 and 1912. Also kept at KEMIT is the photographic archive that contains some 4,000 photographs of the people, cities, towns and villages of Macedonia in the 19th and 20th century.

Q: xargs not working I want all the lines with assert_equal and without amazon.
I tried following but it is not working.
ack assert_equal | xargs ack -v amazon

A: You don't need xargs:
ack assert_equal | ack -v amazon

A: There seem to be a couple of problems with your command.  In the first part:

ack assert_equal

you do not provide a filename, so ack has nothing to process.  In the second part:

xargs ack -v amazon

you are using xargs to provide the results from the initial ack as command-line arguments to the second ack, which is probably not what you intended.  ack is already designed to accept data on standard input, so you do not need to use xargs at all.
Here is a statement that should work better:

ack assert_equal filename | ack -v amazon

or, if you are getting the output from another command, something like:

my_command | ack assert_equal | ack -v amazon

A: ack is not a standard tool in *nix. since you have it, its ok. But if you are on a *nix system which doesn't have it, here's how you can do it
awk '/assert_equal/&&!/amazon/' file

A: this snippet should give you an idea as to what you need to do. The magic is in the -print0 option. Not a direct solution; i'm feeling lazy.
ack -f --print0 --php -G 'scripts' --invert-file-match|xargs -0 ls -l

William Theodore Kim Johnson, Ph.D. a long time scientist and engineer at the Cal Tech Jet Propulsion Laboratory, died September 8th. He was suffering from ALS. Dr. Johnson joined JPL in 1975 and worked there until his death. In the words of one of his colleagues: "Throughout his career, Bill made indelible contributions to design, performance analysis and/or management on just about all of the major radar missions that JPL has built and flown, which is a legacy that few of us can claim."
Dr. Johnson played an important role in the development of the SeaSAT radar, an earth-orbiting satellite, Magellan, a Venus orbiting radar, and Cassini, which created the first ever map of the surface of Saturn s moon, Titan. He worked also with the Italian space agency to develop two Mars sounders, MARSIS (Mars Advanced Radar for Subsurface Ionosphere Sounding) and SHARAD (Shallow Radar) which is flying on the U.S. Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter. More recently Dr. Johnson was involved in the development of the next generation of earth-orbiting synthetic aperture radars.
Bill Johnson was born in Seoul, Korea on August 8th 1938 where his father was serving as a consular officer. Growing up he lived in China, Brazil, Japan, Czechoslovakia, Germany, and Thailand as well as California and Washington DC. He graduated from the University of North Carolina and received his Ph.D. in physics from American University in Washington, D.C.
He enjoyed travel to many foreign destinations and played tennis with friends in his La Canada-Flintridge neighborhood. He was a developer of the most sophisticated of devices, but could always find time to help family and friends whose understanding of computers and other modern gadgets fell short of their ambition.
Bill Johnson is survived by his beloved wife of 37 years, Toni Cavanagh Johnson, Ph.D. two daughters, Taj Chiu of Pasadena and Alexis Johnson Marsh of London, England; a step-son, Matthew Murray of New York City; two sisters, Judith Kampmann of Bend, Oregon and Jennifer Bishop of Santa Monica; and a brother, Stephen Johnson of Arlington, Virginia as well five grandchildren.

OttawaWatch: Conflict and the Extractive Sector
November 15, 2011 by Lloyd Mackey Leave a Comment
One of the least-noted Canadian announcements coming out of last week's Asia-Pacific Economic Co-operation (APEC) meeting in Hawaii, was the intention to implement a project known as Conflict Management and Prevention in the Extractive Sector (COMPES).
Prime Minister Stephen Harper announced the four-year project, suggesting it will "help promote economic growth in Peru by reducing the impact of social conflicts related to the use of natural resources."
His statement followed a bilateral meeting with Peruvian president Ollanta Humala, at the APEC meeting.
As many readers of OttawaWatch will know, any story that speaks of conflict management or resolution catches this writer's attention.
Some Canadian mining companies operate in South America and others would like to join them.
One of the impediments to such activities has related to social unrest that accompanies conflict between political activists and, at times, faith groups, on one hand, and Canadian mining companies, on the other.
To be more specific, faith-based social justice groups sometimes team up with unions whose leaders want to improve conditions for workers or potential workers in Canadian-owned mines.
Various federal ministries, all operating under the aegis of foreign affairs, get into the act. Each ministry has a different set of circumstances to audit.
International Trade, for example, is interested in the economic activity related to the Canadian-owned mines.
Canadian International Development Agency deals with social justice issues. In that capacity the agency often assists faith-based groups who are trying to bring social development and ethical issues to bear in the countries hosting Canadian-owned mines.
The Foreign Affairs ministry, for its part, is responsible for diplomatic relations with the nations in which these mines exist. And they live with the reality that, in many of those nations, including Peru, there are continuing tensions between economically conservative leaders and left-leaning activists. Both sides in many of these conflicts can wax quite militant at times.
That background helps sketch this writer's interest in the COMPES agreement. In short, it recognizes that one of the major roadblocks to economic success for Canadian mining companies operating in such countries as Peru is "conflict management and prevention related to the extractive sector."
Canada's contribution to the cost of the program is just under $5 million over four years. The main activities of the initiative include:
Training and capacity development in conflict management and prevention for more than 1,000 public officials and other stakeholders.
Technical assistance for the creation and implementation of mechanisms and tools to directly address specific conflicts and to reach mutually agreeable and verifiable agreements.
Support for the creation and operation of regional conflict management offices in eight regions.
Support for the creation and operation of multi-sectoral dialogue tables at national, regional and local levels for the construction of an inclusive natural resource development agenda.
There are a few other phrases appearing in the announcement that could be described as either buzzwords or cutting edge thinking, depending on whether the observer is a "glass half empty" or "glass half full" type of person.
Inclusion of the private sector, civil society, local communities, the Peru ombudsman's office and the central and regional governments.
Social conflicts involving the extractive industry have been increasing.
Canada, in addition, is undertaking projects focusing on corporate social responsibility. (That can be translated as: "Canadian mining companies must toe the mark in being both socially and economically responsible. Maximizing profits cannot be the only objective.)
Three other points are worth noting:
Much of the agreement is being implemented under a United Nations Development Program which already has a track record in Peru.
It will tie in with a program known as the Andean Regional Initiative for Promoting Effective Corporate Responsibility in Peru, Colombia and Bolivia.
In the run up to this announcement, the prime minister gave word, a month ago, of the establishing of the Canadian International Institute for Extractive Industries and Development.

Is Alpha-H Skincare Worth the Hype?
What are AHAs and Why Are They in Alpha-H Products?
I find this product quite a great value for money ive still got over half a bottle left and has already lasted me a few months. Whilst i dont find it removes my makeup well it is a great light cleanser that makes my skin feel nice and soft!
I have combination dry skin however I do occasionally breakout from the odd heavy product. This is certainly not one of them, I found this moisturizer perfectly combated by combination skin, it hydrated my dry flaky areas, while not causing breakouts. It also gives you a nice glow the next day like you've just had a mini facial. I have only been using this product for a few weeks and not every day as I like to alternate my active products, but this is a nice easy cream to use with or without a serum underneath. It does have a bit of a tingle on first application but it subsides quickly and doesn't last. Would purchase again.

testing the new operational L5 signal transmitted by the first GPS IIF satellite (space vehicle 1 or SV1 — designated SVN-62 in the overall GPS system), which was launched May 27.
On June 7, 2010, a team of experts from the German Aerospace Center (DLR) and Stanford University in California reported results of their tracking of the first navigation signals from the satellite, the pseudorandom noise code 25 (PRN25) on L1 and L2 — C/A and P(Y).
The U.S. Air Force began transmissions of the first signals on June 5.
The L5 signal is intended for safety-of-life applications, such as civil and commercial aviation or search and rescue. The Air Force says that test transmissions of L5 will continue intermittently, but that SVN62 is currrently set unhealthy, meaning that its signals should not be used for navigation.
To independently verify the signal quality and performance of this new GPS generation of satellites, the research teams used DLR's and Stanford's GNSS monitoring and evaluation facilities to capture and analyze the signals continuously from the beginning of transmissions. These facilities include the 30-meter high-gain antenna at DLR ground station Weilheim (see accompanying photo), the 1.8-meter dish antenna of the Stanford GNSS Monitor Station, and several patch antennas used for GNSS receiver measurements.
The new satellite generation is designed to improve signal accuracy and has an extended lifetime of 12 years. IIF satellites incorporate a new on-orbit reprogrammable processor that is able to receive software uploads for future upgrades of system operation.
Extensive in-orbit tests are planned for SVN1 to compare performance, quality, and operability of this spacecraft with older GPS satellites. Therefore, IIF SV1 is expected to be set healthy approximately around 90 days after launch.
DLR and Stanford will continue the signal tracking and measurements of this new satellite. A detailed analysis will be part of the July/August issue of Inside GNSS issue.

Illegal fishing, driving infraction lead to arrest for Mississippi State player
By Rob DausterApr 20, 2015, 12:52 PM EDT
Mississippi State big man Johnny Zuppardo was arrested over the weekend, according to a report from the Clarion Ledger.
Zuppardo ran a red light while driving on a suspended license, which is precisely the kind of traffic infraction that doesn't matter all that much but will certainly draw a headline for an athlete in the SEC.
Why was his license suspended? Because the 6-foot-11 senior was caught illegally fishing in Hattiesburg.
Welcome to the offseason.
Zuppardo missed last season after tearing his ACL and meniscus. He transferred into the program from Jones County Community College, where he was a three-star recruit in Rick Ray's 2014 recruiting class. Ray was fired last month, and former UCLA head coach Ben Howland was hired to replace him.

Student Nurses' Association Receives Prestigious National Stellar School Chapter Recognition
The Student Nurses' Association (SNA) at UH Manoa received the prestigious Stellar School Award from the National Student Nurses' Association (NSNA) in April 2020. After a year of hard work and collaboration, the SNA board documented five-years of effort to build a strong student-led nursing organization. SNA was one of three school chapters recognized nationally this year and is now one of only 39 nursing schools with the national recognition.
The NSNA Stellar School Chapter Recognition Program recognizes school chapters that demonstrate ongoing involvement in NSNA, including a strong commitment to shared governance and professional development of their students and faculty. SNA at UH Manoa was recognized for their strong collaborative relationship with the school and the many significant ways that SNA members contribute to the school. Additionally, SNA members have provided meaningful service to the community by supporting many community health promotion and cultural events, as well as coordinating blood and bone marrow drives on campus.
"Receiving the Stellar School award really is a highlight of the legacy this executive board will leave behind," said Miki Matsuoka, SNA president and spring 2020 BS in Nursing degree candidate. "This award is a testament to the hard work and the dedication we have all invested into SNA. Some of our board, myself included, will be graduating soon. But we know SNA is a solid organization and we look forward to seeing where the organization grows in the future."
SNA's goal is to provide students with opportunities to develop leadership skills and enhance their professional nursing identity. Members of this student-led organization participate on school committees and plan various community service, social, and scholarly activities for students. All activities carried out by the SNA uphold the six core values of the NSNA, which are Leadership and Autonomy, Quality Education, Advocacy, Professionalism, Care, and Diversity.
"The Stellar School award recognizes the high-caliber of our Student Nurses' Association and student leadership," said Gary Glauberman, PhD, RN, PHNA-BC, NHDP-BC, SNA Faculty Advisor. "The process of preparing the application took more than a year and a remarkable level of commitment. Student leaders of the SNA have really cultivated a spirit of compassion and excellence within their organization. It's so exciting that the students' efforts have now been recognized nationally, and the award is something that all UHM Nursing students can be proud of."
The Student Nurses' Association (SNA) is an academic/professional Registered Independent Organization at UH Manoa. SNA is part of the Hawaii Student Nurses' Association and is an official school chapter of the National Student Nurses Association. Current UH Manoa Nursing students are encouraged to join the SNA.
The 2019-2020 SNA Executive Board Members are: Miki Matsuoka, President; Timothy Takahashi, Vice President; Ju Yon Park, Secretary; Leilani Luis, Treasurer; Theodora You, Marketing Director; Julianne Gonzaga, Digital Media Director; Jediah Arellano, Co-Membership Director; Claire Shigeta, Co-Membership Director; Jasmine Yount, Co-Membership Director; Leah van Lieshout, Delegate; Skyler Adzuara, Committees Director; Myra Pascual, Student Ambassador Liaison; Liberty Alconis, Hawaii Student Nurses' Association Liaison; Brandon Julio, DEN Representative; and Natalie Welch, DEN Representative.

Updated: Rebellion Made 'deliberate' Choice to Avoid VR Violence in Battlezone
By Zeena Al-Obaidi	 On Jan 31, 2016
It's no revelation to say that violence plays a massive role in both the appeal and controversy of video gaming, and both sides stem from the desensitisation of players and their seeking of escapism in a world of death, weapons, and gore. But when it comes to virtual reality (VR), it was clear during a VR panel in London this week that violence will have to take a back seat after CEO of Rebellion, Jason Kingsley, expressed that, in his opinion, it shouldn't feature the same amount as it already does in non-VR titles due to the intensity of immersion.
Kingsley, who attended the 'Virtual Reality: Are you Experienced?' panel curated by Propeller PR and hosted by digital media agency Essence to talk on the panel and showcase Rebellion's upcoming VR title, Battlezone, spoke of Rebellion's stance on violent gameplay in VR, saying, "We made a deliberate choice to turn away from violence." He went on to compare the difference of consideration in VR and non-VR, saying: "With games we turn up to 11 for people, but bring it down to 8 for VR."
Tamara Sword, Founding Director of tech marketing company TRM&C, also made a point during the panel that due to people's want of extreme violence and gore, the industry may get to a point where it experiences cases of Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). When asked to expand on that point, Sword told VRFocus: "We're some way off from PTSD cases from VR – but when processing power enables more realistic, authentic, interactive experiences – it's entirely possible."
Sword believes that experiencing extreme situations in VR will reflect onto real life, saying, "One thing's for sure, what happens in VR won't stay in VR – those experiences we have in VR will bleed out into actual life."
Other guests who spoke on the panel were Karl Wooley, Creative Technologist at Framestore, Kudzai Manungo, Product Management Executive at Thomas Cook, and Shahid Kamal who worked in VR at Sony PlayStation.
For more on what VR industry leaders are saying, check back with VRFocus.
Update: Propeller VR has been in touch to explain that the event was not PR event but instead a panel curated by Propeller PR and hosted by digital media agency Essence. VRFocus apologises for the error.

Ireland has signed up to a range of international and regional human rights treaties and Conventions. Ireland's human rights and equality record under these treaties and conventions is periodically reviewed by independent committees that form part of the United Nations and Council of Europe monitoring framework.
As Ireland's national human rights and equality institution, the Irish Human Rights and Equality Commission actively engages with this process by providing oral and written submissions – called 'parallel reports' – on key challenges for the protection of human rights and equality in Ireland. These UN and Council of Europe reviews result in recommendations addressed to the Irish Government on measures that should be taken to comply with international, European and national human rights and equality law.
This section sets out recent reports to these bodies.
The Irish Human Rights and Equality Commission prepared a detailed report on Ireland's record under the Convention to help inform the Committee Against Torture's assessment of Ireland's performance on combating torture and ill treatment, providing recommendations regarding issues of concern. This report was submitted to the Committee in advance of the State examination.
The UN Convention on the Elimination of all Forms of Discrimination against Women (CEDAW) is an international treaty on the human rights of women and girls, which defines discrimination against women, and lists what states need to do to end discrimination. The Irish Human Rights and Equality Commission prepared a detailed report on Ireland's record under the Convention to help inform the CEDAW Committee's assessment of Ireland, and to highlight gaps in the protection of women's rights in Ireland.
In June 2015, the UN Committee on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights examined Ireland's progress in protecting, respecting and fulfilling rights contained in the International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights (ICESCR). The Irish Human Rights and Equality Commission prepared a report for the Committee, looking at the Irish State's response to the financial crisis and the harsh impact of expenditure cuts on services and supports for some of the most marginalised groups in Irish society, and provided recommendations throughout.
Ireland ratified the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child in 1992. The Convention outlines in detail the standards that apply to the needs of children, and binds States to adhere to these standards. In advance of the hearing, the Irish Human Rights and Equality Commission submitted a detailed report to the UN Committee on Ireland's record under the Convention on the Rights of the Child. The report outlined a range of areas where the State fell short of its obligations under the Convention.
The Universal Periodic Review (UPR) is a unique process which involves a periodic review of the human rights records of all 193 UN Member States.
It provides an opportunity for States to declare how they have improved the human rights situations in their countries.
In 2014, the UN Human Rights Committee examined Ireland's progress in protecting, respecting and fulfilling rights contained in the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights (ICCPR). The Commission prepared a wide-ranging report to assist the UN Human Rights Committee in their assessment of Ireland's compliance with the Covenant.
The Commission's also engages and coordinates with three important international networks: GANHRI, the Global Alliance of National Human Rights Institutions, ENNHRI, the European Network of National Human Rights Institutions and Equinet, the European Network of Equality Bodies.

Macatawa Area Coordinating Council: Federal bike route gets local OK
ANDREA GOODELL
KEY ACTION: The MACC put its stamp of approval on a route for skilled cyclists through West Michigan. Route 35 — to be part of a federal system of roads designated for bicycle transportation — still needs state Department of Transportation approval. The route includes 64th Street in Laketown Township, 160th Avenue, South Shore Drive/17th Street, Central Avenue, the River Avenue bridge and Butternut, then Lakeshore Drive. The MACC also suggested alternate spurs to the state that would take cyclists to Saugatuck State Park, Holland State Park and Ottawa County parks.
Discussion: "There is not going to be a determination who can use paths for the so-called experienced cyclists," said MACC board member Hannes Meyers Jr.
"Skilled cyclist" is a self-determined term, MACC Executive Director Steve Bulthuis said.
"I think you have to let the definition be up to the person," said MACC board member Bill Vanderbilt.
FOR YOUR INFO: A $400,000 grant for brownfield assessments expires Sept. 30, but the MACC has only spent half of that. Officials are working with the Environmental Protection Agency to extend the grant for up to a year. The agency could also expand its marketing of the program to draw in additional sites.
OTHER ACTION: The MACC will again study blue-green algae blooms in Lake Macatawa this summer. A grant will cover the cost of sampling bottles, and the intergovernmental cooperative will coordinate the volunteers. They will weekly test four areas — Dutton Park, mid-Lake Macatawa and two locations along Holland State Park — for microcystin toxin, which causes a skin rash and can be harmful to animals who drink infested water.
UP NEXT: Police Committee meets at noon, June 28, at Riley Fire Station, 131 Riley St., Holland Township.

Spotify's car thing is mind-boggling, but works as advertised
The Spotify Car Thing looks super cute, but it's not the end of my car's infotainment problem! Photo: Florence Ion / Gizmodo
I love my old car. It's officially a teenager – 13 to be exact – but the entertainment arrangement in the dash makes it look a lot older. I have been using the Android Auto app on my smartphone as my car's 'infotainment' system for a long time. Years ago, I ripped the 30-pin proprietary iPod connector out of my glove compartment to expose the AUX port, and later bought a Roav Bolt with the built-in Google Assistant for hands-free connectivity.
Everything worked so well. I would start the car, my Android phone would connect to the Bolt via Bluetooth and the Android Auto app would appear on my phone screen. I then connected the Popsocket to the holder and tapped the play button on the phone to get started on the go. Android Auto provided the perfect marriage between music playback and Google Maps, which I constantly need because I have no sense of direction, even after living in the San Francisco Bay Area all my life.
But then Google announced that it Android Auto phone app was going to be phased out and I panicked. Then I looked at Spotify's Car Thing, a Bluetooth accessory for your phone that plays music. I wasn't quite sure what to expect from this $80 device, which only exists to stream Spotify — there was definitely more to it, I thought. Reader, there is none.

I have been a Spotify Premium user since the beginning. My algorithm has been fine-tuned for the many stages of my life over the past 10 years, and I feel closely locked into my Spotify profile — the same way someone would have felt back in the day with their curated CD mixes and iTunes playlists.
This is why I thought I would take advantage of Spotify's Car Thing. It's something for a service I've been paying for almost 10 years. Spotify requires you to sign up for an invite list to get the chance to buy Car Thing, so I did. About a month later I was approved and smashed the buy button.
The Car Thing can be mounted on any vent with a strong magnet, although a CD slot is included if you prefer to mount it that way. The device has a screen of 3.97 inches, which is not much bigger than my first Android phone, the HTC Incredible. It also has a giant dial in the right corner and a small button on the bottom. It is powered via USB-C from your car's 12V socket with a USB-A adapter, which includes an additional USB slot in the adapter to charge your phone. There are also five additional buttons on the top of the Car Thing that have a navigation function. I'll get to that in a minute.
To its credit, Spotify has created a display that is easy to see even in the glare of the sun. The screen brightens and dims automatically, just like your instrument panel would.
A remote control for your music

To set up Spotify Car Thing, you need to connect your device through your car's speakers. Some newer cars have Bluetooth, which makes it easy (nice for those folks). But my car only has AUX, so whenever I want to go for a ride with the Car Thing, I have to physically connect a headphone adapter to the AUX cable ejected from my glove compartment before I can take off. It adds minutes to my driving time that I'd rather not have to deal with and almost completely knocks me out of this gadget.
Yet I persisted. Spotify Car Thing and I have taken several trips around the Bay Area together. Over the course of about 100 miles, I found myself enjoying having the app I use most often in the front and center behind the wheel. But once you're driving and you decide to change the atmosphere, the Car Thing suddenly feels too complicated to use. You really have to rely on Spotify to deliver the playlist you want before you hit the road.
Those four buttons at the top I mentioned earlier? They're shortcuts that can be customized so that if there's a playlist you update regularly (mine is called 'Everyday I'm Shufflen'), you can pin it. You can also pin a favorite podcast (have you heard of gadgets?). Spotify will lead you to a list of playlists by default. I got playlists for commuting, but I work from home and only use my car to drive around town to run errands, so those playlists aren't for me.
The most frustrating thing about Car Thing is that the volume knob is not intuitive to use while rocking to a playlist. Because I listen in my car via the AUX, the volume is already at the loudest. And when I want to browse songs, I need two clicks on the back button to activate the mode that scrolls through the playlist. Annoyingly, I can't even use it to skip to the next track, which would be a much simpler mechanism than tapping the screen. It's a tricky balancing act when trying to steer the car down the highway.
Spotify does have a kind of digital assistant. You can say "Hey Spotify" to skip a song or queue a particular album. To its credit, it's been the only assistant so far to understand when I asked it to play my "Everyday I'm Shufflen" playlist. The Google Assistant is constantly struggling with that particular task, and it was nice to see Spotify's assistant behind the wheel capable, and that's the only place I really rely on that kind of hands-free interaction.
You can turn off the microphone if you don't want to use Spotify's assistant. The capability is available in the settings panel, accessed via the fifth end button on the top of the device (in the same row as the presets).
I use Spotify for music but not for podcasts, which unfortunately means I can't use Car Thing to listen to my favorites. Car Thing will remain inactive if you want to pipe podcasts from a third-party app on your phone (and the same for music, but if you bought Car Thing you probably already stream on Spotify). Because I had my phone physically strapped to the car speakers, I was still able to listen to my Pocket Casts downloads without any interruption. You'll have to do that manually, so it's one of those things you'd have to stop and manage if you wanted to do it safely.
Everything about Spotify
Unfortunately, Car Thing did not solve my problems. When in use, I drive with two devices mounted against my air vents. Very futuristic! Photo: Florence Ion / Gizmodo
My biggest annoyance with this accessory is that it doesn't do everything I need it to. Car Thing is just a Bluetooth accessory for your phone to play your Spotify library, and that's about it. For a car device, you want some navigation capabilities, and I'm not sure Spotify would ever integrate that into its offering (or work with a third-party mapping app) to make Car Thing more useful. But in the current version, I still have to put my Android smartphone against a ventilation grille to see where I'm going and what the traffic is like. It's almost comical, and it's certainly not what I expected when I started looking for a more streamlined infotainment option.
If you're a Spotify Premium user and deeply entrenched in its ecosystem – I mean you like the playlists it delivers every week, and you don't use other apps to deal with media – then Car Thing might be worth a try. . And to be fair, Spotify makes no promises about Car Thing – just that"Car Thing has one job and doing great." But the days of single-use devices are behind us, especially when it comes to music. The iPhone made the iPod obsolete, and it's clear that Car Thing isn't reinventing the wheel there.
I'm still looking for an app that can replace Android Auto on my phone when Google phases it out for good. Until then, my trust Roav Bolt will have to get the job done.

of Brouwer's fixed point theorem, but is it true?

A: No.  I believe the first counterexample is from:
Kinoshita, S. On Some Contractible Continua without Fixed Point Property. Fund. Math. 40 (1953), 96-98
which I unfortunately can't find online.  Kinoshita's example is described on page 127 in this excellent article by Bing, however.
EDIT:  The question has been revised to add the local connectivity condition; as stated, I think the question is open.  If "contractible" is replaced with "acyclic" there are counterexamples dating back to Borsuk, referenced e.g. here; Borsuk's paper, which I can't find online, is:
K. Borsuk, Sur un continua acyclique qui se laisse transformer topologiquement en lui-meme sans points invariants, Fund. Math. 24 (1935), pp. 51-58.
This suggests that if the OP's conjecture is true, it is unlikely to be open to homological attacks.

Q: Adding columns per referance of id in SQL I have searched the answer to this question, but no luck so far.
I this table i want to query from:
mainId     secondaryId
----------------------
01000        02000
01000        02001
01000        02002
01001        02003
01001        02004
01002        02005

I want my query to return this:
mainId     secondaryId_01     secondaryId_02     secondaryId_03
---------------------------------------------------------------
01000        02000               02001               02002
01001        02003               02004
01002        02005

How can i do this, the most simple way?

A: You can use row_number() & do aggregation :
select mainid,
       max(case when seq = 1 then secondaryId end) as secondaryId_01,
       max(case when seq = 2 then secondaryId end) as secondaryId_02,
       max(case when seq = 3 then secondaryId end) as secondaryId_03
from (select t.*,
             row_number() over (partition by mainid order by secondaryId) as seq
      from table t
     ) t
group by mainid;

A: You can try using PIVOT  - it'll work in sql server
with cte as
(
select mainId,secondaryId,row_number() over(partition by mainid order by secondaryid) as rn
from tablename
)

select mainid, pv* from
cte pivot(max(secondaryid) for rn in ([1],[2],[3]))

or You can try using conditional aggregation
select mainid, max(case when rn=1 then secondaryid) as secondaryid_01,
max(case when rn=2 then secondaryid) as secondaryid_02,
max(case when rn=3 then secondaryid) as secondaryid_03
from cte
group by mainid

Why do engines get dirty?
Engines become dirty due to modern day stop-and-go traffic conditions, as well as imposed speed limits, fuel quality, new anti-pollution requirements, and driving at low speeds to save on gas.
These symptoms manifest in the form of saturated EGR valves, clogged DPF filters, and dirty turbochargers.
In the past, it was possible for drivers to clean their engines through normal highway use. High speeds equal hot temperatures, which enables self-cleaning engines. However, this is no longer possible given modern traffic conditions.
After many years of development, we have innovated the most advanced and economical technology to clean your engine from the inside out.


Anti-Communism Is a Hate Crime?
Residents in West Seattle, Tacoma and beyond discovered fliers citing a white nationalist hate group in their neighborhoods Sunday, prompting police to investigate who is responsible for the littering.
They included a URL citing the website for Patriot Front, a white nationalist organization labeled a hate group by the Southern Poverty Law Center.
I have no idea whether the Patriot Front is a "white nationalist organization" or not, but being condemned by the SPLC, itself a far-left hate group that is notorious for libeling those with whom it disagrees–or being condemned by anyone else–obviously has no legal significance.
Tacoma police confirmed the same fliers turned up — about 30 to 50 of them — in the 5800 block of McGhee Street Sunday morning. Two neighbors collected them and reported the incident to the Tacoma Police Department, Sgt. Loretta Cool confirmed Monday.
The Anti-Defamation League Pacific Northwest tweeted Monday that the fliers were also left in Redmond, Edmonds and Bellevue.
Seattle police have not linked the fliers to any specific people, but ask anyone with information to call the bias crimes unit at 206-684-5550.
The bias crimes unit? What on God's green Earth is the crime? Do the Seattle Police Department and, apparently, the Post-Intelligencer think that it is illegal for a group to pass out literature if it has been criticized by the Southern Poverty Law Center? Or do they think there is something about "better dead than red" that could somehow be a "bias crime"?
The ignorance on display here is mind-numbing. Jerome Woehrle has the patience to instruct these bozos on the law at Liberty Unyielding, but really it shouldn't be necessary. The fact that there are people this ignorant in positions of authority, and in the press, is enough to make you cry.

This thesis is based on four field studies and one laboratory study and aims to investigate the naturally occurring bacteria associated with different life stages of malaria mosquitoes and how they are acquired. All studies are based on amplicon sequencing of the 16S rRNA gene.
Every year, hundreds of thousands of people die from malaria. Malaria is a disease caused by parasites, which are spread by female vector mosquitoes of the genus Anopheles. Current control measures against malaria are based on drugs against the parasites and vector control using insecticides. A problem with these measures is the development of resistance, both in the parasites against the drugs and the mosquitoes against the insecticides. Therefore, additional areas of malaria control must be explored. One such area involves the bacteria associated with the vector mosquitoes. Bacteria have been shown to affect mosquitoes at all life stages, e.g. by affecting choice of oviposition site by female mosquitoes, development of larvae and susceptibility to parasite infection in adults. Furthermore, genetic modification of symbiotic bacteria has been suggested as a mean of killing the parasites in the mosquitoes. This thesis is based on four field studies and one laboratory study and aims to investigate the naturally occurring bacteria associated with different life stages of malaria mosquitoes and how they are acquired. All studies are based on amplicon sequencing of the 16S rRNA gene. We found that overall mosquitoes contain different bacterial communities. However, bacteria associated with adults reflect their life history and can predict the origin of mosquitoes. Bacteria in larvae are similar during the developmental stages but vary with breeding site. Also in larvae, the bacteria could be used to predict the origin of breeding site. Some bacteria could be related to the presence or absence of Anopheles around human habitations and the diversity of aquatic bacteria in breeding sites is large, though some taxa are common. Overall, both environmental and host-genetic factors affect the gut bacterial composition in adult females. In conclusion, this thesis contributes to increasing the knowledge of bacterial diversity associated with Anopheles mosquitoes and to provide insight into how the bacteria are acquired, which can be useful in malaria control.


Class 3 is made up of children in year 3 and year 4. Mr K Taylor is our class teacher and Ms Littleford, Miss Marlor and Mrs Hammond are the learning support assistants. We all work together to do the best we can and be the best we can be.
In the classroom we all have our seats; however we move seats for Numeracy and Literacy to work with different groups on different types of activities. We have lots of different ICT resources which we use on a daily basis to enhance our learning. During all our different lessons we also like to use the outside environment to take our learning outside of the classroom.
In the morning we do Guided Reading and Support for spelling, followed by Literacy and Numeracy. In the afternoons we have Topic time which includes subjects such as Science, R.E, P.E, Art, ICT, Geography and History.
In our class we do lots of different learning. We do small focussed group learning, independent learning, and learning all together. This helps us to do our best and enjoy being in our class.
We are continuing with Chess and Choir on a Monday but will also be doing PE on a Monday with Oldham Sport Development.
On Tuesday mornings we also learn French. On Thursday's we are also taking part in the wider opportunities programme where we are learning to play the guitar.
PE days are Tuesday mornings and Wednesday afternoons but it is important that pupils have their PE kits in school at all times during the week as there may be opportunities for further PE lessons as the weather improves outside.
Guitars with Mr Hemmingway will take place on a Thursday morning – all pupils participate in learning to play the guitar and music theory.
Homework will be sent out on a weekly basis on a Wednesday and needs to be returned to school by the following Monday. We will also be sending home weekly spellings to learn and practice every Monday.
Guided reading takes place daily in Class 3 but pupils will still be given a home reading book. Pupils must inform an adult in the class when their reading book needs changing and this will be checked and a new given out.
Every day children may be expected to read and so school reading books should be in red bags.

I'm sad to inform you that I forgot my camera at my boyfriends. So, for the time being, I will have to satisfy myself with pictures from the internet.
Otherwise, I quite liked this product. I didn't dry my skin out, but it made it soft and quite pleasantly smelling. Nevertheless, I won't repurchase.
My opinion: And now for something completely different! I love this product! It smells so gorgeus I could use it instead of scented candles in my room. The essential oils of rice, cinnamon, sage and lemon really give a full aroma. Plus, it does what it promisses. Since I stared using this product I have no (no!) dandruff. And I always had just a little after 4 - 5 days. Some shampoos made it even worse and I only found one other (Nivea) that helped, but it had very bad ingredients. That's why I'm so happy to have found this one. The only usafe ingredient is the alcohol, but it's not at the beginning and I couldn't care less about using alcohol on my hair.
I already repurchased this product and I strongly recommend it to you, too. You can get it at DM for around 5€.
