Pearl of a drive by Bec Bartley

The darling of Victorian harness racing, Bec Bartley, couldn't hide her excitement after scoring an all-the-way victory in the Kiel Tiling 2019 Blue Pearl Classic.
Bartley, 27, took out the prestigious, female-drivers-only event at Swan Hill on Wednesday night with classy four-year-old Three Summas, prepared by astute horseman Russell Jack.
"I'm over the moon with the win – just being invited to take part was a huge honor as it's a bit special, but I'm stoked to be successful," Bartley said.
The annual Blue Pearl Classic, now in its third year, is aimed at highlighting the contributions of reinswomen in the sport. The $8000 race also carried a $1000 blue pearl necklace for the winning driver and an inscribed rug for the victorious owner. And keeping with the "girls' night out" theme, talented race caller Victoria Shaw took centre stage and called the event with aplomb.
Bartley, who drove in the feature event last year, said she was reasonably confident after finding the top soon after the start with Three Summas (Somebeachsomewhere - Summa of Dreams).
"I drove him recently at the trials and he is certainly a horse with a bright future ahead of him," she said.
"When I was able to get away with some easy quarters, he was always going to be hard to run down."
Three Summas had a two-metre advantage at the wire over Arden Voyager (Kate Gath, with a short head back to in-form Ouyen 3yo Mallee Reactor (Ellen Tormey).
The first quarter was in a leisurely 32 seconds, but then things hotted up with 29.8, 28.7 and a super slick 26.6 for the final split.
Three Summas now has eight wins and five placings from 16 starts for over $80,000.

Bartley said it was a pleasure to get the win for trainer Russell Jack and owners Todd and Wendy Rivett.
"Russell lives just around the corner from us and I've known him a long time, while the Rivetts are from Swan Hill and just love the sport," she said.
Bartley has been catapulted into the limelight over the past few years through her deeds with brilliant gelding San Carlo.
After dropping out of high school at the end of Year 10, pint-sized Bartley, who could have easily been a jockey, was always going to be involved with horses.
"It's in the family blood and I think it was within three weeks that I had a job with Stephen and Anne O'Donoghue, at Morley Park near Shepparton," Bartley said.
"I've now been with them for 11 years and I can say that I've thoroughly enjoyed every minute of it," she said.
"It's hard to keep at it, as anyone in the industry would agree, but there's always challenges and that's the part I enjoy.
"Whether it's getting a problem horse sorted out and then to the track, or handling and educating a champion like San Carlo, there's that satisfaction at the end."
Bartley is quick to want to talk more about San Carlo...and who could possibly blame her?!
The powerhouse has been on a rampage in country cups, taking the Maryborough, Yarra Glen, Cranbourne and Bendigo feature events in his stride.
But perhaps a little surprising, Bartley names an Interdominion heat win in Perth as her highlight.
"Yes, that does stand out because it was a big experience traveling to Perth, and there was the expectations, the pressure and all that stuff and I still remember the absolute relief when we took out a qualifying heat," she said.
With a big team of 25 horses in work, Bartley's career is testament to the old adage that hard work brings success.
"Some days are harder than others, but I love it and I don't really know anything else but horses."
Hoofnote: Bartley will drive San Carlo in the rich $60,000 Shepparton Cup on Saturday, January 12.

Sudan's rights record showed little change in 2018. Conflicts in Darfur, Southern Kordofan and Blue Nile continued. The National Intelligence and Security Service (NISS) used excessive force to break up protests and arbitrarily detained dozens of activists and opposition party members. The authorities censored the media, confiscated newspapers, detained outspoken critics, and barred key opposition figures from traveling outside the country.
Amid Sudan's ongoing economic crisis, President al-Bashir reshuffled the government twice and the ruling National Congress Party endorsed him to run for another term in 2020. Sudan has made no meaningful attempt to provide accountability for past or current abuses in conflict zones or other serious human rights violations. It has not cooperated with the International Criminal Court (ICC) cases on charges against the president and four other men, of genocide, crimes against humanity and war crimes committed in Darfur.
Conflict and Abuses in Darfur, Southern Kordofan and Blue Nile
Although in July Sudan extended its unilateral ceasefire in conflict zones until the end of the year, its forces, including the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces, attacked over a dozen villages in the Jebel Mara region of Darfur between March and May. Attackers killed at least 23 civilians, destroyed and looted civilian property and caused thousands to flee their homes.
Sudanese forces blocked United Nations-African Union Hybrid Operation in Darfur, UNAMID, peacekeepers and aid groups' access to displaced people and conflict-affected areas on several occasions. More than 2 million people remain displaced due to the conflict between armed opposition and government forces that started in 2003.
Seven years into the armed conflict in Southern Kordofan and Blue Nile, the government and armed opposition have failed to agree on modalities for supplying life-saving aid to civilians in need. Sudanese human rights monitors reported government-aligned militia attacks on civilians in Blue Nile in April.
Crackdown on Protesters
In January and February, security forces violently broke up anti-austerity protests in Khartoum, Omdurman and other towns, arresting hundreds, beating protesters with sticks and hoses, and using tear gas, according to rights monitors.
Security officials dispersed several university student protests across the country, detaining and injuring many throughout the year. In January, security forces shot at student protesters in El Geneina, West Darfur, killing one, and at displaced persons at a camp in Zalingei, in Central Darfur, killing five.
Arbitrary Detentions, Torture
During the wave of protests in January and February, security agents detained hundreds of rights activists, protesters and opposition party members and held dozens for weeks without charge.
Rudwan Daoud, a Sudanese-American activist, was detained for six weeks without charge after security agents arrested him during a protest against government land expropriations.
Activist and vocal critic Husham Ali has been detained without charge by security officials following his deportation in May from Saudi Arabia, where he had been detained since November 2017.
In July, security agents arrested social media activist and sports commentator, Ahmed al-Dai Bushara, at his home in Omdurman and held him incommunicado, without charge, for over two months, releasing him in mid-September.
Detainees were subjected to torture and ill-treatment. A Darfuri student leader, released in late January after five months of solitary confinement, was repeatedly beaten, subjected to electric shocks, threatened with death and rape, and held in harsh conditions. In October, student activist Asim Omer Hassan, who faces charges of killing a policeman during protests in May 2016, was hospitalized after being beaten in Kober prison.
Sudan has failed to investigate allegations of torture by national security officials and has yet to ratify the Convention Against Torture, which it signed in 1986. It retains the death penalty and corporal punishment for numerous crimes.
Malicious Prosecutions, Harassment
In February, a group of nine police in plainclothes raided an apartment where activist Wini Omer – a vocal critic of the public order regime – was meeting three friends, arrested the group, detained them for five days, and accused them of prostitution. On July 24, a prosecutor brought eight additional charges against Omer, including crimes against the state, punishable by death.
A religious teacher in Central Darfur, Matar Younis, arrested in April for criticizing human rights violations by government forces in Darfur, was accused of crimes against the state and espionage. In July, authorities dropped charges and released him.
In November, security officials charged activist Mohamed Boshi with espionage and crimes against the state after he was forcibly disappeared and then extrajudicially returned from Egypt to Sudan in October.
Authorities also barred opposition politicians and activists from traveling out of Sudan and confiscated passports, including of a Darfur Bar Association lawyer returning from an award ceremony in the United States in August.
Restrictions on the Media
In the first week of January alone, security officials seized print runs of eight newspapers because they had covered the anti-austerity protests. Throughout the year they suspended, delayed, or confiscated editions of newspapers for running pieces critical of the president or ruling party, its economic policies, corruption, or other sensitive topics.
During January protests, at least 18 journalists including correspondents of Reuters and AFP were arrested. Most were released the same day but four were held for several weeks without charge; journalist Amal Habani was severely beaten during interrogation. Security officials arrested a group of journalists for protesting a ban on coverage of Omdurman's parliament in October.
Security officials summoned and interrogated editors and journalists, confiscated laptops, and warned them not to cross "red lines." At least one columnist was banned from writing for al-Saiha newspaper. Authorities prosecuted an al-Jareeda editor and journalist for criminal defamation because they had written about corruption in March. Officials sentenced the former editor-in-chief of al-Mustagila newspaper to prison for "false news" for articles published in 2015.
Sexual Violence and Discrimination
Government forces used sexual violence against women and girls with impunity, particularly in Darfur where they have been implicated in widespread sexual violence in the past. In February, the United Nations expert on sexual violence in conflict noted following her visit to Sudan that there is a deep-seated culture of denial around rape.
Sudan's morality and public order laws, which make dress code violations and other personal choice crimes punishable by humiliation and flogging, discriminate against women and girls. In 2016, Human Rights Watch documented how these laws, in combination with security officials' abuses, can be used to silence those who challenge authority
Sudan's laws allow marriage of girls as young as 10 and despite 2015 amendments to the criminal code that clarified the definition of rape, judicial authorities do not recognize marital rape as a crime. In May, Noura Hussein, a 19-year-old woman forced into marriage at 16, was sentenced to death for killing her husband when he tried to rape her. In June, a court commuted the sentence to five years in prison with a heavy fine.
Authorities imposed Shari'ah law on non-Muslims and brought apostasy charges against those who converted to Christianity and minority, or non-Sunni, Muslims. In October, security officials in South Darfur detained a group of Christians for several days, and forced them to renounce their faith. They charged a priest with apostasy. On February 11, authorities demolished an evangelical church building in Khartoum without notice, after previously threatening to demolish 25 churches.
Sudan hosts refugees and migrants from the region and received nearly 200,000 more refugees from South Sudan, bringing the total over 770,000. The notoriously abusive Rapid Support Forces lead its response to migration. Authorities have deported Eritreans, often without giving them an opportunity to apply for asylum. Hundreds of thousands of Sudanese refugees from Darfur, Southern Kordofan and Blue Nile live in camps in Chad, South Sudan and Ethiopia. Sudanese living in Cairo, including refugees, were subjected to harassment, interrogations, and warned of deportation by Egyptian and Sudanese officials.
International Actors
Sudan hosted peace talks on conflicts in the Central Africa Republic and South Sudan, and continued participation in the Arab coalition fighting in Yemen. The US, which lifted economic sanctions in 2017, continued counter-terrorism cooperation and granted visas to the current and former heads of Sudan's draconian national security agency, responsible for torture and other abuses.
The EU continued to support controversial migration programs, widely criticized for encouraging abuses by security forces.
In July, the UN security council adopted plans to dramatically downsize UNAMID and limit the area of operations to Jebel Mara region. The downsizing limits the mission's operational area, but does not extinguish its responsibility for human rights monitoring and protection of civilians in the whole of Darfur. The mission is expected to draw down its presence and has yet to test the Sudanese government's willingness to allow it to return to its former areas of operation to try to fulfill these duties.
In September, the UN Human Rights Council adopted a resolution to continue the work of the Independent Expert on human rights in Sudan for another year, or until a country office of the Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights is operational.
The UN Security Council failed to press Sudan to cooperate with the ICC in the surrender of the five fugitives sought on alleged Darfur crimes, despite having referred the situation to the ICC in 2005. The ICC first announced charges in 2007.

We got home Friday afternoon, so we've been home for a few days. The day we left, we found a tiny kitten, took one last walk along the Sea of Japan, and a squirrel wanted to fight.
We love being in a place that actually has a fall season. Cool weather, beautiful trees! Ahhh, we love it.
One last gaze at the sea.
Before we headed for the airport, we had lunch with our amazing gals, our team, and I showed them pictures of our time.
We had a short layover in Korea, our favorite, and got one last green tea doughnut to share. We realized we would not be traveling this way next time. We slept most of the flight from Korea to LA, except I decided to watch Rock of Ages, but almost passed out due to boredom, so I decided to watch What to Expect one more time because it's so funny–I mostly wanted to hear the one line, "It reminds me of my phantom pregnancy, ahhh," by that really funny blonde lady–she delivered yet again.
When we got home, Andrew's awesome parents picked us up and even had dinner waiting for us. We scooped up our big boy, I hadn't seen a child this size in 6 days! We looked at the pictures of his days with grandma and grandpa and auntie and counsins, boy did this kid have fun!
Today we took him to the pumpkin patch.
So did you know that the 30 day wait is actually now 27 days? 🙂 Every day is a day closer until the day we can go back one last time, and this time we don't come back without them! I have already started packing some things I will need: my moby wrap, some warm hats of Finley's for Elijah, and a few other things here and there. We got Maria's desk in her room (garage sale!) but now I realize I want to paint it white. Once their rooms are all finished, I will post some pictures. All the fun things can happen now. All of my adoption friends say this wait is like nothing, it goes so fast compared to waiting for court, and so far so good!
Paka and pajousta! And thank you for your support and kind words, but mostly your prayers from our court day. We felt lifted up by the spirit literally the entire time we were in court. Words cannot express the gratitude we feel towards old friends and now new friends for walking this road with us on our journey. I don't say this lightly–we love you very much.
Praying the days fly by for all of you!
Thank YOU for sharing the journey!! It has been so inspiring. I have referred many to your blog who are interested in helping the orphans cause! 2 less! Praise God! Your pictures are absolutely stunning as well!

Guest Post - Your daily ray of sunshine!
Mossy Momo writes: Killing brown people for fun and profit ...what, exactly? Anti-vaxxers I just don't get at all. More thorough bad news here. Most of it related to comfortingly tractable problems like multi-generational wars.
Heebie's take: Anti-vaxxers are a mix of malicious players, more or less like Russian disinformation campaigns (and probably intersecting) and gullible dupes who have nameless dread about the world but can't evaluate information sources. It's just so completely awful because it was a solved problem. We had beaten these diseases. And it was deliberately undone for profit and malice.
Mulled whine
I can't recall ever feeling this much dread for a coming year. In the past I've sometimes even looked forward to election season, even if I do get sick of it by the end. (It may have been the optimism of youth.) It's sapping the potential for interestingness of posts.
The mechanical arm that prevents people from driving over the railroad tracks two doors down from our house has been down for over two hours. It's interesting to determine how long cars will wait before giving up and turning around.
I could use some good escapist books. I'm between books right now. The last time I made this request was right after the 2016 election. I suppose I don't feel quite as decimated as I did then. It feels better to be gearing up for a fight than to be bracing yourself for the incoming shitstain-in-chief administration.
Why do we ever change out of sweatpants?
Do the people having the worst go of it, politically, like the detainees at the border or people stuck in jail for the wrong reasons, do they think we all abandoned and betrayed them? Isn't that interesting how I can take their pain and make it about me? Good job, Heebie.
It's like I have two gears: overly structured time and resenting it because I'm tired, or unstructured time where I mull and have trouble getting anything done. I gave my last final exam yesterday and now I'm in the lower gear.
Wow, this is a real mushpot of an entry. Good job, Heebie.
Go Fuck Yourself, Mr. President
Well, it's impeachment day. Who would have thought it would feel so anticlimactic?
Here's Trump's six page rant at Pelosi. (They disabled the highlight feature, so it's a modicum of work to get pull-quotes from it.) I am 100% sure that the writing process went like so: he gave a verbal screed that someone took as dictation, and then they polished it and made it readable, and then they read it back to him, and he said, "No, that's not right" in certain spots, and made them re-write it to match his verbal spewings more closely.
Next the media game will be to predict how many Republican defectors in the Senate there will be. They will make it into a horserace and go into depth on Murkowski and Romney. My prediction is: 0. It will land like a thud.
For some reason, the only part of this that is truly blowing my mind is that Giuliani went back to the Ohio State the Ukraine in the middle of an impeachment hearing.

Surveys by Rozelle's team have found that more than half of eighth graders in poor rural areas in China have IQs below 90
Over the past 70 years, he explains, only 15 countries have managed to climb from middle- to high-income status, among them South Korea and Taiwan. In all those success stories, three-quarters or more of the working population had completed high school while the country was still in the middle-income bracket. These workforces "had the skills to support a high-income economy," Rozelle says. In contrast, in the 79 current middle-income countries, only a third or less of the workforce has finished high school. And China is at the bottom of the pack.
They found that 27% were anemic, an indication of malnutrition; 33% had intestinal worms; and 20% had uncorrected myopia.
nutrition, providing vitamins in the trial's intervention arm. But follow-up tests showed that the supplements had marginal impact and that mental development scores deteriorated in both intervention and control groups.
After mothers left home to work in another city, mental development scores among their children declined significantly
In the intervention group, when the mother was present the baby's Bayley scores rose to normal. But when a grandmother was raising the child, the Bayley score barely budged.
Heebie's take: It's a fascinating article.
Snivel
I went to our housekeeper's daughter's college graduation party yesterday. I totally adore this family. The daughter is going to Mexico for a month or two, and as she and her sister put it, they go back to Mexico when they're low on gas in the tank. They spend time with family, find inspiration, and come back to Texas ready to get back to work. Whereas my friend, the mom, speaks about Mexico with much more practicality. She goes to visit family.
It strikes me that there's a generational ebb and flow to sentimentality, and that I have an excess of it, and am sometimes embarrassed to feel so sentimental about the things that strike my parents as the mundane practicalities. But it's also an internal temperament. Some people just aren't. (I don't know what's wrong with them and why they're not more obsessed with staving off thoughts of mortality.)
Also, one's degree of sentimentality also corresponds to the quality of the past, although not in a universal way: some people have shitty childhoods and cling to the scraps, where other people have shitty childhoods, grab two beers and jump down the inflatable slide, telling everyone to fuck right off.
Of course, being sentimental about the wrong things is just cloying and saccharine. There's a fine art to knowing what to weep over.

Devon Energy unveils plan to reward shareholders
by Adam Wilmoth
Published: Wed, February 21, 2018 5:00 AM
Devon Energy Tower rises above the Colcord Hotel in downtown Oklahoma City. On Tuesday, Devon executives said the company generated a profit of $183 million, or 35 cents a share in the fourth quarter, down from $207 million, or 41 cents a share in the fourth quarter of 2016. [Photo by Doug Hoke, The Oklahoman Archives]
Oil production will grow by more than 25 percent per year in Devon Energy Corp.'s two largest oil fields while the company generates $2.5 billion in cumulative free cash flow, according to a three-year outlook the company unveiled Tuesday.
The forecast also calls for Devon to generate a rate of return of more than 15 percent and sell up to $5 billion in noncore assets by 2020. Devon executives said the plan positions the company for a sustainable increase of cash to shareholders.
"Devon has reached an inflection point by building operating momentum across its U.S. resource plays and has successfully transitioned these world-class assets into full-field development," CEO Dave Hager said in a statement.
"With our disciplined multiyear plan, Devon will accelerate value creation through the pursuit of capital-efficient, cash-flow growth and portfolio simplification, not top-line production growth.
The plan calls for the company to repay up to $1.5 billion of debt. Executives then would "return excess cash flow from operations or divestitures to shareholders through both opportunistic share buybacks and dividend growth," the company said.
Devon's drilling efforts will continue to center on northwest Oklahoma's STACK field and the Delaware Basin in southeast New Mexico and west Texas. The plan is designed to generate "substantial amounts of free cash flow" at domestic benchmark West Texas Intermediate crude oil prices of more than $50 a barrel, the company said.
West Texas Intermediate crude oil closed at $61.90 a barrel Tuesday.
For 2018, Devon executives said the company will spend between $2.2 billion and $2.4 billion on capital expenditures. The budget is designed to boost U.S. production growth by 14 percent in 2018.
2017 production figures, earnings
Production in Devon's top two fields already has increased to 195,000 barrels of oil equivalent per day so far in the first quarter, up 10 percent from the fourth quarter of 2017 and up 20 percent from the full-year 2017 average, the company said.
Overall, Devon produced 548,000 oil-equivalent barrels per day in the fourth quarter, including 246,000 barrels per day of oil, up from total production of 537,000 equivalent barrels per day and oil production of 244,000 barrels per day.
Devon's fourth-quarter production was limited by about 9,000 barrels a day because of the timing of well tie-ins from non-operated wells in the STACK, the company said.
Devon received an average price of $42.21 per barrel of oil and $2.48 per thousand cubic feet of natural gas in the fourth quarter, up from $34.90 oil and $2.23 natural gas in the year-ago period.
Also on Tuesday, Devon executives said the company generated a profit of $183 million, or 35 cents a share in the fourth quarter, down from $207 million, or 41 cents a share in the fourth quarter of 2016. Revenues increased to $3.98 billion, up from $2.81 billion one year ago.
Adjusting for one-time items, Devon reported core earnings of $199 million, or 38 cents a share.
For the full year, Devon posted a profit of $898 million compared to a loss of $1.06 billion one year ago. Revenues were $13.9 billion, up from $10.3 million in 2016.
Devon ended 2017 with $2.7 billion in cash on hand and net debt of $7.7 billion.

The Norwegian industry and academia met last week in Oslo to establish a national association and resource group for deep sea mining.
Exploration of minerals from the deep oceans is an emerging industry which requires competence and technology beyond our existing knowledge, and there are valuable minerals worth billions of USD in our deep oceans.
Based on our industrial knowledge and most advanced technology from the oil and gas sector, Norway is among the very few countries best positioned to develop the deep sea mining industry.
There are still many "unknowns" and uncertainties like the possible environmental effects or which technical solutions are neccessary to develop a sustainable industry as this is indeed uncharted territory.
The resource group will work to strengthen the cooperation between industry, researchers, authorities and other stakeholders in the area of development of deep sea mineral resources.
Norway is about to finalise a new law, regulating the exploration and exploitation of marine mineral resources and the management responsibilities of these resources have been issued to the Ministry of Petroleum and Energy, with operational responsibility given to the Norwegian Petroleum Directorate (NPD). NPD recently announced the first competition for collecting geological data, marking the start of a new era.


My complaint to the Health Service Ombudsman was put with the assistance of Greater Glasgow Health Council. At first, the Ombudsman declined to investigate. The Health Council advised me that I could phone the Ombudsman's Office, which I did, and spoke to a very helpful member of his staff, who advised me to write to them since the matter could always be looked at again. This I did, and this page contains these letters.
Thank you for your completed Ombudsman complaints form which we received on 24 November along with a supporting letter and copy papers from Greater Glasgow Health Council. You complain about the care and treatment your late mother, Mrs. Jane Stewart, received at the Southern General Hospital from 12 March to 17 March 1998; communication failures by clinical staff during her hospital admission; delays during the local resolution of your complaint; and the refusal of the Trust's convener to grant an independent panel to review your complaint. I was sorry to learn of your bereavement and I send you my sympathy.
I have carefully considered the documents that you provided via the Health Council and I have taken advice from the Ombudsman's professional advisers, both medical and nursing, who have reviewed the clinical aspects of your complaint. I regret, for the reasons explained below, that I have decided that the Ombudsman will not investigate your complaint.
First you raised a number of concerns about your mother's clinical treatment; in particular, you were concerned that your mother did not receive the active aggressive treatment you requested. The clinical advice I have been given is that the decision to treat, but not resuscitate, a patient in your mother's condition was reasonable, and that the care and treatment which your mother received was entirely appropriate and in her best interests. In particular the Ombudsman's medical adviser does not consider that it would have been in your mother's interest to put her through the ordeal of intensive care. The Trust have provided you with detailed explanations of your mother's treatment.
You also complain that there were failures of communication by medical and nursing staff. You say that medical staff did not advise you that your mother was unlikely to survive in the long term. I note from the papers you provided that Dr .... has stated that he discussed this matter with you. As there was no witness to the oral exchanges which took place, and both you and Dr .... seem firm in your recollection of what was or was not said, I do not consider that an investigation by the Ombudsman into this aspect of your complaint would be successful in resolving this issue. You raise two other concerns about communication. First you complain that medical staff failed to inform you of their decision not to resuscitate your mother. Secondly, you complain that a member of the nursing staff did not inform the medical staff that your mother had reacted to your voice by squeezing your hand. I appreciate that with regard to these two aspects of your complaint you are not satisfied with the explanations given by the Trust. However, I consider that the Trust has taken these complaints seriously and has adequately addressed them in the chief executive's letter of 23 August 1999.
Taking account of the advice of the Ombudsman's professional advisers, I do not consider that an investigation by the Ombudsman would achieve any more than you have done by your own efforts. Parliament has given the Ombudsman discretion to decide which complaints he shall, and shall not, investigate. In exercising that discretion on his behalf I have decided not to investigate your complaint.
I turn now to the concerns that you have about the Trust's handling of your complaint. You complain that there were lengthy delays during the local resolution of your complaint, and you question the validity of the convener's decision not to grant a review by an independent panel. The Ombudsman can in principle look at the administrative handling of a complaint by the Trust. While the Ombudsman would not condone the delays which occurred, he rarely conducts an investigation which deals only with the administrative handling of a complaint because experience has shown that such investigations are seldom of value to the complainant. The decision on whether to convene an independent review panel is entirely up to the convener once he has taken appropriate advice. It is not up to the Ombudsman to judge whether or not a convener's decision is 'right'. I note that, in reaching his decision, the convener took clinical advice from the Trust's medical director who had already been involved in the local resolution of your complaint. The Scottish Executive Health Department's guidance on complaints handling states that clinical advice at the convening stage should not come from a person who has previously been involved, in any way, with the complaint. While it would have been appropriate for the convener to take clinical advice from a source other than the medical director, in this case I do not consider that a different source of clinical advice would have altered his decision. I have, nevertheless, written to the Trust chief executive to remind him of the need to ensure that complaints are dealt with in accordance with the guidelines.
I am sorry to send what I appreciate will be a disappointing reply but I regret that the Ombudsman cannot help. I have sent a copy of this letter to Greater Glasgow Health Council for information.
Thank you for your letter of 28th January last. I am writing as advised by your office in a recent phone call after receiving your reply to my complaint, when I was told that a more detailed response could be given.
Why was it reasonable to "not resuscitate" when she had already responded to resuscitation at Casualty upon admission and her vital signs were stable with blood glucose levels brought within normal ranges by the day after admission?
Why do your medical advisors consider it was in her best interests not to be put through intensive care and said ordeal? Surely it would have been beneficial to have had respirator use to aid blood oxygen saturation along with better intensive attention, to reduce the likelihood of brain damage. My Mother had displayed generally good signs at Casualty regarding the Central Nervous System with PERLA and symmetrical reflexes. Also Dr ...., as in the letter of 7th April 1999, said that there was no evidence of acute brain injury and that a loss of oxygen for a short time at 46% lowest did not mean that there was automatically a brain injury.
I know that after glucose levels have been corrected, the syringe pump driven insulin infusion is stopped so as to check that the patient's endocrine system is capable of functioning normally, but I feel, as I stated in my request for an Independent Review, that there was a disadvantageous lack of attention on this point.
The British Diabetic Association states rightly that blood glucose levels should be within 4-8 mmol/L between meals and no more than 10 mmol/L after a meal, and although my Mother's levels were reduced, they still remained uncorrected at higher than normal.
In this, I fail to see how the increased stroke risk was apparently not considered by Clinical Staff, in that reduced oxygenation and high blood glucose levels lead to sticky blood. It was after that figure of 18.1 mmol/L that my Mother's pupils became unequal, which is usually a sign of apoplexy.
I have not found the Trust's explanations of my Mother's treatment to be without contradictions and inconsistencies and I ask how your office can consider that the Trust has taken my points on clinical care and non-communication seriously, in the 23rd August 99 letter and the Convener's letter of 10th November 99.
Regarding the lack of communication, the Trust in not discussing resuscitation with me, as Nurse's notes of 16th March 1998 state as to be carried out is surely unfeeling at least, and my views on this issue are being glossed over. The Trust's medical notes indite the Trust with the glaring contradiction shown, as I pointed out in my letter to the Convener under Point One, specifically Mr ....'s, letter of 21st April 1999 and the Nurse's notes of 16th March 1998.
Furthermore, I consider that the failure of a nurse to record my achieved response provided Doctors with false reports. Local Resolution/Convener letters left me wondering what my Mother had to show before she was to be classed as conscious in any way. Any elderly person after bronchopneumonia could hardly be expected to be fully conscious in double quick time. She was wrongly classed as always in coma but was not when she responded to me. She obviously recognised my voice and understood my words. Her memory banks, acoustic nerves, integration centres and primary motor cortex were all functioning. On the Glasgow Coma scale she would have had a higher rating than was ever given to her, and at that point she could never have been classed as unconscious.
and in this total lack of communication they committed their most inhumane act. That act was against, not myself, but my Mother.
They took from her the most important Right of the Dying, which is not to die alone. Doctors assume that because a patient shows no response to their standard tests, that the patient is unaware of everything. In this, they are wrong. Their view should have been that my Mother may have got comfort from my presence, my voice and the touch of my hand, but none of this was considered and I feel very strongly that they need to be taken to task over it and I see no sign of this.
Regarding the Convener's response, I was not surprised to receive a rejection since Conveners are part of the Trust but I am surprised that the Ombudsman apparently has no authority over Trusts/Conveners. It appears to me that if the Ombudsman cannot judge the "rightness" of a Convener's decision, then they can autonomously continue to be biased in their approach and the public will not receive a truly independent fresh approach to their complaints, and their decisions, as I feel in my complaint, will be coloured by wrong advice and an unquestionable acceptance that any practice operated by a hospital is automatically correct.
Thank you for your letter of 17 February to the Health Service Ombudsman further to your complaint against South Glasgow University Hospitals NHS Trust (formerly the Southern General NHS Trust). Having considered the additional information you provided, I propose that the Ombudsman should investigate aspects of your complaint relating to your late mother's clinical care as set out in the enclosed statement, which describes the terms of the investigation.
I also enclose some notes providing general information about investigations by the Ombudsman.
The Ombudsman's investigations can vary considerably in their format and length. Some require no more than a detailed examination of the clinical records and correspondence before a conclusion can be reached. Others require more, including interviews with those involved. At this stage it is not possible to say what form the investigation will take in your case. However the enquiries may take some time and the investigating officer, Ms ...., may need to visit you. If that is necessary Ms .... will either write to you or telephone to make the arrangements. A telephone number where, if possible, you can be contacted during the day would be helpful.
When the investigation has been completed you will be sent a report.
The following page is the Ombudsman's Report.

The proportion of clinical trial operations companies hiring for digital media related positions rose in October 2021, with 39.4% of the companies included in our analysis recruiting for at least one such position.
This latest figure was higher than the 38.8% of companies who were hiring for digital media related jobs in September 2021 and a decrease compared to the figure of 40.8% for the equivalent month last year.
When it came to the proportion of all job openings that were linked to digital media, related job postings rose in October 2021, with 3.4% of newly posted job advertisements being linked to the topic.
This latest figure was the highest monthly figure recorded in the past year and is an increase compared to the 2.3% of newly advertised jobs that were linked to digital media in the equivlent month a year ago.
Digital media is one of the topics that GlobalData, from whom our data for this article is taken, have identified as being a key disruptive force facing companies in the coming years. Companies that excel and invest in these areas now are thought to be better prepared for the future business landscape and better equipped to survive unforseen challenges.
Our analysis of the data shows that clinical trial operations companies are currently hiring for digital media jobs at a rate lower than the average for all companies within GlobalData's job analytics database. The average among all companies stood at 4.1% in October 2021.
GlobalData's job analytics database tracks the daily hiring patterns of thousands of companies across the world, drawing in jobs as they're posted and tagging them with additional layers of data on everything from the seniority of each position to whether a job is linked to wider industry trends.

Getting things crossed of the never ending to-do list of maintenance items for La Mouette seems to be very sporadic. They are not regular events, nor are they in order of importance. They simply get crossed off precisely when they mean to – to paraphrase a famous wizard. And it's a bit like that. During the week or fortnight prior, you plan a particular job and yet, when the weekend finally arrives and goes, the planned job is still on the to-do list. However, eventually, the job does get done and crossed off the list and hence the title of this post. It's a big event and when you cross it off your list, you hear a big "ta-daa" in your mind. Job well done! Just getting it done was a big enough hurdle, probably way out of proportion to what the actual job was.
Over the past few posts I have been banging on about winch maintenance, a long overdue job. We have been trying to get out of the marina and go for a sail but the weather gods have been conspiring against us. Actually, the blame can be laid more on dodgy weather forecasting rather than the capricious nature of gods and other various minor deities. Although, they must take the blame for stuff on more than the odd occasion. It's the modern world we live in, where, when things don't go according to plan, or just plain wrong, it can be attributed more to modern technology not fulfilling its promise rather than old fashioned gods playing around with us.
The app on my phone that I rely on for weather forecasting is WillyWeather. It looks very professional and accurate and you follow it each day to see what will happen on the weekend. For most of the week it looks good but doesn't actually change until the morning of the day. For the last fortnight they have been predicting absolutely crap weather for the weekend and when Saturday morning dawns, despite the sky being overcast, the weekend doesn't turn out too bad. By that stage and after a bit of a sleep in, a slow drive to the marina in Saturday morning traffic, it's too late to get out on the water, so a bit of boat maintenance is in order. This is the scenario that led to the winches getting done on the weekend. We missed a couple of days sailing, but at least the winches will be ready for the next opportunity. Oh, and the batteries got a good charge up also.
Despite having owned La Mouette for a couple of years now, there are still lots of things that come under the "first time" category. Stripping and cleaning the winches was one of those times. Despite having watched a couple of YouTube clips on how to do winches, and read a few articles, it's still not the same as actually tackling the job yourself on your own boat. Assembling all the bits and pieces necessary, it was just a matter of actually getting into the work. First cab off the rank was pulling them to bits. Different brands of winches have different methods. A lot of the videos show some kind of circlip or locking ring, however, on inspection, my winches had a big slotted screw in the top. This came out quite easily and the rotating part where the winch handle clips in also came out quite easily. It's at this stage it starts to get messy with black grease over all the internal parts. As I disassembled it, I took photos with my phone, so I knew where the bits went and then they went straight into a container filled with kerosene.
Stripping it was really easy – there weren't many parts and nothing holding it all together, the bits just fitting into recesses, ie the pawls and springs. The worst part, well almost worst part, but I will come to that shortly, was getting all the old grungy grease off everything and getting it all clean and dry. Once that was done and the bits were all laid out in order, it was time to inspect them and they all looked good – a bit of wear but that's normal for winches that are probably original therefore, forty years old. I am guessing they are original, but you never know. I bought a tube of that really expensive winch grease ($39!!!!) and started putting it all back together again ensuring that the roller bearings had plenty of grease worked well into them. Apparently, the pawls and springs don't get greased as this doesn't make them work as well as they should. You have to buy special pawl oil which I presume is also quite expensive. Not having any, I just used a bit of new engine oil out of an old fashioned oil can. It seemed to do the job nicely.
The absolute scary part of the whole process is getting the little springs back in with the pawls. One wrong move and Ping! The spring disappears, either over the side into the water, or somewhere else never to be seen again. One spring did go ping but I eventually found it. The others all behaved themselves and it seems that the capricious deities were having a relaxing weekend and not doing too much – they could have had a lot of fun at my expense, if they had bothered to come down to the marina!
The winch went back together without too many dramas and was working correctly. Having one winch cleaned and re-greased it was time to tackle the other one. Surprisingly, the first winch didn't take all day. Just an hour or two. To be honest, it's a fairly straight forward disassemble, clean, inspect and reassemble. I have done a lot of this on motorbikes in the past so I did have some idea of what was going on. My BMW motorbike is probably due for a spline lube – a job these bikes need and it's a big, big job as the entire final drive and drive shaft have to come out. A couple of boat winches is infinitely easier! And in due course, the other winch proved quite easy, if not a bit on the messy side.
Ta-daa!! Another job off the to-do list that had been hanging around for ages and we were also able to pick up the outboard from the dealer on Saturday morning after its first service. Another job off the list. But the big question still remains of whether we can get it out sailing in the next couple of weeks or just do more jobs. But more on that next time.


While today's top-line personal computers boast of dual- or quad-core processors to handle complex workloads, experts predict hundreds or even thousands of core processors may be commonplace within the next decade.
That will enable computers to simultaneously perform a vast range of functions only dreamed about today.
But that poses a daunting task for the engineers who must design memory systems to work with these multi-core processors in a quick, energy-efficient and thermally cool manner.
Zhichun Zhu, University of Illinois at Chicago assistant professor of electrical and computer engineering, has been awarded a five-year, $400,000 National Science Foundation CAREER Award to investigate the architecture for building this next generation of computers.
"We have a lot of challenges facing us," she said. "If each core is running an independent application, each will need a piece of memory to store its data and instructions for the computation."
That is going to require a lot of memory, she said. While today's home computers typically have at least a gigabyte of DRAM -- dynamic random access memory -- to do the job, tomorrow's computers may need a terabyte -- that is a thousand gigabytes -- or more. And the memory will not just be DRAM, but an assortment of types.
Keeping this assortment of memory functioning in a way that doesn't consume vast amounts of power, doesn't overheat, and comes in a compact package as consumers demand will require what Zhu calls universal and scalable memory systems.
"We'll need a new memory architecture that can support diverse memory devices that when put together will work as a whole," said Zhu.
The UIC computer engineer will develop software programs to run simulations that test and validate ways to link diverse memory components that work seamlessly together.
Zhu's grant will support a graduate assistant and will involve undergraduate students who will learn of the problems and potential of the upcoming multi-core era, including the need to write complicated parallel computer programs.
Zhu said parallel computing has been around a long time, but was used mainly by computational scientists at large national laboratories.
"In the future, to get the most performance from personal computers, we'll need to go from sequential to parallel applications," she said. "Maybe all undergraduates will need to learn how to write parallel programming instead of just sequential code."


It seems the older we get, the more we start to care about our health and doing what is best for us. For some that includes switching over to a Paleo Diet. Along with a healthy diet, their are many studies showing the health benefits of Dark Chocolate and Cocoa Flavanols found in unheated chocolate.
So the question is, can you eat Chocolate on a Paleo Diet?
Yes! Yes you can. Pure Chocolate without waxes, fillers and processed sugars is really the way to go here. You are already taking the step to keep yourself healthy and fit. Make sure that the chocolate you eat is going to taste fantastic and be chock full of amazing health benefits. Even chocolates found in your favorite health food market will state on the chocolate label or packaging, "Chocolate Liquor". This simply means that the cocoa beans have been ground and are being heated and dutched for days to get rid of the bitterness. This is how traditional chocolate is made. However we don't want traditional dark chocolate with waxes, fillers and chemicals.
What we want is pure unheated chocolate. There is a company that makes a pure "Healthy Chocolate". In fact they are the category creator of Healthy Chocolate. Their chocolate is not heated. This keeps in the antioxidants and cocoa flavanols found in cocoa beans BEFORE they are heated. This is a big deal. I personally enjoy the Beyond Beyond Healthy Chocolate Power Square for a few reasons. It is a small, ladylike piece of chocolate that is 33 calories a piece.
Not only is this delicious Belgian Dark Chocolate but it is honestly good for you as well. So all my Paleo friends will be happy to know that you are able to eat Healthy Chocolate Company Beyond Chocolates. The only questionable chocolate would be the Omega Square. It is quite healthy and has flaxseed for Omega 3's which are vital. However some feel that the Flaxseed is a grain and others a nut although most Paleo diets do include flaxseed. So if this is an issue for you, make sure to choose any of the chocolates except for the Omega Square and the Peanut Butter Cup.
Next time you go to the health food store, don't assume that candy bar in the aisle is good for you just because it's in the store. Make sure you eat Pure Chocolate, like the unheated patented Beyond Beyond Healthy Chocolate. In addition to being grain free, you will find this chocolate to be vegetarian, diabetic friendly, gluten free, low in calories and with available dairy free options as well.
Simply order as a Preferred Customer and have your chocolate delivered right to your door.
When you order monthly, you earn Healthy Chocolate rewards. Every 3 months you order, you get FREE product equal to your monthly order in cost! This is valid every 3rd month for the first year and is a great way to try out all the wonderful varieties of Healthy Chocolates as well as the Xe Energy drink and protein if you prefer. I am also loving the new Remity Focus and Rest & Restore. Rest & Restore has me sleeping like a baby after coaxing me gently to sleep each night. I am in love and have been sleeping better than I have been in years. This would also be a great free product option.

Kimberly Garrison Elected New Student Association President
PLATTSBURGH, NY __ Kimberly Garrison, who ran unopposed for president of the Student Association (SA) at the State University of New York College at Plattsburgh, will take over that position Jan. 1, 2007.
Garrison, a junior anthropology major from Canajoharie, N.Y., served as the SA executive vice president this past year. She is an active member of the campus community and serves as a resident assistant, an orientation leader, student ambassador, Project HELP coordinator and admissions intern. She also serves on numerous committees and councils such as the Alumni Association Board of Directors and the College Auxiliary Board of Directors.
Garrison replaces Michael Cashman, who was the first president of the SA to be elected and serve two consecutive terms. Cashman, who received his bachelor's degree from SUNY Plattsburgh in 2003, will graduate with a master's in student affairs during Winter Commencement on Saturday, Dec. 16.
"The position of SA president means a lot to me because it has been held by some great campus leaders," said Garrison. "It gives me an opportunity to develop myself and others around me as we mature into a group of adults that will be successful in the future. My biggest reason for taking on the position is to work more with the student body to achieve greater student involvement and engagement. People knowing how the SA can assist them through their journey as students here at Plattsburgh can make their experience that much greater."
Garrison said that she is very excited about getting started and plans to hit the ground running.
"Some of my goals for next year are to bring in a consultant to examine the SA's structure and the way that we do things in the SA," she said. "We are also going to be focusing on student involvement and engagement to increase it and make it that much better. I am also looking to work more closely with our campus media to increase awareness of programs that exist both within the SA and amongst their entities as well."
Other SA executive positions went to the following students:
Executive Vice President: Jacob Avery , an adolescence education major from Vernon, N.Y.
Vice President of Academics: John Christman , a history major from Johnstown, N.Y.
Vice President of Activities: Elizabeth Thompson , a communications disorders and science major from Black River, N.Y.
Vice President of Arts: Rachel Bark , a special/childhood music education major from Perry, N.Y.
Vice President of Organizations: Tammy Rock , a history major from Saranac Lake, N.Y.
Vice President of Central Affairs: Angel Acosta , an anthropology major from New York, N.Y.
Vice President of Finances: Ernest Obubah , a finance major from Rockaway Park, N.Y.
Vice President of Student Services: Amanda Belden , a communications disorders and science major from Ticonderoga, N.Y.
Chief Justice of Student Court of Appeals: Leanna Robertson , a biology major from San Fernando, Trinidad and Tobago
Associate Justices: Joseph Murphy , a student affairs graduate student from Cambridge, N.Y., and Nicola Tesheira , a biology major from Trinidad and Tobago
Students also had the opportunity to vote on a referendum in support of a green energy initiative, which, if adopted by the Student Association, would create an optional $3 student fee per semester. The referendum passed by a wide margin with more than 700 "yes" votes of the nearly 1,100 students who voted during the election on Tuesday, Dec. 5.
The referendum was sponsored by the Environmental Action Committee, a student organization on campus. The optional $3 fee would go towards purchasing increased renewable energy resources and carbon dioxide emissions credits. EAC said the fee is expected to raise $20,000 per year and would eventually have a significant impact on our energy consumption footprint. SUNY Plattsburgh would be the second college in New York to initiate such a program.

BANGKOK (Reuters) - The U.N. refugee agency welcomed on Thursday a decision by Thailand to grant Thai citizenship to three boys and their soccer coach from among a group of 13 who were rescued from a flooded cave last month.
The 12 boys and their 25-year-old coach, Ekapol Chanthawong, from the "Wild Boars" soccer team were catapulted into the international spotlight after they became trapped inside the Tham Luang Cave in the northern province of Chiang Rai.
A dramatic, international rescue effort ended on July 10 when they were all brought out safely after an ordeal lasting more than two weeks.
The rescue highlighted the plight of Thailand's "stateless" people, who are often denied rights and opportunities because they are not citizens. Three of the boys and coach Ekapol were considered stateless, even though they were born in Thailand.
The four were granted citizenship on Wednesday.
"By providing these boys and their coach with citizenship, Thailand has given them the chance to both dream of a brighter future and to reach their full potential," Carol Batchelor, UNHCR's Special Advisor on Statelessness, said in a statement.
"By granting them citizenship, Thailand has provided them with a formal identity that will pave the way for them to achieve their aspirations," she said.
Many of Thailand's stateless are part of "hill tribes" living in remote border areas where they have limited access to information, including on how to apply for citizenship.
The 12 rescued boys returned to school this week after all but one of them spent nine days in a Buddhist monastery, a tradition for Thai males who experience adversity.

Eagle Rock and Big Picture Learning Share a Very Common Thread
In the U.S., one student drops out of school every 12 seconds. That's 1,129,291 students so far this school year, according to Big Picture Learning (BPL) – a nonprofit organization that was founded in Rhode Island back in 1995 by Dennis Littky and Elliot Washor, who insisted that education is everyone's business.
In fact, the two men made that the company's motto in their goal to demonstrate that schooling and education can and should be radically changed to the benefit of the student. What these two educators envisioned was an environment where schools would start with a student's interest and build a curriculum around it rather than start with a curriculum and force students to fit in.
And therein lies the common thread between Big Picture Learning and Eagle Rock — a shared belief that students need to be reengaged in their own learning. The founders of BPL believe students should spend considerable time doing real work in the community under the tutelage of volunteer mentors, meaning they wouldn't be evaluated solely on the basis of standardized tests.
That doesn't mean students in Big Picture schools can just take a pass on a formal education. In truth, they still must meet each state or district's requirements for graduation. No alternative or lower, softer standards here.
Rather, Big Picture schools focus on a high school experience that leaves students well prepared for college — and the world of work. In fact, students in BPL schools are held to higher levels of academic and professional standards as they complete their in-school advisory, as well as the real-world work of their internship site.
As a result, BPL students are assessed on their performance — on exhibitions and demonstrations of achievement, on motivation, and on the habits of mind, hand, heart, and behavior that they display — all reflecting the real world evaluations and assessments that all of us face in our everyday lives.
Due to the efforts of Littky and Washor, the state of Rhode Island took a close look at Continue reading…

David Duke backs leading New York Dem for Congress, cites enmity toward "Zionists". #rsrh
Posted on June 21, 2012 by Steve Maley
From the Daily Caller:
David Duke endorses leading New York Democrat
The Democratic Party is facing an awkward problem Thursday because white supremacist David Duke has endorsed a leading candidate in the Democratic Party's primary race for a New York House seat.
Duke says he's endorsing Charles Barron, the leading candidate for the 10th district primary on June 26, because of their shared emnity toward "zionists."
Barron is an African-American city politician who has been slammed as an anti-white racist and as a Jew-hater. However, he's already got the endorsement of the retiring Democratic congressman, Rep. Edolphus Towns.
Duke is a famous racist who ran as a Democrat and as a Republican in multiple Louisiana races during the late 1980s and early 1990s.
He now portrays himself as a supporter of "diversity," and as a non-violent proponent of laws that encourage whites and African-Americans to live separately.
"In an election of limited choices, I think Charles Barron is the better choice [because] there is no greater danger facing the United States of America and facing the world than the unbridled power of zionist globalism," Duke declared in a June 21 video.
But the real enemies, [Duke] said, are "zionists," meaning Jews.
They "want constant conflict between the two groups so they can use a divide and conquer strategy to rule over us all."
Jews, and "the international robber-zio-banks… [and] the zionist clubfed," he said, are "the ultimate real enemies of both our peoples."

Keith Larsen (17 de junio de 1924—13 de diciembre de 2006) fue un actor, guionista, director y productor cinematográfico estadounidense que protagonizó tres series televisivas de corta duración entre 1955 y 1961.

Biografía
Su verdadero nombre era Keith Eric Burt, y nació en Salt Lake City, Utah. Durante la Segunda Guerra Mundial sirvió en la Armada de los Estados Unidos, y tras la desmovilización se dedicó a la interpretación teatral en Santa Mónica (California).

En la temporada televisiva 1955-1956, Larsen protagonizó el papel principal de la serie de la CBS de género western Brave Eagle. El programa era inusual, pues reflejaba el punto de vista de los Nativos Americanos en la colonización del Oeste de Estados Unidos. Los compañeros de reparto de Larsen fueron Kim Winona, Anthony Numkena, y Bert Wheeler.

Durante 1957 trabajó en episodios de tres programas de la CBS, The Millionaire, Playhouse 90, y General Electric Theater, este último presentado por Ronald Reagan.

En la temporada 1958-1959, Larsen actuó en la serie de M-G-M/NBC Northwest Passage, ambientada en la Guerra Franco-india. El reparto lo completaban Buddy Ebsen y Don Burnett. En 1959 Larsen trabajó como artista invitado en el show de la CBS Men Into Space, en el episodio "Christmas on the Moon".

A lo largo de 1960-1961 Larsen fue el miembro de la Armada Drake Andrews en la serie de aventuras de la CBS The Aquanauts, una producción de Ivan Tors también conocida como Malibu Run. Su co-protagonista era Jeremy Slate. Una operación de senos nasales le obligó a retirase del programa, y fue reemplazado por Ron Ely.

Tras The Aquanauts Larsen fue Jack Bennett en el capítulo de 1961 "Blondes Prefer Gentlemen", perteneciente a la serie de la ABC The Roaring Twenties, con Donald May, Rex Reason, y Dorothy Provine. Otros papeles televisivos, todos en 1960, fueron los de John Edwards en la entrega "The Hostage" de la serie western de la ABC Tombstone Territory, John Napier en "Nightmare Crossing", episodio del programa de la NBC The Man and the Challenge, y el del indio Blue Raven en "Seed of Hate", dentro de la serie de la NBC Wichita Town.

Los trabajos posteriores de Larsen se centraron más en el cine. Entre ellos figuran los filmes Women of the Prehistoric Planet (1966), Mission Batanagas (1968), Night of the Witches (1970),  The Trap on Cougar Mountain (1972), Whitewater Sam (1977), y su última actuación, Young and Free (1979). Algunos de estos títulos fueron dirigidos y producidos por él mismo.

Vida personal
Larsen se casó en tres ocasiones. El 28 de diciembre de 1953 lo hizo con la actriz Susan Cummings. Tras divorciarse se casó con otra actriz, Vera Miles, el 16 de julio de 1960; tuvieron un hijo, Erik Larsen, nacido en abril de 1961. Larsen y Miles se divorciaron en 1971. El último matrimonio del actor fue en 1983 con Trang Thu Nguyen, con la que tuvo un hijo. Permanecieron unidos hasta el fallecimiento de Larsen, ocurrido en 2006 en Santa Bárbara (California).

McLaren F1 has Put Strict Restrictions to Protect Staff from the Coronavirus Threat
Published by Charlene February 21, 2020 Categorie(s): F1
McLaren F1 takes the coronavirus threat very seriously. They are not taking any chances about it. The team issued guidelines that prohibit anyone who had visited China in the last 14 days from entering their premises. Team motorhome and factory also have implemented the above-stated constraint. The statement entails that the team will apply strict measures to protect the health and wellbeing of the team. These actions came after the WHO and the British government placed defensive warnings against visits to China. The Risk of Coronavirus outbreak rose to a severe level and the FIA and F1 teams take every possible measure to control the risk. As a result, the Chinese GP that is scheduled for the 19th of April stands canceled.
McLaren F1 Takes Corona Virus into Consideration
With coronavirus spreading its wings outside mainland China into nearby Asian countries, the maiden Vietnam Grand Prix that is scheduled for April 4 is also under threat of being cancelled. Everything is being closely watched by F1 and the FIA. Zak Brown, McLaren F1 boss, spoke about the possible threat to the Vietnam GP. He also said that his team will be evaluating the situation before they decide to send people to Hanoi.
"It is too close (to China) so we are monitoring the situation," said Brown. "We will never do anything that will put our people at risk, and I also don't believe Formula 1 would do so as well."
Teams still have concerns with regards to a new slot for the Chinese Grand Prix later in the year. They will need solid safety pledges before they head to China. Guenther Steiner, Haas F1 team boss said on the issue that they need reassurances before they can head back to China. As the sport cannot afford to take any risks. He also said on a possible postponement of the Chinese GP, "We can place a triple-header on; however, I don't know when this bug is over."
