Posted by Admin , No Comments

Submitted by: Amanda Berry

A home health care is the answer to your long-time agony of restoring your most treasured health without living in a hospital. During this age and time, the number of people with chronic diseases, mentally challenged and physically incapacitated is growing. Thats why health care services that are delivered at home are of great significance to their lives. It includes the finest package to restore your health and eventually be in good physical shape.

The idea of living in the hospital to meet your medical challenges is really dreadful. Aside from the costly medical procedures in a health care institution, you also find it uncomfortable to live each day of your life in the hospital. The development of health home care deletes this inconvenience. These services help you regain your optimal health. But this doesnt sacrifice the idea of quality services when you are in an excellent medical institution undergoing sophisticated treatments. These home care services use state of the art facilities and are delivered by experienced and competent medical staff. Through that you will never have to put your own health at stake.

But, what are really the services offered by this health home care providers? First, we have the language and speech therapy. Victims of a physically debilitating stroke can still recover their communication skills with the help of a competent speech therapist. Yes, it is a long process. But at the end, youll surely reap the fruits of your sacrifices. These services can also focus on educating the family. As we all know, prevention is always the best cure. These services also teach the significant knowledge needed by these individuals as they struggle in maintaining good health. They can also educate the family members of individuals who have chronic diseases of thing they should and shouldnt do if emergency occurs. They can further educate the youth against the evil and danger brought about by sexually-transmitted diseases. With this, you just cant provide worthwhile knowledge but can straighten their paths as well. Lastly, these services also concentrate in feeding the emotional and spiritual well-being of dying patients or those who have chronic diseases. They could still assist these individuals to attain a dignified death when their time comes or could still let hope shine despite the overshadowing of darkness, as in the case of chronically-ill patients. Whatever the purpose of health home care may be, its ultimate goal is to be a part of a patients life. Truly, these medical staff members want nothing but the best and quality life for their patients.

Being a part of a health home care staff is really mentally-taxing and physically-demanding. But, do you know what makes this career path worth the sacrifices? It is the smile of the patients whenever you touch them with care and their satisfied hearts whenever you smile back at them. At the end of the day, you can truly say that these services dont only provide purely medical treatment and health knowledge, but this career also touch lives as they become part of a patients heart.

Edmund White on writing, incest, life and Larry Kramer

Edmund White on writing, incest, life and Larry Kramer
Posted by Admin , No Comments

Thursday, November 8, 2007

What you are about to read is an American life as lived by renowned author Edmund White. His life has been a crossroads, the fulcrum of high-brow Classicism and low-brow Brett Easton Ellisism. It is not for the faint. He has been the toast of the literary elite in New York, London and Paris, befriending artistic luminaries such as Salman Rushdie and Sir Ian McKellen while writing about a family where he was jealous his sister was having sex with his father as he fought off his mother’s amorous pursuit.

The fact is, Edmund White exists. His life exists. To the casual reader, they may find it disquieting that someone like his father existed in 1950’s America and that White’s work is the progeny of his intimate effort to understand his own experience.

Wikinews reporter David Shankbone understood that an interview with Edmund White, who is professor of creative writing at Princeton University, who wrote the seminal biography of Jean Genet, and who no longer can keep track of how many sex partners he has encountered, meant nothing would be off limits. Nothing was. Late in the interview they were joined by his partner Michael Caroll, who discussed White’s enduring feud with influential writer and activist Larry Kramer.

Gastric bypass surgery performed by remote control

Gastric bypass surgery performed by remote control
Posted by Admin , No Comments

Sunday, August 21, 2005

A robotic system at Stanford Medical Center was used to perform a laparoscopic gastric bypass surgery successfully with a theoretically similar rate of complications to that seen in standard operations. However, as there were only 10 people in the experimental group (and another 10 in the control group), this is not a statistically significant sample.

If this surgical procedure is as successful in large-scale studies, it may lead the way for the use of robotic surgery in even more delicate procedures, such as heart surgery. Note that this is not a fully automated system, as a human doctor controls the operation via remote control. Laparoscopic gastric bypass surgery is a treatment for obesity.

There were concerns that doctors, in the future, might only be trained in the remote control procedure. Ronald G. Latimer, M.D., of Santa Barbara, CA, warned “The fact that surgeons may have to open the patient or might actually need to revert to standard laparoscopic techniques demands that this basic training be a requirement before a robot is purchased. Robots do malfunction, so a backup system is imperative. We should not be seduced to buy this instrument to train surgeons if they are not able to do the primary operations themselves.”

There are precedents for just such a problem occurring. A previous “new technology”, the electrocardiogram (ECG), has lead to a lack of basic education on the older technology, the stethoscope. As a result, many heart conditions now go undiagnosed, especially in children and others who rarely undergo an ECG procedure.

Blow out sales prices likely on mattresses as new U.S. fire-resistant standards take effect

Blow out sales prices likely on mattresses as new U.S. fire-resistant standards take effect
Posted by Admin , No Comments

Wednesday, June 20, 2007

If you are in the market for new bedding, and not too concerned with the new United States guidelines for mattress fire resistance, now might be a good time to buy. Mattresses sold in the U.S. must meet new federal guidelines for flammability starting on July 1.

The peak heat release rate is limited to 200 kW during a 30 minute test. The total heat release is limited to 15 MJ within the first 10 minutes.”

The flammability of mattress sets sold in the U.S. is subject to a new mandatory federal regulation requirement passed by the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) on February 16 last year. The requirement, costing mattress manufacturers an estimated $100 million to meet, is scheduled to take effect on July 1. The commission anticipates that the new standards will save 270 lives and 1,330 injuries per year from mattress fires.

“We’ve passed a new open flame regulation and the whole idea behind the regulation is to make sure that if a mattress catches on fire that the fire burns slowly enough that people have enough time to get out of the house and get away,” said Hal Stratton, chairman of the CPSC

Radio and TV advertising spots are reacting to the new regulation by discounting prices on mattresses that fail to meet the new guidelines. Sales made in the mattress industry, like the automobile industry, are highly negotiable on price. The new regulation does not appear to have much “teeth” for mattresses already in the distribution pipeline, but it is a new law that is a bargaining position for potential buyers.

Hunting Land For Sale In Alabama What To Look For In Your Land

Posted by Admin , No Comments

By Chuck Magee

When you are looking to buy hunting land for sale in Alabama let me tell you a few things to look for in the land to have a successful hunting property. Not just any property will make a great hunting camp and we will discuss what helps and what hurts your hunt.

If this is your first time looking to purchase hunting land in Alabama and hunting land in general lets dive right in and talk about thing that you may over look but when it comes to hunting land are very important. I will get the obvious out of the way first, price is very important to everyone and you should be no different whether you have a large budget of a more modest one. What will affect your price; well some of our other key things to look out for will actually affect the price. If your hunting land is ready to hunt on now dont under value that, yes the land per acre will certainly be higher but keep in mind if you cant walk it or ride it with a four wheeler you also cant hunt it this means bull dozer work and that will cost you thousands of dollars. If you are looking at a forty acre hunting tract pretty much anywhere in Alabama your dozer will cost you on the low side $ 65.00 per hour and could run upwards of $ 125.00 per hour if you get a dozer lets say the size of a D-6 and it will take that to grub stumps of any real size.

Now lets go a little deeper than dozer work which we have established costs a ton of money depending on what shape the land is in. I would say a good rule of thumb on 40 acres with no stumps to grub would cost at least $ 4,000.00-$ 6,000.00 and this would only get you a good boundary line clearing and remember a true 40 acre land tract is a mile for each line that does take a little time to clear. OK now let look at a few more things like good boundary line fencing, well established deer and turkey plots, creek or river frontage, gates, deer stands, timber value in todays market and your potential 10 and 20 year growth, you would need a quality timber management company like Midsouth Forestry Services Inc. to have any idea on timber value, I have bought and sold timber land for almost twenty years and I still miss values all the time. I would put different values on these things in relation to what they mean to you, creek and river frontage on good hunting land for sale in Alabama is going to cost you and it could dramatically increase the value, water is a big deal to deer so if it makes the property much prettier and it usually does if cleared around and you have the extra money it sure does help.

When buying good well maintained hunting land for sale in Alabama keep these land plus items in mind, it will help you feel good about what you pay for the land and also help you negotiate a better price for you land closing.

On Friday, a group of hikers and 18 boy scouts were airlifted by helicopters away from a wildfire in Nephi Canyon, Utah. The hikers and scouts escaped into a rough rocky area to keep a safe distance from the dangerous wildfire after it advanced on their campground.

The wildfire started in a campground in Salt Creek Canyon, 85 miles from Salt Lake City, and has burned 13,000 acres across 20 square miles as of Friday. The fire has burned a campground and motel, and forced the evacuation of all campgrounds and cabins in its path.

Wikinews interviews 2020 Melbourne Lord Mayor Candidate Wayne Tseng

Thursday, October 22, 2020

2020 Melbourne Lord Mayor candidate Wayne Tseng answered some questions about his campaign for the upcoming election from Wikinews. The Lord Mayor election in the Australian city is scheduled to take place this week.

Tseng runs a firm called eTranslate, which helps software developers to make the software available to the users. In the candidate’s questionnaire, Tseng said eTranslate had led to him working with all three tiers of the government. He previously belonged to the Australian Liberal Party, but has left since then, to run for mayorship as an independent candidate.

Tseng is of Chinese descent, having moved to Australia with his parents from Vietnam. Graduated in Brisbane, Tseng received his PhD in Melbourne and has been living in the city, he told Wikinews. Tseng also formed Chinese Precinct Chamber of Commerce, an organisation responsible for many “community bond building initiatives”, the Lord Mayor candidate told Wikinews.

Tseng discussed his plans for leading Melbourne, recovering from COVID-19, and “Democracy 2.0” to ensure concerns of minorities in the city were also heard. Tseng also focused on the importance of the multi-culture aspect and talked about making Melbourne the capital of the aboriginals. Tseng also explained why he thinks Melbourne is poised to be a world city by 2030.

Tseng’s deputy Lord Mayor candidate Gricol Yang is a Commercial Banker and works for ANZ Banking Group.

Currently, Sally Capp is the Lord Mayor of Melbourne, the Victorian capital. Capp was elected as an interim Lord Mayor in mid-2018 after the former Lord Mayor Robert Doyle resigned from his position after sexual assault allegations. Doyle served as the Lord Mayor of Melbourne for almost a decade since 2008.
