The NHS Values Summit brings together a diverse range of people and perspectives to create a greater understanding of how people’s differences, social status and cultural expectations can affect their experiences of health and care.
It challenges and inspires people to think about the role of ethical leadership in improving the health and wellbeing of local communities, staff and patients and how the NHS can increase the social value of its activities.
Welcoming representatives from health and social care, alongside more than 20 partners from the voluntary and community sector, this event (in Leeds, Yorkshire) was a template for future NHS Values Summits, which will be held twice a year in different locations across the country. Each event will explore a different theme relating to equality, health inequalities and human rights. The next gathering will take place in May 2013.

Understanding my subject is important to my photography as my photographs aim to express who they are. Without an understanding of the person I cannot create an image that truly captures the person and their story. In this photograph I purposefully made my subject partially transparent, and off to the far side. I did not want her to be noticeable directly at first sight as it would defeat the purpose of the photograph. I want people to look at it and have curiosity and wonder, making them want to read the caption and look further into the photo.

I believe this is a Southeast Asian inspired stupa. It is my understanding that you can donate a certain amount of money in order to have a small figure enshrined here in your honor. I'm really not sure how it all works.

Seen from a Metra inbound paralleling the BNSF Cicero Yard, ex Santa Fe GP60 #334 is seen working Cicero in between two other BNSF geeps (the one to the left also has an H1 paint job lol). Well wait, where’s the cab on this fellow? Oh boy, this is gonna be another interesting story for me tell. But hey, I don’t mind at all!
You might be asking yourself, where is the cab of this GP60? Well this unit wasn’t built by EMD to have a cab. Built only for the Santa Fe in the early 90s to team with their safety cab GP60M units on the increasing intermodal train traffic, this new model known as the “GP60B” was basically a B unit that was just like the ones used on passenger trains that were once pulled by E and F units used to give a boost of extra horsepower when needed to get a train going. As for GP60B, they moved around the Santa Fe system with only the silver part of the warbonnrt paint scheme but still had the red Santa Fe lettering on the side. These units were still going strong during the BN-ATSF consolidation into BNSF in the mid 90s and a small bunch are still running around today. However, the number is small last I heard and all the ones in active service are repainted into the BNSF H1 scheme (I believe at least one is in H3) and I’m going to heavily assume a good chunk of the fleet is either stored or scrapped. This model stands out within the EMD 60 Series in my opinion and I made sure to take the time to preserve my catch of one of these in 2021 before they’re all gone. As for the normal GP60 units, they were the last 4 axle unit built by EMD and pretty much all railroads that have any left have been using them in local or switching service instead of the high speed TOFC/Intermodal trains they were built for originally.

Cullman’s Steve James has experienced the excruciatingly crushing, unthinkable loss of a child.
In return, he has given hope, understanding, and voice to so many. His impact on the world through acts of loving kindness are quite extraordinary. As Mother Teresa once said, “Prayer in Action is love, love in action is service.” Steve James and Kenya Relief truly embody this belief and way of being.
When Steve arrived in Kenya, he was completely shocked.
There were people living in dire circumstances without medical care that you and I take for granted. Imagine streets lined with coffins at the height of the HIV crisis, when life expectancy was only 36 years. Think of someone you know in their 30’s. Maybe it’s you. Can you imagine having no hope of living to be wrinkly and gray?
Forty percent of women child-bearing age had HIV, leaving behind many orphans to wander the streets scared, hungry and alone. With the lack of education, birth control methods, and access to medical treatment, the people in this impoverished environment suffered greatly. There were a lot of teachers and middle-aged income-generating people dying. The lack of clean water was also making people sick.
Today, Kenya Relief provides medical treatment and surgery to those in need for FREE, or at a very low cost. They house 175 orphans in Brittney’s Home of Grace (named after Steve and Greta’s daughter) 7 or 8 orphans in vocational training, and 10 orphans in the university. They have a safe, top-notch school that nurtures young minds (570 to be exact) and tests among the top in the area. Kenya Relief has brought clean water to the residents, mobility assistance to people who are so severely disabled that they have to crawl because that is their only means of getting around. They are giving hope to people and they are blessing others because it is who they are and it is the heart of their mission.
How Can You Help?
We’re glad that you asked. You can do a number of things to be helpful:
★ Pray for Kenya Relief
★ Volunteer (learn how at www.KenyaRelief.org)
★ Contribute financially (PayPal)
★ Sponsor a child (this includes food, housing, textbooks, school, clothing, and medical care) Any amount helps.
★ Spread the word – tell their story

IPSOS is using biometric belts that have been strapped onto consumers' chests in order to understand human reactions in their truest form. More simply, they are measuring the response to stimuli through the nervous system.
Biometrics is a branch of neuroscience that takes the measurement of emotions to a whole new level. It allows marketers to understand the additional dimensions of unconscious consumer responses in their day-to-day decision making, ultimately leading to stronger end results and a greater understanding of how brands and advertising are connecting with people in their everyday lives.
A clearer understanding of the origin recognition complex (ORC) – a protein complex that directs DNA replication – through its crystal structure offers new insight into fundamental mechanisms of DNA replication initiation. This will also provide insight into how ORC may be compromised in a subset of patients with Meier-Gorlin syndrome, a form of dwarfism in humans. Read more »
