NHS Values Summits bring together a diverse range of people and perspectives to foster greater understanding of how peoples' differences, social status and cultural expectations can affect their experiences of health and care.
Held on a quarterly basis across the country, each summit promotes values-based ways of working and explores a different theme relating to equality, health inequalities and human rights.
The theme of this NHS Values Summit, held on 18th September 2013, was entitled 'Making it happen in Greater Manchester: Integrated care across organisations'. Patient-centred care that is well co-ordinated across care settings and over time is better for all but can particularly benefit patients with long-term, chronic or complex conditions and those who may find it difficult to 'navigate' the health care system.
The Greater Manchester summit was held during National Recovery Month. This provided an opportunity for people to share their recovery stories with others and celebrate their successes, promoting the benefits of prevention, treatment and recovery for those experiencing mental health or substance misuse issues.
As a celebration of shared learning and partnership working, NHS England is pleased to welcome patients and the public, representatives from health and social care, and stakeholders from the private and voluntary/community sectors to these important events.
Understanding population dynamics is critical to avoiding static perceptions of human and environmental vulnerability. Changes that affect the size, distribution, and composition of human populations also affect both the nature of vulnerability and adjustments in natural or human systems in response to environmental change.
‘The Demography of Adaptation to Climate Change,’ a new edited volume from the United Nations Population Fund, International Institute for Environment and Development, and El Colegio de Mexico explores these themes. Three of the book’s contributors share perspectives on the importance of population dynamics for adaptation, ways to use available population and census data in assessing vulnerability and resilience, and the application of these approaches for urban vulnerability and adaptation in Malawi and Indonesia.

Chakwal, February 9, 2017 – USAID today signed a Memorandum of Understanding with the Barani Agriculture Research Institute (BARI) to establish an Olive Research Center (ORC) and a grant agreement with the Olive Foundation to conduct research to facilitate private sector investment. The signing took place at a meeting with the Olive Development Group and was held at BARI in Chakwal. Agriculture Department Secretary Capt. (Retired) Muhammad Mahmood, Provincial Director for USAID/Lahore Alyson McFarland, and sector stakeholders witnessed the signing.
“The Olive Development Group serves as a platform for the emerging olive sector in Punjab and represents an integrated approach to sector development based on quick decision-making, rapid advocacy for policy reforms, and investment mobilization and job creation avenues,” said Ms. Alyson McFarland. “USAID is pleased to support the development of the Potohar region as an olive valley.”
Secretary Mahmood said, “The Government of Punjab realizes the significance of the socio-economic opportunities offered by olive-producing regions in the Potohar Valley of Punjab. Today’s meeting of the Olive Development Group highlights the government’s commitment to facilitate private sector stakeholders in taking an active part in the olive sector development in Punjab.”
The Olive Development Group, created by the Government of Punjab with the support of USAID’s Punjab Enabling Environment Project, works with public and private sector entities to improve the business environment of the olive sector in Punjab. The ODG is chaired by Secretary Mahmood and is comprised of representatives from the olive value chain, academia, and industry associations. The Government of Punjab provides more than two million plants free of cost over five years to develop the Potohar Valley and catalyze 15,000 cultivated acres.
USAID’s Punjab Enabling Environment Project is a five-year, $15 million project to improve the business environment in the livestock, dairy and horticulture sectors of Punjab. BARI, Chakwal was established in 1979 to resolve the agricultural challenges of barani [rain-fed] areas. In addition to establishing the ORC, PEEP is introducing international olive oil standards, developing standard operating procedures for registration of olive nurseries, and supporting a feasibility study on olive farming.

Lahore, May 2, 2018: USAID-Punjab Youth Workforce Development (PYWD) project and the College of Tourism and Hotel Management (COTHM) signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) to support training and education in the hospitality sector for youth in southern Punjab. Present at the occasion were USAID/Pakistan Mission Director, Jerry Bisson and Provincial Director USAID Punjab, Lea Swanson.
The MOU was signed during a roundtable on business partnerships which served as a platform for professionals in the technical and vocational training sector, including representatives from Fatima Memorial Hospital (FMH), Punjab Vocational Training Council (PVTC), and Lahore Restaurants Association (LRA), to share their expertise and knowledge on youth skills development in market-driven trades. At the roundtable, a tripartite agreement was also signed between FMH, PVTC and PYWD project with the objectives of upgrading PVTC’s clinical assistant course and of engaging in youth skills development for the provision of quality healthcare services.
Speaking at the roundtable, USAID/Pakistan Mission Director, Jerry Bisson stated that, “Pakistan’s youth is the future of the country and I believe that investing in them will build their capacity to develop and grow as the leaders of tomorrow.”
In his remarks, the CEO of COTHM, Ahmad Shafiq said, “COTHM’s engagement with the PYWD project will lead to the provision of hospitality education along with job placement opportunities for the project’s selected youth.”
The PYWD project is investing in youth by providing technical and vocational education and employment opportunities to around 10,000 youth between the ages of 16 and 29 — 35 percent of whom are female in the southern Punjab districts of Multan, Lodhran, Bahawalpur, and Muzaffargarh. The three-year program complements the Government of Punjab’s policy to provide skill development opportunities for youth. ###
A Deeper Understanding
The book was
Always with
Her
She brought it
From her country
Whenever I asked
About it
She quickly changed
The subject
One day she told me
About a man
Who had waited
Ten years
For her to return
With tears in her eyes
She said "Mica, I think
That is true love"
I shall always remember
Keyong
And wonder
About the book

You never really get a good understanding of poverty until you've passed through a place called Floodway....
There, you'll see all sorts of different people with different pursuits, different attitudes, different likes and dislikes... They have one thing in common, though-----POVERTY...
For ordinary people with ordinary jobs who are not the least bit contented with what they have, you have to wonder----- why? Why can't one be content with eating 3 square meals a day when other people out there, near us, practically our neighbors, can't even scrounge up enough money to provide one decent meal for their families??
Why, with what we have, do we still complain on how traffic it is when we should be thankful we have a car..? Why complain about washing the dirty dishes when we've just enjoyed a full course meal? Why complain of sweeping the floor and wiping down dirt when we should be feeling lucky that we have a roof over our heads??
The people in floodway have the sewers for their water, the construction sites for their playground and the road, with its numerous vehicles passing them by, as their form of amusement.. When you really think about it, THEY are the lucky ones... They do not want and want and when they get, they don't complain... THEY are happy with what they have, whatever that may be and however small the quantity is... It is US who should be envious of them and not the other way around.. If only people, myself included, can see life from Floodway's point of view and perspective, the world would be a much happier place...
Clearing out the loft today. Came across a binder full of these:
I had them at school, probably in my second year, which would be late 1967 or early 1968.

LS cylinder heads were the most powerful and advanced cylinder heads introduced by General Motors. They were lightweight, made from aluminium, and designed to bolt up to LS engines. The power of these LS cylinder heads can be determined by the fact that they feature 259 CC intake and 102 CC exhaust runners. There were also 72 CC combustion chambers and 2.1 65" intake, and a 1.600" exhaust valve. The design is created in such a way that LS heads can assemble easily with valve springs, retainers, locks, guide plates, studs, and even seals. The outcome of this design was the benefits like economic availability yet maximum output. There were ported heads also mainly designed and produced in the form of fully assembled and heavy-duty components.
These LS cylinder heads are compatible with most of the LS series engines manufactured by General Motors, and one of them is the LS7 engine. This engine comes with some high-end engine specifications like –
Unique High-Flow
CNC-Ported
Square Port
Cylinder heads and intake are manifold in this series
Intake valves are made up of titanium
1.8 ratio rockers are present
The camshaft has a really long-duration high lift
Deck plates are used for block machining performing to increase accuracy
The oiling system is of a really high capacity and dry sump
When all these features combine with the power of versatile LS heads, they can make an LS engine generate a whopping capacity of 7100 RPM.
How to Install LS Cylinder Heads?
The first recommendation here is to rely upon highly established car mechanics for the same. They will follow a step-by-step approach for the installation procedure and ensure that an oil and coolant leak situation does not occur. Here is the detail of the installation process followed for installing LS cylinder heads.
Step – 1
The first step is to press new dowel pins into the engine blocks. There are two dowel pins per side in holes 7 and 8. They have to align the head to the block and this has to be done without fail before installing cylinder heads. To align the dowel pins perfectly, the team might have to tap them gently with a hammer.
Step – 2
Step 2 will involve cleaning the deck surface and placing the head gasket on the block while making sure that the appropriate direction is chosen.
Step - 3
Again the deck surface of the LS head will have to be cleaned using a clean cloth and acetone, and then, the cylinder head is carefully placed on the head gasket.
Step - 4
Now it's time to install the bolt fingers really tight and when done, the task of LS 3 heads and LS1 heads installation is over.

My personal understanding is we are not alone. We are in a world with external forces at work. Check this out Book of Ezekiel, starting in chapter 1 verse 4: The Wheels?
God is described as having spoke from inside a whirlwind in Job 38:1. Elijah to heaven in a whirlwind in 2 Kings 2:1, 2:11
Wheel is translated from the Hebrew apw (Transliterated 'owphan). It comes from an unused root meaning to revolve .
Hebrews 13:2 (KJV) “Be not forgetful to entertain strangers: for thereby some have entertained angels unawares.”
Revelation 4:8 (KJV) “And the four beasts had each of them six wings about him; Ezekiel 10:5 (KJV) speaks of cherubims that appeared in the sky. It says that “…the sound of the cherubims' wings was heard even to the outer court, This is just a taste of SPACE wars that is going on with Messengers carring out Gods commands and the (fallen Angels) Messengers who are against his will. ................................ Which side are you on? Our human nature we draw our swords when we do not understand something.
On the 1st November 2018, we signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with Plan International Rwanda. The MOU aims to advance children's rights and equality for girls.
Through this partnership, we will jointly implement activities related to promoting, safeguarding and protecting of young people, access to Early Childhood development (ECD) services, as well as quality education.

King knows their is something different going on in the pasture but he is not sure what it is. His mother is in season and a stallion has been placed in the pasture with him and his mother. Suzy was quite alarmed when she seen the stallion coming up behind me, I didn't realize that they can be quite dangerous when they are in this mood.
BILL MOYERS: You say, "…the way the human mind is built, antipathy can impede comprehension." Rationality. "Hating protestors, flag burners and even terrorists makes it harder to understand them well enough to keep others from joining their ranks."
ROBERT WRIGHT: It's a tricky balance to strike because on the one hand, understanding terrorists and how they became terrorists, which is in our interests if we want to discourage the creation of more terrorists, tends to involve a kind of sympathy that in turn can lead you to say they are not to blame for what they did.
And you don't want to say that because as a practical matter you have to punish people when you can when they do bad things. So you don't want to let go of the idea of moral culpability but you do need to kind of put yourself in their heads. And that is really a great challenge in the modern world.
One of the great scientific challenges of our time is understanding how the human mind works, and where intelligence comes from. Recently, we've made progress building systems that help advance our understanding -- through the field of artificial intelligence. With artificial intelligence, we have a chance to build a new generation of apps and services that are more natural, intuitive, and valuable. Today we launched a new app called Moments that helps you sync photos with your friends. Moments recognizes which of your friends are in the photos you take, and lets you share those photos with those people in one tap. If you use it, your friends will sync to you a lot of the photos of you they have hidden in their camera rolls. This is a simple example of AI at work. By building a system that learned to recognize people and objects in images, we could enable this new service. Now imagine a system that can identify words on a screen for a blind person and read them aloud, help an autistic child to decipher facial expressions, or identify street signs in one language and instantly translate them to another. Those are just a few more of the applications that image recognition technology driven by AI can already help us achieve. In the years ahead, artificial intelligence and image recognition have the chance to make the internet far more useful for everyone. You can learn more about how we're working to help build them in the video below. twitter.com/markzuckvideos ift.tt/2i2KiTx ift.tt/2hTFQIO ift.tt/2i2SOBT

Dermal fillers and Botox are both popular ways of regaining a youthful appearance. However, these two forms of non-surgical facelift are very different procedures. It is important to understand the difference before approaching a provider offering Botox or dermal fillers Essex and beyond.
Dermal fillers, such as eye, chin, and lip fillers Essex wide, are substances that are injected into the skin to add volume to the soft tissues and to fill out wrinkles. Hyaluronic acid, which occurs naturally in the skin, is the most common dermal filler, however, others can be used, and you should check exactly what the filler contains when you go for your initial consultation. Botox reduces wrinkles by paralysing or reducing muscle movements in the face. The results of Botox last between four to six months, whereas the results of dermal fillers can last up to eighteen months.
While dermal fillers Essex wide and Botox differ in many aspects, one thing that they share is that they should only be undertaken by a qualified expert. Undertaken properly, both are safe and non-invasive aesthetic procedures that can improve the look of the skin and increase an individual’s confidence.
