School Violence Is Not Going Away So Proactive Steps Are Needed

Is lateral violence training needed in nursing school?

Nursing literature consistently identifies novice nurses as the most likely to experience lateral violence in the healthcare workforce. With that statistic in mind, faculty at USC decided to offer lateral violence workshops to senior students. Several faculty members attended the train-thetrainer program sponsored by the Upstate AHEC and training sessions with senior nursing students began in f...

Virtual museums – not so far away

As more science and natural history museums move away from the tired ‘stuffed animals and fossils’ format towards interactive exhibits, some are also offering dynamic cyber visits. Now, there’s no need to leave your desk to examine fossils in three dimensions or check out Galileo’s body parts. The first stop on an online museum tour should be the San Francisco Exploratorium, where there’s an ex...

Going Solar is Good but Caution Needed!

Why not treat the mother-infant dyad, rather than infant alone, as achieving vitamin D sufficiency is equally important for the mothers. Compliance with daily oral vitamin D supplementation of infants is documented to be very poor even in the West [4,5]. Exposing infants to sunlight may be a more difficult proposition than medicinal supplements. While the natural way of augmenting the vitamin D...

Needed Computations Shortcutting Needed Steps

We define a compilation scheme for a constructor-based strongly-sequential graph rewriting system which shortcuts some needed steps. The object code, what the compiler produces on input the rewriting system, is another constructor-based graph rewriting system that is normalizing for the original system when using an innermost strategy. Hence, the object code can be easily implemented by eager f...
