It Takes Two to Tango: Public Attitudes Toward Prevention of Workplace Violence Against Health Care Staff: A Mixed-Methods Study.
Workplace violence (WPV) directed toward health care staff by patients and their relatives has become one of the major problems faced by health care systems around the world. Incidences of WPV have increased over the past decade, crossing borders and cultures and creating a worrisome global phenomenon. To date, most of the research has examined health care workers' perceptions of strategies that might prevent violence. Although the public, as prospective patients, has a central role in this state of affairs, little is known about public attitudes to prevention of violence in health care settings. In light of this, the current mixed-methods study aimed to explore public attitudes toward appropriate preventive and punitive measures that should be employed to diminish the occurrence of WPV incidents in health care settings. Five hundred sixty Jewish Israeli individuals participated in the study. Quantitative findings indicate the public's overall agreement and positive attitudes toward preventive and punitive measures aimed at reducing WPV against health care staff. Qualitative findings revealed two main themes: "focusing on the staff" by improving their work conditions, training them to deal with violence, and providing a sense of security, as well as "focusing on the public" by teaching tolerance, raising awareness of zero tolerance to violence, and punitive measures. The Israeli public believes that to deal with the problem of violence in the health care system, it is necessary to act simultaneously on two levels: health staff and the health care system, and the general public. In view of these findings, we recommend that policy makers address this issue by adopting preventive measures, such as increasing the number of health care personnel, workshops for the staff on dealing with violence, campaigns against violence in health care settings, and enforcing appropriate punitive measures against attackers.

10. Taste the sweet potato mash and adjust the seasoning as needed with salt, pepper, cinnamon, and nutmeg.

Section 2: Cooking Techniques and Tips

Cooking Techniques:

- Roasting: Roasting is a cooking technique that involves cooking food in an oven at a relatively low temperature for a longer period of time. This allows the flavors to develop slowly and evenly, resulting in a tender and flavorful dish.
- Mashing: Mashing is the process of using a fork or potato masher to break up the texture of the sweet potatoes until they are smooth. This creates a creamy and velvety texture that is perfect for a mash.
- Stirring: Stirring is the process of mixing the ingredients together until they are well combined. This helps to distribute the flavors and ingredients evenly throughout the dish.

Tips:

- Use a baking sheet to roast the sweet potatoes. This allows the sweet potatoes to brown evenly and develop a nice crust.
- Be careful not to overcook the sweet potatoes. They should be tender, but still have some bite when you bite into them.
- Use a fork or potato masher to mash the sweet potatoes. Avoid using a blender or food processor, as this can create a gluey texture.
- Taste the sweet potato mash as you go along and adjust the seasoning as needed. This will help you achieve the perfect balance of flavors.

T-bet is a STAT1-induced regulator of IL-12R expression in naïve CD4+ T cells.
T helper type 1 (T(H)1) cell development involves interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma) signaling through signal transducer and activator of transcription 1 (STAT1) and interleukin-12 (IL-12) signaling through STAT4 activation. We examined here T-bet regulation and evaluated the actions of T-bet in STAT1- and STAT4-dependent T(H)1 development processes. We found that T-bet expression during T cell activation was strongly dependent on IFN-gamma signaling and STAT1 activation, but was independent of STAT4. Ectopic T-bet expression strongly increased IFN-gamma production in T(H)2 cells activated by PMA-ionomycin, but weakly increased IFN-gamma production in T(H)2 cells stimulated by IL-12 IL-18 or OVA peptide antigen-presenting cell stimulation. In contrast, IL-12 IL-18 induced IFN-gamma production remained STAT4-dependent despite ectopic T-bet expression. Ectopic T-bet expression selectively induced expression of IL-12Rbeta2, but not IL-18Ralpha, in wild-type and STAT1(-/-) T(H)2 cells, but did not extinguish expression of GATA-3 and T(H)2 cytokines. Finally, ectopic T-bet did not directly induce expression of endogenous T- bet independently of IFN-gamma or STAT1. Thus, T-bet is induced by IFN-gamma and STAT1 signaling during T cell activation. In addition, T-bet mediates STAT1-dependent processes of T(H)1 development, including the induction of IL-12Rbeta2.

textbook:
Lesson: Understanding the Regulation of T-bet in T-helper Cell Development

Introduction:
T-bet is a transcription factor that plays an important role in the development of T-helper type 1 (Th1) cells. Th1 cells are essential for a robust immune response against intracellular pathogens such as viruses and some bacteria. In this lesson, we will explore the regulation of T-bet in Th1 cell development and its impact on the immune system.

Section 1: T-bet Regulation in Th1 Cell Development

T-bet is a STAT1-induced regulator of IL-12R expression in naïve CD4+ T cells. This means that T-bet is activated when STAT1 is activated, and it helps to control the expression of IL-12R in naïve CD4+ T cells. This is important because IL-12R is a receptor that is involved in the activation of Th1 cells.

Section 2: T-bet and IFN-γ Signaling

T helper type 1 (Th1) cell development involves IFN-γ signaling through STAT1 and STAT4 activation. We examined here T-bet regulation and evaluated the actions of T-bet in STAT1- and STAT4-dependent Th1 development processes. We found that T-bet expression during T cell activation was strongly dependent on IFN-γ signaling and STAT1 activation, but was independent of STAT4.

Section 3: Ectopic T-bet Expression

Ectopic T-bet expression selectively induced expression of IL-12Rβ2, but not IL-18Rα, in wild-type and STAT1(-/-) T(H)2 cells, but did not extinguish expression of GATA-3 and T(H)2 cytokines. This means that when T-bet is expressed in T(H)2 cells, it can increase the expression of IL-12Rβ2, which is important for Th1 cell development. However, it does not affect the expression of GATA-3 and T(H)2 cytokines, which are important for Th2 cell development.

Section 4: The Impact of T-bet Regulation on the Immune System

The regulation of T-bet in Th1 cell development is important for a robust immune response against intracellular pathogens such as viruses and some bacteria. When T-bet is expressed in T(H)2 cells, it can increase the expression of IL-12Rβ2, which is important for the activation of Th1 cells. This helps to promote a strong immune response against these pathogens.

Conclusion:
In summary, T-bet is a STAT1-induced regulator of IL-12R expression in naïve CD4+ T cells. It is involved in Th1 cell development and is important for a robust immune response against intracellular pathogens. Understanding the regulation of T-bet in Th1 cell development can help us to better understand the immune system and develop strategies to improve immune responses against pathogens.

Lesson: Introduction to Medieval Castles

## Section 1: What is a Medieval Castle?
A medieval castle was a fortress built during the Middle Ages for defensive purposes. They were usually built on a hilltop or near a river to provide protection and control over the surrounding area. Castles were also used as a residence for nobles and kings.

## Section 2: What are the different parts of a Medieval Castle?
A medieval castle typically had four main parts: the bawn (the outer courtyard), the barbican (a fortified gatehouse), the curtain wall (the outer wall), and the keep (the main tower). Inside the keep, there was usually a great hall, chambers, and storerooms.

## Section 3: What was life like in a Medieval Castle?
Life in a medieval castle was very different from life today. Nobles and knights lived in the castle, along with their servants and soldiers. The great hall was the main living area, where meals were eaten and important decisions were made. Chambers were used for sleeping and private activities. Storerooms were used to store food, weapons, and other supplies.

## Section 4: Why were Medieval Castles important?
Medieval castles were important because they provided protection and control over the surrounding area. They were also symbols of power and wealth for nobles and kings. Castles were often the site of battles and sieges during times of war.

## Section 5: How can I learn more about Medieval Castles?
If you want to learn more about medieval castles, you can visit a castle museum or read books about castles. You can also watch movies and TV shows set in medieval times to see what castles looked like and how people lived in them.

## Glossary:
- Bawn: The outer courtyard of a medieval castle.
- Barbican: A fortified gatehouse.
- Curtain wall: The outer wall of a medieval castle.
- Keep: The main tower of a medieval castle.
- Great hall: The main living area of a medieval castle.
- Chambers: Private rooms in a medieval castle.
- Storerooms: Places to store food, weapons, and other supplies in a medieval castle.

It's on a 3rd quilt right now. I really want to start making at least one of them. I think that I will have the calendar spiral bound (it's all loose pages). I got a few crafting books and magazine subscriptions as well. My husband even bought me some Lion's Brand Homespun yarn. He had no clue that that was one of my favorite yarns, and that I got a book on different things to make out of that particular brand of yarn.. My to do list: sew the quilt square for the mystery box quilt (quilt guild), start knitting a scarf, make a lap quilt for my grandma, make juice pouch notebooks as thank yous to the kids who recycle for me, clean my craft room, and I am sure there is a lot more on my list.

Lesson: Introduction to Quilting

## Section 1: Theoretical Concepts
Quilting is an art form that involves sewing together layers of fabric to create a warm and decorative cover, typically for a bed. It has been practiced for centuries and has evolved into a popular hobby and craft.

## Section 2: Practical Examples
To begin quilting, you will need several pieces of equipment and materials. These include a sewing machine or quilting frame, fabric, thread, batting, and a pattern or design. You can choose to follow a pre-existing pattern or design your own. Once you have gathered all of your materials, you can begin piecing together the layers of your quilt.

## Section 3: Real-World Scenarios
One popular type of quilt is the log cabin quilt. To make a log cabin quilt, you will first need to create strips of fabric that are sewn together to form a block. You can then repeat this process to create multiple blocks, which you will sew together to form the quilt top. Once you have completed the top, you can add batting and backing fabric to complete the quilt.

## Glossary
- Fabric: A material used to make quilts, typically consisting of woven fibers such as cotton, silk, or polyester.
- Thread: A cord or strand of yarn used to sew fabric together.
- Batting: A layer of insulation, usually made from cotton or polyester, that is sandwiched between the top and bottom layers of a quilt.
- Pattern: A design or template that guides the placement of fabric pieces in a quilt.
- Quilting frame: A device used to hold the quilt in place while sewing, typically consisting of a hoop or frame.

## Conclusion
Quilting is a fun and rewarding hobby that allows you to express your creativity while creating something practical and beautiful. By following the steps outlined above and practicing your skills, you can create your own unique quilts that will bring joy to you and others.

The present invention is directed to an optical device which may be used as an optical waveguide demultiplexer according to the diffraction grating principle or as an optical waveguide multiplexer. The optical device has a diffraction grating, optical means such as a reflecting mirror and first and second coupling surfaces which are provided in spatially separated image spaces of the mirror.
In optical wave demultiplexers having diffraction grating, an optical means for forming imaging optics and first and second coupling surfaces is disclosed, for example, in an article in Electron. Lett., Vol. 16, 1980, page 108.
From the literature, a series of waveguide demultiplexer components are already known which employ plane diffraction gratings in conjunction with a concave mirror or a lens or which use a concave diffraction grating. In contrast to plane gratings, concave gratings are complicated to manufacture.
Compact structures with concave mirrors are known for example, from an article by Belovolov et al, Third Intern. Conf. Integr. Opt. and Opt. Fiber Commun., San Francisco, 1981, Paper TUH2 and from an article by Laude et al, Opto, No. 3, 1981, p. 33. In these devices, the one or more incoming optical waveguides and the outgoing optical waveguides which waveguides may be optical glass fibers are closely spaced together and thus mutual adjustment is rendered more difficult. The same applies to gradient lens arrangements such as disclosed in an article by Kobayashi et al, Quant. Electr. QE-16, 1980, p. 11. Picture or illustration 6 of this article by Kobayashi clearly shows that the minimum spacing between an incoming fiber and an outgoing fiber will amount to approximately 50.mu.. In the case of translation or movement of the outgoing fibers, for example, which movement is necessary for an adjustment purpose, it is expected that the incoming fiber will also be inadvertently displaced.
In the construction according to the article by Laude et al in Opto, a bipartite grating or grating with an opening in the center was utilized. Such a construction is not desirable.
In an article by Watanabe et al, Electron. Lett., Vol. 16, 1980, p. 108, an arrangement which has the incoming fiber and the outgoing fibers being spatially separated is disclosed. However, the construction of this device is not very compact.

In case you haven’t noticed, the Bullard and West Me-N-Ed’s Pizza has been remodeled and added something Fresno has never seen: Self Service Beer Taps.

Run for the bluffs, post T-Ball pizza meetup, this may be too crazy for the kids!

SELF SERVING BREAKDOWN

Here is how it works. You order your food like always, but you tell them you are drinking like an adult. They ID you and start a tab. Then give you a magic wristband to wear.

You pick out a glass, search for the right beer (with pizza, I recommend an IPA, pale or Tioga’s Ed’s Red, but that’s just me), place your wristband against a certain spot on the tap, the tap gets ‘green lit’ and you can start pouring.

Wow. “Exciting” footage [sarc].

In addition to the beer taps, the place got cleaned up and is sporting a lot of wood.

Gone are the video games that the location had. So you might encounter a pissed off child at first. But give them a taste of your beer and it might shut them up.

(Disclaimer: thefresnan.com does not endorse childhood drinking in any way but just needed a mildly humorous line to place in the blog post).

HOW DRUNK CAN I GET?

You can get up to 32 ounces (two pints) but you can ask for more if they can see that you can take on additional juice. It electroniclly tracks how many ounces you’ve poured yourself – Big Brother is monitoring how much you drink, man!

There are 29 taps plus a cider or two and a couple of handles with something called “wine”. I don’t know what that is but I hear it contains alcohol so I guess it’s cool.

A REVIEW

This kind of system feels like a trendy thing, but I’m sure more will be popping up. And this one isn’t going away anytime soon.

It’s still pretty busy, as all new Fresno things are at first. But it’s managable. And if you don’t feel like pizza, you can just show up for the beer. They even have a seperate counter now to handle just the beer.

Not having to wait to get a bartender’s attention is a nice change. Although I can see it getting annoying having to get up everytime you want more beer.

I wouldn’t want every bar having this system. But it’s fun, glad it is in Fresno, I’ll be back – even if Big Brother is watching how many Luponic Distortions I can put down.

Lesson: Introduction to Self-Service Beer Taps

## Section 1: Theoretical Concepts

Self-service beer taps are a relatively new concept in the United States. They allow customers to pour their own beer directly from the tap, without the need for a bartender or server. This system is designed to provide a more convenient and personalized experience for customers who want to enjoy a drink while they dine.

## Section 2: Practical Examples

Let's consider a scenario where a group of friends decide to go out for dinner at a restaurant that offers self-service beer taps. When they arrive, they order their food and indicate that they would like to try the self-service beer taps. The waitstaff provides them with a wristband that allows them to access the taps and pour their own beer.

As they enjoy their meal, one of the friends notices that the beer tap selection has changed since their last visit. They decide to try a new IPA that they haven't had before. Using the self-service tap, they are able to pour a sample of the beer to try before committing to a full glass. Once they have decided that they like the beer, they pour themselves a full glass and continue enjoying their meal.

## Section 3: Real-World Scenarios

Self-service beer taps are becoming more popular in the United States, particularly in states like California where there is a strong craft beer culture. Many restaurants and bars are installing these taps as a way to offer a unique experience to their customers.

One example of a restaurant that has successfully implemented self-service beer taps is Me-N-Ed's Pizza in Fresno, California. The restaurant has seen a significant increase in business since installing the taps, as customers are drawn to the novelty and convenience of pouring their own beer.

Another example is the Tioga Ed's Red beer, which is a popular choice among customers using the self-service taps. This beer is brewed by Tioga Sequoia Brewing Company, a local craft brewery in Fresno. The beer has a distinct flavor profile that pairs well with the menu items at Me-N-Ed's Pizza, making it a popular choice for customers who want to enhance their dining experience with a unique craft beer.

## Glossary

- Self-service beer taps: A system that allows customers to pour their own beer directly from the tap without the need for a bartender or server.
- Craft beer: Beer that is produced in small batches by independent brewers, typically using traditional methods and high-quality ingredients.
- Wristband: A device worn on the wrist that is used to identify customers and grant them access to the self-service beer taps.
- Tap: A valve that controls the flow of a liquid, such as beer, from a keg or cask.

## Conclusion

Self-service beer taps are a unique and exciting development in the world of food and drink. By providing customers with the ability to pour their own beer, restaurants and bars can offer a more personalized and convenient experience. As more establishments begin to install these taps, we can expect to see a continued growth in the popularity of craft beer and the unique experiences that come with it.

Good internal pr for employees and charitable opportunities to give back.. Too much time wasted on politics and covering people off internally as opposed to working with clients on solutions. i think the company needs to evaluate the happiness factor. Some days its like a library there with no energy.. Stop hiding and filling out forms. Start engaging and having real conversations. Email is not a substitute for a conversation. People still like to engage with each other. Try it, its good.

Soy hulls and distillers grain for sheep

March 28, 2008

BROOKINGS Ð Soy hulls and dried distillers grain can be part of a cost-effective ration for sheep, a South Dakota State University specialist said. SDSU Extension Sheep Specialist Jeff Held said SDSU research in past years has compared soy hulls and dried distillers grain against a ration of corn and dried distillers grain. “We fed lambs for 60 days and finished those lambs post-weaning to a weight of approximately 130 pounds,” Held said. “The soy hulls and dried distillers grain, which was in a mix by form, brought together a ration that supported growth at eight-tenths of a pound a day, which is very much target for what we expected for the genotype. It was similar growth performance to what we found with cracked corn and dried distiller grain in a mixed format as well.” Held noted that dried distillers grain and soy hulls both are high-fiber feedstuffs that are very low in starch. That means there is less potential for acidosis, which can be a problem for sheep under some conditions. There's clearly less waste with the soy hull/distillers grains diet. “With the soy hulls-based ration, we noticed that there was considerable less residual or waste that we needed to remove from the self-feeding delivery that we had on these finishing lambs. In fact compared to the cracked corn-based ration, there was 40 percent less waste.” It's also evident that sheep like the feed. “The intake of the soy hull-based ration was about a percent of body weight higher. That would be comparable to what is noticed in other feeding trials with lambs as well as cattle. It's certainly an indication of high palatability,” Held said. The SDSU experiment used soybean hulls and dried distillers grains as the sole energy, protein, and fiber sources. “We look forward to the time when we can take soy hulls and dried distillers grain and bring those together in a complete pellet, a complete feedstuff. We think that the combination of soy hulls and dried distillers grains offers us a very nice package of nutrients.” For more details, consult SDSU Extension Extra 2052, “Feeding Soy Hulls and Dried Distillers Grain with Solubles to Sheep.” It's available online at this link: http://agbiopubs. sdstate.edu/articles/ ExEx2052.pdf.
