How Your Company Can Avoid the Great Resignation
August 17, 2021 Employee Experience
By Scott Clark
The Microsoft Work Trend Index revealed that 40% of employees would like to change jobs in 2021. A survey of workers in the U.K. and Ireland indicated that 38% want to do so as well. A US survey showed that 26% of employees are planning on leaving their current employer within the next few months.
The statistics are startling. According to a report from the US Bureau of Labor Statistics, 3.6 million people left their current employer in May 2021, and four million quit in April 2021. This is the highest number of employees quitting jobs that has ever been recorded since the BLS started counting in 2000.
The Great Resignation, as some have called it, is upon us. Here are the ways companies can step up to retain their best workers while improving the employee experience.
Don't Give Employees a Reason to Quit
During the pandemic, many employees felt that they had to endure whatever hardship or negative feelings they were having about their current employer because of the uncertainty of the economy, business closings, lockdowns and health concerns.
The pandemic also took a toll on career advancement. A study by BambooHR released in June 2021 revealed that 78% of remote workers believe their career development has been negatively affected over the past year, 30% expected promotions that were delayed or denied, and the average American remote worker estimated they lost out on $9,823 in promotions during the last year. More than half (53%) reported feeling burned out on a weekly basis.
Jolene Cramer, senior director of marketing at Limeade, an employee experience technology company, said many employees are considering leaving their current employer because they don't want to go back to the way things were pre-pandemic. After 18 months of no commute, no office politics and no mandatory work attire, the idea of going back to the office is simply not appealing.
"Employees are not eager to go back to the old way of work, so much so that they are willing to walk away rather than put up with the standard 9-to-5, butts-in-seats kind of mentality," Cramer said.

Focus on Employee Values
Previously satisfied employees who would never have considered leaving before the pandemic are now considering leaving. Coonoor Behal, founder of Mindhatch, a creative consultancy, and author of "I Quit! The Life-Affirming Joy of Giving Up," said many people are re-evaluating their current job and determining if it's the best fit for them.
Businesses need to face the fact that it may be the employer who needs to take steps to stop pushing employees away, and start doing things that make employees glad to be a part of the business. Behal asked one of the "quitters" in her book what their quitting story said about them. Her response says a lot about the reasons that people are quitting their jobs.
"That it was not quitting," she said. "It was choosing me. It's not so much what you walk away from. It's what you decide you are for. What are you running toward? And that was a choice to choose me and what was possible."
Another quitter in Behal's book said the reason she quit her job was based on what was important in her life. Health, time with family and time away from work had become more valuable than the money, power and prestige that came along with a job. The move away from financial security to a search for values indicates that company culture needs to place more emphasis on organizational purpose to fulfill employee needs and desires. When asked why employees quit their jobs, Behal said there are many reasons, and that it most likely isn't just one thing.
"The 'I'm mad as hell and I'm not going to take any more!' or 'Jerry Maguire meltdown' is rare," she said. From the job quitters she interviewed, any and all of the following can be at play:
Realizing a job may have been right when they started, but they have since changed and the job no longer matches their understanding of themselves now.
The job no longer or never did match their core values, and they are no longer willing to accept the tradeoffs that come with staying in that job.
Quitting a job or even a relationship can often be an act of privilege. If you have savings in the bank, a supportive spouse or a background that makes you easily employable again, the risk of quitting may not seem so bad.

Create a Positive Company Culture
The Engagement and Retention Report from Achievers Workforce Institute from February 2021 revealed that two-thirds of employees planned to leave their jobs because of poor or negative company culture.
Culture plays a large role in employee experience, and companies must not just espouse a certain culture and values, but live and encourage those values. Allowing flexibility, empowering employees through continual learning, transparency among leaders and managers, and an atmosphere of open communication all contribute to a positive organizational culture.
A strong corporate social responsibility program in which the company works to achieve its stated goals, both for the company and the community at large, also encourages employees to feel they are a part of something valuable, and that they are making a worthwhile contribution.
Generally, a poor or toxic culture comes from the top down. During the pandemic, many leaders showed their true colors by not putting worker and customer safety first, laying off employees, and micromanaging those employees who began working remotely. The toxic atmosphere of such an arrangement can cause many employees to become depressed, decrease productivity, become less engaged, feel unimportant and unrecognized, become emotionally distant, and eventually, become so dispirited that they end up leaving the business to find a new employer.
A 2020 study by the National Bureau of Economic Research of 3.1 million employees in North America, Europe and the Middle East discovered a 5.2% increase in both the average number of internal emails, and a 2.9% increase in the number of recipients of those emails, as well as a 12.9% increase in the number of meetings per person. Researchers determined that, since the pandemic began, the average workday had been extended by 48.5 minutes. Compounded with the loss of differentiation between work and personal life, many employees began to feel overwhelmed.
A new job may seem like a quick fix when an employee is dealing with a toxic work culture, but often the same issues will be present at the new job.
"Many companies are experiencing the same trials and tribulations, including skyrocketing burnout, higher workloads and constant talent turnover," said Cramer. "While that new job may seem like an immediate fix, after the honeymoon phase an employee may find themselves disliking the same cultural aspects that weren't working for them at their last organization or encounter new challenges."
Behal said companies need to hire smarter. If they focus on finding employees that espouse the values of a company, they will be more likely to see increased loyalty and engagement.
"Make sure you are hiring people who already do value what your brand values, and who have the potential to evolve with you," she said. "Make your values clear and share them often so people can feel more connected to their purpose and the 'why' behind their work."

Identify the Real Drivers of Performance
Companies need to ensure that they don't make employees feel like their employer is watching them with a stopwatch in hand. Performance and productivity does not equate to time spent behind a monitor.
"Stop acting like you are running a factory and learn how to truly measure your employees' performance," said Behal. "Basing performance off of things like time in the office is just lazy. It's why a lot of people feel like they eventually just can't win at a company, the performance metrics are garbage to begin with and so the goal posts change any time a manager or leader feels like it."
Micromanagement is never the answer, and tends to make employees very uncomfortable. Companies should recognize what needs to be accomplished by employees and be confident in their employee's ability to accomplish the tasks.
"Determine competency models that actually measure the competencies that are necessary for your brand to succeed, and let employees take it from there," Behal said. "You control the 'what' but err on the side of letting them decide the 'how.'"
Other aspects of culture include making diversity a core value and living it every day. "Invest in diversity, equity, inclusion, justice, and belonging like it's your job because it is," she said.
Finally, companies need to keep in mind that work can be daunting and overly serious, because it largely is but that doesn't mean it always has to be.
"Embrace fun," said Behal. "Daniel Coyle, author of 'The Culture Code' and 'The Talent Code' rightly calls fun and laughter the 'most fundamental sign of safety and connection.'"
Employees Are Asking Questions About Workplace Conditions
From an employee perspective, they should ask themselves a series of questions. Did their employer prioritize the health and safety of customers and employees during the pandemic? Did business leaders work to ensure that employees had everything they needed to work remotely, if that was the case? Did the employer endeavor to help the community at large? Did they live up to their stated corporate social responsibilities?
If they did all these things and kept the needs of their employees in mind, resigning might not be a great idea. Sticking around might provide new opportunities during a time when many others may be leaving, and will show loyalty to a business that has demonstrated it cares about its employees.
If the answers came out differently, employees should ask themselves why they would want to stay with a business that put profit over safety during the pandemic. Did leaders and department managers micromanage remote workers? Were they working for one of those businesses who increased the amount of emails and text messages sent after work hours and over the weekend? Did they expect workers to come into an overcrowded office even during the peak of the pandemic? Or are they already forcing workers to come back to the office to work in spite of the trepidations and concerns of workers?
If that is the case, as it is for many employees, then it may be time to look for work elsewhere.
Offer Multiple Working Options
The remote workplace was sold to employees as a temporary solution that would allow businesses to remain operational while putting the health and safety of customers and employees first. Even as the pandemic outlasted predictions, employees got used to working remotely, appreciated the additional time they got to spend at home, and most were glad to be rid of the long commute.
Now, many employers are beginning to reintroduce employees to the office. The problem is that the work-from-home genie is out of the bottle, and employees are not so eager to return to the office. A recent Gallup report revealed that only 39% of employees prefer to return to the office. The Gallup report also indicated that 44% of remote workers would prefer to continue to work remotely if given the opportunity.
The typical incentives that many companies offer are not likely to win many employees over when it comes to this battle. Many companies are considering hybrid work arrangements in which employees work from home part of the time, and from the office the rest. While this is likely to appease some employees, others would prefer to stick to a remote workplace due to concerns about COVID, the desire to avoid going back to the long commute or having to deal with childcare arrangements. Or, perhaps they just feel more productive and satisfied working by themselves in their home office.
According to Business Insider, 39% of 1,000 US adults polled in May indicated that they'd consider quitting if their bosses weren't flexible about them working from home. This was especially the case among younger workers; 49% of those who said they'd consider quitting were millennials and Gen Z. A report from Flexjobs put the number even higher, and said that 58% of those currently working remotely would "absolutely" look for a new employer if their current employer tried to force them back into the office.
It's also not just getting back to the old routine that's troubling employees. Many are worried about contracting COVID, having to wear a mask, and other health concerns. In fact, in a poll Limeade conducted with nearly 4,500 employees in France, Germany, United Kingdom, Australia and the United States, not a single person said they didn't have anxiety about returning to the office.
There are many reasons employees consider leaving a job. Organizational culture plays a big role, as does whether an employee feels like they are contributing something positive to the community and the world.
But the bottom line is that companies need to strongly consider, or reconsider, forcing remote workers back to the office, or they may find themselves losing out on in-demand employees. Those that offer a flexible work arrangement that includes the opportunity to work remotely will have a competitive advantage over those that don't, and those companies that force employees back to the office may end up being on the receiving end of the Great Resignation.

Mini-Reviews: This Ordinary Life + A Step Toward Falling
I've been doing mini-reviews for New Adult and Romance books only but I've decided to do the same for YA books when the mood strikes!
This Ordinary Life by Jennifer Walkup
[Publisher: Luminis Books, Inc. | Pub. Date: 10/1/2015 | Genre: YA Contemp]
This was an unexpected gem! I was drawn to it initially because the main character, Jasmine Torres, dreams of becoming a radio host and she's vying for an internship with a New York City radio station. It felt different and fun and as I read, it's a theme that continued throughout. Even though there is a lot of drama too, it just never felt over-the-top. Which is absolutely attributed to Jasmine's no-nonsense attitude. Her younger brother suffers from seizures and because their mother is an alcoholic (something she vehemently denies), that means Jasmine has to step in as mom 99% of the time. The obvious love she and her brother share was incredibly heartwarming. As someone who is very close to her family, that appealed to me greatly. Then she finds out her boyfriend is cheating on her and what does she do? Breaks up with his ass and doesn't look back. (My kind of gal!) She has a best friend who is so supportive and I just loved their repartee. And lastly, there's Wes. Like her brother, he has epilepsy but lives a normal life which gives her hope. He's cute, funny and obviously into her. The way he adorably pursues her was just too sweet for words. The author managed to squeeze in all these characters really well, allowed us to connect with Jasmine's day-to-day life (the radio stuff was so interesting!) while teaching me more about the trials of epilepsy. All in all, great book!
Do I recommend? Yes! This one is flying under the radar and I urge you to check it out.
A Step Toward Falling by Cammie McGovern
[Publisher: HarperTeen | Pub. Date: 10/6/2015 | Genre: YA Contemp]
The story in A Step Toward Falling is one that will make you think and question what you would do in a situation like the one described here. Belinda, a girl with developmental disabilities, is attacked one night at a football game. Two of her fellow classmates, Emily and Lucas, witness the attack and in fear or panic, freeze up and do nothing. When the school finds out, both Emily and Lucas are required to perform community service at a center for disabled people. The chapters alternate between Emily and Belinda's point-of-views as they each deal with the aftermath. Belinda's perspective was eye-opening in a lot of ways. We learn a lot about her disability, what she's capable of (and vice-versa), her hopes and dreams. But it was also difficult to read because as a reader, I knew she was interpreting situations differently from the reality and it could be uncomfortable. That was definitely the strength of her chapters though. With Emily, she's never really fit in and doesn't have the best support system (one of my gripes about the book) but she's always been the type of person to do the right thing. Until that moment with Belinda. It would be easy to judge her but instead, I chose to be open to her personal journey of becoming engaged with her community service, trying to make things up to Belinda and discovering who she really wants to be.
Do I recommend? I liked the story itself a lot and I was interested in the characters (Belinda, Emily and Lucas) all individually but I didn't feel as though I got to know them as well as I had hoped.
I'm hoping to read This Ordinary Life soon (I'm trying to prioritize the shorter books I got at BEA) so I'm really excited to hear that you enjoyed it. Yay!
Alexa S. October 14, 2015 at 1:22 PM
This Ordinary Life sounds like a really great read! (And I really love that cover.) After reading your review for it, I feel like I should give it a shot myself since you enjoyed it so much.

Our inaugural Terra Sans Pave trail runs took place Saturday, September 13th at Linne Woods Forest Preserve in Morton Grove, Illinois. 25 intrepid trail runners braved the unseasonably cool weather... 17 raced eight kilometers while eight opted for our 1-lap tour of four kilometers.
9:00 am race time official weather statistics: 47°F, partly cloudy, with NW winds of 13 mph, 77% humidity. Our racecourse was saturated from persistent rain that fell during the lead-up to race-day. Trail sections had "sometimes skirtable" puddles, punctuated with many soft-mud spots while grassy stretches remained wet with morning dew. Volunteers were deployed at critical turns to keep runners "on course." A handful of downed trees lay randomly across the trail allowing runners a chance to demonstrate their "bounding prowess." As they warmed up, more than one 8-km participant shed a layer of clothes upon completion of their first lap.
Afterward... participants and volunteers gathered for refreshments and to share tales of their trail-running adventures. Judging by the smiles and skyward-pointed thumbs... a good time was had by all!
Start / Finish line set up: Paul Hendrickson, Mike Vlasak, Stuart Gootnick.
Course centurions and marshalling: Laura Downey, Kathleen Downey, Stuart Gootnick, Paul Hendrickson.
Photography: Jessie Krawitz, Karen Davis, Michelle Thom, Bill Thom.
Post-race grill-masters: Kevin Listro and Irene Smielewski.

Crash in Practice Complicates Tveter's Weekend at Red Bull Ring
SPIELBERG, Styria, Austria, Aug. 3 — Ryan Tveter's first FIA Formula 3 Europe event at the Red Bull Ring last weekend left him anxious to return to the 2.688-mile, nine-turn road course in the Alps to give it another go.
After earning his first points in the series at the most recent event July 10-12 in Zandvoort, the Netherlands, hopes were high for another great result at the Red Bull Ring. As it turned out the 21-year-old rookie from Oyster Bay, N.Y. was just glad to get some laps in, and he left Austria very thankful for the work of his team, Jagonya Ayam! with Carlin, and the sportsmanship of his fellow competitors.
Things started off well. Tveter was running seventh in the first practice session on Friday, but then he spun after accidentally running slightly wide over some wet AstroTurf that was laid on the exit of the high-speed Turn 8 to prevent drivers from intentionally running wide and gaining an advantage. His car went into and over the small sausage apex curb backwards at the next corner and became airborne. Tveter wasn't hurt, but the impact cracked both the engine and the tub of the yellow #26.
Switching to a new tub at that stage required special permission from the FIA, which agreed to the plan provided all the other teams would sign off on the idea. Showing great sportsmanship, the other teams agreed that Tveter would be able to start all three races from the pit lane, and his team put in very late hours getting the new car and engine ready in short order.
Starting on pit lane made another points-paying finish improbable, but Tveter's primary goal is seat time so he was just glad he was able to race.
With no shakedown run he only made a few laps in the first race on Saturday morning due to a problem with the car's fuel pressure, which the team fixed on pit lane.
After starting on pit lane in 33rd place again for the second race on Saturday, he had moved up two positions by lap seven after Tatiana Calderon spun and the driver who was sixth, Sergio Sette Camara, got a drive-through penalty for jumping the start. Right before that Tveter turned lap six in 1:26.754, which was faster than Gustavo Menezes did that circuit while running 11th.
Sette Camara passed both Tveter and Calderon working lap eight to push Tveter to 32nd, but he gained two positions working lap 12 when he passed Kang Ling and Mahaveer Raghunathan. Ling got him back two laps later. Tveter had three more good laps in the 1:26s but then his race ended prematurely when he went off course near Turns 4 and 5 and got stuck in a gravel trap, bringing out the event's only full-course caution.
The preliminary action and Saturday's races were held in perfect weather conditions, but heavy rain caused Sunday's race to be delayed and then eventually abandoned with five laps complete due to standing water on the course. Tveter had moved up two spots early after Julio Moreno spun and Ling pitted, but it was all for naught.
A large crowd was on hand on both Saturday and Sunday. Actors Michael Douglas and his wife, Catherine Zeta-Jones, were among those in attendance Sunday.
"I want to thank the Jagonya Ayam! with Carlin team for its hard work, the other teams for their sportsmanship, and the FIA for allowing us to use a new tub," Tveter said.
"Normally a spin in an area with a lot of run off like Turn 8, even if it's a high-speed corner, is harmless and you just keep going. However, somehow this one ended in damage to the two most vital parts of the car, the carbon tub and the engine, after impact with a one-square-meter sausage curb at the apex of the next corner.
"It looked like our weekend was over right after free practice 1, so I'm incredibly lucky to have been able to get out and do any laps in the races. Again, a massive thank you to the team for rebuilding the entire car overnight. I've left this weekend behind and am totally focused on bouncing back for the next round at Portimao after the summer break."
The next event is Sept. 4-6 in Portimao, Portugal, followed by the Nurburgring in Germany Sept. 25-27. The season finale is Oct. 16-18 in Hockenheim, Germany.

I love BJ, HK or Shanghai?
On July 20, 2011, in Beijing, Cool Places, Shanghai, by Jack Li
So you want to visit China? And you're short on time or budget? Or maybe instead of rushing to visit all China's highlights you prefer to explore one place in depth? You don't have to be reminded what China has to offer – what you're looking for is the essence of all that. Before you […]
So you want to visit China? And you're short on time or budget? Or maybe instead of rushing to visit all China's highlights you prefer to explore one place in depth? You don't have to be reminded what China has to offer – what you're looking for is the essence of all that. Before you book a flight with China Flights and find accommodation with China Hotels, take a look at the 3 biggest metropolises in the country and decide where you could make the most of your China experience.
A few facts
Beijing: There are no words to describe Beijing shortly. It is a political, cultural and education capital of China; it's been called 'one of the greatest cities in the world'. It has long and fascinating history and is extremely diverse – 'old Beijing' mixes with modernity on every step!
Shanghai: With over 19m citizens, one million more than Beijing, Shanghai is China's most populous city. It is very modern and international; you will find many clubs and bars here if you're after nightlife. Beware of the hot and humid climate!
Hong Kong: It's one of the two special autonomous regions in China. Situated in the Pearl River Delta at South China Sea, it's one of the most important Chinese seaports. A truly international metropolis, HK is home to the best universities in the country. Moreover, it's one of the most densely populated areas in the world.
If you are interested in Chinese history and culture, Beijing is the place to go! It's rich in cultural attractions, e.g. The Forbidden City, Temple of Heaven, Summer Palace, hutongs and many more. The city follows Chinese way and rhythm of life. However, don't be put off by Shanghai or HK – even though they don't have much to offer, you can go outside the city (Suzhou, Nanjing, Wuxi from Shanghai and Guangzhou from HK) and admire the sites without the bustle.
With headquarters of all banks, Beijing is not only a political, but also a financial capital of the country. It is because all of the banks set up their headquarters here, due to the proximity of government institutions, essential in the corporate culture based on guanxi. Beijing has definitely more of a Chinese flavour and it is said to be more welcoming to foreigners.
Often regarded as China's leading financial centre, Shanghai has 4 financial exchange centres. Business runs on a basis similar to the West, which is why Shanghai is preferred by many foreigners. Most of the domestic and international banks follow dual headquarters strategy, setting up offices in both Beijing and Shanghai, however there is an increasing level of authority being shifted to Shanghai.
Seen as New York of China, Hong Kong was ranked in top 5 world's financial centres in 2009. It is a bigger, less regulated, market, where companies are considered to operate at better quality. Because of a greater degree of free market, HK is still ahead of both Shanghai and Beijing in eyes of many businessmen.
Where to go, then?
HK, BJ and Shanghai compliment themselves, creating what's recently become world's second largest economy. Which city to chose will depend on your personal preferences – if you put culture and rich history in the first place, Beijing is an obvious choice. However, if you are after the bustle of an Asian megacity – seemingly similar to the West, but with its distinct Chinese touch – consider going to Hong Kong or Shanghai. Did you make up your mind?

What connects a regular movie goer, an enthusiast of Chinese culture and a traveller? They all can find their passion in Chinese cinema. The long thriving Chinese film industry is not only a source of magical and thought-provoking productions, but it also enables a viewer to 'travel' through China, its history and legends. If you still haven't booked your tour with China Tours – but also if you already know at which Beijing Hotel you're staying – immerse yourself in the world of Chinese cinema and explore more about China and its culture!
With movies of all genres, everyone will find something of personal interest in Chinese cinema. First of all, let me introduce you to the so-called Fifth Generation of Chinese filmmakers. 1980s and 1990s marked the beginning of the popularisation of Chinese productions (mainly Beijing-based) among international viewers. The most renowned titles of that era include 'Raise the Red Lanterns' (1991), 'The Story of Qiu Ju' (1992) and 'Shanghai Triad' (1995) by Zhang Yimou, as well as 'Farewell My Concubine' (1993) by Chen Kaige. 'The Story of Qiu Ju' and 'Farewell My Concubine' were awarded the Golden Lion and the Golden Palm respectively. The most prominent actress of that era was Gong Li, becoming one of the most recognizable Chinese in the West.
Since mid-1990s a new Sixth Generation took the lead in Chinese cinema. In contrast with diverse style and interests of the previous generation, movies made since the beginning of that era till present are more focused on issues concerning Chinese society. A new genre called wuxia, depicting the adventures of martial artists, was derived from literature. Production of that era have been widely promoted in the West, with such titles as Ang Lee's 'Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon' (2000, coproduction); Zhang Yimou's 'Not One Less' (1999), 'Hero' (2002), 'The House of Flying Daggers' (2004) and 'Curse of the Golden Flower' (2006); Chen Kaige's 'The Emperor and The Assassin' (1998), 'Together' (2002) and 'The Promise' (2005); Feng Xiaogang's 'The Banquet' (2006) and Zhang Yuan's 'Beijing Bastards' (1993) – one of the first independent Chinese films. Sixth generation produced such actors of international fame as Jet Li and Zhang Ziyi.
Along with Beijing, Hong Kong is the main Chinese filmmaking hub. The name of the director Wong Kar-wai is familiar to every passionate film-goer in the world. The popularisation of Hong Kong cinema in 1980s and 1990s is attributed to kung-fu films starring Jet Li and world-famous Jackie Chan movies. Cantonese productions differ significantly from Mandarin ones in terms of style and topics. Balancing on the edges of the mainstream, they are more provocative, mysterious and violent. The must-see HK movies include Jackie Chan's 'Drunken Master' (1978); John Woo's 'A Better Tomorrow' (1986); Wong Kar-wai's 'Days of Being Wild' (1990), 'Chungking Express' (1994) and '2046' (2004). The biggest starts of his movies are Maggie Cheung, Leslie Cheung and Tony Leung Chiu-Wai.
I highly recommend you to watch at least a few of these movies. And once you've seen Beijing, Shanghai and Canton in the films, turn to China Travel for travel advice and tours.

Q: Make Xcode skip nib compilation I'm creating an application which must be 'hacker compatible', so that people can edit nibs and stuff. However, when I show package contents, the nibs are compiled so I can't open them in IB. Is there a way I can make Xcode don't compile the nibs?
Thanks

A: Open up your target's Properties window and choose the Rules tab. That is where all the rules live that do things like compile xib files into nib files. You can change the actions for the rules that affect "Interface Builder files" (xib) and "Nib files", or you can create a new custom rule, which will be used handled first.
Another option is to create a Run Script Build Phase with a script that copies the xib files into your bundle, bypassing any processing normally done by Xcode.

A: Can you embed the NIB as a resource in the resources section, instead of or in addition to compiling them in?
Then you can load the NIB as a resource for your users to view in an XML editor, or to save on their machines and edit in IB.

Worcester : An investigation has found that a surgeon at a Massachusetts hospital removed a kidney from the wrong patient after failing to confirm the patient's identity.
State and federal health investigators say the surgeon in July was supposed to remove a kidney with a tumor from a patient at St. Vincent Hospital in Worcester, but instead removed a healthy kidney from a different patient with the same name.
Authorities say the hospital failed to follow proper patient identification protocols by checking birth dates. The patients were several years apart in age.
The hospital in a statement said it is taking "all necessary steps" to prevent a similar error.
Protocols of marking the site and the side of operation with skin marker is followed in many teaching Institutes in India. That\'s the best way to avoid event the accidental wrong procedure .
Don\'t they interact patient in OR about the Surgery from OR registration till just before inducing anesthesia. It\'s shame indeed. A simple conversation with patient would have saved his kidney.
This is an unforgivable crime, for the nurses concerned and the doctors including the anesthesiologist.
I have been irritated so many times in CA by personnel asking repeatedly my name and age even for a blood test.
I guess the rules are different in MA and NY where a Neurosurgeon a few years ago opened the wrong side of skull in a brain tumor case.

Phillies relievers should be more accustomed to undefined roles this season | Bob Brookover
Updated: March 19, 2019 - 1:09 PM
Bob Brookover | @brookob | bbrookover@inquirer.com
David Robertson is open to whatever role the Phillies find for him: "I'll pitch whenever. Whatever gives us the best chance to win."
YONG KIM / Staff Photographer
WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. – Before the trade for J.T. Realmuto and before the signing of Bryce Harper, the Phillies were confident about one thing as they prepared for spring training: They were sure that they had one of the better bullpens in baseball.
That belief was based on some valid points, starting with the addition of free-agent right-hander David Robertson, an established veteran with closer experience and the willingness to pitch whatever inning he is called upon by manager Gabe Kapler. Robertson's stated flexibility should not be underestimated because a year ago the Phillies had a group of relievers who had never dealt with Kapler's style of handling the bullpen.

Roles were undefined. Matchups mattered most. Not everybody was always happy.
Reliever Seranthony Dominguez is among the reasons the Philies have high hopes for their bullpen this season.
"It was different," Phillies reliever Pat Neshek admitted. "I was a part of a lot of teams that had an eighth-inning guy and a closer, and you get used to that. But now I'm totally fine with what we have here. If everybody does their thing, this could be like a well-oiled machine. Seranthony [Dominguez] goes two, then the next guy goes one and here we go. It's all fine as long as we know that is how it's going to be. I'm at the point where I will do whatever they want me to do. I just want to be prepared to pitch in a lot of games."
Kapler admitted earlier this spring that not everybody might have been on board last season with his bullpen plan.

"I think that's really fair," he said. "We started [to implement change] with conversations in the offseason before spring training last year, and I'm sure those conversations were somewhat foreign and guys wanted to see how things would play out. Then as we started to utilize our bullpen in a way that put guys in their best positions to succeed and sometimes in uncomfortable situations and they still had success, it became less foreign and a little bit more natural.
"That's not to say we're all the way there. I think we keep taking steps in that direction. It gets more and more familiar to guys as we walk down this road."
The Phillies have three relievers with the stuff and mentality to be closers. Robertson, who turns 34 next month, has been one of baseball's best relievers over the last decade and has 137 career saves. He also has the ability to pitch multiple innings when needed, a bullpen trait that has become increasingly valuable in recent years.
"I came here with open arms," Robertson said. "I'll pitch whenever. Whatever gives us the best chance to win. I just like the ability to be in the back end of games in tight situations. When the going gets tough, that's when I want to be in there. If I get a chance to close some games, that's great. If I pitch in the sixth, seventh or eighth inning, so be it. If that's what they need me to do, that's what I'll do."
Dominguez and former Phillies closer Hector Neris are also a huge reason for the confidence that Kapler and general manager Matt Klentak brought to spring training. The Phillies feel they have one of the most electric relief arms in baseball in Dominguez, who made the jump from double-A Reading to the big leagues early last season and posted a 1.85 ERA and 12 saves in his first 34 games before faltering down the stretch like the rest of the team.
"I have seen him a few times and I've seen some of the highlight videos of him and he's very impressive," Robertson said. "The kid can bring it."
Neris overcame a disastrous first half and a midseason demotion to regain the form that had made him the team's best reliever in 2016 and 2017. He had a 6.90 ERA when he was sent to Lehigh Valley on June 29. He had a 2.04 ERA in his final 20 games upon returning.
As always, not everything has gone according to plan this spring. For the second straight year, Tommy Hunter (strained elbow) is unlikely to be ready for the start of the season. Victor Arano is the leading candidate to take his place in the pen based on how well he has pitched the last two seasons (2.57 ERA in 70 games), but he has had an incredibly bad spring as reflected by his 51.00 ERA.
Still, confidence is high from where the manager is sitting.
"I think we have a lot of guys who can [pitch] big innings," Kapler said.
The question is how and when will Kapler use them, and how will those pitchers respond?
"I'm sure at some point the roles will narrow down and guys might be used in different scenarios, but we'll know when those scenarios are coming," Robertson said.
That probably will be the key to the Phillies' bullpen being as good as Klentak and Kapler believe.

La  (en occitan : carrièra de Pèiriola) est une voie publique de Toulouse, chef-lieu de la région Occitanie, dans le Midi de la France. Elle sépare les quartiers Bonnefoy à l'ouest et Marengo-Jolimont à l'est, tous dans le secteur 4 - Est.

Situation et accès

Description
La rue de Périole est une voie publique, longue de . Elle naît au nord du boulevard de Marengo. Dans sa première partie, orientée au nord et longue de 373 mètres, elle est relativement rectiligne et large de 10 mètres. Elle longe à gauche les bâtiments de la gare Matabiau, donnant naissance à droite à la rue Émile-Zola, puis à la rue Bernard-Ortet, avant d'atteindre le rond-point qui se forme au carrefour de la rue des Cheminots et de la rue Claude-Perrault. Dans sa deuxième partie, longue de 1221 mètres, la rue de Périole s'oriente au nord-est et suit un parcours plus tortueux, qui épouse le coteau de la butte du Calvinet, s'élevant de 146 mètres au niveau du carrefour de la rue des Cheminots, à 161 mètres (face au ). Elle traverse alors le bas du faubourg Bonnefoy, rencontrant successivement les rues François-Arago, Noémie-Dessalles, d'Armagnac, Saint-Louis, Jean-Aicard et Albert-Sorel. Elle s'abaisse ensuite régulièrement à 146 mètres, au niveau de l'avenue Yves-Brunaud et de la place de la Roseraie, où elle se termine. Elle est prolongée au nord-est par la route d'Agde.

La chaussée est définie comme une chaussée à voie centrale banalisée. Elle ne compte qu'une seule voie de circulation automobile à double-sens, bordée par une bande cyclable dans chaque sens. De plus, la vitesse y est limitée à .

Transports
La rue de Périole n'est pas directement desservie par les transports en commun Tisséo. À son origine, du côté du boulevard de Marengo, elle se trouve cependant à proximité immédiate de la station Marengo – SNCF, sur la ligne de métro , et des arrêts des lignes du Linéo  et du bus . À son débouché, sur l'avenue Yves-Brunaud, se trouvent la station Roseraie, ainsi que les arrêts des lignes de bus .

Il n'existe pas non plus de stations de vélos en libre-service VélôToulouse le long de la rue de Périole. Les plus proches sont les stations  (5 rue Leduc) et  (avenue Yves-Brunaud).

Odonymie
L'origine du nom de Périole est obscure. La trace la plus ancienne date de la première moitié du  : le toponyme latin apud Peyriolas désigne un lieu-dit de Balma, dans la plaine de l'Hers, près du chemin de Montrabé et de Lavaur (actuelle route de Lavaur, près du  rue de la Tuilerie à Balma). Il semble que ce soit au  que le nom s'étendit au terroir et au pont voisin qui franchissait l'Hers. De là, le nom de Peiriolle, Peyriolle ou Périole fut donné à plusieurs chemins qui, du côté de Toulouse, aboutissaient au pont : ainsi, le chemin de Nicol fut désigné comme le chemin de Périole jusqu'en 1936.

La rue de Périole, entre la rue des Cheminots et l'avenue Yves-Brunaud, était une partie d'un long chemin qui, depuis la porte Matabiau (emplacement de l'actuelle place Jeanne-d'Arc), traversait la campagne toulousaine et était désigné comme le chemin de Montrabé ou le chemin de Lavaur. Il prit au  le nom de chemin de Bayard, qu'il devait à la famille Bayard qui possédait un moulin à blé utilisant la force de la chute d'eau de l'écluse de Bayard sur le canal du Midi. En 1856, le chemin de Bayard fut coupé par les voies de la ligne de chemin de fer et la construction de la gare Matabiau. Une rue nouvelle fut tracée entre la place Marengo et le chemin de Bayard : on lui donna le nom de chemin Bessières en 1856, puis de rue de Périole en 1879. C'est en 1935 que, dans un souci de clarification, le nom de Périole fut définitivement appliqué au chemin de Bayard.

C'est en 1982 que la municipalité de Pierre Baudis se préoccupa d'aménager l'espace central en jardin public. Le jardin est nommé en l'honneur d'Edmond Michelet (1899-1970) : originaire de Brive-la-Gaillarde, proche des idées du catholicisme social, il s'engagea dès 1940 dans la Résistance, puis mena une longue carrière politique jusqu'à sa mort. Le 5 novembre 2019, l'allée centrale du jardin a été nommée Monsonego-Sandler, en hommage aux trois enfants Myriam Monsonégo, Arié et Gabriel Sandler, et à Jonathan Sandler, professeur et rabbin, assassinés par Mohamed Merah le 19 mars 2012 devant l'école juive Ozar Hatorah.

 jardin Pierre-Rous. Le jardin est inauguré le 18 août 1984 par le maire, Dominique Baudis. Il porte le nom de Pierre Rous (1910-1981), résistant toulousain qui dirigea le réseau Morhange à la mort de Marcel Taillandier.

Animals Animal Rights
The Argument for Animal Rights
How are those rights different from human rights?
Doris Lin
Doris Lin an animal rights attorney and the Director of Legal and Government Affairs for the Animal Protection League of New Jersey.
Advocacy groups and humanitarians alike have long argued for the rights of animals around the world, fighting for their right as sentient creatures to a life free of torture and suffering. Some advocate for not using animals as food, clothing or other goods and others such as vegans even go as far as to denounce the use of animal by-products.
In the United States, people often say that they love animals and that they consider their pets to be part of the family, but many draw the line at animal rights. Isn't it enough that we treat them humanely? Why should animals have rights? What rights should animals have? How are those rights different from human rights?
The fact of the matter is that since the U.S. Department of Agriculture issued the 1966 Animal Welfare Act, even animals used in commercial farming are entitled to a certain base-level of treatment. But that differs from the wants of animal rights activist groups like People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) or the more extreme British direct-action group known as the Animal Liberation Front.
Animal Rights Versus Animal Welfare
The animal welfare view, which is distinguishable from the animal rights view, is that humans can use and exploit animals as long as the animals are treated humanely and the use is not too frivolous. To animal rights activists, the main problem with this view is that humans do not have the right to use and exploit animals, no matter how well the animals are treated. Buying, selling, breeding, confining, and killing animals infringe on the animals' rights, no matter how "humanely" they are treated.
Furthermore, the idea of treating animals humanely is vague and means something different to everyone. For instance, an egg farmer may think that there is nothing wrong with killing male chicks by grinding them up alive to cut feeding costs versus yield. Also, "cage-free eggs" are not as humane as the industry would have us believe. In fact, a cage-free egg operation buys their eggs from the same hatcheries that factory farms buy from, and those hatcheries kill the male chicks as well.
The idea of "humane" meat also seems absurd to animal rights activists, since the animals must be killed to obtain the meat. And for farms to be profitable, those animals are killed as soon as they reach slaughter weight, which is still very young.
Why Should Animals Have Rights?
Animal rights activism is based on the idea that animals are sentient and that speciesism is wrong, the former of which is scientifically backed — an international panel of neuroscientists declared in 2012 that non-human animals have consciousness — and the latter is still hotly contested among humanitarians.
Animal rights activists argue that because animals are sentient, the only reason humans are treated differently is speciesism, which is an arbitrary distinction based on the incorrect belief that humans are the only species deserving of moral consideration. Speciesism, like racism and sexism, is wrong because of animals popular in the meat industry like cows, pigs and chickens suffer when confined, tortured and slaughtered and there is no reason to morally distinguish between humans and non-human animals.
The reason that people have rights is to prevent unjust suffering. Similarly, the reason that animal rights activists want animals to have rights is to prevent them from suffering unjustly. We have animal cruelty statutes to prevent some animal suffering, although U.S law prohibits only the most egregious, extraordinary animal cruelty. These laws do nothing to prevent most forms of animal exploitation, including fur, veal, and foie gras.
Human Rights Versus Animal Rights
No one is asking for animals to have the same rights as humans, but in an animal rights activist's ideal world, animals would have the right to live free of human use and exploitation — a vegan world where animals are no longer used for food, clothing or entertainment.
While there is some debate as to what basic human rights are, most people recognize that other humans have certain fundamental rights. According to the United Nations' Universal Declaration of Human Rights, human rights include "the right to life, liberty and security of person..an adequate standard of living...to seek and to enjoy in other countries asylum from persecution...to own property...freedom of opinion and expression...to education...of thought, conscience and religion; and the right to freedom from torture and degrading treatment, among others."
These rights are different from animal rights because we have the power to ensure that other humans have access to food and housing, are free from torture, and can express themselves. On the other hand, it's not in our power to ensure that every bird has a nest or that every squirrel has an acorn. Part of animal rights is leaving the animals alone to live their lives, without encroaching on their world or their lives.

The past weekend was exceptionally fun. We took a trip out to San Francisco to hit up the California Academy of Sciences. My older brother had never been, so we thought it would be fun to check it out on his birthday weekend. It has been a while since the last time we went, so I was pretty stoked to go.
My favorite part of this place was definitely the aquatic exhibits. Sea life has always been so intriguing to me. Perhaps it's because I looked up to Ariel (the Disney mermaid) as a little kid, haha! Now, if mermaids were only real… 😉 I suppose sea dragons and seahorses of the deep blue will suffice.
On another note, not much has changed in the California Academy of Science's exhibits, but I still managed to learn something new.
If you are ever in the area, you should check this place out. It's definitely worth the visit.
PS: Happy early birthday, brother!
A white alligator? How cool!
shush! don't ruin it for me. lol.
Don't think I have been there. Looks fun!

One of Hinckley's most popular bars shut it's doors today after the company that owned it went into administration.
The Gravity on Regent Street, which was decked out in Halloween decoration, was closed at around 2.30pm.
A sign on the door said: "Due to unforeseen circumstances we are now closed until further notice."
Another sign said: "Bramwell Pub Company Limited and Bramwell Pubs and Bars Limited - in administration (the companies)."
A passer by said that customers were told to leave suddenly this afternoon.

Home / News / Brexit: what does it mean for financial markets to be open?
Speech by Andrew Bailey, Chief Executive of the FCA, at City Week 'The International Financial Services Forum'.
Before I do, I will make one point: we – that's the UK and the European Union (EU27) - will not be able to achieve a successful outcome during both transition and steady-state without working together. Now is the time for the UK and EU authorities to come together and work on the solutions to reduce the risks to financial stability that Brexit could pose. At the FCA we want to work closely with European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA) and national EU regulators to continue to enhance the stability and effectiveness of global markets. This has global implications, not just for the UK and EU, so it is important that we get this right.
To reiterate, regulators and authorities in the UK and the EU share common objectives to preserve financial stability, and we have a common obligation to do everything we can and work together to do that.
I welcome the agreement at the European Council on 23 March 2018 that there should be a transition or implementation period. UK withdrawal from the EU without such an agreement would create risks for both the UK and the EU27 of a so called cliff edge - which we should all want to avoid. The UK Government, supported by regulators, has taken a strong and very welcome stand on the need for a transition or implementation period, and I am encouraged by the acceptance of this point on both sides. This matters in financial services because the risks around contract continuity, data sharing, and broader market disruption could jeopardise financial stability, the preservation of which is a shared objective of both sides. If you want to know more about these risks, there is a useful description in the statement of the Bank of England's Financial Policy Committee following its most recent meeting in March.
On day one of Brexit the UK and the EU will have deeply integrated financial markets with aligned regulatory rules. That is a benefit to both sides. Moreover, the benefits of open markets are worth preserving. And we can do it.
On this basis, mutual recognition seems to be to be eminently achievable.

Q: Simple way of fetching the number of check ins and display them on website Dear fellow coffee junks,
I am new to the Graph and have been profiting from this forum a lot, also contributed at least a little. I dug myself into the documentation these days to find an easy way to fetch the number of my groups check ins to display them on my website. I found it quite hard to understand the facebook docs and wanted to ask if anyone of you has ever done that, can provide a little code, advice, ideas?
What I am looking for is as simple as for example displaying a div that says: x People have visited Bordemundo B&B so far - wheras x stands for the number of check ins provided by the Facebook Api.
Saludos desde Chile!

A: Yes, do an HTTP GET to http://graph.facebook.com/Bordemundo
and read the "checkins" property.

Era atteso al Teatro di San Carlo di Napoli il 29 e 30 ottobre, per dirigere il violinista Vadim Repin, Sir Neville Marriner – direttore d'orchestra, violinista, fondatore dell'Academy of St. Martin in the Fields – che si è spento ieri all'età di 92 anni. E pochi giorni fa, al Teatro Verdi di Padova, aveva diretto l'Orchestra di Padova e del Veneto, per celebre i 50 anni dell'orchestra.
Ad annunciarne la morte è stata proprio la compagine inglese, della quale Marriner, dopo la direzione fino al 1992, era ormai Presidente a vita.
Nominato Comandante dell'Impero Britannico (1979) e poi Baronetto (1985) per i servizi resi alla musica, Marriner, come il suo mentore, Pierre Monteux, aveva iniziato la sua vita musicale con lo studio del violino. Dopo aver suonato in formazione di Trio e Quartetto d'archi, diventa violinista della London Symphony Orchestra e durante questo periodo che fonda l'Academy of St. Martin in the Fields.
Nel 1969, dopo aver studiato direzione d'Orchestra con Pierre Monteux, ha inizio la sua carriera di direttore: fonda la Los Angeles Chamber Orchestra e, dopo aver ricoperto qui, per 10 anni, la carica di Direttore Principale, diventa Direttore Principale della Minnesota Orchestra e subito dopo dell'Orchestra della Radio di Stoccarda. In tutti questi anni continua il suo intenso lavoro con l'Academy.
Il suo debutto operistico avviene con Le Nozze di Figaro al Festival di Aix en Provence, negli USA, a Los Angeles, con La Cenerentola. Tra gli artisti più prolifici nell'ambito della discografia di musica classica, Marriner è stato Direttore Musicale e Artistico nell'elaborazione e incisione della colonna sonora del film Amadeus che ricevette tre Grammy Awards. È stato insignito dell'Ordre des arts et Lettres dal Ministero della Cultura Francese per il costante impegno in campo musicale e il grande apporto alla vita culturale francese. Nel 1994 l'Academy of St. Martin in the Fields e Sir Neville Marriner hanno ottenuto il Queen's Award for Export Achievement quale riconoscimento dell'enorme successo internazionale in campo concertistico e discografico.
Born on 15 April 1924 in Lincoln, Sir Neville Marriner studied at the Royal College of Music and the Paris Conservatoire. He began his career as a violinist, playing first in a string quartet and trio, then in the London Symphony Orchestra. It was during this period that he founded the Academy, with the aim of forming a top-class chamber ensemble from London's finest players. Beginning as a group of friends who gathered to rehearse in Sir Neville's front room, the Academy gave its first performance in its namesake church in 1959. The Academy now enjoys one of the largest discographies of any chamber orchestra worldwide, and its partnership with Sir Neville Marriner is the most recorded of any orchestra and conductor. Honoured three times for his services to music in this country – most recently being made a Companion of Honour by Her Majesty The Queen in June 2015 – Sir Neville Marriner has also been awarded honours in France, Germany and Sweden. As a player, Sir Neville Marriner had observed some of the greatest conductors at close quarters. He worked as an extra under Toscanini and Furtwängler, with Joseph Krips, George Szell, Stokowski and mentor Pierre Monteux. Sir Neville began his conducting career in 1969, after his studies in America with Maestro Monteux. There he founded the Los Angeles Chamber Orchestra, at the same time as developing and extending the size and repertoire of the Academy. In 1979 he became Music Director and Principal Conductor of both the Minneapolis Symphony Orchestra and the Südwest Deutsche Radio Orchestra in Stuttgart, positions he held until the late 1980s. Subsequently he has continued to work with orchestras round the globe in Vienna, Berlin, Paris, Milan, Athens, New York, Boston, San Francisco and Tokyo. In 2011 Sir Neville was appointed Honorary Conductor of the newly formed I, Culture Orchestra which brings together the most talented young musicians from Eastern Europe. Sir Neville was Music Director of the Academy from its formation in1958 to 2011 when he became Life President and handed the baton of Music Director to violinist Joshua Bell. Academy Music Director, Joshua Bell said: "I am deeply saddened by the news of Sir Neville Marriner's passing. He was one of the most extraordinary human beings I have ever known. I will remember him for his brilliance, his integrity, and his humor, both on and off the concert platform. Maestro Marriner will always be the heart and soul of the Academy of St Martin in the Fields, and we musicians of the orchestra will miss him dearly." Chairman of the Academy, Paul Aylieff said: "We are greatly saddened by today's news. Sir Neville's artistic and recording legacy, not only with the Academy but with orchestras and audiences worldwide is immense. He will be greatly missed by all who knew and worked with him and the Academy will ensure it continues to be an excellent and fitting testament to Sir Neville." The Marriner family are very touched by all the messages of sympathy from people reminding them how much fun it was to be with Neville.
