Private lessons and coaching improve the educational opportunities of many children with Arab migrant background in Berlin. At the same time, university students show an enormous potential to engage in volunteer work. Schülerpaten Berlin e.V. provides a platform to bring both volunteers and children together in a one-on-one mentorship relation.
This project seeks to pave the way for better educational opportunities by individual tutoring, to broaden the horizon of both kids and tutors and to enhance cultural exchange. Seminars for volunteers convey educational skills as well as knowledge and understanding of the Arab culture. Al Nadi, a consulting center for Arab women in Berlin, matches mentors and mentees. The training and placement of one volunteer costs 150 €. With your support, Schülerpaten e.V. will be able to train and place tutors for three more children.


This week we are sharing the super healthy egg recipe Miniature omelettes with ricotta, a great option for summer parties.
Eggs are a great nutrient rich convenience food. They are probably the most versatile protein food available and work perfectly on their own, scrambled, poached or boiled as a quick snack or in omelettes, muffins or pancakes to make a main meal. They are also so cheap and tasty and can be combined with whatever meat or vegetables which are leftover in the fridge.
Add a ladleful (about 1/3) of egg mixture and tip mixture so it covers base. Reduce heat and cook omelette until just firm, then flip over and cook the other. Keep warm.
Repeat to make three omelettes, add a little extra oil to pan each time.
Make filling by combining ricotta, basil, parmesan and pepper.
Spread mixture over each omelette, roll up loosely like a cigar and cut into thick slices.

PONARS Eurasia has just published my memo on Russia's Strategic Calculus from our September policy conference in Washington. I'm reposting it here. Lots of other very interesting memos are available on the PONARS website.
Russian foreign policy is driven by the political elites' search for a new basis for national self-esteem after the collapse of the Soviet Union disrupted old Soviet identities. The collapse did not discredit the Soviet Union's status as a great power, which has thus remained a core aspiration for Russian political elites. As a result of their perception of Russia's appropriate status in the world and in their region, they have also sought to maintain Russia's role as a guiding force among the newly independent states that formerly made up the Soviet Union. This combination of Russia as a global great power and regional hegemon is seen as providing the ruling elite with a source of legitimacy with their domestic constituency.
Most of Russia's immediate foreign policy goals are focused on its immediate neighborhood. These include maintaining friendly or at least compliant governments in neighboring states and, failing that, keeping unfriendly neighboring governments weak and off balance. All of this is placed in a global context because in addition to securing its periphery, these goals also serve to prevent encroachment by Western states in Russia's desired geographic sphere of influence.
Beyond these overarching goals, Russian leaders are focused on ensuring Russia's domestic stability, territorial integrity, and sovereignty. These are primarily defensive goals that seek to ensure the survival of the state and its ruling elite in their current form, rather than aggressive goals that seek to expand Russia's territory or its sphere of influence. Most of Russia's military and security policies are designed to secure the state and its current territory against potential attacks and to counter the threats that Russian leaders see facing their country. Moreover, Russian leaders do not really have a well-developed strategy on how to achieve this in their immediate neighborhood. Instead, they have a toolkit of political and military tactics and are open to opportunities to use this toolkit.
The main threats to Russian security, as identified by Russia's political and military leadership, are spelled out in the most recent edition of the country's military doctrine announced in December 2014 (see the English translation of the doctrine). According to these guidelines, the most serious military risk that Russia faces is the expansion of NATO. The potential of NATO enlargement to include former Soviet republics has been seen as a threat by Russian leaders for many years, with concern about Ukraine and Georgia resulting in Russian involvement in conflicts in both of those countries.
While this concern remains uppermost in Russian leaders' minds, in recent years they have also come to focus on the expansion of NATO military infrastructure in existing member states near Russia's borders. The doctrine accordingly identifies military risks associated with "bringing the military infrastructure of NATO member countries near the borders of the Russian Federation" and with the "deployment (build-up) of military contingents of foreign states (groups of states) on the territories of states contiguous with the Russian Federation and its allies, as well as in adjacent waters, including for exerting political and military pressure on the Russian Federation" (Russian Military Doctrine, 12a and 12c).
A third set of security risks faced by Russia concern threats to its nuclear deterrence capability. Missile defense remains at the top of this list, as Russian leaders do not believethat the United States can make a credible commitment to refrain from using such defenses against Russia's nuclear deterrent capability. They are convinced that if the United States were able to develop an effective and financially viable form of defense against ballistic missiles, domestic political pressure would result in it being expanded to counter Russian missiles, regardless of any promises that the leaders of the United States might make in the interim that missile defense is aimed only against rogue states such as Iran and North Korea.
Russian leaders' concerns about threats to Russian nuclear deterrence capabilities have in recent years moved beyond missile defense to include a variety of new technologies, such as the Prompt Global Strike concept for the development of conventional strategic precision-guided munitions and weapons fired from space. The 2014 military doctrine adds these weapons to the list of military risks faced by Russia (Doctrine, 12d). As with missile defense, the concern is that the United States might use such weapons to eliminate Russian nuclear deterrent capability, rendering it defenseless against a NATO or U.S. attack.
Finally, Russian leaders express a genuine concern about the threat posed to Russia by radical Islamist organizations. This concern is usually articulated through the discussion of global terrorism and extremism. The Russian military doctrine highlights the links between radical international armed groupings and inter-ethnic and inter-confessional tensions in the context of a lack of effective international anti-terrorist cooperation (Doctrine, 12j and 12k). The significance of this concern for Russian leaders is highlighted by its choice as the main theme of the 2016 Moscow Conference on International Security. Given Russia's recent history with Islamist insurgency in the North Caucasus and terrorist acts committed throughout Russia by extremists over the last 20 years, Russian leaders recognize the potential for a renewed wave of attacks to destabilize the Russian state.
As is usually the case, the Russian military doctrine does not mention any threats posed by China. Ostensibly, this is because Russia considers China a strategic partner rather than a potential threat. Nevertheless, Russian experts regularly discuss the potential long-term risk of Chinese designs on Russian territory in the Far East and regularly contemplate the short-term danger of Russia becoming excessively dependent on China and being reduced to a Chinese junior partner and energy supplier. Furthermore, the Russian military regularly conducts exercises that are designed to counter a land invasion by a major power in the Far East and Siberia. Although no country is mentioned as the target of these exercises, China is the only country that could threaten Russia with a land invasion from the east.
Overall, in recent years, Russian leaders have become more concerned about the threats they feel are emanating from NATO and the United States. In the aftermath of the Arab Spring and especially after the electoral protests that took place in Russia in 2011-12, they started to emphasize the danger to Russia posed by externally fomented domestic protests and regime change. These combined changes in Russian threat perceptions contributed to a serious deterioration in Russia's relations with the West even before the Ukraine conflict erupted in 2014.
Western planners need to keep in mind that Russian leaders see Russia as weaker than its adversaries and very much on the defensive. This does not preclude a concurrent belief that Russia needs to be proactive and to initiate conflict when critical state interests are threatened and opportunities to seize the initiative present themselves. As a result, Western observers often see Russia as having an aggressive and revanchist mindset, even as Russian leaders perceive their actions as aimed entirely at shoring up their vulnerable security position.
Russian foreign policy remains focused on Europe and the United States. Since the international system remains centered on Euro-Atlantic institutions, Russia's drive for respect in the international system and the geographic proximity of its main population centers to Europe means that Europe remains the primary geographic region of focus for Russian foreign policy. Russian interests in Europe are both economic and political. Economic interests are related primarily to energy sales, while politically Russia seeks to weaken European institutions in order to work bilaterally with individual states.
Russia's second area of concern is its vulnerable southern border. Russian policy in Central Asia and the Caucasus has in recent years been shaped by three divergent perspectives: 1) great power competition in the region, which leads Russian politicians to view the region's problems through a geopolitical and military lens; 2) energy, with a focus on securing exclusive rights for gas and oil transit from the region to Europe; and 3) concern about transnational security threats, such as radical Islamism, terrorism, and drug smuggling.
The internal tension among these perspectives has been the main source of inconsistency in Russian policies in the region. Depending on which perspective is in ascendance, Russian officials alternate between a) focusing on soft security threats, which are best dealt with through the development of cooperative mechanisms with states both in and outside the region, and b) taking steps to limit the influence of outside states in the region as part of an effort to retain a monopoly on energy transit and to come out on top in its rivalry with the United States. In recent years, with the fading of U.S. involvement in Central Asia and the decline in energy prices, Russia has become more focused on ensuring that the region is ruled by friendly regimes and supporting their efforts to prevent internal uprisings and infiltration by Islamist extremists.
In recent years, the Middle East has become more important for Russian foreign policy. Russia's key goals in the region are to reduce instability while increasing its own influence and reducing that of the United States. Russian leaders see U.S. policies that promote democratization as being the main cause of chaos and instability throughout the region. At the same time, Moscow's interests in the Middle East have clearly benefited from overreach by the United States. Russia has worked to use local dissatisfaction with the conduct of the Iraq war and U.S. support for popular protests against local autocrats to restore some of the influence it lost in the Middle East after the collapse of the Soviet Union.
The Russian operation in Syria has done even more to this end, showing that Russia has the interest and resources to be a serious player in the region. The establishment of a permanent military presence in Syria over the last year has further increased Russian influence in the Middle East, to the extent that some analysts argue that Russia now has a commanding position in Syria and perhaps in the region as a whole.
Russia's involvement in the Middle East is fraught with risks as well. The de facto Shia alliance with Iran, Iraq, and Syria has led to tension with Gulf states and (in the recent past) with Turkey and also brings Russia into direct confrontation with ISIS, potentially exposing it to a higher risk of terrorist attacks against Russian interests and/or on Russian territory.
Finally, Russia's turn toward Asia has so far been expressed more in rhetoric than in actual policy. Russian elites are starting to realize that Asia matters in its own right, not just as an adjunct or counterbalance to the West. But so far they have been more adept at recognizing the importance of Asia than in developing effective strategies for engaging with it. In part, this is because old stereotypes of Asia as inferior still dominate. But mostly it is because it is hard to reconcile the pursuit of Russian security and economic interests in Asia with the Russian political elite's Western-centric worldview.
Even in Asia, U.S. behavior in large part determines how Russia responds, since containing and balancing the United States is one of the key missions of Russian foreign policy around the world. This stems in large part from Russian leaders' belief that Russia can be a global power only by limiting the influence of the United States. In Asia, it has tried to do so (with limited success) by building an anti-hegemonic consensus with China and India. At the same time, despite the currently positive relations with China, Russian leaders remain concerned about China's increase in power and long-term intentions, particularly given China's efforts to develop the Silk Road project. They worry that China could replace Russia as the dominant "other" in U.S. foreign affairs, leaving Russia marginalized. For this reason, despite ongoing tension with the United States, Russian leaders are not averse to having the United States work to constrain Chinese ambitions in Asia and around the world. On the whole, Russian objectives in Asia are preventative in nature: containing the United States and China, maintaining Russian influence in the region, and eroding US-led alliances without destabilizing the region, all while staying out of local conflicts.
The election of Donald Trump as president of the United States is unlikely to change Russia's strategic calculus. Russia will continue to seek to maximize its status in the world, possibly by proposing a deal where the United States recognizes its sphere of influence in its immediate neighborhood in exchange for a more cooperative relationship globally. Such a trade would legitimize Russia as a global great power while avoiding the need to expend scarce resources on a global fight for influence with the United States.

Nice analysis and mostly agree, but not sure about this sentence: "Western planners need to keep in mind that Russian leaders see Russia as weaker than its adversaries and very much on the defensive." This may have been true up until recently, but I have noticed a not-too subtle shift in Kremlin rhetoric over the past few years which now claims that Russia is ready and willing to take on its Western adversaries/partners. Perhaps not in a full-blown conventional war, but certainly in a violent knife-fight in an unexpected location. Western planners need to be cognizant that a large part of the Kremlin's legitimacy stems from its perceived ability/willingness to defend Russian interests beyond the country's current borders. Should economic conditions grow much worse, there will likely be an increased danger that the Kremlin will fortify its legitimacy with external aggression.

President responds to HASC report
PSA President Paul Griffiths was part of a panel giving evidence to a Home Affairs Select Committee investigating Home Office preparedness for COVID-19. Today, it has published its findings and recommendations, to which Paul has responded:
"I welcomed the opportunity to provide evidence to the Home Affairs Select Committee and am pleased that the feedback of our Association has been influential in forming the recommendations.
"It is encouraging to note the Committee's support of the national policing strategy to use enforcement as a last resort when it comes to COVID-19 legislation, clearly echoing the value and importance we place on the relationship between the Police and the public.
"We have continually called for clear and consistent messaging to our workforce and to the public when it comes to vital areas such as the application of police powers, the use of personal protective equipment and the realities of what constitutes a 'reasonable excuse' to leave your home. Considerable progress has been made in addressing the confusion in these areas but we are aware that there is still work to be done, so we will be working with colleagues across the Service, and with communities to further promote these vital messages.
"As we enter the second period of lockdown, some of our most pressing concerns lie in the pressures and risks facing those who are most vulnerable within communities and it is crucial that we reach these people who need our help. The committee has highlighted areas such as domestic abuse and fraud as priority areas and we will be working with partners, our colleagues and our communities to ensure people at risk can reach the support they need, whilst deprived of the safety of their social networks."

Gospel text (Mt 8,1-4): Then a leper came forward. He knelt before him and said, «Sir, if you want to, you can make me clean». When Jesus came down from the mountain, large crowds followed him. Then a leper came forward. He knelt before him and said, «Sir, if you want to, you can make me clean». Jesus stretched out his hand, touched him, and said, «I want to, be clean again». At that very moment the man was cleansed from his leprosy. Then Jesus said to him, «See that you do not tell anyone, but go to the priest, have yourself declared clean, and offer the gift that Moses ordered as proof of it».
Today we see an example of how we should ask things to God: with a strong faith. There is no better argument than this: "If you want, you can make me clean" And, because the Lord loves us infinitely, He has no choice but to answer: "I am willing, be clean". But to God we must ask "well" and, in addition, only "good things".
-- To ask for good things, which are worth: this is not so easy! More often than not we ask what we "like" the most, but not "the best". Want a trick? ask for the needs of others. The Virgin Mary did so and it worked out very well.

in the USSR a special educational institution for mentally retarded children.
Students in auxiliary schools are basically those children suffering from oligophrenia to the level of feeblemindedness. Also assigned to these schools are children with a slight degree of mental insufficiency caused by traumatic or organic damage to the brain, children suffering from epilepsy (only during rare, nocturnal fits), and children of the "simple" type of schizophrenia (without expressed psychotic symptoms). The question of assigning children to auxiliary schools is decided by a medical-pedagogical commission, the staff of which includes employees of the divisions of public education, public health, and learning problems, as well as a logopedic (speech defect) specialist and a children's psychoneurologist. Children are usually sent before this medical-pedagogical commission after one year of instruction at a public school and a careful check of the feasibility of leaving them there.
Auxiliary schools have eight grades. General educational instruction is carried on by means of special programs and corresponds approximately to the content of general educational instruction at elementary public schools. More than one-third of the learning time is devoted to labor instruction, which, beginning in the fourth grade, is occupational in character. The specific tasks of the auxiliary schools are the psychic and physical healing of the children, correction of insufficient cognitive capacity and of defects in speech development, and preparation for simple kinds of work. This educational work is carried out by specialists in the field of teaching mentally retarded children. The staffs of auxiliary schools are provided with a physician-psychoneurologist and a nurse. Each class can have no more than 16 pupils.
Auxiliary schools are within the system of general educational institutions under the jurisdiction of the ministries of education, and they constitute a part of the system of schools for abnormal children. Most of the auxiliary schools have boarding school facilities. Some of the city schools, where there are no boarding facilities, organize extended-day groups.

The efficiency of packing a carry on when traveling goes far beyond the freedom and ease at the airport. I like the challenge of putting a weeks worth of clothing in one bag. It makes me question every single item that I think I need. The forceful edit exposes all sorts of combinations of clothing that I don't always consider when I have access to a full closet at home. The ease in making decisions on what to wear is amplified when I have less to choose from. Plus, once the selected items are finalized, the packing and unpacking is a breeze.
In my previous packing post, with cold weather gear, a few friends asked about toiletries and work out gear, which I did not show in the photo. I always include a pair of sneakers and something to work out in. They take up so little space. And if I'm really crunched for space, I'll wear my sneakers. I keep my toiletries in a separate tote (as my second carry on) with all other flight essentials. The one thing I usually plan on buying at my destination is body sunscreen since size limitations for a carry on wouldn't get me very far.
To make the packing focused , I start with the essentials I'll need for the destination. That includes comfy travel clothes that I can work into my wardrobe for the week. That means a pair of jeans, a tee (I'm loving the linen blends from Madewell earlier this spring), some kind of jacket and closed toe shoes. This season, I am finding my Robert Clergerie lace-up platform indispensable. The raffia color and texture adds something to every look, so this was an easy choice. I actually have this shoe in two other color ways…black and grey suede…it's that comfortable.
In warmer climates, I love to wear dresses, so my next edit is selecting several that would go from daytime to dinners with a simple change up of jewelry and shoes. I'll keep the colors basic…black, white, cream and in this case a faded denim. Most of the fabrics are soft enough to roll and are forgiving to wrinkles when hung out. The high-side-slit embroidered maxi from Sea has been a go-to dress this season. It looks good day or night. I have a frayed denim shift from last year, similar to this Marc Jacobs, and a gauzy tiered white linen similar to the above by Acne that fit the bill. The round up of shoes, both flats and mid-heel, all work with any of the dresses.
Then, I throw in a couple of looks with pants that would look good for dinner with or without the jacket I brought. A pair of black slim cropped, like these from Theory, and MiH white long flares do the trick. Two solid tanks (Theory and Tibi) and one floral similar to the above by Erdem, give me more options than I need. I love my Dries Van Noten lace up sandals from a few seasons back and have taken them with me on many trips. They take up no space in the suitcase, have enough polish for evening and the lace ups accommodate swollen feet from traveling. I would buy a second pair if I could. A Chanel WOC has also served me well for traveling for at least a decade.
The rest of the packing centers around super casual looks…a pair of J. Crew shorts and some tees/tanks. I get so much more use from a dress than shorts that I don't usually take more than one pair.
Beach gear is minimal…usually 1-2 suits and 2 coverups. I keep the colors in my swimsuit pretty classic…a black Melissa Odabash, and a white Heidi Klein. A hat is a must as is a flat folding straw bag. And I always keep a light weight LemLem scarf in my beach bag as a pareo or to keep the sun off my chest. Casual flip flops, like the studded leather from Rebecca Minkoff, are perfect poolside or around town.
With all that, I still have space for a couple of purchases along the way too!
This is super helpful as I've always been a terrible packer and learning to improve. I love reading how others tackle their carry on packing and the editing process.
I find starting with my footwear the easiest thing and work from there. I agree with you about getting so much wear out of dresses that shorts aren't really needed. But I tend to leave my jeans at home since I wear them often enough so avoid them for holidays. Intead I love wide linen sailor and fun cotton print capri pants.
Brilliant!! Thank you. Can you identify the black shoulder bag near the top of the photo?
You may have already mentioned this, but what brand of suitcase do you use?

Protect Our Parks
Preserving Green Spaces for Future Generations
Thank You For Your Immense Support!
June 13, 2019 By // by Protect Our Parks
We have been overwhelmed by all the messages of renewed support, and anger at the decision of the local court.
There has always been a Plan B. From the very beginning we anticipated that because of the people involved this is a case that would need to be decided by the Supreme Court.
The Constitutional issues have always been greater than the petty little ego dreams of Rahm Emanuel and the Obama Foundation.
POP has dared to address the need for more effective control over corrupt government actions, in Chicago without a doubt, but similarly throughout the country. And now the opportunity to do so exists.
Remember, as Genesis in the Bible describes, out of darkness G-d made light.
We know what needs to be done and we will not be stopped by the same monied opposition that has been destroying the integrity of Chicago and Illinois.
With your help justice will prevail.
Judge Blakey Dismisses Our Case
The ruling of Judge Blakey, who was appointed to his position of power by former President Obama, to permit construction of a memorial 235-foot-high Obama Tower in historic Jackson Park has left us stunned. We are frequently reminded that America is one of the few countries in the world that is governed by the RULE OF LAW not men. The Declaration Of Independence declares "that to secure these rights governments are instituted among men."
But even in a Democratic Republic those entrusted with power too often forget whose interests they are sworn to protect. The Illinois Constitution, that Judge Blakey never mentioned, makes it unambiguous that "Public funds, property or credit shall be used only for public purposes" [Art. VIII, Sec. 1(a)] ; "Every person shall find a certain remedy in the laws for all injuries and wrongs…He shall obtain justice by law freely, completely, and promptly."[Art. I, Sec. 12]; "Every person has the right to a healthful environment. Every person may enforce this right against any party, governmental or private…" [Art XI, Sec. 2]
Illinois law further provides that: "Each member of the governing board of any park district before entering upon the duties of his office shall take and subscribe an oath to well and faithfully discharge his duties…" [70 ILCS 1205/4-1) par. 4-1)]
The Chicago Park District Act provides: "Any property or funds held by any of the park districts or corporate authorities superseded by the Chicago Park District upon any special expressed trust shall be held by said Chicago Park District under such trust. [70 ILCS 1505/12]
So what happened to historic Jackson Park? Politics, money, clout, self interest, and breach of fiduciary duty by those individuals who were specifically put in their positions to be guardians of the city's irreplaceable lake shore public parks. The Park District Commissioners violated their oaths of office. Mayor Emanuel, himself the former chief of Staff of former President Obama, contrived a con man's scheme of property flipping of protected Jackson Park public property to flip off the controlling law as well, and he violated his oath of office as well.
And Judge Blakey? He refused to acknowledge the shell game taking place and act to stop it, and he could not resist the hidden influences of all the powerful interests hell bent on stealing Jackson Park to indulge their selfish desires.
With officials from Governors to Aldermen being regularly sent to jail it has been proven over and again that Paddy Bauler was right when he said "Chicago ain't ready for reform." Without the protection of the rule of law what kind of banana republic do we become?
In Washington today we see a Congress considering the impeachment of a President for abuse of power. Around the world we see the people of Hong Hong, and Sudan, going to the streets and risking death and imprisonment to preserve their rights. Protect Our Parks will be filing an appeal for justice to the Seventh Circuit Court of Appeals and to the Supreme Court if necessary. It turns out that Judge Blakey's ruling is not only wrong but it raises issues of such Constitutional importance that it also sets in place the opportunity for a landmark ruling to benefit citizens experiencing similar recurring abuses throughout the United States.
Shakespeare's Hamlet says " The time is out of joint. O cursèd spite, / That ever I was born to set it right!" We say, with your help, we are proud and determined to the ones to prove Paddy Bauler wrong and finally SET THINGS RIGHT.
For anyone interested, we've posted the judge's opinion here.
Final Arguments to Be Heard Tomorrow, June 11…
Tomorrow, June 11, is the hearing for final arguments between Protect Our Parks and the defendants: the City of Chicago and the Chicago Park District.
How easily this lawsuit could evaporate by the defendants simply agreeing to move the private development out of City of Chicago taxpayers' land (Jackson Park or any other park) and into a Chicago neighborhood where there is so much open land and would be so beneficial to the people of that neighborhood.
Stay tuned for the judge's final decision.

The lion population is continually decreasing, and where we once saw lions roam far and wide from Northern Africa to Southwest Asia, they are now far and few beyond. Several reasons are to blame for the decline of this majestic big cat, including habitat loss, prey depletion and the killing of lions in defence of livestock and human life. The conflict between man and lion is believed to be the main threat., and more needs to be done to protect livestock, and therefore the lions themselves.

We finally made Youtube videos. I have been planning to make videos for a while now, and–like every month–they were on my to do list. I wasn't focused on making them to be honest, nor did I know what I was going to talk about with them. Since plotting the transition that Imperfect Concepts will start to take soon, I decided now would be the perfect time to start.
For the rest of the year, my plan is to upload 2 videos a week starting next week. We will schedule them for Mondays and Wednesdays. So, make sure you subscribe to our Youtube channel now so you can be the first to know. I am very excited for the changes I am about to make for Imperfect Concepts. I know I am currently being very cryptic about it, but you will see the changes very soon. The announcement will be made on our YT channel in less than three weeks. Until then, here are the outfits I wore in the video shoot.
I am completely smitten with my Just Taylor dresses. I got them from Cato's, and let me say that I NEVER thought I would shop there. My mom bought me some of their pieces however, and now I'm obsessed. There is another Just Taylor dress you will see this week on the blog that I saw earlier this summer and totally forgot about. I scored it last week for $19 and it was originally $50!


Few outsiders realize that student illness is frequently, and ironically, a by-product of medical training. This unique study by a medical doctor and trained anthropologist debunks popular myths of expertise and authority which surround the medical establishment and asks provoking questions about the acquisition and dissemination of knowledge within the field. In detailing all levels of basic training in a London medical school, the author describes students' 'official' activities (that is, what they need to do to qualify) as well as their 'unofficial' ones (such as their social life in the bar). This insider's expose should prompt a serious reconsideration of abuses in a profession which has a critical influence over untold lives. In particular, it suggests that the structures and discourses of power need to be re-examined in order to provide satisfactory answers to sensitive questions relating to gender and race, the dialogue between doctor and patient and the mental stability of students under severe stress.

HomeAlarmReport » Home Security Tips » What is the Average Alarm Company Response Time?
If you are considering a security system, you are probably wondering if it's worth it. If an alarm event occurs, will the police make it in time? Will they respond at all? The answers vary depending on the alarm you have and the company backing that alarm. We will compare how long it takes different companies to respond, but first, let's talk about some things you need to know to get the most out of your alarm.
The first thing you need to know is that the monitoring company holds the keys. They are trained to respond to the evidence at hand and the type of emergency being reported.
Almost all security systems are capable of providing monitoring for burglaries, fire, and medical needs. The trickiest event is a burglary. In 2004, a study by the Center for Problem-Oriented Policing assessed that between 94% and 98% of alarms are false alarms. That said, technology is significantly better now, and newer systems should have fewer false alarms than legacy systems. However, police officers despise false alarms. They are costly to the department, to taxpayers, and in certain cities might even be costly to you. And it's for that reason that a random alert from your home alarm will not receive the same priority as a homeowner calling the police department directly for help. What you want is a prioritized call. You can do that by providing visual or verbal evidence with or without the help of your monitoring company.
Providing visual evidence is easy. You can install home security cameras that work directly with your home security system, or you can install a self-monitored camera. If your alarm is triggered, you can quickly check your camera for signs of a break-in. If you see something, you can call 9-1-1 to help prioritize the alert. If you are home during the event, this will also prioritize the call. Finally, certain alarm companies use two-way voice technology. With this technology, they can call out to you if you are home or listen in if you are gone. By listening for sounds while you are away, your monitoring company can provide additional evidence to persuade your local police department to respond quickly.

Finally, your response time will be affected by the instructions you provide to your alarm company. By default, they will call you first if a burglary event is detected. It's important to make sure they have updated contact information for you. Also, be sure to provide a backup contact if you can.
When a security company talks about response times, they are talking about the time it takes for your alarm system to communicate with their monitoring company, not the time required to send help to your home. The total time will depend on several factors as it is a multi-touch process as outlined in the infographic above.
