Facilities/Equipment (1)
Inorganic phosphors based on monoclinic Y2WO6 doped with Sm3+ ions were prepared via conventional solid-state reactions at high temperature. A total of six samples were obtained with different Sm3+ concentrations (0–9%). The purity of the as-prepared phases was checked by powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD). The excitation, emission, and time-resolved emission spectra were examined in detail. The experimental decay curves were fitted to the Inokuti–Hirayama model, showing that the Sm3+ ions form clusters at all compositions. Periodic hybrid density functional theory calculations were also carried out on the undoped material and on 144-atom supercells of stoichiometry Y1.9375Sm0.0625WO6 and Y1.875Sm0.125WO6. The different coordination environments at the Y1, Y2 and Y3 sites are analysed in detail. The calculated structure and band gap of Y2WO6 are in good agreement with experiment with one potentially important discrepancy in a Y3-O bond length. The thermodynamically favoured substitution sites for Sm, Y2 and Y3, in the supercell are not those observed under the preparation conditions used here, since the experimental Rietveld analysis suggests occupation of Y1 at all concentrations. Analogous calculations for the Eu-doped system highlight marked differences between Eu and Sm despite their similar ionic sizes. The calculateddensities of states show the position of the 4f levels in the band gap depend on thesites occupied by the dopants and thus we expect marked differences in the luminescencespectra, opening up possibilities for tuning device performance.

This project aims to encourage students and teachers from 16 countries to work together on a topic important to them all:"Traditions". Intercultural education begins with common things and values, valorizing then those singularities of the people. The students and teachers will be stimulated to develop their language skills, their researçch, organizational and social skills as well as their artisitic and creative abilities, by registering legends from popular artisits, translating them into English and then recomposing them into story books, illustrating them, gathering recipes, translating into English and structuring them into cookery books, realizing calendars, presentations, exchanging e-mail or talking in chat rooms with their partners. This collaboration will result in three FINAL TASKS: a calendar, marking the traditional holidays of the partners; a brochure which will describe the holidays; and a cookery book which will contain recipes for traditional dishes of the partners, translated into English too.

Lots of conversations have been happening recently around unconscious bias….how it affects our outlook on life, opportunities, and how our children believe they can / can't do some roles.
Unconscious Bias is really when we think something, without thinking about why we are thinking it. Sounds a bit like a Dr. Seuss description…but click on the link, as it will help explain more. It's quite amazing how much our children, and ourselves, can be affected by this.


Our sixth and final physical piece of armor is the Sword of the Spirit. The Romans had five swords that they had at their disposal. Because of the constraint of space we'll only look at two of them: the gladius and the machaira sword . Paul spoke of the machaira sword in Ephesians 6:17.
The gladius sword was extremely heavy and long, and took two hands to wield it against the enemy. Some even called it a two-handed sword. The Gladius only had one sharp edge, while the remaining edge was dull and blunt. However, this sword was beautiful and ornate.
After the Carthaginians defeated the Romans they abandoned these large swords and adopted swords similar to ones that the Carthaginians used to defeat them. After creating three other swords, 17-19 inches in length, they opted for the sword of verse 17 of Ephesians six.
Wait a minute though; didn't we say earlier that the loin belt was the belt of truth, which is the word of God? This statement is true. Here's the difference; the loin belt represents the logos, which is the truth of the written Word of God. The logos (the written Word), of God is for everybody, whereas the sword of the Spirit in verse 17 is the rhema Word of God. Rhema is a specific Word, for a specific person, for a specific time, for a specific issue.
The machaira hung on a clip attached to the left side of the loin belt. Like the Roman machaira, the rhema word attaches to the written Word of God. In otherword, the rhema originates from the logos.
The word twoedged translates from the Greek word distomos. It is a compound word, where di means two and stomos means mouth. Together, the new word means two-mouths. In contrast to the single edge gladius, the machaira is the two-edged sword of God. What this is saying is, when we act in concert with the logos or the written Word of God, with our rhema word from Him, those become the two-edge (two-mouth) sword spoken of in the Hebrews passage. If we are to live in victory, we can see why it is so important to know and meditate on God's written (logos) Word. I pray for a victorious life through Christ Jesus for you all. Amen.

"El Aleph" es un cuento del escritor argentino Jorge Luis Borges publicado en la revista Sur en 1945 y en el libro homónimo por la editorial Losada de Buenos Aires en 1949.

El manuscrito
Jorge Luis Borges y Estela Canto se conocieron en agosto de 1944, en la casa de Adolfo Bioy Casares y Silvina Ocampo. Tuvieron una relación sentimental durante varios años. En febrero de 1945 Borges le escribió a Canto: "No te he agradecido aún la alegría que tu carta me dio. Esta semana concluiré el borrador de la historia que me gustaría dedicarte: la de un lugar (en la calle Brasil) donde están todos los lugares del mundo.""Dos o tres días después vino a casa una mañana, trayendo un paquete que, según dijo, contenía un objeto que mostraba 'todos los objetos del mundo'. El objeto se llamaba el Aleph. No dijo que el Aleph era la primera letra del alfabeto hebreo. Para él era ese objeto, una puerta abierta a lo imposible. Era un caleidoscopio. Georgie estaba tan contento como un niño con el Aleph." Poco después, Borges le llevó el manuscrito a Canto, que lo mecanografió. Borges le dedicó el cuento.

El texto original quedó en su apartamento. Muchos años después, Canto llamó a Borges para anunciarle que pensaba vender el manuscrito cuando él muriera. Canto narra que su respuesta fue: «Caramba —rió Borges—, ¡si yo fuera un perfecto caballero iría ahora mismo al cuarto de caballeros y, al cabo de unos segundos, se oiría un disparo!». El manuscrito lo vendió de todos modos, cuando él todavía vivía, en mayo de 1985 en Sotheby's. Lo compró el Ministerio de Cultura de España, por 25.760 dólares. Tiene 19 páginas y hoy está en la Biblioteca Nacional de Madrid.

La narración

Los epígrafes
Hay dos epígrafes que, como es habitual en Borges, están escritos en la lengua original, en este caso, el inglés. El primero es de Hamlet (acto II, esc.II): "¡Oh, Dios! podría estar yo encerrado en una cáscara de nuez y me tendría por Rey del espacio infinito". Resulta llamativo que a la cita le falte una línea, "were it not that I have bad dreams" ("si no fuera porque tengo pesadillas"). En Hamlet Guildenstern le responde entonces a Hamlet:  "Sueños que ciertamente constituyen ambición... porque la esencia de lo que ambicionamos no es otra cosa que la sombra de un sueño".

El otro epígrafe es un fragmento de la parte IV, "De las tinieblas, de la vana filosofía y de las tradiciones fabulosas", de El Leviathán de Thomas Hobbes: "ellos nos enseñarán, sin embargo, que la eternidad es la paralización del tiempo, el nunc stans (un estar ahora)  de la Escuelas, cosa que ni ellos ni nadie comprenden, como tampoco el hic stans (un estar aquí), esto es, la infinita magnitud de lugar".

 Argumento
Borges es relator y protagonista del cuento. A la muerte de su amada, Beatriz Viterbo, se percata que "el incesante y vasto universo" se alejaba de la muerta, pero decide: "cambiará el Universo pero yo no, pensé con melancólica vanidad; alguna vez, lo sé, mi vana devoción la había exasperado; muerta, yo podría consagrarme a su memoria, sin esperanza, pero también sin humillación". Todos los 30 de abril, cumpleaños de Beatriz, Borges visita la casa de la calle Garay donde ella vivía y aún lo hacen su padre y su primo-hermano, Carlos Argentino Daneri.

Aprovecha esas ocasiones para observar las múltiples fotos de Beatriz en la sala de espera, sin sentirse obligado a justificar su presencia con módicas ofrendas de libros que ella nunca leyó. Carlos Argentino Daneri es descripto como "rosado, considerable, canoso, de rasgos finos. Ejerce no se qué cargo subalterno en una Biblioteca ilegible de los arrabales del Sur; es autoritario, pero también es ineficaz...su actividad mental es continua, apasionada, versátil y del todo insignificante.  "Abunda en inservibles analogías y ociosos escrúpulos".

En sus encuentros con Daneri, escucha sus monólogos, cuya exposición es vasta y pomposa, así como ineptas sus ideas. Daneri ha escrito también un poema, que es una descripción del planeta y merece la aprobación y el comentario profuso de su autor. Borges al respecto: "Comprendí que el trabajo del poeta no estaba en la poesía; estaba en la invención de razones para que la poesía fuera interminable"

Meses después, Daneri le avisa acongojado que la casa de la calle Garay va a ser demolida. Si para Borges esa vivienda "aludía infinitamente a Beatriz", para Carlos Argentino es imprescindible para terminar el poema, ya que en un ángulo del sótano, habría un Aleph. "Aclaró que un Aleph es uno de los puntos del espacio que contiene todos los puntos." Daneri narra que, luego de haberse caído en su niñez en el sótano "Al abrir los ojos vi el Aleph: el lugar donde están, sin confundirse, todos los lugares del orbe, visto desde todos los ángulos." Borges llega presuroso a la casa, no sin dejar de suponer que debe ser una locura de Carlos: "La locura de Carlos Argentino me colmó de maligna felicidad; íntimamente siempre nos habíamos detestado".

Borges va al sótano y se atiene con escepticismo y temor a las instrucciones dadas por Daneri. Siente un malestar confuso, pero al abrir los ojos ve el Aleph. "Arribo, ahora, al inefable centro de mi relato... ¿Cómo transmitir a los otros el infinito Aleph ? Los místicos en análogo trance prodigan los emblemas: para significar la divinidad un persa habla de un pájaro que de algún modo es todos los pájaros." "En ese instante gigantesco, he visto millones de actos deleitables o atroces; ninguno me asombró como el hecho de que todos ocuparan el mismo punto, sin superposición y sin transparencia. Lo que vieron mis ojos fue simultáneo lo que transcribiré,  sucesivo, porque el lenguaje lo es". Borges describe al Aleph  como una "pequeña esfera tornasolada", de unos dos o tres centímetros e intolerable fulgor. "Cada cosa era infinitas cosas,  porque yo claramente la veía desde todos los puntos del universo." Luego enumera en una larga frase de 430 palabras lo que ve.

Interrogado por Daneri, Borges no niega haber visto el Aleph, pero su respuesta es ambigua y le resta importancia a lo acontecido. Denari puede suponer que lo ha visto o no. Sea como fuere, le hace sentir que no tiene el alcance que él le ha dado. Disminuir al Aleph, o negarlo, es la venganza de Borges.

La postdata narra los éxitos literarios de Denari y los fracasos de Borges, hace observaciones sobre diversos Aleph y especula sobre la posible falsedad del objeto visto en la calle Garay.

 Interpretación

 El Aleph
La primera referencia al Aleph en la obra de Borges aparece en "Inquisiciones", en un comentario a Ramón Gómez de la Serna: "¿Qué signo puede recoger en su abreviatura el sentido de la tarea de Ramón? Yo pondría sobre ella el signo Alef, que en la matemática nueva es el señalador del infinito guarismo que abarca los demás o la aristada rosa de los vientos que infatigablemente urge sus dardos a toda lejanía." El Aleph representará una inspiración permanente para lograr una unidad del ser en la que el yo podría realizarse e integrarse en la realidad objetiva del mundo. Borges calificó a Norah Lange como "innumerable", con el sentido de un Aleph unificador que abarcaría a los otros números. De forma semejante lo introduce en El Aleph: "para la Mengenlehre, es el símbolo de los números transfinitos, en los que el todo no es mayor que alguna de las partes."

En la postdata del cuento hay una referencia a la cábala: "Para la Cábala, esa letra significa el En Soph, la ilimitada y pura divinidad; también se dijo que tiene la forma de un hombre que señala el cielo y la tierra, para indicar que el mundo inferior es el espejo y es el mapa del superior"

Para Estela Canto "El Aleph" es el relato de una experiencia mística. "En ese sótano de la calle Brasil, el autor trasciende la carne. Y esto significa no ser ya presa de los sentidos, significa ver todas las cosas como debe verlas Dios. Y el éxtasis ha de parecernos al estallido del orgasmo, intenso y compartido,  ese instante en que dos seres dejan de ser dos para ser uno."

El cuento contiene numerosas referencias a la Divina Comedia. Por ejemplo, el nombre "Daneri" es una combinación de Dante Alighieri. Además, el Aleph está en el escalón 19 de las escaleras del sótano. En sus tres partes, la divina comedia contiene descripciones de un aleph (por ejemplo, un águila compuesta de todas las águilas) en el canto 19.

Los nombres "Carlos Argentino Daneri" y "Beatriz Elena" contienen las primeras cinco letras del alfabeto (cuya forma hebrea, el aleph-bet, comienza con la letra "aleph"). Mientras tanto, los señores "Zunino" y "Zungri", son los responsables del derribo de la casa de Daneri y con ello del fin del Aleph.

 Personajes
Ha habido múltiples especulaciones sobre la conexión entre las figuras del cuento y la biografía de Borges, así como su visión de la literatura y su filosofía. He aquí algunos lazos posibles.

El personaje de Beatriz Viterbo habría sido inspirado por Norah Lange, con quién Borges tuvo una relación sentimental que terminó en 1929, fecha que coincide en el cuento con la muerte de Beatriz.

Estela Canto reprodujo en Borges a contraluz una carta que Borges le había enviado, estableciendo una conexión entre ella y un pasaje del cuento, ello la llevó a afirmar que "Beatriz soy yo"

De acuerdo a Emir Rodríguez Monegal, Beatriz Viterbo sería una referencia a Beatrice Portinari, la amada de Dante Alighieri. Borges negó la interpretación de Monegal -Beatriz: Beatrice; Daneri: Dante-, pero en los Nueve ensayos dantescos (1982) que recopiló Marcos Ricardo Barnatán el vínculo es transparente.

Según una nota crítica de la edición de la obra de Borges (Emecé 2014), la alusión tendría un tono paródico, ya que esta Beatriz no parece tan virginal como la de La divina comedia.

Su relación con Beatriz está caracterizada por una irónica melancolía: "muerta yo podía consagrarme a su memoria, sin esperanza, pero también sin humillación...No estaría obligado, como otras veces, a justificar mi presencia con módicas ofrendas de libros: libros cuyas páginas, finalmente, aprendí a cortar, para no comprobar, meses después, que estaban intactos...había en su andar (si el oxímoron es tolerable) una como graciosa torpeza, un principio de éxtasis...una niña de una clarividencia casi implacable, pero había en ella negligencias, distracciones, desdenes, verdaderas crueldades, que tal vez reclamaban una explicación patológica...vi en un cajón del escritorio (y la letra me hizo temblar) cartas obscenas, increíbles, precisas, que Beatriz había dirigido a Carlos Argentino...vi la reliquia atroz de lo que deliciosamente había sido Beatriz Viterbo. Borges confesó en una entrevista con Osvaldo Ferrari: "Con cierta tristeza descubro que toda la vida me la pasé pensando en una y otra mujer. Creí ver países, ciudades, pero siempre hubo una mujer para hacer de pantalla entre los objetos y yo. Desde esa perspectiva, Beatriz Viterbo podría ser el resumen de todas las relaciones sentimentales de Borges, incluido el elemento de una erótica inalcanzable. Dice Borges en el poema El Amenazado: "Estar contigo o no estar contigo es la medida de mi tiempo.../ El nombre de una mujer me delata./  Me duele una mujer en todo el cuerpo."

Carlos Argentino Daneri podría referir a Leopoldo Lugones y a sus obras Las odas seculares o el Romancero. Dice Borges en El tamaño de mi esperanza sobre Lugones: "Así lo presintieron los clásicos, y si alguna vez rimaron baúl con azul o calostro y rostro, fue en composiciones en broma, donde esas rimas irrisorias caen bien. Lugones lo hace en serio. A ver, amigos, ¿qué les parece esta preciosura? Ilusión que las alas tiende / En un frágil moño de tul / Y al corazón sensible prende /  Su insidioso alfiler azul Esta cuarteta es la última carta de la baraja y es pésima, no solamente por los ripios que sobrelleva, sino por su miseria espiritual, por lo insignificativo de su alma. Esta cuarteta indecidora, pavota y frívola es resumen del Romancero." La obra de Danieri es calificada de "pedantesco fárrago" ya que "había elaborado un poema que parecía dilatar hasta lo infinito las posibilidades de la cacofonía y del caos."

Borges está presente no solo porque escribe en primera persona, sino por ciertos datos que son autobiográficos. Daneri trabaja de subalterno en una biblioteca de los arrabales del Sur, allí lo hacía Borges en el momento de escribir el cuento. Entre 1938 y 1946 Daneri se presenta al Premio Nacional de Literatura, ganando 1943. Borges se había presentado en la realidad en 1944, pero sin éxito. Narra en el Aleph "mi obra Los naipes del tahúr no logró un solo voto". Tampoco es difícil descubrirlo en la observación: "Daneri aprovechaba, hasta hace muy poco, las noches y las fiestas para no salir de su casa".

 Humor y escepticismo
Estela Castro señaló el gran placer que le había significado a Borges el imaginar los poemas y digresiones de Daneri: "Éste se proponía versificar toda la redondez del planeta; en 1941 ya había despachado unas hectáreas del estado de Queensland, más de un kilómetro del curso del Ob, un gasómetro al norte de Veracruz, las principales casas de comercio de la parroquia de la Concepción, la quinta de Mariana Cambaceres de Alvear en la calle Once de Septiembre, en Belgrano, y un establecimiento de baños turcos no lejos del acreditado acuario de Brighton." Ese elemento burlesco es frecuente en el cuento, donde el éxtasis no está lejos de la vulgaridad. Luego de experimentar "el inconcebible universo" y "sentir infinita veneración" Borges se ve confrontado con la voz "aborrecida y jovial" de Daneri lo cual lo lleva a vengarse restándole importancia a la experiencia. De la misma manera se produce un proceso de erosión del Aleph, sea por la reflexión, el olvido, o los múltiples Alephs posibles, que lleva a su relativización.

 Precursores
En el relato de H. G. Wells "The Crystal Egg" se encuentra una posible inspiración de "El Aleph". La historia sigue a un comerciante llamado Mr. Cave que encuentra un extraño huevo de cristal que sirve como ventana al planeta Marte. En un epílogo de 1949, Borges anota que en «El Aleph'' creyó ver algún influjo del cuento.

Windows are the most effective ventilators that give continuous supply of fresh air. The temperature of buildings can be maintained and the air circulation required can be attained with the help of windows. They also connect the outer world to people inside. Windows are usually designed with glass. The use of glass in windows makes it necessary to do window cleaning regularly. A good professional service for this is the window cleaning Nashville service.
Glass used can easily become dirty.
Glass contains minute pores which collect dust over time. This affects the transparency of the glass, which on the long run definitely affects the look of the building. Other than dust there are other factors that affect glass with long time use, like acid rain, salt settlement, accidental spill of paints, oxidization etc.
Houses with clean windows are generally more attractive than ones with dirty windows. When the windows are clean, it psychologically makes the visitors think that the owner of the house likes to keep her/his house clean which in turn gives the owner a reputation of having good attitude. On the other hand if they are dirty, that psychologically gives people the idea that the person is of a careless attitude. If the environment of a house is clean it gives people a pleasant feeling to spend quality time there.
Dirty windows will affect the temperature of the house. The small dust particles settled on the glass pores affect the temperature of the house drastically, that is, more amount of ultra violet rays are reflected that results in ineffective warming up of the house during cold season. There are many problems that arise because of this for instance, increase of heating expenses etc.
The expenses made for short term problems is minimal when compared to the long term ones. By maintaining the windows they can be protected and can be used for a longer duration without replacements. If glass is not properly maintained then micro cracks may develop which eventually destroy the whole window, spots begin to appear which in turn begin to reduce the transparency of the glass.
Clean windows always give us a satisfied feeling and we see the world at its original color looking through them. It simply gives us confidence when other people visit our homes. After knowing these things one may wonder, "How often should I clean my window?" the answer depends upon the pollution present in the area of residence. If you happen to live in a highly polluted area then cleaning once every week will do.
Among the many companies we find online, is a company named 'cleaning servicetn' that provides amazing cleaning services. They provide good service in Nashville at the moment. They have professional workers whose work makes the window glasses spot free. They have right tools and products that make the windows squeaky clean. One of the things that attracts clients to them is that they use top quality microfiber towels and eco- friendly cleaning products, which are natural and non-hazardous, so they don't affect people who are allergic to harsh chemicals.

So you finally made it, little bald baby. Saturday night. 11:00. You tried once before, changed your mind, then three days later decided to brave it. You should have come through the first try and you could have been twins with your double cousin Pam. Then she wouldn't have been able to hold her superiority over you all those years. Oh well, now you can claim to be younger, which is just as sweet.
The 26-mile trip over the bumpy rural Montana roads must have helped ease your way. And your Dad made that trip every evening for five days to come and see you and your Mom, while Wendell stayed at the farm with Grandma Mullet.
Grandma and Grandpa Kauffman would come up after church on Sunday to see you – the 23rd grandchild. They would also visit Pam and her mother, your Aunt Gladys. There was probably a whole stream of relatives coming to visit both of you. Uncle Morris and Uncle Cliff would make jokes about your bald head. Aunt Jesse would have come in from the ranch and Aunt Jerry would come up. And Aunt Cele. And Aunt Lucille.
Thursday you made the trip back out to the farm. How did it feel to drive onto the yard and smell the scorched brooder coop that burned the night you were born, the kerosene heater tipping over and starting it all ablaze? Is that a way to announce your arrival into the world?
Wendell would have come running out on the porch as the car drove up, a two-year old eager to see what a little sister looked like. You would be carried in up the steps to the porch, then in through the screen door to the separator room, then into the kitchen. The bassinet was set up in the bedroom with stacks of carefully folded cloth diapers, the receiving blankets, the knitted booties and caps.
Then Sunday you would go to church as you would for every Sunday for the next 17 years, this time to Red Top. Your Mom would try in vain to tie a ribbon to the few strands of hair on your head. And after church, you would be invited to someone's house for dinner – probably Uncle Cliff and Aunt Ann's, your first introduction to a few of your many cousins; Rolly, Donna, Judy and Gloria.
Life was good in the Red Top valley. Your Mom would take you to watch your Dad play softball at the field shared by the church, the school and the community. You would go along on the hunting trips – deer and antelope. You would go to the church picnics in Evan's Grove. And every Sunday you would go to church and be bathed in the sound of voices lifting their acapella praise to the Lord – delivering their prayers and their gratitude directly to heaven's door.

Rate Aggregation
According to the National Center for Health Statistics, during the years of 2013-2016, 48.4% of patients (both male and female) were prescribed at least one prescription medication with 12.6% taking 5 or more medications. Additionally, 89.8% of patients (both male and female) aged 65 years and older were prescribed at least one medication with 40.9% taking 5 or more medications (2018). In this context, maintaining an accurate and complete medication list has proven to be a challenging documentation endeavor for various health care provider settings. While most of outpatient encounters (two-thirds) result in providers prescribing at least one medication, hospitals have been the focus of medication safety efforts (Stock, Scott, & Gurtel, 2009). Nassaralla, Naessens, Chaudhry, Hansen, and Scheitel (2007) caution that this is at odds with the current trend, where patients with chronic illnesses are increasingly being treated in the outpatient setting and require careful monitoring of multiple medications. Additionally, Nassaralla et al. (2007) reveal that it is in fact in outpatient settings where more fatal adverse drug events (ADE) occur when these are compared to those occurring in hospitals (1 of 131 outpatient deaths compared to 1 in 854 inpatient deaths). In the outpatient setting, ADEs occur 25% of the time and over one-third of these are considered preventable (Tache, Sonnichsen, & Ashcroft, 2011). Particularly vulnerable are patients over 65 years, with evidence suggesting that the rate of ADEs per 10,000 person per year increases with age; 25-44 years old at 1.3; 45-64 at 2.2, and 65 + at 3.8 (Sarkar, López, & Maselli, 2011). Other vulnerable groups include individuals who are chronically ill or disabled (Nabhanizadeh, Oppewal, Boot, & Maes, 2019). These population groups are more likely to experience ADEs and subsequent hospitalization.
A multiplicity of providers and inadequate care coordination among them has been identified as barriers to collecting complete and reliable medication records. A study conducted by Poornima et al. (2015) indicates that reconciliation and documentation continue to be poorly executed with discrepancies occurring in 92% of patients (74 of 80 patients) of medication lists among admittance to the emergency room. Of 80 patients included in the study, the home medications were reordered for 65% of patients on their admission and of the 65% the majority (29%) had a change in their dosing interval, while 23% had a change in their route of administration, and 13% had a change in dose. A total of 361 medication discrepancies, or the difference between the medications patients were taking before admission and those listed in their admission orders, were identified in at least 74 patients. The study found that "Through an appropriate reconciliation programme, around 80% of errors relating to medication and the potential harm caused by these errors could be reduced" (Poornima et al., 2015, p. 243). Presley et al. (2020) also recognized specific barriers to sufficient medication documentation and reconciliation in rural and resource-limited care settings.
Documentation of current medications in the medical record facilitates the process of medication review and reconciliation by the provider, which is necessary for reducing ADEs and promoting medication safety. The need for provider to provider coordination regarding medication records, and the existing gap in implementation, is highlighted in the American Medical Association's Physician's Role in Medication Reconciliation, which states that "critical patient information, including medical and medication histories, current medications the patient is receiving and taking, and sources of medications, is essential to the delivery of safe medical care. However, interruptions in the continuity of care and information gaps in patient health records are common and significantly affect patient outcomes" (2007, p. 7). This is because clinical decisions based on information that is incomplete and/or inaccurate are likely to lead to medication error and ADEs. Weeks, Corbette, and Stream (2010) noted similar barriers and identified the utilization of health information technology as an opportunity for facilitating the creation of universal medication lists. One 2015 meta-analysis showed an association between EHR documentation with an overall RR of 0.46 (95% CI = 0.38 to 0.55; P < 0.001) and ADEs with an overall RR of 0.66 (95% CI = 0.44 to 0.99; P = 0.045). This meta-analysis provides evidence that the use of the EHR can improve the quality of healthcare delivered to patients by reducing medication errors and ADEs (Campanella et al., 2016).
Clinical Recommendation Statement
The Joint Commission's 2020 Ambulatory Health Care National Patient Safety Goals guide providers to maintain and communicate accurate patient medication information. Specifically, the section "Use Medicines Safely NPSG.03.06.01" states the following: "Record and pass along correct information about a patient's medicines. Find out what medicines the patient is taking. Compare those medicines to new medicines given to the patient. Give the patient written information about the medicines they need to take. Tell the patient it is important to bring their up-to-date list of medicines every time they visit a doctor."
The National Quality Forum's Safe Practices for Better Healthcare (2010), states the following: "the healthcare organization must develop, reconcile, and communicate an accurate patient medication list throughout the continuum of care".

Hi, I'm MJ! This is a blog about Great Literature in the Western tradition. I have read the classics since youth, pursued advanced degrees in English, taught literature in university classrooms for seventeen years, and talked about it with many other literature lovers. Through all, my enthusiasm for "the Greats" has only continued to grow.
I am here to share that enthusiasm with you, drawing on my conversations about literature with people ranging from beginning university students to expert readers. I will also share some tips for getting more out of what you read, and some of my own thoughts about some of my favorite classics. On occasion, Guest Writers may appear as well, to share their ideas about literature with you.

10 movies you shouldn't miss on Yomvi
The television services Internet have great advantages. And it is that in addition to being able to enjoy exclusive channels and content, they offer us the opportunity to watch a huge number of interesting movies and series without having to leave home, on TV or from a tablet or mobile, in order to take them all with us parts. This is Yomvi , a service offered by MOVISTAR + . If you register, you will be able to access a good number of movies that will come in handy for a more entertaining August. Here are 10 movies that you should not miss for the world . You fancy a movie, right?
1. Suffragettes
If you like films of fight and feminism, you cannot miss Suffragettes (Suffragette, 2015) , directed by Sarah Gavron . The film represents the founding of the British movement in favor of women's suffrage, which took place in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. These heroines played by Carey Mulligan, Helena Bonham Carter, Ben Whishaw and Meryl Streep shot some scenes of the film in the Parliament of the United Kingdom for the first time in history. Suffragettes offers a moving overview of the struggle for women's rights, both in the world of work, and with regard to education or the rights over their children.
2. Inside Out
The setback (Inside Out) is one of the last films he has made known the factory Pixar with the distribution of Walt Disney Pictures . It is a special film because, despite being a classic 3D animation work , its plot revolves around emotions. In it, a girl named Riley Anderso n will embark on a journey through Joy, Sadness, Fear, Fury and Disgust . It will be great for you to spend an interesting afternoon at home with the children, although if you don't have one, you will also love it.
3. Everest
It is a harrowing film, but exciting and very well developed by Baltasar Kormákur . It tells of the tragedy that occurred on Mount Everest on May 10, 1996 , in which eight climbers were killed in a storm at the top of the mountain. Stars are Jason Clarke, Josh Brolin, John Hwkes, Robin Wright, Michael Kelly, Keira Knightley, Emily Watson, Sam Worthington and Jake Gylenhaal . If you like adventure movies and well-crafted dramas, here's a gold ribbon.
4. The theory of everything
Based on the memoirs of Jane Hawking , first wife of the theoretical physicist Stephen Hawking , The Theory of Everything is a British film that reviews the lives of both since they met, through the diagnosis and the disease that Hawking suffers . Awarded at various festivals, the film narrates in a very emotional way the life journey of the Hawkings. Among its protagonists are Charlie Cox, Emily Watson, Simon McBurney and David Thewlis , under the direction of James Marsh, Eddie Redmayne and Felicity Jones . You will love it if you are curious about science and in general, about the human race.
5. Whiplash
And let's go for another curious story. In this case, that of Andrew Neiman , a young jazz drummer who attends one of the best music schools in New York . In the course of his training he will be under the tutelage of Terrence Fletcher , a jazz player who inspires real dread. His objective will be at all times to get the maximum potential of the student and for this, the latter will have to suffer. And a lot. In Whiplash you will suffer a lot, but you will also get excited as you have rarely done. One hundred percent recommended.
6. Trash. Thieves of hope.
And we are going for the social complaint. In Trash. Thieves of hope , two children from the favelas of Rio de Janeiro find a wallet in a landfill. The local police will look for them to offer them a generous reward and then they will understand that this discovery will have changed their lives. The film takes you into an extraordinary adventure in which Rafael and Gardo will try to discover the secret that that wallet hides and keep it. It is dramatic and it is skillful. We hope you like.
7. Ernest & Célestine
If we asked you to imagine a charming movie, you would probably imagine something like Ernest & Célestine . Directed by Stéphane Aubier, Vincent Patar and Benjamin Renner , this is an animated film in which a world of bears is represented. Ernest , a curmudgeon bear but with a very good heart, welcomes little Célestine , an orphan rat who has escaped from her underworld , into his home . Together they will learn to know each other and will forge a friendship that will defy all established conventions. It's great to watch with kids, but we wouldn't give it up despite being adults.
8. Fargo
Knowing that Fargo is a Coen Brothers film , there is probably no need to add anything else. But we will. Released in 1996 , Fargo is one of the most recognized and awarded films in cinemas, so if you haven't seen it yet, you can't miss it. The film stars Frances McDormand , a Minnesota police chief investigating the murders that take place after a debt-ridden car salesman hired two criminals to kidnap his own wife for her ransom. the hand of his father-in-law.
9. Belle and Sébastian
And we are ending with one of those movies that emotionally we would fit into the category of "endearing." Belle and Sébastian is a film directed by Nicolas Vanier , which is nothing more than an adaptation of the famous novel by Cécile Aubry . Sébastian is a lonely boy who lives in the Alps. There he meets a wild dog whom he calls Belle. This bucolic life will be interrupted by the arrival of the Germans, in the middle of the Second World War. Sébastian will then leave, in search of his mother.
10. The girls on the sixth floor
We have reserved a very special movie for number ten. This is The Girls on the Sixth Floor , a French film directed by Philippe Le Guay that tells the story of a group of Spanish emigrants in the 60s who worked as maids in different wealthy houses. The film has the participation of Spanish actresses such as Natalia Verbeke, Carmen Maura or Lola Dueñas . A curious and interesting comedy that you will like if you are interested in the subject.
Have you seen any of these movies? Do you want to make us a personal recommendation? You are invited to participate in the comments below.

Once again Sheep South West proved a lively event blessed by good weather & excellent attendance. This produced a steady flow of visitors to our stand, the centrepiece of which was a display of a Llanwenog ram & a Llanwenog ewe with Beltex cross twins kindly loaned by the Blackhall Flock (No.380). Our "Guess the Combined Weight of the Lambs" competition generated much interest & discussion with 32 entries.
The winners were Victor Dennis & Son of Wickington Farm, South Tawton, Okehampton, EX20 2LY who guessed the correct weight of 62kg. Our thanks must go to Jill Bennett, Margaret Brain who brought her spinning wheel & Maurice Greenslade for being present on the stand. It was also good to see David Pittendreigh who was over from Wales for the day & visited the stand.

When disaster strikes, people with MS face unique challenges. Here's how to find help.
Lisa Heitkemper, who uses a power wheelchair, took precautions and evacuated with her family as soon as they learned that a fire was close to home. Photo courtesy of Lisa Heitkemper
In the early morning of Oct. 8, 2017, Lisa Heitkemper's husband woke her up with a message anyone would dread: "Our hill is on fire!"
Although the fire was large and dramatic, it was still a couple of miles west of their house in Napa County. Normally, the Heitkempers would wait to see if the fire moved closer before leaving their home. But because Heitkemper, who was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis in 2012, uses a power wheelchair, they decided to evacuate immediately.
"Had I not had MS, if I had been able to run and jump in the car at a moment's notice, we probably would have stayed and watched the fire from home," she says.
Heitkemper only had enough time to wake her 20-year-old son and grab the family's 13-year-old labradoodle. "I didn't have my medication or our important papers," she says.
"I didn't even get a chance to get some clothes on. As I was slowly trying to get changed, my husband said, 'Are you kidding me? We need to go now!' So I just brought some clothes and shoes with me, and got in the car in my nightgown." She remembers looking at their wedding album up high on a shelf where she couldn't reach it and realized she had to let it go.
The Heitkempers drove to a vantage point where they could overlook the hills surrounding their house. "It was basically a fire horseshoe—we could see three different wildfires to the east, west and north," Heitkemper says. She didn't know it at the time, but they were in the midst of the 2017 Northern California firestorm—the most destructive wildfire in the history of the state.
After a couple of hours watching the fire and wind progress, the Heitkempers decided they would be safe if they returned home. Although they lost power and cellphone service for more than three days and at one point were under an evacuation advisory, they and their property made it through the wildfires unscathed.
But the fire taught Heitkemper a lesson. "You talk about what to do in an emergency, but once it's happening, you're like a deer in the headlights," she says. She realized that because she lives with MS and uses a wheelchair to get around, natural emergencies pose added challenges. Whether it's a fire, earthquake, tornado, flood, hurricane or blizzard, extreme weather events require extra preparedness for people with MS.
Here's what the Heitkempers and others with MS who lived through last summer's wildfires and hurricanes learned, along with tips from experts about how to deal with natural emergencies before, during and after they happen.
Ready.gov is a good resource for disaster preparedness plans. But if you have MS, you'll need to add other items to the emergency checklist this website recommends.
Experts recommend signing up for alerts from your local office of emergency management. Most counties have one—Google your county name and "emergency management," or find a statewide organization at fema.gov. They advise contacting your local police and fire departments and ambulance service and telling them ahead of time you have a disability. You may also want to inquire about a registry in your locality for people who may need extra help evacuating in an emergency. The registry will provide vital information for local emergency planners and responders about any special needs you may have.
"It gives you peace of mind," Debbie Fagan says. "You can give them your phone number, address, contact information for relatives and where you would be in your home if they need to come in. All of that is added to the database that comes up if you call 911."
The Fagans also recommend that you check with your local electricity provider to see if it maintains a registry of people with health conditions that require electricity-related aids like air conditioning or refrigeration for medications. People on this registry can get status updates and priority for power restoration during an emergency. Michael Fagan, who was diagnosed with MS in 1993 and uses a wheelchair, and his wife, Debbie, have weathered three major hurricanes since they moved to the Houston/Galveston, Texas, area—Rita, Ike and last summer's Harvey. The Fagans invite guest speakers from emergency-management organizations to their area MS support group to provide programs on emergency and hurricane preparedness.
Inside your go-bag
A medical alert tag or bracelet
A list of all your prescription drugs, including the dosage, prescription number and pharmacy name, address and phone number
Portable radio
Important documents like birth and marriage certificates, insurance inventories, deeds, IDs, stocks and bonds, and bank information
Shelter. Since 2010, the Red Cross and Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) have committed to providing general-population evacuation shelters that also have accommodations for people with disabilities. The reason, says Mary Casey-Lockyer, Red Cross senior associate for disaster health services, is to keep people with disabilities and their families or caregivers together. You can find the closest shelters at DisasterAssistance.gov. You can also find a list of hotels that participate in FEMA's Transitional Sheltering Assistance program at femaevachotels.com. FEMA may pick up the tab for your stay at these hotels, but availability is limited. Call in advance, especially if you need an accessible room, since hotels usually only have a few of these rooms.
But some states, including Florida, have statutes mandating that people who want to use special-needs shelters must register with their local facility first.
Susan Struder, who was diagnosed with MS in 1992 and uses a scooter, registered at her Hudson, Florida, shelter even though she didn't intend to evacuate her sturdy condo building when Hurricane Irma hit her hometown last September. But her friend, who also has MS and was alone during the storm, wanted company. The shelter, which was full at that point, directed Struder and her friend to a backup shelter at an elementary school, which was able to not only accommodate Struder's scooter, but also her friend's two cats. The lesson? Don't panic if you can't get into a shelter specifically geared toward people with disabilities.
Support system. The Red Cross suggests you identify a minimum of three people who can assist you during an emergency, or who can simply check to make sure you're OK. You should also include someone outside of your immediate area who you can stay with or who can relay information to your family and friends.
And don't forget your pets. The Fagans say many shelters during Hurricane Harvey were pet friendly. But it's wise to make a plan for your pets' care just in case. The Humane Society of the United States and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention offer tips for caring for animals during an emergency, along with a list of pet-friendly hotel websites.
If an emergency happens while you're at work, the bad news is that your employer is not required to have an evacuation plan. However, the Job Accommodation Network (JAN) notes that employers covered under the Americans with Disabilities Act that do have evacuation plans must include people with disabilities in those plans. If your employer hasn't established evacuation procedures, you can consult materials like JAN's emergency evacuation checklist.
Documents. Any basic emergency preparedness plan calls for taking important documents like birth and marriage certificates, insurance inventories, deeds, IDs, stocks and bonds, and bank information with you.
It's also important to include your medical records, health insurance cards, contact information for your healthcare providers, names and model numbers of your medical devices, and a list of all your prescription drugs—including the dosage, prescription number and pharmacy name, address and phone number. Heitkemper recommends making an extra copy of this list and giving it to a member of your support network. And make sure to wear a medical alert tag or bracelet.
Equipment and medications. If you use a motorized wheelchair or scooter, consider having a lightweight foldable manual chair as backup. Ready.gov suggests having an extra battery for your wheelchair. You should also include a patch kit or a flat-tire sealant, along with an extra inner tube, in your emergency bag. And make sure to teach your support network how to operate your wheelchair or other equipment.
If you're in an area that's frequently in danger of power outages, consider buying a gas- or battery-powered generator. And it's a good idea to store a second set of mobility devices like canes or walkers at your workplace or a friend's house in case you need to evacuate without them.
Most experts also recommend packing at least a week's worth of medications in your bag.
Get out safely, and stay safe
Along with checking weather reports and information from local emergency preparedness offices, also keep the following in mind during an emergency.
Transportation. The Red Cross doesn't offer emergency transportation, but local law enforcement and emergency management services do. These services will usually transfer you to shelters or a hospital, if needed. If you want to go elsewhere, you'll need to make private transportation plans.
National MS Society resources
Visit Emergencies & Disasters for an extensive disaster preparedness plan and emergency resource list. Although the Society is not a crisis agency, MS Navigators are available before, during and after emergencies to help you connect with disaster-related resources and services. Angela Taylor, one of the managers of the Society's MS Navigator Services Delivery, says MS Navigators can help you, your family or your caregivers find solutions for a wide variety of needs.
Call 1-800-344-4867 or visit Ask an MS Navigator.
Basic needs. Casey-Lockyer says Red Cross and FEMA shelters provide food, toiletries and emergency needs like incontinence supplies. They also have medical equipment like wheelchairs, walkers and canes, and can work with pharmacies and public health facilities to replace medications you were unable to bring with you. "There could be a gap of two to three days, though, depending on the state of the infrastructure," Casey-Lockyer says. Some pharmaceutical companies will replace MS medications that have been lost or destroyed in a disaster.
There will usually be a power source for recharging a wheelchair battery, but "we can't guarantee air conditioning," Casey-Lockyer says. If heat is an issue, pack a cooling vest in your go-bag. Struder recommends bringing a pillow and inflatable air mattress, as you may be sleeping on the floor. Red Cross shelters also offer physical and mental health services, and can transport you to a hospital if you need advanced medical care.
After the disaster
Even if you aren't hurt or your home isn't damaged during a natural emergency, there can still be a psychological and financial toll. Fortunately, there are a variety of resources available at no charge.
General assistance. Dialing 211, or visiting 211search.org, connects you with your local United Way, churches and community organizations that offer financial assistance, counseling and other forms of help.
The Disaster Assistance Improvement Program (DAIP) is designed to make applying for federal funds easier. DAIP administers DisasterAssistance.gov, where you can find more than 70 forms of assistance from 17 federal agencies, including emergency housing and food.
The federal government's multilingual Disaster Distress Helpline provides counseling and emotional support 24 hours a day. Call 1-800-985-5990 or text TalkWithUs to 66746. Casey-Lockyer says the Salvation Army, Red Cross or other federal agencies and partners operate multiagency resource centers. "They're like a one-stop shop" for financial, medical and mental health assistance, she says. For instance, after hurricanes Harvey and Irma, Medicare and Medicaid waived the usual three- to five-year waiting period for people who needed new wheelchairs. You can find resource centers in your area at redcross.org.
Salvation Army Disaster Relief Services provides meals, hygiene kits, social services, and emotional and spiritual care to disaster survivors. Check disaster.salvationarmyusa.org to see what's offered in your area.
There's no getting around the fact that natural emergencies are traumatic—especially if you have MS. But preplanning can help lessen the impact."I have terrible spasticity, and the stress during last summer's fires caused my legs to go straight out and stiff as boards," Heitkemper says. "But I learned that if you're organized, prepared and have an emergency plan, that really helps minimize the stress."

Ole Miss Rebels @ Texas Longhorns 2013
When You Wrote A Piece Like That: Legacy and Inevitability
Revisiting resignation almost one year later.
By Scipio Tex Sep 15, 2013, 4:08am CDT
Share All sharing options for: When You Wrote A Piece Like That: Legacy and Inevitability
Brendan Maloney-USA TODAY Sports
I wrote an essay after the Oklahoma game last year. You might call it my no-confidence vote. Google analytics tells me that it has had a revival in the last two weeks.
That piece could have been written a half dozen times since 2010. And it was in various piecemeal, inchoate forms. I think it still rings true. You tell me.
We're in the same place 11 months later as we were on October 15th, 2012. With our own false hopes presaged, the obligatory sacrificial lamb assistant foreshadowed...
When you write a piece like this, you write how the trends are "disturbing" and "unacceptable" and that "Mack Brown must seriously re-evaluate his blah blah blah..." Then you lay into the coordinators or a position coach. This is the hedge. Stopping just short of saying what needs to be done because the right assistants and players might just turn this thing around, because it has happened before....
Mack Brown has to go.
And I say it without vitriol. He has to go. Tomorrow. Next month. At the end of the season. Whenever. The dignity of a forced resignation at the conclusion of the season is fine by me. This season is going nowhere fast, anyway. But if he won't go - and I suspect he won't quietly because I don't think the average Longhorn fan can comprehend how insular his world is - then he has to be fired. And if DeLoss Dodds, various donor sycophants, or even just good men who are willing for Texas football to stink because they're more interested in life lessons imparted to 85 scholarship 20 year olds than BCS bowls, get in the way, then they need to be sufficiently motivated to act. Or find their own retirements or marginalization hastened.
I don't need to reiterate what's wrong at Texas. If you read the blog, you already know. On-field results have brutally hastened the usual lag in fan uptake between hope and reality. We don't have to tease out trends anymore when they're slapping us in the face. If you're a BC reader, you already knew exactly how we'd lose to Ole Miss. Our state of the program is so poor, the Longhorns have reduced a wildly unpredictable game played by 20 year olds that none of us can handicap properly into a science of projectable ineptitude (and Las Vegas had Texas favored by three points!?!). Get Caesar's a link to BC, post-haste.
Now I'm mainly interested in the interplay between legacy and inevitability.
Last year, I ended the piece with this:
It will take some time. There will be a ugly power struggle. Things will probably get nasty on the 40 Acres and I hope my contribution to that discussion is fair, amusing, and objective. Maybe Brown has a dead cat bounce and his enthusiasts pour out from the cracks for a while.
It doesn't matter. It's over.
This is no declaration of war on Mack Brown. It's a declaration of resignation.
So now we wait.
It's ugly. And will get uglier. We're still in that waiting game. But this matter has already been decided, even if the main players or their shills are unaware of it or emotionally unprepared to accept their failure.
It's over. But how the ending plays out matters.
The degree to which Mack Brown continues to resist inevitability will determine ten years from now whether we can look back upon him fondly as a healer and program rebuilder or if he'll be a permanent object of scorn and derision who chose to wear the martyr's mantle of "serving the kids" while selfishly seeking a delusional BCS-Bowl-Ride-Into-The-Sunset faerie tale ending to his own personal narrative. He can't fix this. He broke it.
Although Brown's future is no longer within his sphere of control - his legacy, like our failed football program, is in his hands, and in his hands alone. The buck stops there. All 5.4 million of them.
How, when, and why Mack Brown steps down (or is forced out) will determine whether he goes down as one of UT's great object lessons in hubris and self-delusion, or simply as a good man and vital program spark who gradually lost his way - as all of us have at one time or another. Let he who is without sin...
While the human story can be lost in far too many business decisions, it's the human story turned into a personality cult that overwhelmed our capacity to make the right business decision for far too long. The myth-making machine in Bellmont created that cult to its self-serving, eternal shame. They have never had much embarrassment in gorging at the trough while remaining contemptuous of the fans who provided their meal.
It never was Mack Brown Texas Football. It's Texas Football. And those are still work uniforms.
That last line, illustrative of the DKR mentality - from which an entire no-frills, hard-nosed program culture evolved - is so long forgotten in Austin, sometimes I think I'm reading about Camelot. We've replaced the blue-collar, tedious work of real archaeology - toothbrushes and chamois painstakingly unearthing and preserving the foundations of program culture - with lazy mythomania and false threads of connection.
Like trying to paint Mack Brown as DKR's cultural successor.
Aside from a shared solid ethical grounding, were there men ever more dissimilar as coaches? There is no Lady in Town Lake handing out swords. And real history tells us that most crowns are wrested from bloody scalps by dirty, sweat-covered hands. In the end, all kings depose themselves, whether by neglect or by choice.
Serve the program. Serve the players. Serve the fans. It's time.

Q: How to add items from a list of dictionarys to another list using IF conditions I want to build my own list of dictionaries by getting certain keys and values from another list of dictionaries. I also need to check if some keys exists or not to filter them and if some of them exists, extract only some parts.
Here you are the original list of dictionaries:
messages_raw_json = [
        #item_dict_1
        {
            "_id": "1",

        {
            "_id": "4",
            "t": "user_join",
            "ts": "2021-11-17T20:05:48.043Z",
            "msg": "testing",
            "u": {
                "_id": "user4",
                "username": "micheal11",
                "name": "george"
            },
            "_updatedAt": "2021-11-17T20:05:48.065Z"
        },

         #item_dict_5
        {
            "_id": "5",

            "msg": "Another message here",
            "ts": "2021-11-14T19:59:11.428Z",
            "u": {
                "_id": "user5",
                "username": "Mason78",
                "name": "stuart"
            },
            "_updatedAt": "2021-11-14T19:59:11.770Z",
            "urls": [
                {
                    "url": "https://wa.me/c/12345",
                    "headers": {
                        "contentType": "text/html; charset=\"utf-8\""
                    },
                }
            ]
        }
    ]

My first condition is to check if the item dict includes a key named 't', in that case, I want to skip it. This IF statement handles correctly the situation:
if 't' in message.keys():
   continue

Then I want to get the url from the key 'urls', if this is not empty.
And same for 'attachments', I'd like to get only the values from 'title', 'image_url' and 'description' but here is where I'm struggling.
This is the code I wrote which is not working. I understand why (not all the items have the keys I'm trying to retrieve) but honestly, as I'm a beginner in Python, I don't know how to write the other conditions to make it work. Thanks in advance for your help.
messages = []
for message in messages_raw_json:
    if 't' in message.keys():
        continue
    data = {
        'time': message['ts'],
        'name': message['u']['name'],
        'username': message['u']['username'],
        'msg': message['msg'],
        'url': message['urls'][0]['url'],
        'attach_file': message['attachments']['title'],
        'attach_file': message['attachments']['image_url'],
        'attach_file': message['attachments']['description']
        }
    messages.append(data)

print(messages)

A: From what I am hearing, you are trying to get all the data but ones with the key "t".
To get a piece of data that you are not sure exists, just use:
message.get(key, exceptionvalue)
# Where 'exception value' is simply what it returns if the key does not exist

For example:
data  = {

Note that trying to get each and every value is not efficient. If it was a 1d dictionary, you could create a list of keys (and exception values) and just iterate through, but that is not really plausible in this case.

Microsoft posts record Q4 results despite Xbox slowdown
Microsoft demos its bid at creating 'secure' voting systems
Xbox celebrates ten years of Live, will give special-edition 360s to contest winners
Nicole Lee, @nicole
It's hard to believe a whole decade has passed since the birth of Xbox Live, but here we are. From its roots as an online multiplayer service, Live has grown into a full-fledged entertainment platform bringing users Achievements and Gamerscores, customizable avatars, entertainment services and apps like Xbox Music and SmartGlass. As part of the celebration, you can head over to Xbox.com to try to win a limited edition Tenth Anniversary Xbox 360 and pick up a free copy of Wreckateer. You can also save 50 percent on a number of games that include Fruit Ninja Kinect, Full House Poker and Peggle. After you've entered the contest and downloaded a few games, go ahead and put in an extra hour of Halo 4 today, because hey, that's the least you can do to celebrate a service that's given you ten years of joy.

Must Have Accessories To Make Study Abroad Easier.
Get organized before you board the plane with these top packing essentials.
One accessory no one should travel without is a portable charger!! It saved my life (more than once) while traveling throughout the UK and Europe and I don't go anywhere without it. The best part is they're super cheap, like this one I have from Best Buy. Just make sure the charger is fully charged before using it ; ) But they're small, lightweight, and a must have device in this day and age. Portable Chargers – Niki Kirschner.
The Sakroots Artist Circle Xlarge Wallet is the perfect wallet for travel. It has multiple compartments for change, money, and cards to keep you organized and has plenty of space to fit all those strangely shaped foreign bills, your passport, tickets, and other travel documents. It's big enough for everything you need to lug around but small enough to fit into a cross body bag. It also works nicely as a clutch when you don't want to carry a purse. Sakroots Wallets. – Hannah Polston.
One of most important tips is to always be prepared, no matter what situations arise that you may not see coming. The one thing you must always put in your bag while traveling is a small packable umbrella. Especially in England, it rains A LOT and it helps to always be prepared by just leaving an umbrella in your purse or travel backpack. There's nothing worse than stumbling outside into a sudden, unexpected downpour and you forgot your umbrella, so you're stuck, drenched in the rain. Portable Umbrella. – Miranda Siwak.
I would never travel again without my hang-up toiletries bag. Hostels are crowded and bathrooms in halls/dorms are usually tiny. Chances are there will be limited space to put your toiletries bag on a bathroom counter (if there is one at all). Having a bag that hangs up is incredibly useful and it will keep your stuff off the ground more often than you think-this includes the wet ground in the shower! The one I use is from LL Bean and it has multiple compartments and zip up pockets. Toiletries Bag. – Roslyn Kent.
A must have for any traveler is a great adapter, and even better is a multi country/continent adapter! Multi continent adapters are very common and can be purchased from most electronic stores as well as eBay and Amazon. My multi continent adapter has plugs for North America, The UK, Europe, and Australia. Even more convenient are the two USB ports, which come in handy for charging my iPhone and well as my GoPro, and allow me to charge multiple devices at one time! It is definitely something I would never leave home without when traveling. Frequent travelers need this product to prevent the hassle of carrying around multiple adapters or purchasing a new adapter for each trip to a new country/continent. Continent Adapters. – Emily Freebery.
It's always great to keep a journal nearby when you study abroad. You'll be able to write about anything and everything that's important to you. You can use it to jot down your first impressions about places, you can write good food or music that you encounter during your stay. You can also use the journal to practice your writing skills with a new language if you are in a country where they speak a different language or even to write down slang that you learn from local speech. This journal will become a time capsule for your time abroad, it will be filled with your own thoughts and memories about your host country and that's priceless.
Also, there are tons of cute Travel Journals to pick from out there! It will not only be a useful accessory but it can also be fashionable. – Nikki McKenna.
It is absolutely amazing what a pair of comfortable shoes and a back pack can do! My mother has always guided my fashion choices by suggesting "well just wear whatever is comfortable" and of course, I always do the opposite. However, when I travel, I actually take my mothers bit of advice very seriously. Comfortable shoes are key to having a good travel experience. If you are traveling, odds are you will be walking… A LOT. Pack a pair of Chaco sports sandals on your next adventure! These shoes are great for many outdoor activities including fun in the water. They won't take up much room in your travel bag and are very affordable. Chaco Sports Sandals. (See Featured Image) – Sara Burke.
I used an unlocked phone in Spain through Orange pre-paid SIM cards and it was great! – Sarah Dougherty.
When I was in England I used "Three Mobile" on my own unlocked phone, they had a deal where I only paid 15 pounds/month and got unlimited data which was pretty awesome…the plan worked throughout the UK and also extended to a number of other countries in Europe. – Emily Roth.
Alexandra Perez A must have for any trip is a portable, lighted LED mirror. It's light weight and battery operated so it's easy to travel with! Plus, the folding kickstand makes it easy to do your hair or makeup wherever you are. Led Mirror. – Alexandra Perez.
A must have on any trip to stay comfortable is a travel neck pillow! Whether you're flying on a plane, riding on a train, or cruising in a car, you don't want your neck to get sore if you fall asleep. Travel neck pillows support your neck and can be used as a pillow if necessary! Get one that clips on to your luggage so you don't lose it and stay comfortable throughout your travels, like this one from Samsonite. Travel Pillow. – Gabrielle Hickmon.
