Unknown souce from the NHS took the above photograph recently. Shockingly it shows two senior surgeons laughing and joking at the pain suffered by a patient. When questioned by our reporter one said “It wasn’t me he did it” Then proceeded to spin around for no apparent reason and fall over a theatre trolley. The other responded “ Har Har Har Har Har”.By SLAP
His boss abused him before his colleagues, for his ill-professional performance. His manager has sought complete answer for his failures and failing to answer may result in elimination from his position. Deeply thinking about his future and observing his child’s activities, he was standing near the window to find a solution to his problems. His son’s activities attracted his concentration. His
I had a follow-up appointment with the midwife this morning, and while I was discussing the insulin/no insulin question with her (yes to insulin, boo hiss), my cell phone rang.
“Do we have any other eggs?” my husband asked.
“Eggs?” I replied.
“Yeah, eggs. These eggs say they are expired.”
“You can use eggs after their expiration date,” I [...]
The action picks up in what Senator Specter calls his “war room” near his office in Washington, DC. The “war room” is where Senator Specter goes to discuss current events, potential Senate business, and his planned accomplishments for the day. In the room with him are his two top advisers, Joey Porter and Donovan McNabb. Joey Porter: I just read that oil has gone up something stupid…l

You want your kids to have every opportunity to succeed in this world. You want them to learn self-discipline, how to be healthy, and to gain an appreciation and understanding for the world around them. The business world is becoming increasingly globalized. Intercultural competence, the skill which allows people to operate effectively in an international setting, is becoming ever more important. What better way to ensure your kids are ready for the "real world" than to make sure they know how to navigate a variety of different cultures? And what better way to introduce them to the concept by using a sport they already know and love: soccer? Soccer (or football) is the most popular international sport. Millions of people all across the globe eagerly play it and keep up with it, and inter
Competence is earned. You must learn how to build competence to use it. A person with competence will take what they learn and use it to solve different situations in their life. They will make what they learn second to the first nature they intend to acquire. A competent person always sees the new light [...]

This month we are highlighting an important aspect of health and safety but one that is often overlooked or is given lip service only.Under Health and Safety legislation, employers have a duty to provide adequate Training for their employees.It is easy enough to book people onto training courses. What is more difficult is to ensure the training delivers its intended benefits; the most important of which is "to ensure, so far as is reasonably practicable, the health and safety at work of employees".With the launch of our new Training Website, it seemed timely to address the issue of Effective Health and Safety Training.more...
Like our physical condition our managerial competence and capability can get out of shape. What can we do to exercise it to help us compete, grow and lead our businesses successfully? This is a challenge I am facing with a company right now.
Here are the facts:
15 Year Old Company (was a roll-up of 3 previous companies)
Flat Revenues and Profits for 10 years
Market Served is Growing 20+ percent annually
Average Management Team Tenure is 20+ years
Words Spoken Say “We Want to Grow”
The Pervasent Belief is “It is a Sales Problem”
I think the issue is Managerial flabbiness, or the inability to apply managerial energy, creativity and brainpower to think differently or to see situations from different perspectives. Seeing and thinking differently might lead to new ideas, new actions or God forbid CHANGE.
Everyone is comfortable, why rock the boat? The owner wants to grow aggressively but his leadership team is not as motivated. He sees the benefits of the growth, b
In case there was any doubt about the lengths to which the Bush administration will go to promote their Christian extremist ideology over competence, we have a reminder in the form of Dr. James Holsinger, Bush's nominee for Surgeon General. Not only did Dr. Holsinger help found a church that views homosexuality as a choice that can be "cured," but his writings reflect his beliefs that homosexuality is unhealthy.If you are like me, you are asking yourself what a physician is doing founding conservative churches in the first place, but let's set that aside for now. It is of greater concern that we could end up with a Surgeon General who sounds like he received his medical training at Regents University.From the Associate Press as reported on LEX18 News:"He has a pretty clear bias against gays and lesbians," said Christina Gilgor, director of the Kentucky Fairness Alliance, a gay rights group. "This ideology flies in the face of current scientific medical studies. That makes me uneasy t
Nokia Siemens Networks has signed an agreement with the French Mobile Telecom operator SFR to develop a joint SFR-Nokia Siemens Networks Competence Center in Paris.
The center will aim to develop innovative concepts and appealing services for mobile centric applications. The main objective of this joint effort is to develop a common approach for launching advanced services.
The Competence Center combines SFR’s knowledge of the end-user and business requirements and Nokia Siemens Networks’ expertise in the development of application platforms and solutions.
“The launch of this Competence Center is the latest in a long list of achievements that underscores our good cooperation with Nokia Siemens Networks,” said Paul Corbel, Chief Technical Officer, SFR. “SFR also turned to Nokia Siemens Networks to migrate our core network to 3GPP Release 4 softswitches, as well as to help us to launch France’s first nationwide HSDPA and the first to make a WCDMA 900

You’re back at work in the majestic headquarters of the firm, with your feet firmly planted on your desk, as your phone rings.
“Hello”
“Hi Mike, this is Jennifer from HR.”
Shit! They know. How the fuck can they know you’ve seen Blunderstone. Was it a test? Was it a fake interview organised by HR to test your loyalty to the firm? Does the firm have such strong relationships with clients like
This is a fascinating legal case with all kinds of twists and turns by the Courts and the Government. It also illustrates the lengths the Bush administration has gone to while flouting the Rule of Law. Here’s the concluding paragraph, follow the link for the whole article.
I predict that some day the Supreme Court will hear the merits of Jose Padilla’s case. It will not be able to stand on technicalities forever. Whatever it does decide about the constitutionality of the way Padilla has been treated by his own government for years, the decision will have profound importance to every American who presumes, perhaps wrongly, that rights of due process, the rule of law, and fair play–long held to be hallmarks of our justice system–still mean something today.

Whoever said knowledge is power, was wrong.Way too many people read a few online marketing books, and then figure they know everything there is to know in those books just because they read them. And then at a certain point they stop buying any more books, because they know EVERYTHING. But guess what? They don't practice any of it. And then they wonder why they're not making any money marketing online.I'm going to let you in on a big secret. Until you actually do something with what you learn, you haven't really learnt ANYTHING. If that's you, you would do well to go out of your way to buy as many books, courses, tapes etc. as you possibly can until you feel so stupid for learning the same things over and over again…or you go so broke… you're finally forced to get off your duff and do something with all that "knowledge". Good grief!You would be amazed and stunned at the amount of money spent each year on marketing books, tapes, CDs, etc, that never get read, much le

Things might appear to be very strange for Canadians, but Stéphane Dion got elected as the new leader of the Liberal Party of Canada (LPC) by of 54.7% of its 4,605 delegates who were present in Montreal after four rounds. As for Michael Ignatieff, the only remaining candidate in the final round, he collected 45.3% of the votes (2084). This leadership race might look very strange, but it is, above all, "the triumph of competence" (Stéphane Dion) against incompetence (Michael Ignatieff), as political columnist André Pratte said it.Stéphane Dion drawn by caricaturist Serge ChapleauThe author of this text is definitely not a supporter of the LPC, but at least let's recognize that unlike what so many people think, Stéphane Dion, as a former professor of political science at the University of Montréal, knows federalism more than any Quebecker separatists out there. When certain Quebecker separatists used sophistic statements to smear his reputation, Dion always knew how to smartly rep
