Smart leadership - wise leadership: Environments of value in an emerging future
No full textThere is a strong link between organisational culture and profit after all a happy workforce is a productive workforce. Yet a culture of inertia rather than innovation prevails in many organisations. Wise leaders, however, know how to work with the grain of human value and worth, harnessing it, so as to add shared value both for the organisation and for the good of society. So, how can astute leaders set the right conditions for creativity and cultivate non-economic goods, such as time and relationships, that make for a happy, effective workforce? The author proposes the notion of organisational culture as 'environments of value' wherein inner value translated into external value is embedded within the triple bottom line and indeed an awareness of how an organisation is like a force field: it exercises power and leaves a footprint. This construct informs the emerging concept of Shared Value as requiring five literacies about: Shareholder value and return for risk; Value for the social environment linked to respect for the natural environment; Inner value of those in the enterprise, which, when unlocked, releases energies and adds value; Nurture of non-quantifiable qualities that promote human flourishing; Understandings of how power relations distort the way organisations operate He clearly signposts the link between promoting an environment of value within which these literacies flourish and the added value for the organisation arising from such a culture.</p
Wickham Steed as a Foreign Correspondent
No full text The one-time editor of the London Times looked upon journalism as “something larger than the getting and the publication of news.” The author of this article, a professor of history whose research for many years has centered on foreign and war correspondence, interviewed Steed shortly before the latter's death. </jats:p

Using the Edmonton Obesity Staging System to predict mode of delivery after labor induction
No full textObjective: To evaluate the use of the Edmonton Obesity Staging System for Obstetrics (EOSSo) in predicting cesarean delivery amongst term, nulliparous, singleton pregnancies in women with overweight or obesity, who are undergoing an induction of labor.
Methods: A prospective-cohort study was performed in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. Women undergoing an induction of labor at term were recruited to either a sample cohort, including women with a body mass index (BMI) of ≥25.0 kg/m2 at first antenatal visit, or a control cohort with a BMI of 18.5-24.9 kg/m2. Participating women provided a self-reported health history and consented to review of their medical records allowing allocation into EOSSo categories. The primary outcome was the rate of cesarean delivery based on EOSSo category. Secondary outcomes consisted of a summary score of adverse maternal, delivery, and neonatal events.
Results: Overall, 345 women were recruited, with a participation rate of 93.7%. The sample cohort consisted of 276 women with overweight or obesity, while the control cohort included 69 normal weight women. Overall rate of cesarean delivery was 30.4% for the control cohort and 35.8%, 29.9%, 43.2%, and 90.5% for women assigned an EOSSo category 0, 1, 2, and 3, respectively (P < 0.001). A summary score was not indicative of overall rate of adverse maternal, delivery, and neonatal events (P = 0.22).
Conclusion: The EOSSo may help predict the chance of cesarean delivery in a high-risk group of nulliparous women with overweight or obesity, who are undergoing an induction of labor at term

3D computer animation course development
No full textxi, 110 leaves : ill. ; 29 cm. --Over the last ten years a new industry has grown and developed as the world's
technology became faster, more powerful and affordable. This industry is 3D Computer
Animation. Whether you watch movies or television, read magazines or newspapers, it is
a rare day when you do not see 3D computer images of one type or another. While post
secondary institutions have recognized the need to offer training in this industry, the
public school system has almost all but ignored it. The cost of developing 3D Computer
Animation programs in schools is now at an affordable level. As more schools in Alberta
start offering 3D Computer Animation as part of the Career and Technology Studies
program concerns become evident. One concern is that there are few teachers who are
trained in this area and the other concern is that the curriculum and credits for a program
of this type is almost nonexistent. This project addresses these concerns. This document
outlines objectives for teachers who wish to teach 3D Computer Animation and would
like to know what skills need to be taught. Four proposed introductory courses for the
Career and Technology Studies program are presented. The author intends to approach
Alberta Learning with completed courses for their consideration and acceptance as
official Career and Technology Studies courses
