CERVICAL RIPENING WITH THE FOLEY CATHETER.
Objective: To evaluate maternal and neonatal outcomes in a large series of patients undergoing cervical ripening with a Foley catheter. Methods: The database of the Labor and Delivery Unit of the University of a teaching. hospital in Italy was used to identify consecutive patients with a Bishop score (BS) of 4 or less who underwent pre-induction cervical ripening with a Foley catheter. The main outcome measures were clinical chorioamnionitis, endometritis, and suspected and culture-proven neonatal sepsis. Results: Of 602 women undergoing cervical ripening with a Foley catheter, 160 (26.6%) went into active labor without additional interventions. Oxytocin was administered immediately after removal of the Foley catheter in 188 (31.2%) of the women, and 254 (42.2%) required an application of prostaglandin E2 vaginal get. The cesarean delivery rate was 25.6%. The median time to delivery was 1469 min (range, 94-3350 min). Of the women who gave birth vaginally, 225 (50.2%) were delivered within 24 h. Clinical chorioamnionitis and postpartum endometritis occurred in 3 (0.5%) and 6 (1.0%) of the women, respectively. Neonatal sepsis was suspected in 4 (0.7%) of the newborns but blood culture results were negative in all cases. Conclusion: Transcervical use of the Foley catheter is safe for pre-induction cervical ripening, and the associated risk of maternal or perinatal infections is negligible.

Phase relations and fractionation sequences in potassic magma series modelled in the system CaMgSi2O6-KAlSiO4-Mg2SiO4SiO2-F2O-1 at 1 bar to 18 kbar
Liquidus phase relations in the system diopside-kalsilite-forsterite-quartz with 3 wt% F were examined at 1 bar and the locations of important invariant points were determined at 18 kbar. At all pressures within this range a large liquidus field for fluorphlogopite (Phl) exists, and has a large influence on both melting and fractionation processes. One eutectic point was found to the silica-rich side of the plane Lc-Fo-Di at Di(1)Ks(30)Fo(2)Qz(67), where a melt coexists with San, Qz, Phl and Di at 840 degrees C and 1 bar. Another eutectic point must exist in the silica-poor part of the system because the phase topology determines that thermal barriers must exist. At this point a feldspathoid, either Lc or Ks, must coexist with Fo, Phl and a Ca-bearing phase such as Di. The exact location and phase assemblage were not determined, but the equilibrium melt must have a composition rich in Di (>29 wt%) and extremely poor in Qz (<8 wt%). The composition of the first eutectic moves towards lower SiO2 contents with increasing pressure (Di(3)Ks(40)Fo(1)Qz(56) at 18 kbar), whereas the second does not exist at 18 kbar due to the disappearance of Lc as a stable liquidus phase. Liquids which coexist with mafic minerals such as En, Fo, Phl and Di are important for the genesis of potassium-rich mafic rocks by partial melting in the mantle and for the early stages of fractional crystallisation. The equilibrium melt at the invariant point Fo + En + Phl + Di + L at 1125 degrees C is very poor in Fo and Di components at atmospheric pressure (Di(5)Ks(37)Fo(5)Qz(53)), whereas at Is kbar the melt contains large amounts of Fo and Di (Di(19)Ks(31)Fo(28)Qz(21)), and has a composition close to that of natural lamproites. Kamafugites do not correspond to melts in this system under any of the studied conditions, and appear to require CO2 in the source. Fractionation processes from primitive: potassic basanite melts are controlled principally by the size (and not the mere presence) of the liquidus phase field for phlogopite: at high pressures where the Phl field is large, olivine is eliminated early from the fractionating assemblage and Cpx + Phl fractionation may lead to relatively silica-rich rock differentiates such as trachytes. At low pressures, extensive olivine and restricted Phl crystallisation prevents silica enrichment in the melt, resulting in phonolitic differentiates. Later crystallisation of alkali feldspar accentuates the trends laid down in the early stages of fractionation

Professionalism, golf coaching and a master of science degree
A distinction can be made between 'professionalisation', which is concerned with occupational status and standing, and 'professionalism,' which refers to matters of quality and standards of practice (especially specialized knowledge, ethics and altruism). The purpose of this stimulus article is to present key features of contemporary medical professionalism as a basis for critically reflecting on discourse associated with Tiger Woods' current coach, Sean Foley. It is suggested that that provision of a Master of Science degree in golf teaching/coaching would facilitate the development of 'professionalism' in golf coaches

A Hierarchy of Knowledge for the Formal Analysis of Security-Sensitive Business Processes
Security-sensitive business processes are business processes that must comply with security requirements such as authorization constraints or separation or binding of duty. As such, they are difficult to design and notoriously prone to error, and a number of approaches have been proposed to formalizing and reasoning about models of such processes to detect potential vulnerabilities. In this paper, we present an approach that introduces the notion of knowledge for the formal analysis of security-sensitive business processes. We structure knowledge hierarchically, in different levels that can interact with each other in order to derive new information, which allows us to specify at different levels information about sets of critical tasks and thereby control the process execution and enforce security properties
Who Are These Strangers and Where Are They Going?
This exhibition features interactive and site-specific installations, alongside unveiling, in an Australian first, an important musical soundscape to mark this momentous occasion. Created in collaboration with musicians Joe Gala and Teila Watson, this song is an aural recreation and expansion of the oldest known song in the history of Australia, telling of the exchange between Captain Cook and the Badtjala people. Other centrepieces in the exhibition include a 10-metre long, one-metre-wide installation comprising 3000 oyster shells, a recontextualisation of Foley’s celebrated 2001 photographic series Wild Times Call, and a collaboration with Ballarat artist collective Pitcha Makin Fellas for a new installation alongside 2018’s Horror Has a Face. The exhibition will be accompanied by a print catalogue with critical essays by Djon Mundine OAM and Dr Odette Kelada, and additional educational resources.No Full Tex
Division of labour and sharing of knowledge for synchronous collaborative information retrieval
Synchronous collaborative information retrieval (SCIR) is concerned with supporting two or more users who search together at the same time in order to satisfy a shared information need. SCIR systems represent a paradigmatic shift in the way we view information retrieval, moving from an individual to a group process and as such the development of novel IR techniques is needed to support this. In this article we present what we believe are two key concepts for the development of effective SCIR namely division of labour (DoL) and sharing of knowledge (SoK). Together these concepts enable coordinated SCIR such that redundancy across group members is reduced whilst enabling each group member to benefit from the discoveries of their collaborators. In this article we outline techniques from state-of-the-art SCIR systems which support these two concepts, primarily through the provision of awareness widgets. We then outline some of our own work into system-mediated techniques for division of labour and sharing of knowledge in SCIR. Finally we conclude with a discussion on some possible future trends for these two coordination techniques
