The Tightest Panty Girdle I Ever Worn

Without being so bad, better than no law has been approved

Timing of vote on the law of Sustainable Economy, in
Economics Committee of Congress EFE / Chema Moya
The truth is that until now I had stayed away from discussion of the so-called law Sinde, ie of the first final provision (p. 95-99) of bill Sustainable Economy. More than anything because I had not sufficiently documented and reported. But I was struck by the unanimity that I found against the law in my blogosphere / tuitesfera reference. And the overall virulence of the views. By default, I distrust these phenomena stampede. And I finished reading the famous provision.

The issue is simple. Amending copyright law to create a Commission on Intellectual Property , one of whose functions is safeguarding intellectual property rights against its violation by the services responsible for the information society . For this may take measures to interrupt the supply of a service company to remove any information or content that violate intellectual property by a for-profit provider, directly or indirectly, or who intended to cause financial damage. The implementation of these resolutions, as they may affect the rights and freedoms guaranteed in Article 20 of the Constitution, require prior judicial authorization , according to the procedure laid down in Article 122 bis of Law Regulatory Contentious Administrative Jurisdiction .

In this line, correspond to the Courts Central Administrative Litigation authorize, by order, execution of the resolutions adopted by the Second Section of the Commission on Intellectual Property to interrupt the provision of information services or to withdraw content that violate intellectual property .

The procedure is as follows. as Agreed by the Commission, request the competent court approval for its implementation. The four-day non-extendable following the notification of the decision by the Commission and highlighting the record, the Court shall convene the legal representative of the Administration, the Public Prosecutor and the holders of the rights and freedoms of the person concerned or their designees to represent to a hearing in which, in a contradictory manner, hear all persons and resolved by the order authorizing or denying enforcement of the measure .

Is it for both the anger that has mounted? Not so much if we talk about the law itself, but some of its implications and, above all, of the drift that such initiatives might take in the future. Basically the arguments against the measures can be taken to ensure the protection of intellectual property rights in the digital environment, ie the free download and non-consensual content subject to copyright, is that to secure these, it is necessary to violate other more important and affect many more people. Basically we are talking about mentioned rights and freedoms guaranteed in Article 20 of the Constitution and net neutrality. But is not the case.

Another thing is the speed of the procedure: time limit of four days . Given the very slow operation of the administration of justice in Spain, give such priority to these cases compared to many others who, from my point of view, are of far greater importance, is an intolerable privilege granted to management companies and copyright content industries to the detriment of other citizens.

And then there is the famous argument that no doors can be put to sea. That is, that these measures will not serve anything. Ignacio School explains in his post efforts useless. With this I completely agree. As I also agree that the content industries, in this scenario, are supported on models business obsolete sooner or later will have to change. But it will fall from the cherry. And meanwhile, we have a problem and we run a risk.

The problem is all the time and effort that we're losing and we will continue to lose in these battles. All. But mostly the government and especially the judiciary. And the risk is that companies with rights management and content industries, perceiving the futility of this law, press for further action that these other, violate our rights and net neutrality. Somehow, we are opening the spigot.

Whereupon felicitémosnos because the law has been approved and keep ourselves alert to not approved in the future.

40% of the unemployed live in households with all members unemployed

The same day the Council of Ministers took the decision not to extend, from February 2011, the aid of 426 euros for the unemployed who have exhausted all subsidies, the Bank of Spain warned that 40% of 4.645 million of unemployed people in Spain (in the second quarter) live in households with all members unemployed, which means that 8% of the workforce does not have any income.
In its latest economic bulletin, the Bank of Spain said that although the unemployment rate (20.01% in the second quarter) is still far four points from its peak in the crisis of the nineties, this time, "the pattern unemployment is different, and their impact on households, the more, because on the one hand, the sharp rise in the unemployment rate of household head and, secondly, the simultaneous increase in unemployment situations in the home. "
should be remembered that the Labour Force Survey (LFS) in the third quarter indicated that the number of households in which all active members unemployed stood at 1,292,300, after registering a slight decline in that period of 15,900. It is the first decline since 2007. In an annual comparison, the EPA shows an increase of 155,800 households with all their assets in unemployment and a decrease in 277,300 households occupied all of its assets.

also improves confidence in its report Monthly, Bank of Spain discerned a slight recovery in consumption. The indicators for the fourth quarter, still sparse, suggest that spending would be returning to "a soft path of recovery from the sharp swings that occurred in the last two quarters related to the impact of measures of a temporary nature," he says. He cites to support this assertion, improved indicators of consumer and business confidence. Government spending, however, fell 0.3% to late October, increase the pace of cuts in the remainder of the year as a result of reduced government salaries from the month of June and containment transfers currents. And with respect to budget implementation, the Bank of Spain has shown that in the first ten months of the year, the rate of annual increase in income stood at 25% above the official forecast for the whole year, located in 19.1%.
According to the Bank of Spain, the area endorsed new housing construction has shown signs of 'slight recovery' on-year in August and September, after the sharp falls of recent years. By contrast, the official tender for civil works continued its downward trend in September. For the services sector, the available data are "more negative" because the confidence indicator prepared by the EC shows a level infrerior the third quarter.
In its report, the governing body Fernández Ordóñez devotes a section to the internationalization of the company in ensuring that the number of companies that provide services abroad is now reduced. Therefore calls for increasing these markets and remove barriers that hinder access to them.
For its part, the Savings Bank Foundation, Funcas, made public yesterday his new forecast panel, which improves the consensus of analysts two tenths, to the -0.2% drop in GDP this year, and one to the next, to 0.7%. Yet this estimate is almost half the Government's 1.3%.

Spain reached the peak of unemployment and the minimum occupancy in the first quarter of 2011

Registered unemployment has not yet peaked after three years from the start of the crisis and its peak is reached in the first quarter of 2011, according to the 'Progress of the Labor Market' produced jointly Afi and the bosses of large temporary employment (Agettes).

According to their estimates, will also be in the first quarter of next year when the Social Security membership reaches its minimum level. "All indications are that the recovery in employment is moderate and did not recover the values \u200b\u200bof a normal year membership for another five years, "said Afi-Agettes.

In the crisis of 92-94 it took 39 months since he gave the minimum value of membership in January 1994 until it regained the pre-crisis levels (April 1997). According Afi-Agettes, in the case of the current employment downturn in the collapse of employment is becoming more profound and prolonged forecasts recovery away, at least in five years.

In the coming months will happen, according to his calculations, a slow attenuation of the deterioration of employment, so that the annual fall occupation will run from November -1.3% to -1% in February 2011, which would bring the total employed 18.2 million workers.

From February to September, a total of 308,000 unemployed people have stopped receiving unemployment benefits. In Spain, Afi and Agettes explain, for every dollar spent on employment integration policies, EUR 4.2 is for policies to protect the unemployed (passive policies).

This ratio, which according to Agettes should be balanced, has increased over previous years. In 2008, were for 3.15 euros for every euro passive policies aimed at political active.

PRODUCTIVITY HAS IMPROVED, BUT FOR THE DESTRUCTION OF EMPLOYMENT.

In its report, Afi and underline that Spain Agettes improved productivity at work apparent in the third quarter of the year for job losses and not an effective economic model.

In 2011, the projections of both entities suggests that Spain registered an evolution of employment and productivity "significantly worse" than the European average. Thus, employment will fall by 0.3% in Spain next year, and only Greece (-2.6%), Ireland (-0.8%) and Portugal (-0.7%) will destroy more jobs Spain.

also increase productivity in Spain in 2011 by 1% below the EU average (1.4%) and out of countries such as Latvia (2.9%) and Hungary (2.7%).

Gretchen Rossi Introduction

On the International Day of AIDS

For Pearl Rosental, ALLEGED-Association of Lesbian, Gay , Transsexuals and Bisexuals of Cantabria, a member of the Advisory Committee Public Health Observatory

Cantabria social exclusion and Labour transgender sex workers makes their vulnerability to HIV

The FELGTB and arguments (Association of Lesbians, Gays, Transsexuals and Bisexuals of Cantabria), calling for joint efforts to overcome stigma and labor exclusion of transgender sex workers and reduce their vulnerability to HIV.

ALLEGED and the State Federation of Lesbians, Gays, Transsexuals and Bisexuals want to highlight in the celebration of December 1, World AIDS Day, the need for a joint effort of society, government, media and NGOs to prevent and combat exclusion, discrimination and social stigmatization of transsexual women sex workers, secure and defend their rights, facilitate their employment, meet their health needs and reduce their vulnerability and risk to HIV and other STIs.

According to the Ministry of Health, Spain, specific preventive interventions are needed for persons practicing prostitution (PEP), and highlights that "transsexual women have a particular vulnerability, sexual practices, and biological vulnerability for the same socioeconomic and cultural factors, and also for experienced transphobia, vulnerability is increased in the If transgender sex workers and non-regularized immigrants for their problems of social and labor.

regard to the prevalence of HIV in transgender women in Spain, according to the EPI-HIV Group (2), between 2000 and 2008 there were 124,428 HIV tests to people who came for the first time at 20 centers participating in the study, of which 350 (0.3%) were female transsexuals, most of them sex workers. In total, there were 3,219 new HIV diagnoses, corresponding to 90 (2.8%) of them female transsexuals, resulting in a prevalence of 25.7%. These data confirm the high vulnerability of transgender sex workers from HIV.

My Dog Puts His Chin Over My Mouth

CONCERN FOR BREACH OF COVENANT HEALTH

Gimón At Antonia Revuelta the English federation president Cancer Mama (FECMA) and AMUCCAM-Cantabrian Advisory Member Health Observatory Cantabrian

the health users at general patients particular value positively the existence in our country of a National Health
public, universal, free, funded through taxation and decentralized management. Data such as the aging population, the chronicity of some diseases, the demand for new services, the cost of treatment, the incorporation of technological and pharmaceutical expenditure, raise the debate on how to keep the current efficiency of public health, without changes in management and without further human and budgetary resources.

Health is a basic element of the welfare state in Spain is maintained with public funds, an expense that absorbs 60,000 million euros per year, equivalent to 6% of GDP and that spending continues to grow. The guarantee assistance to all people, represents an average per capita contribution of 1,816 euros in Spain and the cost of Chapter pharmacist (32%) is higher than the EU average (25%). In 2009, 17,000 million euros spent on drugs (12,000 million in pharmacies and 5,000 million in hospitals).

health spending growth affects the sustainability of the system, the system benefits coverage and the balance of public accounts.
Patients are not unaware of these realities, we are not outside the debate on public funding of health care. We are told that you can not keep growing health deficit accumulated, but it is not correct to talk of budget deficits in health, because there are no predetermined income that relate to expenditure incurred and the right thing would be to tell the difference between budgeted expenditure and expenditure real.

As a user, and as head of the Federation of Associations of Women - breast cancer patients, public health advocate and want to continue betting on the sustainability of the public system, because I recognize and appreciate the quality of care they receive and the universal right to benefits. I agree with those who say that public health must remain a strategic element of social cohesion, equality and active engine of the new economy. Our health care is managed in a decentralized model for transfer of powers to the Autonomous Communities, but this does not change the constitutional right to health or the rupture of a public health system that remains unique.

If facing a public budget differences between income and expenditure, intervention will be needed to address these differences with a decrease in expenses or increased revenues. That is a responsibility of public authorities, as is also their responsibility to the availability of a Service Charter common to all health administrations.

Some experts suggest the need to examine the cost and effectiveness of new techniques, benefits, services or drugs that enter the health system. If that arises, we must add that it is wrong coolly assess certain costs when it comes to its effectiveness on human lives. Where I have been able, I have reiterated the need a pact for sustainability, cohesion and quality of NHS, a pact of state and political nature to avoid confrontation with the users, patients and professionals, that starts with a description of the real situation allow an accurate diagnosis and an approach to the issues on which to propose reasonable solutions. Among these solutions appear as a priority the funding of the System itself.

The Covenant should be promoted by the Government, coordinated by the Inter-Territorial Board of Health and approved by Parliament, who propose appropriate measures for its implementation and development. On September 29, 2010, the Subcommittee Covenant of State for Health presented at the Congress of Deputies "Draft Final Recommendations" to achieve the Covenant, recommendations that included references to funding, the copayment, the universalization of health as non-contributory and subjective right , the quality and safety of the system, planning, management, the care coordination, human resources, the portfolio of services, drug policy, participation, primary care and public health, special schemes and research. Unfortunately

the Covenant has not been possible, and I can confirm that the associations of patients that I am part, has been disappointed, because the Pact for Health should have been reached if necessary, and not understand the interest, probably legitimate, which have caused a lack of agreement. That was not what I expected, wanted and deserved the associations of patients. This National Health System and its future sustainability, demanded a greater responsibility than they have shown those who should have come to the Covenant and they should have found the formula to make it happen.

Sample Dental Hygiene Statements

The AAPP Basque Sinde today are a burden for our companies

Through Ze Berri newsletter? of the Provincial Council of Gipuzkoa, I agree to report Regional Competitiveness Index of the European Union 2010 . Like when we see a picture of a group of people, the first thing that happens is we look for ourselves. Well, Euskadi appears in position 112 of the 268 European regions. Not bad. But it is not to throw rockets.

Reference To find a closest comparison we can say that in front displayed Madrid (56) and Catalonia (103). Something appears behind Euskadi Navarra (156). Spain together appears at position 14 in the ranking of countries, having lost a place on 2009. Spinning

fine, if you look at the various factors discussed, the greatest joy is found in the factor Higher education and learning throughout life Euskadi which appears at position 36 of the ranking . Left behind Madrid (44), Navarra (92) and Catalonia (132). In fact, the report notes that Euskadi is the European region with the highest percentage of population with higher education.

For other factors, Euskadi appears at position 81 in Health behind Madrid (7), Melilla (19), Cantabria (45), Catalonia (46) and Navarra (59). Anyone who has seen and who sees us. In market size, Euskadi appears in position 63 behind Madrid (10) and Catalonia (36). Demography is crucial here. In Innovation Euskadi appears at position 88 behind Madrid (57) and ahead Navarra (103) and Catalonia (124). Not bad, but no joy. It is depressing to look

factor Business Sophistication comes to measuring productivity and responsiveness to competitive pressures. Here occupy position 164, behind Madrid (23), Catalonia (44), Valencia (128), Andalucia (159). Bad bad.

But what disappointed me as a professional who works in the public sphere is the position of Euskadi in the institutions factor that measures the impact of government on competitiveness. Well, here we appear in position 158, behind Madrid (56), Castilla la Mancha (83), Catalonia (113) and Castilla y León (120).

Comparing the position on the various factors, we can say that today the government represent a burden for our companies. Perhaps our complicated structure confederal institutional perhaps productivity in public work, perhaps a misguided approach of the policies undertaken. We will have to study it and do something about it.

How to start the engines of transformation in the AAPP

I read with great interest the post How to reinvent public administration Survival the Directive blog. The author attributes the current functioning of the AAPP to outdated organizational system and argues that only through the talent and leadership of public sector workers will be possible to transform government. By the way

ago a historical review of policy initiatives to transform the public administration and concludes that it is an expectation that is never fulfilled.

As I read the text, my expectations grew that the author would conclude by explaining how the talent and professionalism of public employees would be able to transform their organizations, succeeding where they have not done the policy initiatives described. And what I find is the description of what he calls the drivers of change: Managing
  • enhance performance and innovative talent.
  • Develop leadership of managers.
  • create innovative cultures.
Male, of course. In this easy match. But the key issue that just avoiding the post, is how to boot in practice these engines. And from my point of view to be very talented and professional to be our public employees, many of them are, alone they will not be able to do. Because it would continually crashing over and over again with this bureaucratic, hierarchical culture that has no mechanism to reward the effort and talent. Start

these engines requires a profound change in the Civil Service. And such a change can only be performed from a strong political leadership. I am afraid that we can be frustrated, there is no other remedy. And propose to abandon this anti-political discourse so common. That, moreover, is on the edge of the anti-democratic. Because if the politicians avoid addressing a change in depth of the Civil Service is mainly due to the immense wear that may involve more than likely conflict with ... public employees.

Walmart Price Of Plan B

Tell me who you know and tell you if you will work

Half of young people find their first job through family and friends - I plug pure logic or social?

Nearly half of English youth, 47.9%, found their first job through a relative or friend, according to a study by the Labour Force Survey of INE, 2009. The importance of knowing the right person at the right place at the time of finding a job is more than studied and embraced by society. Or at least, as shown by the parents who strive to bring their children to private school since they are small, convinced that the social relationships they twist them placed in an advantageous position in the future. "Like most religious subsidized centers were created with the aim of educating the privileged classes of society, and remain in the same effort, naturally attract the type of families intended that their children access to better positions through social relations, "wrote the experts who wrote the 2008 manifesto for public education Lorenzo Luzuriaga Collective.

And when the importance of these relationships seems to extend throughout the career: a 2009 report of Creade (a company relocation and career guidance Adecco) maintains that 80% of job offers from companies in Spain are not published anywhere, but are filled through " their own ways of recruiting intermediaries (mostly scouts) or references to people you trust, "the statement said Company on the study using data from 3,415 candidates for Creade relocated in 2008 and gotten other products in the exploration department of the company.

Depending on the course and relations of each, probably cross out the outrageous case of pure cronyism or social logic. Many human resource professionals are choosing the latter. So does Nekane Rodriguez, CEO of Creade, which ensures that no more favoritism is a thing of the past. "Nobody plays it. You're not going to recommend a friend to work with you if you're not sure it's good." Of what it continues, especially in the progression professional networking is a concept that has become very famous in the shelter of new technologies and that is to create, fat and caring for a network known for professional purposes that can help you climb up or find better employment opportunities . "This is a mutual enrichment also helps you find those hidden deals," said Rodriguez, adding: "The networking also is essential to ensure that the selection process is right."

José María Peiró, professor at the University of Valencia and president-elect of the International Association of Applied Psychology (IAAP, its English acronym) insists Two different types of social capital: the most immediate, short-range (ie, family, friends, cousins), of a larger scope, known acquaintances, that networking. "The second it does is to endorse a set of values \u200b\u200band qualities of the candidate," he says, and is positive. The first case of pure favoritism of the closest negative effects.

In any event, the mere fact of getting a job through a contact does not mean that is not being sufficiently prepared for him, or even that it has obtained a recommendation or plug, leaving someone in the gutter more prepared. The question is that the overall numbers do not provide much detail.

But the fact is that the importance of contacts, whether the type and condition as they are, seem to weigh more in Spain than in other countries, according to the Household Panel EU survey in several waves between 1994 and 2001, leaving the country with the highest percentage above 40% obtained jobs through personal contacts. We are Greece, Portugal and Luxembourg, which is below 40%. This was revealed last April's work economist at Bocconi University in Milan Michele Pellizzari, which puts on the opposite side to Finland, Holland, Denmark and, although using data from a separate survey, to the U.S., all below 20%.

These data, in any case must be taken with some caution, because international studies are scarce and scattered sources give different results depending on who does the work, ask exactly what is and what is understood personal contacts. In fact, it is not uncommon to find studies that point, raw, half of the work typically found in most countries, through these friendships. However, the English figure that has thrown the INE "seems quite high, judging from international studies that I know. And also I think that is consistent with what we know about the ability of the English economy, "said in an e-mail the professor of economics at Tufts University (USA) Yannis Ioannides.

In fact, in 2001, A study on the placement of graduates in 12 European countries (made by economists José García-Montalvo and Jose Ginés Mora) also placed the English and those who got their first job at a higher rate through family or friends: 27% versus 15% on average.

Many experts talk about the Mediterranean culture, much more collectivist than individualistic. This division was made by the researcher Geert Hofstede on research conducted in the seventies, has Peiró. In one classic study, which had sought the cultural differences through the same company, IBM, based in large part of the world, it became more collectivism as an example of the Mediterranean and Latin American countries (we tend to think in terms of us and be faithful to the group that will protect you), and the United States as an example of individualism.

But not only can talk of cultural factors diffuse. When informal channels to find employment are imposed, Ioannides and Peiró match, is also because something wrong with the formal. A few days ago, highlighted in these pages the significant shortcomings of public employment offices in Spain, according to experts and unions unable to offer solutions to most of the unemployed. "The more developed an economy, are more developed formal channels," the teacher at the American university.

This statement is perfectly consistent numbers of graduate employment observatory youth of the Valencian Institute of Economic Research. According to these data, the figures for placement through family and friends were much more high in Spain, but have been reduced until in 2008 to 37.5% in urban Spain, and 43.87% in non-urban. The upturn in 2009 that shows the INE data may be due to the economic crisis.

A crisis has not only elevated the hidden market offer of employment from 60% to 80%, according Nekane Rodriguez, but it gives more value to these guarantees of acquaintances and friends in a context in which employment demand impossible demands on the supply side, Peiró explains. This professor also stresses the difference between access to first job (which probably works more that social capital near family) of professional progression, but also can go hand in hand with known, you probably have more to do with the skills of each, with these guarantees to certain positive attitudes and skills.

However, if half of the population starts with a certain advantage in that first job, do not represent that kind of social injustice? Can not be a very important factor to explain why social mobility in Spain is stagnant since the sixties? The importance of social networks in finding employment is a factor to take into account when analyzing, for example, why "the wage gap between whites and the color is around 25% - 40% in the U.S., while the wage differential between men and women is around 10% -35% in OECD countries. These wage differentials are partly explained by differences in traditional factors such as the quality of education but, nevertheless, there remains a significant residue to explain, "he wrote in a 2006 work economist Antoni Calvo-Armengol .

In another study, just published, sociologist at the University of South Bend (Indiana, USA) Gail M. McGuire says, after analyzing a survey to 5,600 pairs of mates of financial services companies largest U.S. Together, that men benefit more than women in their personal contacts for promotions. The study says these contacts as the real sources of inequality that contribute to that there are few women in managerial positions.

Of course, not everyone sees it the same way. "I do not think all of them [those who come for a job through contacts] enjoy an unfair advantage," says Professor Ioannides, adding: "I can not talk about unfair advantage. I would say it is for the public and private institutions provide different ways of getting jobs. The failure of companies to promote alternative forms of recruitment and strengthens the social benefit family. Everything has to do with the information you trust, if it is in the well known or where the market gives you. Both are important, but the modernization involves giving greater importance to the latter. "

Also, another question is whether the jobs obtained through personal contacts are better or worse than those achieved by other means. Pellizzari secured in Really work and family friends to help get a good job? that the way of contacts means earning less money on average in countries such as Finland, Greece, Portugal and the UK, but implies a higher wage but in Austria, Belgium and Holland.'s explanation Pellizzari is that in recent formal channels of job search are much stronger. In Spain, however, found no significant differences in wages between their jobs found through formal and informal.

Ultimately, pending resolution of the debate of whether fair or unfair, as the crisis passes and see if the economic development fattening formal channels to find employment, what is clear is that whoever has a friend (on the place and right time), is a treasure.

Comparison Between Heartguard Andinterceptor

Care Elementary will have a significant preventive role in the Public Health Act to Transform

The new General Law of Public Health, which is being developed from General Directorate of Public Health , led Ildefonso Hernández, whose draft has been adopted by the Government, will give healthcare professionals an important role in primary care preventive action, according to the words of Minister Health and Social Policy, Trinidad Jimenez, the Congress of Deputies. Primary Care services work in coordination with Public Health to "put the politics of prevention in the center of the system."

Until now the health legislation had focused on securing and organizing assistance from the disease but the new realities that coexist in our country, such as the growing aging population, the increase of single parent families, the weakening of family and social networks, and immigration, or the consequences of climate change , along with other realities older but not resolved, such as belonging to certain ethnic groups like the Roma, the situation of persons with mental disabilities, people at risk of social exclusion, the prison population, etc.., have been the Government to "step over" and complete the constitutional right to health protection with this new law

Act introduced an approach to health in all policies, "with specific reference to environmental and occupational health", and "incorporate rights and duties of citizens in the prevention, promotion and health protection, guaranteeing and transparency of the actions of all stakeholders.

According to the Draft document, although the quality health services are essential to improving health and quality of life of sick people, not the main determinant of our overall health. In this sense, the document maintains that health services and especially the Primary health must assume a greater role in the prevention and community health, ensuring the effectiveness of these preventive activities through coordination with public health actions. Measures and actions to consider all the environments in which they gained and lost health, from family and society, according to our education and socioeconomic level, to work, taking into account access to work and its quality , the environments and services offered by our cities, districts and villages, the air we breathe, water we drink, food we eat, and other factors that will determine our level and quality of life and as gender inequality, social and economic, among others, that may occur. The paper thus asserts that virtually all actions of government and all public or private interventions have, in varying degrees, impact on health . For result, the new public health approach aims to shape actions that go beyond the health sector to require new forms of organization.

Given the diversity of determinants of health and according to the needs arising from them, Public health professionals should be able to apply broad spectrum of knowledge and skills, making it necessary to integrate different disciplines in the field of health sciences and social sciences, as well as academic and technical profiles in line with new Experimental and technological needs.

Finally and in light of the many approaches that holds the current economic crisis, the Draft document argues that "health care and social care will be sustainable if we ensure for our population's improved health and autonomy possible in all stages of life and maximum possible equality. " And in this regard, the Draft linking the effectiveness of health policy interventions to reduce socio-economic inequalities in health, considering such inequities as a drag on economic growth. Thus the idea of \u200b\u200b"health in all policies" is that way in the transverse axis of the draft bill for the development of policies, both health and non-health that contribute to health equity across the population.

Year: by delivering sexual rights of transgender and transsexual

The annual Pride LGBT (lesbian, gay, transgender and bisexual) has named 2010 "year to transform." Both the state federation-FELGTB-like claims, the association of Cantabria for LGBT rights, thus put the emphasis on symbolic commemoration of June 28 to fulfill the sexual rights of transgendered people. Rights guaranteed by the international community but are still far from being guaranteed to all citizens throughout the English territory.

Sexual rights include:

Ø The right to sexual freedom
Ø The right to autonomy, integrity and security
sexual body or the right to sexual pleasure
Ø The right to emotional sexual expression
Ø The right to sexually associate freely
Ø The right to comprehensive sex education
Ø The right to reproductive decision-making free and responsible
Ø The right to information based on scientific knowledge
Ø The right to sexual health care

These rights are particularly vulnerable in the transgender and transsexual people who today continue to be stigmatized and discriminated against by public institutions . Despite legislative progress experienced in recent years (particularly State-level English with Gender Identity Law-Law 3 / 2007 of March 15, regulating the registration of the words correct on the sex of the people), has not yet been withdrawn documentation of transsexuality as mental illness in the International Classification of Diseases (ICD-10) which maintains the World Health Organization (WHO).

Even in a time when the English Government is committed to the WHO request the removal of transsexuality from the CIE, in the Units of Gender Identity Disorder (Utiger) established in different regions (to date in Andalusia, Asturias, Barcelona, \u200b\u200bCanarias, Extremadura, Madrid, Navarra and Basque Country) to treat called TIG, access to hormonal treatments and surgical sex reassignment remains dependent on a psychiatric diagnosis. In addition to following diagnostic criteria based on outdated gender stereotypes in today's society, the very Act 3 / 2007 requires a minimum of two years of supervised hormone therapy to change a name on ID or resorting to surgery. In this context, trans people who attend Utiger enter an evaluation process without certainty about life. This requirement challenges the other hand medicalization of state intervention in personal decisions about own body. Intervention raises the need to assess the impact of the Act as a whole, and particularly the impact of health policy derived from it in the health of its users.

However, despite this context, Utiger are necessary to provide care to people in need and avoid the risks of not providing comprehensive health care for gender reassignment, including self-medication without proper hormonal monitoring and potential adverse effects that increase the morbidity of people who undergo them. In addition to the risks posed by the black market for treatment, for example, liquid silicone replacement of breast implants, which can cause serious health problems.

disinformation health professionals about the process that transgender and transsexual people have to follow, encourage and require the implementation of protocols that give satisfactory answers to the demands felt by those affected and their families, answers to be reflected in the achievement of an adequate state of health of this population group. The same is guaranteed by an integrated approach to transgender and transsexual people, so as to achieve the standards of care and facilitate personal development and quality of life for everyone involved. A priority for this reason that primary care professionals know this process and have a drive and / or reference professionals within or outside the Autonomous Community, to attend this user group health system. In communities such as Cantabria that does not have a Utiger, it is necessary for the health system considered well the formation of a unit or establishment of a convention for people who need this service can be accessed at another communities with Utiger.

Various associations in defense of sexual rights and the right to health of trans people, as the Network for Trans Depathologization and the same association Cantabria Claims, promoted as the name implies a process of depathologization transsexuality and transgender to integrate the participation of stakeholders through the following steps:

Ø A model of care that does not consider transsexualism as a mental disorder or pathology but that is based on the recognition of gender identity and right to decide over their own bodies. Ø
Failure to follow the current diagnostic criteria of "gender identity disorder" in the DSM-IV manual of mental disorders American) and ICD-10.
Ø Free access to hormone therapy and reassignment surgeries gender, through a process of shared decision-making and informed consent. Ø
personalized attention that recognizes the diversity of gender identities and priorities for treatment of trans people.
or replacement of the evaluation function of the professional role of information and support in the treatment process.
Ø The availability of a counseling service non-binding. Ø
trans movement's participation in the development of clinical protocols and management of trans-specific care.

This speech processor with respect to the identities depathologization trans and autonomy of the body must also permeate the health system at a time when the same movement for the rights of transgender people in their own dilemma debate between the struggle for the right to treatment and the fight against compelled speech by legislation. Clearly the defense of personal autonomy of the trans community, like the general population does not in any way defend the right to treat trans people who have chosen this path for their lives.

Knowledge is an innovative value

The Green Paper Towards a Basque society based on 2030 values \u200b\u200breleased by Innovative Innobasque as a proposal for debate, knowledge cited as one of the four values \u200b\u200bto promote innovative. Sounds right, hardly anyone will discuss their relevance in to achieve an innovative society.

O yes. In the post The dirty little secret of Management Gary Hamel alerts us to the ephemeral nature of knowledge.

"In a world of knowledge for general consumption, yields are going to companies that can produce knowledge nonstandard."

"In all industries, there are plenty of critical knowledge that have been commoditized, and the rest will soon. What matters now is how quickly a company can generate new ideas and build new knowledge of the type that enhances customer value. "

The Green Paper describes the knowledge and the resource key raw material and process innovation explicitly states that knowledge must be prior to innovation. The view from Gary Hamel is interesting because it changes the order of factors: innovation is precisely to generate new knowledge. Knowledge is a product of innovation, not raw materials. Maybe not a final product, but product after all. However

something that lies in the Green Paper itself as between different types of knowledge, called knowledge that identifies the continuum. And indeed, in the synthesis or final definition of knowledge as a value, packaged with the learning.

Without referring specifically to innovation, not Seth Godin thinks that raw knowledge, by itself, can be considered an indispensable asset for a company or professional. This is an excerpt from his book Are you indispensable? .

"The depth of knowledge alone is not enough. The shared knowledge Wikipedia and the Internet brings us make field knowledge alone is worth significantly less today. Nowadays, if all you can offer many knowledge of those in the reference books, you're a loser, because the Internet knows more than you. "

"Depth knowledge combined with a good criterion is worth a lot. The depth of knowledge combined with diagnostic techniques or nuanced insight also worth a lot. In contrast, knowledge by itself, I find it much cheaper and faster to consult an expert on the Internet. "

E illustrates his claims with divergent paths, starting from a similar situation, followed by companies run by Rick Wagoner and Alan Mulally. The first, although a perfect knowledge of the automotive industry and the culture of General Motors, not in vain throughout his brilliant career it had developed in the company, failed to prevent their failure. Yes Alan knew how to do Mulally at Ford, even though it came from Boeing with a complete ignorance of the sector and enterprise. All knowledge of Wagoner did not help, contrary to the clear vision and leadership skills of Mulally.

The truth is that I find hard to take the knowledge and value innovation. To say that knowledge is necessary for innovation is obvious. It's like saying you need air balloons to fly. That is the key. A firm may hoard tons of knowledge, this has never been lacking in good company as always, and yet be quite conservative in culture, approach and vision. Values \u200b\u200bare what moves us to action, what we have to guide and encourage the creative and difficult process of transformation.

When Is It The Best Time To Wax Legs

A happy Collector

characters is common in sports monetize their experience in leadership and group management to provide training and advice to managers. Jorge Valdano and remember your company Make a team.

The Argentine Marcelo Bielsa, coach of Chile today is not any character. Also offers lectures to executives. Here are some pearls that I draw the column against Spain Bielsa Chilean writer Arthur Fontaine in The Country:

"I realize that I need to know Therefore, "" Instincts are as effective as the steadfast, "" not only to do what is fitting, but also giving peace of mind "," most commonly happens what we deserve, "" if not enjoy the travel, the arrival does not give pleasure, "" he did not want my players, it would be impossible to win, "" should always know what you do not know, "" the leader seeks to be interpreted more than obeyed, "" good Work is what arouses the accession ".

But in the end adds" it all just before the failure ". Not surprisingly, Bielsa is defined as a collector of failures . Although not matter much:

But success and happiness do not work as synonyms. I am a specialist in failure and know well that the adhesions are lost when you just success. There are successful people who are not happy, and happy people do not need to success. Success is an exception rather than a continuum.

The success indifference and the fatalism of Bielsa, I bring to mind the great poem by another Argentine, Jorge Luis Borges:

Knew that victory and defeat
are indifferent faces of Azar,
no other virtue than being brave
and marble, at last, be forgotten.

A linchpin talkative failures also highlights and makes the work that matters

In his post Amplifying the lizard brain , Seth Godin makes a very brief description of what you should do what he calls an axis (linchpin), an appropriate professional for these times: speak out and doing work that matters. Talk.

That is exactly what has made Luis Aragones. 've talked about what it means and what I asked to speak . Has your opinion about the approach and the development of football match played and lost to forecast the English team in their debut World Cup in South Africa. Luis is not in vain in the tournament as a commentator on Al Jazeera.

happens that Luis is the former coach and architect of the current team, his style of play and their triumphs. That is why critical opinion has bothered much to the federation and the current coaching staff. Luis Aragones has been a diplomat nor elegant, but not offensive or rude. But some media have amplified the words of Louis to challenge the current coach, without assuming the responsibility of the critic. By the way Luis has been presented as a mean and spiteful character. Perhaps

Luis I have some of this has never been an exemplary, but what has been in recent years is a technician and a brave commentator, someone who has followed his approach against all odds, as when ignored in the selection of Raul , the most influential English player of the last decade, no matter out of their comfort zone and be exposed to widespread criticism. Luis not only speaks, but also stands out and is capable of doing work that matters. A real linchpin, one of those people able to achieve things that at first many were craving utopian. As the English football team win a tournament.

Indeed. The situation of English football after this first match of the world is familiar. Top Favorites acclaimed team facing a new tournament with a different coach who led his previous wins and reap bad results in their first matches. All this happened almost a year with the English national basketball championship in Europe. And in the end won the tournament literally sweeping their opponents in successive quarters, semifinals and final.

WHAT IS THE RIGHT TO HEALTH? Analysis

The World Health Organization and the High Commissioner for Human Rights United Nations has published Sheet No. 31 on the Right to Health in order to shed light on the place now right to health in international human rights standards, taking into account the large number of initiatives and proposals for what the right to health can or should be.

The document begins by explaining what is the right to health and exposing their impact on certain individuals and groups, then pointing to the obligations of States in this area and providing an overview of the mechanisms of monitoring and accountability at national, regional and international.

The right to health is more than access to health care. Includes a wide range of factors that can contribute to a healthy life. The Committee on Economic, Social and Cultural United Nations are called "underlying determinants of health." They are:

Ø Drinking water and adequate sanitation;
or food unfit for consumption;
Ø Nutrition housing;
or working conditions and a healthy environment;
Ø Education and information on health issues;
Ø Gender Equality.

The right to health includes certain freedoms, including the right not to be subjected to medical treatment without proper consent, and not to be subjected to cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment.

The right to health in turn comprises the following rights:

Ø The right to a system of health protection that will give everyone equal opportunity to enjoy the highest attainable standard of health;
Ø Right prevention and treatment diseases, and diseases;
Ø Access to essential medicines;
Ø The maternal, child and reproductive Ø
equal and timely access to basic health services;
Ø Access to education and information on health issues;
Ø The public participation in decision-making process on issues related to the health community and national level.

should be provided services, goods and health facilities to all persons without discrimination. Non-discrimination is a fundamental principle of human rights.

All services, goods and facilities must be available, accessible, acceptable and of good quality:

Ø Each State must have available a sufficient number of facilities, goods, services and public schools health care.
Ø These centers must be physically accessible (must be to reach for all sectors of the population, especially children, adolescents, older people, people with disabilities and other vulnerable groups) as well as affordable, without discrimination. Accessibility also includes the right to seek, receive and disseminate health related information in accessible form (for all people, including people with disabilities), but without undermining the right to personal data relating to health are treated with confidentiality. Ø
facilities, goods and services also must involve respect for medical ethics and sensitivity to gender requirements, as well as culturally appropriate. Ø
Finally, they must be appropriate and of good quality from the standpoint of science and medicine. This requires, inter alia, skilled medical personnel, medicines and hospital equipment, scientifically approved and in good condition, clean water and adequate sanitation.

Health Barometer 2009 - Data de Cantabria

Most people believe that the health system works well but needs reforms

The Ministry of Health made public on May 25, 2010 data from the 2009 Health Barometer conducted by the Centre of Sociological Investigations (CIS ) in Spain on an annual basis to residents of both sexes over 18 years. This consultation seeks the views of the citizenry about the operation of public health services to certain health policy measures, as well as their knowledge and attitudes towards health problems or specific actions of the National Health System.

The data analyzed OSPC Cantabria. The percentage of citizens in Cantabria which considers the health area as the most interesting (from 28.0% in 2008 to 34.4% in 2009) over other areas such as education (24.6%), pensions (14.9%) or home (12.5%). With this increase Cantabria is above the average for Spain (29.0%) ( View report.)

celebrate the INTERNATIONAL DAY OF ACTION FOR WOMEN'S HEALTH (May 28) with a discussion forum with the public has ended Cantabrian


International Day of Action for Women's Health is commemorated every May 28 since 1987, at the request of the Global Network for Reproductive Rights and the V International Meeting Women and Health held in San José de Costa Rica, took the decision to start a sustained campaign of Action for Women's Health. This campaign keeps the purpose of reaffirming the right to health of women as a human right and to influence policy-making levels promoting changes to ensure the health of women.

This year the Ministry of Health, Directorate General of Public Health and the Public Health Observatory Cantabria commemorated the International Day of Action for Health of Women calling for women and citizens in general to Cantabria discussion about what women think about health. The results of the Survey of Health Cantabria contextualize the debate allowed on those highlights in it that we consider of interest to women and men of Cantabria.
The description of health status perceived by the population of Cantabria, according to the results of the Survey of Health opens a wide field to analyze the potential inequities that may be influenced by gender determinants in the middle physical environment in which live people of all ages, socioeconomic and educational levels.

patterns and social and cultural prototypes in terms of relationships and roles that men and women develop in everyday life have a clear impact on their health and quality of life.

The first point to note is that women Cantabria, as in other regions, have a poorer perception of health status than men, referring 78% of their health status was good or very good compared with 70% of women. The profile of a woman who lives in a small town and belongs to the most disadvantaged socioeconomic class poses a greater risk for physical and mental health. Furthermore, women suffer more chronic diseases (67% women and 55% men) and with age, a greater dependence, increasing the risk of accidents, mainly in the domestic sphere. But men have a higher level of stress at work, although not at increased risk of poor mental health.

consumption of prescription and nonprescription drugs is higher in women than in men (68% and 52% respectively) of all socioeconomic classes and educational levels, there is a tendency to increase consumption in both sexes as decreases the level of education and social class.

The gender constraints begin to be displayed in the earliest ages, highlighting the difference between boys and girls in the field of physical activity. On one side is seen as promoting more intense physical exercise in children, with girls who have higher rates of inactivity (girls 10 to 15 years have a rate of inactivity of more than twice that of children , 18% and 8% respectively). Similarly, in the use of television and video game use, computer or Internet can be seen similar differences in the behavior of children, with children in general, greater use compared to girls. A striking difference between boys and girls from 1 to 4 years and use these technologies (21% 13% of boys and girls), and in the age group 10 to 15 years in the percentage girls who do not use is 7 times higher than boys (34% and 5% respectively). Also shows the influence of socioeconomic class on the leisure habits of people under, with boys and girls from lower social classes who spend more time watching television, while the more affluent classes longer play video games, computer or Internet.

The health-related habits, such as snuff and alcohol consumption, and diet or physical activity practice have a socio-economic background can lead to a higher level of inequality in health. In their analysis evidenced a marked social gradient and gender.

34% of men and 29% of women smoke daily in Cantabria, frequencies higher than the national average of 32% of men and 22% women. Although snuff men consume more than women, a higher proportion of men than women had reduced their smoking habits in relation to smoking 2 years before (30% and 22.8% respectively). By contrast, smokers not only have not reduced their habit, but also a higher percentage of women than men has increased consumption (24.7% of women and 19.5% of men smoke more than two years ago.)

Among adults of both sexes there are significant differences related to physical exercise in leisure time. Men do more exercise than women throughout life, reaching these higher levels of physical inactivity at the age of 16 to 24 years (55% men and 34% of women of this age do some kind of physical activity in their spare time). In addition many women as men belonging to the lowest socio-economic classes and less educated are the least exercise performed.

In general, men eating worse that women have a higher incidence of overweight and obesity despite more physical activity in their free time (63% men and 44% of women were overweight or obese). It is relevant to the direct relationship of socioeconomic status as a determinant of the high rate of overweight among both women as in men, being more pronounced in the lower social classes and with lower educational level. However, overweight women less than men in all socioeconomic classes and educational levels. Also noteworthy is the greatest excess weight and obesity in people living in smaller municipalities.

In relation to home care, family and dependents are women who spend more time in all areas. It also shows a growing trend in the time spent by women the lower educational level and purchasing power. It has been observed at the same time as men have the highest percentages of no commitment to these tasks, and when they do engage in them together with others, while women assume this responsibility largely alone. Housework and child care is where women spend more on its own, 54% of women and 6% of men do unassisted household chores, while 38% of women and 1% of men take care of themselves and their own children under 15 years. Moreover, in the care of elderly and disabled, women are significantly more engaging solo, while men do so in a higher percentage of the household, and children, 54% women and 11% of men care alone to people over 74, and 39% women and 10% of men work alone to care for people with disabilities. Women therefore have a high burden of care work and home can have a negative impact on their health and able to provide an explanation for the poor perception of health of women of all ages, with the potential gradient of poorer mental health, more frequent users of health services and increased medicalization.

The crucial decision to be taken Metaposta

Last week was the company Metaposta . Metaposta is a secure mail service through which any entity can send us documentation varied as invoices, notices administrative, communications, banking and everything now a citizen receives in his mailbox, and promptly filed in a folder. It is not a metaphor, that is exactly the nature of service: Metaposta to replacing it to the folder (s) or file (s) that we all have somewhere in our house where we store the deeds or the lease of housing, income tax returns in recent years, various contracts and bills (water, electricity, gas, telecommunications, insurance, banking, etc), medical reports, etc. Opinions

bit optimistic about the future success of an initiative. Just yesterday I read a tweet critical. A popular friend and partner in a thousand battles, neither is clear. As it makes no sense today to offer disk space: does anyone and practically zero cost. The truth is that it points to one of the key features of the Internet today: the commoditization of services. Enter this battle is pointless.

But my view is wrong: Metaposta disk space does not sell, sells trust. Obviously also comfort and functionality, but the differential attribute is trust. Sell \u200b\u200bconfident that no one can access our most important documents or people besides us that we authorize, we will not lose this documentation by an accident, it will not close on any given day and goodbye to our documents, as any legal effect and legal documentation is valid and is well guarded. This last point is important, we are talking about security not only in technological terms but above all, legal.

Metaposta In this sense points to a major need in the Information Society: the transactions and make more reliable electronic content so that they have the same guarantees as their physical counterparts. This is an emerging market to be an important development to over the coming years. Generation services such as and custody of electronic evidence. There are already companies that are offered as a trusted third party, neutral testifies to electronic transactions and their content, keeping evidence with probative value for hypothetical lawsuits. However

Metaposta have to make sooner or later a critical decision that will determine whether the future will be just one more player in the increasingly competitive market confidence or aspires to become the leader of the same for many years.

Metaposta is a "safe box" that can serve as back office and even unimaginable for multiple services, different industry solutions. Metaposta provide all these services the plus technical and legal security they need. And the decision to make is whether Metaposta will try to deploy these services itself in a closed form of marketing or, by contrast, aspires to become an open platform on which anyone can build services that require that extra confidence.

words, to become the Google, eBay or Amazon in confidence. Because companies that succeed in the current Internet does not simply provide services. Many of them do not directly. They understand that they themselves will not be able to imagine and build services that can succeed in the future, the "crowd" I will always do better. What they do is to offer open platforms on which anyone can build these services. And in that base their business model.

This is the decision to make Metaposta: platform services.

The risk management culture, including legal issues

has proved a real pleasure to share with Jordi Graells hiking mountaineering, and Alberto Ortiz Iñaki Ortiz de Zárate. The pleasure was general: the company, the date, place (saw Aitzgorri), beers, ... It was a truly fun event, including in this category, the time we spend in talking about issues specific to our profession.

Jordi At one point we were asked us to do a little reflection, no more than five minutes on an item on the transformation of government. After giving a couple of laps, I took up a thread of a conversation he had shortly before and reflected on the risk. I will try to reflect the same reasoning here more than anything to continue thinking about it, display it in a more structured and expose it to debate.

remember a previous post that dealt with the generation of ideas and the need to produce a lot of bad to be any good. What happens is that we only know that an idea is good or bad once set in practice. In this sense, risk is an intrinsic component to any process of transformation / innovation.

both government as in any other organization, when we make a transformative approach, although it is only a very small scale, we found two profiles of people. On the one hand we have those who are immediately able to show in detail all kinds of barriers and risks. Then there are those that provide clues and paths to follow.

Both types of responses are necessary for proper decision-making process as it highlights a recent article in McKinsey . But to me I have no doubt that Second we provide much more than the first, if only for the spirit that comes through. Because the first condition for a change is to try.

The government is very particular subgroup within the first profile: They are those to which current legislation prevents them from doing anything that involves a minimal change on the procedures, habits and customs in force. The law is the perfect excuse to discourage any kind of transformation.

And curiously those who resort to the law are not in many cases specialist training or individuals with legal issues, such taboos, once made more or less discretion spread with surprising ease and are firmly seated in the minds of people. But even for people with legal training, there is a worrying lack of laws like the 11/2007 on electronic access to public services, which allow to do things differently with full legal protection.

addition to ignorance, one of the most common reasons to invoke the law as a brake on proposals to change is the fear of making a mistake causing the disapproval of heads, auditors, parliament and, if necessary, of divine justice. That continues to be a reluctance to abandon the personal comfort zone. The truth is that the current culture functioning of government, and generally any large organization, this behavior prompts a conservative.

is necessary to introduce a cultural change to make workers understand the administration that the law is flexible and need to find their limits to further processing. That a correction by a higher court is simply a difference of opinion. That is precisely the contrast of different views and visual what will lead to a tight turn and advanced application of the law.

needed to influence the training and continuous updating of knowledge workers and managers of public especially those who perform work for legal or related to the development and interpretation of rules, so they can adopt innovative positions, which though controversial, are strictly based on law.

But above all, it is necessary that public let their employees think sufficient autonomy to find new interpretations without the possible discrepancy with other entities is understood as an indicator of ignorance, incompetence or lack of rigor.

In short, a real change to government workers need to take the risk and responsibility as a necessary component of his work, even and especially when it comes to issues with legal implications.

strategy for making decisions based on the behavior

Very interesting article The case for behavioral strategy (for access need to register) published by McKinsey on the influence of bias and personal bias in making the business decisions. The conclusion is that we should adopt a strategy based on the behavior of people who identify and counter the biases and prejudices that influence the decision-making processes for them to be successful. In an interpretation nearest alert the danger of basing professional decisions on intuition, experience and personal convictions.

The study was based on analysis of 1,048 major corporate decisions taken within the last five years. The first and most surprising conclusion is that the process itself is crucial in order to make a decision that the preliminary diagnosis. Makes sense. A good decision-making process identifies and corrects a wrong diagnosis of the situation, but does not ensure a good diagnostic means a good decision if further processing is not correct.

Any decision process includes informal correction of certain bias, distrust in a system of those who may have an interest in the results or correct downward the figures raises a person known for his anthropological optimism. Yet empirical observation shows that these approaches are insufficient. Must start from the premise that prejudice is so firmly established that no person alone is able to escape completely from them.

most common patterns of prejudice, bias prominence (which leads us to overvalue recent events or particularly memorable) and confirmation bias (tendency to ignore evidence that refutes a hypothesis already formed). The more experienced more exposed is a manager to be a victim of their biases and prejudices. And the higher in rank and persuasive words, the greater the danger of imposing these to the rest of his staff in making the decision. A common technique to mitigate the effect of biases and prejudices is to change the point of view. May be by carrying out field studies or customer visits. Sometimes it's as simple as asking participants to do an introspective exercise explaining the reasoning and the experiences that lead them to take a particular position.

Among the behavioral traits that influence the making of incorrect decisions is too oriented to action which may lead to overly optimistic approaches taken or not deep enough. The organizations tend to opt for those who show this profile in general attach more confidence to those who show us ways forward that people who warn of the risks and barriers. However accept uncertainty and recognize the risks are prerequisites to making a good decision.

Another common trend is reversed, the tendency to stability. It occurs when we have more in mind the failures that the successes achieved, or when developing a budget, we substantiated in previous years. Given this behavior by setting goals that can act are impossible to achieve by doing things as usual. or start developing budgets from a blank sheet. Before

biases of interest, how to act is explicit in advance the situation, conditions and implications of the participants and the evaluation criteria to be adopted. Social and cultural prejudices are mitigated only variety: the lack of dissent is a strong warning signal. It is also essential to the commitment of management to maintain a real participatory process.

To adopt a strategy of behavior in decision making is necessary to follow a sequence of four stages. 1) Decide to justify decisions implement a strategy based on behavior. 2) Identify the biases that can affect the most critical decisions. 3) Select the tools and practices to address the most relevant biases. 4) Integrate the practices identified in the decision-making processes.

Abuse PowerPoint and caricatured reality

The debate on the use and abuse of PowerPoint is in the spotlight. A recent article in The New York Times about how Power Point hinders U.S. military operations him again recalled. The article has been mentioned briefly and forcefully by Seth Godin in his post "PowerPoint Makes us stupid" - these bullets can kill, and a more extensive and descriptive blog Alt1040 About the (ab) use of PowerPoint: reduced vision in a complex world .

The idea of \u200b\u200bturning the article is that PowerPoint has created a culture of synthesis, to reduce the information to a minimum, a handful of points, that the discussion of issues, critical thinking and decision- decision has been impoverished by not looking at reality as a whole with all its complegidad. As the general HRMcMaster [PowerPoint] is dangerous because it can create the illusion of understanding and the illusion of control. "

In my view, the problem lies in two vices that we have acquired to use PowerPoint. The first is that when we use it as a paper support, we intend to play slide summarized the speaker's speech. Attendees are so tempted to concentrate on reading the slides ignoring the speaker and his speech is where the nuances. A good presentation should support the speech, but never stealing role.

The second and pernicious habit is to use PowerPoint presentations and deliverables, as independent documents. And in this case two things can happen. Or that the slides are so simple that only show synthetic ideas, which we lose sight the issue in all its magnitude. Or seeking to describe in detail the issue at emulating a text document. And for this are much better text editors, both in regard to the productivity of the author, as in the final presentation of the document. Descraciadamente 2.0 tools as popular as SlideShare and the like, encourage the use of PowerPoint, thus spreading the acquisition of that bad habit.

These services are widespread even in sectors such as consulting, which are particularly dangerous because they penalize one of the core competencies of the consultant: the ability to transmit information and knowledge either in writing or orally.

fraudulent job offers

The crisis has dealt a blow to the labor market. And slash unemployment in Spain 20%. And economic forecasts are far from being optimistic in the labor field. In this situation, no wonder people are looking desperately for a job.

However, authorities warn that in recent years, and following the crisis, there have been many scams around job offers. A situation that the Attorney General's Office described as "alarming." EXPANSION offers the keys to avoid such scams, which in most cases are disguised as apparent seriousness and legality.

What are these jobs?
