Ouch Feature - PD Exhibition Hearing Voices Network: Welcome 50,000 NHS job cuts hit mental health services "We promised to reduce NHS bureaucracy and plough this money straight back into patient care, and that is exactly what we are delivering. Since May, we have 2,500 more doctors, more nurses and more midwives - and 2,000 fewer managers." But has seen figures suggesting that some of the deepest cuts will hit some of the most vulnerable people – in mental health services. In total, 6,346 jobs could be at risk across the 53 mental health trusts, with a high proportion of the jobs on the clinical, rather than management, side.

Library Keystone XL: Down the Line A Journey Along the Controversial Pipeline and Into America’s Energy FrontierBy Steven Mufson The proposed 1,700-mile Keystone XL pipeline has enflamed the bitter fight over America's energy future. But Steve Mufson, author of Keystone XL: Down the Line and a reporter at The Washington Post, suggests that the real story of the pipeline is one about American frontiers and just how far we are willing to go to feed our addiction to oil. Recounting his journey along the length of the proposed pipeline, Mufson asks readers to consider what this policy debate looks like beyond the issues of climate change, tar sands and U.S. energy trade policy. In many ways, the Keystone XL pipeline serves as a larger metaphor, Mufson argues, illuminating the vast energy infrastructure it takes to sustain the American lifestyle and the debatable choices we must make in pursuit of short-term comfort.

Portal:Logic From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia As a formal science, logic investigates and classifies the structure of statements and arguments, both through the study of formal systems of inference and through the study of arguments in natural language. The field of logic ranges from core topics such as the study of fallacies and paradoxes, to specialized analysis of reasoning using probability and to arguments involving causality. Logic is also commonly used today in argumentation theory. [1] The history of logic is the study of the development of the science of valid inference (logic). Logic was known as 'dialectic' or 'analytic' in Ancient Greece. A prolific writer, he was also a populariser of philosophy and a commentator on a large variety of topics, ranging from very serious issues to those much less so. Jump up ^ J. Purge server cache
