"Wisadom"

Trying to assist a young lady/student for the nursing career


Working through siliintellectuals.blogspot.com; wrote to http://www.hfsv.org

For a Hispanic young lady/student exploring admissions in a nursing school. Please suggest best resources and ref material--virtual and "real" for a smart decision or choice.
Thanks.

PS - General

Related to the above-mentioned blog, seeking suggestions and tips from dedicated, compassionate, wise Hispanic intellectuals for useful material from your site or other sources.
Thanks.

As a physician, I believe that symptomatic solutions, though valuable, should have a complementary and subsidiary role compared to CURATIVE measures (say, ?along Gandhian lines)

Humans! Please prevent one more monstrous bloodshed


Secretary Kerry and the Russian foreign minister Sergey Lavrov have agreed to remain in touch.

The Crimean referendum is on Sunday.

What about Ukrainian people themselves?

Should they organize peaceful marches all across their motherland to express fraternal feelings for each other?

Should they "pledge" to safeguard interests of minorities?

How can people everywhere--including Russia--join in these efforts?

Outline of a plan to search for independent "homes" for  homeless children and their families

1 Develop a practical plan and a simple campaign to implement this project

2 Find appropriate experts, orgs,  resources and volunteers

3 Develop criteria to choose the best eligible students

4 Find deserving families of such students

5 Incorporate suggestions from young people and the the homeless students themselves

6 Involve people at individual level by launching a "$1 initial pledge drive" AND
   by requesting their contribution in the form of input and non-monetary help (related to their
   eduction, expertise or experience)


The ultimate goal is for the homeless to become productive, self-dependent wage-earners plus home owners; obviously, this is the right way for their children to "overcome" homelessness
