Abstract

Objective/Scope
An approach to develop the minimum training module requirement for training providers to conduct basic onshore safety & emergency. The purpose of the training is to provide induction in basic safety and emergency awareness for personnel working at remote locations of Malaysia onshore upstream activities. Unfamiliarity to the unique nature of Malaysian tropical forest and its hazards to personnel in upstream onshore activities (exploration, drilling or production), require a specific module for basic safety training to fit with the Malaysian onshore upstream environment. The challenges in developing the minimum training module requirement includes the unavailability of requirement/guidelines/standard, training module and centers as well as governance in place to ensure sustainable implementation.

Method/Procedure/Process
A task force consist of experts was established to develop the guideline on the minimum training module. The essential elements in the minimum module includes basic onshore safety, basic jungle safety, first aid, self-rescue and basic jungle and river survival. Practical trainings of the essential elements was also designed. In collaboration with a training center, pilot study was conducted. The training center has developed the training module including the practical training based on the minimum requirement. Participants was selected to undergo trial session of the new training program. 2 trial sessions was conducted prior to finalization of the minimum training module requirement.

Result/Observation/Conclusion
PETRONAS Basic Onshore Safety & Emergency Training Module Requirements for Personnel Working at Remote Locations of Malaysia Onshore Upstream was rolled out in December. The medical fitness assessment requirements and identification of risk group that shall be required to undergo the training was also developed. Audit tools and approval system to be use in assessing potential training provider was established. A training provider has been assessed and approved as PETRONAS Basic Onshore Safety and Emergency Training Course.

Novel/Additive

<em>Biological indicators such as macro-invertebrates and water quality parameters can give an overalln overview of what is happening in a river catchment. The aim of the study was to determine the influence of anthropogenic activities on macro-invertebrates assemblage and water quality using multivariate analysis and to determine the present ecological state of the river using the Macro-Invertebrates Response Assessment index. The South African Scoring System Version 5 (SASS 5) was used to collect macro invertebrates. Water quality samples were collected using a polyethylene bottle and analysed by Mpumamanzi Laboratory in Nelspruit and Water lab in Pretoria. From the results obtained it was evident that anthropogenic activities along the Crocodile River play a role in water quality deterioration and the subsequent distribution of macro-invertebrates during high and low flow conditions. The main anthropogenic activities contribute to the influence of macro-invertebrates community and water quality are agricultural activities in the upper reaches and a combination of industrial, domestic, mining and agricultural activities in the middle and lower reaches of the Crocodile River.</em>
Re-reading the Notion of “Convergence” in Light of Recent Changes to the Culture and Communication Industries in Canada
Authors: George Éric 
Published: March 2017

Due to its multifaceted nature and its appropriation by different social actors, “convergence” is a complex concept. In the 1990s it had its heyday when there was a lot of talk about “information highways.” In this text, the author revisits convergence through an examination of recent changes to the culture and communication industries in Canada. The article reveals that convergence is always a horizon and that it includes several interrelated processes that advance slowly. In some cases, it is even possible to speak of “divergence.”

Authors: Turner Rita 
Published: March 2017

Abstract
The first half of this piece is an essay exploring environmental racism through the lens of the lead poisoning of Freddie Gray. The essay outlines some details of Gray’s lead poisoning and gives background and examples of how environmental degradation and exposure to toxins disproportionately affects people of color and the poor. The author argues that justice cannot be had while ignoring environmental racism, as unjust environmental conditions devalue Black bodies and the potential of Black and poor children worldwide. The second half of this piece contains a lesson plan for teachers to use along with this essay in high school and college classrooms. The lesson further explores definitions and examples of environmental racism, and asks students to research current cases of environmental injustice, use creative and analytical writing to reflect on what they’ve learned, and work with local community members to address an issue of environmental racism.

Background & Objectives: Older individuals often suffer from multiple systemic diseases and are particularly more vulnerable to potentially inappropriate medicine prescribing. Inappropriate medication can cause serious medical problem for the elderly. The study was conducted with objectives to determine the prevalence of potentially inappropriate medicine (PIM) prescribing in older Nepalese patients in a medicine outpatient department.Materials & Methods: A prospective observational analysis of drugs prescribed in medicine out-patient department (OPD) of a tertiary hospital of central Nepal was conducted during November 2012 to October 2013 among 869 older adults aged 65 years and above. The use of potentially inappropriate medications (PIM) in elderly patients was analysed using Beer’s Criteria updated to 2013. Results: In the 869 patients included, the average number of drugs prescribed per prescription was 5.56. The most commonly used drugs were atenolol (24.3%), amlodipine (23.16%), paracetamol (17.6%), salbutamol (15.72%) and vitamin B complex (13.26%). The total number of medications prescribed was 4833. At least one instance of PIM was experienced by approximately 26.3% of patients when evaluated using the Beers criteria. Conclusion: Potentially inappropriate medications are highly prevalent among older patients attending medical OPD and are associated with number of medications prescribed. Further research is warranted to study the impact of PIMs towards health related outcomes in these elderly.
