Course details

Adult Nursing specialises in caring for and supporting vulnerable adults in a variety of settings including hospital, community and the independent and voluntary sectors.

Nursing is a challenging profession, both mentally and physically, which carries a great deal of responsibility. Adult Nurses care for people across the lifespan including young adults and others with acute and long-term illnesses. They work as part of a multi-disciplinary team alongside doctors, physiotherapists, anaesthetists, pharmacists, dieticians and many others.

This course is provides an equal balance of theory and practice learning with placements in both the hospital and community settings. We feel that immersing our students in the reality of the profession as they train better prepares them for the challenges of nursing practice upon qualification and develops highly employable, accountable nurses.

You will learn how to assess the needs of the patient, communicate effectively with professional colleagues, and provide sensitive support for the patient and their families. You will also develop leadership and management skills required to motivate and supervise others.

In year one, you will be introduced to key concepts of health and nursing practice, using a wide range of teaching and assessment modes. Theoretical learning will both inform practice and support practice based learning enhancing your understanding of professional matters.

Core Units

Foundations in Professional Practice

This unit will provide the foundation knowledge and skills required to prepare a student nurse to understand and appreciate the complexity of knowledge required in order to become a professional, accountable and competent nurse. Topics may include:

  • Working in a multidisciplinary team
  • Introduction to ethical practice
  • Reflective practice
  • Academic writing and referencing
  • Information skills.
Foundations of Knowledge and Skills for Nursing

This unit will equip you with the necessary clinical skills, numeracy skills and knowledge of anatomy and physiology to deliver safe, effective, and competent nursing. Care sessions will focus on the development of knowledge of the anatomy and physiology of the human body which would be required to explain disease processes to service users.

Nursing in a Contemporary Society

This is a health-focussed unit in which we discuss and debate issues of relevance in a contemporary society; from pregnancy to the end of life. The unit explores the factors that influence holistic health and wellbeing and how inequalities in health influence outcomes for individuals, families and society.  There is a focus on vulnerable groups and on the communication skills required to support people at different stages in the life course.

In year two, you will extend your understanding and develop a critical approach to core areas of nursing theory and practice. There will be an opportunity for students to choose an elective placement that aims to underpin wider knowledge of diversity across the health and social care spectrum.

Read more about this year of study

Core Units

Application of Knowledge and Skills for Nursing Care

Over the course of this unit you will study subjects relating to acute and chronic ongoing care. The application of communication strategies will be utilised to help you develop your self awareness and ability to deal with challenging practical situations. Nursing theory and practice will also be covered to include the politics of health and how models apply in practice. You will develop a range of key and transferable skills including problem solving and the utilisation of numeracy for practice.

Evidence for Practice

This unit will enable you to gain an understanding of nursing research and its application to practice.

You will be proficient in searching and critiquing evidence supported by an appreciation of working through the development of information and communication technology.

The unit will principally cover research methodologies, critical reading and writing, referencing and citation and the ability to source evidence to support the development and delivery of evidence based practice and how this is contextualised within current policy.

Global Nursing and Health

This unit focuses on contemporary, global challenges and opportunities for health and wellbeing, and implications for both the nursing profession and global health systems. Underpinning this is a focus on patient empowerment and the extended role of service users.

You will develop your knowledge of epidemiology, anthropology, disease processes and transition, and investigate globally important issues, including malnutrition, obesity, sanitation, poverty and mental health.

We will explore how communication and collaboration supports nurses to deliver culturally competent, patient centred care to our increasingly diverse patient populations. All students will complete a two week, self-arranged, elective placement related to health care, either within the UK or abroad, as part of this unit.

In year three, you will apply the knowledge acquisition gained from year one and two. The focus will be on developing critical, autonomous and accountable professional nurses for practice who will lead and deliver person centred evidence based care.

In year three, we create simulations of a patient’s journey from admission to discharge. Scenarios we’ve set our students in the past include major trauma management, with a patient involved in a motorbike accident who needs stabilising, emergency care with a patient who has suffered a heart attack, and ward management to show you the day in the life of a nurse working a shift on a busy ward.

Read more about this year of study

Core Units

Dimensions of Health and Nursing Practice

This unit provides you with the opportunity to analyse the evidence behind the nursing care that you deliver. By critically examining the concept of person centred care, the notion of holism will allow you to explore the impact of health breakdown on an individual and their families. Topics such as communication skills, public health, law and ethics, complex care management and collaborative working are the focus of this unit. Interactive teaching and learning strategies will allow you to develop interpersonal and clinical skills to help prepare you for clinical practice.

Integrated Study Unit

The Integrated Study Unit provides an extended opportunity to critically explore a chosen topic within healthcare practice and permits the demonstration of knowledge and skills corresponding to programme awards and their application to practice. Learning experiences will focus on the scholarly skills necessary for completion of the written dissertation component of the unit. Individual supervision from a named supervisor will support the individual student in respect of this. You will engage with lectures, workshops, tutor supervision, peer group working and independent study. Practice learning will necessitate the student to critically apply and defend evidence-based interventions in practice supported by a mentoring team and with the contribution where applicable of other healthcare professionals. You will engage in supervised learning in the practice setting and undertake mandatory and further clinical skills in the laboratory setting responding to programme awards and their application to practice.

Transition to Professional Practice

The aim of this integrated unit is to promote your transition from a nursing student to a registered mental health practitioner who is able to think critically about their practice and synthesise new ideas. The content will include selecting and developing models of care to meet patient need. For leadership and management including governance of care, the focus will be on leadership theory and its application and include integrated working.

This unit will also explore issues associated with professional development, developing autonomy and preparation for registration including supervision, preceptorship, revalidation, teaching skills and supporting learning in practice. This will relate to the experiences of newly qualified staff as well as the expectations of the ward manager role.

This unit includes the Staff Nurse Tool kit, which will be tailored to simulation of ward and community mental health environments to develop your clinical decision-making skills, resilience and confidence prior to registration.

Students can choose to purchase non-standard items such as fleeces directly from the supplier.

Launched in November, Drop Down Deals Already at Profitability

A new San Diego startup, Drop Down Deals, is launching a website today that is intended to complement the free downloadable Web browser plug-in the company officially unveiled last month.

The company has developed a clever approach to help online shoppers quickly identify and apply valid discount coupons to their purchases. In an interview a few weeks ago, CEO Aaron Mendes told me that many coupon codes available may not be valid on websites like, which attracted some 90 million unique visitors over the past year and is expected to generate $30 million in revenues this year, according to ZD Net.

“The coupons change constantly,” Mendes told me. “On any given day, there may be no coupons available for a specific site. Most coupons don’t last more than a month or so anyway. They expire and get replaced.”

Mendes says Drop Down Deals has solved this problem by developing a free plug-in that remains hidden until a user visits an online shopping site for which coupons or deals are available. Then the application opens a drop-down window on the right-hand side of the screen that shows the coupons and coupon codes available for that retailing site.

“We do it by a domain browser that automatically detects what shopping site you’re on and then shows the coupons for that site,” Mendes said. The company says the service works at more than five thousand retailers, including Wal-Mart, Target, Dell, Kohl’s, Hewlett-Packard, Travelocity, Expedia, Orbitz, Patagonia, and Ralph Lauren—and according to Mendes, “We only display coupons that are valid.”

Mendes says Drop Down Deals also enables users to apply the coupons immediately; it’s not necessary to got to a dedicated coupon site or exit the retailer’s page. “It’s a very simple tool that doesn’t bug users unless they’re shopping,” he said.

With today’s launch of a Drop Down Deals coupon site, consumers will have the choice of browsing through tens of thousands of coupons across … Next Page »

  1. h warren says:

    What I want to know is how do I get rid of that obnoxious drop down? I can’t do anything, it even interferes with my work computer!!!!

  2. dylan says:

    I downloaded this and deleted it within 10 minutes of use. It embeds advertisements on websites you visit(even facebook!) and slows down your browser. Unfortunate as this article really does make it seem like a great plug-in.

  3. mwd says:

    I want to know how to delete it too. I can’t find it in my list of programs, and if I “installed” it or downloaded it, I don’t know where. HELP! Every website hangs up as DropDownDeals hunts for coupons that I’m NOT going to use!

  4. mwd says:

    Now I know. To uninstall it, go to wherever you uninstall programs (Control Panel, and then who knows on your machine?), search for Yontoo something. UNINSTALL. With Firefox, you evidently don’t have to restart to have it stop doing the DropDownDeals thing.

  5. hwarren says:

    Oh thank god. Med is my hero!!!!!

  6. gdlooker says:

  7. whatever says:

    mwd, you rock. gdlooker you are right. what i would like to know is how this got on my system. it sure as hell never asked me.

  8. Drop Down Deals is safe and secure. It is not a virus. The plug-in is approved by McAfee Secure, Norton AntiVirus, the BBB, and If you are experiencing any difficulties with Drop Down Deals, you can visit the support page at htt:// or leave a message on the ‘contact’ page.

  9. LIZ says:

    Simple enough.

    Go to Tools>Internet Options and look under Browsing History.

    Click Delete.

    A window will open up asking you what you’d like to delete. Simply un-check everything except History and click Delete

    • Stefanie says:

      Thank You Thank You Thank You. I did not find Yontoo or Drop Down Deals in my programs to remove/uninstall. This however worked out perfect, I really didn’t think it would be gone but it is history!!!!! Everyone who is having issues with locating this file to uninstall, just do this. I use google chrome and this worked. Deleted everything except for download history!
      Liz you rock!!!

      • Stefanie says:

        Well, it worked for a while but it still keeps coming up, I have to delete the browsing history and repeat the process over and over, it will be gone for a while then it shows up again. Still no Yontoo or DropDownDeal in any of my programs to uninstall. This is a very vicious program and completely unwelcome

    • Thankyouuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!!!!!!

  10. jjf says:

    It may not be a virus, but it certainly could be called annoyware. I never asked to install it. It just showed up one day. The uninstall is very non-intuitive.

  11. Linda says:

    Really easy to remove in windows – go to start and control panel. Click on add/remove programs. Scroll down to Yontoo, click remove, and wait about a minute.
    ALL GONE!!! YEAH!!!

  12. Rosalee says:

    I have the annoying drop down thing and it only shows up on my online college site and now it preventing me from logging out. I looked in my programs and there is nothing about Yontoo anywhere. I want to contact them but iam not giving something that i think is a scam my email address someone help me get this thing off! It doesnt show up anywhere but my school site!

  13. Hi Rosalee,

    Sorry you are having trouble with the plugin. If you want to uninstall it, go to your Control Panel, Add & Remove Programs, and uninstall Drop Down Deals. If you have questions, you can contact us at

  14. Sue says:

    Thank you for instructions on how to uninstall DDD. I would enjoy the deals, but it resides over an X I need to close a webpage preview and as it does so the right side of the DDD tag is cut off, so I can click neither DDD’s X nor my window’s X. If you can fix this, like let me move it or not cut off the right edge or whatever, I will consider reinstalling DDD. Thanks again.

  15. Hi Sue,

    We would like to look more into the issue you are experiencing and provide you with a solution so that you can enjoy Drop Down Deals’ free coupons and deals. Please email and provide us with more details on the issues you are having. We would love to help you!

  16. hwarren says:

    Yeah Sue, give us your email so that we can also send you unsolicited emails about their virus-like program that you didn’t want or ask for.

  17. ashley says:

    thank u this was really helpful…i am addin this because it helped my sister

  18. Edmond Scott says:

  19. @Edmond Scott – We’re sorry you didn’t like Drop Down Deals. To disable Drop Down Deals visit and turn off Drop Down Deals. Please let us know if you have further questions and email us at

  20. S Bate says:

    Drop Down Deals is a virus that gets installed on your computer without your permission and uses your computer resources to put annoying pop up coupons in your face every minute. I know they claim not to be a virus, bla bla bla, but anything that installs itself on your computer and makes life miserable and forces you to research how to uninstall it is a virus by my definition.

  21. DDD_Support says:

    Drop Down Deals is not a virus. You can see that it is certified safe by major antivirus programs, Norton Antivirus and McAfee to name a few. The uninstall instructions are not hidden or obscure and can be found directly on our website for anyone not interested in having Drop Down Deals enabled on their computers.

    • Unimpressed says:

      Poor, poor response. It doesn’t matter how easy it is to uninstall and it doesn’t matter if it’s safe. It’s still a virus if it ends up installed on your computer via the backdoor when you didn’t ask for it. What a sad world we live in you think this is acceptable and seek to justify it. It’s offensive.

    • even following the instructions to remove it does not remove it completely. i for one am getting very irate at the rubbish it is causing on my laptop.

    • Mari Collis says:

      I don’t give a damn if it is not a virus. I want it off MY fucking computer yesterday!!

    • BULLSHIT. As per the uninstall instructions (, my Firefox (v19.0.2, Mac) does NOT show this as an installed Add-on. I can’t find it anywhere.

  22. DDD_Support … u R a VIRUS!!!!! The whole thing is BS … I dont care what Norton, McAfee and all the rest say … Can ya take a hint by reading the posts here … pretty much your company just doesnt care … I dont shop, I dont ask for coupons, etc … And drop down deals has taken over my FACEBOOK page somehow … the page I use most next to Itunes … Sorry, but just sayin’…. I really hope the tips here worked to get rid of it … I’ll go look now.

  23. Crsvirgorabbit says:

    how in the hell did i get this crap on my browser

  24. harry says:

    this program is pissing me off, iam not even american so all the coupons are useless to me to start with, i dotn even know how i got that program in the 1st place!! its just adverticement in disquise!!! whilst 99,99% of internet users wanna get rid off adverticements this company make s a program to throw even more junk at computer uses.. not very good is it!!!

  25. asdf says:

    What a piece of shit. I can’t believe this company is trying to come across as a legitimate company. Someone needs to shut it down.

  26. ME says:

    If there is something on your pc that you didn’t put yourself and is difficult to remove, IT IS A VIRUS! Get off my Facebook!

  27. PISSED OFF says:

    so EVERY ad that shoves itself into my face will result in an INVOICE to the company that sponsors it as well as dropdowndeals as I NEVER installed it and now it’s taking my time to get rid of it. Since you visit this site ddd support – this is your only notification – each infraction will result in an invoice of $5000 – as you have been notified, you will be deemed to have accepted my terms of service. Should you claim that you didn’t AGREE to this, you can now feel a bit of my pain.

  28. JANE says:

    I have a brand new windows 8 computer. If this program is a virus, then it was installed @ the factory. It is VERY irritating. I have looked for it in control panel….and it’s NOT THERE. I want it OFF!!!

  29. damm virus how dare they put this stuff out there!!

    Hi Bruce,

    It a nice glowing report you’ve written about Coupon Drop

    But to be truthful, it’s just another annoyance that somehow
    gets into people’s computers and steals their time in one of several ways:

    ·The computer slows down.

    ·The “deals” are constantly popping up whether or not I’m

    ·The software then hijacks my browser and takes me to a site
    I never intended to go.

    ·Now, in order to remove the stupid software, which I never
    wanted, I’ve got to spend my time to figure out how.

    All in all, even if I were one of the people who had
    intentionally installed the software, the couple of dollars I might save
    because of Coupon Drop Down, certainly would not be worth the time being
    wasted. This is the great hidden truth of most of these companies-they may or
    may not save you a little money, but the consumer is still paying for it with a
    ridiculous amount of wasted time.

    If the company wanted to be honest and actually provide a
    useful service to the consumer, then they would change this from a “push”
    application to a “pull”. I.E. If I’m actually shopping for something, and not
    just browsing, then there would be a button I could push to check for the best
    price and launch the program. But then again there are plenty of sites that do
    that for me anyway—they search the web, looking for a particular product and
    then list the prices from lowest to highest. In other words Coupon Drop Down is
    just another way of annoying thousands of people (and stealing their time), in
    the hopes that a tiny percentage of those will actually make a purchase.

Archive for A concise introduction to statistical inference

a concise introduction to statistical inference [book review]

Posted in Statistics with tags , , , , , , , , , , on February 16, 2017 by xi'an

[Just to warn readers and avoid emails about Xi’an plagiarising Christian!, this book was sent to me by CRC Press for a review. To be published in CHANCE.]

This is an introduction to statistical inference. And with 180 pages, it indeed is concise! I could actually stop the review at this point as a concise review of a concise introduction to statistical inference, as I do not find much originality in this introduction, intended for “mathematically sophisticated first-time student of statistics”. Although sophistication is in the eye of the sophist, of course, as this book has margin symbols in the guise of integrals to warn of section using “differential or integral calculus” and a remark that the book is still accessible without calculus… (Integral calculus as in Riemann integrals, not Lebesgue integrals, mind you!) It even includes appendices with the Greek alphabet, summation notations, and exponential/logarithms.

“In statistics we often bypass the probability model altogether and simply specify the random variable directly. In fact, there is a result (that we won’t cover in detail) that tells us that, for any random variable, we can find an appropriate probability model.” (p.17)

Given its limited mathematical requirements, the book does not get very far in the probabilistic background of statistics methods, which makes the corresponding chapter not particularly helpful as opposed to a prerequisite on probability basics. Since not much can be proven without “all that complicated stuff about for any ε>0” (p.29). And makes defining correctly notions like the Central Limit Theorem impossible. For instance, Chebychev’s inequality comes within a list of admitted results. There is no major mistake in the chapter, even though mentioning that two correlated Normal variables are jointly Normal (p.27) is inexact.

“The power of a test is the probability that you do not reject a null that is in fact correct.” (p.120)

Most of the book follows the same pattern as other textbooks at that level, covering inference on a mean and a probability, confidence intervals, hypothesis testing, p-values, and linear regression. With some words of caution about the interpretation of p-values. (And the unfortunate inversion of the interpretation of power above.) Even mentioning the Cult [of Significance] I reviewed a while ago.

Given all that, the final chapter comes as a surprise, being about Bayesian inference! Which should make me rejoice, obviously, but I remain skeptical of introducing the concept to readers with so little mathematical background. And hence a very shaky understanding of a notion like conditional distributions. (Which reminds me of repeated occurrences on X validated when newcomers hope to bypass textbooks and courses to grasp the meaning of posteriors and such. Like when asking why Bayes Theorem does not apply for expectations.) I can feel the enthusiasm of the author for this perspective and it may diffuse to some readers, but apart from being aware of the approach, I wonder how much they carry away from this brief (decent) exposure. The chapter borrows from Lee (2012, 4th edition) and from Berger (1985) for the decision-theoretic part. The limitations of the exercise are shown for hypothesis testing (or comparison) by the need to restrict the parameter space to two possible values. And for decision making. Similarly, introducing improper priors and the likelihood principle [distinguished there from the law of likelihood] is likely to get over the head of most readers and clashes with the level of the previous chapters. (And I do not think this is the most efficient way to argue in favour of a Bayesian approach to the problem of statistical inference: I have now dropped all references to the likelihood principle from my lectures. Not because of the controversy, but simply because the students do not get it.) By the end of the chapter, it is unclear a neophyte would be able to spell out how one could specify a prior for one of the problems processed in the earlier chapters. The appendix on de Finetti’s formalism on personal probabilities is very much unlikely to help in this regard. While it sounds so far beyond the level of the remainder of the book.

NVDA stands for Non-Violent Direct Action.

NVDA training is where you learn the facts and skills around arrest, such as your legal rights at the point of arrest and what the process is likely to entail.

Find out when the next NVDA training in Manchester is by visiting our events page.

Prior to the event, the group undertaking the action will discuss whether the action poses a risk of getting arrested.

If there is a risk, the action coordinator will make sure everyone taking part is informed and comfortable.

You can find more information about the legal side of things here.

Some people may be arrestable, but have boundaries in terms of what they are happy to be arrested for. This might be based on the possible sentence (e.g. someone might be happy to be arrested for an action that carries a fine, but not for one that has risk of a prison sentence) or on the nature of the action itself.

It is important to understand these boundaries before embarking on any action.

First of all, don’t panic! This is perfectly normal.

During each action, we do frequent ‘check-ins’ and we agree a clear code for someone to use if they become uncomfortable at any stage.

Generally, the wellbeing person or group co-ordinator will take responsibility for ensuring that check-ins take place during an action/protest/demonstration. You can withdraw your participation at any time.

If undertaking an arrestable action, it is important to have legal observers present.

Anyone can have legal observer training.

Find out when the next legal observer training in Manchester is by visiting our events page.

It’s important to ‘check-out’ at the end of an action.

This is a quick debrief to see how everyone is feeling and is a really important way to check whether everyone feels comfortable with the action just taken and to flag where further support may be useful.

A fuller evaluation, often done a few days later, is also a good opportunity to discuss how everything went, including how successful communication and wellbeing during the action was, as well as how smoothly the logistics ran.

Actions Checklist

A suggested checklist for planning, carrying out and following up actions.

Actions Consensus

This is the binding framework for non violent direct actions undertaken during the Extinction Rebellion campaign, outlining the movement’s international principles and values.

Actions and Logistics Manual

This manual outlines the suggested steps for visioning, preparing for, and carrying out an action, including roles for actions and a checklist of steps.

Cyber Security

Cyber security is a body of information technologies, practices and processes that are designed to protect computer systems, networks, data and programs from damage, attack and any unauthorized access. To ensure cyber security needs coordinated efforts and commitment throughout the computer information system. Cyber security has various elements that include application security, network security, information security, end-user education and disaster recovery. A primary concern for cyber security is the quick and constant nature in which cyber security is evolving. The traditional approach to cyber security has been focusing resources on the most important system components and protecting it against a well-documented significant threat. This leaves the less crucial components of the system to be unprotected and not being able to protect the less dangerous risks. Those forms of protection are a long gone and are obsolete in the current cyber environment. The field has been on the rise due to the increased reliance on computer systems in today society. Cyber security includes all the processes and methods by which computer systems equipment, information, and services are shielded from unauthorized or unintended access, destruction or any change and the process of enhancing security measures to enable data confidentiality, availability and integrity in both transit and rest.

Systems at risk of cyber attacks

Financial systems have been a subject of numerous cyber-attacks by hackers due to the potential financial gains involved in transferring money, purchasing goods without any trace and also selling hacking information on black markets. Components that are controlled by computers, for example, power grids, gas networks, telecommunication components and industrial equipment are also at a risk of attack by hackers as witnessed by “Stuxnet” worm. The aviation industry has been over-reliant on computer systems that make the industry at risk. A simple mistake like a power outage in one airport can cause attention across the world.

Impact of cyber security breaches

A cyber security breach has caused serious financial damages that even the organizations involved cannot account for specifically bot only gives an estimate value to the public. Most cyber security firms have attributed the losses to attacks by worms and virus and also to the general hostile acts. Security breaches have help organizations to come up with rational investment decisions that have assisted them to remain stable despite the attacks. Attackers’ motives have been known after such breaches which made securing the system to be much more effective and cheaper. It makes technologists to seal even the slightest loophole that can lead to a security breach.

Elks Most Valuable Student Scholarship: My parents were willing to pay for my college education, but they told me that if I got college paid for, they would buy me a car instead.

PAS Pottery

And this from Patricia

Bonsai Eejit

At Burrs last Sunday (has it really been a full week?) I had the pleasure of meeting Patricia from PAS Pottery who had an amazing collection of shohin and accent pots for sale.

These pots where made in Shigaraki in Japan where she spent 4 months learning some new ceramic techniques. We had a good chat about some of the techniques she used in creating her pots and her passion for ceramics was clear to see. These are a few of the photos that I took. I even managed to buy a pot for a shohin Juniper I have. I deliberated for ages about the size as she had a slightly bigger one there. I opted for the smaller pot, and you guessed it, it’s too small!! Always good to have the tree with you 🙂

Here’s a few more from Patricia’s Site. Also follow her on Facebook .

This is a really shitty way to think about life. It is simplistic, not very nuanced, and comes across from seemingly most basal and useless part of the mind. But it is me and it is a thing. Should I edit that sort of thing out of this site? No. Or Yes. But no.

I have a lot of experience with selfishness. I am selfish. I am not afraid to admit this. I think about it a lot—and by “thinking about it” I mean I try to find reasons I should not be selfish because that part of me that exists outside my real life experiences, that part of me that reads the rules of life from a book… that moral compass tells me to see the wrong in my ways.

But I don’t listen, often.

I am selfish. I need to be selfish. I rarely use this site beyond its intended purpose—to discuss OCD and mental disorders. However, selfishness is a part of OCD, but I hesitate to surmise that the selfishness that I feel right now has anything to do with OCD or my mental disorders. Selfishness, in various types, has been a thread throughout many of the articles I’ve written. It is a symptom or byproduct of OCD. I obsess in so many ways—and I obsess over things related to only me. That’s OCD selfishness.

I want to talk about a different kind of selfishness.

I want more. I want more money, I want more power over my life. I don’t want stuff—I rarely see material goods over a few bucks that make me happy. I have OCD—things like shelves and office products, no matter how cliché, do actually excite me. But I don’t even want money to buy more of that. I practice a form of minimalism that is beyond the scope of this article.

I want money because I want a safety net and because money can shield me from a lot of the bullshit of the world outside my brain. I guess we are circling around the idea of mental disorders and OCD after all—I want to spend time with those things. To solve them, or at least to gather the best from them. I need to do this free of anxiety. Does money buy happiness or at least relief from anxiety? Yes. If done correctly. A lot of people with money don’t do things correctly. I’m pretty damn sure I do things correctly, especially now with all of my myriad life experiences with money (I’ve had access to a lot, as well I’ve had almost zero with no help at various times. I’ve lived life, almost all places within.

Except having anxiety-goes-away money.

I am out to get it. I am selfish in that way, I have actively decided to be such and to seek such.

Where does this selfishness truly come from? We live in a world of terrible inequality. I suffer from inequality because I’ve gone about my financial life differently than others, and no actuary is going to see that. And at the same time I am a White Male American, so I’ve seen how unequal things are for me and against people of other genders, races, and nationalities. It is all bad. I don’t care if I happen to have a little more baked-in privilege—I am still treated unfairly when it comes to money. I know this because I know what I should be worth.

Sure, you can stop any time if this getting too insane sounding. I’m still going.

If this world is going to be absolutely wrong in how it spreads money around, then I’m going to go on a mission to be a part of the end that has a lot. No, I am not going to actively screw anyone over to get what I want. But I really, deep down, don’t care if it creates more inequality.

I’m going to do this through hard work. I already put in sixteen hours a day of work on a regular basis, and all with the goal of money. I’m going to fight this.

I’ve fought with more banks that I imagined there are banks at this point. I am denied access to certain mechanisms of money (credit, loans) because I’ve gone through some terrible shit in my life and have had more Sophie’s choices forced upon me than the average person. Or below average person. Or many people.

I don’t need to get into the stories, I prefer to leave those locked up inside or at times between me and those extremely close to me. Point is, it has happened. It is a real, human thing. I have never been a deadbeat in any sense of the word, even using the word seems to sully this entire article1.

The point is I’ve worked for years to go from having nothing to building a whole life back together. Except this time not taking on dead weight, and this time paying attention to—at least paying attention, if not doing a massive amount of work attempting to solve—my mental health issues.

That doesn’t come down to a number.

I’ve never quite gone into this part of my life. I don’t intend to much. I will just say I have worked insane hours, taken on an insane number of jobs at once, all to make things better for myself.

Now is the time I start taking it. All of it I can. Legally, but by any means within that framework. Things are already unequal for me. And they are much more unequal for others. I don’t care.

I’m going to die someday. I will insist upon a safety net of my own taking and building until that time.

1 But I’m keeping the word in there regardless.  [BACK]

Pioneer Notes and Memorial Sketches for the Month of November, 1884.

Memorial Sketches.

Nicholas Ramey, John Colville and Wayne McCaddon, were well known residents of Licking county, Ohio, who, many years ago, long before the “Great Rebellion,” removed to Iowa, and settled themselves for the remainder of their lives in that thrifty and rapidly growing young State of the Great West. Early in the was the General Government established a rebel prison on Rock Island, in the Mississippi river, on the eastern borders of Iowa, and devolved the duty on that State to furnish a regiment of soldiers to perform guard duty in said prison.

Governor Kirkwood deemed it proper to enlist men for that service who were too old to perform active military duty at the front, and thereby save his young men for the field. He accordingly organized the celebrated “gray-beard regiment,” composed of old men who had passed the military age and mustered them into the service to perform guard duty as above indicated, during the war. The three old citizens of this county above named were volunteer soldiers of this regiment, and served until the war closed. The first named (Mr. Ramey) died early in 1882, aged 90 years, and a notice of him appeared in our memorial sketches for the month of March of said year.

Mr. John Colville, the second of this trio of gray-beard patriots, died December 6th, 1882, aged 86, as appears from our memorial sketches for said month and year. And now we have information recently obtained, of the death of the last named of these veteran Union soldiers, (Wayne McCadden) who died at his residence in Dexter, Dallas county, Iowa, at the ripe age of 77 years. He was the youngest son of Mr. John McCaddon, who, in his youth, was a soldier under General George Rogers Clark, in an expedition against the Shawnee Indians on the Mad River, in 1780, having enlisted under that gallant leader at the Falls of the Ohio. He was subsequently a pioneer settler in Newark, where he for many years conducted a tannery, his son the subject of this sketch, being his partner in said business.

Previous to embarking as the active partner with his father, in 1826, Wayne McCaddon was a clerk in the store of his brother-in-law, Mr. George Baker, who is still remembered by a few of our citizens, as one of the pioneer merchants and produce dealers of Newark. The introduction of his elegant and accomplished bride to the young society of Newark was one of the social events of 1830. The youthful Kentucky stranger-bride of more that fifty years ago, we learn, is still living in her Iowa home, now in dignified, venerated, matronly widowhood. Wayne McCaddon was one of the deputy marshals engaged in taking the census in a part of Licking county in 1840, and not long after that year he permanently located in Iowa. His ailment, which was of a cancerous nature, was painful and protracted.

A number of his children, as well as his aged life partner, survive him.

As will be observed Wayne McCaddon inherited a propensity for soldiering from his patriotic father, and as much may be said of John Colville, who was intuitively heroic, for his father and three brothers actively participated in our last war with England.

And it may be remarked in this parting tribute to these three old-time soldier friends, volunteers in the “gray-beard regiment, of Iowa,” that Nicholas Ramey, who was a native of France, probably also inherited military proclivities, for while a young man he was a soldier in the armies of the great Napoleon, serving with the French army in the campaign in Spain and elsewhere.

Wayne McCaddon’s father reached the age of 90 years, and his mother was not much younger at her death. And of a large family of sons and daughters nearly all attained to a great age, several of whom that are still living have long since been octogenarians, and one, (Mrs. Baker) is nearly as old as her father was at his death. They were probably the most long-lived family, consisting of so large a number of persons, that ever lived in Licking county. Of the five surviving members of this pioneer family the youngest is now seventy-four years old.

Wayne McCaddon and the writer were associates, friends, and companions more than fifty years ago. We were jointly engaged in the performance of some small official duties, too, in 1840, such as enumerating the inhabitants of a portion of our county, by authority of Congress. Soon after that we parted; our almost daily intercourse was suddenly terminated — he seeking a home towards the setting sun, and I remaining as hitherto a sojourner here. We recall but one visit from him after leaving here, and that was a generation ago. A score or more of his old friends, on that occasion, by way of a testimonial of their personal regard tendered him a supper at the American House, Smith & Moody being the proprietors. That evening’s entertainment and services were characterized by hilarity, good cheer and kindly feeling. It was marked by the enjoyment and expression of a degree of good will and fraternity seldom witnessed; indeed it was one of those jestive occasions the recollection of which would long have a lodgement in the memory, serve as a land-mark along life’s journey, and be held in retrospection as an oasis in a barren, dreary waste. Benjamin Briggs, Jonathan Taylor, James Parker, B.B. Taylor, John Lanceford, Lucius Case, Wm. P. Morrison, A.W. Dennis and others were participants in these exercises and festivities, and all of them (except the last named and the writer) preceded our friend McCaddon to “the realms beyond.” Many friends and relatives of the deceased tender their warmest sympathies to the members of the bereaved family.

Mrs. Baker’s Death.

After the foregoing notice of Wayne McCaddon was written, information of he decease of his oldest sister, Mrs. Nancy Baker, was received. She had been living with one of her sisters in Canton, Ohio, for many years, and died there November 18, 1884 at the ripe age of 90 years, 6 months and some days. Mr. George Baker, her husband, was a widely known merchant of Newark, who died here about 40 years ago, and Mrs. Baker did not live here long after that. She was the oldest daughter of John McCaddon, and Wayne McCaddon was her youngest brother. Mr. and Mrs. Baker are often mentioned in terms of commendation in Newark church circles, because of their generous contributions to Trinity Episcopal Church, which Mr. Baker was chiefly instrumental in erecting.

Iowa Letter.
OSKALOOSA, IOWA, March 10, 1882.

EDITOR ADVOCATE — On the 6th of this month, Nicholas Ramey, a former resident of your county, died at Kirkville, a small town fourteen miles south of here, at the age of 90 years. He was a native of France and a veteran of the wars. Mr. Ramey was a lieutenant in the Grand Army under Napoleon; was captured at Salamanca, Spain, and while he was being transported on a British vessel bound for London, assisted in a mutiny, which was successful, and made his escape to America. He became a soldier of the Republic in the was of 1812. He also served during the war of the late rebellion as principal musician of the 37th Iowa (Graybeard) regiment. The pioneers of Licking will remember him as the great admirer of Napoleon. He organized a company at Newark, headed, I believe, by Moody Smith and went with them to Gibralter, to recover treasures hidden there by his great commander. When the writer was a small boy, Mr. Ramey lived close to Newark on the farm of S.D. King, on the road leading from there to Granville. He has children and grand-children residing in our city and county. Mrs. Anderson, of Chatham, was one of his daughters. He was totally blind before he died. He was buried with Masonic honors on the 8th inst.

Mr. Colville was one of our early settlers and a long time resident of this county. He was a son of Major Colville, born in the Shenandoah Valley, Virginia, September 5, 1797, and settled in Licking county in 1824. The subject of this sketch was the youngest of four sons, and his father and three brothers rendered service in the war of 1812, he being too young to “go a soldiering.” His father was a major, and his brother Samuel was a captain, while his brothers Robert and James were in the ranks, and all served during the war.

John Colville in 1828, united in marriage with Eliza Turner, who died in 1841, he surviving her 41 years. He removed to Iowa many years ago, and died at the residence of his nephew, D.H. Colville, near Oscaloosa, Mahaska county, in said State, December 6, 1882, in the 86th year of his age. The Colville family was of Scotch-Irish ancestry, long-lived, vigorous, patriotic.

So patriotic was John that upon the call of his country during the late rebellion, though 65 years old, he (in company with Nicholas Ramy and Wayne McCaddon, both former venerable citizens of Licking county,) enlisted in the celebrated gray-beard regiment of Iowa, and served to the close of the war. His devotion to his country and military services probably led to impaired vision while on duty, which gradually grew more dim with advancing years, so that he endured total blindness during the last four years of his life, but a beneficent government smoothed his pathway to the tomb by granting him a liberal pension.

Death of a Former Resident of Licking County.

Mr. John Colville, Sr., formerly of this county, died at the residence of O.H. Colville, in Oskaloosa, Iowa, on Wednesday, Dec. 6, aged 84 years, two months and three days. He was buried at the old cemetery at Oskaloosa.

Mr. Colville removed from Virginia to Licking county, in 1825, where he remained until 1854, when he removed to Mahaska county, Iowa, where he has ever since resided. For the past two or three years he has been entirely blind. It will be with feeling of regret that his many friends in Licking county will learn of his demise.

Included in our memorial sketches for November 1884, were two members of the numerous and long-lived John McCadden family, early and for many years well known people in Newark, of respectability and character. Mr. Wayne McCadden [McCaddon] and his sister Mrs. George Baker, were those of whose decease we made mention then. Another of those aged people has since died, one of the eldest born. Mrs. Elizabeth Cocke was long a resident of Canton, Ohio, where her husband, who was a prominent man, died some years ago. Mrs. Cocke died in that city, January 28, 1885, at the advanced age of 84 years and six months. Mrs. VanHorn, of Zanesville, and Mrs. Marvin, of Newark, are two of her surviving sisters.

Mr. John McCadden there father, who long since deceased, was one of the veterans of our revolutionary war, and was personally identified with Indian warfare on Ohio soil long before the establishment of civil government here serving in the army of Gen. George Rogers Clark on that famous expedition to the Indian towns on the Mad river in 1780. A letter now before me written by the father of the deceased in 1842, when he was eighty-five years of age, gives interesting details of the expedition commanded by Gen. George Rogers Clark, in 1780, of which he was a member, having enlisted in it at the Falls of the Ohio, when he was twenty-three years old. His letter also tells how he was detailed as one of the men that stood guard in protecting those who were at work upon the block house built where Cincinnati now stands, and which was the first structure ever erected upon the site of that city, it being some years before Fort Washington was built.
