The Constitutional Reform Act 2005 swept away more than a thousand years of constitutional tradition by significantly reforming the ancient office of Lord Chancellor, which straddled all three branches of government. A stated goal of this legislation was to create more favorable external perceptions of the British constitutional and justice system. But even though the enacted legislation does substantively promote this goal, both by enhancing the separation of powers and implementing new statutory safeguards for * Susanna Frederick Fischer is an Assistant Professor at the Columbus School of Law, The Catholic University of America, in Washington D.C.

  • The Mindful Physician and Pooh
    UC Irvine Journal for Learning through the Arts Title The Mindful Physician and Pooh Permalink https://escholarship.org/uc/item/2v1824q3 Journal Journal for Learning through the Arts, 9(1) Author Winter, Robin O Publication Date 2013 DOI 10.21977/D99116252 eScholarship.org Powered by the California Digital Library University of California Title: The Mindful Physician and Pooh Author: Robin O. Winter, MD, MMM, JFK Family Medicine Residency Program Abstract Resident physicians are particularly susceptible to burnout due to the stresses of residency training. They also experience the added pressures of multitasking because of the increased use of computers and mobile devices while delivering patient care. Our Family Medicine residency program addresses these problems by teaching residents about the mindful practice of medicine. We utilize A. A. Milne’s classic children’s books, Winnie-the-Pooh and The House at Pooh Corner, along with Benjamin Hoff’s The Tao of Pooh to explain Dr. Ron Epstein’s four habits of mindfulness: attentive observation, critical curiosity, beginner’s mind, and presence. We also use video clips from two Disney movies, The Many Adventures of Winnie-the-Pooh and A Day for Eeyore as well as Kenny Loggins’ song, House at Pooh Corner. With Winnie-the-Pooh’s help, residents learn how to become more mindful physicians by incorporating Epstein’s four habits of mindfulness into their daily practice.

  • Does Winnie the Pooh Have a B12 Deficiency?
    Journal of Interdisciplinary Science Topics Does Winnie the Pooh have a B12 Deficiency? Steffan Llewellyn and David McDonagh The Centre for Interdisciplinary Science, University of Leicester 14/02/2014 Abstract Decades of research studying the unique behaviour of Winnie the Pooh has provided a strong indication that a honey-specific diet could be causing a vitamin deficiency. A review is here conducted in the changes observed in the bear, and the likely cause of this behaviour. Introduction In 1958 a bear was first observed in the Hundred Acre Wood displaying anthropomorphic characteristics, including a preferred attire of a red t-shirt and significant bipedalism, which over a number decades has grown as a household name as Winnie the Pooh, or simply Pooh bear, both for its ambiguous evolutionary origin and charming personality. Despite his joyous demeanour, physiological changes have been noted throughout its lifetime, likely linked to a honey-specific diet. This has given rise to concern that vitamin deficiencies, particularly in B12, are now putting his health at risk. Highlighted here are the symptoms identified throughout the extensive period of observation recorded from 1988 to 2002, how these indicate a B12 deficiency, and the implications of this for Winnie the Pooh’s lifestyle. Patterns of Behaviour and Symptoms Issues concerning Pooh Bear were first acknowledged from an aberrant behaviour towards acquiring honey. In similar changes noted in Vulpes vulpes adapating to an urban environment, behaviour deviating from that known of the genus Ursidae has been observed. Examples of this include the invasion of Oryctolagus cuniculus burrows and the sporadic formation of temporary mutualistic relationships amongst juvenile Sus scrofa domesticus, and Equus africanus asinus in the pursuit of honey[1].
