This paper deals with general practice consultations where there is a third party present, as a companion, to support the patient and act as a mediator between doctor and patient. Our study contrasts with most, but by no means all, of the studies on interpreting, which (1) focus on a transmission of information model in professional interpreting, (2) do not address monolingual mediated consultations where the third person is a carer and/or (3) do not address issues of trust and feelings which can characterise consultations mediated by family members. The data for this paper is drawn from a Londonbased project: Patients with Limited English and Doctors in General Practice: Educational Issues (PLEDGE). Using Goffman’s participant framework and aspects of narrative performance, we propose a cline of mediation, which can be mapped onto the structure of the clinical consultation – as evidenced through two case studies. The analysis indicates that consultations with companions that act as lay interpreters have more in common with monolingual triadic consultations than with professionally interpreted consultations. The shifts in role-relationships and alignments between the three participants subvert their official position to produce a remarkable intimacy and collaboration, while often subduing but sometimes amplifying the patient’s voice. There are implications of our findings both for family carers as mediators and for primary care health providers.

ABSTRACT This viewpoint outlines a brief history of primary care health reforms over the last 25 years, and how this history has influenced the business of caring. It also suggests where we should next look to improve the provision of equitable patient-centred care in the current climate of fiscal constraint, while meeting the challenges of an ageing population and increasing multimorbidity.

The Fonthill letter has recently been described as ‘one of the most interesting of the corpus of documents which illustrate the working of the Anglo-Saxon law’. It tells a story that is too complicated to summarize here, but the text is now readily accessible alongside a translation and wide-ranging commentary. For present purposes it may be sufficient to say that the letter was written to King Edward the Elder of Wessex (899–924) by the godfather of a troublesome character called Helmstan. The first and longest section of the letter begins with an allusion to Helmstan's theft of a belt and ends with his surrender to his godfather of five hides of land at Fonthill (Wiltshire). Helmstan gave up this land in return for his godfather's support in an oath that Helmstan had to take to defend his title to it against a third party. His godfather promised that Helmstan could continue to occupy the property for his lifetime, provided that he behaved himself. He thus held it under what was in effect a life-læn or lease. All this happened in the reign of King Alfred, some years before the letter was written. The story was told to Alfred's son and successor after the author had exchanged the Fonthill land with the bishop of Winchester and wanted the king to confirm the arrangement. The account is written in the first person but the godfather's name is not given. J. M. Kemble, however, took it that the author of the letter was a man called Ordlaf who is mentioned, in the third person, in the second section of the letter.


Generally, in cloud computing the data is outsourced to controls of third party, which may lead to issue of securitys. The data in cloud may lost because of attacks by unknown users and nodes inside the cloud .Therefore, the data within in the cloud must be kept in secured state by using different techniques .In this paper, we propose division and replication of data within in the cloud to improve optimal performance and security .In the present work we separate a file into multiple fragment sand replicate fragments on different nodes in the cloud. Each node, should store fragment only once. Therefore, no information can be get by the attacker. The node storing the fragments within the cloud are separated using a method called T-colouring, which avoids the attacker to find the location of nodes that contain related fragments. The traditional cryptographic techniques for data security are not used in this work, so that computationally expensive methodologies are reduced. The more advanced feature in this work is an automatic update of file fragments on nodes whenever any changes are done by the third person on that particular node.

Joint ownership, which is the most prevalent type of co-ownership, is regulated between Article 688 and Article 700 of Turkish Civil Code (hereinafter referred to as “TCC”). Joint ownership is the type of co-ownership, in which more than one person, whom have the same legal status, enjoy the property rights pro rate to their shares. Joint ownership, which is widely seen in theory and practice, has important legal aspects in terms of joint owners’ rights and authorities. Each joint owner of joint ownership has the same rights and authorities as any sole property owner had. The concept of share and joint owners’ power of disposition are significant issues within the Joint ownership. Joint owners have certain rights with respect to usufruct, management and protection of that property. Exploitation rights of such property are determined pro rata to shares hold by the joint owners . Specifically, there are certain limitations for joint owners in terms of the exploitation rights of that property. The right to grant exploitation in favor of third parties by joint owners limits the exploitation rights of other joint owners. Joint owners may grant easements to any third party on the property that subjected to Joint ownership. All joint owners should cast an affirmative vote so as to grant such easement. Besides this, each joint owner may establish any easement rights in favor of any third party upon its shares.Extended English summary is in the end of Full Text PDF (TURKISH) file. Özet             Birlikte mülkiyetin en yaygın türü olan paylı mülkiyet, TMK. m. 688 ve 700 arasında düzenlenmektedir. Paylı mülkiyet, aynı hukukî statüdeki birden fazla kişinin belirli bir eşyaya aynı anda payları oranında malik oldukları toplu mülkiyetin bir türüdür. Teori ve uygulamada sıklıkla karşılaşılan paylı mülkiyet birliği, sahiplerine tanıdığı hak ve yetkiler bakımından da önemlidir. Paylı mülkiyet birliğini oluşturan paydaşlardan her biri malikin sahip olduğu hak ve yükümlülüklere sahiptir. Paylı mülkiyette pay kavramı ve paydaşların pay üzerinde tasarruf yetkileri önemlidir. Paydaşların paylı mülkiyet konusu eşya üzerinde kullanma, yararlanma, yönetim yetkileri ve paylı mülkiyete konu eşyayı korumaya ilişkin yetkileri vardır. Bu yetkilerden, paydaşların yararlanma yetkileri pay oranlarına göre belirlenir. Özellikle de paydaşların paylı mülkiyet konusu eşyayı kullanma yetkilerine ilişkin kanuni ve iradi sınırlamalar bulunmaktadır. Paydaşların 3. kişileri paylı mülkiyet konusu eşyadan yararlandırma yetkisi onların eşyayı kullanma yetkisini sınırlandırmaktadır. Paydaşlar eşya üzerinde 3. kişi lehine irtifak hakkı kurabilirler. Bu durum paydaşların oybirliği ile karar almalarını gerektirir. Ayrıca her paydaş kendi payı üzerinde irtifak hakkı kurarak da 3. kişiye eşyadan yararlanma hakkı tanır.

According to the third-party doctrine, a person has no reasonable expectation of privacy in information that has been shared with others—including a bank, phone company, or credit card company. The doctrine got its start through an appeal to a locatable observer who corresponds, in literary terms, to a narrator with a limited perspective. This is the kind of perspective that courts have traditionally emphasized when explaining how to assess probable cause. The third-party doctrine turns the limited perspective into an omniscient one. The doctrine takes apparently private conduct and classifies it as public, effectively treating the perspective of the “arresting officer” as if it could encompass large quantities of information, widely distributed in space and time. The discussion here examines a recent defense of the third-party doctrine that similarly collapses the limited and omniscient viewpoints. Then, after exploring the narrative analogy by reference to literary analyses of the omniscient narrator in Victorian fiction, the discussion ends by considering the analogy in relation to contemporary modes of omniscient narration.
