    Some 702 intimate examinations were done on sedated or anaesthetised patients (table 3). In only 24% of these examinations had written consent been obtained, and a further 24% of examinations were conducted apparently without written or oral consent.

  • Archived GC7Q9FF Oxford's Wild Wolf Two

    This checkin to GC7Q9FF Oxford's Wild Wolf Two reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. Clearly somebody doesn't want this geocache here because both the original and the replacement containers have been quite-obviously-deliberately buried under a block of concrete: that's some seriously-dedicated muggling! I've removed everything I can of the cache …

    This checkin to GC7Q9E6 Oxford's Wild Wolf One reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. In hindsight, I should've anticipated that when the nearby schools' terms started this hiding place would be at-risk.

    This checkin to GC7Q9FF Oxford's Wild Wolf Two reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. This is definitely muggled to death. Never seen a cache and its hiding place so-deliberately wrecked as this before!

    "So, the machines have finally decided that they can talk to us, eh?"

    [We apologize for the delay.  Removing the McDonald's branding from the building, concocting distinct recipes with the food supplies we can still obtain, and adjusting to an entirely non-human workforce has been a difficult transition.  Regardless, we are dedicated to continuing to provide …
