    For Chinese wanting to work as nurses in the United Sates, the arrival of the test of the Commission on Graduates of Foreign Nursing Schools (CGFNS) may be a welcome move.
    The CGFNS has a certification programme for people wanting to work as registered nurses in the US. The first CGFNS test in China is to be held in Beijing in July. Registrations is open till April 9. According to US labour law, nurses have to pass the National Council License Examination for Registered Nurses (NCLEX-RN) before they can practise. However, the NCLEX-RN is only useful in the US, making it difficult for people from other countries to get in. But, the US expects a shortage of 50,000 nurses by 2010. So, the CGFNS has not replaced the NCLEX-RN, which is still needed for work as a registered nurse in the US.
    So what exactly does CGFNS do?
    First of all, it helps international nurses qualify for a work visa for the US. Nurses educated abroad who do not have a US license by the NCLEX-RN, must get the CGFNS certificate. “But not everyone who gets a CGFNS certificate can get a work visa. There are many requirements for a visa, and the CGFNS is just one,” said John Ratigan, immigration officer for the CGFNS.
    The certificate helps applicants meet requirements for the NCLEX-RN. Forty-two states require a CGFNS certificate from nurses educated abroad before taking the NCLEX-RN examination.
    About 85 percent of those who passed the CGFNS have passed the NCLEX-RN. According to Barbara Michols, chief executive officer of CGFNS, “the CGFNS is cost-efficient for the Chinese. If they can’t pass the CGFNS here in China, their chances of passing the NCLEX-RN for the US are tiny. This saves time and money on visa applications and the long trip. ” In a word, to get a CGFNS certificate, a person must have: a credentials review, the CGFNS qualifying exam of nursing knowledge and an English language proficiency exam.

         Ever felt like destroying the car in front of you when you're
    stuck in an endless traffic jam?
         Well ,the Spanish company StopStress is offering clients(客户 )
    the possibility of doing just that-but in controlled ,safe conditions.
         Clients can also destroy computers, mobile phones and TV sets
    in what the company calls" destructible therapy" ( therapy : treatment
    of a medical disorder).
         "We target the machines that cause the most stress in modern
    life,"company co-founder Jorge Arribas said in a telephone inter-
    view. "People get rid of stress by screaming and beating the ma-
    chines until they are tired out. "he explained.
         The company, based in the northern Spanish city of Soria, uses
    deserted cars that still work. Heavy-metal music is used to excite
    the clients. They are given protective suits and glasses, helmets and
    huge hammers.
         Most people's rage only lasts for 5 to 10 minutes. But some go
    on for hours : they beat cars on which they've put the names of people
    or ideas they would like to get rid of.
         "Some even get together to turn the car over, "Arribas says. A
    session costs 60 euros(US $80)per person.
         Arribas says the idea came to him when he was having trouble
    parking his car.
         "Dozens of people have used the therapy, which helps people
    become aware of their stress level and helps them to slow down,"
    Arribas explained.
         "It's better to channel violence in a controlled way than to get
    it out on one's husband and wife or in a traffic jam. "he added.
         StopStress already has branches in three Spanish cities, and is
    planning to extend its market beyond Spain's borders.
