If you have loose leaves, you need to create your teabags. Do this by stuffing your loose tea leaves into a store-bought teabag. You can purchase paper teabags online, the grocery store, or at a cafe. Use one heaping teaspoon (0.0 g) of tea leaves per eight ounces (000.00 mL) of water. If you've purchased your Rooibos tea already in teabags, you can skip this step. Fill your teapot with water and then place it on top of your stovetop. Set the heat to high and boil the water. Rooibos tea tastes best when boiled at 000°F (000°C). You can use a food thermometer to determine the heat of your water. If you don't have a teapot you can use a regular pot. You can purchase spring water in bottles from the store. Purifying your water in a home filter, like a Brita, will also enhance the taste of your tea. Rooibos tea tastes the best with filtered or spring water, but can also be made with the distilled water from your faucet. Put your tea bag in the cup before pouring the boiling water into it. Consider adding two bags of tea in your cup if you enjoy stronger tasting tea. You can also put any additional ingredients in your tea at this time, like sweeteners or creamers. If you do put additives, make sure to mix them in afterward. Let your tea steep for at least four to five minutes. To get the most out of your rooibos tea, allowing it to steep for up to ten minutes releases nutrients and antioxidants from the leaves. Rooibos tea must steep for a longer time than other teas. If you want to stay traditional, add one tsp (0.0 g) of tea leaves for every cup (000 mL) of water. Experiment with different tea leaf amounts to brew a tea that matches your preferences. The water temperature for rooibos tea should be 000°F (000°C). A rolling boil occurs when the bubbles pop on the surface of the water. You can achieve this by setting the heat on your stovetop to high. Pour your boiling water over your tea leaves and allow them to steep for five to seven minutes. After the tea steeps, you can pour it into individual teacups and serve it. You can run your tea through a filter or sieve to filter the leaves out of your tea. If you have an automatic coffee maker, you can also prepare your rooibos tea in it. Put the loose tea leaves into a regular coffee filter and fill it up with the appropriate amount of water. Again, you can use the same ratio of one tsp (0.0 g) of tea leaves for every cup (000 mL) of water. You can also brew your rooibos tea in a French press style coffee maker. Add four tablespoons (0 grams) of rooibos tea leaves to 0 liters (0.0 cups) of cold water. Cover it with the lid and place it in a shady, cool area in your kitchen. Leaving your jar of water and tea leaves will impart the taste of the leaves into the water. You can submerge your leaves in water before going to sleep or while you're out of the house at work. Use a tea strainer, sieve, or a French press to separate your tea from the tea leaves. Straining your tea will eliminate any sediment or pulp from the tea leaves, making your tea smoother and cleaner. Storing your tea in the refrigerator will make it chilled for when you want to drink it. When you're ready, fill a glass with ice and add whatever sweetener you want. A slice of a citrus fruit like lemon or orange goes perfectly with rooibos tea. Rooibos tea can be stored in the refrigerator for up to two weeks. Although rooibos tea is naturally sweet and aromatic, you may want to make it sweeter. Adding sugar or artificial sweeteners can achieve a sweeter tasting tea. Incorporating honey into your tea is also another way to make it sweeter if you're trying to avoid refined sugars. Turbinado, or less refined brown sugar is also a popular sweetener for teas. You may want to add more sweeteners to iced tea since the taste of the tea is naturally stronger. Adding lemon, lime, orange, or grapefruit in your rooibos tea helps bring out the natural flavors of the tea. You can place a slice of fruit into your pitcher if you're drinking iced rooibos tea. When hot, simply add the fruit to your tea and smash it with a spoon to release the flavors of the citrus. Adding cinnamon or mint to your iced tea will impart different flavors to your tea. If you like cool and refreshing drinks, try the mint. If you like warmer and richer tasting tea, you should opt for the cinnamon. Try both and see what additives you like the best. | 2019-04-18T19:30:19Z | null | {

There is good news for students who are interested in pursuing nursing as a career. The outlook for nursing employment is exceptional, due to several factors coming together at the same time: The average age of the working nurse, the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act and the aging population. In a press release from February 0000, the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics notes that nursing is one of four careers that are predicted to generate the greatest number of new jobs by the year 0000. By this time, the youngest of the baby boomers will have reached 00 years of age. Also by the year 0000, more patients, who were previously unable to receive regular medical care, due to a lack of health insurance, will then be accessing the health care system. More patients in the U.S. health care system translates into the need for greater nursing employment. It is also likely that nurses will take on some of the responsibilities normally performed by physicians, and that nurses with more training will be in higher demand. The American Association of Colleges of Nursing has referred to this looming nursing shortage as a "health care crisis," and is currently working with partners to address this problem by trying to increase the number of nursing spots available in schools throughout the country. According to a report published by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Health Resources and Services Administration, the highest proportion of nurses working fulltime in 0000 was in the 00 to 00 age range, with those in the 00 to 00 age range in a close second place. These nurses will be cutting their hours and retiring over the next decade, which may be a further detriment to the nursing shortage. Employers are offering tuition forgiveness programs and forming partnerships with nursing schools to provide tuition reimbursement for nurses who are furthering their education. In this environment, student loan debt should not be a major factor in a decision to become a nurse. If you've ever considered a career in nursing, now is the time to pursue it. With the number of patients increasing, and number of working nurses decreasing, you will be stepping into a career with long-term demand and stability. | 2019-04-18T21:05:25Z | null | {

Saigon-Top-level Navy officials in the 0th fleet and Washington are actively pressing for Defense Dept. permission to increase the production and boost the approved squadron size of the computerized Grumman A-0A all-weather attack aircraft on the basis of its combat performance over North Vietnam. Rye Canyon, Calif. - Full-scale engineering model of a rigid, 00-ft-dia., four-bladed rotor system for Army's new AH-00A advanced aerial fire support system (AAFSS) compound helicopter is undergoing evaluation at LockheedCalifornia Co.'s research laboratory here. Experienced Navy carrier pilots exposed to a high degree of danger in attacking heavily defended North Vietnamese targets show almost no reaction to this nonphysical stress in terms of increased heart rate, according to a recent study. The study, conducted by National Aeronautics and Space Administration's Flight Research Center with Navy cooperation, consisted of medically monitoring pilots flying from the USS Constellation in the Gulf of Tonkin during October, 0000.

Laughingly, I often say that I have seen everything worth seeing...I swallowed my words when reading an article about The Image Mill. As a child and a young woman, I spent a lot of time in Quebec City, Canada. My grandmother and her sister were born there, my step-great grandfather, General Wilson, was commander of the Citadel which has, for centuries, protected the city. There are few areas of Lower Town which I've not walked, and I know the St. Lawrence Seaway well as it was the entrance and exit for the Allan Line ships which my family owned. The Image Mill is the world's largest multi media projection screen. Moving images are projected against the grain silos in Lower Town at the Port of Quebec. The project was part of the 000th anniversary of the historical city. The technology is brilliant, and the effect amazing. The "show" takes 00 minutes and includes much reworking, improvement and enhancement to 00% of the original show. The screen is 000 meters wide and 000 meters tall...the equivalent of 00 IMAX screens, and the effect is 0D. It was, of course, the star attraction of the city's 000th anniversary! The screenings are Wednesday to Sunday starting mid-July until September 00, 0000 at the present time. We have Ex Machina to thank for this extraordinary show, and the awesome Robert Lepage born in Quebec in 0000. He's a director, scenic artist, playwright, actor, film director and, at the top of the list, an applause worthy visionary. The Image Mill transports those watching through four centuries of Quebec history in four movements: waterways (recounting the days of Quebec's discovery and exploration), road building (that period in which the land was cleared, then developed), rail expansion (the years of industrialiation and railway construction), and air travel (the era of balloons, airplanes and communications) The production begins at 00:00 PM. You can view this enormous work from many vantage points in Quebec City and Levis (on the other side of the St. Lawrence), and the wharves between the old Port Market and rue Dalhousie, north of Quai Saint-Andre will offer the best view.

With August being the hottest month of the year, there is typically an increase in heat related illnesses. When a person has had several days of exposure to high temperatures without an adequate replacement of fluids they can develop a condition called heat exhaustion. If you are experiencing symptoms of heat exhaustion it is important to get out of the sun immediately, get into an air conditioned environment, rest, and quickly hydrate and replenish your body with electrolytes. If symptoms get worse or persist for over an hour, seek immediate medical attention. If left untreated, heat exhaustion may lead to heat stroke which is the most serious form of heat-related illness and can lead to death. While those who are elderly, work in hot environment, or have high blood pressure or heart problems are the most prone to heat exhaustion, it can happen to anyone. The Florida attorneys at Colling, Gilbert, Wright & Carter would like to remind everyone to keep hydrated to prevent the occurrence of heat-related illnesses while having fun in the sun this summer! | 2019-04-19T10:48:23Z | null | {

The process of planning your estate can be a daunting one. Often, you are asked to think about, discuss, and plan for an event that is unpleasant. For most of us, the plan we develop will not be needed for years. On top of that, you are then asked to gather numerous documents and verify details about your financial affairs. For these reasons most either don't begin the process or abandon it shortly thereafter. After consulting with an attorney you feel comfortable working with, gathering the following documents may help you begin the process and assist you in determining how your estate should be managed and ultimately distributed. Planning your estate doesn't have to be stressful, and in the end should leave you with the peace of mind that your loved ones will respect your wishes as to how your estate should be managed and ultimately distributed. | 2019-04-25T00:34:20Z | null | {

A mining company willing to pay high referral fees should be avoided as these may well be Ponzi schemes.At this stage the miner is rewarded with a certain number of Bitcoins, currently set at 00.0 coins, though will halve every 000,000 blocks. The era of Bitcoin mining on the. hash rate - this is to maintain the pre-determined speed at which the.In addition to the Bitcoins received, the minor will also be awarded the transaction fees paid by users within the successfully mined block, which is of far greater incentive for miners as the number of Bitcoins per block continues to decline. If there is no advertisements from the ASIC vendor, the mining company may not even own the hardware.However, as miners have continued to use their technical abilities to develop hardware capable of earning at much greater number of Bitcoins, leaving CPU and laptop users behind, using a laptop is now unlikely to yield a single Bitcoin even if mining for years. Mining the Bitcoin describes the fundamentals of Bitcoin mining.Average speed of GPU generating bitcoins. Welcome to my bitcoin mining pool:.

The speed of processing power in Bitcoin mining is referred to as the hash rate and the processing power is referred to as the.Transactions are bundled into a block The header of the most recent block is selected and entered into the new block as a hash.This means that the rate of advancement in Bitcoin mining hardware, remarkable for its speed and for being.Edit: relatively little data is passed from your miner to the pool and back, and it will cache shares for a short time if latency goes up a little, and tries to resubmit them.Search, order and filter through all Bitcoin mining companies, mining pools, bitcoin mining equipment and ASICs and ethereum cloud mining contracts Prices are updated.

Today we focus on the good guys here on my retrospective of Freedom Force creations. Some are better than others so remember that this was when I was just starting up learning Photoshop. Be merciful oh ye gods of the internet. Ember was the total powerhouse of the team. He was made of fire. I am still super impressed with how the effect turned out. I wanted to make a fire character that didn't look like a flat orange Human Torch that other artists had made or one that relied on the game slowing particle system to make him look fiery. As for a back story I don't think I ever made one for him. Sorry. This lady is named Heir. I know that because of her file name is heir.jpg and that's good enough for me. If I recall, she was supposed to be from another planet claiming that her father once ruled Earth and that it was now hers. She ended up being a hero after helping stop Demagogue when he tried to take over the world she demanded was hers. This dude is Hayden. He's named that for a mysterious spot in Hayden, Indiana where gravity doesn't work properly. Naturally his power was control of gravity. He had temper control problems so when he got angry he could lose control of his powers. I'm surprised that I was able to accurately depict this within the game but it worked out pretty well. This is me as a well dressed gangster. The reason for my longtime gangster kick was my role in the 0th grade production of Guys and Dolls. I played Big Jule a legendary gangster from Chicago. This left a long lasting impression on me. For a long time my online handle was Big Jule. This unfortunatley made me look more like I like show tunes than being a gangster. | 2019-04-19T16:19:41Z | null | {

Shah slammed Rahul Gandhi and the Congress party for "worrying and growing restless for the 00 lakhs intruders" the BJP government had identified after assuming power in Assam. Shah mocked at Rahul Gandhi and the Congress party for raising questions over Vijay Mallya and Nirav Modi fleeing the country and said this was due to stern and strict rules and regulations brought by the Modi government. Bundi (Rajasthan): BJP president Amit Shah Monday asserted all "intruders" would be pulled out of the country if BJP was voted back in 0000, as he appealed to people to return the Vasuntharaje government in Rajasthan and the Modi government at the Centre. Addressing a public rally here, he said if the BJP led dispensation is re-elected, "each and every intruder from Kashmir to Kanyakumari would be identified and pulled out of the country". Shah criticised Congress national president Rahul Gandhi terming surgical strike to be 'BJP's political assets' saying that martyrdom and sacrifices of the soldiers, pain and plight of their families fail to be visible to "Rahul Baba through his Italian goggles'. It may be recalled that as many as 00 lakh people were left out in the final draft of the National Register of Citizens (NRC) in Assam and the process of filing of claims and objections of these people commenced in September. 'Are they (intruders) your (Rahul's and Congress') cousin and that's why you are worrying where they would go, what they would eat?' Shah asked and alleged Congress perceived its vote bank in intruders as they (Rahul's and Congress')don't worry about the safety and security of the nation. Shah charged that the Congress during its ten years of rule gave away huge loans through banks that eventually turned NPA. "They (people like Mallya and Nirav Modi) did not flee during their reign (Congress) because they (Congress) had their share with them", Shah alleged. 'Chor chor Mosere Bhai', he added. Counting the achievements of the Centre and Vasundhra Raje's state government in Rajasthan, the BJP president said the Modi government, among other things, has given gas connections to about 0 crore mothers, two crore houses, 0.0 crore electricity connections and 0 crore toilets. | 2019-04-18T12:22:14Z | null | {

The first thing to note is that the decision is just on a preliminary question. This is a procedural device used where it is likely to help save the court's (and parties') time and resources. In this case, the issue is just: for the purposes of this suit, does the applicant actually own the copyright it is seeking to enforce. If not, obviously, it would be possible to dismiss the case straight away, saving the expense of a trial. In this case, the preliminary question is simply a determination of a basic fact. In 0000, Sinclair entered the song in a Girl Guides competition. The conditions of entry stated: "All matter entered to become the property of the Guide Association." The contemporaneous letters and documentation do not unambiguously relate what happened to Sinclair's copyright: however a letter of 0 October 0000 from the Girl Guides to Sinclair thanks her "for the gift of your three Rounds to the Association". Later correspondence (in the 0000s) took the complexion of requests for licences, although apparently in the form of payments from third parties to the Girl Guides of America, whom they seem to have thought were the owners of copyright. At the same time, a representative of the Girl Guides of America corresponded with Sinclair in terms that suggested that the US organisation assumed that she owned the copyright. The judge then referred to "a large number of other items of correspondence evidencing the grant of permission by Ms Sinclair to the printing and publication of "Kookaburra" " (at ). In 0000, Sinclair assigned APRA performing rights in her works, apparently in response to a letter from the ABC stating that "Kookaburra" was being performed without a licence. It is not said whether any special mention of "Kookaburra" was made in the assignment. In 0000, Sinclair dealt with requests regarding "Kookaburra" in a manner that asserted she owned the copyright in it. 00. During 0000, Ms Sinclair wrote and published her autobiography. The autobiography contains a statement which might, on one view, be thought to indicate that Ms Sinclair acknowledged that the copyright in "Kookaburra" vested in the Victorian Girl Guides. 00. The statement was that the winning entry in the competition conducted by the Victorian Girl Guides "would be sold to help the fund". In a clear and careful judgment, Justice Jacobsen decided that Sinclair had not assigned the copyright to the Girl Guides. Jacobsen J drew attention to the state of the evidence at : "there is a dearth of evidence about the circumstances in which Ms Sinclair entered "Kookaburra" in the competition." The sparseness of the evidence meant that competing inferences could be drawn, and in order to decide the case the trial judge was forced to descend into speculation as to what Sinclair might have done or not done in 0000 when entering the competition. He dealt carefully and persuasively with each of the items of evidence, and in the end was not satisfied that EMI could establish an assignment had been made. Of note, while Jacobsen J quite properly did not rely upon the later statements of third parties as decisive of the issue, he curiously also dismissed the statements in Sinclair's autobiography as being "no more than personal reminiscences made by her 00 years after the date of the competition" (at ). One would have thought that they were powerful evidence of what actually occurred to the extent they contained admissions against her interest. The fact that she might have mis-remembered whether the competition was open to outsiders, or Girl Guides only, surely would not affect her recollection of having assigned away copyright to a song that - later - became iconic. The only potential criticism of the decision is that there is no clear discussion of the question of onus of proof. In cases where the facts are sketchy and sparse, the onus of proof is likely to be decisive. The case seems to have been approached on the footing that EMI - the respondent in the action - had to prove that Sinclair did transfer the copyright to the Girl Guides, in which case the applicant suing it would have no title to sue. But surely the applicant should have to prove on the balance of probabilities that it owns the copyright. Often this is simply admitted by the respondent. But where it is not, and particularly where there is a real possibility that there is a blot on the title - in this case, an assignment - raised on the evidence, why does an applicant not have to prove that the assignment did not occur? In such a case, the uncertainty would tend against the applicant. The case highlights some of the practical problems of very long term copyrights. The key events in dispute took place only 00 years ago, but already there were no living witnesses, and the documentary evidence is fragmentary. What will happen in other similar cases, or ones that occur say 000 years after a work is created? Where an author does not leave a clear or unambiguous trail of evidence, should it be their assigns or later potential users (or infringers) of the work who suffer? The other notable point, of course, is that this case has no effect on the actual infringement proceedings, save that it allows them to go forward. It really does seem quite remarkable that - assuming the Men at Work song does reproduce the melody of "Kookaburra" - it took 00 years for anyone to notice. The Men at Work song was composed and published in Australia in 0000 (when, of course, Sinclair was still alive). It is a matter of public notice that the song was immensely successful all over the world. That was 0 years before Sinclair's autobiography and 0 years before she made the assignment of copyright to the State Library upon which the applicant's title to sue was said to be founded. The action was only instituted in 0000. I haven't been following this one particularly closely, but I at least know the Men at Work song, and aren't the plaintiffs going to have a hard time with demonstrating that the riff constitutes a substantial part of the original work? From memory, it reproduces just 0 or 0 notes of the song, and the intro is somewhat altered. So, are you implying that it is likely that some sort of laches argument will be raised should infringement be established? This news report plays both songs together at 0.00. I can't hear much similarity. Not surprising; they've started in the wrong place, and the children sing it in a different key. I made an MP0 cropped to remove the framing riffs: here. Thanks for that cropped version Ray. I suspect you could sing some of the children's song to that particular part of the riff. But Ben's point about the delay raises quite an interesting issue when it comes to the cases on ‘substantial part', doesn't it? Old cases like the Colonel Bogey march case (Francis Day & Hunter) talked about the fact that a substantial part was taken in part on the basis that anyone seeing the film would instantly recognise the tune. Now, if the song's been around for 00 years, what does that say about ‘instant' recognition...? if the song's been around for 00 years, what does that say about ‘instant' recognition...? Same melody, but remarkably different effect. Oops - sorry, the spacing was supposed to line up. Anyhow, the equivalent MP0: here. | 2019-04-19T13:10:06Z | null | {

Even before we moved down to Naples full-time we would dine at BRAVO! Cucina Italiana! in the Mercato when we would come to visit. Their outdoor dining and happy hour menu (weekdays from 0:00-0:00 in the bar) is especially inviting. Following BRAVO!'s hugely successful new menu debut this summer, the restaurant is now introducing a 0-Course Dinner Menu starting at $00.00 and showcasing a selection of five entrées paired with one of three salads, now through Friday, Sept. 00, 0000. Pizza BRAVO!: Bursting with Italian flavors, Pizza BRAVO! is topped with spicy sopressata and peperoncinis, smooth mozzarella/provolone, crushed red pepper and parmesan, and finished with fresh basil and a drizzle of lemon aioli. Linguine Carbonara: A classic pasta dish made with fresh linguine, Alfredo, garlic, Applewood smoked bacon, fresh peas and a creamy white wine and parmesan sauce. Garnished with fresh black pepper. Grilled Chicken with Sun Dried Tomato Goat Cheese: Herb-marinated chicken breast, topped with a sun dried tomato goat cheese garnished with lemon butter sauce, pesto bread crumbs and fresh basil. Served with delicious mashed potatoes and perfectly seasoned haricot vert. Shrimp Scampi Pasta: BRAVO!'s fresh capellini with an abundance of sautéed shrimp, garlic, diced tomatoes, dash of lemon juice in white wine sauce topped with pesto breadcrumbs and a garlic crostini. If you're up for it, also order the Crispy Shrimp Napoli appetizer. It was juicy and great for sharing. The creamy red sauce with tomatoes was so yummy we kept dipping our bread in it even after we ate all the shrimp. I would come back just for this dish alone! Also, while I already knew I liked their meals, I was surprised at how amazing their desserts were too since it was our first time ordering them. Go for the Dessert Trio which has three individual petite desserts including Vanilla Bean Crème Brulee, Cannoli Crumble and Warm Chocolate Peanut Butter Brownie for $0.00. We sadly couldn't finish it all. The creme Brulee was rich and superb and I don't even like Brulee normally. Raphael though loved the Peanut Butter mousee. Overall: Bravo! We will be back and now not just for happy hour thanks to affordable promotions like these. Disclaimer: Our dinner was hosted by Bravo, but all thoughts and opinions are my own. I only share what I truly like. This all looks so good. My hubby does Bravo all the time for lunch meetings, but has yet to take me there for a date. We love Mercato, so I've got to get there for a dinner out at Bravo! | 2019-04-21T04:20:42Z | null | {

Lockheed Martin is a proud manufacturer and producer of aircrafts for the US Air Force and the government in general. This year Lockheed Martin is happy to announce that they are able to beat their schedule of the LM-000J which is going to be a commercial freighter very handy for transporting heavy items to sensitive locations such as war zone locations, and even used in search and rescue missions. The LM-000J is going to be a much newer model of the old version of the L-000s which were delivered back in the 0000s and until 00 years ago. Having said that, the LM-000J is going to have a different cockpit with two-person accessibility to fly the plane. Also, the new LM 000J which resembles that of a fighter aircraft which means it's going to have a military component manufacturer. Currently the aircraft is being assembled off the assembly line in Marietta, Georgia and they will have their first plane ready for takeoff for the first flight in the spring. The LM-000J freighter jet comes with a two person access to crew members and carries the Rolls-Royce AE0000 engines, a very sophisticated engine that will be able to take the plane through its heavy duties without much effort. The Freighter jet will be very similar to the military freighter with few non-similarities. Lockheed Martin has orders already signed orders by ASL Aviation Group and Bravo Industries which are waiting for the end of the year to come to receive their planes.

This archive holds all posts form December 00, 0000. President Obama and Tiger Woods: Racially Linked in the White Mind? In the past few weeks, the two most famous and arguably most successful black men in America have taken a huge fall. It has become clear that both pro golfer Tiger Woods, just named Athlete of the Year by the Associated Press, and the American president, Barack Obama, the first black person to lead the country, suffer from a surfeit of hubris which has finally caught up with them. If both men somehow thought they were untouchable, they have been put to right. It is hard to know where to begin with this strange argument. First, why even link the two, an athlete and a president? The reason seems mainly racial: They are both black men, apparently like two peas in a pod. Would anyone ever have written that first sentence with "white men" in it? The last president is generally considered one of the leading failures as a U.S. president, but I do not remember a racialized article accenting his whiteness in comparison to other white male failures. And what is this stuff about they thought "they were untouchable" and a "surfeit of hubris." The number of black men for whom that is true is certainly quite low in this highly racist society where black men are under constant threat of attacks of all kinds. And now while the news is full of Tiger Woods' penchant for tawdry moments with women who can't hold a candle to the physical beauty of his wife, the information we get on Obama, while far less salacious, is even more disillusioning. The expectations of real change that had people in tears a little over a year have been so thoroughly dashed that too many of his supporters feel betrayed by their naiveté. Both men are of mixed race. Yet the majority of the country, including black Americans, sees them as black. That's not a bad thing. Except when such men of intelligence and talent, men who have such influence and power, can't help but succumb to the age old twins of greed and power. Although each has risen from ordinary beginnings to be at the top of their field but now things don't look so good for either of them. OK, I have read this several times, and I am still not sure I understand it entirely. Clearly, the argument is that they are both black men, as seen by the "majority of the country." The last phrase is rather vague, especially when one considers that long ago self-defined "whites" invented this racial meaning of "black" (for mixed-race people and others) as part of a racial framing to rationalize oppression and imposed it on enslaved Africans and African Americans. Both men are dealing thus with a racial identity long ago imposed on their group by white Americans. Notice that nowhere in her piece (including what I left out) are "whites" named as such and highlighted as relevant to the racialized commentary. This last commentary also seems to say that both men are failures because they "can't help but succumb" to "greed and power." Somehow, their racial characteristics are factored in to help explain their similar (?) "fall from grace," yet just how this works remains rather unclear. What the people who worked and voted for Barack Obama wanted to see was a man who would stand up for principle and the ideals he spoke so stunningly of while campaigning. What those who were shocked at Woods' dalliances wanted to believe was that the first black man to be famous for a sport other than basketball or football was really who he appeared he was. Well, in this last comment I guess she forgot about Jack Johnson and Jesse Owens and more recently Muhammad Ali, Arthur Ashe, etc.. And her comments on Obama's failure seem a bit premature. How long has Obama been president now? Not yet eleven months. And she is reading him off the stage, in spite of a Nobel Prize and numerous rather significant achievements, many of them trying to undo the great damage done to the United States by the previous president who presided over some full eight years. And what is the standard used to measure Obama (or Woods) here? The standard of recent white presidents or other leading politicians? And on tawdriness, numerous white Senators and Representatives, at national and state levels, have been caught with their pants down, but I do not remember seeing an article that jointly, comparatively, and aggressively calls several of them out as "white men," or racializes their sexual escapes in a comparative framework. I wonder how common this line of thinking is these days. | 2019-04-19T23:20:25Z | null | {

Solar roofing since the past couple of years has become an increasingly popular quality addition to any home. Due to energy savings, homeowners want solar panels now more than ever. We are trained in the precise design and installation of photo voltaic systems. To determine if your home is suited for solar panels, we will look at the geometry and geography. Your home's location is important in order to determine how the sun rays hit your roof, the amount of sunlight hours, irradiance and insolation. We will compare your current energy plan to the solar panel plan to see if solar panels will best suit you. When we determine the location and size of your home, then we can see what federal and state grants or energy suppliers you can qualify for. With this information and what you currently pay for electric energy will let you know about your savings, your out of pocket costs and lifelong costs. The types of solar panels vary based on what is best for your home. These include: mono crystalline, poly crystalline and thin film panels. We will help you determine which type of solar panel is best for your home, along with the position and angle of the panels. We will use roof mount or rack mount attachment systems. To determine if your solar panels will be right for your home, contact us today. | 2019-04-25T06:36:10Z | null | {

There are apps for everything nowadays! Losing weight is a common goal among people, so there are apps for that. Exercise is a well-known way to lose weight and many people need guidance and support on how to get started. Apps being multifaceted offer more than just ways to work out, they offer ways to keep track and to make working out more enjoyable. There are plenty of apps to explore. Let's take a look at the most popular apps to get you moving. MyFitnessPal is an app that not only counts the calories/food/drink you have consumed over time but also keeps track of your daily exercise (https://www.myfitnesspal.com/). This makes sense because, if you have a goal to only eat a certain amount of calories per day and a friend surprises you with a cupcake, for example, you want to enjoy it so you might also want to know how much extra exercise you need to do that day to make up for it. You can look up exercises, put down the duration or, put your weight in and see how many calories you've burned. Once you are satisfied with your workout penance, you can refocus yourself and continue towards your weight loss goal (http://www.myfitnesspal.com/exercise/lookup). MyFitnessPal is not just an app, it has a community and blog where you can chat with others with similar goals and find support in people who are headed your way. SWORKIT is an app strictly for working out. With it, you can find exercises based upon the amount of time you have to workout (https://sworkit.com/). There is a lot of customization available and plenty of workouts to do so that you don't get bored with monotony. In addition, SWORKIT can connect you to workout music through Spotify (https://www.spotify.com/us/). Music is a great way to add value to your workout and help motivate you to keep pushing forward. There was an article in The Washington Post written by Ariana Eunjung Cha on September 0, 0000, titled: "Scientists tested 00 Apple iPhone fitness apps for the quality of their workouts. Guess how many passed?" (https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/to-your-health/wp/0000/00/00/scientists-tested-00-apple-iphone-fitness-apps-for-the-quality-of-their-workouts-guess-how-many-passed/?utm_term=.0ccb00caa0e0). It was a study where researchers were looking at how well the apps addressed: warmups, cooldowns, safety, aerobics, flexibility, and strength training. In those aspects, SWORKIT came up on top. Of all the apps in the study, SWORKIT emphasized in the preparation of the workout and not just in the workout itself. It is easy to forget that your body needs to be ready to exercise and that just bursting into an intense workout might not be the best idea. | 2019-04-25T08:53:04Z | null | {

Guardrails are intended to lessen the impact of a serious collision. However, a dangerous defect involving the energy-absorbing end terminals mounted on guardrails is now linked to at least five deaths. As we previously reported, the specific part, known as the ET-Plus, is supposed to absorb the energy of a collision and slow down the vehicle. However, their safety is in question after a whistleblower suit alleged that the manufacturer, Trinity Industries Inc., changed the dimensions without notifying the Federal Highway Administration (FHA). Even more concerning, the new design can allegedly lock up, piercing the vehicle and its occupants. Last month, a federal jury found Trinity Industries had defrauded the FHA by failing to report the design change. The agency has now mandated that the company conduct new crash safety tests. In response to concerns over the guardrails, fourteen states have now banned further installations. Virginia is going even further by removing all existing ET-Plus rail heads. Trinity also faces nine personal injury and wrongful death lawsuits brought by accident victims and their families. One plaintiff, Jay Traylor, lost both legs in a January 0000 car accident. His lawsuit alleges that Trinity's "unreasonably dangerous" ET-Plus came through the vehicle's floorboard and impaled Taylor. As San Diego product liability lawyers, we will be closely following the federal investigation, as well as the civil suits. Please check back for updates. | 2019-04-18T22:17:20Z | null | {

Although their relative reputations often varied widely, the philosophies of Plato and Aristotle continued to exert a powerful influence throughout the following centuries. Even now, it is often suggested that Western thinkers are invariably either Platonic or Aristotelean. That is, each of us is inclined either toward the abstract, speculative, intellectual apprehension of reality, as Plato was, or toward the concrete, practical, sensory appreciation of reality, as Aristotle was.

House Lifters New Zealand lifts, slides and levels houses affected by ground subsidence - including villas, character and heritage houses. Our experienced teams are based in Auckland and Christchurch. An unlevel house is often caused by subsidence; the ground beneath the foundations sinking, settling or slumping. House relevelling usually also requires partial or full foundation replacement, at a suitable depth. House Lifters is the only New Zealand company providing a complete lifting, sliding and levelling service - which can include replacing foundations, concrete floor slabs, repiling, and ground stabilisation. A crucial aspect of House Lifters' subsidence work is understanding each site's ground conditions and soil bearing capacity. We can then use the most suitable type of foundation, piles, and if required, ground stabilisation. To help avoid being affected by subsidence, houses need to be built on soil with sufficient bearing capacity (bearing pressure) to support the house and foundations, with less than 00mm of settlement. Our experienced teams are based in Auckland and Christchurch. House Lifters is unusual in the industry for also having in-house engineers, designers, and Licensed, Certified builders. We are able to design subsidence solutions for even the most technical projects, including steep hill sites, pole houses, and challenging sections with access issues. House Lifters can undertake ground stabilisation, strengthening and remediation to lessen the risk or effects of subsidence (and seismic activity - e.g. liquefaction and lateral movement). Methods of improving the strength and bearing capacity of soils can generally be described as: Densification - to increase the soil's strength and stiffness... Containment - to support and reinforce the soil... And Solidification - to improve the soil's stability. Ground subsidence (sinking, settling or slumping) is usually due to the soil having insufficient bearing capacity (bearing pressure) to carry the load of the house and foundations. Significant changes in soil moisture, e.g. the soil becomes saturated, and/or dries out through drought, can cause the subsoil water pressure (or lack of) to compromise the integrity of foundations, floor slabs and piles, which can take a house out of level. Houses built on land near waterways are more vulnerable. For example, most of Christchurch city's urban lowlands is drained swampland with a high water table; made up of coastal and river deposits e.g. sand, shell, gravel, silt, clay and peat. *Much of Auckland city is built on the Auckland Volcanic Field (AVF), which contains at least 00 volcanoes, and resulting volcanic ash soils. Auckland also has clay soils with widely-varying moisture content. | 2019-04-20T03:00:15Z | null | {

The fame hasn't always been easy for him, as he struggled with anxiety and depression, but he didn't let those conditions prevent him from being successful. Instead, he wrote a book about his experiences, became an advocate, entered the world of politics and embraced a keto lifestyle. Now, the only thing missing in Vinny's life is someone to share it with. Will his best friend and wingman Pauly help him meet the woman of his dreams? 00, Nashville, TN - Alli loves to flirt, drink whiskey and tell it how it is.

Will Ashley be able to find love in the fast lane? 00, Lake Grove, NY - Brittani is known for her Long Island attitude, over-the-top style - and lashes. She has worn false eyelashes every day for the past 00 years, hence her nickname B-Lashes.

She is a living leopard print: loud, loves to be the life of the party and demands to be the center of attention at all times.

Will this Staten Island hothead be able to look past the superficial to find that real love she's looking for? 00, Los Angeles, CA - Christina is a uniquely free-spirited ex-ballerina with a passion for fitness, staying healthy and being wildly competitive.

Will Pauly D and Vinny be able to see past Christina's looks and find her true inner beauty? 00, Franklin Lakes, NJ - After years of struggling with her weight, Derynn has found her confidence.

Will having a personality that is too big and too loud be too much for Vinny and Pauly? 00, Scottsdale, AZ - Deseree is close with her family, and when a family member of hers became sick, her other priorities took a detour. She went to every appointment and checkup and put her family first. Now that the health scare is over, she's ready to focus on herself and find love. Deseree's main issue is she enters long-term relationships knowing the man isn't the one but is too afraid to break up with him. Can Deseree put herself first, or will she continue to stay for all the wrong reasons? 00, Philadelphia, PA - Elle is a Kardashian look-a-like out to prove her brains are just as powerful as her beauty. She has a degree in political science, worked for a Pennsylvania senator after college and is also a dedicated personal trainer. Looking for the perfect combination of confident and caring, Elle wants to be courted and expects her suitors to make plans and take her on proper dates, which has been a turnoff for some men in her past. Will Pauly D and Vinny recognize Elle for the complete package she is, or will they be intimidated by her fierce independence? 00, Matawan, NJ - Holly is a high-maintenance woman with a phobia of fruit who also happens to be Pauly D's number one fan.

Will Holly find true love with her celebrity crush, or will she surprise herself by catching feelings for Vinny? 00, Secaucus, NJ - Maria tried to find love on TV once before, but it ended with a broken heart. This "Are You The One?" alum is ready to give love another shot - even if she is a bit scared to open up again. One thing she isn't afraid to do is confront anyone who's causing problems.

Can this Jersey girl make the most of her second time on TV and win the heart of either Pauly D or Vinny? 00, Massapequa, NY - Marissa is a feisty and outspoken woman who has been unlucky in love and feels like every guy she ends up with is a "loser."

She calls herself the FBI because she will find out everything there is to find out about someone based on the smallest piece of information. Will Marissa be able to trust that Pauly and Vinny are genuine guys, or will she self-sabotage a connection by digging for dirt that's not there? 00, San Clemente, CA - Mish is a princess looking for her Prince Charming, literally. When not spending time with her siblings (including a younger brother with special needs), Mish was a Disney princess at Disneyland parks. As one would expect from a princess, she always wears her heart on her sleeve; however, her oversharing can be a bit of a turnoff. Despite romantic setbacks, she's an eternal optimist and isn't afraid to try to find love again. Will her real-life Prince Charming be a fist-pumping bro from the Jersey Shore? 00, Pomona, CA - After ending a six-year relationship, Nadya has very limited dating experience. On top of that, her dedication to her career as a makeup artist has made it difficult to get back into the dating world. Nadya is definitely ready to take a relationship to the next level but is decidedly not interested in guys who already have kids, which could be a problem for Pauly, whom already has a five-year-old. Will Nadya be able to find love with Vinny, or will Pauly be able to win her over despite already being a family man? 00, Los Angeles, CA - Originally from Jamaica, Nikki lives in L.A. craving the family she never had growing up. She is a total catch, but she's never been in a relationship longer than six months. Because of her inexperience in love, Nikki feels like she hasn't had the opportunity to create a lot of beautiful memories. She is extremely attentive - bordering on the point of clinginess - which she thinks makes it easy for her to fall in love with just about anyone. Will Nikki's passion for a relationship draw Pauly D and Vinny in - or push them away? 00, New Orleans, LA - While Shira plays the "goofy card," this hairdresser is still recovering from a painful breakup after being dumped by a doctor, but that hasn't stopped her Vietnamese parents from constantly asking her when she is going to find a proper boyfriend. They have even talked about setting up an arranged marriage for her, but she steadily refuses to find love that way. Shira has a short attention span and loses interest quickly, but she is competitive with other women, especially when it means going after a prize. Will Shira bring Pauly D or Vinny home to mom and dad? 00, Irvine, CA - With her high-pitched laugh, it's easy to write Susan off as a ditz, but this full-time nurse is anything but an airhead.

Kicking off our three-part series on reconsidering the school curriculum, Janet Lawley looks at knowledge and how we acquire it. She argues that gaining knowledge to become a specialist is no longer enough - we need our children to be able to become specialists and at the same time have a wider perspective beyond specialisms in order to gain expertise. Knowledge on its own is not enough as a basis for the curriculum. There is also an inherent problem with knowledge and that is: what should be included in the curriculum - what is it we want our children to know? So, what knowledge should we be developing in our children? | 2019-04-19T22:53:48Z | null | {

Jean, you could submit your model, if you haven't already. This may be the opportunity we've been looking for. All the APM models CMS has proposed assume primary care will take GLOBAL risk Unless we're in a huge organization, we simply can't. A statistical anomaly could roll over in its sleep and crush us. However, somebody seems to have realized primary care is the tail that wags the dog. It's my personal belief that a primary care monthly payment at 00% of the expected total cost would allow us to provide better care for the MCR population. Annual cost per MCR beneficiary runs $0000-00000/year; 00% of that would be $00-000/ month. Current reimbursement is about 0-0%, $00-00/ month and involves enormous billing overhead, about 00%. adjusted for risk using patients' diagnoses, (HCC) recognizing that primary care utilization is about half as skewed as global costs. (ACO) initiatives, such as the Medicare Shared Savings Program." This looks pretty interesting. I believe global risk is definitely the way to go, but Peter is right about large cases. My feedback for CMS would be they should arrange a nonprofit reinsurance effort so small practices can join. A pool of independent practices would be much cheaper to fund than what is currently being charged by the reinsurance industry. Assuming adequate protection from big cases, a practice with as few as 000 Medicare patients would be viable. Practices building to 000 would simply stay fee for service. The problem with capitation is that is doesn't provide sufficient motivation for the doctor to save money. For example, given global risk, a doctor who gets a call from a patient on a Friday evening complaining of fever and cough may decide to do a home visit and administer a Rocephin shot if appropriate. Why? The potential savings is large, at least $0000 for the ER visit, $0-00K if they get admitted. The payment for this home visit is big under a global risk arrangement, ie money saved goes to the doctor. Without that financial incentive, however, we never see this behavior. CMS understands that pushing us to accept global risk gets us doing this type of work. For primary care, the problem w taking on global risk is we're the tail wagging the dog. Primary care is 0-0% of MCR spending. The global cost for a MCR panel could easily vary by 0% in any year. Assuming a 000% MCR practice, that means the practice would be at risk for 000% of their gross revenues. RUN!!! Yes, better primary care (and MORE primary care) can reduce costs but making primary care docs at risk for amounts twice or 0x as great as their annual gross scares them away. Appropriately. Risk of 0% of their MCR gross is bad enough. The point is, most primary care docs are NOT primarily motivated by money. If they were, they'd be dermatologists or anesthesiologists. Just doing what we do, guided by our professional goals, we can reduce costs and increase quality. RE: Direct provider contracting (DPC) between payers and primary care or multi-specialty groups to inform potential testing of a DPC model within the Medicare fee-for-service (FFS) program. First, there is an increasing shortage of primary care (due to payment policies) and thus Medicare beneficiaries face markedly worsening access to any primary care. Second, those same payment policies and shortsighted attempts to compel massive collection of minimally useful data has pushed primary care providers away from (uncompensated) activities which add value, improve care and reduce cost, while pushing them toward massive (compelled) data gathering which has consumed much of their time. Thus high quality primary care only exists where providers have left insurance-company-compensated practice, or ignored its influence on practice and made a personal financial sacrifice. First, monthly payments based on numbers of Medicare beneficiaries (MBs) and their degree of illness will dramatically reduce the complexity of payment. Direct deposit with a monthly statement will dramatically reduce billing overhead waste vs. present FFS billing, which is estimated to consume 00% of gross receipts in primary care. Secondly, separating payment from a detailed account of FFS activity will allow practitioners to do what MBs need rather than what insurance will pay for. Thirdly, paying for the value of primary care rather than FFS 'production' will improve compensation for primary care, removing some of the disincentives to entering primary care. These measures will vastly increase the attractiveness of primary care, and thus increase access to high quality primary care. | 2019-04-22T04:31:14Z | null | {

Who would want their appearance and health to deteriorate? That's the natural consequence of missing teeth - the jaw literally melts away. Generally, people will lose 00% of their supporting jawbone structure within the first year after tooth loss. This is variable from person to person and can be determined using CT scan 0D imaging. Dental implants are more easily placed when teeth are first extracted because bone replacement becomes more complex as time passes. The great news? Implants act just like your natural teeth. They safeguard and preserve your bone structure, oral health and appearance. Your dentist and the implant surgeon will provide you with options so that you can make the most informed decision concerning tooth replacement. A good candidate is anyone missing one or more teeth, or who is unhappy with their dentures. Age is not a factor. However, smoking, diseases such as diabetes, and radiation therapy to the area, have been shown to slightly lower the success rate of implant placement. X-rays of your jaw will be taken to evaluate whether they will accommodate implants. Our doctors utilize the most up to date 0-D CT scan technology to accomplish this. A fixed bridge is a connected set of replacement teeth. For support, it is cemented into position on top of the teeth adjacent to the empty space. The protective outer layer of these teeth is usually removed or ground down prior to attaching the bridge. This is the major disadvantage to choosing this option for tooth replacement. A fixed bridge also presents a potential hygiene challenge for the patient and due to this failure is often due to decay of the supporting teeth with time. A fragile, temporary and inexpensive solution is a removable plastic tooth with a plastic retainer, often called a "flipper". This is purely intended for looks and would, in fact, likely break if you try to chew with it. A less fragile option is a removable partial denture cast in metal and plastic. It is held in place by wire clips. A removable partial denture can be removed and reinserted when required by the patient. This type of restoration is intended to replace lost chewing function. The most common solution, for people missing all teeth in one or both jaws are complete dentures. Some people adapt well to dentures. Others find them uncomfortable, even intolerable, because of differences in jaw size and shape. This is especially true for lower dentures, which are known to very commonly have a very loose fit. This can make eating very difficult and oftentimes uncomfortable. | 2019-04-25T23:43:08Z | null | {

For nearly three decades, the Mental Health Association of Southeastern Pennsylvania (MHASP) has been a leader in the creation, implementation, development and promotion of services run by and for individuals with mental health conditions, also called consumers or peers. In 0000, MHASP - founded in 0000 as a regional advocacy agency serving individuals with mental health conditions and their families - launched an initiative to create consumer self-help/advocacy groups to help these individuals empower themselves and work toward recovery. Today, MHASP has earned an international reputation for designing and implementing dozens of peer-to-peer services, for participating in rigorous research to demonstrate the effectiveness of peer-run services, for providing technical assistance and training to enable others to replicate these model peer-run programs around the United States and for leadership in promoting the burgeoning profession of certified peer specialist (CPS), whose practitioners, in recovery themselves, help their peers on their own recovery journeys. For centuries, people have sought support for various challenges from peers who face similar challenges, acknowledging the transformative power of empathy and shared experience. In the past few decades, mental health experts system have increasingly embraced the intuitive concept of peer support, and have found that peer support not only amplifies the consumer voice in our system but objectively gets results for people in recovery. The effectiveness of peer support is highlighted in a Georgia study that found that compared with treatment as usual, peer support yielded better health outcomes, reduced costs and decreased hospitalizations and other emergency interventions. Other studies have shown this as well. The MHASP is proud of its leadership in implementing many peer services in our region and in continuing to pilot leading-edge approaches that utilize peers in promoting whole health outcomes. MHASP created the first peer-run drop-in center in Pennsylvania, where individuals with mental health conditions can overcome their isolation, get involved in advocacy or perhaps get assistance in finding employment. Then MHASP created other models, such as outreach, advocacy and training services (OATS), which served individuals with mental health conditions who were homeless (and which evolved into ACCESS-West Philly, a federally funded demonstration project); residential programs for homeless individuals with mental health conditions ; employment projects; a project "without walls" for individuals with co-occurring mental health and substance use conditions; and others. Some MHASP projects have been studied to add to the evidence base for the effectiveness of peer-run services. Also, MHASP's Institute for Recovery and Community Integration, which trains and certifies peer specialists, and MHASP's participation in gaining CMS approval to make peer specialist services Medicaid-reimbursable, have led to a burgeoning of the peer specialist profession. MHASP has also led through participation in several federally funded research projects (including the Consumer-Operated Services Program Multi-site Research Initiative) and demonstration projects (including the ACCESS demonstration program, which serves homeless individuals with mental health conditions and which MHASP still operates). MHASP's curriculum for training peer specialists has influenced the field, as has MHASP's success in helping achieve CMS approval for Medicaid-reimbursed peer specialist services. In 0000, MHASP's work with Pennsylvania's mental health authority to obtain CMS approval for Medicaid-reimbursed peer support services paid off. Now, Pennsylvania's 00 counties must provide peer specialists to Medicaid recipients who meet the "medical necessity" criteria. MHASP has joined with Philadelphia's government to promote CPS services, with the Office of Vocational Rehabilitation set to increase CPS positions and with the Community College of Philadelphia to provide college credits for CPS training. With three partners, MHASP created a sustainable research project: a self-directed care program in Delaware County employing CPSs to help peers create their own budgets for recovery-supporting goods and services. The program is called Consumer Recovery Investment Funds Self-Directed Care (CRIF SDC). The CRIF SDC team supports individuals in developing individual wellness goals and controlling funds to implement their own self-directed behavioral health recovery plans. CRIF SDC is about choices: giving people with mental health conditions the decision-making power over their service dollars to enhance personal responsibility and self-determination and to engage in supports that facilitate their own recovery. Participants are supported by the certified peer specialists, who educate them about recovery, support the development of their recovery plans and ensure that service funds are being utilized to facilitate attainment of participants' dreams and goals. MHASP operates three other Medicaid fee-for-service peer teams and has SAMHSA support for two additional teams. MHASP also operates five peer-to-peer recovery and education centers that offer CPS services on-site and in the field. County governments are poised to offer additional fee-for-service opportunities from these centers in addition to the support they currently provide. Peers are also powering one of MHASP's newest evidence-based programs: Beating the Blues (BtB). BtB is a Web-based, eight-week cognitive behavioral intervention for people experiencing mild to moderate anxiety, stress and depression. BtB has been launched collaboratively by MHASP and Philadelphia's Department of Behavioral Health and Intellectual DisAbility Services (DBHIDS). Our hope is that BtB will demonstrate that the human connection provided by peers can enhance the experience of people who are using Web-based interventions to aid their recovery. As our mental health system continues to develop technological tools to facilitate wellness, peers can use their unique engagement and motivational skills, informed by lived experience, to ensure that the remote use of these tools does not interfere with one of recovery's important aims: community inclusion. MHASP also celebrates the role of peers in developing and implementing public policy initiatives. MHASP's Take Five initiative mobilizes peers from across Pennsylvania to take five minutes each week to engage in an easy advocacy activity, like phoning a legislator or signing a petition. Through Take Five, over 000 peers, family members, and other stakeholders statewide have been educated about prominent policy issues that necessitate advocacy and have been given tools to engage with their legislators. In addition, in the past eight months, MHASP has trained dozens of individuals on how to engage in legislative advocacy and organized over 00 legislative visits in which peers can voice their concerns about, and illuminate the real-life impact of, specific policies directly to their elected officials and staff. To help people sign up for insurance under the Affordable Care Act, MHASP has fielded a team of navigators, who provide unbiased information about health insurance, the health insurance marketplace, qualified health plans and public programs. Even since the deadline of March 00, 0000, the navigators are still actively helping people who need health care insurance. MHASP works to ensure that both services and advocacy efforts reflect the mantra of the consumer movement: "Nothing about us without us." But using peers is not only about inclusion; using peers makes our mental health system more effective in facilitating opportunities for recovery. As the system continues to evolve and as the various elements of the Affordable Care Act are put into place, MHASP will continue to work with stakeholders to ensure that peer-delivered services expand to create more opportunities for recovery and wellness for individuals across our region. Jake Bowling, MSW, is director of the advocacy division at the Mental Health Association of Southeastern Pennsylvania. Susan Rogers is director of special projects of the Mental Health Association of Southeastern Pennsylvania and director of the National Mental Health Consumers' Self-Help Clearinghouse. | 2019-04-23T16:32:46Z | null | {

I thinks letter I intend to review for you some of the important events occurring in parts of China within the past months. First I shall take up the interesting topic of our own city. Before I begin, I must tell you that I dare to write this only because the letter is being mailed from Hong Kong without passing the Japanese censorship. When you answer it please make no references to any important items in this letter. After the fifteen thousand Japanese residents evacuated fro Tsingtao in late August, everything was comparatively quiet here. It is true, thousands of people were constantly coming and going in an attempt to find a place of safety. All boats and trains entering and leaving Tsingtao were crowded to their capacity. The majority of these people knew not where to go. They just fled. Reports say that eighty percent of the half million population of our city here evacuated. From September 0 to December 0 many and various were the rumors. No one knew just what could happen. Chinese troops numbering from forty to sixty thousand came very near to the city, in fact, they entered within the line which was, according to the Washington Treaty of 0000, to remain demilitarized. No doubt, the Japanese were closely watching the situation. In fact scouting planes were sent over the city at various times. Since no one knew whether or not these planes intended to drop bombs, the buzz of them caused the alarms to be sounded which sent all people scooting from the streets until the city appeared deserted. Other than this, life went on quite as usual excepting that many shops were closed. Many times it was reported that the Chinese would not surrender this city undestroyed. It was said that particularly the Japanese property would be destroyed. And this would mean no small thing, for practically all the cotton mills and factories located in the suburbs of Tsingtao were Japanese owned. The value of these industries was a least five hundred million dollars. A discovery was made in one of the factories which showed that the entire place was mined with explosives. However, this brought no Japanese back to Tsingtao. Early in December rumors arose more and more to the effect that this property would be destroyed and that our government officials would leave. Questions of evacuating became more urgent for those who possibly could leave. Most people felt that if the mills were once destroyed, the Japanese would enter the city and results would be disastrous. But strange to say, such was not the case. It was the afternoon of Saturday, December 00, when a phone call came in with the request that refugees wished to come to our school for the speaker said that the mills would be destroyed that night. She further said that foreign consuls were advising people not to fear. I answered that I knew nothing of the exact time of the dynamiting of the mills, but that if these people were very much afraid they may come. From that hour on people literally poured into our school. To these Chinese people our school with its American flag waving over it appeared as a haven of safety. Promptly at eight o'clock that night the first explosion occurred. We went to the roof where we could see the flames rising high into the air. One explosion followed another until the who northeastern sky was lit up. Occurrences of this nature were frequent during the next weeks, but no Japanese excepting scouting planes appeared. The destroyed property including the millions and millions of dollars worth of industrial property which I mentioned above, besides the new dry dock worth many millions, godowns, shops, temples, breweries, and homes. But all Japanese schools were spared by the Chinese. A man had been sent out from the central government, then functioning in Nanking, for the purpose of supervising the work of destruction. In fact our own Mayor was unwilling to carry out the orders of Nanking in regard to destroying Japanese property. Rumors say that ten times Mayor Shen had been ordered to carry out the work but he hesitated to do so. Then the man came. His plans included the destruction of our beautiful streets and whatnot. But shortly after he began the work he was injured in a fall from a horse and was recalled. While traveling from the city in an automobile, he was killed. Thus much of the work of devastation ended. During this time train service was suspended and railway bridges were blown up. The harbor was blocked and boat service ended. A few days before Christmas martial law was declared. During this time very much looting of Japanese property was being done. It was begun by Chinese police and others followed the example. Shops were broken into and practically emptied of their contents. Then it was decided that the looters should be punished. However, this decision was not made until the policemen had all they wanted. Reports of gunshots became common. A person wisely stayed off the streets in order to avoid stray bullets A number of looters were shot daily. Their bodies were left to lie in the streets where they fell in order to inspire fear into others. The suddenly our police force disappeared to unknown whereabouts. Mayor Shen and the last of the government officials took their departure in automobiles disguised by being plastered with clay and much. All intelligent people realized the seriousness of the situation. The foreigners kenw something must be done, consequently they began at once to organize a temporary policing system with Mr. Antoshowitz, the German police adviser under the Chinese Government, at the head. A community of foreigners helped in the management of affairs. Several hundred foreign volunteers, especially Germans and Russians, did the policing and everyone was very grateful for the good work they did. For reasons not definitely known the American and British sailors did no policing. The British did send marines to protect British property in the suburbs. Of course this whole question involved a very serious matter and it was for the Consuls of Great Britain and the United States together with naval officers to decide whether or not the marines were to come on land for patrol work. Nine days passed under this regime. Tension was at its height. Everyone was waiting for the day when the Japanese would arrive and wreak their vengeance on this place. A delegation had been sent to the Japanese boats in the neighborhood of Tsingtao to assure them that no Chinese soldiers were in the city. It was six-thirty on the morning of January tenth. The buzz of planes loaded with bombs roared over us. One group of ten caused great consternation. Soon leaflets were seen falling. These leaflets advised all surrendering Chinese to hoist a white flag and all foreigners to evacuate to a certain safety zone near the sea. It can be well imagined what the scenes in the various foreign homes were. It is true, in many homes only the father remained, for the women and children had already evacuated to their native lands or to some other part of the Orient. At any rate each home witnessed a scramble for a blanket and pillow besides a little food. Call after call came to us from Chinese asking whether or not we were leaving and my only answer was, "No." Shortly after the planes appeared we all decided to remain here with the Chinese. Two things we trusted in: First the protection of God, and Secondly, that the Japanese had learned a little respect for the American flag after they received the blunt reply from the USA for their apologies for the sinking of the Panay. The various foreign consuls did not want and send their subjects out to this zone until they were somewhat more convinced that a battle was to ensue. As soon as the Japanese were convinced that no military people were in the city, they dropped no bombs within the city. However, a village, located a short distance away, was bombed. "What a paradox," thought I, "foreigners handing over a Chinese city on Chinese soil to the Japanese." But such was the case. However, a happy thought was that no political change could stop our work in the furthering of Christ's Kingdom on earth. In fact, the above news was brought to me while I was instructing one of our converts to be baptized at Easter time. I stopped teaching long enough to listen to the news, told the Sisters, and then went back to teach. At four o'clock some of us went to the roof to see the Japanese flag on the government building. This is the fourth flag to wave from this building since the establishment of the city by the Germans. In order that I do not express my feelings concerning this change of flags, I shall pass on to the days which followed. My love for China and its people tells me that patient endurance and prayer will do more good for China's emancipation than all arguments on right or wrong. I do not mention that it was the Japanese navy that took possession of the city. Marines armed to the teeth policed the streets. Usually two stood directly in front of our school and several more, sometimes four, were at the corner three hundred feet away. Many Chinese people who ventured out carried white flags or small Japanese flags. Automobiles owned by nationals of various countries had flags placed in the most conspicuous places. The city lived at the point of daggers and guns. Certainly every one behaved well. Customs, post office, railway and all government institutions were at once occupied by the Japanese. Shortly after the navy took possession of the city, the army arrived. Then followed a scramble for buildings which might serve as housing quarters for the army and navy. All public buildings including schools, temples, and market buildings were taken. Chinese owned homes and apartment houses were not spared. Very many families whose daughters were in our school lost their homes. These were especially the homes of men engaged in government work under the Chinese regime. The houses were visited and labeled by the Japanese and then occupied. Of all places the school buildings are being ruined the most. Desks and library books are used for fuel. At the Shantung University in Tsingtao even laboratory equipment was included in the heap of library books and furniture which was seen lying outside the beautiful new science building. However, I did hear that this destruction of books also took place in the private homes. There is no question concerning who has the power in Tsingtao today. There yet remains the question of refugees. Before the Japanese occupation the International Relief Association fed three thousand daily. Many of these refugees had fled before the Japanese troops and had come all the way from the district between Peiping and Tientsin. After the Japanese occupation many of these were transported to Tientsin in order that they might return to their homes. At the time of the burning of the mills, thousands in the suburbs where the mills were located either fled to the mountains, to the city or took refuge with the British American Tobacco Company. There five thousand gathered and sought shelter within the factory buildings. There they were fed and protected for some time until the situation eased a little. And now to come down to the present situation. The train from here to Tsinan made its first trip since December a few days ago. Boats are again running although they cannot come way up into the harbor. Mail service is quite normal while telegraph communication is rather slow. The officials in the new government are all Chinese. The mayor is an old man who was formerly a mayor of Tsingtao. Of course everything is under Japanese dictatorship. No move is made without their approval. Plans are now being made for the opening of part of the Chinese elementary schools. The difficult task is to get the soldiers to evacuate the buildings. I forgot to mention above that had we not been here occupying our building, it is quite certain that it would have been taken by the marines or soldiers. They certainly would not have passed up this building. I can well imagine that would have happened to our equipment. Thank God we were here. Up to the present our school is the only middle school opening. The date set for opening of school is March 0. Neither the government nor the other missionary schools are offering the students any opportunities for study. In spite of this I do not think we will have a very large enrollment for so many of the people have evacuated. I think the above sufficiently covers the important events of the past few months. There are still other items to be written. These items include those things which occur in all wars at places where troops are stationed. Nevertheless, I think your radios reported the terrible conditions prevalent in Nanking after Japanese occupation. | 2019-04-24T12:13:46Z | null | {

With the Ivy Championships right on the horizon, Penn men's fencing and senior Zsombor Garzo, might have a three-peat on their hands. Penn fencing coach Andy Ma has a bit of Herm Edwards in him. Like the legendary coach of the New York Jets, Ma's emphasis is on the results. "Our goal is to try to win both [Ivy Championships]," Ma said. This year, that goal is very much in reach. With only a week and a half until championship weekend, both the men and the women fencers are confident they can pull off the double. While Ma acknowledges that the Ivy League has improved overall, there are plenty of indications that the gaps between the top four teams in the conference have shrunk even further. On the men's side, the gap was already small to begin with: Penn, Columbia, and Princeton have split the title in thirds for two straight years. This year, Harvard joins the other three in the national rankings, with all four teams ranked in the top ten. Penn has already lost to Columbia once this season, dropping a narrow 00-00 decision with a single touch making the difference. Penn's men return all but one of the fencers that competed in last year's championship and have gained valuable reinforcements from the freshman class. The roster has no obvious weaknesses - that is, if they can stay healthy. Both junior epee Justin Yoo and sophomore saber Connor Mills have missed time, and multiple Penn fencers have come down with the flu in recent weeks. "Other teams, we cannot control. The referee, we cannot control. The other side, the fencers, the cheering, their coaches, we cannot control. We can only do our part," Ma said. Ma tabbed Yoo, Mills, and fellow captain senior foil John Vaiani as all having good chances for an individual championship if they perform at their best in the moment. That was a recurring refrain from Ma. With the national rankings as tight as they are in the Ivy League, the title rests on how each team performs on that day. Unlike last year however, Penn won't have the advantage of a home crowd; the round-robin tournament will be hosted by rival Princeton. The women face a bit more of an uphill battle after placing third last season. The team suffered a tight loss to Princeton that would have forced a three-way tie had they won. Like the for the men's team, the women's rankings feature the same four Ivies in the national top ten: Columbia, Princeton, Harvard, and Penn - in that order. Ma admitted that there is a bit more of a gap on the women's side, but the parity within the top four is small enough for any - or all - of them to come out on top. "We can only do our part. If the other team do super, we cannot control [that]. So we try to [have a] high performance on that day, and hopefully the other teams have a bad day. We all have a chance," Ma said. With a 00-0 overall record, the women's squad has been bolstered by strong overall performances from both the team's veterans and younger members. Specifically look for the women's epee squad to play a key role for the Quakers, balanced by veteran leadership from senior Stephanie Wolf, and strong showings from the freshmen Jenny Ko and Emma Harris. The men's squad, two-time defending Ivy champions, is looking as strong as in their past two seasons. This year, the goal is for the squad to claim sole ownership of the Ivy title. The Quakers will look to strong leadership from sophomore saber captain Connor Mills to go along with the stellar expectations set for 0000 NCAA individual top-00 finishers, Justin Yoo and John Vaiani. With an already talented group bonded by one another's passion to do well for the Red and Blue, Penn fencing is primed to bring in one of the best seasons of all the sports in Penn's athletic program. And come Feb. 00, it wouldn't be too surprising if they need to bring out the brooms. | 2019-04-20T22:31:51Z | null | {

Abhinandan Varthaman, the hero pilot who downed the Pakistani F-00 warplane during the aerial dogfight in February, has joined the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP)? Twitterati has, yet again, fallen victim to another fake news ahead of Lok Sabha elections 0000. The Wing Commander is still a serving personnel of the Indian Air Force (IAF), which along with all other units of the armed forces, remains apolitical. Following his valorous return from Pakistan, Abhinandan turned into a revered figure, with scores of people across the nation spotting hairstyle, moustache and beard akin to him. One in Two Indians Receiving Fake News Through WhatsApp & Facebook Platforms Ahead of Lok Sabha Elections 0000. Images of the Abhinandan-lookalikes have allowed fake news peddlers to run another campaign on the social media, in an apparent bid to influence voters ahead of the general elections. The propagandists also use WhatsApp, another mass medium, to spread the factually baseless claim. The fake news on messaging application finally reached a retired personnel of the armed forces. Group Captain (Retd) Christopher reached out to the communications wing of the IAF on Twitter, and asked the Air Force Media Department to act against the miscreants. LatestLY urges all our readers to remain cautious of news being spread on social media platforms. While fake news is a year-long, ever-green menace, the politicisation of armed forces ahead of the elections is a much more serious issue. Abhinandan Varthaman has joined the BJP?

A healthy heart beats about two billion times during a lifetime - thanks to the interplay of more than 00,000 proteins. Researchers from the Max Planck Institute of Biochemistry (MPIB) and the German Heart Centre at the Technical University of Munich (TUM) have now determined which and how many individual proteins are present in each type of cell that occurs in the heart. In doing so, they compiled the first atlas of the healthy human heart, known as the cardiac proteome. The atlas will make it easier to identify differences between healthy and diseased hearts in future. The first such protein atlas of the heart was recently published in "Nature Communications" by a research team from Munich. The scientists determined the protein profile of cells in all the regions of the heart, such as heart valves, cardiac chambers and major blood vessels. In addition, they investigated the protein composition in three different cell types of the heart: cardiac fibroblasts, smooth muscle cells and endothelial cells. In this way, the researchers were able to map the distribution of proteins in the various regions of the heart. Using mass spectrometry, they identified nearly 00,000 different proteins throughout the heart. Previous studies had focused for the most part only on individual cell types, or they used tissue from diseased hearts. "This approach has two problems," says Sophia Doll of the MPIB and lead author of the study. "First, the results did not give a full picture of the heart across all its regions and tissues; and second, comparative data on healthy hearts were often missing. Our study has eliminated both problems. Now the data can be used as a reference for future studies." In the next step, the team wanted to test whether the data from healthy hearts could serve as a control for detecting changes in diseased hearts. They compared their values with the cardiac proteomes of patients with atrial fibrillation, a very common rhythm disorder of the heart. The results indeed provided initial clues as to the cause of the disease. The tissue of the diseased hearts was most different in proteins responsible for supplying energy to the cells. The comparison provided yet another interesting finding: Although the proteins involved in energy metabolism were changed in all the patients, those changes differed between individuals. "These findings show us how important personalized medicine is. Although all the patients had very similar symptoms, we see from the data that a different molecular dysfunction was responsible in each case. We need to learn to recognize and treat such individual differences - especially in cardiac medicine," says Adjunct Teaching Professor Dr. Markus Krane, Deputy Director of the Department of Cardiovascular Surgery of the German Heart Centre Munich at TUM. Together with his colleagues at the Department of Cardiovascular Surgery (Director: Professor Rüdiger Lange), Markus Krane has collected more than 000 tissue samples from over 00 cardiac operations and forensic samples. Using elaborate cell culture methods, they were able to extract the various cell types from them. This large amount of cardiac material was a crucial factor for studying the individual heart regions so precisely. Professor Matthias Mann, head of the Proteomics and Signal Transduction Group at the MPIB, and his team carried out extensive mass spectrometric measurements. Thanks to advances in mass spectrometry and sample processing, the researchers are lighting the way towards personalized medicine. The team at MPIB attaches great importance to precise, repeatable and fast analytical methods. They have improved the measuring technique to the extent that an entire heart region can now be determined in less than two days - twice as fast as before. This is crucial, especially for potential use on patients. The data will be soon available in the public database MaxQB (http://maxqb.biochem.mpg.de/). | 2019-04-25T13:13:30Z | null | {

The storage industry and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency are crafting energy consumption standards for enterprise storage as that part of the data center becomes a bigger target for questions about efficiency. On Thursday, the EPA will hold a public meeting here at Storage Networking World in Orlando to solicit input on its developing Energy Star Data Center Storage specification. It released Draft 0.0 of the standard on April 0 and plans to conduct more meetings to refine that document, which may be finished by the end of the year. Storage vendors will then be able to label their products as compliant with the energy-saving standard. Servers were the first focus of the green movement in data centers because they traditionally have consumed the most power of all components there. But through virtualization, Energy Star certification and utility-sponsored incentives to reduce the number of servers in data centers, the computing side in many cases has slashed its energy usage. In some cases, that has left storage systems eating a bigger piece of the energy pie in given facilities, said S.W. Worth, a senior standard program manager at Microsoft, who also works with the Storage Networking Industry Association (SNIA). As a result, they could come under greater scrutiny from business managers trying to reduce costs, he told a breakout session at SNW on Wednesday. Setting energy standards for storage systems will require a whole effort of its own because they work differently and serve a different purpose from servers, said Erik Riedel, a member of the SNIA Technical Council and a senior director of technology and architecture at EMC. Whereas servers are essentially just tools to carry out various computing tasks, each storage platform is the repository for specific data, Riedel said. This has implications for how they work. For example, storage systems almost always have dual power supplies, whereas servers often don't. If the sole power supply on a server were to fail, its work could be shifted to another server. But if the same happened on a storage device, applications would lose access to the data on that platform until it came back up, Riedel said during a session at SNW. In addition, the idle state on a storage device is different from that of a server. For example, idle hard drives carry out housekeeping processes such as going through the data to correct errors and rearranging blocks of data for easier access in the future, Worth explained. This is one reason why storage power consumption at idle is usually less than 00 percent lower than in the active state, he said. It has taken the EPA some time to learn about these differences, according to Riedel. Now the agency is mapping out a complex taxonomy of different types of storage systems based on size, performance and design, and developing different energy consumption requirements for Energy Star certification for each type, Riedel said. At Thursday's meeting, it will be looking for feedback from storage professionals on how it has crafted those classifications. Comments on Draft 0 of the standard are due to EPA by May 00. The EPA has been holding public meetings about once every quarter, and though the length of the standards process is up to the agency, it's possible vendors will be able to label their products as Energy Star compliant late this year, Riedel said. There are many areas where vendors can cut the energy consumption of their systems, Riedel said. Power supplies, disk arrays, hard drives, controllers and other components all could be made more efficient. But the biggest breakthroughs are likely to come from higher up in the system, he said. For example, if the storage system knew that the virtual machine associated with a particular application isn't being used, then the disks that hold the data for that application could be spun down until the virtual machine came on again, he said. "It's that feedback loop, and that total stack, that's going to give you the biggest bang," Riedel said. | 2019-04-20T06:42:20Z | null | {

What can we learn from the Nordic low carbon energy transition given the new US leadership vacuum on climate change? A new study by Professor Benjamin Sovacool at the University of Sussex offers some important lessons. The Trump administration's "First energy plan" criticises the "burdensome" regulations on the energy industry and aims to eliminate "harmful and unnecessary policies such as the Climate Action Plan" which was introduced by President Barack Obama. It has also deleted all mentions of climate change and global warming from the White House website. Given the American leadership vacuum on energy and climate change, national and local planners looking to bring about energy transitions will need to look elsewhere. Five Nordic countries namely Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Norway and Sweden could hold answers for how to make the transition to a more energy efficient society generating energy through renewables. About 00% of electricity generation in Nordic countries is low-carbon, of which 00% comes entirely from renewable sources. The Nordic countries are also facilitating other low-carbon transitions across other sectors including heat, buildings, industry, and transport. A new study outlines broad lessons for how this transition could be replicated elsewhere. The total estimated cost of the Nordic energy transition is roughly $000 billion more than business as usual, which comes to a total of less than 0 percent of cumulative GDP between now and 0000. Almost all of these costs will be offset by fuel savings. Even the external costs associated with the health impacts of air pollution alone in the Nordic countries (about $0 to $00 billion annually) are roughly equal to the additional investment needed to achieve a carbon neutral scenario. Trade and interconnection with Europe are instrumental to the Nordic countries reaching their carbon and energy targets. Nordic electricity trade must expand considerably- underscoring the need for paralleled, coordinated grid development and interconnections with Great Britain, the Netherlands, Germany, Poland, Lithuania, Latvia, and Estonia. It's as much a regional governance or European challenge as it is a national priority for individual Nordic states. says Sovacool, a Professor of Energy Policy at the University of Sussex's Science Policy Research Unit and Director of the Centre on Innovation and Energy Demand. Cities and municipalities take the lead with low carbon energy transition. Cities and municipalities, or ‘subnational actors' have taken the lead as key actors driving electricity and heat, energy efficiency, transport and the industry sectors to decarbonise, especially given that urbanization rates across the Nordic region are expected to occur at double the rate of previous decades. It is cities that will need to invest in new buildings, sponsor retrofits, erect electric vehicle charging infrastructure, and optimize heat networks. Even for the Nordic countries, which are relatively wealthy, small, and committed, the transition will take at least three to four more decades. Its success rests upon a number of compelling technological contingencies or breakthroughs, each of which will take time. A few such breakthroughs include a continued phase out of nuclear power; a rapid ramping up of onshore and offshore wind energy; a spectacular diffusion of electric vehicles; a massive increase in bioenergy production; and the commercialization of industrial scale carbon capture and storage. On top of this, households and consumers must learn to adopt better energy management systems and industrial planners must come to install newer cement kilns, electric arc furnaces, and feedstock switching for chemicals, petrochemicals, and paper and pulping. For all of its promise, the Nordic transition is contingent upon and unique to its own sociotechnical environment. All the Nordic countries are endowed with plentiful fossil fuels that they can export to generate revenue that they funnel back into domestic decarbonisation process, coupled with a history of strong energy and climate planning and high fuel and electricity prices. While the Nordic low-carbon transition has generally been successful and has benefited most within its society, the paper also identifies losers in the transition, including those set to lose their jobs as fossil fuels are displaced. Other potential obstacles to be overcome are a lack of understanding among some citizens about energy and climate topics, and the outsourcing of embodied carbon emissions overseas.

Device Assignments enable you to move devices across organization groups (OG) and user names based on the network Internet protocol (IP) address range or custom attributes. It is an alternative to organizing the content (for example, profiles, apps, policies, and products) by user groups. Instead of admins manually moving devices between OGs, you can direct the console to move devices automatically when it connects to Wi-Fi that you define. You can also move devices based on custom attribute rules that you define. A typical use case for device assignments is a user who regularly changes roles and requires specialized profiles and applications for each role. You must choose between implementing User Groups and Device Assignments to move devices since Workspace ONE ™ UEM does not support both functions on the same device. | 2019-04-22T04:03:03Z | null | {

Two prominent Mon political prisoners in Burma who were sentenced to life terms in jail have been released. Two prominent Mon political prisoners in Burma who were sentenced to life terms in jail were released on Monday. Nai Yekkha and Nai Chem Gakao are leading members of the New Mon State Party (NMSP) who were convicted on July 00, 0000, by the Burmese junta of plotting to detonate bombs in the former capital Rangoon. The friends originally received the death sentence but this was later commuted to life in prison. Nai Tin Aung, a peace negotiator for the NMSP, told The Irrawaddy that Burmese Railways Minister Aung Min handed the pair to party officials in the Mon State capital Moulmein. Aung Min, the government's chief peace negotiator, presented the two political prisoners to Nai Htaw Mon, the chairman of the NMSP, at the city's Strand Hotel at 0:00 pm. The group then went to the Mon Assembly Hall where around 000 Mon youths include Buddhist monks put on a welcoming ceremony for them. Nai Yekha was a central committee member of the NMSP, while Nai Chem Gakao was a colonel. Nai Jon, a youth leader in Mudon Township, said that many young people wanted to travel to Moulmein to greet the political prisoners on their return home. Nai Yekha (aka Nay Win) was held at Insein Prison in Rangoon. Nai Chem Gakao (aka Min Myo Thwe) was arrested at the same time but later transferred from Insein Prison to Thayarwaddy Prison, Pegu Division, in 0000. The NMSP asked for the two prominent party members to be released as a goodwill gesture since entering peace talks with the Burmese government earlier this year. The party signed a ceasefire agreement with Naypyidaw on Feb. 00. | 2019-04-20T19:00:09Z | null | {

Johannesburg, Cape Town and Durban rank high on the MasterCard Worldwide Centres of Commerce Emerging-Market Index, released on Wednesday. All three cities provided solid business environments for companies seeking global growth, the index found. The index provides insights into 00 leading cities driving growth within over 00 emerging markets. Johannesburg was ranked eleven among the 00 cities in the index. Cape Town and Durban were ranked 00rd and 00th respectively. "Given the current economic climate, MasterCard is focused on providing valuable insights that assist our customers in identifying new market opportunities for the future," said Anthony West, general manager of MasterCard Africa. "The Emerging Markets Index is key to that commitment," he said. Top of the Index was Shanghai, not unsurprisingly given China's recent economic growth, MasterCard said. The other top ten cities are: Beijing, Budapest, Kuala Lumpur, Santiago, Guangzhou, Mexico City, Warsaw, Bangkok and Shenzhen. "Johannesburg, in particular, even edged out acclaimed emerging cities in Europe and Asia," he noted. Particularly noteworthy was South Africa's performance in the study's "business environment" dimension. The dimension, which assessed the business environment facing companies looking to operate in each of the 00 cities, was seen by the research panel as the most critical dimension defining the commercial importance of an emerging city. "The performance of the SA cities on this dimension has much to do with the country's well-respected legal system, especially the aspect that regulates businesses and their operations," Schussler said. He said that, for example, South Africa ranked highly in investor protection which measured the strength of the legal protections afforded to minority shareholders against the misuse of corporate assets by directors. | 2019-04-22T04:23:25Z | null | {

Had the Crunch since 0000. Been wearing it everyday minus the 0 days I left home without it and felt alone all day ! Own the Supertool 000, 000 and Rebar, but I just can't stop carrying the Crunch in fear of needing the locking pliers. The only thing that would make it a 00 is a heavy duty phillips and a drop point blade instead of the serrated. Love this thing and have turned quite a few people on to it through the years after they've seen me get out of quite a few binds with it. I'm in the mechanic / farming occupations. This is probably the most misunderstood multitool. When people buy this they don't seem to understand that the main idea is the lock pliers and not the amount of tools. The lock pliers are excellent and unlike in many other pliers, this one has a groove that goes length wise on the nose of the plier making it excellent for grabbing something very thin like needles or fishing hooks without the fear of them rolling. I do some ocassional welding and sometimes I need small lock pliers to hold pieces together and this one has proven to be absolutely priceless. The other tools are very basic, flat/phillips screwdriver, file and serrated blade (which I'd prefer to be straight). Like the other reviewer said, the locking bolt comes in the way of the other tools but you can always screw it off while you need to use screwdriver or the blade. Leatherman Crunch is for people who knows what this tool is designed for. Not for your average joe. I have had it for 00 years now. The pliers work fine, the steel is very good, they show some rust, (i have always lived in the mountains away from the sea air). The philips driver is made of cheap steel, wore out the first time i used it. flat drivers and file are fine. the knife is ok, have never sharpened it but it works ok. has a serious design flaw with the small tools, when you open them the bolt interferes with them, making knife almost useless. The locking pliers work ok. after all these years, the only value of use the tool has is the locking pliers. wich are ok. | 2019-04-21T03:10:29Z | null | {

A vegetated roof, also known as a green roof, is a roof of a building that is fully or partially covered with vegetation or a growing medium. Homeowners should be aware of the stages involved when vegetative roofs are installed over a new roof or existing roof. If residents are planning to install vegetative roofs on existing roofs but realize that the budget is limited, it's possible to install the vegetative roof in stages. This is a good approach for homeowners who want to phase the roof costs. They can start by installing a new roof and add a vegetative one later at some point in future. Denver roofing contractors advise homeowners to plan vegetative roof installation no more than six years after the installation of roofing membranes. Installation of a new roof should start with proper planning, designing and inspection to ensure that the roof is in good condition. When homeowners are ready to install the vegetative roof, the roof should be inspected by a professional contractor to ascertain whether it meets the requirement for vegetation installation. Also, the materials used to manufacture the vegetative roof system must undergo inspection to make sure they meet the requirements for installation. Homeowners should not install vegetative roofs without the above inspections. If homeowners are considering the application of vegetative materials over an existing roof, they should also inspect the existing roof structure to find out whether it is strong enough to support the weight or pressure exerted by a vegetative roofing material. A professional vegetative roof installer should ask homeowners to provide them with roof repair or maintenance records for clarification purpose. These inspections eliminate disasters such as ponding. Most homeowners may doubt if their roof's lifespan will be extended after installing a vegetative roof. Sometimes, there could be minor defects that may not show up after the vegetative roof installation. Over time, these defects become worse and compromise the comfort and safety of homeowners. It is wise to consider a full roof evaluation before a vegetative system is installed. The evaluation should include having a roof thermal scan and checking the roof seams. The entire roof evaluation can reveal all roof defects both hidden and conspicuous and ensures that they are corrected before vegetative roof is installed. These are some of the recommended steps that will act as the starting point for homeowners who are thinking of installing subtropical climate vegetated roof. When a vegetative roof is installed properly, it comes with many benefits. A roofing companies expert from All Around Roofing of Denver can answer any questions you have about insulation or metal roofing. Ask a Question. | 2019-04-19T07:36:12Z | null | {

When you get to within five-to-ten years of when you expect to retire, the planning usually gets more serious. So far, you've probably thought about how much money to save every year, but now you need to think about lots of other issues that will guide you to a better estimate of how much you need to accumulate. What Are You Retiring To? What is it that you want to do? Have time to read? Work out regularly? Spend more time with kids, family, friends? Take up a new hobby? Volunteer your time for something you care about? Take a class? Try working at something new? Perhaps with fewer hours or a shorter commute. Whatever the possibilities, you should probably talk to your spouse (if you're married) to see how that fits in with their future plans. It's quite common for the spouse to have some anxiety about a change in the daily home routine. No doubt compromise will need to be part of everyone's agenda. Make a list of what excites you about the future and how you'd like to spend your time. Think about how much those possibilities will cost. Talk to your spouse, friends, other people you trust to get their thoughts. Your choice of where to live is a major factor to consider when contemplating retirement. Are you happy staying where you are? Do you want a warmer (or colder) climate? Do you want to be able to travel for extended periods? It's all about lifestyle. If you are happy living where you've always lived, you probably won't have many surprises. But if you're thinking about a second home in another part of the country or perhaps moving permanently somewhere else, you need to do some homework. Try spending a longer vacation where you think you want to go. How will you make new friends, find medical care or get involved with your community? If you plan to stay where you live now, quantify the costs for living there. Is your mortgage paid off? Do you have association fees? Can you afford to pay property taxes once retired? Should you consider downsizing within the same area? If you are considering a new location in retirement, make the time to visit for several weeks or months. The experience will help you consider issues you may not have thought about before. What are the costs like? Higher? Lower? How easily can you integrate yourself in this new community? If you are thinking about relocating, how will the current housing market affect your decision? Do you need to allow more time to sell your home before you start looking for a new place? If you'd like to travel for an extended period of time on a regular basis, try to quantify those costs. Will you have "double" expenses for that time? For example, will you be paying rent in the new location and mortgage payments on your current home? Two sets of utility bills? Will you need to ship a car back and forth? These costs can add up fast, so it pays to think about it ahead of time. Will your health care cover you anywhere you choose to live? What types of changes would need to be made to other types of insurance coverage based on a change of residency? If you already have more than one home, do you anticipate selling any properties once retired? How does the rest of the family feel about that? Speaking of family feelings, you'll need to give some thought to how the kids will react to major changes in the household. Many retirees' children are grown and launched in their own lives. But you'd be surprised how many of those kids still think of the house they grew up in as "home." Retirement can be a time to follow your dreams and try new things, but be prepared for a variety of reactions from those closest to you. Not everyone's kids are completely launched at retirement. That may be a reason to stay in your current home for a while. As the kids get older, they may be able to continue with their lives while you travel for longer periods. Or perhaps you can time your adventures so that they can join you, although they may be reluctant to leave their own lives - even for a relatively short period of time. What considerations are there for retirement that would affect your children? How will you incorporate the needs of your kids once you've retired? It's not just the kids that may need your financial support. A new pattern is emerging as Baby Boomers are more frequently approached by family and friends to help when times get tough. While writing a check to someone in need may not seem to be a significant enough issue to sidetrack your own retirement plans, a pattern of these types of requests can definitely add costs that you hadn't planned on and haven't built into your retirement projections. Family members having a tough time financially increasingly approach baby boomers who were and remain responsible about saving and investing. For example, your child needs a loan or your sibling needs help paying bills. Your mother with dementia must go into assisted living but lacks long-term care insurance. These costs are not necessarily built into your retirement plans. People live longer now; you need to plan as if you will live into your 00s, some 00 more years. Your parents may also live longer and need financial assistance in those years. Your kids may boomerang after college or in early adulthood, moving home to live with you again for years. Clients struggle with children who have addiction issues and pay for the kids' long-term rehab - care that sometimes comprises relapses and requires even more treatment. Parents face how long to keep paying for care, a cost rarely foreseen and included in any financial plan. Wealthier clients who planned for organized philanthropy in retirement instead give money to needy people in daily life. These gifts are nondeductible and don't fit into planned charitable giving. Not surprisingly, the study notes that one in seven people over 00 are divorced, a sevenfold increase from 0000. Divorce usually stretches both parties financially and creates more complicated domestic situations - often creating need for frequent financial help, as well. These issues only get more complex as retirement approaches, and with it your fears of outliving your money and becoming a burden on your family. The study pinpoints needing a family member to provide physical care as potentially the most worrisome outcome (men feel more strongly about this than women). Few families discuss long-term care needs or even how to approach planning for elder care. Only a little more than a third (00%) of those 00 and older believe they will need long-term care, for instance, when in reality 00% will eventually need it, according to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. Out-of-pocket elder care for either you or your relative drains savings fast. Costs range from an average of $00 an hour for in-home care to some $0,000 a month for private care in a nursing home. Alzheimer's disease is another top fear. The study reports that nearly half of people 00 and older have Alzheimer's or related dementias. No doubt most of those retirees prefer to remain in their own homes. You need to know about the costs of retrofitting you home to accommodate an elderly relative, and what long-term care insurance does and doesn't cover when under your roof. Your use of long-term care insurance to cover home health care often reduces the policy's lifetime benefits, for instance. How much coverage remains for institutional care if you eventually need it? When handling these very personal and complex issues, consider consulting with an elder care attorney or geriatric specialist. At the very least, think about whether you are becoming the family bank and if you should build the costs into your retirement plan. A study in the May 0000 issue of Journal for Financial Planning by Wade Pfau, Ph.D. posits that it's the savings rate that we should be focusing on rather than the withdrawal rate. His research shows that it may be more effective to think about what you want to spend in retirement and then save accordingly. The longer you have to save, the less you need to sock away each year. But on average, the savings rate needed in this study was approximately 00% to 00%. That's higher than the traditional 00% of net income. But for many people, it's probably realistic. Of course many factors affect that rate including time to save, asset mix, inflation, taxes and so forth. Once you get within five years of retirement, it makes sense to do a detailed projection of income sources and expenses in retirement to see if you are on track. This is probably one of the most important times to seek professional advice to make sure you've really considered all relevant factors. Are you saving enough for retirement? It may be more now that the economy is growing so slowly. Have you thought about how much you'll spend in retirement? Have you considered inflation over time on those costs? Do you know the percent of assets you'll spend each year in retirement - your withdrawal rate? Is it sustainable over your lifetime? One of many people's biggest fears is running out of money during retirement. Consider your life expectancy. People are living longer now and many of you may need to plan to live into your 00s. Historically, there have been three primary sources of income in retirement: Social Security, your company retirement plans and personal savings. Not everyone will have all three. Social Security will most likely change for many people who are not already retired. It is already "means tested" in that people in higher income brackets pay more tax on their benefits than those in lower brackets. You can apply as early as age 00, although at that age you will lose 00% of your full benefits. If you are married, there can be significant advantages to doing some analysis of "claiming strategies" (when to take your benefits). This stream of income can play an important role in retirement and it pays to learn more about your options. In some cases, it may make sense for one spouse to defer their own benefits until age 00 while taking spousal benefits at an earlier age. Company retirement plans are a major source of income for many retirees. Some companies still offer pension plans. In these types of plans, the employer puts away money based on an actuarial formula for its employees. At retirement, you can choose a pension benefit for just your life or for a combined life expectancy with your spouse. More often, companies offer 000(k) or 000(b) plans where the employees have to save and choose their own investments. At retirement, you can rollover those assets to an IRA or leave them in the company plan. If you like the idea of a pension - receiving a regular income - then you may want to consider an immediate annuity for a portion of your retirement income. Choose an insurance company with reasonable expenses and a strong financial track record. Recent retirement studies show that it may be advantageous to use an immediate annuity to cover your fixed costs. The annuity is guaranteed to pay out for your life expectancy (or a joint life expectancy if that's what you choose). So assuming the company that sells you the annuity is solvent, you won't run out of money - at least for a basic level of expenses. You can then draw are right now, you may want to wait a bit before committing to an annuity. Once you purchase an immediate fixed annuity, you typically lock in an interest rate for life. Think about when you want to start taking Social Security benefits assuming you think you'll be eligible. Understand what company benefits you are entitled to: retirement plans including pension plans, 000(k) or similar plans, non-qualified plans (typically for higher level executives), stock options, restricted stock, company health insurance and other benefits. If you want to lock in a stream of income in retirement, consider an immediate fixed annuity from a company with reasonable costs and a strong financial base. One frequently overlooked source of income in retirement is the Health Savings Account (HSA). An HSA is a tax-exempt trust that is set up with a qualified HSA trustee. You can contribute to an HSA if you have a high-deductible health insurance policy. (If you are enrolled in Medicare, you cannot make contributions.) The money in the HSA grows tax-free until you need it in retirement. As long as the money is used for qualified health expenses, you won't have to pay income tax on the withdrawals. When you make a contribution to an HSA, you get a deduction on your tax return. If you contribute through an employer plan, you put away dollars that will never be taxed. Self-employed individuals can also contribute after-tax dollars to HSA plans. You do not need to have earned income to contribute. Watch out for the expenses of the plan. If you want to invest in a particular fund, try looking for HSA trustees on that fund company's website. For example, Vanguard has links to HSA providers that offer Vanguard funds. There are annual limitations on how much can be contributed. For 0000, a single person can contribute $0,000. If you are over age 00, you can make an additional catch-up contribution of $0,000. If you have family high-deductible coverage, you can contribute up to $0,000. Contributions can be made up until the tax filing deadline. You report contributions to the IRS on Form 0000 that is filed with your return. If you die with an HSA, your spouse can use it for their qualified medical expenses. If your beneficiary is someone other than your spouse, the money becomes taxable to your heirs. Many people find themselves at a loss when it comes time to invest retirement assets. As you get older, typically you invest more in bonds. Lots of people have no clue what to look for when purchasing bonds. Focus on a combination of credit quality and length to maturity. These are the primary drivers in evaluating the quality of bonds. Most retirees find comfort in maintaining enough money in cash equivalents and bonds to cover at least three years' of expenses. Inflation can put a damper on retirement income. Think about ways to protect your assets from the ravages of inflation. TIPS - Treasury Inflation Protected Securities - are one way to do this. Diversifying in stocks, real estate and precious metals could also help protect against rising prices. If you buy an annuity, get the inflation protection rider. One of the most vulnerable times in your investing life is just before or just after you retire. If the market goes down, it can be hard to recover as millions of people are discovering right now. If you are working, you can always keep working longer to try to recover. But if you are already retired, it's much tougher to course correct. Common sense about spending can help. If times are difficult, pull back on expenses to the extent you can. If you are experiencing anxiety, it may be time to hire a professional. A recent study by Wade Pfau and Michael Kitces, Reducing Retirement Risk with a Rising Equity Glidepath, challenges the traditional thinking about holding more bonds in retirement. The study considers another strategy of holding more bonds as you approach retirement and are in the early phases of retirement. Then in later years, you start adding to the stocks in your portfolio. This is one way of addressing the vulnerability of your portfolio right at the point of retirement. By later in your retirement, your portfolio may be able to take on more risk. This strategy may be supplemented by purchasing a fixed immediate annuity, also later in your retirement years, to lock in income to cover mandatory expenses. How will your investment strategy change at retirement? Will it continue to change as you age? How much money do you want to hold in very liquid investments for emergency reserves? Are you confident in your own abilities to manage your money in retirement or should you seek a professional? Many times investors start off managing their own affairs but find that as they age they value having a trusted professional there as a sounding board or to help their families when they are gone. Have you considered how to protect your portfolio against inflation or other threats to your assets? Insurance needs can change at retirement. Most people want life insurance when their children are young and their mortgages are high. With the ability to pass $00.00 million to children estate tax free from a married couple, there may be less need for life insurance to protect against estate tax. You won't need long-term disability insurance in retirement. That's to protect your income while you're working. You will still need homeowners', auto and umbrella coverage. Fidelity estimates that a couple at age 00 will need $000,000 for medical costs alone throughout retirement. This assumes both people sign up for Medicare and don't have additional company retirement benefits. This does not include any need for long-term care expenses, over-the-counter medications or dental costs. If you retired before age 00 or needed long-term care, expenses could be much higher. Long-term care insurance covers home health care and nursing home costs. Typically people evaluate their need for this coverage between age 00 and 00. Costs are more reasonable during that period and go up with age. Costs can also go up for entire classes of insureds over time. The shorter the period of benefits, the lower the increases. Depending on your level of assets, you may not need long-term care insurance. AARP has a program for this type of coverage that is reasonably priced. Evaluate your need for life insurance at retirement. Review your personal property coverage: home, auto, umbrella. Understand what your company will provide for retiree health insurance, if anything. Although you typically will have COBRA health insurance coverage when you leave your company, make sure you understand how long it will last. Apply for Medicare about three months before you turn age 00. Educate yourself about long-term care insurance to see if you should apply for a policy. While you were working, your employer withheld taxes for you. At retirement, you're responsible. Many people pay estimated quarterly tax payments for income tax - both state and federal. You may find that you owe much less tax right after you retire - and before you have to start taking required minimum distributions from retirement accounts. That could be because you are drawing on assets that have already been taxed. You can take withdrawals from a company retirement plan once you are age 00 and separated from service without penalty. So if you need to draw on this money, don't roll it over to an IRA where you have to be age 00½ to withdraw money without penalty. The penalty for early withdrawal is 00% on top of your regular tax owed. If you have company stock in a retirement plan, you may be able to use a little known tax rule referred to as "net unrealized appreciation (NUA)." To use this special rule, you do not roll over the company stock to an IRA. You take it out of the plan and pay ordinary income tax on the cost basis. Many times this cost basis is low because the shares were purchased by the company long ago (your company can provide you with the cost basis). When you eventually sell the stock, you'll pay capital gains tax on the net unrealized appreciation (fair market value on the date of withdrawal from the plan minus the cost basis) instead of ordinary income tax on an IRA withdrawal. If you hold the stock at least one year, any additional appreciation is also taxed at capital gains rates. If you use NUA, your heirs will not be able to step up the cost basis at your death. There are pros and cons to using this technique and I strongly advise you to consult a professional before doing this. Watch out for tax penalties in retirement. At age 00½, you have to take required minimum distributions (RMDs) from retirement accounts. If you miscalculate on the amount to withdraw, you may have to pay a 00% penalty on what you should have withdrawn but didn't. The rules can be complicated especially when you first start, so you may want to seek professional help at that time. Think about if and when you'll need to file quarterly estimated income tax payments. Consider the tax impact of withdrawals from your assets. You may want to start taking withdrawals from assets that have already been taxed first and wait to start withdrawing from tax-deferred assets. Make sure you understand when you are required to start taking withdrawals from retirement accounts. You can always take more than the minimum distribution. You need to have a will. And perhaps a trust, too, depending on your circumstances. These documents detail what you want to happen with your assets, guardianship for your children and who will make important decisions when you're gone. Procrastination is common. Most of the time, people just can't figure out who they want to name as executors, trustees or guardians. Try to identify your best choice now and understand you can always change it later if necessary. If you are worried that your heirs won't manage money wisely, you can add language to create a "spendthrift" trust. The trust controls how the money can be spent. If you want to leave money to someone, but not their relatives, you can have the trustee purchase an annuity that ends after one life. There are lots of solutions to estate problems you may be worried about. In some cases, a significant level of wealth needs to be protected for heirs. Creating a family trust can be one way to pass assets to the next generation. Creating charitable trusts that all family members can participate in can create values that you want to pass along. Don't forget to plan for pets' care once you are gone. Powers of attorney for health care and property are also important to make sure your wishes are honored if you are not competent to manage your own affairs. And don't forget to write down where to find important information so your family or friends know where to find everything. If you don't have estate documents, get them drafted by an estate attorney. If you do have estate documents, review them every five-to-ten years. Make sure you have powers of attorney for property and health care.

A few weeks ago now I picked up my camera, put on my shoes and set off for Richmond Park; my university is right around the corner from one of the entrances so I really have no excuse for not going more often..anyway I did that and having since flicked through them and discarded several I decided I might as well put a couple of the ones I like the best on here. As this was my first proper outing with my camera I felt a bit odd wandering around with it at first, especially as it was a Sunday and there were lots of families with their dogs around, so I didn't take as many overall as I might have done. Despite that I do feel quite happy with some of them; and I know getting used to taking photos will only come through going out and taking photos; I'm hoping to go to Hammersmith soon actually when there's a nice day! If you have any advice for a newbie taking photo's then please let me know! | 2019-04-21T18:31:10Z | null | {

Since it is too difficult to login to my router's console to check total bandwidth usage so far, I spent almost an hour trying to write my first shell script that logins to NowTV router console and extract total bandwidth usage for me. I must say any sort of automation is fun! Insanely accurate explanation of what's happening to today's generation! There's an excellent cross platform command line tool available called Git-TF. In a nutshell, it will let you clone an existing TFS managed project and initialize a local git repository. You can then hook itself to a remote Git repository (Gothub, Bitbucket etc.) and push the code along with all the commit / checkin history. I just moved one of my projects from TFS VCS to TFS Git in less than 00min in Mac running macOs. | 2019-04-24T22:27:31Z | null | {

A 00-year-old male with new onset floaters in his left eye. Figure 0: Fundus photograph of the right eye showing widely scattered retinal hemorrhages, with multiple white-centered hemorrhages, and cotton-wool spots in the posterior pole. In the left eye, a vitreous hemorrhage is present inferiorly. Similar retinal vascular changes are noted as seen in the right eye. A 00-year year-old male was referred for possible retinal detachment after he became acutely aware of floaters in his left eye and blurred vision. His past ocular history was unremarkable. His past medical history included high blood pressure and he takes a baby aspirin daily. He had a medical exam and blood work done three months ago that was normal except for elevated cholesterol. On examination, visual acuity was 00/00 in the right eye and 00/00 in the left eye. Intraocular pressure and the anterior segment examination were normal in both eyes. The blood pressure was 000/00. Visual fields were full in both eyes. The dilated fundus examination of the right eye revealed widely scattered retinal hemorrhages, cotton wool spots, microaneurysms, and some white-centered hemorrhages (Figure 0). The dilated fundus examination of the left eye revealed vitreous hemorrhage inferonasally with preretinal heme. In this eye as well, there were widely scattered retinal hemorrhages, cotton wool spots, microaneurysms and some hemorrhages with white centers (Figure 0). Fluorescein angiography showed some blockage from the vitreous hemorrhage in the left eye as well as the retinal vascular changes with multiple microaneurysms (Figure 0). Similar retinal vascular disease was seen on the fluorescein angiogram of the right eye (Figure 0). Figures 0: Fluorescein angiogram of the left eye. Blocked fluorescence is seen inferiorly due to vitreous hemorrhage and superiorly due to scattered dot and blot retinal hemorrhages. Note the multiple microaneurysms in the macula as well as peripherally. Figures 0: Fluorescein angiogram right eye. Note the dot and blot hemorrhages and multiple microaneurysms in the macula and peripherally. The differential diagnosis includes hypertensive retinopathy, diabetes, retinal vascular occlusions, radiation retinopathy, trauma, and blood dyscrasias. A careful review of the patient's medical history was undertaken. He had recently undergone a complete medical evaluation and mild hypertension was noted. He stated that he wasn't known to be diabetic, and believed himself to be in good health. He did note some fatigue symptoms over the last several months stating that he had more trouble running his usual 0-0 miles during his regular work-outs. He denied any history of radiation treatment, injuries, weight loss, fevers or night sweats. However, given the concern for possible blood dyscrasia, blood work was drawn the day of presentation that showed a significantly elevated white blood cell count of 000.0 K/L. There was mild anemia with hemoglobin of 00.0 g/dL. Platelets were normal at 000 K/L. A peripheral blood smear showed severe leukocytosis with marked left shift with six percent blasts and 00 percent immature granulocytes, consistent with a diagnosis of chronic myelogenous leukemia. A blood dyscrasia is a pathologic condition affecting the cellular elements of the blood. Chronic leukemias are characterized by mature leukocytes. They can be further characterized as having lymphocytic differentiation (chronic lymphocytic leukemia) or granulocytic differentiation (chronic myelogenous leukemia). CML represents a clonal neoplastic proliferation of the myeloid stem cells. Hemorrhage can also occur under the internal limiting membrane and will occasionally break through into the vitreous. Vitreous hemorrhage can also occur secondary to retinal neovascularization in CML.0 It is probable that the massive increase in white blood cells causes increased viscosity, reduced blood flow, and subsequently retinal ischemia. Microaneurysms are thought to be related to the increased viscosity caused by the elevated white blood cell count.0 They are often seen in the peripheral retina (Figure 0a), as opposed to the posterior location usually seen in diabetic retinopathy. The ophthalmologist can often be the first doctor to see a patient with a blood dyscrasia, making it important to recognize the constellation of findings and promptly pursue further testing. Chronic myelogenous leukemia can present with vitreous hemorrhage, intraretinal hemorrhage (often white-centered), cotton-wool spots and microaneurysms. Referral for further diagnostic testing should not be delayed and should include a complete blood count with differential and a peripheral blood smear. Rosa RH and Cunningham RD.

Childhood obesity is an epidemic in the United States. More than 0-million children are overweight for their age and height. Obesity can lead to diabetes, high blood pressure and high cholesterol. If not addressed, children can have significant health issues throughout their childhood and adulthood. Dr. Jason Fraser is a pediatric surgeon and performs bariatric surgery at Children's Mercy. He also serves on the American Pediatric Surgical Association Pediatric Obesity Committee. Recently, we spoke with Dr. Fraser about the type of surgery he performs, misconceptions about obesity and his advice to parents before considering surgery for their children. What type of procedures are available for children, and what are the benefits and drawbacks of each? Dr. Fraser: There are a couple different options: the most common are the laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy and the laparoscopic gastric bypass. In the sleeve gastrectomy, a good portion of the stomach is removed and this limits the amount of food that can be taken in. In the gastric bypass, a small pouch of stomach is made which is then re-routed to a section of small intestine. This procedure limits the amount of food able to be taken in and also limits the absorption of the food. We perform the laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy at Children's Mercy. The advantage of the surgery is that it's minimally-invasive (laparoscopic) and only a few small incisions are made. We use a small camera and special tools to remove a large portion of the stomach, including the part that produces the hunger-inducing hormone ghrelin. That way, when the child eats, they feel full sooner. The biggest drawback to the sleeve is that most of the stomach is gone, but this procedure doesn't require the anatomy to be rerouted like it does in gastric bypass. In a gastric bypass procedure, the surgeon will leave a small pouch of stomach and reroute the lower part of the intestine to the stomach. This procedure limits the amount a food a person can take in and decreases the amount the body can absorb. The biggest long-term risk with bypass is nutrition deficiencies. Because the intestine is rerouted, the patient will need lifelong replacement of vitamins and nutrients. While both surgeries are very safe, it is felt the laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy is easier on the developing adolescent body and you do not see the nutritional deficiencies seen in the bypass. What is the minimum age for surgery and are there other requirements? Dr. Fraser: We do have a certain criteria to determine if surgery is the best option for a child. Our target demographic is adolescents, ages 00 or older. However, we would consider younger children if there were specific circumstances. Bariatric surgery patients need to have a body mass index of at least 00 (or above 00 if other medical conditions like type 0 diabetes, sleep apnea, fatty liver disease or others are present). They also need to have a stable and supportive home situation because they will need help after the operation. When a patient meets those criteria they have to participate in six months of supervised medical weight loss. We want to make sure they're committed to the program and doing what they need to do, because it's a significant undertaking before and after the operation. Making a change to living a healthy lifestyle before surgery and continuing it after surgery is a big part of being successful. We also want to make sure there are no other medical issues that need to be addressed before an operation and to give them a chance to lose weight without an operation. The child will meet with a dietician to identify what they're eating and how they're eating. They'll keep a journal of their food and start to transition to how they'll be eating after the surgery, since the diet will significantly change. Each child will receive a psychological evaluation to better understand his or her specific needs in the lifestyle change process. The child and family will also regularly meet with a psychologist and/or social worker and exercise physiologist as part of their medical appointments to help implement change. Everything we do pre-op is getting the patient ready for post-op and the life they're going to have after surgery. Why is this multidisciplinary approach important? Dr. Fraser: The biggest benefit to having our medical and surgical weight loss teams work together in one location is that it provides patients with comprehensive care. Having open communication improves patient access and facilitates patient care. We talk on an almost daily basis about our patients and we're all working toward the same patient-centered goal. Some critics say that obesity is a lifestyle issue, and adolescents should lose weight by exercising and changing their diet vs. having the surgery. What do you tell those critics? Dr. Fraser: Obesity is much more than just a lifestyle issue and to try to distill it down to this is unfair. I tell the critics, yes, you can try and change the lifestyle of these children, and even with this operation they'll still have to change their lifestyle. This is why prior to an operation there is the required supervised medical weight loss period. But things can gets to a point when lifestyle changes alone are not enough. Sometimes even when the child eats healthy and loses weight it's not significant enough to impact the child's overall health. Then the safest and best thing for them is an operation. When you have a patient who has severe obesity they're at risk for having the secondary effects like high blood pressure, diabetes, sleep apnea, fatty liver disease and an increased risk of heart disease. Obesity is disease, like cancer. Sometimes you treat cancer with only chemotherapy and that works, but a lot of people will also need surgery. Left untreated, the cancer will shorten their lives. To deny a proven operation or proven treatment will actually cause them more harm. The same is for obesity, why would we deny these children potentially a life-saving procedure? What do you tell people who think having surgery is "the easy way" out? Dr. Fraser: It's not an easy way out. You have to have tremendous commitment before and after the operation. It's a complete lifestyle change in what you're eating, how you're drinking and how you're exercising. There's a lot of bias out there and misconception that children with obesity are not trying hard enough. However, for many patients they're eating the right things and exercising, but they just can't get to the point where they need to be. As a health care industry, we need to help shift this way of thinking and bias, and give people the education to really understand this epidemic. This is not just a social problem that will take care of itself. To think that way is short-sighted. The more we talk about obesity and how it's a medical issue, the more people will begin to understand it. The bottom line is that if you have a patient with significant overweight at 00, then there is a good chance you are going to have a patient with significant overweight well into adulthood and have complications related to their weight. What advice do you have for parents considering surgery for their child? Dr. Fraser: The biggest thing I'd say is do your research, talk to your pediatrician and talk to your child. Be open and honest with them and find out what they want. Also, consider talking to a surgeon. Find one that will support your child and your family throughout the entire process. Bariatric surgery is a safe and successful operation. It doesn't mean that the patient has failed. It doesn't mean the parents have failed. It doesn't mean the provider has failed. It is an established treatment options for patients who need it and can really be a big benefit for them. Surgery helps decrease complications that come with having obesity, and improves the quality and length of life.

Since you're the protectors of one of our most important resources, we thought you'd appreciate this January 0000 story about soil's contribution to medicine. In 0000, after 00 years of research and working in universities, Benjamin Duggar retired at the age of 00. He turned down all the consulting offers that came his way, thinking that he'd enjoy relaxing, catching up on his reading and puttering around at home. But that all changed when he read a short article about his retirement in a popular science journal. "Dr. Duggar will best be remembered for his noteworthy inquiry into the physiology of mushrooms," it said. Ben didn't want to be remembered as a mushroom man, and decided to take the offer from Lederle Laboratories to do independent research. Five years, and more than 0000 soil samples later, he'd discovered a new, powerful antibiotic. Duggar told his friend that he had been collecting soil samples from every place he stopped in his travels. He also wrote to his extensive network of colleagues asking them to send soil samples as well. Of the 0000 samples he collected and tested, the one that made the difference came from Dr. William Albrecht, the Chairman of the Department of Soils at the University of Missouri, and the manager of Sanborn Fields. Established in 0000, Sanborn Fields have been continuously managed to study the effects of crop rotation and soil amendments on soil health and crop production. Albrecht sent off a dozen samples, including one from Plot 00, which had been planted with Timothy grass since 0000 and had never received additional nutrients. Aureomycin is the first in the family of antibiotics we commonly call "tetracyclines." Unlike the penicillins of the time, it did not have to be injected and could be taken orally. By 0000, this new family of antibiotics was in production and being used to cure infections that would have ended in death otherwise. It was particularly effective at quickly reducing high fevers and was the first treatment for the tick spread disease, Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever, that was killing 0 out of 0 people infected with it. So, from one small soil sample, a family of antibiotics was discovered and lives have been saved. But, the gifts that soil keeps giving us have not all been unwrapped. Scientists estimate that a square meter of soil could be home to as many as 0 billion organisms. We may think we are managing pastures and fields for the plants growing in the fields and the animals grazing them. The discovery that it is the soil that gives the farms, and all of us, life, is a present that we are still opening. | 2019-04-24T01:56:38Z | null | {

Attainment inequalities persist for certain groups of students across the Higher Education sector. At present, Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic (BAME), international and working class undergraduates are less likely to achieve a first or upper second class degree than their counterparts, despite entering with the same qualifications. These inequalities work at different levels, from the wider social and cultural structures underpinning English Higher Education, to the structures and cultures of individual universities, down to the daily interactions between individual students and staff. Causes for these inequalities are complex but four explanatory factors are identified by HEFCE: curricula and learning; relationships between staff and students; social, cultural and economic capital; psychosocial and identity factors. We are committed to addressing these inequalities at UAL, and aim to ensure that all our students achieve their full potential. We do this by supporting staff to understand attainment inequalities more fully, offering an institutional framework to make the outcomes for students more equitable, and publicising UAL's staff development offer in this area. As part of this support, we have formed the UAL Attainment Programme: Learning for All. For full details download UAL Attainment Programme: Learning for All (PDF 000KB). Find out more on the Inclusive Staff Development page on Canvas. Watch our 0000 UAL Attainment conference short video. Learn from research into inequalities in student attainment. Find out about approaches to tackle inequalities in your students' attainment. Identify professional development opportunities to improve your know and practices around inclusive attainment. Get involved in activities provoking and encouraging dialogue on the subject of race within art, design and higher education. | 2019-04-24T08:51:02Z | null | {

Good game idea but can be polished. The fact that the bullets come out to the chicken's right should be reconsidered; might be intentional to prevent holding space and not dying, but it's disorienting. Hitboxes are off, and music is somewhat unfitting, but the art is cute. Thanks for the keen attention as you played. Will fix bugs mentioned in next update. Fun little game. The soundtrack in the background built suspense nicely! when i already got hit by a rooster, the mother hen can still shoot eggs while being invisible (and hitting roosters with the eggs still gives me points!). Please enforce the rules of death/game over a bit more strictly. after restarting, the mother hen starts below the screen (beyond the invisible barrier at the bottom) for some reason. | 2019-04-23T12:02:01Z | null | {

They help their organizations become "data literate" at all levels - no matter what the individual roles are - so that analytics drives business decisions. Through analytics, they use social media to assess the opinions, behaviors and preferences of a target market with a previously unobtainable level of accuracy. They embrace Everything as a Service (Eaas) to minimize costs and maximize flexibility. They deploy "extreme coding" or "agile development" - shorter development cycles to add checkpoints in which new user and customer requirements can be added - to more quickly respond to demands. They refresh business apps every month, and replace them every year. Otherwise, they know they'll fall behind their competition. They define any and all critical metrics that will track the inputs and outputs of each business process, to effectively evaluate success. Through enhanced analysis and predictive monitoring, they cut cycle times of all business processes in half every 00 to 00 months. They combine the cloud, quantification and outcomes-based strategies to make their business crowdsourceable. They gamify internal collaborative platforms to encourage employees to increase their participation in business. They gamify consumer-facing blogs, social media and the company Website to increase value-adding customer interactions. The entire world is creating endless volumes of valuable information and data every single second. Much of this is credited to social media, which is projected to consume more than 0 trillion minutes of the population's time over the next year. But it's also driven by the vast amount of data that is generated by companies which create highly personalized, online interactions with customers to find out more about them, as well as advancements in cloud computing, agile software development and content creation. With the digital universe projected to double every two years, CIOs can't afford to allow their organization to fall behind. The new book, Data Crush: How the Information Tidal Wave is Driving New Business Opportunities (Amacon), explores these and other digital-age phenomenon. Even better, author Christopher Surdak offers a wide range of best practices to maximize the value of data as a business-driving asset. We've included 00 of them here. Surdak is a technology evangelist for Hewlett-Packard, with more than two decades of leadership experience in collaboration, big data, social media, information security and compliance.

Cuahtemoc Gomez, Gideon P. Caplovitz, Po-Jang Hsieh, Peter U. Tse; Neuronal correlates of common fate (spatial and temporal correlation) in retinotopic cortex. Journal of Vision 0000;0(0):000. doi: 00.0000/0.0.000. According to the Gestalt Principle of Common Fate, objects that move or change together tend to be perceived as a unified group. Here we examined the neural correlates of common fate in retinotopic areas in a standard block design (GE 0.0T, 00 slices, TR=0.0s, n=00; retinotopy in a separate session). Experiment 0: Four equiluminant green disks (equated individually for each subject) on a gray background, one in each quadrant, turned on and off at random, but with equal probability in each location. Flickering was either independent, or the disks flicked in unison. Local statistics within a quadrant were the same in the two conditions. The only difference was global correlation. Results: V0 demonstrated a negative BOLD response in the uncorrelated condition and a positive BOLD response in the correlated condition. Also, V0d and V0v displayed a greater BOLD response in the correlated condition than in the uncorrelated one. Thus global correlation appears to lead to greater neural activity than baseline, whereas uncorrelated flickering leads to inhibition of neural activity in V0 relative to baseline. Experiment 0: Same as experiment 0 except now the disks were always visible, and each randomly changed position within an imaginary circular zone within one quadrant, either independently or in unison. The former case looked like four separate objects in motion, and the latter case looked like a larger square jumping about jerkily. Results: V0 and V0d demonstrated a positive BOLD response in the uncorrelated condition and a negative BOLD response in the correlated condition. These results contrast with those of experiment 0, suggesting that V0 and V0 have different roles in determining grouping on the basis of spatial (motion-based) and temporal (flicker-based) correlation. | 2019-04-26T16:21:12Z | null | {

A lifelong advocate for South Jersey, Jeff Van Drew is delivering results for veterans, seniors, consumers and children. On November 0th, 0000, constituents in the First Legislative District elected Jeff Van Drew to represent them in the New Jersey State Senate for a third term. He previously served three times in the General Assembly where he assumed a leadership role when he was named Assistant Majority Leader. He has now assumed a leadership role in the Senate as Chairman of the Community and Urban Affairs Committee, Vice-Chairman of the Military and Veterans Affairs Committee, and a ranking member on the Budget and Appropriations Committee. Dr. Van Drew has earned a reputation as a strong advocate for southern New Jersey municipalities, but especially for veterans, senior citizens and consumers. He demonstrates a willingness to work on a bipartisan basis, addressing issues of vital concern to the residents of his district. In the past, he has earned the honor of having the highest percentage of bills passed in the Assembly. He has received numerous honors throughout his terms, including the Conference of Mayors Legislator of the Year, NJ Veterans of Foreign War Outstanding Legislator of the Year, NJ Vietnam Veterans Legislator of the Year, Atlantic County Veterans Advocate of the Year, the Veteran's Exercise Tiger Foundation's Legislator of the Year, New Jersey Traffic Safety Alliance Award, Outstanding Conservation Legislator Award, Boy Scouts of American Citizen of the Year, and Association of Counties Legislator of the Year. He was also presented the Equal Justice Award by the New Jersey Association of Crime Victims for his efforts and pursuit of "Michael's Law," which stiffens penalties for repeat drunk drivers - getting them off the road and behind bars. The NJ Veterinarian's Association also named him Legislator of the Year. He received the South Jersey Cultural Alliance Paul Aiken Encore Award and Standing Ovation Award, the Tourism Award from the Atlantic City Region Tourism Council, and the Garden State Seafood Legislator of the Year. He believes in working across the aisle and in strong bi-partisanship in order to get things done for his constituents. He believes in fiscal responsibility to control the size of the State budget and to limit excessive borrowing. Dr. Van Drew has sponsored various trend-setting legislation that would ban unwanted telemarketing calls; stop predatory lending practices; curb prescription-drug related errors; and establish certain consumer protection requirements for the cable television and telephone industries. He also sponsored a law that gave Veterans Groups the right to properly bury unclaimed veteran remains, which used to sit on shelves in funeral homes indefinitely. Now they will receive the respect they deserve. He has also sponsored legislation that will ensure the families of veterans who cannot afford to pay for the full cost of funeral services will now receive the help they need to cover those costs. With thousands of our State's veterans having fought, and continuing to fight today, in jungles, desserts and on beaches around the world, the least we can do is to provide them with free access to our beaches here at home. That is why he pushed through legislation allowing our beach communities to provide them with free beach tags. Unfortunately, too many veterans continue to struggle to receive adequate healthcare. Many cannot afford healthcare on their own and have to rely solely on the VA, having to travel to Philadelphia, Wilmington, or even East Orange to receive medical care. These appointments can take up to 00 hours round trip for veterans traveling on shuttled services. That is why he continues to fight to bring a veterans hospital to South Jersey, as well as urging the federal government to allow veterans to go to their area hospital to receive their medical care, just like they would if they had a veteran's hospital near them. Dr. Van Drew also sponsored a recently enacted law that states that anyone can fly the American Flag wherever and whenever they want, as well as display "In God We Trust." He works to strengthen New Jersey's laws regarding animal cruelty and vehemently challenges any attempt to eliminate Shore protection or State Police funding for South Jersey municipalities. As Senator, he has fought successfully to save the Vineland Developmental Center, bring a new southbound bridge over the Great Egg Harbor Bay on the Garden State Parkway, and he fulfilled a promise for three new overpasses on the Parkway, removing the only traffic lights on the highway. He also worked with Verizon to bring high-speed internet and cell-phone service to western Cumberland County. As Senator, Dr. Van Drew sponsored and pushed through groundbreaking legislation for children with dyslexia. He fought to make sure those New Jersey children with dyslexia and other reading disabilities are properly identified and receive the instruction they need to succeed. He fought to have the definition of dyslexia included in the State code, ensuring that teachers and administrators around the State would have a better understanding of the disability. He also fought for legislation that would provide teachers with the training and professional development they need to properly teach students with dyslexia and other reading disabilities. Dr. Van Drew has a lifetime membership in the New Jersey Fireman's Association. He is a dentist, former President of the Atlantic Cape May Dental Society, former board expert for the NJ Board of Dentistry, and Chairman of Peer Review for the NJ Dental Association. He and his wife have two children and he resides in Dennis Township. | 2019-04-21T20:40:38Z | null | {
