Unfair criteria are blocking access to nursing homes.
HEALTH AUTHORITIES (HAs) and social services are enforcing such strict eligibility criteria for nursing home care that patients 'practically have to be dead', a nursing home organisation claimed this week. |
Capacitive micromachined ultrasonic transducer (CMUT) devices are becoming increasingly popular in medical applications. For example, CMUT devices have been used to improve medical ultrasound imaging probes. CMUT devices have also been used to provide high-intensity focused ultrasound for use in medical therapy. Conventional CMUT devices are typically produced directly on a silicon substrate. For instance, conventional CMUT devices are often fabricated using a micro-electro-mechanical system (MEMS) manufacturing technique in which a release layer is etched out, leaving a free-standing membrane. The membrane is then used to transmit and receive ultrasonic signals. |
Q:
Finding the SHA1's of all objects in a commit git
Is there a way to retrieve all the SHA1's for all objects (blobs and trees) inside of a particular commit in git?
A:
I'm pretty sure that git rev-list will do what you want:
git rev-list --no-walk <commit> --objects
See the documentation on git rev-list for more information at http://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/docs/git-rev-list.html.
Edit: Added --no-walk as per Paŭlo Ebermann's suggestion; this will only show the objects for the given ref, without the ancestor commits.

A survey of parents' reactions to the diagnosis of an autistic spectrum disorder by a local service: access to information and use of services.
We conducted a postal survey of parents whose child had been diagnosed with an autistic spectrum disorder by a district diagnostic service. The service was regarded as having improved significantly following recent changes, but there were still shortcomings. Parents had obtained useful information from a range of other sources, including a parents' support group, school teachers, speech and language therapists, educational psychologists, the Internet, books and academic journals. Special units and schools were rated as the most useful source of support and treatment, but many other interventions were rated highly. Parents reported a diverse range of both negative and positive consequences of diagnosis, and many reported a change in their attitudes to diagnosis over time. Many expressed frustration with trying to get an early diagnosis, with the social, educational and health services, and with the way that autistic spectrum disorders are regarded by lay people and other parents. |

Hormone therapy in menopause: the plot thickens.
The termination of one of the trials in the Women's Health Initiative (WHI) study is causing turmoil in women using hormone therapy. Practitioners and patients alike are confronted with conflicting evidence about the safety and effectiveness of both estrogen therapy (ET) and hormone (estrogen/progestin) therapy (HT). Recent investigations of the estrogen receptor, the genome, and cellular cofactors have demonstrated the heterogeneity of molecular response to hormones. This implies a heterogeneous response in the individual as well and casts doubt on the validity of prior research. Recent experiments in monkeys have provided a possible explanation for the adverse effects of HT on the cardiovascular system that were detailed by the Heart and Estrogen/Progestin Replacement Study (HERS) and WHI studies. This article explores nuances of several key studies and discusses potential therapeutic options, including use of lower-dose estrogen, transdermal estrogen, selective estrogen-receptor modulators, and diminished use of progestin. |

Experimental erythrocyte autoimmunity. Specificity of autoantibodies of autoantibody-specific suppressor cells elicited by RBC from various strains of rats.
Autoantibodies and autoantibody-specific suppressor cells are produced in mice injected with RBC from rats. In this report it is shown, first, that the RBC from various strains of rats stimulate similar clones of auto-reactive B-cells. The evidence for this conclusion was obtained using antibodies eluted from the RBC and sera from mice positive in direct Coombs' tests. Autoantibodies elicited by RBC from any strain of rat were absorbed by RBC from all strains of rat tested but not by sheep RBC. Secondly, it is shown that spleen cells from mice injected with RBC of one strain of rat delayed autoantibody production elicited by RBC from syngeneic and allogeneic rats when transferred to syngeneic mice before the first injection of rat RBC. Serum antibody levels to rat RBC were not reduced. |

It’s true that Canadian land and real estate investors dislike the fact that they have to pay taxes at some point. The good news is that there are shrewd methods and tricks you can employ to have land taxes reduced. Before you achieve such a feat, you challenges and regulations to overcome. There is a particular procedure used by relevant authorities to calculate the values of your land and the amount of tax due on the same. If your municipality or jurisdiction makes it a tall order, you need to look for ways to contest your taxes.
Some landowners are not aware that they can easily access their land transfer tax ontario information from relevant authorities. When you get your tax report, you need to study it and evaluate how property assessors have reviewed your land or real estate asset over the years. If you notice inconsistencies regarding tax over the past years, you have the right to file complaints about re-evaluation. This is one way you can qualify for tax relief. You might think that assessors gets every bit right about your property. If there are mistakes, you have a right to be refunded or your land tax reviewed downwards.
Investing in land or real estate asset in Canada isn’t easy. There are priorities you need to weigh up. Often, investors forget that land tax is a top priority. Property taxes are recurrent on an annual basis, and you need to assess their impact in the longer run. If you want to pay less, avoid accumulating unpaid taxes. If you have to pay accrued penalties, it means you are incurring more expenses instead of enjoying tax relief on your property. To know more about mortgage, visit https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mortgage_loan.
Land or property assessors have a huge impact when it comes to the tax you have to pay. Since they have to visit your property, it helps to accompany them as they inspect it. You should walk with them and ensure they note down accurate details and features on your property. If you let them wander around unaccompanied, they may get some details wrong, and it could be the reason why your tax bill goes up. Remember, it’s wrong to deny an assessor access to your property. In some cases, the authorities assign an enormous tax bill on your account if you shut out an assessor.
As a land investor, it’s important to look for proper tax advice from reliable experts at Whichmortgage.ca. This will help you learn new strategies that will not only help you manage the asset in question, but it also helps you save a lot. |
In peer to peer communications system a pair of wireless terminals having a connection generally desires to exchange traffic signals. An approach of strictly defining a first set of air link resources reserved for traffic flow in a first direction and a second set of air link resources reversed for traffic flow in a second direction, said first and second sets being non-overlapping, leads to wasted resources when flow levels do not match the predefined sets. An approach of allowing either wireless terminal of the pair to transmit a traffic request as needed on a shared request resource can lead to collisions where neither request is recovered and/or approved resulting in the traffic resource, e.g., traffic segment, being requested being wasted. Accordingly, there is a need for improved methods and apparatus related to control signaling in a peer to peer wireless communications system.
It would be beneficial if methods and apparatus were developed which facilitated efficient control signaling related to peer to peer traffic signaling. In a peer to peer communications in which a pair of connected wireless terminals utilizes the same frequency band for both transmission and reception, it is desirable to avoid transmission collisions which tend to waste air link resources. Methods and apparatus that facilitate coordination between transmission and receptions of connected peers would be beneficial. Methods and apparatus which provide flexibility, allowing for different balances of directional traffic flows between a connected pair of wireless terminals at different times and/or are responsive to different priority considerations, would also be beneficial.
It would also be beneficial if at least some methods and apparatus provided for communicating additional information corresponding to a request to transmit peer to peer traffic signals. It would be advantageous if the additional information could be communicated using a resource that was designated to be utilized for another purpose when such a request was not communicated. |
Fluctuating asymmetry and condition in golden shiner (Notemigonus crysoleucas) and channel catfish (Ictalurus punctatus) reared in sublethal concentrations of isopropyl methylphosphonic acid.
Fluctuating asymmetry (FA; small, random differences between the left and right sides of a bilateral character) has been related to embryological stress during development. Some populations exhibit positive relations between FA and exposure to toxicants during development. The United States has agreed to demilitarize chemical warfare agents in accordance with the Chemical Weapons Convention Treaty. Isopropyl methylphosphonic acid (IMPA), the main hydrolysis product of sarin, could be introduced accidentally into the environment during demilitarization. The present study examined the use of FA as a biomarker of developmental stress caused by sublethal exposures to IMPA. A suite of morphometric and meristic traits were measured in two fish species exposed to IMPA. Significant differences were found in composite FA among groups of channel catfish (Ictalurus punctatus) exposed to sublethal concentrations of IMPA during development. No differences were found in composite FA among groups of golden shiner (Notemigonus crysoleucas) exposed to IMPA. No relation was found between individual relative condition and FA in channel catfish or golden shiner. |
Referring expressions and structural language abilities in children with specific language impairment: A pragmatic tolerance account.
Specific language impairment (SLI) has traditionally been characterized as a deficit of structural language (specifically grammar), with relative strengths in pragmatics. In this study, comprehensive assessment of production, comprehension, and metalinguistic judgment of referring expressions revealed that children with SLI have weaknesses in both structural and pragmatic language skills relative to age-matched peers. Correlational analyses highlight a relationship between their performance on the experimental tasks and their structural language ability. Despite their poor performance on the production and comprehension tasks, children with SLI were able to recognize pragmatically under-informative reference relative to other types of utterance, although they imposed a less severe penalty on such expressions than typically developing peers, a pattern that supports the pragmatic tolerance account. Our novel methodology (which probed structural abilities from both the speaker's and hearer's perspectives as well as metalinguistic and pragmatic skills in the same sample) challenges the assumption that pragmatic errors stem from deficits in social cognition and instead supports recent findings suggesting that when the impact of structural language is isolated, pragmatic deficits may be resolved. |
Q:
How to set camera to get a tanned look?
How do you set your camera in settings to TAKE photos that come out with the skin looking more tanned and bronzed than in real-life? Instead of changing the photo afterwards. Preferably Canon, but any other camera is fine.
Something like this:
A:
You don't.
You might be tempted to change the overall color cast by lying to the camera about the ambient white balance, but that will be very tricky to get right and to reliably repeat.
The answer is to do this in post-processing. The job of the camera is to capture as much information about the scene as possible. If that is done well, then you have a lot of latitude about how to present some subset of that information in your final picture. That could include masking and performing operations on only parts of the image, for example. That is impossible to explain to a camera how to do, especially before the picture is taken.
Cameras are not for retouching or as a substitute for post-processing. Some consumer-oriented cameras do have limited processing capabilities. However, these are for appealing to the kind of people that buy a point and shoot in the first place. These features are for the unsophisticated consumer that actually believes "just press this magic button to make great pictures". These features are also a very poor subset of what is available in any decent post-processing app.
A:
Let us try to "Correct" the image to reverse engineer it:
The first visible thing is that the image is strongly underexposed. It has a low saturation on the colors.
Viewing human skin tones on a chromatic circle turns to be in one zone in the hue view. I do not see a real deviation on the hue of the skin. So my first attempt would not be tweaking the white balance.
But there is a bit of green on the shadows. This green indicates to me that the effect is a post process. modifying the curves.
I would be tempted to play with underexposed images, but with the drawback of losing detail on the shadows. If you later want to see a "normal" image you will have those details lost.

More than ever this incident demonstrates that the old media is on its last legs and cannot survive. Woodward has clearly been lazy in the preparation of this piece. It seems apparent, particularly from the interview, that he did not do a stitch of original work in the writing of this piece; in his retirement he appears to have relied on his recollections and old notes to cobble something together. His appeals to “old Mormonism” seem a tacit admission to that very fact. Before new media, he could have gotten away with this, but no more.
In isolation, this piece would not seem so bad, but in the Internet age, no piece in a major newpaper exists in isolation. One of the more truly amazing things about this is that the newspaper that considers itself “American’s paper of record” is so far behind the curve here. Woodward’s piece is remarkably similar to the dozens of others we have seen and linked to on this blog over the last year. When everybody read just their local paper such pieces were not part of the news, but instead they were THE news, but now they simply have the appearance of piling on. The Old Grey Lady is reduced to attempting to have the final say instead of THE say.
In other words, the new media has exposed this latent bigotry in a new and vital way. What used to be “conventional wisdom” has in this case been exposed as collective ignorance, ala “refuse to acquaint oneself with the easily available facts” and bias. The key question is bias against what? Given Woodward’s history of Mormon bashing, it is hard to know for him specifically, but across the MSM it should be obvious. The bias is against conservatism far more than Mormonism, but they appear not afraid to use Romney’s faith as a tool in that effort.
The other thing that is apparent, particularly in the interview and Woodward’s appeal to “perception,” is that they want to make a case not only that Mormons are wierd, but that Evangelicals are bigots. They think they have a “twofer” on their hands. And here the new media really shines. They no longer can function as gatekeepers, and we can get the word out that their stereotypes of Mormons and Evangelicals is just wrong. The Old Grey Lady cannot even manage the final say. (emphasis added.)
The repetitious nature of the attacks on Romney’s LDS faith is having the very real effect of draining the issue of any real political force. “Yeah, yeah, yeah, we’ve heard it all before” is a common refrain among Mormons when the latest anti-Mormon article appears, and now non-Mormon conservatives are getting to the same place…and noticing that the attempted big slams are coming from the left. How interesting. |

Zollinger Ellison syndrome, treated with lansoprazole, during pregnancy.
Zollinger Ellison syndrome (ZES), an ulcerative disease of the upper gastrointestinal tract that involves the production of high levels of gastrin and gastric acid, is a rare, symptomatic, endocrine neoplastic disease. We report a rare case of gastrinoma that was first diagnosed during pregnancy in which the primary tumor was located in the liver. The ZES was well controlled with Zoton (Lansoprazole) following surgery. The patient had an uneventful pregnancy and delivery without significant complications. The present case suggests that treatment with Zoton for ZES during pregnancy is safe and effective. |
With the rapid development of processor techniques, an existing memory system is insufficient to match a processor system that has undergone rapid development, which causes an increasingly severe development bottleneck for memory techniques. The development bottleneck for memory techniques is mainly reflected in two aspects that include a low effective utilization rate of a memory bandwidth and high power consumption of a memory system.
In a related art, to lower power consumption of a memory system, an organization manner of a memory chip is changed to improve a processing manner of a memory access request. One memory access request is processed by one subarray in one memory chip, instead of being evenly distributed to all memory chips or all subarrays of one memory chip, so that when a memory access request is processed, only a memory chip relevant to the memory access request is activated while other subarrays that are not activated are in a low power consumption mode.
In the forgoing implementation process for processing the memory access, a longer time is needed to transmit data when one memory access request is processed by one subarray in one memory chip and a memory controller can send a next memory access request to the memory chip only after receiving response information returned from the memory chip. This results in a relatively long time delay in processing a memory access request. |
Q:
FSCHateoasBundle configuration in yaml
I'm trying to use FSCHateoasBundle to add links to my API output.
The documentation mentions the possibility to configure relations using annotations or yaml but I cannot figure out where to place the yaml configuration and how it should be structured. Annotations as documented work fine. Has anyone an example?
What I try to do is to add a "relations" section in the configuration-files that are used by JMSSerializer. Do I have to use separate config-files for FSCHateoasBundle?
A:
The FSCHateoasBundle yaml configuration has to be done in another file than the JMSSerializerBundle.
To add metadata to your Acme\FooBundle\Entity\User with the JMSSerializerBundle, you'd create a file in src/Acme/FooBundle/Resources/config/serializer/Entity.User.yml.
With the FSCHateoasBundle, the file would be src/Acme/FooBundle/Resources/config/hateoas/Entity.User.yml.
I'll add a note in the readme ;-)

Pulmonary hypertension in interstitial lung disease.
Exercise impairment and pulmonary hypertension are common features of interstitial lung disease. Antifibrotic therapies for interstitial lung disease remain unproved; therefore, some interest has been focused on treating the pulmonary vascular impairment these diseases. Patients with pulmonary hypertension secondary to idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis may have normal resting pulmonary artery pressure, but it often rises with exercise. Exercise impairment in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis has a strong correlation with the degree of pulmonary artery pressure elevation, and hypoxemia, a hallmark of pulmonary hypertension, strongly correlates with survival. Small case series have shown that some patients improve on receiving therapy for pulmonary hypertension secondary to interstitial lung disease. These findings suggest that larger treatment trials for medications targeting pulmonary hypertension in interstitial lung disease are warranted. |

Two Minute Review: The Night We Said Yes by Lauren Gibaldi
A fun, romantic read, perfect for fans of Sarah Dessen and Susane Colasanti!
Before
Matt, Ella had a plan. Get over a no-good ex-boyfriend. Graduate from
high school without any more distractions. Move away from Orlando,
Florida, where she’s lived her entire life.
But Matt—the cute, shy, bespectacled bass player who just moved to town—was never part of that plan.
And
neither was attending a party that was crashed by the cops just minutes
after they arrived. Or spending an entire night saying “yes” to every
crazy, fun thing they could think of.
Then Matt abruptly left
town, and he broke not only Ella’s heart but those of their best
friends, too. So when he shows up a year later with a plan of his own—to
relive the night that brought them together—Ella isn’t sure whether
Matt’s worth a second chance. Or if re-creating the past can help them
create a different future.
In alternating then and now chapters,
debut author Lauren Gibaldi crafts a charming, romantic story of first
loves, lifelong friendships, uncovered secrets, and, ultimately, finding
out how to be brave.
It's fitting that my friends' ratings for The Night We Said Yes are all over the place because so are my personal feelings for it and the characters within. It also worked in TNESY's favor that this is a pretty short novel that reads quickly because my attention was waning the longer it lasted. It's a fun read, but it's a superficial kind of enjoyment. There's no lasting impression or emotions once the book is over.Things I Liked About The Night We Said Yes:
The premiseThe narrative structureFeatured a strong, realistic female friendshipThings That Didn't Work For Me In The Night We Said Yes:
JakeMatt and Ella's relationship being dissected
Unfortunately, while there is a compelling secondary plot concerned with the two main girls' evolving relationship, the book is more focused on the principal romance between Matt and Ella than any other aspect. And while it was okay, I was mostly blase about it from the introduction to the finale. It all feels familiar, despite the narrative frame and the "night(s) of saying yes" that the narrative revolves around. I just never really invested in the characters and that's kinda the point of a contemporary?
I liked this more than I was detached, but the characterization is not the most polished. The bones of the story and the cast are good, but this debut lacked an emotional core. |
A conventional seating arrangement normally comprises a frame having at least one seat cushion and a back cushion secured thereon by screws or bolts. Assembly of such a seating arrangement and disassembly thereof for repair or replacement purposes has proven unduly time-consuming and costly. In addition, such a conventional seating arrangement does not lend itself to various combinations wherein seat and back cushions may be orientated to assume various configurations. |
Infection control must improve
The risk of contracting infections at MountainView Hospital has been so great that it is in jeopardy of being dropped as a Medicare and Medicaid participant, according to a recent report by state health inspectors.
Inspectors reported multiple infection control violations at MountainView, including blood on the floor of a lab, a physician assistant contaminating equipment with bloody gloves and no system in place to track whether patients had picked up an infection after undergoing an outpatient endoscopy or cardiac catheterization procedure.
Other violations include:
Leaking bags of intravenous fluids and a failure to dispose of old intravenous fluid bags.
A phlebotomist drew blood from a patient and kept on her gloves while typing on a keyboard, effectively contaminating it. The woman then removed her gloves and sanitized her hands, but then typed on the same keyboard, contaminating her hands. She then put on a new pair of gloves and proceeded to draw blood from the next patient.

Sad news for global freeloaders travellers looking to keep up with Gmail and Twitter on their Amazon e-reader. The online book seller has started closing in on excessive free web browsing, policing a 50MB data limit on its keyboard Kindle iterations. According to users on MobileRead, you'll still be able to browse Amazon's Kindle store and Wikipedia, but anything beyond that gets locked down. After some further investigation, it looks like Amazon added a provision outlining the data limits on its site, dated around July 1st. It stipulating that users "may be limited to 50MB of browsing over 3G per month." The data cap only applies to older Kindle versions, including the Kindle Keyboard and Kindle DX. If you've got Amazon's latest e-reader hardware, then you're not missing anything -- the free web browsing option was sidestepped on the likes of the Kindle Touch. |
Utilization of medically-trained birth attendants in rural Bangladesh.
Using case-control methodology, this study compared the characteristics of women who requested medically-trained birth attendants at home with those who did not, in order to identify constraints to service delivery and suggest program changes to increase service utilization in a rural area of Bangladesh. By several different measures, prior contact with medical professionals were much more common among cases than controls, with the greatest differences observed in the frequency of antenatal visits. At least one antenatal visit was the strongest predictor that a woman would call a medically-trained birth attendant, though primiparity, proximity to the provider, previous contact with the clinic, and education (both of the mother and her spouse) were also predictive. Recommendations include increasing contact through antenatal visits, and extending midwife coverage through training and supervision of traditional birth attendants. This study demonstrates the usefulness of case-control methodology in evaluating health care utilization. |

I would definitely take a one-way trip to
Mars.
I do not wish I was the prototype to be shipped
off in space.
It would be pretty sick.
Yeah, I'd do it.
Probably not.
It'd be easier to go if there already was
a society there.
Invaders from Mars.
Weird, fantastic beings of super intelligence.
I think the prospect of getting somewhere
and having no way off is a little too much
for me.
I wouldn't be surprised if tomorrow people
could actually go to Mars already.
Considering that a common person could go
I think it makes it a lot cooler than just
a scientist.
There's an established reason of legacy and
then there's the reason for just science.
Making history, of course, is why most people
do anything.
I think it would be like a nice spring break
vacation.
If I could go to Mars, I would bring a book
and my iPod.
I'd bring my dog.
I would say my phone.
Definitely make sure that there's WiFi.
Music.
Music and books.
Because if I was going to bring life to Mars,
I'd definitely want art to exist.
There are a few people I'd rather send to
Mars than go myself.
A world no man has ever seen
and now one man must explore it alone.
I'd send my sister's cat.
The cast from the Jersey Shore.
One of my professors right now.
Ruthless dictators or tyrants or people without
a soul.
It would be my ex-boyfriend.
That's not exactly punishment if you're gonna
go to Mars.
With as much as we're messing up this planet,
I think that we're going to have to figure
it out.
It'll be exciting if they could do it.
I think that some people are starting to get
tired of kind of life on Earth,
as far as social norms and everything,
so to totally break that up in the middle
of your life
and do something just completely wild
and different is definitely appealing.

Carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii: in pursuit of an effective treatment.
Carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii (CRAB) has gained global notoriety as a critically important nosocomial pathogen. It mostly affects debilitated patients, causing pneumonia and bloodstream infections with high mortality rates. Difficulties in treating CRAB infections stem from a formidable resistance profile that leaves available only a few antibiotics of uncertain efficacy such as colistin and tigecycline. Despite the relentless attempts to improve therapeutic approaches (as depicted in colistin-oriented randomized clinical trials and the numerous observational studies), progress is still limited. We aim (a) to assist physicians to adapt therapeutic approaches in CRAB infections by considering all potentially available antimicrobials, and (b) to present directions for future investigations that emerge through treatment efforts in endemic settings. Articles and reviews from PubMed and Scopus databases; studies from ClinicalTrials.gov; presentations from ECCMID congresses and IDWeek meetings. The review provides a succinct overview of the important pharmacokinetic/pharmocodynamic parameters of relevant antimicrobial agents, a critical appraisal of randomized control trials and observational studies, suggestions for increasing the strength of observational studies and directions facilitating the choice of therapeutic regimens by severity of infection and status of the host. The lack of an optimal therapeutic regimen for CRAB thus far, as shown in this review, suggests the need to thoroughly investigate alternative approaches through carefully designed trials that should include all relevant drugs. Some of these alternative directions are indicated in the present review. |
"I do think a lot of the regional ones will (close), just as they did in the last savings and loan crisis in the 1990s," Ross said. (Watch the full CNBC.com exclusive interview with Wilbur Ross on the left)
Ross says he will be looking to pick up smaller distressed institutions. "There will be opportunities, but we will need federal assistance in them, because what we're mainly looking for is stable sources of deposits, not so much the loan portfolio."
Ross feels that there will be too many people willing to provide capital to the large financials, which makes them less of a bargain than smaller banks.
When asked about his views on Bank of America's purchase of Merrill Lynch, Ross said that he didn't think that Merrill was in that dire a position. |

The power of the sun can save lives. Having power to even one home in a rural community can provide a place that gives new mothers assurance of a safe delivery. Being able to power mobile devices also allows communication to larger cities where professional medical consults may be of value. By powering mobile devices and computers with solar, people are also able to access the internet to use for research when diagnosing conditions. Every rural community should have a solar powered school and medical facility. These are foundational needs for humans. |
Interspecific size regularities in tropical felid assemblages.
I extend an earlier analysis of size relationships in Neotropical cats to felid assemblages in tropical Africa and Asia. Jaw length is the size measure, which apparently correlates well with modal prey size. Each assemblage contains two species ("convergents") that are indistinguishable in jaw length. When, the convergent species are treated as separate entities, there is little evidence of even ratios, but there is a tendency for ratios to be larger on average than expected by random assembly, especially among the larger species. This tendency may reflect greater prey size variance for the large species or fewer alternatives to prey size as a basis for niche segregation among large species. Extreme evenness in size ratios observed among the larger Neotropical cats is not repeated in the other assemblages. Because demonstration of strong size ratio evenness depends on merging the convergents, the significance of such regularity must await greater knowledge of the habits of the convergent species. Differences between the convergent species in habitat use or predatory behavior are suggested by the fact that in each convergent pair, one species has dappled (striped or spotted) coat coloration and the other a plain coat. |
Sunday on NBC’s meet the Press,” in commenting on the gun control push in the wake of the Orlando, FL mass shooting terror attack last weekend, Attorney General Loretta Lynch argued to have the “tools” to stop those from obtaining guns “who should not have them.”
Lynch said, “We’re extremely grateful that in crafting this legislation, Congress took into account those concerns that the director expressed more than a year ago. Obviously we want to be able to have the tools we need to stop individuals from obtaining guns who should not have them. But we also need to have a process, consistent with the law, to protect ongoing investigations and protect sensitive matters. And this amendment does give the department of justice both of those tools.”

It’s not just the table fare that’s important. The oyster filters water as it lives its submarine life, and efforts to build oyster population in different watersheds are more about water quality than half-shell delights. Watermen, who have long been opposed to limiting harvests, are rightly concerned that any future management strategy may negatively affect the viability of their way of life. |

New autosomal dominant form of spondyloepiphyseal dysplasia presenting with atlanto-axial instability.
We present a family with a radiologically distinct new form of autosomal dominant spondyloepiphyseal dysplasia, presenting with cervical instability and attendant neurological compromise and emphasise the radiological characteristics which delineate this condition. Cervical vertebral abnormalities, including malformation of the odontoid process, have been observed in some forms of spondyloepiphyseal dysplasia, but rarely lead to neurological sequelae, in contrast to the pedigree we describe. |
Q:
Is it possible to write a Java Collector that does early exit when it has a result?
Is it possible to implement a Collector that stops processing of the stream as soon as an answer is available?
For example, if the Collector is computing an average, and one of the values is NaN, I know the answer is going to be NaN without seeing any more values, so further computation is pointless.
A:
Thanks for the responses. The comments pointed the way to a solution, which I will describe here. It's very much inspired by StreamEx, but adapted to my particular situation.
Firstly, I define an implementation of Stream called XdmStream which in general delegates all methods to an underlying Stream which it wraps.
This immediately gives me the opportunity to define new methods, so for example my users can do stream.last() instead of stream.reduce((first,second)->second), which is a useful convenience.
As an example of a short-circuiting method I have implemented XdmStream.untilFirst(Predicate) as follows (base is the wrapped Stream). The idea of this method is to return a stream that delivers the same results as the original stream, except that when a predicate is satisfied, no more results are delivered.
public XdmStream<T> untilFirst(Predicate<? super XdmItem> predicate) {
Stream<T> stoppable = base.peek(item -> {
if (predicate.test(item)) {
base.close();
}
});
return new XdmStream<T>(stoppable);
}
When I first create the base Stream I call its onClose() method so that a call on close() triggers the supplier of data to stop supplying data.
The close() mechanism doesn't seem particularly well documented (it relies on the concept of a "stream pipeline" and it's not entirely clear when a new stream returned by some method is part of the same pipeline as the original stream) - but it's working for me. I guess I should probably ensure that this is only an optimization, so that the results will still be correct even if the flow of data isn't immediately turned off (e.g. if there is any buffering in the stream).

The male biological clock.
Do men have biological clocks that affect their hormone levels, fertility, and the genetic quality of their sperm? Women can no longer be viewed as solely responsible for age-related fertility and genetic problems. The effects of andropause and advanced paternal age on fertility and offspring are still under investigation. Further research is needed to fully characterize the associated risks and to treat the underlying abnormalities. A better understanding of the cellular and biochemical mechanisms of "gonadal" aging is important in order to determine safe, effective ways to delay this process and "rewind" the male biological clock. The benefits may include decreasing the potential for adverse genetic consequences in offspring, improvement in the sexual and reproductive health of aging males, and increase a woman's chance of having healthy children by correcting defects in the male reproductive system. |
Q:
Can someone explain this es6 syntax to me?
Can someone explain the following statement?
return state.map(todo =>
(todo.id === action.id)
? {...todo, completed: !todo.completed}
: todo
)
More specifically this line
{...todo, completed: !todo.completed}
Why is there two arguments in the true portion of the ternary operation?
What is ?
...
A:
The ...todo, is the spread syntax, meaning the completed: !todo.completed property will be added to the existing todo object along with the previous properties. Using it you don't have to manually copy over the existing properties.
Treat it as expanding the 'todo' object.
Also (todo.id === action.id) is checking whether the idis same in both objects and then adding the completed: !todo.completed property else keeping the old object as it is.

The former Hoops boss claims owner Tony Fernandes was influenced by "certain people" although he had warm words for his successor Mark Hughes, who he feels is a "good manager"
Former QPR manager Neil Warnock has hit out at his former employers and suggests they were influenced by external pressure when they made the decision to sack him.
Before being relieved of his duties a fortnight ago, Warnock had managed at Loftus Road for two years, although he believes he was "slowly poisoned" by opinion from outside and within the club.
The former Hoops boss thinks the club's executives were too easily swayed by negative opinion during the final days of his tenure and told the BBC: "Even the owner Tony [Fernandes]... I know the influence he'll have had from certain people over the past few weeks.
"It would have been difficult to resist because people get on the phone and tweet and it's almost like slowly poisoning somebody from outside the club and no doubt from within the club as well.
"It's a dangerous precedent. If you let players talk to the chairman but, you know, you can't stop tweeting."
Warnock said his successor, Mark Hughes, is a "good manager", also stating that he wish he had his agent. |
"We've been playing the game at the studio recently, it's showing us that we're taking the game in the right direction," Aaryn Flynn, General Manager of BioWare explains. "But we also know we need the right amount of time to make sure we deliver everything the game can be and should be -- that's our commitment from all of us to you." He also reiterates that the game will be running on EA's Frostbite engine, delivering "visuals, story, and gameplay that have never been done in franchise history."
There is one silver lining: the studio has confirmed that an "update" for Mass Effect: Andromeda will be shown at EA's E3 press conference on June 12th. Fingers crossed that includes some gameplay footage. |
Q:
ruby - how can i still do something when there's error (example: NameError)
i manage to do "something"(like deleting files,etc) when exit or exit! is called from Object.
by changing the method exit and exit! inside Object class. (at_exit is too unreliable)
but then the "something" never execute if there's error such as NameError, etc.
is there way so i can make "something" that still execute if there's error.
(any error possible if necessary).
something like at_exit but works with all errors
thanks in advance for assistance. and forgive me if there's already question ask for this.
i do search a lot before asking here. and found nothing.
edit: i don't know where the original author of the code place the method. since the original author load it from dll files in the exe program the author used for launcher. (i can only edit After the original code take place...). so i think i need another approach for this... but i manage to make a workaround for my problem... by putting begin rescue in other places that send data to the original object. i filter the data send and throw my own error before it reach the main program... so i guess this works too.
A:
Borrowing from an answer on a different thread, and definitely along the lines of what Marek commented, this is how you should handle errors in Ruby:
begin
# something which might raise an exception
rescue SomeExceptionClass => some_variable
# code that deals with some exception
rescue SomeOtherException => some_other_variable
# code that deals with some other exception
else
# code that runs only if *no* exception was raised
ensure
# ensure that this code always runs, no matter what
end

Rutledge family farms is a little different. We do things not because we have to, but because we love doing it. It seems simple and a little silly, but it makes all the difference in the world. If it is raising puppies, or harvesting honey that love is infused in everything we do.
Let’s start with a little story. I have raised Dalmatians since I was in college. I can’t tell you exactly why I have always wanted Dalmatians, but I have. My first Dalmatian was Isabelle, but most knew her as Isa (eye-sa). She lived with me in Athens while I attended Ohio University, and joined me as I grew and traveled. She lived with me for nearly fifteen years, and in many ways, still does.
Years later, my two sons and I sat outside waiting in line to speak with Santa. I honestly don’t know what my youngest son Alex, then six, was going to ask for, but I do know that we discussed it, and it seemed perfectly reasonable. It might have been a telescope. Whatever it was, I was excited and approving. When he finally got up to see santa, I could see that they were having a pretty serious conversation. At one point Santa shot me a glance, something that communicated the idea of “are you sure you are ok with this?”. I, of course, nodded my approval. When Alex bounced back to my side he was over the moon excited and quickly announced that we were getting a Dalmatian puppy.
And, so, through the amazing effort of a few people to whom I will be forever grateful, we did.
It is here when I want to take a momentary aside, I genuinely think Alex did want a puppy, but I also think that this is an example of him wanting very much to make me happy as well. He knew that I missed my Isa, and wanted to help me fill the whole that her departure left. This is just one of the many examples of the kind of love that we have in our family. My beautiful little child was willing to give up his only Christmas gift to help make his father happy. How awesome is that?
There are a lot of people who don’t neccesarily think that a puppy is a good Christmas gift, and I certainly understand the concerns, but Hera was awesome. The boys both learned a lot taking care of her, and she went with us whenever possible. She rode with us to school in the morning, went to work with me, and picked up the boys in the afternoon. She worked with my patients, she went camping, she went on trips. She was a true member of our family.
With another Christmas approaching it became apparent that a dalmatian puppy is a hard thing to top. So, what is better than one Dalmatian? while two of course! The boys conspired. This time they would get a boy, that way we could have puppies. This was the start of many, long, on going conversations, but, suffice to say, the next year Zues joined our family.
Zues also joined us in all our family vactions, camping trips, work and bed. Bedtime is very interesting. Vaction time is interesting. Camping is interesting. Hotels are interesting.
It’s the same old story, you have a boy, you have a girl, and now you have puppies. It’s an old story and we are very happy to play our role in it.
Years later, we have our second litter, and lots of happy memories. Thank you for everyone who has helped us in our journey.

Your Deaf Kids and the Hearing World
The other day I was asked by a father who cares very much about his daughter how he could help her deal with the struggles of communicating with hearing people during everyday activities. As he put it, he is concerned about her “transition into adulthood” without his being there to help.
As a father of three children, although all are hearing, I truly understand where this concern comes from. It is a valid worry for any parent. The fact that he cares enough to even think about this is a testament to his devotion toward his child, and I appreciate that. I’m sure you do, too.
Don’t rely on a technological device that can and will break to be the only bridge to communication.
I consider myself fortunate to be able to interact with hearing people in all walks of life, including those that do not sign, which is honestly most of them. The community assumes that I can hear, that I must be hard of hearing, but the truth is that I’m as deaf as anyone I know.
NVRC eNews provides news and
community announcements on variety of topics related to deaf and hard of hearing people and their families, friends, co-workers, employers, business and government agencies that serve deaf and hard of hearing people.

Amid festivities of International Women’s Day, and LGBT History Month that preceded it, Britain has been bathed in self-reflection and self-congratulation on how far we’ve come on equal rights.
With all the usual qualifications, all that have been thinking deeply about these issues do seem to agree women and gay people are closer to equality than ever – yet may have hit glass ceilings and buffers in the road.
Consider, however, the plight of transgender people – whose lot appears to be moving towards improvement at a tortoise pace, rather than a hare’s. And they’re not getting much of a look-in when it comes to outrage about the pace of change.
A prime example of the lag came in the form of BBC’s Pointless programme, which featured Stephanie alongside her elderly friend Pearl.
And if you ever wanted to see the extent of the casual transphobia on display, Twitter’s not a bad window into that murky world.
“Woah! ‘stephanie’ on #pointless is taking womens day a bit far”
“Just heard him speak definatly [sic] a man”
“Anyone watching #pointless… ‘Stephanie’ is a bloke, right?”
“Strange how Stephanie knew the footie answer #pointless”
“That ‘woman’ Stephanie on Pointless is definitely a man dunno who he/shes’s tryna kid”
And a litany of far meaner jokes and comments about whether she should’ve really been called Steven.
All of this prompted the co-host of the show, Richard Osman, to rather admirably point out anyone making unpleasant comments could “stop watching the show altogether” and urged a vocal minority to “grow up and let people live life”.
The main source of annoyance appeared to be that Stephanie had dared to appear on the show at all.
If someone looks and sounds different, do they deserve a place on a TV quiz show? A vocal minority seems to suggest so.
It should also be pointed out that at no point did the BBC or Stephanie mention anything about her gender – so we can assume the horrible comments were based entirely on her looks.
It remains the case that if a transgender person even appears on television, or indeed in public, it represents a “brave” thing to do. The law says we are equal, but the people say we are not.
The struggle for equality of women and gay people has made vast strides due to strong and organised campaigns to achieve it, though this week’s campaign shows that many are still judged on the basis of both those facts.
The trans campaign, so often tagged on as it is to the end of LGBT, has to wade far further through treacle to achieve the same progress.
In the case of Stephanie, the BBC rightly made no reference to her gender at all, but as with so much discrimination, it’s the seedy, silent underbelly that threatens to stop us reaching a holy grail where someone’s differences don’t invite abuse upon them – or indeed don’t invite any comment at all.
The consequences of that can be hideous.
And it’s something the press are equally culpable of.
A coroner concluding on the suicide of transgender primary school teacher Lucy Meadows – who killed herself after tabloid stories about her return to school as a woman with a new name – said she had suffered a “character assassination” from elements of the press, which amounted to “ill-informed bigotry”, which he at least partly attributed for her death.
To a lesser extent, Piers Morgan’s careless use of words interviewing a transgender activist – even tweeting questions asking how you’d feel if you were dating a woman “formerly a man” – fuels the fire of those believing it’s a difference worth pointing out, isolating and putting up in lights for all to see.
If it’s possible to rank, transgender people suffer perhaps the greatest hurdles of all in the great fight for acceptance.
While the fights for rights of gay people and women are being fought in the newspaper columns, on our television screens and in the Houses of Parliament, with the baton taken up by politicians and celebrities alike, the demonising of transgender people continues in private among sniggering smartphone users and ignorant fools. Unchallenged, and largely unfashionable.
To emphasise, Stephanie didn’t ever say she was trans.
She also didn’t win Pointless. In fact, her run with Pearl was pretty success-free.
But she did win a fair few fans along the way – judging by the swell of goodwill responding to Osman’s slapdown – and that’s a decent enough win for International Women’s Day. |

Ethics and palliative care consultation in the intensive care unit.
It is clear that ethics and palliative care consultation have, in our view, much to offer intensivists as they attempt to work through the very complex and often tragic cases they face in their daily practice.Potential strengths include clarification of tangled normative issues, facilitation of shared decision making, conflict resolution,and expertise in the provision of comfort care. Despite this, it is an unfortunate fact that many intensivists remain reluctant to use ethics and palliative care services. There are, of course, many possible reasons for this, including the absence of quality services in certain institutions, issues, or power and control, and role misperceptions. It is our hope that we have helped to clarify appropriate roles for ethics and palliative care in the intensive care unit. We urge the continued development of quality ethics and palliative care services, and the use of those services by intensivists. |
Q:
How to use the same component for nested routes routes in vue-router
I have a view that have a list of items with a route:
{
path: "/items",
name: "items",
component: () => import("./myViews/itemsView.vue")
},
if I click one of them I go to route:
{
path: "/items/:id",
name: "singleItem",
***component: () => import("./myViews/singleItemView.vue")***
},
inside that view I have another list of other items and I need the route to look like this:
{
path: "/items/:id/:subId",
name: "singleSubItem",
***component: () => import("./myViews/singleItemView.vue")***
},
and I need to use the same component singleItemView for both routes.
when I am at "/items/:id "I am listening from a value emitted from a child component and then pushing the route like this:
<myComponent @completed="$router.push({name: 'singleSubItme', params: {id: 'id', subId:'subId'})"></myComponent>
The url does change but it keeps the same component with the same state and I want it to reload.
A:
One possible solution is add :key to your router-view to force it re-render
<router-view :key="$route.fullPath"></router-view>
You can also watch $route inside singleItemView.vue to have custom action (for example, call API)
watch: {
'$route'(to, from) {
const {id, subId} = to.params
if (subId) {
// do something
} else {
// do something else
}
}
},

Dolphin sonar--modelling a new receiver concept.
Observations suggest that dolphin sonars function well in the very shallow, reverberant, near-shore region of the ocean, and significantly out-perform man-made systems under such conditions. The echolocation characteristics of many small cetaceans have been measured directly and the high performance of biosonar systems is not in question, but explanations for their resolution, target detection, localization and tracking abilities are inadequate and deserve further investigation. The dolphin's lower jaw has been identified as part of an echo-receptor, and several hypotheses have been proposed to explain this. In one of these, the regularity of dolphin teeth was considered as a sonar array. This paper explores the physics of such systems with models based on established radar and sonar principles, and using data from various dolphin species. The insights gained from this modelling then lead to speculative proposals for new sonar receiver concepts that may have advantages over more conventional designs in shallow water operation. |

Tumor necrosis factor alpha inhibits transcriptional activity of the porcine P-45011A insulin-like growth factor response element.
We investigated the effects of tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNFalpha) on the transcriptional activity of the porcine P-45011A (P450scc) insulin-like growth factor response element (IGFRE). TNFalpha inhibited insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I)-stimulated P450scc mRNA concentrations in cultures of porcine granulosa cells. Transient transfection experiments in granulosa cells with deletion P450scc/luciferase constructs showed that TNFalpha inhibited the transcriptional activity of the IGFRE. IGF-I binding and IGF-I receptor mRNA concentrations in porcine granulosa cells were not inhibited by TNFalpha. Electrophoretic mobility shift assay with nuclear extract protein from porcine granulosa cells treated with IGF-I and TNFalpha showed that Sp1 and a second transcription factor, P2, bound to the IGFRE. While IGF-I treatment increased the binding activity of both factors, TNFalpha specifically inhibited the IGF-I-stimulated binding activity of P2. Transient transfection studies done in mouse fibroblasts overexpressing the IGF-I receptor (NWTb3) with the porcine IGFRE (three repeats) in an SV40/luciferase construct also showed TNFalpha inhibited IGF-I-stimulated reporter gene expression. We conclude that TNFalpha inhibits the transcriptional activity of the porcine P450scc IGFRE by preventing IGF-I-stimulated binding of P2. |
It’s wild how we outgrow what we once thought we couldn’t live without, and then we fall in love with what we didn’t even know we wanted. Life keeps leading us down paths we would never travel if it were up to us.
Don’t be afraid.
Have faith.
Trust the journey.
Don’t let your expectations of how life “should be” blind you to the beauty of the life you’re living.
And of course, if you’re struggling with trusting the journey and taming your expectations right now, know that you are not alone. Many of us are here with you, working hard to let go, find more presence and acceptance, and get our thinking back on track. Let me share a quick metaphor with you that I often share with our course students and live event attendees…
Imagine you had a ripe, juicy tangerine sitting on the table in front of you. You pick it up eagerly, take a bite and begin to taste it.
You already know how a ripe, juicy tangerine should taste, and so when this one is a bit tarter than expected, you make a face, feel a sense of disappointment and swallow it, feeling cheated out of the experience you expected.
Or perhaps the tangerine tastes completely normal—nothing special at all. So, you swallow it without even pausing to appreciate its flavor, as you move on to the next unworthy bite, and the next.
In the first scenario, the tangerine let you down because it didn’t meet your expectations. In the second, it was too plain because it met your expectations to a T.
Do you see the irony here?
It’s either not good, or not good enough.
This is how many of us live our lives… unhappily.
It’s why so many of us feel let down, disappointed, and unexcited about almost everything.
Because nothing really meets our expectations.
Now, imagine you try this instead: remove your expectations of how the tangerine “should” taste. You don’t know, and you don’t expect to know, because you haven’t even tried it yet. Instead, you’re genuinely curious, impartial and open to a variety of possible flavors.
You taste it, and you truly pay attention. You notice the juiciness, the texture of the pulp, the simultaneously tangy, tart and sweet flavors swirling around on your tongue, and all the other complex sensations that arise in your awareness as you chew. You didn’t know how this tangerine would taste, but now you realize it’s different than the rest, and it’s remarkable in its own way. It’s a totally new experience—a worthwhile experience—because you’ve never tasted THIS tangerine before.
Mindfulness experts often refer to this as “beginner’s mind,” but really, it’s just the result of a mindset free of needless, stifling expectations.
The tangerine, of course, can be substituted for almost anything in your life: any event, any situation, any relationship, any person, any thought at all that enters your mind. If you approach any of these with expectations of “how it should be” or “how it has to be” in order to be good enough for you, they will almost always disappoint you in some way… or be too plain and unexciting to even remember. And you’ll just move on to the next disappointment or unworthy life experience, and the next, and the next, and so on and so forth…
Until you’ve lived the vast majority of your life stuck in an endless cycle of experiences you barely like or barely even notice.
A Mentally Stronger Way to Think & Live
When you add up over a decade worth of one-on-one coaching sessions with students, open conversations with our readers, and the annual live events we host, Marc and I have lots of experience when it comes to assisting people through the pain points that have been holding them back. And one of the most prevalent pain points we’ve seen unfold over the years is what I just described above—expectations gone wrong. In fact, most of what we describe as our “biggest problems” are the direct consequence of how we react to life on an average day.
Yes, sometimes there are major tragedies to cope with, but most of the time the only real tragedy is our weak thinking and resulting behavior in the present moment.
Exercising your mental strength—your inner resilience—is key! And you don’t have to be born mentally strong either. You can develop this vital character trait with daily practice.
Is it easy? Not exactly.
Is it worth it? Absolutely!
And it all starts with facing the present moment fully, with genuine presence and acceptance.
Even when times are relatively good, one of the hardest challenges we face in life is to simply live in our own skin—to just be right here, right now, regardless of where we are. Too often we aimlessly distract ourselves with anything and everything: food, booze, shopping, television, gossip news, social networks, video games, smart phones, iPads, etc.—basically anything to keep us from being fully present.
We use compulsive work, compulsive exercise, compulsive love affairs, and the like, to escape from ourselves and the realities of living with full presence. In fact, many of us will go to great lengths to avoid the feeling of being alone with ourselves in an undistracted environment. So, we succumb to hanging out with just about anybody to avoid the feeling of solitude. For being alone means dealing with our true feelings: fears, anxieties, anticipation, uncertainty, frustrations, envy, disappointment, and so on and so forth. And when harder times hit, things spiral even further out of control.
On the flip side, mentally strong people gradually grow to understand that finding peace and happiness in life does not mean to be in a place where there is no noise, no challenges, and no hard work. It means to be in the midst of those things while remaining focused in your mind and calm in your heart. It’s about letting go of the pictures in your head about how things were “supposed to be,” and facing the present moment’s challenges with presence and poise.
So, begin today by just noticing with curiosity, and without judgment, all of the ways in which you avoid being in your own skin, with your own issues, right here, right now, in this present moment we call life. Then focus, carefully, on what you’re truly feeling. Don’t numb yourself with any more distractions, but instead bring how you feel further into your awareness.
Turn to it, and welcome it. Smile, and give what you feel your full, thoughtful attention.
Notice the feeling in your body. Where is the feeling situated, and what unique qualities does it have?
Notice the tension in your body, and also in your mind, that arises from this feeling.
Try relaxing the tense parts of your body. Then relax the tense parts of your mind. Do so by focusing on your breath: Close your eyes, breathe in and feel it, breathe out and feel it, again and again, until you feel more relaxed.
In this more relaxed state, find some quiet space within yourself. And in this space…
Allow yourself to rediscover the fundamental goodness within you, that’s present in every moment.
Allow yourself to rediscover the fundamental goodness of this very moment, that’s always available to you whenever you’re willing to focus on it.
Take time to just sit with the inner peace these simple rediscoveries bring.
This is the practice of letting go of stress, and simply accepting this moment as it is, and yourself as you are.
You can do this anytime, wherever you are. You can practice focusing on the goodness in others as well. Seeing the goodness in your challenges and relationships and work, even when things don’t go exactly as planned.
You can build a healthy daily ritual of stopping unnecessary stress in your life, and rediscovering the peace and joy and love that are always just a few thoughts away.
(Note: Marc and I build healthy, life-changing daily rituals like this with our students in the “Goals and Growth” module of the Getting Back to Happy Course and in our NYT bestselling book.)
Now, it’s your turn…
Don’t wish away any more time waiting for better times ahead. Just appreciate where you are. You’ve come a long way, and you’re still learning and growing. Be thankful for the lessons. Take them and make the best of things right now.
And if you’re up to it, we’d love know:
Despite your challenges, what’s something good you could appreciate right now, if you really wanted to?

Q:
Is it possible to make a Remote Desktop connection private from people physically watching the screen?
When I use VNC or RDP to remotely control my office computer, as far as I'm aware, someone standing in front of my computer could be seeing everything I'm doing. Furthermore, if I lose my connection then the computer will still be logged in (i.e. not locked) so someone in my office could do whatever they wanted with my login credentials.
Is there a way to remotely access ones machine that doesn't compromise privacy from someone who may be physically in front of the machine?
EDIT: I'm using tightVNC or realVNC to access Ubuntu Linux. Sometimes I work with Windows machines too so the RDP answer is also valid/interesting.
A:
If doing RDP, what you are doing on the PC will not be visible to local users. Instead they will see a box which is saying something like "UserA is currently logged in remotely." They will be able to try to log into that PC normally but will require admin rights to do so as it will terminate your session.
I'm not sure about VNC.

[Carrier-mediated Transport of Cationic Drugs across the Blood-Tissue Barrier].
Studies of neurological dysfunction have revealed the neuroprotective effect of several cationic drugs, suggesting their usefulness in the treatment of neurological diseases. In the brain and retina, blood-tissue barriers such as blood-brain barrier (BBB) and blood-retinal barrier (BRB) are formed to restrict nonspecific solute transport between the circulating blood and neural tissues. Therefore study of cationic drug transport at these barriers is essential to achieve systemic delivery of neuroprotective agents into the neural tissues. In the retina, severe diseases such as diabetic retinopathy and macular degeneration can cause neurological dysfunction that dramatically affects patients' QOL. The BRB is formed by retinal capillary endothelial cells (inner BRB) and retinal pigment epithelial cells (outer BRB). Blood-to-retina transport of cationic drugs was investigated at the inner BRB, which is known to nourish two thirds of the retina. Blood-to-retinal transport of verapamil suggested that the barrier function of the BRB differs from that of the BBB. Moreover, carrier-mediated transport of verapamil and pyrilamine revealed the involvement of novel organic cation transporters at the inner BRB. The identified transport systems for cationic drugs are sensitive to several cationic neuroprotective and anti-angiogenic agents such as clonidine and propranolol, and the involvement of novel transporters was also suggested in their blood-to-retina transport across the inner BRB. |

Reasons Why You Should Invest in Property
There are several reasons why you should talk with conveyancers in Cavernam about investing in property for financial success. The main benefit of investing in property is that you earn steady income over a period of time. This is especially true if you purchase an apartment building and rent it out to tenants. You also may qualify for tax credits if you purchase multiple properties to use as a senior care facility or as a building where mostly university students would stay.
You Create Jobs
Another reason to contact conveyancers in Cavernam about investing in properties is because you create jobs. This happens if you buy commercial properties and rent them out to people wishing to start businesses in their communities. By doing this you’re helping job growth throughout the country.
You’re Providing For Your Family
You’ll benefit from investing in property by providing for your family long after you pass away. If you purchase a duplex home your adult children can rent out the other side of the home when you pass away and they can receive income from the property you purchased when they were children.
You Can Retire Quicker
When you invest in property you can retire quicker because as you earn a steady income from tenants’ payments your savings increase over time and you don’t have to wait until you reach an elderly age to retire. Use the income from your properties to save up for your future and then you can leave financial stability to your children and grandchildren.
You’ll Have Financial Help From Government
You may like the above mentioned reasons for investing in property but you’re concerned that you will not have the funds needed to do so. If you meet with a solicitor and a few conveyancers in Cavernam, you’ll receive advice on how you can obtain the money you need to invest in several properties. Banks, non-profit organisations, the government and even your loved ones can help you financially.
Investing in property like a daunting venture and there is some truth to this statement. However, the benefits outweigh the risks and if you research the matter thoroughly you will succeed in this field. Never purchase more properties than you can afford and always stay up to date on the UK housing market. The UK housing market affects the way you invest in property and the return you’ll get on your investments. Talk with your solicitor regularly during the buying process and maintain a positive attitude.

New perspectives in gaze sensitivity research.
Attending to where others are looking is thought to be of great adaptive benefit for animals when avoiding predators and interacting with group members. Many animals have been reported to respond to the gaze of others, by co-orienting their gaze with group members (gaze following) and/or responding fearfully to the gaze of predators or competitors (i.e., gaze aversion). Much of the literature has focused on the cognitive underpinnings of gaze sensitivity, namely whether animals have an understanding of the attention and visual perspectives in others. Yet there remain several unanswered questions regarding how animals learn to follow or avoid gaze and how experience may influence their behavioral responses. Many studies on the ontogeny of gaze sensitivity have shed light on how and when gaze abilities emerge and change across development, indicating the necessity to explore gaze sensitivity when animals are exposed to additional information from their environment as adults. Gaze aversion may be dependent upon experience and proximity to different predator types, other cues of predation risk, and the salience of gaze cues. Gaze following in the context of information transfer within social groups may also be dependent upon experience with group-members; therefore we propose novel means to explore the degree to which animals respond to gaze in a flexible manner, namely by inhibiting or enhancing gaze following responses. We hope this review will stimulate gaze sensitivity research to expand beyond the narrow scope of investigating underlying cognitive mechanisms, and to explore how gaze cues may function to communicate information other than attention. |
IT Management
IT is an integral part of process handling and one of the factors that ensure the success of efficient business workflows. Every corporate strategy requires an IT strategy in order to meet the demands of the market and regulation in a successful, i.e. efficient and effective manner. It is necessary to plan, design, implement and steer IT and the data flow of many systems and applications. There is no one IT system capable of this. Optimised data flows must be made to measure and are not available out of the box.
Successful companies not only optimise process support, they optimise IT itself. Efficient IT requires efficient management. IT management means:
Targeted use of IT with a focus on key demand
Intelligent automation and optimisation of data flows
Competent IT management and IT controlling, central responsibility for IT efficiency
Clear assignment of IT tasks between specialist units, users, the IT area and service providers.

Q:
How can I override a function with various inherited arguments (Swift)
How to override a function with an inherited argument in Swift?
I have classes:
class ItemA {
var valueA: String?
func setValueA(_ value: String?) {
valueA = value
}
}
class ItemB: ItemA {
var valueB: String?
func setValueB(_ value: String?) {
valueB = value
}
}
// Analog of the abstract class
class ClassA {
func setValues(_ item: ItemA) {
item.setValueA("valueA")
getValues(item) // call getValues from ClassB
}
func getValues(_ item: ItemA) {
abort()
}
}
class ClassB: ClassA {
override func setValues(_ item: ItemB) { // item have type itemB, but extends ItemA
item.setValueB("valueB")
super.setValues(item)
}
override func getValues(_ item: ItemA) {
let item = item as! ItemB
let array = [item.valueA, item.valueB]
print(array)
}
}
My goal is to get the following results:
let itemB = ItemB()
ClassB().setValues(itemB)
// print ["valueA", "valueB"]
I can't override the function in the class because the types are different and there is no type inheritance in Swift. I get this error in setValues(_ item: ItemB) method from ClassB:
Method does not override any method from its superclass
In Java, this can be implemented using an abstract class and an extensible type:
abstract class ClassA {
<T extends ItemA> void setValues(T item) {
item.setValueA("valueA");
getValues(item);
}
abstract void getValues(MainItem item);
}
A:
Correct answer depends on generics:
class ItemA {
var valueA: String?
func setValueA(_ value: String?) {
valueA = value
}
}
class ItemB: ItemA {
var valueB: String?
func setValueB(_ value: String?) {
valueB = value
}
}
// Analog of the abstract class
class ClassA {
func setValues<T : ItemA>(_ item: T) {
item.setValueA("valueA")
getValues(item) // call getValues from ClassB
}
func getValues(_ item: ItemA) {
abort()
}
}
class ClassB: ClassA {
override func setValues<T : ItemB>(_ item: T) {
// item have type itemB, but extends ItemA
item.setValueB("valueB")
super.setValues(item)
}
override func getValues(_ item: ItemA) {
let item = item as! ItemB
let array = [item.valueA, item.valueB]
print(array)
}
}
Check it! If you want to print non-optional values, unwrap them.
let itemB = ItemB()
ClassB().setValues(itemB)
// print ["valueA", "valueB"]

Q:
How can I tell if a project is done with a PHP framework?
I am working on a project (already started), but I do not know if it is done with framework since there are files in many different folders, but I do not see any syntax referring to some framework that I know of.
I hope someone can help me...
A:
Well it would depend on the Folder Hierarchies and the code.
If the views folder has the term "blade" on it, it's definitely laravel.
If the the code of the library has the term "CI Controller" somewhere in the libraries its definitely CodeIgniter.
If the code has a lot of "wp-" string in its code, its definitely Wordpress.
TIP: Put the whole folder in Sublime, search the folder (right click the folder and choose "Find in folder...") and search for terms that are generally reserved words for mostly used frameworks.

Ab Initio modeling of the effect of oxidation coupled with HnO deprotonation on carboxylate ligands in Mn/Ca clusters.
Oxidation of some manganese complexes containing both carboxylate and water/hydroxo ligands does not result in changes to the carboxylate stretching frequencies. The water oxidizing complex of photosystem II is one motivating example. On the basis of electronic structure theory calculations, we here suggest that the deprotonation of water or hydroxo ligands minimizes changes in the vibrational frequencies of coligating carboxylates, rendering the carboxylate modes "invisible" in FTIR difference spectroscopy. This deprotonation of water/hydroxo ligands was also found to balance the redox potentials of the Mn(II)/Mn(III) and Mn(III)/Mn(IV) couples, allowing the possibility for successive manganese oxidations at a relatively constant redox potential. |
The Pirate Bay has responded to concerns about its use of U.S.-based CDN service CloudFlare. According to the people behind the site, this is only a temporary measure to reduce the load on its servers. In addition, TPB now asks users to report fake torrents, noting that the staff's moderating capabilities are disabled for security reasons.
On Saturday The Pirate Bay made its long-awaited comeback. While most users were happy to see the site back online, others were suspicious about the new setup.
One of the issues that was discussed the most is Pirate Bay’s use of CloudFlare’s CDN and its SSL service. Several people voiced concerns that this would make it easy for U.S. authorities to spy on Pirate Bay’s users.
Others even went as far as rumoring that the FBI had already infiltrated the site. While this is complete nonsense, general security concerns of using a U.S.-based service are legitimate.
Today, the Pirate Bay responded to the possible security issue, explaining that it’s only using Cloudflare temporarily in order to cope with the continued stream of millions of visitors.
“We have seen that there has been some question to why we are using Cloudflare. This is only initially to handle the massive load upon the servers. It will be removed shortly,” TPB says in a statement.
Another concern is the lack of moderation on the site. The Pirate Bay previously decided to take away the rights of admins and moderators which resulted in a staff revolt and a subsequent pollution problem.
Since the site’s return many fake torrents have been posted to the site and without moderators these were not removed. The Pirate Bay operators now explain that the decision to keep the staff out was taken as a security measure.
“Due to severe security issues regarding the old moderator team all moderation has temporarily been disabled,” TPB notes.
To deal with the spam and fake torrent problem they’ve now added a report link to every torrent details page.
“Before we sort everything out we have instead added a ‘Report link’ to all torrents which you can find in the details page. We believe that the TPB community can help moderate the site for the time being.”
Already, several flagged torrents have been removed from the site so the report button seems to work. Whether it will be as effective as a full team of moderators has yet to be seen.
The locked out staffers are not really convinced by the security explanation and doubt that this is the true reason.
“Are we all to believe that the situation is what it is for security reasons? In that case the admins would remove the bad apples, and this is not what is going on now,” they tell TF in a joint statement.
Finally, it’s worth noting that The Pirate Bay’s .onion address has been brought back online too, which allows people to browse the site over the Tor network.
While The Pirate Bay may not have returned with a bang, it was certainly fuel for heated debates and conspiracy theories. The recent announcements may not resolve all concerns, especially not those of the moderators and admins, but it’s good that the people behind the site are speaking out again. |
The immediate goal of these studies is to examine a novel mechanism of B- lymphocyte tolerance that involves the negative selection of antigen receptors, rather than the cells expressing them. Preliminary data is presented suggesting that encounter with autoantigen can induce the rearrangement of light chain genes in immature sIgM+ cells of the bone marrow. This was observed in transgenic mice bearing rearranged, functional Ig genes encoding an antibody specific for MHC class I alloantigens, in which the effect of different forms of autoantigen on B- cell development could be assessed. This proposed mechanism for B-cell tolerance in immature B-cells is termed the Receptor Editing hypothesis. The Specific Aim of this proposal is to test the Receptor Editing hypothesis. This hypothesis proposes that in autoreactive, immature B lymphocytes sIgM crosslinking by self antigens induces secondary immunoglobulin gene rearrangements that can alter their receptors and render them non-autoreactive. This problem will be approached by measuring the recombinase gene expression, Ig gene DNA rearrangements, and lifespans of immature, sIgM+ B-cells in the presence and absence of membrane bound autoantigen in vivo and in vitro.[unreadable]GRANT=R01AI17416 Rocky Mountain spotted fever (RMSF), caused by Rickettsia rickettsii, is considered the most severe of the human rickettsioses. Usually transmitted by the bite of a tick, the organisms are introduced directly beneath the skin during a blood meal where they invade and destroy the endothelial cells of small blood vessels. Our laboratory has established an in vitro model to study different parameters of rickettsiae-host interaction including the mechanisms of injury to endothelial cells infected by this organism. An understanding of the mechanism(s) of cell injury caused by R. rickettsii could significantly enhance existing knowledge of the pathogenesis of RMSF, and could provide for more specific therapeutic management of severe forms of the disease. The proposed study will be carried out in cultured human endothelial cells infected by the virulent Sheila Smith strain and the avirulent Iowa strain of R. rickettsii, and for comparison purposes, the virulent Breinl and the avirulent Madrid E strains of R. prowazekii. Current evidence from our laboratory strongly suggests that R. rickettsii-induced endothelial cell injury is mediated by oxygen radicals. Previously, it was assumed that the injury was initiated during intracellular growth of the organism. Now, however, since we have detected superoxide radical in large amounts in the culture supernatants during internalization of the rickettsiae into endothelial cells, we postulate that injury is initiated as a result of an aborted phagocytosis of the organism, that results in an oxidative burst. Rather than killing the rickettsiae, this oxidative burst, uncharacteristically, appears likely to lead to the death of the endothelial cell. Superoxide released at the surface of these cells during internalization is converted to toxic H202 by extracellular superoxide dismutase associated with the glycocalyses of endothelial cells. H202 readily passes through the plasma membrane and is capable of directly causing peroxidation of membrane lipids, or it may react with additional superoxide to produce the even more toxic hydroxyl radical. Catalase and pyruvate are known scavengers of H202 and protect endothelial cells from hydrogen peroxide generated from superoxide. The hypothesis that R. rickettsii causes abortive phagocytosis leading to early endothelial cell death will be tested by examining cells for reduced intracellular and extracellular peroxide levels following pretreatment with these scavengers, measuring intracellular glutathione and glutathione peroxidase levels, examining the cells by EM for dilatation of the E.R., and comparing them as above to the avirulent Iowa strain and the virulent Breinl and avirulent Madrid E strains of R. prowazekii, which appear not to cause oxidative injury. |
Mixed results over Easter for business
Eden businesses have reported mixed fortunes over the traditionally busy Easter period, with few able to pinpoint a single day as their busiest.
Eden businesses have reported mixed fortunes over the traditionally busy Easter period, with few able to pinpoint a single day as their busiest.
Eden Fishermen’s Club CEO John Hurst echoed the thoughts of many, saying the usual rush was more spaced out thanks to the public holidays occurring simultaneously with the NSW and Victorian school holidays.
“Usually Easter is just four days, bang,” Mr Hurst said.
“It wasn’t like that this year, but we were busier during the week than we have been in previous years.
“It just spread out a bit longer and wasn’t as intense.”
Eden Retailers Group president Melanie Warren agreed that the lead-up period was busier than usual, but said her Eden Gas & Gear store was still bustling over the long weekend.
Ms Warren compared the period to something that is more commonly seen later in the year.
“We had a fantastic lead-up to Easter, and Saturday was almost as busy as Christmas,” she said.
“It’s still ticking along for us, and even though it’s only just after the long weekend we have been busier than we would usually be at this time of year.”
Both Eden IGA and Ben Boyd Service Station reported busier than average weeks, but said the holiday period had not provided any great booms.
Adam Inwood from Ben Boyd Service Station said the weekend was “on par” with last year’s traffic, while Eden IGA owner Con Castrissios described the period as “a bit slower than last year”. |
Q:
What is the font?
I already tried to use Detexify but the closest suggestion was \mathfrak{Y}. I'm sure that it is not the case.
Does anybody have idea how to produce the letter used for the space cited on the image?
A:
It certainly looks like a \mathfrak{Y}, for instance from esstix fonts (see mathalfa).

Generally, a bus is a public transportation means always traveling a predetermined route so that a lot of people may conveniently ride the bus.
Advertisement sheets having advertisement phrases printed thereon are attached inside the bus or the advertisement sheets are attached on the outside of the bus, so that passengers riding the bus or people passing through the vicinity of a road on which the bus travels may confirm the contents of the advertisement.
However, since advertising materials such as advertisement phrases, and pictures attached on the outside of the bus, among the conventional advertisement means as described above, are generally configured in a structure to be printed and attached on both lateral faces of the bus, under the glass windows of the bus, in the form of a sheet or inserted in and supported by a supporting frame formed like a picture frame, there is a problem in that when the advertising materials coexist with the surrounding vehicles or road facilities, most of the advertising materials positioned at a lower portion on both lateral faces of the bus are hidden and difficult to be identified with naked eyes. Particularly, since they are more difficult to identified and cannot attract attention of consumers at night when illuminance is low, the efficiency of advertisement is lowered considerably. |
Dorsal and ventral stream mediated visual processing in genetic subtypes of Prader-Willi syndrome.
Previous work has suggested that there are specific deficits in dorsal stream processing in a variety of developmental disorders. Prader-Willi syndrome (PWS) is associated with two main genetic subtypes, deletion and disomy. Relative strengths in visual processing are shown in PWS, although these strengths may be specific to the deletion subtype. We investigated visual processing in PWS using an adapted Simon task which contrasted location (dorsal stream) and shape identity (ventral stream) tasks. Compared to a group of typically developing children, children with PWS deletion showed a greater degree of impairment in the dorsal stream task than in the ventral stream task, a pattern similar to that shown in a group of boys with Fragile-X syndrome. When matched on a measure of non-verbal ability, children with PWS disomy showed the opposite pattern with better performance in the location compared to the shape task, although these task performance asymmetries may have been linked to executive control processes. It is proposed that children with PWS deletion show a relative strength in visual processing in the ventral stream along with a specific deficit in dorsal stream processing. In contrast, children with PWS disomy show neither effect. |

Safeguarding Our Patients and Our Employees
At Celgene, we take special care to ensure patients’ safe access to our treatments. We have developed unique, industry-leading programs under which hundreds of thousands of patients worldwide have accessed the clinical benefits of our therapies.
These include:
• Educational materials for healthcare professionals to ensure the correct and safe use of our drugs
• Constant and professional attention to patient needs
• Extremely careful monitoring of the use of our products to ensure patients can benefit from Celgene’s innovative and life-enhancing therapies
Our commitment to safety is grounded in our company’s commitment to improving the lives of patients worldwide.
The safety of the patients we serve is of paramount importance. Our products are marketed and distributed with thorough labeling and product information. Celgene develops labeling and informational material in compliance with regulatory bodies such as the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the European Medicines Agency (EMA) and Health Canada.
All therapies currently marketed by Celgene are required to include labeling approved by the applicable regulatory bodies. Celgene’s Regulatory Affairs department is charged with enforcing the policies related to the labeling of marketed products. It is Celgene policy to maintain an internal Celgene Product Labeling Portal that provides access to current labeling worldwide as well as access to labeling for products on our external website.
The most critical part of our labeling efforts is conveying how to safely access our therapies, including:
In addition, detailed information is provided regarding the results and evaluations of the therapies during clinical trials and within the product pipeline. This information explains how the clinical trial was organized, the types of dosage and administration used and the results of the trial. This information reflects the most important studies that resulted in approval of the therapy for marketing and distribution for patient use.
Commitment to Drug Safety Surveillance Activities
Since the early days of Celgene, the company has been a leader in effective safety surveillance systems as a component of its broader risk management programs. Every Celgene employee has a role in monitoring and reporting on the safe use of our products. As the company that brought THALOMID® (thalidomide) to the marketplace, we have strived for excellence in patient safety. Safety is deeply engrained in our culture.
Counterfeiting medicines is a serious criminal offense and a major public health risk as counterfeit medicines may include impurities, incorrect quantities of active and inactive ingredients, no active ingredients, or contaminants that can lead to serious health issues. We strongly encourage patients to obtain our treatments through reputable pharmacies and healthcare providers who are licensed to dispense and distribute medicines.
To combat prescription therapy counterfeiting, Celgene takes deliberate, proactive steps to strictly enforce the quality and safety of our treatments. Celgene continues to explore and implement new strategies and technological developments to deter counterfeiting. We also work closely with regulatory bodies, law enforcement agencies, our industry peers, and consumer protection authorities worldwide to ensure safe and appropriate access to our therapies.
Reducing Risk for the Safe Use of Medicinal Products
Celgene is a world leader in pioneering risk minimization techniques to ensure safe use of medicinal products. The Global Risk Management Oversight Committee (GRMOC) is established to ensure that risks related to any of our commercial or development products are identified, assessed and managed effectively.
The GRMOC is responsible for directing our Corporate risk management strategy and approving all Risk Management Plans (RMPs) for both authorized and developmental products. The Committee operates across functions with standing members comprising Celgene’s Chief Medical Officer, and senior leadership for Regulatory Affairs, Drug Safety, Medical Affairs, Legal, and Technical Operations. The Committee is chaired by the Global Drug Safety & Risk Management (GDSRM) Head of Global Risk Management.
Celgene’s GDSRM department is involved in every step of the clinical development process—from inception to marketing—making sure Celgene’s products are safe, and patients are well informed. GDSRM personnel are embedded within clinical development and project teams to ensure continuity of safety assessment at every stage from pre- to post-marketing.
Celgene currently has a unique and comprehensive RMP for each product including a risk mitigation strategy. The overall aim of risk management is to ensure that the benefits of a particular product outweigh the risks by the greatest achievable margin for the patient. This risk management process has three stages that are interrelated. First, the safety profile of the medicinal product is characterized, including what is known and what is not known. Second, pharmacovigilance activities are planned as a key component of effective therapy regulation, clinical practices and public health programs. These activities are used to characterize risks, identify new risks and increase knowledge about the safety profile of therapies. Third, the risk minimization and mitigation planning and implementation occurs and the effectiveness of these activities is assessed.
Teratogenicity, the development of physiological abnormalities or fetal malformation, is a well identified risk for Celgene products REVLIMID®, THALOMID® and POMALYST®. In order to minimize and mitigate this risk global pregnancy prevention programs (PPP) are in place with the overall aim of preventing the risk of embryo-fetal exposure to these products. A secondary goal of the PPP is to inform prescribers, patients and pharmacists about the serious risks and safe-use conditions for utilizing these products. PPP standards to mitigate these risks are implemented in each country where these products are available through clinical studies or commercialization. The program design is adapted to the local regulatory and healthcare system environment. Celgene is one of the leaders in developing effective risk minimization plans such as our PPP. Our programs worldwide have been effective in mitigating the risk of embryo-fetal exposure.

Q:
Как прятать ActionBar при прокрутке?
Здравствуйте. Я разрабатываю мобильное приложение в Android Studio (в качестве тренировки) и захотелось реализовать исчезающий ActionBar. То бишь, у меня есть Activity, которая вмещает в себя Fragment c ListView.
Задача: при прокручивании списка (вниз, к примеру) ActionBar исчезал, а при прокручивании вверх - появлялся.
Подскажите, пожалуйста, как это реализовать или в каком направлении рыть информацию.
A:
setOnScrollListener на список
тут сложности, потому немного помогу, так как скролл не возвращает направление, надо написать свой, у меня такой есть ( у меня расширение скролла nostra13, тебе надо будет сделать от обычного (implements OnScrollListener)
ну и в конце применить его
myList.setOnScrollListener(new AdvicePauseOnScrollListener(true, true,
likeListMyLike, new AdvicePauseOnScrollListener.IOnScrollCallBack() {
@Override
public void doing(int visibleItemCount, int totalItemCount) {
//
}

public void scrollDirection(boolean direction) {
if (direction) {
// показываем бар
} else {

For months, furious protests have battered Iraq, driven by frustration at a dysfunctional economy, corruption and the pervasive influence of a foreign power: Iran.
Then a rocket attack killed an American contractor in Iraq, American airstrikes hit an Iranian-backed Iraqi militia, and Iraqis’ anger turned back on the United States, culminating with a break-in at its embassy compound in Baghdad on Tuesday.
The airstrikes and the embassy standoff, with demonstrators drawn largely from Iranian-backed militias, brought the United States to its most serious crisis in the country in years — and pulled it deeper into the volatile problems engulfing Iraq and its neighbor Iran.
Complicated at the best of times, the relations between Iraq, Iran and the United States are now even more fraught. |
Home Security
Home Security Check Program
Trained volunteers will access the residence, multi-housing complex or business from the street, around the buildings and inside. Doors, windows, landscaping, lighting etc will be reviewed for security.
The homeowner will be requested to maintain an inventory list of engraved items to provide to the police in the event that they are stolen. A list of suggested improvements will be left with the owner. A security check is not a guarantee that the homeowner will not experience a theft but it is one more deterrent against it.
Don't Make It Easy for Thieves
Don't open the door to strangers! If you live in an apartment remember: No key, no entry
Install a motion sensor
Lock windows and doors even when you are home
Report all suspicious persons and activity to police
Trim trees and shrubbery that may provide concealment spots for thieves
Don't leave tools and ladders lying around
Don't Welcome Thieves
In warm weather, it is so tempting to leave doors and windows open, but you might as well roll out the welcome mat for some unwanted guests. Residents are reminded that even if you are inside your home, doors and windows should remain shut and locked, and all valuables such as laptop computers, small gaming systems and jewelry should be kept out of sight.
If you need to open windows, install window locks which prevent them from being opened far enough to gain entry, on:
Install auxiliary locks
Jimmy plates
Safety bars
Sliding patio doors
If you have questions about how keep your home safe, contact Community Policing and sign up for a home security audit. |
Reflection as a means to foster client-centred practice.
Client-centred practice embraces important concepts about partnership and justice that promote client participation in meaningful occupations. It is important to understand how occupational therapists can engage in and continue to develop client-centred practice within the constraints of everyday settings. An action research study was undertaken by a group of four occupational therapists to describe insights gained, and to show the effectiveness of participation in reflective education to help foster client-centred practice. The six main insights generated by the group involve: congruence, understanding the potential, environmental factors, personal factors, expectations, and lifelong learning. Although actual change to daily practice was limited, group members felt the reflective group discussion provided them with a launch pad to start a journey toward more client-centred practice. This may be the key to moving beyond simply changing the face and language of occupational therapy practice toward a deeper understanding and implementation of client-centred practice to improve client outcomes. Suggestions are provided for implementing reflection to help continue to develop your own practice. |
Q:
Collapse and expand a list
<dl class="">
<dt class="foo-dt">@Html.ActionLink("foo-label", "Foo", "Bar")</dt>
@foreach (var foo in FooBar.Items)
{
<dd class="foo-dd">@Html.ActionLink(@foo.Naam, @foo.Index, "Bar")</dd>
}
... More of similar dt/dd collections.
</dl>
This is for a sidebar menu and I have to use these specific tags. (Boss ordered this.)
The above HTML generates a list of links with multiple bold header links followed by regular item links. Clicking the header displays the items inside a grid. Clicking the item shows details of the specific item. The site has been set up like this and I need to keep it so.
But I was asked if I can make the header collapse the items below it and only let it expand when the user clicks on the link. It would then display a grid in the main window plus the items as options in the sidebar.
When the user clicks another header, the current header must collapse again and the other grid needs to be displayed with the items in the sidebar. So basically, the sidebars will shop all headers and just the items of the selected header.
Could this be done? Sure, but I don't have a clue where to start. Well, okay. The tags will probably have to include an additional class identifying them as collapsible items, with an additional CSS style and some JavaScript or JQuery script. But since most examples on the internet are collapsible div tags and not dl/dt/dd tags, I'm missing a good example.
Does anyone have a good example to make this all work?
A:
$('dt.foo-class').each(function(){
$(this).click(function(){
$('dd.foo-class').show("slow");
});
});
in this you replace foo-dt with the headers class.. diferent for each header but it has to be the same with dd ex:if header is foo-dt then list is foo-dd.
for the changein beetween the headers use this:
prevHeader ="";
$('dt.foo-class').each(function(){
$(this).click(function(){
if(prevHeader == ""){
prevHeader = "dd"+$(this).attr("class");
}else{
if(prevHeader != $(this).attr("class");){
$("dd"+prevheader).hide('slow');}
}
$('dd.foo-class').show("slow");
prevHeader = $(this).attr("class");
});
});

Quality of life and cognitive function in patients with pituitary insufficiency.
This review is concerned with the psychosocial functioning and the quality of life in patients with pituitary insufficiency who are receiving conventional hormone replacement therapy. The possible negative effects of pituitary surgery, treatment with irradiation, and suboptimal replacement regimens with hormones other than growth hormone on mood, behaviour and cognitive functioning are discussed. The influence of growth hormone deficiency per se, and the outcome of growth hormone therapy in adult patients are addressed in detail. A possible mechanism for a direct effect of growth hormone on the brain is presented. |

You know I love you like cooked food, I’m a good dude
You know I love you like cooked food, I’m a good dude
Let’s hit the Roscoe’s on Peko, I’m in a hood mood
Sittin’ here thinkin’ ‘bout all the things I could do
So what you should do is…
Pack your bags, we poppin’ tags, her shoe game sick
We drinkin’ Ace out of Red Bottles, choosey shit
Fuck with me and you’re famous
Kanye ate my bitch, now she’s away from the neighbours
Camera flashes from strangers
Turn a Range to a manger
Jesus piece on her neck, and my baby an angel
Fell straight up out of Heaven into what we into
Who knew we’d grew into, whatever we into
That’s too much for your mental
So we snapback that
Game on point like the stripes on my Gucc backpack
My ladybug, and she cool like that
And them tunes, why you move like that
You know my lady always on
She know I need it so
She know she can get
All that, all that, all that, all that, all that, all that
My lady got me going
I’m where she already knows
She knows she can get
All that, all that, all that, all that, all that, all that
You my lady
And that pussy feel like a haven
We can make babies
Let’s be creative
She say leave them tricks alone but I’m a skater
I love her like her daddy, told her no man would
I got a lot of bad bitches, she the only one good
I got her flowers for nothing, she smiling and blushing
If I don’t answer my phone, then we probably fucking
She love my tattoos
Ain’t got no room for her name but I’mma make room
She let her hair down, we have a stare down
She said “I’m glad you ate it, where my cabbie gone?”
Told her “I can be your chauffeur”
Dick like a limo, multiple orgasms
That’s my M.O
Redbone pretty
I kiss her from her titty to her clitty
You know my lady always on
She know I need it so
She know she can get
All that, all that, all that, all that, all that, all that
My lady got me going
I’m where she already knows
She knows she can get
All that, all that, all that, all that, all that, all that
Sean Don, whoa
Look, my girl’s sweet like my hotel floor
From where they ran through more keys than a hotel door
Indeed, give her the D now the whole hotel know
Feel like I’m looking down from Heaven
Screaming “Oh, Hell no!”
When you hop on top, girl, that’s what it feel like
She always had a player back like them field lights
And every time I left it ain’t feel right
Cheated on her and she stayed
That’s just real life
Cause it’s hard when you ain’t on the same coast
Burning bread in the club so all these girls want toast
Hoes try and wade but we ain’t on the same boat
They trying to sink everything that we made float
She told me ‘bout her ex, man, her old boy stories
And how she had a dildo
You know, toy stories
Don’t fuck her on her period
Ain’t into horror stories
I take her to my favorite restaurant
She won’t bore me, ‘cause she know me
You know my lady always on
She know I need it so
She know she can get
All that, all that, all that, all that, all that, all that
My lady got me going
I’m where she already knows
She knows she can get
All that, all that, all that, all that, all that, all that
I’m feeling your style
I’m loving your swag
I like how your jeans fit
You’re killing that bag
You working them heels
Your diamonds are real
You give me the chills, girl
You all that… |

Q:
How can I change the icon for a binary file on my desktop?
I want to change icon of a binary file which is placed on my desktop. The binary file is related to unetbootin. I want to execute unetbootin from the desktop so I want to change the icon.
How can I achieve this?
A:
You must be talking about a .desktop file? open it with gedit, find the Icon= line and change the icon to what you want it to be.
Or, the GUI way: right click on the .desktop file > properties > click on the icon and browse to another icon.
By the way, you need to make it executable to have it work from the desktop!

Some people are so stupid they deserve to be arrested. Like an accused bank robber from Atlanta, Georgia, whose failed bank robbery saw him head out to his getaway taxi—only to realize he didn't have any money for the fare and return to the bank to take out some cash.
From the Atlanta Journal-Constitution:
"According to Chamblee police, the taxi driver said she picked up the [suspect] at the Chamblee MARTA station and transported him round trip to the Wells Fargo.
Upon their return to the MARTA station, the man told the driver he needed to go to the station parking lot to get money out of his car to pay for the trip.
The driver, concerned her passenger was going to skip out without paying, blocked his car with the taxi and got the attention of a MARTA officer. The officer didn't know about the bank robbery and talked Gladston into going back to the bank to withdraw money to pay for the cab ride." |
It’s a great catchphrase, isn’t it? It’s even better when it truly means something.
