As it says on the official blog for the crypto exchange, the new upgrade will allow for multiple entities to set up a number of sub-accounts under one organisation and provide control of access to one master account and only that account will be able to control the other accounts under it.
For those that don’t know, an API key (Application Programming Interface key) is a code which is passed at the same time as a web service in order to identify the origin of the request. Basically, if there are private API keys and public API keys, it is usually wise to share the public key when required and the private key to those you trust.
As reported,there will be some differences between the sub-accounts even though they will fall under the term ‘master account’. For example, the sub-account and the master account will be able to create and edit API keys but only the master account will be allowed to delete all of the APIs. The sub-account will be able to delete its own API keys. In a similar sense, both the accounts can start or buy orders whereas the master account will be able to cancel all orders.
When you start getting behind on your bills, the thoughts of default, repossession, bankruptcy, and loss of quality of life is enough to make anyone fearful and avoidant. Bankruptcy attorney Joel R. Spivack specializes in working with his New Jersey clients to develop successful debt management strategies and solutions. You don’t have to fight this battle alone. Defaulting on car or house loans has serious consequences because it equates to breaking your loan contract. In the state of New Jersey, the bank or loan provider has a right to repossess your home or car when you are in loan default.
Some loans may have a grace period in which you can cure your default, but once the grace period is over, the loan provider can come to your house to collect. Always remember that debt collectors or loan owners can only repossess the property included in the loan. They can’t damage or take other property or threaten you. The repossession process is expensive and time-consuming, so the loan provider will likely be willing to work with you on other options. If a repossession is occurring, then you need to know that it’s illegal to interfere with the process. Rather than attempt to avoid the undesirable consequences of missing payments, hire an experienced debt attorney who can work with your lender or help you file for bankruptcy.
Joel R. Spivack has 25 years of experience advising clients on debt relief options, bankruptcy filings and alternatives to bankruptcy. As a debt relief attorney, I understand how confusing and scary it is to feel like you are drowning in a sea of debt. Don’t try to fight against creditors or debt collectors alone. Together, we can develop a workable strategy for tackling your debts, preventing repossession when possible, halting wage garnishment and protecting your rights. As your trusted representative, I’m committed to your long-term financial well-being. The law office of Joel R. Spivack can be reached at 856-861-6203 or via our online contact form.
BOOK BLURB: Mahima is a teacher leading an ordinary life until the arrival of a new principal at her school. The new principal makes life miserable for Mahima and all the other teachers. Choosing not to be a victim, Mahima unites the teachers and inspires a mutiny against the principal. However, the principal will not go down without a fight.
Will Mahima and her colleagues be able to rid the school of the devious principal? Will good triumph over evil?
REVIEW: Mutiny at Primrose High is a story about the struggles and problems faced by school teachers and how they overcome these problems. Mahima Bakshi, is English teacher at Primrose High, one of the leading schools of Ahmedadbad, Gujarat. Mrs. Anita Menon is appointed as principal, who is in her mid-fifties. As soon as she join school as principal, she starts changing many rules of the school which disturbs the teachers. Mahima follows those rules with her colleague Purna and others as she don't have any option to go against such rules which sounds irrational to her. Mrs. Menon tries her best to break the unity of teachers and do whatever she feels is right, without thinking about the teachers and children. Mahima with her colleagues decides to stop Mrs. Menon's wrong doings in smart ways. I would like to appreciate her intelligence to deal with the tactics of Mrs Menon. To know whether she is successful in her attempt or not, you'll have to read the book.
This story inspires us to always stand against wrong, no matter what your position is in any organisation. It also proves that if we have strong determination to stand against wrong, nobody can stop us. Also this story again strengthens my belief that unity is strength.
I enjoyed reading this unique story. The language used is simple. This book is worth reading and I would recommend this book to all readers who are looking to read different story.

For Chihuahuas, eye problems can be a significant cause of concern. After all, while they are a relatively healthy dog breed, their protruding eyes and close proximity to the ground put them at a high risk for both eye problems and infections. The following examines the most common eye problems in Chihuahuas, as well as the causes and treatment options.
If your veterinarian determines your Chihuahua is suffering from dry eye, he or she will likely order eye lubricating drop or medication designed to stimulate tear production. In addition, you can gently wipe your Chihuahua’s eyes with a warm washcloth several times a day, especially after they have woken up. While it may not seem like a serious condition, dry eyes do have the potential to cause permanent damage or blindness if left untreated.
If this is something small, you may be able to use saline solution to flush the object out of his eye. If flushing is ineffective, you will need to go to the vet immediately, where they have both the proper training and equipment to safely remove the object.
Usually caused by the type of breed, aging, or inflammation of the uvea (the eye’s middle layer), corneal endothelial dystrophy occurs when not enough fluid is getting to the cornea (the eye’s outer layer), which leaves it dehydrated and causes the cornea to take on a bluish haze. This hazy color tends to be the first indication of a problem, though if it is allowed to progress, your Chihuahua may also exhibit some visual impairment.
If your dog suffers from this eye condition and the vet determines he needs treatment, a topical hyperosmotic agent that draws fluid out of the eye and reduces intraocular pressure, will most likely be prescribed, though in some cases no treatment is needed. This is a life-long condition and tends to be especially severe in Chihuahuas.
Treatment usually includes topical antibiotics, medications that control eye muscle spasms, and pain medication. If your Chihuahua continues to paw at his eye, he may be fitted with a neck collar. Thankfully, they usually heal in less than a week.
Though it is not very common, lens luxation is an eye condition you should be familiar with.
Treatment is dependent on the location of the lens and the potential for vision. Typically, this includes surgically removing the lens and lowering the pressure within the eye. In severe cases, the removal of the entire eye may be necessary.
Cataracts usually happens when a dog gets older. It causes the dog’s pupil to become cloudy and whitish and the dog’s vision will worsen over time, eventually causing blindness. Surgery is the treatment for this condition.
Dogs with glaucoma often become blind from the condition. It is caused by pressure on the optic nerve by a fluid buildup. It can also cause headaches for the dog. Surgery is usually the treatment for this and sometimes the eye has to be removed.
Cherry eye is the prolapsed gland of the 3rd eyelid. It causes no pain or vision loss but it does look odd. It can be cured by a steroid ointment but if that doesn’t work, then surgery is recommended.
This is just a look at some of the eye problems Chihuahuas frequently experience. Keep in mind that the preceding information is meant to be informative and should not be used in lieu of a visit to the veterinarian. If your dog is having eye problems, please get them checked out by your vet.
If it’s under the eye Tracey, it sounds like tear stains. As a former groomer, we saw this a lot. It’s more noticeable in light colored dogs but you can see it in other colors too.
You can get something called Angel Eyes wipes at your local pet store or on Amazon here http://amzn.to/2qnr51a (that’s an affiliate link) to gently wipe under the eyes to get rid of it.
If it’s only happening under one eye, it could be a blocked tear duct or other eye problem that should be checked by your vet.
My chiwawa is starting to get a cloudy greenish blue tinge to his eyes. But it’s only noticeable in certain lighting, also he paws at he’s eyes a lot. It really has me worried. What could be wrong?
No that’s not normal Deborah. Dogs do see better from the side than the front because of the way their eyes are placed, but they still should be able to see in front of them. I would ask your vet what can be done, of anything to help your fur baby see better.
My chihuahua has one eye that at first started with a red conjunctiva and the third eyelid slightly protruding and then orbital swelling. He was initially put on clavamox bid and an anti inflammatory. This didn’t help. We saw a veterinary ophthalmologist and he gave as prednisolone eye drops to use qid. He at first improved but after the 4th day the eye started to exhibit redness and swelling again. He is now pawing at it and squinting. We have an ultrasound scheduled for next week. I am just wondering if you have any thoughts?
Poor little chi! I can’t imagine what that could be. What does the vet say? Could it be a tumor? Keep us updated and let us know what happens with the ultrasound Marketa.
My little chi boy is 7 months old and he seems to be having slight problems seeing close up what should I do? And does that mean he has eye problems he also has runny eyes that some time has eye buggers Please Help.
The runny eyes is pretty common and could be allergies. That could make it harder for him to see too. When you see the eye boogers, wipe them out with a damp washcloth.
Next time you are at your vet’s mention that you think he is having trouble seeing close up and let them check him.
My chi puppy was fine two days ago when I got home from work tonight my pups eyes could not open I cleaned all the eye boogers away but he still will not open them on his own what do I do?
Is he okay otherwise Matthew or is he acting sick? If it’s just the eye thing and otherwise he’s acting normal, it could be allergies or more seriously, an eye infection. If he can’t open them, take him to a vet because you don’t want to risk blindness.
Our Chihuahua had very severe glaucoma and the eye doctor was able to reduce it dramatically (to a 3) with eye drops.
That’s great Kay! What kind of drops are they? Is it a prescription?
I just noticed my Chi has a swollen eye. How do I get the swelling down?
Yikes, get your chi to a vet as soon as possible! You don’t want your fur baby to lose their eye!

12. Beginning of Something Exciting!
11. Exploring Neighborhoods & Packing Goodie Bags!
Today, all the Neighborhood Assessment Project groups presented on their neighborhood of choice. It was shocking to compare my group’s neighborhood, Barrio Logan, with other ones such as Hillcrest. While Barrio consists mostly of a lower income minority population, Hillcrest caters to a younger, hip population. This is evident in the types of shops and housing that are available to residents. The average income ranged from $25,000 to over $100,000. While it is obvious that there are differences in wealth within cities, it was interesting to learn about specific, individual neighborhoods and how they vary in the provision of health services, public transportation, and affordable housing. Something that stood out to me was that even the more rich neighborhoods lacked easy access to health services and public transportation.
We ended the class by packing goodie bags full of socks, lotion, and soap for the attendees of Saturday’s Senior Prom at the West Center! Everybody worked together to pack over 100 bags quickly. I was unable to attend the prom, but I’m sure that the seniors enjoyed the activities, food, and music that my classmates planned.
We had the last of our Extraordinary Person presentations today, and it was definitely emotional for many of us. A few classmates teared up while presenting, and that made my eyes water too. I felt like I learned about my classmates even more throughout this process. It was one thing to see the photos of our smiling EPs, but it was another to hear about our EP's values, losses, and strength. Behind every smile is a story that is so unique and complex. All of us go through life everyday alongside thousands of strangers, each with a different story. If we had the chance to get to know everyone we walk past, we would learn about the reasons behind their actions and feelings. We would learn to be more compassionate and understanding. We would treat our family and friends with even more patience and kindness.
However, some of us tend to be in our own bubble, and are only aware of our own struggles. That causes us to see people and situations from just one perspective. If we take the time to truly get to know the community members we live with, we’d have a better idea of how to make life a little easier for everyone. I’m glad that Life Course Scholars is helping me realize this point even more, especially since I am a Public Health major hoping to work with underserved populations. If we don’t understand the people we work with, how can we help them?
9. Champagne & Smiles @ Casa de Manana!
On this Tuesday evening, we had our Rock n’ Roll themed dance at Casa de Manana! A majority of the class arrived early at 6:30pm to help decorate the hall. In the beginning, I was nervous since there weren’t that many seniors. However, they started to trickle in in ones and twos. One couple came in holding hands, which was really heartwarming to see!
The live band started to play, and a few of my classmates and the seniors started to show off their dances moves on the floor. Many of the seniors we got to talk to were in their 80s and 90s, but they still got their energy and danced better than all of us. Midway, we had a raffle that was MC’ed by our very own classmate Joey! I noticed a man who was especially eager to win, telling us to shake the box of tickets really well. When his number was finally called, he raised his ticket and let out a loud and strong “YES!!!” which was absolutely hilarious.
In the very end, I tried to encourage some more seniors to go up to the dance floor, but many kindly refused. I then spotted Dee, one of the women that we spoke to the last time we came to Casa. I went up to her, held her hand, and led her to the dance floor. She agreed with a smile and then two other ladies followed. One of them was a 92 year old woman who was actually on the dance floor for almost every song. She’s so cute! My classmates on the floor welcomed everyone into the circle with cheers. I had absolutely no idea how to move my body so I just followed everyone’s moves. When the music ended, I couldn’t believe that it was over. I wanted the dance to last longer because I loved the energy and vibes in the room. There were many seniors who didn’t dance, and I had thought that they didn’t enjoy the event as much. However, I was glad to know that they enjoyed it equally as much after reading my classmates’ blog posts. In fact, one of the elderly men came up to me and expressed how thankful he was for this event on his way out. Of course, many of the elders couldn’t dance because of physical restrictions, so it was awesome to know that they still enjoyed the raffle and live music.
Today’s class was filled with presentations, starting from the Oral History Projects to the Group Presentation on the book This Chair Rocks. I finally presented my memoir on my grandma, and I felt so accomplished when Trish Benesh, the author of the memoir book we read for this project, commented on my choice of quotes in my presentation. During my two-hour interview with my grandma, I took an excessive amount of notes because I thought that I would need all the details I can get. However, when I was putting together my digital memoir booklet, I realized that I didn’t have space to write a whole essay about my grandma. Therefore, I just wrote a brief rundown of 3 memories and emphasized a few translated phrases from my interview that were especially deep or heartbreaking. I think that the quotes represent the stages of my grandma’s life really well and I was extra careful in translating them from Chinese to English, so I was glad that Trish had a positive comment about them.
This past Monday, my Neighborhood Assessment Project (NAP) group took our first trip to Barrio Logan to assess how age friendly it is. We actually had quite a scary start. Right when I got out of the car, an aggressive homeless woman assumed that I had taken pictures of her or the murals (I did not do either) and started yelling at me while pointing her umbrella. I was really caught off guard and thought that she was going to start a fight. We got back into the car, and while driving off, I see her pull a man towards us while continuing to yell and point her umbrella. I couldn’t really focus after that incident but we found a few notable places like the Logan Heights Health Center, Mother’s Nutritional Center, and a community college. The nutritional center stood out to me the most because it offers a straightforward way for mothers to grab their WIC groceries without having to deal with that in huge grocery stores. I was really happy to know that this service exists.The little store was clean and organized with fresh produce (like papayas and avocados!) and packaged foods, with their names and prices clearly displayed. My groupmate mentioned how it would be nice if our hometown San Francisco had this type of service. I agreed and thought that neighborhoods like Chinatown would benefit from centers like this that breaks down complicated procedures for residents who do not speak English and have trouble finding the items that are covered by WIC.
The highlight of today’s class was seeing my classmates’ Oral History Projects on their Extraordinary Person (EP). Some created artsy booklets about their EP’s life while others put together an airplane model and jewelry box. It felt really special to get to hear the EPs’ unique stories about their childhood, love life, and journey. Each story evoked different emotions, but I was smiling the whole time because everyone was beaming while introducing their EP.
I learned about the struggles that all of them faced - being a refugee, starting life all over again, feeling scared for their life everyday, and raising multiple kids. Through the stories I heard today and the stories that my own EP (my grandma) shared with me, I realize that I am so fortunate to be living a life that is free of struggles other than first world problems. I feel safe, and it’s really sad to know that people out there don’t feel safe even at home. When I was learning about my grandma’s childhood, I felt as if she lived in a different world. This project is definitely opening my eyes and giving me a glimpse into the lives of people from all walks of life.
We also briefly threw out ideas about what kind of Healthy Aging Projects we want to organize for next quarter. For me, I love cooking and trying out foods from different cultures, so I’m considering an intergenerational recipe-sharing and cooking type of event. It would be so fun to get to know the elders’ stories behind their recipes and how the dishes fit into their childhood. My other classmates built off this idea and suggested cooking competitions and healthy cooking demos. There are so many possibilities, so it’ll be hard to decide on just one or two. I love how this program allows all of us to independently design our own projects with the same goal and making them come to life!
We started class with the first current event presentations for the quarter. The topics covered included loneliness, caretakers’ stress, and driving as elders. The question that got me thinking the most is deciding what age is too old to drive. This question arose from recent news of the UK’s Prince Philip, who is 97, getting into a car accident.
Setting the rules for when someone has to give their license is extremely difficult since driving often represents freedom for nearly all of us. This didn’t apply to my family’s life as much since I am from San Francisco, where the public transportation is amazing compared to other cities. In S.F., there are bus stops everywhere and buses come frequently, so it’s easy to go to any corner of the city. However, after coming to San Diego, I realize how isolating it can feel to not have a car. A 13 minute drive may translate to an hour bus ride. Now, I can see how important it is for a city to provide reliable public transportation or other ride services to its residents.
This reminded me of my travels to Asia (specifically Seoul, Tokyo, Shanghai, and Singapore) where the public transportation system in big cities are spot on with providing frequent and extensive services. In Seoul and Tokyo, a majority of the population rely on public transportation, and it was evident whenever I hopped on the subway. There was a mix of the elderly population going to the market and the younger adults heading to work. The subway maps are easy to read, and there are many exits to take people closer to their destination. I truly miss Asia’s subway systems because of their efficiency, and I often wonder why American cities cannot offer the same.
For the rest of class, we discussed the Neighborhood Assessment Projects (NAPs), individual and group Healthy Aging Projects (HAPs), and book presentations. After a few weeks of confusion, I was glad to finally get clarification on the specifics of these projects and get started on them. My group is analyzing Barrio Logan for the NAP, and I’m excited to get to know this area that’s full of history and culture. Overall, it was really overwhelming to hear about all our projects at once today, but I’m confident that every one of us will pull through and do so well!
Today, we took a tour of the beautiful Casa de Mañana Retirement Community right next to the ocean. Right when we walked in, I was blown away by the grandeur of the common area and hallways. Fancy, ornate sofa chairs filled the common room and the hallways were lined with unique, handmade art pieces. In comparison to the affordable housing options, the hotel-like Casa de Mañana seemed like a whole new world.
We were told that many of the residents have had higher education, and that the rent ranges from $3,500 upwards to around $12,000 a month. I was completely mind blown. We took a look at the gym that came with personal training services, the dining room that looked like a huge restaurant, and the expensive villa residences that offered a full ocean view. One other thing that caught my attention was that every resident who lives at Casa has a rosebush dedicated to them. That is such a wonderful touch, and it’s crazy to know that Casa has so many resources for their residents and they are able to do something extra like this. This is definitely a huge contrast from what we’ve seen and discussed in this class so far.
We then met 3 elders (who are in their 90s!) named Dee, Helen, & Ed. They gave us a brief rundown about their life and talked about their education, children, and life here at Casa de Mañana. Between Casa and the affordable housing communities, I noticed a difference in the topics that residents talk about when we asked about their lives. At Casa, the elders mentioned their educational degrees, professions, and achievements. When we spoke to Irene at the Potiker Residence last week, she mainly elaborated on her hardships and hope for the future. Just by noticing what people choose to share about themselves can really tell us about the types of life events they experienced. It was interesting to see and hear from different populations within the San Diego community, and it definitely puts things into perspective.
The menu of the day at the Potiker Senior Residence.
On this Saturday morning, our class went out into the city to tour affordable housing options for seniors. We saw from a range of transitional housing with poor air ventilation to LGBT-friendly housing with exceptional attention to detail.
The places that stuck on my mind were the ones that were the first two we toured in detail. This included the Sara Francis Hometel & Potiker Family Senior Residence. We got the chance to peek inside a vacant room at the Sara Francis and I was shocked. Right when the door was unlocked, an extremely unpleasant smell, accompanied by around 10 flies poured out. In the 100 square feet space, there was a bed frame and a sink area. This was one of the many rooms in this residence that shared one toilet, one shower, and one washer & dryer. Some residents had aggressive notes and questionable items attached to their doors. Seeing these residents’ living situation made me sad and a bit mad. I wouldn’t want my grandparents or anyone to live in Sara Francis because of the lack of space, amenities, and safety. While looking around, a resident straightforwardly told us to not live there because “it’s disgusting.” That was heartbreaking to hear. Although this place is transitional housing, I would want the residents to feel safe and at home even if it’s temporary. I feel like if there were basic cleaning services, the hometel would feel a bit more bearable to live in.
At the Potiker Residence, I was glad to hear that the staff provides a variety of on-site services like the provision of two prepared meals a day. As a major foodie who’s interested in nutrition, I was curious to see what was on the menu. At first glance, I saw that the curated meals include healthier options such as whole grain-crusted fish, oven fried chicken, and brown rice in place of their less healthy counterparts. There are also plenty of vegetables and fruit incorporated into the meals. However, I saw that a good portion of what’s on the menu included typical American dishes like sloppy joes, macaroni and cheese, and whipped potatoes with gravy. Since the seniors who live at Potiker come from different cultural backgrounds, it would be nice to see more ethnic dishes on the menus. From my personal experience, I know that my dad and grandparents love their Chinese food, so I honestly cannot imagine them fully enjoying the dishes on Potiker’s menu. Food offers feelings of comfort and belonging in cultures, so the menu was something that stood out to me while touring the kitchen.
After both teams came back with a loss, three big mouths squared off in the boardroom in The Apprentice UK Series 5 Episode 6, and Noorul came out the loser and was fired.
The teams are instructed to pack an overnight bag. They find out after packing they’re going to Manchester and Liverpool. Probably won’t need the flip flops and swimsuit.
The task is to visit 12 companies and choose two products they wish to try to sell to dealers. Everybody will be given an order book and is expected to sell, so that way three people won’t be claiming the same sale like last week.
Mona and Howard go to Empire. Ben and Yasmina go to Ignite.
Mona volunteers to lead Empire because she doesn’t trust anyone else.
Lorraine steps forward for Ignite because she wants to make people do what she wants rather than being ignored. She says she goes with a gut feeling when she gets one, but she’s slow to get ideas.
Mona’s team has made their first decision on a dog leash that allows two people to walk their dog at the same time. Lorraine considers the product embarrassing, so her team is not interested.
They opt for another pet product instead, a cat playhouse. Their second choice is a shopping bag that clips on a bicycle. Yasmina raises concerns about weight distribution, but they go with it since the inventor assures them it’s been tested.
Empire’s second product is a sleeping bag with arms and legs. Howard’s only doubt is that he doesn’t see either of the two retailers that afternoon being interested in either product. They shrug that worry off, but Margaret’s not so sure that’s wise.
The first retail destination is an independently run hardware store. Yasmina and Lorraine will make the pitch there for their team. One of the executives they meet with offers the concern already mentioned about the bicycle bag, that weight distribution will be a problem. Yasmina’s suggestion: buy two. The cat playhouse, however, does generate some interest. They ask for them to order 5-6,000, meaning they would need to sell 400 a week. They disagree that would be possible. Upon leaving, Lorraine says that was her worse pitch in 20 years.
