Front Row Features
HOLLYWOOD—Anna Kendrick got her start in musical theater, earning a Tony nomination at the tender age of 12 for her role as Dinah Lord in the 1997 Broadway musical production of “High Society.” One of her earliest film roles was playing a musical theater student in “Camp.” With “Pitch Perfect,” she returns to her roots, playing a college student, who reluctantly gets involved in an a cappella group, comprised of an odd assortment of outcasts, and ends up becoming it’s star performer.
The comedy is a mash up of “Bring it On” and “Glee,” only with the performers singing without musical instruments. Directed by “Avenue Q’s” Jason Moore, “Pitch Perfect” was written by “The New Girl” writer Kay Cannon, and based on Mickey Rapkin’s book documenting the fascinating world of competitive a cappella singing. She stars alongside Brittany Snow, Rebel Wilson, Anna Camp and Skylar Astin.
Kendrick arrives for an interview wearing a lacy brown print blouse and short black skirt ensemble, and five-inch black heels, which she insists are comfortable.
At just 27, the petite brunette is one of the most in-demand young actresses in Hollywood, following her standout performance as George Clooney’s tightly wound assistant in 2009’s “Up in the Air,” in which she earned an Academy Award nomination.
Besides her comedic turn in “Pitch Perfect,” Kendrick has two other movies currently in theaters. She plays Jake Gyllenhaal’s sexy girlfriend in the hit police drama “End of Watch,” and she provides the voice of the monster-fighting schoolboy’s sister Courtney in the animated horror comedy “ParaNorman.”
It’s no wonder filmmakers want to work with her. She not only is a versatile actress, she also is charming, witty and unafraid to act girly.
Q: Having started out in musical theater, do you any horror stories from those early days?
Kendrick: I forgot the lyrics to “Good Ship Lollipop” when I was five at a dance recital and I decided to sit on stage and cry and then I went off stage. That was scarring.
Q: What was your favorite song in “Pitch Perfect,” and why?
Kendrick: “No Diggity,” because it’s the best song ever.
Q: Did Jason bring any of his “Avenue Q” puppets to the set? And what was he like to work with?
Kendrick: Yes, and we played with them. (She chuckles.) Not really. But Jason is amazing. He’s really smart. He’s really on. I think he sees everything from every angle and he has such amazing taste. He makes you feel safe when you’re in a pool singing “No Diggity” and wondering, is this going to come across well, or am I just going to come across like this tiny white girl singing “No Diggity.” He was a great guy to have as the captain of the ship.
Q: What were the most fun sequences to shoot for musical numbers and what was the most challenging?
Kendrick: The final number was both the most challenging and the most fun. That was a moment where it really felt like it was just the 10 of us girls supporting each other. The crew was there, but they weren’t really close to us and the audience was full of (extras). It felt like we really had to rely on each other and support each other and feed off each other’s energy in a way that I think is exclusive to theatrical performance. I thought that was a really beautiful thing to look around at all these girls and know that they’re my co-workers and my friends and that we’re kind of in it for each other. We’re not really thinking about the cameras; we were just trying to be there to support each other.
Q: What is your go-to karaoke song?
Kendrick: (She gets out her smart phone and starts scrolling through her songs.) I’m looking to see if there’s a song that I can start pretending is my karaoke song. (After a moment, she finds one.) I just realized what it is and I don’t even know how I memorized it, but I did, which is Jay-Z’s “99 Problems.” I know that song by heart.
Q: You’ve you got three films out at the same time. How did you juggle doing them? Was there one project more challenging than the others?
Kendrick: They’re all so different, but this was more of a time commitment so I worked a lot more on this one. But, obviously, each one presented its individual challenges. This one was hard and I remember saying to Jason, when I was kind of debating whether or not I was up for it, I remember saying to him I’m not actually 18. At some point, I’m going to get really sick and I’m going to be like singing and dancing and acting my face off all over this movie. So it made me feel like such an old lady, because it really wore me down—in the best way. I was shooting (the Robert Redford directed thriller “The Company You Keep”) and trying to promote the drama “50/50” at the same time. So, I was tired but it was also so much fun. It wasn’t like I was playing someone with cancer the entire time. It was like I got to go to work and mess around with these girls all the time, which was really great.
Q: Was there anything cut that might show up on the DVD when it’s released?
Kendrick: I’ve seen a version from a couple of months ago and I think things have changed since then, and I was just like approving the deleted scenes or whatever and I was like, THAT got cut? So there’s going to be a lot of great stuff on the outtakes, which is great, I guess, but I’d rather it was in the movie.
Q: Were there any song numbers that you did that were cut, that you wish weren’t?
Kendrick: No. There’s only one song that got cut, and it was performed by one of the more minor a cappella groups.
Q: After a long day of filming, what’s your routine when you leave the set? What’s best way to get rid of all that caked on makeup?
Kendrick: So much caked on makeup, just caked on. (She says this with mock exasperation). Because I wear a lot of eye makeup in this movie, I would actually go to the trailer after work and our makeup artist had a couple of hot washcloths ready for me, which felt really good to just get in there. But it’s really just the basic stuff: a dermatological cleanser and a washcloth.
Q: With all the dancing you do in this film, did you have to adhere to a strict diet?
Kendrick: Well, sort of. We started out so healthy. We were getting lunch from (organic supermarket) Whole Foods every day and we were dancing three hours a day and I felt really alive. Then, about halfway through the actual shoot, I was just like, “can I please get home and eat raw cookie dough? Please?”
Q: Did you have any say in the wardrobe?
Kendrick: I designed everything I wore. I made it by hand on a sewing machine that I rented. (She laughs.) No. It’s obviously the wardrobe designer’s job, and Sal (Perez) is a really talented guy, so we were respectful of that, but certainly our input was welcome. It’s give and take.
Q: Did you have a specific clique that you were in when you were in school?
Kendrick: (She deadpans.) I was in the Super Mean Girl clique. I was really popular and tall and skinny. No, really, I was in the Drama Geek clique—if that’s even considered a clique. I don’t know if that warrants a name, but yes, I hung out in the auditorium at lunch and stuff, and we were aggressively dorky.
Q: How aware are you that this film is likely to have a large gay following?
Kendrick: It’s pretty exciting. I’m aware. A guy came up to me in Santa Monica (California), and said, “excuse me, did you play Fritzi in (the 2003’s musical) ‘Camp?’ I just wanted you to know that I do a drag version of you?” And I thought that was the most amazing thing I had ever heard. I was like, “I know I’ve made it when somebody does me as a drag queen.”

Ivar Pavasars (University of Latvia)
Concerns about environmental problems within Latvia were central to that Former Soviet Republic’s late 1980s drive to restore its independence. In fact, the environmental “hot spots” that were caused by large-scale Soviet industrialization helped to support Latvians’ political demands and independence aspirations. Environmental NGOs were among the first elements of Latvia’s democratically based civil society that emerged during this period.
Following the collapse of many of the inefficient Soviet industries during the early 1990s, Latvia successively introduced EU environmental policies and norms into its legislation, and this legislation largely reflects the experiences and policies of the West’s democratically governed industrialized societies. Today global NGOs, such as the WWF, are active in Latvia with global environmental issues on their agenda. A broader type of western global environmentalism has replaced the environmentalism that was practiced years earlier by Latvia’s grassroots based independence movement.
However, case studies of different environmental planning procedures as well as interviews in the countryside indicate that the environmental aspects prioritized by official environmental policies (or global environmentalism) are not those of concern to local Latvian public. This parallels the overall environmental situation as being considerably more natural with less negative impacts as compared to industrially developed countries.
In such circumstances environmental planning procedures in Latvia do not reach the aims originally intended by these procedures. Interestingly, similar to the independence movement years, environmental arguments today are often used to achieve goals other than explicitly environmental ones. As such, a more critical and adaptive approach is required towards EU and global environmental policies, especially when introducing such policies locally.

Union Minister VK Singh took a swipe at the opposition over the Balakot air strike loss of life depend.
Union Minister VK Singh this present day said those elevating questions about the Balakot strike “ought to be tied to the airplane and introduced alongside the following time”, doubling down after a tweet wherein he aged a “mosquito-killing” metaphor to purpose opposition parties.
“Next time when India does one thing treasure that, I feel that those who elevate questions ought to be tied under the airplane and introduced alongside. When the bombs are dropped, they’ll look the targets and after that they’ll gain off, depend the casualties and attain encourage,” VK Singh urged news agency ANI.
In his tweet this morning, the Union Minister had written: “Final evening at 3.30 am there were too many mosquitoes, so I aged HIT (repellant). Now will own to restful I initiate counting what number of mosquitoes I killed or will own to restful I lunge encourage to sleep?” Even though there develop to be once no point out of the February 26 Indian Air Force strike on a Jaish-e-Mohammed camp in Pakistan, the inference develop to be once not misplaced on somebody.
Explaining his tweet, VK Singh said: “Attain you depend issues? Bombs were exploded, constructions were hit and will of us not be killed after an explosion of a 1000-kg bomb? If killed, then you compose an estimate of preference of of us killed. I impression not know who wishes to depend it. It’s unlucky.”
The day long gone by,Haryana minister Anil Vij, had made identical feedbackin his tweet: “The next there is a strike on Pakistan-basically basically based entirely terrorists, then one in allmahagathbandhan(opposition mammoth alliance) leaders ought to be made to face there so as that they’ll depend the bodies.”
The opposition has been prodding the authorities to spell out an legitimate loss of life depend within the Balakot strike amid world media reviews – many quoting Pakistani locals – questioning the impression of the IAF operation.
On Tuesday,Defence Minister Nirmala Sitharaman refused to substantiate a casualty figure. “The foreign secretary gave the commentary; that is the figure,” she said, referring to the briefing by Vijay Gokhale the day the air strikes took build.
The International Secretary had not given any figure both; he had said a “very immense quantity” of Jaish terrorists, trainers, senior commanders and groups of jihadis being educated for suicide attacks in India were eradicated when IAF jets bombed the finest working towards facility of the phobia neighborhood liable for the February 14 attack in Kashmir’s Pulwama wherein over 40 squaddies were killed.
Home Minister Rajnath Singh came closest to validating an unofficial figure of “300” circulating on the day of the strike. He said the Congress develop to be once not willing to gather an review by the Nationwide Technical Study Organisation that said some 300 cellphones were packed with life at the Jaish-e-Mohammed camp sooner than the Air Force’s Mirage 2000 fighter jets bombed it.
Whereas the authorities has not given any figure, BJP president Amit Shah claimed at a political rally that over250 terrorists were killed,provoking opposition digs. VK Singh had said it develop to be once not a confirmed figure however an estimate.

Isuzu D-Max V-Cross facelift spotted testing in India
Spy images have surfaced of the facelifted Isuzu D-Max V-Cross. The updated pick-up truck was recently launched in Thailand and now preparations seem to have begun for an India launch.
As seen on the Thai car, the new V-Cross will get updated detailing in the headlamps, along with L-shaped DRLs. The grille is also expected to be new, finished in contrasting dull grey plastic. The front bumper will also be new as will be the fog lamp housings. The B-pillar has now been blacked out too. There might not be too many changes to the interior except for possible a few feature additions.
It remains to be seen if Isuzu decides to bring in the more powerful 3.0-litre turbo diesel that powers the Thai-spec truck with this facelift. This motor puts out 177PS/380 Nm. The current 2.5-litre turbo diesel puts out 136PS/320Nm. A five-speed manual and switchable 4WD system complete the package.
The Isuzu D-Max V-Cross has become popular as a lifestyle vehicle and also among off-road enthusiasts. Its presence as a support and some even as competition cars across various off-roading events in the country vouches for this.

Seven Tyrants Theatre’s Beggar’s Opera returns to Vancouver for 10 performances this March, beginning tonight (March 4).
The updated version of John Gay’s 1728 ballad opera The Beggar’s Opera brings the classic story into the modern day, with visual effects and a new score drawing from contemporary musical influences. But don’t worry, the iconic “Mack the Knife” – written for Bertolt Brecht and Kurt Weill’s 1928 take on the story, The Threepenny Opera – remains.
Seven Tyrants premiered their updated version of Gay’s script last year at Performance Works on Granville Island, where it was well-received.
In David Newham’s adaptation, the show is divided into ten vignettes rather than the three acts of the original. Daniel Deorksen contributes an original musical score that draws on a range of styles, from jazz to the avant-rock of Frank Zappa and the underworld ethos of Tom Waits, with a little bit of The Muppets thrown in for good measure.
Deorksen performs the score live with violinist Phyllis Ho and the cast of 15 performers. The musical numbers have been choreographed by Catherine Burnett with nods to choreographers Jerome Robbins and Pina Bausch, with perhaps some Monty Python sprinkled on top for a lighter touch.
Much of the original cast remains, including Tallulah Winkelman as Polly, Linden Banks as Mr. Peachum, Kayla Deorksen as Lucy and Gord Myren as Lockit the Warden, with new members including Cameron Anderson as Macheath, the opera’s anti-hero.
Beggar’s Opera runs March 4-14 at Jericho Arts Centre (1675 Discovery St.). Evening shows are Tuesday – Sunday at 8 p.m.
Tuesday performances are $20. Wed-Sun shows are $29.
The Sunday March 9 performance is 2-for-1 at the door (based on available seating). Students can save $5 at the door (with valid Student ID).
Advanced tickets available at TicketsTonight (1-877-840-0457).

Scream, faint. Repeat three times.
Part of the fun of watching these "someone freaks out on an amusement park ride" videos is guessing who it's going to be at the beginning of the clip. Through the first fifteen seconds of this one, it looks like it could go either way, because neither kid seems terribly happy to be there. But once the ride takes off, it becomes clear which one of the two is not cut out to handle the Sling Shot. Hell, judging by how much screaming he does in between fainting three separate times, I'm not sure he'd be able to handle a ride in a glass elevator.


text: At the present rate of decline in the recording of bobwhites on the Breeding Bird Survey (BBS)* they will in theory no longer be recorded within 10 years. Some are even talking about the possibility that they may end up on the endangered species list. They are not likly to go extinct but will only be found in small isolated pockets where they are actively managed for hunting. Primary reasons for their decline are the growth in large farms, cleaning farming, and development. Rabbits as well as other non-game birds use similiar habitat as the bobwhite and these species are also suffering declines. Captive rearing of quail for release is not an option at all. They have a 90% mortality rate within 2 days!!! It will be a sad day if our grandchildren have to go to a zoo to hear and see a bobwhite quail. * During the 1960s, Chandler Robbins and his associates at the Migratory Bird Population Station (now the Patuxent Environmental Science Center) in Laurel, Maryland developed the concept of a continental monitoring program for all breeding birds. The roadside survey methodology was field tested during 1965, and the North American Breeding Bird Survey (BBS) was formally launched in 1966 when approximately 600 surveys were conducted in the U.S. and Canada east of the Mississippi River. The survey spread to the Great Plains states and prairie provinces in 1967. By 1968, approximately 2000 routes were established across southern Canada and the contiguous 48 states, with more than 1000 routes surveyed annually. The BBS continued to grow as more birders became aware of the program. During the 1980s, the BBS expanded into the Yukon and Northwest Territories of Canada, and Alaska. Additional routes have been added in a number of states. Today there are approximately 3700 active BBS routes across the continental U.S. and Canada, of which nearly 2900 are surveyed annually. Breeding Bird Surveys are conducted during the peak of the nesting season, primarily in June, although surveys in desert regions and some southern states, (where the breeding season begins earlier), are conducted in May. Each route is 24.5 miles long, with a total of fifty stops located at 0.5 mile intervals along the route. A three-minute point count is conducted at each stop, during which the observer records all birds heard or seen within 0.25 mile of the stop. The BBS was designed to provide a continent-wide perspective of population change. Routes are randomly located in order to sample habitats that are representative of the entire region. Other requirements such as consistent methodology and observer expertise, visiting the same stops each year, and conducting surveys under suitable weather conditions are necessary to produce comparable data over time. A large sample size, (number of routes), is needed to average local variations and reduce the effects of sampling error, (variation in counts attributable to both sampling technique and real variation in trends). The density of BBS routes varies considerably across the continent, reflecting regional densities of skilled birders. The greatest densities are in the New England and Mid-Atlantic states, while densities are lower elsewhere. See map of route locations across North America. Data are recorded at each stop, and then totaled over the entire 50 stop route. Once the data are recorded in the field, it is sent to the BBS office at Patuxent where it is computerized.

In the intricate landscape of healthcare, successful claims management stands as a cornerstone of effective Revenue Cycle Management (RCM). For healthcare providers, including physical therapy clinics, the ability to maximize reimbursements through strategic claims management can significantly impact their financial health and overall sustainability. In this blog post, we will delve into key strategies that physical therapy clinics can adopt to enhance their claims management processes, ensuring timely and accurate reimbursements that support their mission of providing exceptional patient care.
The Physical Therapy Reimbursement Landscape & Claims Management
Claims management involves the entire lifecycle of submitting, processing, and tracking reimbursement claims for the services provided by healthcare providers. In the context of physical therapy clinics, claims management encompasses a series of steps that require meticulous attention to detail and adherence to industry regulations.
The Complexity of Claims
The claims process in the healthcare sector is complex, involving various stakeholders such as providers, insurance companies, and patients. Accuracy, compliance, and efficient communication are pivotal to ensure that claims are processed smoothly, leading to timely reimbursements.
Strategies for Successful Claims Management
To maximize reimbursements and streamline claims management, physical therapy clinics can adopt a range of strategies that optimize their processes and enhance revenue generation.
Accurate documentation is the foundation of successful claims management. Clinicians should ensure that patient encounters are thoroughly documented, capturing details such as diagnosis, treatment plans, procedures performed, and progress notes. Comprehensive documentation supports the accurate coding and billing of services.
Real-Time Data Entry
Timely data entry significantly impacts claims processing. Integrating electronic health records (EHR) systems and billing software enables the seamless transmission of patient data to the billing department, reducing the risk of errors and minimizing delays in claims submission.
Coding accuracy is pivotal in claims management. Physical therapy clinics should meticulously match services provided with the appropriate billing codes. This includes selecting the correct codes for therapy procedures, evaluations, and interventions, while adhering to industry guidelines.
Claims Scrubbing and Review
Claims scrubbing involves an automated process that identifies errors or discrepancies in claims before they are submitted. Regular claims review and scrubbing minimize the chances of claims being rejected or denied due to coding errors, missing information, or inaccuracies.
Verification of Insurance Coverage
Prior to providing services, physical therapy clinics should verify patients’ insurance coverage. This helps clinics ensure that the treatments provided are covered by the patient’s insurance plan and reduces the risk of claims being denied based on coverage issues.
Efficient Denial Management: Overcoming Denials
Claim denials can be a significant hurdle in the claims management process. Efficient denial management strategies enable clinics to address denials promptly and prevent revenue loss.
Root Cause Analysis
When claims are denied, conducting a thorough root cause analysis helps clinics identify the underlying issues. Whether it’s coding errors, documentation discrepancies, or administrative oversights, addressing the root causes prevents similar denials in the future.
Denial Tracking and Analytics
Leveraging technology for denial tracking and analytics provides insights into recurring denial patterns. Identifying trends enables clinics to develop targeted strategies to prevent similar denials and enhance their claims management process.
Strengthening Collaborative Communication
Effective communication among all stakeholders is pivotal for successful claims management. Collaborative efforts streamline the claims process and minimize misunderstandings.
Collaboration between clinical and administrative teams is crucial. Clinicians should communicate essential details about patient encounters to the billing team, ensuring accurate coding and billing.
Communication with Payers
Establishing open lines of communication with insurance companies enhances claims processing. Inquiries, appeals, and clarifications can be addressed promptly, reducing delays and the likelihood of denials.
Summarizing Strategies for Effective Physical Therapy Reimbursements
In the intricate realm of healthcare, claims management stands as a linchpin of successful Revenue Cycle Management for physical therapy clinics. Through accurate documentation, meticulous coding, efficient claims scrubbing, denial management, and collaborative communication, clinics can unlock their revenue potential and maximize reimbursements. By adopting these strategies, physical therapy clinics not only bolster their financial health but also ensure that they can continue to provide exceptional patient care, supporting the overall well-being of their patients and their practice.

报告题目：Trustworthy Data Collection for Cyber Systems and Applications
报告人：Md Zakirul Alam Bhuiyan 教授
报告简介: Businesses, governments, and individuals depend more and more on the data security and privacy protection in cyber systems. As data collection becomes broader and easier through automated data collection, sensors, and the IoT, protecting the data is becoming more of a focus. The concept of “big data” just increases the focus. Many of the current contributions focus on maintaining data security and privacy in the processing, storage, transmission, and decision-making. However, there can be a question, what would be the situation if low-quality, untrustworthy, meaningless, or undependable data are collected at the time of acquisition, and we apply various strong security protocols to process, store, and transmit the data and make decisions for various cyber system and applications. Also, what would be the situation when assuming that existing privacy-preserving protocols for communication and decision-making seem to be effective, however, if the data being protected by these protocols is itself suspect due to attacks on the privacy at the data gathering process. In this talk, I will highlight these situations and show how untrustworthy concerns may appear during the data collection. I will then discuss challenges and potential solutions for the trustworthy data collection.

CENTRAL -- There’s nothing imaginary about the fine line Denham Springs High coach Mark Carroll talks about when it comes to winning and losing games in the ultra-competitive District 4-5A race.
Two days after allowing two unearned runs and losing to league-leading Zachary on a bases-loaded hit batter in the bottom of the 7th inning, the Yellow Jackets were stifled offensively.
The defensive lapses – three of which contributed to three unearned runs in the loss to Zachary – reared their ugly head once again Saturday against rival Central, but Denham managed only three hits and none in the final 3 innings of a 5-1 setback.
“We had one of those hit-them-right-at-you games,” Carroll said. “We just didn’t get in and compete real good at the plate. We made a lot more solid contact swings against Zachary’s guys (in Thursday’s 4-3 loss).”
DSHS (17-11-1, 3-5 4-5A) managed three singles against Central right-hander Grant Mayers, but none after Layne Didier’s 4th-inning single to right field.
The Yellow Jackets, who opened with a 1-0 lead in the 1st inning on Braden Doughty’s RBI groundout, had four base runners the remainder of the game after their first at-bat with Cam Debate (in 3rd), Dawson Albin (in 4th) and Cade Doughty (in 5th) left stranded.
Central coach Mike Forbes complimented Mayers for his ability to get out of innings relatively quickly, enabling him to finish his complete-game effort in 106 pitches.
A prime example of that was Denham never extending Mayers behind six pitches in any one plate appearance. The Jackets also had 13 at bats that required three pitches or fewer.
The final two base runners for DSHS – Debate and Cade Doughty – reached on an error and fielder’s choice, respectively, in the 5th inning. Mayers retired the Jackets in order in both the 6th and 7th on three groundouts and three fly balls.
The first of Denham’s three errors led to an unearned run when Andrew Harris singled sharply to right field with two outs. That brought in Cade Kimbrell, but on the same play shortstop Cade Doughty wasn’t able to handle the relay throw into the infield, enabling courtesy runner Shamar Henry to score as well.
“We’ve been working on the throws and the relays and did a great job at practice (Friday) and come out (Saturday) and don’t execute,” Carroll said. “If we execute (Saturday), the guy’s thrown out at the plate by a mile.
“We just have to handle the ball. That’s the stuff we have to make the plays on. That’s all on us. We’ll keep working on that and hopefully it will click in at some point. As long as our pitchers are giving chances to win, I’ll take that right now.”
Central took a 3-1 lead in the 3rd inning against starting pitcher Brock Batty, loading the bases with one out after center fielder Cole Montgomery came within an eyelash of a spectacular catch on what would have been the second out.
Instead, Carson Balthazar drove in unearned run on a groundout.
“Brock had a good enough game to give us a chance to win,” Carroll said. “We’ve got to cut out some of the mistakes, a lot of the stuff we’ve been working on in practice and don’t get out here and execute. That’s the frustrating part.”
Batty ran into trouble in the 4th inning, sandwiching a bloop single around two hit batters, to load the bases with one out.
Cade Doughty followed with a highlight-reel play, coming up with Joseph Schopp’s grounder up the middle to get a force at second, but his throw on the double-play attempt to end the inning was wide and allowed a second run to score on the play.
Batty yielded four hits, five runs (two earned), two walks and struck out eight in a 98-pitch outing.
“Brock threw well enough with eight punch-outs if we could have made a couple of plays behind him,” said Carroll, whose team hosts Walker at 6:30 p.m. Tuesday. “That’s the kind of stuff we have to keep working on and clean up. We’ll get there. We’ve just got to hurry up and get there.”

Lung cancer is cancer that starts in the lungs.
The lungs are located in the chest. When you breathe, air goes through your nose, down your windpipe (trachea), and into the lungs, where it flows through tubes called bronchi. Most lung cancer begins in the cells that line these tubes.
There are two main types of lung cancer:
If the lung cancer is made up of both types, it is called mixed small cell/large cell cancer.
If the cancer started somewhere else in the body and spreads to the lungs, it is called metastatic cancer to the lung.

With the release of Helldivers 2, players were excited to embark on cooperative missions in the battle for Super Earth. However, many players have been encountering matchmaking issues that prevent them from joining lobbies. While the developers are actively working on a fix, there are some tactics you can try to get back into the action.
How to Fix Matchmaking Issues
Before we delve into potential solutions, it’s important to note that these are workarounds and not official remedies. The developers, Arrowhead, are aware of the problems and are working to address them. However, if you’re eager to resume blasting bugs with your comrades, here are some methods that players have found success with.
First, you can attempt to turn off Crossplay. Helldivers 2 is available on PlayStation 5 and PC, with Crossplay enabled by default. Some players have reported that turning off Crossplay in the game settings, restarting the game, and attempting matchmaking again has allowed them to find matches.
Another option is to try spamming the Quick Play option. While not the most elegant solution, some players have discovered that repeatedly selecting Quick Play can eventually bypass the matchmaking error and allow them to join a game.
A Reddit user has also suggested an unconventional fix. They recommend entering a game, deploying an SOS beacon, and then quitting the match. After returning to your ship, you may have better luck joining up with other players.
These methods may not be ideal, but they are the best options available for now. If you’re frustrated with constant matchmaking failures, give these workarounds a try. However, keep in mind that a patch from the developers will provide a more permanent solution.
Q: Are there any official fixes for Helldivers 2 matchmaking issues?
A: The developers, Arrowhead, are aware of the problems and are actively working on a fix. In the meantime, players have found success with workarounds such as turning off Crossplay, spamming the Quick Play option, or deploying an SOS beacon in a game and then quitting.
Q: How can I turn off Crossplay in Helldivers 2?
A: To turn off Crossplay, access the game settings and disable the Crossplay option. This can help resolve matchmaking issues for some players.
Q: Will there be a patch to address the matchmaking problems in Helldivers 2?
A: Yes, the developers are working on a patch to fix the matchmaking issues in Helldivers 2. Keep an eye out for updates from Arrowhead regarding the release of the patch.
While Helldivers 2 has encountered matchmaking issues, there are workarounds that players have found success with. By turning off Crossplay, spamming the Quick Play option, or deploying an SOS beacon in a game, you may be able to join lobbies and continue your cooperative missions. Remember that these are temporary solutions, and the developers are actively working on an official fix. Stay tuned for updates and patches from Arrowhead to ensure a smoother matchmaking experience in the future.

Corrosion can cause damage to various products across several industries. So, to prevent corrosion, manufacturers do salt spray tests(also called corrosion tests) for their products. Corrosion tests play an important role in metal, automotive industries, etc. If the products are corrosive then they may be damaged and as a result, it affects the reputation of the company.
For testing the corrosion on various products, a test is performed which is termed a salt spray test(salt spray fog test). Salt spray testing is conducted with the help of a machine commonly known as a salt spray test machine.
A salt spray testing chamber creates a controlled environment to test the coatings of materials for corrosion resistance. As you know a salt spray fog chamber is used for testing corrosion on different materials. It is used to test whether the products are corrosion-resistant or not. Now, the question arises of how to conduct a salt spray corrosion test.
Salt spray testing, also known as salt spray fog testing, is a widely accepted method for evaluating the corrosion resistance of materials and coatings. This testing process involves subjecting the test samples to a controlled salt fog environment, replicating the harsh conditions that metal parts may encounter in real-world scenarios.
By subjecting materials and coatings to salt fog testing, manufacturers can assess their performance, identify potential weaknesses, and make necessary improvements. This helps ensure that the final products meet the required quality standards and can withstand the challenges posed by salt spray corrosion.
Don’t worry, we have got an answer for you.
In this blog, we’ll dive into the details of a salt spray test chamber. We will let you know; how to conduct a salt spray corrosion test.
So, let’s start.
Before conducting a salt spray test, you must create a controlled environment for simulating the effect of saltwater on the specific material.
The following steps are involved in conducting a salt spray test:
Setting a salt spray chamber: First set a salt spray chamber at a constant temperature. Pick up the sample and place it inside the chamber.
Preparation of salt solution: Mix water in the salt to create a solution. The concentration depends on the specific requirements of the test.
Spray the samples: Spray the salt solution on samples with the help of a nozzle. Specifications of the test describe the frequency and duration of spraying.
Monitoring of samples: Check the samples regularly if it has any signs of corrosion. If it has signs then document the results.
Evaluation of results: The last step in the conductance of a salt spray corrosive test is the evaluation of results. Remove the test samples after the test duration. Check whether it has any damage or corrosion. Evaluate the results according to specified standards and requirements.
This is all the procedure for conducting a salt spray corrosion test. But this is the general procedure, it may change a little bit due to specific requirements and standards. Because the tests vary according to the specific requirements of industries.
In conclusion, we will say that corrosion can cause damage to the products as a result it affects the reputation of a company. So, to prevent corrosion, several industries test corrosion on their products which is done by testing the products with a piece of equipment generally known as a Salt Spray Cabinet.
In the above paragraphs, you can see the details of a salt spray fog chamber and its working procedure. We have to give details on how to conduct salt spray fog testing. If you have further questions regarding the salt spray testing then feel free to contact us. We are always here to assist you.


Detailed showcase of picking up a brand new 2018 Deep Blue Metallic Tesla Model 3 Performance Dual Motor
In recent months, it has become evident that Tesla enthusiasts and fans are exerting the same fanatical belief in the company's products as Apple fans did throughout the last 11 years. With every new Tesla model comes an unimaginable hype. We're seeing similar snakes around the block, comprised of people that await not just to buy their cars, but also just to witness them first hand. For many, taking delivery of a brand new Tesla makes for an amazing life event.
This week, the crew from JR Garage took delivery of their brand new 2018 Tesla Model 3 Performance Dual Motor. Talking about their new car, JR pretty much sums their affection to Tesla by calling them "Tesla nuts." That's how far their love for the brand goes. This is actually the third Tesla to join their collection, following a Model X P90D with ludicrous mode and a 2018 Tesla Model 3 rear-wheel drive.
The Model 3 Performance comes with two electric motors. It's capable of accelerating from 0-60mph (0-97km/h) in just 3.5 seconds (or less, according to some recent tests). Furthermore, the Model 3 will reach a top speed of 155mph (250km/h). Its range, as touted by Tesla's official spec sheet is 310 miles (500 kilometers) on a single charge.
Consequently, taking delivery of their Deep Blue Metallic Model 3, equipped with the performance brakes, performance upgrades, performance pedals, a carbon fiber spoiler, an enhanced autopilot and a pristine white interior, certainly made for an exciting event.
JR Garage taped the entire event, giving us the whole experience in one video. Above, you'll be able to check out the entire timeline of picking up their 2018 Model 3, from picking up the car, their initial reactions, and driving impressions, followed by an overall review.

Candida Höfer: Bologna Series
Text by Ludovico Pratesi, Filippo Maggia.
German photographer Candida Höfer makes large-format photographs of empty interiors and social spaces that capture the "psychology of social architecture." In this small volume, her photographs of libraries maintain their monumental feel. They are sober and restrained, disturbed by neither visitors nor users, though Höfer forgoes any staging of the locations. As Michael Kimmelman writes in The New York Times, "Ms. Höfer is a straight photographer whose humanity and improvisatory spirit come across if we are patient enough to appreciate the serendipity of her light, the subtlety of her color and the quiet, melancholy pleasure she seems to take in finding, as if almost by chance, poetry in institutional form."
Born in 1944, German photographer Candida Höfer is a former student of Bernd and Hilla Becher's at the Dusseldorf Art Academy. Her work was recently seen at a one-person show at the ICA Philadelphia.

Disability is handled by the Department of Health and Human Services, but under that area are several different programs that can help individuals if they become disabled. These programs offer more than just the standard income a person with a disability in New Hampshire is entitled to.
This program focuses on providing assistance to anyone with mental illnesses, including children. They operate community mental health centers across the state that feature full service clinics, therapy, and more. They also have partner agencies that assist individuals over 18 in recovery and management of their mental disability. These agencies all work towards the main program goal of seamlessly integrating those with mental illnesses in to society.
The Cash for the Disabled program is the part of DHHS that actually supplies supplementary income to those with a disability in New Hampshire. If eligible, the program will support those over 65, those with permanent disability, and those who are blind. The payments are distributed electronically into the individuals bank account and can be used via debit card or check.
This area exists to offer support to those New Hampshire residents who are over the age of 60 or under 60 and have a disability. If an individual qualifies for disability, they may be able to receive meals delivered to their homes, transportation to and from doctor's appointments, and even financial support for assisted living homes. The program also offers legal support and advocacy for those with a disability in New Hampshire.
The family assistance program works to make certain that anyone with a disability in New Hampshire can support their family. They manage the New Hampshire food stamp program, employment and training programs, child care assistance, emergency assistance, and some medical coverage for both adults and children in the family.
For those who must regularly visit the doctor in order to live with their disability, the Medicaid program offers payment for exams, preventative medication, personal care attendants, vision and dental exams, pregnancy and giving birth, and more. In addition to this coverage, a special medical department also exists. This area focuses on the health needs of children with disabilities and adults with major illnesses such as cancer, hemophilia, and cystic fibrosis. It may provide funds for a full time caregiver and long-term medical treatments.

Can you dash dance in Ultimate?
In Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, the dashing mechanics have been altered. In addition to the small window at the start of the initial dash inherited from Brawl and SSB4, a dash dance can be performed in a similar fashion to foxtrots due to the interrupt frame for the initial dash animation being universally earlier.
What is Dash dancing used for?
Dash – dancing is used to make it much more difficult for the opponent to predict the player’s next action. Dash – dancing can also be used in ways to trick the opponent, such as dashing aggressively towards the opponent and then beginning to dash – dance midway.
Can you short hop in melee?
In Melee, short hops are used as part of the SHFFL technique to aid in aerial approaches and pressure. Melee also features the ability to combine short hops with double jump cancels, but it is not nearly as powerful as it is in Super Smash Bros. Short hopping is also used during wavedashing.
Who has the longest Wavedash in Ultimate?
The longest wavedash (Luigi) and the shortest (Peach).
Is Wavedashing a glitch?
“Contrary to some belief, wavedashing is not a glitch, but instead is completely explainable by the physics system in the game, despite being an unintended physics byproduct.”
Is Wavedashing frame perfect?
The super wavedash (sometimes abbreviated as SWD) is a frame – perfect physics exploit in Super Smash Bros. Melee that can only be performed by Samus.
What is a stick flick smash?
The short version is that it changes how much time you have to push the attack button after moving the stick and still get a ” stick flick “, which is what the game calls making the stick motion for a smash attack. Low sensitivity gives you the shortest window, while High gives you the longest.
How do you move fast in Smash Bros Ultimate?
The fast jab is the simplest move. Just stand in place and press A to attack with a single quick hit in the direction you’re facing. Depending on the character, either hold down A or press it three times to get a close-range combo that does high damage but doesn’t send the opponent flying very far.

Just about 4 years ago, I picked up a paint brush for the first time in many, many years. My business was hurting, I was going on two years without a paycheck and I needed to figure something out or else I'd have to let a couple of my employees go. And I just couldn't do that. I wouldn't do that.
I knew I could draw, so I got busy doing these little paintings, like the garlic above. I put them on eBay, for the first time, sold them for around $20 and when I made $100, my motivation kicked in like you wouldn't imagine. I'd work all day, paint every night, and I kept at it for months. When I got enough savings, I tore down my old shed in the backyard and built a place for me to paint. A real studio. The day it was finished, I bought oil paints and started teaching myself - and trust me, it wasn't easy. Little by little, I got the hang of it - and in three months, I had my first, sellable painting ready to put on eBay. That was January of 2004.
The rest of the story is that this is what I do for a living. I paint. I still have my business, still have the same employees and out of necessity, I stepped into a whole new chapter of my life. It is possible.
Often I am asked where to start. We live in the best of times - remember - the internet and computers are the fuel to get you going. Learn all you can and work hard at it every day. It'll happen.

Definition of standard of living in English:
The degree of wealth and material comfort available to a person or community.
- There are a lot of very simplistic statements made about the relative standards of living between the United States and Europe.
- Childcarers deserve a decent standard of living and parents deserve peace of mind and a decent standard of living too.
- You will have to work harder to get the same products, and your standard of living will be harmed.

Pork Records UK
As this CD begins, if I closed my eyes and made believe, I would swear that Zapp had come back to life and was run through a rack mount. The steady bass and computer vocal cinch it. As the CD progresses, you can look forward to precariously looped bass samples along with some seriously wicked-awesome Moog and old-school analog whooshes. This whole CD has a kind of 1970’s players feel that has been drastically reworked for the here-and-now. In the same respect, Sound Burger possesses its fair share of mellow, electro easy-listening. Not quite ambient, not quite drum-n-bass, not quite, well anything… which is good! Actually, if I had to say it sounded like anything, I would say it sounded like a Pork Records release. Pork have slowly come into their own by playing host to an impressive roster of musicians making really cool music for the ’90s and beyond. The best thing about their releases of late is that I don’t think they will sound dated in 3 years, like many current electronic releases will. Always cool, never dull and feeling very fresh, about the only thing missing from Akotcha’s Sound Burger is a bag of chips and a pickle. Highly recommended.

A Higher Purpose
Lead your community in the spiritual fight to establish a culture of life in our nations. Knights and their families will come together in both public and private acts of prayer to promote the protection of life.
The protection of life is a sustained prayer intention of the Church, and in particular of the Knights of Columbus. Knights remain firmly committed to defending the right to life of every human being – from the moment of conception to natural death. To commemorate and bolster this important cause, councils will promote a novena, nine days of sustained prayer, to build up a culture of life in our parishes, homes and wider community.
A council must conduct this required program in the Life category to be eligible to receive the Columbian Award.

Not so good,
This review is from: Rail Map of Europe, 18th (Rail Guides) (Map)
Although this map has the advantage of showing Europe on one page it's my view thatyou are better advised to buy the European Rail Guide book. This not only shows many of the same maps in more detail but also provides background information on all aspects of rail travel country by country.

U.S. companies that generate the most sales from Brazil, Russia, India and China have trailed the S&P 500. Firms taking in at least 20% of revenue from those countries climbed a median 13% this year, according to data compiled by Bloomberg on the 41 companies that disclosed financial data from the so-called BRIC nations.
Yum! Brands Inc., the owner of the KFC and Pizza Hut chains, counts on China for half its sales. The Louisville, Kentucky-based company slid 3% last week and posted a 13% decline in July same-store sales from China as diners remained reluctant to eat chicken amid an outbreak of avian flu.
Mosaic Co., the second-largest North American potash producer, has dropped 24% this year as Russia’s OAO Uralkali abandoned limits on output that underpinned prices and quit a trading venture with Belarus that controlled supplies from the former Soviet Union. Mosaic, based in Plymouth, Minnesota, gets about a third of its revenue from BRICs.
As money shifted away from emerging markets, volatility diminished in U.S. equities. The S&P 500’s 30-day historic movement dropped 29% to 8.75 this year, while the measure for the MSCI measure of 21 developing nations surged 83% to 13.3, data compiled by Bloomberg show.
“Investors are going to go where they’re treated best and right now the U.S. stands out,” Bruce Bittles, chief investment strategist at RW Baird & Co., said by phone from Sarasota, Florida, on Aug. 15. His firm oversees $100 billion. “A lot of bearish sentiment is building in emerging markets. Eventually once it reaches extreme, which I don’t think it has yet, it will provide a strong base for the markets to rally from.”
Cisco Systems Inc., the biggest maker of networking equipment, said last week that it’s cutting about 5% of its workforce amid weaker sales from overseas including China. The company’s ability to meet its long-term growth target of 5% to 7% a year will partly depend on emerging markets, according to Chief Executive Officer John Chambers.
San Jose, California-based Cisco generates about 42% of revenue outside the U.S. and Canada. The stock tumbled 6.8% last week, the most since May 2012.
“The changes in macroeconomic conditions in the emerging markets, both positive and negative, are driving more inconsistent growth,” Chambers said on an Aug. 14 conference call. “We need some consistency there. We’re not seeing it.”
Capital is fleeing developing nations as China’s economy grows at the slowest pace in 13 years, India’s current-account deficit widens to a record, and persistent inflation in Brazil erodes purchasing power. The share losses are a reversal from the past decade, when the countries led gains during a commodity boom and rising consumption from the middle class.

Educational music, a unique and innovative approach in the field of learning, has been making waves in the education system. It is a powerful tool that combines music and education to create a dynamic and engaging learning experience. But what exactly does educational music do? Does it really have an impact on learning and development? In this article, we will explore the impact of educational music on various aspects of learning, including cognitive development, memory retention, and emotional well-being. Join us as we delve into the world of educational music and discover its potential to transform the way we learn.
The Benefits of Educational Music
Enhancing Memory Retention
Music has long been recognized as a powerful tool for enhancing memory retention. Studies have shown that music can help consolidate memories and improve the ability to recall information.
How music affects memory consolidation
When we listen to music, it activates various regions of the brain, including the hippocampus, which is responsible for memory consolidation. Music also stimulates the release of dopamine, a neurotransmitter that plays a key role in learning and memory. This process, known as neural plasticity, allows the brain to form new connections and strengthen existing ones, leading to improved memory retention.
Examples of music used in memory-based learning
Educational music has been used in a variety of contexts to enhance memory retention. For example, students studying foreign languages may use music to help them memorize vocabulary and grammar rules. Similarly, music is often used in history classes to help students remember important dates and events. In addition, music is commonly used in multimedia presentations and advertising to create a memorable experience for the audience.
Research findings on the effectiveness of music in memory retention
Numerous studies have demonstrated the benefits of educational music on memory retention. For instance, a study published in the journal “Psychology of Music” found that students who listened to music while studying had better memory recall compared to those who did not. Another study published in the “Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition” found that listening to music can improve the ability to recall information, particularly when the information is emotionally charged.
Overall, the research suggests that educational music can be a valuable tool for enhancing memory retention. By utilizing music in the learning process, students may be able to better retain and recall information, leading to improved academic performance.
Improving Cognitive Skills
The Relationship between Music and Cognitive Development
Music has been an integral part of human culture for thousands of years, and its impact on cognitive development has been the subject of extensive research. Studies have shown that exposure to music can enhance various cognitive skills, including memory, attention, and language development. This section will explore the relationship between music and cognitive development and how educational music can contribute to these processes.
The Impact of Educational Music on Problem-Solving Abilities
Educational music, in particular, has been found to have a significant impact on problem-solving abilities. By engaging students in musical activities, educational music can help them develop skills such as pattern recognition, critical thinking, and creativity. This section will examine the ways in which educational music can improve problem-solving abilities and how these skills can be applied in other areas of learning.
Studies on the Connection between Music and Critical Thinking Skills
Several studies have investigated the connection between music and critical thinking skills. These studies have shown that exposure to music can enhance various aspects of critical thinking, including analysis, evaluation, and synthesis. This section will explore these findings in more detail and discuss the implications of these studies for educational practice. Overall, the benefits of educational music for cognitive development are substantial, and incorporating music into the classroom can be a valuable tool for enhancing student learning and development.

Expert removalists Melbourne-wide Jake Removals and Storage has released a report detailing the moving trends of clients in Victoria.
Jake Removals and Storage reveals residents of the outer suburbs of Melbourne should brace themselves to see an influx of city dwellers. While the hustle and bustle of inner-city life was previously appealing to young city workers, many are now seeking a slower pace of life in suburbia. As homes are more spacious and typically more affordable in the suburbs, Melbourne’s suburbia will likely see a rise in homeowners who once rented smaller spaces in the CBD or surrounding suburbs.
According to Jake Removals and Storage, Australians are interested in buying second homes further out in more rural areas. After hundreds of days spent inside the same four walls during lockdown, Aussies are itching to have another space of their own to escape to, whether it be on the beach, tucked away in a country town, or in a different state altogether. In Victoria specifically, Melbourne residents have been utilising movers Melbourne-wide in search of wide, open spaces.
Experts are predicting a likely emigration of Australians to other parts of the world upon the opening of international borders. Whether to be closer to overseas family members or to dip their toes back into the world of international travel, Jake Removals and Storage reports that many Australians – and Melburnians especially – have felt cooped up for too long.
Whether moving a few suburbs over or to a completely new city, Melburnians can rely on the experts in removals Melbourne-wide, Jake Removals and Storage. Contact the best cheap removalists Melbourne-wide today.
