AARP has apparently paid a huge price for supporting Obamacare. Sooooo huge that they don’t want to be associated with him anymore. They told Obama, after the Weds night debate, not to mention them anymore, and that they have become a non-partisan organization.
AARP has bled membership over the Obamacare issue, and asking Obama not to invoke their name to defend his policies is their way of dealing with it. It’s been estimated that AARP stood to gain millions from Obamacare implementation in 2014 alone, but this show of ingratitude to the president is evidence that such an estimate is no longer realistic.
AARP to Obama: Don’t mention us again | WashingtonExaminer.com.
One thought on “AARP Divorces Obama!”
They should have been a bit more informed as to who they were endorsing. They sure lost my business and that of some of my friends and family.

Square Enix left Final Fantasy XV fans hanging in the lurch when it scrapped most of the game's DLC, but that doesn't mean you'll be left wondering what happens next. The developer is borrowing a cue from Mass Effect: Andromeda by releasing a novel, The Dawn of the Future, to fill in what's left of the storyline. It promises to pick up where the Episode Ardyn add-on leaves off and will be available in Japan on April 25th, or just a month after Ardyn's March 26th debut.
There are plans to release the novel worldwide, although it's likely to arrive considerably later. In Japan, at least, The Dawn of the Future will also be part of a larger Celebration Box that includes a Blu-ray animated short and an art booklet.
As with Andromeda, this is a consolation prize that won't completely satisfy fans who wanted more gameplay. Square Enix is tying up loose ends in a relatively low-cost way that frees up the development team for other projects. It beats having to wonder what happened next, though, and that's a feeling some gamers know all too well.

Federal prosecutors want longtime Donald Trump advisor Roger Stone to serve seven to nine years in prison in a sentencing memo released on Monday.
In November of 2019, Stone was convicted on seven charges of obstruction of justice, making false statements and witness tampering. Prosecutors asked the judge to immediately jail the Republican consultant, but Judge Amy Berman Jackson allowed him to remain on bail until sentencing.
"Roger Stone obstructed Congress' investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 election, lied under oath, and tampered with a witness. And when his crimes were revealed by the indictment in this case, he displayed contempt for this Court and the rule of law. For that, he should be punished in accord with the advisory Guidelines," prosecutors wrote.
The official recommendation is for 87 months to 108 months in prison.

These ruins offer a great opportunity for exploration as many interesting castle architectural features are exposed. There are vaulted ceilings, fireplaces, spiral staircases, crenallations, and sculpted panels that are readily accesible. I enjoyed roaming around this castle because it offered a nice contrast to Edinburgh castle in that you could get more of a feel for how castles were constructed both as defensive fortificaiton and living quarters.

MiCommunity grant money funds a new Petanque court at Wetherfsield
After the Tour de France the french theme continues in Wethersfield!
In response to a request from many within the community to resurrect the sport, the DFPFA has recently co-ordinated the construction of a Petanque playing surface at Wethersfield Playing Field. The court's construction was financed by a Braintree District Council MiCommunity grant and was built to a size (12m x 15m) to cater for tournament sized events which frequently have two or three matches taking place simultaneously.
Neighbouring communities have also indicated an interest in making use of the facility and so we can expect some busy weekends ahead especially during the summer months.
Should anyone wish to get involved in the more organised competitive form of the game they should contact Terry Whiting (01371 850293) who will be happy to provide more information on a future programme of activity.
The area is of course open to any groups, small or large, who wish to play the game on a more informal basis so dust off those boules and check it out!

Beal scores 30 as Wizards beat Knicks, 114-96
In Washington’s final game before the All-Star break, the Wizards (20-33) notched a 114-96 win over the Knicks (17-38) Wednesday night at Madison Square Garden. The win gives the team its first sweep of a back-to-back and concludes a 5-2 stretch to close the unofficial first half of the season.
Bradley Beal scored a game-high 30 points, his 12th consecutive game with 25-plus points, the longest active streak in the league and longest such streak by a Washington player since Walt Bellamy in 1964. The game was Beal’s 23rd 30-point game of the season – only four players in the league have more 30-point games this season.
“We knew it was going to be a tough game,” Wizards head coach Scott Brooks said postgame. “We played last night, got in late. The Knicks have been playing really well. We knew we wanted to keep improving and taking advantage of opportunities. Our guys responded.”
Both teams struggled from the field to start, combining to shoot just 2-12 in the opening minutes. Beal and Isaac Bonga hit jumpers on consecutive possessions to snap the scoring drought on the Wizards’ end. Washington shot just 2-9 (.222) from deep in the opening quarter, including 0-3 from Beal, but led by one after 12 minutes.
Washington led for most of the second quarter, thanks in part to the Knicks going 0-6 from 3-point range, but New York closed the half on a 10-0 run and took a four-point lead in the break.
Thirty seconds into the third quarter with the Wizards down six, Hachimura opened Washington’s second half scoring, hitting a tricky pull-up jumper from the elbow. Ish Smith did the same on the following possession. Then, after a steal and full-court pass from Bonga, Hachimura converted, through a foul, on a layup to tie the game at 52. The Wizards took the lead on the next possession and held onto it for all but 30 seconds of the remaining 10:08 of the third quarter.
Beal scored 10 of his 30 points in a span of 6:52 in the fourth quarter, shooting 3-4 (.750) from the field and 2-2 (1.000) from deep. As a team, Washington shot 10-14 (.714) in the fourth quarter and used a 31-14 run over seven minutes. That run coincided almost entirely with Beal’s fourth quarter shift, building the lead up to 20.
“We’re in a good spot,” Beal said. “I wish we could have had a few more (games) before the break. We lost two that I feel we could have won, but for the most part we are in a good position. We can make a lot of noise coming out of the break, we set ourselves up, so we have to come back next Wednesday ready to go.”
Julius Randle, who scored 30-plus points in each of the teams’ two prior meeting this season, led the way for New York with 21 points and 13 rebounds.
Davis Bertans scored 16 points and shot 2-6 (.333) from three. Bertans has now hit multiple 3-pointers in 15 of the 16 games since retuning from injury on January 10.
This Wizards won’t play again until next Friday, February 21 at 7:00 P.M., hosting the Cavaliers (14-40) at Capital One Arena. This weekend at NBA All-Star, Rui Hachimura and Moritz Wagner will participate in Friday night’s Rising Stars Challenge and Davis Bertans will participate in Saturday night’s 3-point Shootout.

Four people were arrested on Thursday in connection with the theft and transfer of the gun used in the killing of Clay County Detective David White in February 2012.
White was shot and killed while investigating a possible methamphetamine production at convicted felon Ted Tilley’s residence on Alligator Boulevard in Middleburg, according to a news release.
Another detective, Matthew Hanlin, was also shot in his upper left arm, but survived, according to the Gainesville Sun.
Investigators discovered the firearm used to kill White was stolen in Jacksonville in May 2011. The Florida Department of Law Enforcement and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms found the weapon was stolen by Robert Apple II, 22, of Orange Park, and then passed through the hands of three people who, according to investigators, knew the weapon was stolen.
Police say three men knew the weapon was stolen: Christopher Henderson, 21, and Curtis “Ping” Dingler, 19, both of Middleburg, and Jack Lemond, 36, of Orange Park. They were all arrested.
Lemond ultimately provided the weapon to Tilley, who then used the weapon to fire at detectives White and Hanlin last year, according to a news release.
The four men were booked into Clay County Jail and charged with dealing stolen property.

The controversy involving the possibility of ‘King Khan,’ i.e. Khan, leaving India after Modi’s election win has spread like wildfire across the social media landscape. Many users have claimed that Khan made an earlier promise that he will stop living in India should Modi head the government of this country.
Several supporters of Modi have demanded that Khan issue a formal statement. They insist that the 48-year-old actor should speak out on whether he is going to stick to his promise now that Modi has won the election.
The Reality: Mr Kamaal Khan is known for his controversial statements. Some days ago, he tweeted: ‘It’s my challenge to entire world that if Modi ji will become next PM, then I will leave not only Twitter but India also forever.’ The pathetic part is, some illiterates (or literate hatemongers) could not differentiate the ‘S’ from the ‘K’ and thus began a series of unethical, untrue and immoral personal attacks on Mr Shah Rukh Khan.
Shahrukh Khan’s Early Life:
Khan was born on 2 November 1965 in New Delhi, India,[a] and brought up in Mangalore for the first five years of his life. His grandfather served as chief engineer in Mangalore port in the 1960s. His father, Taj Mohammed Khan, an ethnic Pathan, was an Indian independence activist from Peshawar, British India (present-day Pakistan). According to Khan, his paternal grandfather was originally from Afghanistan. His mother, Lateef Fatima, was the adopted daughter of Shah Nawaz Khan, a Major General in the Indian National Army. Shahrukh Khan’s father came to New Delhi from Qissa Khawani Bazaar in Peshawar before the 1947 partition of India. Regarding his origin, Khan described himself on Twitter as “half Hyderabadi (mother), half Pathan (father), some Kashmiri (grandmother)” His father died of cancer when Khan was 15 years old, and his mother died in 1990 after prolonged illness.
Shahrukh Khan: “I sometimes become the inadvertent object of political leaders who choose to make me a symbol of all that they think is wrong and unpatriotic about Muslims in India,” the actor wrote in Outlook Turning Points, published by India’s Outlook magazine in association with the New York Times.
“There have been occasions when I have been accused of bearing allegiance to our neighbouring nation than my own country – this even though I am an Indian whose father fought for the freedom of India.
Rallies have been held where leaders have exhorted me to leave my home and return to what they refer to as my original homeland,” he wrote.
So now you decide for yourself.

“We now have to enhance and change into stronger in defence, which is crucial factor.”
Messi’s strike associate, Luis Suarez, additionally criticised the workforce’s show and mentioned they wanted to rid themselves of their dependence on their all-time high scorer.
“He’s the very best on the earth however we are able to’t depend on Leo to at all times type all the pieces out for us,” Suarez mentioned.

After five years in the works, Soli’s motion-sensing radar is coming to the Google Pixel 4
Among the most revolutionary is Soli, the motion sense radar from Google’s Advanced Technology and Projects Team (ATAP) which has finally made the handset after five years in development. The hardware radar is located at the top of the handset, and works together with a combination of algorithms to recognise gestures and detect users’ presence.
What does this mean? In short, you’ll be able to perform a host of tasks, including snoozing alarms, skipping songs and silencing phone calls just by waving your hand. The feature was teased in an incendiary tweet reading “Look internet, no hands” – in reference to the no-contact means of interaction with which the new generation of smartphone users can operate their phones.
Google is keen to stress that this is just the beginning for Soli’s Motion Sense, which, for all its sophistication is still a nascent technology. “Just as Pixels get better over time,” the company asserts, “Motion Sense will evolve as well”. Motion Sense will not yet be available universally, with the technology rolling out in a select few countries.
Another new addition to the Pixel 4 is its facial scanning tool, which will permit hands-free unlocking. Gone are the days users will have to use a thumbprint or passcode to access their phones; now just by dint of looking at your smartphone, it will unlock for use. While this is hardly a revolutionary feature on smartphones – facial recognition is used as far and wide as the iPhone XS, Huawei Mate 20 Pro and the OnePlus 6T – Google has made the technology far more streamlined.
A far cry from having to hold your phone at a painfully specific angle just to get it to recognise your mug, Soli now proactively turns on face sensors as you pick it up, meaning the recognition – and subsequent unlocking – happen much more seamlessly. Plus, this can occur pretty much any angle: hold your phone upside down and there’s a good chance you’ll be recognised.
If you’re concerned that Google’s services might end up awash with your personal image data as a result, don’t be: Google’s new brand of face unlock technology is processed on your handset, so the data never leaves your device and is therefore not subject to broader hacking risks from Google’s other services.

The announcement by Governors Kathy Hochul (New York), Phil Murphy (New Jersey), and Ned Lamont (Connecticut) concerning an agreement on the sub allocations of federal emergency relief funding apportioned to the NY/North East NJ Urbanized Area by Congress to deal with COVID-19 related losses in transit system ridership and revenues missed something that is not ethical and may not be legal.
Negotiations started in March 2021. After nine months, they finally agreed that $10.85 billion of the funding will be for NY, $2.66 billion will be for NJ, and $474 million will be for Connecticut. Was it coincidence that Governor Murphy waited several days until he was sure he won to go public with this agreement? Had he gone public with this agreement prior to November 2, the election results might have been different.
These funds come from the Corona Response and Relief Supplemental Appropriations Act of 2021 signed into law on December 27, 2020. It allocated $14 billion out of $900 billion for transit and the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 and signed into law on March 11, 2021 to provide $30.5 billion for transit. .
According to Senate Majority Leader Schumer’s spokesperson, Schumer promised Senator Menendez that the MTA would give NJ Transit $75 million after receipt of the first $200 million received from the MTA out of the next round of potential discretionary CARE COVID19 funding from Washington. These funds would come out of a $2.2 billion national competitive discretionary CARE COVID-19 program administered by the Federal Transit Administration.
There is no formula distribution which would guarantee either MTA, NJ Transit or any other transit agency a portion of these funds. Why would the FTA make a grant to the MTA knowing that a portion of these funds would be passed on to NJ Transit? Here is the link for this program…https://www7.fta.dot.gov/regulations-guidance/notices/2021-19397
Distribution of these funds is supposed to be determined by the FTA Administrator based upon a formal review of all grant applications by agency professional staff. They use standard criteria for a level playing field that all applicants must adhere to. The promise by Schumer to Menendez is not ethical and may also not be legal. It is an insult to the FTA professional staff who will review each transit agencies grant application on the justification and merits. Schumer is not the transit “Godfather.” He should not be making federal agencies “an offer you can’t refuse.”

Russian President Vladimir Putin has signed changes to the law on presidential elections, allowing them to be held in the occupied territories of Ukraine.
This information was reported on the legal information portal.
According to the new rules, elections in the occupied territories can take place after consultations with the Central Election Commission, the Ministry of Defense, and the Federal Security Service of Russia. Voting is allowed both throughout the entire territory under martial law and only in its part.
The amendments also relate to the prohibition of campaigning on blocked resources and allowing the representatives of the media working only under an employment contract to attend election commission meetings. Additionally, the document prohibits photo and video shooting at polling stations in military units.
These changes were adopted on the eve of the presidential elections in Russia, scheduled for March 2024. Putin will be running for a new term, and these changes are likely made to ensure his victory.
It’s worth noting that on September 30, 2023, Russian President Vladimir Putin spoke in the Georgievsky Hall of the Kremlin during the ceremony of the so-called “joining” of the temporarily occupied Ukrainian territories of Luhansk, Donetsk, Kherson, and Zaporizhzhia regions after pseudo-referendums were held on them. In his speech, he also called on Kyiv to come to the negotiating table.
On the same day, September 30, Ukraine applied for accelerated NATO membership. NATO Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg stated that the Alliance and its allies do not recognize the “agreements” of Russian President Vladimir Putin on the attempted annexation of Ukrainian territories. He also noted that Ukraine’s NATO membership depends on the agreement of all allies.

Redlands in the Influenza Pandemic of 1918-1919 - Virtual Presentation
Time & Location
About the Event
Redlands In The Influenza Pandemic of 1918-1919
Presented by Ann Cordy Deegan, Ph.D.
Comparisons of the influenza pandemic of 1918-1919 to today’s
Covid-19 pandemic are eerily similar, from anticipation of arrival in Redlands, closures to schools and other venues, to a second wave and efforts at staying safe. Add in the continuing horror of World War I, and the flu pandemic takes on even more stress to those in Redlands over one hundred years ago.
This presentation will look at comparisons to today, unique aspects of the flu pandemic, and personal stories of those in Redlands fighting the flu and those Redlands residents in World War I military camps exposed to it.
Live Stream of the event will be available on the AK Smiley Library Facebook Page: www.facebook.com/AKSmileyPublicLibraryRedlands

Two SOS calls went out from the Tamil Nadu chief minister's residence in Chennai past 10 pm on 22 September. The first one to Apollo hospital, asking for an ambulance to be rushed to Poes Garden immediately. Senior doctors were asked to be on standby for the VIP patient. The second to the top cops asking for traffic to be cleared for the CM's convoy at that late hour.
Within minutes, the ambulance was rushed and the Critical Care Unit (CCU) on the second floor at the hospital was made ready. Security paraphernalia of the Chennai police was rushed to the hospital and the 3 km distance from the CM's home to Apollo hospital on Greams Road was converted into a green corridor. Within 15 minutes, Selvi Jayalalithaa Jayaram, 68, was wheeled directly into the CCU.
She was immediately put on non-invasive treatment, with tests done simultaneously to check different health parameters. Soon word spread that the CM had been hospitalised and by morning, crowds began to swell outside Apollo hospital. A press release on the Apollo hospital letterhead said the CM was suffering from fever and dehydration.
The intention was clear. Information to the public was to be given on a need-to-know basis to ensure panic did not spread in the city and the state.
For a change, Tamil Nadu's political ecosystem behaved with dignity. All Opposition leaders, otherwise at daggers drawn with Jayalalithaa, wished her a speedy recovery. The Prime Minister and the governor also sent her their good wishes.
But outside the hospital, the virtual world was fueling rumours overtime in the real world. The first of them over Friday and Saturday spoke about how she is critical and would be flown off to Singapore for further treatment. Apollo hospital and the Tamil Nadu government denied the rumour the next day. The tone and tenor of the press conference on Sunday in which reporters were not allowed entry, was only to say all is well and under control.
But the feeling that something was amiss and the truth was not being revealed, persisted.
The second floor also houses the general ward and the ICU. The CCU portion where Jayalalithaa was admitted was cordoned off to ensure other patients and their attendants were not put to inconvenience. Three rooms were allotted to the CM's accompanying team, among them Sasikala, her trusted aide. Finance Minister O Panneerselvam, the senior-most Cabinet minister in the ministry too has been camping at the hospital. Dr Shivakumar, who is married into Sasikala's family, is also at hand. Care was taken to ensure mobile phones were not allowed anywhere near the CCU to ensure no pictures of the CM were leaked.
Around the same time, the dates for the local bodies elections in Tamil Nadu were announced. The AIADMK released the first list of candidates for the elections, as if to indicate it is business as usual. No one knows if it had already been cleared by Jayalalithaa before she was admitted.
On Tuesday, after the Supreme court heard the Cauvery case, a government press release announced that the CM chaired a meeting from her hospital room and even dictated her speech to be read out by the PWD minister at the Karnataka-Tamil Nadu meeting with Water Resources Minister Uma Bharathi in Delhi on Thursday. Given what is now known of her condition, the jury is out on whether the CM indeed presided over the meeting.
On Wednesday, the CM's condition deteriorated. "She went down and the medical team had to put her on ventilator to help in breathing and start invasive treatment,'' said the source. Well-known intensivist Richard John Beale, who specialises in cases involving critically ill patients, flew down from London to examine Jayalalithaa. An intel report had been sent to the political leadership of the country in New Delhi as well that Jayalalithaa's health was cause for concern.
It was then that those in Lutyens' Delhi realised that it was not just a case of fever and dehydration but something more serious. In the absence of any confirmation or denial officially from Apollo hospital or the government, conspiracy theories began to gain traction through WhatsApp forwards. The more outrageous the rumour, the more it lent itself to being shared on social media.
The government announced Rs 476 crore as bonus for PSU employees on Wednesday. The AIADMK's second list of candidates for the 17 and 19 October election was also released in the week. While the attempt would have been to convey that the leader is in-charge, doubts persist on who exactly is calling the shots.
In his rather sharp open letter last week, DMK chief M Karunanidhi quoted a report in a Tamil daily to name Sasikala and Sheela Balakrishnan (advisor to the Tamil Nadu CM) as the shadows who are trying to be the real person. Karunanidhi warned against unauthorised people with access to Jayalalithaa trying to run the state by proxy.
The political leadership in Delhi is aware that Jayalalithaa is not completely out of the woods yet, even though since Saturday she has been responding favourably to the treatment. The Apollo hospital said treatment for her infection was on while AIADMK leaders hoped she would be discharged in 2-3 days.
After his visit on Saturday evening, Tamil Nadu's acting Governor Vidyasagar Rao has sent a formal report to the Prime Minister and the Ministry of Home Affairs on Jayalalithaa's health condition and his own impression of the situation in the state. Delhi, sources say, is keeping a close watch and coordinating closely to ensure the systems are in place, even without a functioning head of the government.
The AIADMK has been instructed to keep up with its 'all is well' narrative. Former minister Valarmathi claimed Amma is in fact working from inside the hospital but glared back when asked if she got an opportunity to meet her inside.
CR Saraswathi, AIADMK spokesperson said, "Amma works for 22 out of 24 hours. Even those two hours, she only thinks of people's welfare. We want her to rest for a few days in hospital because she has been working so hard.''

Matt Helmers | Professor in Agricultural and Biosystems Engineering and Extension Agriculture Engineer, Iowa State University
In my last column, I wrote about how we needed to scale up the human resources significantly in order to meet some of the goals of the Iowa Nutrient Reduction Strategy. This month, I would like to assert that it is also critical we continue efforts on new technology development and research on the performance of practices – specifically new practices.
One outlet for developing new ideas is the Iowa-Minnesota Drainage Research Forum. While edge-of-field nitrate reduction practices such as controlled drainage, bioreactors, wetlands, and saturated buffers are now household names, they were first discussed at the Drainage Research Forums when they were just preliminary ideas with some preliminary data. This event serves as an incubator for innovation to help us get feedback about how these practices might work.
The Drainage Research Forum is in its seventeenth year and was held in Ames this year. I have been attending these forums since I stated at Iowa State. The Forum averages around 75 people, mainly engineers and researchers from across the Midwest. Basically, when we present the new idea or practice at this forum, we are asking our colleagues to give us input on whether they think it will work on a larger scale and to see if anyone in the room can point out our flaws or give us another way to approach it. They can be really engaging and important discussions.
You can download most of the past Forum presentations from the Drainage Outlet website through University of Minnesota Extension.
Much of the initial funding for these types of unknown practices were from state agencies and local centers such as the Leopold Center for Sustainable Agriculture. These groups could be nimble and see the need and understand that small initial investments could lead to great outcomes and larger research funding which has happened in almost all cases.
So while we continue working on implementation of the Iowa Nutrient Reduction Strategy and continue with efforts to education farmers and other stakeholders about practices they can use to reduce downstream nutrient loss, we need to continue the behind the scenes efforts to develop new practices for nutrient reduction, conduct research to refine recommendations for practice implementation, and conduct research to enhance the performance of practices.
In order to do this, we need forums like the Drainage Research Forum to help develop the innovation needed to develop practices or different approaches to old ones. Forums that bring together smaller groups of people with initial ideas and data to help them see how that information will work on the land.
The Iowa Learning Farms team likes to tease me about how excited I get to attend the Drainage Research Forum. They are right. It is one of my favorite gatherings. Some or much of that excitement comes from knowing I will get to learn about cutting edge practices, technology or management approaches that are in their early stages. I look forward to hearing what new ideas are discussed at the next seventeen (or more!) Drainage Research Forums. You are welcome to join us in 2018.

Adam Halbridge, Principal Informatics Expert at PRA, is not a cubicle guy. He’s an entrepreneur and creator who’s taken his passion for growing and building businesses and turned it into a career.
When Adam hears people’s excitement about bettering their lives with technology, he gets excited, too. That’s when he starts tinkering and tossing ideas until they stick, clearing an efficient path for everyone to live healthier, fuller lives.
Below, read more about Adam and the insights he shares about our industry.
What’s the biggest challenge you face today in our industry?
My biggest challenge is educating our internal PRA teams in data and innovation—how we position it and how we operationalize it. Secondly, I believe educating our clients should be prioritized over chasing request-for-proposals (RFPs).
Why did you become involved in clinical research?
My interest in healthcare started as a child. I remember racing through labor and delivery with my father the ObGyn in what was then Houston’s budding Medical Center. His partners introduced me to a Baylor program for 4th graders in animal dissection. Next was a NASA astrobiology and research camp and suffice to say, the research die was cast.
As a founding member of PRA’s Mobile Health Platform (MHP), I was fortunate enough to get exposure to mHealth and the new direction of healthcare. Before our MHP even became what it is today, I was searching for fields that could benefit from this new technology. That’s how I came across healthcare as a “blue ocean” of opportunity. It was a few years behind on the technological curve. There were so many areas of medicine untapped by virtual systems. The healthcare industry was years away from that mindset shift. I wanted to be part of that fight. Our fledgling company began working with Qualcomm’s mHealth’s parents, Don Jones, and Scripps Research Institute’s celebrity cardiologist Dr. Eric Topol, and from there, we were fully devoted to the clinical research space.
In your experience, what has been the most important factor that has changed drug development?
Democratization of data. For the first time in history, global efforts are shaping the research landscape, which makes it easier to get drugs to patients.
What is the biggest misconception people have about clinical trials?
From the principal investigator perspective, it’s paperwork. From the patient’s lens, it’s that clinical trials are all about experimental drugs or a last line of hope for therapy. There are many healthy volunteer studies that provide solutions as well.
What advice would you give to the next generation of researchers?
Go deep in a handful of indications and forecast the research landscape for the client. Don’t just be their “arms and legs.” Lead the client to the endpoint they should be addressing. Lead them to the indication(s) where they can help patients.
How has clinical research affected your life personally?
Unfortunately, two of my close family members were diagnosed with cancer in the past two years; Multiple Myeloma and Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer. The silver lining here was that I had the awesome and limitless power of PRA’s data assets. M y amazing MI/Digital Health team helped me navigate each relatives’ patient journey and discover the best regimen of treatment available to them in both commercial and in research and development. It is a privilege to know that the therapy prescribed to a patient is actually the best therapy available for that specific patient. All patients, providers and caregivers should benefit from these resources. Democratize the data!
If you had to describe yourself in three words, which would you choose?
Grateful, entrepreneur, and hungry.
If you think back, at what point could you have chosen a different career path and what would it have been?
My mother, father, and stepfather are all physicians. They encouraged me to go into business, not medicine. They were typical docs, grumbling about insurance companies and how they took over medicine. During my whole childhood, I traced over large beautiful illustrations of a Gray’s Anatomy coffee-table sized book. I also attended multiple summer programs at Baylor and UT for dissection, biology, and even a program at NASA around biology in space.
What’s a fun fact about your childhood?
I received my first patent when I was 12. It was a protective coating that goes on the end of your glasses that’s also flavored. You know how people will chew on the ends of their glasses as a bad habit while waiting or talking? Well, I was protecting the glasses while supporting the bad habit!
If you were to write a self-help book, what would the topic be?
Never, ever give up.

Melbourne wig and headwear specialist, Kirsten says volunteering with Look Good Feel Better has given her a greater connection to her local community.
“I had been looking for some time at volunteering and so I contacted Look Good Feel Better because I believed my expertise with wigs would be a great way to give back to a community that was already a big part of my everyday work.
My first workshop was a bit of a blur, partly because I was helping with make-up and that wasn’t my strong suit! I quickly realised that it was more than just showing someone where and how to apply eye shadow, it was about connecting with women and helping facilitate dialogue with each other. I’m a story-teller by nature so there’s nothing more that I love than to see people sharing their stories!
I love it when I can totally transform a woman’s appearance in seconds with a wig. I watch the expression on her face when she looks in the mirror whilst hearing the other women gasp at the transformation. It gives me a real kick, and then all the other women want to try something on and we just have fun with it.
Volunteering gives you a sense of contribution. So often we lead busy lives where it’s easy to forget why we are running around in the first place. I believe time is one of the most precious things we have, and to give that to help others is vital to our sense of who we are. Volunteering at Look Good Feel Better has taught me that it doesn’t matter where you are from or what you do, we are all here seeking love and peace for ourselves and our loved ones. Life is about making real connections with people and I have made countless connections with other volunteers as well as participants over the years.
In my line of work, I meet a lot of women going through trying circumstances and I always ask them if they have been to a LGFB workshop. I am quick to point out the benefits of meeting other women in a safe environment and enjoying a few hours where they are pampered and treated with kindness- giving them confidence at a time when they may be feeling self-conscious. I believe those few hours can have an enormous impact on the women’s overall well-being during their treatment.
Sometimes during the workshop, the women forget momentarily all that is going on and they are just enjoying the moment. It’s so powerful, it’s palpable and contagious that the whole room is swept up into a time and place where we are all free of our lives outside of that room, it’s such a special feeling!
Our society would be a much better place if we all did some kind of volunteering, to give up your time to help others actually in turn helps your own understanding of what it means to be a part of a community. If you can find an organisation that aligns with your values, you should take the plunge because you will never know how much it will benefit your life until you actually do it.”
Kirsten teamed up with Bupa, on behalf of LGFB, to demonstrate a number of handy headwear tips and tricks. Click here to watch the online tutorial.

You are in the BMW M/M3/M6
What is this discussion about?
BMW M3, Coupe, Convertible
Jan 08, 2009 (2:45 pm)
Perhaps this is of interest?
Engine Electrical Systems
12 04 00
Woodcliff Lake, NJ
Secondary Air System Faults
All models with M52 and S52 engine
All models with M44 engine produced as of 1/97
All models with M62 engine produced as of 9/98
All models with M73 engine
Customer complains that the "Check Engine" lamp is illuminated and the following fault is set in the Engine Control Module (ECM/DME):
M52, S52 Engine:
Fault code 245 (F5 hex) - Secondary air injection, bank 1
Fault Code 246 (F6 hex) - Secondary air injection, bank 2
Fault code 80 - Secondary air injection, bank 1
Fault Code 81 - Secondary air injection, bank 2
M44 & M73 Engine
Fault Code 80 - Secondary air injection system
Failure within the secondary air injection system.
The following diagnostic tips / steps should be followed if the above customer complaint is received:
1. For E36 vehicles equipped with M52 engine prod. 10/95 - 2/96 also refer to S.I. 12 04 96 regarding Recall Campaign No. 96E-A01.
2. Refer to the OBD II training manual for illustrations and explanation of system operation.
3. Perform test modules/component activation of secondary air system located in the "Service Functions" section using DIS/MoDiC.
4. Check operation of secondary air pump using instructions provided in DIS/MoDiC.
5. If pump is not operating correctly check air pump relay. For vehicles with M52 engine a modified relay was introduced into production P/N 12 63 1 742 690.
6. If the relay is operating correctly and the electrical connections/wiring to the pump are OK, check the condition of the pump.
7. If the air pump is seized it must be replaced.
Important note :If the pump is seized as a result of moisture (water in pump), an improperly operating non-return valve is the cause. The non-return valve may stick open and allow exhaust gases to condense within the air pump housing leading to a failure of the pump.
Non-return valve sealing / leakage check:
The non-return valve must be checked as follows any time a seized secondary air pump has been replaced due to moisture.
Disconnect the air pump feed line/hose at the non-return valve (line from the secondary air pump to the non-return valve).
Visually inspect the non-return valve fitting internally for carbon type contamination. (Twisting the corner of a clean shop rag into the valve fitting as shown will assist with this check.)
If no carbon type deposits are found on the rag, this indicates that the non-return valve is sealing correctly and does not need to be replaced.
If carbon type deposits are found on the rag, the non-return valve is not sealing correctly and must be replaced.
Note :A non-return valve which is not sealing correctly will cause damage to the secondary air pump as described above.
8. Check also for cracked vacuum lines going to the non-return valve.
-- For vehicles with M44 engine the vacuum line P/N 11 73 7 501 180 going to the non-return valve has been improved since 11/98.
-- For E46 323i/iA and 328i/iA vehicles produced 4/98 - 7/98 see S.I. number 12 04 98 regarding the vacuum hose to the secondary air non-return valve service action.

there's no doubt bmw is an amazing performance machine combine with comfort in a reasonable price. But I'm starting to wonder if the complain from others that is not as relaible with multiple electrical/mechanical issue is really true
Thanks for the info
if you ever finds any DIY diagram or photos of the air pump or relay, I would appreciated.

Oh some states in the past developed a bad reputation for being very loose with their title requirements, allowing out-of-staters to "launder" salvage titles for real ones.
I really don't know if these loopholes have been corrected or not. I'm just so used to being on alert with titles from New Hampshire and Alabama that I remain on high alert when I come across one.

#205 of 250 2005 bmw m3 problems?
Jan 13, 2009 (9:45 am)
I am thinking about buying a 2005 BMW M3 fully loaded with navigation with 48,100 miles. I was wondering if there are any known reported repair problems with this vehicle? The 2008 Consumer Reports Buying Guide saids it is a used vevicle that should be avoided. It reports transmission, electrical, power and suspension problems, but most of my internet research for the most part does not state anything like this.

Here's a checklist for you:
3 Series Bugaboos
However, with those low miles I wouldn't think too many items on the list would apply, so you may be okay. What I'd do if i were you is download this list of areas of concern and show them to the shop that checks out the car for you, and let them inspect these items.
Some are minor, like valve cover leaks, and some don't apply to the M3, like the oil separator. Others might apply to low mileage, like the BMW power steering hoses, which tend to leak and which cost an outrageous amount of money for some reason.
Anyway, I'm not sure Consumer Reports has much of a handle on BMWs.
#207 of 250 M-Coupe Alignment
Feb 16, 2009 (12:07 pm)
I have 49000 miles on my M-coupe. I have worn out my rear tires twice (byproduct of my right foot) but my front tires are just now coming to the wear bars. I want to get an alignment, but fear not getting the M numbers right. Does anyone know the correct specs for an M-Coupe? Also, I've called the 2 tire shops that I typically send my customers to, and they both told me to see the dealer because of special tools etc. needed to perform the alignment correctly. Is that right?!?!
#208 of 250 Re: M-Coupe Alignment [Olds13]
by MrShift@Edmunds HOST
Feb 17, 2009 (8:33 am)
That doesn't make sense---well I mean indeed there may be special tools, but my experience has been that many many dealers farm out their alignments to specialists anyway. I don't see why a really talented alignment shop can't align just about any vehicle. My tire shop (who specializes in alignment) does Ferraris, Porsches, Bentleys, etc, as well as Hyundais.
A good alignment shop is not necessarily just a tire shop.
#209 of 250 Re: M-Coupe Alignment [Mr_Shiftright]
Feb 19, 2009 (5:43 pm)
BMW's alignment specs assume a certain weight in the passenger seat and the trunk. Some shops won't align them because they don't have any way to put the specified weights in the car. My indie tech uses a little Mom & Pop shop located in the back of an old industrial park. They don't charge much and they do absolutely first rate work.

*hugs* honey I don't think you are crazy but if you hear something so strong going on in your head that makes you feel this bad, then perhaps you need to talk to someone. Have you been going to a therapist?
Thank you! Hugs
I havent been seeing my therapist for awhil, but i see a p-doc every thursday and i have tried music it works a little but not enough..i want to tear all my hair out thats how much it drives me crazy.
I got to my pdoc at 3:30 todat but i dont know if ill be able to tell him. Its hard for me too tell someone in person whats going on, and im always afraid he is going to send me away again
I'm sorry, this sounds terrible. Voices of sorts can come along with mental health issues. When my eating disorders began I developed a voice in my head, like a complete stranger was living in my head. It was what made me starve myself, it had control. Sometimes I still get it but not day and night like before. It's important to tell you doctor before it progresses. Dont let it take control! Take care friend, my heart goes out to you on this one. (HUGS)
Thank you!!! Hugs!
Im kind of scared to tell my doc though, maybe ill come around to it one of these days. Im sorry you have to deal with it to..its so frusterating
I know what you are going through. I am dealing with this exact problem right now. I have never taken medication for it before, and I have tried talk to therapists and I have yet to find something that helps. I actually broke down today into tears because I couldn't make it stop. I'm not sure what to do anymore.
You both need to tell your doctors about it. There's no reason to be afraid to talk to your doctors about it. That's what they are there for--to help you. You may need to go to a psychiatrist. There is most likely a medication that will help you. You both are suffering with it so much. You really should get treatment for it. Give yourselves a better life. Good luck.

Nephrology – Pharmcription
The Department of Nephrology provides services for renal replacement therapy and renal transplantation as well as manages acute and chronic disorders affecting the kidneys.
What is the role of nephrology?
The branch of internal medicine known as nephrology specializes in the identification and management of kidney problems. Because the kidney serves so many important purposes, nephrologists are experts in both the treatment of basic renal problems as well as the systemic effects of kidney disease.
Diseases under the branch of nephrology
The field of nephrology studies both the health and disorders of the kidneys. Nephrology covers the following conditions as diseases:
· abnormalities of the glomerulus, which is a small filtration mechanism in the kidneys.
· Urine anomalies such excessive excretion of blood, protein, crystals, sugar, casts, etc.
· Kidney tubules are affected by tubulointerstitial disorders.
· disorders of the kidney’s blood channel networks are known as renal vascular diseases.
· Acute, chronic, abrupt, or chronic renal failure are all possible.
· bladder and Kidney stones
· Kidney infections
· Cancers of the urethra, kidneys and bladder
· Effects of diseases like high blood pressure and diabetes on kidneys
· Acid base imbalances
· Nephritis and nephrotic syndrome
· effects of toxins and drugs on the kidneys
· Dialysis and its long-term side effects – hemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis both fall under the category of dialysis.
· Autoimmune diseases including lupus, autoimmune vasculitis, etc.
· A congenital, hereditary, or genetic illness known as polycystic kidney disease occurs when large cysts or fluid-filled sacs develop within the kidney, limiting its functionality.
What is nephrology treatment?
Nephrology, often known as renal medicine, is a subspecialty of internal medicine that deals with kidney treatment. It frequently has high blood pressure or hypertension as a connection. Medical specialists known as nephrologists diagnose, treat, and manage acute and chronic renal conditions and disorders.
blood products, Medication, surgical interventions (vascular, urology, or surgical operations), kidney replacement therapy (kidney transplants or dialysis), and plasma exchange are all possible forms of treatment in nephrology.

text: Objectives: Reported estimates of the risk of agranulocytosis associated with metamizol have varied by several orders of magnitude. We assessed this association in a large database for the surveillance of blood dyscrasias. Methods: Since 1980, all laboratory units of haematology in a defined area (3.3-4.1×106 inhabitants) contribute to the ascertainment of all cases of agranulocytosis meeting strict diagnostic criteria. These cases of patients with agranulocytosis and sex-, age-, hospital- and date-matched controls were interviewed using a structured questionnaire about previous drug exposures, and relative risks were calculated for several categories of exposure to metamizol. Results: After a total follow-up of 78.73×106 person-years, 273 community cases of agranulocytosis had been found - of which 96 were excluded for various reasons and 177 were included in the case-control analysis - and were compared with 586 matched controls. Thirty cases of agranulocytosis (16.9%) and nine controls (1.5%) had been exposed to metamizol during the week before the index day. The adjusted relative risk was 25.8 [95% confidence interval (CI), 8.4-79.1], and the attributable incidence was 0.56 (0.4-0.8) cases per million inhabitants and per year. The risk disappeared after more than 10 days since the last dose of metamizol, and it increased with duration of use. Those with agranulocytosis exposed to metamizol had taken the drug for longer periods than the exposed controls. Compared with the cases recently reported from Sweden, the duration of use of metamizol by our exposed cases was substantially shorter, and the use of concomitant medications potentially causing agranulocytosis was lower. Discussion: In our milieu, agranulocytosis attributable to metamizol is rare. Geographical disparities in its risk estimate can be partly explained by differences in its patterns of use, in terms of dose, duration and concomitant medications. © Springer-Verlag 2004.

France’s La Place Media were one of the first pioneers of the publisher co-operative model, whereby premium publishers pool their inventory in a private exchange. The idea is that brand conscious advertisers get programmatic access to brand safe environments, while publishers get CPMs that recognise the premium value of their inventory. Recently La Place Media launched its video advertising division and it selected StickyAds.tv, a French video SSP, as the technology provider. Here Fabien Magalon, Managing Director of La Place Media, and Herve Brunet, CEO and Co-Founder of StickyAds.tv, provide some background on the deal and how the video co-operative will work in practice.
Congratulations on the launch of your video marketplace. Could you provide a little background on La Place Media, how the model works, and the publishers you’re working with [maybe also include a mention of why you chose to work with StickyAds.tv?
FM: La Place Media (LPM) was launched in September 2012 as a publisher alliance between premium media brands who also have strong offline assets: we work with TV channels, radio stations, daily newspapers, weekly/monthly magazines. We have first focused on monetizing the remnant inventory on desktop display of our publisher partners via ad exchanges.
We are now working with 25 premium media sales houses and have more than 200 websites in our portfolio. LPM reach more than 30M unique users per month.
We have recently launched a pre-roll version of our display offering, and selected StickyAdsTV as our technology partner to make this happen in December last year. StickyAdsTV had all the benefits we expected from a supply side partner: strong access to demand, strong local customer-services and strong development capacities.
Could you provide a quick overview of what StickyAds.tv are currently doing and explain how working with a publisher co-operative will be different from working with publishers directly?
StickyADS.tv is a leading European video ad tech platform with offices in France, Spain and Italy. StickyADS.tv enables TV broadcasters and ad networks to monetize their premium video inventory since November 2009.
With our state-of-the-art video supply side platform (SSP), premium publishers can maximize their video advertising revenues with top tier advertisers, secure their media assets while launching a private market place getting the full value of their context and content.
Winning LaPlaceMedia is then very rewarding for StickyADStv as a video SSP reference for 2 main reasons: we get the best premium media brands on board in France and we get to work with one of the most expert team in RTB in Europe.
Working with a co-operative of publishers is like working with a team which is not only an expert in media but is also very familiar with monetization rules and models in a pure RTB world. This reference is – as Fabeien puts it – worth 25 premium media sales houses.
With display advertising La Place Media has mainly focused on about helping publishers monetise inventory they don’t sell directly. However, in video there’s a shortage of inventory and many publishers are selling out via direct sales. How are you going to make the model work for video?
The video market’s dynamics are very different from display: demand is stronger than quality premium supply, which creates a stronger tension on pricing. Consequently we have applied a different strategy so far on our pre-roll marketplace: LPM is positioned first in the ad serving queue, above direct sales.
This creates a mechanical first-view for the buy-side. The buy side takes advantage of all the benefits of a programmatic transaction (improved targeting, efficient automated process), and we trade this benefit against a higher price-floor.
This set-up drives value both for the buy-side and the sell-side. Sell-sides increase their sell through at high CPM price band, whereas the buy side can use its programmatic magic to improve performance.
The first results of this set-up are encouraging: advertisers deliver above average completion rates and click through rates, and we have a decent sell-through at above average CPM’s.
What’s the current state of the French programmatic video advertising market? Are broadcasters starting to take an interest?
The French programmatic video advertising market grew by approximately five times between 2012 and 2013. Video advertising has become so central to TV advertisers that we are now entering a new era where programmatic video will develop very fast and with wider availability of premium inventory.
Several premium publishers will soon announce in 2014 the launch of private video marketplaces. TV broadcasters are already active and I am convinced they will unveil very soon their strategy in programmatic video. Looking it from a European perspective, premium publishers and advertisers outside of France are amazed by the level of innovation we have in RTB technology for video.
We get the impression that many market experts are now looking at France as a model to define the way forward in programmatic video for their own country. This is the reason why StickyADS.tv is now ambitiously looking at the role we can play in the wider European programmatic video advertising market.


CAROLINA BEACH, NC (WWAY) — Carolina Beach police have released the identity of a man who was shot near the boardwalk last week.
Police say the man was Devan James Massey, 27, of Pisgah Forest.
The 911 caller told police there was an unconscious man and people were providing life-saving measures in the parking lot. Police say officers on the scene saw the man had been shot.
The man was taken to the hospital but later died.
Police say the investigation is still ongoing.
