A Victoria resident is warning others to be careful as a new text message scam is making the rounds across the province.
Melissa Glushka received a text message over the weekend from an unknown number claiming she had been caught speeding.
“Our automated speeding system has caught your vehicle doing 46km/h in a 30km/h zone,” the text message read.
It also provided a link to a website to “settle the infraction without a court date”.
Glushka said this message immediately raised some red flags.
“I work in IT, contractor mainly for the government, so I knew right away. I thought I gotta look, look this up and see what’s going on,” Glushka explained.
She looked up the message online and wasn’t seeing anything. She then decided not to click directly on the link but copied and pasted it into a URL to open the website.
“The thing that caught me right away is they rendered the website, so they made it look and feel exactly like the government website,” Glushka said.
“Right away it says here’s the amount you owe, and and please input your payment or your credit card, and you can pay by PayPal.”
She added the fake website even included links at the bottom of the page that take you to the actual B.C. government website.
Story continues below.
The RCMP said it is aware of the scam.
“Scammers are always trying to find news ways to defraud anyone,” Cpl. Alex Bérubé said in a statement.
He said police are working with the Canadian Anti-Fraud Centre to help educate people on some of the most common scams.
“The first step is to always be cautious when receiving a text/email with a hyperlink, especially if you are asked to provide personal and financial information,” Bérubé said. “Always verify that the organization you’re dealing with is legitimate before you take any other action.”
He said residents should also look for spoofing used by fraudsters to mislead victims and convince them that they are communicating with legitimate people, companies, or organizations.
Some examples of spoofing are:
- Manipulating a phone number appearing on call display either by call or text message to display legitimate phone numbers for law enforcement agencies, financial institutions, government agencies or service providers.
- Manipulating the sender’s email address in order to make you believe that the email you’re receiving is from a legitimate source.
- Creating fraudulent websites to be a financial institution, company offering employment, investment company or government agency. In many cases, fraudsters will use a similar domain/website URL to the legitimate company or organization with a minor spelling difference.
Glushka said in this case, she knew it was a scam based on the website URL.
“Being a contractor to the government I know that it needs to have that gov.bc.ca tag on it, this one had .com so I knew right away this is a scam,” she explained.
ICBC told CHEK News in a statement that it is also aware of the fraudulent message and website circulating.
“ICBC does not send text messages to customers about traffic violation tickets or payment requests,” it said. “If you receive such a text, please ignore or delete the message, as it is a scam.”
Glushka said just because she knew it was a scam right away doesn’t mean others will, which is why she is sharing her story.
“All these scams are out there and it’s really scary,” she said. “Everybody’s struggling with finances and money and I hope that maybe by myself putting that out there and putting it on, you know, the the community connections that people are aware of it and don’t don’t lose any money over this.”
RCMP say there are a few ways residents can protect themselves from scams, including:
- Never assuming that phone numbers appearing on your call display are accurate.
- Call the company or agency in question directly, if you receive a text message or email. Make sure you research their contact information and don’t use the information provided in the first message.
- Never clicking on links received via text message or email.
- When visiting a website, always verify the URL and domain to make sure you are on the official website.
The Canadian Anti-Fraud Centre has a working list of scams on its website.

The first freight train from China arrives in the U.K., ushering the revival of the ancient Silk Road trade route. (Photo : Getty Images)
The first freight train that traveled China to the U.K. departed from Yiwu, from the eastern Chinese city earlier this month. It was inaugurated as a direct freight train service between the two countries and was due to arrive at the east London's Barking terminal Wednesday.
It crossed Kazakhstan, Russia, Belarus, Poland, Germany, Belgium, and France. Total travel time was two weeks and ran a distance of 7,500 miles. The final leg was through the Channel Tunnel between France and the U.K.
Upon arrival at London, the train was welcomed by a banner that stated, "First freight train from China to the U.K.-Yiwu to London."
The freight train pulled 34 carriages filled with commodities worth $5 million from manufacturers in Yiwu.
The final leg of its intercontinental trip was under the sea, in the Channel Tunnel.
China's freight system will be reaching 20 states in total and the U.K. is the 15th European city reached by rail. The freight service is operated by the state-owned China Railway Corporation, and it is operated by the Yiwu Timex Industrial Investment Company.
"For us, a service which is quicker than sea and cheaper than air is a great middle ground," said Jody Jacobs, a British exporter.
"This is the first train for a test - we want to know what's the reaction of the U.K. market," said Oscar Lin, general manager at OTT Logistics. The logistics company is the British booking office for the train.
He added, "But we've already received a lot of inquiries . . . 50 or 60 in just two weeks, without any marketing."
Darren Rodwell, the leader of Barking and Dagenham Council, said: "This is great news for the borough and London. It's a sign of Barking and Dagenham being at the epicenter of the capital's eastward shift. You could say it's the rising east meets the far East."

PromptUP quick-setting cement: Saint Merry’s church restored to its 19th-century glory
Another major renovation program has just been completed. The first phase of work was devoted to the façade, sprucing up moldings, stone blocks, and joints. The chief architect of the Register of Historic Places wanted the 19th-century natural-cement repair work on sculpted stone to be repaired using the same materials.
On the request of Tollis, a subsidiary of the Lefèvre Group specializing in restoration, Vicat Cement team, drafted a specification that would be an identical match to the stonework and sculpture while conserving the history of 19th-century repairs. Obviously only PromptUP natural quick-setting cement was up to the task!
Prior to the start of restoration, the Vicat specification and application advisor performed color testing, mixing PromptUP with local sands of different shades until he found the color required by the architect. He also trained the restorers. The site crews then renovated the statues at the entrance and at the top of the listed Gothic building. Finishing of the statues and molding required the finest skills. A second phase of restoration will get under way before the second half of 2016.
Subsequent to the success of the first phase, the research laboratory of the Register of Historic Places (LRMH) has asked us to help with the same kind of restoration work on Troyes and Angers cathedrals.

Creating an Impact Revolution in Southern Africa
An impact economy is a just, regenerative, and equitable economic system in which positive impact is produced in an environment of risk and return. In an impact economy, governments, organizations, investors, and consumers are motivated to include marginalized and underserved sectors of the society in the mainstream economy, while also serving the needs of the environment. A healthy impact investment ecosystem is essential to a functioning impact economy. This article describes early efforts to build such an ecosystem in Southern Africa, specifically the country of Zambia.
In August 2017, a volunteer-run group named Impact Investment Exchange (IIX) Chapter Lusaka was established in Lusaka, Zambia, as only the second on the African continent after IIX in Johannesburg, South Africa. Following training provided by the IIX Lead, a team of millennials just graduating from University of Zambia (UNZA) took it upon themselves to carry out the first ever mapping of the prospective impact investment ecosystem landscape in Zambia, the finding of which was subsequently discussed along with an extensive background report at a Roundtable on Mainstreaming Impact Investing in December of 2017 in Lusaka, Zambia.
Given the youth and inexperience of The IIX Chapter Lusaka team, there was agreement that they needed to ally themselves with more experienced and fellow purpose-driven professionals to facilitate outreach and to expand Lusaka’s awareness about impact investing. The IIX Chapter Lusaka’s first roundtable brought together 23 non-IIX local experts representing a wide spectrum. The seeds of the Zambian Impact Revolution had been sown.
The following December, the Global Steering Group on impact investment (GSG), with support from IIX Chapter Lusaka (today named Impactpreneurs Africa Limited) and 4IP Group LLC brought together 45 stakeholders to discuss the nascent impact investing movement in Zambia. A taskforce was constituted for the establishment of a National Advisory Board (NAB) for Impact Investment within the GSG.
The joint GSG-IIX Chapter Lusaka meeting ended with a call from all invited guests to be part of the proposed Taskforce for the NAB. Without hesitation, 18 people expressed an interest in participating. Consequently, the meeting led to a taskforce whose main task was to draft a business plan for the establishment of a GSG NAB Zambia.
The NABII Zambia strategic direction was to be governed by the objective of ensuring a continued and sustained impact investment that recognises a return of capital while creating both social and environment benefits.
The impact economy in Zambia is still rather nascent, and is today dominated by development finance institutions making investments in large-scale projects. However, the social entrepreneurial landscape is slowly expanding thanks to government efforts to support entrepreneurs, as well as grants from technical assistance funders such as Prospero-Zambia, which have resulted in a growing pool of market enablers such as BongoHive, WEAC, Impact Hub Lusaka, and Accelerated Growth for SMEs (AGS).
The GSG aims to change the world country-by-country. The main achievements of NABII-Zambia have so far been:
- Hosted the first-ever Zambia Impact Investment Summit in partnership with AGS that identified various opportunities that could be leveraged and actions required to build a robust impact investment ecosystem.
Source: NABII-Zambia Newsletter Issue No.4, Oct-Dec 2021.
- Launched the 2021 Impact Investment Climate Survey Report, in partnership with Prospero Zambia and the Social Value Solutions
- Held webinar under the topic “Supporting SMEs’ participation in sustainable value chains” as part of its knowledge-sharing among stakeholders
- Collaborated with South Africa and Ghana NABs to publish an article on the importance of collaboration to support the growth of impact investing on the African continent
- Co-Launched the Zambia Business Angels Network (ZBAN), Zambia’s first-ever Business Angels Network
- Participated in launching the World Economic Forum’s COVID Alliance for Social Entrepreneurs’ Financing Pathways Initiative for Small and Growing Businesses
- Launched a new NABII Zambia website, nabii.org.zm, which facilitates online dissemination of impact investment information and engagement
- Held a webinar with the theme of “Impact investing and Emerging Opportunities in a Post– Covid-19 Pandemic Zambia”
- Worked with the Central Bank to structure a SME finance facility
Outcomes and Impacts
According to the 2020-22 NABII Strategic Plan, the aim is to provide a platform to promote a compelling impact investment narrative that catalyzes an impact economy by accelerating the growth and effectiveness of the impact investment ecosystem in Zambia.
In 2021, NABII-Zambia commissioned a Zambia Impact Investment Market Sizing (ZIIMS) study from 4IP Group, which is a follow-up study building on the previous Kukula Capital baseline study prepared in September 2019. The ZIIMS study addresses and analyses 18 non-Development Finance Institutions self-identifying as impact investors, and 5 DFIs, which together are deploying capital into enterprises across 7 “impact sectors”.
The study aggregates a total of USD 85.17 Mn of assets into 28 impact enterprises, which were split between:
- DFIs: $47.17 Mn in AUM
- Private Equity: $36.17 Mn in AUM
- High Net Worth Individuals: $1.40 Mn in AUM
- Crowdfunding: $0.43 Mn in AUM.
The study compiles the most comprehensive dataset to date on the Zambian investment fund universe, providing a clear picture of the state and size of the country’s impact investment market.
The non-DFIs were also asked to rate the quality of the providers of impact investment information and facilitation support in Zambia. Some were unaware about NABII-Zambia. Others perceived NABII-Zambia’s quality in these areas to be good.
Perhaps the biggest achievement of NABII-Zambia has been that it has succeeded in introducing the concept of impact investment into the newly elected Zambian Government’s 8th National Development Plan, 2022-2026 under the category of low-cost finance (see figure 1).

If you are not as picky as I am then perhaps a thermal coffee maker is right for you. There are a wide variety of options as far as color and size one of the benefits is the ability to bring and place the crafe at the dinning room table while you entertain your guests.

Arsenal has sacked its manager Unai Emery.
The dismissal comes after a poor run of form, including a mid-week defeat in the Europa Cup.
It was that 2-1 loss – making it a run of seven failed games – that sealed his fate.
The North London club is eighth in the Premier League table and eight points adrift from the top four.
Arsenal play Norwich away at Carrow Road on Saturday.
It’s a game the Gunners should win given Norwich’s league position – just two points off bottom place.
While the board decides on a new boss, Arsenal will be managed by Freddie Ljungberg, a former player.

In August, we resumed our yearly trip to Canada to meet and dance with our Canadian friends from CVE.
On Saturday, August 19 and Sunday August 20, we joined Rejeanne and Raymond Labrecht in Magog, Canada for two days of line dancing. Magog is a city in southern Quebec approximately 90 miles east of Montreal. Rejeanne and Raymond are the leaders of the country line dance club in CVE which meets on Thursday evenings in the party room of CVE. They arranged two days of line dancing with over 20 Canadian and American line dancers. Les Complices (Ginette Lauzon and Laurent Labrecque) assisted with providing singing and music for the line dancers.
On Monday August 21, we drove to Montreal. After a late lunch with Maria and Renato Priolo, residents of Islewood D, we drove to Lachine, a beautiful place along the waterfront. There, we joined a crowd of approximately 250 line dancers. The line dancers were led by Nicole St-Onge, one of the line dance teachers of the French Alliance group in CVE. Many of the line dancers attending this event are winter residents of CVE.
On Tuesday, August 22, we were invited guests at a luncheon at the home of Daniel and Larraine Rosenthal. Also invited were 9 Century Village residents.
On Wednesday, we traveled to St. Jerome, a city located about 30 miles northwest of Montreal. We met for lunch with Diane Figler and Richard Demers. After lunch, Richard gave us a walking tour of the historic downtown of St. Jerome. There we saw amazing decorations and structures.
On Thursday, we met for lunch with our good friends, Pauline LeBlanc and Joe and Linda DiFabio, residents of CVE. That evening, we drove to the Pierre Elliott Trudeau Park in Cote St,-Luc and joined over 30 line dancers, many from CVE. We danced one and half hours until the rain came!
On Friday morning we left Canada. Wow! What a wonderful week in Canada. We were treated royally by our Canadian friends.
We are looking forward to our next trip in the summer of 2024. Perhaps, you will join us.

Most listings are in the $20's per square foot per year. The Downtown Mount Clemens submarket is experiencing a an increase in rates. In the last 3 months, the median rate increased $2 per sqft per year. That's a 9% increase in rent.
Compared to the rest of the Metro Detroit market, the Downtown Mount Clemens region has greater rates, and you'll need to pay a premium to be in this hot submarket.
In the last 90 days, 10 listings have been listed, which means office spaces are probably leasing quickly. You'll want to be prepared to make an offer immediately. There aren't many listings below 2,000 square feet on the market, so finding a space for a small business might be tough.
The standard measurement for office space in this area is around 760 sqft. Most properties in this area are approximately 2 stories. Most buildings in this region were built in 0 and are Class B.
This area is fairly equally mixed residential and commercial. Education is the dominant industry in this market. Commute by car is the most popular way to get to work amongst Downtown Mount Clemens residents. Commuting around 30 minutes a day is the norm for those who opt to reside in this part of town.

The Ministry of Health in Costa Rica issued a national alert after nineteen people died from drinking alcohol adulterated with toxic levels of methanol.
The victims were five women and fourteen men between the ages of 32 to 72 years old. They died in several Costa Rican cities from the beginning of June according to the ministry as reported by CNN.
The Costa Rican government has confiscated around 30,000 bottles of alcoholic beverage. Several brands suspected to be tainted of methanol are affected by the confiscation.
The public is warned against drinking liquor from a number of brands after samples were tested positive for methanol. The Ministry of Health claims that tainted alcohol often contains methanol that can induce intoxication when consumed. Sellers add methanol to distilled spirits in an effort to increase its amount and potency. This is according to SafeProof, an organization that lobbies against counterfeit liquor.
Symptoms of methanol poisoning include confusion, dizziness, drowsiness, headaches and the lack of muscle movement coordination. According to the World Health Organization, methanol is toxic even in small amounts and poisoning outbreaks are linked to “adulterated counterfeit or informally-produced spirit drinks.”
WHO reports that outbreaks have surfaced in countries worldwide in recent years. Victims have reportedly ranged from sizes 20 to 800 in worst cases.
A similar case was reported in India where 154 died and 200 more were left hospitalized after consuming counterfeit liquor. The liquor in question is unregulated moonshine believed to be “country-made liquor” in the northeast state of Assam.

Tiger Woods shook the golf world on Wednesday by saying his game is was acceptable for the PGA Tour – and dropped out of play saying “when I think I’m ready, I’ll be back.”
And even though the formerly ‘invincible’ Tiger Woods’ injury may not yet be career ending – his injuries have definitely thrown him off-course.
Here we take a look back at some of the worst career ending injuries in professional sports.
The journeyman QB Culpepper sustained a major knee injury during a game against the Panthers in 2005. Culpepper damaged three of the four major ligaments in his knee and was placed on IR. He was released by the Minnesota the next year.
Young’s Hall of Fame career was plagued by concussions. He had seven confirmed head injuries through his career and when he incurred the eighth, he decided that was time to retire.
Theismann’s 11-year career came to an abrupt end during a Monday night game in 1985 when he sustained a brutal break in both bones of his lower right leg – courtesy of Giants linebackers Lawrence Taylor and Harry Carson.
The famed Packers reciever was on pace for a Hall of Fame career, but it was cut short after just six seasons by a neck injury he sustained in 1994.
In 1995, the Twins pitcher suffered a broken jaw on a fastball pitch. He never made it back to the majors.
The former Aggies star was drafted by Detroit in the first round of the 1996 NFL Draft. He played only 32 games before his career ended abruptly after suffering a spinal cord contusion in a game against the Jets.
The former Patriots WR collided with Raiders defensive back Jack Tatum in 1978 and the resulting injury was a compressed spinal cord and two broken vertebrae.
Stingley spent the rest of his life in a wheel chair.

Now that the White House has turned into an assisted living facility, people are naturally curious about which of the patient-in-chief’s caretakers is actually running the country.
Unfortunately, the curious do not seem to include the Big Media types in the position to find out. At least a few of these journalists have intimate ties with the White House. It would seem, however, that to maintain those ties, they have to pretend that President Joe Biden is still compos mentis. He is clearly not.
Journalists on the outside are free to tell the truth about Biden but are forced to speculate as to who at the White House is backstage running the show. The tea leaf readers in my Twitter feed seem convinced that, if anyone, it is former President Barack Obama. They are sure their man is Marxist enough to have managed the party’s undeniable sharp turn to the left.
I think otherwise. I have no more inside knowledge than the next guy, but in preparation for my forthcoming book, Barack Obama’s Promised Land: Deplorables Need Not Apply, I have had to read not only Obama’s latest memoir, A Promised Land, but just about everything he claims to have written or that has been written about him.
What I have learned is that like any gifted sleight-of-hand artist, Obama has gotten his audience to focus on the wrong object. Pundits have debated his ideology — Marxist, socialist, progressive, pragmatist — and even his religion — Christian, Muslim, atheist — but they rarely questioned his commitment.
Although clearly immersed in leftism since childhood, even Marxism, he never left the shallow end of the pool. As president, he proved so adept at breaking promises because he did not care deeply enough to ensure those promises were realized. What mattered more was that he be seen striking the right pose, finding the right groove, spinning the right narrative.
Obama is not a serious man. Never was. To this point, Obama’s best biographer, Pulitzer Prize–winning civil rights historian David Garrow, titles his summary chapter on the Obama presidency, “The President did not attend, as he was golfing.”
Serious progressives in the Democratic Party have long thought of Obama as a dilettante. During his first term, for instance, outspoken black professor Cornel West chided Obama relentlessly for his half-hearted commitment to the leftist cause. Worried about losing face, Obama confronted West at the National Urban League Convention In July 2010.
He came down to West’s seat and hissed within earshot of others, “I’m not progressive? What kind of sh*t is this?” Obama’s account of this well-documented confrontation would have made good reading. Too bad he doesn’t share it in A Promised Land.
What Obama does share in his new memoir, although no one seems to have noticed, is his unease with his party’s leftward shift. In A Promised Land, there is not a single reference to an American left wing, let alone a far-left wing. Nor do we hear of any American socialists. For Obama “socialist” is an empty accusation leveled by what he calls “the crazies,” as in, “I was also a secret Muslim socialist, a Manchurian candidate,” or “[Joe the Plumber] had unmasked my secret, socialist income-redistribution agenda.”
Obama even rejects the label “progressive” to describe his political philosophy. He sees progressives as less extreme than the “crazies,” but he imagines them the way President Kennedy imagined “liberals;” uneasy allies at best, self-righteous prigs at worst. In A Promised Land, they stand outside his inner circle prodding him unreflectively to the left. He writes, for instance, of “progressives unhappy that we hadn’t done more to remake the banks” and of progressives with their “impractical demands.”
The label he seems most comfortable with is “liberal,” but even this word makes him squirm. In the memoir, for instance, he describes the people who attended a 2008 San Francisco fundraiser on his behalf as “latte-drinking, Prius-driving West Coast liberals,” as if those latte drinkers were a class apart. As Obama made comically clear in Iowa a year earlier, they were not.
Said he on the campaign trail in response to a question on rising grain prices, “Anybody gone into Whole Foods lately and see what they charge for arugula? I mean, they’re charging a lot of money for this stuff.” At the time, there was not one Whole Foods store in the entire state. Unfortunately, Arugula-gate does not make the memoir. That’s a shame. It would have added some welcome humor.
The one label Obama does reject is “centrist,” a label he identifies with the “triangulating, Davos-attending, Wall Street-coddling, Washington-focused” presidency of Bill Clinton.
This uncertainty speaks to the question of who Obama really is, a question he never quite addresses because he may not know the answer.
After nearly two decades of national exposure, Obama continues to remind us a little too much of Woody Allen’s Zelig, a character Vincent Canby of the New York Times described as “so pathologically nil that, over the years, he has developed the unconscious ability to transform himself, physically and mentally, into the image of whatever strong personality he’s with.”
As president, Obama’s bourgeois lifestyle and cool demeanor made him all the more effective as a front man for a movement that had grown increasingly strident, even punitive. As ex-president, he is simply redundant. Although still willing to sell what he lacked the stomach to lead, the Left no longer needs the service of a front man like Obama. They’ve got an even more pliable one in the White House.
Jack Cashill’s new book, Unmasking Obama: The Fight to Tell the True Story of a Failed Presidency, is widely available. His forthcoming book, Barack Obama’s Promised Land: Deplorables Need Not Apply, is available for pre-order. See also www.cashill.com.

This volume explores the relationship between law and geography, especially with respect to taken-for-granted distinctions between the social and the material, the human and non-human, and what constitutes persons and things. As a genuinely reflective 'Law and Geography' project, this collection offers interdisciplinary inquiry, particularly in response to globalisation - of law, commerce, environmental change and society - which renders relations between the local and the global more significant. Because of the sheer expansiveness and complexity of both law and geography we use conceptual frames to structure this volume - boundaries, land, property, nature, identity (persons, peoples and places), culture and time, and knowledge.
These frames cut across the various subdivisions of law and geography described above and provide a route into the various practical and theoretical deliberations on the interrelationship and interstices of law and geography which follow. The chapters are diverse in style, research methodology, and subject matter (organ transplants, lawn mowing, settler states, archaeological remains, shopping, gay nightclubbing, seeds, common space).

“Star Wars” actor Billy Dee Williams walked back comments he made to Esquire magazine that were construed by a number of media outlets, LGBTQ advocacy groups and fans as an expression of his gender fluidity.
“What the hell is gender fluid? That’s a whole new term," Williams, 82, said in an interview published Wednesday in The Undefeated.
A week before his interview with The Undefeated, Esquire ran an article in which the actor said, “I think of myself as a relatively colorful character who doesn’t take himself or herself too seriously.”
Williams then added, “And you see I say ‘himself’ and ‘herself,’ because I also see myself as feminine as well as masculine."
Human Rights Campaign, a national LGBTQ advocacy group, tweeted congratulations at Williams for “coming out and living your truth as gender fluid."
Williams told The Undefeated that he was referring to “men getting in touch with their softer side of themselves,” and pointed to the work of Swiss psychologist Carl Jung, who theorized in the early 20th century that both men and women have “anima and animus,” which are masculine and feminine consciousness and subconsciousness.
“So, that’s what I was referring to. I was talking about men getting in touch with the female side of themselves. I wasn’t talking about sex, I wasn’t talking about being gay or straight. People should read [Jung]. I mean, it would be an interesting education for a lot of people,” he told The Undefeated, further clarifying that “he identifies as a man” and that he is “not gay.”
Williams did not respond to NBC News’ requests for comment. Williams’ next film, “Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker” premieres Dec. 20.

EDM DJ Marshmello’s concert in Fortnite last Saturday was a massive success, reportedly attracting more than 10 million concurrent players to the 10-minute event. The concert set a new precedent within Fortnite and marked a drastic step forward in the way people experience events through VR—and it also caused Marshmello’s own discography to enjoy a massive streaming boost.
The songs that Marshmello performed during his Fortnite concert skyrocketed thousands of percent in streams, according to Nielsen Music. His song “Check This Out” saw the biggest boost, with on-demand video streams leaping almost 24,000% on Feb. 2 compared to the previous day. Video streams for his Ookay collaboration “Chasing Colors” performed similarly, jumping 22,547% on Saturday versus the previous day. “Chasing Colors” also saw a 1,543% sales boost, and audio streams jumped 500% on Sunday, Feb. 3 compared to the average from the previous week (Jan. 25-Feb. 2).
Video streams for Marshmello and Logic’s “Everyday” also jumped 12,653% on Feb. 2, equating to nearly 9 million views more than the previous day. Video streams for Marshmello and Bastille’s “Happier” soared 613% following the concert. Every song from the DJ’s set—including “Flashbacks” and “Fly”—also experienced strong sales and audio streaming boosts on the day of his in-game concert.
It makes sense for Fortnite to incorporate more live music events into the game. Nielsen reports that live music fans are 69% more likely to be esports fans than non-live music fans. And while esports fans rank video gaming as their No. 1 passion, the average video game fan personally engages more with music than esports. This crossover potential means that artists should be clamoring to infiltrate the esports world in order to develop a larger fanbase.
Marshmello’s massive streaming boosts also speak to the incredible global popularity of Fortnite. In November, Epic Games announced that more than 200 million people around the world played Fortnite. With 10 million concurrent viewers, Marshmello’s in-game performance far exceeded the viewership of any traditional, in-person concert, putting it closer to the realm of massive televised events, such as the Super Bowl halftime show. As Fortnite continues to grow in popularity and incorporate memes, dance moves and other popular music elements into the game, its virtual stage could become one of the most sought-after platforms for megastar artists.

Bayern Munich general manager Uli Hoeness has confirmed that he expects Ukraine forward Anatoliy Tymoschuk to join the club in the summer.
The Zenit St Petersburg player visited Munich before Christmas, where he held talks with Hoeness and Bayern chairman Karl-Heinz Rummenigge.
“Timoschuk wants to get back to us by the end of January,” Hoeness told Bild.
“It seems like he does want to join FC Bayern, but only on his terms.
“We also want him, but obviously only on our terms. I believe he will sign on with us soon.”
Should the 29-year-old agree to join, he would become the second new arrival at the German champions in June after Ivica Olic was confirmed on a free transfer from Hamburg.


Korean Air Lines Co., the world's second-largest airfreight carrier, placed an order for 10 Boeing Co. 787 aircraft to replace aging Airbus planes.
The 787s, also called the 7E7 Dreamliner, will fly U.S. and European routes. The plane will be delivered over two years starting in 2009, Seoul-based Korean Air said Monday. It took options for 10 more 787s in the deal, estimated at $2.4 billion.
Boeing is counting on the 787, its first new plane in 15 years, and demand from emerging markets like China and India to win back the title of No. 1 commercial-plane maker within three years.
Korean Air is buying new planes to compete with high-speed rail service and low-fare airlines on domestic routes.
The Korean won's 11 percent rise against the U.S. dollar in the past year also makes it less expensive to buy U.S. goods.

We have developed a guide for planning for the last days of life in response to requests from patients and their families to have a cohesive guide covering choices for end of life care.
We find that there is no ideal point in a person’s illness to raise this, and this is very much dependent on the individual patient. Raising the subject of advance care planning does involve considerable skill on behalf of the healthcare professional and is ideally done where a relationship of trust has been developed with the patient. Often the process is in a number of stages and leaving a booklet in the house for the patient and family to look at in their own time may be appropriate. Patients and their families should not be pressurised into doing advance care planning, but equally we believe that patients should be given an opportunity to plan for their future, thus retaining some degree of control over their lives.
St. Peter’s Hospice and North Somerset Clinical Commissioning Group are both using this document with their own patients. Copies can be purchased from Weston Hospicecare or simple print outs run from the download to the right.
We have also developed a document to facilitate decision-making for care of patients lacking capacity. The document aims to bring together relevant carers, family and healthcare professionals to share information which can help with making a ‘best interests’ decision. This can be extremely useful if a crisis arises to help direct the most appropriate management.
You may also find our educational video useful; it looks at End of Life Care and practicalities of use of Advance Care Planning:
If you would like some booklets to hand out to your patients, they can be purchased from us at a cost of £5 per booklet. Please contact us using the form below if you would like to order copies.

Tesco unveils plans to open F&F franchise stores in the US
Tesco has unveiled plans to open its first F&F franchise stores in the US as it continues with its plans to become a global brand for affordable fashion.
F&F, which launched in the UK and Ireland in 2001, will open seven stores on the east coast of America this year with its US franchise partner Retail Group of America.
The first store will launch in a shopping mall near Boston in May and will be followed by four stores in New York and one each in Philadelphia and Newport, Virginia.
The shops will carry the brand’s full range of clothing for women, men and children.
F&F chief executive Jason Tarry said: “We’ve had a really positive response from customers in all of our overseas markets so we’re hoping our American stores prove to be just as popular. F&F is fast becoming a true global brand, with franchise stores in 10 countries around the world and more planned for the future.”
The brand has also opened its first store in Armenia through its partnership with Al Hokair in Europe and Central Asia. F&F has already worked with Al Hokair to open stores in Saudi Arabia, Kazakhstan and Georgia.

CPI(M) demands complaints regarding non-inclusion in NRC should be thoroughly examine
The CPI(M) today demanded that all the complaints regarding non-inclusion in Assam's National Register of Citizens (NRC) must be thoroughly examined and no Indian should be excluded from the list.
"All the complaints regarding non-inclusion must be thoroughly and seriously examined and corrected. The time limit for claims on the inclusion of names must be extended to allow people to file their complaints. Only then the final NRC should be published. No Indian should be excluded," the statement said.
Pointing out that a large number of women have been left out despite the fact that the Supreme Court declared panchayat certificate as a valid document, the party alleged that there were a lot of anomalies in the preparation of
The CPI(M) also appealed to the people to maintain peace and tranquillity.

President-elect Donald Trump had a phone conversation with President Barack Obama Wednesday that he described as “very,very nice.” Obama’s spokesman said the call was in order to ensure a “smooth and effective transition.”
Trump had been publicly attacking the president since Monday. “President Obama said that he thinks he would have won against me. He should say that but I say NO WAY! – jobs leaving, ISIS, OCare, etc,” Trump said. This tweet came after Obama said during an interview published Monday that he is confident in his message because if he had “run again and articulated it, I think I could’ve mobilized a majority of the American people to rally behind it.”
Then on Tuesday, Trump said, “President Obama campaigned hard (and personally) in the very important swing states, and lost.The voters wanted to MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!” The president-elect went on to say on Wednesday morning that he’s doing his “best to disregard the many inflammatory President O statements and roadblocks.”
“Thought it was going to be a smooth transition – NOT!,” Trump added. The president-elect would later say Wednesday to reporters that he thought the transition process was going “very, very smoothly.” Trump said he and Obama had a “very, very nice” phone call and that, “we had a very nice conversation.”
White House deputy press secretary Eric Schultz said in a statement: “Today’s call, like the others since the election, was positive and focused on continuing a smooth and effective transition.”
“The president and president-elect committed to staying in touch over the next several weeks and agreed their respective teams would continue to work together to effectuate a smooth transition of power on January 20th,” Schultz added.


NYC, New York, United States of America

Archtober: Architecture and Design Month, New York City
New York City’s Architecture Week has proved so popular in recent years that this year it’s become a month long event with a new name. Archtober (and why not?) promises a veritable feast for the architecture aficionado.
In the last 10 years, new buildings on the boundaries of modern architecture have been sprouting up all over New York. Foster + Partners' Hearst Tower just south of Columbus Circle stretches up from a base of the building originally built by William Randolph Hearst in 1928, whilst SANAA's New Museum in the Bowery starts afresh, creating a structure of stacked boxes, varying in size and wildly offset so that light pours into the galleries below.
Foster, SANAA and others have been transforming not only the skyline but the city’s street level experience too by creating new public spaces for absorbing and interacting with the city's culture. There’s Diller Scofifio + Renfro's much acclaimed Lincoln Center and their converted rail track, High Line as well as Morphosis' 41 Cooper Square (bottom) and the raised courtyard of the new MOMA building (below) on 53rd Street - a horizontal landmark which contrasts with the city's traditional streetscape.
Archtober, organised by the American Institute of Architects, is packed with events for the architecturally-inclined, kicking off at 10am Saturday, October 1 at the Center for Architecture in Laguardia Place just below Washington Square Park. Design Miami Designer of the Year 2011, David Adjaye will be talking about how art and exhibition spaces are evolving on Tuesday 4 at the center, the BMW Guggenheim Lab on will be screening Greg Greene's 2004 film End of Suburbia at 6pm on Wednesday 5 and the month ends at MOMA with a talk about The Magic of Plywood the inexpensive industrial timber which has been used by modern architects and designers and transformed into wonders of good design in the 20th century.
Archotober also encompasses Open House NY from Friday 14 - Sunday 16, where you can get a chance to go inside the buildings you can only walk past the rest of the year, click here to see what buildings will be open. If you're heading to the cinema be sure to check out the latest film offerings form the design world as the Architecture & Design Film Festival takes over the Tribeca Cinemas from Thursday 20 - Sunday 23, click here for listings.


The new Tantum motor lock is unique in its kind. The Tantum motor lock is of a different order of magnitude within the current motor locks on the market. Not only does Tantum have 5 kg pulling power, it also has 5 kg pushing power. You can rightly call that robust extreme power! Coupled with an equally unique price/performance ratio, this makes it a multi-purpose lock. It is precisely the latter that makes it interesting to choose the Tantum motor lock, with all its advantages.
All Tantum parts are made of metal, which makes them stronger and more wear-resistant. The own production in the Netherlands with 100% final inspection guarantees the reliability and certainty of Tantum. Features such as silent alarm, which can also be programmed in the basic version; programming via the entry unit and the availability of an anti drill version, make Tantum unique in its kind!
Watch the Tantum animation here and see for yourself where the enormous pulling and pushing power originates from or take a look at the brochure below.
Our sales team can tell you everything about the Tantum! So if you want to know more about prices, order a sample or place an order, send an e-mail to email@example.com or contact your own M-LOCKS sales representative. They are ready for you!

Essay on the Human Spirit in Frankenstein and Picture of Dorian Grey
757 Words4 Pages
Similarities of the Human Spirit in Frankenstein and The Picture of Dorian Grey
The human spirit is one of the most beautiful forces in the world, but it is also one of the most vulnerable. In the novels Frankenstein by Mary Shelley and The Picture of Dorian Grey by Oscar Wilde, this idea of the human spirit is portrayed clearly. Both novels have similar aspects about the human spirit, but they also have their differences. Both novels have main characters who are influenced greatly by someone that they admire, and they are destroyed by that influence. The difference that these novels have is that in Frankenstein, the main character is influenced and destroyed by something he creates himself, while in…show more content… Another example from the novel is when the monster starts to become familiar with the little beauties and simplicities of life, but begins to realize that society rejects him because of his revolting appearance. This is due to Victor's ignorance of the monster's feelings and knowledge, because Victor never told the monster what he was, a hideous and revolting creature. Victor blames himself for these innocent crimes committed by the monster that he created and silently goes crazy, then dies from becoming very ill. Before his death, Victor asked his friend Walton to kill the monster, because he didn't have the strength. His motivation, the monster, drove him to the brink of insanity and eventually death.
In the novel The Picture of Dorian Grey, Dorian, the novel's main character, is influenced greatly by his friend and mentor, Lord Henry, and kills himself because he listens to everything that Lord Henry says and believes it. For example, Dorian explains to Lord Henry that he went out to the country and became a changed man, a good man. He had killed Basil and admitted to Lord Henry that he did so.Lord Henry mocks him and doesn't believe him. Lord Henry tells him that a human cannot change no matter what.Dorian refuses to believe him but can't help the fact that Lord Henry might be correct about it.But still, Dorian believes that he is a good man. Later on, Dorian looks at the picture that

Since 2014, B2 factory outlets gave their customers a reason to “buy with a purpose”. The concept for these retail locations began after the unfortunate passing of his wife and mother, Karin Black-smith. Her husband and son, Duane and Matt Smith, have taken this opportunity to ignite hope, inspire vision and drive change in the world with their retail stores and community programs in honor of Karin.
More than half of B2 Outlets profits were used to help underdeveloped countries, like Guatemala, create and grow resources for future success. They strive to lend a helping hand that empowers local families to help themselves and change for the better.
Their retail avenues can be compared to a TJ Maxx or a Burlington, and items such as furniture, toys, bedding, and clothing can be purchased at a discount. These establishments can be found all over “The Mitten” – and on June 23, B2 Outlets will open its 22nd location in Traverse City.
“Having been to Big Rapids, Cadilac, Ludington, Gaylord and several other places in northern Michigan, we’ve wanted to get into Traverse City for quite a while,” said B2 CEO Jason Hoffer. “It’s a weird time to start, but we’re excited to join the Traverse City community.”
To leave a positive mark in the new location of 1792 Garfield Avenue South. within the Cherryland Center, they will donate to a local non-profit organization chosen by guests.
“We want them to let us know which local nonprofits they’re most interested in,” Hoffer said. “So please come, please shop and let us know what the needs are in your community.”
In 2019, B2 Factory Outlets donated over $1 million to nonprofit organizations.

New Delhi: That the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) is set to come back to power with a mandate bigger than its 2014 tally is by now a fact well digested. But even as the BJP marches to reclaim the Lok Sabha with over 300 seats, the Congress party is likely to face a more humiliating re-entry into the Lower House of the Parliament.
With counting still underway, Congress has so far managed to win 50 seats and is leading on two seats. With a possible closure at a seat tally of 52, it is unlikely that the Congress will have any scope of claiming the post of Leader of Opposition (LOP).
According to Parliament rules, the biggest Opposition party in the House has to have 10 per cent — 55 seats — of the total strength of the House to claim the post of the Leader of Opposition. With the Congress party just managing to get 52 seats in the election results declared on Thursday, it is unlikely to be eligible to claim the post of the LOP.
In 2014, the Congress party faced a similar challenge when it managed to win just 44 seats in the general elections. It was only after Congress leader Mallikarjun Kharge submitted a memorandum signed by 60 UPA MPs that he was nominated Leader of Opposition in the 16th Lok Sabha. Congress had also banked upon the argument that the Salary and Allowances of Leaders of Opposition in Parliament Act, 1977 mandated that the leader of the single largest opposition party should be given the LOP post.
What is likely to make the run for the post of the Leader of Opposition (LOP) more dramatic is Kharge's defeat from Gulbarga in Karnataka.

In the last decade, several different optical imaging techniques, either based on various voltage or calcium dyes, or more recently on modified fluorescent or bioluminescent proteins (genetically encoded) that are sensitive to calcium, have been developed to study neuronal activity, and especially groups of neurons, with the goal of mapping and deciphering the neural code underlying major neurophysiological functions. Genetically Encoded Functional Indicators brings together expert contributors to present the development of recent genetic techniques that allow for generating genetically encoded activity sensors in order to investigate neuronal activity. Each chapter describes a specific sensor and its utilization to study neuronal activity in a particular way. Written in the Neuromethods series style, chapters contain the kind of key description and implementation advice that guarantees successful results. Helpful and easy to use, Genetically Encoded Functional Indicators aims to inspire students and researchers and to serve as a useful guide to those who wish to start using these different brain imaging techniques and require a bit of guidance in how best to choose a technique to match the goal of their study.

You may or may not get our newsletters but in the last two I referred to winter riding. What is more, I’m looking forward to it. On Saturday the trails were drying nicely under the sun and gale force winds. I was praying that the forecast would be right and we would get an overnight freeze. I went to bed excited about the prospect of our first winter ride and was not disappointed. The trails were either dry or frozen first thing: bliss!
I had planned to ride the Niner RLT9 cyclocross bike with my brother and we were to be joined by two mountain bikers, however, my bro cried off and I chickened out and packed my mountain bike too. But when it came time to leave the lure of the cross bike proved too great and I went for the skinny wheels. Good chioice!
This year has been really unusual. Up until today whatever and whenever I have ridden it has been fairly warm and reasonably dry, so any rain, mud and today cold has been a novelty to be enjoyed. And enjoy the frozen trails we did. Cold is not a problem as one just wraps up. I had my Northwave Celsius boots so my feet would be warm and dry. I love riding frosty trails and today we had the bonus of clear skies and a bright sun. It was true Bluebird.
Why are frozen trails so good? You get incredible grip and your bike stays clean. You can ride places that were previously impossible. However, it needs to be really cold and preferably frozen for several days. So this Sunday was just a taste of what it could be as, under the powerful sun, the trails were beginning to melt by 9am. Melting trails are a no no. The mud sticks, wheels slide and if your luck is bad the transmission can clog up and the inexperienced usually wreck their bike by ripping the derailleur off.
It was interesting the compare the CX bike against the mountain bikes. Climbing the CX was way ahead with the tables reversed descending. Anywhere the trails got smooth the Niner RLT9 surged ahead. The challenge for me was to keep the gap down as close as possible as soon as it got technical. With 35mm tyres and no suspension you soon learn to pick the best line and float the bike over any root or rock that can’t be avoided. My confidence kept increasing as the ride went on only to be rewarded with a blow out hitting big flint at the bottom of a fast descent. Next week I’ll be tubeless and running 40mm tyres (WTB Nanos). There will be not stopping me then.
So what is the point of a CX bike? 1, it’s fast and light. 2, it climbs really well. 3, it makes even the most mundane trails exciting. 4, it requires skill – it is making me a better rider. 5, it eats up road and fire road miles. What else? It can be used for touring, you can jump it and ride staircases and other stuff that is usually limited to a mountain bikers. Oh and most of all its fun because it’s so quick.
I am really enjoying this new riding challenge and learning about technique and set up. Who’d have thought that I’d be running lower air pressure than my mountain bike? The Niner RLT9 really is a joy to ride. It is surprisingly comfortable. It handles the technical stuff really well and the head angle inspires confidence in corners. It rails round the bends and takes off a lands with grace.
Here’s the ride. I must have switched the Garmin off when I punctured hence the unusal start point

Ajab Gajab – Not so funny!
Ajab prem Ki Gajab Kahani… With names like, starring Ranbir Kapoor & Katrina Kaif and the film by Raj Kumar Santoshi.
Now what was expected in this comedy genre from the Ghazab Director Raj Kumar Santoshi, who had written and directed a cult like "Andaz Apna Apna"? A decent story, some good funny moments, lots of confusion and hilarious chaos. Now let’s see he had delivered his promise or not!
Story / Script:
One sentence can say it all, “Same old clichéd story”. In mango people language, “wahi purani ghissi pitti kahani”… “Ek ladka ek ladki se pyar karta hain, dono dost ban jaate hain lekin kahani mein twist, ladki kisi aur se pyar karti hain, but uss ladke ke parents pyar ke khilaf, now the same old balidan wali bhavna, ladka un do pyar karnewale ko milata hain, parents ko manvaata hain, ladki ko at the enddd meinnn…ehsaaasss hota hain, woh sab kuch chod chadke uss ladke ke pass wapas jaati hain, and then happily ever after”
So story wise, Raj Kumar Santoshi gets only 1star. Good funny moments – only few countables are there. First half leaves no impression but only with some pakav Pj’s. The only worth watching is the second half, but that too with some limitation. Confusion – script wise nothing but only the audience will get confuse whether to sit for the whole movie or to just run away. Climax chaos was so typical from all the Santoshi’s earlier films. You will found it more or similar to the Santoshi’s “Andaz Apna Apna” or Priyadarshan’s “Hungama” chaos fight sequence which happens at the end. But by comparing would be insult to the films “Andaz Apna Apna” and “Hungama”. By that you must have get an idea what would be the chaos fight sequence. It’s not worth for spending some words also. The end sequence is also so old utha uthaya dhaapa hua scene. You will find it similar to “Namstey London”, where Akshay leaves Katrina from her wedding day, and then she finally realizes and goes back to Akshay. Ditto same is with here with a small change. Katrina goes back to Ranbir but he just vanishes and then “Saakshaat Jesus padhare” and helps Katrina to have Ranbir. Rating: 1 for the overall and +0.5 for some funny good moments = 1.5 / 5
Not to describe anything for Ranbir as he has already proven himself in recent film “Wake up Sid”. His character was somewhat like “Mera Naam Joker” who helps everybody with a smile on his face. He just excels and he is the only one person who steals and worth watching in the entire film. Katrina was same as usual, but she does good in some area. Especially watch the scene where the audience gets to know that she is an Orphan and her mom hates her and nobody in the family is there to support her. Her expression, her way of dialogue delivery was just flawless. Her main drawback was her foreign accent (still). Many a times you would feel that a foreign lady is acting in Indian Saree. She was strictly Ok. Rest Darshan Jariwala, Smita Jaykar, Navneet Nishan and Don Govind Namdeo were passable. Upen Patel and Don annoyed. Even Upen and Katrina’s chemistry was so not impressive on screen. Sad to know that Viju Khote was wasted here.
Direction and Technicalities:
Direction by Raj Kumar Santoshi was Ok. Editing was good and Cinematography was normal.
All of the songs here are good for listenable, except for one “Tu Jaane Naa” which has a lovely innovative picturization. Background Music was suitable related to the scenes.
Salman Khan angle which was presented in too old style. Totally wasted! The entire rescuing angle to help Katrina from getting forcefully married. And much more…
Ranbir praying in church and requesting Jesus for Katrina; Dance Party Sequence; Ranbir with his friends and saying “Choddo na yaar, Kuch aur baat karte hain” and Ranbir’s mom & dad romance angle.
If you have just watched the movie then I would suggest just don’t rate now. Wait for 4-5hrs, just do your casual work, now think about the movie, and now rate the movie.
Professional Rating: 2 / 5
Personal rating: 2.5 / 5

I have two white shapes that overlap on a purple background, which are in a pre-comp. One in animated (an arm) and the other is not (the rest of the body).
When I fade the pre-comp in, from 0 to 100 opacity, I can see the parts where the shape overlaps. This is made worse by having a motion blur, which seems to multiply the blur in that area.
Do you know how to avoid this situation, and to have the two shapes behave as one.

The Covid-19 outbreak has extremely impacted the global economy, consequently adversely affecting nearly every single economic sector. A rapid decrease in travel demand, the closure of borders by states and other travel restrictions have resulted in the aviation industry being one of the economic sectors most severely affected by the coronavirus pandemic. In the European Union, air carriers are expected to experience a 40-60% year-on-year drop in bookings for the period between March and June 2020. Furthermore, the European airports are anticipating a loss of 67 million passengers in the first quarter of 2020. This extreme drop in travel demand has resulted in numerous flight cancellations and the grounding of aircraft by most European air carriers, with such a trend expected to continue in the coming months.
In response to the current situation being experienced by the European aviation sector, on the 30th March 2020, the European Union adopted Regulation (EU) 2020/459 (the “Amending Regulation”) thereby amending Council Regulation (EEC) No 95/93 on common rules for the allocation of slots at Community airports (the “EU Slots Regulation). The EU Slots Regulation regulates the allocation of slots at European Community airports. Prior to the implementation of the Amending Regulation, the EU Slots Regulation imposed a ‘use it or lose it’ rule, whereby air carriers were required to operate at least 80% of their allocated slots within a given scheduling period in order to keep such slots for the same scheduling period in the following year (these are referred to as ‘grandfather rights’). It is clear that the sharp decline in travel demand and consequent cancellation of flights would likely result in air carriers failing to meet the aforementioned 80% threshold. Therefore, until recently, some air carriers have continued to operate near empty flights in order to protect their grandfather rights, thereby increasing financial loss and negatively impacting the environment.
In light of the foregoing the European Union, by virtue of the Amending Regulation, has adopted a waiver to the aforementioned ‘use it or lose it’ rule. The Amending Regulation replaces Article 10a of the EU Slots Regulation and provides that despite the fact that the air carriers were unable to meet the 80% threshold, the coordinators shall nonetheless consider slots allocated as having been operated by the air carrier to which they were initially allocated. This waiver shall apply for the period commencing 1st March 2020 until 24th October 2020. However, the aforementioned waiver shall only apply with regard to slots with a date later than 8th April 2020 provided that the relevant unused slots have been made available to the coordinator for reallocation to other air carriers.
Moreover, such waiver shall also apply retroactively in respect of air services between airports in the European Union and airports in the People’s Republic of China or in the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region of the People’s Republic of China for the period starting on the 23rd January 2020 until the 29th February 2020. This is due to the fact that the 23rd January was the date on which the authorities in China closed the airport in Wuhan.
Finally, it is worth noting that should the current crisis impacting the aviation sector persist, the Amending Regulation empowers the European Commission to extend the application of the aforementioned slot waiver through Commission delegated acts. Additionally, the newly implemented Article 10a provides that the Commission shall continue to monitor the situation and shall present a summary report on the matter to the European Parliament and to the Council by 15th September 2020.

The ongoing challenge in dealing with and managing Alzheimer’s patient behaviors is to understand the medications available and which are the best to use. Dementia behavior can be a challenge to manage but the right medications may help. Most of us are aware of the usual symptoms of dementia such as confusion and forgetfulness but there are other difficult dementia behaviors which may be treated with medication.
Some behaviors which may require medication are:
- Sleep disturbances which can include insomnia or frequent wakefulness
- Delusion, paranoia or irrational beliefs such as thinking someone is trying to hurt you
- Pacing or wandering restlessly
- Socially inappropriate behavior
- Over agitation or aggressive behavior toward others
Because these behaviors are very stressful for caregivers people often ask for recommendations on medications to manage the behaviors. Side effects need to be considered and weighed against the behavioral degree. Patients are often prescribed medications too soon, or in excessive doses that render them inactive. Ideally, medications should only be used after all non-drug treatments have been explored.
Here is a list of some medications often used for difficult Dementia behaviors:
- Mood stabilizers
Management of symptoms should first be through non drug methods such as creating a calm environment for the patient, exercise to relieve stress and anxiety, simple activities that your loved one once enjoyed and spending time with a pet if they have one.
Dealing with the various dementia behaviors can be difficult for family members but remember, this is still the person you always knew and they are not able to control the more aggressive behavior that you are now seeing.
This article is intended for informational purposes only. If you have any questions or are considering any recommendations, please consult your health practitioner.

It should come as no surprise that Miley Cyrus, an active Marc Jacobs advocate and consumer, was chosen by Mr. Jacobs as the new face of his spring campaign. The starlet has been highly involved with Marc Jacobs this year, including her adornment of the designer’s clothes at both the Met Ball and the Fashion Group International’s Night of Stars. She is currently still being featured in the ongoing “Love the Skin You’re In” campaign which has Cyrus posing nude. All of the proceeds from the shirt sales are donated to the NYU Skin Cancer Institute, which can be purchased on the Marc Jacobs website for $35.
Cyrus, who is featured on a dark, sandy beach, brings all of her moodiest looks to the campaign as she stuns in a ringleader-esque navy jacket with black detailing, deep plum colored shorts with navy detailing, and black sneakers with a white floral design. Her glossy hair and radiant makeup have the starlet looking particularly gorgeous. She is shown in the ad with Natalie Westling and Esmerelda Seay Reynolds, both models. The ad was shot by renowned fashion photographer David Sims and styling was done by famous fashion editor and stylist Katie Grand.
Cyrus posted a photo on Twitter of herself wearing one of Marc Jacobs’ marriage equality shirts from 2009, prior to posting two photos from the spring campaign. The word is out that she has also enlisted Jacobs and designers Jeremy Scott, The Blonds, and Bob Mackie to create the outfits for her up and coming Bangerz world tour.
Miley Cyrus grabbed the world by the tongue last year and has already made a splash in the very short span of 2014. Undoubtedly, her “Smilers” will be in no short supply of Cyrus in the coming year. As the twerking queen stated on Twitter herself, “Yo 2014! If you ain’t scuuuurd of me just ask 2013 what’s up.”

What is deal with Teredo Tunneling Pseudo-Interface?
Teredo tunneling is a method of tunneling IPV6 traffic over an IPV4 network, this method was developed by this awesome french doctor from Microsoft – Christian Huitema.
Costumization of IPv4 in to IPv6 with Teredo tunneling method:
Picture source: GEOFF HUSTON: IPv6 Transition Tools and Tui
You can find RFC document here which is used as source for my post: https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4380
The interesting part is: Hypotheses about NAT Behavior
The network and IT world is in transit from protocol IPv4 to IPv6. Not all devices support the new protocol IPv6 so engineers have developed solution for times of transit.
Teredo is an IPv6 transition technology that provides address assignment and host-to-host automatic tunneling for unicast IPv6 traffic when IPv6/IPv4 hosts are located behind one or multiple IPv4 network address translators (NATs). To traverse IPv4 NATs, IPv6 packets are sent as IPv4-based User Datagram Protocol (UDP) messages.
In the UDP method of sending packets is different from TCP/IP there is no check if packet was sent – this means we have less traffic in out network – because the idea is just to sent packets out in IPv6 protocol.
Since Teredo is designed to robustly enable IPv6 traffic through NATs, and the price of robustness is a reasonable amount of overhead, due to UDP encapsulation and transmission of bubbles.
Teredo is meant as a short-term solution to the specific problem of providing IPv6 service to nodes located behind a NAT. The problem is expected to be resolved over time by transforming the “IPv4 NAT” into an “IPv6 router”.

Up to 80% of people who have had diabetes for 20 years or more will develop some form of diabetic eye disease. Because of its significance, being diligent and regularly monitoring eye health is important in preserving vision quality and maintaining good eyesight.
Annual eye exams are an important first-step in maintaining excellent eye health when living with diabetes. Left unchecked, diabetes can have a significant impact on your eye health.
Diabetes is linked with numerous eye diseases, including: diabetic retinopathy, diabetic macular edema (DME), cataracts, and glaucoma. Note that cataracts and glaucoma are not exclusively linked to diabetes, though diabetes is a major risk factor.
All diseases linked with diabetes have the potential for serious or complete vision loss.
High blood sugar from diabetes is associated with damaged to the blood vessels in the retina. It has four stages:
Diabetic retinopathy is generally diagnosed through a dilated eye exam. During a dilated eye exam the eyes are dilated using special eye drops. This dilation ensures that your pupil remains open, enabling us to better see the internal eye tissues.
Ocular coherence tomography (also called OCT imaging) is also used to diagnose diabetic retinopathy. This test creates detailed images of the eye and its internal structures, including areas where blood vessels are damaged or showing signs of retinopathy.
Detecting retinopathy in its early stages is the best way to ensure that as much vision quality as possible is preserved. Vision lost to retinopathy cannot be restored.
There is no cure for retinopathy, though treatments exist that, especially when retinopathy is caught early, can help preserve vision. These treatments include photocoagulation, vitrectomy, and anti-VEGF therapy.
DME is the accumulation of fluid on the retina. This is the result of abnormal blood vessels on the eye growing and swelling, eventually becoming damaged and dying. This process leaks fluid onto the eye.
A dilated eye exam is also used to diagnose diabetic macular edema, as is a fluorescein angiogram and OCT imaging. OCT imaging is used to create a visualization of your eye; DME is indicated in OCT images as areas of the retina that appear to be filled with fluid.
Like diabetic retinopathy, there is no known cure for DME. There are treatments available to preserve vision quality and prevent vision loss.
Anti-VEGF therapy blocks a protein called vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF). The goal of anti-VEGF therapy is to prevent further abnormal blood vessel growth and to reduce the abnormal fluid in the retina. Anti-VEGF therapy is a multi-year treatment, where a decreasing frequency of treatments are applied until over the period of several years.
Laser surgery is also used to treat DME. Called the focal-grid macular laser surgery, the surgery makes hundreds/thousands of small burns where abnormal blood vessels are growing and leaking. These burns seal the blood vessels, reducing blood vessel growth and leakage.
Corticosteroids are injected into the eye to treat DME. While corticosteroids have been shown to suppress the development of DME, long-term use of corticosteroids has been linked with an increased probability of developing cataracts and glaucoma.

Martin Scorsese and Robert De Niro together for the first time.
This movie started a relationship that spans eight films and sparked creative genius from behind-the-camera as well as in front of the camera that has yet to be duplicated.
'Mean Streets' offers a little insight into a world that's both fascinating and dangerous, thanks to Scorsese's semi-autobiographical references he incorporated into this film.
Harvey Keitel plays a young Italian named Charlie. As Johnny-Boy so eloquently puts it, "Charlies likes everybody. Everybody likes Charlie." He struggles to live his life with some degree of normalcy, but immediately feels the pressures of his Little Italy neighborhood. He feels he has to save Johnny-Boy from a life of gambling and heavy debt, but when he can't, the climax begins to unfold. A far cry from his 'Sport' characterization in "Taxi Driver," Harvey Keitel gives a great and sympathy-evoking performance.
Robert De Niro plays Johnny-Boy, Charlie's childhood friend who's a bit unbalanced and a lot in debt. This role here offers a foreshadowing in the roles that good 'ol Bobby D. would later become famous for. ::Ahem:: 'Travis Bickle' in "Taxi Driver." Johnny-Boy is enjoyable, from his entrance into Charlie's bar right up to the climatic end (I'm not giving it away.)De Niro is astounding, and I'm not saying that just because he's my favorite actor on the face of this green earth. He's really captivating. It's extremely hard to take your eyes off of him because of his character's unpredicatability.Read more ›

An example of a simple USB communication would be helpful. Like from a mouse. Also, Christian, I'm interested in which USB protocal analyzers are available for low cost, and what is gained from a more expensive analyzer.
Tomorrow, I will give an example of how a Device is recognized by a Host and the complete enumeration process.
Low cost, good Price/Performance ratio analysers woudl be products from TotalPhase.
Ellisys protocol analysers are a bit more expensive but have better presentation of information. Ellisys also provides a USB Generator that is very useful when you want to test a Host as we will see Friday.
A new service lets engineers and orthopedic surgeons design and 3D print highly accurate, patient-specific, orthopedic medical implants made of metal -- without owning a 3D printer. Using free, downloadable software, users can import ASCII and binary .STL files, design the implant, and send an encrypted design file to a third-party manufacturer.
For industrial control applications, or even a simple assembly line, that machine can go almost 24/7 without a break. But what happens when the task is a little more complex? That’s where the “smart” machine would come in. The smart machine is one that has some simple (or complex in some cases) processing capability to be able to adapt to changing conditions. Such machines are suited for a host of applications, including automotive, aerospace, defense, medical, computers and electronics, telecommunications, consumer goods, and so on. This discussion will examine what’s possible with smart machines, and what tradeoffs need to be made to implement such a solution.
