Since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, researchers have worked at lightning speed to develop tests, vaccines, and treatments. Despite all of these breakthroughs, there is still a lot we do not know about this disease, and particularly about its long-term effects, known as long COVID.
Fatigue is the most prevalent symptom of long COVID, but many people report ongoing neurological and psychological symptoms. The effects it has on the brain are some of the biggest unknowns and are attracting a lot of interest from researchers.
Long COVID was largely defined by the people experiencing it coming forward about their symptoms on social media. At the start of the pandemic, people were not warned of the possibilities of long COVID because so much was unknown about the novel virus.
As the first wave recovered, many previously healthy people described symptoms that persisted or appeared weeks after infection. After fatigue, neurological symptoms such as confusion, poor concentration and memory, and brain fog were common.
One study indicates that the long-term cognitive problems in long COVID may be due to inflammation as measured by CRP. The liver makes CRP or c-reaction protein in response to inflammation.
Previous studies have linked high CRP and inflammation to long-term cognitive decline and changes in memory, attention, self-control, and verbal fluency, but more research is needed about how CRP relates to long COVID.
Strokes are common in people recovered from COVID, particularly those over 70.
Silent strokes may also occur, and these typically affect the white matter that facilitates communication between parts of the brain and plays a role in attention and other cognitive functions. If someone with COVID experiences a silent stroke, it can affect their brain significantly, and they may not even realize that anything happened.
Some studies suggest that COVID survivors are at greater risk for neurological diseases, particularly Alzheimer's. Researchers are unsure of how COVID causes this, but they suspect it may be due to inflammation, encephalitis, organ dysfunction, or changes in the vasculature in the brain.
They theorize that COVID either aggravates a pre-existing neurological condition or initiates a new one, but more research and surveillance of COVID survivors is needed.
COVID may also directly affect the brain. Researchers know that the virus affects the olfactory muscosa, the tissue at the top of the nasal cavity, because loss of smell is a common symptom of COVID. Some researchers speculate that the virus could travel into the brain through this tissue. The virus may also be able to pass through the blood-brain barrier due to the inflammation and instability that it causes in the body.
If COVID can invade the brain stem, long-term neurological symptoms are likely.
Long COVID is also likely to take a significant toll on mental health. Little is known about long COVID, so there is a lot of uncertainty for people experiencing it and few concrete answers. These things combined with a possible loss of income, difficulty obtaining benefits, and general skepticism about long COVID can lead to feelings of isolation and depression.
Researchers have many theories about long COVID and the brain, but diagnosis is challenging. Doctors cannot confirm any causes of long-term neurological and psychiatric symptoms of COVID as the things suspected to cause it are not detectable in the brains of COVID survivors.
No laboratory tests or imaging studies can provide objective results, so diagnosis depends on the subjective reporting of the person experiencing symptoms. Doctors can rule out other things, but there is no way to confirm long COVID.
Studies show that some people are more prone to developing long COVID than others. Women are more than twice as likely to get it than men, and many people who experience long COVID symptoms already have existing autoimmune diseases, indicating a possible connection.
People with a history of depression, anxiety, or mood disorders were also more vulnerable to developing long COVID. Some research indicates that people who had multisystem disease are more likely to develop long COVID.
Long COVID is an essential part of ongoing COVID treatment and research for many reasons, one being that it affects so many survivors. Research shows that 87 percent of people hospitalized with COVID have symptoms 60 days after the onset of the disease, and about 4.5 percent of people have mild symptoms that continue for more than eight weeks.
Other studies claim that as many as half of non-hospitalized COVID patients have at least one symptom that lasts an average of four months. When considering how many people COVID has infected worldwide, millions of people may be experiencing long COVID and its effects on the brain.
Diagnosing long COVID is complex, and researchers are attempting to develop more definitive diagnosis criteria. The National Institutes of Health have committed to researching long COVID.
Among other things, its goals are to determine the underlying cause of long-term symptoms, why some people get it and others do not, and whether a COVID infection can trigger changes in the body that lead to chronic heart or brain disorders.

Justice League, which released in November 2017, opened in theatres to mixed reviews. Owing to extensive reshoots, the film was a stark departure from what Snyder's vision was for the film. In the last year, fans have been rallying for 'Snyder Cut' and the filmmaker himself has shared several photographs from the shoot. As the demand for 'Snyder Cut' is increasing, the director shared two photographs from the film showcasing Alfred and Atom.
Just like some of the other characters, Ryan Choi's character did not appear in the film but was a part of Snyder's version of the film. Sharing a black and white version of the photo, he captioned it, "Ryan Choi, Director of nanotechnology Star labs". This image further pointed at the significance of S.T.A.R. Labs in his version of the film.
Another image that the director shared was of Jeremy Irons as Alfred working on Batman's gauntlets. Snyder wrote, "Wayne aerospace hanger￼￼." He also revealed that the change in location from Batman v Superman was due to the Flying Fox vehicle as Batcave wasn't big enough for this aircraft.
It is unclear whether the Snyder Cut will ever be released but the fans are really hoping to see his version someday. Gal Gadot, Jason Mamoa among other prominent celebrities have expressed their support to the ongoing “Release the Snyder Cut” movement.

KATHMANDU, July 8: Wise choice and use of household electrical devices is crucial for energy saving, Managing Director of CG Corp Global Nirvana Chaudhary has said. Highlighting the long-term benefits of using energy-efficient items, he said energy saving movement can start from home.
Chaudhary was speaking at an event organized in Kathmandu on Friday to encourage people to use energy saving technologies. The event entitled 'Energy Saved is Energy Earned, New Era Begins with Inverter Technology' was organized by CG Electronics - the sole distributor of LG products for Nepal.
Chaudhary said that the company is committed to protecting the environment for a better tomorrow.
"The company has also signed with United Nations (UN) to work on its sustainable development goals (SDGs)," he said, adding that the company is always committed to support the global goal of UN for the betterment of the next generation.
Issuing a statement, CG said that LG has introduced a large collection of home appliances with inverter technology. "The variety of products - refrigerator, washing machine, air conditioner, microwave oven and vacuum cleaners -- having inverter technology saves both energy and money of consumers."
"The electrical products that have inverter technology come with a guarantee of 10 years," the statement reads. "The adoption of the products having inverter technology will help reduce electricity bills each month. LG wants to sell lifestyle not products."
LG enjoys 30 percent market share in Nepal
Republica caught up with Bryan Park, managing director of LG Electronics at the sidelines of the event to know more about LG, its situation in Nepal, future plans, among other issues.
How is LG electronics doing in the Nepali market?
We are growing each year. As CG is already an established brand here in Nepal, it has been very easy for us to grow and compete with other electronic brands and expand our market. We have massive market share of 30 percent in electronics items in Nepal. We are number one brand in the segments of washing machine and refrigerator. I hope we will be able to expand our business further in Nepal as our products use less energy. As there is crisis of energy, Nepal needs products that save energy and have long life.
How is LG doing in the global market?
We are already an established brand in the global market, with 15 to 20 percent market share in television, 30 percent in washing machine, and 20 to 25 percent in refrigerator. We are number-one brand globally when it comes to refrigerator, washing machine, air conditioners, and television. As we are a big name in big economies, we will now focus on countries having small economies. We are focusing on products that are energy-efficient, economic, and reliable.
Why should one choose LG products over other brands?
LG saves more energy in comparison to other brands. We were the first company to introduce inverter technology in electronics. In comparison with other brands, LG refrigerators save 36 percent energy, air conditioners saves 70 percent and washing machines save 26 percent energy.
How has been the partnership with CG so far?
It has already been around 30 years since we entered in the partnership. Without CG, it would be very difficult for LG to grow in Nepal. LG has been rated as No. 1 electronics brand in the Nepali market because CG has worked very hard for it. We provide good and quality products to CG and the after sales service of CG has been very good.
What is LG planning to do in Nepal to make people aware about the benefits of saving energy?
We are organizing promotional campaigns to make people aware about LG inverter products. We will also aware people about the benefits from our retailers, dealers, and different events. We are also planning to organize some big events this year for public where we will showcase all our inverter technology products.

Tag: Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV
These three vehicles boast different levels of electrification and that plays a role in how well they are received by the testers.
Mitsubishi's all-wheel-drive plug-in hybrid crossover appears to have some pretty awesome traction capabilities, as we can see in this fun video.
Auto Trader recently released a brief comparison of three cars - Jaguar I-PACE, Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV and Alfa Romeo Stelvio.
Miles Consultancy explored the fuel consumption of plug-in hybrids in corporate fleets in the UK and revealed findings that the average is just 40 MPG.
Interestingly, there will be no PHEV package for the L200 pick-up truck, because technology is not yet cost-effective or beneficial in that segment.
Mitsubishi should consider developing a new generation as the breakneck folding system for the rear seats and inconvenient navigation are sour points.
The UK is the Outlander PHEVs biggest market in Europe, and Europe was most important for the car globally.
September again proves how much important the plug-in hybrid Outlander is to Mitsubishi in UK, as 41% of the brand sales that month were Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV.
The best-selling plug-in hybrid vehicle in the UK, the Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV, now has two new trim levels.
Mitsubishi Motors launched the 2019 Outlander PHEV in Japan at prices from ¥3,939,840 to ¥5,090,040 (around $35,500 to $48,900), incl. consumption tax.
Mitsubishi just announced pricing and specification of the 2019 Outlander PHEV for British market, which getting first deliveries in Europe.

Despite the plug-in market in UK changed so much since 2014, the Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV still occupies the sweet spot of consumer needs.
After the first five months of the year, the British market, with a big advantage, remains the top market for plug-in hybrid models in Europe.
More power. More torque. More battery capacity. You get the gist. Mitsubishi has given its plug-in hybrid Outlander SUV what it calls a ‘technical...
Since the introduction in 2014, British consumers purchased more than 36,800 Outlander PHEV, which is close to a fourth of all plug-ins sold in that time in the UK.
In April 2018, Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV became the best selling Mitsubishi model in Canada and best plug-in model overall.
Mitsubishi delivered in March a fleet of its plug-in cars to Costa Rican Government, which is trying to jump start plug-in car sales in the country.
March turned to be the best month of plug-in electric car sales in Europe ever! In total some 40,936 plug-ins were sold, which is 41% more than year ago at 2.2...

This is a transcript of the podcast Distraction, your survival guide to our crazy-busy, ever-connected modern world hosted by Dr. Edward Hallowell, ADHD expert Dr. Hallowell gives advice with a 3 step process to turn toxic worry into productive worry.
DR. HALLOWELL: Hi, this is Dr. Ned Hallowell, thank you for joining us for this Mini Distraction. Like our full-length show, these Mini’s will be different every time, only shorter. It’s a busy world, and you don’t have a lot of time. These episodes are for you. We all worry and we should. Life gives us a lot to worry about. I differentiate between productive worry, what I call, good worry, and, toxic worry, worry that is really bad for you.
Difference Between Productive Worry and Toxic Worry
Productive worry is problem-solving. Your back account is running low, so you sit down and plan how you’re going to fill it up again. Or, you have a mole on your forearm and you say, “Gee, is that a melanoma?” You go to your dermatologist and get it checked out, that’s constructive worry. Toxic worry, on the other hand, paralyzes you, it freezes you up. You see that mole on your forearm, and you go into a state of denial or shock and you say, “Oh my god, I’m going to die of cancer.” You don’t take any constructive action.
Step 1 – Never Worry Alone
Toxic worry is rampant in the world today, because people are so disconnected. They’re connected electronically, but they’re disconnected inter-personally, so they don’t have the prime antidote to toxic worry, which is another person. My first rule of worry control is never worry alone. If you don’t have anyone nearby to worry with, worry tends to become toxic. It tends to fester. It tends to globalize and awfulize, so, the antidote is to connect with another person. Never worry alone.
Step 2 – Get the Facts
Step number two, is get the facts. Toxic worry is usually rooted in wrong information or, lack of information, or both.
Step 3 – Make a Plan
Step three, is make a plan. If you have a plan you’re going to be less worried, because you’ll feel more in control. The basic equation of worry is the combination of heightened feelings of vulnerability, coupled with diminished feelings of power and control, and, that leads to toxic worry. Having a plan makes you feel more in control and less vulnerable. Hence, the worry subsides.
Mind you, it’s an internal issue, worry. It’s not… the external reality is irrelevant. It’s how you feel about the external reality not the state of the external reality, and, that simple, three-step plan will save you many prescriptions of Prozac. Never worry alone. Get the facts. Make a plan. The first step being the most powerful. Prove it to yourself. If you’re in a big warehouse, in the dark, by yourself you feel frightened, paranoid. If you’re in a big, dark warehouse with someone, you laugh. Having another person there immediately detoxifies worry. It all comes back to the power of connection, the theme that I stress in all of these podcasts. The power of connection, the beautiful tool that’s right there for the taking, that’s infinite in supply, is free of charge. People just don’t realize how important and powerful it is.
That’s it … If you have an issue or question or a suggestion call us, toll-free at 844-55CONNECT. Or, email at [email protected]. Or, go to our website at DistractionPodcast.com to hear more mini and full-length episodes, subscribe to Distraction on iTunes, and, thanks so much for listening.

Today’s installment of campaign-related news items that won’t necessarily generate a post of their own, but may be of interest to political observers:
* Sen. Herb Kohl (D) of Wisconsin will retire at the end of his term next year, becoming the eighth sitting senator — and sixth Democrat — to retire this cycle. Among the names of possible candidates already being floated are former Sen. Russ Feingold (D), former gubernatorial candidate Tom Barrett (D), and House Budget Committee Chairman Paul Ryan (R).
* Former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee (R) said this morning he’ll make “a very important announcement” on his Fox News show over the weekend. No one seems to know what the announcement will be, or whether it’ll relate to his presidential campaign.
* Fearing that a race they expected to win easily is slipping away, officials at the National Republican Congressional Committee have decided to invest an additional $400,000 in campaign ads in the special election in New York’s 26th congressional district.
* On a related note, Jane Corwin, the Republican nominee in the special election, has loaned her campaign an additional $960,000. The GOP appears to be reaching a panic level in this race. The election is a week from Tuesday.
* According to a CBS News report, if Indiana Gov. Mitch Daniels (R) runs for president, he can expect support from New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie (R), Mississippi Gov. Haley Barbour (R), Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker (R), and former First Lady Laura Bush.
* The new Chicago headquarters for President Obama’s re-election effort opened its doors yesterday. It’s the first modern presidential re-election campaign not to be based in D.C.
* In West Virginia, Earl Ray Tomblin appears to have the Democratic nomination wrapped up, but Public Policy Polling shows Bill Maloney leading Betty Ireland by just one point, 32% to 31%, in the Republican primary.
* As expected, Rep. Ron Paul (R-Texas) formally announced his third failed presidential campaign this morning.
* Rep. Todd Akin (R) will reportedly kick off his U.S. Senate campaign in Missouri next week.
* And in Kentucky, new polling shows David Williams with a commanding lead in the Republican gubernatorial primary. He’s positioned to face incumbent Gov. Steve Beshear (D) in November, and Beshear is favored to win a second term.


you got some good ones there and any would work and well but i still think the 06 if its your only rifle for the reasons you mentioned. welcome to the club
i think i'm with hm on this point. i'd rather buy a used 700 or ruger 77, than a new lesser rifle, like the 710 or the mossberg. my neighbor bought a 700 bdl in 308 for $350 with half decent glass on it. heck of a deal. so these guns are out there. there is a reason they are cheaper. the old adage "you get what you pay for" definitely applies here. do they work? most of the time. do they hold their value? nope. do they use half decent glass? not in my opinion. that said if thats the best you can afford then thats the best choice.You should be able to locate a remington model 700 and a scope (used in great condition) for $500.
Could that lever action .270 be a Browning BLR perhaps? Does it have a detachable magazine?Have a Savage model 111 in .270 and it works great on deer here in Texas. My father-in-law used a lever action .270 (forgot manufacture and model) for decades in the mountains above Boulder for anything from deer to elk. He still has that rifle and it's in great shape. Would hate to be on the other end of that thing if he ever got mad at me for marrying his daughter<grin>(even though we celebrated 30 yrs together this week).
That's true here, too, Ronn. You can get used stuff at gun shows for a wide range of prices, but for new guns, the local shops usually have better prices, and if you do your shopping ahead of time and know what you want, occasionally you can get a real smokin' deal when the shops have sales. I've done this several times as one of the shops always has big reductions in prices around Christmas and the end of the year. One deal, in particular, was a $1400 Benelli shotgun that I got for just a little over $1000.the gun shows i've been to, around here, the guns are cheaper at the shop, which is strange no doubt. whats that new tc that i saw advertised reminded me of the sps line.
My mistake on the caliber. After thinking about it for a while (and verifying in the Blue Book), it's a Savage Model 99 in .300 Savage.Could that lever action .270 be a Browning BLR perhaps? Does it have a detachable magazine?

Combine some finely knead paneer with boiled potatoes and soaked bread pieces so that it kinds nice dough. Dip slices of leftover bread in a mix of milk, an egg, powdered sugar, cinnamon powder and a few saffron (non-obligatory) and let it soak. White bread also incorporates a variety of nutritional vitamins and minerals , however it has less fibre than wholegrain, wholemeal or brown breads. For many people, it is not reducing out fast meals or that bag of chips they kept in their pantry for when the late-night time munchies set in that is the issue. Fortunately though, should you’re prepared to get just a bit bit artistic, you’ll be able to have that bread and still get to your target lean body fats stage.
Verify the pack: follow the cooking instructions rigorously when frying or oven-heating packaged food merchandise equivalent to chips, roast potatoes and parsnips. My eating regimen is about balance and selecting essentially the most nutritious choices, however I do prefer to reside slightly and have my bread occasionally! Additionally, crepes for instance will be made in 10 minutes, whereas bread wants some serious hours – not attainable in the event you’re in a bind in the morning since you forgot to pack lunches the evening before! Entire grain bread usually describes bread made utilizing wholemeal flour and infrequently some white flour, with another whole grains added, like kibbled (broken) grains of wheat, barley, oats or rye.
If you should eat bread, I suggest at least you keep away from wheat, and all the time eat bread constructed from a real sourdough course of (this bread won’t include bakers yeast on the ingredient listing but only sourdough yeast). It is vitally essential that you are aware of the healthy quick foods obtainable available in the market. Eating processed meals sparsely is okay, however customers must be on the lookout for hidden sugar, sodium and fats. Bread , pasta , cereal—all could be banished from the plan depending on the precise requirements that your chosen weight loss plan calls for. You may make sourdough bread your self in a few straightforward steps, but you will must make a starter tradition to work with. Oopsie bread is widely used as a substitute for wheat bread, and is delicious as a bun for burgers or served with toppings. Please be aware: Nature’s Personal Bread not too long ago took out azodicarbonamide, however remains to be not really useful.
Though potatoes are vegetables, within the UK we mostly eat them as the starchy meals part of a meal, and they’re a great supply of carbohydrate in our diets. Go for gold: aim for a golden yellow colour or lighter when baking, toasting, roasting or frying starchy foods like potatoes, root greens and bread. All our recipes are examined completely by us to verify they’re appropriate for your kitchen at home.
This is the one bread I will eat now and know that I can tolerate with out chocking on … Read More

Two of Whittier’s largest medical groups, formerly competitors, will join forces to provide a wider range of services beginning in January.
Bright Medical Associates and Presbyterian Health Physicians have signed a letter of intent to combine resources at the start of 2008.
The organizations announced this week that the union will take place, and that the new group would be named “Bright Health Physicians of PIH.”
Presbyterian Intercommunity Hospital owns PHP, and the new group would be owned by the hospital.
The hospital’s CEO, Jim West, said the new partnership would allow both organizations to provide more services to patients.
“Now we’re putting the groups together so they can stop competing and start providing larger access to medical services,” West said Friday.
Both organizations are Independent Physicians Associations, or IPAs, which allow physicians to tap the resources of a group, avoiding the high-risk ventures presented by going into private practice alone.
Bright Medical Associates employs about 50 physicians full time, while PHP maintains just eight. Each organization has independent contracted doctors who work with the groups, and they specialize in different areas of medical care.
While Bright Medical Associates focuses on working with patients covered by insurance plans, PHP can bring several clinics to the new group, which provide care on a sliding-cost scale for those in need.
According to Jennifer Jackman, CEO for Bright Medical Associates, the two groups have not negotiated a price for the change, in which PHP would buy some of Bright’s assets, but the two groups would not merge completely.
“All the details of that part of the transaction are not yet finalized,” Jackman said.
The new group would be a not-for-profit foundation, as PHP is now. When PHP buys Bright’s infrastructure and equipment, the professional corporation that currently oversees Bright would remain in existence, contracting with the new group to provide the services of physicians currently with Bright, in existence since 1990.
The new foundation would pay the physicians’ corporation for its services, which would then pay doctors, nurse practitioners and physician’s assistants who work with the group.
The contract between Bright’s medical workers and the foundation would automatically renew, in 10-year terms.
“You do this thinking you’re going to be in it forever,” Jackman said.
Together, they will have more than 55 employed and 250 contracted physicians, plus 350 employees, serving a total of 140,000 patients.
According to Jackman, jobs on both sides of the united group will be safe at every level, and that no one should expect to be laid off as a result of the change.
“We need everybody we have, plus more,” Jackman said.
Bright and PHP plan to use their combined buying power to purchase an electronic medical billing system which would allow a person’s multiple doctors and specialists to share one chart, getting a more complete picture of what that patient needs.
“We’ll improve some of the process that we do so that patients can move through our systems more rapidly,” said Dr. Marvin Rice, president of PHP.
Dr. William Stimmler, president of Bright Medical Associates, said patients should notice little difference in the care they receive now, but can expect improvements as the groups expand together.
“The change is going to be that patients will have the continuum of care,” Stimmler said. “There will be collaborative efforts on taking care of the community.”
By combining, representatives say, PHP and Bright Medical Associates will not only provide better services for clients, but can provide more stability for doctors in an always-shifting medical community.
Dr. Keith Miyamoto, pediatrician and vice president for Bright Medical Associates, said the new setup allows doctors to better withstand the ebb and flow of the medical market.
“Over the years, our physicians have taken salary cuts to the tune of up to about 15 percent,” Miyamoto said. “We can have a lot of that risk tend to go away.”

ILOILO City – Eight sachets of suspected shabu were recovered from a suspect in a buy-bust operation in Barangay Poblacion, San Enrique, Iloilo.
Police identified the suspect as 44-year-old Rey Palao of Negros Occidental.

The ONE Secret That’s Ruining Your Relationships
According to recent research, approximately 25% of couples who receive marriage therapy report that their relationship is worse two years after ending therapy, and up to 38 percent of couples who receive marriage therapy get divorced within four years of completing therapy.
Why is this?
Watch this short video where Dr. Daniel Amen reveals the ONE secret that is ruining your relationships.
As you can see, the inner workings of the brain influence all we do in our relationships.
Your brain decides who is attractive to you, how to get a date, how well you perform on the date, what to do with the feelings that develop, how long those feelings last, when to be committed, and how well you perform as a partner and a parent.
Ask yourself, are you:
impulsive or thoughtful?
rigid or flexible?
anxious or confident?
negative or hopeful?
short tempered or patient?
able to admit problems or in denial?
coordinated or bump into walls?
attached or afraid?
faithful or a wanderer?
When the brain works right, it helps you be thoughtful, playful, romantic, intimate, committed and loving with your partner. When the brain is dysfunctional, it causes you to be impulsive, distracted, addicted, unfaithful, angry, and even hateful, thus ruining chances for continued intimacy and love.
It is clear that healthy brain function is associated with more loving and sexual relationships, while poor brain function is associated with more fighting, less sex, and higher divorce rates.
SPECT scans help couples understand the underlying medical reasons for their marital and relationship problems in a multitude of ways, including:
- Demonstrate that symptoms and behaviors are not imaginary, thereby reducing emotional pain and stigma
- Couples gain a better understanding of what is actually going on in the brain of their loved one
- Helps to target treatment specifically to your brain
This understanding helps couples by:
- increasing compassion
- increasing patience
- decreasing shame and blame
- decreasing conflict
At Amen Clinics, we can help you and your loved ones overcome brain health issues that could be tarnishing your relationships. Call us today at 888-288-9834 or visit our website to schedule an appointment.

I always wore belt buckles and I always carried a wallet, and every time I sat down I found myself pulling my wallet out and I always ended up leaving it behind
Walnut Creek, CA (PRWEB) April 05, 2016
Created by two brothers who loved to wear buckles but hated carrying bulky wallets, Wallet Buckle eliminates this problem with a safe, secure and stylish solution.
“I always wore belt buckles and I always carried a wallet, and every time I sat down I found myself pulling my wallet out and I always ended up leaving it behind,” said Wallet Buckle co-founder Trevor Johnston. “My brother Justin had the same problem, so we drew up a solution, and even though we can’t draw, the concept was so solid that it took off. The response has been overwhelming, with men and women everywhere wanting a Wallet Buckle.”
Seven years after coming up with concept, perfecting the design, and protecting it with three patents, it's gone from pen and paper to production with every Wallet Buckle hand-made by the man who first had the idea.
Trevor constantly comes up with new designs, buys the materials and assembles each buckle by hand. Every Wallet Buckle ever made has passed through his hands and there have been thousands of them as it’s become a must-have item for everyone from country music fans, to rodeo attendees, to hipsters, to anyone who likes wearing a great looking buckle as an accessory.
A practical solution to a common problem, Wallet Buckle works great from the grocery store to the airport security line, with easy access to bank cards and ID. While others dig through wallets and purses to find the right item, Wallet Buckle users always know exactly where to find them; stealth, safe and secure.
For those on vacation worried about being pick-pocketed, Wallet Buckle's secret compartment will keep items out of sight, out of reach, and no one will ever know what's behind the buckle.
Wallet Buckle is available for pre-order on Kickstarter with early bird special pricing. For more information and to pre-order Wallet Buckle visit walletbuckle.com
ABOUT WALLET BUCKLE
Many people have great ideas, few can say they've turned theirs into a booming business. Trevor and Justin Johnston created Wallet Buckle to solve a problem for themselves, and quickly realized it's an issue for many. Carrying around a bulky wallet that's uncomfortable to sit on, often taken out, and left behind is common occurrence. With Wallet Buckle it's all in the name. A wallet inside a buckle, the perfect place to store debit and credit cards, cash, driver’s licenses and a passport while doing so in style. Their belt buckles come in hundreds of different designs to show off individual styles, while secretly carrying around items that can't be left at home.
Instead of business cards, the brothers hand out T-shirts to Wallet Buckle users, asking others to “ask me about my buckle.” They hope their Kickstarter campaign will have many others asking the same question, and soon having a Wallet Buckle of their own.

The New Hampshire Department of Health said Friday that it wasn't aware of any disease linked with the recall of a brand of ready-to-eat popcorn.
Dale and Thomas had recently announced that it was recalling certain popcorn flavors, Indiana brand popcorn, amid fears of a Listeria contamination.
All recalled products were distributed to various retailers and vendors. The products have a best-by date after of Feb. 4, 2013 through March 12, 2013. A list of the recalled popcorn products is available here.
The Canadian Food Inspection Agency Thursday warned people not to eat the Indiana brand popcorn products.
Symptoms of Listeriosis include high fever, severe headache, neck stiffness and nausea. The infection is particularly dangerous for pregnant women, the Canadian Food Inspection Agency said.
"Listeriosis can be a serious infection especially for pregnant women. Foods that are contaminated may not look, smell, or taste any different so there is no way to tell. The Food Protection Section here at Public Health is tracking this situation," said Dr. José Montero, director of the DHHS Division of Public Health Services.
Listeriosis is caused by Listeria monocytogenes, an organism that can cause serious and sometimes fatal infections in young children, frail or elderly people and others with weakened immune system.

Atlanta rapper Offset is ready to get back to the bag. The hip-hop star went online this weekend to let the world know he can’t wait for things to normalize.
Off jumped on Instagram this weekend to ask the question millions of people are thinking. The Migos group member reached out to his 16.3 million followers to find out when they think everyone could start safely coming back outside.
“How many more days til we can go outside??? Any answers????” -Offset’s Instagram
A few days ago, both Offset and his hip-hop wife Cardi B plugged his new Skrrt show. The duo went online to plug his series which centers on his personal life and love for cars.
“It’s here. Watch #SKRRTwith Offset now on @quibi .Look at my lil baby girl GO!” -Cardi B’s Instagram
“SAY NO MORE! @quavohuncho YOU THINK THE TANK REALLY BULLETPROOF? WATCH #SKRRT 🏎💨NOW ON @quibi” -Offset’s Instagram
“WHEN ME AND @iamcardib TAPED THIS THIS A FEW MONTHS BACK, WE WANTED TO SHOW THESE KIDS A GOOD TIME TO TAKE THEIR MINDS OFF CHALLENGES NO KIDS SHOULD FACE. CHECKOUT #SKRRT NOW ON @quibi TO WATCH THE FUN AND SUPPORT @americancancersociety“
Wait, There’s More
Offset’s new series is one of the must-see shows on streaming platform Quibi. Launched this week, the digital giant has content from some of Hollywood’s biggest stars.
Streaming platform Quibi is kicking off in a big way on April 6, dropping everything from a survival drama starring Sophie Turner (Game of Thrones) to a remake of The Fugitive with Kiefer Sutherland (24) and Boyd Holbrook (Narcos). But the series we’re perhaps most excited for is SKRTT With Offset, which stars the Migos member and car aficionado as he and a celebrity guest go on a unique one-on-one auto experience. (Airows)
Before You Go
A few days ago, the new Skrrt series trailer landed online. The must-see clip features Offset in all sorts of different scenarios juggling his love for vehicles with family and friends.


I am the technician working in a school with a network of about 60 machines.
The school has recently transferred from an old school into a brand new school. The new school has brand new network switches and connects to a fibre backbone that runs to the town hall.
The school has its own server.
I am currently in the Suite that has 30 brand new Dell Optiplex 755 PC's and they have all been ghosted from a perfect machine that was tested and working correctly before ghosting took place.
The machines are now playing up in a sense that you can be working on a machine, and surfing the internet without any problems, and then it comes up to say 'The network cable has been unplugged'
This only happens on certain machines, and they work fine when they want to, but then the problem reoccurs. Reboots do not affect this problem. The network chipset is 'Intel 82566Dm-2 Gigabit'.
Ive checked the switches but they all seem to be running fine.
Whilst writing this, the network card has come up to say its disabled, then re-enables itself and then connected back to the network, however this happens on top of the network cable unplugged issue.
Any ideas of where i should look for a solution to this problem?

Rather than attacking cancer cells directly, new cell-model research probes weaknesses in pancreatic cancer’s interactions with other cells to obtain nutrients needed for tumor growth.
A University of Michigan-led study is shedding new light on the way pancreatic cancer cells turn nearby connective tissue cells into co-conspirators in their deadly growth.
The findings, which appear in Nature Metabolism, also suggest a new potential strategy against pancreatic cancer by identifying critical components of metabolic cross talk between cells that might be attacked with new therapies, starving the cancer cells of vital nutrients.
Pancreatic cancer has been particularly resistant to even the best modern treatments — the five-year survival rate stands at just 10%.
“Tumors are made of different types of cells, not just malignant cancer cells,” says study senior author Deepak Nagrath, Ph.D., an associate professor of biomedical engineering at U-M and member of the U-M Rogel Cancer Center. “They work together and coordinate as an ecosystem, or a micro-environment, as we often call it.”
The research examined the complex interactions between cancer cells and structural, connective-tissue cells — also known as stromal cells — within the most common type of pancreatic cancer tumors, pancreatic ductal adenocarcinomas.
“In these tumors, about 90% of the cells are actually a type of stromal cell called cancer-associated fibroblasts,” says study first author Ziwen Zhu, a graduate student in biomedical engineering. “These cells help build a fibrous, protective structure, or extracellular matrix, around the tumor and are one of the things that makes pancreatic cancer particularly difficult to treat.”
The study finds that cancer-associated stroma cells reverse this process during times of nutrient stress, and start cannibalizing the extracellular matrix proteins available in the tumor microenvironment.
Nagrath adds: “Most cancer treatments directly target cancer cells. But so far, that approach hasn’t been particularly effective in pancreatic cancer. So, it’s exciting to think about developing a new strategy to augment standard therapies — attacking the growth of the cancer cells by targeting their interactions with these other stromal cells.”
Mapping the process
Using human circulating tumor cell and tissue-slice models, the research team painstakingly mapped the biochemical exchanges between the cancer cells and cancer-associated fibroblasts that provide energy for the cancer’s runaway growth.
It’s exciting to think about developing a new strategy to augment standard therapies — attacking the growth of the cancer cells by targeting their interactions with these other stromal cells.”Deepak Nagrath, Ph.D.
The study demonstrated that cancer cells secrete factors that reprogram the fibroblasts, stimulating the production of an enzyme — branched-chain amino acid aminotransferase (BCAT1) — that allows the fibroblasts to turn available branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs) into the preferred fuel of the cancer cells, branched-chain alpha-ketoacids (BCKAs).
“What we found, surprisingly, is that BCAT1 is predominantly expressed in the stromal cells and not in the cancer cells,” Nagrath says. “The cancer cells can’t use these branched-chain amino acids, the BCAAs, very efficiently. So, what they do instead is cause the stromal cells to make more of the enzyme that can metabolize and break down the BCAAs, and convert them into the ketoacids — the BCKAs — using extracellular matrix proteins available in the tumor micro-environment. The stromal cells then secrete these the BCKAs, which the cancer cells can metabolize to meet the protein and energy needs for their continued growth.”
New drug targets
Rather than looking for a drug to poison and kill off pancreatic cancer cells directly, the research team explored options for disrupting this nutrient cycle and starving the cancer cells to death.
The team found that the drug gabapentin — a synthetic amino acid that inhibits BCAT1, the critical enzyme in the fibroblasts — reduced the production of the ketoacids needed by the cancer cells.
“Gabapentin is a common, well-known drug for treating nerve pain, so the path to potentially translating this new knowledge for use in the clinic is much shorter than if we were starting with a new, unproven compound,” Nagrath says.
The researchers also identified a prospective co-target active in the cancer cells, though no existing drugs are known to target it.
“So, another aspect of future work would be trying to develop small-molecule compounds to disrupt a protein complex in the cancer cells known as the branched-chain alpha-ketoacid dehydrogenase complex (BCKDHC),” he adds. “Luckily, U-M has a great drug discovery program.”
The experiments were conducted using two different patient-derived cell models — circulating tumor cell organoids and tissue slices from patients with pancreatic cancer.
The models — developed in collaboration with co-authors Sunitha Nagrath, Ph.D., associate professor of chemical engineering at U-M and Ted Lawrence, M.D., Ph.D., Isadore Lampe Professor and chair of radiation oncology at Michigan Medicine — were chosen for their strong similarities to patient tumors and were well suited to answering the team’s research questions, Deepak Nagrath notes.

Pickering of the University of Texas Health Science Center; and Anirban Maitra of M.D. Anderson Cancer Center.

The family of Justin Woodall is still looking answers. Woodall lost his life in a motor vehicle accident on his property located in the 500 block of Ovilla Road on July 15, 2014.
To help aid the Waxahachie Police Department in its investigation, the family has offered a $2,000 reward for information that will lead to an arrest.
“We have opened up a benefit account for him to raise money,” Woodall’s mother Teresa O’Daniel said. “It is around $2,000 for someone to come over with any type of information that will help lead us to the people who where on the property that night that caused the accident. They might not have meant to kill him, but they were the ones that caused it though.”
At 8:26 p.m. on July 15 Waxahachie Police got a 9-1-1-call that a major accident had occurred in the 500 block of Ovilla Road. The accident took place on private property.
“The callers saw what looked like two vehicles driving at a high rate of speed parallel to each other towards Ovilla Road,” Detective Elizabeth Wilbanks said in a previous article. “They saw the vehicle flip. The one truck that flipped belonged to Justin. As that vehicle was flipping, (the caller) saw another vehicle leaving the scene.”
The witnesses described the vehicle leaving the scene as a greenish or brownish colored 1990s model SUV — a Chevrolet Tahoe or Suburban, Wilbanks said.
The vehicle also appeared to have two occupants inside the vehicle and left the property traveling northbound on Ovilla Road, she said. The Waxahachie Police Department has reviewed the video footage from the Exxon gas station located on Ovilla Road, but could not get any details from the footage as the cameras are not close enough to the roadway, Wilbanks said.
At the time of the accident, the SUV was traveling on a gravel road on the property. Woodall’s vehicle, a Toyota Tacoma, was traveling on the grass at the time of the accident. Police are unsure how Woodall lost control of his vehicle, Wilbanks said.
“It is still an open investigation. We haven't got any other leads to know who was on the property. That is kind of where we are,” Wilbanks said. “There are a couple things that we have looked at, but none of them have panned out to any legitimate leads. “
O’Daniel wants to encourage the public to do the right thing and contact law enforcement if they have any information to add to the case.
“Please come forward. He was our only child. They took a lot away from us when they decided to come there, trespass and break the law. Because of their decisions it cost us our son’s life. We want justice,” O’Daniel said. “We believe that he (Woodall) knew of them because of the way he went after them. He never went after people in his vehicle. If he saw people on the property he would go up and tell them they are on private property and tell them to leave. There was never a problem. So there was something with these people that he went after.”
O’Daniel describes her son as a quiet person.
“He was very quiet and kept to himself. He was a prankster, loved to play pranks and was always laughing,” O’Daniel said. “He had that certain laugh that everyone would talk about. Someone would always say something about his laugh. That is what I am going to miss a lot is his laugh — never hearing it again.”
Woodall’s friend Jason Randall said Woodwall was a private person and became his friend after meeting him while they were in the sixth grade in a computer class.
“He was a good guy. He kept to himself and didn’t really bother anybody. This is the first year that we didn’t hunt together. I miss him in the duck blind,” Randall said. “I want to know what happened, what caused this. It is not normal for Justin to be chasing someone down like that. Something else happened that night to make Justin pretty angry. I want to know what it was. I am going to miss him in the boat and the duck blind this year.”
Randall said Justin had asked people to leave the property in the past but for him to take off after somebody was out of the ordinary. Randall added that Woodall’s family is still taking it hard but they are doing better.
Randall wants to encourage the public who might know information about the offense to contact law enforcement to give his family and friends closure.
Anyone with information can contact Wilbanks at the Waxahachie Police Department at 469-309-4442 or stop by police department at 216 N. College St.
Information can also be provided through Crime Stoppers of Ellis County, which can be contacted at 972-937-PAYS (7297). Crime Stoppers will pay up to $1,000 dollars for information that leads to the arrest and/or conviction of a crime.
The tip line is answered 24-hours a day, seven days a week by volunteers, and a translator will be available if needed. It is also possible to send tips in via your computer at www.tipsoft.com.

As I’ve said before, I really really really love tacos. For this recipe, I wanted to try and ADAPT my favorite vegetable taco recipe to a different medium – namely a soup. I thought it might work because I could use the same toppings and just repurpose the taco filling as a spiced soup.
Tag: butternut squash
Gorgonzola Macaroni and Cheese with Butternut Squash and Pickled Pears
I’m just going to come out and say it – this is the best recipe I’ve invented so far (and one of the better ones I’ve ever cooked). I’m so pleased with myself! I usually make macaroni and cheese to cover a lot of bases; it cleans out my fridge of leftover cheese bits and vegetables, which reduces food waste and is good for my wallet. It’s also comfort food and can serve a crowd. For all these reasons I’ve made a lot of mac and cheese over the years, but that doesn’t mean it can’t be special! Here the combination of the salty-funky blue cheese, the sour pears, and the crunchy corn flakes really blew my mind. If you don’t believe me, you’d better try it yourself!
Butternut Squash and Broccoli Pizza
Guys, I have a confession…
When I was a kid, I hated pizza. I’m not sure why. Maybe it was the strong spices in the delivery tomato sauce. Maybe it was that I was slightly lactose intolerant. Maybe I just liked being difficult… At any rate, I was the bane of kids’ birthday parties for a long time, until I hit college and realized that pizza is the most reliable source of free food – one of my favorite things! Since then, I have learned that pizza is much more diverse than the simple red sauce-mozzarella-pepperoni slices you find in dorms. In Italy, pizza is really all about the crust, with a light swirl of fresh tomato sauce and cheese. But in the US, pizza toppings run the gamut and really offer an opportunity for creativity, for taking advantage of local and in-season ingredients, and for using up odds and ends left over in the fridge (my favorite). I have come to appreciate pizza in many of its forms, although I still won’t eat it cold, and I think warm pineapple is weird. What can I say? I’m still a work in progress!

After we informed you about some of the Nokia prototypes of the future, leaked by the Finns and made popular by Engadget Mobile, it’s time to analyze the most popular of those handsets: Eitri. Among the 30 devices on the list, Nokia Eitri stands out, as the interesting smartphone prototype that will be released in Fall 2009, if all goes well.
We’re dealing with an all-touch smartphone, with a 3.5 inch display (640 x 350 pixels resolution), pressure sensitive touch UI with tactile feedback and gesture support. Boy Genius Report claims that Eitri will arrive as a landscape candybar device, which reminds us of the Nokia N800, so it might be a follow-up to the Internet tablet.
Nokia Eitri would be running Symbian 5th Edition and in case it features N810’s slide-out QWERTY keyboard, it might spell success for the Finns.

All benefit eligible employees are offered the Aetna Managed Choice® Point-of- Service Plan. This plan offers two levels of coverage - preferred and non-preferred.

The plan includes prescription drug coverage through Express Scripts.
All employees except those represented by the Carroll County Education Association (CCEA – teachers, school counselors, therapists, RN’s) are also offered the Aetna Health Fund® PPO Plan with health savings account. This plan combines the use of a health savings account along with a high deductible health plan to offer tax advantages and savings for future health care expenses.

Employees are offered a separate vision plan through UnitedHealthcare Vision. This voluntary vision plan offers benefits every 12 months. Additionally, if employees are enrolled in the medical plan, as Aetna members, a discount program is available for additional exams, glasses, contacts, etc. (see above). Certain employees who were not enrolled in the medical plan as of July 1, 2010 but were enrolled in the previous vision plan have been grandfathered into a Basic Vision Plan offered through UnitedHealth Care Vision.
Vision Plan Benefit Summaries:
These accounts offer employees a way to pay for health care or day care expenses using pre-tax dollars. This benefit is administered by Flexible Benefits Administrators (FBA) and offers a debit card to conveniently access the money in the accounts.
CCPS provides each benefit eligible employee 1.5 times their salary in life insurance (rounded to the next $1,000) at no cost. Employees are eligible to purchase supplemental life insurance in $20,000 increments between $20,000 and $100,000. If employee supplemental life is purchased, the employee may purchase supplemental life for their spouse (up to ½ of the employee’s amount in increments of $10,000 between $10,000 and $50,000) and for their eligible child(ren) for $5,000 per child. Coverage is underwritten by CIGNA.
Life Insurance Certificates:
Coverage is offered to benefit eligible employees with the cost fully paid by employees. Employees represented by the Administrators and Supervisors bargaining group (A&S), as well as Administrative Technical Support Personnel and executive leadership team employees are provided this benefit at no cost. The benefit provides 60% of the pre-disability gross income if an employee becomes disabled beyond 90 calendar days.

Vice Captain William East is a pupil whose ambitions are given laser-like focus by rigorous discipline and organisation. A highly successful fencer with Olympic aspirations, William knows the value of structuring his time to meet priorities. Indeed, dealing with the cut and thrust of demands, parrying one to deal with another, is a skill he has derived from his swordplay. It is, as he so insightfully puts it, a matter of either/or algorithms: choices cannot be sidestepped or priorities deferred without inviting the inevitable damaging implications.
William’s success is gauged easily: he has appeared numerous times on the international stage and last year made the top sixteen in a European circuit event, took third in the British Under-17s Championships and first in the Public Schools’ Championships at Crystal Palace – the first winner from Kent in approximately four decades.
What William enjoys about the sport – apart from abundant success – is the mental challenge. Fencing demands of its participants timing, strategy and style, all of which make the sport a kind of physical chess in which the fencer, both in the action and observing it, is at once piece and player.
Fencing is such a part of William’s life – he has been on guard since the age of eight – that it is of no surprise that he brings to his academic studies the lessons of the piste. The rigour and discipline of training have taught him that practice and effort are the alchemical means by which raw passion is transmuted into award-winning élan. The sport has taught him to aim high too: a student of Art, Physics and Product Design, William has his eye on design in London, a career in which we are confident he will succeed, applying himself as he does in all things: to – what else? – the hilt!
Since the time of writing William has now secured his place in the U20 GB squad and has already participated in his first World Cup competition. (October 2016)
