Chiswick residents can look forward to better health outcomes after the contracts to a brand-new state-of-the art health centre was signed by Hounslow Council, the NHS and Willmott Dixon.
Published: Monday, 27th March 2023
The new facility will also provide 55 new affordable homes for key health workers such as nurses.
The new facility, which will replace the old one, will also reduce the amount of carbon emissions by more than half - making it more environmentally friendly.
Hounslow Council will now work in partnership with NHS Property Services (NHSPS) and Willmott Dixon to ensure the redevelopment of Chiswick Health Centre meets the needs and demands of the local community for years to come.
The plans include modern consulting and examination rooms, district nurse facilities, community rooms and staff accommodation.
A new public community garden, a private landscaped central courtyard, fifth floor garden terrace and gardens, will all improve the general look and feel of the area.
Councillor Tom Bruce, Cabinet Member for Regeneration and Development at Hounslow Council, said:
“I am delighted that residents in Chiswick will benefit from a new state-of-the-art health facility. We want all residents in Hounslow to enjoy good health and this is a concrete example of us working with the NHS to achieve this goal.”
All three practices currently operating from the site – Chiswick Family Doctors, Chiswick Health, and West 4 GPs – have supported the project.
Reacting to the news, Doctor Venkatesham, of Chiswick Family Doctors, said:
“For several years we have felt that the existing building is badly in need of repair and modernisation. T are very much looking forward to providing more and varied services for the community in Chiswick with better facilities housed in comfortable modern premises fit for the future.”
The new Health Centre is set to open in Autumn 2024.

The Nvidia GeForce GTX 1060 Pascal-based graphics card is a powerful high-end graphics card that is one of the most affordable Full HD GPU options on the market.
Although the 3GB model is cheaper, the 6GB version features more performance due to its increased amount of Cuda cores, making it easily worth its slightly higher price.
The GPU competes with AMD’s Radeon RX 480 in the low-cost, high-performance graphics market, and offers gamers an affordable upgrade from their last-gen graphics cards.
When purchasing a graphics card, consumers may be confused by the wide range of partner cards available, with each model sporting different clock speeds and unique aesthetics.
German hardware website ComputerBase.de has conducted extensive tests to determine the best GeForce GTX 1060 partner card in terms of performance.
We have eliminated cards which are not available in South Africa yet in order to provide a complete South African pricing comparison.
Below are the specifications of the different partner cards.
Clock speed is the only difference between the partner cards, as all other specifications are the same across all products.
|Asus GeForce GTX 1060 Strix OC 6GB||1,620 MHz||2,025 MHz||4,100 MHz|
|EVGA GeForce GTX 1060 6GB||1,506 MHz||1,911 MHz||4,000 MHz|
|Zotac GeForce GTX 1060 AMP 6GB||1,557 MHz||1,911 MHz||4,000 MHz|
|Gigabyte GeForce GTX 1060 G1 Gaming 6GB||1,595 MHz||2,000 MHz||4,000 MHz|
|MSI GeForce GTX 1060 Gaming X 8G||1,569 MHz||1,974 MHz||4,000 MHz|
|GeForce GTX 1060 Founders Edition||1,506 MHz||1,911 MHz||4,000 MHz|
Below is the FPS delivered by each GeForce GTX 1060 partner card at a resolution of 1,920 x 1,080.
Below is the cheapest pricing available for all Nvidia GeForce GTX 1060 6GB partner cards across a variety of South African retailers:
- Zotac GeForce GTX 106 AMP – R4,799
- Asus GeForce GTX 1060 Strix OC – R5,569
- MSI GeForce GTX 1060 Gaming X – R5,699
- Gigabyte GeForce GTX 1060 G1 Gaming – R5,571
- EVGA GeForce GTX 1060 – R4,673
- Nvidia GeForce GTX 1060 Founders Edition – N/A
With the GeForce GTX 1060 partner cards, it seems you’ll get the performance you pay for.
The Asus GeForce GTX 1060 Strix OC is by far the most powerful graphics card, but it also ranks among the most expensive.
The Zotac and EVGA partner cards offer much lower pricing than other products, but they also perform up to 7% worse across all games tested.
MSI’s Gaming X card sits comfortable in the middle of performance rankings, but is slightly more expensive due to its unique Twin Frozr VI cooler design.

Mills Fleet Farm CEO considering running for Congress
The CEO of Mills Fleet Farm is considering running for Congress against U.S. Rep. Rick Nolan, according to reports.
“I’m not ready quite yet to go on the record but in the near future I will have a more formal announcement,” he said.
The Real Capitol View website reported that an unnamed source said Mills is considering a run against Nolan, a Democrat who defeated Republican Chip Cravaack in 2012.
The source said Mills was working to find someone to cover his responsibilities at Brainerd-based Mills Fleet Farm.
Mills' profile rose earlier this year when he opposed Nolan's call to ban assault rifles. Mills posted a video on YouTube that argues a duck hunting shotgun is more dangerous than a Huldra AR-15 — a type of modern rifle Nolan sought to ban. The video, which is below, has more than 273,000 views.
Last week Jim Graves, who founded Graves Hospitality Corp. and owns Graves 601 Hotel Minneapolis, dropped out of a second attempt to win the seat in the 6th Congressional District now held by Michele Bachmann.

The Type 103 Lütjens class was the last class of destroyers in service with the German Navy. The ships were US Charles F. Adams-class guided missile destroyers but with some modifications to meet German requirements.
|Name:||Type 103 Lütjens|
|Builders:||Bath Iron Works, USA|
|Succeeded by:||Sachsen-class frigate|
|Class and type:||Missile destroyer|
|Length:||133.2 m (437 ft 0 in)|
|Beam:||14.3 m (46 ft 11 in)|
|Draft:||6.1 m (20 ft 0 in)|
|Speed:||33 knots (61 km/h)|
|Range:||4,500 nautical miles (8,300 km) at 20 kn (37 km/h)|
|Sensors and |
|Electronic warfare |
The three Lütjens destroyers were purchased from the US to provide air defence.
For German use, they received the following modifications:
- Communication systems according to German standards. The Lütjens class had more aerials and a second mast mounted on the aft funnel. The large air surveillance radar was positioned further aft (above the funnel).
In turn, the new antennas and radar location meant that the funnels had to be modified. On the Lütjens the exhaust gases were emitted sideways with two pipes on the port and starboard side of each funnel.
- New location of the sonar array. The Lütjens had their sonar dome located in a bulge directed forward in the bow and not under the bow to reduce the ship's draft.
- Better crew accommodation.
The Lütjens class was upgraded to Type 103A in the 1970s with new digital fire-control computers and better missiles for the old Tartar SM1 missile system. The boilers were also converted to burn lighter oil for logistical reasons instead of the heavy fuel oil that needs to be preheated.
A second major refit was undertaken in the 1980s when the ships were upgraded to Type 103B. Missiles were upgraded with a single Modified Mark 13 missile launcher fitted able to fire the SM-1MR surface-to-air missile and Harpoon anti-ship missile. A typical balance was 32 of the former and 8 of the latter. Fire control was improved with upgraded computers and a new AN/SPG-60 radar which also provided illumination for the missiles.
Speeds over 30 knots (56 km/h) could only sustained for a limited time due to the enormous fuel consumption. With two active boilers the ship could achieve speeds up to 27 knots (50 km/h). Three boilers made 30 knots (56 km/h) achievable. For any speed beyond 30 knots (56 km/h) all four boilers were needed.

The average life expectancy of a man born in the United State in 2007 is 75 years and 5 months. The life expectancy for a man has increased dramatically in the past 50 years. How long we live is important; however, the quality of life is equally important. The ability to enjoy life to its fullest requires investing time and effort into health maintenance and disease prevention. This investment pays dividends almost immediately and it is never too late to begin. A person who was 65 years old in 2007 could expect to live to age 82, and a 75 year old could expect 10 more years of life.
Our bodies are incredibly complex machines that require fuel components (food, water, and air) to grow, function, and repair itself. Like any machine, the body requires routine maintenance to make it last a long time and to function well throughout a person's life expectancy. Using the body as it was intended and minimizing abuse also increases its ability to perform. When we buy a car, we expect to routinely change the oil, filters, rotate the tires, and avoid driving too aggressively to keep the car running smoothly and last a certain length of time. As in life, accidents happen and cosmetic injuries occur, but it is the "guts" of a car, the engine, transmission, and brakes that will decide if it will be happily driving down the road or sitting in the junkyard.
Our bodies suffer through illnesses and accidents and many are unavoidable. Taking care of your body also includes scheduled maintenance and screening examinations to detect illnesses at an early stage, which increases the potential for cure and a return to health. Learning to listen to the body's warning signs and symptoms is the same as paying attention to the check engine light in your car, neither should not be ignored.
A healthy lifestyle is not just an absence of disease, but an opportunity to enjoy the years of life available to each person. Medical care can help the body maintain its performance as it ages. A longer life expectancy should not be considered a jail sentence to inactivity. But as the body ages, there is an expected and normal physiologic change in some of the hormones in the male body.
Viewer Question: I've been under a prolonged period of stress, which seems to have diminished my sex drive. I recently read that stress can affect hormone levels. What can I do to counteract stress and improve my sex drive?
Doctor's Response: You are not alone in your concern. A diminished interest in sex is one of many symptoms that can develop as a result of increased psychological stress, and studies show that a decreased sex drive is a common complaint in people who have stressful jobs and work long hours. Fortunately, taking steps to manage your stress can help you regain some of your lost sexual energy.
Stress management is a highly individual practice, and each person must choose the stress control techniques that work best for them. However, stress control methods most often include a combination of exercise, relaxation techniques (deep breathing or meditation exercises), adhering to a regular sleep cycle, and proper nutrition. Exercise releases endorphins, which are the body's natural stress-fighting hormones, so any type of physical exercise is a good stress control measure....

Most new home owners prefer home plans with more privacy in the master bedroom and personal living spaces, others might need privacy in a home office space. Another important consideration is how much privacy would you want and need from other occupants and neighbors. If privacy is important to you, consider a house plan with an L or U shape design. These types of house plans can provide you with more privacy when building on an urban or suburban lot.
Buying a house is an exhilarating time in many people’s’ lives, but it is also a very daunting task to those who aren’t particularly real estate savvy. Where to settle down, the culture of the surrounding area, the quality of the schools and even the social scene—these factors among many others influence home buyers before they even get to start thinking about building a new home. A house is more than just its square footage and the breakdown of its rooms. You must consider your budget and the lifestyle of your family when deciding on the layout of your new home plan. Check out these tips to get you started on this exciting journey.

Narrow lots generally require a house design that rises up instead of spreading out, whereas, wider shallow lots can be ideal for broad one-story house plans.
Improved insulation materials and techniques for walls and windows have made it more affordable to heat and cool homes with the changing seasons, but there are also house plans that can help optimize comfort in the home while lessening the blow to your wallet. Look for ENERGY STAR/Green house plans offered by companies like The House Designers to ensure you build the most energy-efficient home for your location. Choosing a design with a number of well-placed windows that can be used to create cooling cross ventilation will reduce the need for air conditioning in warmer locales, while a compact plan that minimizes the external surface area to volume ratio—think saltbox rather than sprawling ranch—will conserve heat during harsh winters. A little planning at the beginning can go a long way toward reducing bills in the future.

This time our wheels started to move towards a beautiful lake fringed by forest-covered hills Mansar Lake. The place is situated in the state of Jammu and Kashmir and at a distance of around 62 km from Jammu. Mansar is a place away from hectic life and it's a perfect destination for someone who wants to spend some time in a quiet place near to nature. A place where there is no busy schedule, no hectic crowd, it a place to live close to yourself and to rediscover yourself.
Mansar is not only a popular destination of excursions but also is a holy place with history linked to Mahabharata.
Mansar lake is believed to be the place where Sheshnag resides and people used to worship this lake in respect of
Mansar is historically linked with the Mahabharata time, it is believed that Arun was killed by his son Babar Vahan and in order to make Arjun alive again mani (It is believe that Sheshnag has a very brightening thing at the top of his head which is called mani) was needed, so after defeating SheshNag Babar Vahan came out at Mani Sar (sar means head, so Mani Sar means at the head of Mani) which later was named as Mansar.
About the Lake
Mansar Lake is not only a place of historical importance, it's also a place of many rare water species. Lake has around 207 species of algae,7 species of fish, 15 species of waterfowl.
Lake also has two important species of turtles,viz, lissemys punctata, teionxy gangeticus.
Mansarialla lacustris is one of the rarest medusae found in the lake.
Lake encompasses an area of 329.4 hact. with the circumference of 3.29 Kms, in the center lake is 37 meters deep.
What to Do:
There are number of things one can do at Mansar.
If you love boating this is a perfect place to enjoy boating in a beautiful and calm place.
Walk close to the nature, there is a track around the lake and if you love to walk and want to see how beautiful the nature is around this lovely place, this is a perfect way to go.
Enjoy a trip to Mansar Wildlife sanctuary situated on one side of the lake.
One which we liked the most is to spend sometime close to nature and above all be close to yourself.
Where to Stay:
Mansar is in itself a day visit place for most of the people so one can find only limited number of places to stay. JKTDC runs their tourist huts and rooms situated in Mansar along with few other guest houses, Mansar is not an over crowded place so one can find the place to stay easily.
Recommendation: We suggest you to go for JKTDC, since they are being operated by the State government itself and besides the location of their guest houses is generally good which will give you the best view of the lake.
There are numerous eating places around the lake, besides JKTDC is also running their restaurants on the Eastern bank of the lake.
How To Reach:
Mansar is around 65 KM from Jammu, Mansar is located on the bypass road which connects Udhampur with Sambha.
There are many ways to reach Mansar and here are few of them.
If you are going from Jammu then start towards Pathankot, at Sambha (District under which Mansar lake is situated) take a left turn, Mansar is around 15KM from Sambha.
For all who are coming from Udhampur side (Coming from Patnitop,Sri-Nagar), Take Dhar Road from Udhampur which act as by Pass to connect Udhampur and Sambha. Mansar lake is situated on the side of this road.Approx distance from Udhampur 35 KM.
If you are coming from Vaishno Devi once can take the route of by Kishanpur to reach Mansar. While coming from Vaishno Devi one has to change the route around 17 Km away from Vaishno Devi where road merges with Jammu-Sri-Nagar highway.
Mansar lake is located on the road which connects Sambha to Udhampur and this road leads to Srinagar so overall this road is in good condition.
There is some few bad patches but in overall road is in good condition.
Except summer (May-June), this lake is good to visit, due to high temperature (43-45C) in summer we recommend to avoid this place.
All major cellular service providers are operating in the state of Jammu and Kashmir so one will not face any problem with respect to the connectivity.
Due to the security reasons there are certain restrictions on the Pre-paid mobile services and they might not operate in the state, but post paid services will remain to work excluding some services (sms etc).
One can find good number of Prepaid telephone booths in and around Mansar Lake to connect themselves.
For any medical emergency, there are various options available.
Udhampur district Hospital (30-45 minutes).
Sambha District Hospital (30-35 minutes).
Jammu Medical College (1 hour)
Private hospitals available in Jammu.
At Mansar one can get only first level medical assistance and has to go for one of the option as mentioned above.
We really hope that you will soon plan your visit to this beautiful, cool and not much explored destination. We are looking forward for your valuable feedback/suggestion to improve our guides.
So keep travelling and exploring... and keep sharing...

ANCHORAGE - Anchorage's parks are getting high marks from consultants hired to help update the city's parks plan.
The consultants compared municipal parks here with those in six other cities: Boise, Idaho ; Boulder, Colo.; Duluth, Minn.; Portland, Ore.; Spokane, Wash.; and Vancouver, B.C.
If mountain biking is your thing, they say try Boise, Idaho, which boasts 250 miles of trails and was named No. 1 mountain biking city in the country by Bike magazine.
If it's golf, go to Duluth, Minn., they say, which has the most golf courses per capita among seven Western and Midwestern cities with reputations for having good park systems.
However, anyone who likes to hike or ride on trails, or wander through natural wooded areas, can stay right here. Anchorage matches Boise's trails and topped the rest of the cities in natural space.
The consultants compared budgets, acreage, playing fields, swimming and boating areas, recreation centers, gardens, picnic areas, play structures, skateboard and dog parks.
Anchorage stacked up well by many measures in comparison with the other cities. It tied Boise for trail miles per capita. It was second to Portland for total park acreage, with 10,050 to 10,426 in Portland, and No. 1 for the amount of natural park area, with 8,000 acres. It was also top among the seven cities for picnic shelters, campgrounds, swimming beaches and indoor swimming pools per capita.
Anchorage has more baseball fields per capita than the average, but a below average number of soccer and softball fields.
Boise has a miles-long riverside trail and greenbelt, and a few years ago approved a special tax to buy open space in the foothills above town.
"We all love Anchorage the way it is," said city planner Thede Tobish. "We just want to use their standards as a way to boost our standards."
In two areas - maintenance and support of the system by fees - Anchorage is seriously out of whack, falling far short of the other cities, the parks planners said.
The other cities all collect about 30 percent of their revenues from fees and charges. This year Anchorage collected about 11 percent, though fees are scheduled to increase next year.
"It sends up a red flag and says this is where we have to look," said John Drew, project manager for the Eppley Institute of Parks and Public Lands at Indiana University. Eppley is preparing the update with the Anchorage firm Land Design North.
The number of parks workers in Anchorage, for maintenance and other jobs, falls well below that of most of the other cities. Anchorage ranked last among the seven cities for numbers of nonmaintenance employees, with a total of 134. The average is 653.
Vancouver had the most lavishly staffed park system but near the least amount of parkland, with 3,417 acres.

The idea of the 100 Black Men was born in New York City in 1963. A group of successful men from business, industry, and government decided to pool their skills, experiences, and resources to improve the quality of life for African Americans. Among the early founders were David Dinkins, Livingston Wingate and Andrew Hatcher.
In the 1970s, the idea of developing individual independent chapters in other cities took hold. The 100 Black Men of New Jersey was formed under the leadership of Dr. William Hayling in 1973.
Other groups formed in Los Angles, Indianapolis, St. Louis, Pittsburgh, Atlanta, the San Francisco/Oakland Bay area, Nassau/Suffolk, and Sacramento. In 1986, these nine chapters resolved to create "100 Black Men of America, Inc." as a national confederation with Dr. Hayling as the founding president. This newly formed alliance introduced itself to the nation during its first national conference on May 27, 1987 in Atlanta, Georgia.
Today there are 116 chapters in 34 states, England, Caribbean and Africa.
Some of the organization's distinguished members include:

“I am not a member of any organized political party. I am a Democrat.” – Will Rogers
If you follow politics, you may have heard this one hundred-year old joke before. Jokes always contain a bit of truth, and the truth Rogers is pointing out is that Democrats struggle to communicate with voters. The once-in-a-lifetime Barack Obamas excluded, Democrats struggle to motivate voters to the polls by explaining their shared values or by speaking about what everyday Americans care about. Talk of policies and politics won’t win back voters.
Democrats need to adopt a new strategy now, or they risk another loss this November. At the least, they risk a win based on being “better than the other guy,” rather than on being the best person for the job.
After Democrats had time to lick their wounds following their dramatic losses of 2016, post-mortems revealed that Democrats had largely ignored the center of the country and the national mood during the election, despite being warned to do otherwise. The losses were a result of the culmination of ignored advice about changing their messaging strategy. It seemed like it was finally time for Democrats to learn their lesson and to stop the punchline of a political joke.
Fast-forward to 2020, and polls show Democrats are doing fairly well with voters across the country. But, there’s a caveat. Polls also show Democrats are doing well with voters, not necessarily because of their love for the candidate, but because of their dislike for Trump. 67% of Biden supporters view their vote as more of a vote against Trump, rather than a vote for Biden.
Due to the wide margins between the two candidates, a Joe Biden victory, at least, seems likely. But based on the poll above, Biden would win because he’s “better than the other guy.” And winning because you’re better than the other guy isn’t winning at all. Not in the long-term. The test for Democrats is not whether they can win, but whether they can win the hearts of the voters.
You often hear Democrats say, “Democratic values are American values.” That appears to be true when looking at polling on hot button issues like gun control, climate change, and abortion, as a majority of Americans support Democratic policies such as universal background checks, climate protections, and a woman’s right to choose. Yet Democrats can’t actually get the majority of their modern progressive policy agenda passed or, in many cases, get elected to try.
One reason is that Democrats communicate on policy terms, not on principles. They need to do a better job talking to Americans about what values their policies represent. Values are what connect people. They’re what people care about when meeting a new friend. Science shows that numbers and policies are absorbed much better when couched in values-based storytelling. Right now, Democrats are listing off the ingredients instead of telling Americans what they’re baking.
In January of 2020, only 34% of Americans viewed the Democratic Party as united, while 65% viewed them as divided. Seeing no cohesive counter-narrative from Democrats, voters are left to piece together the party’s values themselves. Or worse, the other side fills in the narrative. Since Democrats aren’t telling their own story, Republicans are telling it for them. Democrats need to put together a hopeful, united party message that speaks to everyday Americans. Otherwise, they’ll face even more lost elections and more legislative losses in Congress as well.
Another consequence of poor messaging is that Democrats’ progressive bills continue to get stuck in the Republican-controlled Senate after they’ve left the Democratic-controlled House. The ineffective daily communication from leading Democrats continues to be disunified and mostly consists of negative responses to Republicans, instead of talking about the positives of what they’re working on. The only cohesive message is: “Republicans are bad.”
A staggering 87% of Americans say they aren’t happy with the way things are going in America today. Just 17% of people of all political affiliations say they are proud when thinking about the state of the country. This sets the perfect opportunity for Democrats to deliver a positive, values-based, party-wide message to Americans across the country.
Democrats need their own narrative, independent of Donald Trump and what they view as Republican failures. For Democrats, this election shouldn’t just be about voting out Donald Trump. It should be about replacing everything Trump stands for with a message about what America should be, not just what she shouldn’t be.
Right now, Democrats are trying to tell the story of David and Goliath without David. You can’t tell people a story about what’s wrong without telling them what’s right.
Democrats need to give Americans something to hope for by painting the picture of a more hopeful America. They need to show voters their party seeks to preserve the Constitution, to provide freedom for all, and to welcome any American who shares its values. Only then can they win the majority needed to pass the progressive policies most Americans are desperate for.
Riding on Trump’s failures to win in 2020 will not equal victory. Democrats need to wake up and once again connect with people, not percentages or policy proposals.
Otherwise, Will Rogers will still be right, and Democrats can’t really win.


Hidden among the latest Horizon Forbidden West update is a nice quality of life feature that lets you turn off the animation for collecting resources, which speeds up the flow of the gameplay greatly.

As reported by Eurogamer, it seems that this feature was added with the latest patch, but no mention of it was in the patch notes.
I'm so glad they added a pickup animation on/off toggle, it saves so much time and doesn't break exploration continuity or pace
Now I'll hoard a million berries 🍒 #PS5Share, #HorizonForbiddenWest pic.twitter.com/L9B5KbQnFh

Twitter user “VanishingGrace” spotted the toggle had been added when playing, saying: “I’m so glad they added a pickup animation on/off toggle, it saves so much time and doesn’t break exploration continuity or pace.”
The same user even showed off how to toggle the option. It’s in the “General” section of the menu, near the bottom of the options, where you can simply turn the “Pickup Animations” on or off.
Many games already offer this kind of thing, with Elden Ring being a recent example. You can ride around on your horse, Torrent, grabbing everything that isn’t nailed down. In Horizon Forbidden West, you can now do similar when on a mount with the animations turned off, to speed up collection.
It’s worth noting that anything found in a chest or that requires you to hold a button down will still need to be picked up in the original way, but items like plants, twigs, and even smaller pieces of loot that have been shot off machines can be picked up quickly now using this new feature.
Horizon Forbidden West patch 1.09 was released on March 30, and mostly brought fixes to individual quest lines that had bugs within them. One of the most requested fixes still hasn’t been actioned, however, and developer Guerrilla Games said that “The team continues to make tweaks to the game’s content with the goal to reduce visual shimmering.”
The rest of the patch was about user interface fixes, performance and stability, and issues that help completionists get 100 per cent in the notebook. Guerrilla Games continues to ask players to submit any issues via this support form, should they find anything wrong.
In other news Days Gone director Jeff Ross has joined the Tomb Raider and Marvel’s Avengers studio Crystal Dynamics, though he won’t say which project he’s working on.


WASHINGTON — The Biden administration warned on Friday that with President Vladimir V. Putin of Russia moving more troops toward the Ukrainian border, a full-scale invasion of Ukraine could start before the end of the Winter Olympics in Beijing, despite speculation that the Russians would wait to invade.
“We continue to see signs of Russian escalation, including new forces arriving at the Ukrainian border,” Jake Sullivan, the president’s national security adviser, told reporters on Friday. Mr. Sullivan said that an invasion could begin “during the Olympics,” which are scheduled to end next week, and warned that all Americans should leave Ukraine in the next 24 to 48 hours.
“We are ready either way,” Mr. Sullivan said. “Whatever happens next, the West is more united than it has been in years.”
U.S. intelligence officials had initially thought Mr. Putin was prepared to wait until the end of the Winter Olympics in Beijing to avoid antagonizing President Xi Jinping of China, a critical ally. In recent days, they say, the timeline began moving up, an acceleration that Biden administration officials began publicly acknowledging on Friday.
Antony J. Blinken, the secretary of state, told reporters at a news conference in Melbourne on Friday that “invasion could begin at any time. And, to be clear, that includes during the Olympics,” which are scheduled to end on Feb. 20. Mr. Blinken added that U.S. officials “continue to see very troubling signs of Russian escalation, including new forces arriving at the Ukrainian border.”
American officials have warned of a grim toll if Mr. Putin proceeds with a military invasion of Ukraine, including the potential deaths of 25,000 to 50,000 civilians, 5,000 to 25,000 members of the Ukrainian military and 3,000 to 10,000 members of the Russian military. On Friday, Mr. Sullivan said that officials believed that an attack would likely start with missile and aerial attacks, and continue with a ground invasion.
“Russia could choose in very short order to commence a major military action against Ukraine,” Mr. Sullivan said, but added that officials could not be sure exactly when, or if, Mr. Putin may decide to invade.
“The risk is now high enough and the threat is now immediate enough that this is what prudence demands,” he said. “We believe he very well may give the final go order,” he added, “but we are not standing here before you today saying the order has been given.”
The United States and many other countries have issued a series of increasingly urgent calls for their citizens to leave Ukraine.
On Thursday evening, President Biden told Lester Holt of NBC News that Americans should leave Ukraine immediately, following a State Department advisory that “military action may commence at any time and without warning,” as it reissued an advisory urging Americans not to travel to Ukraine with its starkest language yet.
“We’re dealing with one of the largest armies in the world,” Mr. Biden said. “This is a very different situation, and things could go crazy quickly.”
Mr. Sullivan said on Friday that he expected the president to soon meet with Mr. Putin by phone.
The White House would not say if it would engage American troops to evacuate any Americans left in Ukraine should Russia invade. Mr. Sullivan urged Americans who needed assistance to investigate “commercial” options, and to contact the United States embassy.
Earlier Friday, Mr. Biden met by phone with other trans-Atlantic leaders in a call that included Chancellor Olaf Scholz of Germany; Prime Ministers Boris Johnson of Britain, Mario Draghi of Italy and Justin Trudeau of Canada; and Presidents Emmanuel Macron of France, Andrzej Duda of Poland, Klaus Iohannis of Romania, Ursula von der Leyen of the European Commission and Charles Michel of the European Council; and the NATO secretary general, Jens Stoltenberg.
The leaders met for about 80 minutes, in a call that was initially supposed to be centered around “diplomacy and deterrence,” the White House said.
The call came as Russia builds up its forces around Ukraine — in Belarus, western Russia and Crimea, the territory Russia seized from Ukraine in 2014 — in what U.S. and NATO leaders have said appears to be preparation for an invasion.
Ukraine said on Friday that Russian-backed separatists were holding military exercises in the slice of eastern Ukraine they control, at the same time that Russia holds exercises near Ukraine.

Does SCD work for everyone?
The truth of the matter is that SCD does not work for every single person that trys it. But most people that do it correctly notice signifigant improvements in their condition while on it. It has been said that it can work for 80% of people who try it, I can't verify that figure as it is impossible to know who actually followed the diet 100% etc. If you are looking for facts Dr Wolfgang Lutz indicates in his book Life without Bread has documented a controlled study in which 67 crohn's disease patients followed a low carb diet. After 1.5 years 80% were symptom free, 70% were symptom free after 6 months.That is a pretty kick ass number!!! Which means you have atleast an 80% chance of regaining your health.
Since IBD's are not single dimensional disease different foods may be tolerated by one and not another so therefore a different approach would also have to be taken. This is one reason SCD lacks medical backing because every person is different so a different approach must be taken. Also if studies were done you would have to monitor each subject every hour every day as the uttmost adhearance is required in order to see great results. At first I was dwelling on lack of medical evidence but overlook this as you will find most of the things that can heal you have no clinical proof. Believe me I have tried things which are not so called FDA approved and they changed my life. Just look for other people who have tried the treatment at hand and then make the decision based on that and make sure to follow your gut feeling.
Most people do not do the diet correctly and give up far too quickly if they do not see immediate results. I speak from experience when I say that I screwed up constantly on this diet right until my 7th month in yet I still stuck with it and am so glad I did. This diet is a lot of problem solving which will frustrate you greatly at times but if you do your research, listen to your body, etc you will get your health back one way or another.

"The crucial thing, of course, is that vendors are working on this technology now, ensuring it will be in place in time for the emergence of LTE networks."
For me, the crucial thing is that there will already be a second-hand market for LTE devices by the time it rolls out in this country. This will mean a wider-spread uptake at the start, helping to lower prices, and get the technology established quickly.

Oakland County Commissioner Eric Coleman, a Democrat, is one of five county commissioners attending the Jan. 20 inauguration of President George W. Bush.
He doesn't know how many Democrats actually will be attending the festivities for the Republican president, but he's pretty sure he'll be outnumbered.
Coleman is second vice president of the National Association of Counties, a non-partisan organization of counties throughout the country.
In that capacity, he'll be hosting an inaugural brunch.
"It's not a Democrat or Republican thing," said Coleman, who actively worked to promote Democrat John Kerry for the White House.
Oakland County narrowly voted for Kerry over Bush and Michigan was also one of the states that backed the Democrat.
"He's the president of all of us," Coleman said of Bush. "I get along with the Republicans. The organization by and large is more Republican than Democrats. I hope some of my friends on my side of the aisle understand that."
Also attending the inauguration are commissioners Bill Bullard, R-Highland Township, Greg Jamian, R-Bloomfield Hills, Eileen Kowall, R-White Lake Township, and Mike Rogers, R-Farmington Hills.
