At least if you’re wanting to continue to grow and develop as a leader, that is.Many of you have heard me say something like this a time or twelve, but one of the very first things I typically ask folks who are interviewing for or thinking about putting in for their first management position is…“What are you already currently doing to lead on your current team?” continue reading »
Rural tourism Kezele “I am extremely proud of my family and myself that we received an international award for a project we have been developing together for almost 20 years. Our project was chosen not as a special form of tourism, but in general as one of the most creative tourism projects based on identity. In our case, it is the identity of the Croatian village, the region of Moslavina and the heritage we have preserved. We are particularly pleased that the project was selected at the level of the whole of Southeast Europe, which in this selection included the area from Italy and Austria in the west to Greece and Turkey in the east. An impartial jury made up of architects, designers and tourism experts covered this part of Europe and made an objective selection of the best without lobbying and politics. A way of working that is unknown within domestic institutions. This award is a confirmation to us that our work is relevant at the international level and an incentive to think further about the development of our concept and the destination in which we find ourselves.”, Said the winner of the” Big SEE “award in the category” Creative story and identity as experience “Janko Kezele from Rural tourism Kezele. In the evening, an event called “Design Room” was held where renowned chefs presented the specialties of their countries. The “Big SEE” project brings together individuals, institutions and entrepreneurs from Albania, Austria, Bulgaria, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Cyprus, the Czech Republic, Greece, Croatia, Italy, Hungary, Kosovo, Northern Macedonia, the Republic of Moldova, Montenegro, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Serbia and Turkey, home to over 340 million people. The aim of the conference was to establish a dialogue between tourism service providers, investors, architects and designers in order to encourage the development of local communities in order to transform them into innovative and sustainable tourist destinations. Already the 17th “Month of Design” in Ljubljana brought together the best architects and other individuals from 19 countries in Southeast Europe. During the “Creative Tourism” conference, held on October 17, the “Big SEE” awards were presented, including several winners from Croatia.

We are also proud that the whole project, from the idea, design, architecture, execution of works, etc., is a 100% Croatian product. The magnet and the primary motive for coming are of course the Plitvice Lakes National Park, but certainly as we have to show our guests much more, from Rastoke, zipline, paintball, Deer Valley, Barač Cave… various quality additional facilities so guests can definitely spend 4 to 5 days, without being bored”, He said, adding that they are happy to have attracted domestic guests, who are third in the number of arrivals and overnight stays.

Some scientists said the episode had set back efforts to determine whether hydroxychloroquine was an effective or risky treatment for COVID-19, as some other trials around the world were also halted following the WHO’s initial decision to pause.”It’s really impacted quite negatively the sort of studies that would be able to say if there is a benefit or harm,” Will Schilling told Reuters. He is co-lead on the UK COPCOV study which was paused last week, just days after its launch.”At the moment, we don’t really know,” Schilling said. “That’s why these studies are needed, and now they’ve been slightly waylaid by all of this.”Scientists acknowledge, though, that studies are being conducted at break-neck speed while garnering unprecedented levels of attention that could give findings unwarranted weight.The president’s taking itHydroxychloroquine has made global headlines in large part because of its promotion by Trump, who said in March it could be a game-changer and last month revealed he was taking it himself, even after the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) had advised that its efficacy and safety were unproven.In the absence of clear scientific evidence, some authorities and consumers are buying up stocks of the drug in case it turns out to be effective. Britain, for example, is spending millions of pounds bulk-buying tablets.Hydroxychloroquine was shown in laboratory experiments earlier this year to be able to block the SARS-CoV-2 virus that causes COVID-19, but this effect has not been replicated in rigorous trials in people.A separate study by University of Minnesota scientists of the potential preventative effect of hydroxychloroquine against the new coronavirus found it did not protect people who had been given it after being exposed to COVID-19.Here again, though, the waters have been muddied. The New England Journal of Medicine, which published the research on Wednesday, noted in an editorial, that there were limits to the scope of the study.The University of Minnesota study also was limited in the scenario it tested, said Richard Chaisson, a Johns Hopkins researcher who is running a separate trial of the drug to determine whether it is effective in treating patients with moderate to severe versions of COVID-19.There is still a need for robust studies looking at whether it might work in low doses before or after exposure, as well as against mild cases, moderate cases, hospitalized patients and seriously ill ones, he added.Who’s knock-on effectsThe WHO decision to halt its trials last week had knock-on effects across the drug industry and medical profession.French drugmaker Sanofi temporarily stopped enrolling recruits to its own study and pulled supplies of the drug for treatment. The UK COPCOV trial, aimed at establishing if hydroxychloroquine can prevent healthcare workers from contracting COVID-19, hit pause just a week after its launch.Those studies are yet to resume.Several European countries also have stopped using the drug for treating some COVID-19 patients.Some trials have, however, continued despite the WHO’s move.Novartis has not changed course with its study and the UK Recovery trial paused only briefly before moving ahead after safety checks. It is still enrolling patients and has signed up 4,500 recruits so far – 1,500 patients who are on the drug and around 3,000 who aren’t.In short, the jury’s still out on hydroxychloroquine for COVID-19, according to Landray at Recovery.”People can quote data, people can quote experts, but there is continuing huge uncertainty,” he said. Scientists are resuming COVID-19 trials of the now world-famous drug hydroxychloroquine, as confusion continues to reign about the anti-malarial hailed by US President Donald Trump as a potential “game-changer” in fighting the pandemic.The renewed research push follows widespread criticism of the quality of data in a study that on Thursday was retracted. The article, originally published in influential medical journal The Lancet, had found high risks associated with the treatment.The World Health Organization, which last week paused trials when The Lancet study showed the drug was tied to an increased risk of death in hospitalized patients, said on Wednesday it was ready to resume trials. The WHO’s change of mind is “a wise decision”, according to Martin Landray, co-lead scientist on the Recovery trial, the world’s largest research project into existing drugs that might be repurposed to treat COVID-19 patients.”What all this episode really reflects is that without randomized trials, there is huge uncertainty,” said Landray, a professor of medicine and epidemiology at Oxford university.Randomized studies are the gold standard in research, randomly assigning a treatment to one group of people and a dummy to another group so that the two can be compared. The Lancet study was a “retrospective observational” study, using a data set from an analytics firm, to see what effects the drug had had on some COVID-19 patients, compared to those who did not get it.The WHO’s about-face came after nearly 150 doctors signed a letter to the Lancet outlining concerns about the data of the observational study published on May 22. On Thursday three of the study’s authors retracted it, saying the company holding the data would not release it for an independent review. Topics :

SAN DIEGO, Oct 23, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) – Turning Point Therapeutics, Inc. (NASDAQ: TPTX), a precision oncology company developing next-generation therapies targeting genetic factors in cancer, announced today hui presentation of early clinical data from the ongoing CARE Phase 1/2 study in pediatric and young adult patients with advanced solid tumors harboring ALK, ROS1 Where NTRK modifications. These data are presented today at the 53rd Virtual Congress of the International Society of Pediatric Oncology (SIOP) which is being held October 21-24.
âThese early data on repotrectinib demonstrate encouraging clinical activity in this pediatric patient population,â said Mohammad Hirmand, MD, medical director. âPatient recruitment continues in the Phase 1/2 CARE study, and we look forward to advancing the development of repotrectinib in this patient population. “
Preliminary data from the phase 1/2 CARE study
The primary objective of the phase 1 dose escalation portion of the study is to assess the safety and tolerability and to determine the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) of repotrectinib in pediatric patients younger than 12 years. The main objective of the phase 2 part of the study is to determine the anti-tumor activity of repotrectinib in pediatric patients and young adults under 25 years of age. Repotrectinib is given as a capsule or suspension at a dosage based on weight in patients less than 12 years of age. Patients aged 12 to 25 years can enroll directly in the phase 2 part of the study with a dose of repotrectinib of 160 mg once daily for the first 14 days and may increase to 160 mg BID thereafter. .
The first phase 1/2 CARE dataset uses a data cut-off date of August 2, 2021. Ten patients were treated at two dose levels. The safety analysis includes the ten patients treated and the preliminary efficacy analysis includes eight evaluable patients. Patients included in the efficacy analysis had measurable disease at inclusion and at least one evaluable analysis after inclusion. Assessment of response was performed by physician and according to RECIST v1.1 or RANO for CNS tumors. Responses were confirmed by subsequent analysis at least 28 days later.
The results were reported in a pre-recorded presentation by Steven G. Dubois, MD, associate professor of pediatrics, Harvard Medical School available Oct. 23 at 9:12 a.m. ET on the meeting website.
Preliminary safety analysis (n = 10) and pharmacokinetic analysis
Repotrectinib was generally well tolerated.
The most frequently reported treatment-related adverse events (TREs) were anemia (n = 5) and fatigue (n = 5). Among the anemic patients, three had a history of anemia at baseline.
The vertigo (n = 4) was grade 1 or 2 and none led to discontinuation of treatment.
No patient discontinued treatment for reasons other than disease progression and no patient experienced an AEFI leading to dose reduction.
No dose limiting toxicity was reported.
Preliminary pharmacokinetic data indicated that repotrectinib exposure in different age groups was comparable to adult exposure at steady state.
Preliminary efficacy analysis (n = 8)
Eight patients were evaluable for efficacy, including four TKI-naÃ¯ve patients and four TKI-pretreated patients. TKI-naÃ¯ve patients included those with NTRK-amplified anaplastic ependymoma (n = 1), NTRK fusion glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) / high-grade glioma (n = 1), NTRK fusion sarcoma (n = 1 ) and an inflammatory fusion ROS1 myofibroblastic tumor (IMT) (n = 1). TKI-pretreated patients included those with high-grade NTRK / glioma fusion GBM (n = 2), NTRK fusion mesoblastic nephroma (n = 1), and NTRK fusion sarcoma (n = 1).
Three TKI naive patients (2 solid NTRK fusion tumors; 1 ROS1 fusion IMT) had confirmed responses. One of the three responder patients had a high-grade NTRK / glioma fusion GBM, had previously been treated with tumor resection, whole brain radiation therapy and multi-agent chemotherapy, and achieved a complete response (CR) and remained in response for more than 3.8 months from the data deadline. The other two confirmed responders remained in response with a duration of response of 7.3+ and 12.1+ months, respectively.
Of the four TKI-pretreated patients, one patient with NTRK fusion sarcoma had a better stable disease response.
Phase 1 dose finding of the study is underway in pediatric patients under 12 years of age to confirm pediatric RP2D. The Phase 2 part of the study is underway for patients aged 12 to 25 years.
Turning Point also announced the publication of preclinical data for repotrectinib in neuroblastoma, the most common pediatric extracranial solid tumor, in the American Association of Cancer Research peer-reviewed journal, Molecular cancer therapy. The preclinical studies described in the publication titled “Translational Strategies for Repotrectinib in Neuroblastoma” show that repotrectinib inhibits tumor growth and prolongs survival in patient-derived neuroblastoma xenograft models. Additionally, studies have indicated that combining repotrectinib with chemotherapy may be a promising treatment paradigm for patients with neuroblastoma.

“And when I could no longer look,
I blest His grace that gave and took,
That laid my goods now in the dust.
Yea, so it was, and so ’twas just.
It was his own; it was not mine.
Far be it that I should repine.”
– Anne Bradstreet, “Upon the Burning of Our House July 10th, 1666”
One of the greatest dangers of any generation is to see those who came before as one-dimensional characters with little to nothing to offer in the way of understanding of modern life. For instance, it is assumed by many that the Puritans who founded Massachusetts were a grim, dour lot devoted to spreading their strict, religious views across society. To some extent, this is true, but of course, not all Puritans were the same; there were outliers who made their own way within their culture and yet remained true to their own sense of self.
Anne Bradstreet and her husband, Simon, were two of these people. Anne Bradstreet was born into an unusual family that, in the early years of the 17th century, believed in educating daughters as well as sons. She then moved to the American wilderness as a young bride and proceeded to produce children and poetry at nearly equal speed in the years that followed. Historian Theodore Stanton observed, “The most of her poems were produced between 1630 and 1642, that is, before she was thirty years old; and during these years she had neither leisure, nor elegant surroundings, nor freedom from anxious thoughts, nor even abounding health. Somehow, during her busy lifetime, she contrived to put upon record compositions numerous enough to fill a royal octavo volume of 400 pages, – compositions which entice and reward our reading of them, two hundred years after she lived.”
Anne also had the dubious honor of being the daughter of one governor of Massachusetts colony, the wife of another, and the sister of a third. This repeatedly put her in a unique position to shape, no matter how subtly, the culture of the early colony, and New England’s early openness to at least basic education stems in part from her influence. On top of all this, she was the first published poet from the North American colonies, beating out the men who would follow her by a number of years.

Rapper Kanye West went another Twitter rant early Wednesday in which he claimed he’d been trying to divorce Kim Kardashian.
West later deleted the tweet, according to a report published by Page Six.
In a string of now deleted tweets, Kanye West says Kim Kardashian cheated on him with Meek Mill, he has been trying to get a divorce from her for a year, says someone killed Michael Jackson, and alleges Drake and Larsa Pippen are involved in some type of nefarious activity. pic.twitter.com/Xp1J9I9LO0
— Mike Coudrey (@MichaelCoudrey) July 22, 2020
“I been trying to get divorced since Kim met with Meek at the Warldolf [sic] for ‘prison reform,'” Kanye wrote in the twitter rant.
The “Stronger” rapper also called his mother-in-law “Kris Jong-Un” in the same tweet. (RELATED: Kanye West Tweets Out Amazing Photoshopped Picture Of Mount Rushmore Amid Conflicting Reports On His Presidential Run)
Kanye’s twitter rants Wednesday followed another rant that occurred Monday. As previously reported, Kanye accused Kardashian and Kris Jenner of flying a doctor out to Wyoming to try to “lock” the rapper up.
Kardashian took to Instagram on Wednesday to address Kanye’s recent rants, Page Six reported.
Kim Kardashian’s statement just posted to her Instagram stories is well worth reading. pic.twitter.com/XV9mIZvTlt

“As many of you know, Kanye has bi-polar disorder. Anyone who has this or has a loved one in their life who does, knows how incredibly complicated and painful it is to understand,” Kardashian wrote on her Insta stories. “I’ve never spoken publicly about how this has affected us at home because I am very protective of our children and Kanye’s right to privacy when it comes to his health. But today, I feel like I should comment on it because of the stigma and misconceptions about mental health.”
“People who are unaware or far removed from this experience can be judgmental and not understand that the individual themselves have to engage in the process of getting help no matter how hard family and friends try,” she added.
Kardashian continued by defending Kanye and saying the rapper is often misunderstood.
“He is a brilliant but complicated person who on top of the pressures of being an artist and a black man, who experienced the painful loss of his mother, and has to deal with the pressure and isolation that is heightened by his bi-polar disorder,” she said. “Those who are close with Kanye know his heart and understand his words do not align with his intentions.”

On March 31, 2023, a Twitter post claimed that 2016 presidential candidate Hillary Clinton had replied to former President Donald Trump on his social platform Truth Social after hush-money indictment charges were filed against him the day before. Trump was indicted in connection with payments made before the 2016 election to pornographic film actress Stormy Daniels.
But the post was fake and wasn't from Clinton.
"Trump is in rare form today," twitter user @tonyposnanski tweeted. Attached to the post was a screenshot that claimed Clinton had replied, "He is on the beach reading your indictment" to Trump posting "WHERE'S HUNTER?"
Trump is in rare form today. pic.twitter.com/eIdJNp8DBS
— Tony Posnanski (@tonyposnanski) March 31, 2023
We reached out to the original poster, who responded, "I am praying you are trolling me and do not actually work for Snopes." After we reached out, he posted that he hated "everything about this place" and circled the username of the Clinton Truth Social "post" — @BIGJUICYMAGADONG8756839 — to signal it wasn't really her.
We found that both posts are indeed on Truth Social, but the reply from Clinton was fake. She doesn't have an account on the platform. Truth Social is an alternative to mainstream social media platforms like Facebook and Twitter, and many politicians don't have active Truth Social accounts.
All of Clinton's official social media accounts use her first and last name as the username. For example, her Twitter username is @HillaryClinton. The username of the account that replied to Trump was a far cry from her name.
The account only had 57 followers at the time of publication. The last time it posted a "Truth" that wasn't a reply was April 2022. Clinton's official social media accounts all have millions of followers, and have also all updated within the last month.
The Clinton Truth Social account seemed to be a joke account that mainly replies to Trump. For example, a reply to one of Trump's posts on March 18 said, "That's what you get for fucking around and finding out, fuckface." Other replies that have been posted recently to the account are in the same vein.
The biggest piece of evidence that this was a fake post? The original poster publicly admitted it. In a Twitter reply posted before we reached out, the account posted, "I'm just thankful it [the name] wasn't taken" when responding to someone who commented about the username.
We previously fact-checked other claims related to Trump's indictment, including that it had actually happened on March 30.

brother of support = helper, one of the five whom Josiah sent to consult the prophetess Huldah in connection with the discovery of the book of the law (2 Kings 22:12-14; 2 Chr. 34:20). He was the son of Shaphan, the royal secretary, and the father of Gedaliah, governor of Judea after the destruction of Jerusalem by the Babylonians (2 Kings 25:22; Jer. 40:5-16; 43:6). On one occasion he protected Jeremiah against the fury of Jehoiakim (Jer. 26:24). It was in the chamber of another son (Germariah) of Shaphan that Baruch read in the ears of all the people Jeremiah's roll.
Later on Shaphan's son ahikam protected Jeremiah when his life was in imminent danger.
Doubtless other princes associated themselves with ahikam in his friendly action on behalf of the prophet.
Jeremiah's only real assurance of safety lay in the personal protection extended to him by ahikam ben Shaphan.
The prophet had to thank the protection of ahikam, a son of the scribe Zaphan (p. 213), that he escaped the anger of the king.
Gemariah was the brother of ahikam, the protector of the prophet.
His most powerful protector was ahikam, the son of Shaphan, a member of a family of the utmost distinction.
He appointed Gedaliah, the son of ahikam, the son of Shaphan, his satrap (pakd) over the poor remnant who were left in the land.
Through the exertions of his friends, and especially of ahikam, Jeremiah was set free for the time.

The Coachella Valley Music Festival seems to be making its name now on reuniting at least one defunct band every year for the event, and this year's winner is Rage Against the Machine. It's yet another move that reads weirdly if you take the band's politics at its word.
Rage's original catalog consists of a classic debut album, a mediocre follow-up (Evil Empire's second half is nothing but filler), and a very good third one. There is also Renegades, a curio of a cover album consisting of musical re-writes for many of the tunes, but it's not bad on its own, and worth it alone if the band's fans decided to look into EPMD or Eric B. and Rakim based on absolutely shaking versions of "I'm Housin'" or "Microphone Fiend" (never mind terrific if by-the-book readings of Minor Threat's "In My Eyes" or the MC5's "Kick Out the Jams.")
The problem with Rage is that it was unable to reconcile its leftist politics with its actions in the music business, much like it couldn't reconcile Zack de la Rocha's hardcore/hip-hop background with the pure rock and roll backbeat of drummer Brad Wilk, bass player Tim Commerford, and mad genius guitarist Tom Morello (three original albums in nearly a decade of existence speaks to this). The "belly of the beast" argument can only be repeated so many times, and when your fans are singing "Fuck you, I won't do what you tell me," with you, it's worth questioning whether the values are passing on or simply floating over.
De la Rocha's post-RATM career has been next to nil as far as anyone can tell, and the instrumental end has been cranking out serviceable albums with Chris Cornell as Audioslave. (The three Audioslave records aren't bad, but with the musical pedigree, I expected more, and I bet many others did too.) So, if the Goldenvoice organizers throw a ton of stupid-ass money for a one-off, any fool will take it. But any sloganeering the band does on a mass level during the show will ring hollow, much like it did during the later part of its short career.
"And every gimmick-hungry yob digging gold from rock and roll
Will take the mic to say that he'll die before he's sold.
But I believe in this, and it's been tested by research
That he who fucks nuns will later join the church."

KlebebandeTape is the new Paint!
Tape instead of ink, cutter instead of brush and walls instead of paper. With these extraordinary means Klebebande creates impressive works.
The Berlin artist collective Klebebande has devoted a very special art form: the tape art. Who runs with open eyes through German cities like Berlin, Hamburg and Munich will find the unique and surprisingly versatile work of Bruno BeezeBoe Kolberg, Bodo Höbing and Nikolaj NkoBu Bultmann on columns, house walls and in shopping malls. In addition, Klebebande was nominated for the prize Young Artist of the Neue Nationalgalerie in Berlin and participated in exhibitions in France, Russia and Turkey.
The imagery of the artist is made up of urban views, architectural structures, geometric shapes and motifs in between repeatedly between man and nature. With childish curiosity and passion for their material Bruno, Bodo and Nikolaj explore the creative possibilities of the adhesive tape. Perseverance and attention to detail let spectacular works of art arise.
For Pablo & Paul Klebebande created medium- and large-scale works on wood and glass. On request, individual room concepts can be designed.

Since its launch in 1967, Pomellato has been championing feminine empowerment and freedom, with creations and campaigns starring strong personalities such as actress Jane Fonda. Earlier this year, the Italian maison unveiled its Free Gems manifesto, reaffirming its intention to set gems in a style that shows off their individual qualities.
The Milanese brand’s most iconic design, the Nudo ring, manifests this ethos via its special cut and setting technique. “Nudo defines liberty in the way that the gemstone is devoid of settings and prongs,” says Pomellato creative director Vincenzo Castaldo. The solitaire ring, centering a polished gemstone with 57 facets, is instantly recognizable thanks to its distinctive floating effect, which it achieves through a
fixing system concealed inside the collet at the stone’s base.
Some of Pomellato’s most exclusive creations feature rough stones, such as aquamarine, delicately encased in a diamond-studded net that lets the color proudly stand out.
We chose a range of evocative gems in unusual colors that are vibrant and express strong emotions.
“We have created one-of-a-kind high-jewelry pieces using rough gemstones precisely because they have their own natural beauty and character,” explains Pomellato gem master Stefano Cortecci. “They are a pure expression of independence.”
The same free spirit has inspired the selection of vividly-hued stones such as indicolite, tanzanite, tourmaline and spinel. “In the Ode to Milan collection, we chose a range of evocative gems in unusual colors that are vibrant and express strong emotions,” says Cortecci.
Pomellato’s daring color combinations are a brand statement, he emphasizes — “the chromatic games that express our true and unconventional creative freedom.”

Registering an approximate value of US$19 Bn in the year 2021, global sports technology market may possibly see doubled growth in revenue toward the end of the year 2027.
Increasing Boom Around Predictive Analytics to Favour Sports Technology Market Growth
With technological advancements, analytics have been gaining significant attention since past decade. Their adoption in the sports domain has transformed the sector by providing different platforms such as esports, content platforms, live streaming, and smart stadiums among other engagement technologies. Increasing competitiveness backed with advancements in sports has pushed organizations and players to use sports analytics. By adopting such analytics, critical solutions and key observations can be obtained that can be further leveraged to comprehend data, improve performance, and engage customers and fans more efficiently. Increasing demand for several advanced technologies such as AI, IoT, big data analytics, ML, advanced wireless connectivity, and computer vision is expected to drive the growth of the sports technology market.
Moreover, AI-enabled enabled predictive analytics can be used to monitor, improve, and maintain fitness and overall health of athletes. With the support of AI, detection of patterns in strategies, tactics, and weaknesses can become possible. Apart from health monitoring of athletes and pattern identification, the AI-powered analytics platform can be used to decipher huge volumes of data thus supporting in making accurate predictions. In addition, advancements in the predictive analytics field have resulted in the development of augmented and virtual reality models that can provide performance assessments of players, overall player analysis, past player record assessment and computation on the possibilities apropos to win or loss scenarios. In this backdrop, as predictive analytics gain traction, the prospects of sports technology market continue to remain strong, thus driving growth.
Wearable Technology in Sports to Score and Present Numerous Opportunities for Sports Technology Market
As technology progresses, industries are overwhelmed with the introduction of new innovations and developments. Wearable technology is one such development that has re-shaped the sports industry. By using wearable technology in sports, athlete training along with their performance can be improved drastically. Wearables can be used to monitor all critical aspects of athletes including vitals, injury recovery rate, in-game performance and body performance and fatigue during and after training. That said, this technology has been revolutionizing the sports sector by reducing potential risks associated with injuries such as damaged tendons, concussion, and exhaustion. With advances in wearable technology, apart from enhancing sporting performance, team administrators, trainers and coaches can reduce sports related sickness. For instance, according to OHIO University, in 2020, wearables developed by Catapult were used by athletes. Approximately 9500 professional athletes on 500 teams in 25 countries and 35 sports used these GPS sport trackers to monitor injuries and enhance team and personal performance simultaneously.
Technology organisations are making massive strides by marketing wearable devices for athletes. Companies such as Viperpod, Zephyr Technology, Catapult, miCoach, and Smartlife are transforming the way coaches make decisions, the way sports could be played and also providing real-time analytics on health, performance and safety of athletes. Being an innovative and developing technological niche, wearable sports technology has been witnessing an upswing since its advent in 2009. With availability of a wide range of wearable devices and their efficacy in reducing athlete injuries alongside monitoring performance, the sports technology market is likely to witness an opportunistic global scenario in the coming years.
North America Likely to Slate Dominance in Global Sports Technology Market
The use of different sports technologies across developed nations in North America has been on an upswing backed by several functional and macro specific aspects. The region has remained a major hub for technology companies owing to superior infrastructure, growing inclination towards adoption of technology in various fields and stable economic growth. Higher investments in the development of technology and associated devices have transformed the sports industry in North America. This has also encouraged new start-ups to establish their base in the region. As of 2022, around 2700 sports tech start-ups are present in the United States alone providing different solutions such as analytics, smart stadiums, and wearables. Robust economic backbone, increasing research and development activities and favourable government support have attracted new companies in the region, thus contributing towards growth of the sports technology market in North America.
Sports Technology Market: Competition Landscape
Major players in the sports technology market have remained focused on entering partnerships to consolidate and strengthen their position in the market and acquire new customer base. Some of the major players in sports technology market include IBM, CJ Corporation, Fitbit, Activision Blizzard, Garmin, Fujitsu, Ericsson, SAP, Cisco, Oracle, Panasonic, Tencent, Apple, Samsung, and Catapult Sports.

Considering the volatility of business today, traditional approaches to strategizing a game plan can be unfruitful if not detrimental. True ambiguity is no way to determine a forecast. A myriad of predetermined factors must be accounted for such as the degree of risk involved, the magnitude of circumstances, as well as conditions or consequences that are not known or unpredictable. To circumvent binary views that cast uncertainty, the application of market research intelligence to strategically posture, move, and enable actionable outcomes is necessary.View Methodology

Thursday was Cinco De Mayo. If you don’t know what cinco de mayo is, obviously it means the “fifth of May”. The date is celebrated in remembrance of the Mexican Army’s victory over France on May 5, 1862 at the Battle of Puebla. A lot of people know that you’re supposed to drink and eat tacos this day, but never know why exactly it’s celebrated. So, I thought I’d throw that fun fact in there. Kevin and I thought we’d make some tacos and some Mexican street corn. It was yummy.
I started off by prepping some cilantro, garlic, lime and serrano peppers. You’re gonna use this in several things for this meal.
Prepare one whole boneless, skinless chicken breast with the fat trimmed. Season it with kosher salt, pepper, white pepper, cayenne, cumin and ancho chile powder.
On a hot grill pan with oil, sear the chicken breasts for about 6 minutes on each side. Using all those spices will give it a beautiful and flavorful char.
Set chicken aside when done. You will be slicing it thinly.
In a small hot pan with a tiny pat of butter. Prepare as many corn tortillas as you need. I like my tortillas to brown a bit.
Mexican Style Elote
Preheat your oven to 350°F Set the corn on the cobs straight onto your oven rack with the husks still attached. Bake for 30 minutes.
In the mean time, freshly grate some cotija cheese. Cotija is a Mexican-style cheese named after the town of Cotija in Michoacán. This hard, crumbly is made from cow’s milk. Texture is a lot like parmesan, but a little saltier in flavor. Perfect for street corn.
After your 30 minutes, your corn should be nice and soft and easy to eat.
When still warm spread on butter, kosher salt and pepper, mayonnaise as a binder, fresh squeezed lime juice, the grated cotija cheese, chili powder, paprika and your fresh minced cilantro.
Kevin made canned black beans on the side during all of this, seasoned them with kosher salt, pepper, minced garlic, lime and cilantro. When everything was done, we topped the tacos with sour cream. I garnished mine with the serranos and cilantro. Next we chowed down on it. Great way to celebrate Cinco De Mayo. Super quick and super easy meal!

Stepladder to Hindsight is about a fascinating man who has reached a turning point in his life and looks back. In this work, renowned academic and life-writer Richard Freadman turns the pen on himself, producing an immensely compelling narrative of his life.
Elegant and richly self-aware, Stepladder to Hindsight gives us unbridled access to a complex life and a unique mind. Within these pages you will find humour and tragedy, peppered with astute literary commentary and philosophical musings. This ‘almost memoir’ is fiercely intelligent and so addictively personal that it is hard to put down.
“…an eloquent book, a unique combination of compelling storytelling, searching reflection, with an extraordinary range of mood and style – an original take on the art of life writing.”
“…an engaging volume of essays, intimately and sympathetically revealing, covers a wide range of literary and (in connection with his reading difficulties and depression) medical learning, offered in an eminently readable, eloquent and smoothly flowing fluid way.”
– Serge Liberman, OAM
Read the review by Eugene Stelzig, Distinguished Teaching Professor of English Emeritus, SUNY Geneseo
About the author: Richard Freadman was educated at Brandeis University and the University of Oxford. Now Emeritus Professor of English at La Trobe University, he was the Founding Director of the Unit for Studies in Biography and Autobiography there and an international authority on autobiography, biography and other forms of ‘life writing’. A Fellow of the Australian Academy of the Humanities, he now works as a volunteer making life writing available to people in dementia care, palliative care and cancer remission settings. He writes and lectures on illness narrative, and continues to write autobiography and short fiction. He is married with three children and currently divides his time between Melbourne and Florida, where his wife Diane is currently working in the corporate world. In Florida he has become an aficionado of alligators, and they, it seems to him, astonished observers of him.


ROME (Reuters) - The deputy prime minister of a new Italian government should be a member of the Democratic Party (PD), its deputy leader Andrea Orlando said on Wednesday, potentially re-igniting tensions in talks with the ruling 5-Star Movement.
The two parties are negotiating the formation of a new government after the previous coalition between 5-Star and the far-right League party collapsed last week.
The reinstatement of outgoing Prime Minister Giuseppe Conte has been a sticking point, insisted on by 5-Star but resisted by the PD. Now the PD is annoyed because it says 5-Star leader Luigi Di Maio wants the job of deputy prime minister despite their opposition.
“Di Maio is not a problem. The problem is that if there is a premier from the 5-Star it is fair that his deputy is from the PD,” Orlando said on Twitter.

Sometimes I get sad
I've been drinking a lot of coffee lately. I drink coffee as a treat; I don't brew it at home. It makes me feel good to have an extra $2 to throw away. And I like to feel like I'm going to be awake for a few hours. But, I've been going from maybe a cup a week, to 2 or 3 a week. And I'd drink more if I could. Coffee is my drug of choice.
I've been axious lately. Anxious about everything. My husband's been dealing with some concerning health issues. Just in the testing phase right now, but it makes me a little nervous. Really nervous, actually. He doesn't even need to mention it, but
when something goes on in his body, he does this little listening thing with his head, his hand goes to his pulse and I know something's going on. I just wish I knew a) how serious it was b) how to help relieve the discomfort of his body and c) ease his mind. I just keep waiting for the other shoe to fall and having to get him to the hospital right away. I hate the not knowing.
I'm pretty well always on the brink of tears. Anything can put me over the edge. Seeing someone on the street. Hearing a sad song. Seeing a bird on a branch. Earlier last week on the way home from work, I did cry, the thoughts just got out of hand. What if my husband dies? What if I get sick? What if the pandemic comes to our city? What will I do and how will I have the strength to cope. Sitting by myself on the subway, crying for no reason other than vague discomfort - what a pathetic sight I must have been.
And I'm exhausted. I feel like I could sleep all the time. In fact, the idea of being in bed with the covers pulled up over my eyes is extremely appealing. Every little job, from making dinner to writing emails to talking to the landlord, seem insurmountable.
The good news, is an incredible closeness I feel with my husband. Earlier in our journey through this bog of stress, I was closing off to him. That's stopped and I just feel so wonderfully close to him, despite all this muck we're trudging through.
Nevertheless, I don't really talk about it much with him. My husband, obviously, is dealing with things too. His own health. His concerns for the future. His not sleeping well. I feel like I need to be the strong one. At least sometimes. I'm not sure if I can do it...

Talented musician and Old Haileyburian Will O’Brien has been awarded a prestigious Choral Scholarship by St John’s College at the University of Cambridge.
Will, who left Haileybury last summer after achieving an A* and two A's at A Level, will study music at St John’s College from October 2017.
St John’s is one of the oldest and largest colleges in Cambridge and has a world-famous choir. The choir members sing daily in the College’s chapel, perform at a variety of concerts and events and tour internationally. The choir also records its services for members of the public to listen to on a weekly webcast.
There are only fifteen Choral Scholars at St John’s at any one time, so it is a fantastic achievement and we are all very proud of Will.
As well as performing with the choir, Will and his fellow scholars will perform as a self-directed ensemble called The Gentlemen of St John’s. The ‘Gents’ have a busy schedule of touring, concerts and recordings and have made a number of CDs.
Will, who will be a bass in the choir, said: “I’m delighted to have been awarded this scholarship. St John’s is a choir that I have admired for a number of years, so it is a real privilege to be able to sing as a member of the choir. I’m most excited about singing daily within the beautiful chapel, and about encountering exciting (and I’m sure challenging) new music. It will also be exciting to sing at St John’s high-profile events, such as the BBC Radio 3 broadcasts they do each year, and going on tour to different parts of the world with the choir.”

Today marks the start of National Carers’ Week. Cynically, this the one week of the year when non-carers remember that unpaid family Carers exist and make encouraging noises. Yet 96% of UK care is provided in the community by unpaid carers. 96%!!!! 1 of every 2 women in their 50s is an unpaid family carer, with all the impact this has on pay, career and occupational pension. Flip a coin, is it you or me? (Men do not achieve this statistic until age 74. *) Coincidentally, this week aspirant PM Boris Johnson has promised an extra £120pw for those earning £80k. As a tax break. Or bribe.
Guess what? From April, family carers have been able to claim £67 Carers’ Allowance per week. IF they are under pensionable age and IF they earn less than £123pw.
O – and Carers Allowance is taxable.
Are these Tory values?
*Thus the value of collecting data by gender. Suffolk’s Conservative administration, please note https://suffolklibdems.org/carolinepage/2019/03/24/suffolk-county-council-votes-to-fail-women/ #just saying

Jaypee Infratech in the year 2017 went into the Insolvency Process after their lenders, i.e., an IDBI Bank-led consortium moved to NCLT against the debt-ridden corporate debtor. As per the application, Jaypee owns an amount of approximately Rs 10,000 crores to the bankers.
Round 1 of theJaypee Infratech Insolvency proceeding to revive Jaypee was initiated last year, wherein Lakshadweep made a bid of Rs 7,350 crore which was rejected by the lenders of Jaypee (corporate debtor). Further, in October last year, the Insolvency Resolution professional started the 2nd round of bidding as per the direction of NCLT to revive Japyee
In Round 2, Suraksha Realty and NBCC took part in the bidding process which was also rejected by the lenders and matter moved to the NCLAT and ultimately to Supreme Court.
In the Committee of Creditors, around 13 banks and 23,000 home buyers have the voting rights of which the buyers have approximately 60% votes, and for approving a bid, 66% of the vote should be made in favour of the proposal that is to be finalized.
After the Round 2 bid was rejected, Supreme court on November 6 asked the bidders to complete the insolvency process within 90 days and submit a revised resolution Supreme court exercised its power under article 142 of the Constitution of India and extended the time of completing the process and said that this should not be taken as a precedent.
Revised Resolution Plan from Jaypee Infratech
On Sunday, NBCC has submitted the revised resolution plan wherein they have offered the lenders 1,426-acre of land against their last offer of 950 acres of land and also half of the Benami Flats which Japyee has. As per the report, NBSS has also offered 75% of 858 acres of land which will be given back to Jaypee from its parent company named Jaiprakash Associates.
Additionally, as per the source NBCC has also claimed in their revival plan to sell Rs 1,750 crore of the unsold flats of Jaypee, instead of giving them to the lenders and will transfer to the financial creditors, Yamuna Expressway that connects Noida and Agra
Suraksha Realty has also submitted the resolution plan whose details are still not known.
Today, i.e., November 18, the CoC is meeting to discuss the resolution plan that both the bidders have submitted to the IRP.
Since the Insolvency proceeding has begun against the Corporate debtor, the home buyers are demanding Forensic Audit of Jaypee. Homebuyers are still feeling harassed and cheated, and their representative has recommended that IRP include it its agenda in meeting with CoC, the issue of a forensic audit of the corporate debtor.
As per the home buyers, they firmly believe that the money which they have given to Jaypee for building a home is being syphoned to some other use.
As per the 2016 amendment in IBC, the home buyers want to put the agenda of Forensic Audit in the 14th CoC meeting which is scheduled to take place today.

Wind farm cash used to help communities in coronavirus crisis
Communities across Scotland are using cash from wind farms to help them cope through the coronavirus crisis.
Wind farm developers across the country pay out almost £21 million a year in community benefit payments.
This money usually goes to fund local projects but as the Covid-19 pandemic spreads across Scotland some of the cash is now being used as part of the response to the virus.
Foundation Scotland, the organisation that administers around 60 community benefit funds, has already held talks with community representatives on about 20 of those to see how the money can help.
In Lewis, community wind farm charity Point and Sandwick Trust has announced it will use all of its cash for this year to set up a pandemic support fund for the local community.
Community Energy Scotland, which co-owns a 7.5 megawatt wind farm near Cockburnspath with Berwickshire Housing Association, is now working with a newly established volunteer action group to provide emergency grants to local families in hardship.

The Royal couple are currently staying at the Birkhall estate in Aberdeenshire, with Camilla separating herself from her husband after she tested negative.
Speaking about Charles on BBC Radio Scotland’s Good Morning Scotland programme, Dr Calderwood said: “I have spoken to the team in Grampian who were looking after the individual.
“My understanding is there were very good reasons for that person and his wife to be tested, and obviously I wouldn’t be able to disclose anything else that I know because of patient confidentiality.”.

Nicola Sturgeon has announced that Scotland will go into an immediate lockdown, minutes after Prime Minister Boris Johnson made a similar declaration to the UK.
In a live statement, the First Minister said: “Let me be blunt - the stringent restrictions on our normal day to day lives are difficult and unprecedented - they amount to what has been described as a lockdown.”
With the exception of food shopping, exercise and necessary prescriptions, households have been told they must not go outside.
The lockdown will be enforced by law later this week when emergency legislation passes, meaning police will have the ability to issue fines to those breaking the new laws.
Ms Sturgeon said: “Later this week, emergency legislation will give us powers of enforcement and we will use those powers if that is necessary.
“Within days they will be able to follow that up with enforcement which is likely to take the form of fines.”

That is why people will only be allowed to leave their home for the following very limited purposes:
shopping for basic necessities, as infrequently as possible
• one form of exercise a day - for example a run, walk, or cycle - alone or with members of your household;
• any medical need, to provide care or to help a vulnerable person; and
• travelling to and from work, but only where this is absolutely necessary and cannot be done from home.
That’s all - these are the only reasons you should leave your home.”

'Reckless' pubs still open are 'endangering communities’ says Police Scotland as officers granted power to shut them down
Police Scotland now has the power to serve emergency closure orders on pubs and entertainment venues not complying with instructions to close.
Deputy Chief Constable Malcolm Graham, lead for coronavirus, issued a statement today praising the “exceptionally high level of compliance across Scotland” following instructions on Friday from the Scottish and UK governments that thousands of premises must close to stop the spread of coronavirus.
He commented: “However, I am aware that a small number of public houses are intent on defying this instruction and have indicated that they will remain open until legally ordered to close.
“This is absolutely reckless and endangers not only the lives of customers, but wider communities, in an extremely fast moving and unprecedented situation where both the health and safety of the nation is at stake.
“Therefore, I have obtained further legal advice today and Police Scotland will now instruct officers to serve emergency closure orders on any licensed premises which refuses to comply on the grounds of the threat posed to public safety.”
Officers will visit pubs and other venues today to make sure they are closed, using a compulsory closure under the Licensing Scotland Act - this remains in place for 24 hours but will be repeated if necessary.
DCC Graham added: “We will also report them to their relevant Licensing Board for further action to be considered.

|Thesis:||Experimental Char. of the Struct. Dynamics oh Hawkmoth Wings|
|Location:||Bldg 640, Rm 353|
|Date & Time:||03/05/2013 at 0930|
|Abstract:|| A case is made for why the structures discipline must take on a more central role in the research and design of flapping-wing micro-air-vehicles, especially if research trends continue toward bio-inspired, insect-sized flexible wing designs. In making the case, the eigenstructure of the wing emerges as a key structural metric for consideration. But with virtually no structural dynamic data available for actual insect wings, both engineered and computational wing models that have been inspired by biological analogs have no structural truth models to which they can be anchored. An experimental framework is therefore developed herein for performing system identification testing on the wings of insects. This framework is then utilized to characterize the structural dynamics of the forewing of a large sample of hawkmoth (Manduca Sexta) for future design and research consideration. The research also weighs-in on a decade-long debate as to the relative contributions that the inertial and fluid dynamic forces acting on a flapping insect wing have on its deformation (expression) during flight. Ultimately the findings proves that both affect wing expression significantly, casting serious doubt on the long-standing and most frequently cited research suggesting otherwise.
