Did you know that Betty White (ex-Ann Douglas, The Bold and the Beautiful) is a Girl Scout? I didn't. Check out her hilarious stop by The Late Late Show With Craig Ferguson.
I really wish my DVR wasn't so jam-packed full of TV shows or I would record The Late Late Show. Craig Ferguson is hilarious and I like him better than his time slot competitors.
Betty White recently celebreated 60 years in show business with her former Mary Tyler Moore Show co-stars, among others. White, who portrays the mother of The Bold and the Beautiful's Stephanie Forrester, Ann Douglas is an entertainment icon and has legions of fans.
I thought it might be fun for fans to share their favorite moments from her long career. What are your favorite Betty White roles, characters, moments or appearances?
Did you enjoy Betty White on The Bold & Beautiful? Have you missed not seeing her as Stephanie and Pam's mother dishing out advice in her not so tender and oh so unintentionally creepy way?
If you're in need of a Betty White fix you'll want to check out CBS's remake of the reality show Million Dollar Password.
ET Online went behind the scenes at the new show to visit with Betty White, whose appearance on Million Dollar Password will make it her 30th time on a show that her husband Allen Ludden originally hosted years ago.
The new edition of Million Dollar Password which premier on June 1st will be hosted by daytime talk legend Regis Philbin. When asked about whether or not the new show brought back memories Betty White responded "How could it not bring back memories? And some of them even sting a little," continuing. "Because that was a long time ago, and there's somebody missing. Regis is wonderful, but there's somebody missing for me."

When my spiritual life needs a shot in the arm, I sometimes turn to litanies. Many Catholics only encounter litanies on All Saint’s Day, perhaps leaving Mass with the impression that a litany is a prayer for when you have a short amount of time and a giant crowd to propitiate, sort of like a spiritual credits page that scrolls past in tiny print to fulfill your contractual obligation. St Key Grip, pray for us! All rights reserved, Amen.
But there are so many more litanies, and more kinds of litanies, than the litany of saints — which, by the way, is itself so much more than a list, and which has been prayed in one form or another for over 1500 years. The Litany of Saints was first recorded in the time of Gregory the Great around the year 600. According to one source,
“In 590 Pope Gregory was moved by the occurrence of a great pestilence that followed an inundation, and ordered a Litania Septiformis (‘sevenfold procession’): clergy; laity; monks; virgins; matrons; widows; and the poor and children. It was in one of these Litania Septiformis, in celebration of the end of the plague, that the Litany of the Saints was introduced.”
I’d like to see that! Imagine processing down the streets invoking the names of all the blessed — many of whom would have been martyrs — proclaiming to the world that you’re grateful to them and to God that you’re still breathing. That really brings home how personal the communion of saints truly is.
Of course the form of a litany is older than the Catholic Church. Every year at our Passover seder, we recite the sort of wellspring of all litanies, Psalm 136, and it is very good indeed to say the words that the children of Abraham have been saying faithfully for thousands and thousands of years: His mercy endures forever. I love how it slides so casually from the cosmic to the specific. We say:
“To him who alone doeth great wonders: for his mercy endureth for ever.
To him that by wisdom made the heavens: for his mercy endureth for ever.
To him that stretched out the earth above the waters: for his mercy endureth for ever.
To him that made great lights: for his mercy endureth for ever:
The sun to rule by day: for his mercy endureth for ever:
The moon and stars to rule by night: for his mercy endureth for ever.”
and then later in the same prayer:
“To him which smote great kings: for his mercy endureth for ever:
And slew famous kings: for his mercy endureth for ever:
Sihon king of the Amorites: for his mercy endureth for ever:
And Og the king of Bashan: for his mercy endureth for ever.”
Poor Og of Bashan! That’s all I ever knew about him, but I’ll never forget him. Even Og could have the mercy of the Lord, if he wanted it.

The 25th of May 2015 marked our new beginning; on that day, Japan Asia Group was listed in the first section of the Tokyo Stock Exchange. We are the 1,890th company to be admitted to this esteemed group. I hereby express my gratitude to all who supported us and our endeavors to create green communities.
The UN Member States adopted the Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction, the SDGs (Transforming our World: The 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development ), and the Paris Agreement on climate change in 2015. The actions that must be taken by countries in the developed world, to address climate change, protect the environment and Earth, and to develop sustainably, have been outlined, and green energy affirmed; we will start debating on our collective practical steps in 2016. My expectation is that our society itself will be required to change, unrecognizably, in the process of transforming our world, not only nations, local governments, businesses and all kinds of organizations, but even down to the individual. Businesses will be required to innovate in the direction of low carbon or de-carbonized products and services while maintaining their corporate growth.
Our society is rapidly ageing with falling birthrates; at the same time, expectations towards corporate citizens to address environmental issues including climate change has never been so high. We are at a turning point as a society right now. As a company that aims to solve societal issues through technology and finance, Japan Asia Group has been presented with an opportunity to make great strides towards our own sustainable growth.

Mixing Reason With Reality
As part of the celebration for this magazine’s 100th anniversary last December, we asked some of our columnists and advisory board members to make predictions on where the vegetable industry will be 50 years from now. One that caught my eye was from AVG’s “In The Greenhouse” columnist, Rick Snyder, who noted, “The magazine will be 90% concerned with greenhouse vegetables, but there will be one or two articles each year covering the old school methods of using soil and exposing crops to the elements outside.”
While Snyder’s comments may have been somewhat tongue-in-cheek, the more extreme today’s food safety regulatory environment gets, the more his comments could become reality.
In the past couple of months, we’ve witnessed a growing debate over how strict food safety regulations can and should become, and to a greater extent, how growers who are diverse in geography, size, and market can compete in the face of regional or crop-specific guidelines. Just recently, we’ve heard from growers in the West, wondering why they must follow different standards than growers across the country.
Points To Ponder
If there’s one thing that is clear in the food safety discussion, it’s that nothing is clear. A lot of gray areas still need to be addressed, especially when considering the needs of the entire vegetable industry. Here’s just a sampling of the questions that need to be asked, even if they don’t have clear answers at this point:
• How can we develop reasonable food safety policies that all growers can meet? While the only current mandatory standards apply to growers of leafy greens, produce buyers (as well as consumers) have specific demands of their own, such as third-party audits and the implementation of Good Agricultural Practices.
• If a set of national standards were developed, who would finance grower compliance? The costs of proper enforcement would undoubtedly be high, both for small and large growers. How can this enforcement take place without putting producers at risk?
• Can you really prevent every form of contamination of your crop? This alludes to Snyder’s comment; unless you’re growing everything in a protective bubble, it’s impossible to keep birds from flying overhead.
Despite these and other lingering concerns, we at American Vegetable Grower know that food safety needs to remain at the top of the list of grower priorities, both on an individual and collective basis. As a voice for the industry, we offer the following take-home messages.
1. Any further regulations that develop from today’s food safety problems must be realistic. While the standards for raising vegetables are certainly changing for everyone (for example, the days of family pets wandering the field may be coming to an end), a sense of reason must prevail.
2. Growers should be proactive in communicating information about their food safety programs, whether they’re dealing with retail buyers, or directly with the public.
3. Above all else, growers should be mindful of what they are doing at all times. As we stated in the February issue of AVG, it only takes one food safety-related incident to affect your entire business. If there’s a news crew visiting your farm for a feel-good story and they happen to notice something out of the ordinary in your field, you can bet the cameras will quickly shift away from you. Suddenly you’ll have a new story on your hands — one you didn’t want.
If you choose to stick your head in the sand about food safety, it’s your decision. But there’s a risk in doing so, a risk that could do unending damage to your business and our industry.

The Western Co-operativeÂ Credit UnionÂ (WESCCU) recorded assets totalingÂ GHÂ˘91,052.41 with a total income of GHÂ˘5827.54 in the 2011/2012 fiscal year which ended on June 30, 2012.
The Union’s Net Surplus also stood at GHÂ˘ 5,282.24 during the period under review compared to GHÂ˘2,015.58 during the previous financial year.
Richard Bentil, Board Chairman of WESSCU disclosed these at the maiden Annual General Meeting (AGM) of the credit union recently. It was on the theme, âEnhancing Business through affordable credit.â
WESSCU was established about two years ago by the Sekondi-Takoradi Chamber of Commerce and Industry to mitigate several problems. It has branches in the Sekondi-Takoradi metropolis and Elubo.
Mr. Bentil indicated that the past two years had beenÂ challenging against the backdrop that WESSCU is a new credit union with the vision of bridging the financial gap in the business community.
âSome of the challenges are human resource, logistics, irregular savings and inability of members to save above stated savings,â he added.
He mentioned that despite the challenges, the membership of the credit union steadily increased from 20 to 294 as at June 30, 2012.
Ato Van-Ess, Chairman of the Sekondi-Takoradi Chamber of Commerce and Industry, explained that the objective of WESCCU is to offer free and affordable credit to SMEs.
âThrough self financial mobilization, we were of the conviction that we could provide the needed credit ourselves without knocking at the doors of the traditional financial institutions,â he stressed.
Cadmond Dadzie, Treasurer to Chamber, stressed the benefits of credit unions, saying they had created opportunities for many workers to enhance their living standards through regular savings.

India opted for a full-strength squad, with Rohit Sharma leading the side. KL Rahul will act as his deputy, with Suryakumar Yadav and Virat Kohli also expected to feature heavily.
Axar Patel, Deepak Hooda and Dinesh Karthik, all of whom played intermittent roles at the Asia Cup, have been included. Hardik Pandya and Rishabh Pant also make the cut. On the bowling front, Mohammed Shami has been recalled, with Harshal Patel and Jasprit Bumrah also being passed fit after missing the Asia Cup due to injury.

Australia, too, selected most of their first-choice players. Aaron Finch, who recently retired from ODI cricket, will be leading the side. Pat Cummins returns after being rested for the ODI series against New Zealand and alongside Adam Zampa, Josh Hazlewood and Mitchell Starc is part of a formidable bowling unit.
David Warner, though, has been accorded a break. That said, Australia have plenty of quality in their ranks, with Glenn Maxwell, Marcus Stoinis, Matthew Wade, Mitchell Marsh and Tim David capable of being match-winners.
The series will start on September 20 at Mohali. The 2nd and 3rd T20Is are scheduled to be held at Nagpur and Hyderabad on September 23 and 25, respectively.

I found a tutu tutorial (I just love saying that) online, here: http://www.heartbreakkids.com/blog/2010/10/3/how-to-make-a-tutu.html (it's for kids, but was easy to transfer to my adult size). I made mine with black and white tulle, I was hoping to add some red but did not find any at my local craft store... but that's ok, cause I have an idea you will see in a minute.
I couldn't get a decent pic of myself wearing it, but here you can get the idea of the fabulous poofyness as it hides my toes when photographed from above:
And a slightly more forward facing shot:
And modeled by my lovely chair:
I love how poofy it is!
But since this is for a Red Riding Hood costume I think it needs some red, so I found some shiny Christmas ribbon to add, but I can't decide how to add it.
I could tie strips on to look something like this:
Or I could add a simple bow:
I think I'm leaning towards the bow idea, but I might wait until I have the rest of my costume put together ;)
I received these fun wrist cuffs in a swap the other day that will be joining my costume:
Now all I need is a dress (or something), a cape, and a basket of goodies!
I'm also very tempted to buy more tulle in different colors to make myself an other tutu, do you think it would be a crime against fashion for an adult to wear a poofy tutu in her day to day life? They are just too awesome, why should toddlers have all the fun?

It’s not surprising that loads of games outside the typical shooter genre have gotten the battle royale treatment – what’s surprising is how well it’s worked. After Tetris 99 on Switch proved that basically any battle royale could theoretically work, Forza Horizon 4 is about to put that thought to the test with The Eliminator mode, which is scheduled to launch tomorrow. The Eliminator is a 72-player racing battle royale. You start in a Mini Cooper in a random location on the map – the mode uses the full map from the standard game – as you seek out car upgrades and other drivers. Those car upgrades will be marked by smoke on the field, and driving into one will upgrade you into a whole new car. You can also drive up to another player on the field and challenge them to a race. The game will give you a point to race toward – the loser is eliminated, and the winner can either take their opponent’s car or level up their own vehicle. When the field is narrowed down to ten, the final drivers then have to race to a final point to be declared the winner.

Flint, MI—The City of Flint has received a $1 million grant for the development of the St. John Street Neighborhood Memorial Park on Flint’s north side.
“We’re big time now,” laughed James Wardlow, President of the St. John Street Historical Committee, which has been spearheading the memorial park project. “But truly, that’ll get us moving pretty good. We’re so happy.”
The grant, known as a Michigan Spark grant, was recently awarded by the Michigan Department of Natural Resources. The funding will support improving trails, repaving over 3.5 miles of the Flint River Trail, building a new playground and parking lot and repairs to seven existing scenic river overlooks, according to City of Flint press release on Feb. 9, 2023.
The funding adds to other grants given to the project over the last year. In fall 2022, the park received $750,000 from the City of Flint itself between the city’s general fund and American Rescue Plan Act dollars.
The memorial park arose from the St. John Street Historical Committee’s vision for a way to remember and honor a past destroyed.
The original St. John Street neighborhood was largely demolished in the early 1970s to make way for Interstate-475. The demolition effectively displaced many Black and immigrant residents who lived in the neighborhood, and the City now hopes the park will help commemorate what was once “a thriving, racially diverse, self-sustaining community,” according to the press release.
“We have a responsibility to reinvest in communities of color that were harmed through racist urban renewal practices, and we want to make sure we make those communities whole again,” Mayor Sheldon Neeley said. ”The St. John Street neighborhood holds a special place in our hearts and minds, and I’m thankful for this investment by the State of Michigan, especially during Black History Month.”
Wardlow said the historical committee’s next steps involve hiring an engineer to help lay out their park vision. He also said they are awaiting information on what will happen with the Utah Dam—which runs through the park site—as part of the Michigan Department of Transportation’s ongoing, $300 million I-475 reconstruction project.
“It’s going to be a great vehicle for memorializing the St. John Street area,” Wardlow said of the coming park. “A lot of people have forgotten, our history was almost lost, but we’re bringing it back—and that memorial park will stabilize and be a standing monument to the St. John Street area.”


An unmanned SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket carrying scientific cargo and supplies to the International Space Station exploded two minutes after liftoff in Florida Sunday.
The 208-foot-tall Space Exploration Technologies rocket, flown by SpaceX and owned by technology entrepreneur Elon Musk, has made 18 successful launches in the past five years. This included six NASA cargo runs under a contract worth more than $2 billion.
However, the botched mission from Cape Canaveral Air Force was the second successive botched mission to resupply the space station. Officials are still unsure what caused the accident soon after liftoff.
Musk said that there was an “overpressure event in the upper stage liquid oxygen tank,” as reported by Washington Post. That is “all we can say in confidence right now,” he tweeted.
NASA Associate Administrator Bill Gerstenmaier expressed his disappointment in a news conference, Reuters reports. “This was a blow to us,” Gerstenmaier said.
He added that the explosion destroyed a significant amount of research equipment. Gerstenmaier also claimed that SpaceX’s failures demonstrate the challenges faced in engineering and space flight in general.
NASA Administrator Charles Bolden stated that the station is obviously disappointed in the loss of the cargo; however, “the astronauts are safe aboard the station and have sufficient supplies for the next several months. We will work closely with SpaceX to understand what happened, fix the problem and return to flight.”
Falcon 9 rockets will not be leaving the ground any time soon. An investigation into the devastating explosion will keep them grounded for “a number of months or so” but less than a year, according to SpaceX President Gwynne Shotwell.
The explosion creates a setback for SpaceX. They were set to compete against United Launch Alliance–only launch provider for military and spy satellite launches and a joint venture of BoeingCo and Lockheed Martin Corp–for the first time to launch a GPS III satellite.
This is SpaceX’s third mishap. An Orbital Antares rocket exploded in October and a Russian Progress 59 spun out of control in orbit. These mishaps put significant pressure on SpaceX to deliver a successful flight.

INDIANAPOLIS — Identity and standards.
For Indianapolis Colts head coach Frank Reich, the team fell short in both areas last week in its season-opening loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars.
But that certainly wasn't the case Sunday in the Colts' 2020 home opener against the Minnesota Vikings at Lucas Oil Stadium.
Indianapolis was the aggressor on offense and defense, and had a flawless day on special teams; it was the all-around effort and response Reich was looking for, as the Colts evened their record at 1-1 with their 28-11 victory over the Vikings (0-2).
"A great team effort — in all three phases," Reich told reporters after the game. "That's what we wanted to see today. That's the kind of game we expected. And so, just proud of the team, the way we responded after last week."
The Colts got off to a hot start in Week 1, but saw the Jaguars steal the momentum late in the first quarter after a big stop on 4th and 1 from the Jacksonville 3-yard line. Colts quarterback Philip Rivers ended up throwing the ball 46 times in all in that game, and Reich later admitted he had hoped Indy could've established its run game better than it did.
The Colts had no such problems in that area on Sunday against the Vikings. Indianapolis ran the ball 40 times for 151 yards, grinding out long drives and wearing out the Minnesota defense.
Rookie running back Jonathan Taylor, who earned his first-career start Sunday after a season-ending injury last week to veteran Marlon Mack, led the way on the ground with 26 rushing attempts for 101 yards and his first-career touchdown.
"The plan was to feature Jonathan, and he was running hard and running good," Reich said. "It just felt like we had good rhythm, he was seeing it well, obviously the line was getting movement on the line of scrimmage."
The Colts' offense also got a big boost from another young player playing a major role with an injury to a veteran starter, as tight end Mo Alie-Cox, in for two-time Pro Bowler Jack Doyle, who was inactive Sunday with knee and ankle injuries, had a career day with five receptions for 111 yards, averaging 22.2 yards per catch.
Sunday was the first time the Colts had a 100-yard rusher and 100-yard receiver in the same game since Oct. 17, 2010, when Joseph Addai (128 rushing yards) and Pierre Garçon (103 receiving yards) achieved that accomplishment in a 27-24 victory over the Washington Football Team.
"He works so hard — it's so important to him," Reich said of Alie-Cox, who is in his third full NFL season after exclusively playing college basketball at VCU. "He's physically and mentally tough, and he's just continued to get better. And it was obvious this week with Jack down, that being a big blow, Philip let us know right away — he let me and Nick (Sirianni) know right away — how much confidence he has in Mo, and (to) not hold anything back."
Defensively, outside of some garbage points scored late by the Vikings, the Colts couldn't have played much better than they did on Sunday.
The Colts held the Vikings to just 175 yards of total offense (their fewest allowed since Oct. 19, 2014, vs. Cincinnati ), picked off quarterback Kirk Cousins three times, forced a safety, sacked Cousins another three times, limited Pro Bowl running back Dalvin Cook to just 63 rushing yards, and, perhaps most importantly, clearly showed improvement from Indy's Week 1 loss to the Jaguars, when Gardner Minshew II had his way by completing 19-of-20 passes and three touchdowns and zero interceptions.
"That was an explosive offense; we were good for 60 minutes," Reich said. "You could feel it the whole game. Our defense kept the pressure on 'em. We stopped the run, we got turnovers. We made the statement we wanted to make defensively."
And, finally, on special teams, rookie kicker Rodrigo Blankenship nailed all six of his attempts on the day, connecting on four field goals and two extra points in all. Long snapper Luke Rhodes also had a clutch hustle play that led to a Colts punt being downed at the Minnesota 2-yard line; a few plays later, Cousins was sacked in the end zone by defensive tackle DeForest Buckner for a safety, setting the tone for the rest of the afternoon.
The goal from here is to keep the momentum going next Sunday, when the New York Jets come to Lucas Oil Stadium for their Week 3 matchup against the Colts.
The Jets fell to 0-2 on the year Sunday with their 31-13 loss to the San Francisco 49ers.
"There's no question that this is a blueprint to what we want it to look like," Reich said of the win over the Vikings. "Overall it was really, really solid in all three areas."

The Poor Health Status of the Hungarians; Comparative Macro-Analysis of the Likely Explanatory Factors on Hungarian and Austrian Data, 1960-2004
AbstractIn Hungary, the health status of working age men is extremely bad in comparison with working age men in both developed market economies and neighboring transition countries. The study, based on data between 1960 and 2004, intends to discover the reasons for this peculiar situation by investigating the health status of the population in Hungary and Austria with health-production functions on a macro level and by making comparisons. The rationale for comparison of these very countries is the territorial closeness and the long mutual past. The mortality rate of the working age population (15–60 years old) is considered a proxy variable for health status. According to this indicator, health status in the two countries was at the same level in 1960s, but started to diverge around 1970. As an explanatory variable, indicators of life style, long-term economic development, healthcare resources and the situation in the labor market are taken into account. The results reveal that the poor health of the adult male population of Hungary can primarily be explained by high levels of prolonged alcohol consumption, heavy smoking and widespread self-exploitative excess work in the hidden economy, especially during the period of socialism. In Austria, alcohol consumption, and smoking are also relevant factors, but with much less effect than in Hungary.

Eye Surgical treatment
Eye Surgical procedure has actually ended up being a mainstream approach of vision modification, and also this write-up will certainly explain the benefits and drawbacks of 3 various approaches being supplied to the clinical consumer.
Lasik Eye Surgical treatment
LASIK is the phrase for Laser-Assisted Sitting Keratomileusis and is an eye surgical system which permanently remedies vision by removing a thin layer of the cornea. This treatment functions best on people with modest to high levels of myopia (nearsightedness), low to modest levels of hyperopia (farsightedness) and also astigmatism associated with nearsightedness, as well as that have thick corneas. It is one of the most popular medical vision correction technique.
Individuals with typical eye view see items plainly since pictures are brought right into a right centerpiece by the cornea and also lens of the eye. Ideally, the cornea's curvature is equally matched to its size in a normal eye. Individuals with astigmatism, nearsightedness or hyperopia have actually off-and-on formed corneas, so the objects seen are not concentrated appropriately. LASIK adjustments corneal form by exact elimination of corneal tissue, as well as by doing so deals with the eyes' focusing power.
There are, nonetheless, risks to LASIK eye surgical procedure.
There is a remote chance of total loss of vision. If this occurs, it is usually since the individual had a pre-existing problem which needs to have averted the surgical procedure to begin with, such as pregnancy, cataracts, arthritis, diabetes, glaucoma, or lupus. People with large students are likewise inadequate prospects for LASIK. Dry eye syndrome will certainly be exacerbated by this treatment.
A couple of patients complain that they completely see "ghost" pictures, have actually obscured vision, lessened comparison and also poor evening vision. When LASIK was first introduced, 5% of clients had post-operative grievances; nonetheless, refinements in the treatment have triggered this price to drop to much less than 1% if LASIK is done by skilled specialists and individuals are effectively screened before surgical procedure. If troubles do occur, they can commonly be resoved by a retreatment.
FDA has actually accepted LASIK laser eye surgery given that 1998. While there are a lot of satisfied individuals, there are however no long-term research studies about its results. Recognize the restrictions and the threats of LASIK eye surgical procedure prior to you sigh for the treatment.
Though much less popular, these little implants can boost vision in individuals with mild to modest myopia without the risk of long-term eye damages fundamental in the cells elimination method of LASIK. Intacs are semi-circular disks dental implanted in the cornea which stretch it to assume a flatter form. Though a little much less precise than LASIK, they are removeable and changeable, so if the patient has an unexpected over- or under-correction, the dental implant could be eliminated and one more of a different dimension inserted to get the desired improvement. The implants are located at Full Article the edge of the cornea, so the central aesthetic area is entirely intact and also undamaged, and the toughness of the cornea is undiminished, making it a much better alternative for pilots as well as those that engage in get in touch with sporting activities where eye injury is a possibility.
Intacs are unsuitable for serious myopia and greater than minor astigmatism (1.00 diopters), as the cornea can only be stretched until now. If the Intacs are removed, vision returns to its preoperative level. Apart from vision adjustment, Intacs are additionally made use of to deal with keratoconus.
Intacs are FDA accepted and 10 year researches have actually exposed no major issues with Intacs and also very few patient grievances; nonetheless, since the procedure takes more training compared to LASIK, there are less eye surgery clinics using it. Nevertheless, the Intacs web site gives a checklist of specialists in each state, too a couple of in Canada, Europe and also Mexico.
Since many people do not wish to run the risk of LASIK as well as Intacs could not help those with serious vision issues, intraocular lens implants (IOL) are a brand-new alternative approved by the FDA in 2004 to fix modest to extreme nearsightedness. The Craftsmen lens, made by Ophtec, resembles the kind of lens implant used to restore vision following cataract eye surgical procedure.
The brand-new IOL, called the Artisan, is meant for only patients who have 2.5 diopters or much less of astigmatism.
The fabricated lens does not replace the natural lens, however is placed in front of it. The major trouble located with the implant was the consistent loss of endothelial cells in the corneas of clients who obtained the implants. The endothelium is a layer of cells that line the undersurface of the cornea and also are crucial in maintaining the cornea clear. A three-year study showed a continuous steady loss of endothelial cells of 1.8 percent a year. Now, nobody can forecast whether this loss will proceed at the very same price indefinitely, or perhaps its effect on corneal function.
To decrease long-lasting effects of the gadget on the corneal endothelium, the FDA is calling for that the brand-new lenses be labelled to define that they need to just be dental implanted in individuals whose corneal endothelial cells are thick enough to withstand small cell loss.
Much more significant problems were couple of: retinal detachment (0.6%), cataract development (0.6%), as well as corneal swelling (0.4%). The FDA is our website calling for Ophtec to conduct a five-year follow-up study of its dental implant clients to much better assess the post-surgical incidence of cataract growth, retinal detachment and other ocular conditions.
The Artisan lens is meant to be an irreversible implant.Though it can be eliminated surgically, vision might not constantly return to just what it was prior to getting the lens. Due to the fact that it does not impact astigmatism, patients with this issue may still call for glasses.

Chris Sale is as frustrated as he\'s ever been on a baseball field as he continues to struggle to begin the season.
Sale suffered his fourth loss of the season on Tuesday night against the New York Yankees, while his ERA stands at 8.50. He had four defeats during the entire 2018 season.
\"I just flat-out stink right now,\" he said. \"I don\'t know what it is. When you\'re going good, it\'s good. When you\'re going bad, it\'s pretty bad.\"
Sale is in the midst of what he called the worst stretch of his 10-year career, which has included six consecutive top-5 finishes in AL Cy Young balloting and, coming into the season, a 2.89 ERA, 103-65 record and 1,789 strikeouts in 1,482⅓ innings.
\"I\'ve got to find a way to pitch better,\" the left-hander said. \"This is flat-out embarrassing. For my family, for my team, for our fans. This is about as bad as it gets. I have to pitch better. I keep saying the same things, but at the end of the day, you go out there and give up four runs here, five runs here, seven runs here ... if I get into the sixth or seventh inning like I should -- that\'s who I am.
\"I\'m supposed to pitch into the sixth, seventh, eighth inning, finish games and stuff like that, save our bullpen, cut it off when we\'re losing and keep winning streaks going. That\'s not who I\'ve been.\"

The government must provide compensation to a business if it is removing that business from the property. This is stated under the Fifth Amendment of the United States Constitution. However, the wording is a bit different when you see it on official documents. The wording is likely to say that you will be provided “just compensation.” This is because there are a wide variety of factors that can affect how much compensation you really receive. Many business owners will bring on an attorney who is experienced in eminent domain to handle the various legal challenges that may occur in terms of property value.
How can eminent domain affect your business?
The way eminent domain affects a business depends entirely on a number of factors. Not all business owners will be in the same situation, but the following includes a list of ways that eminent domain can affect companies:
- The need to take out a mortgage loan in a new location
- Less customer traffic
- Increased shipping rates due to new distance
- Losing the company’s largest asset
If you are facing an eminent domain process, there are some legal routes you can take to protect your business. It may be beneficial to bring on a legal team to help you receive the compensation you deserve.

عنوان مقاله [English]
In recent years, due to drought, population growth, and the decline in groundwater reserves, the water poverty became an essential measure to consider. The main objective of this study is to quantitatively and qualitatively assess the of groundwater resources poverty based on two innovative effective and data-mining mathematical-analytical methods considering the six factors of capacity, environment, infrastructure and access, water resources, management and climate (57 variables) in the West Azerbaijan province for the period of 1390-1398 (2011-2019). The value of comprehensive water poverty index was obtained as 53.03 and 53.67 in two effective and data-mining mathematical-analytical models, respectively. The results showed that for the models the factors of water resources, management and climate cause relative unsustainability in groundwater resources systems. The comprehensive water poverty index has increased from 2012 to 2018, while the value of this index has reached a relatively stable status after the implementation of plans and projects related to groundwater resources management. The years 2011, 2013, and 2017 are respectively the milestones for the change of the status of the comprehensive water poverty index from very low to low, low to medium, and medium to high. As one of the unique innovations of the current research, considering the climate factor along with the extreme climatology phenomena in measuring comprehensive water poverty can play a key role in decision making and formulating management plans in water sector. Also, the development of a data-mining model which reduces the number of variables included in the measurement of the water poverty index, can effectively reduce the time, cost and resources used for the water projects. Finally, investigating the effect of the two sub-projects related to the Groundwater reclamation and balancing plan i.e. 1) equipping wells with smart measuring tools, and 2) culture and information project, on the water poverty index showed that the mentioned projects in some cases require management reforms that should be taken into consideration by the managers and the policy makers.

Roshdieh: ‘Our Road Network is Essentially Built Out’
UPDATED The new acting director of Montgomery County’s Department of Transportation (MCDOT) is sharing some of his goals and vision for moving the county forward in an interview posted online on Dec. 29.
Al Roshdieh says the county’s “road network is essentially built out” in an online interview with Esther Bowring, the editor of Go Montgomery.
“We cannot solve traffic tie ups by continuing to build more and more roads,” Roshdieh said. “Even in the less densely populated areas of the County, providing more alternative transportation options, like the Rapid Transit System, and providing better and more frequent links to existing transit will provide greater opportunities to reduce vehicle traffic.”
According to Roshdieh, getting more cars off the road benefits those who have fewer or no alternatives to driving. He also said it will also support Montgomery County Executive Ike Leggett’s six point economic plan to better position the county for the future.
“Montgomery County is a vibrant and innovative community that has embraced smart growth principles as the path to an even brighter economic future,” Roshdieh said. “To achieve this vision and further unlock the County’s economic potential, we must continue to transform our transportation infrastructure to be even more transit-oriented, bikable and walkable.”
Roshdieh’s first day as acting director was Dec. 22. He has served Montgomery County for 25 years, according to a news release announcing his appointment.
You can read the entire interview with Roshdieh here.


I'm having trouble wiring a 12 SI 3-wire alternator so it actually charges the battery. I don't want to run the wire through the original dash idiot light, I'm using a voltmeter instead. I've been reading other posts and the questionable hookup seems to be the "#1" or left spade terminal as viewed from the rear of the alternator. I have the "+" connection on the right terminal connected to the battery "+", but I can't figure out from the other posts what to connect to the left terminal if I don't want to connect it to the idiot light, but then how do I get the proper voltage drop that everyone is saying is needed for the alternator to "excite" or activate when it supposed to? When I connected it to a fused 12v source that is "on" with the ignition, the engine would not shut off, and the voltmeter was not even coming up to 12 volts, and it is my understanding it should have been reading 13 or more.

Civil Wars go out with a bang
‘The Civil Wars'
The Civil Wars (Columbia/Sensibility)
John Paul White and Joy Williams, better known as folk duo the Civil Wars, enjoyed critical and commercial success with their 2011 studio debut “Barton Hollow,” a near perfect album that went gold and earned them a pair of Grammys.
But at the height of their popularity, White and Williams announced last November that they were taking a break.
Fortunately they put the finishing touches on this self-titled sophomore set before going on hiatus and we have 12 mostly excellent tracks to keep us company.
While a notch below the sheer awesomeness of “Barton Hollow,” this album won't disappoint their fans. Among the standout tunes are the one-two opening punch of “The One That Got Away” and “I Had Me a Girl,” as well as “Dust to Dust,” “Devil's Backbone,” “From This Valley” and “Oh Henry.”
Here's hoping the Civil Wars will be back at it soon.
‘Push Any Button'
Sam Phillips (Littlebox)
Sam Phillips, the female singer/songwriter who isn't related to the Sun Records impresario of the same name, enjoyed a career rebirth during the first decade of the millennium thanks to a series of standout albums (2001's “Fan Dance,” 2004's “A Boot and a Shine” and 2008's “Don't Do Anything”) and looks for more of the same with “Push Any Button.” Inspired by pop music of the late 1960s and early 1970s, the 51-year-old serves up an enjoyable 10-track collection of tunes. Keepers include “All Over Me,” “See You in Dreams,” “Going,” “Things I Shouldn't Have Told You” and “Can't See Straight.” Good stuff.
Transitshop (Rock Ridge)
Indie pop trio Transitshop made a minor splash with its 2010 self-titled debut EP and the Chris O'Brien-fronted outfit looks to expand its profile with the release of “Velocity,” its first full-length slab. Having garnered comparisons to everyone from the Cure and the Cars to Death Cab for Cutie and Tokyo Police Club, Transitshop has crafted a radio-ready gathering of 10 tunes. “Collective” gets things off to a so-so start, but the guys hit their stride with “Life Goes On,” “The Stone,” “Pick Me,” “Whirlwind” and “Come Through.”
Chixdiggit! (Fat Wreck Chords)
Back in the mid-'90s, when pop/punk still seemed fresh, Canadian outfit Chixdiggit! emerged as one of the genre's rising stars. Fat Wreck Chords has combined 1998's “Born on the First of July” and 2000's “From Scene to Shining Scene,” added eight bonus tracks, and reissued them as “Double Diggits!” It's a 32-track, 68-minute collection of pop/punk that sounds as vibrant today as it did 15 years ago. Songs “Keepin' Air,” “My Restaurant,” “Ohio,” “Spanish Fever,” “Aromatherapy” and “Folks Are Gone” are sure to get your pulse pounding, and bonus tracks “I Should Have Played Football in High School” and “She Gets All the Girls” are great. Rock on.
Get Dead (Fat Wreck Chords)
Mixing punk rock with traditional Irish folk, San Francisco five-piece Get Dead makes an impressive debut on “Bad News.” With acoustic instrumentation surrounding the sandpaper vocals of frontman Sam King, the lads have cobbled together a 12-track slab that should appeal to punk and folk fans alike. Stellar opener “Kerouac's Teeth” sets the tone, and Get Dead also scores with “The Process,” “Burn Out,” “This One's for Johnny,” “Riverbank,” “Bartender” and Problematic.” Highly recommended.
‘The A&M Years: 1984-1986'
The Swimming Pool Q's (Cipher Bureau)
I'm not sure why Atlanta's the Swimming Pool Q's never made it big. Heck, I was a high school student in Atlanta at the time and they were barely a blip on my radar. We were much more concerned about Georgia bands such as R.E.M. and the B-52's, which is a shame because the infectious music of the Swimming Pool Q's holds up well some three decades later. Maybe “The A&M Years” will bring them the acclaim that unfairly eluded them in their heyday. The expansive four-disc set is a worthwhile investment for anyone who came of age in that era. The first two CDs feature the band's phenomenal 1984 self-titled release and 1986's so-so “Blue Tomorrow” in their entirety, and the third CD, “Pow Wow Hour,” includes 17 rare tracks from that era. Rounding out the package is “Auto Zoom,” a DVD featuring live clips, promotional videos, interviews and television appearances.

We are developing the GeNOsyl Acute DS to deliver a constant intra-breath concentration of therapeutic NO to patients who are on a ventilator in the hospital setting under close medical supervision. It can also be used with a nasal cannula or face mask. GeNOsyl Acute DS is comprised of a portable console and our single-use drug cassette. GeNOsyl Acute DS is designed to be simple and intuitive to use.Patient and user safety is paramount in GeNO product designs. GeNO’s nitric oxide delivery products are designed to deliver nitric oxide with levels of the impurity nitrogen dioxide (NO2) that are consistently less than the National Institute for Occupation Safety and Health (NIOSH) limit of 1 ppm.
CAUTION: The GeNO nitric oxide delivery systems are investigational and limited by federal law to investigational use only.
GeNOsyl® Acute DS
The GeNOsyl Acute DS incorporates four components: the primary delivery system, a backup system, the NO gas analyzer and the NO2 gas analyzer. The GeNOsyl Acute DS injects a constant flow of nitric oxide (NO) gas into the inspiratory limb of the ventilator circuit to deliver a constant concentration of NO to the patient. It provides continuous integrated monitoring of inspired oxygen, NO and nitrogen dioxide (NO2) concentrations, and a comprehensive alarm system. Prior to reaching the patient, the gas passes through a small cartridge which serves two functions: 1) as a mixing chamber, and 2) to scrub out any NO2 which may be present, so as to deliver NO with extremely low levels of NO2 impurity.
GeNOsyl® Chronic DS
The wearable GeNOsyl Chronic DS contains gas monitoring and controls and a rechargeable battery as well as a separate, disposable cassette which includes a small integrated liquid NO2 reservoir together with two cartridges. There are no gas cylinders and no gas regulators. The cartridges have extra reserve capacity beyond the maximum amount of NO2 that can be stored in the reservoir. The second cartridge provides 100% redundancy to the main cartridge, which already has extra reserve capacity. In addition to serving as a redundant cartridge, the second cartridge converts any NO2 that may have formed in the tubing back to nitric oxide.
We are developing GeNOsyl Chronic DS to be a lightweight system that can be worn comfortably by patients for use outside of the hospital setting. The product is designed to deliver high purity NO to the patient 24 hours per day by means of a nasal cannula or a face mask. Battery management is expected to be similar to that of a cell phone, with a recharging capability from wall outlets, a recharger in an automobile, or from a back-up battery. The total weight of the controller, cassette and battery is designed to be less than 16 ounces.

The Penguins of Madagascar are back and they’ve got their own flick. And what is truly fascinating about this is that this quartet of guys who were first introduced in the Madagascar movie several years ago, has become the runaway stars of the series.
And, I mean, why wouldn’t they? They’re like four James Bonds wrapped in a cute little package... What’s not to love?
DreamWorks Animation has released the film’s latest trailer and it also shows how the world of the Penguins of Madagascar has expanded to include a supervillain (an Octopus voiced by John Malkovich) and a new group of heroes called The North Wind (led by Benedict Cumberbatch).
Of course, our favorite animated penguins feel they don’t need any help. They can save the world from Dave (yeah, that’s the octopus’ name!)… or can they?
Watch Madagascar 3: Europe’s Most Wanted online to see where our adventure-seeking penguins got started.


Liverpool close in on Henderson
Liverpool's shock and awe approach to the transfer market will lead the Anfield club to lodge bids for both Blackpool captain Charlie Adam and Aston Villa winger Stewart Downing once the capture of Sunderland's Jordan Henderson is complete.
Manager Kenny Dalglish and director of football Damien Comolli are hopeful of concluding a deal for the 20-year-old midfielder in the next 48 hours, with the two clubs last night edging closer to agreeing a fee.
Steve Bruce is believed to value the player at £20m -- a price Liverpool are reluctant to match. However, the Anfield hierarchy are confident a compromise price can be reached, leaving Comolli and Dalglish free to turn their focus on other targets.
Liverpool are determined to conduct the majority of their transfer dealings before their squad reconvene at the club's Melwood base for the start of pre-season training in early July and will waste no time in adding to the signing of Henderson, with Adam and Downing both viewed as priorities.
To secure 25-year-old Adam, Liverpool will have to improve on the unsuccessful £7m offer they lodged for the Scotland international in January, though Blackpool's subsequent relegation weakens their negotiating position considerably.
Dalglish believes that Downing (26), who is expected to cost around £10m, could prove crucial to eliciting the best from Andy Carroll.
The Liverpool manager, along with Comolli, is keen to infuse the club's squad with young, native talent, leading to moves for Henderson, Phil Jones of Blackburn and Ipswich striker Connor Wickham.
However, exceptions will be made for Adam, Newcastle's Spanish left-back Jose Enrique, who will cost £9m, and Roma's Brazilian goalkeeper Doni (£1m), who will act as understudy to Pepe Reina.
The club have also been linked with a move for Barcelona winger Jeffren Suarez, who has just a year left on his contract at Camp Nou.
Meanwhile, Theo Walcott hopes some summer signings can help give Arsenal a "cutting edge" next season.
"It will be interesting to see who comes and goes in the summer, the boss has said he is going to spend," Walcott said.
"We have got a great squad and play the best football, it is just a cutting edge which we need." (© Daily Telegraph, London)

After banging on about my impressions of football in Bhutan in general, I wanted to share a few stories and photos from football in Chamgang and the wonderful educational institution that is Yangchen Gatshel Lower Secondary School.
|The new pitch|
Chamgang (and YGLSS) has only recently opened its first football field. It is surrounded by beautiful forests and mountains and is (unsurprisingly) carved out of the side of steep hillside. Sadly, there was not enough money in the Dzonghag budget to build a retaining wall below the field so I'm sure most of the field will have washed away in three years time.
|We've already lost a couple of metres of sideline in the last six weeks|
|School footballers and our resident ara-brewer/dancing referee|
The field at this stage consists mostly of dirt, now turned mostlyinto mud. Lots of mud. But the Bhutanese football mantra of ‘we must play on!’rings out in even the most torrential rainstorms.I've finally learned how to play in the mud - but still find mud in my ears three days after my latest game.
|These boots are made for wallowing|
|The teacher team|
Nothing beats finishing a tough game of swamp-soccer like a plate of momos and a cuppa tea. (That's an official Bhutanese football jersey by the way: a good way to set yourself up for failure by looking like a pro but playing like a jackass).
|Official diet of the Bhutanese National Team|
Here's a story of one of my epic failures in the footballing arena, originally posted on stalkbook.
Moment of Village Footballing Glory Number 487
So it's the big football match of the month: teachers and students versus police and villagers and I'm playing on the left wing. I'm wearing my fancy new Bhutanese Football jersey and because I'm playing in a country that is officially ranked last (207th) on the FIFA world rankings, I'm feeling pretty(foolishly) good about the fact that I'm actually able to score a few goals over here.
The game begins and a nice through ball comes from the Dzongkha lopen and suddenly it's just me with 30 metres to go and the keeper to beat. I charge ahead, already picturing the ball sliding into the top corner of the net.
Then, a total foreigners mistake: complete failure to factor in the pond of 30cm deep mud standing somewhere on the edge of the box. The ball stops dead in the muck, I shoot past it, try to recollect it with my left foot,end up collecting mud instead and perform the most spectacular face plant in the short history of Chamgang village football.
There is an audible hush from the other players as I lie gargling mud and wondering how I ended up in Kokoda. Normally the Bhutanese Ihave met have such a developed sense of slapstick that there would raucous laughter and merciless teasing at such a spectacular stack but being a chilip,people are too respectful to laugh outright at my theatrics.
There is a loud slurping sound as I haul myself out of the mud, a large Matt-shaped imprint slowly filling with water below me. Play resumes and we end up winning by a margin of six goals. Once I reenact the faceplant myself, the teasing becomes open-slather. "Sir has best luck!""Best swimming all game!" "Sir has left a xerox copy in the mud!" are common lines, along with a lot of re-miming of the incident.
Ego in check I do manage to slide at least one past the keeper doubling my goal tally for the last 13 years, but I realize that I do still have a lot to learn about playing football Bhutan styles.

Vitamin B12 [Methylcobalamin] Injection
Methylcobalamin, or vitamin B12, is a B-vitamin. It is found in a variety of foods such as fish, shellfish, meats, and dairy prod- ucts. Although methylcobalamin and vitamin B12 are terms used interchangeably, vitamin B12 is also available as hydroxocobalamin, a less commonly prescribed drug product (see Hydroxocobalamin monograph), and methylcobalamin. Methylcobalamin is used to treat pernicious anemia and vitamin B12 deficiency, as well as to determine vitamin B12 absorption in the Schilling test. Vitamin B12 is an essential vitamin found in the foods such as meat, eggs, and dairy products.
The most chemically complex of all the vitamins, methylcobalamin is a water soluble, organometallic compound with a trivalent cobalt ion bound inside a corrin ring which, although similar to the porphyrin ring found in heme, chlorophyll, and cytochrome, has two of the pyrrole rings directly bonded. The central metal ion is Co (cobalt). Methylcobalamin cannot be made by plants or by animals; the only type of organisms that have the enzymes required for the synthesis of methylcobalamin are bacteria and archaea. Higher plants do not concentrate methylcobalamin from the soil, making them a poor source of the sub- stance as compared with animal tissues.
Mechanism of Action
