Method: Pub Med, Web of Science, Science Direct, Ovid Medline, EBSCO, ProQuest, Google Scholar, and the Scientific Information Database (SID) were searched for English and Persian language studies published between 2009 and 2017. The primary outcome of this review was to assess the effects of behavioral interventions on glycosylated hemoglobin. Changes in the blood pressure, Lipid profiles, BMI, Self-efficacy, knowledge, attitude, practice, Self-care behaviors, social support, anxiety, and depression were the secondary outcomes.
Results: Comprehensive search procedures resulted in twenty-three experimental studies with 2208 participants. Eleven studies were included in the Meta-analysis. Compared with the control group, behavioral interventions significantly lower glycosylated hemoglobin -0.61% (95% CI -0.80, -0.41). To explore the effects of the study intervention (regarding what aspects of the intervention are most effective), we then conducted a stratified analysis for HbA1c. Larger effects were found in interventions with a longer duration and higher intensity, delivered in the group format, interventions offered to individuals with higher baseline HbA1c, and interventions delivered by a multidisciplinary team. Moreover, behavioral interventions were effective in improving blood glucose, lipid profiles, knowledge, attitude, practice, self-efficacy, quality of life, and self-care.
Conclusion: In line with other behavioral studies, our study shows that behavioral interventions improve self-management in Iranian adults with type 2 diabetes.
AIMS: To determine immunogenicity, pharmacokinetics (PK), efficacy, safety and quality of life of prophylaxis with a polyethylene glycol (peg)-ylated FVIII (BAX 855) based on full-length recombinant FVIII (ADVATE) in paediatric previously treated patients (PTPs) with severe haemophilia A.
METHODS: PTPs <12 years without history of FVIII inhibitors received twice-weekly infusions of 50 ± 10 IU kg(-1) BAX 855 for ≥50 exposure days. Prophylactic dose increases to ≤80 IU kg(-1) were allowed under predefined conditions. PK was evaluated after single infusions of 60 ± 5 IU kg(-1) .
RESULTS: T1/2 and mean residence time were extended 1.3- to 1.5-fold compared to ADVATE (n = 31), depending on the analysis used. The point estimate for the mean annualized bleeding rate in 66 subjects receiving a median of 1.9 weekly infusions of 51.3 IU kg(-1) of BAX 855 each was 3.04 (median 2.0); 1.10 (median 0) for joint and 1.16 (median 0) for spontaneous bleeds. Overall, 38% of subjects had zero bleeds. No bleeds were severe. Haemostatic efficacy was rated excellent or good for 90% of bleeds; 91% were treated with one or two infusions. In 8/14 subjects all target joints resolved. No subject developed FVIII inhibitors or persistent binding antibodies that affected safety or efficacy. No adverse reactions occurred.
CONCLUSION: Twice-weekly prophylaxis with BAX 855 was safe and efficacious in paediatric PTPs with severe haemophilia A.
METHODS: This was a cross sectional study design. A total of 347 respondents from low household income groups, including persons with disability and Orang Asli were recruited from E-kasih. A semi-guided self-administered questionnaire was used. QOL measured by EQ. 5D utility value and health status measured by visual analogue score (VAS). Descriptive statistic, bivariate Chi-square analysis and binary logistic regression were conducted to determine factors influencing low QOL and poor health status.
RESULTS: Majority of the respondents were Malay, female (61%), 63% were married, 60% were employed and 46% with total household income of less than 1 thousand Ringgit Malaysia. 70% of them were not having any chronic medical problems. Factors that associated with low QOL were male, single, low household income, and present chronic medical illness, while poor health status associated with female, lower education level and present chronic medical illness. Logistic regression analysis has showed that determinants of low QOL was present chronic illness [AOR 4.15 95%CI (2.42, 7.13)], while determinants for poor health status were; female [AOR 1.94 95%CI (1.09,3.44)], lower education [AOR 3.07 95%CI (1.28,7.34)] and present chronic illness [AOR 2.53 95%CI (1.39,4.61)].
CONCLUSION: Low socioeconomic population defined as low total household income in this study. Low QOL of this population determined by present chronic illness, while poor health status determined by gender, education level and chronic medical illness.
METHODS: A total of 323 dyads of GI cancer patients and their caregivers completed the Medical Outcomes Study 12-item Short Form (MOS SF-12) questionnaire to measure their HRQOL during face-to-face interviews. The analyses were performed using SF-12 scoring software to compute PCS and MCS scores (HRQOL parameters). The independent t test, one-way ANOVA, and the Pearson correlation test were conducted to determine the demographic factors related to the HRQOL of the dyads.
RESULTS: The caregivers had higher scores in all domains for the SF-12 than the patients. There were significant differences found in the MCS scores of the patients according to ethnicity, origin of cancer, duration of cancer, and surgery. None of these factors had a significant relationship with the caregivers' HRQOL.
CONCLUSION: Caregivers had better HRQOL than cancer patients. Early intervention for cancer patients in the form of counselling and personalised pain management may enhance the HRQOL of patients.
METHODS/DESIGN: This is a randomized, single-blind, two-arm, controlled trial in patients with rheumatoid arthritis visiting outpatient rheumatology clinics in Karachi, Pakistan. We will enroll patients with established diagnosis of rheumatoid arthritis over 3 months. The patients would be randomized through a computer-generated list into the control group, i.e., usual care or into the intervention group, i.e., pharmaceutical care, in a ratio of 1:1, after providing signed written consent. The study will take place in two patient-visits over the course of 3 months. Patients in the intervention group would receive intervention from the pharmacist while those in the control group will receive usual care. Primary outcomes include change in mean score from baseline (week 0) and at follow up (week 12) in disease knowledge, adherence to medications and rehabilitation/physical therapy. The secondary outcomes include change in the mean direct cost of treatment, HRQoL and patient satisfaction with pharmacist counselling.
DISCUSSION: This is a novel study that evaluates the role of the pharmacist in improving treatment outcomes in patients with rheumatoid arthritis. The results of this trial could set the foundation for future delivery of care for this patient population in Pakistan. The results of this trial would be published in a peer-reviewed journal.
TRIAL REGISTRATION: ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT03827148 . Registered on February 2019.
OBJECTIVES: To determine a CE threshold for health care interventions in Malaysia.
METHODS: A cross-sectional, contingent valuation study was conducted using a stratified multistage cluster random sampling technique in four states in Malaysia. One thousand thirteen respondents were interviewed in person for their socioeconomic background, quality of life, and WTP for a hypothetical scenario.
RESULTS: The CE thresholds established using the nonparametric Turnbull method ranged from MYR12,810 to MYR22,840 (~US $4,000-US $7,000), whereas those estimated with the parametric interval regression model were between MYR19,929 and MYR28,470 (~US $6,200-US $8,900). Key factors that affected the CE thresholds were education level, estimated monthly household income, and the description of health state scenarios.
CONCLUSIONS: These findings suggest that there is no single WTP value for a quality-adjusted life-year. The CE threshold estimated for Malaysia was found to be lower than the threshold value recommended by the World Health Organization.

One shot or one play doesn't necessarily determine the outcome of a game, coaches and players like to say, because there are so many shots and plays during the course of a game.
But there was one shot Thursday night, by Portland’s
"We gave up a three at the end. That can't happen," Rivers said Thursday night after the game. "No. 1, we should have fouled. That's on me. We had too much indecision. . . . I always foul. And the one time I don't, they score. That's why I always foul. So that one is on me."
"That's on me," Griffin said. "I've got to do a better job on that last play. I've got to get up into Batum and make that switch a little bit harder."
"That three-pointer there at the end, I should have switched out on Batum," Paul said. "Then I had a great shot to win the game there. We shouldn't have even been in the overtime."
Here's how the play went:
With 9.3 seconds left and the Clippers leading, 101-98, Batum took the ball out of bounds in front of the Clippers' bench with Griffin defending him.
Batum inbounded to
As Batum took the first of two dribbles,
By the time Paul realized that Batum was about to pull up for the three-point attempt at the top of the arc, it was too late for him to recover enough on defense. Batum drilled the 26-footer to tie the score at 101-101.
The Clippers still had 5.3 seconds left, but Paul missed a 17-foot jumper. The Clippers eventually lost in overtime, 116-112.
"We've talked about it already now a couple of times," Griffin said about what should have happened on the Batum play. "Like I've said, we've just got to learn from it and move on."

—”Dust of a Thousand Bells,” Lori Goldston
Concerto for Anna Maria dal Violin
The body of a violin is mostly air.
Venezia, a city built of water.
With my bow and the Maestro’s music
I shall set that air on fire.
Though you drained Venezia dry
You could not quench that sound.
We foundling girls, we are like our violins—
Of substance, very little.
In our near nothingness the music resonates,
As in the church bells’ open throats,
In the hollow bones of organ pipes,
In the utter emptiness of angels.
They are music, I think—
The angels. Music unfettered
From all earthly instruments.
When I play, I feel their feathers
All about me in the air.
Melinda Mueller trained as a biologist and is on the science faculty at Seattle Academy of Arts & Sciences. Her most recent book, What the Ice Gets: Shackleton’s Antarctic Expedition, 1914-1916 (Van West & Company) received a 2001 Washington State Book Award and the American Library Notable Books Award for Poetry in 2002.

PITTSBURGH (KDKA) -- We are entering snow season, and almost every year on social media, someone posts a video of snow that doesn't turn to water when it melts after being put up to a flame.
This gets followed up, often times, by conspiracy theories that the snow is fake or "modified".
The video can be compelling, if you stop there.
You must follow through with the science, though.
Before you fall for a conspiracy, you should find out what is happening and what the snow is really composed of.
That is what we are doing today!
Let's look at this melting snow that "doesn't turn into water."
Put a snowball in a bowl on the counter and see if it melts in room temperature air.
After it melts, see what is left behind. Hint: It's water.
If you don't have the time for it to melt on the counter, put the snowball in a pot and turn on the stove.
See if it melts, and what is left behind. You are going to find the same deal. It is water.
Hint: It does.
So, how come this snow does not appear to change to water when it melts in the video? Looks can be deceiving.
First of all, remember when water freezes it expands.
Knowing this and knowing there are air pockets in your snowball it is simple to realize that as the snow melts, it contracts in its water form.
This water is held (absorbed) in the air pockets of the snowball.
This will be the case until the snow runs out of space to hold that water.
Another important factor is that it sometimes doesn't take much water to make a lot of snow!
This goes along with the water expanding as it freezes.
Sometimes, the conspiracy video that is shared shows the snow appear to scorch.
Again, that is not the case. The apparent "scorch" is actually carbon left over from the lighter.
We used a cleaner burning torch for our video, but if you use a butane lighter, the snow can become discolored, like the dirty snow on the side of the road from a car's exhaust. Just on a smaller scale.
There is the real science to debunk the conspiracy of fake snow!

When I landed, I got into a taxi with a few other folks heading to the beach. The driver looked at me sideways. “Esta es tu primera vez?” “Sí,” I replied. “Por qué Zipolite?” I hadn’t quite figured that part out yet, not enough to explain it. I shrugged. He shook his head and drove with his knees so he could use both hands to pantomime hordes of tourists attacking the dry countryside. Behind his miming, the windshield of the car was cracked in … [Read more...] about Want to Love Your Body? Try Swimming Naked.
Pioneer of gospel music rediscovered in Pittsburgh archives
This is a carousel. Use Next and Previous buttons to navigate 18 PITTSBURGH (AP) — Scattered in crates, dirty and difficult to read, the gospel music of composer Charles Henry Pace sat packed away, unorganized — and unrealized — for more than 20 years. Frances Pace Barnes, the pioneering music publisher’s daughter who remembers how he could turn a hum it into a song, knew the crates held pieces of her family’s past. But she was not expecting those decaying printing plates and papers to reveal an important part of gospel music history. “I didn’t know it was going to be a legacy,” said Pace Barnes. As it turns out, her father was one of the first African American gospel music composers in the United States, and the owner of one of the country’s first independent, Black gospel music publishing companies. Today, the University of Pittsburgh is restoring … [Read more...] about Pioneer of gospel music rediscovered in Pittsburgh archives
A Century of Mexican Creativity at Art Basel Hong Kong
MEXICO CITY — Art fairs are full of galleries with dreams of launching the art world’s next big thing. Exhibitors pack their booths with work by promising newcomers and talk them up relentlessly, hoping they will break through with the collectors and critics who wander the aisles. Proyectos Monclova of Mexico City takes a different approach. Instead of banking on the future, it invests in the past, bringing to fairs artists who made their reputations decades ago in Mexico and whose careers it says it believes are ready for a turn in the international spotlight. Alongside all those potential stars of tomorrow on display at this year’s Art Basel Hong Kong are Proyectos Monclova’s lineup of colorful, geometric weavings by 87-year-old Eduardo Terrazas — famous for being a co-designer of the 1968 Mexico City Olympics poster , with its psychedelic black-and-white lettering and rainbow-inspired rings — and stone carvings by Ángela Gurría , a central figure of Mexican Modernism who … [Read more...] about A Century of Mexican Creativity at Art Basel Hong Kong

A lock is a mechanical or electronic fastening device that is released by a physical object (such as a key, keycard, fingerprint, RFID card, security token, coin, etc.), by supplying secret information (such as a number or letter permutation or password), or by a combination thereof or only being able to be opened from one side such as a door chain.
A key is a device that is used to operate a lock (such as to lock or unlock it). A typical key is a small piece of metal consisting of two parts: the bit or blade, which slides into the keyway of the lock and distinguishes between different keys, and the bow, which is left protruding so that torque can be applied by the user. In its simplest implementation, a key operates one lock or set of locks that are keyed alike, a lock/key system where each similarly keyed lock requires the same, unique key.
The key serves as a security token for access to the locked area; locks are meant to only allow persons having the correct key to open it and gain access. In more complex mechanical lock/key systems, two different keys, one of which is known as the master key, serve to open the lock. Common metals include brass, plated brass, nickel silver, and steel.

I read Mark Twain's Puddin'head Wilson as a Classic Comic over sixty years ago. So when I had a chance to download the book for free, I did.
I remembered it was about how two children, one the son of a slave woman and the other the son of a wealthy couple were so identical in appearance that when the slave mother, who had the care of the babies, switched them in their cradles, no one knew and the two grew to adulthood unaware of the truth.
I remembered there was something about fingerprints -- a fledgling science at the time of the novel.
The book is an interesting read for Twain's picture of small town America in slavery days. And, of course, for Twain's wit.
But I was surprised at the memories that came back as I read -- I think that I read this particular comic at my friend Ann Hunsberger's house -- very possibly up in the tree house in the big oak by the sidewalk. I can't be sure but that was what flashed into my mind as I read, along with hazy memories of some of the comic panels -- a closeup of a flashing knife. . . a picture of the two little boys in one little wagon -- one in fancy clothes, one in plain . . .
My Kindle is loaded with all sorts of things to read and listen to. David Sedaris and Let's Explore Diabetes With Owls keeps me company through the night and Patrick Tull is waiting to read the first five or six Aubrey-Maturin books to me. I've just finished Social Life in Old Virginia Before the War and have begun The Lemoncholy Life of Annie Aster.
And am reminded I need to have my recently purchased copy of The Clay Girl brought to me . . .
So many books . . . and so much time . . .

The United States presidential election of 2016 is scheduled for Tuesday, November 8, 2016. This election will mark the fifty-eighth quadrennial US presidential election. The 2016 election will determine the forty-fifth president and forty-eighth vice president of the United States. Between February and June 2016, a series of presidential primary elections and caucuses took place among 50 states, the District of Columbia, and the US territories.
After defeating various candidates in the Republican primary elections, Donald Trump, business figure and reality television personality, became the Republican Party’s presidential nominee on July 19. In opposition, former Secretary of State and New York Senator Hilary Clinton became the Democratic Party’s presidential nominee on July 26. Third-party and independent presidential candidates Gary Johnson (Libertarian Party nominee) and Jill Stein (Green Party nominee) are also running in the election.
Market Realist – Long-term investment
From an investor’s point of view, a Republican or Democrat president and a divided or undivided government are not the best signposts to help structure a portfolio. There are many other market-moving factors, like oil and gas (USO)(UNG) prices, interest rates, technological (QQQ)(SMH) breakthroughs, and industrial (FXR)(IYJ) innovation, to consider in the long run.
Does not matter how big state is, they have the same impact
The most powerful nation on earth is electing a new leader, with the impact felt across the globe. So how does the election work and how did we end up with Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton as the main candidates?
When the US picks its president, it is not only choosing a head of state but a head of government and a commander-in-chief of the largest military on the planet.
It’s a big responsibility. So how does the process work?

There’s a special kind of thrill in having a movie take place in your city. I don’t just mean having been filmed in your city, like basically half of all major productions will be from here on out for Atlanteans. But more like the thrill New Yorkers have had for years, when the film uses the fabric of your city to tell the story, seeing and feeling those little bits of recognition when you know you’ve driven down the same roads those criminals are now barreling down.
Hearing an Atlanta audience chuckle at a joke about Buckhead is one of those rare moments that reminds you of the collective experience that theatergoing can be. It’s the kind of goodwill moment that helped carry me through most of the rest of the unfortunately disappointing Triple 9.
It’s not that Triple 9 is necessarily bad. There’s a good Saturday afternoon popcorn flick in here. Unfortunately, there’s also two or three other strikingly mediocre films mixed in. It’s stuffed to the brim by a cast that seems entirely too qualified for a film that largely asks for masculine grunting and feminine objectification.
We follow a heist team of four, led by Michael Belmont (Chiwetel Ejiofor), an ex-Special Forces man in the grasp of the Russian Jewish Mafia led by the intimidating Irina Vlaslov (Kate Winslet), who controls Michael’s access to his son thanks to Michael’s son being by her sister, Elena (Gal Gadot).
Michael’s team includes the sweaty brothers, Gabe Welch (Aaron Paul) and Russel Welch (Norman Reedus), and two dirty cops, Jorge Rodriguez (Clifton Collins Jr.) and Marcus Atwood (Anthony Mackie). They’ve got “one last job”: to steal confidential files out of a Homeland Security base. To do that, they’re going to have to distract the police with a “Triple 9,” an Officer Down.
We also follow a young cop, Chris Allen (Casey Affleck), transferred in from Buckhead, to work with his uncle Jeffrey Allen (Woody Harrelson) in the toughest part of the city (though, in John Hillcoat’s Atlanta, they all kind of look like tough parts). His new partner Marcus (remember, from the heist team) seems hostile to him, but just as he starts to warm up, things go awry in a trial by fire for the young family man Chris.
As I said, there’s roughly THREE films worth of plot here, possibly more, and enough cast to configure between 10 tough guy crime films. Yet Triple 9 can’t find a heart to any of it. All of this sound and fury ultimately amounts to nothing, leading to a film that’s a lot of fun but doesn’t work as a piece of storytelling by any stretch of the imagination.
It’s not the cast’s fault. They’re all doing the best they can. They may not be having much asked of them, but they’re doing it. Aaron Paul finally brings the wounded puppy thing that worked for him on Breaking Bad to the big screen, Anthony Mackie continues being ruthlessly entertaining, and Chiwetel Ejiofor uses the hell out of his huge expressive eyes. Gal Gadot proves surprisingly enchanting with very little time, despite spending most of the film as an object. To be fair, that’s a statement that holds for the rest of the film’s female characters, minus Kate Winslet’s Russian devil-woman.
The highlight is Woody Harrelson’s Chief Jeffrey Allen, by the virtue of being the only actor given something interesting to work with. Everyone else is doing good work with basic archetypes, Jeffrey’s a broken, drunken junkie who’s also batshit insane (giving Woody plenty of scene chewing time) and a damn good cop. He’s fun and unpredictable.
Which is more than can be said for the rest of the film, which seemingly settles for just being fun. Oh, Triple 9 thinks it’s unpredictable. But its unpredictability is informed by character stupidity. Matt Cook’s script spends so much time setting up the unbelievable skill level of its characters that when it comes time for things to fall apart, it’s too difficult to believably have any of them screw up through normal means, so they just screw up in ways that strike as instantly baffling. I wasn’t surprised because they were so clever, I was surprised because I couldn’t seriously believe they would have done it.
Perhaps it isn’t all on Cook’s script. The bigger problem might be Hillcoat’s direction, which is, like his characters, equal parts incredibly competent and incompetent. His action scenes are well-staged and legitimately tense within individual scenes. When the film is in the midst of its heists and its police work, the film finds a life and an interesting moment or two. But it quickly becomes clear that’s pretty much the whole reason he made this one.
Because there’s almost no coherency from scene to scene. It’s confusing how much time passes from scene to scene, where exactly they are in the grimy dirty ugly version of Atlanta (the whole of which looks like Hillcoat’s world from The Road), or what anybody’s motivation at any particular moment. He seemed to have had an idea for some action sequences and somehow convinced a bunch of great actors to do them with him.
Triple 9 has no purpose and no function. I can’t honestly tell you why anyone but Michael Belmont was doing what they were doing (because of his son) or what Hillcoat thinks he was saying about them, about crime, about Atlanta, about anything besides how cool he thought this stuff was.
To be fair, some of it is really cool, and really enjoyable to watch. There’s some really strong acting and some thrills to be had. But on the whole, it’s just entirely too incoherent, too empty, and too overstuffed to find anything more interesting than an eventual TNT viewing.

A Symphony of Beauty and Harmony in India
Nestled in the lap of the Himalayas, Kashmir stands as a testament to nature’s unparalleled artistry. This enchanting region, often referred to as “Paradise on Earth,” is a jewel in the crown of India. From its majestic snow-capped peaks to the serene Dal Lake, every corner of Kashmir whispers tales of timeless beauty and cultural richness.
Land of Lush Valleys and Majestic Mountains:
As the first rays of the sun kiss the snow-covered peaks of the Pir Panjal range, the entire valley of Kashmir awakens to a magical spectacle. The undulating landscapes, adorned with vibrant meadows and ancient Chinar trees, create a picturesque panorama that seems to be straight out of a dream. The meandering Jhelum River adds a touch of elegance as it flows through the valley, reflecting the surrounding beauty like a mirror.
Dal Lake: A Liquid Canvas of Tranquility:
Dal Lake, often referred to as the “Jewel in the crown of Kashmir,” is a breathtaking expanse of water surrounded by the majestic Himalayas. Shikaras, traditional wooden boats, glide gracefully on the lake’s surface, carrying with them the echoes of a rich cultural heritage. Houseboats line the shores, offering a unique and tranquil abode amidst the pristine waters. The reflection of snow-capped mountains in the lake creates a surreal scene, making it a photographer’s paradise.
The Warm Embrace of Kashmiri Hospitality:
Beyond its natural beauty, Kashmir is celebrated for the warmth and hospitality of its people. The locals, known for their kindness and generosity, welcome visitors with open hearts. Stepping into a traditional Kashmiri home is like entering a sanctuary of love and warmth, where guests are treated as family. The rich tapestry of Kashmiri culture is woven with threads of vibrant traditional music, dance, and exquisite handicrafts, each telling a story of resilience and artistic prowess.
Culinary Delights that Tantalize the Taste Buds:
No visit to Kashmir is complete without indulging in its delectable cuisine. Wazwan, a traditional multi-course meal, is a culinary symphony that showcases the richness of Kashmiri flavors. From the aromatic Rogan Josh to the flavorful Yakhni, each dish is a testament to the culinary artistry passed down through generations. Sipping on a cup of Kashmiri Kahwa, a fragrant green tea infused with spices and saffron, is a soul-soothing experience that lingers in the memory.
The Melody of Unity:
Kashmir is not just a destination; it’s a mosaic of diverse cultures and religions that coexist harmoniously. The region is home to a tapestry of communities, including Hindus, Muslims, and Sikhs, who share a deep connection with the land. The centuries-old shrines, mosques, and temples stand as symbols of a shared history and a testament to the spirit of unity that prevails in this breathtaking land.
In every season, Kashmir dons a different attire, each more enchanting than the last. Whether it’s the snow-covered landscapes of winter, the blossoming flowers of spring, the vibrant colors of autumn, or the cool breezes of summer, Kashmir beckons travelers to immerse themselves in its ever-changing beauty.
As one wanders through the lush valleys, cruises on Dal Lake, and engages with the warm-hearted locals, it becomes evident that Kashmir is not just a place; it’s an experience that touches the soul. It’s a reminder that amid the tumult of the world, there are sanctuaries of serenity and beauty where nature and culture dance together in perfect harmony—Kashmir, the crown jewel of India, a symphony of beauty and peace.

Items interesting to note from the above:
- 1.66 GHz processor eventually available, as well as at an apparently faster bus speed
- 2 GB RAM not explicitly supported, but it may still be an option
- 10.1" WSVGA True Life
- TV tuner via USB
Now, I'm also looking further into it. Only a single LED...the power LED. Also, replacing the memory module doesn't indicate removal of the system board. I suspect they missed a step, as it is most definitely required. And, it's NOT soldered on.
Some of the screenshots when referencing some of the various components and such show either Vista or Windows 7, so one of them will be supported. It's definitely NOT XP. There's also Linux screenshots as well.
WWAN will be available, but it apparently isn't yet. The WWAN card shown is a Sprint card, but I suspect others will be available.
The memory is only offered as 1 GB as it is not considered user serviceable. I'm betting that it will support 2 GB as long as it's not locked in the BIOS. After looking at the chassis, I don't get why they didn't make it user serviceable, but then again, some of the things I have seen Dell (as well as other OEMs) do make no sense to me whatsoever.
A 1024x600 display version will apparently be released post RTS. I will be all over that like a fat kid on a cupcake if they do actually release it (and I'm a fat kid, and I like cupcakes), and the 1024x576 drives me batshit crazy.
I already don't like the touchpad. I don't see specifics as to what it is, other than that it is single touch, not multi touch.
Based on the images, it's not a plastic base. Looks to be the same material all of the other Mini's are made out of.
On the memory note. I compared against the doc of the Mini 9/Inspiron 910, and it only indicated a max of 1 GB RAM as well.

In recent reports, the billionaire philanthropist, George Soros, transferred $18 billion to his philanthropic foundation, Open Society Foundations. His foundation has fought against various injustices and democratic causes throughout the world for several decades now.
In another recent report, Soros wrote for the Atlantic called “The Capitalist Threat”. In this report, George Soros talked about how he came up with “open society” for the name of his foundation. He stated the injustices during the horrific acts of the Holocaust and the Nazis that he read in a book talking about “open society” written by Karl Popper who also talked about the problems/concerns with the Communists regimes, communitarianism, and individualism that occurred after the communism collapse, and how communism and fascism are similar. Other topics Soros talked about in this article were on economic stability, social Darwinism, the Laissez-faire ideology, international relations, and the fallibility promise and their effects.
George Soros Philanthropy & History
Soros philanthropy started in 1979. During this time, he gave black South Africans scholarships while they were under apartheid. During the 1980s, he funded the academic visits to the West. He also supported the independent cultural groups and other things. Other things he’s done through his organization includes him creating the Central European University after the Berlin Wall’s fall, he expanded his organization to Africa, the US, Asia, and Latin America. During the early 2000s, he made efforted supports of same-sex marriage. He also gave to the International Crisis Group, the Global Witness, the Institute for New Economic Thinking, the European Council on Foreign Relations, and the International Crisis Group. He funded the 2016 election heavily in support of Hillary Clinton. He also has been working hard with others in funding against the then President-elect Donald Trump. And in addition to transferring
$18 billion to his philanthropic foundation, Open Society Foundations for democratic causes and injustices, Soros, now in his 80s, is continually being actively invested in his foundation’s work, he travels widely to advocate and work for positive changes in policy with world leaders privately and publicly.
For several decades now, Soros has been fighting the good fight against injustices around the world. And he continues to fight the good fight. From the billionaire philanthropist, George Soros, transferring $18 billion to his philanthropic foundation to travelling and meeting with worldwide leaders, he always funds and provide efforts tirelessly even in his 80s.

For years, researchers have labeled children with specific learning disabilities with many names- word blindness, dyslexia, minimal brain damage, minimal cerebral dysfunction, hyperactivity, and nearly 130 other terms used synonymously to describe this general syndrome.
The term specific learning disability (SLD) was invented in 1963 to describe these children of normal to above-average intelligence. Without any physical deficits or primary emotional disturbance, they have difficulty acquiring basic language skills. This syndrome was clearly identified in 1925 by neuropsychiatrist Samuel Orton, and even as early as 1896 by English scientists Morgan and Kerr.
SLDs are often misunderstood s a single condition that causes a person to reverse letters and read backwards. Dyslexia, a term used to identify this phenomenon, describes only one way learning problems may appear. SLDs may also appear solely or jointly in spelling, math, organization, or motor performance such as handwriting. The pattern for each person is different.
Most experts agree that SLD refers to children who learn through the different way and not those who are unable, unlikely, or unwilling to learn. But because the handicapping condition is invisible, the person remains undiagnosed, mislabeled as a bad or difficult child/student.
Over the past years, many of these children- even those with superior intelligence- were placed in classes with retarded children, in slow tracks, or in classes with severely emotionally disturbed children.
What are the causes?
Probably there is no one cause. Any combination of things could have affected the nervous system somewhere along the way. Current knowledge suggests some of the following factors:
- Chemical imbalances during or following pregnancy
- Difficulties during the delivery
- Maturational lag (the brain’s final maturation is not completed until the early 30s)
- Genetic factors (tends to run in families, more with males)
- Complex biochemical factors
Researchers also observed that there is four times more the likelihood of specific learning disabilities in adopted children than in biological children. Possibly a large number proportion of mothers who place children for adoption receive less than adequate care during pregnancy or have less than adequate diet.
Because so much remains unknown, one cannot yet speak in terms of prevention or cure, but only of the treatment- with a very favorable prognosis. While researchers continue to explore the origins of SLDs, the focus is shifting to diagnosis, treatment, and understanding.
How can parents know?
While signs and symptoms do accompany SLDs, detection is not as simple as administering a five-point screening test. The following five characteristics, particularly in combination, tend to point to a child t high risk for learning disabilities: allergies, complications during delivery, hyperactivity, left-handedness, and male gender.
Teachers and parents are usually first to suspect problems. Consult a pediatrician to rule out temporary or permanent physical conditions such as infections, neurological disease, or brain damage. The physician may refer you to a neurologist or a skilled neuro-developmental specialist who can determine the presence of minimal, or soft neurological signs in a child with potential or actual learning disabilities.
A formal evaluation of the child should include a physical examination; vision, hearing and dental checkups; psychological evaluation (to assess the child’s approach to learning tasks and his emotional development); and n educational evaluation.

China UnionPay is developing a QR code-based mobile payment service that will provide a way to make both online and offline mobile payments, according to Marbridge Consulting.

In the business, a scoring play involving any player larger than, say, 280 pounds is known as a Large Individual Touchdown (LIT); the more vulgar term is Fat Guy Touchdown (FGT), but that’s rude.
What you see here is perhaps the crowning moment in Large Individual Touchdown history: Notre Dame nose tackle Louis Nix III, in all his 350-pound glory, directing the offense from shotgun late in the Fighting Irish’s spring game.
Beyond the rumbling scamper itself, the highlight comes after the Irish break the huddle, when Nix III – who goes by the nickname “Irish Chocolate” – gestures to skill players as if he’s not going to just take the shotgun snap and use 350 pounds of inertia to fall into the end zone.
“Nix is in! Put it in the playbook,” NBC announcer Dan Hicks said during the broadcast. Color analyst Mike Mayock, barely able to contain his enthusiasm, called Nix III “350 pounds of chocolate thunder… rambling downhill, baby!”
Honestly, Nix III runs it perfectly. He gets the snap and looks left, then shifts his feet and looks right; with the rope-a-dope set, he jolts into low gear and moseys in before his momentum causes a tumble eight yards into the end zone.
“That’s what all teams need to be scared of,” Nix said after the game. “All teams need to be scared of ‘Irish Chocolate.’ Everyone. Including you.”

Ireland planning physical infrastructure for Brexit at ports and airports
By Michael McHugh, Press Association
Ireland is stepping up preparations for physical infrastructure at ports and airports after Brexit, the premier said.
Irish ministers held detailed discussions in Dublin on Tuesday surrounding the hiring of customs officers and veterinary inspectors as well as the upgrading of IT systems.
The Republic has held a series of workshops for businesses aimed at getting Ireland Brexit-ready and earmarked money in next year's budget.
Taoiseach Leo Varadkar updated the Dail parliament on negotiations and said: "I cannot say at the moment that decisive progress has been made, but that is something that will play out over the next couple of days in Brussels, and a decision will be made whether or not to have a November summit when we can determine whether that is necessary - we won't be having a summit for the sake of it."
European leaders head to Brussels for the European Council on Wednesday in what Sinn Fein is branding a "crunch" summit, with no agreement on the Irish border backstop.
Mr Varadkar's political rival, Irish Labour Party leader Brendan Howlin, has said a "very dangerous" suggestion is being made in Europe that the backstop issue should be postponed or deferred.
The Taoiseach has not ruled out Britain crashing out of the EU without an agreement next March.
He said: "We are stepping up our preparations for that scenario and we had a detailed discussion at Cabinet today on Brexit and on those discussions and that does include the hiring of customs officials, veterinary inspectors.
"It includes preparing legislation, it includes IT systems and includes preparations to install physical infrastructure at our ports and airports, but not along the land border between Northern Ireland and the Republic."
