Wiggs, M. B293080 ADJ2798585, ADJ2723676 Writ issued 12/3/18
In this case involving admitted 1990s injuries resulting in the need for further medical treatment, whether the Board erred in ordering defendant to serve a nurse case manager with certain medical reports and in ordering the nurse case manager to evaluate applicant and report on the need, frequency and duration of home health care, based on the parties’ 2012 stipulation to use a nurse case manager to evaluate applicant’s health care needs, and not based on Utilization Review and Independent Medical Review.
It will be interesting to see if the current statutorily mandated utilization review and IMR overcomes a prior stipulation of the parties. Stay tuned.

Background: The identification of factors associated with Intensive Care Unit (ICU) mortality and derived clinical phenotypes in COVID-19 patients could help for a more tailored approach to clinical decision-making that improves prognostic outcomes.
Methods: Prospective, multicenter, observational study of critically ill patients with confirmed COVID-19 disease and acute respiratory failure admitted from 63 Intensive Care Units(ICU) in Spain. The objective was to analyze patient’s factors associated with mortality risk and utilize a Machine Learning(ML) to derive clinical COVID-19 phenotypes. Patient features including demographics and clinical data at ICU admission were analyzed. Generalized linear models were used to determine ICU morality risk factors. An unsupervised clustering analysis was applied to determine presence of phenotypes. The prognostic models were validated and their performance was measured using accuracy test, sensitivity, specificity and ROC curves.
Results: The database included a total of 2,022 patients (mean age 64[IQR5-71] years, 1423(70.4%) male, median APACHE II score (13[IQR10-17]) and SOFA score (5[IQR3-7]) points. The ICU mortality rate was 32.6%. Of the 3 derived phenotypes, the C(severe) phenotype was the most common (857;42.5%) and was characterized by the interplay of older age (>65 years), high severity of illness and a higher likelihood of development shock. The A(mild) phenotype (537;26.7%) included older age (>65 years), fewer abnormal laboratory values and less development of complications and B (moderate) phenotype (623,30.8%) had similar characteristics of A phenotype but were more likely to present shock. Crude ICU mortality was 45.4%, 25.0% and 20.3% for the C, B and A phenotype respectively. The ICU mortality risk factors and model performance differed between whole population and phenotype classifications.
Conclusion: The presented ML model identified three clinical phenotypes that significantly correlated with host-response patterns and ICU mortality. Different risk factors across the whole population and clinical phenotypes were observed which may limit the application of a “one-size-fits-all” model in practice.

Comedians who have perfected Jacob Zuma's manner of speaking are unlikely to be affected by a law proposed by the South African Communist Party in KwaZulu-Natal aimed at protecting the office of the president.
SACP general secretary Blade Nzimande said on Wednesday that a law preventing people from insulting a sitting president was more than necessary because white South Africans had shown little respect for black people and their cultures.
The party's KwaZulu-Natal deputy chairperson, Nomarashiya Dolly Caluza, told the Mail & Guardian that imitating Zuma was allowed.
"Yes, that can be done – imitating him. Why are people always picking on the negative things in the manner in which they are portraying the president? He sings, he laughs, he dances – but they will never depict that."
However, painting Zuma naked was simply not on, Caluza said. "If I myself, as a citizen, am drawn naked, this would be disrespectful of me, let alone the president of a country."
So how is it that when a Canadian artist painted her prime minister, Stephen Harper, naked, his office simply laughed it off on Twitter?
"We have African values," said Caluza. "We don't want to see [those aspects] of foreign cultures imposed on us in South Africa. According to African values, respect is the one thing which shows you are a human being … Our president is the chairperson of the African Union [sic], he has been elected to an international education committee, but in his own country he is not respected. We are saying enough is enough. We cannot just keep quiet and let them continue doing this."
Previously, SACP provincial secretary in KwaZulu-Natal Themba Mthembu said discussions on the enactment of a law to protect the office of the president had followed what he called a "barrage of insults" directed at Zuma. But, according to Caluza, even former leaders have been unfairly attacked.
"We've been observing this since 1994, since democracy," she said. "Nelson Mandela was drawn as a baboon – that was an insult to him, the [then] president of our country.
"Also, in 2006, the Democratic Alliance invited the media to go and inspect the home of former president Thabo Mbeki, which was being upgraded. That was an insult, because if you are not happy there are platforms created by our Constitution which allow you to raise these issues."
When asked why the party had only called for an insult law now, Caluza said it was because things had degenerated during Zuma's term.
"We can't have the president – the number one person in the country – being undermined, attacked and insulted through cartoons, through paintings showing him naked, through the different types of media. We have the president attacked on a daily basis. This can't be correct, because he is an ambassador for the country."
Caluza said the party was not saying the president was immune from criticism, but that appropriate platforms had to be used when criticism was necessary.
"One of the principles of the SACP is criticism and self-criticism, but what we are saying is that these people who are undermining and doing these things in the name of freedom of expression and democracy are not criticising. When we say criticism and self-criticism, there is a platform where these things can happen. There is Parliament where these issues must be raised. There's also a public protector. People are aware of these platforms where they can engage positively."
The Democratic Alliance and the Congress of the People constituted an "anti-majoritarian liberal offensive", she said. "They will run from platforms created for such discussions, because they fear that they are a minority which will be outvoted, so they opt to go to the media instead. They know in Parliament the rule of the majority will prevail."
However, Caluza said the insult law would protect white presidents too: "That law will protect even the president in office 20 years from now. Even if the DA takes over, that law will protect Helen Zille as president of the country. I know that will never happen, but I'd like to see that appearing [in your article]."
Taking offence around the world
According to Nomarashiya Dolly Caluza, the deputy chairperson of the South African Communist Party in KwaZulu-Natal, insult laws are nothing new. "They exist in other countries. Remember what happened to the person who called the queen a whore, what happened to the man who insulted the king in Thailand. Even the United States has insult laws protecting people, especially public figures …" she said.
Even though international judicial bodies such as the European Court of Human Rights and the Inter-American Court of Human Rights have ruled that such laws violate the fundamental right to free speech and a free press, many countries still use them, according to the Middle East Partnership Initiative's website.
- In 2006, the World Press Freedom Committee published a report that studied how insult laws were applied, changed or eliminated in 70 countries.
- Project director Javier Sierra said some of the worst abusers of insult laws at that time included Iran, Turkey, Belarus, Zimbabwe and Morocco. Insult laws originated in the Roman Empire "to shield the emperor from public criticism," according to the World Press Freedom Committee website.
- Last year, Thai-born American Joe Gordon was convicted of translating excerpts of an unauthorised biography of King Bhumibol Adulyadej from English into Thai and posting them online. He was sentenced to two and a half years in prison before receiving a royal pardon in July.
Gordon recently told the media that those jailed under Thai laws protecting the royal family often suffered abuse from prison guards, who treated them like "animals". However, a number of countries, especially in Latin America and Africa, are eliminating these laws. Indonesia's Constitutional Court declared as unconstitutional laws that banned insulting the country's president and vice-president a few years ago. And although a number of US states and territories have laws on criminal defamation, they are rarely used.
The US's Founding Fathers once enacted a law against journalistic freedom called the Sedition Act of 1798, which criminalised publication of what were considered insults against the country's president and members of Congress. The Act expired in 1801 without facing a test in court and was denounced by many respected statesmen at the time, including Thomas Jefferson. –

Businesses and homes in the the south-western Guyanese town of Bartica in Region Seven (Cuyuni-Mazaruni) were Wednesday under several inches of flood waters, officials said.
Mayor Gifford Marshall said the situation was forecast to worsen by extremely high tides. “As a consequence of the intense rainfall, we have noticed flooding in all of the constituencies,” he said.
Mr. Marshall said the pumps and a koker are functioning. The Mayor said he has since contacted Minister of Public Works Juan Edghill who has promised support to bring relief to the residents. “We are working to see how best we can reduce the impact and bring as much relief as possible under the difficult circumstances,” he said.
The Mayor of Bartica said at about 5 PM or 6 PM Wednesday the town is expected to experience the highest spring tide. Already, the Public Works Ministry has warned of more than 10-foot high tides on Wednesday and Thursday. “We have to try and get most of this water out,” he said.
As of about 4 PM, the Mayor said the water has receded from most of the constituencies but his warning remained in effect because of the impending high tide. “Flood waters in a number of constituencies would have receded.However, in light of the anticipated spring tides this evening we ask that you prepare and take all necessary measures to secure your property,” he said.
Bartica, the administrative and commercial capital of Region Seven, has a population of at least 10,000 persons.

On this installment of ST, we present a conversation with Wayne McGregor, who's the artistic director of Random Dance, which is the Resident Company at Sadler's Wells Theatre in London; McGregor is also the Resident Choreographer of The Royal Ballet. Indeed, he's among the leading names in the ballet world, known for his ground-breaking collaborations in the areas of dance, film, music, visual art, technology, and science.
Today, we welcome back to our program Marcello Angelini, who's been the artistic director at Tulsa Ballet since 1995. As a critic writing for Dance Insider once noted: "To look at what Marcello Angelini has accomplished [since he arrived at] Tulsa Ballet is to see what a community-based arts revolution looks like." The glorious revolution continues with a new production --- the final show of the 2011-2012 season --- called "Off the Floor: Creations in Studio K," which will soon be staged at Tulsa Ballet's Studio K facility in Brookside (at 1212 East 45th Place South).

Liberty and Health Care for All
In a bare basement law school classroom last week, four students argued the merits and weaknesses of the health care act. It was an exercise no doubt replicated around the country as legal scholars warmed up for the U.S. Supreme Court’s three-day hearing on the law this week — the most searching examination of federal power in decades.
Several miles away at a community health clinic, restaurant workers, gardeners, housekeepers, car washers, nannies, day laborers and others of the low paid who keep Los Angeles running were being given medical care, as were their families. The long-term future of their care awaited the Supreme Court’s decision.
The USC Gould School of Law’s moot court and the Venice Family Clinic offered me enlightening looks at the legal, medical and humanitarian issues involved in this case. The moot court was a useful briefing on what would be discussed by the Supreme Court. The clinic demonstrated the impact of the health care case on the ground.
Barbara Siegel, whom I had met when she was a lawyer representing the poor, had invited me to attend her law school’s moot court on the constitutionality of the law. Three lawyers, including Carlos Moreno, a retired justice of the California Supreme Court, heard the arguments of students representing the federal government and the state of Florida, one of the plaintiffs before the Supreme Court.
They went through the arguments that were heard in the high court the following week: Can Congress mandate the purchase of health insurance? If so, what about broccoli or burial insurance? If we strike down the individual mandate, will we strike down the entire law? One of the judges asked whether Congress should be forbidden from coming up with new ways of solving the problem of health care for the uninsured. “Are you arguing Congress can’t do anything new?”
Solicitor General Donald Verrilli, representing the federal government, dealt with this point as he argued for the Affordable Care Act’s expansion of Medicaid, which serves the poor, as well as the individual mandate. (By requiring everyone to buy health insurance, it would create a pool of policyholders big enough to support policies for low- and middle-income people, even those with prior medical conditions). “There is an important connection, a profound connection, between that problem and liberty. And I do think it’s important that we not lose sight of that,” Verrilli told the court.
Affected, he said, “will be millions of people with chronic conditions like diabetes and heart disease, and as a result of the health care that they will get, they will be unshackled from the disabilities that those diseases put on them and have the opportunity to enjoy the blessings of liberty. And the same thing will be true for a husband whose wife is diagnosed with breast cancer and who won’t face the prospect of being forced into bankruptcy to try to get care for his wife and face having to raise his children alone. … ”
Congress, he said, “struggled with the issue of how to deal with this problem of 40 million people without health care for many years and it made a judgment, and its judgment is one that is, I think, in conformity with lots of experts’ thoughts. … ”
One such expert is Elizabeth Benson Forer, chief executive officer of the Venice Family Clinic, located in a part of West Los Angeles best known for its beach, a destination for swimmers and surfers of all income brackets, tattooists, other artists, dog walkers and an oceanfront walk full of characters and medical marijuana shops. Crazy, mindless L.A., a visitor might say.
Not quite. The carefree reputation of Los Angeles’ Westside masks many poor neighborhoods. From these neighborhoods come the more than 25,000 men, women, children, teens and seniors treated at the clinic by primary care physicians, specialists, mental health experts and dentists. Some of the elderly are treated at home. Most are poor, either working or unemployed. Most have no health insurance. A total of 61 percent are Latino, 23 percent Caucasian, 11 percent African-American and 3 percent Asian.
I know the clinic pretty well. I’ve toured it and interviewed some of the staffers. One of my daughters, a nurse, was a volunteer there. On Monday, as the Supreme Court opened the health care act hearings, I talked to Forer on the telephone and asked her what was at stake in the deliberations.
For community clinics like Venice, she said, “there are a number of things at stake. A number of people we see with no insurance will have insurance. People who are not eligible for Medi-Cal [as Medicaid is known in California] will get Medi-Cal. Our hopes are that between 30 to 50 percent of our clients will be eligible for Medi-Cal.
“It’s about time we are working toward where everyone has health care and coverage,” she said. “I hope the court finds this law needs to be continued.”
A visit to her clinic and to others like it would convince anyone of the need for the law. So should the eloquent words of Verrilli in defending the act before the court in his closing remarks Wednesday. The pundits gave him bad reviews and are predicting the Supreme Court, in a 5-4 decision, will declare the individual mandate and other parts of the law unconstitutional. For the sake of the patients, like those at the Venice Family Clinic, present and future, I hope the pundits are wrong.Wait, before you go…

Irish Water contractors paying staff less than agreed rate
COMPANIES installing water meters have been caught paying their workers below agreed rates.
Irish Water said that auditors had identified a "low number" of cases where workers were being paid lower hourly rates than those agreed with trade unions in advance of the metering programme beginning last August.
It said that up to 25 workers were affected, and that it would continue to carry out spot-checks at sites across the country. "Twenty to 25 workers are involved in potential incidents of non-compliance," a spokeswoman said. The admission came after trade union SIPTU claimed that as many as 500 workers could be affected in sites in Dublin city and county, Meath, Kerry, Cork, Limerick, Tipperary, Wexford and Mayo.
"We've been visiting the sites and speaking to workers," SIPTU spokesman Pat McCabe said. "This is something we've been working on to ensure that workers on the installation programme are getting the entitlements they were due. The understanding was the rates of pay would be that arising from the registered agreements in the construction sector."
He said that experienced construction workers should receive a minimum of €15.14 an hour. Some, he claimed, were receiving up to €3 less per hour worked. There were also issues about overtime not being paid at premium rates, no sick pay schemes being in place and workers not being included in pension schemes.
"It is up to Irish Water to ensure the contractors comply with those terms and conditions," Mr McCabe said. "There is a certain level of a fear factor. Irish Water are saying that as far as they're concerned, they don't recognise it's a problem. They are carrying out audits and said everything is okay. We don't believe that's the case."
Details about one specific sub-contractor had been given to Irish Water in the last 10 days, SIPTU said.
In a statement, Irish Water said it was "fully engaged" with SIPTU officials on a monthly basis and that workers would be paid in line with the construction industry registered agreements.
"Irish Water is satisfied that our contractors are currently compliant with all of the contract terms in relation to pay and conditions."
But it added: "Our auditing process has identified a low number of incidents of noncompliance. When this has happened, contractors were given a short timeframe to become fully compliant and Irish Water continues to work with the contractors to investigate and rectify any issues."
The identity of the offending companies or sub-contractors at the centre of the allegations have not been disclosed.

Mark Sanford picked up an endorsement Tuesday from U.S. Sen. Rand Paul.
Paul, a tea party favorite and potential 2016 presidential candidate, touted the former GOP governor’s fiscal conservatism.
“More than anything, Washington needs strong and consistent voices for fiscal responsibility and liberty,” Paul, R-Ky., said. “Mark has proven during his time in office that watching out for taxpayers and holding the line on spending are his top priorities. What we absolutely cannot afford is someone like his opponent, who will be yet another vote for a return to the Pelosi speakership, for disastrous programs like Obamacare, and for more spending and debt. I am pleased to endorse Mark and stand with him in this race.”
Paul’s father, former U.S. Rep. Ron Paul, also has endorsed Sanford in the 1st Congressional District race. Sanford faces Democrat Elizabeth Colbert Busch and Green Party candidate Eugene Platt in the May 7 election.

From: Jaroslav Reznik <jrez...@redhat.com>
Organization: Red Hat, Inc.
= Proposed System Wide Change: Access control in PCSC =
Change owner(s): Nikos Mavrogiannopoulos <n...@redhat.com>
Add access control to PC/SC smart cards available in the system. Adding
control would (a) prevent unauthorized processes/users from reading data

card, (c) prevent unauthorized processes/users from talking to the smart
== Detailed Description ==
Add access control to PC/SC smart cards available in the system. Currently
smart cards may provide their own access control for certain elements of a
card such as a private key. Their access control method is typically a PIN,
but can also be a biometric based one. That however, is not sufficient to
prevent certain actions on the non-PIN protected elements. For example
that provide a PKCS #15 filesystem can be modified by anyone that has
the system (e.g., erased using pkcs15-init -E).
The default settings allowed should be similar to the default settings for
hard disks, i.e., root and the user in console should be able to access the
Adding access control would
* prevent unauthorized processes/users from reading data on a smart card
* prevent unauthorized processes/users from erasing a smart card
* prevent unauthorized processes/users from talking to the smart card
The way access control will be implemented is using polkit which is already
being used to control access to hard disks. As smart cards share a lot with
hard disks (e.g., a filesystem, and are inserted by the console user),
the same access control method is beneficial.
== Scope ==
polkit support has to be added to PC/SC daemon. An initial version has
been developed and communicated upstream
* Proposal owners: The polkit support has to be merged with the Fedora
package. That requires changes to the pcsc daemon only, but indirectly all
packages that potentially may use smart cards are affected (opensc,
* Other developers: Packages that use PC/SC smart cards must be checked
they work as expected after the access control change.
* Release engineering: No coordination is required.
* Policies and guidelines: If there is any security policy documentation
should be updated to include the new policies on smart cards (I couldn't
any such documentation though)

Every week a reader gets a chance to put a travel question to the Been there community. Check out how this works
This week's question:My partner and I will be spending Easter in Armenia. We are planning to stay there for nine days, hire a car and drive around to see as many things as possible (given the country is quite small). We have only booked flights via Moscow so far. Does anyone have any suggestion for places to stay or itineraries to follow? We would be particularly keen to hear about good B&B accommodation and peculiar places that are usually not on tourist guides.Marco
Marco, having lived in rural Armenia for four years, I can tell you it is a wonderful country. I too will be spending Easter in Armenia, although I am travelling via Paris as I find Moscow to be a bit unpleasant and not worth the £30 savings on the ticket.
I know many of the tour guides and tour operators because I helped in development of the sector. The best value and most interesting tour is from Envoy Hostel
- quaint, bespoke and very insightful into Armenian life. Gevorg, the guide, is a fun young man full of passion to share the Armenian culture.
I would highly recommend going to Sevan Lake (an hour north out of the capital Yerevan) and eating at the Bashinjaryan Tea House. The staff do not speak English, but the experience will be wonderful. I do believe they have English menus, but if not they will provide a mobile phone to call the owner who will gladly relay your order to the staff. You will find the Tea House 5km south of Sevan City going towards Gavar.
I would spend at least a day in Dillijan, an hour down the mountain from Sevan. I recommend Nina B&B
. Also, you need to have a full meal at the Georgian Restaurant which is the best in the country. There is no sign and finding it will require asking people but it is next to the new hotel complex at the top of the main street in Dillijan. Just ask for "Veratsakan Restanant" (ver-ats-a-kan). Do not be fooled by the Soviet exterior - the food is out of this world. You will not have any menu so just order "saladt", "kievski cutlet", khnkali (kh-kal-lee [with kh at the back of the throat]) and of course Georgian wine (prounouned ghin-ee).
I would then continue to Vandzor. It is a lovely city with a large English speaking population and numerous B&Bs so simply ask around for a place to stay - but go and see it before you agree to stay the night. A B&B in Armenia is code for "my extra bedroom", so most B&Bs when they do not have guests are simply a family home. Sometimes it can be a bit uncomfortable for a Westerner, but if you allow yourself to enter into this culture it is wonderfully welcoming.
I could continue and write a whole itinerary to see the south of Armenia which is very different to the north. Do know that in every town there is a significant British and American population. Just ask for the "Angliasti" [angli-ats-ee] and soon you will be pointed to an American or Brit who speaks Armenian or Russian. I've met over a hundred of these people in Armenia and they are easy to find as the Armenian culture is known for keeping a watchful eye out over its guests.
As for me, I will be spending my Easter volunteering in Gavar Armenia where I am on a not-for-profit board for Gavar Special School
. We hope to educate and provide medical services to the over 700 special needs children who have never received a day of education. Look at the website as I and others will be in Gavar and there is always room for more people to help.
If I can help provide more information about Armenia, do let me know. It is a land I love and miss everyday.
Best wishes,Jason Sprague
For those thinking of travelling to Armenia I would suggest to contact Sati Armenia
tour and travel company.Varooj
You have to visit Khor Virap, where Saint Gregor was imprisoned for 13 years in a hole in the ground. When I say hole I mean a big, deep hole - you can get down into it and it is well worth the visit. As essentially the birthplace of adopted Christianity it is a must see. Also Garni - a Greek style temple overlooking a gorge in excellent condition. Seriously you can't miss this. And the Genocide Museum - just go.
Off the usual track are the Areni Vinyards. Take a drive out to the wine region of Areni, as you get there you'll see on the left a stone fronted winery which you will find to be most welcoming. Go down into their cellars and appreciate tasting the reds. It is well worth it. Get a few bottles of the Areni 91 if they have any left. It is surprisingly cheap and tastes great.
My uncle has a fruit farm in Artashat, 30 minutes south of Yerevan. He'll be happy to let you help out on the farm for the day and won't charge you a penny for the pleasure. He is a great guy with a wonderful smile and if you know how to play backgammon he will treat you to a game over a BBQ of the most gorgeous pork kebabs. The paper have my details if you want to know how to contact him.
Most people go to Lake Sevan (not my cup of tea in truth), but not many continue the 30 minutes to a tiny hard-to-find lake in the mountains beyond. Well worth the visit, but likely you'd need a guide to point the way. It's so off the track I don't know its name, nor how to give you a good idea of how to find it, except it is on the right, off the main road!
There is a Georgian restaurant in Yerevan down the end of Saya Nova Avenue on the other side of the park there. Walk away from the cascade past the Ani Plaza hotel (have it on your left) and it is 15 minutes down there and well worth the visit.
I've lived in Armenia for years, and prepared this nine day itinerary for anyone that wanted to visit to use as a starting point in planning their trip. It can be adjusted as much as necessary, or used pretty much as is.

Realme Race flagship phone is due to be launched soon. The tipster has now claimed that Race is going to be called the Realme GT in India. And the reason for this information is the new trademark that Realme has recently registered. For now, it’s not clear what GT might mean, and even if there’s a catchy two-word phrase that Realme has reserved for this phone, GT seems out of place.
Contrary to the consensus that the 2021 flagship of Realme will be called X60 Pro. This phone will retain the legacy of Realme’s flagship phone series. Realme did not say whether this trademark belongs to the flagship of Race or a smartphone. This trademark registration comes days after Realme has been certified by Realme Race on the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) website. That means that the flagship phone is ready to be launched in India. Hence, the launch date is not yet available.
The Realme Race bears the model number RMX2022, as shown on the various certification websites. Realme has already confirmed that the Race flagship has powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 888, which brings the best of the Android world sector. The rest of the specifications are rumored, such as 125W fast charging on a 5000mAh battery, wireless charging, a 3K resolution and 160Hz high refresh rate Super AMOLED display, and even a 64MP triple camera system on the back. The smartphone comes with 125W Fast Separately. Realme has recently launched the X7 Pro and X7 smartphones in India. Both smartphones come with 5G support, facilitated by a MediaTek Dimensity 1000+ chipset on the former and a Dimensity 800U processor on the latter. Not only 5G, but these processors also deliver good performance, improved software stability, camera enhancements, and image processing. Both phones also bring fast charging technology to the mid-range segment. Everything on these phones is good for the price they’re asking for, except one thing that I think should be a pressing concern, the 5G.

Truth is a tendency.
How dreadful knowledge of the truth can be when there's no help in the truth.
I hope that real love and truth are stronger in the end than any evil or misfortune in the world.
Never apologise for showing feeling. When you do so, you apologise for the truth.
If everyone demanded peace instead of another television set, then there'd be peace.
The meaning of peace is the absence of opposition to socialism.
A truth that's told with bad intent beats all the lies you can invent.
Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that.
Anything worth doing is worth doing slowly.
I do not want the peace which passeth understanding, I want the understanding which bringeth peace.
There is no 'way to peace,' there is only 'peace.
Rats and roaches live by competition under the laws of supply and demand; it is the privilege of human beings to live under the laws of justice and mercy.
Man is least himself when he talks in his own person. Give him a mask, and he will tell you the truth.
Rather than love, than money, than fame, give me truth.
Do not trust all men, but trust men of worth; the former course is silly, the latter a mark of prudence.
Establishing lasting peace is the work of education; all politics can do is keep us out of war.
Where ignorance is our master, there is no possibility of real peace.
The truth may be out there, but the lies are inside your head.
The practice of forgiveness is our most important contribution to the healing of the world.
Sometimes the truth hurts. And sometimes it feels real good.
Those who cry the loudest are not always the ones who are hurt the most.

After months of anticipation, Samsung has put a firm release date on the Galaxy Mega Phablet. The large phone-tablet hybrid was first announced back in April, but it was only Monday that we finally learned exactly when we would be able to get our hand(s) on it.
Samsung’s incredibly popular Galaxy line-up has been steadily receiving new additions all year. The flagship S4 has spawned new variations including a more “rugged” waterproof version, a Google edition with a stock Android OS, the Zoom Edition with a more powerful camera, and an S4 Mini, not to mention the Galaxy Note and Galaxy Tab.
The Mega phablet bridges the size gap between tablet and smartphone – perhaps the only remaining hole in Samsung’s Galaxy inventory. With the S4 Mini’s display reportedly measuring 4.3 inches, the Galaxy S4 smartphone screen coming in at 5 inches, the Galaxy Note II measuring 5.5 inches, and the Galaxy Tab 3 coming in both 8 and 10.1-inch options, the Galaxy Mega’s 6.3-inch 720x1280 HD display hits that sweet spot right in the middle.
Like its companion gadgets, the Galaxy Mega will utilize Samsung’s popular software and powerful hardware. Air View, Multi Window, S Translator, ChatOn, and WatchOn will all come standard, operating on the Android 4.2.2 Jelly Bean OS. It will come with either 8GB or 16GB of internal storage, and also include a microSD slot for expandable memory. The Galaxy Mega will run on the same 1.7 GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon processor that powers the HTC First and HTC Mini.
The Galaxy Mega might seem to round out Samsung’s Galaxy smartphone offering, but may also just be the next addition in a long, evolving line of products. While tablets and smartphones have carved out their markets by offering distinct benefits, phablets walk the line in the middle, earning both praise and criticism. It may be due to their nature – larger than an average phone, smaller than a normal tablet. Some people enjoy having a compromise of two devices in one unit, preventing them from needing to buy both. Others find the hybrid approach to be anything but the Goldilocks of gadgets. Regardless, Samsung has a lot of fans, and anticipation for any new Galaxy device is always palpable.
The Galaxy Mega Phablet officially releases this Friday, August 23rd. It will initially sell for $149.99 with a two-year contract through Sprint, US Cellular, and AT&T, or for $24/month through AT&T’s Next Plan. Pick it up in Nova Black or Polaris White.

"Shoe box units" a big hit among home buyers
Total primary sales of homes rose strongly +83%QoQ in the first quarter of the year on the back of buyers’ preference for units of less than 30 square meters.
Data from the URA showed that the tiny home spaces made up 27% of the 6, 458 primary units sold in 1Q112.
According to DMG Research, developers are cashing in on this preference by launching more homes in the mass segment during the quarter (6,903 units launched, +68%QoQ), which resulted in 82% of total units sold in the mass segment during 1Q12.
The analyst said the recent private residential take-up reflects the current price sensitivity of buyers, with now 42% of total transacted units for units at pricing <S$750,000.
In line with the flash estimate 1Q12 PPI, URA released 1Q12 private residential data showing overall private residential prices declining -0.1%QoQ following +0.2%QoQ in 4Q11.
Following a gradual deceleration of residential prices, private residential prices now see a decline in prices for the first time since 2Q09.
The decline is mainly driven by the CCR and RCR segments with declines of -0.6%QoQ, versus firm prices in the mass segment +1.1%QoQ for the OCR segment.
Figures for resale transactions were also at their lowest since 1Q09, DMG Research noted.
1Q12 registered 1,143 resale transactions, c.21.8% of total transactions. Resale prices, meanwhile, eased -0.7%QoQ, versus the +0.2%QoQ marginal price increase for sub-sale transactions which accounted for 3.6% of total sales transactions.
“We believe the easing of resale prices is mainly attributed to demand shifting to the primary launches during the quarter. While we noted an uptick in resale volume in Mar 12 likely attributed to firm primary sales in Feb 12 at firm prices, demand in the private secondary market could still remain weak which may pose a drag to primary/overall prices moving forward,” the analyst said.

Erin Hills Golf Course in tiny Erin, Wisconsin will play host to the 2017 U.S. Open June 15-18. While it hosted the 2011 U.S. Amateur, it is still unusual for the USGA to award its premier event to a course that is so relatively new and unknown. Since opening in 2006, Erin Hills has already undergone extensive renovations in order to satisfy USGA requirements. From the regulation back tees the course measures 7,820 yards, with another set of tees even further back measuring over 8,300 yards. There isn’t a par-5 on the course measuring less than 600 yards, and only four of the 10 par-4s are under 460 yards. But despite its length, Erin Hills is by all accounts a fair test of golf. That said, setting up U.S. Open golf courses to please the players is not something that the USGA is inclined to do.
Bashing U.S. Open courses is old hat among tour players. From the noise some players made about Chambers Bay in 2015, you’d think no one holed a single putt all week when in fact there was some pretty good scoring in the early rounds, at least by U.S Open standards. Much of the negative chatter revolved around the greens and the effect of poa annua on the fine fescue grass. It’s a combination that makes the putting surfaces look splotchy and get bumpy because the grasses grow at different rates throughout the day. That was the issue at Pebble Beach in 2000 and again 2010 with Tiger Woods moaning about “awful greens,” even though he lapped the field in 2000 to win his first U.S. Open by 15 strokes. It’s why he doesn’t play the Pebble Beach Pro-Am. But the real bashing at Pebble during the 2010 U.S. Open was reserved for the difficulty of the 14th and 17th greens in particular, which prompted Ryan Moore to say that USGA setups made him “hate golf for about two months.”
Actually, fan surveys on this topic show that more fans enjoy watching the pros struggle with a difficult golf course rather than watching them rip up an easy course. That’s probably because the former is much rarer than the latter. And if the pros are not complaining about the greens, then it’s about the rough. That was the case in 2007 when Phil Mickelson pronounced the rough at Oakmont “absolutely dangerous” after hurting his wrist during a practice round several weeks before the tournament. The same was true at the U.S. Open dubbed “The Massacre at Winged Foot” in 1974. The rough was so deep and thick that players were taking members of the media out onto the golf course, dropping balls into the rough, and saying “try hitting it.” Hale Irwin who won with a score of 7-over called Winged Foot “the most difficult golf course I have ever played.” When Jack Nicklaus was asked to comment on the challenge of Wing Foot’s finishing holes, he said, “The last 18 of them are very difficult.”
U.S. Open courses are typically the most challenging of the year and as former USGA Executive Director David Fay once said the USGA always wants its national championship “to be the world’s toughest golf tournament.” Expect nothing less at Erin Hills.

When it comes to Israeli food, your first thought might be hummus and falafel. But another street food delicacy has been growing in popularity in Israel over the years. That would be sabich, an Iraqi-Jewish concoction of fried eggplant, hard-boiled eggs, fries, salad, tahini, and sauces stuffed into thick pita. Never heard of it? That’s what the Israeli founders of Eggs and Plants want to change.
“Not only did we miss the taste of sabich and shakshuka with no place to get it, this is also a flavor we really wanted to introduce to the American palate,” says cofounder Itamar Shlomo.
The tiny vegetarian restaurant — similar to an Israeli food stand — opened late last year in downtown Seattle. Besides sabich, the limited menu offers shakshuka (poached eggs in tomato sauce), Yemenite malawach (puffed pastry with a hard-boiled egg and tomato sauce), fruit shakes, espresso, pastries, and, yes, hummus and falafel.
The little eatery fills up quickly during lunchtime with local workers, but according to Shlomo, Israelis and Jews turn out on the weekends for the fluffy homemade pita. Shlomo, the master behind the dishes, ran a branch of the Cannibar burger bar chain back in Haifa. He stresses how important it is to make his food an authentic experience.
“We spend a lot of time refining our products, adjusting sometimes on a daily basis,” he says. “We’re open to any feedback from our customers.”

Anne Hathaway is Engaged. Again.
After three years together, Anne Hathaway is engaged to actor Adam Shulman, her rep confirms to Us Weekly.
“We hit it off immediately, but it took us a pretty long time to get together,” Hathaway has said. After they realized they were both single, the actress reveals that “things sped up a bit — and I think I’ll leave it at that.”
“So far, it’s worked out great,” the Dark Knight Rises actress told Harper’s Bazaar of her guy, adding that Shulman was far more “mellow” than her previous romances.
And by previous romances, Anne Hathaway means her last fiance Raffaelo Follieri who was arrested for dressing up like a Catholic priest in a massive real estate scam. So at this rate, it’s only a matter of time until we learn Adam Shulman runs a football program for underprivileged kids that heavily emphasizes personal hygiene. “Every Boy Needs a Shower,” I’m gonna guess will be their motto.

Most of you all have probably heard that SABS expanded once again and we are super pumped about it. We have added 3 stations to make our system total 23 stations and about 230 bikes... not bad that we have almost doubled the amount of stations and bikes in the program in a little more than a year! SABS is certainly well on the way to meeting its ultimate goal.
The key to any bike share system's success, no matter where it is located, is density. Yes, a city that already had a large commuter base to start out with may have an easier time in the beginning with ridership; but, ultimately denisity is what makes or breaks a bike share system. The greater the number of stations, the greater
connectivity of the system to provide more bikes to San Antonians. San Antonio B-cycle wants to reach the greatest population of individuals in the most efficient
and effective way. As we continue to add to the number of stations and bikes in our fleet, our dream of being a bicycling commmunity becomes more of a reality.
The ultimate goal is to have 500 bikes and 50 stations. Wouldn't it be awesome to be downtown, and even further out to its nearby corridors, like Broadway, and see a station within eyesight at all times? Pretty cool thought... and we think we might just get there!
Check out our website for more info on where the new stations are located...
B-fit, B-green, B-cycle!

The simulation and its limitations
The most obvious limitation of the simulation is its restriction to two dimensions. Surface diffusion on the screen thus only takes place along a line, and atoms are rather more likely to meet each other than in three-dimensional reality. A second less-obvious consequence is that the crystallography of real semiconductors is not reproduced on the screen (silicon and GaAs adopt the "diamond cubic" structure whereas our simulation implies a close-packed fcc structure). Thirdly we have not allowed you to change the rate of production of the deposited atoms. In an MBE reactor this would be controlled via the temperature of the (solid or liquid) sources of gas phase atoms. The simulation must be regarded as a "model" which demonstrates many (but certainly not all) of the behaviours of the real crystals. Another simplification is that the possible existence of impurity or dopant atoms is ignored. This is obviously of huge importance in the device industry, but makes very little difference to the behaviour simulated in this TLP.
However despite all these limitations the model is based soundly on the physics of atomic interactions, and incorporates key aspects of the movement of atoms across surfaces ("surface diffusion") including thermal activation. Atoms will therefore show a greater probability of moving from their original position, across the surface, at higher temperatures. It also takes into account the possibility that the relaxed lattice parameter of the deposited crystal might not be the same as that of the substrate crystal. This often occurs in heteroepitaxy, leading to the build-up of strain in the growing layer. The simulation correctly models many of the behaviours observed during the epitaxial growth of real crystals.
The three common growth modes have the following characteristics:
- Frank-van der Merwe: each layer of deposited atoms is completed before the next layer starts to form. The surface at any instant will be flat or will contain a few monolayer steps.
- Volmer-Weber (island growth): each deposited atom attaches to an island (or incipient particle); islands grow appreciably before joining up to cover the substrate completely. The surface at any instant will not be flat, and the substrate may not be entirely covered.
- Stranski-Krastanov: initially the deposited atoms form one or more perfect layers but this is followed by island growth. The surface is therefore initially flat but develops to become less flat.
Click on this link to launch the epitaxial growth simulation in a new window.
Please note that the simulation is for educational purposes only, and the accuracy of the data contained within it is not guaranteed.
An effective way of using this TLP is to experiment for a few minutes with the simulation, in order to familiarise yourself with its operation, before attempting to answer the following questions, many of which will require that you experiment with the effect of specific variables on the simulated growth, in order to explore different growth regimes. The simulation offers you by default 100 atoms to deposit (three to four atomic layers), but if you need more to see how the film develops, simply increase the number using the slider control.
Notes about the simulation parameters:
- Temperature is shown as Tm, the temperature of the substrate expressed as a fraction of its melting temperature.
- Bond strengths are in arbitrary units on a scale from 0 to 100, where zero implies no bonding and 100 is a strong bond which is unlikely to be broken except at high temperatures.
- Lattice parameter difference is the percentage difference between the natural lattice parameters of the substrate material and the deposit material. If this is non-zero then for epitaxy to occur the deposit must be strained to fit the substrate and therefore strain energy will accumulate as growth occurs.
