Parkinson's Drug Helps Stroke Victims
Early testing of levodopa shows promise for physical therapy
THURSDAY, Sept. 6, 2001 (HealthDayNews) -- Levodopa, a drug used to treat Parkinson's disease, appears to improve the results of physical therapy for stroke patients, German neurologists report.
Results of a small study of just 53 patients are encouraging enough that a multicenter European trial is being planned, says Dr. Friedemann Muller, a neurologist at Bad Aibling Neurological Hospital and lead author of a paper reporting the results in the Sept. 8 issue of The Lancet.
In the study, stroke patients who received daily doses of levodopa -- also known as L-dopa -- during the first three weeks of physical therapy had significantly better scores on a standard test of physical function than those who got a placebo, an inactive ingredient.
"We were surprised that the results were statistically significant for a small number of patients," Muller says. "There have been anecdotal reports that levodopa can improve motor learning after a stroke, but no study up to now has shown it in a scientific fashion."
The L-dopa effect appears to be different in stroke patients than in those with Parkinson's disease, Muller says. In the body, the drug is metabolized first to dopamine and then to norepinephrine, molecules involved in nerve activity. Parkinson's patients benefit from dopamine, while stroke patients probably benefit from the stimulating effect of norepinephrine, Muller says.
The planned trial will test different dosing schedules of levodopa, he says. Even before that testing begins, "some of my colleagues are already using it on a daily basis" because they believe levodopa is a very safe drug, he says.
Dr. Edgar J. Kenton, chairman of the American Stroke Association's advisory committee and professor of clinical neurology at Thomas Jefferson University in Philadelphia, says the beneficial effects of levodopa can be explained by its activity as a stimulant.
"We've known that physical therapy helps stroke patients," Kenton says. "If you can improve their awareness and motivation, those patients do better. Prior studies have shown that if you use stimulants, such as amphetamines, you increase the ability of patients to participate in a physical therapy program."
In the past, some neurologists have used another stimulant drug, Ritalin, as part of a stroke treatment program, Kenton says, and "it is a small move from Ritalin to levodopa."
But because the German trial was small, some questions still have to be answered, he says. For example, most of the patients in the trial had strokes that affected the right side of the brain, which tend to be less severe. A larger study is needed to determine whether left-brain stroke patients will have the same benefits, and exactly what those benefits are, Kenton says.
Still, the levodopa study has implications beyond the treatment of stroke, Muller says.
"There is no reason to believe it will not help other neurological patients," he says. "It might also help brain-damaged trauma patients."
What To Do
A cautious attitude about a small study of a new therapy is advisable until larger trials give a better picture of benefits and possible risks.
Information about brain attacks and recovering from them is available from the American Stroke Association and the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke.

Can Cats Eat Garlic?
Is it really that bad? 🧄
Thinking about giving your cat some garlic naan or a bite of your everything bagel?
Well, you should put that snack down, because garlic is actually very toxic for cats.
“Even offering table scraps that contain garlic or any onion-family ingredient is dangerous for your cat,” Dr. Laci Schaible, a veterinarian and consultant for veterinary software company IVEE, told The Dodo.
To find out why garlic is one of the worst things you can feed your cat, The Dodo spoke with Dr. Schaible and Dr. Hanie Elfenbein, a veterinarian and part-time surgeon for the Humane Educational Society in Tennessee.
Why is garlic so toxic for cats?
Onions are bad for cats, but garlic is about five times as toxic for them.
Garlic contains a high concentration of a compound called thiosulphate, which is extremely dangerous for cats (and dogs). Not only will this cause gastrointestinal (GI) upset in your cat, it can break down her red blood cells.
“While GI upset is an inconvenient risk of feeding foods containing garlic, the real risk is destruction of the red blood cells, resulting in anemia,” Dr. Schaible said.
Anemia is when the body doesn’t have enough red blood cells to carry oxygen to its tissues, which can make your cat very sick.
Also, when too many blood cells are damaged, the kidneys can become injured, “worsening the cat’s illness and potentially leading to long-term health consequences,” Dr. Elfenbein told The Dodo.
Both garlic and onions contain thiosulphate. So does every vegetable from the allium family, which includes shallots, scallions, leeks and chives — so steer clear of those as well.
Can cats eat garlic powder?
Garlic is so toxic for cats that even garlic powder can have an effect.
Even if your cat only has a little garlic powder, letting her eat it every day can be harmful over time.
And this goes for dried garlic and garlic salts as well. Do your cat a favor and keep her away from them!
How much garlic is too much garlic?
“Full-sized adult cats can experience severe toxic effects from one clove of garlic,” Dr. Schaible said. “Kittens and smaller cats, along with those with health conditions, are at risk from far smaller amounts.”
Every cat will react differently — so it’s best to avoid garlic completely.
Signs of garlic poisoning in cats
If you suspect your cat has eaten garlic and has the following symptoms, call your veterinarian or your nearest emergency vet clinic immediately:
- Oral irritation
- Loss of appetite
- Elevated heart and respiratory rates
- Pale gums
Keep in mind that the worst stage of anemia occurs several days after eating garlic, so you might not notice some of these symptoms (notably, paleness, lethargy and weakness) until a bit later.
Treatment of garlic poisoning in cats
If your cat has eaten garlic recently, your veterinarian might try to induce vomiting. It might be tempting to try this yourself, but let the professionals handle it unless they instruct otherwise.
If the garlic has already been digested, your cat will likely be given intravenous (IV) fluid therapy to flush the body of the toxin. She might also receive medication to alleviate GI upset.
For severe cases of anemia, your cat might require a blood transfusion.
Treatment of garlic poisoning in cats can be very expensive and take several days, which is why it’s so important to keep garlic away from your cat at all costs!
Be careful when sharing food
“Most cats don’t enjoy the taste of raw garlic,” Dr. Schaible said.
While you shouldn’t expect your cat to beg for a clove of garlic, it’s obviously a super common ingredient in many dishes — so think twice before giving your cat table scraps.
Giving your cat just a little of your garlic-seasoned scraps can cause thiosulphate to build up over time, and eventually cause your cat to become sick.
If you think your cat has eaten garlic, call the Pet Poison Hotline at (855) 289-0358 or bring your cat to a veterinarian right away!

If Justin Bieber could go back in time, he said he would do certain things differently.
The 26-year-old singer of “Yummy” spoke about his troubled past on his Facebook Watch series “The Biebers on Watch” with his wife Hailey Baldwin, specifically when the subject of sex appeared.
“If I could go back and not have to face some of the hurt I suffered, I would probably have run away for the wedding,” said the pop star with Baldwin at his side.
JUSTIN BIEBER TALKS ABOUT PAST DRUG USE: “IT MAY BE AN ADDICTION”
He added that, as “crazy” as it sounds, he thinks that sex can make premarital relationships difficult.
“Sex can be a little confusing when you are just sexually active with anyone. We went. It’s just true, “he said.
“I would probably have saved myself for the wedding,” added Bieber.
Baldwin, 23, said she didn’t know if she would have been single before saying “yes”, but understood where her husband, the hit man, came from.
JUSTIN BIEBER, HAILEY BALDWIN DISCUSS WITH THEIR CANDIDATE THEIR SPLIT, MARRIAGE: ‘FORGIVENESS IS THE BIGGEST THING’
“I agree that being physical with someone can make things more confusing,” she said.
Bieber and Baldwin had brief relationships before they married in September 2019. In between, Bieber has notoriously known Selena Gomez, in addition to having a number of other short-lived adventures with other women.
On Friday, Bieber’s sexual comments came on Baldwin’s heels discussing the couple’s ups and downs.
JUSTIN BIEBER, HAILEY BALDWIN CANDIDATELY DISCUSSES DEPRESSION: “PEOPLE LOOK AT IT AS A WEAKNESS”
“I think I always knew that if we ever fixed things and got back together, it was going to be a very serious situation and we were going to get married or [it] was going to lead to that, “the model revealed in an interview with Hillsong Channel on Friday.
“I didn’t necessarily know what the schedule was going to be. I just trusted and I think [it] was a huge leap of faith… and I just trusted the people I knew [who] had watched me go through the whole trip with him, without him, and then come back with him, “she continued.
Bieber, who had previously talked about celibacy before reigniting his romance with Baldwin, finally proved to the young model that he had, in fact, changed.

“We got back together and I saw how he had changed and how different he was in terms of behavior, the way he behaved, the way he explained to me what he had made of his life and where he was, was different from what it had ever been, “she said.
The couple got engaged in 2018 and made the connection in September 2019 in South Carolina in front of friends and family. But before that, they legally said “I do” in New York in the fall of 2018.

Office for Sustainability Measures Value of Campus Urban Forest
Student interns for the U of A office for sustainability, in collaboration with the Center for Advanced Spatial Technology, are evaluating the ecosystem services provided by the urban forest of the Fayetteville campus.
Ecosystem services are the benefits that humans receive from Earth's ecosystems; they are the foundation of all human civilizations and economies. There are a number of critical ecosystem services provided by urban forests: atmospheric carbon sequestration, air pollution mitigation, direct cooling of structures and surfaces through shading, interception of rainwater runoff, increased infiltration of surface water to groundwater, habitat for wildlife (especially endangered songbirds), and critical social and spiritual value to people.
Urban forests differ from rural and wild forests in a number of ways.
For example, urban forest canopies are typically much less dense, resulting in faster growth rates for urban trees. Root zones of urban trees are often constrained by compaction zones and structures, limiting their root development. Urban forests are managed systems; they are created and maintained by people to achieve certain purposes.
In spite of these challenges, tree species commonly found in an urban forest can live for centuries. Residents develop strong affinity for these trees; they connect people to their past and their future. It is this deep connection that can make them difficult to manage.
Urban forests have not always been planned properly. Planting the wrong species too close to a building, under power lines or over water lines can result in the need to redesign those canopies. In addition, priorities for ecosystem services change over time. Understanding these driving forces is critical for managing the urban forest ecosystem for maximum human and ecological benefit.
Benchmarking of ecosystem services provided by these trees allows better management of urban forests to increase those services. Student interns in the office for sustainability are working with U of A facilities management department and the Center for Advanced Spatial Technology to inventory the ecosystem services provided by the campus urban forests, identify spatial density of those services, and develop a strategy for optimizing them.
The office for sustainability is focusing on carbon sequestration, urban heat island impact reduction, and water cycling. Carbon sequestration analysis will be included in the U of A Annual Climate Change report. The Natural Systems Working Group, part of Provost Sharon Gaber's Sustainability Council, will provide technical support and guidance for the project.
Susan Schneider and Erin Parker, experts from the School of Law, will attend the 2022 White House Conference on Hunger, Nutrition and Health in Washington, D.C.

Introduction: Soldering Connectors on Arduino Pro-Mini
I just received an order of Arduino Pro-Minis, and I needed to solder header connectors on them. Since I use the I2C function in virtually all my projects, I couldn't ignore the fact that the A4 and A5 connectors are offset. The pins on this particular board are off-grid, they don't line up with the pins for the rest of the GPIO. So I found a sequence of soldering to get around it.
Step 1: Step 1: My Rig.
As you can see in the photos, I have clamped a piece of perfboard into my vice. I will eventually build a box to mount it on, since this is a great soldering jig. I clamped the perfboard in such a way that the vice jaw is above the surface equal to the thickness of the header connectors' plastic retainer.
I cut off a two-pin piece of header and placed it in the perfboard a distance from the jaw so that the Arduino board can rest on the jaw and be parallel to the perfboard when the pins are in the proper holes. Then I soldered the pins.
Step 2: Step 2: Adding FTDI and Remaining Askew Analog Connections.
Because my FTDI has a male connector already soldered on, I opted to use a female header on the Arduino. I ordered a bunch of 50 pin female connectors, and I just cut with snips the amount of pins I want. Then I file the rough edges with a metal file. The remaining analog pins take a three-pin male connector. so I inserted the three-pin connector into a scrap piece of female header, and put a scrap male into my six-pin female FTDI connector. Then I placed them in the perfboard at the proper locations and placed the arduino face-down over the top. There is a slight offset, but it's not hard to get the connectors in place.
Step 3: Step 3: Finally Adding the GPIO/Power Connectors.
These a simple, just drop the connectors into the perfboard. The kits I ordered came with these connectors and the right-angle FTDI connectors I opted not to use. When soldering these, I recommend soldering just one pin and then checking that the connectors stayed perpendicular. I suppose this tip is good for all steps, but these little boogers seem more inclined to roll. With one pin soldered, you adjust until you're satisfied. Then it's simple to solder the rest.
Step 4: Conclusion:
Now you can connect the FTDI and load your test sketch, verify your work, and your Arduino is ready to go into your next project.

By Naureen Shah, Amnesty International USA Director of Security with Human Rights
Today John Brennan, director of the CIA, gave a live press conference responding to the Senate’s landmark report on the CIA torture and secret detention program. He acknowledged “mistakes.” He said that the program was “flawed.” He said that the CIA had now improved “management” and “planning.”
But words like these do not reflect the full gravity of torture and enforced disappearances. They downgrade this program of systematic human rights violations to a series of unforeseen complications. They make torture seem like a bad choice – instead of the crime that it is.
Here’s what Brennan should have said, without qualification:
Torture and other cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment can never be justified. They are never legal. Even in a time of war or threat of war, even in a in a state of emergency that threatens the life of the nation, there can be no exemption. The same is true of enforced disappearances.
When the prohibition on torture and other cruel, inhuman and degrading treatment and enforced disappearances is violated, the United States has obligations. It has to be fully investigated — impartially and independently. Anyone found responsible must be brought to justice.
No one can render these crimes lawful – no lawyer, no president, no doctor and no interrogator.
The release of the summary of the Senate torture report is a wake up call. It’s time to end impunity for human rights violations. It’s time for accountability.

Nepal has a vibrant music scene and Gharana hopes to bring Western classical into the mix
A four-day international music festival in Kathmandu next week aims to promote western classical music appreciation and education in Nepal and will feature performances from world-renowned musicians.
The festival is organised by the non-profit Gharana Music Foundation which was established earlier this year by Dan Linden, an American classical guitarist and music teacher based in Kathmandu.
Nepal has a vibrant music scene that has strong Indian classical elements and traditional Nepali folk, and Kathmandu has become hub for jazz and blues festivals. Gharana hopes to bring classical Western music into the mix.
“Our main aim is not to entertain but to educate,” Linden said. What helps make the Gharana festival so unique is that in addition to world class performances there will be free music workshops open to the Nepali public. The performers themselves will lead the workshops which will be attended by the music and art community of Kathmandu.
“It is the first time an international classical festival is being presented in such a concentrated way with this level of artistry and with unique educational opportunities for students interested in the genre,” Linden explained.
Some of the festival’s key acts include a solo performance by well-known New York-based cellist, Laura Metcalf, as well as performances from acclaimed guitarists Rupert Boyd, Ana Maria Rosado and Paul Cesarczyk. It will also feature local artists like tabala player Rabin Lal Shrestha and didgeridoo player Salil Subedi.
While the workshops are open to the general public, spaces are limited. Linden hopes to make this an annual music event in Nepal. As he said: “We want to see Kathmandu become a music destination and a city where the arts can flourish”.

A man has been arrested after flashing money on camera for Facebook Live. According to reports, the man was showing off a handful of money when officers interrupted with a loudspeaker, raiding his home. Several people were said to have sent the live video to a local news station in Jacksonville, Florida. The man was arrested for drug possession and other charges.
The arrest report states that the man was arrested after police found a handgun, ammunition, drug paraphernalia, oxycodone pills and crack cocaine in the home. On the video, the man can be seen with the cash, and then he looks out a window when he hears the police. He ran out of the room and off camera at that point. No drugs were seen in the video.
Neighbors claim that the police threw smoke grenades into the house, which sounded like bombs going off. Loud noises can be heard on the video. Police officers can be seen going into the camera's view and back out of it, but no evidence of the accused crimes are seen on the video. The man faces several charges, including possession of a weapon by a convicted felon, possession of cocaine, possession of paraphernalia for the delivery or manufacture of drugs, and others.
For those who have been arrested for drug possession in Florida, the constitution says that they are not guilty unless they are proved so. In such cases, a criminal lawyer can help the client determine what the best course of action would be for his or her case. The criminal law attorney has the knowledge and experience to create the best defense possible for each person's individual case.

Innerspring mattresses are the most widely available style of mattress on the market. These types of mattress rely on interlocking steel springs to support your body. This tends to create a firmer and more supportive mattress than pure-foam mattresses.
Gel Memory Foam Mattresses
Gel memory foam mattresses are an increasingly popular choice. At Verlo, our foam mattresses are made using high density foam, which is more supportive and long-lasting compared to traditional memory foam. Our gel memory foam mattresses also include features to minimize overheating, which is a common complaint with traditional memory foam. .
Latex mattresses are popular with sleepers who prefer natural materials. Latex is eco-friendly, sustainable, and hypoallergenic, making it the ideal material for an eco-friendly mattress. Verlo offers 100% latex mattresses via our vLatex Collection, which is made out of natural latex from the Hevea Brasiliensis rubber tree.
Wrapped Coil Mattresses
Wrapped coil mattresses are a special type of innerspring mattress that offers exceptional support and motion separation. In a traditional innerspring mattress, the coils are connected, which means that when one coil moves, others move with it. But in a wrapped coil mattress, each spring is wrapped in its own individual pocket. So when one spring moves, the others are unaffected.
Choosing the Right Type of Mattress
Choosing the right type of mattress can be difficult, especially given the unique sleeping habits and comfort preferences of different sleepers.
That’s why we recommend experiencing our mattresses at your local Verlo showroom. Rather than trying to guess which style of mattress works best for you, a visit to your local showroom will allow you to try different mattresses in person.
A Verlo Comfort Coach will work with you to narrow down which mattress styles are the best fit for your needs. With your Comfort Coach’s guidance, you’ll then have the chance to try as many different types of mattresses as you like until you find the mattress of your dreams.

Good Morning Crafters, I hope that everyone had a good sleep last night….our house is still quite warm, but luckily hubby had the good sense to put in our air conditioner. I really hope the crazy weather we had yesterday will take the humidity out of the air. Last night before bed, I made another card. I am determined to use my scraps before I move on to using some of my new yummy paper that I have been buying (and to be honest, hoarding) from Kim at The Cutting Garden. Here is a picture of the card I made:
I created this 5 x 5 card, like I said with scrap patterned paper and scrap card stock. I stamped the frame and heat embossed it with some plum colored embossing powder. I stamped the two sentiments with Brilliance Black ink. I fussy cut out the frame and banner instead of using the co-ordinating Spellbinders. The stamp set is call Botanical Medallions & Banners from JustRite Clear stamps. I used my Doily Punch Around the Page set and my Stampin Up Photo corner punch to add some interest to the card. I finished off the card with some purple bling, bow, a butterfly, and a purple paper flower. I picked up the punch set, stamp set, ink, ribbon and flower all from Kim at The Garden.
Have a great day! Thanks for peeking!

Dezoffril: Everyone inspires me! Street style is probably my biggest inspiration overall. So many people have different perspectives, it’s amazing the creativity there is out there and I absolutely love it! It inspires me to be creative and see what I can do with pieces most people wouldn’t wear because isn’t the “norm”. Style is art and art is who you are. There is no wrong or right, only confidence. Anyone can have a style of anything but confidence is what really makes it a STYLE. I am just an up and coming fashion blogger wanting to share what I come up with to inspire others. When I’m not blogging, I LOVE being with my dogs and catching up on my favorite shows.
eyespyfashiondotcom: What are 3 things a girl must have in her closet? Who inspires you? Who is @chanelfiles?
Chanelfiles: Thanks for the questions! 3 things every girl should have in her wardrobe is a great pair of nude or black pumps (I prefer a pointy toe).

I’m really quirky and will probably shock most people once they get to know me. I have a wicked sense of humor!
Weekday, weekend, and or holiday every girl should get up, get dressed, and feel pretty. As mentioned by Fashionnextdoor you can not go wrong with a statement necklace no matter the occasion. Many of us may share the same similarities in our closet but it’s still all different when everything is said and done as one eye may be different then the next. Style is what you make it in feeling comfortable in your own skin. It’s the confidence that makes that outfit that much better! It’s not what you wear but how you wear it or better yet you wear the clothes, don’t allow the clothes to wear you!
These women are phenomenal and as you can see they all share the same similarities with understanding the concept of accessorizing, having confidence, and most importantly being true to themselves… The art of fashion!

J&K HC asks state to discontinue use of pellet guns for crowd control
The Jammu and Kashmir high court on Saturday said the state government should discontinue the use of pellet guns for crowd control during law and order situation in view of the statement made by Union home minister Rajnath Singh in Parliament.india Updated: Jul 23, 2016 20:55 IST
The Jammu and Kashmir high court on Saturday said the state government should discontinue the use of pellet guns for crowd control during law and order situation in view of the statement made by Union home minister Rajnath Singh in Parliament.
“The home minister has said in the Lok Sabha that an expert committee will be framed to find substitutes to pellet guns.
“This statement should be sufficient for the government to discontinue the use of pellet guns,” a division bench of the court said here while hearing a PIL.
The bench comprising Chief Justice N Paul Vasanthakumar and Justice Muzaffar Hussain Attar said Singh’s statement also meant that the pellet guns were “not non-lethal”.
The court also directed the government to provide necessary treatment to all those injured in the ongoing unrest and shift those who need specialised medical attention out of the state.
Observing that “when a person loses his eyesight, he loses everything, he loses universe”, the division bench said. “No sensitive soul can bear looking at these pictures (in a newspaper of a minor boy injured in security forces action). He is a five-year-old child. You cannot accuse him of throwing stones”.
The court also asked the government not to interfere in the working of voluntary organisations that were helping people, citing that “these are highly abnormal times for the people of Jammu and Kashmir”.
“You must encourage them. Please also do not interfere with the working of NGOs who are distributing medicine to the people,” the court said, asking the government to ensure opening of medical shops even in night hours.
The court also asked the government to provide relaxation in the curfew at least in certain peaceful areas. “It has been 14-15 days. For how many days can you shut the doors? There must be some relaxation, at least in some peaceful areas.
“The other day, they announced relaxation but some unwise people advised you otherwise. They are making their own people suffer. Have some wise people who can advise the government,” it said.
The division bench said the government must also ensure everybody gets ration and other essential items. “People should not suffer,” the bench said.
The court also asked the Jammu and Kashmir Bank to keep open its ATMs and branches so that people can avail the facilities.
“You have your (security) protection and you can also approach police (for protection) if there is need,” it said.
In a written order referring to a news report about a five-year-old boy from south Kashmir’s Kokernag, who is battling for life at SMHS hospital after sustaining pellet injuries in his eyes, the court said “such incidents shall have to be taken note of by the state for not only giving appropriate treatment but also to give compensation to the affected persons/families”.
The court directed the director health services Kashmir and Principal Government Medical College Srinagar to ensure that the patients admitted for retina surgery and other eye treatment “are treated without loss of time”. It sought a status report in this regard by July 26.
The division bench directed the law enforcement agencies not to close any medical shop during the times when there are restrictions and, wherever necessary, protection be provided for selling of medicines as the state cannot allow people to suffer for want of medicines.
The court said it is also reported that about 140 patients need retina surgeries within the next three weeks, but the hospitals can conduct only three-four surgeries a day.
“However, the patients need to be operated upon within three weeks after getting the primary treatment of the injury and if there is delay the patients eye globe will shrink and will become visually disabled for life,” the court said.
It said if the details in the news reports were found to be true, immediate steps have to be taken to treat patients, including conducting of retina surgeries.
“Want of space or operation table or surgical items or surgeons cannot be an answer to deny timely treatment to the patients who are to be treated for getting vision in their eyes.
“Hence we direct the Director Health Services Kashmir as well as the Principal Government Medical College Srinagar to go through the said news item and take a decision forthwith so as to enable the persons admitted for eye treatment are treated without loss of time,” the court said.

LAS VEGAS — Kristina Alvarez, a 36-calendar year-aged professional medical aide in Las Vegas, understands how badly the Democrats want her focus and ideally her vote. So does JA Moore, 34, a point out agent in Charleston, S.C., whose endorsement was very sought following.
The people becoming wooed most aggressively by Democratic candidates at the second — Latino voters in Nevada and black voters in South Carolina — are essential to victory in both states, the place white voters make up considerably less than 50 percent of the Democratic citizens. The courtship involves mariachi bands and gospel choirs at marketing campaign occasions, and an substantial debate phase dialogue about the relevance of “black and brown” voters.
It is a just one-measurement-fits-all strategy in quite a few mays, and it’s not constantly resonating with the voters the all-white top rated tier of 2020 candidates are hoping to achieve.
“We want to listen to a lot more than just some token words and phrases,” Ms. Alvarez, who is undecided about which prospect she’ll aid on Saturday, claimed past week. She cares most about higher education prices and the worrying rise in hate crimes close to the state, but observed the Democratic candidates to be additional centered on responding to President Trump than something else. “He’s created it so that if we hear anything aside from racism, we want to say hallelujah,” she reported. “There’s a little something else, but what’s the some thing else?”
Mr. Moore was even additional direct in his evaluation of the initiatives some candidates had been creating.
“It’s degrading,” he stated, for the duration of an party, showcasing a gospel choir, for previous Vice President Joseph R. Biden Jr. past 7 days in South Carolina. “Black persons listen to additional than gospel songs.”
Interviews with dozens of black and Latino Democrats in both states in recent days clearly show that a lot of come to feel ambivalence or disappointment in the bash that is relying on them and anger around the process that narrowed the most assorted slate of candidates in heritage to the present-day contenders.
In South Carolina, the word “rigged” came up many periods as black voters contemplated the remaining options, expressing sadness that black candidates had been pressured out by money woes and very poor poll success ahead of South Carolinians had a possibility to cast their votes.
In Nevada, Latino voters explained they have been resigned to typically superficial speak around race for the foreseeable long run, and expressed resentment that candidates were being somewhat gradual to concentrate on crafting an attractiveness to them.
For a lot of men and women, the irritation was not around the reality that they would not have the likelihood to vote for a person who shared their history or who appeared like them. Fairly, they chafed at the narrowness of the message when candidates deal with black and Latino voters.
Tierra King, a political science big at the University of South Carolina, was by no means that enamored with the black candidates.
“There’s a declaring that everybody’s who’s skinfolk ain’t kinfolk,” Ms. King, 20, explained as she walked on campus previous 7 days. “I didn’t experience that the candidates had been speaking to me.”
Mr. Moore, the South Carolina agent, had viewed as Mr. Biden, who has been hunting to the state’s black voters to resurrect his floundering campaign.
But he eventually took difficulty with Mr. Biden’s history, and his suggestion that his inadequate demonstrating in Iowa and New Hampshire was due to the fact those people states lacked variety. Now Mr. Moore is backing former Mayor Pete Buttigieg and argues that people of all those two mostly white states really have a large amount in frequent with men and women in South Carolina.
“African-People in america are Americans,” Mr. Moore mentioned. “I have a young daughter, so I’m anxious about her general public education. I’m anxious about well being treatment. I’m involved about clear drinking water to drink.”
Zayda Russiello, a 72-yr-outdated retired educator in North Las Vegas, felt likewise about what she’d listened to at a applicant forum.
“They are addressing challenges with mass incarceration, but they’ve bought so a lot of other points they are concentrated on,” she reported. “I want to hear additional about schooling, about action.”
In Nevada, black and Latino voters continuously outlined the similarity of a large amount of the pitches they were being listening to from Democrats: boasting about the variety amid marketing campaign staff, talking about their family’s migration from European, reminding immigrants that they, as well, are welcome in the region. Previously mentioned all, criticizing President Trump, calling him a racist and decrying the way he has divided the state all over racial and ethnic traces.
For some voters, reacting to President Trump is specifically the trouble. They say the president has produced it so that Democrats commit their speaking time and mental power to decrying him, alternatively than articulating their have plan positions.
Isaac Barron, a significant college trainer and metropolis councilman in North Las Vegas, a suburb with a big Latino inhabitants, has watched approximately every prospect come as a result of his neighborhood in the final numerous months. They test, he explained, to appeal to communities like his very own, but there is always something missing, absent a combine of urgency and enthusiasm when it arrives to conversing about the challenges they are going through.
“It just goes to show you that it may well be 2020, but things haven’t transformed,” Mr. Barron said, including that in numerous ways he feels the dialogue about racial injustices has misplaced a sharp target in latest decades. “There’s a real deficiency of knowing. Poverty is a huge problem, but we’re not chatting about it. We treatment about immigration, sure — I’ve shed observe of the range of pupils who come to me with tears in their eyes mainly because their father bought arrested by ICE. But we continue to have trouble finding outside of the basics.”
Steven Olmos, a 34-calendar year-aged operations supervisor, initially supported Senator Kamala Harris, but anxious that as a black lady she would confront also numerous insurmountable worries, like being observed as far too forceful.
“Right now, they are remaining mindful not to offend any individual, not to get on matters that are too warm and will alienate people,” he mentioned, as he stood outside the house a rally for Pete Buttigieg in North Las Vegas on Sunday, keeping a “Juntos con Pete” indicator.
Mr. Olmos was not impressed with this week’s debate, either. “They converse about having guidance from sure demographics, or achieving out to all those teams, but I really do not believe that any of them spoke about how their guidelines correlate to individuals groups.”
Julián Castro, the former federal housing secretary, experienced hoped to be in Nevada this 7 days as a applicant but is as a substitute here as a surrogate for Senator Elizabeth Warren. He dropped out of the 2020 race at the beginning of the 12 months and has spoken critically about the way black and Latino voters are in essence boxed out of the earliest and most decisive contests since Iowa and New Hampshire set the terms for the total race in terms of polling, focus and resources.
“This is genuinely a voting legal rights situation — who gets to vote for their first preference applicant?” he stated. “There are men and women who dropped out of the race that if other states have been to go 1st, might effectively have had a stronger footing.”
The issue of who will make the ballot also speaks to voter engagement, and who feels represented in the political approach.
Darius Davis, a 20-yr-previous new music major from Beech Island, S.C., experienced hardly ever been fascinated in politics right up until Senator Cory Booker arrived to his campus right here, Allen University.
Mr. Booker’s speech final 12 months at the traditionally black school still left Mr. Davis with a prospect crush for the very first time.
“I would have voted for Cory Booker hands down,” reported Mr. Davis, 20, who had been swayed by Mr. Booker’s upbeat message of unity as nicely as his oratorical expertise. “That manufactured me want to learn much more about politics.”
“I was really let down,” Mr. Davis reported of Mr. Booker’s withdrawal. “Not rather. I was quite let down.”
Terrence Culbreath, the mayor of Johnston, S.C., was also a Booker supporter.
Very last 7 days, however, he identified himself packing up the detritus of a unsuccessful political campaign — gas canisters utilised for a barbecue, lapel buttons, posters, and a pile of vivid blue “Deval for South Carolina” T-shirts.
Deval Patrick had been the very last black prospect standing in the 2020 race, and it was time to shut down his business office in Columbia.
Prior to signing up for Mr. Patrick’s campaign, Mr. Culbreath, who at 35 is 1 of the state’s youngest black mayors, had been the South Carolina political director for Mr. Booker, whose workplace 4 blocks absent had been shut down in January.
He only worked for Mr. Patrick for 10 times, brought into the campaign in what he described as a “Hail Mary.” Mr. Culbreath said he was now uncertain about the remaining candidates, but optimistic about the long term for black candidates, frequently.
“It’s a prequel for what the future appears like,” he said. “You’re likely to see extra black candidates, and not just for president.”
“What size do you wear?” requested one more campaign worker, providing a cost-free Deval Patrick T-shirt.

The impact of restructuring on the delivery of health care services
Johnson, Boitshoko Filistas
MetadataShow full item record
The purpose of the study was to determine the impact of restructuring on the delivery of health care services in the Mafikeng area. In some rural areas health care facilities are not accessible to the local communities as consumers are in most cases unable to reach the centres because of lack of transport, funds among others. Most of our communities are disadvantaged especially in case where mobile clinics cannot reach them. The study revealed that restructuring had a negative impact on the delivery of health care services. People who felt the major impact are the disadvantaged, who are from rural communities and should have benefited from restructuring. The study has recommended that nurse patient ratio and doctor patient ratio be improved to reduce the adverse effects of restructuring. Policies need to be revised to come up with better strategies and to reskill health care workers.

Jobs Named "Interim CEO" -- After serving as a "special advisor" to Apple's board of directors and executive management team for several months, Steve Jobs has been officially named interim CEO until Apple's board can tap a new CEO, likely before year's end. The new title changes little, but is interesting because Jobs may now be forced to take responsibility for his actions along with any credit that would be due. Previously, it would have been easy for Jobs to take credit for successes at Apple while ducking responsibility for problems his actions caused. Jobs's motivations remain a mystery - he has refused the post of CEO and even now only stands to be interim CEO for several months, but his recent actions are those of someone trying to remake a company in his own image.

Mitsubishi Motors became the first major automaker to mass-produce pure electric cars with the egg-shaped i-MiEV and leads the segment so far with 10,000 vehicles sold globally since mid-2009. It has exported another 4,000 electric cars for sale under PSA Peugeot Citroen’s brands.
Japanese rival Nissan Motor Co., which wants to dominate the electric vehicle (EV) market with its French partner Renault SA , has sold 8,500 Leaf electric cars globally since its launch in December 2010.
In the i-MiEV’s first remodelling, Mitsubishi Motors will offer an entry-level "M" version, with a sticker price of 2.60 million yen ($32,000), down from 3.98 million yen, and a shorter range of 120 km (75 miles), compared with 160 km (100 miles) for the previous model.
After Japanese government subsidies, the M will cost the buyer 1.88 million yen, Mitsubishi Motors said.
"Costs have really come down dramatically," President Osamu Masuko told a news conference, adding that batteries the main reason for the relatively high price of EVs had more than halved in price in the last two years.
"We will try to keep the price down even when the subsidies go away," he said.
The higher-grade "G" version carries a suggested retail price of 3.80 million yen and can go 180 km (110 miles) on a full charge measured under a stricter Japanese fuel economy reading.
Mitsubishi Motors plans to sell 6,000 i-MiEVs in Japan in the business year to next March 31 and 25,000 EVs globally, including those produced for Peugeot-Citroen.
The earthquake and tsunami that devastated northeast Japan on March 11 have ignited debate over whether the spread of electric cars would stall in a country facing a nuclear crisis, tight electricity supply and the possibility of higher electricity prices.
Masuko said he did not perceive any headwind for EVs, but rather a heightened need to develop renewable energy and multiple power sources. Electric cars, he said, could also be a useful source of power in an emergency by discharging electricity from their batteries.
"At first we wondered whether EVs could be useful in the disaster zones, and it turned out that they were because gasoline was scarce at the beginning," Masuko said. The Mitsubishi group has loaned 89 electric cars i-MiEVs free to the region’s governments and others helping with relief efforts.
"Once enough gasoline became available we asked whether we could have them back, but we were told they were still useful so not one has been returned yet," he said.
Mitsubishi Motors said it hopes to develop and market within this business year a portable converter with enough output capacity to allow its electric cars to power household electronics such as rice cookers and washing machines.
A converter for laptop computers and other products that use less electricity is already available as an option.
On a larger scale, Japanese automakers including Mitsubishi Motors, Nissan and Toyota Motor Corp are looking to add a function that would enable EVs to discharge electricity directly to homes.
The i-MiEV would be able to power an average household for at least a day.
With the proper control functions, that would allow households equipped with solar panels to charge their EVs during the day with clean energy, then use the power stored in the car’s batteries to supply the household at peak hours.
Mitsubishi Motors will buy the smaller-capacity lithium-ion batteries for the i-MiEV’s "M" grade from Toshiba Corp and continue using batteries made by its joint venture with Mitsubishi Corp and GS Yuasa Corp for the "G".

Read this tip to make your life smarter, better, faster and wiser. LifeTips is the place to go when you need to know about Buying a Used Car from an Owner and other Used Car topics.
There is no substitute for research when buying a used car from an owner. Following are tips on three things you must do.
Narrow Your Choices and Research them Exhaustively
After you've done your research and narrowed the field of possible purchases, call the sellers and ask for the VIN or Vehicle Identification Number. You can use the VIN number to learn a lot about the car before you decide on a test drive. You will probably save yourself a lot of trouble by weeding out cars that are unsuitable based on their history.
Dig a Little Deeper
Get the Technical Service Bulletin (TSB) for the cars you are considering. If you can't get the TSB, try to find out about any recalls or mechanical problems by calling the dealership local to the place where the car was first registered.
Verify Recent Service or Maintenance
Ask the private seller about any recent work or repairs on the car. You may even want to follow up with the mechanic that completed the work. Even if you choose an independent mechanic you should ask about:

NEW YORK — Joe Kudla has wanted to open a store in New York City for years — and that dream has finally become a reality.
The founder and chief executive officer of Vuori, a Southern California-based active and lifestyle brand, has opened its largest retail store at 106 Spring Street — a 5,000-square-foot East Coast flagship on the corner of Mercer Street.
This is the brand’s 25th store and one of several it will open before the end of the year. A unit on Rush Street in Chicago, Illinois, is next, followed by NorthPark in Dallas, Texas; Las Vegas, Nevada, and Scottsdale, Arizona. The plan, Kudla said, is to open another 70 stores over the next five years, to bring the brand’s total to around 100.
The retail rollout is just the latest illustration of Vuori’s skyrocketing growth. Kudla, an active yogi and surfer, created the brand in 2015 to fill a void he saw in the men’s activewear market for workout shorts that could take a guy from the gym to lunch. He raised $300,000 from friends and family and created moisture-wicking, quick-drying shorts with a distinctly coastal California aesthetic. Since then, the brand has expanded into a large assortment of other categories, including womenswear, and thanks to some deep-pocketed investors — notably SoftBank Vision 2 and Norwest Venture Partners — it now has a valuation of $4 billion.
“It’s never been the financial outcome that motivates this company,” Kudla said as he visited the SoHo store for the first time this week. “We want to inspire a happy, healthy outlook on life and bring that message to new markets.”
Surveying the store that had a soft opening over the weekend, Kudla said: “We very much believe in brick-and-mortar. In the first three days this store has been open, we’ve seen an incredible response. The community is excited that we’re here. All our stores are embedded in the communities in which they operate. And we believe there’s no better way to build a brand.”
That strategy that the company honed in other locations where it holds events, such as local art shows and yoga classes, will also be executed in New York. To introduce the store to the city, Vuori hosted SoulCycle takeovers this week and there will be similar activations in the future. During the pandemic, the brand created the ACTV Club, a program of free workouts on its Instagram page, to motivate customers to keep moving. Now, those workouts are being brought to life in stores on the West Coast and may soon be added to the New York flagship as well.
But for now, the focus is on establishing the store itself.
The SoHo unit, which is located in the neighborhood’s historic cast iron district, retained some of the original architecture, such as floor-to-ceiling columns, but it also strives to bring a taste of its hometown of Encinitas, California, to New York City with custom-designed fixtures handcrafted from natural materials, a skylight ceiling installation that brings a sense of brightness to the space, a striking 40-foot hallway of lit arches leading to the fitting room area, and a Rise and Shine Sun behind the cash registers.
The store also features a custom art installation of back-lit mountains — Vuori is a Finnish word that means mountain — museum tables to display brand books and marketing materials, and walls with sayings such as: “We draw inspiration from an active coastal California lifestyle,” and “Run. Surf. Hike. Train. Chill.”
“Our goal is to bring the natural environment of Southern California to New York,” Kudla said. “We’d been looking at New York for more than two years — pre-pandemic — but we wanted to wait until the brand had the right level of awareness on the East Coast. Today, New York City is our number-two market online behind L.A. We have customers here, so it was just about finding the right location.”
The rent is not cheap and negotiating with the landlord took a while, but Kudla believes New York is “the pinnacle of retail in the world,” so securing such a prominent location in the popular neighborhood was key to his decision to open here. “SoHo has long been one of New York’s most desirable shopping hubs, as it’s the perfect mix of being a place where people live and work, but also where they come to shop, discover new brands and have fun. We look forward to serving new and existing customers and bringing locals together in ways that celebrate and inspire a healthy, happy life.”
The store offers the widest assortment of any unit, Kudla said, with fitness-related product on one side and lifestyle offerings on the other. There are product callouts in front of some of the bestsellers, such as the Kore short, and the men’s and women’s collections are merchandised together instead of separately. And some of the brand’s newest additions, such as outerwear and accessories, are also given priority in the store. Women’s, which the company launched in 2018, now accounts for 50 percent of sales, Kudla said.
“Our business was founded on fitness and bringing a new perspective to performance apparel,” he said. And although the Kore short with its athletic fit that falls just above the knee and includes a breathable, boxer-brief lining, remains the top seller, performance loungewear and outerwear are also doing well out of the box in New York. “And the customer is not hesitating on price,” he said. Other top sellers for the brand include the men’s commuter collection, which includes pants with a traditional silhouette created from performance fabrics that can be worn to work or to travel.
And although the store has only been open a few days — the grand opening event is Thursday night — it has already become Vuori’s number-one location, Kudla said. “We still have a lot to learn, but we’re optimistic.”
Despite the focus on physical retail, Vuori still has a robust wholesale business that accounts for around 28 percent of total sales, Kudla said. But it’s the online store that still represents the lion’s share of the business. “Our retail is still relatively small,” he said. “The majority of our sales are still done on our website.”
But that may change. In late September, Vuori opened its first store in London in Covent Gardens as a way to kickstart its business in Europe. The store is small, about 1,000 square feet, but has served as an introduction to the community and is doing well. “We’re really encouraged by the response,” he said. “It’s exceeding plan.”
In addition to the London store, Vuori in March also launched online and through wholesale channels in seven countries: the U.K., France, Germany, Ireland, Netherlands, Australia and Canada. The expansion includes local retailers, including Selfridges, Harrods, Equinox in the U.K., and Breuninger in Germany. And at the end of September, it added China, Hong Kong, Singapore, the Middle East and Mexico to its global rollout.
Kudla said going forward, the plan is to continue to expand its reach in Western Europe by adding more stores in London and elsewhere, and China is also in his sights. “We just launched on Tmall and we will open our first brick-and-mortar store there within two years,” he said.
Kudla believes the future is bright for Vuori, both in the U.S. and beyond. “In spite of the inflationary environment and the potentially looming recession, we remain cautiously optimistic.”
So with such an ambitious expansion strategy, is a public offering in the brand’s future? “It’s hard to say,” Kudla responded. “Right now, we’re now focused on creating building blocks for the future.”

After scenes from the August 2023 Maui wildfires began to circulate, people all over the world held their collective breath. Homes and businesses were destroyed, and the death toll (which still cannot be finalized for some time) currently sits at 115.
College basketball fans could only stare at a wiped out Lahaina town and wonder if the Maui Invitational would be added to the list of precious things lost to the uncontrolled blaze. For many fans, a trip to the Lahaina Civic Center was like a pilgrimage, a chance to watch their favorite college teams play in a traditional gym in the middle of paradise.
When Covid-19 struck and Hawaii had to go into lockdown, the 2020 Maui Invitational was moved to Asheville, NC. It was an admirable attempt to keep the tournament alive, but Asheville, while beautiful in its own right with its mountains and fall foliage, is not a facsimile to the tropical paradise of Maui. Recruits don’t rub their hands together dreaming of playing in the Blue Ridge Mountains.
The Lahaina Civic Center survived the wildfires, but it is currently being utilized as a hub for recovery efforts in Maui. With so much damage to the local economy around it, and without enough shelter to properly care for Maui residents, the tournament cannot be held in Maui this November.
So the announcement came with great relief that this year’s tournament was moving to Oahu:
This year’s Tournament will shift to the island of Oʻahu while its traditional home court – the Lahaina Civic Center – continues to serve as a critical hub for Maui wildfire recovery efforts.— Maui Invitational (@MauiInv) September 15, 2023

The 2023 Maui Invitational will move to the Stan Sherriff Center, home of the University of Hawaii, a mere 11 minute drive from Waikiki. But the even better (and more UNC relevant news) was that the 2024 tournament would be back in Maui.
Carolina fans that want to spend Thanksgiving in paradise will have a chance to see the Tar Heels play in the 2,400-seat Lahaina Civic Center. Having had the pleasure of attending in 2016 when UNC beat Chaminade, Oklahoma State, and Wisconsin, I can truthfully report that it was one of the coolest experiences of my life.

PUNE: It’s going to be a clash between David and Goliath when Bharat FC will host table toppers Mohun Bagan in the rescheduled Round 4 match of Hero I-League here at Balewadi Sports Complex Stadium on Tuesday.
The home team Bharat FC are currently at the bottom of the table with 12 points from 15 games after losing to Sporting Club de Goa in their previous fixture on last Saturday.
On the other hand, Bagan have 32 points from 15 games, and hold an advantage of single point with Tuesday’s game in hand over the second-placed defending champions Bengaluru FC.
Bharat FC’s head coach Stuart Watkiss accepted the fact that the team has had two difficult weeks but they are ready to prove their mettle against the Mariners.
“Yes the last two weeks have not been particularly easy. We have had two defeats in a row but I think this game is the perfect occasion for the team to bounce back and prove its mettle. We are playing the oldest club in India, the current table-toppers. A positive result against such a good side will do my team a world of good and I am sure the lads have given that a thought,” said Watkiss.
Bagan’s coach Sanjoy Sen insisted that his side will settle for no less than all three points, and expects the tough game against the Lions.
“If you want to be the champions then you’ve to earn all three points. Will be looking to extend the lead to four points with four games to go after this match. It is very difficult to play against the struggling teams as these teams will do anything for survival. It will be tough game as Bharat FC being a new team would like to show to home fans that they can play good football.”
When asked about the traveling fans, who clearly make themselves audible in the stands, Sen elaborated about the role fans play during the game.
“Fans certainly play role in games course as the way they support team, it can lift team’s morale. It is always nice wherever you go clubs like Mohun Bagan, East Bengal have huge fan following, not only in Kolkata, but also all over the country. The most important thing is it doesn’t matter which club you’re supporting, but people are coming to watch football,” said 54-years old head coach.
On the team front news, Bharat FC will have full squad available for selection except New Zealand international striker Kris Bright who is nursing a hamstring injury. On the counter-part Bagan will welcome back striker Balwant Singh back into the playing XI after suspension following a red card against Royal Wahingdoh FC.
Kick-off: 7 PM
