The aim for English in the national curriculum is to promote high standards of language and literacy by equipping pupils with a strong command of the spoken and written language, and to develop their love of literature through widespread reading for enjoyment. The national curriculum for English aims to ensure that all pupils:
At Horton, we ensure this is achieved by:
Our Calculation Policy:
Gifted and Talented Addition Beyond Primary
The national curriculum for mathematics aims to ensure that all pupils:
Mathematics is an interconnected subject in which pupils need to be able to move fluently between representations of mathematical ideas. The programmes of study are, by necessity, organised into apparently distinct domains, but pupils should make rich connections across mathematical ideas to develop fluency, mathematical reasoning and competence in solving increasingly sophisticated problems. They should also apply their mathematical knowledge to science and other subjects.
The expectation is that the majority of pupils will move through the programmes of study at broadly the same pace. However, decisions about when to progress should always be based on the security of pupils' understanding and their readiness to progress to the next stage. Pupils who grasp concepts rapidly should be challenged through being offered rich and sophisticated problems before any acceleration through new content. Those who are not sufficiently fluent with earlier material should consolidate their understanding, including through additional practise, before moving on.
At Horton we ensure that this is achieved through:

Erikson's Stages of Psychosocial Development
This book describes the lifelong process of psychosocial development as presented by Erik Erikson. From birth to death, people change physically, intellectually, psychologically, emotionally, and socially. Erikson described a set of specific developmental tasks to be mastered in order for a person to get from one stage to the next. According to Erikson, each stage is the foundation for the next, therefore, if the tasks of any stage of development are not mastered, the subsequent stages will be difficult. Erikson's theory of psychosocial development describes what the successful completion of each stage looks like, and what to expect if a person has not been successful at completing one or more stages. Everything You Need to Know About Erikson's Stages of Psychosocial Development provides an overview that clearly explains the major components of Erikson's theory. This book, describes each stage of psychosocial development from infancy through old age. Each stage is described with the details of the psychosocial crisis and the tasks of the central process. The people who make up the radius of significant relationships are identified. The prime adaptive ego quality and core pathology are explained. Suggestions are offered on how to assist infants, children, adolescents, adults, and the elderly through their developmental processes, and how people with issues from the past can use a developmental approach to get on track.
This book is a staple for anyone who wants to make a difference with others, personally or professionally. Everything You Need to Know About Erikson's Stages of Psychosocial Development is an ideal quick reference for students of psychology, counseling, social work, nursing, and education.
An Introduction to Erikson's Stages of Psychosocial Development
Understanding human development is an important part of understanding problems. Every age group has specific strengths and risk factors. Human services professionals conduct assessment, treatment, and case management for clients of all ages. Effective counselors and psychologists know what is normal and healthy at each stage of development. Some human service professionals teach parents the importance of adolescents assuming different personas as they explore their identity. Others teach caregivers the importance of giving the elderly choices to help them retain a sense of competence.
Erik Erikson's psychosocial theory is epigenetic, meaning that Erikson recognized the influences of both nature and nurture. Biological development is governed by the evolution of the species as well as the familial genetics. All species develop in stages, and all members negotiate those stages in a specific order and with similar outcomes. Humans walk erect, have the capacity for language, and interpret symbols. Genetics determine the specific size and shape of a person, their physical strengths and weaknesses, and their vulnerabilities to disease and injury. Mental and emotional disorders such as schizophrenia, anxiety, depression, and addiction are all heritable. An individual's intelligence, artistic ability, and athleticism are also part of one's genetic profile. Environmental influences on development include nurturance, safety, toxins, and trauma, learning, and socialization. The psychosocial stages of development are based upon how psychological and social factors affect humans throughout their lives.

As promised in the first part of "Hryre recommends", guitarist Nathan Patchett has collected and brought to your attention a small batch of favorite albums that were released in 2015. See them below.
Myrkur- M
This lady has had a lot of hate directed towards her and its absolutely appalling! There have been a lot of people complaining that this isn't "true" black metal but what is "true" black metal anyway? If it sounds good then it's good. This album captivated me from the first listen and is one of those albums that I can listen to over and over again and not lose interest. Amalie Bruun's singing is beautiful and in terms of her screams and growls, she can give any male vocalist in the genre a good run for their money. The music is enchanting, with beautifully layered compositions that are enhanced by the wonderful production of Kristofer Rygg. Hands down, my favourite black metal release of 2015.
Krallice- Ygg Hur
If you haven't listened to Krallice before then you need to do so. These are another progressive black metal band from New York that also have a slight technical edge which at times gives them a sound akin to a black metal Dillinger Escape Plan!
Chiral – The Night Sky
This is another one of those albums that can be listened to over and over again and not become stale. The use of acoustic passages create a sense of calm and a bit of respite from the overall intensity of the album, and the bluesy lead sections and harmonised passages are, for me, the icing on the cake.
Amiensus- Ascension
Yet another great band from the United States. On Ascension, Amiensus have created an album with an eclectic mix of genres from black metal and death metal, to gothic and folk music that combines shrieks and growls with pleasant clean vocals that create an album that is both heavy yet melodic.

Washington, Aug. 31 : Tech research firm, IDC, in its latest report has forecasted that the growing wearable computing market with devices like Google Glass and smartwatches along with the increased preference for 'phablet' devices is going to affect the global shipment of tablets and take them down marginally in the near future.
IDC has predicted that total tablet shipment worldwide would now be 227.4 million down by 0.8 percent from the firm's earlier projection.
According to New York Daily News, IDC's forecast for 2017 went down by 0.7 percent to 407 million.
Research Analyst for IDC's Worldwide Quarterly Tablet Tracker, Jitesh Ubrani said that year-on-year growth is beginning to slow as the tablet market approaches early stages of maturity.
Recently analysts blamed Apple's lack of innovative and newer tablet devices affecting the worldwide shipment of tablets manufactured by rival companies leading to a global slowdown.
Google's smart eyewear, Google Glass which allows users to search the Web, take pictures and make calls much like tablets do in a relatively easier manner along with smartwatches are expected to fuel the cut down in tablet shipments.
However, IDC said that this year's forecast is on track to beat 2012 shipments by nearly 58 percent, the report added.

In the end, a general contractor is responsible for carrying out all aspects of the renovation project and making sure that the end result suits your expectations.
4 things to know about masonry renovation projects:
- Bulging walls are a common problem for exterior brick walls. Many people land on our website by typing the "bulging wall" keyword on search engines. Despite this fact, the condition remains little known. Unfortunately, the consequences can be quite serious. The main sign to help you recognize a bulging brick wall is that a section of it is either sinking in or leaning out. If your house is covered in bricks, it is important to conduct routine inspections to catch this type of problem before it gets too bad. In worst case situations, the wall could end up collapsing because the structural integrity would be affected.
- Prices can vary from one extreme to another, depending on the amount of work to be done and the type of repair that needs to be completed. Try to seek out the opinion of several companies before signing a contract. Compare the quotes according to the final amount they are charging and the services that are included.
- Masonry is a field where people often try to DIY. Although good tutorials can be found on the Internet and some tasks can be completed without having advanced skills, it is always recommended to hire professionals. Mistakes are too easy and can have dire consequences.
- How is it possible to recognize a brick that is too damaged for possible repair? Crumbling bricks are a common problem. Sometimes, the damage is entirely superficial and doesn't affect the stability of the wall. This means that it isn't necessary to replace bricks as soon as they show signs of wear and tear. However, it is still important to investigate in order to make sure that the damage isn't too serious. In order to do so, use a metal rod or a utensil. Without hitting too hard, lightly tap the brick. If the surface starts disintegrating and turns to dust, this indicates that the brick needs to be replaced. Often, several bricks in the same area will have to be changed.

Sounds like it's official - our favorite Red Sox catcher, #33 Jason Varitek, will announce his retirement on Thursday. It's bittersweet, because we'll miss him at the games we make it to this season. However, if Varitek knows it's time to retire, we have to totally respect that.
We just wanted to share a few shots of Varitek we have taken over the years. We hope you enjoy them as much as we do.
We've been to Camden Yards a few times (Fenway South), and we've taken many photos there. We highly suggest the ballpark tour, if you ever get down there.
Another game at Camden Yards, Cash caught most of this game but Varitek came in near the end.
Tropicana Field in St.Pete is said to have the closest seats to home plate of any MLB field (50 feet). Yeah, we were about that close for this photo.
Thanks for all the great memories, Capt'n. Enjoy a well deserved retirement.

|Marantz PM6004 Integrated Amplifier Review
|Tuesday, 20 December 2011
Page 1 of 2
Integrated amplifiers are probably more popular than ever before. Today, many companies offer a one box, convenient solution loaded with features and requiring fewer cables / less rack space, which allows for full system control with just one remote. That is not to mention that advances in design have made it possible for audio engineers to produce great sounding, easy to use products at even entry level price points. The engineers at the iconic brand Marantz have done this for many years running, and continue to do that today.
There is a bit of a romantic notion of owning a hifi component made by a lone artisan, focused on "hand crafting" products one at a time using proprietary designs produced in low numbers. In the case of electronics, these products are usually featureless by design, in the quest for "sonic purity". I have been there and done that. While this notion is indeed enticing, and being part of a small club made up of select few owners has its appeal, there are drawbacks as well. Getting service if a repair is needed can be an issue. And warranties are generally only good if the purveyors of these fine products are still in business, or in some cases, alive. More than a few one man shops in high end audio have closed their doors, or their owners have passed on.
On the flip side, a powerhouse like Marantz, who has been at the game for over 60 years, can leverage technology and sheer purchasing volume to produce remarkable products, even at entry level. Very few companies offer a full line of CD and SACD players, AV receivers, file players, turntables, power amplifiers, and integrated amps for under a grand. And the others that do would have a tough time using premium grade parts, trickle down reference level technology, all with worldwide distribution.
Speaking of components under a grand, I received for review a sample of the new PM6004 Integrated amplifier from Marantz. The PM6004 retails for $599. The feature list is impressive, to say the least. The unit comes with user-defeatable balance and tone controls, six line level inputs, two sets of high quality binding posts, two recording outputs, and a remote control that can work multiple Marantz components. If that were not enough, there is a built in Moving Magnet phono stage. The PM6004 offers 45 watts per channel into 8 ohms and 60 watts per channel into 4 ohms.
The PM6004, incidentally, is a successor to the well reviewed PM6003. According to Marantz, "the PM6004 features audiophile-grade engineering. The strategic difference between the PM6003 and the new PM6004 is that now both the pre-amplification and power amplification sections exclusively feature discrete components, with not a single IC employed. Specially selected single components not only outperform ICs in quality, they also make it possible to refine the sound in much more detail, resulting in more clarity and transparency in the sound stage." It must be noted that to find discrete components instead of the ubiquitous integrated circuits at this price point is rather unusual.
Set Up & Listening:
Despite some very advanced engineering and a bunch of features, the PM6004 is incredibly easy to set up and use. Plug in your sources and power cord, and hit Play. I used a DH Lab Encore power cord and Kimber interconnects, with QED speaker cable. My sources were a Marantz CD5003 disc spinner, and a Logitech Squeezebox Touch connected to a Musical Fidelity V-DAC II. For most of the review period, I used my Harbeth Compact 7ES3 speakers on Sound Anchor stands.
Within the first ten minutes of my initial listening session, I already knew this review process was going to be a very pleasant one. The music flowed beautifully, with plenty of body and soul. There was not the least amount -- I mean not an ounce -- of detectable mechanical or electronic artifacts. I have heard way more expensive amplifiers that have maybe provided more resolution, but along with a clearly detectable silicon haze that never let you forget you were listening to solid state.

The bf and I often times head over the river to Covington for lunch - he's picking me up and I hate parking downtown - so to the Suspension Bridge we go!
But we've gone nearly everywhere - so we think - so this time we circled the courthouse area and found a new deli we hadn't yet ventured to: Madison's Cafe & Deli.
Everybody that works there is uber-friendly! It's sort of a "we already know you - so get your butt in here and eat!" kind of feeling if that makes sense. The menu is on the big wall behind them...
They had free sushi to try. It's someone local that's delivering fresh sushi every day. A full tray (same size as ones you see here 12-15 pieces if I could count right) is $6.95 I think. I tried the sushi - don't like it. It's just not fresh - tastes like the stuff at the Chinese buffets...that's not sushi!
Lar got the philly and a side of bacon potato salad. The philly he didn't like much - thought the meat tasted funny and he doesn't like peppers and onions much either. He also thought the bread was too hard and crusty. (He's turning into a food critic before my very eyes!) I tasted the meat and didn't think it was too bad...but it was only a very very small taste.
The potato salad was really really great. I definitely loved that although I couldn't eat the whole scoop - it's pretty rich. But that was definitely the star... (you can get it to go for your holiday get-togethers).
I got the Reuben panini...didn't much care for it. The meat didn't taste that great and I think the panini-ing of the sandwich just took a lot away. I'm more a fan of the Izzy's thick and juicy rather than smushed and crusty.
Overall - it's probably not a spot I'll go back to. The place is cute and the staff is very friendly - but we just didn't love our sandwiches.
The potato salad rocked though...

Mason has answered the call of scholars for a new, critical history of the Pharisees. Required is a careful analysis of each source's evidence as a prior condition of historical judgments. By analyzing Flavius Josephus' portrayal of the group, this study clarifies some of the crucial evidence that any hypothesis must explain. Josephus writes about the Pharisees in three of his four extant works, describing their actions under the Hashmoneans, Herod the Great, and during his own tenure as Galilean commander of the revolt against Rome. This study tries to show how his discussions of the Pharisees contribute to his literary aims. With the help of K.H. Rengstorf's new concordance, the author explores the ten pertinent passages in their contexts, supplying also introductory chapters on the Jedean War, the Jewish Antiquities, and the Life. This analysis yields the conclusion that, although the Pharisees were the most popular party in first-century Judaism, Josephus was consistently hostile toward them for reasons peculiar to his own situation.
Steve Mason is Associate Professor of Humanities at Vanier College, York University, Ontario. He is the author of Josephus and the New Testament among other titles.

Dollhouse | UofC SCPA Student Review, Tessa Leier
Fluid Festival 2016 presents the thrilling and shattering performance of Dollhouse, featuring Bill Coleman, a master performer and tap legend, and Gordon Monahan, a well-known and innovative composer. The unique performance is brought to life through the use of such atypical sound devices as broken shards of glass, mouse traps, a ladder, velcro tiles, metal bowls full of boiling hot water, and plates attached to metal wires, which are used to create sounds unique to the battle Coleman faces throughout his journey. As the journey progresses, Coleman appears to be in agonizing pain, if the crackles, pops, and snaps he encounters while being shattered to the floor within his suit of glass, rolling over at least fifty mouse traps, and losing his clothes along the way are any indication. His ghostly visage, across which flits expressions varying from pain, to surprise, and what might well be a look of transcendence, haunts the audience; yet creates a sense of wonder in the viewer as they ask themselves why this poor man is so often in this much pain. Occasionally, Coleman's use of chaotic movement produces welcome comic relief in the form of laugh out loud moments, in which everyone joins. Using unsettling sound, arising from unique and inspiring production methods, Coleman shares his journey through the Dollhouse. The question remains: will he make it out of the Dollhouse alive?

The answer is simply: No. I was a graphic designer who didn't attend any art classes and look at where I am now. As an artist though, to say I know everything, is a lie. But, the same concept also applies to other artists, whether or not you attend art school. Just because you attended school does not mean you know everything, it MAY give you some type of advantage.
I recently interviewed a multi-medium talented artist: Steven Howard. He actually did go to an art program for his undergraduate, attended a local school in Atlanta actually, Kennesaw State University. Howard refers to himself by day as a Graphic Designer, but by night fall he works on a lot of different arts: freelance design, tshirts, illustrations, and/or 3-d modeling. Basically, he dabbles in a bit of everything.
Howard is a father of a newborn (Congrats Steven!), but that doesn't mean it interferes with his life as an artist. He always drew to begin with but never considered it as an actual career. Funny story, he told me he always got in trouble for drawing Spiderman in his computer program classes.
Transitioning to art school and its benefits
In all, he really enjoyed art school when he made the transition. At The Creative Folks, we believe you should always follow your passions. If art school makes you happy, you should definitely invest in it to go, it's a great networking opportunity for artists to begin with. "The best thing I got out of college, was networking," Howard said and we couldn't agree more. That's actually how TCF even became a thing was because of networking inside college.
Howard started off as a caricature artist, but then clients started asking about design. Being the opportunist he was, he took them on which really landed him where he is today, working as a Graphic Designer.
College or courses in general, especially within the atmosphere with other people serve as a great environment for an artist to reach out of your comfort zone. Often, we are too caught up with our own work and style, we don't want others' opinions to interfere and make us diverge.
Thus, this type of work environment can actually do you wonders. For example, Howard enjoyed art
school enough for a spark in other artistic passions. He took sculpting, typography, electronic illustration, and design.
In an art course, there are more techniques you can probably learn better in school environment. There's more enforcement to PRACTICE what you've learned, versus learning on your own, but don't forget we live in a digital age. "You can learn everything I learned in school on the internet now," he says.
Why you don't need to go to art school
For those who may not have the means, may not be motivated, or don't see the reason for art school, don't fret. If I can do it, you can do it. If you never heard it, well you're hearing it today: college is not for everyone. I do believe that classes though, especially skill specific classes are more manageable.
Howard works hard, but now probably a lot harder for his newborn, and that's something that can't be taught in college. "You can't be a lazy artist, you won't make it," Howard told me. For me too, in my journey as a graphic designer and in transition into a marketing designer, you really can't slack. School or no school, there's no room for either category to even slack. So you really have to hustle creatives, brand yourself, hustle, and keep creating — don't ever lose your creativity to the world of 9-5 work.
Think about this too, creatives:
"You don't need to go to school to be a basketball player, you play basketball to be a basketball player" – Steven Howard
You are an artist if you make art. Skill level defines the monetary gain and values you can receive for your art but it doesn't make you less of an artist. All artists are in learning stages, even the greatest.
Be open to learning.
Be open to exploring more opportunities.
FEED THE HUSTLE.Sharing is caring!

After our last trip to Austin, I was craving more US adventures. We were deciding between Maine and Cape Cod, and ultimately, Portland won us over. We prepared for a nice, long weekend of eating and taking in the sights of the quaint city. Thankfully, I had some friends direct me to some of the best eats (and some we weren't too fond of). I stand by the fact that everyone's tastebuds are different, and a restaurant that someone loves immensely may not be the same for another (I hate Yelp, but I'll save that for another day). Instead of boring you guys with paragraphs and paragraphs of details, here are some condensed bullets with some of the highlights.
- Woke up at 4AM to start the drive. I managed to drive three hours to Massachusetts, where Kevin and I immediately switched seats. This marks the longest distance and time I've ever driven (#milestone?)
- Arrived at our Homeaway and were greeted by the sweetest hosts who gave us a thorough mini-tour of their property as well as any kind of information we would need regarding food, activities, and more. Highly recommend this place to stay if you're looking to visit Portland!
- Started off the eating portion of the trip with a delicious bang at Eventide Oyster Co. I've already posted about it, so I'll spare all the delicious details.
- To feed my growing love of beer, we took a tour of the Allagash Brewing Company. The tour ended with a tasting of their main beer, Allagash White, and several other beers. I would recommend making a reservation online ahead of time (plus it's free!).
- Duckfat was highly recommended to us by a few people, but unfortunately, the meal itself was incredibly salty. It was impossible to enjoy the poutine from the overload of salt, and the sandwich that we shared was okay at best.
- When I read "mashed potato doughnuts," I was expecting literal... doughnuts made out of mashed potatoes. One can only dream, right? The Holy Donut uses real mashed Maine potatoe in their dough. The result? A pretty tasty doughnut with visible potato bits in the cooked product. Still can't beat a NYC classic, Doughnut Plant (but I may or may not be biased). {Note: we were rushing to get back to catch our cruise, so I wasn't able to snap any good photos, booooo.}
- At the recommendation of our Homeaway hosts, we ventured downtown to collect some brochures for lobstering. Lucky Catch Cruises seemed the most appealing, with several different kinds of boat rides ranging from a tour of nearby lighthouses to seal watching. We chose the seal watching ride and managed to catch a morning session. We were all given aprons and gloves to participate in baiting and pushing the traps back into the water, which made this particular activity one of my favorite parts of our trip.
- If you actually manage to catch some lobsters on the cruise, you can purchase them and have them for lunch at the Portland Lobster Company right next door. Unfortunately for us, no lobsters were caught, but we ventured over anyway. The real winner for me here were the fried scallops.
- Stopped by Hot Suppa before opening time for breakfast fuel before our hike. Probably one of our better decisions of the trip—the hash browns that accompanied both of our breakfast entrees were crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. The highly-praised corned beef hash didn't disappoint our ravenous appetites, but I still prefer the ones from Louie's in NY.
- Who knew a sweaty morning of hiking would be the absolute highlight of our trip? With the help of Instagram (scouring through Portland, ME hashtags), I found Tumbledown Mountain as our hiking destination. I recommend the Brook Trail for beginners. This trail was the most direct route to get to the pond at the top, but regardless, it was a grueling three hour hike. The last leg of the hike was quite steep, and it didn't help that we were essentially climbing rocks. Worth it? Definitely.
- A little out of the way, but we had to stop by Red's Eats! Voted #1 lobster roll in Maine, but not the best lobster roll that I've had. I think the only reason people say it's the best is because of the amount of fresh lobster that's stuffed into these things—that doesn't automatically win "best lobster roll" in my book. However, the fried scallops and fried shrimp were on. point.
- We were beginning to get sick of lobster rolls (oops!), so we opted out when we visited Fisherman's Grill. Instead, we finally got our clam chowder fix with a side of seared scallops and fries. Hands down the best clam chowder, but the seared scallops had me on another planet. The preparation was incredibly simple, but they were easily the best things we ate on the trip. Perfectly buttered and juicy... Excuse me while I wipe the drool off of my keyboard.
- Did I say we were sick of lobster rolls? Bite Into Maine changed that for me with their picnic style lobster roll. It was raining and windy, but it was worth getting soaked to the bone for these rolls. Coleslaw in sandwiches makes the world go round. We almost opted out of coming here, but I'm glad we were able to end the trip with a bang.
- With Bite Into Maine, the Portland Head Light was the next destination because they were at Fort Williams Park. Unfortunately, with all the rain and wind, we weren't able to fully enjoy the views, but that didn't stop us form running out, getting soaked, and enjoying ourselves like five-year-olds stomping around in the rain.
So much for making this a shorter post! I got lazy towards the end of the trip, so the rest of the photos are from my iPhone, oops.
While it was a nice little getaway from the hustle of NYC, I probably could not see myself living in Maine. The food was to die for, and the takeaway from this trip is to only stick with the seafood and the little hole-in-the-walls. We tried to visit places like Honey Paw and Duckfat, but because we're so spoiled with all the amazing food in NYC, these foods don't ever seem to match up. Granted we weren't able to try Central Provisions among others, hopefully I'll be able to visit again someday to visit our favorite Portland spots again and to try some new spots.

The latest poll out today from Rasmussen Reports finds support for Obamacare still dropping among the American people, with 54% opposed to the socialist overhaul of our health care system. Only 24% strongly favor it (these are probably hard-core Marxists and people who work very hard to avoid serious employment).
Even one of President Obama's main cheering sections, CNN, admits the honeymoon is over for the American people:
Click here for the entire story.According to the poll, which was released Tuesday, 48 percent of people questioned say that they agree with Obama on the issues that matter most to them, with 51 percent saying no. That's a switch from April, when 57 percent said they agreed with the president on important issues, with 41 percent disagreeing.

Dear friends,
Today we continue a series of talks by Brother Phap Hai on The Eight Verses of Mind Training. Our brother invites us to return to the earth of our practice with the second and third verses:
"Whenever I interact with anyone, may I consider myself as lower and from the depths of my heart may I consider the other person as a treasure."
"In everything I do, may I look deeply into my mind and as soon as I recognize a mistaken view that endangers myself or others, may I practice diligently to embrace and to transform it."
Now, enjoy this moment to stop and look deeply.

I'm very excited to be presenting at the upcoming Ohio State Medical Association Practice Management Symposium on April 1, 2011 in Columbus. My topic is, of course, social media. The title of the presentation is "Engage Online Or Risk Being Left Behind."
Something very cool is that I've been told is that all the sessions will be recorded. So, I'm hoping at some point, that I'll be able to post the prezo here on the site. Plus, if I can figure it out, I'll place my slide on slideshare. But, I don't know how helpful they will be as I don't write a lot of words and I use a lot of pics. I guess I have a little pet peeve about writing a lot - or even any words on slides. I'm weird like that.
I've been told that the crowd will probably not be that familiar with social media. So, I have to make sure that I don't talk too much above their heads. As you can probably imagine, I get excited about social media, and I can easily get carried away with intermediate or advanced concepts and ideas. This isn't good if it's a beginner-type audience.
Did you know that the OSMA has one of the first guidelines published for physicians using social media? If you haven't had a chance, I encourage you to check it out. Thanks again to the OSMA for the opportunity to speak. In addition, for the OSMA members out there, please register for their annual meeting which includes business sessions for policy writing and legislative advocacy. Let your voice be heard!

The Rails
Upcoming gigs
There are currently no gigs listed for this artist
The Rails are running. English singer-songwriter duo Kami Thompson and James Walbourne have reached deep into their rich musical histories to concoct the kind of sharp, true folk rock blend rarely heard since the Seventies. Produced with indie legend Edwyn Collins and featuring folk frontierswoman Eliza Carthy on fiddle, The Rails debut album Fair Warning is a little wonder, packed with traditional and original songs that stand outside of time yet resonate with contemporary urgency. Recognising perfection when they hear it, Island records have revived their vintage Pink Label for the duo, home to John Martyn, Nick Drake and Fairport Convention.
"There is something about folk as an ideal that we were reaching towards," says Kami. "Music by the people, for the people. Songs so icky, and potent, and heart wrenching, they could have been written five hundred years or ten minutes ago, it doesn't matter."
"We wanted something almost simplistic," says James. "Singing, fiddle, electric guitar, no tricks. You can hear everything, it's bare. It's hard to convince people to make a record like that now but the sound is fantastic, it's so direct."

Latest insights from our experts
Will declared valid despite testator's waning mental capacity
Burns v Burns (2016)
Court of Appeal recently upheld the will of an 83-year-old woman despite documented concerns over her mental health at the time the Will was executed.
The testator had instructed her solicitor to draft a new Will for her in late 2004, however, by the time she signed the Will in July 2005 her mental health had considerably declined.
In order for the Will to be found valid, the Court of Appeal had to be satisfied that Ms Burns knew and approved of the contents of the Will at the time of execution. It held that Ms Burns had sufficient mental capacity when she instructed the solicitor in late 2004 and her 2005 Will was therefore valid, despite the decline in her mental health.
This case should serve as a reminder of the Court's potentially stringent approach where a claimant seeks to prove lack of capacity to execute a Will. In the Court's view, the testator still had capacity to understand and execute a Will despite the "deficits" in her memory. However, as the Will in question was in a relatively simple format, it remains to be seen whether the same decision would have been reached had the testamentary intentions been more complex.
This should also act as a reminder to us all that the safest route when preparing a new Will is usually to ensure that the document is finalised and executed in a timely fashion.

Despite mortgage rates standing at a 24-year low, figures from the British Banker's' Association (BBA) showed a four month low for mortgage approvals in January.
This followed rises for six successive months, which left mortgages at an eleven month high.
The figures back up last week's statistics from the Council for Mortgage Lenders, which showed the lowest amount of mortgage lending since April 2012.
The CML said that it was worried about rising inflation making it harder for people to afford to take out a new mortgage.
The BBA figures showed that gross lending in January was £7.7 billion, down from £8.4 billion in December, with mortgage approvals down 14pc.
David Dooks, statistics director for the BBA said: "January's severe weather impacted adversely on what was already a subdued picture of borrowing".
He said that concerns over the wider health of the British economy were putting people off.
"While general economic growth stalls, low consumer and business confidence generates a natural tendency to restrain borrowing appetite, repay borrowing where possible and to build up cash and savings as a buffer."
The Government's Funding for Lending Scheme (FLS), which offers cash at cheap rates to banks so long as they lend to businesses and households, has been credited with a revival in mortgage availability.
Rates have fallen dramatically. However, the BBA figures suggest that many households are still in no position to buy a home.
Net mortgage borrowing fell by £400m during the month, the BBA said, with the average house purchase approval falling to £145,300 from £152,000 in December.
Personal deposits rose by 6.2pc over the year to January and approvals for remortgaging and other loans were around 28pc and 36pc lower respectively than in January 2012 as households paid back debt.
The outstanding level of individuals' borrowing through personal loans is now almost half its peak in late 2007/early 2008.
Outstanding unsecured borrowing contracted by 1.6pc over the year. Within that, a 7pc contraction in personal loans and overdrafts offset a 5.5pc rise in credit card borrowing.
New spending on credit cards in January of £7.2bn was lower than December but in line with the recent monthly average despite weak retail sales volumes in January.
Businesses continued to pay back loans with overall borrowing levels continuing to fall as firms reduced debt as they await more stable trading conditions.

Corsewall Lighthouse is situated on the northern tip of the Rhins of Galloway peninsula. Overlooking the North Channel of the Irish Sea, it guards the approaches to Loch Ryan and the Firth of Clyde.
One of the many Scottish lighthouses built by successive generations of the Stevenson family over more than 150 years, it first became operational in 1817 and is still operated by the Northern Lighthouse Board. It was automated in 1994, since when much of the accommodation and outer buildings have been converted into a hotel.

Today we head to Lake Placid. I will be coaching at the second annual QT2 Systems Training camp. I have been coming up to Placid 2-3 times a year since my first Ironman in 2002. The town has changed, gotten a lot more crowded with athletes, but it's still the same.
It's beautiful.
There is just something magical about it. The water, the mountains…. the feeling up there. It's all about wellness. Through my years coming to Placid I have been through a lot. It's been a place of healing for me in many ways.
I love to come up and coach at our camps. It gives me the opportunity to meet our athletes and get to know them. We are spread all over the country and these people are like family to me (both my colleagues and our athletes). I feel like it's coming home.
This particular camp I get the chance to get the training I need to get done in, my schedule will vary from the campers a bit so it works out great. At this rate I will be back in for the Musselman 1/2 Ironman and not the Mini. As long as this block of training remains uninterrupted I am set, and that makes me real excited. I am feeling good and feeling strong and things…. are coming together.
It's been a long road and trust me, there is longer to go. But that's for 2014 chatter.
I am bringing my amazing massage therapist with me to Placid. Her name is Kara C. and she works in the spa at Midtown Athletic Club. She's coming to join Courtney W. in massaging our athletes as they go through the weekend. It will be Kara's first time in Placid….. and if you've been there you know how special that will be.
Mandatory stop for Kara tomorrow: ski jumps. Because there is no view like the view from the top. This is not that view, but you get the idea.
Training camps are a perfect way to get in some solid training, away from your normal every day life, in a beautiful location with people who share the same passion that you do. It's a weekend to train, learn and make connections.
And I will report!

Northport teen charged in fatal stabbing
TUSCALOOSA, Ala. (AP) — A 17-year-old Northport girl has been arrested and charged with murder in the stabbing death of her ex-boyfriend.
Police said the two had argued over a pair of his shorts and got into a street fight.
Capt. Loyd Baker of the Tuscaloosa County Metro Homicide Unit said Startricia Mashae Robinson was arrested Saturday at Green Village trailer park.
She was arrested by Northport police within an hour of the 11:45 a.m. stabbing, he said. Baker said Robinson was charged as an adult with first-degree murder, with bond set at $50,000. The victim, 17-year-old Timmy Young, was taken to DCH Regional Medical Center where he died from a stab wound in the chest.

SEOUL – South Korean President Moon Jae-in said Wednesday that although it is "undeniable" that the 2015 deal with Japan on "comfort women" forced to work in Japanese wartime military brothels is official, Tokyo should still offer a "heartfelt" apology.
"The fact that there was an official agreement between Korea and Japan cannot be denied. It is also important to deal with Korea's relationship with Japan carefully," Moon said during a televised news conference.
The president said how to handle the money offered by Japan will be decided in consultations with the Japanese government and other relevant parties.
Under the deal, Japan provided ¥1 billion ($8.8 million) to a South Korean foundation set up to support Korean victims.
"If the money can be used for good causes in a way to help resolve the comfort women issue, and if Japan, the victims and civic groups agree to the idea, I think it would be desirable as well," he said, according to the Yonhap news agency. "We will have more time to consult with Japan, victims and civic groups on that matter."
Moon also said South Korea will try to separate historical issues from efforts to develop future-oriented cooperation with Tokyo. But he also called for a "heartfelt apology" from Japan to the victims.
"Japan should accept the truth, apologize with a sincere heart and take (the comfort women issue) as a lesson and work with the international community in such a way that (such things) could not occur again," he said.
South Korea said Tuesday that it will not seek to renegotiate the deal — struck two years ago under the government of then-President Park Geun-hye to "finally and irreversibly" resolve the long-standing issue — though it wants Japan to do more to settle it.
Moon said his government would continue taking measures to heal the psychological wounds of the victims so as to restore their honor and dignity.
In Tokyo, Chief Cabinet Secretary Yoshihide Suga rejected Moon's call for Tokyo to do more to settle the comfort women issue, saying Tokyo "cannot accept at all" such a demand by South Korea.
Given that both countries had agreed to settle the issue "finally and irreversibly" in December 2015, Suga said the two countries are supposed to steadily implement that deal.
On the North Korean nuclear issue, Moon said he would be willing to sit down with the nuclear-armed North's leader, Kim Jong Un, as the international community welcomed an agreement for Pyongyang to send its athletes to the Winter Olympics in the South.
The games in Pyeongchang next month have long been overshadowed by geopolitical tensions, with the North launching missiles capable of reaching the U.S. mainland in recent months and detonating by far its most powerful nuclear device to date.
But Pyongyang — which boycotted the 1988 Summer Olympics in Seoul — on Tuesday agreed to send athletes and officials to the event as North and South held their first formal talks for two years at Panmunjom in the Demilitarized Zone (DMZ).
"It is only the beginning," Moon said during his annual New Year's news conference Wednesday. "Yesterday was the first step and I think we had a good start.
"Bringing North Korea to talks for denuclearization is the next step we must take," he said.
He was willing to hold a summit "at any time," he said, as long as it was "under the right conditions."
"But it cannot be a meeting for meeting's sake," he said. "To hold a summit, the right conditions must be created and certain outcomes must be guaranteed."
Moon's sentiment echoed Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe, who has welcomed the talks, but voiced caution about the detente.
"Talks for the sake of talks are meaningless," Abe reiterated.
Pyongyang, however, has said it would not discuss its nuclear weapons with Seoul because they were only aimed at the United States, not its "brethren" in South Korea, nor Russia or China, showing that a diplomatic breakthrough remained far off.
Despite the frictions over nuclear weapons, the two sides agreed Tuesday to hold a military dialogue and resolve problems through negotiations. They plan to hold another round of talks, though haven't yet agreed on the date.
At the same time, Kim had another message for the U.S. on Tuesday. A commentary in the state-run Minju Joson said "it'll be wise for the U.S. to face reality" and accept North Korea as a nuclear state.
Moon has long supported engagement with the North to bring it to the negotiating table over banned weapons programs that have alarmed the U.S. and the global community, and have seen Pyongyang subjected to multiple sets of United Nations sanctions.
But the U.S. has said the regime must stop nuclear tests for negotiations with Washington to take place.
"We have no difference in opinion with the U.S.," Moon insisted, saying they shared an understanding about security, were working together and were both threatened by the North's nuclear weapons and missiles.
But he stressed that the aim of sanctions was to bring North Korea to talks, and "stronger sanctions and pressures could further heighten tensions and lead to accidental armed conflicts."
"But thankfully, North Korea came to dialogue before tensions were heightened further," he said.
Seoul had no plans to ease its own unilateral measures at present, Moon said.
U.S. President Donald Trump has a much closer relationship with Abe than he does with Moon, and has claimed credit for the North-South talks himself.
"If I weren't involved, they wouldn't be talking about the Olympics right now, they'd be doing no talking," Trump said over the weekend, ahead of the meeting.
Moon thanked him for his efforts Wednesday.
"I think President Trump's role in the realization of inter-Korean talks was very big." he said. "I would like to express my gratitude."
The U.S. cautiously welcomed the talks, but warned that the North's attendance at the games should not undermine international efforts to isolate Kim's regime.
Trump and Moon had already agreed "to continue the campaign of 'maximum pressure' on North Korea toward the goal of complete and verifiable denuclearization," the State Department said.
China — the North's major diplomatic backer and trade partner — and Russia, with which it also has strong ties, both welcomed the North-South talks.
Suga, Japan's top government spokesman, said Wednesday that Tokyo "highly valued" Pyongyang's expressed willingness to participate in the Olympics.
"But there is no change in our policy of exerting the maximum level of pressure on North Korea until they change their policy, in close cooperation with the U.S., South Korea, and also involving China and Russia," he added.
International Olympic Committee President Thomas Bach said Pyongyang's agreement to take part in Pyeongchang was a "great step forward in the Olympic spirit."

Video Overview
Diverticulosis or diverticular disease are out-pouchings of the colon. They occur as you get older and mostly associated with the high fat diet, a Western diet and obesity. Diverticular disease can lead to one of two things in a small percentage of patients. Diverticula can bleed. It can cause massive bleeding which would require urgent colonoscopic intervention or even surgery. Diverticula can actually perforate and this would also be potentially a life threatening emergency. This will require antibiotics, hospitalization and even potentially a surgery. The best way to avoid any of these problems is to adhere to a high fiber diet with plenty of fruits and vegetables, get plenty of exercise and drink plenty of water.

Comics & League of Legends lore/
I recently published a video... essay? Rant? A video on the recent 4 comics Riot put out for League as a way to expand the lore. As anyone who's followed me for a while would know, I have MANY THOUGHTS on LoL lore and how comics can help it flourish. Since 20 minutes might be a little long to ask anyone to spend on watching a video like that, I thought perhaps it'd be worth putting my thoughts into a more summarized, generalized format. For the full context of my opinions, see the video embedded below.
- League of Legends lore is a mess, under reconstruction. Most champions have little to no activity in the lore, and the number of champions who have had any lore activity in the last month or two can be counted on one hand.
- Riot Games has demonstrated a tendency to "lore dump" - putting out a huge volume of content all in one go - and then be extremely slow to follow up on plot threads and character drama, often preferring to move on to completely different things.
- Comics, by being a visual, incredibly accessible medium, can help shore up and bridge the gaps in LoL lore. Comics can be produced by small teams of people with limited resources on a relatively snappy schedule and quick turnaround.
- Comics can keep stories alive, keeping the audience in touch with otherwise overlooked characters and explore the status quo while major events and big progressions are being prepared in the background.
- League of Legends lacks ongoing, consistent, reliable lore output to build communities around. Comics - especially published as continuous webcomics - can provide this solid core, around which bigger experiments can be performed.
- Other companies managing huge stables of characters (Marvel, DC, Star Wars EU, etc) have used models of flexible canon successfully for a long time. These should be copied to the extent they make sense for LoL. Do not fear the retcon, do not fear putting out content that will be rendered non-canon or moot by a big release six months down the line.
- Community collaborations like the Academy comic, or Punches and Plants comics based on skin lines are a fantastic idea and should be made a bigger priority.

Lessons and observations from a week of The Clowns./
This evening we will meet to discuss the future of The Clowns, the rock opera that my co-writer and I have spent the last five years writing. With two weeks to reflect on the workshop process that brought The Clowns to the stage for the first time, I had some final thoughts:
1. When collaborating on a project, I strongly suggest that you find a partner who is considerably nicer than you and is willing to put forth 100% effort while gladly accepting 60% from you. It is an ideal situation.
2. When given the freedom and encouragement, actors are like writers without keyboards.
3. Similarly, directors are like editors without red pens. They, however, do not require the encouragement and simply assume the freedom.
4. Watching actors say lines that you wrote and become the characters that you envisioned while listening to the audience around you laugh and gasp and applaud is just as good as seeing your novel on a bookstore shelf.
5. I've acted before and thought this while doing so, but two weeks of rehearsals and performances confirmed it: Acting is a form of collaborative, non-competitive sport with much of the physicality of athletics and all of the pressure of a championship game on the line.

This message is to all my fellow peacemakers, sponsors and participants of the 2017 APMF Conference who share a common vision of peacemaking.
It is my honour as the member of the APMF Executive Committee and the convener of the 8th Asia Pacific Mediation Forum (APMF) Conference to be contributing towards the success of the conference in Da Nang Vietnam.
It is also an honour to be responsible for convening a global community of peacemakers to share ideas for professional development and good fellowship.
It is my belief that we must evolve a method of conflict resolution, if we as human beings are to evolve, and survive into the future. This method of dispute resolution must reject revenge, aggression and retaliation from the past and instead embraces peaceful co-existence for the future.
The theme for this conference is The Future of Mediation in the Asia Pacific Region
It is not a coincidence that I proposed the theme for the 2017 APMF Conference to be on the future and requested the venue be held in Da Nang, Vietnam.
Life teaches us that we look to the future it is prudent to remember what we learned in the past.
I have lived in Vietnam for the past 8 years and have come to learn that Da Nang symbolizes peace and re-unification for Vietnamese people. Da Nang is the city where the final U.S. ground combat operations in Vietnam ceased on 13 August 1972 ending a long and brutal war and unifying the country again.
It is my observation that both conflict and peace cannot survive without participation. Future wars cannot continue without warriors and a lasting peace cannot be achieved without peacemakers. Peacemakers are the guardians of human civilization.
I do believe that only through our continuous participation as peacemakers can humanity survive into the future
Thanks for your participation as global peacemakers.
Thomas G. Giglione
Member of APMF Executive Committee
Convener of the 8th APMF Conference

Cles des Ducs Armagnac Napoleon October 31, 2013Posted by Bacchus in : Armagnac , Email This Post , trackback
Cles des Ducs Armagnac Napoleon
Cles des Ducs Armagnac Napoleon composed of older eaux de vie, is more complex and mellow, with richness and depth coming from its interaction with the oak in which it ages. Since 1771, Cles des Ducs Armagnacs have been produced in Panjas, the heart of Bas-Armagnac. Armagnac is probably the world's oldest brandy.
Buy Cles des Ducs Armagnac Napoleon
Cles des Ducs – French for "The Keys of the Dukes" is distilled more slowly than
other French brandies and cognacs, which results in a fruitier, more fragrant and flavorful product. Lots of character, hints of dried fruits, vanilla and a long, soft, spicy finish.

Graphical Updates Of Web Designs
The title of my article says graphical updates of web designs, over here I can see three different terms- graphics, updates, and web design. To start with, I feel that most common people out there do not really realize that there is a difference between graphic design and web design. Generally, a layman sees both terms as one, either "art" or "creativity". But I think you have heard about the professions such as graphic designer and web designer, why do we call "art" or "creativity" profession by different titles?
Well, this is because graphics designing, and web designing are different. The field a designer works, the tools they use (some tools are common), and the people with whom they work or deal with are different. According to me, it is essential for us to know the difference between them, knowing the distinction will help us to hire designers in the future according to their relevant field of work. So, without further do, I am going to show you, why graphics design and web design are different?
Web design
Web design focuses on how to make the designs function properly on a website by working side-by-side with a web developer. A designer creates the elements by determining the color palette and typography. Sometimes a web designer requires the knowledge of coding like HTML and CSS for making their designs work in a website with ease. Moreover, they also must keep in mind that their designs should be flexible (fluid) so that it can adjust to any screen size like smartphones or a large screen tv.
Web designing has different areas to work like, interface design, web graphic design, placing buttons, determining the flow of information, user experience (UX), proprietary software and standard code and sometimes SEO (search engine optimization). All these kinds of work can be done by a single person with long duration of time or by a specialized team in a short period of time. You can choose your option according to your budget and urgency. If you have a big project, then it would be wise to go for the second option as with a team working there won't be a necessity of rework. It will save your time and money. On the flip side, if you have a small project, you may hire a single skilled person to complete your job by paying relatively small compared to a team.
There are so many technical issues a designer needs to bear in mind when designing a website like resolution, color, layout and image size. These factors bring a huge difference to the operation of a website. So, for colors, a web designer uses a different color mode than graphic designers called RGB. This mode focuses on the relationship between the structure of the information. By using too strong colors on a site it will cause visual fatigue to its visitors. Moreover, a web designer is aware of the unreliability of the color quality on different monitors and screens. So, a designer needs to think in different ways like if the color of the font is displayed light then the text will be unreadable, or the color of the background can be overwhelming if it appears as dark. A designer also requires considering the resolution of images as the image may render differently in various devices.
Responsive design is also one of the most important fields in web design, if not the most important nowadays. A site being responsive means it works on any device of any size or resolution, starting from a smartphone's small screen, tablets, up to large desktop screens which gives the best user experience to your audience that will easily access the information and content on your site on any hand-held device and, in the same time, with the increasing number of internet access on smartphones and tables, it gives your site the maximum online outreach and, of course, better sales and conversions. Recently, most of the search engines also require your site to be appropriately accessed on smartphones and tablets as well as, of course, desktop PCs which means, a responsive site.
When you build a site, you may be targeting to be on the first page of google search engine and you will be surprised to know that in the latest ranking factors of Google, it promotes or gives a better ranking to a site by its loading speed. So, a designer can make it possible by using compressed graphics that sacrifices quality for speed. Over-sized graphics increases the page load time. So, a designer needs to consider the loading time for every individual image as for slow internet connection users it can be frustrating, and Google penalizes such websites with a low ranking in search engines results.
Graphics design
The job of a graphic designer is completely different from a web designer as a graphic designer works in the static print-world. By static I mean, graphic designers expect designs to be fixed for printing. They traditionally do not experience the flexible or fluid design work as web designers do. If I say simply, then they design for a single fixed page like a banner, brochures, and flyers. As they work mostly for printing purposes, they usually use CMYK color mode. This color mode enhances the design by focusing on visual impact and visual flow guidance. The focus of a graphic designer is to make sure that the color of the print is consistent from the beginning to the end of a print at any size.
Now comes size
Unlike web designer, a graphic designer does not really need to worry about the size of an image as they need to make sure that the image size is large enough to produce an excellent print. Also, a graphic designer can work alone on a project from start to end or there are some designers who provide freelance services on different working portals. Nowadays, there are some graphic designers who can also do web designing. Thanks to the resources on the web that made such kind of designer who has skills on both sides of the spectrum.
Graphical updates 2018
This is a new year, a new beginning. So, you need to try something new and different too, to stand out from the crowd. People are tired of seeing the old designs again and again so it's high time to show your visitors something unique. This step will give your site a boost of traffic. The updates are as follows:
Say no to flat and minimalistic font
The old trendy font style, which used to be flat and minimalistic is fading away. Now, to make unique and eye-catching designs you can use bold and handwritten fonts
The driving force behind many design trends this year is the usage of bold colors everywhere. So, what are you waiting for, inject those bold colors in your website and make a different statement?
Rebranding with color schemes
In 2018, rather than sticking to one design, growing companies like Dropbox and eBay have re-branded them with a strike of unique and vibrant color schemes that helped them to stand out.
Social media images with better brand
In today's world, readers want some original and unique images on their news feeds other than the old cheesy stock photos.
Illustrations with more customizations
The brands in these days, are moving towards custom illustrations and icons rather than the old cookie-cutter graphics.
If you want to add a classy touch to any of your design projects, then you must use cinemagraphs. They have less movement compared to GIFS.
Back to 90s
From websites to twitter headers to presentations, color gradients will be literally everywhere as if we are still in the 90s.
Usage of GIFS in another level
More custom branded GIFS and less corny reaction GIFS is the new graphical update this year. So, you need to take your GIF usage one level up.
These were the 8 new graphical updates in web design this year, hope you are well updated and use these updates to be one step ahead of your competitors.

COPD-Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a common respiratory condition involving the airways and characterized by airflow limitation. It affects more than 5 percent of the population and is associated with a high level of chronic illness andd mortality.
It is the third-ranked cause of death in the United States, killing more than 120,000 individuals each year]. Due to its high prevalence and chronicity, COPD causes high resource utilization with frequent clinician office visits, hospitalizations due to acute exacerbations, and the need for chronic therapy (eg, supplemental oxygen therapy, medications)
There are two different large sub-types with multiple variations or combinations in between.
Chronic bronchitis — Chronic bronchitis is defined as a chronic productive cough for three months in each of two successive years in a patient in whom other causes of chronic cough (eg, bronchiectasis) have been excluded. It may precede or follow development of airflow limitation. This definition has been used in many studies, despite the arbitrarily selected symptom duration.
Emphysema — Emphysema is defined by abnormal and permanent enlargement of the airspaces distal to the terminal bronchioles that is accompanied by destruction of the airspace walls, without obvious fibrosis (ie, there is no fibrosis visible to the naked eye). Exclusion of obvious fibrosis was intended to distinguish the alveolar destruction due to emphysema from that due to the interstitial pneumonias. However, many studies have found increased collagen in the lungs of patients with mild COPD, indicating that fibrosis can be a component of emphysema. While emphysema can exist in individuals who do not have airflow obstruction, it is more common among patients who have moderate or severe airflow obstruction
Although no cure for COPD is available as of yet, with the combination of cessation of smoking and treatments the progression of the disease can be slowed and lifestyles improved.
Asthma- The Global Initiative for Asthma gives the following definition for asthma. "Asthma is a chronic inflammatory disorder of the airways in which many cells and cellular elements play a role. The chronic inflammation is associated with airway responsiveness that leads to recurrent episodes of wheezing, breathlessness, chest tightness, and coughing, particularly at night or in the early morning. These episodes are usually associated with widespread, but variable, airflow obstruction within the lung that is often reversible either spontaneously or with treatment."
Asthma is a very treatable condition. With modern therapies, many patients are able to live a very active and symptom free lifestyle while reducing the need for health care utilization. The treatment is multi-pronged involving education, prevention and medical therapy. Early and appropriate intervention for this chronic condition can lead to significant reduction in disease burden and optimizing health.
IPF- Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), , is a chronic, relentlessly progressive fibrotic disorder of the lower respiratory tract that typically affects adults over the age of 40. There are many illness under the category of Interstitial Lung Disease
Symptoms are often progressive shortness of breath and cough and often subtle.
This requires a thorough and systematic evaluation to ascertain the cause of the lung condition and to determine properly directed treatment

Floaterframe is the only do-it-yourself frame specifically designed for wood panels. Other frames on the market often damage the wood panel, are difficult to attach, and are rarely the correct profile. After years of receiving inquiries from artists struggling with existing frames, Ampersand focused on developing the perfect solution to frame artwork created on a wood cradled panel. Floaterframes are available in depths to fit 7/8" and 1.5" cradles. The 7/8" depth models also accommodate 3/4" canvas and flat panels!
Made with premium hardwood, the quality of floaterframe is immediately evident. Every detail has been designed and engineered to give you a simple, all-in-one framing solution that protects your artwork while giving it the finished look it richly deserves.
Wider Base, Deeper Rabbet, Countersunk Holes
The expanded frame base allows you to attach the artwork in the center of the panel cradle frame. This minimizes the damage to your artwork that can occur with conventional frames.
The deeper rabbet provides the perfect depth to position the face of your artwork just below the frame edge for 7/8" and 1½" profile artwork. This protects your artwork while displaying it at its best.
Pre-drilled countersunk holes ensure that your artwork attaches easily to the frame and allows it to hang flush against the wall.
So Easy to Use!
