General FAQs
A:This initiative is built on technology transition that Cisco has driven in the networking industry.
"Unleashing the full capabilities of the new network" means that there are entirely new capabilities in the network, and this fundamentally changes "how networking is done". To fully leverage the capabilities of the new network, networking and software skills are key.
The new Cisco Certification program introduces CCNA, CCNP, and CCIE certifications that maintain the high-quality standards known to the industry yet have been streamlined based on market demands and learner preferences. The program is designed for agility, value, and leadership. It lets people choose the skills they want to develop and encourages lifelong learning.

A:We designed the new training and certification program to be customizable. For example, CCNP includes more options than ever before, with a concentration exam of your choice. And you can earn training badges for completing training and Specialist certifications for passing written, proctored exams in technologies and skills that relate directly to your job, interests, and aspirations.
A:It will depend on each learner's path. Our goal is to make it more convenient for learners to become certified and enable them to customize learning to best meet their needs. At the associate level, users will take a single, comprehensive exam. At the professional level, users will need to take a core exam and their choice of concentration exam in the same technology track. At the expert level, users will need to take a core exam the corresponding lab exam. Specialist certifications will be awarded for passing any written, proctored exam, with the exception of associate level exams.
A: At this time, the CCDE and CCAr certifications will remain as they are today.
A:As we enhance our program, our intent is to maintain and strengthen the integrity and rigor that Cisco certifications have today. At the CCNA level, we've broadened the topics within the exam to cover the range of skills required to manage digital networks. We've also embedded knowledge from across technologies into our associate level exam, making it more comprehensive than ever. At the CCNP and CCIE levels, we've increased the rigor of exams.
The new core exams will cover essential knowledge for job roles within the network domain. And by offering concentration exams that cover depth of knowledge in specific topics, we're validating your specific skills even more rigorously than in the past. Finally, CCIE exams will cover the entire network lifecycle of designing, deploying, operating and optimizing complex network scenarios.
A:We've consolidated the CCNA program into one, comprehensive exam that covers entry level networking skills across technologies, such as basic IP fundamentals, network access, IP connectivity, and basics of automation and network programmability, and security fundamental skills, because a breadth of skills is needed when first entering networking. We've refocused our
CCNP and CCIE program to align with the five principal technologies, including Enterprise, Security, Service Provider, Collaboration and Data Center. Retired programs have been consolidated into these technology tracks.
For example, we've consolidated Wireless into the Enterprise track, as wireless skills are critical in any enterprise deployment. Where subject matter fit into more than one potential track, as was the case with Automation and Programming, the subject matter became a concentration exam in multiple CCNP technology tracks. Where this is the case, the same content will be leveraged across tracks. Your current certification is still valid and will be active until it's expiration date.
A:Cisco certifications are among the most valued in the industry. All our certification exams are designed and monitored by experts. They're developed using a standardized, industry-accepted methodology, which generates valid, credible, valuable, and legally- defensible certifications.
We are also constantly validating the integrity of the exams through test site monitoring, enforcement of candidate requirements, exam security practices, data analytics and investigations tied to the security tip line.
A:We are expanding the Networking Academy to train students for the new CCNA certification and for the new DevNet Associate certification, which extends the program beyond developing networking professionals to also include developing software professionals for Cisco's partners and customers.
A:Cisco Networking Academy is happy to answer your question. Simply post your question to their Facebook page, and they'll respond: https://www.facebook.com/cisconetworkingacademy/
A:For CCNA, Specialist and CCNP: Your current certification is still valid and will be active until its expiration date. When the new program goes into effect February 24, 2020, your current certification will be transitioned to an equivalent in the new program.
For CCIE: If you are an active CCIE, your suspended year will be converted to an active year. For example, if your active CCIE would have been suspended beginning April 21, 2020, you will sustain active status until April 21, 2021.
A:We've consolidated and updated CCNA training and certification into one course, one comprehensive exam that covers entry-level networking skills across technologies, such as basic IP fundamentals, network access, IP connectivity, and basics of automation and network programmability, and security fundamental skills.
A:The CCNA certification will no longer be required as a prerequisite for professional certifications, giving learners the ability to start where they choose in their learning journey.
A:At this time, there are no changes to the CCNA CyberOps certification. Cisco continues to evaluate our training and certifications, including CCNA CyberOps, to ensure we are providing professionals with the most up-to-date skills needed to succeed in today's marketplace. Cybersecurity skills are critical and will continue to be an important area for Cisco. Please look for future updates at Cisco.com/nextlevel

A:As of February 24, 2020, certified individuals, including CCNA, Cisco Certified Specialist, CCNP and CCIE, will be able to recertify by either taking exams, earning Continuing Education credits or a mix of both. Continuing education activities include things like attending Cisco Live training sessions, authoring content, completing online training courses, completing instructor-led training courses and more.
A: To recertify as CCNA, you'll need to complete 30 continuing education credits.
To recertify as Cisco Certified Specialist, you'll need to complete 40 continuing education credits.
To recertify as CCNP, you'll need to complete 80 continuing education credits.
To recertify as CCIE, you'll need to complete 120 continuing education credits.
A:Any exam, including DevNet certification exams, that you pass will count towards recertifying your CCNA, CCNP and CCIE or Specialist certifications, beginning February 24, 2020.
A:Your current certification will be active until it's current expiration date. If your certification is retired, any time remaining in your current certification lifecycle will remain unchanged.
A:Beginning February 24, 2020, certified individuals will be required to recertify every 3 years. Candidates will be able to recertify by either taking exams, earning Continuing Education credits or a mix of both. Continuing education activities include things like attending Cisco Live training sessions, completing online training courses and more. Also, any active CCIE or CCIE Emeritus that maintains their CCIE Active or Emeritus status for 20 consecutive years will have the option to become a CCIE Lifetime Emeritus and will not have to pay additional Emeritus renewal fees.
A:As of February 24, 2020, the continuing education administrative fee will be retired. Candidates will no longer be required to pay the administrative fee.
A:Your certification status will be active for three years from when you earn your certification. Each time you complete recertification requirements, your certification status will be extended for an additional three years from the date you recertify. This marks a change for CCIE certified individuals, as previously CCIE certification was active for 2 years, and each recertification event extended certification status for an additional two years from the original certification date. For reference, here's an example of how the new recertification cycle will work:
A:In the past, the CCIE recertification cycle was a two-year cycle. Now, the CCIE recertification cycle is three years. Due to this increase in the recertification cycle, we correspondingly increased the number of continuing education credits required for recertification to maintain the rigor of the program and ensure skills are continually refreshed.
A: The new recertification policy will go into effect beginning February 24, 2020.
A:The CCIE suspended status will be retired as of February 24, 2020. If you're in a suspended status as of February 24, 2020, your certification will be considered active for the remainder of the suspended term. To remain active beyond the suspended term, CCIEs must meet new recertification requirements. For example, if your suspended status ends in April 10, 2020, your CCIE will become active February 24, 2020 and will expire April 10, 2020 unless new recertification requirements are met.
A: Details will be forthcoming for these new certifications when they are available February 24, 2020.

Over a year ago, after I graduated from art school, I needed a side job asap. So I winded up working as a security guard in a data centre. Here, I was not only a couple of night shifts away from insanity, but I also realized the huge potential of a data center as a context for sculptural infiltrations and the photo series HARDWARE GARDEN sprouted. Fabienne Rachmadiev wrote a fabulous piece on fictional ecologies inspired by the work for De Internet Gids (DIG), read it in Dutch here.

|Inquest Opens into Mystery Death of Hammersmith Businessman
Charles Raper, co-founder of Blue Hackle, died ten years ago while on holiday
An inquest has opened into the death of Charles Raper, the co-founder of a Hammersmith based security firm and resident of Chiswick, over ten years after he died in mysterious circumstances.
Mr Raper, who was 34 when he died, co-founded the company Blue Hackle, which was based in Lincoln House at 137 - 143 Hammersmith Road, with his brother Michael in 2004.
A year later, he went on a golfing holiday to Vilamoura in the Algarve with 17 of his friends.
At the Coroner's Court in Woking, Surrey on Monday October 12, the inquest into his death, which is expected to last ten days learned that Mr Raper was holidaying with rugby and Oxford University friends who had taken part in drinking games.
It remains unclear whether Mr Raper was run over by a vehicle, stabbed, fell off a wall or was involved in a fight. He was taken to hospital suffering from serious injuries but died after an operation to remove his spleen.
One of Mr Raper's closest friends, David Currie, a former Harlequins rugby star told the inquest that the group was "a boisterous bunch" who had known each other since university or through rugby and that there were some big drinkers there.
He told the inquest how, after finding his friend lying in a car park, he called Mr Raper's firm Blue Hackle in London to ask about insurance details.
"I told them he could have fallen from a wall, been stabbed or hit by a car," he said, adding that a member of the medical staff had said he had been stabbed.
The inquest continues, with many of Mr Raper's friends scheduled to give evidence.
Mr Raper went to Oxford University's Keble College, which published this obituary in 2006:
Charles Raper, born 1989, died on 17 September 2005 aged 34. Educated at Harrow, he came
A keen sportsman and mountaineer, tragically, he was knocked down while on a golfing weekend in Portugal and died as a result of his injuries. His death is still under police investigation. His mother writes: " Charlie loved his time at Keble and counts many of the friends he
Blue Hackle, which has the motto "Securing Lives. Protecting Assets. Reducing Risk." says on its website that after being founded in 2004 as a British company, it transitioned to a wholly-owned American company in 2011. With headquarters in Laurel Springs, NJ, and major operations in the Middle East, Southwest Asia, and Africa, we provide the most capable, reliable, and discreet security services across Energy, Government, Foreign Government, Commercial, Diplomatic, and Non-Profit sectors.
Charles Raper's brother Michael, described as former CEO and founding member, remains on the company's Board of Directors.

Q&A: My Newham - Laila McNeily, an advisor for the 150Club which helps people at risk of diabetes, discusses how to make Newham healthier
PUBLISHED: 17:00 21 September 2018
Health advisor Laila McNeily discusses fast food, getting active and cleaning up the streets as she talks to Awil Mohamoud about her passion for the borough
Laila McNeilly works for the 150Club, a programme aimed at preventing and reducing the risk of Type 2 diabetes and cardio vascular disease for Newham's residents. The 24-week course offers physical activities to help local people take control of their own health. It takes its name from the 150 minutes of exercise people should take each week.
What's your connection with the borough?
I have lived and worked in the borough for more than 20 years as an exercise instructor for Newham Council, Active Newham, Swing Patrol and as a nutritionist and healthy lifestyle coach for various events. More recently I've been working as coordinator and lifestyle advisor for the 150Club programme for West Ham United Foundation.
What's the best thing about working or living in the borough?
Knowing the area means I can confidently signpost people to appropriate activities and venues, and it makes networking and developing links with other colleagues and organisations easier.
What one thing would you change?
Cleaner streets would be nice and I would impose fines for dog fouling.
Use three words to describe the area.
Diverse, vibrant and bustling.
Who is the most inspiring person you have ever met?
It's hard to choose one. Work colleagues, who tirelessly work to promote health improvement in the borough, sometimes with limited resources. Most of the clients I work with have inspired me by changing their lifestyles and spreading healthy messages to their families and friends.
What new law would you introduce if you were the prime minister?
That's a tricky one. I would say a law to limit the number of fast-food shops. No area needs five or more unhealthy food establishments on one street.
If you were the editor of this paper, what issues in the borough would you focus on?
I would focus on some of the issues that West Ham United Foundation are working on to address problems around health and wellbeing, tackling exclusion and poverty and advancing education and employability.

Mid and East Antrim Borough Council has reiterated its commitment to tackling climate change by adopting a multi-agency, cross-governmental approach to the issue.
Elected members were briefed about a major Climate Change Conference, which will hear from some of the world's most noted experts on sustainability, taking place this week.
The event, which will allow councils and communities from across the UK and Ireland to share best practice, is being hosted by Newry, Mourne and Down District Council.
Among the keynote speakers are Jan Gustav Strandenaes, Senior Advisor to the UN on Sustainable Development Policy, and Professor John Barry from Queen's University in Belfast.
Council recently worked with the Northern Ireland Local Government Association (NILGA) on its Draft Response to DAERA's Discussion Paper into a future Environment Strategy.
An All-Party Working Group on Climate Change, meanwhile, is due to meet this month to explore how Council can mitigate the climate change crisis and protect its citizens from the existing and future effects of climate breakdown.
In December 2019, Council launched the MEA4Trees initiative in partnership with the Woodland Trust, and committed to planting 58,000 native trees, which equates to one for every household in the borough, over the next five years.
Council's Our Environment Delivery Group, meanwhile, continue to lead the way through initiatives including the Eco Community Programme, which promotes sustainable projects and behaviour at community level, and the Environmental Champion programme, among those proving successful.

Google's new Nest Hub Max is a smart display unit that comes equipped with a 6.5-megapixel facial recognition camera that identifies you and monitors all your actions – inside your own home.
And the Orwellian icing on the cake is that it is not equipped with a physical shutter to forcibly prevent it from monitoring what's happening in your home.
Clearly, there are real reasons to be concerned about Google's latest tech offering, and those who wish to protect their online privacy might do better to steer well clear of it.
If you are thinking, "What could possibly go wrong here, if the person subscribing to this service, once it is implemented, decides to use it aggressively?!? I mean, isn't this what the technology was created to [email protected]?"
Well, not so fast, my friends; because if it has its way, the Unhinged Surveilled Government of Amerika, will find reasons which will compel all of its citizens, and residents, to have such a device surveilling them, and all those in their offices and conference rooms, every single one of its netizens, 24/7.
There will be fines, prison sentences, or worse, to ensure compliance.
In fact, I can hear that first infomercial for this product, ringing in my ears, and assaulting my visual cortex right now, as the "hero concept".
This message is "Comply... or Die!!!""
This will be presented as the extremely horrific life, and ultimate, grisly death of a non-complier, (or, as an NC, as they are known, with no name, and just a code number tattooed on their backs) awash with graphicly lascivious images which leave utterly nothing to the imagination.
"Forced Compliance" is not a new concept for either Google, or this Government.
And if the US government embraces this technology as quickly, and robustly as is potentially possible, that very potential for massive abuse from this technology alone, should scare the very stuffing out of you.
For those of you with kids and skills, please get the hell out of this country, just as soon as you are able; the once-vaunted "American Dream", has well and truly morphed into "The American Nightmare.", and the chances for that nightmare's reversal, appear to be slim to none, at this point in America's Narrative.
Until such a device is mandated by this government, I refuse to have one installed.

Last October Oval went to Sicily for our yearly retreat. One month later, Sicily came to us in the form of Alessio! A year on, and he is still our point of contact with the island, working remotely from his home there in the sun!
In order to feel like he was with them all the time, his squad decided to buy a tablet and a tripod to be connected to him throughout the working day. Of course, they added their special Oval touch and bought a long black wig to adorn it with, to make it look just like Alessio! A funny sight and a plus for remote employee engagement!
One year of Alessio, in numbers:
☎ 500+ calls with the team
🤓 48,570+ lines of code added to the Oval app
🎸 1 (Tool FTW) once in a lifetime concerts seen
😂 -1 willingness to appear in this blogpost
1. What was your idea of Oval before you started?
I was already a user of the app and I liked that a small company like Oval had created such a beautiful product! This was one of the reasons I couldn't wait to join the Oval team.
2. After a year working with us, would you say it was everything you expected it to be?
Not exactly ... but if everything had worked out as expected, I would have missed part of the fun! Not to mention, the group of friends I was lucky to find here!
3. Given you had the chance again would you take the opportunity to work with Oval?
100%! Being part of a company like Oval doesn't happen often.
4. What did you do before you started with Oval?
I was an interface developer for a large e-commerce company ... nothing comparable in terms of engagement
5. What is your favourite thing to do outside of work?
Karts were my passion, but I had to stop. Now I'd say gaming, guitar and a bit of healthy gardening
6. What is your favourite drink to order at the bar?
I'm very fond of beer, especially if it's blonde and Belgian!
7. What is the one thing you couldn't live without?
Water 😁
Editor's note: Not beer?!?
8. What's your biggest fear?
Arachnophobia ... This beast is a wild beast! 😂
9. What's your biggest weakness?
Laziness, a bit like Snorlax 😴
10. What did you want to be growing up?
Even then I knew what I didn't want to be: an Italian politician 👔
11. If you could go on holiday anywhere in the world where would it be?
I would like to take a trip to a place on the edge of modern society, perhaps in Nepal, Tibet or neighbouring countries.
12. What's your favourite quote/line from a movie?
"I am the one who knocks"! I hope you all know where it comes from!

Tyler Davis, Flight/EMS Operations Specialist
In 2015, Dan Garman, former SVP of pre-hospital and Emergency Department services, had a vision. It started with a simple request for new radio equipment. Over time, that initial inquiry led to the discovery that Parkview Health and area patients could benefit greatly from a more effective communication system for area hospitals, dispatchers, bed management and phone operators.
Dan wanted to identify a way to integrate all of the radios used by the aforementioned teams together, so that if a disaster were to occur, each hospital could still communicate with one another without telephones. Garman's dream – which snowballed into an all-inclusive emergency communications space – became a reality, but first it needed a secure, safe location.
The Logistics Center had to be located in a space where critical functions could take place and the structure would be hard to break apart, or in other words, virtually indestructible. Parkview Hospital Randallia was the final choice. Randallia had several features, such as city water, multiple power sources, generators and a concrete basement.
Today, all of the staff at the Logistics Center interact with people via phone, but also with each other, making the process of transferring patients to area hospitals much more effective. Dan has since retired, but his vision is carried out today by a dedicated team, including Drew Hoskins, manager, EMS and Flight Communications, who walks us through the departments housed in the Logistics Center and the roles they play in the patient journey.
Any call that comes in from the public to the main hospital lines at all Parkview hospitals, comes here. The voice services department consist of 25 phone operators who are responsible for handling a variety of calls. They are available 24/7 to assist with any question someone may ask.
Below are some of their responsibilities:
Amount of calls:
Left to right, Catherine Mackin, Bed Teletrack and Decentral Coordinator & Janci Springer, RN, Admission Facilitator
The bed management team, comprised of between 4-5 staff members, oversees every bed in the Parkview healthcare system. This includes Parkview Hospital Randallia, Parkview Regional Medical Center, Parkview Wabash Hospital, Parkview Noble Hospital, Parkview Whitley Hospital, Parkview Warsaw Hospital, Parkview Huntington Hospital and Parkview LaGrange Hospital. In total, they manage 543 beds.
At least one registered nurse in on hand 24/7 in the Logistics Center to work with doctors in the hospitals to determine the care the patient needs and where to send them to receive the necessary treatment.
When there is a wait list for beds, the bed management team must prioritize patients based on their current health status. The more serious the patient, the higher up they go on the list.
The status of each bed is updated in real-time on monitors displayed at the Logistics Center 24/7. If a nurse updates a bed status in the system at the hospital they are working in, it only takes seconds for it to update at the Logistics Center.
Bed management can see/monitor:
Calls from patients experiencing a mental health crisis who call the Parkview Behavioral Health HelpLine come first to the Logistics Center. They receive between 100-150 calls daily, Monday through Friday. There are 2-3 phone operators working at all times. Almost all staff members are registered nurses or have a master's degree. Each staff member has extensive knowledge handling behavioral health crises and helping patients connect with community resources available to them.
Parkview has its own police force and a group of non-sworn public safety officers. When someone calls for public safety assistance, they call dispatchers in the Logistics Center. The dispatcher will then send police or public safety officers to the location at the hospital where they are needed. If a helicopter is requested, officers are asked to secure a helipad location. To secure a location, officers will block traffic to ensure a safe landing. They will also turn on the lights at helipad locations, such as the roof at Parkview Regional Medical Center.
Right to left – Steve Combs, Rick Yenser, Tyler Davis. All Flight/EMS Operations Specialists
Often times, a 911 operator will transfer callers with medical emergencies to the Parkview EMS/Flight Operations Specialists. They are all trained EMS paramedics who can go through a series of questions with the caller to help provide care even before an ambulance arrives. They receive, on average, around 100 calls a day that require an ambulance and 3-4 that require a helicopter.
"It takes a very mentally strong person to do this job," Drew said. "All of our staff are paramedics and they have been on the street and they know what certain health situations look like."
One example of this resiliency would be the flight crew. "The initial call to a helicopter pilot is to say the location of the scene and what hospital we need the helicopter to land. That is it," Drew explained. "The pilot doesn't know if it's a trauma accident or if it involves a child or an adult. We leave out these details to first make sure the flight is possible. If a pilot knows the details first, that might affect their flight judgment. Our first priority is safety for both the pilot and the patient."
If a Parkview helicopter is unable to make the flight due to weather conditions or availability, the Logistics Center EMS/Flight Operations Specialists will work with other medical helicopters. "It doesn't have to a be a Parkview ambulance or helicopter. We will get you the care you need because the patient's needs come first."
One man's vision for a collaborative communications hub is now a fully functional nerve center, supporting efficient, exceptional patient care. The Parkview Logistics Center is a crucial component to our healthcare system because, while the quick decision-making skills of the teams housed within its walls only take moments, those moments are certainly saving lives and improving outcomes each and every day.
Celebrating the men and women who keep our facilities safe and clean.
Our volunteers found a creative way to connect with local seniors.

New Yorkers are used to having big shots in their midst. They relish those moments when the pope comes to town, when the UN General Assembly meets or when movies are filmed on their streets. Indeed, they're built into New York City's budget and lifestyle.
But now the region has to deal with something very different: a president-elect and his family residing in its epicenter. It's already getting expensive, costing $473,000 a day.
And New York City shouldn't have to foot the bill. Mayor Bill de Blasio is asking federal officials to pony up. It should be a given that the federal government pays for security for the president-elect, no matter where he is or how tony the digs. But the city isn't eligible for automatic federal reimbursement for such expenses, which is limited to smaller towns and cities. So, Congress has to appropriate funds, as it did for events like the 2004 Republican National Convention.
This is an unprecedented situation. With a president-elect who resides in a high-profile building in a high-traffic area in the middle of Manhattan, the city has had to institute 24-hour security, add officers to manage traffic on streets and sidewalks, and protect the motorcade. It's a staggering undertaking, one that has upended midtown during the busy holiday season. And it could extend long past Inauguration Day, as Melania Trump plans to stay with son Barron through the school year, and Donald Trump might spend weekends in the city.
The presence of a president-elect has altered life for New Yorkers, from those trying to get to work to others hoping to sell Trump Tower apartments. Ever wily real estate agents are even describing the extra federal security as an amenity for tower condos on the market.
The price tag is huge: $35 million for the 73 days between Election Day and Inauguration Day. Congress is expected to vote on a temporary spending bill this week. Funds for Trump's security have to be in it.
Federal officials should appropriate money for the transition, and fund all ongoing costs once Trump takes office. The New York Police Department will do its job. But New York City shouldn't have to pay for it. Its funds should go to the needs of all city residents, not just one.

My Daily Routine · 16 March 2013
I am not sure why the subject comes up, but people seem to ask why I get up so early every morning. The short answer is because I need to spend time with God. The long answer is because I have a daily routine that I need to follow.
Sometimes people ask the question because they wonder when I have time to write. Other times it just comes up in conversation. Regardless of how the subject comes up, I usually give people the short answer and let them know I get up to spend time with God and to write.
Sometimes, I actually tell them my whole routine.
My weekday morning routine starts out with some simple exercises. I do push ups and pull ups on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. I do some sort of leg lifts (usually flutter kicks) and one-legged squats on Tuesday and Thursday. Sometimes I put in a little variety to change my core workout, but regardless of what exercises I do, it is usually just a five minute routine.
After that, I take a shower and get dressed.
The important part comes next when I feed my heart, mind, and body. I read my Bible and pray. I eat. Then, I write, edit, and post. Together, these things fill me and prepare me for the day ahead. They get me started off right.
Lastly, I brush my teeth and head off for work.
It is a simple routine that I have had, minus the writing, for years. Which is why it does not feel right if I miss any of the steps.
When they ask, I still like to give people the short answer that I need to spend time with God. But now, I can point them to my blog when people ask why I get up so early in the morning.

After headlining shows across the UK, and a performance at Australia's Tamworth Country music festival in 2019, UK singer-songwriter Izzie Walsh is set for a bright 2020. She has kick-started the year with the release of a new live video for 'Alone', performed in Toronto's artistic neighbourhood of Parkdale.
Izzie says: "This was my second time performing in Toronto, and the first without my band. It's such a huge, diverse and creative city, but wandering it alone was a completely new experience. It really added a different dimension to the song Alone, which explores the depths of solitude and escapism."
Izzie adds, "Alone is a song in which I try to connect to feelings people have had for centuries, but explore them in a modern context. People are still trapped in the usual day to day cycle, wanting to break free and spend more time with each other" the musician encapsulates this sentiment in the video, with the harrowing lyric, "I ain't no bathroom singer and you ain't no fridge freezer salesman and I'm not singing all these nights alone."
Izzie will be performing on 28th January at London's Night Tales, as part of AmericanaFest UK, London. Keep your eyes peeled for further UK dates, to be released soon.

SAN DIEGO, Aug. 8, 2018 /PRNewswire/ — Heron Therapeutics, Inc. (Nasdaq: HRTX), a commercial-stage biotechnology company focused on improving the lives of patients by developing best-in-class treatments to address some of the most important unmet patient needs, today reported financial results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 and highlighted recent corporate progress.
Recent Corporate Progress
Pain Management Franchise
Positive Topline Results from Phase 2b Clinical Studies of HTX-011 in Total Knee Arthroplasty and Breast Augmentation. HTX-011 achieved all primary endpoints in two completed Phase 2b studies: Study 209 (local administration in total knee arthroplasty) and Study 211 (instillation or pectoral pocket nerve block in breast augmentation). In both of these studies:
HTX-011 demonstrated statistically significant reductions in both pain intensity and opioid use;
HTX-011 demonstrated a strong correlation between pain reduction and pharmacokinetics; and
HTX-011 was well tolerated.
Breakthrough Therapy Designation Granted for HTX-011. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has granted Breakthrough Therapy designation for HTX-011 for local administration into the surgical site. Breakthrough Therapy designation is designed to expedite the development and review of drugs that are intended to treat serious conditions and for which preliminary clinical evidence indicates substantial improvement over available therapies on clinically significant endpoint(s). Breakthrough Therapy designation was granted for HTX-011 based on the results of completed Phase 2 studies and two recently completed Phase 3 studies, which showed that HTX-011 produced significant reductions in both pain intensity and the need for opioids through 72 hours post-surgery compared to placebo and bupivacaine solution, the standard of care.
In the second half of 2018, Heron expects to submit a New Drug Application (NDA) to the FDA for HTX-011.
CINV Franchise
CINV Sales. Chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting (CINV) franchise net product sales for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 were $17.3 million and $28.8 million, respectively. Heron reaffirms full-year 2018 CINV franchise net product sales guidance of $60 million to $70 million, and Heron believes net product sales will be in the upper end of this range.
SUSTOL® Sales. Net product sales of SUSTOL (granisetron) extended-release injection for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 were $6.1 million and $12.4 million, respectively. The entry of generic palonosetron in the first quarter of 2018 has had, and is expected to have, a several-quarter negative impact on provider demand for SUSTOL.
CINVANTI® Sales. Net product sales of CINVANTI (aprepitant) injectable emulsion for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 were $11.2 million and $16.4 million, respectively. CINVANTI was approved by the FDA on November 9, 2017 and became commercially available in the U.S. on January 4, 2018.
"We are pleased with the progress we have made in the first half of 2018. In our pain management franchise, the results of completed Phase 2 and Phase 3 studies and the Breakthrough Therapy designation by the FDA of HTX-011 further confirm our belief in the superiority of HTX-011 over the standard of care in reducing pain intensity and opioid use across multiple diverse surgical models. In our CINV franchise, providers are continuing to realize the value of CINVANTI over other injectable NK1 receptor antagonists, and the number of oncology clinics ordering CINVANTI has increased," said Barry D. Quart, Pharm.D., Chief Executive Officer of Heron Therapeutics. "We look forward to submitting an NDA for HTX-011 to the FDA in the second half of this year and achieving full-year CINV net product sales in the upper end of our $60 million to $70 million guidance."
Financial Results
Net product sales for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 were $17.3 million and $28.8 million, respectively, compared to $8.5 million and $12.1 million for the same periods in 2017, respectively.
Heron's net loss for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 was $38.7 million and $90.9 million, or $0.54 per share and $1.33 per share, respectively, compared to $42.8 million and $93.1 million, or $0.80 per share and $1.79 per share, for the same periods in 2017, respectively. Net loss for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, included non-cash, stock-based compensation expense of $7.8 million and $15.5 million, respectively, compared to $8.2 million and $16.2 million, for the same periods in 2017, respectively.
As of June 30, 2018, Heron had cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments of $423.0 million, compared to $172.4 million as of December 31, 2017. Net cash used for operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2018 was $122.4 million, compared to $82.6 million for the same period in 2017.
About HTX-011 for Postoperative Pain
HTX-011, which utilizes Heron's proprietary Biochronomer® drug delivery technology, is an investigational, long-acting, extended-release formulation of the local anesthetic bupivacaine in a fixed-dose combination with the anti-inflammatory meloxicam for the management of postoperative pain. By delivering sustained levels of both a potent anesthetic and a local anti-inflammatory agent directly to the site of tissue injury, HTX-011 was designed to deliver superior pain relief while reducing the need for systemically administered pain medications such as opioids, which carry the risk of harmful side effects, abuse and addiction. HTX-011 has been shown to reduce pain significantly better than placebo or bupivacaine alone in five diverse surgical models: hernia repair, abdominoplasty, bunionectomy, total knee arthroplasty and breast augmentation. HTX-011 was granted Fast Track designation from FDA in the fourth quarter of 2017 and Breakthrough Therapy designation in the second quarter of 2018. In the second half of 2018, Heron expects to submit a New Drug Application (NDA) to the FDA for HTX-011.
About CINVANTI (aprepitant) injectable emulsion
CINVANTI, in combination with other antiemetic agents, is indicated in adults for the prevention of acute and delayed nausea and vomiting associated with initial and repeat courses of highly emetogenic cancer chemotherapy (HEC) including high-dose cisplatin and nausea and vomiting associated with initial and repeat courses of moderately emetogenic cancer chemotherapy (MEC). CINVANTI is an intravenous formulation of aprepitant, a substance P/neurokinin-1 (NK1) receptor antagonist. CINVANTI is the first intravenous (IV) formulation to directly deliver aprepitant, the active ingredient in EMEND® capsules. Aprepitant (including its prodrug, fosaprepitant) is the only single-agent NK1 receptor antagonist to significantly reduce nausea and vomiting in both the acute phase (0 – 24 hours after chemotherapy) and the delayed phase (24 – 120 hours after chemotherapy). CINVANTI is the only IV formulation of an NK1 receptor antagonist indicated for the prevention of acute and delayed nausea and vomiting associated with HEC and nausea and vomiting associated with MEC that is free of polysorbate 80 or any other synthetic surfactant. Pharmaceutical formulations containing polysorbate 80 have been linked to hypersensitivity reactions, including anaphylaxis and irritation of blood vessels resulting in infusion-site pain. FDA-approved dosing administration included in the United States prescribing information for CINVANTI is a 30-minute infusion.

About SUSTOL (granisetron) extended-release injection
SUSTOL is indicated in combination with other antiemetics in adults for the prevention of acute and delayed nausea and vomiting associated with initial and repeat courses of moderately emetogenic chemotherapy (MEC) or anthracycline and cyclophosphamide (AC) combination chemotherapy regimens. SUSTOL is an extended-release, injectable 5-HT3 receptor antagonist that utilizes Heron's Biochronomer® drug delivery technology to maintain therapeutic levels of granisetron for ≥5 days. The SUSTOL global Phase 3 development program was comprised of two, large, guideline-based clinical studies that evaluated SUSTOL's efficacy and safety in more than 2,000 patients with cancer. SUSTOL's efficacy in preventing nausea and vomiting was evaluated in both the acute phase (0 – 24 hours after chemotherapy) and delayed phase (24 – 120 hours after chemotherapy).

Key Points
IL-37 is expressed in alveolar epithelial cells and macrophages.
IL-37 levels are decreased in lung and blood obtained from IPF patients.
IL-37 attenuates lung fibrosis by inducing autophagy and inhibiting TGF-β1 signaling.
Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a progressive and destructive lung disease with a poor prognosis resulting in a high mortality rate. IL-37 is an anti-inflammatory cytokine that inhibits innate and adaptive immunity by downregulating proinflammatory mediators and pathways. However, the exact role of IL-37 in lung fibrosis is unclear. In this study, we found that the IL-37 protein was expressed in alveolar epithelial cells (AECs) and alveolar macrophages in healthy controls but significantly reduced in patients with IPF. IL-37 significantly inhibited oxidative stress–induced primary mouse AEC death in a dose-dependent manner, and knockdown of IL-37 significantly potentiated human lung cancer–derived AEC (A549 cells) death. IL-37 attenuated constitutive mRNA and protein expression of fibronectin and collagen I in primary human lung fibroblasts. IL-37 inhibited TGF-β1–induced lung fibroblast proliferation and downregulated the TGF-β1 signaling pathway. Moreover, IL-37 enhanced beclin-1–dependent autophagy and autophagy modulators in IPF fibroblasts. IL-37 significantly decreased inflammation and collagen deposition in bleomycin-exposed mouse lungs, which was reversed by treatment with the autophagy inhibitor 3-methyladenine. Our findings suggested that a decrease in IL-37 may be involved in the progression of IPF and that IL-37 inhibited TGF-β1 signaling and enhancement of autophagy in IPF fibroblasts. Given its antifibrotic activity, IL-37 could be a therapeutic target in fibrotic lung diseases, including IPF.

I Introduction
Mobility triangle research investigates the spatial proximity of the offender's residence, the victim's residence, and the crime location, assuming that the residences of the offender and victim are the starting points of their journey to crime and victimization, respectively. As reviewed below, the mobility triangle research categorizes crime triangles based on their relative localities: all are in the same neighbourhood, all are in different neighbourhoods, and so on.
The mobility triangle literature has largely ignored the mobility patterns of co-offenders and co-victims, despite its importance in understanding the aetiology of crime. For nearly a century, since Breckenridge and Abbott (1912) noted the frequency of young offenders offending together, co-offending has been acknowledged as an important aspect in the aetiology of crime. Early studies of co-offending found that co-offending is substantial for youth offending: Shaw and McKay (1931) found almost 82% of youth offending was co-offending in Chicago, Illinois; Gold (1970) found 75% in Flint, Michigan; and in a review of 11 studies, Erickson (1971) found that 85% of offences involved co-offending, Though some recent research has questioned the extent of co-offending (Carrington 2002; Stolzenberg and D'Alessio 2008), there is still substantial evidence that offending, particularly youth offending, is a group (co-offending) phenomenon. Moreover, some scholars have found that, even though co-offenders make similar criminal decisions for target selection as do solo-offenders (Bernasco 2006), co-offenders commit criminal offences more frequently and commit more serious offences (Hindelang 1976; Sarnecki 2001), "early starters" that co-offend commit more crimes later (McCord and Conway 2002), and exposure to violent crimes through co-offending leads to more violent crimes later in a criminal career (Conway and McCord 2002). Lastly, Felson (2003) argues that co-offending causes more harm to youth, ethnic minorities, and cities. Needless to say, there is substantial evidence for the incorporation of co-offending into any criminological analysis.
In this paper, we investigate the impact of increasing the number of offenders/victims on the area covered by different crime classifications. Mobility triangles, by definition, involve only one offender and one victim, so we extend mobility triangle research to examine the mobility polygon. Our primary research question is as follows: what is the relationship between the area covered by crime and the number of offenders/victims, by crime classification? The mobility triangle research uses categories to classify the triangle. To identify the nuances in the area covered for a crime, these traditional categories are too crude. Consequently, rather than the traditional categories used to describe mobility triangles, we calculate the mobility area.
2 The geometry of offending and victimization
Mobility triangles are a geometrical representation of the relations between the offender's residence, the victim's residence, and the location of the criminal incident, each of which is a vertex of the triangle. First developed by Burgess (1925), mobility triangles provide a typology for describing the geometry of crime. Burgess (1925) describes three types of mobility triangles: (2) delinquency (neighbourhood) triangles (offenders' residence, victim's residence, and crime location all in the same neighbourhood/community), (offense) mobility triangles (offender's and victim's residence in the same neighbourhood, but the crime location is elsewhere), and promiscuity (total mobility) triangles (all points are in different neighbourhoods). Once classified, offender-victim movement patterns can be mapped and compared across different social groups, gender, and crime classifications.
The first known research to apply Burgess's (1925) mobility triangle typology to crime was Lind's (1930) analysis of crime in Honolulu. Lind's (1930) focus, however, did not include the location of the victim's residence. Rather, Lind (1930) was concerned with the residences of offenders, with regard to mobility triangles. Lind (1930) found that the delinquency triangle most often occurred within low socio-economic status neighbourhoods and that the mobility of offenders increased with age (delinquency [right arrow] mobility [right arrow] promiscuity triangles).
Normandeau (1968), studying various forms of robbery, introduced the victim into mobility triangle research but only considered solo-offenders. Perhaps more significantly, Normandeau (1968) expanded the typology of mobility triangles to five classifications. With this new typology, much more insight into the geometry of crime may be extracted: the offender and the victim reside in the same neighbourhood 26% of the time, the offender's residence and the crime location are in the same neighbourhood 33% of the time, and the victim's residence and the crime location are in the same neighbourhood 32% of the time. Therefore, there is a strong geographical bias in the commission of crime, whether that bias is finding targets close to the offender's home, or finding targets close to the victim's home.
Investigating rape in Philadelphia, Amir (1971) found that, most often (68% of the time), the crime neighbourhood triangle was present; in 82% of all cases, the offender and victim had residences in the same neighbourhood. Moreover, when comparing robbery and rape, it is clear that these two different crime classifications have very different dominating mobility-triangle types.
Rand (1986) extends the previous literature on mobility triangles through an analysis of nine different crime classifications: total crime, homicide, rape, robbery, aggravated assault, burglary, larceny, vehicle theft, and simple assault. She finds that 31% of offenders find their targets in their home neighbourhood (census tract); however, there is a substantial range depending on the crime classification: the percentage is as low as 15% (larceny) and as high as 53% (homicide and rape). Overall, the total mobility triangle is the most common (45%), and the offence mobility triangle is the least common (5%). Furthermore, property crimes tend to be total mobility triangle and violent crimes tend to be neighbourhood triangles. Rand's (1986) results confirm the importance of analysing detailed crime classifications similar to the work of Amir (1971) and of Normandeau (1968).
Tita and Griffiths (2005) analysed mobility triangles for homicide. In their research, they employed a 5-classification typology that is the same as that of Normandeau (1968) but uses different naming conventions. They found that homicides tend to be either total mobility triangles (28%) or crime neighbourhood triangles (27%). Their primary contribution to this literature is...
