Cholesterol - Do you have the full story?
Although we live in a day where so much more is known about health and research, medicine statistics show that 50 percent of patients continue to have cardiovascular disease or heart attacks. We know the risks can be from high blood pressure, diabetes, high cholesterol, smoking and obesity but there seems to be a gap in true knowledge, treatment and prevention of heart disease. Today I am going to focus on cholesterol.
Many people are happy when the cholesterol levels come up normal and blood pressure is normal but particularly if there is a genetic tendency these levels need to be looked at in more detail. The aim is to keep it as healthy cholesterol to prevent it becomes a problem. Is all cholesterol bad and perhaps good cholesterol infact looks after the cardivascular system and the brain.
The problems of what we know as bad cholesterol start with functional abnormalities that lead to structural abnormalities, that then can lead to preclinical or clinical cardiovascular disease. I hope in the future that the problems are picked up at a functional level so the structural changes can be prevented.
At the moment the standard way to look at cholesterol or dyslipidemia is to check Total Chol, Triglererides, LDL and HDL and then high prescribe medication. With what we know of the cause of cardivascular disease being genetic, oxiditive stress, inflammation and immune vascular disease then the basic cholesterol testing is not giving us the full picture of the persons condition. The standard viewpoint is that having high cholesterol is bad and low cholesterol is good and the approach is to lower cholesterol at all costs and typically with statin medications. HDL is referred to as the good cholesterol and yet some HDL's are infact not good or disfunctional. On the flip side LDL are demonised to be 'bad cholesterol' yet some LDL's are anti-atherogenic. Perhaps it is time to re evaluate how cholesterol managment is approached.
Aside from the Total Cholesterol, Triglycerides, HDL, LDL, Ratio of HDL:LDL it is also worth looking at:
TRIGLERCIDE/HDL Ratio
This can predict the particle size of the LDL's. The ideal ratio is 2:1. If this ratio is below 3:8 then there then the likelihood is that the LDL particle would be larger. This is a better outcome. However if the ratio is high then the LDL is the unsafe smaller size. some say this could be also a predictor of insulin resistance. Things that can help this is avoiding alcohol increasing omega 3 and exercise. Lower carb eating can also help.
LDL Subfractions
This test separates the large LDL (LDL1 and LDL2) particles (safer ones) from the small LDL ( LDL 3-7) particles (more atherogenic). The issue is the smaller ones are small enough to interfer with the lining of the arterial wall. Currently in Australia we can check the size but not the amount of particles.
VLDL stands for Very Low Density Lipoprotein cholesterol and it is producted in the liver and released into the blood stream to supply body tissues with triglicerides. VLDL are often seen as an estimation of a percentage of the total triglycerides. High VLDL are linked with development of plaque which narrow the passages and restrict blood flow to our organs including heart and brain.
IDL subfractions
IDL is very similar to LDL and transports Triglycerides fats and cholesterol and can also promote arteroma. It stands for independent density lipoprotein.
The disfuntional HDL at this point cannot be tested in Australia but it will not be long I am sure.
High homocysteine levels can be indicative of a potential cardiovascular disease (CVD). It is a naturally occuring amino acid produced as part of the methylation process.There has been a connection between high homocysteine and heart disease and alzheimers. Keeping homocysteine low (I like to see it below 7)
enough is helped with specifically B12, methyfolate and Vitamin B6. If the body is more toxic (coffee, alcohol, cigarettes, some medications) and the liver is working harder, then this can push the homocysteine levels higher.
C- Reactive Protein is a marker for inflammation and inflammation can be the aetiology behind cholesterol amoungst other disorders. Therefor, the level of CRP increases if there is any inflammation in the body.
Blood Sugar Levels
Insulin, Fasting Glucose and Hba1c are ways we check for diabetic tendencies which can influence the cholesterol. It is good to rule this out when treating cholesterol.
Statins - examples: Lipitor, Crestor, Pravachol, Zocor, Lipidil, Ezetrol, Vytorin
Stain drugs are very effective at lowering total cholesterol. However they have been linked to muscle pain. digestive problems, liver damage, blood sugar issues and mental fuzziness. Statins block a substance your liver needs to make cholesterol. This causes your liver to remove cholesterol from your blood. If you have concerns about taking statins please seek medical advice before you choose to reduce or stop any orthodox medicine.
Please discuss with your practitioner before self prescribing these medicines.
Red Rice Yeast
Red yeast rice is classified as a medicinal food. It is made from a particular yeast called Monascus purpureus over rice. In Chinese medicine it is used for lowering cholesterol, improving blood circulation and improving digestion. Being a food Red Rice Yeast does not seem to have the side effects of statins. Red Rice Yeast has been found to contain an active ingredient called monacolin K which is very similar to a particular statin drug called Mevacor. If your cholesterol level is really high (above 7.5) or you get too many side effects of statin drugs despite its benefits then this could be beneficial for you. When assessed we regularly make sure of tolerance and often swap you over to other remedies to get the best overall effect.
Bergamot is part of the citrus family. It inhibits the HMG- Co A enzyme which helps to reduce LDL cholesterol in the blood stream. This fruit also enhances excretion of cholesterol. It is high in antioxidants which is good for the endothelial lining of the blood vessels. Where blood sugar levels are an issue and maybe a contributing factor for cholesterol Bergamot has showed to be useful especially when used with other natural remedies like lipoic acid and grapeseed extract. This product improves the DHL and LDL ratios and helps improve trigleriride results.
Inositol and Choline
Inositol is a vitamin type substance. It is found in many plants and animals. Both these are found in lecithin and both are used in the structure of neurotransmittors (chemicals that allow nerves to talk to one another). This combination can help reduce fat build ups on the sides of the heart and arteries. Choline helps prevent the build up of cholesterol. It helps emulsify cholesterol so it is unlikely to settle on artery walls. phosphatidyl choline transports the cholesterol so it can be used by the body or else excreted.
Policosanol is a chemical obtained from sugar cane and other sources. It is used for many conditions. In the clinic it is predominately used for cholesterol. There is little scientific evidence of its use but you can see the results for yourself. It helps in a positive way for the heart health and high cholesterol and poor circulation and where there is narrowing of arteries. It works by decreasing the LDL in the liver production and reduces the stickiness of platelets so reducing the risk of clots.
Vitamin K2
In Australia the Vitamin K2 (menaquone7) is derived from a Japanese food called natto produced by bacillus subyils fermentation of soybeans. Yes this is an important remedy for bone density but has been also known to be great for cardiovascular plaque issues. It is not right for everyone but for the right person it is very good.
Pomegranite Seed
The inside of a pomegranite is pomegranite seeds. They are like little red rubys to look at.The juice of the pomegranite seeds contain different types of antioxidants and bioactive polyphenols that can promote cardiovascular health, including healthy blood pressure. Dr. Houston at the recent symposium of intergrative medicine spoke of pomegranites good effect on dysfunctional HDL.
Krill Oil
Normal fish oil is good but Krill oil is becoming widely known for its great effects on 'total' and bad cholesterol and lowers triglycerides. It is important that you are not allergic to crustaceans though. As it is a form of oil it needs to be kept in the fridge or a cool spot especailly once it is open. To add to this the effects of krill oil on arthritis are great.
Green Tea
Green tea on its own I do not think will do the job to lower cholesterol. Research has showed that the best dose for significantly lowering cholesterol was 10 cups a day which is a lot of green tea. It is a warming tea, relaxes you, provides antioxidants and prevents free radical damage. Green tea can lower the LDL and improve the disfunctional HDL according to Dr. Mark Houston at the recent symposium. L- Theanine is the extract of green tea and may be an easier way to get the dosage in. Green tea cannot be taken with some chemotherapy drugs, anticonvulsants and some other medications so always best to check with your practitoner.

Pickles are well known for its enduring rich taste of sour and spiciness. Pickle has a very long history of its existence in both the domestic and commercial kitchens. Pickling is a process of soaking or preserving a specific food in salt or vinegar for later consumption as a relish. The word "Pickle" is derived from Dutch word "Pekel" or Northern German 'pókel' meaning "salt" or "brine," which are important in pickling process. In some countries like U.S., Canada, Australia and New Zealand, the word pickle is refers to a pickled Cucumber.
Though the origin of pickle is unknown, however, it is said that it dates back as far as 2030 BC when cucumbers from their native region India were pickled in the Tigris Valley or is said to be have begun in the time of 'Mohenjo Daro' (the northwest region of the Indian). Some books refer pickles (basically made of Cucumbers) to be first prepared for the workers who were building the Great Wall of China. Different countries have their own taste and variety of pickles prepared out of vegetables as well as fruits. Pickles are typically of sour and tangy taste; however, some pickles are sweet & sour too, depending upon the condiments they use in pickling process.
In India, pickles (known as Achar) are available handy in almost every household and a basic condiment of their food. Indian pickles are prepared in variety of colors, taste and from different vegetables or fruits. Most popular pickles are made out of mango, lemon or lime, tamarind, goongura (a sour leafy shrub), tamarind, chilli and Indian gooseberry (amla). Indian pickles are very popular and have their famous branded pickles supplies throughout the world. In countries like United States of America and Canada, pickled cucumbers (also known as "pickles"), olives, and sauerkraut are commonly available. And, in the UK pickles are referred as "dill cucumbers "or, pickled cucumbers (if they're not dill).
Some studies suggest the healthy benefits of consuming different varieties of pickles in a proportionate quantity. It is an excellent source of Anti-Oxidants, rich in nutrients and low in calories. Pickles are an excellent prebiotic food source to the good bacteria that live in our stomach and also, improve liver health. It has a quality of improving the digestive health system of our body and helps in preventing constipation complaints. They are low in calories and carbohydrates, thus helps in weight loss.
With the evolution of online market places over the internet, there is a wide availability of numerous products and made easy to get all varieties of vegetables & fruits pickles from different corners of the world. We may consider the Pickles as a sign of historic and a contemporary taste of our rich cultures and traditions.

Of wind and cake
The winds blew hard today, hard enough to change the contours of the dunes that separate our house from the beach. A few of us went for a two-mile walk along the beach during the windiest part of the afternoon, and it was work. We had the wind at our backs for the first half, but we were trudging into it as the rising tide covered much of the available beach on the return. Spray and sand coated my sunglasses so the world was a gauzy, indistinct vision in front of me. Birds fought the winds and frequently failed, their bodies moving sideways as the air swept them along.
How nice it is to have such easy problems as a hard walk on a gorgeous day at the beach.
Our attack on Mt. Bobcake continues, and we are gaining ground. Opinions in the house are mixed as to whether we will eat all of it before we must depart Saturday morning, with one camp convinced it will be no problem, and the other skeptical at best.
I am in the latter camp, but I am rooting for the former.

Afghanistan's chief justice bans cable TV
Afghanistan's chief justice, Fazel Haji Shinwari, has reportedly said that he has shut down cable television services in Kabul because they were broadcasting un-Islamic programmes.
Afghanistan's Supreme Court has outlawed cable television across the country. The rule was made in response to an appeal against a recent ban of cable television in the eastern city of Jalalabad.
Mawlavi Fazl Hadi Shinwari, the chief justice and president of the Supreme Court, told the Reuters news agency that he had issued orders on Monday to close down five cable television stations in Kabul following similar action in the eastern city of Jalalabad.
"People who filed complaints to the Supreme Court said they were airing half-naked singers and obscene scenes from movies," Shinwari is quoted as saying. "Because of this, I asked the police to stop their activities. What they aired clearly was contrary to Islam and against morality and we had to issue the order. It is up to the government and the education ministry whether to take steps to follow the law. I have told them about the issue and fulfilled my responsibility in this regard."
Five cable firms that started in Kabul since the overthrow of the radical Islamic Taliban regime in late 2001 stand to be affected by the ruling. The firms mostly aired Western and Indian music and movie channels and proved hugely popular in Afghanistan after five years of Islamic puritanism imposed by the Taliban.

Verona, love at first sight
A romantic aura envelops Verona with the myth of Shakespeare's masterpiece. This is your first impression when you walk through squares, bridges, and ancient palaces of this Venetian city which is UNESCO World Heritage Site thanks to its particular architecture. Artistic elements have integrated one another progressively in two thousand years to form a glorious urban structure. Verona is the model of a city that was fortified in several steps, which is characteristic of the European history.
One of the finest and best preserved examples of Roman architecture stands in that little gem that is Piazza Bra: the Arena, an amphitheater where during summer the Opera season and great and important concerts take place. It is situated in the heart of the city, a stone's throw from the university of Castelvecchio and another step away from the medieval squares and from Corso Mazzini, the street for shopping, and just nearby is the House of Giulietta Capuleti – yes that's her, the one from Shakespeare's tragedy Romeo and Juliet.
Dating the arena is a bit controversial, as it often happens with the historical works, however, some elements lead to think that it is dated to 10-30 AD. To date, the Arena is a sensational place where you can fully enjoy the most beautiful operas in the summer heat. And just this year, 2013, marks the centenary of the opera season at the Arena of Verona. On this occasion a special cast made up of Italian and international stars such as Andrea Bocelli, Jose Carreras and Plácido Domingo will be performing on June 1. Even though the season takes place in the summer, the opera is a show that lasts for several hours: so the advice is to go well covered and, for the always cold, bring a light blanket. The Arena is a big and impressive space, with exceptional acoustics. It is good, however, to choose not too lateral places, to enjoy the show at best. But the most important choice is certainly which opera to see: 'Aida', for instance, is perfectly suited; with its magnificent settings, it may be the most worth to be seen in such a frame. Not by chance it is a regular fixture of this season program. This year, among other events there will be a Giuseppe Verdi trilogy: La Traviata, Il Trovatore and Rigoletto. Also by Verdi are Nabucco and the aforementioned Aida. One single date will be devoted to Verdi's Messa da Requiem, on July 13. Roméo and Juliette, of the Frenchman Charles Gonod, will be on stage as well. Ticket prices range from around € 200 for GOLD seats, € 127 for regular seats, up to 23 € for the bleachers. To see the program and buy tickets: http://www.arena.it
The Arena is not the only element of Roman architecture in this city: the impressive Roman theater is undoubtedly another place worth mentioning, it almost lies on the banks of the Adige river that flows and cuts through the city. Pliny the Younger, Latin author of antiquity, in one of his letters speaks of the Arena di Verona as the place where the Ludi (the games of ancient Rome) occurred. The Roman Verona itinerary is one of the most visited by tourists and students. It 's possible to retrace the whole Roman history through the historic sites: Gavi Arch, Corso Cavour, Porta Borsari, Piazza Erbe, Palazzo Maffei, Porta dei Leoni, the Museum, and many others. Among all we recommend a visit to the Museum Scaligero, which gives access to the underground city, a large archaeological site that allows you to take a fascinating journey to discover its roman and medieval soul.
Shakespearean Verona is another fascinating journey: a journey on the trail of Romeo and Juliet, an irresistible attraction especially for couples in love. You start from the house of Juliet, famous for two reasons: the entrance wall on which lovers write their love promise, and the statue of Juliet, whose left breast it is auspicious to touch. Then you continue to Romeo's house, a castle with Ghibelline battlements. Eventually you get to Juliet's Tomb, one of the places where the town of Verona celebrates the civil marriage rite. Inside the garden is the grave: an empty sarcophagus carved in red marble.
Treasure chest of art, history and culture, Verona is an excellent location for wines and flavors, as well. For the most demanding palates, there are many routes that allow you to quietly discover the city looking for delicious emotions: from the Rice Road that was named after the quality of Vialone Nano Veronese rice, the route of Valpolicella or Bardolino wine, or the scented Road of Soave wine.

Growth of intra-EAC trade 'down to joint policies'
Monday December 09 2019
Trade between the East African Community partner states is projected to grow by between five to eight per cent annually if countries fully implement joint policies and regulations, exploit individual competitive edge and eliminate non-trade barriers.
Speaking at the bloc's 20th anniversary, Nicholas Nesbitt, the chairman of the East African Business Council said East Africans, especially private sector players, now need to reflect on how far they have lived up to the ethos of regional integration.
EAC is one of the continent's fastest-growing regional blocs, registering an economic growth of 5.7 per cent in 2018.
"The private sector should be a key partner in the integration process, providing the agenda for economic and social integration but most important, the region should look to becoming a single trading bloc," said Mr Nesbitt, adding that both the partner states and private sector should expedite the domestication and implementation of harmonised policies.
He commended the progress made so far in the improved movement of goods and people because, "starting with the informal sector, it is now easier to access cross border markets; work permit restrictions have been relaxed and professionals and companies are able to expand and establish their customer base."
However, he said intra-EAC trade volumes have not reached desired levels, at just 12 per cent, yet it has the potential to grow at between five and 10 per cent annually.
The EAC he said, is yet to exploit the power of numbers to create more jobs and income opportunities that would improve the purchasing power of citizens, spurring further economic growth.
"The prevalence of non-trade barriers has been frustrating trade within the Community. These NTBs are in the form of prolonged clearance procedures, delays at the ports of entry and exit, delays at weighbridges and numerous road blocks; delays in ferrying of cargo by transit vehicles, non-recognition of EAC Certificates of Origin by some partner states, non-recognition of quality marks issued by EAC Bureau of Standards and retesting of products by individual countries among others," he said.
He cites protectionism at national level as a hindrance to competitiveness in sectors across the region. He recommends value chain collaboration between manufacturers to exploit each country's competitive advantage.

If you open a file with the "read only" checkbox checked in the open file dialog, my application, which uses GENERIC_READ access and FILE_SHARE_READ sharing, cannot get a handle to the same file.
If in my application I open the file with FILE_SHARE_READ|FILE_SHARE_WRITE I can get a handle.
I would expect HxD to not need write access if the read only checkbox is checked when selecting the file to open.
Fixed: HxD: files opened "read only" require write
Bug reports concerning HxD.

Yes, that is too restrictive, these rights aren't necessary.
I uploaded a fixed version. It is in German as it is my development version, but should be enough to confirm if it works.

Some applications recreate the file instead of just writing it which will not work as HxD keeps it open, also in readonly-mode. The intended fix was to allow writing but not creating a file (so technically it is fixed since the current version does not prohibit writes just recreating files).xnifle wrote:Is it fixed really? I've opened a text file on notepad and hxd for writing test, I cannot save the file on notepad. 184.108.40.206 beta version used.
But I have implemented a file locking mechanism in my current development version that only locks a file after you made the first change to a file in HxD, after saving this lock is released (this involved quite some changes as many parts of HxD relied on keeping the file open, which is why I didn't opt for this solution right from the start).
So if you haven't changed a file loaded in HxD or saved the changes, you will be able to modify/recreate the file outside of HxD.
This will be available in the 1.7.2 stable, the latest on end of December or begin of January.
The new version 1.7.6 implements a more relaxed file sharing. (Details at http://mh-nexus.de/hxd/#whatsnew)

The move toward digital transformation is causing the disruption of industry at an unprecedented pace and scale, unsettling how companies organise, plan, make decisions, and operate.
However, only one out of 10 companies feel their current business model will remain economically viable if digitalisation continues on its current path. But the number-one barrier to "bringing the future to market" is NOT that we lack the technologies; the problem is that people and processes have not assimilated and adopted these technologies into their operations.
It's like having access to the Hubble telescope but deciding you are content to look at the stars through your binoculars.
That is why I named my keynote "The Future is in Beta" … beta is where the change happens. Beta is where you can see what obstacles stand between you and success. And for the audience at HxGN LIVE 2018, "success" is to be found in digital transformation.
For many, embracing life-altering change is scary. What if you were to fail?
Well, every worthwhile innovation has seen some degree of failure. Thomas Edison, inventor of the light bulb, said he had not failed … he just found 10,000 ways that won't work.
What we at Hexagon PPM must do is walk alongside our customers as they're ready to take a leap of faith that there's a better way of doing what they do. And I'm not talking about incremental tweaks.
Digital transformation is not a "state." It's a journey, a process. It will change the way you do everything but at the pace that makes sense to your company. It is individual.
It could mean the difference between thriving, surviving, or just not making it.
We are in the early stages of the digital revolution. While 36 percent of companies in our industry say they are adopting digital transformation, only 13 percent report major benefits. Do not be discouraged. This is to be expected. Amara's Law states that people tend to overestimate the short-term effect of new technologies and underestimate the long-term effect.
I hope I've made it clear that we are in this with our customers for the long haul. We are creating a culture here at Hexagon PPM that is different. Most leaders think of purpose as a "purpose for." But what we want with you is a "purpose with."
We don't want to create solutions FOR you, but partner WITH you. We have a shared purpose to speed the journey toward digital transformation.

'Injury prone is not a tag any athlete wants. It's also one that Davis has largely avoided. From 2013-16 with the Colts, he missed a total of three games. That changed in 2017, though, when he appeared in just five games before a groin injury that required surgery ended his season. That led to a rocky breakup with the Colts, who insinuated Davis was healthy enough to play when he thought otherwise. That's a part of the reason he's so anxious to turn the page on last year.'

Jay Skurski's Bills Mailbag: Is there another trade to be made with the Bengals?
'A more realistic scenario would be targeting one of the Bengals' younger receivers in a trade. We've seen the two franchises make one deal already this offseason, when Cordy Glenn was traded to Cincinnati as part of a deal for the Bills to move up in the first round. Cincinnati has ample depth at receiver behind Green and veteran Brandon LaFell. Maybe Tyler Boyd, the receiver who scored the touchdown that beat the Ravens and sent the Bills to the playoffs, could be an option. Of course, the Bills could also wait and see who gets squeezed off the roster at final cuts and try to make a waiver claim, thus not having to give up anything in a trade.'

'"When I was young, I was a pretty big guy and I always felt out of place growing up," he said. "Most people don't know, but I was actually bullied in high school. A group of guys actually threw rocks at me. My dad told me not to worry and to focus on football. So I grinded, and at this point I was really starting to excel. After a few weeks of not letting it bother me, I actually became friends with the guys that bullied me.'
Vontae Davis excited enough to 'make you wanna jump through a table' for Buffalo Bills home opener

So I grinded, and at this point I was really starting to excel. After a few weeks of not letting it bother me, I actually became friends with the guys that bullied me. They are still my friends today, and anytime I go home now, I make sure we find some time to catch up. It just goes to show what can happen when you actually take the time to get to know someone, instead of treating them a certain way because they are different than you," he said.'
LeSean McCoy's 2015 'females only' party generated police complaint from co-host

"He took my diamond bracelet off my wrist. He just kept asking for jewelry. I think this has something to do with my ex-boyfriend … My face is demolished right now."'

'On whether he feels slighted after falling to the third round of the NFL draft: "The chip on my shoulder might be there. I'll always have a chip on my shoulder, but it's not to prove the other 31 teams wrong. I'm not sitting there saying, 'Oh these guys had the 32nd pick and they didn't pick me. These guys had the 41st pick and didn't pick me.' It's not like that. It's just that I feel like I don't want to prove the other 31 teams wrong. I want to prove Buffalo right. They were the team that picked me, so I want to make them look like geniuses."'
