- Air in and out of the lungs: pressure causes the movement of air
Air in and out of the lungs: pressure causes the movement of air
Pleural pressure is the pressure of fluid in the thin cavity between the visceral pleura and the parietal pleura. This pressure is normally slightly aspirated or slightly negative.
The lungs are a ball-like elastic structure that expels all the air through the trachea where there is no force to keep it from expanding. Lungs and chest wall are not joined together, except for the hilum with the mediastinum, the middle segment of the thoracic cavity. The lungs are surrounded by a thin layer of pleural fluid, which helps the lungs move smoothly in the chest.
In addition, the continuous suction of excess fluid into the lymphatic canal maintains a slight suction between the visceral leaf of the pleura and the parietal leaf of the thoracic cavity. From there, the lungs are stored in the chest wall as if there were glue there, except that they are well lubricated and can slide freely when stretching or contracting the chest wall.
Pleural pressure and its changes in respiration
Pleural pressure is the pressure of fluid in the thin cavity between the visceral pleura and the parietal pleura. This pressure is normally slightly aspirated or slightly negative.
Normally the pleural pressure at the beginning of the inhalation is about -5cmH2O, which is the amount needed to keep the lungs open. In the normal inhalation test, the chest cavity expands the lungs with greater force and creates negative pressure, averaging about -7.5 cmH2O. The relationship between pleural pressure and the change in lung volume is shown in Figure 38-2. the negative pressure in the pleural space decreases from -5 to -7.5 cmH2O during inhalation and lung volume increases by 0.5 litres. Then, while breathing out is the opposite.
Alveolar pressure - The air pressure inside the alveoli
When the glottis is open and there is no air entering or leaving the lungs, the pressure in all parts of the respiratory tree, all alveoli, is in equilibrium with atmospheric pressure, equal to 0 cmH2O.
Figure. Changes in lung volume, alveolar pressure, pleural pressure, and trans-pulmonary pressure during normal breathing.
Air can flow into the inner alveoli on inhalation because the pressure in the alveoli has to drop to a value below atmospheric pressure (below 0). Curve 2 (label "alveolar pressure") Figure shows that with normal inhalation, alveolar pressure drops to -1cmH2O. This gentle negative pressure was enough to pull 0.5 litres of air into the lungs for 2 seconds during gentle normal inhalation. During exhalation, alveolar pressure is raised to approximately + 1cmH2O.
Spreads air out of the lungs for 2-3 seconds with each exhalation.
Pulmonary pressure - The difference between alveolar and pleural pressure
The figure shows the pleural pressure as the differential pressure between the alveoli and the outer surface of the lung (pleural pressure) and it is measured by the elastic force of the lung towards the hilum during each respiration, called elastic pressure.
Lung suitability
The dilatation of the lungs causes each unit of the lung to expand, increasing the trans-pulmonary pressure (if enough time is allowed to reach equilibrium) is known as lung dilation. The sum of all pulmonary dilation in the normal adult averages approximately 200 ml air / cmH2O of transpulmonary pressure. That means each time the pulmonary pressure increases by 1 cmH2O, the lung volume after 10-20s will expand by 200ml.
The proper expansion of the lung
The figure shows the relationship between the change in lung volume and the change in pleural pressure. Note that this association is different in inhalation and exhalation. Each curve is recorded by a small incremental change in pleural pressure and allows the lung volume to change step by step between successive steps. Two separate curves, the curvature of the expansion of the lungs, are inhaled and exhaled. And the total graph is called the expansion graph of the lung. The characteristic of this plot is determined by the elasticity of the lung. This elasticity can be divided into 2 parts:
(1) Lung elasticity.
(2) Pulmonary elasticity is caused by the surface tension of the fluid inside the alveolar wall and the air space.
Figure. Adaptation scheme of the lungs in a healthy person. This diagram shows the changes in lung volume during a change in pressure in the lung (alveolar pressure minus pleural pressure).
The elastic force of lung tissue is determined mainly by elastin and collagen fibres intertwined in the lung parenchyma. When the lungs collapse, these fibres contract and curl. Then, as the lungs relax, these fibres become tense and non-curl, elongating, and creating elastic force.
Elastic force is caused by surface tension. The significance of the elastic force is shown in the figure, compared with the graph of the expansion of the lungs when filled with saline and when filled with air. When the lungs are filled with air, there is a common surface between the alveolar fluid and the air in the alveoli. But with the lungs filled with saline, there is no common surface, so there is no presence of surface tension. Note that the pressure through the lungs requires the lungs dilated by air 3 times greater than lungs filled with saline solution. Therefore, this force of tissue elasticity towards the collapse of the air lung corresponds to about 1/3 of the total elasticity of the lung, the surface tension between the fluid-gas in the alveoli accounts for 2/3. The fluid-gas surface tension increases greatly if no substance known as surfactant is present in the alveolar fluid.
Figure. Compare the adaptive scheme of fluid-filled and air-filled lungs when alveolar pressure is maintained at atmospheric pressure (0 cm H2O) and pleural pressure is changed for pressure changes in the lungs.
Surfactant, surface tension and collapse of the alveoli
When water is in contact with air, the water molecules on its surface are strongly attracted to each other. As a result, the surface of the water shrinks, squeezing together like a drop of water
The membrane shrinks slightly of water molecules like the surface of the water droplet. Now let's reverse this and see what the inner surface of the alveoli plays out.
Here, the water surface also tries to shrink. This results in the force to push air from the alveoli to the bronchi, causing atelectasis. This network exerts the elastic force of the entire lung, called the elastic force of the surface tension.
Surfactant and its effect on surface tension
Surfactant is a surfactant in water, ie it reduces the surface tension of the water. It is secreted by type II alveolar epithelial cells, which occupy 10% of the alveolar surface area. These small cells contain lipids. Surfactants are complex blends of different phospholipids, proteins, and ions. The most important components of are phospholipid dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine, surfactant apoprotein and Ca ion. Dipalmitoyl phosphatidylcholine and other important phospholipids are important roles in reducing surface tension. They do this by not dissolving in the alveolar lining. Instead, part of the molecules decomposes while the remainder spreads into the surface of the water in the alveoli. This surface accounts for between 1/12 and of the surface tension of pure water. Surface tension varies between different types of water:
Surface tension causes pressure in the alveoli
If the air leading from the alveoli is blocked, the surface tension in the alveoli is directed toward atelectasis. This collapse causes positive pressure in the alveoli, which expels air. The amount of pressure generated in the alveoli in this way can be calculated using the formula:
Pressure = 2 x surface tension / alveolar radius
The average size of the alveoli is about 100micrometers in diameter and lined with a normal surfactant, calculating a pressure of about 4cmH20 (3mmHg). If the alveoli are lined with purified water without any surfactant, the total pressure can be about 18cmH2O, with pressure 4.5 times. Thereby we see the importance of reducing the alveolar surface tension of surfactant and reducing the support of respiratory muscles to relax the lungs.
The effect of the alveolar radius on pressure caused by surface tension
Note from the formula, the pressure generated from the surface tension in the alveoli acts inversely to the alveolar radius, meaning that if the alveoli are smaller than the alveolar pressure caused by the surface tension is greater. Therefore, when the alveoli are reduced in radius to half as usual (50 instead of 100micrometers), the pressure doubles. This phenomenon is a special signal in preterm infants, many of whom have an alveolar radius of only compared with adults. In addition, surfactant does not secrete normally until between 6 and 7 months of pregnancy, in some cases even later. Consequently, premature infants have little or no surfactant in the alveoli while they live, and their lungs are extremely prone to collapse. What causes this condition is respiratory distress syndrome in newborn babies. It is pregnant if left untreated, especially with continuous positive pressure breathing.

…… extra special fall vibes
Welcome to the fall.
Touching bases and wondering how you are.
Feel free to drop me a line in the guestbook.
It has been an extra special few months in both the country and the world. We have discovered heat waves and floods, lost many who are dear to us, COVID continues to mutate and we head yet again to the polls to see what the future brings. Throughout it all… just remember we are resilient. We've been through tough times before. With some introspection and balance we can weather this storm too.
Summer reunions… and now a change of seasons…. why not enjoy some music while you're here?
Remember to make time for yourself. Enjoy the little things. And while we are in the midst of unprecedented troubles, do not forget to see the beauty around you as well like the autumn leaves and their colors. It's my hope that my music helps lift your hearts a little. I have been busy with new songs… rest assured I'll be releasing them soon. Interesting things have happened… which is always the material for interesting songs.
"The heat of autumn is different from the heat of summer. One ripens apples, the other turns them to cider."
~Jane Hirshfield
To put you in the mood of fall, my staff here looked up a recipe for cider pretty close to the way my Abbott family does it. Oh! and my favorite apple? the tart and crisp ones!
(thank you https://www.thespruceeats.com/) for allowing us to share.
May the "cider" this fall of 2022 remain sweet.
Happy Fall Ya'll
Stay safe… stay vaccinated.
It isn't that they can't see the solution, it is that they can't see the problem.
~ Gilbert K Chesterton
After every storm the sun will smile; for every problem there is a solution, and the soul's indefeasible duty is to be of good cheer.
~ William R. Alger
As always, I am Musically Yours,

Can Myfitnesspal Sync To Samsung Health App
What fitness apps sync with Samsung Health?
The Connected Services feature allows Samsung Health users to sync data with third-party apps and services such as Microsoft Health, Misfit, Fitbit, Jawbone, and Runkeeper. Currently, most wearable technologies and third-party apps are now compatible with this platform.
Is Samsung Health being discontinued?
The company has confirmed through a notice that from March 22, 2021, Samsung Health is no longer going to be available for older devices. New Samsung Health updates will not be released for devices running Android 7.0 Nougat or lower.
How do I sync my health 365 with Samsung Health?
Allow the Healthy 365 mobile app to access your fitness data on the Samsung Health mobile app. Select the 'Profile' tab and tap on the 'My Tracker' card. Go to 'Home' and tap on the 'Sync' button to sync for the first time. Your fitness tracker should sync automatically after the first sync.
Is Samsung Health app accurate?
The Samsung Health app is equally as accurate as a GPS navigator at measuring distance travelled during a run. That's no surprise, since the app makes use of the GPS sensor in your phone or smart watch.
Is there a free version of health sync?
Please note: The Health Sync app is not free. After a one-week trial, Health Sync requires a one-time purchase of $2.99 (current pricing may differ).
Can I get Samsung Health on my tablet?
I am very disappointed to learn that the Tab S7 (wifi), one of Samsungs' latest Tablets, does not support Samsung Health and so is no good for supporting their Active wearables. If you have a Garmin watch then Garmin Connect is compatible with the Tab S7. If you have a Fitbit then the Fitbit app is compatible.
How do I sync healthy health with Apple Health 365?
On the 'Home' tab of the Healthy 365 mobile app, tap on 'Pair your tracker or app' and select 'HPB Trackers'. If you are connecting via QR Code, you will need your HPB fitness tracker's packaging. If you are connecting via Bluetooth, you will need to turn on the Bluetooth® on your smartphone (at least 1.5m radius).
How accurate is the calorie counter on Samsung Health?
Is Samsung Health accurate when it comes to calorie burn? Despite the fact that heart rate data were generally accurate, researchers who examined seven common activity trackers discovered that none of the devices could reliably calculate calories burned.
Does Samsung Health have a calorie counter?
The total calories can be found in the samsung health app in the active widget where it shows all calories burnt for the day.
How do I get the Samsung Health monitor app?
Open the Samsung Health Monitor app your watch, and then tap Download the app. The download page for the app will be opened on your phone. Tap Install on your phone and the app will be installed. Open the Samsung Health Monitor app on the connected phone, and then tap Continue.

Never before has a group been named so aptly. The Friends of Sedgley Woods are truly friends in the most sincere sense of the word. "All of us here are good friends and we come together from all walks of life. From the homeless to millionaires, we are here in Fairmount Park to play a sport we love, celebrate together and make sure this park is here for future players," says Derrick "Turtle" Eason, a regular disc golfer. Most of the regulars at the Sedgley course have nicknames and the jovial, joking tone among the players resembles that of a pep rally more than a sporting competition.
The course at Sedgley Woods is located in East Fairmount Park and is the second oldest course in the United States. Disc golf uses Frisbee-like discs that players use to aim for the holes, which are metal cages.
One of the founding members of The Friends of Sedgley Woods is Paul "Old Goat" Fein, who has been building, maintaining and playing this course since its inception in 1977. "This place looks like a desert compared to when we first started this all those years ago," say Fein.
While the tone among the players may be lighthearted, the mission is serious business. "We do everything here except for haul the garbage away," says Gerome "Rome" Vernon, oversight director for The Friends of Sedgley. The group even provides the trash bags for the numerous waste baskets around the course. "The bags that The Fairmount Park Commission gave us weren't strong enough, so we buy our own. This is an all volunteer effort and the group remains self-sufficient," says Treasurer, David Prue.
The group has many different ways to maintain its coffers ranging from selling disc golf discs at the beginning of the
course, to selling individual slices of pizza. "All this money goes right back to maintaining this course," says Fein. While the group now are the proud stewards of a gorgeous and world renowned course, it wasn't always like this.
Many of the members spoke harshly about the early days of the course, mainly because of the crime and litter problems that plagued the area. "The group is great for this community. Before we were here the ground was covered in coke vials and hookers walked the street outside the course openly, but now it's a clean place you can take your family and have a great time and feel safe," says Eason.
As well as a place to have fun and enjoy the surroundings, the course is host to national tournaments and internationally known. "I have played all around the world and when I say I am from Sedgley, people know about it," says Fein.
Recently, The Friends of Sedgley teamed up with the Fairmount Park Commission, The Horticultural Society and City Year to plant 39 trees. "The Friends do a lot to help maintain the health of the park like replanting efforts and cleaning up debris after big storms come through. We also have the Adopt-A-Hole Program where an individual or group can be assigned a hole to clean and make sure the hole is playable," say Eason. The Friends of Sedgley hold the health and well-being of the park higher than even the playability. "We are here as guests and, as guests, we have a duty to leave the place better than we found it," says Fein.
This sense of community and responsibility is immediately evident when approaching the course. Greeting you on your way to the first hole, besides a group of players palling around, is the lost and found where new players can borrow a disc or two for their round and return them when they are finished. The pile is a heap of brightly colored plastic discs that embodies the mindset The Friends of Sedgley hope to foster.
The Friends of Sedgley also publish a disc golf magazine on a quarterly basis with issues coming out in January, April, July and October. The magazine entitled, NiceUp, has sections written by people who regularly play the course. Many of the articles in the most recent issue concern cleaning up the park, a
call for more volunteers, results and pictures from recent tournaments as well as reports from different courses around the country.
While the group's main mission is to maintain and preserve the course at Sedgley Woods, there is a camaraderie among the participants that is palpable. This may have much to do with the relatively newness of the sport, but it also might be attributed to the attitude of those who chose to participate. "These are just good people who want to have fun and take a walk in the woods," says Eason. Others like Fein talk about the sport as a taking back of the property from drug dealers and other nefarious types. "A while back my son was 12 or 13 and I was watching him play and, all of a sudden, it dawned on me that we have created an oasis here that will, hopefully, be around for future players to enjoy," says Fein.

Whenever a TV show becomes popular, cross media promotion is always something to expect. Given how well mobile is doing as a platform, it isn't strage to get a mobile tie in or even a mobile spinoff for a popular TV series. Over the last few years, we've seen reports of a Breaking Bad trademark filing that led to a game release. It has been a few years since then and today we learn that a new Breaking Bad game is in development thanks to HollywoodReporter.
Breaking Bad: Criminal Elements arrives 11 years after Walter White decided to break bad. Given the popularity of Better Call Saul (the spinoff) and how recent that is, you'd think this game would be based on that brand but Criminal Elements is a mobile game from FTX Games and Plamee with a strategy focus. The publisher says this game will be an authentic extension of the story universe and will be a fun way to interact with characters from the series in a new way. Walt, Jesse, Gus, Saul, and Mike will be included and your aim here will be to grow your criminal operation.
Breaking Bad: Criminal Elements is set to release later this year and it will be free to play as expected. There are no details on release plans or regional availability or even device support yet. I'll post about that information when the team announces details. Are you interested in a new Breaking Bad game?

As the largest American generation, Baby Boomers will continue to shape the economy and markets throughout their retirement years. Their desire to live in their current homes may force many Boomers to pursue minor or even substantial remodeling projects to make their homes accessible to them as they age. Their desire to live in their current homes may force many Boomers to pursue minor or even substantial remodeling projects to make their homes accessible to them as they age. Physical and mental changes associated with aging can make independent living a challenge. Universal Design principles seek to make all environments equally usable regardless of ability. Universal design is not the same as Accessible Design, although the terms are often used interchangeably. Seven Principles of universal design are offered as a guide to help ensure equal use. Incorporation of these principles in new or existing homes and spaces will facilitate a safe, comfortable and useable living environment.

Wild video: Ocala suspect leads police on chase through fences, yards, wooded area
Dale Shrewsbury, 35, is facing charges of auto theft, aggravated fleeing and driving with a suspended license.
On Aug. 11, Ocala police were called to Northeast 9th Street for a report of a stolen vehicle.
Shortly afterward, the vehicle was spotted heading westbound on State Route 40 and a chase ensued.
As is shown in the wild video above, Shrewsbury drove the stolen car through multiple fences, front and back yards and a heavily wooded area.
"I looked outside because I saw a car come quickly down my driveway," witness Kathy Greathouse said. "They were going through my backyard and through the fence at my neighbor behind me."
Eventually, an officer crashed into the stolen vehicle and Shrewsbury took off on foot. He was quickly apprehended by a K9.
Shrewsbury was taken to Advent Health to be treated for a K9 bite and then transported to the Marion County Jail.
"He stole someone's car, fled from police, showed no regard for human life, destroyed property. This is his fourth offense driving while his license is suspended or revoked. He should be in jail," Ocala Public Information Officer Jeff Walczak said.

Gap are making a serious effort to recapture some of the spark that made their label so successful in the '90s, teaming up with SZA to run a campaign of bold colours, big prints, and vintage beats remixed by Metro Boomin:
The dancing's daggy, the colours are loud, and the song's a symphony to every heart ever torn in two. In SZA's own words: "It ended up being something really beautiful and really cool and really nostalgic and positive."
The should've-been-a-Grammy-award-winning-artist has also been busy with Nike, teaming up with the brand to rep the Air Jordan XII Vachetta Tan.
The collab comes off the back of Nike's assertion that the brand is looking to further build and appeal to a female audience. Larry Miller (Nike's subset manager) told an audience in LA this week that "this is the first time we are really showing some love to the female customer, letting them know we are doing a product specifically for them".
Nike's Season of Her collection drops March 23.
Speaking of '90s nostalgia – have you checked out Nike's velcro Swoosh?

The FDA (American Food & Drug Administration) requires that all new drugs be tested for shelf life by exposing drugs to simulated sunlight. The international ICH guidelines define appropriate light sources and provides test guidelines. The guidelines Q1B state that drugs must be exposed to a minimum of 1.2 million lux-hours of visible light and a minimum of 200 W·h/m2 UVA light. These tests are also referred to as Confirmatory Studies.

Fried Chicken, everybody loves it and this one should fix your fried chicken craving.
- 1 Skin on Chicken Thigh
- 200g Plain Flour
- 2 tsp All Purpose Seasoning
- ½ Chicken Oxo Cube
- 1 Deli Roll
- 1 Leaf Savoy Cabbage
- ¼ Red Onion
- 2 tbsp Mayonnaise
- Oil for Frying
- 100ml Buttermilk
First off, marinade the chicken in the buttermilk for about at least an hour. Once that's done, mix together the flour and all purpose seasoning. Take the chicken out of the buttermilk and dredge in the flour. Heat your oven to 200c.
In a wok heat a good glug of oil and heat and until smoking slightly. Fry the chicken on either side for around a minute and then transfer to the oven for 10 minutes.
While the chicken cooks, finely slice the cabbage and onion and mix with 1 tbsp of the mayo, spread the other table spoon on either side of the deli roll.
Once the chicken is done, put it in the roll and top with the coleslaw.

Current Funded Research
Agency: NIH National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases Project Number 1R01AI138921-01A1
Finding a new HIV cure therapy is a major focus of NIH HIV research program. Our Sendai virus vector can genetically modify hematopoietic stem cells to confer HIV-resistance at unprecedented efficiencies. This overcomes the major obstacles in the field for anti HIV stem cell based gene therapy, and allows for the possibility of a HIV cure – the successful long-term drug-free control of HIV disease.
The objective of this research is to understand the role of genetic factors on the pathway connecting insulin resistance (IR) and breast cancer risk among postmenopausal women, a population highly susceptible to breast cancer, and further determine how modifiable factors such as obesity and obesity-related lifestyle factors play a role in this association. Results from this study can improve understanding of the molecular pathways connecting IR-related genetic markers and breast cancer risk, and may yield valuable new insight into the study of gene–lifestyle interactions. The results can also lead to development of behavioral and pharmacotherapeutic (e.g., potential gene-targeting agents or demethylating agents) interventions for those with risk genotypes, in order to reduce IR and modify the insulin molecular pathway, thus reducing breast cancer risk and poor prognosis in postmenopausal women.
Agency: NIH National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases Project Number: 1R01AI100652-01A1
Hematopoietic stem/progenitor cell (HSPC) based gene therapy holds great promise to provide long-term control of HIV with a single treatment. Like HAART, it is essential to combine multiple drugs to effectively suppress HIV and prevent drug resistant HIV escape mutants. The overall hypothesis of this proposal is that stable introduction of highly potent combinations of anti-HIV genes capable of inhibiting multiple early and late steps of HIV viral lifecycle into HSPC will provide lifelong protection from HIV infection The safety and efficacy of anti-HIV HSPC gene therapy strategies, including inhibition of HIV, lowering of viral load and selective growth advantage of protected cells and prevention of resistance will be evaluated in the recently developed human bone marrow, liver and thymus (BLT) transplanted mouse model. Specific aims are 1) To develop novel multi-pronged anti-HIV gene therapeutic lentiviral vectors and characterize therapeutic reagents to inhibit HIV infection in HSPC and their progeny in vitro 2) To determine the long-term anti-gene expression and stable control of HIV through genetically engineered human HSPC transplant in the BLT mouse model. The approach is innovative because it focuses on novel HIV-1 target HSPC protection and the development of novel potent, broad-range early stage and late stage anti-HIV combinations, maximizing the potential to HIV replication not only in HSPC but also all potential target cells. The proposed research is significant because the results may ultimately lead to an innovative, more effective, more convenient, less toxic, safe and more cost effective way of controlling HIV infection than is currently available. The long-term goal is to advance HSPC based gene therapy research and make rapid progress towards providing a new therapy that leads to stable control of HIV by a single treatment. PUBLIC HEALTH RELEVANCE: Our proposed research will positively impact public health with the development of an anti-HIV gene therapy by blocking the multiple early and late stages of the HIV infection. Ultimately, HIV infection will be controlled with a single treatment by protecting the hematopoietic stem cells and their progeny. This research will provide significant knowledge towards the long-term goal of the NIH "HIV cure."

Over 26 million persons have Type 2 diabetes (T2DM), and poorly managed T2DM contributes to early morbidity and mortality; therefore, improving T2DM Fhealth outcomes and preventing T2DM-related complications through excellent self-care is a public health priority. Effective T2DM self-care requires intact cognition and mood, which are linked to brain structural changes. We will examine brain structural status between T2DM patients and non-diabetic healthy subjects, as well as gender differences, and investigate relationships between brain changes and self-care, mood, cognition, and impact of A1C levels in T2DM subjects, which could impact clinical practice and self-care of T2DM patients through the identification and testing of novel therapeutic interventions to protect or restore the brain, minimize or prevent cognitive and mood dysfunction, and thus, improve T2DM self-care and health outcomes in this high-risk patient population.

Narrative Hookah (water-pipe) smoking has quickly grown to become a major global tobacco epidemic among youth; with electronic hookahs more recently increasing in popularity especially among young female adults, who endorse marketing claims that these products are a safer alternative to traditional hookah, but scientific evidence is lacking. Our study aims to elucidate the comparative effects of traditional hookah smoking vs. electronic hookah inhalation on human vascular and endothelial function; and examine the role of inflammation and oxidative stress as likely mechanisms in hookah-related cardiovascular disease pathogenesis. Findings will: 1) provide rigorous scientific evidence to clarify the vascular effects, and the potential mechanisms, of traditional versus e-hookah exposure on known cardiac risk factors; and 2) provide a scientific basis needed to inform FDA tobacco regulatory science for the development of hookah policy regulation.
Funding Agency: NIH National Institute on Aging Project Number: 5K23AG055668-02
Poor sleep in both Alzheimer's disease (AD) patients and their caregivers is associated with adverse health outcomes, and increases risk of institutionalization in individuals with AD. This proposal will pilot test an innovative sleep intervention targeting both groups simultaneously. Improved sleep in AD patients and their caregivers may improve health and quality of life, and may prevent or delay admission of AD patients to institutional settings, potentially leading to decreased healthcare costs.

In the modern world, no business of any size can afford to ignore Facebook, by far the Web's largest social network, with over a billion active users. These days, the best way to browse local businesses is via the Internet, and a large portion of those who check out businesses online are also on Facebook.
More than hosting the social whims of its users, however, Facebook offers quite the marketing machine to small businesses - all these businesses need is a little know-how to get started. Facebook is a great resource for businesses looking to connect with potential new customers, offering more ways than one to expand one's marketplace. In fact, the site offers so many ways to engage potential customers that it may be difficult to figure out where to begin.
Check out these five steps to get started.
Establish an appropriate Facebook presence. A business that hasn't staked a Facebook claim will typically find that its competitors are already on the scene. However, a little competition doesn't mean that a business should strive to create a monolithic Facebook page dripping in ad copy. Businesses should stick to their own pre-established brand identity.
Seek and nurture true advocates. It may seem tempting to "friend" every Facebook users in a 20-mile radius, but those Facebook users who are willing to stand behind a brand are much more valuable than those who feel lukewarm about it at best. When making posts and leaving comments, businesses should curtail the urge to be anything less than genuine; they should avoid bribes, threats, and empty "likes." A true brand advocate will spread that business's message because he wants to - not because a business liked all his photos.
Break out the best possible online customer service. More and more, Internet users expect to be able to ask business questions, resolve ongoing issues, and obtain good advice online. To be truly valued in the eyes of customers, businesses should aim to use social media as a customer service platform.
Maintain a Facebook presence. After building a fan base, businesses should keep in touch. These fans actually want to hear new and worthwhile tidbits about a business they believe in, so it pays to stay in the forefront of their thoughts. A business that has big news or is offering an especially enticing deal would be wise to pay to promote such a post. Unfortunately, Facebook posts won't reach all of a page's fans without a paid promotion.
Direct fans to the business website. In addition to maintaining a Facebook presence, the modern business must build and keep an accessible, easy-to-navigate webpage. One of the best uses of Facebook, then, is to direct fans to the company site, where they can learn everything they need to know about company products and deals. Perhaps they'll even link back to the company site on their own Facebook pages.
When everything is said and done, Facebook offers plenty of benefits for a company, its most sincere advocates, and its new clients. Companies would be wise to remember, however, that they can't control everything that goes on in a social network, and that they shouldn't try to curb every unwanted user post. Businesses should maintain a Facebook presence, but this social media site shouldn't represent the one online basket that holds all of the eggs.

They call it "The Disco Hut." My son, when he went through Basic said they called it the "the Puking Palace." I supposed others have had some less than complimentary names for it.
It was a small cabin like building with two doors. One opened in, and one opened out. It was a rite of passage of sorts for those of us in US Army Basic training. The entire exercise was designed to give you confidence in the Protective Mask used by the military. The protective mask is designed to protect you from the effects of chemical, biological, and at least some of the effects of nuclear warfare by filtering out the effects of gas, some biological agents, and fallout.
Now for why they called it "The Disco Hut."
You go in and the experience is so horrible, you end up break dancing in an effort to get out of there. Drill Sgts had learned a long time ago to make sure they didn't get ran over by someone who just wanted the hell out of there. It's a place where even the bravest of the brave cried.
They had us all lined up to go in there, and we were instructed to put on our masks. For those who have never worn a protective mask, you put it on and you seem to morph into some low rent version of Darth Vader. Your breathing sounds more like someone on a ventilator, and it's an almost claustrophobic experience. One young lady in our unit described it as drowning while still able to breath. You peer out at the world through two view ports that limit your vision, and you find walking challenging because you can't see everything. I began to realize what a horse wearing blinders must feel like when all they can do is look straight ahead.
Slowly they herded us in one or two at a time. Every time they opened the door, music blasted out.
Then it was my turn. The door opened and I stepped through. I knew about tear gas. I was a police officer before I ever went into the Army, I'd used tear gas in riot control and barricaded subjects. I knew what it did and I wasn't looking forward to the experience.
I stepped into what I can only describe as a London Fog of tear gas. The far wall, which couldn't have been more than five yards away seemed incredibly remote and distant. It was dimly lit, and in true disco tradition, had colored lights. A stereo playing the sound tack from Saturday Night Fever was turned up loud. Like a wraith in a horror film, a man materialized in the smoke. He wore a protective mask and seemed at perfect ease.
"What I want you to do," he said, "is take off your mask and then tell me where you're from."
I took off my mask and the gas hit me.
"Oh, my God !" I said. It wasn't a curse, but a prayer for deliverance.
"Where you from?"
I stammered out something. For all I know I told him I was little green man from Alpha Centauri. I wanted out and I'd have admitted to shooting President Kennedy if got me out of there!
My eyes were two pools of flame and my nose and lungs felt as if someone had shoved a red hot poker down them. I coughed, but the cough didn't want to come, and my eyes seemed to swell shut. I wanted to breath but I was immersed in fire.
"Get out of here," the instructor said.
I don't remember thanking him.
Hands guided me out through the back door and into the cool spring air. Relief washed over me. But that didn't happen right away.
"Face into the wind," a voice said. I did as instructed, and opened my eyes. Blessed relief flowed through me as the wind washed the tear gas away. The flames in my eyes went out and my nose cleared after a couple of sneezes.
I could breath again and after a few minutes felt like I might actually live.
Within minutes, the Disco Hut became just one more milestone behind us.
A funny aside concerned a young lady known as PFC Lancaster.
There's two things I recall most about her. She was a nice girl, but she talked at a yell. I'm not sure if she was 2/3rds deaf and assumed the rest of the world was also deaf, or if she was practicing to be a Drill Sgt.. One thing is certain. She spoke, and you heard her.
The other thing I recall most was when it was her turn in the Disco Hut. She walked into the Disco Hut (or so I'm told), cool as if she were walking down the street. When instructed, she pulls off her mask, looks at the instructor and smiled. They had her in there for a good five minutes and the girl didn't cough or shed a single term.
Finally one of the instructors asked her, "Private, what did you do before you came into the Army?"
"I worked for Dow Chemical, Drill Sgt."
"And what did you do at Dow Chemical?"
"I made tear gas, Drill Sgt."
She'd built up an immunity to it and the little London Fog was no worse to her than a casual walk through the rain.
I envied her.

: Marc Mangen
Marc Mangen began his music studies in his homeland Luxembourg and switched to Strasbourg Conservatory when he was 19. But, as almost every jazz musician of his generation, he is mainly self-taught. He played virtually every style of music with many different bands and focused then on pure jazz piano, his first love.
Marc Mangen's style is strongly shaped by his constant research on new harmonic and melodic possibilities. His eclectic style, which is nevertheless very personal, embraces almost the whole history of jazz piano. As a solo piano project, Marc recorded the album « Piano Music » in 2015.
Marc is also a composer. His work covers jazz tunes as well as compositions for large jazz ensembles, especially his own 8-piece band "Afrodisax". As a classical trained musician, he also writes Lieder, choir works and organ music.
Marc won in 2012 the "National Big Band Composing Competition" in Luxembourg with honorary mention.
: Afrodisax
In 1983 he founded Afrodisax, an eight-piece band based in Metz (FR) in which he composes and plays the piano. The band gathers many influences from the stride pianists to the greatest musicians, performing Mangen's themes as well as famous compositions. They recorded two albums. Mangen recreated the band in 2006 now based in Brussels.
: Marc Mangen Trio
Marc Mangen formed his trio in 2008, composed today by Boris Schmidt (double bass) and Niels Engel (drums). Over the years a huge collection of jazz themes of all kind was created, mainly based on improvisation and interaction.
The Marc Mangen Trio has recorded several albums on the label Neuklang Records (DE).
: Rubrica Art Ensemble
A big newcomer on the national jazz scene, the Rubrica Art Ensemble (created in 2013 by Marc Mangen (piano), Maxime Bender (saxophone) and Pol Belardi (bass)) aims at promoting creative contemporary jazz in Luxembourg, interpreting works by native composers at a high level, and experimenting with the creative resources of improvised music.
Has played:
Gaume Jazz Festival, Bruxelles, Lie?ge (BE), Jazz au Chardon, Metz, St. Avold, Strasbourg, Bordeaux (FR), Jazz im Brunnenhof, Saarbrücken, Weimar (DE), Sibiu Jazz Festival, Brasow (RO), Jazz Piano Solo Festival Prag (CZ), JZ Club Guangzhou, Shanghai Concert Hall, Shenzhen Poly Theater (CN), Like a Jazz Machine (LU), USA, Egypt...
"Strains of Delight and Despair takes the listener on a emotional journey of spatial wonder with a three dimensional sonic depth of field as vibrant and full filling as one could imagine. Breathtakingly beautiful." Brent Black, in Critical Jazz, 2013 about Marc Mangen Trio's "Strains of Delight and Despair"
"The Luxembourgish pianist Marc Mangen has just released a new album in which alone at the piano, he demonstrates his talent and eclecticism." Florent Toniello, in Woxx, 2015 about Marc Mangen's "Piano Music"

Reynolds: Different tyre compounds 'quite confusing'
Wednesday 12th August, 2020 - 9:30am
Penrite Racing driver David Reynolds has commended Supercars for "trying new things" but believes relaying mixed tyre compounds information for television audiences is confusing.
Supercars has experimented with mixed tyre compound events since the season resumed after a coronavirus-induced break.
The resumption in play saw soft compound tyres used in the first Sydney Motorsport Park outing while a mix of soft and hard compound tyres were used in the second event at the same circuit.
Supercars will once again trial different allocations with the BetEasy Darwin SuperSprint seeing the two compounds used while the CoreStaff Darwin SuperSprint will feature soft tyres only.
The addition of hard compound tyres to the second Sydney SuperSprint saw a greater disparity across the field.
Broadcast coverage of the second Sydney weekend was largely focused around identifying who was on what compound of tyre, whether they had new or used tyres, and whether they had taken two or more tyres in a pit stop.
New rules have since been introduced that mean drivers who make it into the top 15 shootout will have to use the soft compound tyre.
The tyre allocation has received some criticism, with Erebus Motorsport boss Barry Ryan labelling the set-up "not real racing".
While not as terse in his assessment, Reynolds said he preferred using one compound of tyre across a weekend.
"It's good that as a sport we are adapting and trying new things," said Reynolds.
"Though the general consensus is that everyone does need to be on the same tyre at the same time to find out who the fastest is.
"The different compounds are quite confusing for the teams and the drivers and for that to be relayed across TV.
"If everyone is on the same tyre then I think that's a better way to go about it.''
Reynolds heads to the Northern Territory for Round 5 of the Virgin Australia Supercars Championship with high hopes.
He lies sixth in the standings and has yet to stand on the podium in 2020.
However, he said his form at Hidden Valley Raceway has been strong in recent years, which he hopes can be carried through to this weekend.
Reynolds claimed his first solo Supercars career win with Tickford Racing (then Prodrive Racing) in 2015.
"Darwin is one of my favourite ever circuits we go too, for many reasons," said Reynolds.
"2018 was a really good race. I started fourth and was first by the first corner. That one holds really good memories for me. I had the best start I have ever had in that race.
"The track must suit my style. Obviously, the car has to be good when we go there but the track has good flow and I think the past few years we seem to figure out how to get the most out of it.
"It's also a very relaxed atmosphere and it has a general sense of happiness when you step off the plane there."
The BetEasy Darwin Triple Crown takes place on August 15-16 and will be followed by the CoreStaff Darwin SuperSprint on August 22-23.

EU 2019 Conference on
"Trade Union Practices on Non-Discrimination and Diversity"
Compared to 2010, the number of reports about discrimination at work on the ground of sexual orientation has mounted.
This disturbing outcome of a study in the European Union Member-States was one of the topics discussed at a meeting in Brussels on the 17th of October, 2019.
Human rights and the principle or equal rights have become one of the fundamental principles on which the European Union is based.
A discussion about how to protect people in all areas of social life against discrimination based on all the grounds the EU acknowledges still needs to get to a final conclusion. Nevertheless, the protection in the area of work is legally arranged.
And the European Union policies agrees that trade unions have an important role to play in the battle against discrimination - including the discrimination of LGBTQI+ workers or applicants.
(Picture: the panel)
Almost ten years ago, the European Commission ordered a study about the trade union practices on non-discrimination and diversity. BR> ICF (a global consulting services provider) recently wrote a follow-up study about this subject.
For practical reasons, gender-based discrimination was not included in the study, but it does consider the grounds race or ethnic origin, religion or belief, sexual orientation and gender identity as well as multiple discrimination and intersectionality.
The conference in Brussels was aimed at sharing information about the study and encouraging trade union representatives and others to share good practices. A part of the ICF study includes description of good practices. A panel (with
Tiina Astola
Rossella Benedetti
Jane Pillinger
Ludovic Voet
Nadja Salson
Susan Milner
) discussed the current situation and the solutions.
The ICF study was discussed in the month before the Eurobarometer results will be made public, and the conference participants also got some information from the next Eurobarometer figures.
Examples from various countries were discussed. They varied from the impact of trade unions on new legislation, such as the lobby by the Italian CGIL for the legal recognition of same-sex partnerships in Italy to actions by the Spanish CCOO gender and sexual diversity group leading up to LGBTI-inclusive several clauses in collective labour agreements.
The interest for the conference was overwhelming. Registration facilities were closed well in advance before the conference, since the rooms in the Brussels hotel would not allow more participants.
(Picture: the panel)
A high information density in the morning programme kept people alert, and in the afternoon smaller workshops discussed questions about action perspectives for both the European Commission and the trade union people were member of.
Although the coffee, tea and lunch breaks offered some space for informal exchange of information, the compact programme of one day could not allow a lot of networking.
(Picture: One of the slides: not very optimistic situation under the previous administration in Italy)
But probably, there will be more discussion about the topic in time. The fact that in the new European Commission (probably starting in December 2019) will be the first to have a Commissioner with only Equality in her portfolio without having to deal with other issues, might be a positive sign about the importance of the subject.
To be continued!...

Shin Megami Tensei X Fire Emblem (Genei Ibun Roku#FE) is releasing next month in Japan, and Nintendo and Atlus put together a couple videos so that we can learn more about the game's heroine Tsubasa Oribe and the side stories.
In Tsubasa's trailer she explains how she wants to become an idol who can cheer everyone up, and her Mirage Shiida encourages her by saying that she needs to put those exact feelings into her songs.
The protagonist Itsuki is shown saying "I'm sure your singing will reach them now!" as Tsubaki says "Yep! I'll keep working on it, so watch my, Itsuki-kun!" She then slips up in embarrassment after attempting to tell someone thank you, showing a bit of her clumsy side.
The following video gives us a look at the "side stories" we'll see in Shin Megami Tensei X Fire Emblem. While the main story focuses more on the fight against the enemy Mirages, the side stories consist of mini-dramas that revolve more around the lives of your friends.
Since they're all part of the entertainment business, they all have their own dreams and goals. The side stories will show how Itsuki will support them through their live shows, dramas, hero shows, handshake meetings, and cooking shows, as they step it up in their respective fields.
By clearing side stories, the friends will step up their game as an entertainer and Mirage Master, which can unlock special skills used in combat.
Shin Megami Tensei X Fire Emblem will release in Japan on December 26, 2015 for Wii U.
