iKON's B.I covers girl group dances on 'Oppa Thoughts'
On July 15, the members of iKON made their appearance as guests on 'Oppa Thoughts' and B.I took the time to cover some girl groups' dances for the panel!
SEE ALSO: Akdong Musician releases more teasers for their upcoming comeback
It was mentioned that B.I was very good at girl groups' dances and was asked if he could show the panel something. He agreed to do so without any hesitation and said he would leave it to his consciousness. While he was doing so, the panel couldn't help but notice that the dance covers were all slightly strange and goofy. The rest of the iKON members looked embarrassed and the whole cast including the members continued to joke and laugh as B.I finished his series of dance covers.
Did you catch iKON on 'Oppa Thoughts' this week?

Meet Cycling's Glamour Hammer
The media see Niki Gudex as one of the beautiful people. We love her for being a downhill champion. If we were shallow, we'd be like the men's magazine FHM, which named Australian national downhill series champion Niki Gudex one of the world's 100 most beautiful women. Or we'd be like Inside Sport magazine, which dubbed her "sexiest sportswoman." But at Bicycling, we're deep thinkers.

He did not throw an interception, didn't fumble and was not sacked.
Analysis: Since publicly questioning his own abilities following a five-interception disaster against Jacksonville in Week 5, Roethlisberger has thrown for three touchdowns with just one turnover while recording a 107.2 passer rating over the past two games. Pittsburgh's longtime signal-caller still has surpassed 300 yards just once and has yet to produce a three-TD game, keeping him more of an option in two-QB leagues.
|Oct. 15, 2017 6:52 PM PT7:52 PM MT8:52 PM CT9:52 PM ET1:52 GMT9:52 6:52 PM MST8:52 PM EST8:52 PM CT5:52 UAE (+1)21:52 ETNaN:� - Ben Roethlisberger was 17 of 25 for 252 yards and threw one touchdown pass Sunday in the Pittsburgh Steelers' 19-13 win over the Kansas City Chiefs. He threw one interception, didn't fumble and was sacked one time.
Analysis: Big Ben bounced back from a dismal five-interception game last week against Jacksonville with a much better performance. He it Antonio Brown on eight of his 17 completions and completed a season-high 68.0 percent of his passes. Still without a multiple-TD game since Week 2, Roethlisberger has another tough matchup next week against the Bengals.
|Oct. 8, 2017 3:34 PM PT4:34 PM MT5:34 PM CT6:34 PM ET22:34 GMT6:34 3:34 PM MST5:34 PM EST5:34 PM CT2:34 UAE (+1)18:34 ETNaN:� - Ben Roethlisberger was 33 of 55 for 312 yards and didn't throw a touchdown pass Sunday in the Pittsburgh Steelers' 30-9 loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars. He threw five interceptions, didn't fumble and was sacked two times. Roethlisberger added one rushing yard on one carry.
Analysis: The Steelers' offense couldn't recover as Roethlisberger finished with a passer rating of 37.8, his worst at Heinz Field since a 30.7 rating against the Cincinnati Bengals early in the 2006 season. He took the blame in the locker room -- repeatedly saying "I need to play better."
|Oct. 1, 2017 2:50 PM PT3:50 PM MT4:50 PM CT5:50 PM ET21:50 GMT5:50 2:50 PM MST4:50 PM EST4:50 PM CT1:50 UAE (+1)17:50 ETNaN:� - Ben Roethlisberger was 18 of 30 for 216 yards and threw one touchdown pass Sunday in the Pittsburgh Steelers' 26-9 win over the Baltimore Ravens. He threw one interception, didn't fumble and was sacked one time.
Analysis: Roethlisberger wasn't great, though he didn't need to be on a day in which the Steelers rode Le'Veon Bell and their defense to a relatively easy victory. The trusty veteran has posted solid yet unspectacular totals of 957 yards and six touchdowns through four games, and he gets a potentially tough matchup at home against the Jaguars in Week 5.
|Sep. 24, 2017 4:36 PM PT5:36 PM MT6:36 PM CT7:36 PM ET23:36 GMT7:36 4:36 PM MST6:36 PM EST6:36 PM CT3:36 UAE (+1)19:36 ETNaN:� - Ben Roethlisberger was 22 of 39 for 235 yards and threw one touchdown pass Sunday in the Pittsburgh Steelers' 23-17 loss to the Chicago Bears. He did not throw an interception, fumbled once and was sacked three times. Roethlisberger added six rushing yards on one carry.
Analysis: Roethlisberger blamed himself for Pittsburgh's loss. "I think I was off today," he said after throwing for 235 yards and a touchdown. "For whatever reason, I did not make all the throws I normally would and make the plays I normally should."
|Sep. 17, 2017 1:21 PM PT2:21 PM MT3:21 PM CT4:21 PM ET20:21 GMT4:21 1:21 PM MST3:21 PM EST3:21 PM CT0:21 UAE (+1)16:21 ETNaN:� - Ben Roethlisberger was 23 of 35 for 243 yards and threw two touchdown passes Sunday in the Pittsburgh Steelers' 26-9 win over the Minnesota Vikings. He did not throw an interception, didn't fumble and was sacked two times.
Analysis: Roethlisberger has posted remarkably similar numbers in both games so far. He doesn't seem quite in sync with his weapons yet, but perhaps next week against the Bears he will be.
|Sep. 10, 2017 1:27 PM PT2:27 PM MT3:27 PM CT4:27 PM ET20:27 GMT4:27 1:27 PM MST3:27 PM EST3:27 PM CT0:27 UAE (+1)16:27 ETNaN:� - Roethlisberger passed for 263 yards with two touchdowns and an interception in the Steelers' 21-18 win over the Browns.
Analysis: It wasn't a spectacular debut by Roethlisberger, who had little help from the ground game, but he should have better games than this.
|Apr. 7, 2017 11:00 AM PT12:00 PM MT1:00 PM CT2:00 PM ET18:00 GMT2:00 11:00 AM MST1:00 PM EST1:00 PM CT22:00 UAE14:00 ETNaN:� - Roethlisberger isn't quite ready to head off into retirement, announcing on Twitter Friday that he's told the Steelers he plans to be under center in 2017.
Analysis: The two-time Super Bowl winner, who turned 35 last month, hinted after Pittsburgh's loss to New England in the AFC championship game that he needed to take stock before committing to returning. Though everyone from coach Mike Tomlin to general manager Kevin Colbert to team president Art Rooney II believed Roethlisberger would be back, Roethlisberger kept quiet publicly until Friday. Roethlisberger passed for 3,819 yards and 29 touchdowns last season.

Here is the forest faery I have been working on. And this is just the face this powerful forest faery chose to share with me. I got the feeling it is just an interesting mask. There are three photos here. The second is in the sunlight, the third is with the sunlight showing through the canvas from behind. I enjoy letting light shine from behind a canvas to illuminate a new aspect of the work. I will post more about this soon, as I have more examples to share! It is a fun added dimension.
Yes, this forest faery has purple-ish eyes. 🙂

Rob Kardashian Wishes Future Stepson King Cairo a Happy Birthday With a Sweet Tribute!
Stepfather goals! Rob Kardashian took a moment to honor his stepson on his birthday on Sunday. Posting a pic riding down a giant slide beside the little boy, Blac Chyna's fiancée penned a sweet message.
"HAPPY BIRTHDAY KING‼ THANK YOU for letting me see what a great Mama you got!" Rob captioned the cute pic. "That was the first thing I fell in love with,,, The way she Loves FOR You is something I can't wait for!"
Rob added that his friendship with Chyna and Tyga's son has gotten him excited for his own little one's impending arrival.
"Can't wait for the bond I'm going to have with my daughter so Thank You King for allowing me to see that! Everybody Loves You! HAPPY BIRTHDAY WOOHOOOOOO TURN UP ! GO DODGERS," the reality star wrote.
King had a blowout birthday weekend. First he had a Lego and Ferrari-themed bash at his mom's place before Tyga hosted another Ferrari extravaganza on Sunday.
The little cutie turned 4 and his pregnant mama couldn't be more excited.
"Happy 4th Birthday to my first born son King Cairo. Over the years you have made me a better version of myself and I will always continue to give u unconditional love and support !!! I love you so much my little Ferrari man," Chyna captioned a video.

I almost felt the awed hush of the crowd as he stepped into the grand Hintze Hall in the Natural History Museum London. It was surreal – I had seen him countless times before on a screen yet here he was, David Attenborough, in the flesh. He had a glowing aura about him, a feature which was helped by his bright white hair. David was seated, and people started to make their way towards him. The queue moved forward at an alarming pace and I fumbled in my mind with what to say. How could I convey to someone how much of an inspiration they are to me and my friends? I had still not prepared to say anything when I reached the front of the queue.
The museum staff gave my copy of Life on Air to David as I walked over to the desk where he sat. A bizarre realisation came over me that as I stood, I was taller than him. I looked down on Sir David Attenborough as he read the little note inside the front cover and penned my name neatly on the title page. He was and is still a national treasure, yet he could easily have just been someone's grandfather. I remember smiling at that thought, then realising that I did not have much time. So, I started off with an awkward hello, then thanked him for being such an inspiration. I told him of my graduation in zoology and that I planned to hopefully go into research for wildlife conservation. Although our conversation was brief, I was still able to hear his distinctive voice. It was almost strange to hear it in person and not from the TV! I also don't think I will ever forget when he looked straight into my eyes, smiling, and said; "Good!" in response to my plans. Well, if I ever needed confirmation I was doing the right thing, then that was it! David handed me my book and I was abruptly aware of the rest of the queue. I thanked him once again and left, stopping just outside the barriers to watch a few other lucky people have their copy of Life on Air signed.
I have heard stories of people meeting their long term heroes, only to have their perfect image of them shattered. Not so for David. He seemed to me to be as wonderful a man as he is broadcaster and speaker. I really hope all who want to meet him get the chance.
As for me, I'm still pinching myself!
David Attenborough's Life on Air: Memoirs of a Broadcaster (2014, 3rd ed.) is out now in Hardback and available from Waterstones or the BBC Online Shop.

The presence of cognitive deficits in schizophrenic illness has been extensively documented, and deficits in memory and executive functioning may be related to poor prognosis. Targeting these deficits during the early phase has potential benefits. The neural basis for cognitive deficits in schizophrenia is not well understood, and hence pharmacological interventions alone are insufficient. Future strategies should focus on pharmacological interventions combined with psychological techniques such as cognitive remediation. This review summarises recent findings relating to first-episode schizophrenia.
The occurrence of cognitive impairment in schizophrenia has been well documented since Kraepelin's description of the illness as dementia praecox. Research has shown that subtle but definite cognitive deficits are identified during the first episode that persist with the progress of the illness, even after the more dramatic symptoms have improved.
The exact timing of onset of cognitive impairment during the early phase of schizophrenic illness and its progress and course after the first episode are unclear. Furthermore, the clinical significance of cognitive impairment in first-episode psychosis is not well understood, and there is evidence to suggest that it pre-dates the onset of illness (O'Carroll, 2000). Numerous studies (e.g. Bilder et al, 1996; Heinrichs & Zakzanis, 1998) have reported deficits in attention, memory and executive functioning that are now thought to be strongly related to clinical outcome, perhaps more than are positive and negative symptoms (Hoff & Kremen, 2003). Cognitive deficits can manifest as an inability accurately to recognise social cues or to retrieve appropriate responses. Consequently, patients have difficulty acquiring social and interpersonal skills. It is understandable that, during periods of increased arousal such as psychosocial crisis or relapse, this capacity becomes limited and cognitive functions can worsen.
Some studies suggest that the cognitive impairment in first-episode psychosis differs from that in chronic schizophrenia only in terms of degree of severity (Saykin et al, 1994). In the West London study, Joyce et al(2002) identified a profile of executive impairment in first-episode psychosis that they suggested differs from previous findings in chronic schizophrenia. They suggested that this difference might imply that rehabilitation strategies directed at deficits early in the illness are relevant.
Understanding the aetiology and interrelationship with other symptoms, and developing appropriate treatment models for this clinically significant but poorly understood symptom cluster, are hampered by the fact that schizophrenia is a heterogeneous syndrome.
Nature and type of cognitive deficits
Current understanding does not allow a simple listing of cognitive deficits in schizophrenia. A lack of clear understanding of neural and neuropsychological substrates makes it difficult to know whether the cognitive problems that occur are isolated deficits or whether they reflect a more global impairment (Bilder et al, 2000).
Deficits in the following areas have been consistently highlighted against a background of diffuse impairment:
memory: immediate and delayed recall, verbal and spatial memory
attention processes: slowed cognitive speed
executive functioning: sequencing, organisation and flexibility.
Language, motor and visuospatial functions are less consistently impaired.
It is clear that none of the above is a unitary construct. Attempts have been made to look for a particular dimension of these functions which is maximally impaired in first-episode psychosis.
In a group of 94 patients with first-episode schizophrenia, Mohamed et al(1999) found that patients were as impaired on immediate recall as on delayed recall. They suggested that, since their patients were tested during an acute, unmedicated phase of psychosis, their performance may have been worse than if they were assessed soon after stabilisation of their psychosis. However, Bilder et al(2000), in another group of 94 patients with first-episode psychosis that had just been stabilised, found that memory was more impaired than in 36 healthy controls. Finally, when Hoff et al(1992), to rule out the effects of acute psychosis, retested their sample of 32 first-episode patients during remission, they found no changes in the originally identified deficits in verbal and spatial memory. This suggests that memory deficits are present irrespective of the illness status.
Deficits in verbal memory appear to be an essential component of schizophrenic pathology. Saykin et al(1994) identified 37 neuroleptic-naïve patients with first-episode schizophrenia and compared them with 65 previously treated patents and 131 healthy controls. They concluded that verbal memory and learning is selectively compromised relative to other functions and that memory impairment is not secondary to anticholinergic medication. When attention and executive functioning were controlled for, deficits in verbal memory were still present. This finding suggests that deficits in verbal memory are not secondary to lack of attention or deficits in sequential executive functioning.
It could be argued that memory deficits reflect underlying intellectual impairment. Joyce et al(2002) found significant deficits in spatial working memory, short-term spatial memory and long-term episodic memory in 136 patients with schizophreniform disorder (with less than 12 weeks' medication) compared with 81 healthy controls. Although IQ correlated with memory deficits, the difference between patients and controls remained highly significant.
Attention processes
In a study of 37 patients with first-episode psychosis, Saykin et al(1994) found that attention/vigilance and speeded visuomotor processing were selectively impaired, but to a lesser extent than memory.
Mohamed et al(1999) demonstrated that there was impairment in certain cognitive tasks with and without a motor component. When they compared timed motor tasks and timed cognitive tasks, patients were found to be better at the motor tasks, suggesting bradyphrenia rather than bradykinesia. Patients' better performance on tasks with a motor component than without suggested a decrease in information-processing speed.
Executive functioning
It is common knowledge that people with schizophrenia have difficulties with problem-solving and planning. Patients in their first episode also appear to have severe impairments in sequencing, organisational flexibility (Mohamed et al, 1999), planning ability and strategy use (Hutton et al, 1998). Findings indicating that first-episode patients perform less well on free recall than on verbal memory tests have led to the suggestion that difficulty with free recall is possibly secondary to impaired executive functioning (Hutton et al, 1998).
Mohamed et al(1999) found that aspects of executive functioning such as sequencing, organisation and flexibility were highly impaired in first-episode psychosis compared with controls. A slightly later study (Bilder et al, 2000) reports that executive and motor dysfunctions were relatively less impaired than memory and attention in first-episode patients.
The possibility that first-episode schizophrenia has a different profile of executive functioning compared with the chronic state has been raised by Joyce et al(2002). They found that patients with first-episode psychosis were quicker to initiate responses than were controls, but took the same time to complete each task. In contrast, people with chronic schizophrenia have normal initial thinking times but are slower in thinking about subsequent moves than are controls (Pantelis et al, 1999). Joyce et al suggest that pre-existing pathophysiological processes in the prefrontal cortex that underlie executive impairment further deteriorate at the onset of psychosis and continue to worsen with time.
Are cognitive deficits a trait or a state marker? If they are a trait marker one would expect that they remain stable in spite of treatment. Various studies have shown that cognitive dysfunction does remain stable from the acute phase to follow-up after clinical stabilisation, suggesting that these deficits are indeed trait markers. This trait deficiency may exist in addition to state-related cognitive impairments (Saykin et al, 1994).
Association with other symptoms
The interrelationship between cognitive deficits and other symptoms of schizophrenia is not well understood. Mohamed et al(1999) investigated the effects of positive, negative and disorganised symptoms on specific cognitive deficits and found that only negative symptoms were correlated with impaired performance and that the correlation was weak.
Hoff et al(1999), in a longitudinal follow-up study of 42 patients with first-episode schizophrenia, found that improvement in cognitive performance was associated with improvement in positive symptoms, but was not associated with improvement in negative symptoms or commencement of medication. Changes in cognitive functioning were not correlated with changes in brain morphology revealed by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).
Small correlations between neuropsychological profile and symptoms of first-episode schizophrenia at the time of study entry, and stronger correlations after clinical stabilisation, were found in a study by Bilder et al(2000). They generally found stronger correlations in the neuropsychological scales with negative than with positive symptoms.
The current evidence suggests that the specific memory deficits that occur are not related to generalised intellectual impairment. In a meta-analysis, Aleman et al(1999) concluded that schizophrenia and memory deficits are significantly associated, and that the memory deficits are not secondary to attentional deficits. Researchers have suggested that memory difficulties are primarily caused by deficits in encoding and retrieval rather than in storage (Paulsen et al, 1995).
Organic correlates
Initial computer tomography findings showing an association between cortical atrophy, increased ventricular volumes and poor cognitive function led to the postulation that cognitive impairment is directly related to cerebral damage. Structural brain abnormalities are now known to be present during the first episode of schizophrenia, and some believe them to pre-date its onset (Lim et al, 1996; Zipursky et al, 1998). Zipursky et al demonstrated significant deficits in grey matter volume in patients experiencing first-episode non-affective psychosis compared with normal controls. Their sample, however, included patients with schizoaffective disorder, delusional disorder or psychotic disorder not otherwise specified. A few studies have shown that schizophrenia patients with poor outcome exhibit an increase in ventricular volumes over time. The observed worsening of structural defects in the brain of patients with chronic schizophrenia might be caused by an unidentified pathological process that affects brain structure over time. It could also be argued that these differences are a methodological artefact arising because different studies used different assessment tools on different patient groups.
In a comparison of 25 healthy controls and 37 patients with first-episode psychosis, Fannon et al(2000) found in the latter significant deficits of cortical and temporal lobe grey matter and abnormalities in cerebrospinal fluid. These deficits were not attributable to the effects of chronicity of illness or medication. No relationships were found between any brain matter volumes and positive and negative symptoms.
Selective dysfunction in the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex on functional MRI has been shown to be associated with deficits in working memory in 14 neuroleptic-naïve first-episode schizophrenia patients compared with 12 healthy controls (Barch et al, 2001). Such findings add further evidence to the hypothesis that cognitive deficits are present before illness onset.
Szesko et al(2002) studied 43 males and 32 females experiencing first-episode schizophrenia and found significant correlation between hippocampal volume and executive and motor functioning in the male patients. They did not, however, find significant correlation between hippocampal volume and memory functioning. There were severe limitations in the techniques they used to measure anterior hippocampal volumes and the fact that the correlations were significant only for the male patients indicates possible selection bias.
In a sample of 156 patients with first-episode schizophrenia, Ho et al(2003) found no correlation between neurocognitive functioning, MRI brain volumes, brain surface anatomy and duration of untreated illness. However, patients with longer than median duration of untreated illness showed significantly greater verbal memory impairment and thinner cortical sulcal depth than the patients in the shorter-duration group.
Difficulties arise when attempting to understand the relationship between clinical symptoms that are highly variable over short periods of time and brain-matter changes that are relatively fixed over the same time span. We were unable to find a prospective cohort study that looked directly at the relationship between cognition and progression in brain morphology from the first episode of illness through to the chronic-deficit state.
In 1992 Bilder et al published the results of their prospective longitudinal study on the course of deterioration in cognition in patients with first-episode schizophrenia. They suggest that patients' intellectual functioning suffers both developmental and deteriorative effects due to schizophrenia. They also reported that men showed more evidence of deterioration than women, which supports the hypothesis that men are more vulnerable to a more severe form of the illness and that they have more focal/lateralised abnormalities (revealed in neuropsychological and neurological examinations, cerebral blood-flow studies and MRI scans).
Hoff et al(1999), in their longitudinal follow-up study conducted over 2 to 5 years (mean time to follow-up 3.6 years for the 42 patients, 3.8 years for the 16 healthy controls), found that verbal memory showed less improvement in people with schizophrenia than in healthy controls. However, a major limitation of this study was the size of the control group, which may have led to a finding of greater improvements in executive and spatial memory in patients than in controls.
Several researchers assert that early treatment of first-episode psychosis leads to better outcome. But Norman et al(2001) and Hoff et al(2000) found no relationship between duration of untreated psychosis and performance on any component of neuropsychological functioning, suggesting that there is no support for the toxic effect of duration of psychosis on cognitive functioning. However, these findings cannot be generalised because they have not included results from long-term follow-up.
We were unable to find in the literature a clinical assessment tool that could be used in day-to-day practice. Simple bedside assessments for attention, recent and remote memory, and praxis can be used, although it must be borne in mind that underlying psychosis might affect performance. A review by Heinrichs & Zakzanis (1998) lists the neurocognitive categories and tests that have been used.
Treatment options
Research findings suggest that typical antipsychotics such as haloperidol have minimal influence on cognitive functioning compared with atypical antipsychotics. A review of 12 published studies of the effects of clozapine on cognitive function (McGurk, 1999) revealed the range of its influence (Box 1⇓). Other atypicals, such as olanzapine (Purdon et al, 2000), quetiapine (Good et al, 2002) and risperidone (Green et al, 1997), are also reported to have positive effects on cognitive function. It remains unclear whether these benefits are due to the drugs' effects on neurotransmitters and subsequent symptom improvement or to the absence of the bradykinetic side-effects common with conventional antipsychotics.
Effects of clozapine on cognitive function (McGurk, 1999)
Significant improvement in attention and verbal fluency
Limited improvement in verbal learning, memory and some measures of executive function
Minimal or no effect on visual learning and memory and verbal working memory
Psychological interventions
Cognitive remediation therapy
Cognitive remediation therapy in schizophrenia is an interventional programme for improving cognitive function by focusing on the specific cognitive deficits of the illness such as poor memory and difficulties in planing and decision-making. Some authors prefer to call it 'cognitive habilitation' or 'cognitive rehabilitation', to imply that remediation is not just about improvements on tests found in some studies using the Wisconsin Card Sorting Test.
In 1990, Flescher conceptualised cognitive habilitation as consisting of three main treatment components :
assessing the cognitive impairment and the functionally related disabilities
engineering treatment experiences designed to remediate impairments
cognitive mediation – helping the patients to integrate the treatment experience.
Improvements in attention and concentration are the first step in remediation of other cognitive deficits. Verbal learning and memory are critical components for the acquisition of new skills.
The mechanism of cognitive improvement resulting from cognitive remediation therapy is not well understood. However, one randomised controlled study has shown dorsolateral prefrontal cortical activity changes following cognitive remediation therapy in patients with schizophrenic illness of at least 2 years duration (Wykes et al, 2002a).
A computer-assisted cognitive remediation package is available (Sandford & Browne, 1998) that involves four modules: attention skills; visuomotor skills; conceptual skills; and numeric concepts/memory skills.
Bellucci et al(2003) used computer-assisted cognitive rehabilitation to treat 16 patients with schizophrenia and 18 patients with schizoaffective disorder (for each disorder, the mean duration since first hospitalisation was 16 years). They recorded significant improvement on several measures of cognitive functioning, most noticeable being in verbal/conceptual learning and memory, and concentration.
Errorless learning
Errorless learning (Box 2⇓) is another approach that has been used in cognitive remediation of memory deficits in schizophrenia. It is based on the simple concept that memory-impaired people implicitly remember the errors they make during learning, and these errors interfere with retrieval of target items. O'Carroll (2000) has warned that further study is needed before the benefits reported from a trial of the errorless learning approach in a group of patients with schizophrenia (O'Carroll et al, 1999) can be generalised beyond the research environment.
Errorless learning
The approach aims to eliminate error during learning by:
providing easy discrimination of the different parts of the information being learned
ensuring that the individual does not experience failure during learning
extremely gradual increase of the difficulty of the task to be learned
Integrated psychological therapy
This is a group-based cognitive remediation technique developed by Brenner et al(1994). This therapy focuses on a hierarchy of different skills, beginning with executive functioning through conceptual differentiation then social perception, verbal communication, social skills and problem-solving.
In a meta-analysis of randomised controlled trials of psychological techniques used in schizophrenia, Pilling et al(2002) found that cognitive remediation had no benefits for attention, verbal memory, visual memory, planning, cognitive flexibility or mental state. All the trials reviewed in their analysis had used patients with chronic schizophrenia.
Failure to generalise results has been the major criticism of trials of cognitive remediation in schizophrenic illness. Most of the studies involved patients with severe, chronic schizophrenia, neglecting those with less-severe or first-episode illness; and none considered the use of remediation techniques in clinical practice, where patients might not receive the intensive guidance and encouragement likely to have been given in research trials.
We found no studies on cognitive remediation techniques in first-episode schizophrenia. However, in theory, cognitive remediation should have a particular role in first-episode presentations, by improving premorbid cognitive deficits and preventing the development of further enduring deficits. Evidence that the effects of cognitive remediation therapy are durable is encouraging and merits further investigation (Wykes et al, 2002b).
The significance of cognitive deficits and the importance of remedial interventions for them in schizophrenia, particularly in first-episode presentations, might be neglected primarily because of the belief that antipsychotic medication offers an adequate treatment. It might also be assumed that lingering cognitive deficits are epiphenomenal, lacking functional clinical significance. However, the belief that cognitive deficits are nuclear and irremediable is being shaken by the evidence provided by functional MRI of changes following medication and cognitive remediation therapy.
The process by which cognitive function deteriorates remains unclear. If we were able accurately to predict the course of illness, cognitive remediation techniques could be used to avoid deterioration. We also do not know whether certain cognitive functions are more amenable than others to remediation. In the current state of knowledge, treatment efforts might be wasted on patients who would remain cognitively stable without remediation therapy.
Residual cognitive impairments remain a barrier to complete recovery from schizophrenic illness. Interest in cognitive remediation therapy in schizophrenia declined during the 1980s, as it became widely believed that antipsychotic medications offered adequate treatment. But the persistence of negative symptoms and cognitive deficits in spite of medication led to renewed research interest in the 1990s. More recently, it appears that there is again a trend towards projecting drugs, in this case the newer atypical antipsychotics, as being complete in their ability to reduce even the cognitive deficits associated with schizophrenia. None the less, evidence remains indicating the limited effect of medication and the clear benefits of cognitive remediation therapy in treating the cognitive impairment of the disorder. This should encourage psychiatrists and service commissioners to consider the potential of cognitive remediation techniques in routine community care of patients with first-episode pychosis. The most effective strategy would be to use a combination of psychopharmacological and cognitive remediation approaches.
Cognitive remediation in schizophrenia should be aimed at improving not just specific cognitive deficits, but the functional deficits that arise from them. Focus on functional deficits is a much neglected area in which further research is urgently needed.
Cognitive dysfunction in schizophrenia:
has no relationship to psychological stress
is exactly the same during the first episode and in chronic illness
spares immediate memory
disappears after stabilisation of psychotic symptoms
significantly impairs executive functioning.
Current evidence suggests that:
memory deficits are a direct result of intellectual impairment after the first episode of schizophrenia
memory deficits are not secondary to deficits in attention
neuropsychological deficits are related to negative symptoms but not positive symptoms
structural brain abnormalities are clearly evident at the onset of the first episode of schizophrenia
structural brain defects are worse in patients with chronic illness than in the first episode.
The following are associated with cognitive dysfunction:
dysfunction in the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex
anterior hippocampal volume
lateral ventricular volume
temporal sulcal depth
CSF abnormalities.
Cognitive remediation in schizophrenia:
offers benefits that extend to meaningful daily activities
begins with improvements in attention and concentration
involves verbal learning and memory as critical components
produces no improvements in the domain of memory
can produce changes in activity in the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex.
As regards cognitive deficits during first-episode schizophrenia:
memory function is not related to illness status
verbal memory dysfunction is secondary to attentional deficits
spatial working memory and episodic long-term memory are impaired
verbal memory has been shown to be more impaired than other cognitive functions
pathophysiology in the prefrontal cortex underlies executive dysfunction.

Recent guest reviews
The staff were very nice. The hotel is in a very good location if you want to be able to walk easily to lot of things especially to many restaurants, cafes and bars. Also just a 5 minute walk to the Reef Fleet where many of the tours to the Great Barrier Reef leave from.
Very nice location, near the town center. Clean room and nice view
I like this place a lot. I had an unexpected view of the ocean between buildings, and the location is very central to hotel restaurants, downtown, charter boats, and the casino.
We really enjoyed the hotel. Overall, the view was the best part. It is close to the harbor.
Great location, a block away from some key places (Reef Fleet terminal, Esplanade, lagoon, Woolworth's grocery store). Restaurants and shopping literally on the same block (Perotta's at the Gallery on Shield's/Abbott St is good, although a bit pricey), and more within a few more blocks. There's a tourism desk in the lobby (with brochures), and they'll make reservations for tourist attractions (no additional fee). 10-15min drive from airport. It's almost the same cost to take taxi if >2ppl; shuttle is a only couple of dollars less, and also makes stops along the way, etc. There's a nice pool too, room is quite large, and even has a small balcony (ours overlooked the hills, a parking lot, and the ocean). Overall, pretty satisfied with our stay.
Rooms nice and clean. Great location, this hotel has a nice small pool. The man at the desk told us we paid so little that the internet in the lobby was not free for us!! Don't miss the Great Barrier Reef trips at the end of the street and the night market. Lots of things to see here! (rainy season or not!)

14 April 2009
Very Very Good
So i finished an excellent book last night. Let the Right One In is by John Ajvide Lindqvist, a Swedish author. I saw the movie late last year and loved it. All i can say is that the book is even better. The basic story is simple. Oskar, an almost teenaged boy, lives with his mother in Sweden. He's bullied constantly and dreams of revenging himself on his tormentors. He meets Eli, a young girl who moves in next door, and everything in his life changes.
Because Eli is a 200 year old vampire.
In the book we learn a lot more information about the people around the story. All the adults are ineffectual; some are alcoholics, the teachers seem to ignore/be blind to what Oskar is going through. The children bully, steal, get high, and hide to try to cope with their lives. Oskar is left to navigate the world alone until Eli comes along and opens his eyes.
It is so dark, and lonely, and achingly sad. at a few points i actually found myself crying. You feel so deeply for all the characters. Even Hakan, a pedophile in Eli's thrall, the one character of any you think no one would feel sorry for, is so pitiful and pathetic. what is weird, what makes this story so effective, is that it has a happy ending.
So this is a 7. and one down for the Chunkster Challenge! Yay!
I really really want to read more by this author! Only one other of his books is available in English, Handling the Undead, but as i'd have to get it from either Australia or the UK i supposed i'll have to wait. :( i mean, i'm totally willing to buy the book, i just don't know that i can afford cost plus shipping. *sigh*

I can't pop my stash because I merged a branch which apparently conflicts with my stash and now my stash is seemingly unable to be popped.
app.coffee: needs merge
unable to refresh index
Anyone know how to resolve this?
Turns out the actual issue was an unresolved merge conflict from the merge, NOT that the stash would cause a merge conflict.
Resolution: Commit the conflicted file.
You can find a similar situation 4 days ago (March 13th, 2012) with this post "'Pull is not possible because you have unmerged files'"
julita@yulys:~/GNOME/baobab/help/C$ git stash pop
help/C/scan-remote.page: needs merge
unable to refresh index
What you did was to fix the merge conflict (editing the right file, and committing it):
See "How do I fix merge conflicts in Git?"
What the blog post's author did was:
julita@yulys:~/GNOME/baobab/help/C$ git reset --hard origin/mallard-documentation
HEAD is now at ff2e1e2 Add more steps for optional information for scanning.
I.e aborting the current merge completely, allowing the
git stash pop to be applied.
See "Aborting a merge in Git".
Those are your two options.
If anyone is having this issue outside of a merge/conflict/action, then it could be the git lock file for your project causing the issue.
git reset
fatal: Unable to create '/PATH_TO_PROJECT/.git/index.lock': File exists.
rm -f /PATH_TO_PROJECT/.git/index.lock
git reset
git stash pop
I was having this issue, then resolving the conflict and commiting, and doing
git stash pop again was restoring the same stash again (causing the same conflict :-( ).
What I had to do is
git stash drop to get rid of it.

Ranbir Kapoor And Father Rishi Kapoor Wow Crowds At IIFA
Father-son duo Rishi Kapoor and Ranbir Kapoor gave an electrifying performance at the 13th International Indian Film Academy (IIFA) awards that concluded on June 9.
Ranbir made an entry with an electric guitar a la Jordan from his film Rockstar and performed to Sadda Haq. He later got dressed as a tapori and danced to Tai Tai Phish from the film Chillar Party.
However, the evening got all the more grand when veteran actor Rishi Kapoor entered the stage mouthing the famous line from the Subhash Ghai film Karz, Kya tumne kabhi kisi se pyaar kiya? The audience applauded hysterically and joined him unanimously cheering, kiyaa!
Ranbir and his father grooved to the song Paisa Yeh Paisa from the same film and continued to regale the crowds with the chartbusting Bachna Ae Haseeno originally from Rishi's film Hum Kisise Kum Nahi and remixed in the 2008 film Bachna Ae Haseeno.

What was your filmmaking background before you made the film?
JUSTIN: I've been telling stories and making films since I was about eight years old. As part of Striped Socks Productions, I have written, produced, and directed two feature films, Wednesday and The Other Side of Paradise.
Where did the idea come from to make The Other Side of Paradise?
JUSTIN: We had originally planned on shooting three features back to back to back; however, as it often does, funding fell through on those films. Our production creative team was put in a position to either start over and spend another year to year and half trying to raise full funding for those films, or reassess what we could make that summer on a much lower and immediately possible budget.
We decided to go forward with the recession era filmmaking. I grabbed a few loglines, several from quite a few years ago, and pitched them to my co-producers and co-writers Arianne Martin and Ryan Hartsell. We decided on one that faintly resembles the story for The Other Side of Paradise. With that, the writing process began, and Arianne and I began to infuse a lot more of our personal relationship and history into the story. This also included a lot of Arianne's childhood experiences as an outline for the lead character, Rose.
What was the process for writing the script? How did you work with your co-writers?
JUSTIN: Once we had the idea, I locked myself away for a few nights and hammered out the main outline. Then we all got together and shaped and finalized it. After that, again, I'd lock myself away and write a couple of the scenes. I'd show Arianne first, and she'd give me her notes, then I'd show both Arianne and Ryan after I did some touch-ups. I'd apply these notes and ideas and keep writing.
This continued until the script was done. It was a lot of wine and a lot of discussion. Having your wife as one of the co-writers, co-producers, and the lead actress is a great asset for immediate notes and ideas. On the other hand, it also made for some challenging discussions, which in the end only helped the final script. Arianne and Ryan each brought very different and brilliant ideas to the table. I loved the experience.
How did you fund the film?JUSTIN: We funded the film by selling investment units. Since, we had quite a low budget, a lot of these were able to be purchased by friends and family. We also had some outside investors that had seen our work in some capacity. In addition, we've spent a lot out of our own pockets as well. We've done all of the pre-production, production, post, distribution, and publicity on our own, while still maintaining full-time jobs.
What camera did you use and what did you like or dislike about it?
JUSTIN: We shot HD on the Panasonic HVX-200 with the Redrock Microsystems 35mm simulator adapter so we could also use prime lenses. I loved the shoot, work flow, and the final product. The only issues I had with the camera was with the adapter, it made it difficult to shoot in low light settings. We would either have to blast the scene with light or remove the adapter. It's a great system though.
What are the advantages to wearing multiple hats (director, writer, editor) on the film?JUSTIN: On a lower budget project that is a personal passion piece, I think it is very necessary to follow your vision from conception to distribution. This lets me continually plan for the next step and phase of the filmmaking process. Most importantly, it allows for the maximum amount of planning to go into the overall marketing and distribution process for the film.
What was the smartest decision you made during production? The dumbest?
JUSTIN: The smartest decision was casting my wife, Arianne Martin, as the lead and listening to all of her casting suggestions for the film. I cast several of the leads and supporting characters based on her word alone, some even without auditions. The dumbest decision was to shoot in Texas in the summer. It was hot! But it did absolutely fit the project.
What did you learn from making the film that you can take to other projects?
JUSTIN: Well, we've chronicled a lot of the process in our feature documentary still in production, called 3 Thumbs Up. With each film, new lessons, ideas, and short cuts become invaluable information for your next project.We will take this new knowledge as we continue to learn into our next feature film, the drama/sci-fi just announced called Swallow. We're very excited about this project and will shoot in early spring.

Castle III part A
Rated 4.5 / 5 stars
Was this done exclusively in flash? Your production value is extremely high calibur.
Photoshop and Swift 3D apart from Flash has been used.
Gallo's Christmas Special
Rated 2.5 / 5 stars
Nice animation
You have some great drawings and animation. The only thing I can add is that your audio has some issues. The characters speak a little too quickly and their sound levels are a lot softer then the sound effects. If you can level off the volumes (to a more consistent level) you'll have a great product!
Thank you, altough I have to admit, I was rushing to get this done, but thanks, i'm glad you liked it :)
Merry Christmas
Mario & Luigi Superstar
Rated 3 / 5 stars
Get rid of the white background. Put something interesting but not overpower in the backdrop. Ad sound effects to the blows. Cut down the length- speed up the action. This is fight sequence. I also felt the ending was a little anticlimatic. Wario could work but get a little involved. That being said-I actually enjoyed it. I think with some tweaking and editing it could be pretty stellar. One of the better sprite genereated movies I've seen!

text: I'm not sure if this is on-topic here, but i'll try anyway. I need to construct a quick shelf to hold some equipment. Right now, i have my Denon 3802 sitting on my desk, and my DishNet receiver on top of my PC case. It's very inconvenient. I want to make a shelf that will allow me to place my DSS receiver and my subwoofer amp on top of the receiver. I was thinking kind of 4 tall legs around the receiver, first shelf about an inch above the top of it (is this enough), and so on. I've never really made anything myself before though so this seems hard. What kind of legs do i use? I mean, they need to be pretty tall and hold quite a bit of weight. And how far apart do the shelves have to be? How much space on top of the Denon? I wanna just slap something together quickly, since i'll be moving into my HT room in a few months and tossing it away.

It is an amazing college which one has to experience. It changes lives and creates the true leaders.

For myself, BANASTHAL VIDHYAPITH is perfect for a girl bad is nothing for me, only this that I miss my parents too much which is not a College mistake at all.
Management are very helpful in sorting out the issues, if any all the faculty members are always available to sort out the queries, as it is a residential school so the discipline is very good and all the things are managed in a systematic way.
Management of college is quite good and able to control such a large number of girls in a compound safelyi seriously admire Mr. shashtri for doing so.honestly i spended my favorite moments of mah life there
