The mock trial was a piece de resistance. What a marvellous teaching tool. In a light hearted comedy about an obviously serious and tragic subject, the participants exposed the main errors that the conference itself had been addressing. Seeing them played out before us was extremely elucidating as well as unsettling. I confess I saw my own errors, as a treating clinician, in those of the family physician Dr. Goodman's 'report. Mr. Justice Preston, playing himself, the Judge, gave an Oscar winning performance alone for witticism and repartee, especially with the brilliant if dubious defence attorney, Terrence Robertson QC, who acted on behalf of Dumb E. Driver. The court recorder, playing herself, and using a romance novel, had the experts sworn in. The exchanges between Mark Frobb, playing Dr. Goodman, and Terrence Robertson were reminiscent of the high art of English parliamentary banter. It was positively 'droll' and I can't recall another time I've heard such amusing debate as to characterize it with this adjective. Danielle Daroux, the plaintiff, "Paula Passenger's attorney, was reminiscent of the lawyer performances of Glen Close as she literally disembowelled the testimony of Dr. Bones, the arthropod expert, played by Stanley Leete, clearly caught with his medical knickers in an embarrassingly major twist. Stanley Leete's performance of wide eyed innocence caused the audience to break out with spontaneous applause. Judge Preston increased the disruption sternly castigating us, the audience, for our unruly behaviour. Beth Inglis, playing the OT expert witness was so amusing as she answered any direct questions with cute cupidity,tangents and jargon. Douglas Lee, playing the psychologist, "Ima Testing" sounded really very erudite with only occasional lapses into high comedy being examined by Danielle Dareux, until Terrence Robertson guilefully discredited most everything he had said. What was educational though was observing Dr. Lee attempting to maintain professional and scientific neutrality as hard as that was in the artfulness of this particular court. In later summing up and discussion lead by Justice Marion Allen the key 'take home' issues regarding expert testimony were reviewed.

A hedge fund trader and Bitcoin researcher recognised for his online alias "Spook"recently released a simple Bitcoin prediction making a solid case for $50,000 by the end of 2018.
Bitcoin has experienced the same bear cycles for the past nine years. The main cryptocurrency would increase in value by several hundred percent and plunge by 70 to 90 percent, recording a mid-term correction.
Particularly, in 2014, Bitcoin suffered its second-worst correction in history, having a record of over 80 percent loss in a year-long period. In a sense, 2018 has been a sped-up version of the 2014 correction, and a case can be done that the two corrections have the same concept because both were caused by the eruption of the retail or individual trader bubble.
How Can Bitcoin Reach $50,000 by 2018?
After a 70 to 90 percent correction, Bitcoin tends to grow by large margins to the upside; although, Bitcoin first needs to secure a really short period of stability, since crypto stability is equivalent to a couple of weeks.
This trend of the crypto market and the tendency of Bitcoin to record large gains and losses in a short period of time caused prominent crypto investors like BKCM founder Brian Kelly to say that traders must expect 50 to 80 percent losses if they expect 10 to 20-fold gains within a year.
This is what 50k looks like by the end of 2018 pic.twitter.com/ReUyvMBQl5
— Spook (@CypherSpook) July 6, 2018
The chart provided by Spook essentially anticipates that Bitcoin bottoms out at the $6,000 region and makes it reach its all-time high at $20,000 first, and eventually achieves $50,000 by the end of 2018, falling to its previous all-time high at $20,000 subsequent to reaching $50,000.
Considering a fall from $50,000 to $20,000 is equivalent to a 60 percent drop, $70,000 to $80,000 is more plausible mid-term target for the next Bitcoin bull rally. This is specifically applicable if investors expect the dominant cryptocurrency to experience an 80 percent correction in the future, like what it had three times in the past six years.
ETF is the Big Bet
CryptoSlate previously reported that, CBOE, the largest options exchange in the world, filed for a Bitcoin exchange-traded fund (ETF) with the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), expanding the probability of the first bitcoin ETF being approved by the SEC.
CBOE Seeks SEC Approval for Bitcoin ETF
SolidX, another Bitcoin ETF developer, has brought in VanEck that operates around 70 ETFs and ETPs, to convince the SEC to approve bitcoin ETFs that will grant accredited retail investors in the public finance market to invest in Bitcoin with insurance and custodianship.
In May 2018, upon the release of several reports that claimed the parent company of the New York Stock Exchange is preparing to offer crypto custodianship, Kelly said:
Up to this point, it has been very difficult for them [institutional investors] to get comfortable compliance wise in holding cryptocurrency. If ICE has a custodian solution that is SEC compliant, that's going to open the floodgate.

Testing during the day¶
You probably started looping for nighttime; but some people also choose to loop during the day. Here are some things to think about:
- Run the loop over 24 hours collectively in 3 days (doesn't have to be consecutive), and simply observe what the system does when you do meal boluses. You may want to go back to watching determine-basal to see understand what the loop is doing, and understanding
snoozeBGand similar.
- Continue to observe the net basal insulin delivery after one week of looping. See what times of day the system is consistently leaving you with neg negative amounts of IOB to counteract or prevent low BGs; again, you may still be overbolusing and/or have basal rates set too high as a baseline.

Growth in the quick service restaurant sector is showing absolutely no signs of slowing down, analyst firm NPD Group has said.
The established trend of consumers trading down to cheaper eats when eating out is forecast to continue, according to the latest data crunched by the firm.
The QSR channel that includes well-known burger and bakery chains is expected to attract 41 million more visits each year by the end of 2020 to reach nearly six billion visits annually, representing more than 53% of the entire British foodservice industry in visit terms.
NPD's forecast is for QSR to attract £1.53 billion more spend by end 2020 to reach £24.6 billion.
Casual dining will also see strong growth in visits and spend, it said. By the end of 2020, it will be attracting an additional 43 million visits to represent 5.5% of all OOH visits, while spend will jump +15.5% or some £960m.
In contrast, full-service restaurants will continue to decline with a loss of 63 million visits, a drop of -9.3%.
Similar to their QSR cousins, casual dining operators have been quick to expand into delivery. All leading casual dining chains are benefiting from this move into delivery, as well as an emphasis on product and service quality.
Visits originating digitally – meaning customers using digital kiosks or order screens in a foodservice outlet, or ordering online or via apps for delivery or takeaway / grab 'n' go – will exceed one billion per year for the first time by end of 2020.
The use of apps in particular is expected to continue to see a rapid increase in use, with visits that originate from an app (both click and collect and delivery apps) forecast to leap by 88% between now and the end of 2020.
If app-based orders perform as predicted, they will have grown 2.5 times in visit terms since the end of 2017.
Dominic Allport, insights director with The NPD Group, said: "Our forecasts indicate that any future growth in foodservice visits will be overwhelmingly tech-driven. Operators have realised that the full-scale implementation of digital order channels which offer a combination of convenience, engagement and new experience is a pre-requisite for survival and growth in a sluggish, over-supplied market."

Beer Math
Preston Rideout released his latest tips of the trade by outlining how to determine you cost and profit per pint of beer
Forecasting Gross Profit Margin per Pint is not often discussed much less written about because it's Boring. You know what's Not Boring? Putting Money in the Register. You know whats even Less Boring? Maximizing the Money before putting it in the Register. Conducting Beer Math requires a Meticulous Attention to Detail. Unfortunately, failing owner operators, make no attempt to calculate Draft and Craft Beer Profit Margins before ordering Beer
Why, because No One Cares. Except for me. I care and I will show 9 steps to forecasting Gross Profit Margins per Pint. It's that simple. All you have to do is assemble your Keg Cost and Keg Size. Everything else is just basic Beer Math.

Jessica Rabe, actress Lexi Rabe's mother, reports her daughter is being bullied. Lexi Rabe played the daughter of Tony Stark and Pepper Potts, Morgan Stark, in Avengers: Endgame. She gave us the iconic phrase, "I love you 3000!"
Jessica Rabe posted to Lexi's Instagram account and wrote, "Yet again Lexi's getting bullied." Rabe goes on to state, "Please keep your opinions to yourself so Lexi can grow up in the free world. She's a normal human being and she's a child."
Lexi also asked in the video, "Please don't bully my family or me. Bye! Love you 3000!"
View this post on Instagram
I hate that we even have to post this. But yet again Lexi's getting bullied. And this kind of thing makes it celebrities never want to leave the house never want to meet people. Please keep your opinions to yourself so Lexi can grow up in the free world. She's a normal human being and she's a child. We give her a talking and we give her timeouts but we don't do that in public. Sometimes were rushing from place to place stressed like everyone else to get to set on time or work or whatever and we seem a little grumpy. I'm sorry if you see us this way but that's life! If you ask us for an autograph we always almost say yes. If we happen to be having a bad day that might put us right on the right! We are not perfect! These perfect children are not being given the freedoms and the rights that they should. If your child is so scared to be themselves in public and mess up a little then you're over parenting. We give our children plenty of rules and boundaries But then give them the freedoms to mess up and learn from their own mistakes. They would not be on set an on movies if they weren't well behaved. Trust me they have no desire to hire kids like that! And there were plenty of children that productions can work with. So if you see us in public and think you have the right to judge. Wait. Number one until you have children of your own, and Number two realize that we're not perfect and we're not claiming to be! But just try to realize the different strokes for different folks what you do with your kids may work for you and what I do with my kids works well for me. My children love me and respect me even if they act out sometimes. Thank you! Jessica!
Following the initial post, Lexi's mother would follow it up with a meme of Robert Downey Jr. that reads, "Protect a Child. Say No To Bullying! Stay Off Our Page If You're A Bully!"
In the post Jessica writes, "THANKS for ALL your SUPPORT! If you see someone saying unkind things….PLEASE report their account to Instagram . It takes a village!"
While Jessica doesn't provide any specifics of the bullying she has received, she does allude to fans griping about not getting autographs or how Jessica is raising Lexi.
However, MovieWeb reports that Lexi Rabe has received harassment from Marvel Cinematic Universe fans because of the "whitewashing of Ironheart."
They write, "Some MCU fans are angry with her for things that are out of her control (like the possible whitewashing of Ironheart), which doesn't stop them from leaving offensive messages on her social media accounts."
It's unclear if there is any validity to this report as MovieWeb does not provide any examples.
There are a number of Twitter users who appear upset that Morgan Stark could take Riri Williams' place in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. However, they don't appear to direct their comments towards Rabe.

Not only are some people upset about Morgan Stark potentially replacing an as yet to be introduced Riri Williams in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, but certain fans have expressed their concern about Ironheart being white washed in the recently released animated short Marvel Rising: Heart of Iron.
@Marvel_Rising why did you lighten Riri Williams. You're a children show & you're pushing colorist imagery onto little black girls. Riri's comics image was perfectly fine. This is sickening. pic.twitter.com/BV3avGLSVx

I see that they didn't budget for an artist who could animate Riri Williams' hair properly.
Cuz the other guess is that the artist made an assumption that she was white, but had to be re-colored in post-production. Then again, even her voice actress's hair is kinky…. https://t.co/VM7RzgjwpL
— Maurice Pogue (@AbsoluteZero0K) February 8, 2019
Riri Williams has kinky/curly hair and full lips. It's important. Why change that? https://t.co/IVF0OQl6UC

What do you make of this report that Lexi Rabe is being bullied? Why do you think people are allegedly bullying her?

Passengers on a New York-bound flight made an unexpected stop in Florida after a light indicating smoke in the plane's cargo hold switched on Sunday.
Cayman Airways flight KX792 departed the Cayman Islands for New York's JFK airport around 3:30 p.m. — but about an hour and a half into the flight, the plane declared an emergency when the warning light went on, the airline said in a statement.
The plane safely landed at Orlando International Airport and the 103 passengers and five crew members exited the plane through emergency over-wing exits and deployed chutes.
No passengers needed medical attention from onsite personnel when the plane landed, and all those on board were given accommodations and a replacement flight Monday, according to the airline.
Jenn Chirico, a passenger on the plane during the emergency landing, shared a Facebook post with video that showed passengers running away from the plane as it was being evacuated.
"People in exit rows were to help, slides were deployed, we were instructed when on the ground to run as fast as we could from the plane. It was one of the scariest things I have ever experienced," Chirico wrote in the caption.
Chirico said passengers on the plane were okay following the incident — but urged those sitting in the emergency row to ensure they are prepared to help others in case an event occurs during a flight.
"If you're ever in an exit row PLEASE make sure you are really willing and able. This instance wasn't like this and those that were supposed to help, were out for themselves. Pregnant women jumping off wings of planes, people's falling as they came down. This is a serious question when you're asked - be honest," Chirico wrote.
There was no initial indication that there was smoke in the cargo hold, Cayman Airways said — but an official investigation is underway.
"We are extremely mindful that this emergency landing and evacuation was a very distressing event," Cayman Airways President and CEO Fabian Whorms said in a statement. "On behalf of Cayman Airways, I offer a most sincere apology to our passengers for having to experience this emergency landing and evacuation, which was necessary in the interest of the safety of our passengers and crew. We have removed the affected aircraft from service indefinitely in order to accomplish the required repairs."
Four other flights from Cayman Airways were affected Monday due to a schedule change from the rescheduled flight, the airline said.

High-quality web hosting providers who remain affordable and reasonably user-friendly are not exactly standard.
It seems that the price of a smooth and straightforward interface is often financially steep, while many less expensive options are remarkably tricky to configure, low on bandwidth or disc space, or lack the essential support to make the process genuinely worthwhile.
Discovering the right web host for you and your business can be an exceedingly difficult task. Sometimes, the value offered by each option is obfuscated, and it can be bewildering to try to calculate whether you are getting a great deal or not– rather, options which advertise themselves as offering great "bang for your buck" are often providing the exact the opposite.
Most of these sites deal with the same fundamental hosting options" Shared, VPS, Dedicated Server, and Cloud Hosting… Shared hosting is best for small websites and projects, and is often very affordable. Typically blogs, personal sites, and lo-fi local businesses can benefit from shared hosting. VPS Hosting, on the other hand, is quite similar but provides more significant opportunity to define one's own server space; Virtual Private Server hosting is less expensive than many other options. Large-scale websites will probably want to go with a Dedicated Server Hosting option, which gives an entire server to a site– perfect for high traffic projects. Cloud Hosting is more versatile and flexible, and can adapt to the changing needs of a business.
Although there are many excellent international options, there is an undeniable convenience to choosing a platform located in the same country as you (or your business). So, for anybody looking for exceptional service and convenience, allow your choice to be informed by these Canadian web hosting reviews!

The Health Profession Opportunity Grants (HPOG) Program is designed to deliver high-quality training in the health professions to eligible individuals. A National Evaluation of 27 grants awarded in 2015 as part of the second round of HPOG grants (HPOG 2.0) is currently underway. The National Evaluation will include a Descriptive Evaluation of the implementation, outcomes, and local service delivery systems of the grants as well as an Impact Evaluation of the grants' impacts on participants and the HPOG Program's costs and benefits.
This report presents a research design plan for the Descriptive Evaluation, which includes three related studies: (i) the Implementation Study, (ii) the Outcome Study, and (iii) the Systems Study. Each of these studies makes important independent contributions to the National Evaluation:
- The Implementation Study will describe HPOG 2.0 Program design and implementation, including Program context, administration, costs, education and support services, and employment assistance services.
- The Outcome Study will describe HPOG 2.0 participant characteristics, program experiences, and educational and employment outcomes.
- The Systems Study will describe how local service delivery systems (i.e., community resources, funding availability, economic conditions, and policies) may have influenced HPOG program design and implementation and how HPOG implementation may have influenced these local systems.

Tucked away in one of the University of Toronto's oldest and most historic buildings, there's an attic. This attic isn't a place to store your grandmother's old photo albums or records, it's home to the Goldcorp Mining Innovation Suite – an eco-friendly design space for mineral and civil engineering students that was recognized this month with a Canadian Green Building Award.
Located within the Lassonde Mining Building in U of T Engineering, the previously unused attic underwent renovations in 2010 that incorporated advanced sustainability and energy efficiency methods. Architects and engineers worked with the century-old structure of the existing building to integrate the addition, which accommodates 100 undergraduate engineering and 24 graduate students.
"We have transformed a previously unused space into a central hub for our students, while still maintaining the integrity of the original building," said Professor Brent Sleep, chair of the civil engineering department. "The outcome is the perfect mix between old and new."
The Canadian Green Building Awards, in partnership with Sustainable Architecture & Building (SABMag) and ecoHouse, recognized the building for its excellence in eco-conscious design and execution.
Highlights of the Goldcorp Mining Innovation Suite – made possible through significant support from Pierre Lassonde and Goldcorp – include:
- automated "smart blinds" that control temperature fluctuations that come from direct sunlight, known as solar gain – a particular challenge of historic buildings made from stone and brick
- thermal buffer zones, some which act as passive solar chimneys, helping to naturally vent warmer air from the space without HVAC systems
- skylights that allow for natural daylight through the space using specialized light-diffusing material that eliminates glare and promotes uniform light distribution

Tequila Cabeza Blanco
Tequila Blanco
Los Altos, Jalisco, Mexico
This tequila hails from Arandas in Jalisco at the El Ranchito Distillery owned by the Vivanco family, fifth generation agaveros. The agaves are sourced from their own estate which they grow from the "hijuelo" stage (baby shoots) to maturation at 7-9 years of age. The piñas are cooked for 24 hours in 100 degree ovens. Champagne yeast is used for fermentation which occurs only in the winter months. This allows an extended mash period and a fruitier distillate.
Tequila BlancoDistilled from 100% blue Weber agave, it is typically unaged , clear, and bottled straight after distillation. Sometimes rested in stainless steel up to 60 days and can also be aged in wood for no more than 30 days.
Cask Type
Tasting Notes
"The nose is initially tame, perhaps some lime and mint are detected. As you continue to nose and taste, however, the fruit factor really kicks into gear. Lots of ripe tropical fruits are found, almost to the point of a little bit of funk. It skirts the edge nicely. The palate isn't too oily and the finish shows a bit of acidity to prepare you for the next sip. This tequila makes you sit up and take notice."

Kevin G. Volpp, MD, PhD
Dr. Kevin Volpp is the founding Director of the Center for Health Incentives and Behavioral Economics at the Leonard Davis Institute of Health Economics (LDI CHIBE), Director of the NIH-funded Penn CMU Roybal P30 Center in Behavioral Economics and Health and the Penn CDC Prevention Research Center, Vice Chairman for Health Policy for the Department of Medical Ethics and Policy, and a Founders President's Distinguished Professor at the Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania and Professor of Health Care Management at the Wharton School. He is a board certified practicing physician at the Philadelphia VA Medical Center. Dr. Volpp has received numerous awards for his work, including career achievement awards from the US National Institutes of Health and the Association of Clinical and Translational Science, the John Thompson Prize from the Association of University Programs in Health Administration; the Presidential Early Career Award for Scientists and Engineers (PECASE), the Alice S. Hersh Award from AcademyHealth; and multiple "best paper of the year" awards from various societies, including Academy Health, the Society of General Internal Medicine, and the Association for Consumer Research. Dr. Volpp is an elected member of the American Society of Clinical Investigation (ASCI), the Association of American Physicians (AAP), and the National Academy of Medicine (formerly the Institute of Medicine) of the National Academy of Sciences (IOM). He has also served as an advisor to many health plans and employers, including CVS Caremark, Weight Watchers, Ascension Health, and Mckinsey. He is a principal of the behavioral economic consulting firm VALHealth, serves on the advisory board of the World Economic Forum Global Advisory Council on Behavior Change, is a Contributing Writer for the JAMA Editorial Board, and serves on the Editorial Board of Health Care: Delivery Science and Innovation.
Dr. Volpp's work focuses on developing and testing innovative ways of applying insights from behavioral economics in improving patient health behavior and affecting provider performance. He has done work with a variety of employers, insurers, health systems, and consumer companies in testing the effectiveness of different behavioral economic strategies in addressing tobacco dependence, obesity, and medication non-adherence. He has competitively been awarded more than $60 million to lead or co-lead studies funded by the National Institutes of Aging as well as the National Heart Lung, Blood Institute; the National Cancer Institute; the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Disorders; the Center for Medicare and Medicaid Innovation; the CDC; VA Health Services Research and Development; the US Department of Agriculture; Robert Wood Johnson Foundation; the Hewlett Foundation; the Commonwealth Foundation; the Aetna Foundation; Mckinsey; CVS Caremark; Horizon Blue Cross Blue Shield; Hawaii Medical Services Association; Merck; Humana; Aramark; Advocate Health System; and Discovery (South Africa). His research has led to national programs on financial incentives and smoking cessation for 150,000+ GE employees in the U.S., 200,000+ CVS employees in the U.S., and numerous other widely implemented programs such as a prescription refill synchronization program for Humana members, a simple health insurance plan ("Humana Simplicity"), and an approach to increase medication refills using enhanced active choice among CVS members.
Dr. Volpp is inspired to work in health delivery innovation because of the enormous potential for us to do better in improving health than we currently do without increasing health spending. Currently our system is configured around treatment of acute illness; through the use of technology, behavior change strategies, and shifts in health financing towards value, enormous progress is possible in significantly reducing morbidity and mortality from common diseases such as cardiovascular disease and cancer in which health behaviors play a significant role.

Rare plant set to bloom at Connecticut's Beardsley Zoo
BRIDGEPORT — Though it's the dead of winter, staff at Connecticut's Beardsley Zoo are eagerly awaiting the blooming of a plant that only blossoms every decades.
In a news release, the zoo reported that flower stalks have appeared in the center of two Agave plants growing in the zoo's Victorian Greenhouse. The plants are colloquially known as "Century plant," because they bloom so rarely (though the process takes about 30 years, not 100).
The stalks resemble giant asparagus spears. One of the plants has grown to more than nine feet; the other is more than seven feet.
According the zoo's release, the roughly 80-year-old Agave was donated to the zoo in 1956 "by a New Haven pharmacy that was razed for construction of the Connecticut Turnpike. Sixty-four years later, this plant has finally produced a thick flower spike with several side shoots. In its native habitat in the hot, dry American southwest, these spikes can grow to heights up to thirty feet, unfettered by ceilings and roofs."
Zoo horticulture manager Jonathan Dancho said in the release that he will have to tip the base of the taller flower stalk soon to allow it to grow along the rafters of the greenhouse, where it will produce hundreds of golden blooms.
Dancho estimated that the first of the plants will bloom in February or March, followed by the second, larger plant blooming in March or April. The greenhouse has several more Agaves that are years away from blooming. The last Agave bloomed in the zoo greenhouse in 2003.
"We haven't seen a Century plant bloom at the Zoo in 17 years, and it's unclear if or when we'll see one again," said Dancho in the release. "There are some oddities of nature that are dazzling simply by taking so long to flower. The Century plant is one of them."
Most likely an Agave americana, the horticultural staff at the zoo has not been able to discern the precise subspecies in the Greenhouse collection. There are about 22 genera and 720 species of agave plants with spiny leaves.
According to the release, one of the zoo's missions is to serve as a botanical garden for the community, demonstrating the relationship between plants, animals, and humans. The historical Victorian Greenhouse houses hundreds of plants, along with a Koi pond. Volunteers help to maintain the plants, adding signage that is a helpful benefit to home gardeners, garden clubs, and houseplant enthusiasts.

Here's a "first skin" for the USMC in CoD4 multi-player by a developer named Custard. The digital camo is not bad, but there are some parts on the player's body where it gets a little weird, and as stated in the ReadMe, there's a bug with the mip-mapping to where the modded skin will only show up when you come in close. Taking these things into consideration, I gave it the rating you see above. Check out the screenshots below to make your own judgments, and if you like it, give it a download. :)

Staff at closed Tallaght youth centre occupy building
Five workers, given an hour's notice of redundancy, fight to save jobs and centre

Former workers at a youth centre in one of the most disadvantaged areas of the State say they will "sit in" until their jobs are guaranteed and are calling on South Dublin County Council to "step in and save the centre".
Brookfield Youth and Community Centre in west Tallaght closed suddenly on last Friday, after its employees were told at 3.30pm they were being made redundant in an hour.
The €5 million centre, which opened in 2008, provided youth clubs, homework clubs, sports facilities, a youth cafe, parent and toddler groups, parenting courses, as well as classes in dance, cookery and healthcare.
The building is owned by the council, which had run it from 2008 until 2010 before outsourcing it to a not-for-profit company, BYCC Ltd. It was then managed by a board.
An estimated 1,000 children and young people, and their parents, from the surrounding Glenshane, Rossfield, Fettercairn and Brookview areas, used the facility's dance studio, pool and snooker tables, computers, cafe, and arts and music rooms, all of which were open seven days a week.
Last Friday at 3.30pm, the then chairman of the board, David Hoare, told former staff – Kieran Walsh, Christopher Donovan, Gemma O'Reilly, Karen Flanagan and Nicola Nagle – the centre was closing within an hour. They were offered four weeks' pay in lieu of notice, said Mr Hoare.
He said it had made him "physically sick" to close the centre, saying he had been involved "from the very beginning" in getting it built and opened.
He said a number of people had resigned and retired from the board over the past year, none of whom had been replaced due to a background legal issue. "It just wasn't feasible, or legal, for me to keep running the place as the sole member of the board. So I had to tell the workers we were ceasing trading with immediate effect. I'm hoping South Dublin County Council can step in a find a solution. It is a terrible loss to the area if those services go."
Occupying the building
Mr Walsh and his former colleagues, who have been sleeping on couches and blow-up beds in the building for almost a week, say they cannot leave the building.
"If we leave and the council changes the locks, we will just be forgotten about. This is where we work, this is our centre, too, and we have to be part of any solution."
As local schools closed on Thursday, children came to the centre on to see if there was any news. Erica Pajet (11), from Fettercairn, was "very sad" it had closed. "We used it for just going to chill out, play games and do homework. My little cousin did Irish dancing there and she can't do it any more."
The Government, in its strategy Better Outcomes Brighter Futures 2014-2020, commits to tackling child poverty and said it would "support youth organisations to provide safe, supportive, and developmental opportunities for young people ... within the community."
A council spokeswoman said the council was "anxious to secure first and foremost the physical structure of the building and ensure its security and status are maintained. In addition South Dublin County Council is committed to ensuring that a proper community resource replaces the services previously provided by the company."

Album Review | Glitterbeat | Review by Allan Wilkinson | Stars: 4/5
The one thing we can always rely on when it comes to the sound of what we now refer to as Sahara Blues, is the utterly infectious groove that seems to permeate each song and the opening few bars of "Mawarniha Tartit" exemplifies this notion perfectly. Little changes in that groove throughout the song, yet we stick with it until the end and allow ourselves to be drawn into an almost trance-like state. No other music is quite like it. Tamikrest's latest release Kidal, recorded in Bamako, has been two years in the making and once again showcases the band's credentials as one of the foremost bands of its kind. Following the success of Taksera (2015), and Chatma (2013) before that, Kidal continues to promote the music of the area with a title named after the desert town, which stands in the Malian desert and which is surrounded by endless stretches of barren open space, an environment rich in tradition but also of both conflict and defiance. The eleven songs demonstrate a commitment to maintaining the Tuareg traditions of Tamikrest's homeland, but also shows a fearless approach in bringing the music into the twentieth century with modern electric instrumentation. Occasionally though, an acoustic arrangement can stand out like a jewel, in the case of Kidal, the closing song "Adad Osan Itibat". With the charismatic Ousmane Ag Mossa at the helm, a sort of cross between Jimi Hendrix and Bob Marley, Tamikrest show no signs of bailing out of the rebellion or indeed abandoning their nomadic people.

Lichen planus (LP) is a relatively common condition characterised by an inflamed, extremely itchy rash that can affect many different parts of the body. The most commonly affected sites include the wrists, ankles and lower back. Other areas such as the mouth, genitalia, nails and scalp are also affected. It is usually seen in adults over the age of 40 and is not known to be a hereditary condition. It is not infectious, and both men and women are equally susceptible.
Book a consultation
0800 048 9230
What causes Lichen Planus?
Unfortunately, it is still not known what causes this disease to occur, though there is some evidence to suggest that it could be caused by a malfunction in the body's immune system. Some drugs can also cause a temporary LP-like rash to develop which resolves slowly once the offending medication is stopped.
What are the symptoms/types of Lichen Planus?
There are many different forms of lichen planus which differ in appearance and the parts of the body they affect (see images). Typically, LP appears as multiple purple/red shiny, flat-topped bumps that form on the skin in a symmetrical distribution across the body. As the individual bumps heal they change colour from red to purple, then to grey or brown. Sometimes there is scale on the surface of the bumps. Lichen Planus can form in line-shaped (linear) or ringlet-shaped (annular) areas and sometimes appears in scars.
What Lichen Planus treatments are available?
Unfortunately, no treatment has been found to cure LP but thankfully in most patients it will resolve by itself within 1-2 years. However, about 20% of patients experience a recurrence, which can be many years after the initial episode. The aim of treatment is therefore to control symptoms.
Potential treatment options include:
Emollients to prevent skin dryness
Steroid creams or tablets to decrease the inflammation
Ultraviolet light treatment (phototherapy)
Drugs to calm the body's immune system such as tacrolimus or ciclosporin
Drugs to slow down the rate of turnover of skin cells such as acitretin
Frequently asked questions
How might it affect me?
The itching is the key symptom that affects people with Lichen Planus. The appearance of the rash can be distressing for some, especially if it occurs in intimate areas such as the genitalia. Furthermore, as the skin lesions heal, darkly pigmented blemishes may appear in their place which can take months or even years to resolve, particularly in those with a darker skin tone. If LP occurs on the scalp it can lead to patchy hair loss which may be permanent. Pitting, ridging or complete detachment of the nails eroded by LP can also look unsightly.
For further information please visit the NHS website and read the British Association of Dermatology patient advice leaflet.

Our round-up of news, notes, tips, and Tweets exhibiting how public diplomacy affects the world each and every day.
We hear endlessly about political leaders joining Twitter, but there has also been a move toward establishing a presence on Chinese social media as well.
Political leaders dominate headlines and TV news, and some even maintain official Facebook and Twitter accounts. Now foreign leaders are popping up on China's most popular social networks and gaining masses of followers. Before his three-day visit to China, British Prime Minister David Cameron registered an account on the Twitter-like Sina Weibo on Nov. 29. Within ten minutes of posting his first message, Cameron had amassed over 10,000 comments from the social network's users. So far, the post has gained 50,000 forwards, comments and "likes." [Xinhua]
Perhaps the best nation branding campaign possible: winning the "happiest country" award two years in a row.
There appears to be nothing rotten in the state of Denmark these days. For the second straight year, Denmark has been named the happiest country, according to a survey of 156 nations called the World Happiness Report. Based on Gallup data collected from 2010-2012, the survey looks at measures like life expectancy, social support, freedom to make life choices, and perceptions of corruption and generosity. Denmark nudged out Norway, Switzerland, the Netherlands and Sweden. [New York Times via PDiN]

Putin's hardline take on international broadcasting has the potential for serious backlash for RT's credibility.
Still, the voices of support for RIA Novosti are far louder among the Russian media. Some analysts are trying to work out why this decision was made shortly before (and not after) the Olympics. The answer on many lips: the anti-Russian, pro-EU protests that have been going on in Ukraine. This is a worrying moment for a Kremlin administration desperate to strengthen its political power both inside and outside of the country. [The Conversation]

USAID's chief scientist has stepped down, leaving a hole in one of the Obama administration's main mechanisms for promoting science diplomacy.
The chief scientist for the US Agency for International Development, Alex Dehgan, will leave his post tomorrow, he said in an email this week in which he also issued a stern warning about the dangers of reversing the recent gains in embedding independent scientific advice to USAID. Dehgan's appointment to the newly created post in 2010 was seen as the agency stepping up its efforts to link science and development, and supporting Obama administration's push for science diplomacy, after a period of neglect.

Yesterday there was only one contribution to the Summer pledge drive and my sincerest thanks to that person and all the others that have contributed to help keep Insulin Pumpers viable. I thought perhaps I would put our pledge drives in context. If you are a public radio listener, then you know that pledge drives take an inordinate amount of air time. Several time a day there are pledge breaks that last anywhere from 15 minutes to as much as 30 minutes or more, EVERYDAY during the drive. This goes on until the funding goals are reached or exceeded. I'm not fond of pledge drives and am mindful that they can be annoying. During Insulin Pumpers quarterly pledge drives, messages to the list are limited to less than one message day -- that takes a few seconds to read at the most. In fact, since the beginning of this pledge drive there have been only 17 messages in 23 days, including this one. It is a necessary evil that this service must pay its bills. I'd be more than happy to forgo the bucks raised in this manner if there were another source of funding, but I don't happen to be a zillionaire myself and have not been able to get Bill Gates or his ilk to foot the bills. In the mean time, the pledge drives must continue each quarter and go on until the needed funds are raised to pay day to day expenses. The alternative is to stop what we do. Sorry, I don't have another solution. Many of you may not realize that it takes a lot of effort behind the scenes to keep Insulin Pumpers going. My highly visible efforts as well at those of the admin staff mask the efforts of over 50 volunteers and a lot of hard work. Absent all that effort, I'm pretty sure that chaos would prevail in our hugh mail forum and the content of the web offering would not be nearly as good as it is. There much more we could do for sure if there were additional funds available -- I have reams of material just waiting to be published, however, many would agree that Insulin Pumpers presents a premier service to the diabetes community. I'd like to keep it that way and improve things if possible. To date for this pledge drive, our members have kindly given a bit over $3000. That will almost cover a less than months worth of day to day operating expenses. To those that have contributed now and in the past, thank you for your generosity. To those of you who have yet to make a contribution and are financially able, I challenge you to help support this forum and keep it healthy and financially strong. If you participate and feel that Insulin Pumpers has helped you and you enjoy the support of your fellow forum members, then make a contribution to support YOUR forum. With over 4200 members we're talking less than 50 cents a month if everyone would contribute. You probably lose more change than that! If each member contributed just 50 cents a month -- less than a buck!!, no fund raising would be needed to reach our goal. I know that not everyone will do this, and to those of you who have given more -- much more, you have my sincere thanks on behalf of all the staff and members as well. So please won't the rest of you consider making a contribution today. As soon as the goal is reached for Summer, the pledge drive will end. I have no desire to continue it, believe me.

Life Insurance for Ex Smokers
It's possible to get life insurance even if you're a former smoker or have other underlying health i...
In the present booming American economy, many people are exploring different investment options. These include options that require involvement with the stock market, but they also include options within the realm of the insurance industry. There are some types of whole life insurance policies that present wonderful opportunities for older folks to manage their wealth. They also show potential for younger people who are interested in delving into investment vehicles that produce stability on the long term.
Whole term life insurance, also known as permanent life and straight life insurance, is very diversified. It provides a way for people to create a savings account that will reward benefactors in the future. It also creates potential lines of dividends and monetary security for themselves. Purchasing a whole life insurance policy is a big financial decision. Some people view whole life insurance as a long term investment strategy. Other people view whole life insurance as a way to secure money for future generations. In either case, it is beneficial to understand the variances in the different types of whole life insurance available to consumers.
Unlike term insurance, whole life insurance policies are based on the perceived lifespan of the policy holder. This is the major reason why people who are looking for whole life policies should do so when they are younger. This type of insurance assumes certain life stage changes, but allows for the building of cash value, one of the many benefits of whole life insurance policies.
Whole life insurance is purchased as a policy that has a set benefit, but has the power to create revenue. This revenue can be used by the policy holder as long as premiums are paid. This revenue is generated through the company providing the policy, and it is free of most taxation burdens. A whole life insurance policy is a way to generate some financial security within an agreement that continues to hold value over long periods of time. That period is usually the lifespan of the policy holder.
The basic premise of what whole life insurance policies are is securing a payout to beneficiaries upon the death of the policy holder. Someone can buy a policy, and continue to pay premiums as the policy increases in value. Whole life policies are significant because they hold a cash value. This cash value can increase because of things like premium payment contributions, and the way in which the holding company profits from investing the premium amount on the open market.
Since whole life insurance policies are market-driven, they are offered in a wide range of variations. These insurance variations include several options for policy holders. These options are traditional, interest-sensitive, and single-premium.
Insurance companies offer an incredibly diversified range of insurance policies. Traditional whole life policies allow a person to purchase insurance with a set agreement for policy value. Traditional whole life policies include benefits such as:
In order to understand the pros and cons of whole life insurance purchases, it is always a good idea to consult with a financial planner before purchasing a policy. Traditional insurance policies are better for some people. These include younger people who are looking for ways to start a family security plan, or initiate a 'forced' savings routine. Traditional whole life policies have interest benefits that are similar to other banking savings accounts. They can generate revenue that can be used for things like providing secure holding information when applying for a home loan.
There are at least six variances of traditional whole life insurance policies. Each is available to satisfy the investment and security needs of people in diverse financial situations.
|These policies have fixed interest rates and dividends according to an initial payment. They are limited in how much they will grow over time.
|These policies use premium payments as fluid control. Market factors determine the amount that the policy value will grow.
|Indeterminate Premium
|Policies in this category are supported by company investments. Payments may increase due to market slumps, but they will never go beyond a guaranteed premium maximum.
|Dividends accrued with type of policy can be used to purchase other forms of supplemental insurance.
|Limited Payment
|This type of policy has higher premiums for a limited number of years. Once the premiums are satisfied, the policy benefits remain permanent.
|One large initial payment starts this policy in motion. It remains active for the life of the policy-holder. The initial payment can be extraordinarily high.
Whole life insurance is often classified as universal, permanent life, or straight life insurance. It is different than term life insurance because it assumes the risk of the entire lifespan of the policy-holder. Term life insurance is purchased for a set period, such as twenty or thirty years. Whole life insurance is active throughout a person's lifetime. The company issuing the policy assumes the likely risk of death. For this reason, whole life policies can be expensive.
In general, whole life insurance is best utilized by younger people. This type of insurance policy generates a dividend potential that can be used for various types of financial help. Also, the longer a whole policy is in effect, the greater its value will become. Whole life policies are also good for older people who are looking for ways to shelter money. They can use excess funds to create a policy that will carry extreme value upon the event of their death. This is ideal for parents, grandparents, and guardians who are trying to create monetary benefits for deserving family members. In the event of a policy-holder's death, a whole life insurance policy will become an activated savings account.
The types of whole life insurance policies offered match the diverse needs of individuals and families. These policies can become good investment vehicles if they are paired with sound advice. Though they offer amazing benefits, they should be purchased only after meeting with a qualified life insurance agent. Matching the right policy with a life goal can be difficult. All options should be explained an explored before a purchase. This is especially true when a whole life premium is finalized. If it is determined that a whole life policy is best, there is a policy type to match your long term goals.

To any DemandTools users out there - we are trying to automate our interfaces to and from SalesForce using DemandTools product. When the scheduled task tries to execute, it is failing because it says the user account needs to be a System Administrator. When we execute the process manually, we do not get that same restriction. What are others doing to address this issue? Our concern is providing a System Administrator password that could be used to upload or extract things that should not be.
Update 11/6/13: The answer originally provided is not a solution. We sent a request to firstname.lastname@example.com and received the following reply - 'Due to the popularity of our Not for Profit software grant program (now more than 4000 NFP Organizations), unfortunately as of January 1, 2013, we are no longer able to provide direct technical support of any type to our Not for Profit granted friends.' This is from a Sr Customer Success Manager. Any other thoughts?

CASA Supports Student Loan Relief in Government's COVID-19 Economic Response
OTTAWA, ON / ACCESSWIRE / March 18, 2020 / Today, the federal government unveiled its economic stimulus package to respond to the COVID-19 crisis. While COVID-19 is spreading, impacting the economy, and changing how students are completing their studies all across the country, the Canadian Alliance of Student Associations is pleased that today's announcement includes relief for students and recent graduates entering into a tough economy.
Today's stimulus package will help 1 million students across the country get through these difficult times by putting an interest free pause on student loan payments until September 2020. The average student loan borrower will save $160 a month. The federal government has also extended the deadline to file taxes until June 1st, 2020 which will provide students with additional time to file their taxes and claim their tuition tax credits.
"COVID-19 is changing the post-secondary landscape on a daily basis right now," said Adam Brown, Chair of the Canadian Alliance of Student Associations. "This pause on student loan payments is much needed relief for Canadian students and recent graduates as many will struggle to maintain their current income levels and even more will struggle to find work in the months ahead."
In recent weeks, the post-secondary landscape has been rocked by the COVID-19 crisis as post-secondary institutions all across the country closed their doors and moved learning online.
"We urge all students to practice social distancing and try to focus on the end of term, as hard as that may be," urged Adam Brown. "We will continue to work with the federal government to ensure that students in Canada will be adequately supported through this crisis."

Paravane Use
Article Index
To set up your new hand-crafted stainless-steel Makka Paravane just attach about 10 to 12m of 100lb mono trace to the base plate using a swivel. Then on the end of the trace tie your MAKKA Spoon using another swivel. The swivels will reduce the twist in your leader. You should also use a couple of metres of heavy leader from your braid to your Paravane. Then tie this leader onto the large brass ring on the Makka Paravane. This will help prevent the loss of your gear should you get too close to a snag. It is recommended you use 50lb braid as the main line with the leader attached using an Albright knot and a little super glue smeared over the knot. You can use a very heavy hand line, but it is difficult to hold onto for an extended time. You should use a 1600 to 2000 spinning or overhead reel on a short solid 15 to 24kg boat rod. If you want to use a hand line, a good idea is to tie it onto a bicycle tube which in turn is attached to the boat, this will act as a shock absorber should a fish strike.
To use your Makka Paravane, just throw the spoon out the back while you have the boat in gear and gently feed out the trace. When you come to the Paravane, gently drop it into the water taking care to keep it upright with the lead underneath and the brass ring at the middle bend in the stainless-steel bar. Feed out about another 15m of line and place your rod in a rod holder and tighten up the drag. This is easier than trying to hold onto the rod for a number of reasons, firstly it pulls quite hard and secondly because when the rod is in the holder it is easier to see the rod dip when a fish strikes.
You will have to tighten up the drag as you increase speed, or if using an overhead reel you can set the drag at 18lbs. When you have the required speed the drag should be just enough to stop line coming off the reel, but loose enough so a Spanish can take line should one hit. A Makka Paravane pulls quite hard and you will get very tired arms if you try to hold the rod in your hands. A Makka Paravane does shake a little but this just means that it's working properly. This particular Makka Paravane is set to about 8m in depth so if you go into shallower water it may hit the bottom, in this case you can either shorten the line out to about 9m. Remember that the deeper you run your lure the more fish you'll catch. And the big fish are down deep.
After you see the rod dip a few times just knock the motor out of gear and pick up the rod, gently wind up the line keeping constant pressure on the fish to keep the hook in place. When you get to the Makka Paravane just grab the line behind it and sit the rod down or back into the holder. This is where practice comes in, you'll need to hand line the fish in from the side of the boat and not over the transom. You will be leading it a bit like a dog on a leash, then as you see it next to the boat and before it has a chance to run, lift it out of the water and swing it into the boat in one fluid motion. This will take practice and you can only do it with schoolies or small greys. When you hook a large grey, (proper name is Broad Bared Spanish Mackerel), they don't run as hard as a Spanish or even a large schoolie. You can gently hand line them up to the side of the boat and gaff them quite easily. Remember that Greys have softer mouths so be careful lifting them into the boat without a gaff.
Hooking a Spanish Mackerel is quite a different affair, You will know when you have hooked one because the line will scream off your reel. When this happens just stop the boat and if there are no other boats around or pylons you can let it have a run and even let the drag off a little. This won't be the last run, but you must keep the line under tension to keep the hook in place. At times the fish may even swim towards you, so keep tension on the line. After the initial run you can start gaining some line, the fish may have several more runs yet, but generally only one or two more. You need to tire it out before you get it near the boat because when it sees the boat it will take off just like the first run. It is recommended to place the rod in a holder and taking it for a drive if you think it is a big fish; this takes all the fight out of them. Now you can retrieve some line, the work starts after you get to the Makka Paravane, because the fish still hasn't seen the boat and you have the line in your hands. Now you just have to hang on and try to get it close enough to the boat so you can get a shot at it with the gaff. Be careful when the fish swims under the boat and you have the line in your hands, using gloves is highly recommended.
If you can find bait you will find mackerel, also remember when you are trolling, try to travel from north to south and back as this will expose more of your lure to the sun as possible. If you travel east to west the sun can only shine on the front and it won't flash as much.
Now go on, go catch 'em with your Makka!
