It was September 15, 2011: We sat next to each other in the North of Haiti. She spoke softly, tears welling up in her already puffy eyes, "I was at the side of my husbands casket in Port au Prince when the police sent word that they had released the two men arrested for murdering my husband. Why, why would they do that? And then they said that I was to go to the men's homes and bring them, the police, proof of the men's guilt. They said I must find out who was responsible for coming into our home and murdering my husband who was a pastor.
You know someone three years ago also murdered another pastor in our town who was a good friend of my husband and no one has ever stood trial for the murder. Now the police say I must find the persons that murdered my husband and they want me to bring them to the police. I am just a little woman, how can I do that? And my son is in Florida with a neighbor of mine. I was visiting a friend in Florida with my 8 year old son when they murdered my husband. Haitians don't care about human life." The tears began to flow. Hardly audible she spoke these words. "Why did God not stop this? He could have."
It was December 2007: We sat across from each other in the South of Haiti. "May I sit with you?" I asked. He spoke firmly and directly as he extended his hand. "Please sit down. My name is.... they consider me an expert on all the war torn countries of the world. Rwanda, Zimbabwe, I have been coming to Haiti for 40 years." He continued. " Haiti is an island with a special mentality. Many in Haiti believe they are the center of the world. They believe the world is watching them everyday. For a long time Haiti was a society of pirates. Steal as much as you can, as fast as you can before anyone else gets it. There is no value for human life. They care nothing for Haitian life." He paused, sighed deeply and continued. "November 29, 1987 during the presidential election voting process, attackers opposed to the election massacred 30 people in front of me and shot to death my friend and partner a television journalist from the Dominican Republic. He was gunned down after he put his hands up over his head. I went to the authorities expressing my outrage and was simply told, 'Don't tell us what to do with our Haitians, we will do anything we want to.' No one, no one has ever stood trial for those crimes." Again he paused and took a deep breath. "Haiti needs democracy, no not American democracy but democracy that will hold people accountable, those responsible for past crimes. Justice must be brought to the land. Freedom means to act responsibly, and freedom and responsibility are demonstrated through a respect for human life. Haitians must be taught democracy. Haitians must be taught to discipline responsibly." He stopped. " What is it that you want to do?
Briefly I detailed the plans for the Daniel Esther Project. "Ahh! a school of excellence," he said. "You know the French tradition is to study hard. Good schools are missing. Children are eager to learn. They have the potential to learn and to be excellent students." If you create this school you talk about then I will come to see it and I will bring others to come to see it. No one is doing this!"
We can not change the outcome for the young wife and mother and we can not change the death of the journalist or the lack of disciplined justice for both but we can begin to train a generation that understands forgiveness, understands love and walks with the favor, wisdom and stature granted to those as sons and daughters of the living KING. We can be involved in raising a generation to act responsibly and value all human life.
Last week we walked a piece of property, almost 6 football fields in size in Milot, Haiti. We were handed a document from the State of Haiti that states that the land is to be used for our housing and educational facilities. We were instructed to create quickly a regional Haitian organization and to start building immediately.
Luke 2:52 tells us that Jesus kept on growing wiser and more mature, and in favor with God and his fellow man. We too desire to experience the outcomes of this verse and we desire to quickly begin to impart to the Daniel's and Esther's entrusted to us these attributes that speak of true democracy.
Pray for us and join us in funding, implementing and undertaking this project.

There is much information available on the internet, but is it reliable as well? In many places CBD is presented as some sort of panacea, that will cure nearly every ailment. Such claims will make many people skeptical, and rightly so. To simply think of CBD as quackery is too shortsighted as well, as there are certainly indications that CBD may be of use in the treatment and prevention of a variety of ailments. At the same time we here at CBD-medicatie.nl think it is important to stick to the facts. So CBD-medicatie.nl provides clear, fair and balanced information, based on the latest scientific research, so that anyone considering CBD, can make an informed choice.

'Fear The Walking Dead' Has Been Hit Over the Head With a Lawsuit Claiming Copyright Infringement
Posted on Friday, June 29th, 2018 by Hoai-Tran Bui
AMC has been hit with yet another lawsuit over its massively popular The Walking Dead franchise. But this time, it's the spin-off Fear the Walking Dead engaging in the legal battle.
Dead Ahead author Mel Smith has accused Fear the Walking Dead of copyright infringement after its season 2 arc tread too closely to his book's premise of a zombie apocalypse at sea.
In a complaint filed in federal court in California this week, Mel Smith alleges that "portions of that season's 13 episodes were copied" from his own zombie comic series, Dead Ahead. The complaint (which you can read here), states:
"Within the last three years, defendants, and each of them, infringed plaintiff's copyright in DEAD AHEAD by, among other things, broadcasting or otherwise exploiting the second season of FEAR THE WALKING DEAD. Portions of that season's 13 episodes were copied from plaintiff's copyrighted literary work DEAD AHEAD."
Smith is reportedly referring to the season 2 arc of Fear the Walking Dead, which saw the core team taking refuge in the ocean, where they were shocked to be confronted by zombie swimmers. The unpopular subplot was quickly dropped, with showrunner Dave Erickson soon bringing the series back to the dry land of Mexico.
The complaint doesn't give much details about Dead Ahead, but the plot of Smith's comic book is described by one website as the following:
"What had started as a fun little fishing trip soon turns into a nightmare of damnation, trapped on a floating prison. The continents have been hit by a zombie outbreak that spread fast, turning humanity into living corpses, leaving those at sea alive to fend for themselves. With provisions running low, hope comes on the horizon in the form of a luxury liner. All they needed to survive would be on the ship, but who among the fishermen will dare to board the liner and discover what's become of its passengers and crew?"
Smith is filing suit against The Walking Dead creator Robert Kirkman and his Skybound shingle, Gale Anne Hurd's Valhalla Entertainment and executive producer David Alpert. Interestingly, Mel Smith's agent, David Alpert, also happens to be Robert Kirkman's business manager and partner, which could help push Smith's frankly thinly supported lawsuit past the beginning stages.
And with AMC embroiled in a number of lawsuits — which run the gamut from season 1 showrunner Frank Darabont suing over the show's profits, to claims of an AMC profit scam, and a wrongful death suit after a stuntman's tragic fatal accident — it's possible the network will seek to settle Smith's lawsuit as quickly and quietly as possible. On the other hand, Alpert, who is a co-defendant on this case, is also facing his own legal issues over a claim of breach of fiduciary duty.
For now, a dry and ocean-less Fear the Walking Dead will return on August 12, 2018.

The bacteria that reside in the gut appear to play an important role and are able to communicate with the central nervous system notably through neural, endocrine and immune pathways.

I use my USB ports to power all kinds of things, but I've never considered using them to recharge some batteries. Well thankfully, you people don't have to rely on me for technology innovations. Moixa Energy, an R&D company working on renewable energy and portable power technologies has developed some Nickel Metal Hydride AA batteries that recharge via a computer's USB ports. The coolest part is, the USB connector is built in underneath a cap at the positive end of the cell. Trusted Reviews has a full write up on them (nearly 1,200 words) and the verdict is good. Other than having a higher-than-average price, roughly $25 for a pair, the batteries are convenient and can really hold a charge, pumping out 563 consecutive shots on a Fujifilm FinePix S602Z with the LCD and flash going. It mentions that AAA and 9-volt versions are on the way, too.

Bryce Caron is the Lord of Nightsong and head of House Caron.[3]
The son of Lord Bryen Caron. Bryce is a respected warrior. He became the head of the House after his father, mother, brother, and all his sisters succumbed to a terrible chill in 289 AC. Bryce's only known living relative is his half-brother, Ser Rolland Storm, a bastard son of Bryen.[6]
Recent Events
A Game of Thrones
Lord Bryce participates in the Hand's tourney in King's Landing given in the honor of Lord Eddard Stark, but he is defeated by Ser Jaime Lannister of the Kingsguard.[7] Bryce's name is read aloud during King Joffrey I Baratheon's first court session, placing him in a list of nobles who are instructed to come to King's Landing to swear fealty to Joffrey or else be named traitors to the realm.[8]
A Clash of Kings
When Lord Renly Baratheon declares himself king, Lord Bryce chooses to support him and is named to Renly's new Rainbow Guard, in which he wears the color orange, which gives him the nickname Bryce the Orange.[1] Bryce is among the nobles from Renly's camp beneath Bitterbridge that attend the feast, where he goads his fellow Rainbow Guard Ser Robar Royce into juggling daggers.[9]
When Renly learns that Stannis Baratheon has laid siege to Sorm's End, Bryce travels with him to the castle. He is present at the failed parley beneath the walls of Storm's End between Renly and Stannis. Renly gives him command of the left flank in the coming battle between the brothers.[10] However, before the battle can take place, Renly is assassinated by Melisandre.[11]
After Renly's death, Bryce rallies to Stannis, offering to fight Ser Cortnay Penrose in single combat, if it would win Stannis Storm's End, but he is rebuffed.[12] After the castle is taken, Bryce tells Stannis that Melisandre should be sent back to Dragonstone before the assault on King's Landing, lest it be thought that Stannis owed the crown to her spells.[13]
In the battle of the Blackwater, Bryce is killed in single combat by Ser Philip Foote. His lands, titles and incomes are granted to Philip by the Iron Throne.[5]
A Dance with Dragons
Bryce's bastard half-brother, Ser Rolland Storm, is a pretender to Nightsong, laying claim under Stannis's banner.[2]

I gave up on the windows installation. A friend did a clean install of windows in a VM and the installation worked and ran fine however. I would check to ensure firewall settings are correct maybe the alethzero app can't detect and report connection issues very well. I am not sure what could possibly cause it to go into the spinning wheel of infinity besides connection based problems, so check firewalls, make sure ISP is not blocking you somehow, router has a firewall up blocking you etc.DanGupta said:
Same problem - cannot get AlethZero to startup after an initial successful install on my Mac 10.11.2. Keeps showing the spinning wheel.
This happened when I was following the tutorial on "https://forum.ethereum.org/discussion/1634/tutorial-1-your-first-contract" and once I set the config to use private chain...it went into the loop. Any thoughts?

WILMINGTON, Del.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--AstraZeneca today announced results of two pooled analyses involving more than 4,600 patients with type 2 diabetes. The two analyses, which represent AstraZeneca's ongoing commitment to fully understanding the effects of dapagliflozin across subsets of patients with type 2 diabetes, will be presented at the 76th Scientific Sessions of the American Diabetes Association (ADA) in New Orleans, June 10-14, 2016.
In one analysis of patients with type 2 diabetes and renal impairment (Poster 1095-P), FARXIGA reduced body weight and systolic blood pressure regardless of baseline estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), when compared to placebo. Additionally, FARXIGA reduced urine albumin to creatinine ratio (UACR) in patients with a baseline UACR ≥30 mg/g when compared to placebo, including in patients with mild renal impairment (eGFR ≥60 to <90 mL/min/1.73m2). As seen in previous trials, the A1C lowering effects of FARXIGA® (dapagliflozin) decreased as renal function declined. FARXIGA should not be used in patients with eGFR <60 mL/min/1.73 m2.1
Hiddo Lambers Heerspink, Pharm.D., Ph.D., Clinical Pharmacologist in the Department of Clinical Pharmacy Pharmacology at the University Medical Center Groningen, the Netherlands and lead investigator of the study said: "Approximately 1 in 3 adults with diabetes has renal impairment. This study is important as it helps further the understanding of dapagliflozin in type 2 diabetes patients with varying degrees of renal impairment."2
FARXIGA is indicated as an adjunct to diet and exercise to improve glycemic control in adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus. It is not recommended for patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus or for the treatment of diabetic ketoacidosis. FARXIGA is not indicated for weight loss or the treatment of hypertension.3
The second analysis examined the effects of FARXIGA versus placebo in patients treated with potassium-sparing agents (Poster 1094-P). When co-administered with potassium-sparing agents, FARXIGA resulted in lower A1C, body weight and systolic blood pressure, with no evidence of increase in serum potassium.4
Jim McDermott, Head of Medical, US Medical Affairs, Diabetes, AstraZeneca said: "Physicians are often faced with difficult decisions on how to most effectively treat patients with type 2 diabetes with serious complications and comorbidities. For example, patients with kidney and cardiovascular disease are often being treated with concomitant medications, including potassium-sparing diuretics, to treat high blood pressure or heart failure. These analyses provide important insights and support the need for research into treating these patients."
The first analysis assessed more than 4,400 patients with type 2 diabetes (n=2,226 and 2,178 for FARXIGA and placebo groups, respectively) using pooled data from 11 Phase 3 clinical trials with varying degrees of renal function as measured by eGFR (eGFR ≥45 to <60; eGFR ≥60 to <90; eGFR ≥90 mL/min/1.73m2) over 24 weeks. Results showed a difference of -0.27%, -0.47% and -0.57% in A1C, -2.1, -1.8 and -2.3 kilograms in body weight, -4.3, -2.6 and -3.4 mmHg in systolic blood pressure and -38.3%, -23.3% and -16.1% in UACR with FARXIGA compared to placebo for patients with the lowest to highest eGFR, respectively. Adverse events occurred more frequently in patients with the lowest eGFR in both the FARXIGA and placebo groups. In patients treated with dapagliflozin with varying degrees of renal function (eGFR ≥45 to <60; eGFR ≥60 to <90; eGFR ≥90 mL/min/1.73m2) 68.3%, 58.3%, and 59.4% respectively reported at least one adverse event.1
The second analysis assessed more than 200 patients with type 2 diabetes treated with potassium-sparing agents (n=108 and 119 for FARXIGA and placebo groups, respectively) using pooled data from 14 Phase 2b/3 clinical trials of up to 24 weeks. Results showed a difference of -0.39% in A1C, -2.2 kg in body weight, -5.2 mmHg in systolic blood pressure, -3.2 mL/min/1.73m2 in eGFR, and -0.12 mEq/L in serum potassium with FARXIGA compared to placebo. Potassium levels ≥6 mEq/L during follow up were observed in two patients versus nine patients for the FARXIGA and placebo groups, respectively. The rate of adverse events was similar between the FARXIGA and placebo groups, including adverse events of renal impairment/failure (3.7% vs. 6.7%); hypotension/volume reduction (2.8% vs. 1.7%), and potassium ≥6 mEq/L (1.9% vs. 7.6%).4
Effects of Dapagliflozin on Cardiovascular Risk Factors at Varying Degrees of Renal Function (Poster 1095-P), and Safety and Efficacy of Dapagliflozin (DAPA) in Combination with Potassium (K)-sparing Agents (Poster 1094-P) will be presented during a poster session with a moderated discussion on June 12, 2016.
Important Safety Information For FARXIGA® (dapagliflozin)
- History of a serious hypersensitivity reaction to FARXIGA
- Severe renal impairment, end stage renal disease, or patients on dialysis
Warnings and Precautions
- Hypotension: FARXIGA causes intravascular volume contraction. Symptomatic hypotension can occur after initiating FARXIGA, particularly in patients with impaired renal function (eGFR <60 mL/min/1.73 m2), elderly patients, or patients on loop diuretics. Before initiating FARXIGA in patients with one or more of these characteristics, assess and correct volume status. After initiating therapy, monitor for signs and symptoms of hypotension.
- Ketoacidosis has been reported in patients with type 1 and type 2 diabetes receiving SGLT2 inhibitors, including FARXIGA. Assess patients who present with signs and symptoms of metabolic acidosis for ketoacidosis, regardless of blood glucose level. If suspected, discontinue FARXIGA, evaluate and treat promptly. Before initiating FARXIGA, consider risk factors for ketoacidosis. Patients on FARXIGA may require monitoring and temporary discontinuation of therapy in clinical situations known to predispose to ketoacidosis.
- Impairment in Renal Function: FARXIGA increases serum creatinine and decreases eGFR. Elderly patients and patients with impaired renal function may be more susceptible to these changes. Adverse reactions related to renal function can occur after initiating FARXIGA. Before initiating FARXIGA, evaluate renal function and monitor periodically thereafter. Discontinue FARXIGA when eGFR is persistently <60 mL/min/1.73 m2.
- Urosepsis and Pyelonephritis: Serious urinary tract infections have been reported with SGLT2 inhibitors, including FARXIGA. SGLT2 inhibitors increase the risk for urinary tract infections. Evaluate for signs and symptoms of urinary tract infections and treat promptly.
- Hypoglycemia with Concomitant Use with Insulin and Insulin Secretagogues: Insulin and insulin secretagogues are known to cause hypoglycemia. FARXIGA can increase the risk of hypoglycemia when combined with these agents. Consider a lower dose of insulin or the insulin secretagogue to reduce the risk of hypoglycemia when used in combination with FARXIGA.
- Genital Mycotic Infections: FARXIGA increases the risk of genital mycotic infections. Patients with a history of genital mycotic infections were more likely to develop genital mycotic infections. Monitor and treat appropriately.
- Increases in Low-Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol (LDL-C) occur with FARXIGA. After initiating FARXIGA, monitor LDL-C and treat per standard of care.
Bladder cancer: Across 22 clinical studies, newly diagnosed
cases of bladder cancer were reported in 0.17% of FARXIGA-treated
patients and 0.03% of placebo/comparator-treated patients. After
excluding patients in whom exposure to study drug was <1 year at the
time of diagnosis of bladder cancer, there were 4 cases with FARXIGA
and no cases with placebo/comparator. Bladder cancer risk factors and
hematuria (a potential indicator of pre-existing tumors) were balanced
between treatment arms at baseline. There were too few cases to
determine whether the emergence of these events is related to FARXIGA.
There are insufficient data to determine whether FARXIGA has an effect on pre-existing bladder tumors. FARXIGA should not be used in patients with active bladder cancer. Use with caution in patients with a prior history of bladder cancer.
- Macrovascular Outcomes: There have been no clinical studies establishing conclusive evidence of macrovascular risk reduction with FARXIGA or any other antidiabetic drug.
Adverse Reactions
- In a pool of 12 placebo-controlled studies, the most common adverse reactions (≥5%) associated with FARXIGA 5 mg, 10 mg, and placebo respectively were female genital mycotic infections (8.4% vs 6.9% vs 1.5%), nasopharyngitis (6.6% vs 6.3% vs 6.2%), and urinary tract infections (5.7% vs 4.3% vs 3.7%).
Use in Specific Populations
- Pregnant Women: There are no adequate and well-controlled studies of FARXIGA in pregnant women. Consider appropriate alternative therapies, especially during the second and third trimesters.
- Nursing Mothers: It is not known whether FARXIGA is excreted in human milk. Because of the potential for serious adverse reactions in nursing infants from FARXIGA, discontinue nursing or discontinue FARXIGA.
- Geriatric Use: A higher proportion of patients ≥65 years treated with FARXIGA had adverse reactions related to volume depletion and renal impairment or failure compared to patients treated with placebo. No FARXIGA dose change is recommended based on age.
Indication and Limitations of Use for FARXIGA
FARXIGA is indicated as an adjunct to diet and exercise to improve glycemic control in adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus.
FARXIGA is not recommended for patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus or for the treatment of diabetic ketoacidosis.

Reflexology & Reiki
Holistic treatments for a healthy life
Reflexology is a complementary therapy that involves the application of pressure to specific areas of the feet called reflexes. It is based on the premise that stimulation of reflexes creates a nerve pathway connecting with specific organs, glands, and systems of the body. Stimulating reflexes allows the body to achieve balance, adapt, strengthen, and regain homeostasis, which means that the organs, glands and systems in the body are all working together and at their best.
We recognize that many of the health issues and concerns that we experience are linked to nervous and physical tension. Reflexology is used primarily to relieve stress and produce deep therapeutic relaxation. By reducing stress and tension, reflexology improves blood and lymph circulation, strengthens the functioning of the immune system, improves assimilation of nutrition and elimination of toxins, and calms the nervous system. In these ways, reflexology facilitates the body's natural healing processes and thereby enhances the body's health and vitality.
In countries all over the world reflexology is quickly being embraced for its provision of enhanced health, profound relaxation and pleasure, coupled with its inherent simplicity and harmless nature.
Reiki is a natural hands-on healing method that originated in Japan and means universal life force energy. This non-physical healing energy is spiritually guided life force energy. Reiki works with the subtle vibrational energy field that surrounds and penetrates the physical body. The practice of Reiki guides this "Ki," or life force energy. This is a natural form of compassionate healing that assists body, mind and spirit in attaining its own highest level of wellness
The natural healing energy flows through the hands of the Reiki practitioner who acts as a channel to conduct and direct the energy to the client. Reiki is not a tool for the practitioner to guide and control, but rather the practitioner is a tool for the energy to move through. In reality, the practitioner is a conduit for the "Ki" that is all around us and is only helping the client access this energy.
Reiki strengthens and harmonizes the body systems, balancing the energies in the body to help reduce stress and promote relaxation. As well as the physical body, Reiki helps to heal at the emotional, mental and spiritual level. This non-invasive, completely benign healing technique is becoming more and more popular.
As western medicine continues to explore alternative methods of healing, Reiki is destined to play an important role as an accepted and valued healing practice. Reiki treatment is a supportive tool for use as a complement to conventional medicine, and is increasingly being offered in many hospitals, medical care and therapeutic settings.

Sponsors: Cariboo Regional District
Endorsed by the NCLGA and UBCM Memberships
WHEREAS many members of our society are affected by accessibility limitations;
AND WHEREAS communities who strive to make accessibility a priority are often unrecognized and unknown to those who might utilize them;:
THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the NCLGA and UBCM lobby the Ministry of Healthy Living and Sport to implement a Provincial Accessibility Capital designation similar to the Forest Capital of British Columbia designation administered by the Association of BC Forest Professionals, and to award that designation to a community or region within British Columbia on a two-year basis.
UBCM comments:
The UBCM membership has not previously considered a resolution requesting that the provincial government create a Provincial Accessibility Capital designation, similar to the Forest Capital of British Columbia designation by the Association of BC Forest Professionals.
For the Forest Capital program, the Association of BC Forest Professionals selects one community to be the Forest Capital of BC, in an effort to celebrate the economic, cultural, natural and historic contributions forests make to community life and the health of the province. The winning community carries the title for a full year.
UBCM is not aware of existing provincial accessibility awards in BC, however some local governments, such as Coquitlam, have offered their own accessibility awards to highlight local business and community initiatives aimed at improving accessibility.

Kratom is a blessing for us. It is a magical herb. Kratom is surprising us day by day with its new extraordinary effects. These unlimited effects are due to the unlimited strains of Kratom. Kratom has been divided into countless strains. Some are old and some has been introduced now. Each strain of Kratom has completely different properties from the other. The reason is that each strain of Kratom is grown in a different area. The nature possessed by Kratom strains depends upon the area and the soil where they are harvested. The regions that are blessed by the growth of Kratom include Malaysia, Indonesia, and Thailand.
Indonesia is rich in the growth of Kratom. The strains grown there are rich in minerals and have an effective nature. Just like other strains of Kratom, Indo Kratom is divided into three types; red, green and white. White Indo Kratom is excessively used due to its unmatchable energy as well as relaxing effects.
Origin of White Indo Kratom:
White Indo Kratom is excessively grown in the immeasurable island of Indonesia called Borneo. White Indo Kratom grown in Borneo is known as White Borneo Kratom. White Indo Kratom is also grown in another island of Indonesia called Sumatra. The White Indo Kratom has grown in this island is known as White Sumatra Kratom. Both White Indo Kratom, either grown in Borneo or Sumatra have very effective as well as diverse results.
Effects of White Indo Kratom:
The farmers of Indonesia use to take this Kratom for energizing themselves. This Kratom gives high energetic effects. It boosts up the energy on another level. White Indo Kratom assists us a lot in concentrating and giving full focus to our work. It increases our confidence level. It helps us to motivate our self. It gives the energy which is prolonged. It also helps us to get relief from anxiety and depression. White Indo Kratom also generates medium effects of relaxation.
The ideal dosage of White Indo Kratom:
Kratom is famous in giving best effects even at the low dose. If you are a beginner to use Kratom then you should especially be very much vigilant about the dose you are going to ingest of Kratom. The best dose to start up with is 1 – 2 grams. At this dose, you can enjoy the best effects of Kratom with facing any high effects. If you are a regular user of Kratom then you can go for medium dose as well. Medium dose includes 2 – 5 grams of Kratom. At this dose, you can feel concentrated and focused. You can heighten up your emotional level. The effects are not that much long-lasting at this dose. They last for about 3 hours. The high dose of Kratom includes 7 – 10 grams of it. This dose will give you feelings of relaxation. But as it has always been suggested that do not take Kratom at this dose. It will not be so good for your health.

Our companies have a long history of leading the industry. Today, adult tobacco consumers are increasingly seeking new options, including those that reduce risk, and their preferences are likely to continue to evolve at an increasing rate. They also want products that address social frictions like tobacco smoke and the odor and ash that comes with it.
That's why we're leveraging the resources across our companies, and through strategic investments, to offer the most diverse portfolio of products to satisfy evolving adult preferences and convert smokers to lower risk products.
The Role of Nicotine
Nicotine occurs naturally in tobacco plants. While nicotine is addictive, it's the exposure to smoke – not nicotine – that causes most tobacco-related disease. Smoke from the combustion of tobacco contains thousands of chemicals that cause the vast majority of harm from tobacco, including lung cancer, heart disease and emphysema.
Tobacco harm reduction is built on the idea that adult smokers who do not quit should be able to get nicotine from products that are less risky than combustible cigarettes.
Many smokers find nicotine enjoyable, which is why reduced-risk products need to provide a satisfactory nicotine experience. We recognize that comprehensive regulation of tobacco products is necessary to bring these kinds of products to market and let adult smokers know about them.
In 2000, Altria became the first and only company in the industry to support FDA regulation of tobacco products. We saw this as an important step to providing accurate and scientifically-grounded communications about reduced risk products to smokers.
Today, the FDA has regulatory authority over all tobacco products. And the FDA distinguishes between the harm associated with combustible versus non-combustible products.
A strong public health consensus has formed that not all tobacco products present the same risk. Public health authorities agree that there is a broad continuum of risk among tobacco products, with cigarettes at the highest end of that spectrum. This continuum recognizes that most of the harm caused by tobacco results from the burning of tobacco.
"A centerpiece of this comprehensive regulatory plan is acknowledging that nicotine, while highly addictive, is delivered through products on a continuum of risk. And it's the delivery mechanism – not the nicotine itself – that is truly the issue at-hand." - Scott Gottlieb, M.D., Former Commissioner of Food and Drugs
In September 2018, then FDA Commissioner Gottlieb reaffirmed the FDA's central principle that the primary cause of death and disease from tobacco use isn't the nicotine in these products, but the act of combustion, which releases harmful constituents into the body. Since then, the FDA has repeatedly affirmed its view that non-combustible, reduced-risk products may offer a promising opportunity to reduce the harm associated with tobacco use for adults who continue to use tobacco products.
According to data from the FDA's PATH study, over half of adult smokers would consider using a tobacco product if it had a reduced harm claim. This equates to about 22 million adult smokers who are interested in less harmful tobacco products, particularly if they receive truthful and accurate risk information.
Seeking Authorization to Communicate Reduced Harm Information
We can only compete in the marketplace with products authorized by the FDA. And we can only communicate reduced harm information if the FDA permits.
That's why we are seeking authorization from FDA to put truthful, accurate information about reduced-risk products in the hands of consumers so that they can make a choice that's right for them.
To date, we have:
- Submitted a Modified Risk Tobacco Product application (MRTPA) for Copenhagen Snuff.
- Supported Philip Morris International (PMI) on its MRTPA application for IQOS. Philip Morris USA has an exclusive agreement with PMI to commercialize IQOS in the United States.
We believe it is critically important that FDA take steps to foster the innovation of potentially reduced risk products. For tobacco harm reduction to be successful, a marketplace of FDA-authorized reduced-risk products must be in place, with more information about the relative risks of those products being communicated to adult smokers. The regulatory system should respect the rights of adults to make decisions based on accurate information. To make this a reality, FDA needs to establish clear foundational rules for bringing these new innovative products to market.

Yesterday I had one of those days. You know the sort I mean. Where shortly into it, you wish you had stayed in bed. You see, Boots had rung to say that my son's glasses were ready for collection so I mistakenly thought that I would have to go with him. Why? Because I had paid for them and had the receipt. We made arrangements via mobile to meet at the same place as last week and at the same time. 12.30pm outside the paper shop in the bus station.
As before, our bus was late. Five minutes this time but as it was raining cats and dogs, it seemed like an hour. Or two. Good job then that on taking our seats I realised that the driver had inadvertently left the heaters switched on. Hmm, good chance we might have dried out by the time we reach Halifax I thought to myself. Traffic wasn't as bad either. Still the road works going on near the train station (no sign of any workmen though) We limped into Halifax roughly ten minutes late.
No sign of son. Not a peep. What to do? Go on to Boots and see if he's sat waiting in there for us? Ring him on my mobile phone? Oh, wait a minute, I've left it at home! Again! Déjà Vu . Do I ever learn? Obviously not. Splashed our way onto Boots, narrowly getting our heads knocked off by other peoples brollies. Or our eyes poked out. Asked the assistants in the Optician area if he had been in to collect his glasses. No. Walked back to the bus station. Waited some more. Have you noticed how when your waiting for someone, other people give you strange looks? As if your up to no good?
Finally getting cheesed off at 1.00pm we decided to mosey on down to Burger King and get something to eat. The usual actually. K loves that Angry Whopper. Probably reflected the look on my face. Back up to Boots.
" He's been in and picked up his glasses!" the assistants informed me and K. " We told him you had been in looking for him!" Oh good! How nice I thought, so there was really no need whatsoever for us to get soaking wet through hanging around a dismal bus station like two wet blankets getting queer looks from just about everyone who passed us by. When I eventually arrived back home my mobile was sounding off. It was him of course.
"I was late Mum, got there about 1. 05pm. I must have just missed you and why didn't you have your mobile phone with you, that's twice now Mum!" No answer to that is there?

Scramble (JHS)
ALT: Kristina Shatz
Class/Grade/Language Level: JHS
Textbook and specific lesson: any
Goal: to help students with vocabulary identification memorization, and to practice grammar structures.
Preparation: list of words or sentences
Class time: adaptable
In this game words and sentences are mixed up to help students with vocabulary identification memorization,and to practice grammar structures utilizing practical,real-life sentence situations that reflect those presented in the new Horizons textbook.Activity is adaptable in the amount of time auailable,your only limit is hou many vocabulary woards you use and sentences you make.Students are split into groups each student takes a turn being the group's "voice" while other students are encouragd to help discover the connect answer.
Example: orom=room atonnium=mountain tocpmeur=computer; must in you not the run hospital = You must not run in the hospital.
Hints are occasionally given when a particular word or sentence proves difficult for the students to slove.I use a blackboard for this activity as it providers me with the ability to choose more difficult or easier words depending on the class's ability to slove the scrambles.I recommend preparing as many words as possible so as to not become stuck with time to spare and no scrambles to provide.

Your job interview is your opportunity to set yourself apart from equally qualified candidates and establish your personality and cultural fit with a company. Your resume has gotten you this far. Now, you need to step beyond the skills and qualifications outlined there and really shine.
It all comes down to communication. According to one recent study, verbal communication was the number-one skill valued by employers as they evaluated recent college graduates. At any career level, being well spoken is the best way to gain a competitive edge.
So, polish your communication skills and practice for your interview. Be prepared to:
Convey your enthusiasm.
Make your excitement about the position obvious. Companies want to hire people who are eager to work for them.
- Your passion sets you apart as someone who is not simply looking for a job, but is building their career. When you talk about what truly drives you, your passion shines through. Address this, especially when you respond to such questions as "Why do you want this job?" and "What do you like to do outside of work?"
Avoid generic responses.
Don't force your interviewers to dig for the answers they want. Be prepared with specific examples from your past experience that quantify your value. Use numbers and statistics to illustrate successful results.
- Candidates with strong communication skills can talk about their past achievements in precise, confident terms. Before your interview, anticipate which questions you may be asked. Rehearse your answers, so you can deliver them seamlessly and naturally, without sounding rehearsed.
Be growth oriented.
Express your desire to grow within a position for your own good and the good of the company – not necessarily to climb the ladder.
Be yourself.

In Walking With Beauty, The Art and Life of Gerard Curtis Delano, Richard G. Bowman wrote, "Delano preferred personal encounters and on-site sketches over photography, and often painted in a frenzy of activity immediately after returning from such trips while his impressions were still vivid and fresh. He spoke and wrote about the Navajo with the same poetic simplicity and directness that were apparent in his paintings.
"In the Navajo, he saw dignity and beauty, a people in harmony with their land. They became his greatest source of influence, beginning with his first trip to Navajo land in 1943. He also probably painted Canyon de Chelly more than any other painter. During his life he became known as the painter of the Navajo, not by rendering exact detail and portraiture as later painters did, but by capturing the people in the context of their country. Land, sky, and earth were made simple, grand, and colorful: 'designed realism.'"

How to use Microsoft Excel Online in Outlook
Nowadays, internet users have the possibility and advantage to use plenty of online services, covering almost any function and product of interest for people across the world. For example, if we need a calendar, a calculator, and a chatting platform and of course; email services, these are all available online and can be used without the need of downloading any other resources or related software into the device.
That is why; a company as Microsoft with great relevance in technological and software business is moving to this new paradigm of use, by redesigning all of its service platforms to have an available and functional online version for all the users. So, Outlook Mail, Skype, OneDrive, Tasks, Photos Sway and software included in the Office suite as Word, PowerPoint, OneNote and others are there to be used by anyone.
In order to take advantage of these service platform offered by Microsoft, we just need to create an Outlook or Microsoft account, functioning in first instance as an email product that opens the door for a more useful and powerful conjoined set of instruments and software online to enjoy. In relation to this, in this tutorial we will be speaking about how to use Microsoft Excel Online in Outlook, as a very powerful version of this financial program to be used.
Opening Excel Online through Outlook
To begin with, in order to take advantage of the different functions provided by Excel Online, we need to be logged in with our Outlook account in the our preferred browser. To do so, we just have to enter the URL address https://outlook.live.com/ and provide the platform with proper email address and password, and by doing so we will be in the Outlook´s homepage.
In this page we can see our inbox and email content, however from this home screen we also have the opportunity to access the different services related and provided by Microsoft, where we will be able to open Excel Online at just one click.
First, let us find de "Application" button placed at the top left of the home screen with a 9 dot icon, exactly next to the Outlook home button. So, by clicking on this option a menu will get displayed and show all the different services and products you can use, such as Skype, OneDrive and others.
Included in this list there is the Excel icon for you to find it, being placed with the other online versions of Word, PowerPoint and OneNote. Just click on it and at once another page will be opened showing you Excel as if it were the installable program on Windows.
Choosing templates to use on Excel Online and opening locally or cloud stored workbooks
Being in the Excel Online platform as another page or tab opened in the browser you are using, at first the service shows you some sort of home screen where you can select the templates to use, in case you require creating a workbook with specific purpose and design, as well as uploading work and projects stored locally or in cloud services.
At the left we have the recent panel where are shown all the files opened in date order. Also at the bottom of this panel we can see the options to open files from cloud services like OneDrive and DropBox. To do so, we just have to click in the cloud service where the document is saved, select it and it will get opened.
On the other hand, at the left of the screen we have the different templates available for using and creating workbooks with distinct functions and intentions. For example, we can use the traditional "New Blank Workbook" to use an empty template for adding customizable cells, equations and general layout. To select the template we just click on it and Excel will get opened.
Although, if we scroll down a little bit we will be able to see other useful templates that can help us to track tasks, manage personal money and expenses and establish family budgets. As in the case explained earlier, we just have to click on the wanted template to open it.
In this section of the home screen we can also upload workbooks that are stored locally in our computer or device and we want to still editing them on the go, thanks to possibilities provided by Excel Online. To open such file, just click in "Upload a Workbook" as a button placed at the top right.
Using Excel Online: different options to edit and create workbooks
As it happens with the other Office products provided by Microsoft, Excel Online can be used by six main tabs that give the users the different options to perform, regarding on what they want to do in their workbook.
First of all we have the "File" main tab from where you can see the different saving and printing options, as well as allowing the user to obtain help about using the service, sharing the workbooks and creating new ones. In the same way, at the left of the displayed menu we can see the recent documents and open OneDrive.
Continuing with the "Home" main tab, in this one we have the options related to paragraphs with fonts and effects, alignment with bullets and numbering, tables; the inserting of cells and how to give them format, as well as using editing options as AutoSum.
Moving to the "Insert" main tab, this one can be considered ad one of the most important for Excel, since from it we can choose options to apply mathematical operations and equations to calculate information and even creating visual graphics.
In this case, the first button corresponding to "Functions" on this tab will apply math operation to the cells selected, such as Sum, Average, Max, Account, Min, If and others depending on the purpose of the sheet in the workbook.
Also, in this tab the user can insert surveys, tables, PivotTables, pictures, shapes, charts that can include graphics, bars, lines, areas, scatters, statistical, radars, funnel and more.
In the fourth main tab "Data we can refresh selected and all connections, calculate workbook, sort ascending or descending, as well as apply filters and perform data validations.
And last but not least, by using the main tabs "Review" and "View" we can check our workbook in terms of different functions as accessibility and adding comments, at least in the first main tab called. Regarding the second one, in this tab the user can establish parameters of reading and viewing on the document, including headings and gridlines that are useful in slideshows with projectors and video beams.

WASHINGTON — President Bush, seeking to one-up Congress' Democratic majority in a showdown over the Iraq war, suggested Saturday that lawmakers should be ashamed that they added non-war items to an Iraq spending bill.
"I like peanuts as much as the next guy, but I believe the security of our troops should come before the security of our peanut crop," Bush said in his weekly radio address, referring to a provision in the war funding legislation that earmarks $74 million for secure peanut storage.
The Senate has passed a bill calling for most U.S. combat troops to be out of Iraq by March 31, 2008, while the House version demands a September 2008 withdrawal. In both houses, the timelines are attached to legislation providing money to fund military operations in Iraq and Afghanistan this year.
Bush repeated his promise to veto the bills if the timelines stay in — and if the unrelated earmarks stay in as well — because they "undercut our troops in the field."
"Each bill would impose restrictive conditions on our military commanders," the president said. "Each bill would also set an arbitrary deadline for surrender and withdrawal in Iraq, and I believe that would have disastrous consequences for our safety here at home."
'Congress must side with the troops'
House and Senate negotiators will have to reconcile the different versions, and lawmakers left town for a two-week spring break without doing so. Earlier Friday, the White House, claiming that money for troops is already beginning to run out, complained that the House should have at least named its negotiators before leaving.
But Democrats have said that any blame for shorting troops and their families of what they need will fall at Bush's feet if he vetoes a spending bill Congress sends him. "It's his responsibility," said Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev.
In the Democrats' weekly radio address, a veteran of the Iraq war asked Bush to resist the urge to veto the legislation.
"Both houses of Congress have done their jobs and will soon finish a bill that will provide for the troops," retired Marine Lt. Col. Andrew Horne said Saturday. "When they're done, the only person who could keep funds from reaching troops would be the president."
Horne, who ran unsuccessfully for a Kentucky congressional seat in 2006, added: "If the president vetoes this bill because he doesn't want to formally demonstrate progress in Iraq, never in the history of war would there be a more blatant example of a commander in chief undermining the troops. There is absolutely no excuse for the president to withhold funding for the troops, and if he does exercise a veto, Congress must side with the troops and override it."
'Democrats have revealed their true intentions'
In his radio address, Bush took aim at budget blueprints approved recently by the Democratic-controlled Congress.
Other political news of note
Animated Boehner: 'There's nothing complex about the Keystone Pipeline!'
House Speaker John Boehner became animated Tuesday over the proposed Keystone Pipeline, castigating the Obama administration for not having approved the project yet.
- Budget deficits shrinking but set to grow after 2015
- Senate readies another volley on unemployment aid
- Obama faces Syria standstill
- Fluke files to run in California
- Animated Boehner: 'There's nothing complex about the Keystone Pipeline!'
The House plan promises a big surplus in five years by allowing tax cuts passed in the president's first term to expire. It awards spending increases next year to both the Pentagon and domestic programs, but it defers difficult decisions about unsustainable growth in federal benefit programs such as Medicare.
The Senate blueprint is similar but would not generate surpluses since it assumes lawmakers will renew the most popular of the tax cuts due to expire at the end of 2010.
Bush equates letting the cuts expire to a tax increase. He said Saturday the blow would amount to nearly $400 billion over five years — what he said would be "the largest tax increase in our nation's history."
"Whether you have a family, work for a living, own a business or are simply struggling to get by on a low income, the Democrats want to raise your taxes," the president said. "With their budgets, the Democrats have revealed their true intentions."

Valentina was born by chance in May 1965, appearing as a secondary character in the third issue of the cartoon monthly Linus. But her minor role, as the girlfriend of art critic and amateur sleuth Philip Rembrandt - also known as Neutron because of his capacity to freeze people with his penetrating gaze - was soon transformed to overshadow that of the original protagonist.
Her pudding-bowl haircut, sinuous body, sensuous lips and "most beautiful bottom in the world" became a symbol of subtle eroticism at a time when Italian society was coming to terms with a new era of sexual liberation. Her uninhibited fantasies derived from the world of dreams and psychoanalysis, but she was firmly anchored in the flesh, and in contemporary Italian reality. Her style captured the spirit of the Milan fashion world two decades before it fully flowered.
Valentina Rosselli was named after the resistance heroes Nello and Carlo Rosselli; she was (ostensibly) born in 1942, married to the colourless Rembrandt and had a child named Mattia. She lived in Milan's Via De Amicis, at the same address as Crepax, and her apartment was full of the books that animated the intellectual life of Crepax and his circle.
Unusually for a cartoon heroine, she showed signs of ageing, before being summarily dumped by her author in 1995. "When I was a kid, I used to hate the fact that cartoon characters never grew old," Crepax explained.
Inspired by the silent movie actor Louise Brooks, and by Crepax's own wife, Luisa, Valentina presented something of a dilemma for Italian feminists. They approved of her sexual emancipation and Trotskyite politics, but were less taken by her fantasies and the speed with which she peeled off her clothes.
The confusion between her roles as sexual actor and sex object left many feeling uneasy. For the psychologist Silvia Vegetti Finzi, she represented a "missed emancipation", achieving parity with men but then squandering it in a passive acceptance of male desire.
Graziano Frediani, a biographer of Crepax, described Valentina as a modern-day Madame Bovary, free to live out her dreams and obsessions. Crepax was an innovator in his art, Frediani said, introducing alternatives to the traditional filmstrip cartoon format and inserting boxes with close-ups of details - the cartoon equivalent of the zoom lens.
Guido Crepas, who assumed the pen-name Crepax, was born in Milan of a Venetian family. His father was a cellist at La Scala. He began working as a graphic artist while studying architecture at Milan University, where he graduated in 1958. His design work included advertising posters, record sleeves - among them Domenico Modugno's hit Volare - and book covers. His publicity campaign for Shell Oil won him a prize in 1957.
Influenced by the optical art movement in Milan, and a lover of cinema and jazz, Crepax found his vocation with the enigmatic figure of Valentina. The strip sold successfully in France, Spain, Germany, Japan and the United States. Crepax's damsels in distress pushed back the frontiers of taste but rarely lapsed into vulgarity. "I have drawn whips, chains and bonds of all kinds," he said. "But I hate violence, lack of respect for oneself or for others, and all forms of excess. There is never a single drop of blood."
Crepax created a series of lesser known female characters - Belinda, Bianca and Anita among them - and illustrated such classics of erotic fiction as De Sade's Justine and Pauline Reage's Story Of O. Valentina was twice adapted for the screen: in the 1973 Franco-Italian production Baba Yaga, and as a television series, starring the American actor Demetra Hampton. Both were a disappointment for her author.
He is survived by his wife and three children.
· Guido Crepax, cartoonist, born July 15 1933; died July 31 2003
