Google takes its first 100 percent self-drive car to the streets• http://www.gizmag.com, By Bridget Borgobello
The prototype accommodates for two passengers and is missing quite a few of the features you'd expect to see in a standard car. With no need for a steering wheel, mirrors or braking and accelerating pedals, the car comes fully equipped with special software and sensors that feed information into an onboard computer, which then drives the car.
Google has been experimenting with autonomous driving technology since 2010, which allows cars to drive themselves. In the past the company has experimented with retrofitting ordinary cars with video cameras and radar sensors, linked to a detailed mapping system, which allows the car to navigate through urban streets and traffic without the assistance of a driver. Now the first completely new build self-driving prototype has been developed.

Youth Detroit Mission Trip
THANK YOU to everyone who made this trip a success! We were not only able to serve with MACC, but we also donated equipment to kickstart their MACC Sports Volleyball Ministry, and we were able to donate $1,000 to MACC's General Fund. Thanks for your prayers and support and to all our team members who served!
MACC Development. MACC is a gospel-centered organization with a mission to "seek the holistic revitalization of Detroit's 48214 community, block by block, neighbor by neighbor."
Why Detroit? God is "making all things new" through his Son Jesus Christ (Rev. 21:5). Detroit once had a strong economy and thriving neighborhoods but is now a place of great need. We partnered with MACC to bring hope to a once flourishing city through the power of the gospel.
What did we do? Whatever MACC leaders asked, including sports ministry, children's literacy, neighborhood beautification, working on homes for the poor, working on the MACC building project, and more. We also worshipped with Mack Avenue Community Church, a partner of MACC Development. And we learned from MACC leaders and volunteers about the theology of poverty and how God uses his people to transform communities.
It was a church-wide effort! While only 12 went, this was a church-wide effort (including friends and family). We needed financial support, encouragement, and prayer for our team and for the people we served in Detroit's 48214 community. Each team member had to raise $425. Any excess amount raised was given as a gift to MACC Development and VBCC Youth Ministry, so we had set a goal of $6,500. Thanks so much for your support and prayers!
Dates: August 5-11.
Cost: $425 per person (including leaders).
Transportation: We drove there in two vans - about 11 hours.
Lodging: We stayed in the MACC Building - 7900 Mack Ave, Detroit, MI 48214.

Since Jim Larkin first started working, he knew he would be able to help the union. He tried hard to ensure he was doing everything right with the union because of the way he felt it was important. It had done a lot of things for him, so he wanted a chance to give back.
This was a part of the opportunities he felt were important in his own life. It was also what made it easier for him to try and do different things while he was making things right for the union. Read more: James Larkin | Biography
One problem that arose was revolving around the parties he was supportive of. He didn't know the right way to support opinions without causing major problems for the people who were also trying to make the world a better place.
Jim Larkin tried his best to show people what they could do to make things better on their own and many people saw that as a problem. They didn't want him to threaten them in a way that would make things harder on them. He posed a threat because he could give the power back to the people.
While he was protesting in Dublin, he learned about some of the issues that were going on in the United States. One of the biggest problems was he was trying to change the way things were going for different people. Learn more about James Larkin: http://www.rte.ie/centuryireland/index.php/articles/jim-larkin-released-from-prison
It was a major problem in that time, and Jim Larkin wanted to do something about it. He was sure he would be able to help so he went to the United States to try and protest the problems going on around the world.
The problem that came, though, was Jim Larkin did not protest in the right way. He was struggling to ensure things were going the right way in the United States and got into some trouble while there.
After that, he returned to Dublin. He continued to work to help the unions there so he could show other people the options they had.
This is what allowed him the chance to make things better for other people. It also gave him the chance to make Ireland a better place no matter what was going on for other people.
Jim Larkin did what he could to improve the unions and a lot of the work is still in use in Ireland today because of the way he did it.

New Delhi, Aug 24 (IANS) Union Law Minister Ravi Shankar Prasad on Thursday rejected suggestions that the Supreme Court verdict on privacy was a setback and said the Modi government has viewed the right to privacy as a fundamental right.
Addressing a press conference here after the Supreme Court held that the right to privacy is a fundamental right and an integral part of the right to life and liberty, Prasad said Finance Minister Arun Jaitley had articulated the government's view on the right to privacy while moving the Aadhaar bill for passage in Parliament in 2016.
He attacked the Congress for accusing the government of curbing individual rights and said the opposition party had not enacted any legislation regarding getting information under the Aadhaar framework.
"The government clearly saw the right of privacy as a fundamental right," Prasad said.
Asked if it was a setback, Prasad said "Not the least".
"…Whether it was Arun Jaitley's observation or Attorney General's arguments, both have been upheld by the court," he said.
"The government welcomes the view of the Supreme Court, which is consistent with all the necessary safeguards that the government has been ensuring in its legislative proposals which had been approved by Parliament," Prasad said.
He said Jaitley while moving the Aadhaar Bill had clearly stated "Is privacy a fundamental right or not? The present Bill pre-supposes and is based on the premise and that it is too late in date to contend that privacy is not a fundamental right".
"So, I do accept that probably privacy is a fundamental right. Now, where do you fit privacy as a fundamental right? It is contended and broadly it is now accepted that privacy is a part of the individual liberty. So when Article 21 says, no person shall be deprived of his Right to Life and Liberty without procedure established by law, then let us assume that privacy is a part of liberty and no person shall be deprived of his privacy without procedure as established by law," Prasad said quoting Jaitley.
He said the right to privacy was not an absolute right and was subject to reasonable restrictions as applicable to the right to liberty, freedom and free speech.
The Minister said the essence of the apex court judgment is a "wider affirmation" of the remarks made by Jaitley.
Prasad, who is also IT and Communications Minister, said the government was keen on robust data protection laws and has appointed an expert committee to suggest a draft Data Protection Bill and to identify key data protection issues.
"Robust data protection regime is needed to balance individual interests and state interests," he said.
Attacking the Congress, Prasad said the previous UPA government was seeking data under Aadhaar without formulating a law and the National Democratic Alliance government had brought the legislation after coming to power.
Prasad said the government cannot give permission for release of data except in compelling circumstances for which there is a strict laid down procedure.
"The Congress has been attacking us from morning. The Left has also joined it. What has been the Congress record in protection of individual liberty," Prasad asked.
He said individual liberty and media freedom had been severely curtailed during the internal Emergency imposed by the Congress in 1975.
Prasad also referred to Congress Vice President Rahul Gandhi's remarks that the apex court decision marks a major blow to fascist forces and said the Congress leader does not do his homework properly.
He said about 30 crore Jan Dhan accounts have been opened which have been linked to Aadhaar and also mobile numbers.
Prasad said the poor were getting subsidies directly in their account and a saving of about Rs 57,000 crore had been made over the last three years. He said the amount used to be pocketed by middle men. "The poor are very happy with this as the (subsidy) amount is directly going to their account."
Asked about the impact of the judgment on section 377 of IPC, which criminalises gay sex, Prasad said he will speak on the issue in due course.

Stephen Atkins . Do click on his name to go to his website and have a taste - mind you it is only a "taste" - of his great voice and songs.
His songs are played on local radio stations at different times and his goes on tour, speaking and singing messages in song with accompanying Power Point images to churches big -and small like us - as well as many other venues. He presents the news of our Christ of the Cross so very, very well.
For some reason, over the years songs have always ministered to me personally in very special ways. Okay, perhaps it is my creative nature that God uses to create stories, perhaps it is the fact when we were growing up we had a piano in our house. The piano had belonged to my grandparents but neither Mum nor Dad could play it. Living on a farm a long way from music teachers in the city, the only way I could learn to play was work out for myself what the notes on the music meant. The first music I ever played was the old hymn, "Throw out the lifeline across the dark sea..." I only realised years later that it sounded "right" when my one finger played it because it had neither sharps nor flats and was all played on those beautiful white ivory keys. But the words of many, many old songs and hymns from those days are still deep within me.
What a feast of music and song we enjoyed first of all at a dinner concert on the Friday evening, then a concert Saturday and a "musical" service with challenging talks on Sunday.
I've been so busy these last weeks preparing for speaking appointments at the Word Writers Fair next Saturday in Queensland, reading manuscripts ready to tutor writers of them at a mentorship programme organised by Omega Writers . Then of course, there is my talk too at the Toowoomba Library at 10am on Saturday, November 13th.
This is going to be very much a "working holiday." When my first book was published, little did I dream how God would open doors as He has these past years. With all my "busyness" lately, I really needed to be reminded that God IS in control, and what He has done and continues to do in my life! How thankful I am that from a very young age I started to get to know the God and Father who loves me, who continues to "raise me up, set me on mountains."
Do go to Stephen Atkins website. One of his songs starts playing straight away. He is also on Facebook and I have just become one of his "friends" there.
If you too can share incidents when God blesses you through praise and worship songs, do tell us about it by commenting here.

1. Let's start simple. Perhaps some re-decorating would help?
2. The ol' party balloon fill-up trick might bring you some joy.
3. Find a use for all those unused sticky notes!
4. Perhaps putting your origami skills to work could distract you for a bit?
5. Or getting creative with those paper clips could.
6. Still yawning? Maybe try heading outside to give your mate's car a new look.
7. Pass a few minutes watching your colleague trying to make a phone call from their bread phone.
8. Or trying to type up an e-mail from their newly sprouted keyboard.
9. A quick game of bowling would perhaps perk you up?
10. Have a laugh and try spooking your colleagues.
11. Really, really spooking them.
12. And when all else fails: Cage time!
If none of these work, don't despair. Try Sky Sports Fantasy Football, the only true cure for workplace boredom.

One of the things that I love about blogs, is that I get to see how real people overcome the obstacle of working within the parameters of a budget to achieve the look that they really want. Rather than just giving up or settling for less, they rise to the challenge and come up with their own affordable alternatives.
This was the case with Carmella, who writes so beautifully on her blog, Assortment, about living in a 665 square foot cabin that she shares with her three boys, husband and dog. Oh, in a 665 square foot cabin that she designed, no less.
Elizabeth from The Mustard Ceiling blog, was also making over her Clovis, NM, kitchen on a budget.
They used their existing laminate countertops as a template to cut the oak doors, sanded them down and stained them a darker color. Repurposed solid wood doors turned into countertops for just $100.00. Genius. You can read Elizabeth's tutorial here.
Linn and her husband over at, The Home Project, wanted stainless steel countertops, but weren't about to plunk down the $3,000.00 estimate they got to have them professionally installed.
Because they weren't afraid to try something new and and do the work themselves, these creative ladies were able to get the kitchen countertops of their dreams and all within their budget. Inspiring.

South Florida politics were jolted on Tuesday after reports emerged that Donna Shalala, the former secretary of Health and Human Services in Bill Clinton's Cabinet who also led the University of Miami, might run for Congress.
Politico and the Miami Herald reported that Shalala is a possible candidate for the seat currently held by retiring Republican Congresswoman Ileana Ros-Lehtinen. With Ros-Lehtinen bowing out, this is considered by most political observers to be a prime opportunity for Democrats to flip a seat currently held by a Republican.
Now 76, Shalala has been a leading figure in higher education and politics for more than three and a half decades. She led Hunter College in New York City during the 1980s before moving on to serve as chancellor of the University of Wisconsin and to lead the Children's Defense Fund. Clinton chose her to serve at HHS during his two terms as president. In 2001, Shalala was named president of the University of Miami, a post she held in 2015. Since then, she has led the Clinton Foundation.
If she enters the race, Shalala would join a crowded field of Democrats looking to flip the seat. The current field of Democrats running for the seat include former Judge Mary Barzee Flores, state Rep. David Richardson, state Sen. Jose Javier Rodriguez, Miami Beach City Commissioner Kristen Rosen Gonzalez and Miami City Commissioner Ken Russell.
If Shalala enters the race, there could be a domino effect as some of the current field could turn their attention to other congressional seats in South Florida, namely the ones currently held by Republicans Carlos Curbelo and Mario Diaz-Balart. That was a point Eric Jotkoff, a former spokesman for the Florida Democratic Party, brought up to Politico.
"Donna Shalala is somebody who's a civic and community leader in Miami-Dade and but she's also a national leader on issues from healthcare to education and so much more," Jotkoff told Politico. "Democrats would be wise to make sure we have Democrats running not just for Ileana Ros-Lehtinen's seat, but against Carlos Curbelo and Mario Diaz-Balart."
While his district is considered a toss-up, Curbelo hasn't drawn an impressive array of opponents so far. As of now, Debbie Mucarsel-Powell, who lost to Republican state Sen. Anitere Flores by 8.5 percent in 2016, is the favorite for the Democratic nomination to challenge Curbelo. Diaz-Balart seems even more secure with his only opponent being Democrat Alina Valdes who he blew out by more than 20 percent back in 2016. It's certainly possible that some of the current Democrats looking to flip Ros-Lehtinen's seat could scurry off to other districts if Shalala decides to run.
There are some familiar names on the Republican side looking to defend Ros-Lehtinen's seat including Bruno Barreiro who served in the state House and on the Miami-Dade County Commission and Bettina Rodriguez-Aguilera who served on the Doral City Council. However, there have also been reports that the GOP is willing to concede the seat and focus on other districts as it looks to keep its majority in the House.
If Shalala runs for Ros-Lehtinen's seat--and that's still an if--the impact could be felt outside the district. Shalala would also be far more prominent than your usual congressional freshman, even if Democrats run the table and flip the House in November. With a competitive Senate race shaping up between Bill Nelson and Rick Scott and an open gubernatorial contest, Florida will, once again, be one of the nation's chief political battlegrounds this year. Shalala running will certainly add to the drama.

text:
Epigenetic studies are burgeoning; these genetic mechanisms that are external to direct DNA/RNA encoding and expression are being intensively studied, particularly how environmental factors can stimulate methylation and acetylation of bases of DNA or histone proteins, and how this affects expression or repression of specific gene activity.
In particular, behavioral epigenetics studies the brain for epigenetic changes following exposure to specific behavior. The old Biblical idea of the father's sins being visited on the son, or the ideas of the heavy influence of childhood experience on subsequent adult behavior now have some possible molecular genetical explanations via an epigenetic mechanism. Some of your grandma's experiences might produce methylation/acetylation of the DNA of specific cell types, in specific regions of the brain, and might persist in grandma, producing a specific and repeated behavior in grandma, and this repeated behavior then effects the behavior of her children, such behavior producing methylation or acetylation of the DNA of specific cell types, and might persist in grandma's offspring, producing a specific and repeated behavior in grandma's offspring, and this repeated behavior then effects the behavior of their children, and so on.
This has been described as a possible mechanism for the nurture side of behavioral influence, something quite new in molecular genetics, which prior to epigenetic studies only provided support for the nature part of the argument (you inherit your DNA, with its code for biological specificity, from your ancestors).
However, suggestions that 'grandma's experiences leave epigenetic marks on your genes' would seem to overstate the case. The verb leave proves to be a critically poor choice, as it suggests that from grandma, through the intermediary of one of your parents, you received DNA that was already specifically methylated / acetylated via her experiences. There is as yet no direct connection between the methylation/acetylation of DNA in somatic cells, and the transmission of these specific methylation/acetylation modifications to the germ cells (sperm or egg) of the organism in question, something that would have to happen if grandma were to leave them for you.
How would such DNA modification be inherited through ordinary germ cell DNA replication? Lamarck postulated that behavior could modify an organism in such a way that the new behavior could be passed on to subsequent generations. Biological science has found no support for this argument in the past, and much support for natural selection of existing genes in the gene pool, with gene variation coming from various mechanisms.
The nascent field of epigenetics provides some support for Lamarckism, that there appears to be some mechanism for passing on certain environmentally influenced genetic changes, but their is no evidence that this mechanism operates through germ cell replication of DNA, and in fact it would appear that without the same specific environmental trigger, the epigenetic modifications disappear, and with it, any future inheritance. This idea is controversial, and as yet there is only tantalizing hints that such a thing might be true. Some evidence points away from such a conclusion: As part of meiosis, the process of generating new germ cells in eukaryotic organisms, chromatin (DNA and their histone backbone) is entirely wiped clean of the methyl and acetyl groups added by epigenetic modification.
Complicating this idea is that the current model of genetic expression could just as well explain these phenomena. Epigenetic methylation/acetylation attaches acetal or methyl groups to DNA or histone proteins to either turn on expression of a gene or turn it off, and thus is part of DNA-driven regulation of genetic expression. This methylation/acetylation is controlled by enzymes, which themselves are coded for in an organism's DNA.
lac operon. Top: The gene is turned off. There is no lactose to inhibit the repressor, so the repressor binds to the operator, which obstructs the RNA polymerase from binding to the promoter and making lactase. Bottom: The gene is turned on. Lactose is inhibiting the repressor, allowing the RNA polymerase to bind with the promoter, and express the genes, which synthesize lactase. Eventually, the lactase will digest all of the lactose, until there is none to bind to the repressor. The repressor will then bind to the operator, stopping the manufacture of lactase.. Attrib: T A RAJU, CC-BY-SA-4.0.
It has been clear since the Monod-Jacob lac operon model of genetic regulation was demonstrated in the early 1960's that environmental influences are often a part of the control of genetic expression. In the case of the lac operon, the presence of lactose sugar in the environment of E. coli bacteria stimulates the construction of the enzyme lactase, which catalyzes the breakdown of the lactose sugar, a disaccharide, into two mono-saccharides. The presence of high titres of lactose unblocks the gene, the DNA sequence for lactase, allowing it to be transcribed into mRNA, and subsequently to be translated into the protein lactase by tRNAs and rRNAs. It may well be that methylation/acetylation of DNA or histones are mediated by similar environmental influences which at root are the final mode of control exhibited by regulatory enzymes, in a manner analogous of the lac operon.
This is a fascinating model for the control of gene expression, extending and complementing genetic control mechanisms like the lac operon. But the early suggestions of epigenetic inheritance, significantly different in character than Darwinian inheritance, is much more problematic, with some evidence pointing to epigenetic modification persisting across generations, but most pointing away from that. There is much debate in the genetic community about the possibility of epigenetic inheritance, and the consensus appears to be that it is not proven at this point. But all agree that the issue is not settled: Lamarck may be stirring, but has not yet been revived.

Higher CAO applications result in significant point increases in programmes at the Institute of Technology, Tralee
The Institute of Technology, Tralee has seen a 17% increase in this years CAO applications compared to 2009. The significant increase in demand has impacted on the cut-off points for the majority of the programmes offered by the Institute. Approximately 70% of programmes have increased in points. The increase in points ranged from 5 points to 75 points across Honours Degree Programmes, Ordinary Degree Programme and Higher Certificates.
Programmes related to the green economy proved to be very popular, as the BSc in Renewable Energy and Energy Management increased by 75 points. The BA (Honours) in Music Technology Degree increased by 65 points to 330 points.
The cut-off points for other ITT Honours Degree Programmes increased by between 5 and 25 points. Higher Certificate Programmes also saw an increase in points with the Higher Certificate in Engineering in Agricultural Engineering increasing by 55 points to 250 points.
In general there was an increase in cut-off points across Business, Science and Computing Programmes. There has been a reduction in points for programmes related to the construction industry, reflecting the current down-turn in the construction sector.
Dr. Oliver Murphy, College Registrar stated â¿¿that the suite of programmes offered by the Institute has been developed in consultation with industry. The graduates of these programmes are equipped with the knowledge and skills required to successfully engage in the knowledge economyâ¿. He also stated that students at the Institute may now progress on to a broad range of post graduate programmes at Masters and PhD Level across Science, Business and Engineering. Finally he wished those commencing their studies in September all the best in the future.

We just heard from our agency, they received our LOA (Letter of Acceptance) from China today! They are overnighting it to us and it will be in our hands tomorrow morning. We are overjoyed and so excited to have this step behind us. It has only been 34 days to receive this and that is much shorter than is normal. God is indeed working beyond our expectations once again.
Tomorrow when it arrives, we will sign the necessary forms and send them off to immigration. It usually takes about 20 days for their approval to arrive.
We hope to be in China in February or March to bring Brooklyn home.

Under the point "5. Proposal templates, evaluation forms and model grant agreements (MGA)" of the "Topic Conditions" area, the 1st stage proposal template is now embedded in the general template.
Topic DescriptionSpecific Challenge:
EU animal welfare legislation has evolved on the basis of scientific knowledge, improving the quality of animals' lives taking into account citizens' expectations and market demands. Nevertheless, a number of problems remain unsolved and the sector faces challenges to cope with them. Research is needed to further improve the management of animal welfare[1], by looking into new opportunities offered by technological developments, development of appropriate business models and linking animal welfare with other production parameters, including animal health and environmental performance.Scope:
A. [2018] Organic and low-input farming (RIA)
The special needs for animal welfare in organic and low-input production systems should be explored. Proposals will investigate how to meet organic production standards and take into account ethical and positive welfare approaches, with a focus at least on alternatives to mutilation. Such comprehensive approach should at least address issues related to mutilations, solutions for the killing of male day-old chicks and supply of robust slow-growing poultry breeds/products fit for outdoor rearing
B. [2019] Precision livestock farming (IA)
Proposals should address various stages of the terrestrial livestock production system (e.g. breeding, rearing, fattening, transport and slaughter). Proposals should build on state of the art animal welfare approaches to develop innovative technologies, while also considering the needs to reduce emissions of air pollutants from agriculture. Work on indicators should be pursued, especially on those with potential for inclusion in efficient and impactful animal welfare management models. Innovative business models should be developed in order to make it easier for consumers to identify and choose enhanced welfare-friendly products. Projects may cover development of early warning systems; increased monitoring of behaviour, stress or other animal-based welfare indicators and effects on production efficiency; development of related intervention mechanisms.
Proposals for both sub-topics A and B should fall under the concept of the multi-actor approach[2], ensuring that all the stakeholders, from farmers to consumers and regulators, will contribute to the building of new animal welfare approaches to further add value to EU foods of animal origin.
The Commission considers that proposals requesting a contribution from the EU of up to EUR 10 million (sub-topic A) and EUR 6 million (sub-topic B) would allow this specific challenge to be addressed appropriately. Nonetheless, this does not preclude the submission and selection of proposals requesting other amounts.Expected Impact:
: Provide the knowledge base for further improvements in animal welfare management and policy making. More specifically, activities will contribute to:
- a better understanding of animal welfare and associated animal behaviour;
- a broader range of animal welfare management strategies and tools;
- solving long-standing welfare related issues in organic farming, notably in poultry (sub-topic A);
- developing innovative approaches to measuring animal welfare at various stages of the production system (sub-topic B);
- increase the range of animal welfare management strategies and tools.
In the long run, projects shall increase the sustainability of the livestock sector by better responding to consumer demands and/or increasing competitiveness of the sector.Cross-cutting Priorities:
Socio-economic science and humanities

7. Open access must be granted to all scientific publications resulting from Horizon 2020 actions.
Where relevant, proposals should also provide information on how the participants will manage the research data generated and/or collected during the project, such as details on what types of data the project will generate, whether and how this data will be exploited or made accessible for verification and re-use, and how it will be curated and preserved.
Open access to research data
The Open Research Data Pilot has been extended to cover all Horizon 2020 topics for which the submission is opened on 26 July 2016 or later. Projects funded under this topic will therefore by default provide open access to the research data they generate, except if they decide to opt-out under the conditions described in Annex L of the Work Programme. Projects can opt-out at any stage, that is both before and after the grant signature.
Note that the evaluation phase proposals will not be evaluated more favourably because they plan to open or share their data, and will not be penalised for opting out.
Open research data sharing applies to the data needed to validate the results presented in scientific publications. Additionally, projects can choose to make other data available open access and need to describe their approach in a Data Management Plan.
Projects need to create a Data Management Plan (DMP), except if they opt-out of making their research data open access. A first version of the DMP must be provided as an early deliverable within six months of the project and should be updated during the project as appropriate. The Commission already provides guidance documents, including a template for DMPs. See the Online Manual.
Eligibility of costs: costs related to data management and data sharing are eligible for reimbursement during the project duration.
The legal requirements for projects participating in this pilot are in the article 29.3 of the Model Grant Agreement.

To determine the factors responsible for therapeutic failures in acute cholangitis, a series of 127patients was analyzed. There were 64 females and 63 males whose mean age was 57.2 years. Ninetyfour74.0% of these patients were clinically cured with initial measures, whereas 33 patients 26%failed initial therapy for an infectious reason. No differences were observed between the two groups inregard to age and gender. However, more patients in the group that failed had a malignant cause fortheir bile duct obstruction 72.7% vs. 42.6%, p < 0.01 and had a pretreatment positive blood culture45.5% vs. 13.8%, p < 0.01. Patients who failed had a higher mean total bilirubin level 9.7 mg-dl vs.5.5 mg-dl, p < 0.005 and more of them had a level greater than 2.2 mg-dl 97% vs. 69.9%, p < 0.001.Also, more bile cultures were initially positive 93.9% vs. 76.6%, p < 0.05 and more organisms wereisolated per culture 3.88 vs. 2.86, p < 0.03 in the patients who failed. In addition, more patients failedwho had two or more organisms in the bile 33% vs. 8.3%, p < 0.02. Patients in whom Candida, or anypanresistant organism was isolated also tended to fail. Multivariant analysis showed that malignancy,bacteremia, bilirubin ≥ 2.2 mg-dl, ≥ 2 organisms in the bile and a panresistant organism were the bestpredictors of treatment failure with a serum bilirubin level ≥ 2.2 mg-dl being the variable that increasesa patient's log-odds ratio of failure the greatest. In conclusion, patients with acute cholangitis whohave an increased chance to fail initial therapy can be identified, and treatment altered accordingly.

Prepare card by folding 81/2 x 51/2" white cardstock in half. Crease with a bone folder. Wad up a piece of wax paper into a ball. Straighten it out and wrinkle it again. Straighten it. The paper will now be nice and wrinkly. Pounce the ball into black ink and stamp edges of the card. Set aside.
Cut wallpaper 31/2" x 43/4". Mount on to 33/4" x 5" black cardstock. Mount onto center of card and set aside.
Cut Avery labels #02207 three across and four down. Stamp dragonfly 23.151.I page 170 directly on the labels using Vivid Tea Rose ink.
Stamp flower cluster 23.111.D page 130 in three corners using Vivid Tea Rose ink.
Lightly stipple over the stamped image using Vivid Tea Rose ink. Add a touch of black around the edges using your wax paper ball.
Cut black cardstock 23/4" square. Transfer the labels. The easiest way to attach the labels to the cardstock AND maintain the correct spacing between rows is to transfer one column at a time.
Carefully peel the backing away from the labels until they are half on the backing and half off. Stick the exposed edge of the labels onto the cardstock and slowly peel away the backing until the entire column is free from the backing and attached to the card. Press the labels down securely.
Repeat this process with each of the remaining rows taking care to maintain the same spacing between columns and keeping your rows even.
Trim close to labels. Round the corners. Set aside.
Stamp phrase 07.284.I page 172 on white cardstock using Vivid Tea Rose ink. Trim close. Round the corners. Sponge edges with Vivid Tea Rose ink. Apply mounts to the back.
Adhere image and phrase to the front of the card in a pleasing manner.
First taught this class on March 9, 2004.

Re: Polishing a Terzo ladder
I've got a hold of this stuff out of California call Adam's Polishes. Amongst all the car care products in their line there's an excellent metal cleaner package that will work on aluminium, stainless steel, chrome... You can get a chrome like finish on some aluminiums, perhaps that would help make your Terzo ladder take on a new glow.

Re: Polishing a Terzo ladder
Mother's makes a great aluminum polish. If the ladder has a machined finish (not cast) it should be nice and smooth, and a bit of mothers polish will shine it right up. Just look on youtube how to polish aluminum. It's not hard, just rub the polish on the aluminum with a cloth, or if you can do it with a polisher, it'll go even faster.

Know Your Rights. Intro To The Fair Debt Collections Practices Act (FDCPA)
If you're like many New Mexicans, you may have a debt collector contacting you about an old debt that you simply cannot pay. Having a debt collector call and write you can be confusing, embarrassing, and stressful. Thankfully, there may be some relief from these collectors. The Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA) is a federal law designed to regulate debt collectors and protect consumers from abusive, unfair, and deceptive collection practices.
Who Does the FDCPA Apply To?
Before learning about the protections of the FDCPA, it's important to understand a key concept: the FDCPA applies to debt collectors, not to the original creditor. For example, if you defaulted on a credit card from Bank ABC and Bank ABC is writing you or calling you trying to collect on that debt, then Bank ABC is not considered a debt collector under the FDCPA. The FDCPA doesn't apply to Bank ABC in this situation. That doesn't mean that Bank ABC can do whatever it wants in an attempt to collect the debt. Bank ABC still needs to follow state consumer laws. However, the FDCPA does not apply.
Under the FDCPA, debt collectors can be broken down into three main categories:
- Collection Agencies – businesses that are hired by the original creditor or a debt buyer for a flat fee or on a contingency basis to collect the debt;
- Collection Law Firms – like Collection Agencies, these are law firms that are hired by the original creditor or a debt buyer for a flat fee or on a contingent basis to collect the debt; and
- Debt Buyers – as discussed about, businesses that buy the debt from the original creditor, for pennies on the dollar, and then seek to collect the debt.
So, continuing with the example above, if Bank ABC sells the debt that you owe to We Collect Debts, LLC or if Bank ABC hires We Collect Debts, LLC to collect your debt, then We Collect Debts, LLC is required to follow the FDCPA.
Key Protections of FDCPA
A few of the key protections of the FDCPA are: 1) debt collectors are required to stop contacting you if you tell the collector to cease contact; 2) debt collectors have to send you a "validation notice" within five days of first contacting you and this notice must contain certain important information; 3) debt collectors cannot harass, abuse, lie or mislead you in an attempt to collect a debt; 4) debt collectors contact with third parties about the debt (meaning someone other than you, like family members or friends) is strictly regulated; and 5) you have the opportunity to dispute the debt with the debt collector.
As you can see, the FDCPA is a strong law for consumers. We will talk more about each of these protections in future blogs. For now though, here's a little advice and help about protection No. 1 highlighted above. If you are tired of getting calls and/or letters from a debt collector, then you can do something about it. Write the debt collector a "no contact" letter. You can use this link as a template for that letter: FDCPA Letter
Be sure to sign the letter, make a copy of it, and to send it via certified mail, return receipt requested. This is the mailing option where the person receiving the letter has to sign for it, so you'll have proof that the debt collector received your letter. If the debt collector keeps contacting you to collect the debt, then you may have a claim under the FDCPA.
Though the FDCPA prohibits debt collectors from contacting you after you tell them not to, it's important to note that there are debt collectors out there that don't follow the law and will simply ignore your request. Treinen Law Office has found that there are many debt collectors who don't even attempt to follow the FDCPA. These debt collectors threaten to arrest consumers, claim that they work for some kind of state or federal agency, aren't open and honest about the name of their company, and generally try to threaten and scare consumers into paying a debt. These types of collection practices are outrageous. The debt collectors that use them are nothing more than shakedown artists and they are unlikely to respect a "no contact" letter. Often times these debt collectors are nothing more than shadow companies, illegitimate businesses that spring up and disappear quickly in an effort to evade being hauled into court for FDCPA violations.
If a debt collector is being abusive, trying to pressure you into paying immediately by threatening you, or if the debt collector isn't being open and honest about the name of their company, do not pay them. Be firm, try and get as much information about the debt collector as possible, and tell them to stop contacting you. If you believe a debt collector is violating your rights under the FDCPA, feel free to contact our office. You can give us a call or fill out the free case evaluation online by scrolling to the bottom of any of our website's pages. The Treinen Law Firm handles FDCPA cases on a regular basis.

On Wednesdays We Wear Pink: Forever 21 Lavender Rose12:58:00 PM
It's Wednesday! Sorry for my short absence -- the internet was down at my house. It felt like a crisis! But I am here to stay, and today I have a really cool polish from Forever 21 called Lavender Rose. I picked up its sister, Magenta Rose too, so you will see her too. I spotted a bin filled with Rose polishes; they had green, blue, black, and maybe a few others I can't remember. They all have gorgeous iridescent particles in them. The two I bought have sheer jelly-like bases.
Application was fine, nothing incredibly good or bad. I didn't have problems, though. Even though the color name is Lavender Rose, I think this really turned out to be a purple-leaning pink. I hope you On Wednesdays We Wear Pink Girls won't be mad :)
This is 3 coats Forever 21 Lavender Rose, and 1 coat of Seche Vite. You can see I have major shrinkage with this one, so I highly recommend using a different top coat!
Besides the shrinkage, which was caused by SV and not the polish itself, I love this one. The jelly finish looks great with all the iridescent glitters. I'd recommend picking up one of these cute Rose polishes from Forever 21. Look at the adorable bottle!
Isn't that cute? I love little details like that. Fun bottles are a big plus to me. I love Nfu Oh ones, and these Forever 21 bottles are pretty nice too. What's your favorite bottle shape?

I saw these just yesterday when I went to Forever21, I debated over getting them but in the end I didn't get them because I thought I would be able to franken them. But love the color and the bottle is TDF!ReplyDelete
Oh so cute! Time to make a trip to Forever 21. :)ReplyDelete

This bottle is toooo cute!!!! Making me want to go to Forever!!!ReplyDelete
Ooh, this one is pretty too. The bottle is adorable. I like!ReplyDelete

CSS not loading in Firefox
I'm working on setting up your plugin on this site:
Initially it worked great, the total number of Javascript and CSS files went from 80 (!) to 24, with smaller size. However, only Chrome was loading the site correctly. Firefox, Opera, and IE were showing missing styling and text on the home page. After some troubleshooting, it looks like if I set the number of minify strings per file to only 4 or above, then Firefox will not style the home page. I have it set to 4 right now so that you can see. It looks like Opera, IE, and Chrome all work fine at 4, but Firefox shows missing styling unless I change that setting to 3.
Do you know what I can do in order to get that number higher? I'd like to go back to 24 requests, most of the other ones are third party sites that I can't control but it's a great savings.

Another day, another crazy billionaire mogul trying to get into reality television.
Mark Cuban, the outspoken owner of basketball's Dallas Mavericks, has agreed to give away $1 million of his own money when he hosts a reality show called "The Benefactor," the Associated Press reports.
In a statement Cuban released to The Dallas Morning News, the NBA owner says that contestants will not need any special talents. "I'm not looking to find out who is the grossest, funniest, prettiest, smartest or able to go without food or water the longest," he said.
In fact, it's still not immediately clear what contestants will need to do. Other minor details, like the show's format and number episodes, also have yet to be worked out, AP reports.
Cuban, however, does say that the winning contestant will have to "get on my good side at the right time, and whoever that is, is going to walk away with a check from me for $1 million."
As to why Cuban would do such a thing, ABC issued a statement that read: "Because he can and because he can't wait to devise the means through which applicants must prove to him that they deserve the money."
It also remains to be seen just how difficult it will be to get on Cuban's good side. For instance, if you're an NBA referee — forget about it. Cuban has been fined more than a million dollars in penalties for chewing out refs since he bought the Mavericks in 2000.

Kalanick said the fund would focus on large-scale job creation through investments in real estate, e-commerce and upcoming innovations from India and China.
Travis Kalanick, founder and former chief executive officer (CEO) of Uber, is looking to back innovative technology-start-ups in India and China through his newly launched fund 10100, pronounced as 'ten-one-hundred'.
Kalanick said the fund would focus on large-scale job creation through investments in real estate, e-commerce and upcoming innovations from India and China.
He will also route his philanthropic efforts through the fund besides the for-profit investments.
"The overarching theme will be about large-scale job creation, with investments in real estate, e-commerce and emerging innovation in China and India.
"Our non-profit efforts will initially focus on education and the future of cities," the statement, which Kalanick tweeted, said.
The announcement comes around two months after SoftBank began the process of lapping up Uber shares in the secondary market at a $48 billion valuation.
Kalanick is said to have offered to sell nearly half of his shareholding in Uber. He ended up selling 39 per cent of it for $1.4 billion.
While he was the CEO of Uber, Kalanick was extremely bullish on India.
He had said the company had a real chance of replacing car ownership with ride hailing in India.
It was on his watch that Uber got into a multi-million dollar war, over customers and drivers, with its rival Ola.
Kalanick's decision to focus on backing innovation in India comes at a time when a dark cloud has been cast over Uber's future in the country.
While Uber's current CEO Dara Khosrowshahi said the company continued to be committed to India, a merger with Ola brokered by SoftBank is rumoured to be on the cards.
Experts say that a deal to sell Uber's India unit to Ola looks all the more imminent after the company has apparently agreed to sell its Southeast-Asia business to rival Grab.
In return, it will receive a 20 per cent stake in the combined entity.
The US company has already sold its China business to rival Didi and Russian business to rival Yandex Cabs.
The revelation that Kalanick had turned a blind eye to former Uber Asia-Pacific president Eric Alexander obtaining medical records of a 26-year-old woman, who had been raped by an Uber driver in Delhi sent shockwaves through the company and its board.
Global media reported that Alexander had discussed the theory that the rape was a setup by rival Ola with Kalanick and Emil Michael, who was the chief business officer at Uber, then.
The news prompted the board to send a letter to terminate the employment of Michael and asked Kalanick to take a three-month leave of absence from which he did not return.

Gosh – got a ton more emails from everyone. Thanks so much! Also, if you use AOL or Yahoo, you can click the link on the right there to add this to your homepage. A lot of people are subscribing to the email feed on the bottom of the page – welcome!
I got an email and call from Richard who suggested we get a second opinion just to make sure we are heading down the right path. This sounds like a good idea – I'm going to talk to our doctor about it to see if we can facilitate this ASAP. He suggested going to John Hopkins in Baltimore. What do you think? Post a comment below or send me an email.
We also heard from Tommy who is a former co-worker of Holly's – he reminded us that Shannon (also a former co-worker) also had a surgery very similar to this just a few years ago. She shared some very interesting insights with us and we will be giving her a call this evening to talk about her experience.
Derek, one of our pastors from Grace Community Church, called me and I think we have a ride hooked up for my parents to get from BWI to the NNMC next Thursday. What a relief!
My Branch Chief called me this morning and everything at work is good. I got the letter from the doctor for work and he was happy with it. He assured me that they are 100% behind us.
I forgot to mention that Tuesday night we had three doctor friends come over to look at the MRI film, one was a Neurologist and all three seemed to agree with my Neurosurgeon's findings. They had wonderful insight to share with us and it actually made us feel a lot better about the whole thing. Thanks to Paul, Diana, Su and also Dan.
Back to research and seeing about that second opinion.

A Warning from Shanghai
- Posted by DynamicHedge
- on June 22nd, 2012
The $SSEC is a grinding towards the March lows I pointed out back in May.
The Shanghai composite is much more sensitive than the $SPX lately and one of the world indices not making new lows. It has previously been an excellent tell on the $SPX and should give you a days worth of warning if the situation in Europe starts to deteriorate further. If you're bullish, pick your swing low ($2344 or $2252) and use that as your pivot for the summer months.
We gave up the first pivot at the end of May and dropped 50 handles quick-snap. We could be in for similar treatment if we lose the 2252 level.

Plus-size fashionistas rejoice. There's a growing boom in the fashion industry for plus-sized clothing and designs.
For years, trendy retailers and designers have ignored the plus-size market, leaving bigger women to shop at expensive specialty stores or to resign themselves to wearing frumpy, dowdy clothing.
Now, however, high-profile designers like Christian Siriano are creating fun, fashionable items for women of all sizes. Siriano, who won the fourth season of "Project Runway," recently collaborated on a line of clothing with retailer Lane Bryant, which focuses on women who are sizes 14 and up.
Other retailers, such as Igigi, Eloquii and Kiyonna have spent years conquering the online market for cute plus-sized clothing.
Several big retailers are joining in. In 2015, Target launched its own line of trendy plus-size clothing with Ava & Viv. In department stores, shoppers can now find plus-size offerings from the likes of Anne Klein, Donna Karan, Oscar de la Renta and Tommy Hilfiger.
Why the sudden rush to tap into this previously ignored market? Money, of course. The size of the average woman in the United States is now a 12, with half of all women over 20 a size 12 or up. Many of these women are younger professionals who want the same fashion choices as their thinner compatriots. That hunger has created a clothing industry worth $17 billion — and growing — in yearly sales.

Beware the Barley Bread
|Google Images
In yesterday's post I revisited Gideon's call to lead God's army against the Midianites (Judges 6). The reluctant warrior might have been encouraged by the thirty-two thousand men he had command of—though the Midianites are described in the chapter as "thick as locusts. Their camels could no more be counted than the sand on the seashore" (7:12). After Gideon got finished counting to, say, sixty-three thousand four hundred and fifty-two, he may have had second thoughts about just how big his army really was!
And then God said: "You have too many men for me to deliver Midian into their hands. In order that Israel may not boast against me that her own strength had saved her, announce to the people…" (7:2, 3). Anyone who was afraid got to go home and Gideon was left with 10,000 men.
Logically we would have thought that ten thousand men beating a much superior force would still be a miracle and result in Israel giving God the glory. But it's amazing how egotistical we can be and God wasn't going to give Gideon or Israel the chance to take pride in "their" accomplishments, so He further reduced the numbers until Gideon only had three hundred men left.
Victory was humanly impossible. Gideon may have been able to keep his fears to himself but I'd guess he was at least a bit nervous. So God sent him down into the camp of the Midianites under the cover of darkness to get a little pick-me-up.
"Gideon arrived just as a man was telling a friend his dream. 'I had a dream,' he was saying. 'A round loaf of barley bread came tumbling into the Midianite camp. It struck the tent with such force that the tent overturned and collapsed.' His friend responded, 'This can be nothing other than the sword of Gideon son of Joash, the Israelite. God has given the Midianites and the whole camp into his hands'" (7:13, 14).
Gideon's response was to return to his men and worship God. NOT! Gideon was so convinced by what God had allowed him to hear through this prophetic message that he immediately, right there in the middle of the enemies' camp, took time to worship (7:15).
Some of my generation may remember the song, High Hopes, by Frank Sinatra
Next time you're found, with your chin on the ground
There a lot to be learned, so look around
Just what makes that little old ant
Think he'll move that rubber tree plant
Anyone knows an ant, can't
Move a rubber tree plant
But he's got high hopes, he's got high hopes
He's got high apple pie, in the sky hopes
So any time your gettin' low
'Stead of lettin' go
Just remember that ant
Oops there goes another rubber tree plant
When troubles call, and your back's to the wall
There's a lot to be learned, that wall could fall
Once there was a silly old ram
Thought he'd punch a hole in a dam
No one could make that ram, scram
He kept buttin' that dam
'Cause he had high hopes, he had high hopes
He had high apple pie, in the sky hopes
So any time your feelin' bad
'stead of feelin' sad
Just remember that ram
Oops there goes a billion kilowatt dam
All problems just a toy balloon
They'll be bursted soon
They're just bound to go pop
Oops there goes another problem kerplop
Gideon didn't just have high hopes. He wasn't simply the eternal optimist. He had God's personal assurances.
I am amazed (or ashamed) at my faith at times. When life takes on the look of three hundred against a half a million, I get nervous. I know that I have about as much chance of getting through whatever it is on my own as a barley loaf does of knocking down a tent.
But God….
He reduces me to my weakest in order that He can be His strongest through me. He reminds me that it isn't me at all, but always HIM, forever HIM, undoubtedly HIM.
And that's not just a hope, but an absolute that we can believe in.

text: As the first-time manager of a provinical non-League football team, former England star Paul Gascoigne promised to fulfil their dreams. Then, in the space of just 39 days, both manager and team saw a dramatic reversal of fortune… Gazza was the English football icon of the 1990s. His magnificent midfield play provided some of England's most memorable moments, and he enjoyed a headline-grabbing career with Newcastle United, Tottenham, Lazio, Glasgow Rangers, Middlesborough and Everton. Then it all went terribly wrong. He still made the headlines, but for all the wrong reasons - alcoholism, drugs, wife-beating, personality disorder, run-ins with the law, nervous breakdown. Like his great hero George Best, Gascoigne seemed to have passed a personal point of no return. Then in the autumn of 2005, he was given a chance to rebuild his career with his first job as a football manager. As part of a consortium which bought Kettering Town, Gazza reinvented himself. Appearing to have his personal problems under control, he took charge - full of big ideas about steering the club into the Football League and towards the big time. The people of Kettering were star-struck by the celebrity among them. And yet, within just a few short weeks after Gascoigne was appointed manager, he would be sacked amidst an increasingly bizarre series of allegations, leaving a once hopeful club on its knees. In39 Days of Gazza, author Steve Pitts tells the story of how the disintegration of Gascoigne's managerial role impacted on so many people's lives - not least his own. This is a tragicomedy of English football, on a par with the fictionalised appraoch of The Damned United. Told by a writer who was close enough to factually observe the events, it features revealing contributions from many who were present at the time.
