Caregivers want to give their loved ones the best care they can. When it comes to senior health, the key lies in the early detection of signs that could lead to serious health issues requiring invasive medical procedures or hospitalization. Without unlimited support and resources, it is difficult for caregivers to constantly monitor seniors’ health and wellbeing.
CarePredict set out to use technology to better monitor and provide insights around seniors’ health. We had a chance to speak with their team about why they started the company and what kind of technology they are using to produce better care for seniors and more peace of mind for caregivers.
“First and foremost, CarePredict was created by a caregiver to solve the challenges caregivers face on a daily-basis in providing preventive care to their loved ones. Five years ago, Satish Movva, the founder and CEO of CarePredict lived miles away from his 90 and 80-year-old parents in Fort Lauderdale. As their primary caregiver, he called them daily to check in, but during his weekly in-person visits, he almost always discovered new health concerns with his parents that invariably led to visits to the emergency room.
“As a 32-year health technology veteran, who previously developed the first mobile EMR (electronic medical record) on the Palm Pilot, Satish knew that there had to be a more effective way for him to provide the care that his parents needed and deserved. He noticed that in the days leading up to the ER visits his parents would exhibit changes in their activity and behavior that were telltale signs of underlying health issues. He began to look for technology solutions that could detect these subtle changes allowing him to act sooner and avoid last minute trips to the ER.
“Satish soon discovered that there were only two technologies being used to monitor seniors. The first was the personal emergency response systems (PERS) — a great tool for a senior to call for help when they needed it, such as after falling. This did not help Satish’s problem. He needed something that would enable him to be proactive, not reactive after the injury occurred.
“The second type of technology, ambient remote monitoring products, used motion sensors and switches on everyday objects like refrigerator doors to track general activity patterns. Unfortunately, these systems did not work if more than one person lived in the home, such as a couple. Visitors to the home further confounded any patterns that were detected. Also, Satish found it a massive leap of faith to believe that his parents had actually eaten just because the system reported that the refrigerator door was opened.
Why should caregivers use technology?
“Satish is not alone. Millions of caregivers rely on the observation powers of others to alert them when care needs to be provided to their loved ones. These caregiving challenges are compounded by increased longevity, higher rates of morbidity, and an acute decrease in the number of available caregivers. By 2050, there will be nearly 1.5 billion people over the age of 65, compared to 524 million in 2010.
“Conversely, the number of caregivers is declining, and the number of working-age adults to support the financing of care for elders is falling. Technology needs to be utilized to augment and force-multiply human observation in order to provide quality care for the growing number of seniors.
“A solution that provides continuous visibility is crucial to detect changes in activity and behavior patterns in a timely fashion — something that cannot be provided by intermittent human observation given the finite number of data points a human can both observe and remember. This is where Artificial Intelligence (AI) comes in. AI can be used to bridge the caregiver-senior ratio gap and can be used to augment occasional human observation with continuous machine observation and deep learning neural nets to predict when interventions are needed.
What is the technology behind CarePredict?
“CarePredict is an AI-driven digital health company that has developed a deep learning platform to provide insights into seniors’ health by collecting data points using a smart wearable and smart remote sensors.
“The wearable, designed exclusively for seniors, collects data autonomously that is normally only observable by a human today. Machine learning and unique kinematics algorithms are used to quantify daily activities performed by the human body such as drinking, eating, sleeping, walking, grooming, etc. A unique sensor pack then adds contextual data such as the type of room where an activity is performed and environmental information, such as temperature, humidity, etc.
How do you see your technology making a difference in the lives of seniors and their families?
“CarePredict’s revolutionary products and services aim to markedly improve the lives of seniors and caregivers in many ways. First, the product provides tremendous peace of mind to both seniors and their loved ones. Second, our predictive technology empowers the caregiver with much needed real-time insights into the senior’s activity and behavior patterns that can be integral to identifying health concerns, such as probability of falls or urinary tract infections (UTIs).
Globally, nearly 650,000 fatal falls occur annually. This makes falls the second leading cause of unintentional injury death. Falls are a significant public health problem, and are also the single most significant inflection point in aging. Every year over 300,000 seniors are hospitalized for hip fractures, and more than 95 percent of hip fractures are caused by falling.
People over the age of 60 have a 25 percent chance of mortality within a year of falling and breaking a major bone. Thus, not breaking a bone can mean living a normal lifespan. Previous technologies focused on reacting to a fall: our efforts are to predict and potentially prevent senior falls.
Based on our AI detecting an increased fall risk for an individual, a physician can authorize physical therapy to help a person regain strength or balance so a fall can be prevented.
A UTI is the second most common infection found in long-term care. Catching them two-three days earlier could reduce costs significantly – for example a few dollars worth of oral antibiotics versus tens of thousands of dollars worth of hospital stays – and also protect the elder from hospital acquired secondary infections and prevent antibiotic resistance. Our AI can predict the occurrence of a urinary tract infection 3.7 days on average before it is diagnosed.

Stage and screen actor Marco de la O (Tanto Amor) will play drug kingpin Joaquin ‘El Chapo’ Guzmán on El Chapo, the original drama series now set to premiere Sunday, April 23 on Univision.
The series, which marks the first co-production between Univision’s Story House Entertainment and Netflix, is currently in production and will air in three separate cycles. It explores the life story of El Chapo, one of the world’s most notorious criminals, over a span of three decades – from 1985 when he was a low-level member of the Guadalajara Cartel, his rise to power, and his ultimate downfall.
Rounding out the cast are Humberto Busto (Amores Perros) as Attorney Conrado Sol, aka “Don Sol” (an important political party figure); Juan Carlos Olivas (180°) as El Güero (Joaquín’s main partner); Alejandro Aguilar (Rosario Tijeras) as Toño (Joaquín’s main assassin); Tete Espinoza (Wenses y Lala) as Chío (Joaquín’s lover); Rodrigo Abed (Revolución) as Amado (Mexican capo); Luis Rábago (Principio y Fin) as General Blanco (National Security Advisor); Cristina Michaus (El Tigre de Santa Julia) as Doña Esperanza (Joaquín’s mother); Valentina Acosta (Señora Acero) as Alejandra (Joaquín’s first wife); and Juliette Pardau (De Todas Maneras Rosa) as Graciela (Joaquín’s second wife).
El Chapo is created by Silvana Aguirre Zegarra and produced by Daniel Posada; the first season is directed by Jose Manuel Cravioto and Ernesto Contreras.
Guzmán, who has been accused by law enforcement of running the “largest drug trafficking organization in the world,” has long evaded authorities. After being captured by Mexican authorities in February 2014, he escaped from a maximum security Mexican prison in July 2015 by crawling through an opening in the shower of his cell block that led to a mile-long tunnel to freedom. He was recaptured nearly six months later and extradited to the U.S. earlier this year. His next scheduled court appearance is on May 5, 2017.

I had a go at fitting my Scorpion Slip-On today and had a problem with the link pipe to the cat.
It wasn't flanged to allow it to slide over the cat.
My bike is a 2007 600RR.
The pipe was straight where the cuts are in the metal and therefore just sat on top of the cat so was unable to fit it.
I've had Scorpion send me out a new one in hope that the pipe will be flanged correctly.
Anybody ever seen this before or have had the same issues??
What's the issue with fitting an RR rear shock?
scorpion slip on exhaust, need some input!

World War III began on the quiet streets of Marrakech, Morocco. Now, if you’ve been there, or read about it, or seen any of the plethora of movies that were filmed there, you would know that the streets of Marrakech are the opposite of quiet. In fact, it is a destination that psychiatrists should send anxiety victims: they would either adapt and realize that back home isn’t so bad, or die. Adapt or die. The basic Darwinian principle. Anyway, back to the World War, the war to end all wars…wait that’s what Wilson said of the first world war, and though a great president and scholar, he was grossly mistaken.
At this particular time, Rue el Gza was unusually quiet. The donkeys pulling their rickshaws, the men playing checkers with bottle caps, the children learning the art of thievery, none were there. The bread vendors spilling onto the already overcrowded street were shut down. The bicycles and barely running motorbikes were parked. Quiet. Eerily quiet, like waking up near Niagara and hearing nothing. Something is wrong, terribly wrong. Then, she saw why. The pretty blonde that had called this street home for the last three weeks, three long weeks, now knew why the buzzing and bustle and rumble of Rue el Gza was gone.
As she walked up the hill from her hammam, a final present to herself on the last day she would call this place home, and perhaps the best experience she had in all her time here, she saw them. All of them. The street was blocked. She was but 150 meters from home, yet 1400 years away. 1400 years of Islam stood, or rather sat, between Susan and her home. She just wanted to get to her riad, gather her belonging and go. That’s all. She was tired. Tired of this place. Tired of always having to say “no” to “friendly help” because it was anything but friendly. Tired of always being on guard. She just wanted to go, to leave this place forever. But fate had other plans. She could not pass. Rue el Gza was closed, or at least this stretch, because there were 2,700 Muslims sitting in prayer. Of all the places in the city, today, this group chose this stretch of road.
On her approach, she was stopped by several children who insisted she take a left down a smaller road. “It is this way, you can go this way, go around.” They all said. These children should be in school. The same children that beg for money every day. Susan ignores them and brushes them off as always. You have to. You learn that you have to. She keeps walking. Then a man stops her. He claims to be Muslim with dark sunglasses, greasy hair, olive skin worn down by the sand and the heat. He is in his thirties and could use a hammam or two. He tells her she cannot pass. She must go around, this way. The same way that the children said. But how does she know? He could be lying. Everyone else in this town lies. They all say, “The square is this way,” when in fact it is not. They just lead you a different route and demand money. Why should she believe this guy? Because nearly 3000 other people are praying? No. She shouldn’t. I wouldn’t. She tells the man that she is going through. He insists that she can’t. He was never nice about it, but now he is rude. He raises his voice and says that Islam is the greatest religion in the world and she cannot pass at this time. She must go around or wait until the prayer is over. She says, “Ok, I will wait,” and turns around. She retreats 50 meters or so, out of the reach of the swindling children and the brash man. She waits quietly, disturbing no one. Waiting. Waiting on a prayer to end. Waiting to leave this dreadful place.
Just like the assassination of an Archduke of Austria started the first world war, the wicked smile and wit of an American girl in Morocco started the last.

on her approach, she was stopped by several children who insisted she take a left down a smaller road. “it is this way, you can go this way, go around.” they all said. these children should be in school. the same children that beg for money every day. susan ignores them and brushes them off as always. you have to. you learn that you have to. she keeps walking. then a man stops her. he claims to be muslim with dark sunglasses, greasy hair, olive skin worn down by the sand and the heat. he is in his thirties and could use a hammam or two. he tells her she cannot pass. she must go around, this way. the same way that the children said. but how does she know? he could be lying. everyone else in this town lies. they all say, “the square is this way,” when in fact it is not. they just lead you a different route and demand money. why should she believe this guy? because nearly 3000 other people are praying? no. she shouldn’t. i wouldn’t. she tells the man that she is going through. he insists that she can’t. he was never nice about it, but now he is rude. he raises his voice and says that islam is the greatest religion in the world and she cannot pass at this time. she must go around or wait until the prayer is over. she says, “ok, i will wait,” and turns around. she retreats 50 meters or so, out of the reach of the swindling children and the brash man. she waits quietly, disturbing no one. waiting. waiting on a prayer to end. waiting to leave this dreadful place.
just like the assassination of an archduke of austria started the first world war, the wicked smile and wit of an american girl in morocco started the last.

Jesus then took the cup and gave thanks and told them to share it and He told them that He would not drink of the fruit of the vine from then until the kingdom of God had come.
He and His disciples were observing the last Passover Feast under the Law of Moses. It would be the last Passover Feast under that Law because that Law would end the next day when Jesus died on the cross.
The Jews would continue to observe the Passover in Jerusalem until the temple was destroyed in 70 AD but those Feasts would not comply with the Law of Moses because that temple structure was no longer God’s dwelling place on earth.
It did not comply after Christ’s death because they were to celebrate all of their feasts before the LORD at His house in Jerusalem and God vacated that house when Jesus died on the cross. Remember, when He died the inner veil was torn apart (Mark 15:38). God’s Spirit had vacated that house.
God’s requires perfection of those who would draw near to Him and those old covenant sacrifices could not make them perfect. Only Christ’s new covenant sacrifice can make one perfect.
Worship was changed so that Christ could sanctify God’s people by offering His own body for their sins. Jesus told the woman at the well about that change. She wanted to know about the place for worship. Jesus told her that the time had come to no longer worship the Father in Jerusalem.
He told her, "But an hour is coming, and now is, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth; for such people the Father seeks to be His worshipers. "God is spirit, and those who worship Him must worship in spirit and truth." (John 4:23-24).
That old covenant earthly worship was not true worship but it does show us an earthly copy of our spiritual worship. Was it made to happen for our instruction like Christ spoke in parables for our instruction?
The Spirit of Christ is speaking through Moses when he directs those Israelites in their worship. Is He speaking through Moses in parables? We did hear the Hebrew writer say that the Law had only a shadow of the good things to come and not the very form of things. A shadow is just a dark image of what is the reality.
If that old earthly worship was intended to be like a parable copy of our worship then it was like a true story parable because it really happened. It actually happened at an earthly tabernacle (And later at the temple).
Jesus is now serving as our mediator with the Father in the Most Holy Place of God’s true tabernacle as we serve in the outer tabernacle room of the church on earth. Speaking of our service in the church, Peter says that we are a royal priesthood (1 Peter 2:9).
That old Passover Feast was a part of their worship that was a shadow of the things to come. Can we see a parallel earthly copy of our spiritual feast in that old earthly Passover feast?
He was instituting the Lord’s Supper as they were observing that old Law Passover but He said that He would eat the Passover with them again in the kingdom of God. If He would eat the Passover in the kingdom of God after He died on the cross then it would be the new covenant Passover, meaning the Lord’s Supper.
That was the Passover that God was speaking of when He told Israel that they were to celebrate it as a permanent ordinance. Jesus would eat of that new covenant Passover with His disciples in the kingdom of God. That kingdom is found in Christ’s church body. He is meeting with us and partaking of that Passover with us when we observe the Lord’s Supper together in our assembly.
Some have asked the question “is there a set day for us to observe the Lord’s Supper?” Can we see it in what God told those Israelites? He told them that they were to observe their Passover Feast as a memorial. They were to celebrate it on the very day that God brought their hosts out of the land of Egypt, the land of slavery.
Jesus is leading God’s people out of slavery to sin in this world to take them to their heavenly land just as Moses led God’s earthly Israel out of Egyptian slavery to take them to their earthly land. For those who have followed Jesus out of slavery to sin, they are to remember what He did to set them free and observe the very day that He led them out.
When did Jesus bring His people out of that slavery? We know that He had to offer Himself on the cross to redeem us from sin. We have been commanded to partake of that feast to remember the offering of His body and His blood. Not long after He made that sacrifice He began to lead His people out of slavery.
He is bringing His spiritual Israel out of slavery to sin every day as each one becomes obedient to the gospel but it began to happen on the Day of Pentecost when the Spirit was first given and the gospel was first preached. It happened on a Sunday, the first day of the week. Remember, about three thousand souls were saved that day (Acts 2:38-41).
Justin Martyr, one of the early church fathers, said that the Lord’s Supper was observed on Sunday. In his First Apology (Written about 150AD), he tells how they came together in a common assembly on Sunday and partook of bread and wine and water.
The last living apostle (John) lived and served in the church at Ephesus less than fifty years before Justin Martyr wrote those words and John was guided by the Holy Spirit. It appears that the “Lord’s Day” that John spoke of in Revelation 1:10, was Sunday. It seems unlikely that the day for worship assembly would have changed in fifty years.
It appears that the first day of the week, Sunday, is the Lord’s Day and it is the day for us to assemble and partake of our new covenant Passover to remember Christ and what He had to do to bring us out of slavery to sin in this world.
Scripture says that on the first day of the week, “when we were gathered together to break bread”, which infers that was the set time. It appears that day was the set day for them to meet together to break bread and worship because Paul was there seven days and no mention is made of them meeting together during the previous six days.
They came together on the first day of the week to break bread at Troas. In another place Paul spoke of how the Corinthians came together to eat the Lord’s Supper. He did not say on what day they met but they gathered for that purpose. They gathered for that purpose but they had changed its meaning from spiritual to earthly and it did not meet God’s requirements.
He told them that they had houses where they could eat and drink. Instead, they were making the Lord’s Supper into an earthly feast and those who had wealth ignored their poor brethren who had nothing. The poor were hungry while the wealthy feasted. They observed a divided earthly feast when they should have been observing a united spiritual feast.
When we partake of that feast we are spiritually partaking of His body and His blood. We must remember Him when we partake. We will be proclaiming His death to redeem us from sin. The bread represents His body and the cup is the new covenant in His blood.
We are Christ’s body. We must judge the body rightly before we partake lest we partake in an unworthy manner. Dare that we should partake in an unworthy manner lest we become guilty of His body and His blood. We bring judgment to ourselves if we have not judged the body rightly.
Did that old Law Passover have an example of some being judged because they partook of that feast in an unworthy manner? We know that God told His people they were not to eat of any peace offering if they were unclean. One could become unclean if they had recently touched a dead body.
Anyone who had become unclean because they had touched a dead person was not to partake of that old Law Passover Feast (Numbers 9:6). They could partake at a later time (After having been made clean) but if they disobeyed and partook in an unclean condition, they brought judgment upon themselves. They were to be cut off from Israel.
They would also be cut off from Israel if they partook of leavened bread during their feast. There was to be no leaven in their houses during the seven days of that feast.
Why such harsh punishment for eating bread with leaven in it? They ate bread with leaven at other times but not during that feast. It sounds harsh unless God made it happen for our instruction. Was it because God was speaking ahead of how we are to avoid leaven in our new covenant spiritual feast? Does scripture say anything about our spiritual leaven?
Remember, Jesus told the Jews that He was the bread of life and that bread is His flesh. He also said that that anyone who eats of that bread will live forever (John 6:48-51).
Christ’s disciples have become a part of His church body and they are the bread. The bread must be kept free of leaven.
Any man who lives an immoral life sins against his own body and if he is a member of the church, he sins against the church body. If his sin is open and known within the church and the community, he not only sins against himself he causes all members who accept fellowship with Him to sin.
We must consider the body of Christ and not allow leaven in our bread. Not every sin is leaven but any so called brother or sister who is living a life of open wickedness is causing leaven to be in the bread.
Those church members who are leaven have been cut off by God and they are no longer heirs to that heavenly land but for the other members who continue to fellowship with them, the same thing will happen to them. If we continue to fellowship with those who have become leaven in the body of Christ, we will be cut off from God’s people and lose our heavenly land.
God’s people were not to partake of any leavened bread during the full seven days of that Feast of Unleavened Bread. The Passover was the first day of that seven day feast. If their feast lasted for seven days, then our feast lasts for seven days.
Our seven day Feast of Unleavened Bread begins with our Passover on the first day and lasts for a full seven days. We celebrate our Passover on Sunday and continue our feast for the rest of the week.
After that seven day feast ends, the next week begins with another Passover and another seven day Feast of Unleavened Bread. We must avoid leaven in our bread every day while we live on this earth.
If we overlook obvious leaven in the body, we will answer for it. Anyone who partakes of leaven during our feast and does not repent and change will be cut off from God’s people.
Any brother or sister who would begin to live a life of open sinful rebellion so as to cause leaven to be in the body by trying to continue to worship and fellowship with the brotherhood will have become a stumbling block for the brethren. For anyone who would cause God’s children to fall, their condemnation will likely be beyond anything outsiders will face.
God forbid that we would ever cause a brother or sister to stumble and fall and be lost by tempting them to partake of our leaven. If we should ever begin to live a life of open wickedness we should remove ourselves from the church fellowship. A person who has left the church and has gone back into the world has removed that leaven from the bread.
The church elders should do their best to keep leaven from the bread but the commandment is not just to elders, it is to each member of the body. Each one of us will answer for how we have helped to avoid leaven. I must avoid leaven even if some others fail to do that.
We must make every effort to be with the assembly on the first day of the week to worship and partake of the Passover. Scripture says that any man who was clean (Under the Law) and was not on a journey but failed to partake of the Passover was to be cut off from God’s people. We must not neglect to observe our Passover Feast (Without a valid reason) lest we be cut off from God’s people and lose our inheritance.
For those who might be unclean, however, the reverse is true. If it should happen that we made a mistake during the week and caused ourselves to become spiritually unclean (Like touching a spiritually dead body?), we must not partake of that feast.
Under that old Law an unclean person would remain unclean for seven days. If we must avoid eating of our Passover because we are unclean, it appears that we can partake of the next Passover if we have repented and remain clean until that next appointed time.
God caused that old Passover and the Feast of Unleavened Bread to happen for our instruction. We need to hear the message. We must not forsake partaking of our Passover lest we be cut off from God’s people. Before we partake we must consider the body and remove leaven from the bread.
If it should ever happen that we become leaven, then we need to be careful to avoid that Passover and the seven day Feast of Unleavened Bread at all costs because if we cause some of God’s children to be cut off it would make God very unhappy.

I've also bundled in the Zeiss 24-70 f4 lens I've used for stills and gimbal work. It's nice, sharp and light. Comes with pouch and hood. Everything still comes with the original box, cables, chargers, manuals and 6 A7S II batteries (3 official, 3 third party). There's a few very faint marks on the camera, not really noticeable. The reason for sale is that we have another A7S II and we are looking to fund an FS5 as A and B-cam. Price is £2999 + shipping (as location varies). Collection in person is fine. PM me or email [email protected] if interested. European buyers only please.
