We will set off at 4 am to drive an hour to the Kunjapuri temple situated perfectly atop a conical mountain. It is a historically acclaimed Hindu sanctuary that was built in memory of the Goddess Parvati (also known as Goddess Sati and Goddess Durga).
However, a note written about its history was that religious followers in India built the Kunjapuri shrine after the grueling death of their Goddess Parvati also known as Sati.
Sati sacrificed her life after her father King Daksha humiliated her husband and her at a gathering that attracted thousands. After her sudden death, her husband Lord Shiva flew her body over Rishikesh and her destroyed body fell into the lands of Rishikesh thus creating a temple dedicated to her name.
According to temple goers in the area, the temple atop the hill on a clear day can attract some spectacular views of the ever so beautiful snow ranges of the Himalayas and the valleys of the Bhagirathi.
After breakfast, we will transfer to the Vashistha Cave, where one of the most revered saints of Hindus, Sri Vashistha and his wife Srimati Arundhati had meditated for a long time.
Located on the banks of the river Ganges, the cave is an ideal gateway for any spiritual seeker who would like to meditate and spend time in contemplation.
Day 12: Exploring Rishikesh and White Water Rafting
After breakfast, we will transfer to Shivpuri. The name Shivpuri means "abode of the Mahadeva". Shivpuri is one of the known rafting spots.
Rafting from Shivpuri to Rishikesh covers a distance of nearly 16 km. You can choose this course if you are a fun-loving person that likes adventure and thrill. After this 16 km route, we will arrive and transfer to the hotel for lunch, refresh and evening free time.

Why Retreat?
We asked people why they go on retreat, here's what they said:
My inspiration is to find some very much needed solace away from the stress of raising 4 children, working (as a dietitian) and trying to get my private nutrition counseling practice launched. I am a registered yoga instructor and have practiced for over 10 yrs, and have always dreamed of taking a yoga retreat just for my own inner well being. Linda
Retreat Guru's Vision
We believe human beings are innately wise, strong and kind. This wisdom, although not always experienced, is always present. Going on retreat is a beautiful way to reconnect to our basic sanity and health. Our aspiration at Retreat Guru is to inspire people to experience authentic retreats and reconnect with their innate wisdom, strength and kindness.

Who is bpNichol?

» Who is bpNichol?
Barrie Phillip Nichol (aka bpNichol) records this passage from Henry Miller in 1979 in his Houses of the Alphabet notebook. It is one of many moments when his concerns for both the genre of biography and the way he would be remembered become apparent. This is also a theme in many of his poems as well, which can be linked to a much larger context, origin. For him, both biography and autobiography are fictions that try to make sense of incomplete data, memories, perspectives, and facts through plausible interpretations.
bpNichol (Barrie Phillip Nichol) was born in Vancouver, BC, in 1944. In 1963, he received a teaching certificate from the University of British Columbia and briefly taught elementary school. He also worked for the University of Toronto Libraries, was a theradramatist and administrator for a therapy foundation called Therafields, and, in the 1980s, wrote for several children's television shows, such as Fraggle Rock and The Carebears. bpNichol died in 1988 in Toronto.
His career as a poet began in the early 1960s, and his early attempts at writing produced fiction and lyric poetry. It wasn't until the late 1960s, upon arriving in Toronto that Nichol decided to concentrate on visual poetry, or "ideopomes," as he called them. This decision ended up gaining him attention and reknown as a poet, because visual poetry had been, unbeknowst to him, enjoying since the early 1950s an international surge of interest as "concrete poetry."
Nichol's first major collection of concrete poetry, Konfessions of an Elizbethan Fan Dancer, marked the beginning of a long engagement with the typewriter and the visual possibilities that it could produce. The grid-like qualities of typewritten text allowed him to reproduce letters exact distances apart, and to create meaning semantically and visually. Soon after this he published bp, a boxed set of concrete poems, and in 1970 the Governor General's Award-winning collection of loose poems, Still Water.
Among his many books of prose, Craft Dinner: Stories & Texts, 1966-1976 (1978), Journal (1978), Still (1983), and Selected Organs: Parts of an Autobiography (1988) stand out as the most important and interesting. bpNichol also spent a considerable amount of time over the years developing several series of poems, including his concrete letter poems, and the series 'Probable Systems;' however many believe that The Martyrology is his most significant poem and is the culmination of his life's work as a poet.
bpNichol also performed sound poetry in solo concerts, with various other performers, and as one of the group The Four Horsemen. He founded Ganglia Press in 1965 with David Aylward and grOnk magazine in 1967 with Bill Bissett and David UU (David W. Harris). He edited various magazines and anthologies, as well as bringing many books by other writers out through a long involvement with Coach House Press. As for his own work, he published a wide range of poetry and prose in too many books and pamphlets to count, and always with the small presses, whose work he passionately believed in.
Throughout his life, Nichol continued to subvert formal and thematic conventions in his shorter poems and sequences—effortlessly moving between genres, blurring and experimenting with generic boundaries. bpNichol is considered to be one of Canada's greatest poets.

We all know Alternate Key is used for the unique identification of an entity records in Dynamics 365 in the place of the primary key. The alternate key can be a combination of more than one attributes in Dynamics 365. Using alternate key user can identify a unique record in the system.
In this blog, will discuss how to move the Alternate key of a custom entity, from the source environment to target environment as a Managed Solution without failure.
Where, we created Test solution in the source environment. And within the solution created a new custom entity, a custom field and also the Alternate Key.
Then we exported the solution as a Managed from source environment and imported it on the target environment, the status of alternate key remains as pending and it remains pending forever.
If a custom entity does not exists in the target environment, then the activation process of Alternate key fails for almost 75% times. The activation of the Alternate Key never fails for OOB entities and custom entity (if a custom entity already present in target environment).
We created a Test solution and added our custom entity (X). Then we created a patch from Test solution, where we added the alternate key.
In our custom entity (X), we created one custom field and also the Alternate key.
Then we have created a Test solution on source environment, in that we added custom entity (X) and the custom field. After that, we exported this solution form source environment and Imported into the target environment.
Then create a patch from a Test solution on source Environment, in that patch we added only Alternate Keys of that Custom Entity. After that Export that patch and Imported on target Environment.
The user can also activate alternate key manually in Dynamics 365.
We searched records in System job with the name equal to "Create index for (Alternate Key Name) Key for entity (Entity Name)", and delete those system job records which are failed to execute.
To activate Alternate Key, Open Alternate key view and select the key from grid and click on "More Action" and select "Reactivate Key" option.
To avoid "Exception: Event failed due to an exception" User needs to ensure that the custom entity should be present in target environment, before moving the Alternate Key of a custom entity from source environment. Otherwise they have to activate alternate key manually.

Gapers Block is looking for a few good people to join our staff. We're looking for folks who share our passion for the city — how many great and interesting things are going on, how many amazing people and places and events are here — and are excited to share all of it with the world (or at least other Chicagoans).
We are currently looking for people to contribute in three areas: Merge and Slowdown, our blog and calendar; Transmission, our local music blog; and a new food blog that will be launching very soon. Below is some information about our needs and expectations for each, as well as information about how to submit a feature for Detour if the occasional longer article is more your speed. All these positions are volunteer — none of us is getting paid right now (not even Andrew and Naz), but there are perks to being on staff.
UPDATE 1/24/07: After receiving dozens of applications, we have made our decisions and will not be reviewing any more applicants at this time. Thank you for your overwhelming interest, and keep your eye out for "help wanted" posts in the future.
Gapers Block is about getting people to slow down and check out what's going on in the city around them. We're looking for people with unique perspectives on Chicago who are interested in highlighting cool stuff going on in the city. If you've read the site for very long, you should have an idea of what we're talking about.
For Merge and Slowdown, staffers are expected to post 12-15 items a month to Merge and/or Slowdown. That works out to around three or four posts a week, which ought to be pretty doable. We do keep track, and slackers will be shamed for awhile and eventually guilted into leaving.
Spelling and grammar skills are important, and the ability to write concisely is valued. Some basic html knowledge is a plus although not strictly required. We're particularly interested in contributors who live on the South and West Sides (though if you live on the North Side, that's cool, too.) We're also looking for people who would be interested in covering particular beats, such as sports, arts and theater or politics.
Interested? Email us at inbox@gapersblock.com with some background on yourself (name, a website if you have one, why you want to be on staff) and a couple sample posts.
We are not looking for new columnists at this time, but if you have an idea for a feature article, read about submitting to Detour below.
Do you seldom need to be convinced to go to hear a new band at your neighborhood nightspot? Do you find yourself wandering down every aisle of the record store hoping for a chance at finding a misfiled import? Do you love getting the first crack at a soon-to-be released single from an underground band? Then we want to hear from you!
Gapers Block's music blog, Transmission, just got a design refresh and is looking for new contributors to help beef up our coverage of all the music that Chicago has to offer. We're particularly interested in contributors to focus on the local hip hop, folk, jazz, blues, classical and electronica scenes to round out our rock coverage.
If you're a writer who likes to rock — or jam, or bop, or anything in between — and can write about Chicago's music scene a couple times a week, we'd love to have you join us. Send three sample posts (three to five sentences each), along with your full name and your favorite types of music, to transmission@gapersblock.com with the subject line "Ready to Rock." Don't delay!
Even if you're not up to the demands of being on staff, you can contribute by joining the Gapers Block Transmission flickr pool! Share photos of concerts, musicians, record stores, classes and anything else relating to the local music scene, and it'll stream across the Transmission website. Sweet!
In the coming weeks, we will be launching another standalone blog like Transmission, this one focused on Chicago's vibrant food scene. This will encompass not just restaurants and bars but also grocery stores, farmers markets, foodblogs and discussion boards, local food companies and more.
As with Transmission, we're looking for contributors who can post several times a week. But since this is a brand new endeavor, we're hiring general staffers as well as people who may be interested in writing recurring features — reviews or perhaps something more original. We'd love to hear your ideas along these lines. If you think you're right for this blog, email inbox@gapersblock.com and tell us about yourself and how you'd like to contribute.
• The feature must have some connection to Chicago. This could mean either A) the author lives in Chicagoland or B) the story is about some aspect of Chicago or the surrounding area. Either way works for us, though B is obviously the stronger option.
• Minimum article length is 1,500 words (although this is flexible, and obviously doesn't apply to visual submissions.) A maximum isn't really set, but there's probably a glass ceiling in mid-3,000s somewhere.
• All submissions should be presented in .doc or .txt format. We run on Macs here, but PC file formats are OK.
• Artwork (photography, drawings, etc.) is welcomed along with feature submissions — or as a feature in and of itself. All images are to be presented in a Photoshop-readable format, preferably .jpg, .png or .gif.
• We'll need a one- or two-sentence bio to run at the end of the feature. Include a link to your own site if you've got one.
We cannot guarantee that anything you submit will be published. We reserve the right to edit any work; time allowing, we will share these edits with you, and we may ask that you revise and resubmit your piece. For best results, run your story idea by us ahead of time, along with an estimate of when you'll have it done.
Story ideas and submissions should be sent to inbox@gapersblock.com.

Campbell River LNG Export Plant Goes Down In Flames, Dead And Buried.
Remember this hype, all the good people of Campbell River invited to a town hall meeting to rejoice in the announcement of good times acomin to Campbell River, LNG export plant to the rescue...
Excitement builds over Campbell River LNG plant
by Alistair Taylor - Campbell River Mirror
posted Sep 10, 2013 at 1:00 PM— updated Sep 10, 2013 at 2:41 PM
It will be a long haul before Discovery LNG starts shipping liquid natural gas from the former Elk Falls Mill site.
But Quicksilver Resources is serious about seeing the project happen, says senior vice president and chief operating officer David Rushford.
"Obviously, we're very serious," Rushford said, during an interview at a community meet and greet held at the Elk Falls Mill site Monday.
Interest in the project is high amongst Campbell Riverites. People were asked to RSVP to the advertised informational event and 400 took the time to indicate they were coming. For every person that RSVPs, there's an exponential number that plan to drop by so Quicksilver staff were prepared for up to 800 to show up.
The interest and support shown by Campbell River has impressed Quicksilver officials.
"When you try to develop these projects, one of the things you look for is a supportive community," Rushford said. "The community is totally behind us."
Rushford said the Elk Falls site, which it bought from Catalyst Paper in May for $8.6 million is a perfect location. It has a deepwater port, a brownfield site (mothballed industrial location) that is "beautiful" for LNG, there are multiple ways to get the gas here and there is an educated local workforce that is a legacy of the former pulp and paper operation.
"You are not going to see a better site in B.C. to do LNG than Campbell River," Rushfrod said.
The company has leased approximately 129,000 acres in northeastern B.C. in the Horn River Basin, where Horn River Shale formations are believed to contain large quantities of recoverable deep shale natural gas. The company also holds 410,000 acres in Alberta.
The challenge for the company is to find markets for its Horn River property, the most likely target being Asia – Japan, South Korea and China. With its Elk Falls purchase, Quicksilver has the means to ship LNG to Asian markets.
A previously-identified hurdle to the project is the size of the existing gas pipeline that supplied the former pulp mill. That 10-inch line is not big enough, Rushford said. A 36-inch line will be needed. A route for a new pipeline has been identified and negotiations are ongoing with landholders.
Rushford said the company is "very confident" they can get a pipeline to the project. He pointed out that the plant developers don't usually build or own the supplying pipeline, that would be done by any number of possible pipeline builders.
Before a pipeline is built and hooked up, the company has two major processes to go through – a regulatory path and a financial certainty path.
"A development of this size is much bigger than we can do on our own," Rushford said.
Quicksilver is searching for an investment partner, likely a company from Asia.
With regards to regulatory approvals, both the federal and provincial governments have their environmental assessment acts to be satisfied.
Quicksilver intends to begin the regulatory process later this year. Pending regulatory approvals and permits, construction for the first phase of the potential project is expected to take approximately four years, with the project anticipated to be operational by 2019.

Quicksilver Resources, the distressed Fort Worth oil and gas drilling company, filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy Tuesday.
The bankruptcy was triggered by a $13.6 million interest payment the company intentionally skipped on Feb. 17. The 30-day grace period would have ended March 19.

LNG Proponents in British Columbia, Another One Bites The Dust
(Updated January 10th/2015)
B.C. Liberal`s over-hyped under delivered LNG pipe-dream takes another step backwards.. British Gas, gone, Apache, gone, EnCana gas, out the door, EOG Resources done like dinner, Petronas, caputsky and today another BC LNG player bites the dust.
Oh the hype, spin and bluster, Christy clucking Clark and full of gas Rich Coleman, ...remember their LNG revenues promises, for 4 years we have heard the bullshit from our provincial Government, bullshit that the media fell for, Baldrey, Palmer, Bill Good, ...Global BC ran with spin, The Province and Vancouver Sun newspapers actually created new sections in their paper, a section called BC LNG, now of course those new sections long gone and scuttled, you can only rerun the same stories for so long, hard to sell the public a pipe-dream with empty pages..
Christy Clark and Rich Coleman made these statements about LNG export revenue and jobs.
"Three LNG plants will create over 100,000 jobs for British Columbia"
"LNG revenues will eliminate our BC debt"
"LNG revenues will fund a $100 billion dollar prosperity fund"
Those two above mentioned liars Christy Clark and Rich Coleman said a whole lot more than that....
Christy Clark said during our 2013 provincial election that British Columbia would have two LNG export facilities up and running by 2015...
Here we are, 2015 is here and there is still not one shovel in the ground, no final investment decisions by any energy companies and not only have oil prices crashed but natural gas prices have retreated to near record low levels, even spot market rates for LNG are but half of what there were in 2013....And with LNG prices linked to oil prices, or as they say, indexed to the price of oil, future forecasts for LNG pricing makes the prospect of any Canadian LNG export projects going ahead very unlikely, unless the BC Government offers more substantial tax and royalty concessions, ....Which they could but to what end, fiscal numbers projected early on are out the door, no longer would B.C. see any debt reduction and as for debt elimination or a prosperity fund, pure fantasy, adding more concessions, bigger rebates and scaled up tax-breaks British Columbia would dive even deeper into debt...And for what reason, to prove a point, to pretend we know what we are doing or to punish us BCers for having fiscal doubts.
Yes indeed, it is possible to cook the books on an LNG industry(If one actually starts)for at least decade while companies write-off facilities and recoup inflated build costs but eventually someone would have to break the news to the public that an LNG industry riddled with concessions, tax breaks and provincial credits is not making us money but costing us $billions, putting us in the proverbial poorhouse..
The LNG game in British Columbia is virtually over...Today more bad news on the LNG front arrived on British Columbia`s shoreline......First things first..
Let`s go back to April-20th /2011 shall we....The beginning of Christy Clark`s LNG wet dream..
Quicksilver boosts Canada's nascent LNG industry
"Export plans to speed Horn River development; all three planned LNG export projects are viable
THE US' Quicksilver Resources boosted the prospect for Canadian liquefied natural gas (LNG) exports to Asia as one of several outlets for steadily building production from British Columbia's (BC) shale-gas deposits. Should one, or all of the three proposals to establish LNG export terminals on the BC coast come to fruition, Texas-based unconventional gas player Quicksilver will "be an important part of the marketing picture for the Horn River play", said company chairman Toby Darden. Quicksilver said the three projects are "likely to benefit all producers by [opening] additional markets for the massive resource potential" of the Horn River basin. The most advanced of the three is Kitimat LNG, a partnership of Apache (operator), EOG Resources and Encana. The 0.7bn cubic feet a day (cf/d) plant would come on line in 2015, assuming it has firm sales commitments by the end of this year"
Read more: http://www.petroleum-economist.com/Article/2811029/Quicksilver-boosts-Canadas-nascent-LNG-industry.html#ixzz3OKpbPrxf
This was around the start of Christy Clark`s hyping, spinning, blustering, and honing her election lies, a total fabricated con job designed to fool the public into thinking we would become rich, a ruse that BC`s lame, lazy and spineless media ran with ....For over four years we have been hearing BC Liberal white noise announcements on LNG projects and the coming riches.
Keep the bluster going, let`s get the people on board..September/2013...
"But Quicksilver Resources is serious about seeing the project happen, says senior vice president and chief operating officer David Rushford.
"When you try to develop these projects, one of the things you look for is a supportive community," Rushford said. "The community is totally behind us.........
Quicksilver intends to begin the regulatory process later this year. Pending regulatory approvals and permits, construction for the first phase of the potential project is expected to take approximately four years, with the project anticipated to be operational by 2019."
From the hype in 2011, everyone jumping on Asia`s deep pockets, ready to shake-down our Asian neighbors, including Christy Clark who repeatedly through our 2013 provincial election told British Columbia`s voters that..
"We can receive 5 and 6 times the north American price for our gas, we can retire our debt, create a $100 billion dollar prosperity fund by shipping our gas to Japan"
Japan had just suffered a big earthquake and massive tsunami, that geological event resulted in a nuclear accident, Japan was suddenly forced to shut down most of their existing electricity sources, leaving Japan starved for power...And dear old "families first" Christy Clark was there at the ready to shake-down our friends from Japan...Japan to go broke while BC lives in the lap of debt free luxury.....Oh indeed, Japan has no better friend than Christy Clark....?
The shoe is on the other foot now with Japan restarting their nuclear plants and with current Asian LNG pricing, and more, the price of LNG futures going forward is less money than what we can produce LNG for..Thus destroying Christy Clark`s LNG wet dream before she be(came) satisfied..
LNG price contracting going well past 2020 is now at a price point below the cost British Columbia can produce LNG for, a massive LNG glut exists today with staggering amounts of new supply under construction around the world..Australia, Qatar, Russia, East Africa to name but a few...
And it`s not just Quicksilver Resources having trouble, look at the players QuickSilver was to partner with in their 2011 press release(above)
EnCana Gas...EOG Resources...Apache...Everyone of those major energy players have said goodbye to British Columbia...
And still Rich Coleman and Christy Clark cling to LNG revenue and job promises, only now the projections are vague, time periods extended and money totals watered down..
Now we move up 2014....Quicksilver is now again looking for partners, actually Quicksilver is looking for someone, anyone with money...
Quicksilver seeks LNG partner
"Proponents for the Campbell River LNG project, Texas based Quicksilver Resources has deferred further spending on its shale-gas assets amid negotiations for an LNG project partner. Current planning calls for the proposed LNG export terminal to be operated by a downstream partnership between Quicksilver and a third-party company as yet unnamed. The feed-gas for Discovery LNG would come from the Horn River Basin in northeast BC, one of Canada's prolific shale-gas areas and already earmarked to supply resources for several other LNG export plants. The company has filed an application with the NEB to export up to 20 million tons/year with a start up date of 2021."
The new start-up date for Quicksilver....2021.....How about I tell you Quicksilver`s real timeline for exporting LNG.....NEVER....They are now caput too..
Quicksilver gets NYSE de-listing notice
"Cash-strapped Quicksilver Resources has been notified by the New York Stock Exchange that it is in danger of being de-listed due to its stock trading at below $1 for more than 30 consecutive days"
http://www.upstreamonline.com/live/1379776/Quicksilver-gets-NYSE-de-listing-notice
So let`s have a look....Petronas....Gone.....British Gas...out the door.
EOG Resources...Moved on....Apache.....Caputsky..
EnCana Gas....Not interested in LNG in BC....And now Texas based Quicksilver Resources cast-strapped, broke, de-listed and no longer playing the game..
Meanwhile our minister of hot air, full of gas Rich Coleman is still blathering up a storm....What you need to remember about Rich Coleman is this..
Rich Coleman is set to retire within the next year or so, he doesn`t care what he says anymore, he won`t be around to criticize over British Columbia`s LNG failures..
How much more evidence do you need or require to realize LNG in British Columbia is dead issue? Even the BC Liberal Government must know in their heads that LNG in British Columbia is done, caput..
Proof of that is the Translink referendum, BC Hydro increases, ICBC increases, ferry fare increases, MSP increases...Every thing, every tax is scheduled to rise and rise and rise some more...There hasn`t been one statement from the BC Liberals about rolling back taxes, or adding to our BC debt temporarily as we await the $trillion dollar LNG industry to soar...
UPDATED HERE(January 10/2015)
DROPPING LIKE FLIES these proponents be, one of our regular contributors Elwood, in comments left information on another proposed LNG project that was getting out of British Columbia..And a little search revealed this..
From November 2013......
Aurora LNG applies to NEB for Grassy Point export licence
From Robin Rowland
Prince Rupert, World November 29, 2013
Aurora LNG, a partnership headed by Nexen, the Canadian branch of CNOOC, one of China's largest energy companies, has applied to the National Energy Board for an export licence to ship 24 million tonnes of liquified natural gas over 25 years to Asian customers from Grassy Point near Prince Rupert.
Two Japanese companies, Inpex Corp and JGC are partners with CNNOC in the joint venture.
The application comes just two weeks after the BC government gave Aurora "the right to pursue long-term access to Crown land" at Grassy Point, which is just south of the border with the Alaska Panhandle.
http://nwcoastenergynews.com/2013/11/29/5419/aurora-lng-applies-neb-grassy-point-export-licence/
This week(January 6th/2015) Aurora LNG made it official, they`re out too, adios, out of British Columbia for good!

Dear Mr. Janko:
Thank you for your letter dated January 6, 2015 Requesting that the Aurora LNG Grassy Point Project(proposed project)be withdrawn from the provincial environmental assessment(EA) process. The Environmental Office(EAO)is in agreement with your request and has reflected the "withdrawn status" on our website.
EAO intends to post this letter, with your letter attached to our website and to reflect the status of the EA for the proposed project.
If you have any questions, please contact me by email at
Tavis.McDonald@gov.bc.ca
or by phone at 250-638-5172

LET`S ADD TO THAT OUT THE DOOR LIST....
CNOOC(Chinese National Offshore Oil Company) out of British Columbia...JAPAN`S INPEX--See you later and JAPAN GAS CO. --Adios Muchachos...
Meanwhile, like I said, Rich Coleman will blow hot air about LNG until the very last day before he retires with his taxpayer`s funded riches...
The Province of British Columbia expects its LNG industry to take flight in 2015 as it expects developers to make final investment decisions on several projects.
"According to the Minister of Natural gas development, Rich Coleman, as many as 100,000 new jobs could be created through diversification with the natural gas sector.
First Nations also stand to gain from the promise of LNG with the finalization of many new benefit agreements in 2015, similar to the one recently signed with the Nisga'a Nation that allows them to collect property tax on their land for industrial operations.
Coleman added that over the last year, the Province has put in place a competitive policy framework that defines the playing field. The LNG income tax framework gives companies the certainty they need to make investment decisions, while legislation has been passed to establish greenhouse gas emission targets that will make B.C. LNG facilities the cleanest in the world.
B.C. currently has 18 proposals for LNG export operations while five have been issued the Environmental Assessment certificates.
Coleman further said that realizing British Columbia's LNG goal will take time, and a lot has already been achieved"
http://www.lngworldnews.com/bc-expects-lng-lift-off-in-2015/
And in the even more British Columbia bad LNG news department, in the below linked article posted in the Financial Post, no one believes Rich Coleman, the article linked directly below is literally calling Rich Coleman`s above prediction/statement...Very suspect!
http://business.financialpost.com/2015/01/08/no-white-knight-coming-distressed-natural-gas-producers-hunker-down-amid-new-energy-reality/?__lsa=7fbd-d19b
Yea, sure thing Rich Coleman....Can you say DE-LUS-IONAL?
You and Christy Clark, blinded by science.....Science of the stupid

I thought this was interesting:
"Even if oil rebounds, the province (Alberta) could still face a structural deficit in the range of $4 billion to $5 billion in a few years, potentially turning it into a have-not province."
http://www.cbc.ca/news/business/alberta-faces-structural-deficit-even-if-oil-rebounds-td-says-1.3001177
After all is said & done..... if & when an LNG proposal actually starts putting shovels in the ground...Christy Clark & her gang will be there to tell us all "LNG is on time as promised "
This of course will be substantiated by the good folks in the MSM.

Marjorie Perloff: A celebration
Al Filreis
J. Gordon Faylor
'The Futurist Moment'
Jean-Michel Rabaté
The Futurist Moment: Avant-Garde, Avant Guerre, and the Language of Rupture (University of Chicago Press, 2003) has always been my favorite book by Marjorie Perloff. This book has inspired my own 1913 book, less by the choice of its historical focus than by its method. What the Futurist Moment manages to do so well is to be both historical, by bringing into the discussion a wealth of details and facts, and also current, keeping antennae for relevant contemporary issues. Perloff historicizes and problematizes at the same time, without encumbering herself with the trappings of heavy theory. That was to set a durable example for me in 1986. Most chapters begin with discussions of Cendrars, Marinetti, Pound, Delaunay, Malevitch, Tatlin, and end with Cage, Smithson, Antin, Derrida, or Barthes. Perloff bypasses antiquarian history to usher in a Poundian historiography, investigating the past with a view of the new(s) that stays new(s). It is a book written with a purpose, the form of a teleology geared to the Now. This has allowed it to retain its power of seduction and conviction, which is also why it has not aged a bit a quarter of a century later.
She avoids writing another book on Futurism — this has been done and will be done again, with more details and other archives — by giving us a book on the futurist moment, a word that should be understood in German: "momentum" and "Kraftwirkung," the calculation of dynamic applications of work — as in physics — to a reality seen as a network of forces. They shape history by making it work, and, at the same time, making it mean.
Hence the decision to begin with Cendrars, a poet who never identified with futurism as a movement. It would have been different had Marjorie chosen Apollinaire, who, after all, had a "futurist moment." Why Cendrars? Because of his superb "Prose du Trans-sibérien," a poem magnificently illustrated by Sonia Delaunay. Its scrolls festoon all the pages of this book. Here is another way for me to relate to this book: it is an extended meditation on the Eiffel Tower. It is because of my great-uncles that I feel a personal connection with the iconic Parisian monument. One of them was in charge of supervising the exact formula for the repeated applications of paint without whose layers of anti-rust cover the edifice would have crumbled (this fact would call up for me the family business of underwater paints inherited by Italo Svevo in Trieste). Another uncle, a lovely man but a bad poet, had published a sonnet that I had memorized in my youth; it ended with an image of the winter sun setting in Paris, seen at the base of the tower by the viewer as it turned into a mass of molten iron beaten into shape by a monstrous anvil!
In an essay by Roland Barthes often quoted in The Futurist Moment, the French critic revisits the Eiffel Tower and makes the extraordinary claim that to meditate on its structure automatically makes people become intelligent — which may be true, but does not for all that make them good poets. Barthes shows that as soon as one examines the Tower, one perceives it as a structure without a function, and he defines "structure" as "a corpus of intelligent forms."[1] Sooner or later, any tourist visiting Paris will have to see the Tower, both a site to look at and to see from. Its unavoidable mystery forces the visitor's intelligence to try and understand its rationale, which will lead to new decipherments. Every visitor of the Tower turns into a Structuralist without knowing it! Indeed, once we reduce a city to a panorama, hence to a system of signs, we are seized by intellectual passion, the euphoria of an aerial vision leading to "bliss."
One will have understood that by paraphrasing Barthes on the Eiffel Tower, I am describing the effect of Marjorie Perloff's book: indeed, it makes you become intelligent by giving you the ability to see suddenly new connections between texts, objects, and history. What she avoids in her exploration of Futurism is Barthes's belief that the Tower is unique, a "total monument" to be found only in Paris. Perloff is too cosmopolitan to fall into the trap of such chauvinism. Her Towers are Russian, Italian, German, and American, when finally the Tower spreads out as a spiral in Smithson's famous jetty. This is how the future becomes the Now, as John Cage suggests in his witty endorsement of The Futurist Moment.

About this feature
This Jacket2 feature is devoted to the life and work of Marjorie Perloff, whose critical inquiry over the course of more than three decades combines the pragmatism of lucid analysis with the sociohistorically informed commentary of distant reading to arrive at what Charles Bernstein calls "an inductive criticism grounded in a grappling with the poem at hand." Jacket2 publisher Al Filreis brings together a number of different poets and critics for discussions of Perloff's critical legacy as well as reflections on the interpretive craft she has shaped for American poetics.

Nanni Balestrini's Blackout is a requiem for the generation of 1968, whose hopes and ideals were exhausted by the time of the poem's composition in 1979. The original impetus for the poem was the blackout in New York on July 13, 1977, that lasted for twenty-five hours and drew widespread media attention due to countless episodes of violence and looting.

Don't Get Sucked in by the Gloomy Headlines: The World's Getting Better and Better
It's time for our annual dose of reality. Let's start the New Year with a perspective check. We've heard way too much from the "nattering nabobs of negativity," purveyors of pessimism, and deliverers of doom. Let's ditch the "crap glasses" and get real. Let's look at what's truly going on in the world.
This annual New Year's blog on how the world continues its relentless march of continuous improvement has become our most inspiring and favorite to research and produce. This tradition started five years ago with "A Dose of Reality: Our World is Dramatically Better." The following year we reported, "Despite Dire Headlines, the World is Getting Much, Much Better." The next year we added to our long and growing list of positive facts with "Beyond the Doom and Gloom: Over 65 Ways Our World Keeps Getting Better." Last year we piled on even more evidence with "Don't Get Dragged Down by all the Negative News: Life's Better Than Ever."
One of my favorite books to read in the past year was Matt Ridley's The Rational Optimist. He's "write on" with these comments, "No matter how persuasive our evidence, we routinely encounter disbelief and even hostility, as if accentuating the positive was callous. People cling to pessimism about the state of the world. John Stuart Mill neatly summarized this tendency as far back as 1828: 'I have observed that not the man who hopes when others despair, but the man who despairs when others hope, is admired by a large class of persons as a sage.' It's cool to be gloomy."
Many authors of the books and articles highlighted in these New Year's blogs point out humans are hardwired to look for weaknesses and what's wrong. Ridley writes, "We're even capable of fretting about the bounty of prosperity, as 'Weird Al' Yankovic highlights in his clever song, 'First World Problems': 'The thread count on these cotton sheets has got me itching/My house is so big, I can't get Wi-Fi in the kitchen.'"
Here's a fraction of the good news reported in the past year:
85.8% of the world's one-year-old children have been vaccinated against some disease, but pessimism based on anti-vaxxer negative news abounds. A poll of Americans showed they felt only 35% of the world's children are vaccinated. Japanese feel it's just 18%.
Smallpox has been vaccinated out of existence. This has saved around 5 million lives per year and between 150 to 200 million lives between 1980 and 2018.
Since 1990, global average income has increased by 55%. For the first time in 10,000 years over 50% of the world have enough income to be considered middle class or rich.
2017 was the first year there were no commercial passenger plane deaths at all with over 4 billion people in the air.
Global suicide rates have fallen by 29% since 2000.
Between 1980 and 2017 the world's population increased by 69% from 4.46 to 7.55 billion, yet resources are more abundant than ever. The CATO Institute researchers found "humanity is experiencing superabundance."
In the past 25 years, the share of people living in extreme poverty around the world fell from 36% to 10%. 200 years ago 90% of the world lived in extreme poverty.
Violent crime in America has dropped 75% since the early 1990s. The chances of an American being killed by a terrorist in the USA in 1 in 3.5 billion — less chance than drowning in a bathtub.
Since 180 countries signed the Montreal Protocol to phase out chemicals like CFCs, the ozone layer is now improving about 3% per decade and should be fully restored in the Northern Hemisphere by 2030 and Antarctica by 2060.
Global life expectancy has increased by 10 years since 1980.
The number of annual deaths from natural disasters has been cut in half in the past 100 years.
Child mortality has been halved in the past 20 years.
2/3 of the world lives in a democracy.
Since 1990, winter smog is down by 77% and summer smog by 22% while the U.S. population has grown rapidly.
The 2018 Social Progress Index reports "overall the world is getting better, with 133 of the 146 countries seeing an overall improvement in social progress."
The 2018 Report of the Global Commission on the Economy and Climates concludes, "We are on the cusp of a new economic era: one where growth is driven by the interaction between rapid technological innovation, sustainable infrastructure investment, and increased resource productivity."
Pessimists often call themselves realists. Really? It's completely unrealistic to believe the world's getting worse. The evidence clearly and overwhelmingly shows we're better off with each passing year.
But what about global warming, economic uncertainty, rising populism, famine, war, the refugee crisis, or ballooning debt levels. As Gregg Easterbrook writes in It's Better Than It Looks: Reasons for Optimism in an Age of Fear, "There is a great deal to worry about. But while worrying, be optimistic. Optimism does not make us blind to the many faults of the world. Rather, optimism is the conviction that problems can be solved if we roll up our sleeves and get to work… optimism is the best argument for reform — and the bow that propels the arrow of history."
My very favorite book of the past year is Harvard professor, researcher, and author Steven Pinker's latest, Enlightenment Now: The Case for Reason, Science, Humanism, and Progress.

Pinker opens the Progress section of his book with the words of Barack Obama, "If you had to choose a moment in history to be born, and you did not know ahead of time who you would be — you didn't know whether you were going to be born into a wealthy family or a poor family, what country you'd be born in, whether you were going to be a man or a woman — if you had to choose blindly what moment you'd want to be born, you'd choose now."

Guanosine diphosphate mannose or GDP-mannose is a nucleotide sugar that is a substrate for glycosyltransferase reactions in metabolism. This compound is a substrate for enzymes called mannosyltransferases.

Known as donor of activated mannose in all glycolytic reactions, GDP-mannose is essential in eukaryotes.

Biosynthesis
GDP-mannose is produced from GTP and mannose-6-phosphate by the enzyme mannose-1-phosphate guanylyltransferase.

One of the enzymes from the family of nucleootidyl-transferases, GDP-Mannose Pyrophosphorylase (GDP-MP) is an pervasive enzyme found in bacteria, fungi, plants, and animals.

Heideman Poor LLC, John F. Poor, Denver, Colorado, for Amicus Curiae Colorado Trial Lawyers Association
Fox and Márquez [*] , JJ., concur
JUDGMENT AFFIRMED
JUDGE WEBB
¶ 1 This premises liability case presents a novel question in Colorado: whether the collateral source rule - codified in section 10-1-135(10)(a), C.R.S. 2017, and section 13-21-111.6, C.R.S. 2017 - applies to Medicare benefits. We conclude that it does.
¶ 2 Wal-Mart Stores, Inc., appeals the judgment entered on a jury verdict in favor of Robert P. Forfar III, for injuries he sustained when he slipped and fell at a Wal-Mart store. The judgment included $44, 000 in economic damages for the reasonable value of medical services that Mr. Forfar, a Medicare beneficiary, had received.
¶ 3 Before trial, Wal-Mart moved to exclude evidence of Mr. Forfar's medical expenses owed under agreements that he had entered into with his medical services providers. Wal-Mart argued that because these agreements were null and void under Medicare regulations, evidence of the reasonable value of those medical services should be "limited to the Medicare approved charges for the services."[1] Mr. Forfar also moved in limine to exclude any evidence that he had received Medicare benefits, arguing that such benefits constituted a collateral source.
¶ 4 The trial court ruled that Wal-Mart could "not present evidence to the jury as to the amount of the Medicare limits." The court also ruled that Mr. Forfar "may not present evidence of private contracts between himself and any of the Third-Party Medical Providers." Still, it allowed him to "present evidence of the reasonable value of the medical services . . . and such value need not be based upon the Medicare limits." The trial proceeded according to this ruling, with Mr. Forfar seeking damages of $72, 636 as the reasonable value of the medical services.
¶ 5 After trial, Wal-Mart moved to reduce the damages under section 13-21-111.6. It argued that the economic damages awarded for Mr. Forfar's medical expenses "should be reduced to Medicare accepted rates." The trial court denied the motion, holding that Medicare benefits fall within the contract exception to the collateral source rule of section 13-21-111.6.
¶ 6 Wal-Mart challenges both of these rulings on appeal. We affirm.
¶ 7 In Colorado, the collateral source rule has both a pre-verdict evidentiary component and a post-verdict component. The evidentiary component is codified at section 10-1-135(10)(a). See Smith v. Jeppsen, 2012 CO 32, ¶ 19 (stating that section 10-1-135(10)(a) "unambiguously codifies" the common law collateral source rule). The post-verdict component is codified at section 13-21-111.6. Because this case involves both components, they require separate discussion.
¶ 8 Generally, under the collateral source rule, "compensation or indemnity received by an injured party from a collateral source, wholly independent of the wrongdoer and to which the wrongdoer has not contributed, will not diminish the damages otherwise recoverable [by the injured party] from the wrongdoer." Colo. Permanente Med. Grp., P.C. v. Evans, 926 P.2d 1218, 1230 (Colo. 1996) (quoting Kistler v. Halsey, 173 Colo. 540, 545, 481 P.2d 722, 724 (1971)).
¶ 9 Pre-verdict, this doctrine applies "to bar evidence of collateral source benefits because such evidence could lead the fact-finder to improperly reduce the plaintiff's damages award on the grounds that the plaintiff already recovered his loss from the collateral source." Wal-Mart Stores, Inc. v. Crossgrove, 2012 CO 31, ¶ 12. Section 10-1-135(10)(a) provides, "[t]he fact or amount of any collateral source payment or benefits shall not be admitted as evidence in any action against an alleged third-party tortfeasor."
¶ 10 Still, our supreme court has recognized some tension between "the pre-verdict evidentiary component of the collateral source rule that controls this case and the reasonable value rule." Crossgrove, ¶ 19. Specifically, "the correct measure of damages is the necessary and reasonable value of the [medical] services rendered." Kendall v. Hargrave, 142 Colo. 120, 123, 349 P.2d 993, 994 (1960). And to prove that value, the amount paid for medical services is "some evidence of their reasonable value." Id.
¶ 11 But what happens if evidence of the amount paid would disclose a collateral source, thus risking that the jury could improperly reduce the damages award for that reason?
¶ 12 In Crossgrove, ¶ 20, the supreme court resolved this tension by holding that "the pre-verdict evidentiary component of the collateral source rule prevails in collateral source cases to bar the admission of the amounts paid for medical services." It explained:
Admitting amounts paid evidence for any purpose, including the purpose of determining reasonable value, in a collateral source case carries with it an unjustifiable risk that the jury will infer the existence of a collateral source - most commonly an insurer - from the evidence, and thereby improperly diminish the plaintiff's damages award.
Id. Particularly relevant here, the court offered an example: "[T]he government sets the rates that providers who honor public insurance programs, like Medicare and Medicaid, must accept for certain services," which "are often significantly lower than those billed by the provider." Id. at ¶ 22.
¶ 13 As to the post-verdict component, start with the rule: section 13-21-111.6 "requires the trial court to reduce a successful plaintiff's verdict as a matter of law by the amount the plaintiff 'has been or will be wholly or partially indemnified or compensated for his loss by any other person, corporation, insurance company or fund in relation to the injury . . . sustained.'" Id. at ¶ 14 (quoting § 13-21-111.6). Then consider the exception: the statute preserves the common law post-verdict component of the collateral source doctrine "to a limited extent by prohibiting trial courts from reducing a plaintiff's verdict by the amount of indemnification or compensation that the plaintiff has received, or will receive in the future, from 'a benefit paid as a result of a contract entered into and paid for by or on behalf of the plaintiff.'" Id. at ¶ 15 (quoting § 13-21-111.6).
¶ 14 So, given all this, what more need be said? A lot, according to Wal-Mart, because the case involves Medicare - a context in which the collateral source rule has yet to be addressed by any Colorado court. After walking us through a labyrinth of federal statutes and regulations, Wal-Mart asserts the following:
• because Mr. Forfar's providers, who are covered by Part B of the Medicare program, failed to submit an affidavit opting out of Medicare, they cannot recover more than Medicare allows for their services, see 42 U.S.C. § 1395b-3 (2012); 42 U.S.C. § 1395u(b)(18)(B) (2012); 42 C.F.R. § 405.420 (2017);
• to the extent that the providers' private contracts with him provided otherwise, because those contracts did not comply with the disclosure requirements of Medicare, they are - as the trial court found - null and void, see 42 U.S.C. § 1395a(b)(2)(B)(i)-(v) (2012); 42 C.F.R. § 405.405(c) (2017); 42 C.F.R. § 405.415 (2017); 42 C.F.R. § 405.430(b)(1) (2017);
• "no person" can be liable above the Medicare limits for medical services provided to a Medicare beneficiary, see 42 U.S.C. § 1395u(b)(18)(B) ("No person is liable for payment of any amounts billed for such a service in violation of the previous sentence."); 42 U.S.C. § 1395w-4(g)(1)(A)(ii) (2012) ("No person is liable for payment of any amounts billed for the service in excess of such limiting charge."); and
• insofar as the collateral source rule or section 13-21-111.6 may provide for greater liability, they are preempted by Medicare.
         ¶ 15 For his part, Mr. Forfar agrees that he was covered by Medicare based on his Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) benefits. Even so, after taking his own exhaustive tour of both federal statutes and regulations, he responds that under Barnett v. American Family Mutual Insurance Co.,843 P.2d 1302 (Colo. 1993), Medicare is a collateral source, which triggers the ...

Teenage Kicks (TV series)
Teenage Kicks (band)
"Teenage Kicks" is the debut single by Northern Irish punk rock/new wave band The Undertones. Written in the summer of 1977 by the band's principal songwriter, John O'Neill, the song was recorded on 16 June 1978 and initially released that September upon independent Belfast record label Good Vibrations, before the band—at the time unobligated to any record label—signed to Sire Records on 2 October 1978. Sire Records subsequently obtained all copyrights to the material released upon the Teenage Kicks EP and the song was re-released as a standard vinyl single upon Sire's own label on 14 October that year, reaching number 31 in the UK Singles Chart.
The single was not included upon the original May 1979 release of the band's debut album The Undertones; however, the October 1979 re-release of this debut album included both "Teenage Kicks" and the Undertones' second single, "Get Over You".
Influential BBC Radio 1 DJ John Peel is known to have opined "Teenage Kicks" to be his all-time favourite song from 1978 until his death in 2004.

Teenage Kicks is a British sitcom starring Adrian Edmondson, Ed Coleman and Laura Aikman, filmed at Teddington Studios. Originally as a radio show for BBC Radio 2 in 2007, it was turned into a TV series by Phil McIntyre Productions for ITV. The show ran for 8 episodes beginning 28 March 2008 although the show was not recommissioned for any further series.
The opening theme tune is "Teenage Kicks" by the band The Undertones.
Adrian Edmondson - Vernon Heath
Ed Coleman - Max Heath
Laura Aikman - Milly Heath
Jonathon Chan-Pensley - David
Mark Arden - Bryan
Vernon Heath (Edmondson) is a 49-year-old former front man for a punk rock band called "The Plague". After living off his wife for the last two decades and spending most of his time in the pub, the two are getting a divorce, and Vernon is forced to move into a student flat in Kilburn, London, occupied by his children Max (Ed Coleman) and Milly (Laura Aikman), as well as their flatmate David (Jonathan Chan-Pensley). Vernon believes that moving in with them will rekindle his old world. However, Max, Milly and David are disgusted by him, and his best friend and former Plague member Bryan (Mark Arden) appears to have "sold-out", now working as a deputy head teacher of a primary school and happily married.

Teenage Kicks were a Canadian alternative rock band based in Toronto, Canada. The band consisted of brothers Peter and Jeff van Helvoort.
Teenage Kicks formed in early 2010 and began performing by the summer of the same year in support of their first 7" release, which featured the songs "Shook Our Bones" and "I Get What You Give". The original lineup was rounded out by the addition of Cameron Brunt on drums and Patrick Marchent on guitar. This was the configuration used when the band began work on their first self-produced EP titled "Rational Anthems" near the end of 2010. The EP was released on April 29, 2011. The EP garnered a good amount of positive press and put the band onto stage with an array of artists from Sloan to AWOLNATION to Kaiser Chiefs. By the fall of 2011 the band had added Christian Turner on guitar in order to become a five piece. They began work on their next self-produced EP, "Be On My Side", which was released on March 2, 2012 and was mixed by Dan Weston (Attack in Black, Shad, Classified). The band also launched a free music service known simply as "The Singles Club", which offers no-cost downloads to members on a bi-monthly basis. The Club releases thus far have delved into covers, b-sides, alternate versions and a full-length live album.

A couple of weeks ago, I decided to test my "power of one" theory on laundry. Because, well, I hate laundry (don't we all?) and thought it would interesting to see if I could "make friends" with this unending chore. Reality is that I would much rather be creating something than doing laundry. Can I get an "amen"!
Before I tell you what happened, let me set the stage. I think we all know how this goes. I would lug the heavy basket downstairs to do laundry weekly or whenever the hamper started overflowing. It came to the point that I bought multiple baskets so that when the hamper started overflowing, I would have basket to catch the overflow.
Back to my experiment, I set the ground rules, of course, being flexible to allow for unexpected things thrown into my schedule – one load of laundry per day, from start to finish, including washing, drying, folding and putting away. Simple.
My experiment started out like normal. I threw a full load into the wash in the morning. At bedtime, the wet load went into the drier. The next morning I got up and threw a second full load into the wash. I spent the next 15 mins folding the load from the previous day and put it all away. I stepped away and went on with my day. In the evening, the wet clothes went into the dryer to be folded in the morning.
The next day and the day after that was the same. But I did notice my hamper getting emptier, which was great. Progress but pretty typical. It wasn't until my basket was completely empty that my experiment got very interesting.
So previously, when I had an empty hamper I would dust off my hands and consider my chore done. Check that off the list until next week.
The next day, again the hamper was almost empty but I had to come up with one load. So in went my pj's, my shower towel and my clothes from the day before. I set the wash setting down to low since the load was so small and went about my day.
The day that followed, the empty hamper watched as I looked for the required "one load". I threw in a tiny load and proceeded to fold the small load from the day before. Folding took me less than 5 mins because I had only to fold one outfit and a towel.
And this, my friend, is where my experiment has plateaued into a very minimal routine of taking 5 things down to be washed in the morning, folding 5 things to be put away and drying 5 things in the night. My new laundry routine takes me as long as it does to brush my teeth in the morning & the night.
My closets are completely stuffed. I don't have space for anything more even though I just did a purge a few months ago. In fact, I could do with another purge to free up space. Now, I understand how a place of minimalize can actually happen.
All of my clothes are always clean. I don't have to run around looking for missing outfit pieces, which saves an extra 5 minutes in the morning.
Carrying 5 things down to the washing machine every day is a lot lighter and takes less physical energy than lugging a huge, overflowing, hamper to the basement.
But the biggest takeaway from this experiment is that it has completely opened my eyes to time management. If you break things down into very small chunks and do them daily, you eventually get through the backlog and find the maintenance simplified.
True story… I spend less than a total of 15 minutes per day on laundry. That particular chore is not going anywhere, so I might as well come up with a solution to minimize it. The rest of my day is freed up for CREATING. No how fun is that!

Thread: Final Fantasy 7 is Finally Coming to Mobile
Fans of the JRPG classic Final Fantasy 7 might have a nostalgic fit when they find out this news. Final Fantasy 7 is being ported to mobile devices and will be coming to iOS and Android. The game will be out for iOS first later this summer.
It has not been shared how much longer it will take to come to Android, but we suspect it won't be too long. Square Enix (the game's developer) also did not share pricing details, but you can probably expect it to be in the $15 range.
It's also worth noting that you can actually plan the game on Android right now, but it requires an emulator and jumping through some hoops. This will be an official version that will work natively on your mobile device.

i think, when come to mobile, it is for somebody never play final fantasy vii before, because fan of this game have play many time on pc or ps version, even mobile, they can play with emulator :D. Anyway, this is a good new for ff fan ^_^

Preliminary safety and efficacy of L-carnitine infusion for the treatment of vasopressor-dependent septic shock: a randomized control trial.

Sepsis is characterized by metabolic disturbances, and previous data suggest a relative carnitine deficiency may contribute to metabolic dysfunction. Studies regarding safety and patient-centered efficacy of carnitine during septic shock are lacking.
This was a double-blind randomized control trial of levocarnitine (L-carnitine) infusion vs normal saline for the treatment of vasopressor-dependent septic shock. Patients meeting consensus definition for septic shock with a cumulative vasopressor index ≥ 3 and sequential organ failure assessment (SOFA) score ≥ 5 enrolled within 16 hours of the recognition of septic shock were eligible. The primary safety outcome was difference in serious adverse events (SAEs) per patient between groups. Efficacy outcomes included proportion of patients demonstrating a decrease in SOFA score of 2 or more points at 24 hours and short- and long-term survival.
Of the 31 patients enrolled, 16 were in the L-carnitine and 15 were in the placebo arm. There was no difference in SAEs between placebo and intervention (2.1 vs 1.8 SAEs per patient, P = .44). There was no difference in the proportion of patients achieving a decrease in SOFA score of 2 or more points at 24 hours between placebo and treatment (53% vs 44%, P = .59). Mortality was significantly lower at 28 days in the L-carnitine group (4/16 vs 9/15, P = .048), with a nonsignificant improved survival at 1 year (P = .06).
L-carnitine infusion appears safe in vasopressor-dependent septic shock. Preliminary efficacy data suggest potential benefit of L-carnitine treatment, and further testing is indicated.
