Q: How to exclude covariates of a Cox model? I am using the Cox regression model to forecast failures of machines. I have several possible covariates. I ran the analysis in SPSS. The method I used to add covariates was backward stepwise (Wald).
My question is that after I got the results, which is the table 'Variables in the Equation' (see below), I can see that some covariates are not significant: for example, Cate and PCPT are not significant.
Can I still use this solution? I mean excluding the ones which are not significant, but keep the rest, and use the coefficients $\exp(B)$ for the other covariates in the Cox regression equation $h(t)=h_0(t)\exp(zx)$?
Or I should exclude these two non-significant covariates when I add them to SPSS and get a new solution in which all the covariates are significant?
Variables in the Equation
          B     SE   Wald df  Sig. Exp(B)
ACT     -.004 .001 31.814  1 .000   .996
TPCPT    .002 .001  6.287  1 .012  1.002
ALT      .008 .001 31.046  1 .000  1.008
MALTCPT 1.315 .204 41.465  1 .000  3.723
LTCPT   2.101 .592 12.601  1 .000  8.176
Cate     .076 .046  2.743  1 .098  1.079
PCPT     .004 .002  3.611  1 .057  1.004

A: It is not statistically correct to remove "insignificant" variables, just as stepwise regression (without penalization) is invalid.  Much has been written about this topic.

Disclosure to investors opens door on settlement.
A closer look at the case involving Dakota Dunes-based BPI and ABC News.
The parent company of ABC News paid as much as $177 million to settle litigation associated with a defamation lawsuit filed by a South Dakota beef processing company, according to a financial report released to investors.
Walt Disney Co., the owner of ABC, made the disclosure to investors in its quarterly report on Tuesday. The company reported a one-time charge of $177 million "incurred in connection with the settlement of litigation," according to the report. The charge did not include penalties covered by insurance.
Dakota Dunes-based BPI filed a defamation suit against ABC and reporter Jim Avila in 2012 after a series of reports that described the company's Lean Finely Textured Beef products as "pink slime." Following ABC's reports, the company closed three of its four plants and laid off more than half its workforce as BPI's customers stopped including LFTB in their hamburger specifications.
A trial commenced in June in the basement of the Union County, South Dakota courthouse in Elk Point, a spectacle that routinely involved nearly two dozen lawyers on any given day. BPI claimed damages of $1.9 billion, but under a South Dakota law that prohibits malicious disparagement of food products, those damages could have been tripled.
The trial was expected to last up to two months. But both sides abruptly announced a settlement on June 28. The terms of the settlement were not released.
But last month, Regina Roth, the wife of BPI founder Eldon Roth, told a Sioux City Rotary Club that they were happy with the settlement, telling the audience "there were a lot of zeroes, so it was a serious decision," according to a report by the Sioux City Journal.
"At this time, the Company is not able to predict the ultimate outcome of this matter, nor can it estimate the range of possible loss," it noted in the annual report.

The truck tire hole looks suspicious to me. Why is the rubber inside the hole the same color and wear as the outside of the tire? Shouldn't it be somewhat cleaner rubber?
I agree that the punctured tire photo is almost certainly fake.
Not only is the image dubious, but the physics behind it doesn't make sense.
Those traffic cones are relatively flexible, and hollow all the way through; a tire like that would smash it flat, not be cut through by it.
It's possible the orange cones were placed there to mark the spot of the STEEL PIPE STICKING VERTICALLY FROM THE GROUND which may, or may not, be able to cut a piece of rubber out of a tire that has several tons of pressure on it.
As for the cut being dirty, the tire probably made quite a few rotations over dirt after the puncture was made. Since it's part of a dual they took the truck off the site to fix it.
the truck tire hole is a fake. period.
The last pic is from The Creature From The Haunted Sea. Really bad old horror movie.

I love those speed-stacking-cup kids! Imagine practicing a routine like that when they should be sitting in front of a TV playing video games!

Royal Navy survey ship HMS Protector smashed through nearly 300 miles of Antarctic ice to help scientists begin a five-year mission to understand more about global sea-level rises.
The gigantic Thwaites Glacier is melting – accounting for 4% of the annual sea level rise every year. Scientists fear the huge mass of ice could eventually collapse, raising the global sea level 80 centimetres – more than two and a half feet – and so are beginning a five-year programme of field activities on the glacier.
"It was hard work yet extremely rewarding; having the opportunity to play a small part in such a huge project is something that I will certainly look back on with pride later in my life," said leading engineering technician Colin 'Chappers' Chapman, part of the team involved in the unloading.
"The sailors and Royal Marines took a short break from the lifting and shifting to play rugby, a match organised by HMS Protector's physical training instructor, David Clayton-Charlesworth.
"It's been a privilege for HMS Protector to contribute to the International Thwaites Glacier Collaboration and a thrill for the ship's company to see first-hand how this globally significant research is being supported," said HMS Protector's commander, Peter Higgins.
HMS Protector has been away from its home port since September 2015 and will not return home until May next year.
She spends summer in the Southern Hemisphere conducting research on the fringes of the frozen continent and austral winters in milder waters off West and East Africa.


Cowan Lithium Limited's principal exploration focus is a Western Australian project prospective for lithium and located adjacent to lithium operations in production, including Mt Marion and Bald Hill.

Using a mobile phone while driving is dangerous. It is also against the law. However, you can use your mobile phone as a powerful music player with the help of a stereo power amplifier. So here we would like to share a (do it yourself) "Mobile Car Stereo Player" circuit that you can make by yourself if you have enough knowledge about electronics and building circuits.
Most mobile phones have a music player that offers a number of features including preset/manual sound equalisers. They have standard 3.5mm stereo sockets that allow music to be played through standard stereo headphones/sound amplifiers. Nokia 2700 classic is an example.
A car audio amplifier with 3.5mm socket can be designed and simply connected to the mobile phone output via a shielded cable with suitable connectors/jacks (readymade 3.5mm male-to-male connector cable is a good alternative).
IC TDA1554Q contains four 11W identical amplifiers with differential input stages (two inverting and two non-inverting) and can be used for single-ended or bridge applications. The gain of each amplifier is fixed at 20 dB. Here it is configured as two 22W stereo bridge amplifiers.
The amplifier is powered from the 12V car battery through RCA socket J2. Diode D1 protects against wrong-polarity connection. LED1 indicates the power status.
Connect stereo sound signal from the 3.5mm headset socket of the mobile phone to audio input socket J1. When you play the music from your mobile, IC1 amplifies the input. The output of IC1 is fed to speakers LS1 and LS2 fitted at a suitable place in your car. Electrolytic capacitor C5 connected between pin 4 of IC1 and GND improves the supply-voltage ripple rejection. Components R2 and C4 connected at mute/standby pin (pin 14) of IC1 eliminate the switch on/off plop.
The circuit is quite compact. A good-quality heat-sink assembly is crucial for IC1. Fig. 2 shows the stereo socket and stereo jack.
Assemble the circuit on a general-purpose PCB and enclose in a suitable cabinet. Small dimensions of the power amplifier make it suitable for being enclosed in a plastic (ABS) case with vent holes. Signal input socket, speaker output terminals, on/off switch, indicator, fuse holder and power supply socket are best located on the front panel of the enclosure as shown in Fig. 3.

Misbah Ul Haq Mentioned In US TV Series "The Newsroom"


New era for noncompetes: Hey, HR directors. That new noncompete law in Massachusetts takes effect on Oct. 1. So you have one week to get employees signed up under the old, anything-goes regime.
Sure, your contract would be legal, under the letter of the law.
But you might face a minor uprising. Witness what happened when Chinese rail-car manufacturer CRRC tried it. CRRC, which is assembling new Red and Orange Line cars for the T in Springfield, says its noncompete contract, quickly rescinded after workers balked, was circulated because it's still a relatively new company in the US — not because Oct. 1 was around the corner. And here's the hard truth: Judges already can knock down noncompetes if they are deemed unreasonable, and might not look kindly at a rush to beat the law.
In fact, business lawyers are recommending that clients sync up their noncompetes with the new rules as soon as possible, to withstand any possible court challenge.
Noncompetes prevent employees from jumping ship to work for a rival. Supporters say they can curb turnover and protect companies from being raided by competitors; critics say they stifle innovation and entrepreneurship.
The new rules outlaw the agreements entirely for lower-paid hourly employees — such as the camp counselors and sandwich shop workers so often mentioned in testimony at the State House. For the rest of us, noncompete contracts are now limited to a year. The venture capital community wanted to get rid of them entirely: Massachusetts could then better compete with California, where they are essentially outlawed. But the entrenched big-business groups here fought hard to hold onto noncompetes.
The VCs won on one front: Lawmakers included a "garden leave" provision to force companies to pay half of a departed worker's salary while that person remains bound by a noncompete.
The big employer associations worked their way into this provision, too. Thanks to their lobbying, the nearly two-month-old law allows for an alternative: a vague option called "mutually agreed upon consideration." The VCs walked away dissatisfied, fearing their garden-leave rule had been gutted.
This enigmatic four-word phrase has kept lawyers around town busy lately, as they try to divine options for clients that could hold up under a judge's scrutiny. Some say the "mutually agreed upon" alternative should be financially comparable to garden leave; others say a modest signing bonus should suffice. But no one will know for sure if a $25 Legal Sea Foods gift card or a new toaster will cut it, until someone takes the issue to court.
No employer wants to pay a former employee for sitting around the house. That's why some lawyers are telling clients they might be better off jettisoning noncompetes entirely -- and instead rely on non-disclosure and nonsolicitation agreements -- to avoid getting stuck with the bill for garden leave or its equivalent.
If that happens, the venture capitalists may end up winning in the end -- just not the way they had intended.

Q: jquery show timeout countdown output So I have this code to hide certain div's, and I want to add to the html code the seconds that the div is closing in, ex: 5,4,3,2,1, (closed);
Here is the code:

Any sugestions?

A: A solution :
 jQuery(document).ready(function () {
    var cvr = $("#cover");
    var dlg = $("#dialog");
    var t = 5;
    isVisibleCvr = cvr.is(":visible");
    isVisibleDlg = dlg.is(":visible");
    if(isVisibleCvr && isVisibleDlg == true){
        (function countDown(){
            if (t--) {
               $('#t').text(t + ' s');
               setTimeout(countDown, 1000);
            } else {
               $('#t').text('gone!');
               cvr.add(dlg).hide();
            }
        })();
    }
});

I think the code is self explaining. If not, ask for clarification.
Demonstration

A: You can use the setInterval function, use the following script: (demo)

and the following div:

Best cloth FR item in game - if your guild is starting on BWL and you're planning on finishing the instance, this is a good pick.
This is a great robe for a caster in general. Great fire resistance. I want this for my priest not only cause of the good looks on it, but the armor and stats are incredible.
I would only take this robe for fights like Vael in BWL or maybe Ragnaros. I don't know what TBC has in store for us but with the current content, this robe is only good for it's +FR (compared to Flarecore Robe) and its looks.
This robe is the best FR cloak for both MC and BWL, along with some of the other FR items like Onyxia Scale Cloak with +15 FR you are on your way to resist any fire dmg.
The matching shoulders are called elegant mantle, a world-drop green BoE item you can hunt on the AH for small prices.
The matching belt would be gossamer belt or serenity belt, which are achievable through similar means.
Click here for 3D display of this set.
Might I also add that Cloak of the Black Void seems to go well with this, if a bit more darker.
This goes well with the Bonelink Cape. Also, as someone below noted it also goes well with long black capes.


Rehabilitation, Not Capital Punishment Argumentative Persuasive Essays.
What is the true aim of our prison system? Many would argue that it is to punish those who have committed wrongs. Yet this should be a secondary function of these institutions. Their most important function must be to rehabilitate and reintegrate criminals into society so prisons can have a positive effect on inmates.

Q: Express Mongoose automated caching? One weird observation that I got today was like this:
We have a REST API made with NodeJS, express and mongoose.
There is a GET endpoint /api/cars that returns a list of cars from the Car model fairly simply:
app.get('/cars', (req, res, next) => {
    Car.find()
        .exec()
        .then(cars => {
            res.status(200).send(cars);
        }, error => {
            next(error);
        });
});

What was interesting is that accessing the endpoint through the browser a second time returned with a status code 304, which means it did cache it (modifying the list in the database changes the status back to 200). However, I don't quite understand where it happened and who did it.
Interstingly, if I manually cache the list in the Redis database and retrieve it from there, the response is always 200 even though the data did not modify at all. So is it a part of mongoose then?
I mean I appreciate the automatic caching, but I want to know how it happens.
We aren't using a specific caching module for express.

A: 304 means the Resource hasnt been modified

Indicates that the resource has not been modified since the version specified by the request headers If-Modified-Since or If-None-Match. In such case, there is no need to retransmit the resource since the client still has a previously-downloaded copy

(https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Status/304)
Also see RFC7232 https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc7232
This is browser caching, the headers that were sent before weren't modified. When you manually edit the DB they will be edited... Hence you dont get a browser cache copy, but you download a new copy.

Racial Disparities in Prison: Remedies.
The evidence has long been in that the justice system is inherently a tool of racial, class, and gender oppression. I think we all need to form one of these task forces for our states and figure out how to dismantle it...

State Lawmakers, Criminal Justice Experts to Scrutinize Racial Impact of Illinois Drug Laws
Springfield, IL – State legislative and criminal justice leaders gathered in Chicago on Monday to evaluate the impact of Illinois drug laws on minority communities. Members of the Illinois Disproportionate Justice Impact Study Commission will begin work to determine if current state laws and policies contribute to the disproportionate percentages of minorities in jails and prisons.
The Commission, co-chaired by State Senator Mattie Hunter (D- Chicago) and State Representative Art Turner (D-Chicago), is the outcome of Senate Bill 2476, which passed the Illinois Senate and the Illinois House unanimously last year and became Public Act 095-0995.
Commission members, named in the law or appointed by the Senate and House leaders, will examine the causes and consequences of findings such as these:
In Illinois in 2005, whites comprised 66% of the general population, African-Americans 15%. That same year, whites comprised only 28% of the Illinois prison population, and African-Americans 61%.[1]
In 2005, African Americans were 9.1 times more likely to be incarcerated in prison or jail in Illinois than whites, ranking Illinois 14th worst in the nation, and well above the national average of 5.6 times more likely.[2]
From 1990 to 2000, the number of African Americans admitted to prison in Illinois for drug offenses grew six-fold from 1,421 to 9,088. In contrast, the number of whites admitted to prison for drug offenses remained relatively stable.[3]
The proportion of African Americans arrested for drug offenses in Illinois increased steadily from 1983 to 1992, from 46% to 82% of those arrested for such crimes. The proportions of whites arrested decreased steadily during those years, from 41% to 11%.[4]
These significant disparities exist despite the fact that rates of illicit drug use vary relatively little by ethnicity. The just-released 2008 National Survey on Drug Use and Health shows rates of past month illicit drug use among persons 12 or older to be 10.1% among African Americans, 8.2% for whites, and 6.2% for Latinos.
"These incarceration trends are disturbing and we need to remedy them," says Senator Hunter, who co-sponsored the legislation creating the Commission. "When rates of drug use among minorities are relatively similar, but rates of incarceration are wildly disproportionate, we need to understand why that is happening and what we can do about it."
According to a 2008 report by the Center for Health and Justice at TASC, the disparities in incarceration trends relate in part to changes in the drug laws in the late 1980s. Between 1986 and 1991, the number of African Americans incarcerated for drug crimes rose four times as fast as the number of whites.
"No legislature sets out to make a law that disproportionately imprisons a particular racial community, but I believe our laws here in Illinois do just that," says Senator Hunter. "Now we have an opportunity to examine what's happening and right the wrong."
The Commission's work will yield legislative and other policy recommendations designed to address any disproportionate impact found to result from state drug laws and/or their application.
State budget woes have cut funding for alternatives to incarceration, including the statewide TASC (Treatment Alternatives for Safe Communities) program, which places and monitors nonviolent, drug-using offenders in substance abuse treatment as a condition of their probation.
"When the State cuts funding for drug treatment, alternatives to incarceration, and community probation and supervision, the consequences of those cuts are felt by minority communities that are already being affected disproportionately by current drug laws," says Pamela Rodriguez, president of TASC and its Center for Health and Justice, which is assisting the work of the Commission. "We need to be vigilant about not cutting the very programs that divert nonviolent, drug-using offenders out of the justice system and into community-based treatment."
The Commission's work will be informed by advisory groups that examine research, policy, and economic impact. The research advisory group comprises researchers from Loyola University, the University of Illinois at Chicago, Roosevelt University, the Illinois Criminal Justice Information Authority, and the Illinois Department of Corrections, along with staff researchers and legal and policy consultants from the Center for Health and Justice at TASC. The policy and economic impact advisory groups will be composed of a variety of university and community members with interest and expertise in economics and public policy related to criminal justice.

General dentists diagnose and treat a variety of oral health conditions. They perform procedures from X-Rays and exams to gum care, fillings, and cosmetic treatments like veneers as well as manage overall oral healthcare. The general dentist is also responsible for providing preventative education to patients.
Crowns & bridges are fixed prosthetic devices that are cemented onto implants or existing teeth. Our office offers porcelain and ceramic crowns to match the color of your teeth. We also offer fixed bridges, which are cemented to natural teeth or abutments, to close the space between missing teeth.
Dentures and partial dentures are removable replacements for missing teeth. Complete dentures are used when all the teeth are missing while partial dentures are used when some natural teeth remain. We offer natural looking, esthetic dentures.
A night guard is an oral appliance typically worn at night and may be prescribed for grinding and clenching (bruxism) or TMJ (Temporomandibular disorder). We custom make our night guards to ensure proper fit and function. Wearing night guards can lesson the symptoms of TMJ and prevent chipping and cracking of teeth.
Root canal treatment is a procedure that relieves dental pain caused by inflammation or infection in the roots of a tooth. Depending on the severity and complexity of the case, root canal treatment may be performed by a general dentist or an endodontist (specialist).
Fillings restore teeth that have been damaged by dental decay. They also help to prevent further decay by sealing off spaces where bacteria can enter. We offer resin composite (white) fillings to match the color of your teeth and provide a natural appearance.
Dental veneers (porcelain veneers or dental porcelain laminates) are thin, custom-made shells that are bonded to cover a tooth's surface to improve the aesthetics of a smile or protect the tooth's surface from damage. Whether for cosmetic purposes or to restore teeth that are chipped, broken, or worn down, our office has you covered.
Dental hygiene is a significant part of our lives both at home and during regular visits to the dentist. Hygiene includes keeping the mouth, teeth, and gums clean. Poor dental hygiene may result in buildup of dental plaque, tooth decay, and periodontal disease. Our office has several Registered Dental Hygienists that perform a variety of cleanings and treatments for patients in varying types of dental health conditions. Your general dentist will work closely with a hygienist (and dental specialist, if needed) to determine the type of cleaning best-suited to ensure your oral health is well taken care of.
P.S. Don't forget to floss!
X-Rays are an essential part of dental diagnostics and creating a comprehensive treatment plan. Digital X-Rays or radiology produce significantly less radiation than conventional X-Ray systems. We offer the latest dental X-Ray technology using sensors and plates. Our digital X-Rays can be easily viewed and enhanced at the dental chair to ensure excellent quality for a comprehensive diagnosis and treatment plan. We uniquely utilize a central X-Ray system to ensure your visit to our office is as efficient as possible.
Our children's dentistry (pediatric) department accepts new patients ages one (1) and above including: infants, children, teens, and special needs. Our services include cleanings, exams, X-Rays, fluoride treatment, sealants, white fillings, crowns, spacers, and orthodontics. In order to ensure your child's visit is as comfortable and safe as possible, we offer nitrous oxide (laughing gas) treatment and coordinate oral sedation when necessary. We participate with most insurances (click here for more details).
Orthodontics is a specialty of dentistry that deals with the diagnosis, prevention, and correction of teeth positioning and jaw alignment. We offer a variety of treatments (phase one (1) and phase two (2) catering to the needs of both children and adults. Early orthodontic evaluation provides timely detection of problems and a greater opportunity for more effective treatment.
Our treatments include: traditional metal braces, Invisalign, clear aligners and several custom oral appliances such as lingual retainers, bionators, expanders, and splints.
A periodontist is a dentist that specializes in the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of periodontal disease (gum disease). They are experts in the treatment of oral inflammation and perform surgical procedures to restore patients to good health. Patients who present moderate to severe levels of periodontal disease will often be managed by a partnership between the general dentist and the periodontist. The periodontist may often prescribe periodontal maintenance or scalaing and root planing for patients with periodontal disease to restore or maintain optimal oral health.
Dental implants are surgically placed into the jawbone in order to provide a foundation for replacement teeth (crowns). Implants are also an alternative to removable bridges and dentures if a patient has healthy gums and adequate bone structure to support the implant. Implants must be cared for regularly in order to ensure they remain functional in the long-term.
Osseous surgery is a procedure that eliminates gum pockets to create a long-term, healthier oral environment for patients with progressive periodontal disease. Reducing the depths of gum pockets and eliminating bacteria can prevent the need to extract teeth that are in poor health conditions.
Endodontists are dental pulp treatment specialists that focus on procedures that preserve the natural structure of teeth. They diagnose and treat oral pain by performing complex root canal therapy and apicoectomies, which remove the tip of a tooth's root to eliminate infected tissues.
Prosthodontics is an area of dentistry concerned with the design, manufacturing, and fitment of artifical replacements for teeth and other parts of the mouth. We offer several treatments in cosmetics, dental implants, crowns, bridges, dentures (overdentures and implant retained dentures), and temporomandibular disorders (TMJ/TMD).
Oral and maxillofacial surgery is a dental specialty that focuses on a broad range of conditions and diseases requiring surgical treatments of the mouth, face, and jaw.
Third (3rd) molars or wisdom teeth will often require extraction by an oral surgeon if they are impacted, erupted, or need to be removed to create space for an orthodontic treatment (for example, to reduce crowding). We offer treatments with sedation in a dedicated surgery suite and recovery area in order to ensure that your visit is as comfortable as possible.
Loss of adult teeth may occur due to oral disease such as tooth decay and gum disease or because of traumatic injury, poor nutrition, or general health concerns. Oral surgeons will work with a general dentist, medical doctor, and other specialists when it comes to cases that involve tooth loss. This includes planning and performing surgery for dental bridges, partials, dentures, or implants.
The specialty of oral surgery involves the diagnosis and study of pathogens, diseases, and conditions affecting the oral and maxillofacial region. This includes multiple areas of the mouth, face, and jaw. Comprehensive study and diagnosis is necessary in order to develop a unique treatment plan for each patient.
A ridge augmentation is often done following a treatment such as an extraction to help restore the natural contour of the gums and jaw. The necessity for ridge augmentation may vary depending on future procedures (i.e. dental implants) and aesthetics.
Oral surgeons also specialize in the treatment of dentofacial deformities caused by TMJ, trauma to the jaw, malocclusion, clenching, grinding, incorrect jaw position, or birth defects. Orthognathic surgery or jaw surgery can improve chewing, speaking, breathing, and facial symmetry. This type of treatment is a process and may also involve corrective orthodontics.
A snius lift may be performed to add bone to the upper jaw. This is often done when there is additional bone height required in order for an implant to be placed. A computed tomography scan or CT scan is often necessary to accurately measure the height and width of existing bone and to evaluate the health of the sinus.
Several treatments by the oral surgeon will require bone grafting, which helps to create strong, new bone to increase the effectiveness of various future treatments. For example, a bone graft will increase the strength of the jaw bone to allow for a more effective dental implant to be placed.


About The Power of Inner Guidance: Seven Steps to Tune In and Turn On!
SEVEN STEPS TO TUNE IN AND TURN ON!
The Power of Inner Guidance: Seven Steps to Tune In and Turn On! is a book about ethical self-direction. It is for anyone who feels off-course in their lives or who is suffering because, at some level, they feel that they are not being true to themselves. It's a book that helps people to get in touch with and listen to their inner guidance system to lead happier, healthier, and more productive lives.
How does The Power of Inner Guidance: Seven Steps to Tune In and Turn On! differ from other books like it? I applied researched principles of Psychology to the practice of turning inward. Unlike other books in this area, my book does not assume a specific source for the love that guides you and allows you to define this for yourself. In addition, I have very specific tips and questions that you can apply to your self-discovery in order to help determine whether or not your thoughts are healthy to act upon. Finally, I've added specific chapters on wide-spread problems that can be helped by the principles taught in this book.
In my work as a psychologist, I noticed that over and over, the people who were coming to my practice were out of touch with themselves and what they really wanted to do during their lives. Detached from their desires, dreams, and purposes, I visited with people who were stressed, in conflict with themselves and others, and off-track--and they were straying further away from correcting their course!
I noticed that people all around me were also suffering needlessly, simply due to not knowing how to reconnect with themselves and correct themselves. Some suffered from depression, suicidal thoughts, anxiety, panic attacks, dysfunctional relationships, and others from compulsive behaviors, eating disorders, substance abuse, chronic pain, and chronic stress.
I reasoned that if I could help people to stop and turn inward for answers, and learn to decipher and apply the healthiest of these answers, much of this suffering would cease. I noticed that the healthiest inner messages were often based in love toward the self and others, leading me to develop the phrase "the love that guides you."
In addition, I learned that my patients required practical tools for overcoming the insane thoughts that often overpowered their thinking and the creation of new habits. The Power of Inner Guidance: Seven Steps to Tune In and Turn On! offers you the same lessons that I have learned in my own life and that I have been guiding my patients to learn.


Hotovo recently had the fortune to meet with Dr Nasser Siabi OBE of Microlink PC (UK) Ltd and to hear how his passion for assistive technology is enabling diversity and inclusion in the workplace. As World Mental Health Day also highlighted some of the challenges diverse groups face trying to achieve gainful employment. We thought it's worth retweeting this blog from our partners at Atlassian and to remind everyone it's not just about 1 day in the calendar, it's about knowledge sharing and using this knowledge to create social impact that will benefit our children and those around us who are challenged by stereotype.

Writing a New Chapter Together
By Mark Ryan | Apr 15, 2021 Oct 21, 2022
BookNook has a new look and here's why…
It's been a big year at BookNook, as we've grown to serve over 400 partner schools, school districts, and nonprofits across 35 states. Our BookNook logo and brand have been one of the few constants as we've gone from 6 people working out of a converted warehouse space in Oakland to over 50 employees and contractors spread out across the US.
Much as we have loved working under the blue and white banner, we feel it's time for a change. Our new brand identity showcases a new logo, font, and colors. But that's not all. Beyond our logo update, we also took a good look at our mission, messaging, and focus to better reflect the way we help meet the needs of schools and communities.
Here's what's changed:
New Tagline = Grow together We have been troubled by the deficit based mindset being used to talk about the trauma children, families, and educators have experienced during the pandemic. Because of this we chose to update our tagline to reflect a growth mindset and to emphasize the importance of meaningful person-to-person connections. It's true that no app can teach a child alone — it takes a human touch.
New Multi-Color Logo goes beyond just good style. It represents our multiple product offerings, including both our core K-8 ELA instructional program and our new remote tutoring service, which has been growing by leaps and bounds. The rainbow effect showcases that the sky's the limit for BookNook as we prepare to support subjects beyond ELA.
New Mission Statement. We feel that times of great change and growth are also times to reflect on our purpose as a company. To that end, we've updated our mission statement:BookNook is on a mission to ensure equitable access to rigorous and engaging instruction through technology innovation
BookNook's Legacy Logo
Here's what will always remain the same:
Our commitment to serving students
Our belief in collaborative learning
Our dedication to equity
This is a very exciting time of growth for the BookNook team. We are incredibly proud of the work that we do, and are thankful for the employees, the partnerships, and the communities that have accompanied us in our growth.
Here's to the next chapter!

The National Centre for Truth and Reconciliation (NCTR) held its grand opening on the University of Manitoba's Fort Garry campus last week.
The NCTR was envisioned and developed as a permanent home for the materials gathered as part of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission of Canada's (TRC) mandate to chronicle the stories of residential school survivors. Now that the NCTR is open, its contents – thousands of statements, documents, and physical artifacts chronicling the history of Canada's residential schools and the experiences of its survivors – will be available to the public.
The University of Manitoba was selected by the TRC to house the centre and signed an agreement on June 21, 2013, which was National Aboriginal Day.
The grand opening included a number of events over two days.
The launch began Tuesday with the lighting of a sacred fire, followed by opening remarks. It featured numerous speakers and dignitaries including chair of the TRC, Hon. Justice Murray Sinclair, TRC commissioner Marie Wilson, former Assembly of First Nations national chief Phil Fontaine, University of Manitoba president David Barnard, Winnipeg author, journalist and First Nations advocate Wab Kinew, and Derek Nepinak, Grand Chief of the Assembly of Manitoba Chiefs.
On Wednesday, the NCTR Archive was officially launched, giving the public access to thousands of documents online. Roughly 2,000 students and teachers from across the province participated in a variety of workshops at the Convention Centre that same day.
NCTR director Ry Moran spoke to the Manitoban about the historic opening of the centre.
"The opening marks yet another step in a very long series of steps that we've been taking as a country to try to come to terms with this history," said Moran. "The opening of the centre marks the establishment of the first permanent body that will be continuing work on this legacy of residential schools. All of the other processes […] were time-limited and of short duration. And now this process is going to be around forever, and it is meant to be a permanent and lasting repository for all this information. That means we will never be able to forget what it went through and what it did."
"The opening of the centre also marks the first time that the Canadian public has access to as much information on the residential school history as it does, which is incredibly exciting."
The centre has reading rooms and quiet spaces, which Moran said people can use to study or work. He encouraged students, faculty, and the broader community – specifically survivors and their families – to come visit the centre.
"This is a new public institution that has been created in the launch of this centre," said Moran. "And that means that we're here to serve the public. I mean, it's our job to make this collection as accessible as possible, to get it into the hands of Canadians."
"I encourage every single person out there to look at that information, learn from it, listen to the survivors. Those survivors that got up in front of rooms of people and poured their soul out were doing that for the benefit of all of us. They were putting themselves on the line so that we could listen to them and so that we could hear them, and so that we could better understand what they went through, and that is so fundamentally important. And we need to listen to their stories – we need to hear those stories in order to understand who we are as a country and who we have been as people in this country."

Spartans headed to New York City, will face Wake Forest in Pinstripe Bowl
Joe Dandron, Football reporter
Announced early on Sunday afternoon, shortly after the College Football Playoff rankings were released, it was also announced that Michigan State (6-6, 4-5 Big Ten) will be heading to New York City to compete in the New Era Pinstripe Bowl against Wake Forest (8-4, 4-4 ACC).
MSU will play Wake Forest on Dec. 27, with kickoff set for 3:20 p.m. on ESPN.
The announcement was first reported by Stadium's Brett McMurphy via Twitter and was later confirmed in a tweet from the Pinstripe Bowl's account.
Wake Forest-Michigan State will play in Pinstripe Bowl, sources told @Stadium
— Brett McMurphy (@Brett_McMurphy) December 8, 2019
MSU closed out the year needing a win against Maryland to clinch a berth in the postseason.
With their 19-16 nail-biter of a win over Maryland, the Spartans are able to go bowling and for much of the time after the regular season ended – most projections pointed to MSU playing in New York City. Where they have a large pool of alumni.
MSU experienced a 5-game losing streak before defeating Rutgers on the road and Maryland at home to close out the season and clinch a postseason berth.
"We're excited about representing the Big Ten in the Pinstripe Bowl against a high quality ACC opponent in Wake Forest," said MSU head coach Mark Dantonio in a press release. "Playing in New York for a bowl game will be a new experience for our program, and it should be a really fun atmosphere to be right in the city during the holiday season. We'll also have the chance to play in a unique venue in Yankee Stadium. Every bowl trip we've had has been a tremendous experience for our players, and I've heard only great things about how the Yankees organization runs this entire event."
Spartan fans were hopeful of the Quick Lane Bowl at Ford Field in Detroit, but because two Big Ten teams are in non-playoff New Year's Six bowl games, the Big Ten was unable to send a delegate to Detroit.
