Lightning Strike Data
Pilots and air traffic controllers should have access to more up-to-date information on lightning strikes, the U.S. National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) says in a safety recommendation that calls on the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) to study the technical feasibility of accomplishing that goal.
The NTSB cited several recent accidents and incidents, noting that "total lightning" detection networks — those that detect both cloud-to-cloud lightning and cloud-to-ground lightning — can help predict areas where lightning may exist along planned flight paths.
"Because lightning detection networks operate independently of weather radar systems, their coverage areas complement each other and lightning information may indicate the presence of thunderstorms outside the range of ground-based weather radar systems," the NTSB said. "Therefore, lightning information may be critical for thunderstorm identification in regions of the National Airspace System where weather radar data are unavailable."
In its safety recommendation letter to the FAA, the NTSB cited several lightning-related events, including an American Eagle Embraer ERJ-145LR's encounter with severe turbulence on June 28, 2010, while at 38,000 ft over Pioneer, Louisiana, U.S. A flight attendant and one of the 42 passengers were seriously injured, and three other passengers received minor injuries.
The NTSB investigation revealed that air traffic controllers had not told the pilots that they were about to fly into an area of heavy precipitation, which appeared on the airplane's weather radar display about 20 seconds before the encounter. The controllers said that their weather display showed no precipitation.
Data from a total lightning detection network, however, showed "substantial lightning activity" at the accident site; the lightning was "a strong indication of the presence of a thunderstorm immediately in front of the airplane," the NTSB said.
The captain said that, if he had known about the thunderstorm, he would have asked controllers for a course change.
The NTSB recommended that the FAA "study the technical feasibility of presenting, through the use of the weather and radar processor system or other means, real-time total lightning data on controller displays."
Another recommendation called for incorporating "real-time total lightning data into the products supplied to pilots through the flight information services–broadcast data link."
TSB Complains of Safety Delays
Significant delays in action on aviation safety recommendations are hindering the strengthening of safety in Canada, the Transportation Safety Board of Canada (TSB) says.
The TSB, in its annual assessment of responses to its safety recommendations, said that only one recommendation dealing with aviation safety received a "fully satisfactory" response.
In the cases of 32 other active recommendations, there is "significant room for improvement," the TSB said.
The TSB noted, however, that "since 2000, the board has made five recommendations aimed at enhancing crew resource management, which have just recently received TC's [Transport Canada's] priority status."
In addition, the TSB said it was pleased by a TC project to take quick action on four recommendations made in 2011.
"Every year, we take stock of whether improvements have been made and what still needs to be done to address important safety issues," said TSB head Wendy Tadros. "This year, there is some progress, and that is encouraging, but in many areas, we still see safety risks, risks that will persist until concrete action is taken."
Dennis Fitch
Dennis E. Fitch, who, as an off-duty United Airlines captain, helped land a crippled McDonnell Douglas DC-10 in Sioux City, Iowa, U.S., after a catastrophic engine failure and loss of hydraulic flight control systems, died May 6. He was 69.
A DC-10 instructor pilot, he was aboard the airplane as a passenger on the July 19, 1989, flight. He operated the throttles of the nearly uncontrollable DC-10 throughout much of the makeshift approach.
The crash landing killed 111 of the 296 people aboard, and 47 people were seriously injured. Afterward, many in the industry said the fact that anyone survived was a tribute to the crew's extraordinary airmanship.
Fatigue Warnings
The U.K. Parliament's Transport Committee is criticizing flight time regulations proposed by the European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) as a "lowest-common-denominator approach to safety" that does not measure up to existing U.K. requirements.
The EASA proposal must be improved, "or safety could be at risk," the committee said in documents issued in late May.
The EASA proposal, introduced in December 2010 and revised earlier this year, was intended to introduce new flight and duty time limits and to harmonize those limits throughout the European Union. Current limits in the U.K. are generally more stringent than those being considered by EASA, the Transport Committee said.
"MPs [members of Parliament] accept that common European flight time limitations could improve aviation safety for U.K. passengers travelling on non-U.K. airlines," the committee added. "However, for these benefits to be realized, the European standards must be uniformly high."
Committee Chairwoman Louise Ellman said members of Parliament were especially concerned about several items, including the proposed 11-hour maximum nighttime duty period, which "flies in the face of scientific evidence" and should be reduced to no more than 10 hours.
In addition, under some circumstances, the proposed rules would allow pilots to work very long duty periods and, for example, would not preclude a pilot from landing an airplane after being awake for as long as 22 hours, Ellman said.
"The Civil Aviation Authority must do more to monitor pilots so that long duty periods are the exception, not the rule," she added. "And we are also concerned about a culture of underreporting of pilot fatigue."
Ellman said the EASA proposals should be revised before the British government commits itself to their adoption.
Proposed Penalties
The U.S. Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has proposed $445,125 in civil penalties against Horizon Air for its alleged operation of a Bombardier Dash 8-400 on 45 flights while it was not in compliance with an airworthiness directive requiring inspections of engine nacelle fittings.
The flights occurred in March 2011.
The FAA also proposed $395,850 in civil penalties against US Airways for allegations that it violated hazardous materials regulations in 2010 by accepting an undeclared shipment of 10 disposable cigarette lighters filled with flammable gas and an improperly packaged shipment of alkali-filled wet cell batteries.
The agency proposed a $210,000 civil penalty against Alaska Airlines for an alleged failure to comply with deactivation procedures during maintenance on 10 dates in 2010 and 2011.
Each airline was given 30 days to respond to the allegations.
STC Compatibility
Citing the fatal crashes of two small twin-engine airplanes, the U.S. National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) is calling for the development of guidelines to ensure that every time an aircraft is equipped with a supplemental type certificate (STC) modification, it is compatible with others that may have been installed before it.
"The installation of multiple STCs is becoming more prevalent in general aviation aircraft," the NTSB said. "There are likely many aircraft that are flying with multiple STCs for which the interrelationship may not have been properly evaluated by the installer."
The agency's safety recommendation letter noted two fatal accidents in 2010 — involving a Cessna T337G Skymaster and a Beech 58 Baron — that killed a total of seven people. In each case, the NTSB cited multiple STCs and a "lack of guidance by the [U.S.] Federal Aviation Administration for multiple STC interaction evaluation."
Representatives of the European aviation industry attended a Eurocontrol crisis management workshop aimed at enhancing the industry's response to situations such as ash-spewing volcanic eruptions, nuclear emergencies and the uncontrolled re-entry into earth's atmosphere of space satellites.
Representatives of more than 30 nations and expert organizations attended the May session in Brussels, Belgium.
"Delegates discussed lessons learned from the ash crises in 2010–2011 and how these could be applied to other events with a network-wide impact," Eurocontrol said. "They talked about the responsibilities of various actors involved, in particular that of the [air traffic control] network manager and [European Aviation Crisis Coordination Cell, which supports the network manager], which they agreed is a strategic and political layer to help in coordinating a response to a major crisis."
Fatigue Proposal in Australia
The Australian Civil Aviation Safety Authority (CASA) has proposed new rules to manage pilot fatigue.
CASA's graduated approach would allow operators engaged in aerial work to choose basic flight and duty time limitations of no more than seven hours of flight time and eight hours of duty time a day, while those engaged in more complex operations could operate under more detailed rules that consider time zone changes, split duty periods, augmented crew and overnight operations.
"These operators would have the flexibility needed for the demands of daily operations, such as passenger transport, while safely managing fatigue," CASA said.
The largest airlines would be required to adopt a fatigue risk management system, which uses scientific principles to identify fatigue hazards and provides for continuous monitoring.
"Under the proposed new rules, the shared responsibilities of both air operators and flight crew in the management of fatigue risk are clearly defined," CASA said. "Flight crew would be required to use off-duty periods to obtain enough sleep, to use in-flight rest appropriately and to disclose anything that may prevent them from meeting applicable fatigue risk management policies and limitations. Operators would be required to provide flight crewmembers with sufficient time away from work to enable restorative rest and sleep."
CASA is accepting comments on the proposals through June 12.
Cooperation on the Ground
The International Air Transport Association (IATA) has endorsed the creation of a ground handling council to encourage cooperation in a variety of areas in ground operations, including safety initiatives.
The council will consist of 20 representatives of airlines and ground services providers and will report to the IATA Operations Committee.
Related initiatives will involve the linking of several key data sources "to facilitate data-driven decisions to improve safety performance and reduce ground damage," IATA said.
In addition, IATA said it will promote "greater regulatory acceptance and utilization" of the IATA Safety Audit for Ground Operations and the IATA Ground Operations Manual.
"Through renewed commitment to working together, taking a risk-based and data-driven approach, aviation stakeholders and regulators can improve safety and reduce the cost of ground damage, which is estimated in the billions of dollars annually," said Guenther Matschnigg, IATA senior vice president for safety, operations and infrastructure.
The U.S. Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) says it plans to reexamine its recently announced rule on pilot fatigue, especially the exclusion of cargo pilots from flight and duty time limits and rest requirements. … The U.K. Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) has delayed until September the introduction of new European Aviation Safety Agency pilot licenses for U.K. pilots. The delay from the planned July date was a result of "the complexity of the transition to the new license format," the CAA said. … The U.S. Federal Aviation Administration has directed its investigators and lawyers to "pursue the stiffest possible sanctions" against people who intentionally point laser devices at aircraft. Some 3,592 laser strikes were recorded in 2011, up from 2,836 in 2010.

You see us on TV, hear us on the radio, you see billboards and many other ads for personal injury attorneys. To most people, these ads don't mean much. For some people, they get irritated and accuse us of being "ambulance chasers" and "money hungry." However, for the victims of personal injuries, car accidents and even death, we make an enormous difference in their lives.
Nobody wants to ever get injured.
Nobody wants to ever get injured. Nobody. However, as life goes, sometimes accidents happen and those accidents can result in life changing injuries. A broken bone, loss of limbs, severe burns, so many possible injuries, and even death. After more than 23 years practicing personal injury law in Texas and throughout the United States, I can personally tell you, that not a single one of our injured clients has ever been able to be the 100% the same after their injuries. Regardless of what kind of injury and how much money we have been able to recover for them, the nightmare of being injured because of someone else's negligence continues to haunt them.
Getting the compensation you deserve because of your injuries in an accident is not a simple process. There are countless factors that go into the consideration to claim and recover a fair compensation agreement. Insurance companies count on uninformed injured victims to settle quickly and go away. Insurance companies handle thousands of claims a day and know exactly how to get the result they want. As a result, most injured victims settle for way less than they deserve because they don't know what they don't know. Injured victims don't know their rights, the limits and what they are entitled to.
That is why injured victims need an experienced personal injury attorney to represent them in their claim against the insurance company. We will investigate, provide for proper medical care, and represent you at no out of pocket expense to you. Even if we have to go to trial to get you the compensation you deserve for your injuries, you don't have put a single dime out of pocket. And if we don't win, you don't owe us a dime.


Flood Falls in Hope, BC, is a less known sister waterfalls to Bridal Falls in Chilliwack. Both waterfalls are pretty close to each other (less than 10min apart). The hiking trails to both falls are equally short, ideal for young and old. Therefore, there is no reason you can't visit both on the same day.
One thing that sets Flood Falls apart is that you can stand right at the base of the waterfalls!!! Not many people visit this waterfall, so it is less crowded than the nearby Bridal Falls. Take you time, enjoy your hike, and dance below the waterfalls if you like!! Check the map below for the exact location of trail head to Flood Falls.
August 4, 2011: Hiking trail goes directly to the base of Flood Falls.
How to Get to Flood Falls?
The hiking trail head (parking lot) to Flood Falls is indicated by Green Arrow on the following map (click EXTERNAL LINK below to view map). It is just next to Trans-Canada Highway 1 at Exit 165. If you miss the exit and end up in municipality Hope, then just visit the Tourist Information Centre in Hope and they will direct you an easy route from Hope to Flood Falls. Cheers!

Sanwo-Olu Committed To Improving Healthcare Delivery – Deputy Governor Hamzat Reveals
Ahead of the plans to utilize Information and Communication Technologies in providing qualitative healthcare for Lagosians, Lagos State Governor, Mr Babajide Olusola Sanwo-Olu has declared the intention of his administration to continue to review strategies, and policies geared towards delivering his electoral promises based on the T.H.EM.E.S agenda.
The Governor stated this today while speaking at the opening ceremony of a three-day Technical Conference on eHealth with the theme "Lagos State Smart Health Information Platform (SHIP)" held at Victoria Island.
Sanwo-Olu, who was represented by the Deputy Governor, Dr Kadri Obafemi Hamzat noted that the conference was geared towards developing a sustainable Smart Health Information Platform by connecting and strengthening linkages between primary, secondary and tertiary facilities so as to deliver "better, faster and smarter healthcare."
He stated that in line with the T.H.EM.E.S agenda, the conference underscores the importance of the health sector and its critical role in securing the economic and general well-being of residents.
Speaking further, the Governor remarked that though current technological development is essentially limited to developed countries, e-health is a global issue adding that he is elated at the prospect of the conference providing workable strategies and solutions to identified challenges to the establishment of a smart health information platform for the state health sector.
According to the Governor, "To my mind, establishing a Health Information Platform will impact positively on various aspects our state's health system such as Human Resources Health, Healthcare Financing through our Universal Coverage Initiative; Lagos State Health Scheme, Biosecurity and Biosafety provide employment creation opportunities while opening doors to international collaborations and partnerships towards improving the state of our health service delivery."
He stated that the development of 3,000km fibre optic network will enable public institutions (schools, hospitals, offices etc..) have direct linkages to the internet as part of strategies to make Lagos a Smart City.
While describing Data as the new currency, and key in planning, the governor called on all residents of the Lagos State to register with the State Residents Registration Agency (LASRRA) in order to assist the state government to have data which will assist the government in the provision of its numerous people-Oriented programmes.
He disclosed that there is an ongoing discussion with NIMC to utilize the infrastructure of the Lagos State Residents Registration Agency for data capture by residents of Lagos State.
Presenting the rationale for the project, the State Commissioner for Health, Prof. Akin Abayomi disclosed that the Smart Health Information Platform (SHIP) is an outcome of the Art of Technology launched by the state government last December and is designed to leverage on technology to improve the health sector and ensure that a large number of citizens have access to qualitative healthcare.
Speaking further, he said, the strategy would amongst others things, reduce wastage of scarce resources, prepare to enter the digital age of precision medicine; drive the bio-economy to accelerate human resource development and create global virtual health hub.
In his keynote address, Andrew S. Nevin of PWC urged the state government to become a global leader by measuring not its GDP as the yardstick for growth but rather the sustainable Development Goal levels.
He said the prosperity of Lagos as shown by the GDP has not translated into wellbeing given the low level of life expectancy of 54.6years for Lagosians.

Q: Is "All My Files" slow because of my git and svn repos? All My Files is often painfully slow, long beach ball spins when I open a new finder window.
The thing is I actually like it...  and I'm wondering if perhaps it's because of all my GIT and SVN repos (many of which have 100's of thousands of small files.  Last time I full TM backup I had roughly 2 million files.
FYI, this is on a 2011 MBP with a 512GB SSD (Crucial m4) running 10.8.1.  Everything else is is super fast, it's just "All My Files" that is painfully slow...
Side note: wondeirng if Spotlight is trying to index all those git/svn files as well...  is there a way to tell spotlight to ignore folders by name? (ie. ignore .git everywhere...  kind of assuming it already does, just not sure)

A: It would seem that have too many files in Spotlight does indeed slow down "All My Files" in finder.
It doesn't really matter that the files are in code repos, although repos do tend to have lots of files.
Upon removing my ~/Sites folder from spotlight which contains only 15GB of data, but more than half of the 500,000 files Spotlight was indexing "All my Files" came up nearly instantly again.


Updated as often as I can, see whats new at the site.
While you're there, check out their new Photo album. They have some good pictures!

Your safety while attending the Water Survival School can be broken down into two areas: Training Safety and Local Area Safety.
a. Safety During Training - The school has an excellent safety record. Our primary concern is for you to pay strict attention to all precautions given by school personnel. Non or weak swimmers receive special attention and very few have encountered any problems completing training.
b. Local Area Safety - Considering the extended length of the student training day, it would be wise to remain near the immediate vicinity of the base. When driving off-base, wear seat belts and drive defensively.
NASP does not have any off-limit establishments for the local area. Please use your good judgment and common sense when selecting off-base recreational or dining facilities.
NASP's Commissary and Main NEX are located at Corry Station. There is a commercial bus route 14 that services that area. Bus fare is 75 cents.
NOTE: The USAF Water Survival School does not endorse any commercial transportation agencies, but would like to provide the information to you.
This training schedule is an aid for planning and coordinating with appropriate agencies and personnel. It is intended to outline instructional activities and to plan operational training support. Variations to this schedule will be made based on class size, training requirements, weather conditions, and local flying schedule and airspace restrictions.
NOTE: These times are approximate and may be changed due to weather conditions, class size, airspace restrictions, and any conflict with Navy flying schedule. Deviations to the training schedule are coordinated by Tuesday of each week. The launch controller notifies 17 TRS/DOTS of any deviations. DOTS changes any departure times of outbound students, if needed. Every effort is made to have students depart on Friday.

Thunderclap: BEST NEW MUSIC
Mitski – Your Best American Girl (video)
Arnaud Marty 13 April 2016
Mitski finally released a video for "Your Best American Girl", the massive lead single of "Puberty 2", her upcoming album due to be released via Dead Oceans on June 17. It was directed by the famous filmmaker Zia Anger, who already worked with alternative artists such as Angel Olsen, Julianna Barwick, and Jenny Hval. The video relates a love triangle which unfortunately turns not to be in favour of the artist.
In the video, the character played by the singer is a model wearing a sexy pink suit and who looks perfect thanks to her make-up and hairdresser assistants. She tries to seduce a very cute guy but, despite her attractivity, he prefers to flirt and kiss with another girl who, by the way, looks like a slutty version of Lana Del Rey. Thus, Mitski is suffering while watching the scene and sitting on the sidelines.
The artist spoke about the track during an interview with NPR. She said:
I don't think I have the kind of creativity to write fiction. [This is] the first album where I kind of stretched outside of my own experience and used more metaphors. I don't know if I would go as far as to say I tell other people's stories. They're still my stories, but I just use characters or use metaphors to describe better what I'm feeling at the moment. But this song is quite autobiographical because I didn't grow up in the U.S. I am half Japanese, and it came from wanting to just fit into this very American person's life and simply not being able to. Just fundamentally being from a different place and feeling like I would just get in the way of their progression if their life, because I could just never get to wherever they're naturally going.
Anyway, don't give this man too much attention. With your talent to communicate strong emotions, you deserve so much better!

Most adults in the U.S. fail to meet national physical activity (PA) and dietary recommendations, and Latinos are less likely to meet these recommendations than non-Latino Whites. Physical inactivity, a poor diet, and obesity are major risk factors for cardiovascular disease, certain cancers, diabetes, and stroke and are important contributors to preventable morbidity and mortality in the U.S. Social environments are widely recognized to have an important impact on these behaviors, yet most behavior change programs give limited attention to the social contexts in which behaviors occur. The goal of the proposed research is to evaluate the efficacy of a 6-month, community-based family dyad intervention in promoting engagement in and maintenance of PA and healthy eating among Latino adults residing in three predominantly Latino communities in Houston, TX. Dyads will be randomly assigned to a community health worker (CHW)-led intervention, ?Tu Salud, Si Cuenta! ? Familiar? (TSSC-Family) or to a contact control condition focused on healthy homes. TSSC-Family will consist of six home visits delivered to dyad members over a six-month period to build behavioral skills and social support for sustained healthy behavior change among Latino family dyads. The healthy homes contact control will also consist of six monthly visits delivered to dyad members by a CHW. Study participants will include 552 Latino adults not currently meeting PA or nutrition recommendations recruited and enrolled as family member dyads (n=276 dyads). This approach expands on an empirically- based motivational behavior change intervention developed by a member of the investigative team in collaboration with community partners that has shown preliminary evidence of effectiveness for positive PA and dietary behavior change in Latino individuals. Participants will be assessed at baseline, 6 months, and 12 months after baseline to evaluate both intermediate and long-term effects. Primary outcomes include minutes per week of moderate and vigorous PA, and servings of fruits and vegetables, sugar-sweetened beverages, and whole grains. Weight loss is a secondary outcome. Self-efficacy, stage of change, social support, and social control will also be examined as potential mediators of changes in PA and nutrition. The proposed research is innovative in its use of a novel intervention that emphasizes dyadic social processes in addition to standard behavior change strategies. The intervention explicitly targets family-based social networks to foster social environments supportive of healthy behavior change using CHWs to facilitate home-based outreach and communication to this understudied population. This research is expected to yield critical insight regarding effective approaches for increasing PA and healthy eating among Latinos, the largest and among the fastest growing minority groups in the U.S.
Public Health Relevance
The proposed research seeks to address Latino health disparities in chronic disease risk by evaluating a novel intervention focused on motivation, behavior skills, and family social contexts to increase physical activity and healthy eating in Latino adults. The community-engaged research approach and the use of community health workers to deliver the intervention builds community capacity and enhances the potential to effectively address health disparities. Results will yield critical information regarding effective community-based intervention approaches and facilitate understanding of how this type of intervention can work in real-world settings.

Rotisserie Chicken Arroz Caldo Recipe is my other version of arroz caldo in which I use pre-cooked chicken, instead of the usual raw chopped chicken.
This recipe calls for rotisserie chicken or lechon manok. You can use left overs of freshly cooked chicken for this recipe. Using cooked chicken will save you time and it will also infuse flavor to your arroz caldo dish.
I discovered that using lechon manok will give your arroz caldo a smoky flavor, which compliments well with the other ingredients. Rotisserie chicken, on the other hand, provides a yummy roast chicken flavor that blends well with the ginger.
I am using Jasmine rice for this recipe. You can use other rice varieties , but I do not recommend the use of glutinous rice (malagkit), as it will have a different texture. If you insist in using glutinous rice, make sure to add more water to balance the consistency. You will enjoy this dish with some chopped scallions, toasted garlic, and a slice of lemon or calamansi.
Try this Rotisserie Chicken Arroz Caldo Recipe. Let me know what you think.
Saute the onion until the texture becomes soft.
Add the ginger and garlic powder. Shake-in some ground black pepper. Continue cooking for 1 minute.
Put-in the chicken and rice. Stir fry for 2 minutes.
Pour-in chicken broth and water. Let boil.
Adjust the heat between low and medium. Stir. Cover while stirring every 5 minutes. Continue to cook for the next 35 to 44 minutes. Add more water if needed.
Add-in a pinch of saffron or safflower (kasubha). Shake-in some salt and pepper to taste. You can also use fish sauce as a replacement for salt. stir.
Transfer to a bowl. Top with a slice of lemon and some chopped scallions.
Hi!! I love to cook and I want to learn more recipe that you have.
Can I just omit saffron? Thanks po!

The House With a Clock in its Walls Review
shonaharding November 7, 2018 Leave a Comment
Who remembers The Haunted Mansion? That movie was utterly phenomenal, this movie reminded me of that, it was just very, very boring.
The House with a Clock in its Walls follows a young lad called Lewis who's parents have recently died in a car accident. He goes to live with his Uncle Jonathan who turns out to be a warlock (a male witch). Interested Lewis wants to learn the powers and Jonathan is happy to, to an extent. The warlock that lived in the house before Jonathan was nasty and dabbled in blood magic so Jonathan doesn't want Lewis to get carried away. But of course he does.
Lewis resurrects the evil warlock Isaac and now it's a race against time to stop the world ending. Oh and there's a house with a clock in its walls, and I feel like if Lewis hadn't resurrected Isaac that whole storyline would've been mute, and, I don't know, just felt like there was a lot of variants.
My issue with this movie, and I know I'm the wrong age bracket, but, a lot of the jokes felt forced and the storyline wasn't all that interesting and honestly dragged. They really tried to develop Lewis' character but without a heartbreaking or warming moment in the end it was for nothing.
There were red herrings I felt in this movie where actors were cast who looked very similar and were often shown or spoken about which made me think there was something there which wasn't. And the actors we actually got to watch and follow within the movie weren't that great. Even Jack Black's performance seemed forced at times.
The issue is Jack Black is a fantastic comedian and so with the right directors behind him he can really shine. Sadly with this movie the writing was very cliche and forced and this definitely showed in his performance.
The twist did take me by surprise and I definitely didn't expect it but after that sudden shock moment the rest was meh. The ending was underwhelming and it honestly felt like there wasn't much of a plot. Everything hung on coincidences that if they didn't happen would've broke down the whole story.
I'm glad I saw this movie because, from the trailer at least, it looked fun but sadly I was very disappointed. And I don't think it's down to my age either. Comparing again to The Haunted Mansion, that movie is still one you can really enjoy at any age and remember the best moments. The only thing I remember from this movie was they called Lewis 'bug boy' and his kind of friend looked a bit like a young Corey Feldman. Not something you really want to take away from a blockbuster film.

Markers of systemic bacterial exposure in periodontal disease and cardiovascular disease risk: A systematic review and meta-analysis
Indra Z. Mustapha, Sarah Debrey, Michael Oladubu, Richard Ugarte
Background: Recent meta-analyses reported a weak association between periodontal disease (PD) on clinical examination and cardiovascular disease (CVD). Systemic bacterial exposure from periodontitis, which correlates poorly with the clinical examination, has been proposed as the more biologically pertinent risk factor. The purpose of this study was to review and analyze the association between PD with elevated systemic bacterial exposure and CVD. Methods: We searched in the PubMed, Cochrane Controlled Trials Register, EMBASE, and SCOPUS databases for all literature examining PD and CVD. From 10 selected publications, we extracted 12 cohort (N = 5) and cross-sectional (N = 7) studies and included 11 of these in a meta-analysis. With stratified analyses, this resulted in 14 analyses of coronary heart disease (CHD; N = 7), stroke (N = 4), and carotid intima-medial thickening (CIMT; N = 3) as a measure of early atherosclerosis. Systemic bacterial exposure was measured by periodontal bacterial burden (N = 1), periodontitis-specific serology (N = 12), or C-reactive protein (N = 1). Results: Periodontal disease with elevated markers of systemic bacterial exposure was associated strongly with CHD compared to subjects without PD, with a summary odds ratio of 1.75 (95% confidence interval (CI): 1.32 to 2.34; P < 0.001). This group was not associated with CVD events or with stroke but was associated with a significant increase in mean CIMT (0.03 mm; 95% CI: 0.02 to 0.04). Conclusion: Periodontal disease with elevated bacterial exposure is associated with CHD events and early atherogenesis (CIMT), suggesting that the level of systemic bacterial exposure from periodontitis is the biologically pertinent exposure with regard to atherosclerotic risk.

N2 - Background: Recent meta-analyses reported a weak association between periodontal disease (PD) on clinical examination and cardiovascular disease (CVD). Systemic bacterial exposure from periodontitis, which correlates poorly with the clinical examination, has been proposed as the more biologically pertinent risk factor. The purpose of this study was to review and analyze the association between PD with elevated systemic bacterial exposure and CVD. Methods: We searched in the PubMed, Cochrane Controlled Trials Register, EMBASE, and SCOPUS databases for all literature examining PD and CVD. From 10 selected publications, we extracted 12 cohort (N = 5) and cross-sectional (N = 7) studies and included 11 of these in a meta-analysis. With stratified analyses, this resulted in 14 analyses of coronary heart disease (CHD; N = 7), stroke (N = 4), and carotid intima-medial thickening (CIMT; N = 3) as a measure of early atherosclerosis. Systemic bacterial exposure was measured by periodontal bacterial burden (N = 1), periodontitis-specific serology (N = 12), or C-reactive protein (N = 1). Results: Periodontal disease with elevated markers of systemic bacterial exposure was associated strongly with CHD compared to subjects without PD, with a summary odds ratio of 1.75 (95% confidence interval (CI): 1.32 to 2.34; P < 0.001).

…let your feelings show
Posted by Stephanie on July 17, 2019 July 16, 2019
Yesterday, the 2019 Emmy nominees were announced, and needless to say, there were a lot of feels happening. People love their TV shows and have strong opinions about what should and should not have been nominated.
And I don't blame them. When you find a story that you connect with it sticks with you. It can be upsetting when it doesn't get the award love you know it deserves…
But the fact is, there is a lot of TV happening (which is why the whole concept of awarding the best TV shows of the year is a fools errand, but I digress) and honoring and awarding it all is an impossible task.
Sometimes words, just aren't enough. Luckily, today, as the world comes to terms with the 2019 Emmy nominees (give us the strength) it also happens to be celebrating World Emoji Day.
These tiny little pictograms are always there for us when words fail (sometimes causing even more confusion, 😕 but that's not their fault 😳), so what better way to work through a (small) collection of great calls and one under-nominated masterpiece. Brace yourselves for the Em(my)oji Nominee recap you never know you needed.
😂+😭+⛪+(🇬🇳+🐷)+🐹
For those unfamiliar, that's the flag of Guinea and that's a hamster, not a mouse. Together these pretty much sum up the second season of "Fleabag" (now on Amazon Prime), which is just one of two shows created by Phoebe Waller-Bridge that were heavily nominated. Technically this show is a comedy, but like most comedies this season, it's probably going to make you cry too. Some of it will be from laughter, some from happiness, some from frustration, and some good old fashioned sad tears. Yes, you'll get all that (and a guinea pig) from a six-episode (20-ish minutes each) season.
🇫🇷+🇬🇧+🇳🇱+🇮🇹+🕵🏻♀+👩+ 🔪+🔫
Back with another Phoebe Waller-Bridge masterpiece (but this time the flags are just flags), this time in the drama category. Congrats to "Killing Eve," but mostly Jodie Comer, who was snubbed during the first season, a horrible oversight given that this show works because of the balance of Villanelle (Comer) and Eve (Sandra Oh). Don't worry, the academy made up for it by giving Jodie her nomination and the show a grand total of 11 nods.
😈+😇+🐶
It's not that I expected "Good Omens" to do well during the awards seasons, it's just that when the nominees were announced and this incredible adaptation of a very strange book only had three nominations (all very much deserved), I was surprised. I'm not angry, just disappointed. But as I said before (and I really mean this) there's just too much good television to award it all. It's simply not possible. So, fans of these less-Emmy-loved shows, don't despair, enjoy them. That's what they were made for, not for the awards, for you to enjoy.

The procedures that follow discuss the nature of anaphylaxis, and provide guidelines and expectations regarding managing anaphylaxis, including reducing the risk of anaphylactic attacks, epinephrine (EpiPen) use, emergency plans and related roles and responsibilities. It is important to note that Brick Works Academy cannot guarantee an environment free of allergens.
2.1 There is a need to ensure the safety of students who suffer from extreme allergies (anaphylaxis) and empower camp administrators to respond to their needs consistently but at the same time recognize individual differences from case to case. The following policy is in compliance with the Statutes of Ontario 2005, Chapter 7 (Sabrina's Law).
2.2 Anaphylaxis is a severe allergic reaction that can lead to rapid death if untreated. Anaphylactic reactions occur when the body's sensitized immune system overreacts in response to the presence of a particular allergen. Anaphylaxis affects multiple body systems including skin, upper and lower respiratory, gastro-intestinal and cardiovascular. Helping their children strike a balance between a necessary fear of exposure and an unhealthy fear of their expanding world is a difficult balancing act for parents – and one that requires the cooperation of all who are part of the child's life, including the camp. Despite the best efforts of parents and camps, anaphylactic children live with a level of stress that most children do not experience. It's a matter of life and death. A conservative estimate is that 40,000 Ontario students suffer from life-threatening allergies to certain foods (peanuts, tree nuts, seafood, egg, and milk, etc.), medications, insect stings, latex and/or to vigorous exercise. For them, exposure to even a minute amount of the substance to which they are allergic can trigger anaphylaxis. Peanuts are the most likely of all food allergens to trigger full-blown anaphylaxis and the most common cause of fatal food reactions. Peanuts have been the cause of a number of tragic incidents involving students at schools. Even trace amounts (1/1000 of a peanut) can cause a severe life-threatening reaction. Students have even developed reactions after coming into contact with residual peanut butter on tables wiped clean of visible material and with a basketball that had been contaminated with peanut butter. While ingestion of food allergens is the most commonly known cause of reactions, physical contact with a variety of allergens can also cause a similar anaphylactic response.
*Hives may be absent, especially in severe or near-fatal cases of anaphylaxis. Symptoms do not always occur in the same order, even in the same individuals. Time from onset of first symptoms to death can be as little as a few minutes if the reaction is not treated. Even when symptoms have subsided after initial treatment, they can return as much as 8 hours after exposure, regardless of the initial reaction severity.
3.1 Avoidance of a specific allergen is the cornerstone of management in preventing anaphylaxis.
3.2 Eliminating allergens from areas within the camp where the anaphylactic student is likely to come into contact with the allergen may be the only way to reduce risk to an acceptable level. If less allergen is brought into the camp there should be less risk of anaphylactic reactions. While the camp cannot guarantee that an environment is completely safe, the Camp Anaphylaxis Management Policy will include necessary measures and procedures to reduce the risk of anaphylactic reactions and to assist staff in making the camp as "allergen aware" as possible.
3.3 The greatest risk of exposure is in new situations, or when normal daily routines are interrupted such as supply camp instructors in the classroom, shared birthday treats (shared treats are not permitted at camp, staff should not provide food items) or offsite trips. Young students are at the greatest risk of accidental exposure but studies have indicated that more deaths occur among teenagers due to their increased independence, peer pressure, and reluctance to carry medication.
Epinephrine is the only drug that should be administered to a student suffering an anaphylactic reaction. The epinephrine (adrenaline) is administered by an auto-injector called an EpiPen® and can be easily and safely administered by non-medical personnel with minimal training. If a reaction is severe, a single dose of the EpiPen® may not be sufficient to stop an anaphylactic reaction. If symptoms continue or worsen before medical help has arrived, a second EpiPen® must be administered. The student affected must be rushed to hospital to receive further medical attention, even if the symptoms improve with the administration of the EpiPen®.
5.1 Even when precautions are taken, an anaphylactic student may come into contact with an allergen while at camp. It is essential that the camp staff monitor the student and be prepared to administer medication if required.
5.2 Fatalities are more likely to occur away from home and are usually associated with delayed treatment or failure to treat with epinephrine. Those in positions of responsibility should never assume that the student will self-inject in the face of an emergency; a severe allergic reaction may be so incapacitating as to inhibit the ability to self-administer, regardless of age.
5.3 Anaphylactic students usually know when a reaction is taking place. Camp personnel should be encouraged to listen to the student. If it is suspected that the student has been exposed to his/her allergen and a suspected anaphylactic reaction is starting to take place, there should be no hesitation in administering the EpiPen®. Accidental administration of the EpiPen® is not a cause for concern, according to the Canadian Pediatric Society. There is little danger in reacting too quickly, and there may be grave danger in reacting too slowly.
5.4.1 Administer the EpiPen®, noting the time it is given.
5.4.2 The student should be maintained in a lying position.
5.4.3 Telephone 911. Inform the emergency operator that the student is having an anaphylactic reaction.
5.4.4 Contact the location manager.
5.4.6 Have an adult accompany the student to the hospital.
5.4.7 Administer a second EpiPen® in 5-10 minutes only if the reaction continues or worsens. This procedure is to occur while waiting for an ambulance.
6.1 Parent/Legal Guardian or Student (over the age of 18) • Provide a confirmation of diagnosis during registration, the allergy, its severity, and the medication to be taken by the student.
Provide one EpiPen®, that must be located with the student at all times. Families may choose to provide two epipens, the second to be located with the manager. Renew EpiPens® before the expiry date.
Be sure your child wears a Medic-Alert bracelet.
Help your child develop coping skills to avoid the allergen and recognize and communicate the symptoms to a staff member.
Each week obtain a list of anaphylactic students and their allergies.
Identify students who are anaphylactic from registration forms.
Provide each teacher (at the beginning of each week) with a list of students at risk.
Ensure that parents/guardians provide a confirmation of diagnosis.
Establish the anaphylactic student's classroom as an allergy aware area.
Ensure constant adult supervision during nutrition or lunch breaks.
Ensure that peanut/nut avoidance signs are prominently displayed at all entrances, around allergen-aware areas and at all common areas.
When supply teachers are covering classes with anaphylactic students, ensure that the supply staff is made aware of the emergency procedures for those students. Speak personally with the supply staff so that there are no questions about whether the staff has read and understood the information shared.
Increase students', parents', and legal guardians' awareness of anaphylaxis, its avoidance, and its treatment.
Garbage containers should be removed from doorways to reduce the risk of insect induced anaphylaxis.
Cafeteria food should not contain peanut/nut products. French fries, for example, can be made with oils that contain peanut products.
Vending machines on site should not be used by students, we do not have control of their contents.
Ensure that the EpiPen® is taken on offsite trips.
Continually provide a safe environment for the anaphylactic student, particularly during nutrition breaks and during offsite trips and special activities.
Anaphylactic students should not be involved in garbage disposal, yard clean-ups, or other activities that could bring them into contact with food wrappers, containers, or debris.
Conduct food safety discussions with all students at the beginning of the week while exercising sensitivity to impact on affected student's need for privacy.
Stress the importance of not sharing lunches, snacks, utensils or containers.
Anaphylactic students should not eat any foods that do not have ingredient labels (i.e. bulk foods & home baking) or products that have "may contain peanuts/nuts" warnings on the labels. • Encourage/organize celebrations and activities that are not focused on food. Be aware of hidden allergens in play dough, bean bags, counting aids, pet foods and birdseed etc.

Tiny House Village to Shelter the Homeless in Texas
The project, which is set to break ground next year, will include places for residents to live, garden, worship, and work.

In Austin, Texas, a project to offer affordable housing to some 200 chronically homeless citizens is on the move. Community First! Village, which has been in the planning stages for nearly 10 years, is set to soon break ground on a 27-acre property sprinkled with tiny houses, mobile homes, teepees, refurbished RVs, a three-acre community garden, a chapel, a medical facility, a workshop, a bed and breakfast, and an Alamo Drafthouse outdoor movie theater.
Graham views Community First! as the next step toward solving homelessness.
Supporter Alan Graham, of Mobile Loaves and Fishes, notes that the price of not housing these folks costs taxpayers about $10 million a year, not to mention the emotional and psychological tolls on the homeless themselves.
Graham says that, for the most part, local residents seem to be in favor of the project. "We haven't converted everybody," he says, "but when people come out here they go, 'Oh!' They see a chapel, they see medical and vocational services on site, and they learn that residents will not live there for free. They'll pay a monthly rent."
Graham has been working with the homeless in his community for more than 14 years and cites broken families as the leading cause of homelessness. With Mobile Loaves and Fishes, Graham has not only helped feed the homeless all these years, but he has helped transition them into homes and jobs as well.
And he has given them hope. Graham views Community First! as the next step in that mission and the next step toward solving homelessness in the U.S.
As the local NPR station (KUT) reports, Alamo Drafthouse's founder Tim League is another outspoken cheerleader for Community First! Village. In fact, he calls it "the very first 'Yes, in my backyard' project."
