Seven Samurai (Shichinin No Samurai) [1954]
Arguably one of Akira Kurosawa's grandest ventures, Seven Samurai is a landmark movie of such epic proportions that most viewers would be left overwhelmed by its sheer force. Set in the feudal, war-torn society of erstwhile Japan, the movie is perhaps the epitome of honour, bravery, duty, friendship, loyalty and the art of war through strategy and cunning. At over 3 hours long, viewing the movie might appear daunting to viewers accustomed to watching sub-2 hour long films, but one can rest assured that "bored" is one word that no one in their right senses would associate with any of the sequences filmed herein. The legendary tale of seven samurai, hired by the people of a poor terror-stricken village, to fight against a group of 40 bandits, is just one aspect of the movie; the detailed etching of each of the seven samurai with all their traits, skills and idiosyncrasies, the exquisitely composed battle scenes, the human story of love, prejudice, suffering, self-centeredness, struggle, vindication and the greater glory, the lyrical beauty of humanism and service above self, the detailed team-formation and strategizing of battle plan (and its near-clinical execution), and of course the splendid performance by the actors – these are but a few of the features that would be forever engrained in the minds of every cine-goer and film-lover. The movie was remade in America as The Seven Magnificent Men, that, though entertaining, never achieved the awesome beauty of this Kurosawa masterpiece. It was also the chief inspiration behind the majestic Hindi movie Sholay.

The Postman Always Rings Twice [1946]
Adapted from pulp fiction novelist James M. Cain's most popular work, The Postman Always Rings Twice is a classical film noir movie. The idea of a weak man who is casually seduced by a sultry blond femme fatale (in the garb of a damsel in distress) to murder her husband has been well presented through deft psychological foreplay, an incessant shadow of the impending doom, moody atmosphere and a clinically edited voiceover. John Garfield, a drifter with the "road fever" makes a fatal choice of location by stopping for employment at a rural diner. He ends up having a torrid illicit affair with the owner's wife, played famously by Lana Turner. What follows is a tale of lust, deceit, and cold blooded murder. The title, though apparently a non-sequitur, is explained at the climax – that crime never goes unpunished and sooner or later fate has a strange habit of catching up. Though lacking on the cynical dialogue or novel plot development fronts, heavily toned down in order to be acceptable to the then censor board, and very melodramatic and verbose at times, the movie nonetheless more than made up for them through fine acting, tense atmosphere, raw chemistry between the leads and the bleak irony of its climax. Though later remade starring Jack Nicholson and Jessica Lange and without any boundaries imposed through pseudo-moralities of the censor board, this 1946 black-and-white version still remains the best adaptation of the Cain masterpiece. And along with Double Indemnity it remains one of the best adaptations of Cain novels for the silver screen.

Crossed Tracks (Roman de Gare) [2007]
Brought to Calcutta for the discerning film goers thanks to the philanthropic endeavour of NDTV Lumierre, Crossed Tracks is the kind of thriller that will engage the viewers without providing any staple for edge-of-your-seat popcorn-and-cola entertainment. The story is simple and without a plethora of red herrings or startling plot twists; rather it is contented with employing a few small deviously deceptive moments of human misjudgments, maladroitness, ingenuity and errata. The tale (shot in a simplistic and almost minimalist fashion), bereft of explosive developments, has a strange ability to allure and involve the viewer's faculty. The well-enacted protagonist, an unattractive, diminutive and mysterious man could be any of the following – a struggling small-time writer, a dangerous escaped convict who lures children into his traps by showing magic tricks, a man who has run away from his family, or a ghost writer for a famous, best-selling novelist. The movie comprises in its sub-plots a developing love-story, a murderous angle, and conning of identity. The movie, though never enthralling, delights on account of its subtle concoction of humour and suspense.

Yojimbo (The Bodyguard) [1961]
Though not as universally renowned as Rashomon or Seven Samurai, Yojimbo is often considered to be Akira Kurosawa's most influential work. If not anything, it remains one of the most quintessential and archetypal lone ranger movies ever made – a template that was famously remade into the spaghetti western For A Few Dollars More by Sergio Leone. Sanjuro (brilliantly played by Kurosawa regular Toshiro Mifune), the original 'Man With No Name', is a bored, detached and laconic Samurai. He is seemingly devoid of morals, friends and rules. But he believes in vigilante justice – the kind where end justifies the means, and he becomes doubly effective because he is a master swordsman with no equals. So when he decides to play the two sides of a warring faction of a ravaged village against each other, his principle foe turns out to be, quite appropriately, a character straight out of Western movies – a crafty, gun-slinging antagonist. The brutal action sequences have been magnificently juxtaposed with terrific character developments and moments of subtle humanism; case in point: the scene of a dog casually strolling by with a piece of a person's chopped-off hand in its mouth is as jarring to the senses, as the beautifully composed background score played during the movie's love-story sub-plot is moving. Stellar performances by the two principle leads add to the dynamic energy and flashes of dark humour of the script.

Shoot the Piano Player/Tirez Sur Le Pianiste [1960]
is the movie that the former Cashier Du Cinema critic and legendary French director Francois Truffaut is universally associated with. However it was his second feature Shoot the Piano Player that not only formed one of the most defining movies of the French Nouvelle Vague movement, but is also considered by many as his greatest achievement. Arguably Truffaut's most audacious and experimental work, it was his undying homage to Film Noir and Gangster movies, as well as, to a lesser degree, B-movies, musicals and farcical comedies – a pastiche to American genre movies in general. Loosely based on a pulp thriller, the movie comprises of a free-flowing blend of iconoclastic New Wave techniques like jump cuts, unrelated montages, ad-libs, improvised screenplay, dialogues that at times have no bearing with the scene under consideration, etc. The story of a washed out divorced piano player, trying to escape his past, and forced to be on the run by shady thugs, is fairly straightforward. But the memorable dialogues, brilliant comical interludes, moments of heart-touching delight and humanism, self parody, and marvelous turns by the leads, especially the actor (a famous singer in real life) who played the role of the chief protagonist, make this a truly exceptional work of cinematic achievement. The movie counts among its famous proteges Tarantino's Reservoir Dogs and Pulp Fiction.

The Devil's Backbone (El Espinazo Del Diablo) [2001]
The ghosts and demons of the real world are far more horrific than their counterparts who are trapped in a metaphysical environment – this is a theme that the supremely talented Mexican director Guillermo Del Toro firmly believes in, and the portrayal of this belief attained marvelous levels in The Devil's Backbone. This is a movie with extraordinary power and with an immense ability to touch the viewer's heart despite the unflinching (and brilliantly photographed) onscreen violence. The Spanish Civil War is in full rage; meanwhile, in a school for orphan kids owned and run by a loving patriarch and his incapacitated wife who are in essence rebel sympathizers, some murky secrets are lurking round the shadows. Told through the eyes of a young kid Carlos who has recently been admitted to the school, the movie deftly reveals the whereabouts of Santi, a former student of the school who disappeared the day the "bomb" was dropped. Right from its exquisitely crafted opening monologue on "ghosts", the fluid narrative manages to engage the viewers with facile ease. Boasting of a series of fine performances, including from all the kids, and comprising of subtle moments of a plethora of human emotions ranging from joy and sorrow to pride, lust and envy, the supernatural thriller is as potent a socio-political statement as captivating it is in purely cinematic terms.

Righteous Kill [2008]
Righteous Kill is the kind of movie that lovers of popcorn detective thrillers wouldn't mind watching, but suffice it to say that it would be futile to expect a classy, memorable murder mystery like say Heat; the fact that it has been directed by Jon Avnet, whose resume includes the horrendous 88 Minutes, should be enough of a clue. Set in New York City, the movie has a run-of-the-mill plot even though it has been given a pretentious arty look. But, as one fellow blogger has aptly put it, any movie starring Robert De Nero – one of the greatest actors ever, and Al Pacino – a favourite among movie-goers, can never be bad. And at times, De Nero, as Turk with his evil grin, and Pacino, as Rooster with his smooth talking, did let the sparks fly. But the good cop-bad cop buddy story with a serial killer (with a penchant for juvenile poetry) angle fails to be very engaging. The city too fails to be a fifth character even though there was ample scope for it. The movie, thus, ultimately comes down to the onscreen chemistry and rivalry of the two legendary American warhorses.

Back to the Future trilogy [1985, 1989, 1990]
One of the most immensely enjoyable film franchises to have come out of Hollywood, the trilogy from Robert Zemeckis didn't just entertain us to the hilt but also raised some thought-provoking issues (without being didactic). On the surface it is a science fiction comedy well enacted by Michael J. Fox and Christopher Lloyd as the quick witted, smart ass Marty and the wildly eccentric serial-inventor Doc, respectively. The chemistry they share among themselves as well as with the other equally memorable characters makes the movies very alluring. The goofy, free spirited tone, and the extremely original spiraling storylines are responsible for immensely adding to the enjoyment quotient. On the other hand, the satirical pun-laden depiction of the past and the dark paranoia-filled post apocalyptic future, provide a well disguised philosophical angle for the more serious viewers. Its sugar coated critique on Americana and nostalgia, too, isn't lost on the viewers. While the first episode of the series is a hilarious old-fashioned mad-cap science fiction, the sequel (the weakest link in the trilogy) is in the mould of a dark tech-noir; the final chapter is a loving homage to the good old days of the wild, wild west.

The Last Lear [2008]
Bengali auteur Rituparno Ghosh's latest outing has generated a lot of hype not only because this is his first English feature, but also because of his collaboration with Amitabh Bachchan. A number of people are of the opinion that this is the best performance of the iconic Bollywood actor. I will not go into that debate, but there's no doubt about the fact that Last Lear is nowhere near Ghosh's best works like Utsab and Dahan. At the heart of the movie, in a not so subtle but finely delineated manner, lies the age-old struggle between theatre and cinema, which was the principle theme of Ray's masterpiece Nayak, too. Bachchan has delivered a powerful performance of Harry – a fiery, brooding, and fiercely independent Shakespearean actor, trapped in a time warp, and for whom "All the World's a Stage". The movie, told in elaborate flashbacks, essentially deals with how the veteran stage actor is coaxed into acting in a movie by an equally independent and obstinate director, and the disastrous aftermaths this leads to. The movie, though leisurely in pace, has an underplayed captivating quality, which maybe chiefly attributed to the arresting play between light and darkness. Though Indian actors starring in an English language movie might feel slightly disconcerting for some and the "explosive" climax doesn't really create any palpable impact per se, but it would be worthwhile for Ghosh aficionados to have a go at it.

In the Mood for Love (Fa Yeung Nin Wa) [2000]
Perhaps the most restrained effort of Hong Kong maestro Wong Kar-Wai till date, In the Mood for Love is a beautiful movie that explores, with (infinite) sensitivity, themes like extra-marital affair, unrequited love and platonic relationship. It is 1962 Hong Kong, and the two protagonists of the movie, Mr. Chow – a journalist, and Mrs. Chan – an office secretary, have moved in a vibrant building as neighbours along with their spouses. Living next doors the two lonely individuals cross their paths over a period of time, and their acquaintance gradually changes to friendship, which becomes more profound (and reaches surreal, heart-touching depths) when they realize that their respective spouses are having an affair with each other. Their lovely yet restrained friendship and understated love are evocatively juxtaposed against their cramped apartments and offices, and the rise of Communism in China; like they say, it was the best of times, it was the worst of times. Heartfelt performances by the leads (Tony Leung is exceptional), languid camera movements and terrific use of background score (Nat King Cole's lilting voice has produced a haunting effect) add to the beauty of the most un-Wong Kar-Wai movie of his fantastic filmography. Though never as brilliant as Chungking Express, it neverthelesss attains heart-warming proportions.

The Big Sleep [1946]
Raymond Chandler's first novel The Big Sleep isn't just one of my favourite books, it also happens to be one of the most groundbreaking in the genre of gumshoe pulp fictions. And of course it also introduced the irresistible private dick Phillip Marlowe drenched in an overdose of cynicism, wisecracks and sardonic humour. To cut a long story short, I had to watch this movie. Even though it is literally impossible to capture the labyrinthine plot, all the underplayed intricacies (what with the draconian Hays' Code in place) and the layered nuances of the various characters in a 2-hour feature, still I was expecting that perhaps Mr. Howard Hawks had managed to do the impossible; consequently, the movie left me a tad disappointed. However, that aside, the movie is admittedly a cornerstone in the great American genre of film noirs, with its moody atmosphere, and a crisply delineated depiction of the dark underbelly of the post-war society filled with crime and lack of the so-called inherent goodness of life. And of course, the sterling performances by Humphrey Bogart and Lauren Bacall, and the heavy undertones of their sexual chemistry nearly set the screen on fire.

Wanted [2008]
If you have some time to kill and you've exhausted all viable options, you might as well watch Wanted; but if you are a regular at forums for art cinema, infested with literati and intellectuals, do yourself a favour by not revealing you actually watched this one. So this is probably the last time I'll let the world know that I've watched this unintentionally funny and overtly fantastical yet another brought-to-screen-from-graphic-novel popcorn action thriller. The movie involves a cult group of assassins, revenge, a chase sequence reminiscent of Terminator II, action scenes heavily "influenced" from Matrix, son-getting-reacquainted-with-his long-lost-daddy stuff, to name a few – but lets not spoil the fun for would be viewers by revealing more. However I must warn all you lovers of kick-ass movies – the stunt scenes here are ludicrous at best and ridiculous at worst. The director even managed to make Anjelina Jolie look dumb. The only saving grace of the movie perhaps was that Jolie was kind enough to let us have an extended look at her exquisitely-shaped and utterly delicious uncovered posterior to help us recover a part of the money we paid for the proceeds. And yes, if you have a company to share the laughs like I did, you might actually have some no-brainer fun at the cost of the hapless actors and the over-ambitious director.

Is there some way, when we enter script_2 to save the old __main__ context, make script_2 the new __main__, and before going back into script_1, restore the old context?

A: Important note: i agree with the comments. It is very suspicious that you need to do that
For the sport, here is a way to do waht you ask using importlib:
script_2.py:
if __name__ == '__main__':
    print('script_2 is the main!')

script_1.py:
import importlib.util

spec.loader.exec_module(mod)

The T-shirts and hats are going to make the trip to Miami. Whether anyone gets to break them out, however, is yet to be determined.
FOXBORO � The T-shirts and hats are going to make the trip to Miami.
Whether anyone gets to break them out, however, is yet to be determined.
The 8-3 Patriots can clinch the AFC East title with a win over the Miami Dolphins on Sunday, even with four games remaining on the schedule. The Dolphins stand three games back, at 5-6, and the Buffalo Bills and New York Jets both are 4-7.
Because the Patriots already have swept Buffalo and New York, they hold the tiebreaker over both teams � and a win Sunday would ensure they�d be at least four games up on both with four to play.
New England will host Miami at Gillette Stadium in their regular-season finale on Dec. 30. But a Patriots win on Sunday would mean the Dolphins could do no better than a split of the season series. The Dolphins then would be eliminated from division-title contention because they�d be 1-3 in AFC East games � the next tiebreaker after head-to-head record � while the Patriots would be 5-0.
The flip side to the quick turnaround to prepare for a Thanksgiving game last week was the chance for a little time to kick back and relax over the weekend.
Patriots players didn�t really have a chance to get out of town and go anywhere like they did during their bye week. But they did have a chance to enjoy Thanksgiving dinner with their families � albeit a day late � and even to watch some football from their couches.
Unlike the three days leading up to the Thanksgiving game, the Patriots now can approach their preparation for their game at Miami like it�s a typical week.
�It brings everything back to normal now as we start a new week and get ready for Miami,� defensive back Devin McCourty said.
New England didn�t need to trounce the New York Jets the way they did to continue building the confidence they�ve been building, particularly on the defensive side of the ball.
That win certainly helped, though.
As has become typical of the Belichick-coached Patriots, the defense seems to be playing its best football as the weather gets colder and the stakes get higher. A defense that allowed 20 or more points in five of its first six games has allowed 20 points just once in its last four � and they�re creating turnovers as well as any team in the NFL.
With Gregory coming back from injury and the acquisition of Aqib Talib, the roles in the defensive secondary appear to be sorting themselves out.


Despite your best efforts, you're miserable at work.
People are acting strangely; there's lots of whispering and side bar conversations in the hallways; conversations behind closed doors have become the norm. You're pretty sure it's not just you who's seeing this and feeling the impact.
You're dedicated to your work and your organization's mission but all that seems less and less important the more unhappy you become. You're in a crummy spot and not quite sure what your next move should be.
And when this type of anxiety and stress creeps in, it can be hard to even feel good about your own work.
When it gets like this at work, you can feel like the crazy circus has come to town.
Scary clowns, unstable stilt walkers, and enormous elephants crowd the streets, creating chaos and leaving garbage (or worse) all over the place. You feel like a high-wire trapeze artist or a lion tamer navigating around a dangerous workplace.
Just like at a circus sideshow, you feel like you've stumbled into a hall of mirrors, where reality becomes distorted and warped, and it's hard to tell what's real.
Suddenly, colleagues you used to trust are acting unusually, and you feel like you're walking on eggshells as certain topics and issues at work are taboo or so charged that no one will touch them.
Rather than blaming the people around you, which only leads to defensiveness, look for what is your request underneath the frustrations you have. What do you want? What do you need? How can you ask for it?
Rather than looking for what you don't share with your colleagues or your organization, look for what small thing you all align around. What's the common goal? Focus there first. Remember that you don't have to fully agree with someone to work effectively with them.
As they say, it takes two to tango: what's your role or part in the circus? Understanding what you contribute to any situation, and changing your own behavior, is in your control.
Don't go it alone. Check in with a mentor or trusted source about what's going on. Asking for help or feedback is a sign of maturity and confidence, not a measure of weakness.
The Polish have a saying: Not my circus, not my monkeys. Meaning: not my problem. Own what is yours to change, and don't overtake responsibility for what isn't yours to fix.
In the Comments below, tell me: what do you do when your workplace feels a circus? Tell me too: which of my suggestions could help most when your workplace feels crazy?
Can You Really Build Trust In Your Team?

BACKGROUND: The aim of this study was to emphasize the impact of the aspartate aminotransferase-to-alanine aminotransferase ratio (De Ritis ratio) on the prognosis of patients with stable coronary artery disease (SCAD) undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).
MATERIAL AND METHODS: Patients with SCAD who underwent elective PCI at Shinonoi General Hospital were included. SCAD was defined as epicardial coronary artery diameter stenosis ≥90% or epicardial coronary artery diameter stenosis ≥75% accompanied by symptoms or stress-induced myocardial ischemia. Clinical data were collected, and cardiovascular events were followed after discharge. One-way Cox proportional risk analysis was performed to assess the risk stratification value of the De Ritis ratio, using major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events (MACCE) and all-cause mortality as the primary and secondary endpoints, respectively. The independent risk stratification value was evaluated by multivariate Cox proportional risk analysis.
RESULTS: Among 204 patients with SCAD undergoing PCI, during a median follow-up period of 706 days (24 months), 13.7% (28/204) patients experienced MACCE, and 8.8% (18/204) experienced all-cause mortality. Multifactorial Cox regression analysis revealed that a high De Ritis ratio was an independent risk factor for MACCE (HR=2.96, 95% CI: 1.29-6.78, P=0.01) and all-cause mortality (HR=3.61, 95% Cl: 1.31-9.86, P=0.012). The sensitivity analysis further confirmed the incremental value of the De Ritis ratio for adverse cardiovascular events.
CONCLUSIONS: A high De Ritis ratio was an independent and valuable risk stratification factor for MACCE and all-cause mortality in patients with SCAD after PCI.
Keywords: Alanine Transaminase, Aspartate Aminotransferases, Coronary Artery Disease, Prognosis
Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) has reduced the incidence of major adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events (MACCE) in patients with stable coronary artery disease (SCAD) with sufficient evidence of ischemia; however, some patients still have a poor prognosis [1]. Recent studies have shown that a high aspartate aminotransferase-to-alanine aminotransferase ratio (De Ritis ratio) is associated with a worse prognosis in patients with acute myocardial infarction [2,3] and acute heart failure [4]. Study also have shown that an elevated De Ritis ratio on admission was significantly associated with intensive care unit mortality and hospital mortality after cardiac arrest [5]. The De Ritis ratio reflects the severity of hepatic insufficiency [6], and patients with coronary artery disease complicated by hepatic insufficiency have a high incidence of perioperative complications [7,8]. However, research on the relationship between the De Ritis ratio and the prognosis of patients with SCAD undergoing PCI is still lacking. This study aimed to evaluate the relationship between the De Ritis ratio and prognosis in patients undergoing elective PCI for SCAD.
STUDY POPULATION:
The population in this study was obtained from a single-center retrospective cohort using open data [9]. The study included patients with SCAD who underwent elective PCI at Shinonoi General Hospital from October 2014 to October 2017. SCAD was defined as epicardial coronary artery diameter stenosis ≥90% or epicardial coronary artery diameter stenosis ≥75% accompanied by exercise-induced chest pain or stress-induced myocardial ischemia, confirmed by any clinical stress test. Patients with diagnoses of old myocardial infarction and malignant tumors were excluded. Finally, 204 patients were included in this study. The study was approved by the Ethics Committee of Shinonoi General Hospital, and written informed consent was obtained from all patients. Our study was a secondary analysis based on the data described above, and all patient information was kept anonymous. Therefore, informed patient consent and ethics committee approval were not required.
DATA COLLATION AND VARIABLE DEFINITION:
Clinical features, including clinical characteristics, medical history, major risk factors for coronary artery disease, complications, laboratory tests, electrocardiogram, echocardiography, angiography data, and discharge medications, were collected. A multivessel lesion was defined as a 3-vessel lesion. The patients were subsequently followed up after discharge to document all-cause mortality, non-fatal myocardial infarction, and non-fatal stroke outcomes. The main endpoint of this study was MACCE, including all-cause mortality, non-fatal myocardial infarction, and non-fatal stroke. The secondary endpoint was all-cause mortality.
Continuous variables are expressed as mean and standard deviation, and the t test was used for comparison between the groups. Categorical variables are expressed as absolute values and proportions, and the chi-square test was used for comparison between the groups. In this study, it was assumed that the missing clinical features occurred randomly, and multiple interpolations were performed using the random forest method in the multivariate imputation by chained equation (MICE) function of the MICE package, assuming missing clinical features. The integrated dataset was randomly split using the CreateDataPartition function of the caret package. According to the De Ritis ratio, patients were divided into low (<1.85) and high (≥1.85) De Ritis ratio groups. Kaplan-Meier survival charts were plotted and compared using the log-rank test. One-way Cox proportional risk analysis was conducted with primary and secondary endpoints as predicted outcomes. Multivariate calibration was conducted using age, body mass index (BMI), serum albumin, C-reactive protein, and multivessel lesion as covariates to assess the independent risk stratification value of the De Ritis ratio. Furthermore, in the sensitivity analysis, Cox proportional risk model A was fitted with age, BMI, serum albumin, C-reactive protein, and multivessel lesion as dependent variables. Model B was fitted by incorporating the De Ritis ratio into model A. The comparison between models A and B was used to evaluate the incremental predictive value of the De Ritis ratio. A P value <0.05 was considered as statistically significant. All statistical analyses were performed using R 4.1.3 software (The R foundation for Statistical Computing, Vienna, Austria).
POPULATION INFORMATION:
A total of 204 patients who underwent PCI for SCAD were included in the study (Table 1). Among these patients (142 men, 69.6%), 74.0% had hypertension and 35.8% had diabetes mellitus. The high De Ritis ratio group had a higher age and lower BMI, albumin levels, hemoglobin concentration, and creatinine clearance than the low De Ritis ratio group. During the median follow-up period of 706 days (24 months), MACCE occurred in 13.7% (28/204) of patients, and all-cause mortality occurred in 8.8% (18/204). MACCE and all-cause mortality occurred in 33.3% and 10.7% of the patients in the high De Ritis ratio group, respectively, compared with 10.7% and 6.2% in the low De Ritis ratio group.
SINGLE FACTOR ANALYSIS:
Taking MACCE and all-cause mortality as dependent variables and the De Ritis ratio as the independent variable, the results of the univariate analysis showed that a high De Ritis ratio was related to MACCE (hazard ratio [HR]=3.60, 95% CI: 1.60–7.90, P=0.002) and all-cause mortality (HR=4.70, 95% CI: 1.80–12.00, P=0.001). The Kaplan-Meier analysis showed the same results (Figure 1).
MULTIVARIATE REGRESSION ANALYSIS:
In the multivariate Cox regression analysis, MACCE and all-cause mortality were used as dependent variables, De Ritis ratio as the independent variable, and age, BMI, serum albumin, and C-reactive protein as covariates. Similar to the single-factor analysis, the De Ritis ratio was related to MACCE (HR=2.96, 95% CI: 1.29–6.78, P=0.01) and all-cause mortality (HR=3.61, 95% CI: 1.31–9.86, P=0.012) (Figure 2).
SENSITIVITY ANALYSIS:
Cox proportional risk model A was fitted with age, BMI, serum albumin, and C-reactive protein, and model B was fitted by incorporating the De Ritis ratio into model A. The De Ritis ratio increased the predictive value of model B compared with that of model A for MACCE and all-cause mortality, with the improved concordance index during the follow-up period (Figure 3).
This study evaluated the correlation between the De Ritis ratio and prognosis in patients with SCAD undergoing selective PCI. The results revealed that a high De Ritis ratio was independently and significantly associated with a high risk of MACCE and all-cause mortality, and that the De Ritis ratio was another valuable risk stratification factor.
Previous studies have demonstrated that a low BMI [10], low serum albumin [9], high C-reactive protein level [11], and multivessel lesion [12] are associated with a high risk of MACCE in patients with SCAD. Also, Alqahtani et al found an increased risk of acute myocardial infarction and in-hospital mortality in patients undergoing PCI for liver cirrhosis compared with in those with non-liver cirrhosis [13]. Thus, Steininger et al included 1355 patients with acute myocardial infarction and attempted to investigate the predictive potential of the De Ritis ratio on the prognosis of patients after acute myocardial infarction from a long-term perspective. Those results showed that the De Ritis ratio was a strong and independent predictor of their long-term mortality, with an adjusted HR of 1.23 (95% CI: 1.07–1.42, P=0.004) [3]. Additionally, Maeda et al discussed the relationship between the De Ritis ratio and prognosis of patients with acute heart failure and found that a high De-Ritis ratio was an independent prognostic factor for acute heart failure [4]. A retrospective cohort study including 6264 patients undergoing cardiovascular surgery also showed that a high De Ritis ratio was positively correlated with mortality [14]. More importantly, consistent with the above studies, the De Ritis ratio was associated with the risk of MACCE and all-cause mortality after adjustment for previous risk factors with long-term follow-up, and the introduction of the De Ritis ratio in the previous risk factors resulted in improved risk prediction performance in patients with SCAD undergoing selective PCI.
Previous studies have shown that the degree of hepatic fibrosis is related to the development of atherosclerosis [15]. Chronic liver disease and coronary artery disease have similar pathogeneses, but the exact mechanism remains unclear. Some possible pathways include insulin resistance, lipid disorders, inflammation [16], and increased production of various thromboplastins by the liver, such as fetuin A, which promotes the formation of atherosclerotic plaques and accelerates vascular calcium deposition in patients with hepatic fibrosis [17]. Gjin et al showed that alanine aminotransferase was negatively correlated with 3-year cardiovascular mortality in patients with coronary artery disease diagnosed as having no abnormal liver function and that low alanine aminotransferase levels may reflect the risk of cardiovascular disease better than traditional risk factors [18]. Furthermore, identifying the cause of liver damage and active intervention can help to optimize secondary prevention strategies and improve patient prognosis.
This study has several limitations. First, this was a post hoc analysis of a retrospective cohort study, which inevitably had selection or regression bias. Second, the population analyzed in the study was solely from a Japanese hospital, and the research conclusion needs more analysis of populations from different regions and races. Third, patients with high levels of both aspartate aminotransferase and alanine aminotransferase can have evident liver damage, but the De Ritis ratio may not be high, which is the limitation of this ratio.
This study demonstrated that a high De Ritis ratio in patients with SCAD undergoing PCI was an independent and valuable risk stratification factor for MACCE and all-cause mortality. This conclusion needs to be confirmed in a multi-center study.

God is the Father of light.
There has been more bloodshed in the name of God than for any other cause. And it is all because people never attempt to reach the fountain-head. They are content only to comply with the customs of their forefathers, and want others to do the same.
1I smiled bitterly, a defeated man pitifully begging a God in whom he had never trusted.
Maundy Thursday is so called because that night, the night before he was betrayed, Jesus gave the command, the mandatum, that we should love one another. Not necessarily with the love of our desiring, but with a demanding love, even a demeaning love-as in washing the feet of faithless friends who will run away and leave you naked to your enemies.
At one point, I began to think that I had a divine doorman. Lenny was the most unlikely incarnation of God I could imagine, and yet, I kept drifting irresistibly towards this absurd conclusion. Despite my staunchly atheistic inclinations, I couldn't explain Lenny any other way. But eventually I came to my senses and realized that he was just one of those game show freaks with an encyclopedic memory. That didn't make him God, did it? Would God proclaim so regularly how much he likes Patsy's Pizza?
Religious unity and religious tolerance are not the same thing. Unity doesn't come merely through tolerance. You don't need to tolerate people from other religions. It is time you start loving them. Toleration may make you a decent person, but it is love that makes you a true human being.
Any fool can start a religion. And many do.
We have therefore on one hand Cathar men and women, renowned as weavers, agricultural workers, doctors, and educators, who conformed as closely as possible to the accepted Christian code of life, and on the other hand, we have a Catholic clergy of immense corruption and materialism.

Open Lawyer Proceedings among the subjects of new Supreme Court filing
On January 14, 2018 January 14, 2018 By leonkozioljdIn Call To Action, Uncategorized
Dr. Leon Koziol and associates advocating for parental equality in a petition for writ filed here at the United States Supreme Court in 2016. A relevant news release was reviewed by editors of the Washington Post at the time (as confirmed by one of their correspondents). Now that opportunity will arise again with a petition filed this week seeking protection for judicial whistleblowers and open hearings for lawyer discipline
By Dr. Leon Koziol
On January 9, 2018, I filed for a writ before the United States Supreme Court which raises precedent questions for lawyers across the country. It also seeks legal protection for judicial whistleblowers. While laws have been enacted for decades giving such protection to other whistleblowers in government and private employment, no such protection has been extended to those who expose corruption in the judiciary and legal profession.
My ordeal is a watershed example of the horrific injustices which can occur whenever, and if ever, a lawyer takes a conscientious stand against his profession. Within weeks of my testimony before the Moreland Commission on Public Corruption at Pace University in 2013, my daughters, livelihood and law licenses were taken from me by lawyers and justices who were exposed for their corruption of parents and children in our divorce and family courts. I compared their misconduct to a "docket sheet in any criminal court."
Former federal prosecutors Preet Bharara and Loretta Lynch (prior to her elevation to U.S. Attorney General) also testified the same day. I was one of the few focused on our judicial branch of government. Now the Supreme Court will have an opportunity to decide whether the third branch is above the law applied to the other two when it comes to First Amendment protection for judicial whistleblowers, those most familiar and qualified to shed light on the corruption of justice which is rampant there.
Only recently, as reported to mutual followers by Dr. Richard Cordero, Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts has appointed a Second Circuit (Manhattan) appeals judge to investigate growing reports of sexual harassment in our federal judiciary. Yet gender discrimination against fathers and persecution of non-custodial mothers continue in the same judiciary without so much as a footnote of concern (in diversity, international and unwarranted abstention cases).
However, perhaps for the first time, my cases raise the question of whether attorney disciplinary hearings should be made universally public across the country. And this should be of paramount concern to the media and litigants everywhere. In my case, misconduct by ethics lawyers was covered up or suppressed in the targeting of my law license. My ex-secretary finally went to jail in 2016 for felonies she committed against later law office employers but not for those against me when tampering with mail, court calendars and office funds in an outside scheme to set me up for my public criticisms.
The ethics lawyers engaged in the witch hunt against me were ultimately terminated for falsifying time sheets but were never publicly prosecuted for any criminal or ethics violations. My custody judge (Bryan Hedges) was removed from my case and the bench one year later after admitting to sexual abuse of his handicapped five year old niece. And a divorce lawyer in my region (Robert Sossen) was convicted of tax evasion on some $2 million in unreported income. He served a jail term but suffered no loss of licensing privileges while I am approaching eight years of suspension without even an accusation of any crime and ethics issues caused by a now convicted felon of my former law office.
Yes it is an injustice of epic proportion for one of the most conscientious lawyers in all of New York state. And it is showing no sign of abatement. However my two cases pending simultaneously before the Supreme Courts of New York and United States may make a very positive impact for all moms and dads victimized in these courts. That is because government transparency does not end on the steps of our courthouses. If my ten years of orchestrated (retaliatory) ethics proceedings had been public, none of the horrific injustices would have resulted.
And those of you who paid exorbitant lawyer fees while incurring similar injustices to your parenting rights and child relationships would have genuine accountability (not the mere 10% of cases investigated by our judicial commissions). Put simply I am asking the Supreme Court to standardize lawyer regulation proceedings in all fifty states and make them subject to a presumption of open public access (hearings and records).
This is not a novel request. In 2015, the Supreme Court placed all attorney disciplinary proceedings there under the same presumption. Here is how I justified it in my filings. I drew from my history of sexual harassment prosecutions early in my career (timely with the Justice Roberts investigation) and I questioned why other professionals including a former president (disbarred lawyer Bill Clinton) faced public scrutiny for their misconduct but lawyers in New York and elsewhere do not. Here is a relevant excerpt from my writ filing:
There is nothing significant to distinguish lawyer accountability proceedings from other categories of litigation. Indeed the doctor (employer) who was initially cleared of sexual harassment claims in a case prosecuted by petitioner early in his career was not favored with such confidentiality. Nor was he benefited when that dismissal was reversed unanimously by the Second Circuit and later found liable on the same trial record, Currie v Kowalewski, 810 F. Supp. 31 (NDNY 1993)("Currie I"); Currie v Kowalewski, 842 F. Supp. 57 (1994) ("Currie II"
CRUCIAL NOTE: It is important to share this post with media, fellow victims and organizations who should file a supporting brief while that window period allows. Do it for the sake of parents, innocent children and victimized litigants everywhere. The sacrifices I have made will be for naught with this continued epidemic of apathy which I have experienced on the subject. That apathy, useless keyboarding and war story telling only encourage the misconduct of judges and lawyers.

The CLW Springfield location has serving the Clark County area since 2008. Since the opening day, CLW has continued in making strides in client achievements, and keeping up with the ever changing growth of this field.
One of the best stories that I can share, that will sum up what we offer and provide, is a story about David. At CLW we were having a carnival day, that consisted of playing a bunch of games and everyone dressed up in costumes. It was fantastic. David, on this day was dressed as a fortune teller, and even had a fortune teller booth. He stopped me and asked if I wanted my fortune read. Of course I said yes. As he grabbed my hand and pulled me in closer to him, without batting an eye he looked at me and said, "You are going to help me find a job one day." After I celebrated that moment, I contacted his Path Coordinator and got the ball rolling on community employment. About a year after that carnival day, David has a job doing office work at a local company. The day he was hired, he threw his arms up and said, "I did it! I did it!"

Musings of a Museum Fanatic: Pin all the things!
Pretty sure I say something to this extent every week but yay for finally being Friday and the weekend! For most of the day and currently my brain just has been out for the weekend already so Pinterest got some fun new finds!
Kevin and I haven't carved pumpkins yet this year and this one looks awesome. Although on a second look it does look somewhat difficult haha. It is a template though ... we shall see what happens. Maybe I can get Kevin do this one.
I totally have all the basic elements for this outfit! Adding this one to the now pinned need to try it list. During our Gamma Phi shopping night this month I splurged and got a really pretty red silky infinity scarf, can't wait to wear this one.
Can someone make this for me like now? Please? Thanks!!! YUM!
That Ariel pumpkin is so cool! Mine this year was Linus from the Great Pumpkin special (my favorite) and my husband did Boba Fett from Star Wars. In fact, I just had to throw them away today because we got excited and did them really early so they already had mold on the inside. But I did post a few pictures to my blog yesterday from when we had just finished. The templates are easier than you would thing they are. The most annoying part to me is taping them down on a round pumpkin.The taller and flatter you pumpkin is, the easier the template will be. Happy Carving!! And I hope you post some pictures if you do it!
That pumpkin looks awesome! I usually stick to the standard pumpkin face, because those stencils can get crazy hard to cut out. Love all the pins!


Following the path laid out by other states, as of January 1, 2019, companies in Hawaii will no longer be able to inquire about an applicant's salary history as a part of their hiring process and salary determination. This bill, the Equal Pay Act (SB 2351) which has been designed to help pay equality, goes into effect on the first day of the new year.
Hawaii, like California, New York and 8 other states has created this law as a way to hopefully assist in closing the wage gap that exists between men and women by banning employers from asking about a candidate's salary history. The practice of requesting this information has been used for years as a tool for setting a persons salary range for a new position, but in recent years has been identified as a key factor in pay inequality. A lower wage at a previous job can adversely affect the salary at jobs in the future. This can lead to a person continuing to have lower earnings across their lifetime.
There is always the chance that an employer may uncover what an individual was making in their prior role without even asking directly. If you are an employer in Hawaii, you better think twice before using this information. No previous salary history, whether gained through direct or indirect information can be used in determining a salary for a potential role. Employers may still engage in discussions/negotiations with candidates to understand salary expectations…they just can't ask and are advised to not go looking.
If you are an organization in Hawaii, make sure you review your interview process and documents prior to January 1, and ensure all hiring managers have a clear understanding of this new law.

Home Mobile Billboard News What Can Mobile Billboards Do For Your Business?
Stand Out From Your Competition, Engage Your Audience In State-Of-The-Art Ways And Leave An Impression They Won't Soon Forget.
There are many reasons why mobile billboards cause explosive growth for companies.
Truck/Trailer – There are the standard truck, the thin sign on an attached trailer or the digital sign on a digital scrolling billboard as far as presentation options.
All Mobile Billboards are lit with static lighting or have LED lighting effects and can run day and night, 7 days a week.
3-D/Showroom – This is a more interesting option because it is a box truck with safety glass walls. You can stage furniture/props inside or even have actors presenting scenes.
Scented – With over 600 USDA approved scents to choose from, you can create a unique aroma for your product/business that releases into the air on a timed schedule.
Sound – You can have sound effects, music or short clips play alongside your visual message. These earworms, as they are called, can be played on a timed schedule at precise intervals or by manual command control.
Viewer Tracking – This enables you to see how people are interacting with your advertising. Viewer tracking allows you to see effectiveness and adjust your campaign or target areas.
How Can A Mobile Billboard Campaign Help YOU?
A mobile billboard marketing campaign can help your business in many different ways.
Because the retention rate on mobile billboards is so high, consumers will see and be able to remember your message, product and/or company name better than all other forms of advertising. This can increase your sales and/or positive company image.
Your ad stands loud, proud and alone. You don't have to fight with competitors to be seen or heard. Since the presentation of the ad is so unique and it is by itself, there isn't the clutter of other ads to distract a potential consumer.
Because the ad goes directly to the consumer and engages with them during the course of their day, your business has the ability to interact with far more people. Instead of hoping they search the right things online or watch the right programs on the correct channels to catch a quick spot, you are putting the opportunity to see your message right in front of their face. Literally.
All of this maximizes your visibility potential and can increase your sales and growth. It is one of the cheapest options in marketing today and more effective and engaging than almost every strategy out there. Your only limit creatively is your own mind. Even then, our professional staff of seasoned marketers can help expand campaign ideas.
There is a reason why Mobile Billboards are remembered by the masses. Isn't it time to see how it can benefit YOUR business?
What Do People Say About Mobile Billboard?
We're Going To The Business Expo!
Merry Christmas From Your Friends At Mobile Billboard!
How Effective Are Mobile Billboards?
Studies have proven that Mobile Billboards are one of the most important and effective forms of advertising in today's world.
Mobile Billboards Continuously Drive Through Target Areas and Interact With the Daily Life of the Consumer.
When creating the perfect ad for your mobile billboard marketing, there are certain key factors that you should keep in mind to ensure a winning campaign.
Viewers tracking is a service that allows you to follow the reaction of viewers to the billboard with the advertising of your product or brand.
While there are many forms of advertising available today, only mobile billboard advertising makes the most sense for a cost-effective approach to marketing.
Speaking of Scented Ads, Enjoy The Aroma Of Turkey Tomorrow! Wishing You All A Very Safe and Happy Thanksgiving!

I once knew a man of means, who lost it. It wasn't sudden. I witnessed him diminish over many years.
I ran behind, so he always got to spend at least 20 minutes with my receptionists chatting. You know, the weather, rising petrol prices and the like. He liked women. He felt better by the time he got to my consulting room. Which was a relief. Even then I had to work to keep my heart un-sunk, so to speak.
He sort of slouched, a great mass of humanity. It felt bad but I had little to offer.
It wasn't so much him, as the relentlessness of his losses. He lost his business, his family, his home, and finally his mind. In the end, after many years of takeaways he was left with only his car. So he slept in it.
At that point, I did wonder about who was out there to help. It was a fleeting thought. After all, I wasn't inviting him to stay on my floor; I wasn't taking the shirt off my back. Of course, I was somewhat protected, being a doctor and all. My only obligation was during the appointments, which were frequent and onerous. Outside of that I was free to go about my business, and if he was sleeping in his car … well, whose business was that? Not mine. Some social service, I suppose.
Well soon he parked his car outside the medical centre and slept there. He started planting silverbeet along the edges of our sandpit. And he struck up a friendship with our elderly neighbour, who lent him garden tools. It was a mutually satisfactory arrangement as she was in need of friendship, but not a gardener. She didn't go so far as to invite him in. So he stayed where he was, in our parking lot.
Still, it was disconcerting. Him being there and all. Especially after hours.
Mind you, he was clean, taking advantage of the garden sprinklers on timer, and friendly. We were in a nice part of town. The other patients responded to his greetings, but seemed unsure what to make of him. He was at a disadvantage because at that time silverbeet was a somewhat unfashionable vegetable. Still, beggars can't be choosers. And we could hardly ask him to leave, park elsewhere. So we let him in to use the loo at his convenience.
Despite the conveniences he still slouched miserably and I was getting somewhat low on energy myself.
So I told him I was sorry.
Sorry about his mother, who had died when he was born. Sorry about his father, who had lived on, drunk. Sorry about the violations and the voices.
Sorry about the pain of his gout. Sorry there was nothing I could give him for it due to his allergies and dyspepsia.
And sorry about the bill. He was, after all, no longer a man of means. He said he was happy to pay. Things were looking up.
I had come across him, leaving, at the end of a long day. He was bent over a small patch of dirt between the 'doctor only' car park and the fence that hid the crushed cartons, medicinal waste and empty oxygen cylinders. He was planting a row of brussel sprouts. A great autumn crop, he said, catching my eye.
He sent me home with a bundle of silverbeet. Actually, it was rather good.
