Wow, Sorry it has been so long. I has been a bit busy around here these days! Makenzie is doing well! She got her new walker and has improved a bit every time she gets in it. We finally got a chance to do water therapy on Friday with Makenzie's PT. She did so good! She was kicking her feet and was able to move her legs on command to her therapists hands! All while Josh was busy doing front flips off of the diving board!!!
We had a family picnic on Sat. at the farm where my grandma grew up! I was hot but so much fun to see where she was born and grew up! The house is 88 years old and was really small. My grandma came from a very large family and it was so hard to imagine craming all of those kids in that little house! The last time we had a picnic there was when I was about 8! It was fun to be there with all of my family! It was also great to see and hear froom so many people that continue to pray for Princess Makenzie! Thank You All!
We are leaving for California on the 14th! I am so excited! I still have to get all of the Miracle Flight paper work together tonight so that we get it faxed in time for them to find us a flight! Thank You Miracle Flights for makeing all of these trips possible! With out this organization we would be much more limited in where we could go to get treatment for Makenzie! THANK YOU!!!
I have also been researching a organization called NACD. They deal with Child Development. I ordered a CD lecture and it was GREAT! There was so much information and all 6 hours were packed with all kinds of very important suff! NACD evaluates kids from coma to briliant and then gives parents a protocal on how to simulate the child at their level to help the brain reconnect and reorganize! I am in the process of filling out the paperwork to have an initial phone eval befor going to AZ (AGAIN!!!) in person! I am so excited to have all of this new information and another great treatment option!!! How to stimulate Makenzie has been a stuggle for me and some very pointed direction will be GREAT!!!
Well I guess I will have to cut this short tonight! Makenzie is very restless and I think to get her settled I will have to be off to bed! I guess a little extra sleep can't hurt! Keep praying!! Prayer Works!
Kaleb has been asking for a picture of him and Makenzie for this blog. So here it is! She is looking a bit chubby! Yeah!!!! Not much happened this weekend. We went to the pool a few times, played in her new walker, went to the first service in out new church building, went out to lunch with some friends we haven't seen in a long time, and played out side in the water. Makenzie thought it was grat to be sprayed with the hose! Her feeding tube seems to be feeling a bit better! Please keep praying that this would continue to heal quickly as it is causing her a lot of pain. Well that is all for tonight. Keep praying for Miss Makenzie!
It only took them about 3 weeks and now it is here and ours to keep! It is amazing how much Makenzie has improvered in thoughs few short weeks! She did great with taking steps and bearing weight! I am so proud of her! Her button is a bit red and seems to be causeing her some pain! Please pray that this would get better fast! We had a crazy week this week but I don't see much on the calender for next week but normal therapy and going to the pool! Keep praying for Makenzie and her recovery! Got to get some sleep! Cranky little girls are tiring!
We got the final details taken care of for our trip to California! We are going to pick up Makenzie's Neuro Suit! Two of Makenzie's therapists are going to come with us to be trained with me on how to use it so that we can do suit therapy at home instead of spending thousands of dollars and three weeks two-three time a year to go to a clinic! I am so excited! We are going Aug 14-17th! I can't wait to get Makenzie bak into the suit!
I also taked to the intake person for the Feeding Clinic in VA today! She will be calling tomorrow to set up and eval in Sept! We will be traveling VA for this as well. Hopefully they will accept her into their program and we can do some very intense feeding therapy next May! The program is 8-10 weeks long so I am hoping to find a month to month apartment to rent and have my boys come out the last 4 weeks! This clinic has produce very good results in tube fed kids and has come with wonderful reccomendations!
I scheduled another Swallow study in Aug. as well so that we can have an updated one to bring to our evaluation. Please pray that she does well for this! Last time she did ok. They didn't get many swallows as they had her in a weird chair, between 2 peices of x-ray equipment, with like 8 people standing around her...... very intemidating! What she did swallow there were no signs of asperation or pooling! This time we hope for more swallows with the same results!
Makenzie had a great day in therapy. We got her to continue to bear weight into both arms and she sat well today. She is also doing really well getting her hand above her head to roll and putiing her head up with weight into her shoulders on her stomach! She is doing so well!!! Please keep praying! God is Good and Prayer works!!! Believe!
Here are a few pictures of Makenzie sitting! The really special thing about these pictures is that she had both her right and LEFT hand down and bearing weight! Yeah God!!!
HBOT is still going well. It seems to mske her really tired though! We have also had some good results with changing her feeding schedule around. I have been feeding her a couple time a day and she has been eating 1-2oz!!!! GO MAKENZIE! Our goal is 4 oz so we are bout half way there! At 4 oz we will reasses and take more tube away and try a new goal amount!! Pray that she continues to do well and improve with her oral motor and feeding skils!
Makenzie is 3!!! Last year we were in Pheonix for her birthday. Last year I let Makenzie taste a small lick of frosting as she had just started to be able to move food to the back of her mouth. This year she will get to eat cake! Modified a bit with some milk but none the less she can do it!!!!! Last year she was not smiling or laughing. This year she will be with all of her friends and family with a big smile on her face! Last year she could have cared less about toys and this year I went to pick out presents that I knew she would LOVE! She still won't be able to blow out her candles but she will look at them in wonder! Last year she wouldn't have even noticed the candles! I ordered her a Tinkerbell Cake because she loved the Peter Pan Ride at Disney World! I can't wait to see what she thinks of a big bunch of balloons! As much as I wish things were different I can't but be so thankful that I get to celebrate another year with my princess! Thank You Jesus! To God be ALL the Glory!
Makenzie has been doing great in therapy! She has continued to push herself up with her arms on her stomach ans is still doing well with sitting. We had a new OT start on Weds. She is great and I think she is going to be GREAT with Makenzie! We went to our feeding eval and I was very dissapointed, to say the least! They were very unhelpful and told me nothing that I didn't already know! Their grand conclusion was that Makenzie needs feeding therapy! Gezz really! So I went to her GI and we talked about her feeding schedule. We are going to cut 2 hous off of her feeds per day and he wants me to try and feed her 4 oz oraly. When we get to that new goal we will begin to add more oral and cut more tube feeds untill we can slowly widdle it down to her only eating through her mouth! Boy that will be a day for another party!!!! I am so greatful that we have such a wonderful GI doctor!
Well of to make formula and get to bed! Thanks for you thoughts and prayers!
We finally got the chamber running!!!! We got Makenzie in there with no problems!!!! We have been trying for about a week and she was freaking out because of the noise. Today there were no tears! It was just HOT! She is such a trooper!
We were going to go see fireworks tonight but right befor we left her j tube button broke! I spoke with 3 doctors and they all said that there was nothing they could do untill tomorrow! Oh well! We had acid everywhere and they said it would be ok but it is such a mess! Your body produces it all of the time so it would have just kept leaking untill we had it fixed...... tomorrow! So I took things into my own hands and pluged it with PLAYDOUGH! No more leaking!!!! He He I am sure they will look at me funny tomorrow at the doctors but at least we both won't be covered in acid!!!! I tried feeding her through the g (stomach) port but she seemed to be a bit uncomfortable so I stoped but she hasn't thown up yet so that is plus!
Well that is all I have for tonight! The adventures of Makenzie always have me on my toes!!! It is amazing what you can come up with in a pinch!!! Keep Praying!
Just a quick post! Makenzie is still up because we had a great private fireworks show at the neighbors house! Makenzie loved it! The louder is got the more she laughed! It was so cute! She even got to hold a sparkler!
We went to the pool for a while and I put her in a float. She did great holding her head up and a couple of times she put her face in the water and she did great! She picked her head up and either spit the water of swallowed it! I am very careful in the pool with her face and the water but it is the pool! She loves to be splashed and throwen up into the air to land in the water! She loves the pool!
On tues we have an appointment with the Childrens Feeding Clinic to get started with the weaning from the j tube and back onto bolus feeds so that we can start an intenssive feeding program! Hopfully she won't be to intimidated by being in a new enviornment and will show them her stuff! She is now 24lbs 11oz! and looking GREAT!! Our goal was 24lbs so I am thrilled that we have surpassed that by almost a pound!!! Go Makenzie and Thank You Jesus!!! Please pray for this appointment!!!
Makenzie is also doing very well and continues t sit well! She is also putting a lot of weight into both of her arms!! This is so great!!!
Well I better get my princess to bed!!! Keep praying!

Mount Vernon 11th Novr 1785.
I pray you to accept my thanks for your favor of the second, & for the present which it announced—than which nothing could be more acceptable, as I am desireous of getting into a stock of Deer with as much expedition as the nature of the case will admit. But if the Doe you offer me is not inconvenient to yourself; I shou'd be glad if she could remain at Chatham until a small paddock which I intend to enclose this Winter for the reception of these animals, is railed in—when I will fall upon some method, least liable to accidents, to bring her up.
I congratulate you on your success on the Falmouth turf. Our old acquaintance Saml Gallaway retired from the Alexa races, & from the pomps & vanities of this World almost in the same instant—having taken his departure for the impervious shades of death as soon as he got home.1 My respectful compliments, in which Mrs Washington [joins], are offered to Mrs Fitzhugh. I am Dr Sir &c.
1. Samuel Galloway, a Quaker merchant of Tulip Hill south of Annapolis, a great lover of horseflesh, had been an occasional visitor at Mount Vernon before the Revolution.

Add "I agree to rules" checkbox
Tabata Vossen - August 22, 2022 15:00
Would you like to require that participants read and agree to your contest rules before they are allowed to submit a form? Supposedly, you would have a form in your campaign that at the bottom asks participants to "accept the rules" or something similar. In this tutorial, we'll share two easy ways to create a required agreement checkbox.
To get started, you'll need to either create a new opt-in or edit an existing opt-in from the Opt-ins section.
Since we want to be sure all participants agree to these rules before the form can be submitted, we'll also check the Required option. That way, if the participant doesn't check the box, the form will not be submitted and the participant won't be able to continue.
The two methods use a pop-up to inform participants of your contest rules and a checkbox that they must check to show agreement. The difference is that the first option will display a pop-up when clicking on a tooltip (question mark next to the text), while the second option will display a pop-up when clicking on a link.
Where to add "I agree" checkboxes
Add an "I agree" checkbox with a tooltip
Here is an example of how to do this:
Clicking on the checkbox or the label text will change the checkbox state.
Once your opt-in is set up, one easy way to implement the "I agree" or "I accept" checkbox is through the "Info box", which you can set up in the Opt-ins. You can add your rules text to the Text area.
The pop-up would look like this:
However, this method isn't the most practical to implement in cases where you are updating your policy, terms or rules with every campaign. Alternatively, if you want to show participants a set of rules that are specific to each campaign so they can read and accept it, you should use the second method below.
Add an "I agree" checkbox with a text link
Now that you've got your opt-in ready to go, you need a Rules document to link to. Either save and exit the opt-in or open a new tab to go to your campaign. Click on Settings > Rules to upload or write your contest rules:
Once this is done, the rules will be placed into a special button on the top right of your campaign.
From there, you'll need to return to your opt-in.
To create a link to this Rules document, you'll need to modify your opt-in text to include some basic code using the Source mode of the editor. For our example, we will only link the words "contest rules":

I agree to the contest rules

It is also possible to hide the "Rules" button on the top right and just show the pop-up on click. Here's some sample CSS code to get you started:
#s_reglement {
Add an "I agree" checkbox on the welcome screen
Generally, the earlier in the relationship between your campaign and your participants that you present an "I agree" checkbox, the better. This ensures that from the very beginning, you'll have the agreement that you need. To do this, you'll need to open your Rules and check the box labelled "Request a read confirmation on the welcome screen".
However, sometimes people can be reluctant to accept on the welcome screen (or you don't want a welcome screen), so you can use one of the methods above instead.
That's it! We hope this tutorial helped you to require participants to agree to your contest rules before submitting a form.
Next, would you like to verify a participant's age in a campaign? Be sure to check out our tutorial on doing this for all the details.
Do you have any questions? Let us know.

Microscopic pedestrian simulation model combined with a tactical model for route choice behaviour
Miho Asano, Takamasa Iryo, Masao Kuwahara
This study proposes a microscopic pedestrian simulation model for evaluating pedestrian flow. Recently, several pedestrian models have been proposed to evaluate pedestrian flow in crowded situations for the purpose of designing facilities. However, current pedestrian simulation models do not explain the negotiation process of collision avoidance between pedestrians, which can be important for representing pedestrian behaviour in congested situations. This study builds a microscopic model of pedestrian behaviour using a two-player game and assuming that pedestrians anticipate movements of other pedestrians so as to avoid colliding with them. A macroscopic tactical model is also proposed to determine a macroscopic path to a given destination. The results of the simulation model are compared with experimental data and observed data in a railway station. Several characteristics of pedestrian flows such as traffic volume and travel time in multidirectional flows, temporal-spatial collision avoidance behaviour and density distribution in the railway station are reproduced in the simulation.

Man wanted for choking co-worker at landscaping job in Kingspoint
Rodney Johnson, 49 (Courtesy James City County Police)
James City County Police are looking for a man who allegedly strangled a co-worker while landscaping in Kingspoint.
Police have warrants for felony aggravated assault by strangulation and felony assault against 49-year-old Rodney Johnson, according to police spokeswoman Stephanie Williams.
Johnson has also been known as Rodney Dushack, Williams said. He is about 6 feet 8 inches tall and his last known address is on Mooretown Road in James City County.
Police believe Johnson was working for a landscaping company Sept. 9 in the 200 block of Southpoint Drive when a 31-year-old co-worker made a joking comment toward him, Williams said.
Johnson did not take the remark as a joke, causing the two to get into a verbal altercation.
Johnson put his hands around the victim's neck and started choking him. The victim grabbed Johnson and pushed him.
Johnson swung a stick at the man, got behind him and started choking him. The 31-year-old told police he became disoriented as he was being choked.
During the struggle, the victim also was cut by an unknown object on his chest, Williams said. The cut required stitches.
Those with information about the incident or Johnson's whereabouts should contact the James City County Police Department at 757-253-1800 or 1-888-LOCK-U-UP.

"There Were Good Chances, But It's Getting Old"
NYR 2, Atlanta 3 - SO
These were the words of Henrik Lundqvist last night after the Blueshirts lost in the skills competition (a.k.a. the shootout) to the Atlanta Thrashers last night. We've heard it time and time again from our dear once-kicked-ass coach John Tortorella, 'how the boys are playing good hockey and there were many chances and as long as they stick with the plan things will turn around and they'll begin winning games again.'
Don't be so sure of yourself Coach. Stick with the plan and we're going to continue to lose games. Let's look closer. Captain Chris Drury is invisible and non-scoring, Chris Higgins is forever trade-bait and non-performing, Ales Kotalik our sniper lost sight of the puck during the crucial shootout last night, Sean Avery has been neutered by your forceful words and benching methods, Matt Gilroy was sent north furthering your actual disbelief that the youth will prevail and learn on this team, Michal Rozsival & Wade Redden continue to horrify fans of hockey with plenty of ice-time, Vinny Prospal has lost his scoring touch, Henrik Lundqvist has no support and is slowly losing his confidence. Oh yeah...and we don't have a backup goalie.
A handful of Blueshirts are out-performing everyone else: Marian Gaborik is dynamite & healthy (knock on wood, folks), Ryan Callahan has the best work ethic on the ice, scrambling, bruising, and beating his way to the puck on every shift, Michael Del Zotto (though many missed opportunities) has a hawk's passing eye and finds the holes that make goals (and he's 19!!! -- watch the highlights from last night's game where he found Ryan Callahan on a beautiful feed), Marc Staal continues to impress but cannot control the blueline with limited shifts. Donald Brashear, strangely, is playing decent hockey and is deserving of the $1+ mill per year he is getting, minus the gooning.
So the negatives right now outweigh the positives. Not a happy place as a Rangers fan. With Gilroy, Valiquette and Parentheau all being sent up north to the minors there has been much chatter about a big move that is yet to happen -- some alleged magical trade that will revamp the team and help it find it's confidence once again. Sorry to disappoint, but things look grim RANGERS HOCKEY FANS as we cannot clear enough in the salary cap to find that impact player we so desperately need. Can't we just start over? I am certain Sather is calling his old buddies in St. Louis or Phoenix soliciting many wise-tales and great opportunities, but even his persuaded-in-the-past dear friends now want something in return -- which means a Brandon Dubinsky or a Ryan Callahan. No dice Gee-Emmy. During the off-season, Sather was publicly cheered for his dumping of the Scott Gomez contract to Montreal, which to this day I still cannot believe he did it - a Jedi in action, but I think the magic of General Manager Glen Sather is coming to an end. With The Hockey News finally declaring Sather a sham, maybe his time is near. One can only hope.
So if you're still watching the games (and God forbid reading these posts) I thought you'd get a kick out of the MSG spin on last night's game. Remember: MAKE THE NEGATIVE A POSITIVE.
New York Rangers Official Site:
STAT OF THE GAME
The Rangers outshot the Thrashers by a whopping 48-27 margin, which shows just how strong Johan Hedberg was in the net. Red-hot Hedberg truly stole both points on a night when the Rangers had a strong performance from start to finish.
Now here is the sad reality - New York recorded a season high in shots, but lost for the seventh time in eight games (1-5-2). The Rangers scored fewer than three goals for the 11th time in 13 games. We are in 11th place in the Eastern Conference (11 out of 15) with a record of 14-15-3. We are less than .500 and dropping.
No "P.R."-spin for those stats.
Maybe a back-to-back with our rival Islanders this week will fire off all cylinders and the puck will actually go in the net, as opposed to bragging about how many shots on goal we had after losing yet another friggin game.
Watch it with a grain of salt and maybe we'll all be surprised Wednesday night. Or maybe just crank out another Curb Your Enthusiasm episode to enjoy the negative. Your choice.
Once thing is for sure, it's getting awfully DARK in this room.

Teachers across the nation this week are gathering at James Madison's Montpelier inside the Robert H. Smith Center for the Constitution.
"We ask our students to be lifelong learners, and if we're not lifelong learners, then we're not uh fulfilling that on our own," said Jim Rossi; who teaches Social Studies in Maryland.
The James Madison Legacy Project allows teachers to dive into the history of U.S. government with special attention to the constitution.
Earlier this week, NBC29 had another story. This one featured a Charlottesville city councilor who could use some of the lessons taught at Montpelier.
"The Constitution itself, in the body of the Constitution, talks about the unalienable rights to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. Gun violence in this country has denied thousands and thousands of people those basic rights," said Kristin Szakos, Charlottesville city councilor.
Imagine this: in the City of Charlottesville, in the shadow of Thomas Jefferson's Monticello, an elected government official talks about how the words "life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness" are found "in the body of the Constitution."
As my freshman English teacher at MUHS, Father Richard Forrey, S.J., would have berated an errant student: "Sorry! ZERO!"
The Constitution does not refer -- anywhere, in the body of the original document or in the amendments added since 1791 -- to "unalienable rights" or to "life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness."
Those words appear in the Declaration of Independence, written by Charlottesville's own Thomas Jefferson.
For her ignorance of the U.S. Constitution and the Declaration of Independence, City Councilor Kristin Szakos needs to take a remedial course in American Government. And she ought to apologize to the community for so embarrassingly displaying her ignorance on local television and internationally on the Internet.
I mean, we'd expect something like this from Donald Trump -- but from an elected official who lives and works in Charlottesville?
Sometimes I think the voters get exactly what they deserve.


Conveniently picked up by iFans AppleInsider, Apple has ever-so-quietly filed a patent which shows a triumphant return for Touch ID to iPhones and it is - quite literally - bigger than anything you have seen before.
With the snappy name of 'Acoustic pulse coding for imaging of input devices', Apple shows-off an in-display Touch ID fingerprint reader which can operate when a fingerprint touches anywhere on the screen. Furthermore, it's built on the real-world, cutting edge technology of rivals.
If this sounds familiar, it's because this is very similar to Qualcomm's Ultrasonic technology which creates 3D maps of fingerprints using acoustic vibrations from the display. This is both faster and more secure than any previous fingerprint technology, and it will debut in Samsung's Galaxy S10 this month.
That said, Samsung's implementation (and all others to this point) makes users place a finger on a specific area of the screen. This is a problem because screens lack the physical indentation of traditional fingerprint readers, which makes finger placement less intuitive.
Needless to say, Apple will require some advanced algorithms to ignore accidental touches on these screens or cases of pocket dialling around the world will increase exponentially. That said, the real carrot is dual biometrics.
Using fingerprint and facial recognition in conjunction would deliver military-grade security to iPhones. And with Apple already detailing plans to promote iPhones as potential passport and ID document replacements, such verification options would be essential to achieving this aim.
Meanwhile, in everyday situations, the option to use either best-of-class face or fingerprint recognition would provide iPhone owners with greater flexibility than they have ever had before. It's a true win-win scenario.
Moreover, while no upgrade is ever 100% until Apple announces it on stage, this is a boost the company needs. Compared to rivals, 2019 iPhones are missing 5G and sport conservative next-generation designs so they need a way to reinvigorate sales and customer interest.

Q: Import a List of Pre-existing Data into Terraform I have created an API client library and Terraform provider for Okta's Management API. I am using Okta's Trusted Origin Management API within the Terraform provider to automate the provisioning of Trusted Origins in Okta.
I need help understanding how to import pre-existing Trusted Origins into the Terraform state file for a list of pre-existing Trusted Origins.

Say that Okta Trusted Origins are represented by the okta_trusted_origin Terraform resource and I have a list of URLs called host_urls.
variable "host_urls" {
    description = "All the URLs for the Trusted Origin hosts"
    type = "list"
    default = [
        "http://foo.com",
        "http://bar.com",
        "http://example.com"
    ]
}

resource "okta_trusted_origin" "host-urls" {
    count = "${length(var.host_urls)}"
    name = "${element(var.host_urls, count.index)}"
    origin = "${element(var.host_Urls, count.index)}"
    scopes = ["CORS", "REDIRECT"]
}

The "meta-parameter" count above defines how many copies of the resource to create. Each resource is created based on the Trusted Origins defined in the host_urls variable. In this case three Terraform resources will be created: host-urls[0], host-urls[1], and host-urls[2].
The problem I have is with the resource name under these conditions. Terraform imports resources based on the resource name, and this makes it difficult if the resource is identified by an ID in the data source where it pre-exists. Each Trusted Origin is uniquely identified in Okta by it's name, origin or ID, but Okta's API only allows GET operations based on ID. In other words, there is no way to get a Trusted Origin by the name or origin fields.

Here's what I'd like to do:
terraform import okta_trusted_origin.<origin-url>

where <origin-url> is a URL of a pre-existing Trusted Origin in Okta.

What is the best way to achieve what I am trying to do? Terraform's documentation is not leading me down any promising paths. Your help would be much appreciated!

Q: Is there any way to support custom Bangla font in JsPdf? I integrated JsPDF in one of my project but it's not showing bangla font properly.
I tried with various ways like font encoding and addToVFS and using @font-face in stylesheet
Sample code to support custom font.
var doc = new jsPDF();

doc.addFont('SiyamRupali.ttf', 'custom', 'normal');

doc.setFont('custom');
doc.text(15, 15, 'মাইক্রোসফট আফিস ট্রেনিং গাইড');

I got this result "þÿ ® ¾ ‡ • Í ° Ë ¸ « Ÿ † « ¿ ¸ Ÿ Í ° Ç ¨ ¿ ' — ¾ ‡ ¡" instead of "মাইক্রোসফট আফিস ট্রেনিং গাইড"

A: Firstly you need to convert your font from enter link description here
then,
change the SolaimanLipi-normal.js file->
from,
import { jsPDF } from "jspdf"

to
import jsPDF from "jspdf"

then,
import 'assets/fonts/SolaimanLipi-normal.js';
import jsPDF from 'jspdf';

const doc = new jsPDF();

doc.setFont('SolaimanLipi'); // set custom font (SolaimanLipi)
doc.setFontSize(10); // set font size 10
doc.text('মাইক্রোসফট আফিস ট্রেনিং গাইড', x, y) // and you can write your text with starting co-ordinator

you can check your font is added or not
console.log('fonts', doc.getFontList());


The WHO definition of health is unrealistic (nobody, not even the most devout wellite, enjoys "complete physical, mental and social well-being, " at least not every day). Most think of health in far less exalted ways. Most think they are well if they are not sick. This is pathetic. It equates with not needing immediate medical attention. For the vast majority, this is a "good enough" view of health. Thinking that way is a self-fulfilling prophesy. It means that not healthy is the best you can hope for. This is the static definition of health and it must be reformed and at least accompanied by another, comparison perspective for those Americans willing to do their part. That would be earned health.

Vertigo Doesn't Have To Rule Your Life – Here's How To Cope
Alyssa Ball
Can't stop the room from spinning? You may be suffering from a common form of vertigo, known as BBPV. Here's how to cope.
What is vertigo?
Do you have vertigo? This is how doctors break down dizziness into three subcategories:
• presyncope – feeling faint or light headed
• disequilibrium – feeling off-balance
• and the more familiar vertigo, defined as the sensation of motion where none actually exists.
Different people experience vertigo in different ways; for some the world might be spiralling around them and others might be spiralling around the world.
Usually, vertigo sufferers can blame their ears, where the balance organs are located, for the unsettling sensations.
Approximately 40 percent of us will suffer from dizziness at some point, and within that group, as many as 42 percent will have benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV), which is the most common cause of ear-related spinning sensations. (Is your dizziness caused by drinking alcohol? Here's what to do.)
"The median duration of a single episode of BPPV is two weeks," says Dr. Matthew Bromwich, an ear, nose and throat (ENT) surgeon and assistant professor of otolaryngology at the University of Ottawa. "Basically, for two weeks, every time you look up, roll over or bend down, you get a spinning sensation lasting for seconds to minutes. It's very irritating and it can be quite disabling."
What causes vertigo, specifically BBPV?
What kick-starts this cranial merry-go-round is the balance system in our inner ears. It is made up of gravity sensors (called otolithic organs) and rotation sensors (semicircular canals). (Find out what it means about your health when your ears are ringing.)
Otolithic membranes called saccule sense acceleration through tiny crystals of calcium carbonate, which are stuck to a gelatinous mass containing hair cells. These hair cells bend in different ways, sending signals to your brain that indicate your body's speed and orientation.
The semicircular canals are fluid-filled tubes with similar hair cells that sense rotation. The problem begins when those calcium crystals dislodge, sending your brain a clash of signals that tell it that you're rotating even when you're still.
For the one in 10 people over the age of 60 affected by BPPV, the calcium crystals dislodge because of age and general wear and tear on the ear.
BPPV is also quite common after a car accident or some form of head trauma – either the crystals have been shaken loose by the force of the accident, or the trauma leads to inflammation in the ear, which causes the crystals to dislodge. People with inner-ear infections have similarly inflamed ears and are also more likely to suffer from BPPV.
How to tell if you have BBPV
While Bromwich says BBPV causes no serious repercussions to your health, the spinning sensation can be annoying and debilitating. The good news is that the condition is fairly simple to resolve. So how do know if what you're feeling is vertigo?
"People can almost make their own diagnosis," says Bromwich. "There's a manoeuvre called the Dix-Hallpike, where you lay down with your head hanging over the end of your bed. That's the most stimulating position for this disease." (Yoga has a lot of benefits, but here are the top three.)
If you turn your head to the right and experience dizziness, you likely have BPPV in your right ear. If you turn to the left and start spinning around: BPPV in the left ear. Keep in mind that this manoeuvre only works if the cause of your vertigo is BPPV, so it's best to visit your doctor for an accurate diagnosis. (Don't miss these thyroid facts everyone should know.)
Treatment for BBPV
Sedatives such as Ativan or Lorazepam are commonly prescribed, because they mask the symptoms of BPPV. They don't, however, affect the course of the disease.
For people with severe vertigo, brain surgery may be required, although it's only recommended for those with highly recurrent, entirely disabling episodes.
How to deal with vertigo
For up to 95 percent of sufferers, the most effective treatment is the Epley manoeuvre, a non-pharmaceutical procedure discovered fewer than 20 years ago. In fact, because the manoeuvre is still relatively new, patients see an average of three doctors and incur average costs of $2,600 in prescriptions and missed work before they receive the proper treatment, according to a U.S. study.
"The Epley manoeuvre is a way of rolling the patient such that you get those crystals from the semicircular canal back to the saccule, where they're supposed to be," Bromwich describes.
The entire process takes a matter of minutes and is so straightforward for a doctor to administer that Bromwich designed an iPhone app – called DizzyFix – that walks physicians through the manoeuvre.
"It's exactly like that game with a maze and a ball in it, only instead of a maze, it's a floor plan of your inner ear," he explains. "The iPhone is gravity sensitive, so by placing the phone on the patient's head, you get immediate feedback as to whether you're doing the manoeuvre right."
As recurrence rates for BPPV hover around 60 percent, Bromwich also developed a device that Health Canada has approved for home use (also called DizzyFix) that patients who suffer from the condition can purchase help them to complete the Epley manoeuvre independently.

See the LyricsLouis Tomlinson Releases New Song About His Mom's Death and It's Heartbreaking
By J-14 Staff
You might want to grab some tissues before listening to Louis Tomlinson's new single. The song, "Two Of Us" dropped on Thursday, March 7, and the lyrics are seriously heartbreaking. It turns out, the gorgeous power ballad is all about his mom, Johannah Deakin, who unfortunately died from leukemia in 2016.
"It's been a minute since I called you / Just to hear the answerphone / Yeah, I know that you won't get this / But I'll leave a message so I'm not alone / This morning I woke up still dreaming / With memories playing through my head / You'll never know how much I miss you / The day that they took you, I wish it was me instead," the One Direction heartthrob sings. "But you once told me, 'Don't give up / You can do it day by day' / And diamonds, they don't turn to dust or fade away."
Ugh, we may or may not be crying.
"So I will keep you, day and night, here until the day I die / I'll be living one life for the two of us / I will be the best of me, always keep you next to me," the song continues. "Even when I'm on my own, I know I won't be alone / Tattooed on my heart are the words of your favorite song / I know you'll be looking down, swear I'm gonna make you proud / I'll be living one life for the two of us."
"I promised you I'd do this / So all of this is all for you / Oh, I swear to God you're living / Through everything I'll ever do," Louis belts out in the emotional song.
But as heartbreaking as the lyrics are, Louis doesn't want fans to feel sad while listening to it.
"I don't want people to get caught up in the sadness of it," he told BBC's Newsbeat. "The song should be hopeful."
The "Back To You" singer explained to the radio station that writing the song actually helped him deal with his grief.
"It was something I needed to get off my chest. I used to lean on my mum for a lot of things — anytime I needed advice on something she would be the first call I made," he explained. "I'm not at the stage in my grief where I'm going to open the first verse and burst into tears. There is a lot of fight in life and I just get on with it. I'm quite a positive person but there's no two ways about it — it's sad what happened to me."
And the 27-year-old hopes that releasing this song will help others that are going through something similar.
"I just feel like, musically, I almost needed to get this song off my chest," he explained to House Of Solo magazine last week. "People say writing is a part of therapy. In a way, I feel like I'd been avoiding writing this song because I knew I only had one chance to get it right. I don't mean to be too soppy but if 'Two Of Us' can help just one other person who's going through the tough time I went through, that would make me really happy."
We are seriously so proud of Louis.

Record revenue of $3.74 billion up 33% year over year
Record EPS of $0.85 up 85% year over year, and non-GAAP EPS of $0.86 up 72% year over year
Expects continued revenue and EPS growth in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2017
SANTA CLARA, Calif., Aug. 17, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Applied Materials, Inc. (NASDAQ:AMAT), which celebrates its fiftieth corporate anniversary on November 10, today reported record results in its third quarter ended July 30, 2017.
Compared to the same period last year, the company grew net sales by 33 percent to $3.74 billion; increased gross margin by 3.1 points to 45.4 percent; grew operating margin by 6.2 points to 27.3 percent; and increased earnings per share (EPS) by 85 percent to $0.85. On a non-GAAP adjusted basis, the company increased gross margin by 2.9 points to 46.6 percent, grew operating margin by 5.9 points to 28.7 percent, and increased EPS by 72 percent to $0.86.
The company generated a record $1.37 billion in cash from operations, which represented 36 percent of revenue, and returned $482 million to shareholders through stock repurchases and cash dividends.
"With revenue and profits at all-time highs, Applied has tremendous momentum and a very positive outlook for the future," said Gary Dickerson, president and CEO. "Our markets are growing with a broader set of demand drivers, and the breadth of Applied's technology enables us to play a larger and more valuable role advancing the innovation roadmap in semiconductor and display."

A reconciliation of the GAAP and non-GAAP adjusted results is provided in the financial tables included in this release. See also "Use of Non-GAAP Adjusted Financial Measures" section.
In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2017, Applied expects net sales to be in the range of $3.85 billion to $4.0 billion; the midpoint of the range would be an increase of approximately 19 percent, year over year. Non-GAAP adjusted diluted EPS is expected to be in the range of $0.86 to $0.94; the midpoint of the range would be an increase of approximately 36 percent, year over year.
This outlook for non-GAAP adjusted diluted EPS excludes known charges related to completed acquisitions of $0.04 per share, but does not reflect any items that are unknown at this time, such as any additional charges related to acquisitions or other non-operational or unusual items, as well as other tax related items, which we are not able to predict without unreasonable efforts due to their inherent uncertainty.

Use of Non-GAAP Adjusted Financial Measures
Applied provides investors with certain non-GAAP adjusted financial measures, which are adjusted to exclude the impact of certain costs, expenses, gains and losses, including certain items related to mergers and acquisitions; restructuring charges and any associated adjustments; impairments of assets, or investments; gain or loss on sale of strategic investments; income tax items and certain other discrete adjustments. Reconciliations of these non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP are provided in the financial tables included in this release.
Management uses these non-GAAP adjusted financial measures to evaluate the company's operating and financial performance and for planning purposes, and as performance measures in its executive compensation program. Applied believes these measures enhance an overall understanding of our performance and investors' ability to review the company's business from the same perspective as the company's management, and facilitate comparisons of this period's results with prior periods on a consistent basis by excluding items that we do not believe are indicative of our ongoing operating performance. There are limitations in using non-GAAP financial measures because the non-GAAP financial measures are not prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, may be different from non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies, and may exclude certain items that may have a material impact upon our reported financial results. The presentation of this additional information is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the directly comparable financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.
Webcast Information
Applied Materials will discuss these results during an earnings call that begins at 1:30 p.m. Pacific Time today. A live webcast will be available at www.appliedmaterials.com. A replay will be available on the website beginning at 5:00 p.m. Pacific Time today.

The first version is a female who appears in the limited series Ultimate Nightmare. Unfortunately, it was cancelled abruptly two months before it was to be released. How about Vision 2015 book goals for fitness and personal growth and development…what do you want more of in your life These are a great way to get a quick overview of what is covered in each separate poster session. The Vision advises his teammates that he is no longer in control of his body, and then expels several spheres that form into five Ultrons. Captain America talks to the Vision afterward, telling him he needs to move forward.
They don't even feel like flesh - one of their neighbors states that their hand felt like a "sandwich bag. The Vision was trained in hand-to-hand combat by Captain Americais an expert in the combat use of his superhuman powers, and is a highly skilled tactician and strategist. So, your Vision Book essentially is a focus tool- and whatever we focus on expands. It will rain tomorrow.

The Vision Vision 2015 book his teammates that he is no longer in control of his body, and then expels several spheres that form into five Ultrons. At this university, he is working for the EAVISE research group, which focuses on combining computer vision and artificial intelligence.
They will die in the flames. He also focuses on putting as Vision 2015 book of his research as possible back into the framework to further support the open source spirit. Superforecasters are drawn exclusively from Vision 2015 book ranks of the foxes.
This causes a series of catastrophic events that includes the Vision crashing an Avengers Quinjet into Avengers Mansion. More interestingly, it shows that some people are much Vision 2015 book at it Vision 2015 book others.
This was part of his plan to nurture a relationship for the Scarlet Witch that would prevent her from having any children, as Vision 2015 book power level meant that any offspring she might have could threaten the cosmic beings of the Marvel Universe.
Stepford Smiler : The entire Vision family but Virginia especially; it takes all of one issue for her to display behavior typical of the "Empty" variant.
What do you want more of in your life? The master tool of the book is called the Horizon Storyline and it fits inside of the Vision Frame—more on that to come.
Unfortunately, when Vin later dies, his death causes Vision to go insane and turn against the Avengers. The most famous forecasters in the world are newspaper columnists and television pundits. You might want to include a picture of yourself in your book- if so, be sure to choose one that was taken in a happy moment- one that represents you in a joyful state of being.
There is no pretense of humanity when the Visions are introduced in issue one. Experiencing hate crimes. Proctor would wind up switching the bodies of both Visions and have his version infiltrate the Avengers as his mole.
You will learn so much about them and yourself in the process. Virginia proceeds to drink water with corrosive properties from a Zenn-Lavian water vase they have in their home, and asks Vision to sit with her until the water kills her.
George and Martha's dog Zeke digs up Grim Reaper's remains in the synthezoid's backyard, forcing Vision to lie to protect his family. Disappeared Dad : Leaving Wanda and ignoring the kids he already has with her for an entirely new family kinda qualifies Vision for this trope.
Finally, note that all of these materials will be distributed on thumb drives at the main conference. This, along with damage to the Vision's synthetic skin when he was dismantled, results in the synthezoid's resurrection as a colorless and emotionless artificial human.
This is a book unlike any other. Self-Fulfilling Prophecy : The Avengers send Victor Mancha to keep an eye on the Vision, as Agatha has foretold them that Vision will go berserk; unfortunately, Victor going to keep an eye on Vision is what will cause Vision to go berserk after Victor accidentally kills Vin.
Foregone Conclusion : Since the book is narrated by some omniscient third person, they often interject things that will happen in the future. You are literally shifting yourself and your energy to be a match for what you want to attract… See the future you desire, imagine how good it will feel and believe it is possible!
Issue 9 reveals that Victor has a severe vibranium addiction, and he accidentally kills Vin after getting high. He later sent her the video and called several times until she gave in and agreed to arrange a meeting. You are the author and this is your book…fill it with joy and possibilities.
Magneto uses his powers to subdue the Vision but spares him, saying he believes Wanda still cares for the Vision and that Magneto does not want to hurt her more. In addition, Vision subtly references the fact that he's blackmailing Nova.A reminder: the deadline for camera-ready submission and extended abstract submission is April 10, at pm Pacific Time.

How Human Reproduction Works
By: Craig Freudenrich, Ph.D. & Molly Edmonds | Updated: Feb 16, 2021
Sperm on the hunt for an egg

Fertilization is the union of sperm and egg and the fusion of the chromosomes necessary for the formation of an embryo. Though some people who find themselves pregnant may think that the process is all too easy, it's actually a remarkable feat for a sperm to fertilize the egg, as the odds are stacked against it.
The average ejaculation contains about 150 million sperm, but the majority of them will prove unfit for travel; researchers have found that about 85 percent of sperm have an abnormality that will prevent it from reaching and fertilizing the egg [source: Angier]. The vagina and cervix do their part to encourage the sperm, emitting chemical signals that show the path for the seminal swimmers.
It's a race against time, however: The journey to fertilization must be completed within 12 to 48 hours, before the sperm die. And timing is crucial on the other end, as well. For fertilization to take place, sperm must be present either a couple of days prior to or on the day of ovulation.
Sperm must first cross the barrier of the cervix, which will be thin and watery if the woman has just ovulated. Once the sperm have traversed the cervical mucus, they travel up the moist lining of the uterus into the Fallopian tubes. Since only one of the Fallopian tubes contains an egg, many sperm travel in the wrong direction. Fewer than 1,000 sperm out of the millions in the semen reach the Fallopian tubes, and only a few dozen actually reach the membrane of the egg.

Even though I am qualified for the position, I must admit I'm a bit jittery when thinking about the interview.
I began to prep mentally today, telling myself there's no reason to be worried; just show up, present my best self to the panel, and remain calm and collected. What's the worst that could happen?
FLASHBACK to the year 2000.
I was working as an independent consultant for a major multinational company. I was seated in a remote conference room in Canada with two of my colleagues (I'll call them Stacy and Barb), presenting our project findings to a panel of experts via tele-con. Each 'expert' was dialing in from a different location, scattered throughout the US.
The outcomes of the project would determine Stacy's, Barb's and my ability to achieve a much sought-after professional qualification. We were nervous. Voices were hushed.
The premise was that panelists would keep their polycom unit on mute, each panelist activating his/her individual unit only when he/she was personally addressing a question to my two colleagues and me. That polycom would then be muted, and the next panelist would activate his/her unit and proceed in the same way.
Distance introductions made, all panelists save one mute their units. The first panelist begins the question period, we answer in turn, and the panelist mutes his unit (or so we assume).
Cue to second panelist ... but we can hear the rustling of what sounds like a brown paper lunch bag being opened. We ask the 2nd panelist if the interference is coming from her end, but she indicates it isn't and the noise continues. On our end, we realize that the first panelist must have mistakenly turned off the volume instead of muted it on ours. I don't know if he ever turned the volume back up on his end, but I do know that he never muted his unit.
So halfway through the second set of questions, as 'Barb' is leaning into the mike, the first panelist lets loose a HUGE ripper. I swear the polycom shakes. 'Stacy' and I look at each other wide-eyed. We stifle our laughter. This is serious business. 'Barb', the ultimate professional, carries on. We keep it together. We forge on.
'Stacy' then begins explaining her fishbone diagram. As she asks all panelists to focus on the 'tail end' of the diagram, she pauses for effect, and at that very moment a few distinct ~~~~~~~Ffffffrrrrppppppp fffrrrrpppp ffrrpp ffffrrrrrrrpppppps~~~~~! reverberate over the polycom unit. It's too much.
We three realize that not only are WE hearing the flatulence, but the other panelists must be hearing it too and thinking it is coming from one of us. The 1st panelist is obviously oblivious. We are in hysterics, fighting to silence our guffaws, tears streaming down our face, 'Stacy' struggling to breathe and keep it together. Pinching her inner arm and silently pounding her fist on her leg in an effort to silence her laughter with pain. We are highly unsuccessful. The panel must think we are insane, immature, or a combination of both. We are just like 12-year-old boys, unable to keep it together in the face of bodily functions.
I look back on that day and still laugh. One of my worst professional moments, but one of the most memorable. In the end, we all received our qualification, so I guess the project was pretty darned good. But really not an experience I'd hope to see repeated.
I really hope no one farts during this interview.
I won't kid myself; I may be middle-aged, but there is still a 12-year-old child hiding in me.
Stopped in Germany to get a pic of the 'fart' sign. Yeah, I'm that mature.
