LS9 upgrades Florida demonstration facility
admin 15th May 2012
LS9, a developer of renewable and sustainable products, has upgraded its demonstration facility in Okeechobee in Florida, US.
Set to open on 12 June 2012, the facility will initially be used to enhance the company's production capability to manufacture biodiesel and renewable chemical products and create large samples for testing and product qualification by key partners and prospective customers. The facility will also be used to test and optimise new process conditions.
"Ed Dineen, LS9 president and CEO, said the company appreciates the support of a grant provided by the Florida Opportunity Fund."
The plant is equipped with variable speed drivers and advanced computer control technologies to reduce energy consumption.
The company said it envisions the plant as a long-term demonstration facility for all current and future products, with biodiesel being the first product at the facility. Production of renewable fuels and chemicals is expected to start in early third quarter 2012.
Ed Dineen, LS9 president and CEO, said the company appreciates the support of a $4.5m grant provided by the Florida Opportunity Fund for the project.
"We are honoured to have the support of Congressman Rooney for our Grand Opening event and believe this facility can be a magnet for attracting other advanced agricultural and bio-product technologies to the state," Dineen added.
"Our Florida location is ideal as it allows for prime access to the feedstocks required to produce our renewable products."

More than a Woman's Kingdom: The Mosuo People
February 28, 2022 Friendly Borders Staff
Beijing – Numerous indigenous groups around the globe have rich and colorful ethnic histories, cultures, and societies. Most of these traditional communities, however, are patriarchal; that is, dominated and lead by men. Few indigenous groups pique researchers' collective interest as those who thrive in a matriarchal society. One such indigenous group is the Mosuo people of China.
The Mosuo ethnic group is one of the few active indigenous communities that follow the maternal bloodline. The Mosuo women are the heads of the families and are thus significant in society. It is no surprise that many researchers and indigenous observers outside of the local region and the country want to learn more about the Mosuo society.
Who Are the Mosuo People?
The Mosuo people of China live along the edge of Lugu Lake in the foothills of the Himalayas. The Mosuo culture has survived through the leadership of the women in each family. The group may be an ethnic minority in the country; however, they attract various researchers and tourists due to their unique society.
The Mosuo women are responsible for passing down their cultural traditions, values, beliefs, and even wealth to the younger generations. Nonetheless, the Mosuo men also have important rules in society. They are often away from their villages, participating in horse and tea caravans. They are also responsible for house building, fishing, and slaughtering livestock.
Prominent Traditions and Practices
Perhaps the most prominent tradition of the Mosuo people is what is known as "walking marriage." It is also referred to in the Mosuo language as tisese, which literally means "to walk back and forth." The idea behind this practice is that women and men can have multiple partners and be in non-exclusive relationships. A man can visit a woman for any length of time—a night, a week, a month, a lifetime—and then go home to his own house. However, this arrangement is beyond mere physical attraction. The core of the Mosuo relationship is based on mutual respect and agency. When both the man and the woman decide that a partnership is not for life, they are both free to begin new relationships with others.
More than being a matrilineal society, the Mosuo culture also features a distinctive housing layout and unique celebrations of various life events, most notably their coming of age ceremony.
The Mosuo home has certain elements that are present even in separate communities. Such key elements are connected to the Mosuo social structure and religious beliefs. The Mosuo people build their houses with their main deities in mind. These two deities are Reggala (deity of the home) and Daggala (deity of the earth). In addition to the two, the Mosuo people also consider other deities and their ancestors that are at each corner of their houses.
The Mosuo ethnic group also has the coming of age ceremony known as Ta-gie for the boys and Li-gie for the girls. This celebration happens in the child's 13th year. The child stands in front of his or her parents and receives the set of clothing that new adults wear for the first time. Then, a chant is made before guests give their gifts to the child.
Struggles in Modern Days
As colorful and exceptional as the Mosuo culture is to the rest of the world, the Mosuo people face a new struggle. The curious gazes of the outside world to their society have also left them open to outside influences. This situation is a concern of the older Mosuo women. Their responsibilities to keep their people's traditions, culture, and beliefs are becoming more challenging as their practices slowly decline over time while the people become more familiar with the majority Han language and practices.
However, there is still hope for the continuation and survival of the Mosuo ethnic group and their culture. Various organizations conduct projects that support the preservation of ethnic communities around the globe. With their help, the Mosuo elders have a chance to entice the younger members of their community to go back and continue the legacy of their ancestors. It may take a while, but the elders are hopeful that keeping the indigenous community's ethnic tradition, culture, and beliefs alive is possible.

SPEAKER: MR. DAVID MURPHY- Retired Concord PD, retired DOJ trained Iraqi police- 5 tours of duty in Iraq.
Today, more than 400 scientists, doctors and technical experts from 75 countries launched the Scientific Declaration on Polio Eradication. The declaration's launch coincides with the 58th anniversary of the announcement of Jonas Salk's revolutionary polio vaccine.
The world is closer than ever to eradicating polio, with just 223 cases in five countries last year. To capitalize on this time-limited opportunity to end the disease, a wide range of experts have signed the declaration to emphasize the achievability of polio eradication and endorse the Eradication and Endgame Strategic Plan, a new strategy by the Global Polio Eradication Initiative (GPEI) to reach the end of polio by 2018. The scientists and experts signing the declaration include Nobel laureates, vaccine and infectious disease experts, public health school deans, pediatricians and other health authorities. For additional information about the Scientific Declaration or to view a full list of signatories, please visit the Emory Vaccine Center Website.

It's open enrollment season again for those self-employed or early retirees that receive their health insurance through the Affordable Care Act Marketplace - healthcare.gov. The deadline to enroll for coverage is December 15th, 2018, if you want your coverage to start on January 1st, 2019.
Know Your Income. When completing your application, you want to enter your expected income for 2019. If you are eligible for premium subsidies, you will be able to apply that subsidy to your monthly payments and pay a reduced rate throughout the year. Use this simple tool to see if you will be eligible for premium subsidies.
Compare Plans. It is more likely than not that you have new health insurance plans available to you in 2019. You need to carefully review the plans you are eligible for and sign up for the one that is most appropriate. Focus on premium levels, what the plans cover, deductible amounts, HSA eligibility, and which hospitals are in-network.
Avoid Automatic Enrollment. If you have been on an ACA health insurance plan in 2018, you may be automatically enrolled for 2019 if you don't take action by December 15th. Due to changes in your income and the plans that are available, you want to confirm you are signed up for the best plan.
Gather Your Information. A comprehensive list of the information you will need to apply for coverage has been provided by the Marketplace. To get through the application process quickly, reference this list beforehand. It may also save you from having to call the customer service line to answer the question you have.
Update Your Income Throughout The Year. For self-employed individuals like myself, predicting our total annual income is difficult. Considering that premium subsidies are based on this number, and not our previous year's income, updating your income is important. As 2019 progresses, if you see that your income will be lower or higher than originally predicted, update your Marketplace application as soon as possible. This will help keep the premium subsidies you receive accurate. If you take more subsidy throughout the year than you are eligible for, you will have to repay it when filing your taxes.
Ask For Help. If you have questions when applying for coverage, ask for help. The Marketplace has a search tool to find local help, or you can ask your personal financial planner.

All I Want For Xmas Is To Stop The "White Christmas" Wx Forecasts!
I'm not a Grinch, I swear. I hope everyone celebrates their holiday in whatever way they see fit.
But if I hear one more weather forecaster on local TV or radio talk about wishing for a significant snowstorm so we can have a "White Christmas" I think I may do some physical damage.
I know there's this misguided tradition that that damned Irving Berlin is responsible for, but you can't turn on a single weather prediction now that doesn't include some extreme expression of "disappointment" that a blizzard isn't coming this year.
Snow may be "pretty" but it also causes accidents on the road, eats away at your car, gives shoveling seniors often fatal heart attacks, delays or cancels flights at the busiest travel time of the year, makes it impossible to get anywhere, costs cities a fortune to clean up and ruins your clothes and shoes. And that's only a partial list.
So I'm dreaming of anything but a White Christmas. I just wish all those weather broadcasters would knock it off already. I haven't heard a single forecast in the last week without at least one mention of this. Just give me the weather and shut the F up!
O.K. so maybe I am a Grinch after all. But just on this one issue.
We now return you to your regular holiday festivities.

Q: Copy content from one workbook to another, pasting as special My current vba code copies data from one sheet of my current and creates a new workbook with the data from that sheet.
Sub copying_data()

Dim FilePath As String: FilePath = ThisWorkbook.Path & "\"
Dim FName As String

FName = FilePath & "Summary_Output_" & _
        Format(Date, "ddmmmyyyy") & ".xlsx"

ThisWorkbook.Sheets("AA_New").Copy
ActiveWindow.DisplayGridlines = False
ActiveWindow.Zoom = 110
ActiveWindow.Zoom = 120
Set NewBook = ActiveWorkbook
NewBook.SaveAs Filename:=FName

End Sub

This is currently working fine, but when it pastes the data it links it to the old sheet, instead I want it to paste the data as value but keeping the same formatting, is there any way to do this?

A: Add the file first then copy and paste special the values and formatting into the new sheet:
Sub copying_data()

    Dim FilePath As String
    FilePath = ThisWorkbook.Path & "\"

    Dim FName As String
    FName = FilePath & "Summary_Output_" & _
            Format(Date, "ddmmmyyyy") & ".xlsx"

    Dim swb As Workbook
    Set swb = ThisWorkbook

    Dim twb As Workbook
    Set twb = Workbooks.Add

    swb.Worksheets("AA_New").UsedRange.Copy

    With twb.Worksheets(1).Range("A1")
        .PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteValues
        .PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteFormats
    End With

    twb.Worksheets(1).Name = "AA_New"
    twb.SaveAs Filename:=FName
End Sub

A: Just small variations to Scott's answer which is perfectly valid.

*

*Variable names conventions

*Defining the file name in a different variable to use it in other steps

*Windows adjustments you had in your code

Public Sub copying_data()

    Dim newBook As Workbook

    Dim filePath As String
    Dim fileName As String
    Dim fileFullPath As String

    ' Build the path
    filePath = ThisWorkbook.Path & "\"

    fileName = "Summary_Output_" & _
            Format(Date, "ddmmmyyyy") & ".xlsx"

    fileFullPath = filePath & fileName

    ' Add a new workbook
    Set newBook = Workbooks.Add

    ' Save it with the path built
    newBook.SaveAs fileFullPath

    ' Copy the sheet
    ThisWorkbook.Sheets("AA_New").Copy Before:=Workbooks(fileName).Sheets(1)

    ' Copy/paste values
    newBook.Sheets("AA_New").UsedRange.Copy
    newBook.Sheets("AA_New").UsedRange.PasteSpecial xlPasteValues
    newBook.Sheets("AA_New").UsedRange.PasteSpecial xlPasteFormats

    ' Adjust the window

MAYPOLE DANCING: AN ENGLISH TRADITION
A History of Maypole Dancing
The Anglo-Saxons used prominent trees or poles as a marker for central meeting points. Over time these poles became associated particularly with landmarks for markets and fairs and were often highly decorated with paint, various emblems of local tradesmen, weather vanes, ribbons or flower garlands.
These poles also formed a focus for merrymaking and celebrations (and sometimes just general rowdiness and disorder!), including plays, dances and customs relating to welcoming the Summer. By the 14th century at least some of these were known as 'Maypoles'. Similar traditions are found across Europe including England, Germany, Northern France and the Low Countries.
In England, it seems that the earliest 'Maypole dances' consisted of people just dancing around the pole without any ribbons – probably often circle dances that were locally popular. A painting of the Ranelagh Gardens in Chelsea, London in 1759 is the first known pictorial evidence of people plaiting ribbons around a pole in the manner which is generally thought of as a Maypole Dance today. It is thought that this ribbon dance custom may have come from European (possibly Italian) dance troupes who visited London at that time, providing entertainment with similar ribbon-and-pole dances, sword-dances, music and plays.
John Ruskin, a Victorian philanthropist, introduced Maypole Dancing as we now know it to the May Day ceremonies at a training school for schoolmistresses (Whitelands in Chelsea) in late Victorian times – and so it became a popular school tradition, which was further promoted by the work of the Folk revival of the late 19th and early 20th century. Evidence suggests pipes, tambours and English bagpipes would have provided musical accompaniment to early maypole dances. By Ruskin's time, fiddle and concertina may well have been included.

Science shows T. Rex grew up into a monster faster than anyone thought
June 16, 2020, 1:59 AM ET
By Elizabeth Rayne
Credit: Universal
It should be no surprise that the dinosaur which grew into what could have be the most infamous prehistoric predator ever had a big mouth as a teen. No, really.
Tyrannosaurus Rex grew up fast in terms of how long it took to go from a slender creature with sharp teeth to an absolute bone-crusher. Paleontologist Thomas D. Carr of Carthage College has now found that T. Rex got as vicious as it was going to get around age 15, when its skull went from long and low to big and bulky, and it got a scary set of teeth. Teens were just as deadly as adults. Even though they would grow slightly more, skull size and bite force were what mattered. Scotty, the most menacing T. Rex to ever have its bones unearthed, was just barely an adult.
By the way — there was no such thing as Nanotyrannus. Anything mislabeled as such was just a juvenile T. Rex specimen that had not yet gotten its full predation equipment.
"The change from a low to a tall skull is a central part of the transition from a weak to a strong skull… in the subadult growth stage, [this] shows that the transition from shallow to tall also occurred from the juvenile to the subadult growth categories," said Carr in a study recently published in Paleontology and Evolutionary Science.
While T. Rex had 21 total growth phases, which are really sub-phases of five main categories. During its 30-year lifespan, it would go from juvenile to adolescent to subadult, adult and finally senescent (older) adult. An extreme change in the dinosaur's morphology, otherwise known as a secondary metamorphosis, is associated with sexual maturity, though its body would mature after it reached sexual maturity. It took two years for it to transform from a sleek and quick juvenile to a massive monster. While T. Rex continued to get huge into adulthood, its most drastic growth spurt occurred during secondary metamorphosis.
Subadult T. Rex around 15 years old would ambush prey instead of throw tantrums. Bite force became at least three times stronger from the juvenile to the subadult phase, and those lethal teeth grew significantly longer than they were wide. Bite force would continue to increase into adulthood Having a crushing bite was mandatory for a T. Rex if it actually wanted to eat. Morphing into a total beast meant that they could no longer run as fast as they did when they were juveniles, so they needed all the jaw strength they could get to make sure dinner wouldn't get away.
"It is predicted that the trend of increasing [tooth] bending strengths occurred throughout ontogeny, with an abrupt increase at the transition between juveniles and subadults," Carr said, also noting that the strength of the dinosaur's teeth increased marginally from the subadult to adult phase.
T. Rex's bite force was high for its body size. Maybe it was just a lizard compared to herbivorous sauropods Patagotitan or Argentinosaurus, but T. Rex was still enormous for a theropod. Extra bulk didn't hurt. By the time one of these carnivores was 17 or 18, it is thought to have weighed in at about 3 tons. The more power to crush with, the better.
Something that remains unknown is whether the king of dinosaurs was dimorphic. Because there are no skeletal features that confirm whether fossilized remains belonged to a male or a female, it is impossible to tell. Like extant crocodiles, males might have been larger than females. Not that it mattered if you were a Triceratops or other tasty menu item that had no idea it had just taken its last breath.
If there is one thing this study has revealed about T. Rex, it's that that star of Jurassic Park definitely lived up to the hype.

President Donald Trump and some of his friends are growing frustrated by the restrictions and discipline imposed by new White House Chief of Staff John Kelly, prompting some Trump loyalists to nickname him "the church lady," The Washington Post reported Thursday.
Kelly is viewed by these Trump loyalists as "strict and morally superior," according to the Post report, and they believe he is likely to clash with the president eventually.
"[Trump is] having a very hard time," one Trump friend told the Post. "He doesn't like the way the media's handling him. He doesn't like how Kelly's handling him. He's turning on people that are very close to him."
Kelly was appointed chief of staff in July, following a chaotic series of staff departures that included the ousting of Kelly's predecessor Reince Priebus, the resignation of press secretary Sean Spicer, and the firing of communications director Anthony Scaramucci.
Kelly's move from homeland security secretary to White House chief of staff was part of a push to enact order in the West Wing, where Trump was accustomed to accepting spontaneous, freewheeling meetings and phone calls. With Kelly in the White House, those phone calls are routed through Kelly first, and Trump friends must make official appointments in order to visit the Oval Office.
Yet Trump has privately begun flouting these rules, according to the Post, frequently calling advisers and confidants — including former chief strategist Steve Bannon— from his personal phone.
"Donald Trump resists being handled," Roger Stone, a friend and former adviser of Trump, told the Post. "Nobody tells him who to see, who to listen to, what to read, what he can say … Keeping him in the dark and feeding him s--- is not going to work. Donald Trump is a free spirit."
Yet in public, Trump has appeared supportive of Kelly and frequently praises him. On Friday morning, Trump said on Twitter that Kelly was "doing a great job as Chief of Staff."
"I could not be happier or more impressed - and this Administration continues to … get things done at a record clip. Many big decisions to be made over the coming days and weeks. AMERICA FIRST!" he tweeted.


Wonder if Bridger is more popular for boys or girls?
This chart illustrates how many Boys were named Bridger in the U.S. since 1880.
Records indicate that 1,535 boys in the United States have been named Bridger since 1880.
The greatest number of people were given this name in 2009, when 240 people in the U.S. were given the name Bridger. Those people are now 7 years old.
What do you think about the name Bridger?

Safe As Milk Announce On-Site Pub Details
Christian Eede , March 6th, 2017 12:26
tQ are among the hosts at the festival's on-site pub across the weekend
The first ever edition of Safe As Milk Festival gets underway at the end of next month, and with an already impressive lineup announced, organisers have now revealed what they have planned at the festival's on-site pub for the weekend.
Hosting duties for the weekend will be handled by The Wire, Bleep and your trusty team here at tQ. Plans for the weekend involve talks, screenings, special live performances and DJ sets. The full programme will be announced in the coming weeks, but tQ will host a very special edition of You Are Mark E Smith!, which encourages those in attendance to sign up for a The Fall-based round of karaoke and front a live band in the process.
Strange Attractor's Mark Pilkington will present a screening of his Mirage Men documentary too. The film looks at how the US government used mythology to cover up their own advanced technology. This will be followed by a Q&A with Pilkington. Finally, we'll host a special edition of The Quietus Hour, with guests Michael Rother and Princess Nokia joining the show, and each picking five tracks that they would like to discuss in detail.
The Wire's programme includes a live version of their Invisible Jukebox featuring Richard Dawson, where a series of unseeen tracks will be played to Dawson for him to discuss further. Jeff Mills will talk about his favourite comic books and how they have influenced his work, and author Robert Barry will discuss his book The Music Of The Future, which he describes as "a history of failures, mapping 200 years of attempts by composers, performers and critics to imagine a future for music".
Bleep will host a Polytik modular synth workshop, and have a lot more planned, including some special DJ sets, which organisers aren't quite ready to reveal yet.
This will all take place in addition to sets from Butthole Surfers, Shirley Collins, Jeff Mills & Tony Allen, The Residents, Grouper, Karen Gwyer, Princess Nokia, Moor Mother, Actress, Hieroglyphic Being, This Is Not This Heat and many more. The festival takes place at Pontins in Prestatyn from April 21-23. You can get tickets and find more information here.

3 Former U.S. Presidents Pay Tribute To Rep. John Lewis
By Amber Strong
On Thursday, Rep. John Lewis, a civil rights activist often called "the conscience of Congress", was laid to rest.
Today, civil rights activist and the often-called "conscience of Congress" John Lewis was laid to rest.
"He always talked about truth marching on, always worked for a more perfect union," said House Speaker Nancy Pelosi.
President Trump didn't attend the funeral. However, three U.S. presidents reflected on Lewis' ability to call people to action.
"A friend that would walk the stony roads he'd ask you to walk. That would brave the chastening rods he asked you to be whipped by. Always keeping his eyes on the prize . Always believing none of us would be free until all of us are equal. I just loved him," said former President Bill Clinton.
"John and I had our disagreements, of course. But in the America John Lewis fought for, and in the America I believe in, differences of opinion are inevitable elements and evidence of democracy in action," recalled former President George W. Bush.
It was President Barack Obama who reminded the crowd of the moment Lewis and hundreds of other civil rights demonstrators were met with violence crossing the Edmund Pettus Bridge in Selma, Alabama, in 1965.
"Their bones were cracked by billy clubs. Their eyes and lungs choked with tear gas, they knelt to pray which made their heads easier targets, and John was struck in the skull, and he thought he was going to die," said Obama.
He then drew parallels between that moment and what he says is happening today.
"George Wallace may be gone, but we can witness our federal government sending agents to use tear gas and batons against peaceful demonstrators. We may no longer have to guess the number of jelly beans in a jar in order to cast a ballot. But even as we sit here, there are those in power who are doing their darnedest to discourage people from voting by closing polling locations and targeting minorities," said Obama.
Before his death, Lewis penned an op-ed to be published in The New York Times the day of his funeral.
Calling for people to vote and get into "good trouble", he writes: "I heard the voice of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. on an old radio. ... He said each of us has a moral obligation to stand up."
And from the pulpit of the very church Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. called home, his daughter, Dr. Bernice King, echoed that call.
"Grant us a double portion, God, to get into good trouble, until this nation truly becomes a compassionate nation.Because as Daddy reminded us, ultimately, a great nation is a compassionate nation," said Bernice King.

China is a very big country and weather can differ drastically depending on the region in which you are traveling. Beijing seldom sees much rain and normally stays dry and breezy. Beijing, China has four seasons - Short windy spring, long hot summer, and cool pleasant autumn and long chilly winter. Harbin is located far northeast and is subject to bitterly cold winters and hosts amazing international Ice and Snow Sculpture Festivals. Shanghai sits on the South China Sea and benefits from the moderate waterfront temperatures; however, rain is a bit more common. Spring and fall are the best times to visit: the temperatures are moderate and rainfall is scarce throughout China.
Summertime in China is best described as hot and wet. China's summer is hot and humid from June til August. The city receives occasional downpours of rainfall around 40% of the yearly precipitation throughout these months. In the hot summer months it is important to keep yourself hydrated with clean bottled water! Also make sure to bring sunscreen and reapply every 3 hours so as not to burn yourself. It is best to bring layers of clothing in case it gets chilly during some parts of the tour; if it does, you can put a layer on or take a layer off depending on the weather.
The best time to visit China is during autumn! Fall temperatures throughout the country are milder without the extreme weather during winter and summer. During fall, you can capture the colors of the leaves changing, turning bright gold transforming the sidewalk into a veritable Yellow Brick Road. Traveling during the fall allows travelers to spend a great deal of time outdoor due to the mild weather. Many attractions are also less busy and crowded as they are in the summer when schools are out.
Wintertime in China is from December to February. Temperatures typically range well below zero with bitterly cold and dry air along with occasional snow. Clothing such as down jackets, thick jeans and long johns, sweaters, hats, scarves and gloves are recommended.
Springtime in China is spectacular. It's a time where you can capture the entire landscape exploding in shades of green. Expect clear skies, cool temperatures and rainfall. By the end of March you can find the green buds on the end of trees and flowers slowly starting to bloom. In April, you can expect to see a wide variety of colors and flowers exploding in full bloom. Enjoy the beauty of nature "springing" back to life.

Ever since the dawn of civilisation, men and women have been toiling hard to save money, just so that they could build or buy a house which can act as a shelter, and give them a safe and sound place to live and prosper. Of course, most of these people took years to achieve this goal, and then there were some who simply couldn't afford this 'luxury' at all. Fortunately, times have changed, and today you can fulfil your dream of moving into your own house, even when you don't have four figure income. Wondering how? Well, the Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana (Urban) or PMAY (Urban) is your answer.
Introduced in the year 2015, the PMAY was Prime Minister Narendra Modi's initiative towards offering financial assistance to the urban poor of India in a bid to help them build their own homes. As per the objectives of this scheme, the urban population will receive assistance for building as many as 200 Lakhs affordable houses, by March of 2022.
We know that you would want to know all about Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana Delhi, so as to see your lifelong dream turning into a sweet reality. It is for this reason, we are laying down the details of this incredible government scheme for housing.
Individuals with an annual household income of Rs. 3 Lakhs or less are considered to be a part of this section. In this case, the proposed house must be 30 square metre (323 square feet) or less.
Individuals with an annual household income of Rs. 3 Lakhs to Rs. 6 Lakhs are considered to be a part of this section. In this case, the proposed house must be 30 square metre (323 square feet) to 60 square metre (645 square feet).
Individuals with an annual household income of Rs. 6 Lakhs to Rs. 12 Lakhs qualify under MIG I. In this case, the proposed house must be 160 square metre (1700 square feet) or less.
Individuals with an annual household income of Rs. 12 Lakhs to Rs. 18 Lakhs qualify under MIG II. In this case, the proposed house must be 200 square metre (2150 square feet) or less.
You should have been a resident in an Urban Area, as per the 2001 census.
One family is only entitled to avail one loan under the Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana.
The scheme dictates, that a 'Family' comprises of a Husband and his Wife, along with their Unmarried Sons and Unmarried Daughters.
To qualify for the Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana Delhi, it is mandatory that no member of the family should be the owner of a pucca house, in Delhi or any other part of the nation.
Individuals qualifying under the Economically Weaker Sections (EWS) and the Lower Income Group (LIG) are entitled to an interest subsidy of 6.5%, albeit only for a loan amount of up to Rs. 6 Lakhs.
Individuals qualifying under the Middle Income Group, i.e., MIGI and MIG II are entitled to an interest subsidy of 4% and 3% respectively, wherein the loan amount must not exceed Rs. 9 Lakhs for MIG I and Rs. 12 Lakhs for MIG II.
2. A Housing Loan under PMAY can be taken for the tenure of up to 20 years.
3. The borrower is entitled to receive the subsidy payment upfront, which makes this scheme exceptionally attractive to those in urgent need of a pucca house, but do not have the means to qualify for a regular Home Loan.
4. If an individual eligible under the PMAY has already constructed or purchased or extended a house or a flat with their own money, they are entitled to seek reimbursement for the same.
5. If an individual eligible under the PMAY has already procured a Home Loan for the construction or purchase of a new house or flat, or for the extension of their place of residence, they are entitled to reap the benefits of this housing scheme.
Owing to the immense benefits that this scheme provides to a wide array of people for whom a house of their home was nothing more than a distant dream, the Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana has been received with open arms!

HÀ NỘI — RMIT and Tôn Đức Thắng were victorious at the first National University Championship basketball tournament, known as NUC Basketball, on Thursday night in HCM City.
RMIT University outscored the University of Transport and Communications 70-47 in the final of the men's tournament held at Việt Nam National University HCM City.
RMIT, which went undefeated in the tournament, jumped ahead and dominated the game from the beginning.
Jamie Martin, Tấn Khoa, Đình Huy and Minh Tính led the scoring for the team which surged to a 15-3 lead at the middle of the first quarter. Transport and Communications made an incredible scoring run to level the score at 19-19 at the end of the first quarter, but it was their only highlight of the game.
RMIT again set up the pace of the match in the next three quarters with Martin showing off his amazing skills. He was voted the tournament's Most Valuable Player with 19 points, 14 rebounds and 4 assists.
University of Pedagogy of Sports Hà Nội and Hoa Sen University shared third place.
Võ Mai Trúc Linh of Tôn Đức Thắng University (in blue) tries to defend a player of Hoa Sen University during the women's final. Linh was the MVP of the championship.
On the women's side, the final was a rematch between Tôn Đức Thắng and Hoa Sen universities, the two representatives of the South region.
Hoa Sen defeated Tôn Đức Thắng 49-34 in the final of the South region qualification but they failed to repeat that win in the national final on Thursday.
Both two teams played strong defence but it was Tôn Đức Thắng's players who were better in converting their opportunities into points. They took a lead of 14-11 after two quarters. It was 29-16 in the third quarter with Võ Mai Trúc Linh scoring on pick and rolls and Thanh Dừa's hitting open three-point shots.
Hoa Sen tried to fight back but could not narrow the gap.
Tôn Đức Thắng enjoyed sweet revenge, winning 34-30 to lift the trophy while Linh was named MVP.
Việt Nam National University HCM City's International University and Hà Nội National University of Education each tied for third place.
The winning teams grabbed a prize of VNĐ50 million (US$2,050).
The second and third-placed sides will received VNĐ30 million and VNĐ20 million, respectively.
The MVPs were awarded VNĐ5 million each.
The 2022 NUC Basketball was jointly organised by the MoET, Max Sports Entertainment Joint Stock Company and Vietcontent and Trading Joint Stock Company. VNS

It's no surprise to my colleagues that I'm an avid fan of Manchester – and we're not talking United! In my humble (1/3rd Northern) opinion, Manchester is easily the U.K's second city (and the sheer amount of cranes in the sky are testament to this!). Plus Faye Ripley said so in Cold Feet, so it's a fact!
Manchester is world famous for some many things (music, boy bands, 24-hour party people, the football league, vegetarianism, splitting the atom, the Industrial Revolution, Corrie, the computer, fashion, Rolls-Royce, M&S and so on) but what really makes the city unique to me are the people: Mancunians embrace you with effortless charm and humour, displaying a complete lack of pretence and a friendliness that some Southerners may find disconcerting.
I moved to Manchester (or Madchester as it was called back then) in the late 90's and lived there on/off for a decade, so I still consider the city my second home – hence my jokey office title as 'Manchester Expert'. Back then, I couldn't believe the sheer amount of bars and restaurants, and the ability to go clubbing all night long and then go straight to work.
But let's talk events! Manchester is ranked as a leading conference destination for planners and delegates alike, and is crammed with contemporary and historic venues, from waterside museums to monasteries, futuristic skyscrapers to Victorian splendour.
I was recently hosted by Hotel Football (and their portfolio of city-based venues managed by Ryan Giggs and the Gary Neville) and spent a hot summer's evening in Heaven (the top-floor mock football pitch with a retractable roof). This space can be used for any time of event – drinks receptions, seated dinners, team-building or in my case, crazy golf! Resisting the urge to whack a ball over the top of Man Utd (which is mere yards away), we all enjoyed a bowl food supper whilst watching the sun set over the River Irwell, Media City and the glimmering skyline of the city centre. The hotel has some great function rooms for up to 350 theatres style, all with full-length windows overlooking the Quays or the stadium – one has its own Player's Kitchen for fun refreshment breaks!
The following day, we were treated to a sneaky peak of the upcoming 5-star Stock Exchange Hotel located in the City Centre. We donned hard hats to explore several floors of bedrooms, function rooms and a majestic domed restaurant – all currently under construction or restoration. Due to open early 2019, this venue is going to look superb, and an unnamed celebrity singer has already pre-booked the Suite for its luxury steam shower!
A treasure hunt around the city centre then led us to 2 more venues in the GG Hospitality collection – the historic Manchester Cathedral (a stunning backdrop for private dinners up to 940 people) and the futuristic Football Museum, which has several open plan floors for drinks receptions and roadshows, all linked by a funicular! On the top floor of the museum, is the Rabbit in the Moon restaurant with a 'Space Age Asian' theme, slightly bonkers décor and panoramic views over the city.
Every time I return to the city, I am staggered by the amount of new and innovative venues popping up, as Manchester continues to constantly reinvent itself. Next up, I'm excited to visit the new 20 Stories with its glamourous restaurant and 360-degree views across to the Peak District.
This is definitely one city where I'm Mad fer it!


Wrestling is a highly-disciplined sport that teaches the players how to think strategically and to try and sense his opponent's next move. There are particular wrestling coaching tips that can make wrestling easier to adapt.
2. Teach, focus and coach on the basic wrestling moves so as not to overwhelm the wrestlers. Make sure they have the foundational wrestling moves intact before showing them strategy moves or other complicated maneuvers. This breeds confidence and gives them a skill base to always refer back.
3. Coach and play all of the wrestlers during practices and games. There will surely be a few highly-skilled players, but also give the players with limited skills mat time as well. This boosts confidence and helps the wrestler to become acclimated to competition, the mat and a chance to strengthen their current skill level.


Pakistani rockstar Salman Ahmad to collaborate with American singer Alison Sudol for Pakistan flood victims song.
Alison Sudol, is known professionally as A Fine Frenzy. She is an American alternative singer and songwriter and pianist.
The project established her as one of the most talented young singers and songwriters around; it received rave reviews, was widely exposed through songs being licensed to numerous television shows including the television series House, and reached Number One on Billboard's "Heatseeker" charts.
She has recently collaborated with the rockstar Salman Ahmad on Pakistan flood victims song. According to Salman, she sang a Sufi inspired melody with him on "Pakistan Hamara" (yes, its name has been changed from Khwab).
"Her desi accent is excellent!", says Salman.
Sudol is far from being some kind of romantic Luddite. In fact, she was active on Twitter long before it became a cultural phenomenon—to the point that she now has over a million and a half followers, making her one of the top ten artists on the service, alongside folks like Britney Spears and John Mayer.
Salman further added that Peter Gabriel will be bringing his genius to the song on September 6th. "Will try and send a picture from the studio", says Salman.
From the featured musicians, this project seems like an exciting one for which we all will be waiting for any further updates. Till than watch this space.

Teach For America, the teacher-training and placement program, today officially endorsed the implementation of the Common Core State Standards, deeming them "a critical step toward educational excellence for students."
Both TFA and the common-core standards are probably some of the mostly hotly debated initiatives in all of K-12 education, so this announcement is sure to create some waves.
In throwing its weight behind the standards, TFA nods to the fact that four states have not adopted them.
What's not at all clear is why TFA feels that such an announcement of support is necessary. It's hard to know whether the endorsement by TFA, an influential group typically associated with "reform-minded" policies, will convince anyone on the fence about the standards (if there is anyone on the fence about them anymore) or alter the political landscape around the standards. A number of politicans have recently expressed concerns about the standards, though no state has pulled out. That said, there have been some defections from the two common-core-testing consortia.
TFA's executives will be blogging more this week about the endorsement, so we'll watch to see if they provide any answers.


Metropolitan Bilbao is home to around half the population and economic activity of the Basque Country, one of the most competitive European regions. Bilbao is a city that has been able to turn "problems" into "opportunities". The need for change, due to the decline of the industrial era, made the way to the new post-industrial metropolis. Over the last 30 years Bilbao has evolved to a modern and reliable city, it is efficient, friendly and an attractive place to live, work and visit. Today, the economic and social environment and climate of the city stimulates the development of new technologies, promotes innovative industry, with high added value, and boosts the tourism, culture, leisure and services of an advanced society. Bilbao is a city open to the world.

First Law of Thermodynamics
The laws of thermodynamics are simple to state. Do you know that the human body obeys the laws of thermodynamics? We start to sweat and feel warm when we're in a room full of people and the sweating becomes excessive if the room size is small. This happens because your body is trying to cool off hence heat transfers from your body in the form of 'sweat'. This entails the first law of thermodynamics. Interesting? Let us study more.
2 First Law of Thermodynamics
2.1 Thermodynamic Cycles
3 Limitations of First Law of Thermodynamics
4 Solved Examples For You
The first law of thermodynamics states that the total energy of an isolated system is constant. Energy can be transformed from one form to another, but can neither be created nor destroyed.
According to this law, some of the heat given to system is used to change the internal energy while the rest in doing work by the system. Mathematically,
ΔQ=ΔU+ΔW
ΔQ = Heat supplied to the system
ΔW= Work done by the system.
ΔU = Change in the internal energy of the system.
If Q is positive, then there is a net heat transfer into the system, if W is positive, then there is work done by the system. So positive Q adds energy to the system and positive W takes energy from the system.
It can also be represented as ΔU=ΔQ−W
We can say that internal energy tends to increase when heat is given to the system and vice versa.
Thermodynamic Cycles
In an isolated system, the total energy remains the same. In a thermodynamic cycle, the net heat supplied to the system equals the net work done by the system. Like for example, the batteries we use convert chemical energy into electrical enrrgy. Also the electric bulbs transform electrical energy into light energy.
Work done on, or by a gas, depends not only on the initial and final states of the gas but also on the process, or the path which produces the final state. Similarly, the amount of heat transferred into, or from a gas also depends on the initial and final states and the process which produces the final state.
The internal energy is just a form of energy like the potential energy of an object at some height above the earth, or the kinetic energy of an object in motion. In the same way that potential energy converts in to kinetic energy while conserving the total energy of the system, the internal energy of a thermodynamic system converts in to either kinetic or potential energy. Like potential energy, the internal energy can be stored in the system. The first law of thermodynamics allows for many possible states of a system to exist, but only certain states are found to exist in nature.
Limitations of First Law of Thermodynamics
The limitation of the first law of thermodynamics is that it does not say anything about the direction of flow of heat.
It does not say anything whether the process is a spontaneous process or not.
The reverse process is not possible. In actual practice, the heat doesn't convert completely into work.If it would have been possible to convert the whole heat into work, then we could drive ships across the ocean by extracting heat from the water of the ocean.
Solved Examples For You
Q: Find out the internal energy of a system which has constant volume and the heat around the system is increased by 50 J?
Sol: Given, q = 50 J
Since the gas is in constant volume, Δv=0
w= pΔv=0
The equation for internal energy is, ΔU = q + w
ΔU= q+0
ΔU = q = 50 J

N.H. foreclosures rise, but slightly
There were slightly more foreclosures recorded in New Hampshire this past October than there were in October 2010, but so far this year there have been significantly fewer foreclosures than there were in 2010.That's according to the New Hampshire Housing Financing Authority, which found that there were 262 foreclosure deeds recorded in New Hampshire in October.That is a slight increase from October 2010, when there were 255 recorded, but a 13 percent decrease from the 301 recorded in September of this year.Year to date, there have been 8.5 percent fewer foreclosures this year than last.Despite the improvements over last year, there continue to be a significant number of households in the state that are delinquent on their mortgages, the authority said.That's because lenders have been extending the period of delinquency prior to foreclosure, which they're doing for two reasons. The first is because of delays in document processing. The second is that they're hoping that the market will improve and mitigate their losses.Those conditions "set the stage for a protracted period where significant numbers of foreclosed and distressed properties will negatively influence the housing market, slowing its overall recovery," it said.Foreclosure auction notices — which indicate the number of households that are seriously in danger of defaulting on their mortgages — increased 2 percent over the previous month, from 636 in September to 647 in October. Still, that is nearly 14 percent lower than last October. It's also the lowest October monthly activity since 2007.The authority said the continued decline "is suggestive of future declines in the number of foreclosure deeds." — KATHLEEN CALLAHAN/NEW HAMPSHIRE BUSINESS REVIEW

I recently noticed that the most popular URL shortening service has been blocked in India. Initially, when I tried to access an adf.ly URL from an anonymous source, I thought that may be the temporary problem with the site but later I figured out that Adf.ly has been blocked in India. I was able to find an alternate way to access Adf.ly site. basically, Adf.ly is a web service which helps you to shorten the URL and also pays bucks to members. Unfortunately due to some reasons, Adf.ly has been blocked in India. Learn how to access Adf.ly URLs in India without having to use a VPN service.
India is a country where not much internet contents are censored as compared to Arab countries. The Department of Communications has blocked the site Adf.ly and it looks that Adf.ly has been blocked temporarily in India. There had occurred a issue with Adf.ly and until a legal report from the court, they are not supposed to make Indian users to access Adf.ly links.
Adf.ly has blocked the default unsecured URL but has not blocked the secured URL (https). Also, the site is accessible using a sub domain. Adf.ly links which point to download sites and other places where people find it interesting or important are now open.
To access Adf.ly URL, you can use any of the two methods.
Access the Adf.ly link with https. For example, https://adf.ly/T3s0o instead of http://adf.ly/T3s0o.
You can also access Adf.ly links by prefixing 'v2.' in the link. For example, you can access http://v2.adf.ly/T3s0o in India.
This block may be released after legal court announce in court and users from India should be able to access Adf.ly link directly as we browse around other sites.

Tidal stream energy could bring a £1.4bn boost to the UK economy by 2030, according to a new report. The evidence-based study think tank Offshore Renewable Energy (ORE) Catapult found that the tidal stream industry could also support some 4,000 energy jobs during this time. The positive report predicted that the jobs created would be centred in coastal areas 'with greater need for economic regeneration' such as Wales, Scotland and the South West of England.
Tidal energy channels the natural ebb and flow of coastal waters using tidal stream devices which then in turn utilise currents, similarly to submerged wind turbines. Due to the high density of water, the blades can be much smaller yet yield a significant amount of power. Wave energy as a whole could support up to 8,100 jobs by 2040, and contribute £4bn.
Dr Stephen Wyatt, ORE Catapult's research director, said: "The findings of our research are encouraging, with the potential for significant economic benefits to be realised from the UK marine energy resources.
This is particularly welcome news at the time of celebrating World Environment Day, and the chief executive of the UK's leading not-for-profit renewable energy trade association, Renewable UK, agrees. Hugh McNeal told The Scotsman: "The UK has led the world in developing tidal stream and wave technologies, and this report shows that marine renewables could follow the UK's offshore wind industry in achieving significant cost reductions.

The Joartemaq website needed an upgrade to become more appropriate to the current reality, and in order to illustrate the diversified offer of solutions and equipment that the company provides.
The choice for Joomla CMS was evident, given the versatility that this Content Management System offers. Besides, Joomla is a robust platform capable of handling large volumes of data, adapting to any business as it grows.
Therefore, individual pages were created for the different company solutions, as well as profiles for each of its products to give a clear idea of what Joartemaq has to offer.
This equipment and solutions catalogue is valued with information and images that can help potential customers decide what they need to buy.
Joartemaq's products are part of its business identity as one of the aspects that distinguishes the company from the competition. Creating an intuitive and easy-to-access product catalogue enables to highlight brand assets, reinforcing its identity, as well as the confidence that potential customers place in it.
Digital catalogues are a marketing tool with strong potential, helping to promote sales in eCommerce businesses and in other areas. They are often the first contact a potential buyer has with a company's products. A first step that can lead the page visitor to become a customer in a physical store sale later.
The website development also had a strong concern in implementing effective and appealing Call To Actions in order to generate leads and to raise potential customers.
The design of the website was done from scratch, meeting the policy of Grow Under that bets on customized solutions tailored to each project it embraces.
It was necessary to organize and restructure the contents of the website so that it was easier and more immediate to check the available information.
The result is largely satisfactory, with a luminous and attractive graphic image and relevant content that contribute to strengthen the core business of Joartemaq.

Journalist Maya Dusenbery's new book—Doing Harm: The Truth About How Bad Medicine and Lazy Science Leave Women Dismissed, Misdiagnosed, and Sick—is an in-depth examination of how gender bias in medicine has negatively impacted women's health for generations. In a starred review, Publishers Weekly noted that Doing Harm "skillfully interweaves history, medical studies, current literature, and hard data to produce damning evidence that women wait longer for diagnoses, receive inadequate pain management, and are often told they are imagining symptoms that are taken seriously in men."
Dusenbery, a Minnesota native, has written about women's and reproductive health issues for a wide variety of media outlets, including Slate, Cosmopolitan.com, HuffPost, TheAtlantic.com, and Teen Vogue. She is the editorial director of the feminist site Feministing.com, and she has previously been a fellow at Mother Jones magazine and a columnist at Pacific Standard. Before becoming a full-time journalist, she worked at the National Institute for Reproductive Health. Doing Harm, which was published by HarperOne, is her first book.
We recently talked with Dusenbery about her book and her other work.
What started you on this book project?
About five years ago I was diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis, and that got me started down this path. I had a pretty easy time getting diagnosed and always felt my concerns were taken seriously. Once I was diagnosed, I got interested in learning more about autoimmune diseases. I learned that many autoimmune patients—most of whom are women—aren't as lucky as me. According to one recent survey, the average autoimmune patient sees four doctors over four year before being properly diagnosed, and about half report being dismissed as "chronic complainers" during that time. And as I started to tune into it, I started hearing lots of stories from female friends and peers who'd struggled to get diagnosed with other health problems and felt like their symptoms weren't being taken seriously, or that they were being treated as if the symptoms were "all in their head." And as a feminist I wanted to understand what those experiences were rooted in.
The book reviews how ME/CFS (myalgic encephalopathy/chronic fatigue syndrome), fibromyalgia, many autoimmune diseases like multiple sclerosis, and other chronic illnesses are all part of the group you refer to as "the disorders formerly known as hysteria." Can you elaborate?
There are a lot of diseases we recognize today that have been carved out of a wastebasket diagnostic category of illness that in past centuries was called hysteria and since then has gotten different euphemisms, like psychogenic, psychosomatic, or somatization disorders. ME/CFS is one of them—I think that is a pretty dark example of a condition that disproportionally affects women and is very much stereotyped as a women's disease. That is in large part why, I would argue, it is understudied and belittled. Skeptics of the illness have often pointed to the fact that it mostly impacts women as a reason to believe that it's psychosomatic.
That's a common pattern. Conditions like interstitial cystitis, fibromyalgia, endometriosis, and vulvodynia also have a very similar history: You find descriptions in the past medical literature that match them, but for decades beginning in the early 20th century, when hysteria came to be seen as a psychological problem post-Freud, they were just assumed to be psychosomatic. It wasn't until the eighties and nineties that some of these conditions were even named and defined, let alone studied. And for all of them, it's been very difficult to get research funding because they were assumed to be psychosomatic. But that's the catch-22: You can't prove they're not psychosomatic unless you do the research. And again, I think a major reason that medicine has been so content to believe these conditions are psychosomatic is that they disproportionately impact women, and there's this long tradition of viewing women as especially prone to "hysterical" symptoms.
What were your main findings about why we're in the situation we're in?
The book lays out two problems that I see in the system—what I refer to as the knowledge gap and the trust gap. The knowledge gap refers to the deficit of knowledge we have had about women's bodies and about conditions that disproportionately affect women. That's a legacy of the many decades during which women were excluded from clinical research and their concerns were a low priority on research agendas. And the trust gap has been the tendency on the part of health care providers to not trust women's self-reports of what they're experiencing in their bodies—to minimize, normalize, or psychologize their symptoms. And that, in turn, has led to a lack of trust in the medical system on the part of women who have experienced this dismissal.
For me, the most striking thing that I discovered in the research was how those two problems seem to be so mutually reinforcing. The less knowledge we have about women's health, the more women find their symptoms are "medically unexplained," and then the symptoms often get dismissed as psychological. So the knowledge gap sort of creates this presumption that women's symptoms are often psychosomatic. On the flip side, the tendency to assume that women's unexplained symptoms must be psychosomatic has perpetuated these knowledge gaps, since it leads to a lack of research—and even a lack of awareness of the need for research.
I think this is very much a problem that's rooted in systemic and unconscious gender bias. I certainly don't think in most cases it's based in any sort of consciously held prejudice—it's about these implicit assumptions that we all have, male or female, in the medical profession or not. And it's also in large part about how medical knowledge itself has been impacted and skewed by gender bias over the centuries. I'm hopeful we can turn this around, because there does seem to be somewhat more openness within the medical profession today to thinking about these implicit biases and acknowledging that there are some gaps in medical knowledge.
Can you elaborate on the concept of medically unexplained symptoms?
Medically unexplained symptoms, or MUS, is a phrase that applies to individual symptoms that patients present to a doctor that the doctor doesn't think are attributable to a physical cause. The term is also used to refer to a range of illnesses, like fibromyalgia, ME/CFS, irritable bowel syndrome, and others without identified causes. Most patients with MUS—about 70 percent, according to the medical literature—are women. In the literature, MUS is often used synonymously with terms that imply a psychogenic cause, like somatization disorder. That reflects a deeply ingrained tendency in medicine to assume that anything that is "medically unexplained" must, by default, have a psychological explanation instead.
So the problem is that medicine tends to see medically unexplained symptoms not just as medically unexplained but medically unexplainable. And the term is also used as if it is a disease category in and of itself. That is, MUS is talked about as if it's a 'thing,' even though it covers everything from idiopathic low back pain to unexplained seizures or other symptoms that are only united by the fact that they're not fully explained by medical science. These symptoms go into that diagnostic wastebasket, which is where everything we can't explain goes until we can explain it. Over the decades, many conditions have been removed from the wastebasket and accepted as legitimate diseases as we have come to better understood their underlying mechanisms. But, as we've seen with ME/CFS and other "disorders formerly known as hysteria," that evolution can take a long time because they're less likely to be researched if they're in the wastebasket.
Another big problem with how the concept of medically unexplained symptoms is used is that it tends to obscure the reality of diagnostic errors. In the medical literature, it's reported that a high percentage—from one-third to two-thirds—of patients seen in both primary and secondary care have MUS. But there is not much acknowledgment that at least some of these cases are patients with a perfectly diagnosable disease who just haven't gotten that diagnosis yet. There are very few follow-up studies to show how many patients with alleged MUS actually get diagnosed down the line. Often it's not even acknowledged that you need that follow-up study—that saying X percent of symptoms are medically unexplained without knowing what happened afterwards isn't very meaningful data.
What are the implications for patients if something is treated like MUS?
Symptoms that are lumped into this category are thought to be already explained by psychiatric problems, so patients are inappropriately treated with psychotropic drugs or referred for psychotherapy. And, of course, they're also not getting the treatment they do need. If patients are labeled with MUS when they actually have a yet-to-be-diagnosed disease—like an autoimmune disease—that can mean lasting disability or death.
There is also a lot of circular reasoning when it comes to deciding that a patient is experiencing MUS. Doctors are told that patients with MUS tend to insist that their disease is physical, resist psychiatric treatment, and see many health care providers—or "doctor shop." But, of course, all of those things are exactly what a patient with an undiagnosed medical condition would be doing. These are perfectly rational behaviors and yet they're somehow taken as hallmark signs that these patients don't have a physical disease. This creates a very dangerous dynamic where once a patient has been labeled as having MUS, it becomes extremely difficult to convince doctors otherwise—everything you might do will just seem to confirm it.
Isn't this situation frustrating for doctors as well as patients?
Very much so! And I'm certainly sympathetic to individual doctors—I can see how it would be very easy to be frustrated with patients experiencing an illness you can't explain, and then project some of that frustration onto the patients. But it's important for doctors to recognize that a patient who is reporting symptoms that they don't have any explanation for might have her symptoms explained down the line by another doctor. And what I learned from experts in diagnostic error is that there is overconfidence among doctors about their diagnostic skills—they recognize that diagnostic errors happen but think that they personally don't make them very often.
And that's not even their fault. The problem is we don't have feedback systems in place that will actually let doctors know they made an error. So they assume they've gotten the diagnosis right unless they hear otherwise—and they usually don't unless the patient themselves comes back to tell them they were wrong. In other words, they overestimate their batting average, and they also continue to hold the same stereotypes they had about her: that she was yet another woman complaining of "medically unexplained symptoms." And that affects how they perceive the next woman who comes to them reporting similar symptoms.
Frankly, doctors should be on the front lines calling for an investment in scientific research to explain these poorly understood conditions so that they are no longer in the position they're currently in: unequipped to offer a large percentage of their patients an explanation and effective therapies for their illnesses. This status quo is bad for everyone, doctors and patients, and severely erodes the doctor-patient relationship. But doctors are in a better position to bring about the change that's needed to close these knowledge gaps.

Global relocation costs continue to challenge employers
Catherine Soehner
The cost of moving workers globally weighs heavily on the minds of employers, especially in the U.S., U.K. and China, according to a recent survey.
On the bright side, relocation industry leaders point out that there are some smart money-saving strategies managers can use, including conducting a detailed line-item review of policies, which can eliminate duplicate allowances, and adjusting benefits and yield savings, said Tim O'Shea, vice president of consulting services at Aurora, CO-based Graebel Relocation.
Cartus, a global relocation service provider, reports that 78% of 148 mobility managers worldwide cited controlling relocation and assignment costs as the biggest industry challenge, followed by complying with laws and regulations (62%) and dealing with compensation-related issues (44%).
The United States ranked as the most challenging country for trying to rein in expenses, with the U.K. and China next in line. Removing relocation benefits like house scouting trips and trailing spouse assistance as well as providing cheaper tiers of benefits for specified groups of employees also can cut costs.
Although cost control remains the top concern for mobility managers, those concerns do appear to be subsiding, as 54% of respondents said the need to control costs is about the same as last year. Only 45% said it is a bigger concern than last year (compared with 57% who said so in 2014 and 76% in 2010.)
Regarding compliance issues related to relocation, such as visa waits, Matt Spinolo, executive vice president of global client services at Cartus, says it's a good idea for relocation managers to meet with HR and business leaders on a quarterly basis to set proper expectations for visa timing and complexity.
