Suicidality
Answers to Your Questions
What is Ketamine?
Ketamine is a legal anesthetic. In breakthrough research, it was also found to provide fast-acting and potentially life-saving relief for many patients who have major depression resistant to treatment, or suicidal thoughts. Research is also showing promise for other mood disorders or chronic mental-health conditions that have not been helped by traditional treatments when administered off-label under clinical, controlled settings using dosages different from its use as an anesthetic. Ketamine is used illegally and in higher doses as a recreational drug, which can cause dissociation with hallucinations.
How does IV ketamine work on severe conditions, such as major depression?
When stressed, which includes periods of severe mood disorders, such as major depression, changes happen in the brain. The hormone cortisol is released. Cortisol can damage neural connections and ketamine appears to act to restore some of the connections that have been lost. As well, ketamine acts on the neurotransmitter glutamate, in contrast to traditional antidepressants, which increase neurotransmitters like serotonin but they either take a long time to work, or for some people, don't work at all. Studies are ongoing on the complex ways ketamine may work in the brain. Clinical trials have shown that 60% to 70% of patients with treatment-resistant depression have been responsive to ketamine.
How long do the effects of ketamine last?
The long-term effects of ketamine are not known at this time. Current evidence suggests that most patients stay well for a couple of months with others staying well for longer periods of time. It is recommended to take booster shots as needed. Theses are typically administered once every 1-2 months.
Can IV ketamine treat anxiety disorders, PTSD, OCD, bipolar disorder and suicidality?
Ketamine has shown promise in several studies at prestigious universities and hospitals in providing relief for anxiety disorders, PTSD, OCD, bipolar disorder and suicidality, as well as treatment-resistant depression. Because of its rapid effects in many patients, it is given to patients with suicidality in some emergency departments.
Why IV ketamine infusions?
We have chosen intravenous (IV) delivery of therapeutic doses of ketamine in order to provide the most accurate, efficient, safe and fast-acting treatment. IV infusions mean 100% of the medication is getting to your bloodstream, and can begin to act quickly. IV delivery also allows for precision dosing, and carefully controlled delivery by a doctor.
How quickly does IV ketamine treatment begin to work?
Some patients experience relief within hours, while others may see relief in days. A full treatment protocol is 6 infusions. Some patients may require repeated treatments. Our staff have specific expertise in ketamine treatment for mood disorders and chronic mental-health conditions and will monitor and adjust your treatment to give you the treatment plan that best matches your needs.
Is IV ketamine safe?
The infusion of IV ketamine in a medical clinic supervised by an anesthesiologist is safe. Treatment at a therapeutic dose is non-addictive. One of the most common side effects during treatment is a sense of dissociation (or disconnection from yourself or your surroundings), which disappears soon after the infusion.
Is IV ketamine right for me?
Our staff psychiatrist will determine whether you are a good candidate for IV ketamine infusions. Contact us for more information.
Are ketamine infusions covered by OHIP?
At this time, public insurance such as OHIP does not cover IV ketamine treatments.
Are there any contraindications for ketamine?
Currently there is a contraindication to ketamine for those suffering from psychotic disorders. This would include those who suffer from conditions that include hallucinations and delusions.
How much do ketamine infusions cost?
$600 per infusion, with the typical protocol being 6 infusions.
Do I need a doctor to refer me for IV ketamine infusions?
If you have been treated for major depression or anxiety, PTSD, OCD or bipolar disorder and have not experienced relief with current treatments, you can ask your doctor to fill out a referral form or contact us.
What can I expect IV ketamine infusion treatment to be like?
If you are a candidate for IV ketamine treatments, you will be scheduled for a series of 45-minute sessions of intravenous infusions in our Toronto clinic. You will be offered a recovery period after your treatment, which depends on your individual response, and you will need a companion to accompany you home after treatment. You will be scheduled for three weeks of 2-times-a-week infusions. Follow-up visits for booster infusions are available as needed, and would typically be in 2-3 months, depending on individual needs.
Do I need to stop my current treatments?
You don't need to stop your current treatments. Your doctor at Toronto Ketamine Clinic will review your medical history and potentially consult with your doctor to determine the best course of treatment.
When can I start ketamine infusion treatments?
Once you have been approved by the clinic psychiatrist, you can book your first treatment.

Passed this billboard on the way to work this morning.
Isn't it from some conservative organization? Who knows.
Why did they put up this billboard? How are they asking me to think and behave like Nelson Mandela? Do they want me to go to prison for 30 years in defiance of my government and then return to lead the people? Or is he a symbol?
What would be this moment's cultural equivalent of Nelson Mandela? What would it be like if a portion of us behaved like Nelson Mandela? Is that what Occupy was? Where did that energy go? What's next?
Will getting health care for all be remembered as Obama's space program? Isn't it a logical step towards wellness for all? How can we return to wholeness/planetary awareness?
I recently spoke at TEDx Bend. Afterwards I felt a little 'eh.' You know how TED works - you have less than 18 minutes, you stand lit-up on a stage with a head mic and try to say something that will transform someone's life. It's a minefield, and you try to stand there in a way that's authentic, vulnerable, and packaged. It was difficult.
I remember two moments on stage where I really felt connected and centered. One was when I admitted to feeling nerves, and expressed my fears whether what I was presenting was good enough to share at a TEDx event. I asked the audience whether they had ever experienced fear or self-doubt. I expected to see lots of hands, but I didn't anticipate their hearty laughter. Of course we're all scared and full of self-doubts! Ahhh. Good. Then I'm fine.
The second moment was when another heart-felt remark also received a big and unexpected laugh. I shared that I'd been seeking my own purpose for forty years, since I was a four-year-old, at least, when I remember thinking: What the hell is going on? What is the world asking of me?
Afterwords a woman waited patiently to speak with me. She had a note in her hand. She walked up and said, "I have the name of your book. I've tested it around the room." It said: WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON? By Jelly Helm.
What the hell is going on. Boston? More than Boston. Everything, the flux. The sense that we have lost a shared plot, or realized that our old plot is not serving us any longer. What's next? Surely not more of the same. And there's nothing we can 'go back' to either. Clearly the way is forward. What does that look like? How do we get there? What are we supposed to do now?
The map that is most reassuring to me is this one, the spiral dynamics map. It's based on the idea that humans are developing creatures, with much potential ahead. This model not only articulates those potentialities, but presents a path to get there.
According to adherents of this model, developmentally, globally, we are at the "What the hell is going on" stage, as significant numbers of people move into the yellow stage, representing not just an advancement on the previous stage, but a fundamental shift in the foundational ideas that have informed all the stages up until now. We are moving from Tier 1 to Tier 2 thinking.
The What the Hell moment is a result of having to not just think in new ways ourselves, but living with the tumult as we collectively rethink all of the systems and structures built on old ideas - how we think about wealth, food, education, security, the planet, family, each other, etc.
We've had explorers in this realm living among us. Buckminster Fuller had particularly acute vision of what is ahead.
So what do we do, now? What do I do? I am not Buckminster Fuller. I have a family to feed. I have a mortgage. I live in a world of old systems that I know are broken, but I still have to live with them, yes?
In my tidy Ted talk, I said the answer was simply to connect with your purpose, and offered three ways to do it, so neat that it fit on a button.
Today, despite the button, despite the intellectual certainty that Buckminster Fuller - and other yellow and beyond visionaries - are correct, this morning I am feeling a little what the hell. What the hell?
Parker Palmer called it the Tragic Gap, the place of tension between what we know is not working and what we know to be possible. We hold this spot, sit with all the discomfort, and seeming paradox, and all the unknowing. Hold this spot. It takes courage to stay here. I think of courage as not lack of fear or bravery, but doing something even if you don't want to, even if you feel afraid. That's how I feel sometimes.
And we press ahead. The faith walk. With excerpts from two poems to lead the way.
Thanks to the people who've migrated over there. Sorry to the folks who followed the blawg who don't do FB. I like being over there because the conversation is more participatory, no anonymous comments, either - everyone is as exposed as me.
And here's the article I linked to. Thanks for looking into this issue.


text:
The North Eastern Railway (NER) Bogie Tank Passenger (BTP) locomotives were designed by Edward Fletcher in 1873. The locomotives were for hauling passenger services on branch lines.  They had an 0-4-4 wheel layout and a total of 124 locomotives were built. They were designated G6 by the London and North Eastern Railway (LNER).

Rebuilds
With the introduction of the NER Class O (LNER G5), BTP locomotives started to become redundant. Fifty of the redundant BTPs were rebuilt between 1899 and 1908 as NER Class 290 (later LNER Class J77) 0-6-0T locomotives. In 1903, locomotive No. 957 was rebuilt as a 2-2-4T (later designated LNER Class X2) specifically for hauling an officer's saloon. With the reduction in passenger services towards the end of World War I, many of the BTPs became redundant. In 1921, ten BTPs were rebuilt to create further Class 290 locomotives.

Steam autocars
Many class BTPs gained a further lease of life in the early 1900s by being converted to work the Steam Autocars (push–pull trains) then being introduced.  A Steam Autocar consisted of a BTP with one or two coaches (in which case the engine was in the middle), the train was driven from a driving compartment in the leading coach, leaving the fireman on the footplate.  The driver had control of the regulator and reverser by means of a mechanical connection running under the coach and connecting to the engine using a form of universal joints.  The driver also had full (Westinghouse) brake control via a second air pipe connection to the engine.  This high pressure air supply also worked a whistle mounted above the driving compartment.  Finally there was speaking tube communication between the driver and fireman - although there is evidence that this was little used.

Steam autocars were gradually withdrawn as the LNER introduced Sentinel steam railcars.  The coaches were converted back to normal coaches but the BTPs were withdrawn.

Withdrawal
Withdrawals of the G6 took place between 1920 and 1929, and none were preserved.

Bonus Question: Is Hell exothermic (gives off heat) or endothermic (absorbs heat)? Most of the students wrote proofs of their beliefs using Boyle's Law (gas cools when it expands and heats when it is compressed) or some variant.
If Hell is expanding at a rate faster than the rate at which souls enter Hell, then the temperature and pressure will drop until Hell freezes over.
If we accept the postulate given to me by Teresa, (Cheerleader Captain and Class Valedictorian) during my Freshman year that, "it will be a cold day in Hell before I sleep with you", and take into account the fact that I slept with her last night and again this morning, then number 2 must be true, and thus I am sure that Hell is exothermic and has already frozen over.
The corollary of this theory is that since Hell has frozen over, it follows that it is not accepting any more souls and is therefore, extinct... leaving only Heaven, and thereby proving the existence of a divine being which explains why, Teresa kept shouting "Oh my God!!!
" THIS STUDENT RECEIVED THE ONLY "A."

True Life: I am a Laurel Mill Worker
Improve listing Presented by Laurel Historical Society
"True Life: I'm a Laurel Mill Worker" at the Laurel Museum in Laurel, Maryland explores a different side of Prince George's County's only Mill town and the community's early growth. Using a real 1870s family to tell the story, it introduces visitors to the lives and experiences of the hundreds of men, women and children who worked Laurel, Maryland's cotton mill between the 1830s-1929, when the mill closed for good. The exhibit opened in February, 2012 and runs through December, 2012.
The exhibition is laid out in two parts. In the first room visitors learn about mill worker life. In the second area, the exhibition recreates the living quarters of a mill family. The exhibition incorporates cotton mill artifacts, photos, contemporary excerpts from the diary of Laurel Mill Superintendent George Nye, and census data. There is a special emphasis on working children and special child-oriented questions and activities included in the exhibition.
Using the 10-member Waterman family, selected from 1870s census records, visitors learn about the jobs different members of the family, including its seven children, might have performed at the cotton mill. Visitors will be given a card for one of the family members and follow them through the exhibit. An adult visitor might follow Mark Waterman, 49, who may have worked in the picking room at the mill, where once the cotton bales were moved into the picking room, the cotton was unpacked and debris such as twigs, leaves, and bugs were removed. He might have earned: $7.43/wk or 11 cents/hr. A younger visitor might follow Sarah, his 13 year –old daughter, who may have worked as a creeler in the weaving room, making sure there was a constant supply of fresh bobbins for the cotton emerging from the card frames. She would have earned $4.00/wk or 6 cents/hr. In a paymaster's section of this room, and in an area in the Museum's downstairs, visitors learn firsthand what these wages might have purchased.
The front area also introduces visitors to some of the difficulties the mill experienced, and labor issues of the period. In the course of their research, LHS members discovered that workers over more than 20 years unsuccessfully tried to reduce their workday to 10 hours from 11 hours, and that workers at the factory resisted efforts to prohibit children under 16 from working.
Another area reveals that for Laurel's 307 Black and Mulatto workers (which is how the 1870 census identified them), mill employment was not an option. According to the census, no African-Americans are listed as working in the mill. The section suggests occupations in which this community might have worked in Laurel and the surrounding areas.
The exhibitions' second area re-creates an 1870s mill workers home in the Laurel Museum's building. Housing 10 people (9 family members and one other individual) the space would likely have been very crowded, with multiple children sharing beds and bedrolls. In addition to bedding, and trunks to store items, the space includes 3 kinds of lighting (kerosene, candle and oil), 2 types of heating (wood and coal), a chamber pot, sewing implements, fishing rod, baseball bat, clothing, and other items of everyday life that might have been present in a mill family home. The Laurel Museum building was originally 4 separate apartments, with individual kitchens for each family in the basement. The re-creation also includes a basement kitchen set-up as the 1870s family might have had, and where, the exhibit speculates, Virginia Bradley, a 25 year-old, white female listed as living with the family, might have slept.
Notes LHS Executive Director Lindsey Baker: "This exhibit answers the question that we are often asked when people enter the Museum "Who lived here?". In 'True Life: I'm a Laurel Mill Worker' we've explored the lives of the people who may have lived in our house and we hope to give our visitors a glimpse into the hard work these people put in over one hundred years ago."

Perception of institutional elder neglect (IEN) in civil court was investigated. Community members (N=134) read a fictional IEN civil trial summary in which an elderly female victim filed a lawsuit against her nursing home. Participants read a version in which the victim testified, or she was dead and the victim's recorded deposition was presented, the victim's niece testified, or no testimony was provided. Results indicated that live victim testimony and participants' ageist attitudes indirectly affected ruling through pro-victim and defendant credibility ratings, respectively. We discuss the impact of victim testimony and juror attitudes towards the elderly in IEN cases.

IEC Legislative Update
FY21 Budget and the Environment
5/26/20 UPDATE: On Friday, we provided an update on the state budget as it was proposed late last week–a maintenance budget that included several concerning cuts and a lack of funding for some environmental priorities.
Over the weekend, the legislature continued to meet and, through continued advocacy, we have several positive updates to report. The final budget and budget implementation plan were approved late Saturday, and a measure that could have limited transparency in government was shot down.
The proposal for up to 15% cuts across the board for various line items was removed. IEC will continue to advocate for the full expending of the appropriations that were passed for vital environmental programs and agencies.
The final budget did include $500,000 in funding for the Healthy Local Food Incentives Program, which supports the use of SNAP dollars at farmers markets.
An earlier version of the budget diverted funds from the Open Space Land Acquisition and Development fund to general state funds. This diversion was reversed and these funds will be available to parks and forest preserves for open space.
A measure to address government meetings and functioning during this crisis was proposed late last week. It included some dangerous changes to the Freedom of Information Access (FOIA) statute which is an important tool for keeping government transparent, especially when special interest polluters work behind closed doors. Fortunately, advocates, Governor Pritzker and legislative champions opposed these changes and they were not adopted.
5/22/20 UPDATE: As we write this update, the General Assembly is debating a budget for the 2021 fiscal year (FY21).
Though it is yet to be finalized, FY21 budget scenarios are bleak. Illinois is facing significant fiscal challenges in light of the COVID-19 pandemic, and the amount of money actually spent may be much less than what is appropriated.
While a maintenance budget has been proposed, the General Assembly has given the Governor and his agencies the discretionary authority to set aside up to 15% of any line item or lump sum of the budget. There is a large funding sweep of the Open Space and Land Acquisition Development proposed that would completely redirect this funding for FY21 to General Revenue Funds and we also expect borrowing of other environmental funds during the FY21 budget cycle.
Throughout the next few months as this money is expended, IEC will continue to advocate for the full funding of environmental programs and against any sweeps or cuts.
Below you can find more specific information on appropriations in the proposed budget:
Clean Energy and Clean Air
$50 million is appropriated from the Renewable Energy Resources Fund for the Illinois Solar for All program.
$70 million is re-appropriated from the capital budget for electrification infrastructure.
$70 million is re-appropriated from the capital budget for renewable energy and energy efficiency upgrades at state facilities.
$88 million is appropriated and re-appropriated VW settlement funding. IEC will advocate that transportation electrification opportunities are prioritized.
New, increased funding for the Low-Income Home Energy Assistance Program, as a result of federal appropriations. The budget bills also expand the eligibility for this program, allowing for more households in need to access support.
So far, rollover funding for important solar programs has not received a needed extension, despite our advocacy efforts.
Sustainable Agriculture and Local Food
Soil and Water Conservation Districts are set to receive $7.5 million, which is similar to FY20.
Cover crop insurance discount program is funded at $300,000, equal to last year's appropriation, but less than the Governor's proposed budget.
Open Space and Wildlife Preservation
The Department of Natural Resources budget is equal to FY20.
OSLAD, NAAF, and OLT are all appropriated towards open space programs, but OSLAD funds collected for the year have been redirected towards the General Revenue Funds.
$2.5 million is re-appropriated to initiate pre-construction engineering and design of the Brandon Road Project to combat the continued threat of Asian carp and aquatic invasive species.
$57 million is re-appropriated from the capital budget for the Conservation Reserve Enhancement Program, which helps protect environmentally sensitive areas.
IEPA is once again slated to have 768 employees in its headcount for FY2021, up from 677 estimated in FY20 and 617 in FY19. This number is still shockingly low, with headcounts of up to 900 only five years ago and over 1,200 15 years ago. Despite the overall budget picture, we encourage the IEPA to fully hire within the constraints of its budget.
$3 million is reappropriated to the Alternate Fuels rebate program for grants associated with clean transportation.
IEPA recycling efforts received level funding from the Solid Waste Management Fund.
$50 million is reappropriated for coal ash pollution prevention and clean-up, a major victory we worked to secure last year.

Confronted with liabilities to the tune of Rs 821.17 crore, the Central government-run Hindustan Antibiotics Ltd (HA) had proposed selling its surplus land in 2001, and finally got permission to do so from the Union government only in last December. Now, even as the tender process for the same is getting finalised, the Pimpri-Chinchwad Municipal Corporation (PCMC) is all set to table a proposal, which will reserve a 59-acre plot of the public sector undertaking (PSU) for building public amenities at Nehrunagar, Pimpri. This proposal will be placed before the civic body's general body when it meets on June 15.
According to the agenda listed for the forthcoming general body meeting, only 10 per cent of the open land will be developed to build an administrative office, shops, staff quarters, guest house, a fire station, space for banks and ATMs, a public library, a gymnasium, and also an unit offering emergency medical services. The remaining 90 per cent will be retained as open land, where educational, religious and political congregations and sports events can be hosted. It could serve as a parking lot and also a helipad, according to requirements.
While nobody from the company's management was willing to comment in the absence of any communication from PCMC, the news has left the staff a little confused about their tendering process, which is to be done by June 20, say insider sources. The company has already got a waiver for loans and interest, on a sum of Rs 307.23 crore. The company was looking to cater to its remaining liabilities by selling its land holdings of about 87.70 acres.
"PCMC will pay for the land in line with the current market rates for land acquisition. We can also offer TDR (transfer of development rights) in exchange for the land," explained PCMC commissioner, Shravan Hardikar. "Located in the heart of the city, the property will be a priced possession. We could not risk losing it in an open bid, so we chose the reservation route. The company will not lose out due to this deal, but will only benefit from it," he further explained.
Hardikar also pointed out that it was only a proposal that would be subsequently opened to suggestions and objections, before starting any negotiations with government authorities.

Les élections régionales de 2012 en Sarre () se tiennent le  de manière anticipée, afin d'élire les  de la  du Landtag pour un mandat de cinq ans.

La convocation du scrutin avec deux ans et demi d'avance sur le calendrier prévu résulte de la rupture de la  au pouvoir depuis . Le scrutin voit l'Union chrétienne-démocrate l'emporter une nouvelle fois sans retrouver la majorité absolue dont elle disposait entre  et . Bien qu'une alliance de gauche à deux ou trois partis soit arithmétiquement majoritaire, le Parti social-démocrate décide de rentrer dans une . Cette entente permet le maintien au pouvoir de la ministre-présidente sortante Annegret Kramp-Karrenbauer.

Contexte : l'échec de la coalition jamaïcaine
Au cours des élections régionales du 27 septembre 2009, l'Union chrétienne-démocrate d'Allemagne (CDU), au pouvoir depuis dix ans et dirigée à l'époque par le ministre-président Peter Müller, perd clairement sa majorité absolue avec un score en recul de  et huit députés. Dans son ensemble, la gauche remporte 51,2 % des suffrages et  sur 51, notamment grâce à la percée de , conduite par l'ancien ministre-président Oskar Lafontaine.

Toutefois, la CDU parvient à se maintenir au pouvoir, grâce à la formation d'une   avec le Parti libéral-démocrate/Parti démocrate de Sarre (FDP/DPS) et l'Alliance 90 / Les Verts (Grünen) ; une telle alliance bénéficie également de  au Parlement de Sarrebruck.

Le , Müller annonce son retrait de la vie politique pour les prochains mois. La ministre du Travail et des Affaires sociales Annegret Kramp-Karrenbauer, membre du gouvernement depuis , est aussitôt choisie comme candidate pour lui succéder, à l'unanimité du comité directeur et du groupe parlementaire de la CDU régionale. Élue présidente de la fédération régionale chrétienne-démocrate le  par 95 % des voix, elle est investie ministre-présidente par le Landtag le  au second tour de scrutin, avec  favorables contre  au social-démocrate Heiko Maas.

À la suite d'importantes dissensions internes au FDP/DPS, elle décide en , d'entamer des entretiens exploratoires avec le Parti social-démocrate d'Allemagne (SPD) en vue de constituer une éventuelle . Devant l'échec de ces discussions et face à l'éclatement de l'alliance au pouvoir, les deux grands partis se mettent finalement d'accord pour convoquer des élections régionales anticipées. Lors d'une session spéciale tenue le , le Landtag vote sa dissolution avec les voix de l'ensemble des groupes parlementaires, à l'exception du Parti libéral.

Mode de scrutin
Le Landtag est constitué de  (, MdL), élus pour une législature de cinq ans au suffrage universel direct et suivant le scrutin proportionnel d'Hondt.

Chaque électeur dispose d'une voix, qui est utilisée deux fois. Elle sert à voter pour une liste dans sa circonscription plurinominale, le Land comptant  qui totalisent  ; ce vote est alors attribué à la liste présentée par le même parti au niveau du Land.

À l'issue du scrutin, les  sont répartis à la proportionnelle entre les partis ayant remporté au moins 5 % des suffrages exprimés dans l'ensemble du Land. L'opération est ensuite recommencée dans chaque circonscription, la différence entre le total régional et le total des circonscriptions étant comblée par les candidats de la liste régionale. Si un parti n'en a pas présenté, le calcul est réajusté et ses mandats reviennent aux autres forces politiques.

Analyse
Contrairement à ce qu'annonçaient les sondages, l'Union chrétienne-démocrate d'Allemagne, au pouvoir depuis 1999, reste le premier parti du Land, d'environ cinq points, tout en obtenant un résultat similaire à celui de 2009. Le Parti social-démocrate d'Allemagne effectue, de son côté, un net redressement, en progressant de plus de six points et quatre sièges, ce qui lui permet de maintenir Die Linke, pourtant emmenée par l'ancien ministre-président du Land, Oskar Lafontaine, à distance, d'autant que la formation de gauche radicale recule sous la barre des 20 %.

Après les élections de Berlin, en 2011, le Parti des pirates confirme son implantation dans la vie politique allemande en dépassant nettement la barre des 5 % et se classant directement en quatrième place des forces politiques régionales. Il passe devant l'Alliance 90 / Les Verts, qui se maintient de justesse au Landtag, au contraire du Parti libéral-démocrate/Parti démocrate de Sarre, qui s'effondre complètement avec moins de 1,5 % des voix, pire qu'en 1994, quand il avait obtenu 2,1 %.

Conséquences
Le , la conservatrice Annegret Kramp-Karrenbauer est réinvestie ministre-présidente du Land. Elle est soutenue par une grande coalition, formée avec les sociaux-démocrates.

Q: Allow Users to distribute Django Web App with data I'm creating a progressive web app with Django. I know the web app saves the state for offline use and one can install it locally to their computer. However, is there any way for that user to distribute their version of the website with saved cache and browser database to another person who doesn't have internet? Say via flash drive or from one local PC to the next without internet.

A: There is an experimental web standard called Web Packaging that is working to allow sharing of websites in offline modes. It's not finalized and isn't supported in most browsers though.

It was only when I was part way through this book that I realised how the wording of the title so accurately reflects the thrust of the book. By that I mean that the title "Ramadan and Diabetes Care" emphasises the importance of Ramadan to the adherents of Islam, and how suitable diabetes care can make a positive contribution to the experience of fasting during Ramadan – whereas if the title was worded "Diabetes Care and Ramadan" it would have suggested that Ramadan was an inconvenient intrusion into diabetes care which is certainly not the theme of this book which tends towards a positive outlook on the effects of fasting even when there are possible negative sequelae that have to be mitigated.
Written by doctors, endocrinologists, and professors the book balances science with spirituality and whatever your concerns or questions about diabetes and fasting during Ramadan this book will answer them, and answer them in a positive and supportive way.
With Islam being the second largest religion worldwide, including millions of adherents with diabetes, the book addresses an important area in diabetes management. The increasing prevalence of diabetes and the concurrent inception of new and numerous pharmacological treatments which can induce both positive and negative effects during fasting, ensure that this book is a much needed and contemporary reference point. Indeed it is nice to have book that concentrates on fasting in its own right without distraction, and one would like to think that it would be a book of pertinence to the experiences of fasting for people with diabetes who are followers of other religions or belief systems.
Although the book is just over 200 pages the information is concise and easily assimilated and where necessary the structured text is supplemented by tables, diagrams, flow charts and information boxes, and the gentle blue pastel coloured headlines invite one in. It is well referenced and considers the endocrinology and pathophysiology of fasting, along with pharmacological and non-pharmacological aspects. The role of pre-fasting counselling by the physician is emphasised and it introduces the useful concept of risk stratification. The pharmacology of various medications is discussed along with effects, suitability and the pros and cons with regard to use during fasting in Ramadan. The information is bang up-to-date with a whole chapter dedicated to the incretins.
The book is upbeat about the manageability of diabetes during fasting and there are separate chapters devoted to Type 1 Diabetes, Type 2 Diabetes and insulin. There are chapters on children and adolescents, women, the elderly, and the comorbidities are not neglected, all of which make for a comprehensive reference source and a fascinating read.

Today, the Brooklyn Bridge opened to the public for the very first time in 1883. It took fourteen years to construct, and the project claimed the lives of 27 people. It remains one of the enduring architectural landmarks of New York City.
Thousands of New Yorkers attended the dedication ceremony, presided over by president Chester A. Arthur and New York governor Grover Cleveland.
The Brooklyn Bridge was designed by John A. Roebling. At the time of its opening, it was the largest suspension bridge in the world. Roebling was German by birth, and immigrated to Pennsylvania when he was 25. After a failed attempt at farming, he moved to Harrisburg to work as a civil engineer and then established a wire-cable factory.
Roebling was a pioneer suspension bridge designer. Suspension bridges were already in use, but were known for failing under stress. They were frail, and could collapse if they bore too much weight or if the wind blew too fiercely.
Roebling introduced the idea of a web truss added to either side of the bridge's roadway, to stabilize it. He implemented this idea in the Niagara Gorge and Ohio River bridges. New York State was impressed enough to accept his design for the Brooklyn Bridge. It was to span 1,595 feet. It would be the first suspension bridge ever built out of steel.
Unfortunatley, Roebling died shortly before construction on the bridge began in 1869. While taking compass readings across the East River, a boat smashed into his foot and destroyed his toes. Tetanus killed him three weeks later.
His son, Washington A. Roebling, took command. The Brooklyn Bridge's construction was highly dangerous. More than a hundred workers were stricken with compression sickness (also called the bends) from laying granite foundations underwater. Many more workers died from fires and collapses.
By 1883, major construction on the Bridge was finished. Emily Roebling enjoyed the first ride over the bridge, holding a rooster in her lap. The rooster was then a symbol of victory.
Over the course of the next day, 250,000 people walked the bridge, on a pedestrian roadway that Roebling built above the roadway.
The Brooklyn Bridge was named "the eighth wonder of the world" in the press. It directly led to Brooklyn being incorporated into New York City, along with Staten Island and a few outlying farm towns.

Melissa Marr returns to faery in a dramatic story of the precarious space between two worlds—and the people who must thrive there. The combination of ethereal fae powers, tumultuous romance, and a bloodthirsty faery queen will have longtime fans and new readers alike at the edge of their seats.
Lilywhite Abernathy is a criminal—she's half human, half fae, and since the time before she was born her very blood has been illegal. A war has been raging between humans and faeries, and the Queen of Blood and Rage, ruler of the fae courts, wants to avenge the tragic death of her heir due to the actions of reckless humans.
Lily's father has always shielded her from the truth, but when she's sent to the prestigious St. Columba's school, she's delivered straight into the arms of a fae Sleeper cell—the Black Diamonds. The Diamonds are planted in the human world as the sons and daughters of the most influential families, and tasked with destroying it from within. Against her will, Lilywhite's been chosen to join them . . . and even the romantic attention of the fae rock singer Creed Morrison isn't enough to keep Lily from wanting to run back to the familiar world she knows.

Athanasius Schneider, född 7 april 1961 i Tokmok, är en romersk-katolsk biskop. Han är sedan år 2011 hjälpbiskop i stiftet Astana i Kazakstan. Schneider, som prästvigdes 1990, tillhör det Heliga Korsets regularklerker (O.R.C.).

Biografi
Anton Schneiders föräldrar var etniska tyskar från Odessa i dagens Ukraina. Efter andra världskriget deporterades de till ett Gulag-läger i Krasnokamsk i Ural. Där blev familjen involverad i den underjordiska Kyrkan. Schneiders mor Maria var en av dem som gömde den ukrainske prästen Oleksa Zaryckyj, som senare led martyrdöden. Familjen Schneider frigavs sedermera ur lägret och flyttade till Estniska SSR. År 1973 emigrerade de till Västtyskland.

År 1982 blev Anton Schneider medlem av Heliga Korsets regularklerker och tog i samband med detta ordensnamnet Athanasius. Han prästvigdes 1990 och började 1999 att undervisa i patristik vid prästseminariet i Karaganda i Kazakstan. År 2006 blev Schneider vigd till biskop i Peterskyrkan av kardinal Angelo Sodano och tjänstgjorde som hjälpbiskop av Karaganda. Fem år senare, 2011, överflyttades han till ärkestiftet i Astana. Schneider är därutöver titulärbiskop av Celerina samt generalsekreterare för Kazakstans biskopskonferens.

Dominus est
Biskop Schneider förfäktar det traditionella sättet att ta emot den heliga Kommunionen, det vill säga knäböjande och på tungan. Detta utvecklar han i boken Dominus est, utgiven 2008. Schneider uppmanar katoliker, vilka i sanning tror att det är Kristi kropp de tar emot i kommunionen att knäböja och ta emot den på tungan.

The Government of Maharashtra (GoM) through Government of India (GoI) has received a loan from the International Development Association (IDA) for implementation of Maharashtra Agricultural Competitiveness Project (MACP).
The Project Development objective of the MACP is to increase the productivity, profitability and market access of the farming community in Maharashtra. This would be achieved by providing farmers with technical knowledge, market intelligence and market networks to support diversification and intensification of agriculture production aimed at responding to market demand. Farmers will also be assisted in establishing farmer organizations, developing alternative market channels outside of the regulated markets and in supporting the modernization of promising traditional wholesale markets. The project has three components viz., (i) Intensification and diversification of market led production; (ii) Improving Farmer access to Markets by Promoting alternative Markets and Modernizing existing APMC, and (iii) project coordination and management.
Intensification and diversification of market led production: By providing market led agriculture technology transfer to improve productivity and quality production and market information and marketing intelligence, agribusiness opportunities through agribusiness promotion facility and livestock improvement through livestock support services.
Improving Farmer access to Markets by Promoting alternative Markets and Modernizing existing APMC: By promoting alternative marketing systems involving farmers in the formation of producer groups, their associations, developing Farmers Common Service Centre (FCSC), introducing E-Marketing platform with the help of commodity exchanges, by producing warehouse receipt financing to overcome price risk and to provide moderate improvement in Rural Haats. Besides modernization of selected APMCs and Livestock Markets.
Project management: Would help to ensure effective project management at the state and district levels, and support information and logistics, communications, project related consultancies and monitoring and evaluation.
The duration of project is six years and cost of project is Rs 703.95 crores. The funds contribution for project by World Bank (WB) through Central Govt. is 65.5% of total fund; the State Government contributes 7.3% and Beneficiary contribution 27.1% of the total.
The project would be implemented across the whole State. However the implementation would be undertaken in three phases, with 10, 11 and 12 districts in phase I, II and III, respectively. The Project is being implemented in Ten (10) Districts of Phase I during financial year 2011-2012. The Project involves fund flow to three line departments and autonomous bodies. The three line departments involved are Dept. of Agriculture, Dept. of Co-operation & Marketing and Dept. of Animal Husbandry. The Co-operation and Marketing Department is the Nodal Department. For day to day management of the Project the Project Coordination Unit (PCU) has been set up at Pune. Similarly, Project Implementation Units (PIUs) have been set up for each of the line department to monitor and supervise the implementation of the activities pertaining to the concerned departments.
The Finance Department of the GoM will initially provide budgetary grants to Co-operation and Marketing Department, which will further reallocate the funds to the Agriculture Department and the Animal Husbandry Department.

Client: Solicitors for owners
Situation: The houses are situated on a sloping site, with the swimming pools at basement level, with their roofs providing garden terraces at the rear of the existing houses. After the first winter in service, rainwater penetration and condensation from the cold roof construction caused damp patches to appear on the swimming pool ceiling, which worsened and lead to partial ceiling collapse.The primary defects were an inadequate waterproof membrane to the terrace, inadequate drainage of the waterproof membrane and the lack of an adequate vapour barrier below the structural deck.
Action: Probyn Miers was appointed as architect to identify and analyse the defects and to consider alternative strategies for remedial works, including inverted roofs and pressurised roofs, and their respective advantages and disadvantages.
Result: The case was settled by negotiation with the architect.
Client: Building insurer
Situation: A dispute arose between a property owner and a building insurer about the scope and level of losses covered by an insurance policy following the discovery of extensive defects in a recently purchased house. Probyn Miers was required to provide an opinion on standards achieved in design and workmanship, and to analyse a range of defects and areas of damage.
Result: The case settled before trial.
Client: Local authority
Situation: This case concerned delayed completion and increased costs in the refurbishment and extension of a local authority leisure centre, involving employer's claims against the architect (for alleged late and incomplete design information) and against the contractor, including disagreement over the scope of services to be provided by the architect and about the standard of the lead consultant's advice on procurement and buildability.
Action: Probyn Miers was required to provide an opinion on the scope of the architect's services, and the standards achieved in design, workmanship and contract administration.
Client: Property owner through his solicitor.
Situation: The project was a large extension to a detached house on a secluded, heavily wooded site. The additional accommodation included a living room, a guest bedroom suite, a double garage, a gym and a swimming pool with changing and shower facilities. The design was geometrically complex and incorporated several levels to take account of the natural slope of the site.Water ingress was apparent in several locations from the time the building was handed over and occupied. When roof coverings were removed to give access to rectify the leaks it was discovered that further significant deterioration was occurring within the roof construction because of the effects of condensation.In addition damp penetration became apparent in several areas and the property owner discovered that significant voids that had been formed beneath the floors of the store room, the garage and part of the gym, had no provision for natural ventilation.
Action: Probyn Miers carried out a site inspection and prepared a preliminary report. The purpose of the report at this stage is to assist the property owner in settlement discussions and negotiations with the Architect. It concluded that: i), the type of roof construction specified was not suitable for use as part of a swimming pool enclosure, ii), the detailed design of the roof would not prevent condensation or water penetration and would make effective maintenance impracticable, iii), the voids beneath the floors of the store room, the garage and part of the gym had been designed in such a way as to prevent the provision of natural ventilation, iv), the system of land drainage appears to be inadequate, and v), the design did not include an effective means of preventing the ingress of water from the ground.
Result: Awaiting further instructions as of 08 April 2013.

One night in Mumbai, I got a call from Radhanath Swami. He was amidst his North American book tour, to promote the US trade release of his autobiography The Journey Home. Visiting most major cities including San Francisco, Los Angeles, New York, Chicago, Seattle, Portland, Dallas, Houston, and Vancouver, he also gave media interviews for radio, television, newspapers and magazines.
I had worked on the design and layout of his autobiography The Journey Home. I remembered that photo distinctly.
"One side of me wants to go and hide in that cave right now," said Radhanath Swami.
I felt special. I had heard his heart speak.
It wasn't for popularity or self-aggrandizement that he was on a book tour. But that was the price he had to pay to reach more people with the wisdom he had gained through his travels.
Nobody knew me better that Bhakti Tirtha Swami. He knew the details of my quest and also my hesitation to write about them. One day he clasped my hand, gazed into my eyes and said, "This is not your story. It is a tale about how God led a young boy onto an amazing journey to seek the inner secrets that lie within all of us. Don't be miserly. Share what has been given to you." His voice choked up and a tear streaked down his ebony cheek. "Promise me," he said, "here on my deathbed, that you will write the story." A few days later, on June 27, 2005, he passed from this world. This book is my attempt to honor his wish.
Such incidents demonstrates the simple living of Radhanath Swami. Thanks for sharing it.
Amazing article. Thank you so much for sharing. This article shows the real heart of Radhanath Swami and his deep spiritual friendship.
wonderful article and thank you for sharing it with all of us.
mesmerizing experience of a very humble pure soul of the Lord, Maharaj ki Jai!


Since its inception in 1960, the Masters Par-3 Contest has never been cancelled. It may have been temporarily postponed to deal with passing weather. It may have even been cut short. However, in every year it has been played, the Masters Par-3 Contest has seen a winner.
The Wednesday weather forecast for the Par-3 Contest doesn't look good, with severe weather expected -- practically guaranteed -- starting mid-morning at Augusta National Golf Club. That severe weather forced officials to force patrons to abandon the property for a time on Wednesday morning.
However, the Masters announced that the gates will re-open at 12:30 p.m., at which time the Par-3 Contest would start. That never happened.
It's well known that a Masters Par-3 Contest winner has never gone on to win the green jacket that next Sunday as Masters champion. So, maybe pray for more rain?

Against simpler times
Years ago, I wrote about a hypothetical 2013 Queer Feminist Agenda for games. What an innocent time that was! Back then, I argued that we needed to pursue industry-wide reform, build-up theories of queer games, and combat gay apathy about queer politics.
Obviously a lot of that didn't really pan out, and now the world feels totally different: since 2013, Gamergate, Ferguson, Pulse, and Trump all happened, to say the least. Many people have now left video games for greener pastures, or have taken on more urgent politics beyond games... and anyway, Twitter just feels so much more stressful now. It's honestly kind of hard for me to still care about video games like I did back then. (Did we really use Twitter to argue about formalism in games? That's what we used Twitter for? Wow.)
Four years ago, we were talking about #1ReasonWhy, and GDC started the Advocacy track. Did any systemic reform actually happen? Did the industry end up hiring and retaining more women and black people? Did it get better for minorities? Some good-intentioned straight white male allies probably believe that "we won" because several games at E3 have black women in them. But beyond video game characters, I still feel like we're still having the same old conversations about the same old basic shit. The "discourse" feels extremely stagnated. It's hard to feel like there's any progress when every new Milkshake Duck of the Month pulls us back to basic questions like "wait why is it bad to harass women again?" and then suddenly the gamers are torn between supporting women / minorities vs. liking games about Blade Runner. As I've argued before, games probably aren't going to get "better" through this kind of desperate moral math.
Four years ago, we were also talking about a "queer games scene" and thinking about how to direct that momentum. For a variety of reasons, that energy ended up dissipating. On the plus side, there are definitely more people doing this work now, which is good, but there's also much less appetite for concentrating it into a "scene", which hurts our visibility and solidarity. Well, at least there's now a loose body of thinking and theory about queerness in games? I contributed to a new book literally called Queer Game Studies, which came out of the first Queerness and Games conference in 2013. When people ask what "queer games" are, I can now point to that book and event, even though it doesn't really feel so urgent to me anymore.
These days, I imagine a lot of us are very tired and disappointed, and I get it, and yeah I feel it too.
But however we feel, we definitely shouldn't nostalgize that supposedly simpler time, that now-mythical era before monthly milkshake ducks and anime frog nazis. That promise of 2013 (or 2012, or 2011, or 2010, etc.) is long gone and we can never go back. Instead, we must forge new kinds of promises and new kinds of trust.
We're still alive. We can still make new energy, new movements, and new alignments. And yeah, it won't feel the same. It won't feel like what we had before, or even what we think we had before. But I promise you, at the very least, whatever it is -- it will be ours.
