BIGGEST RISK with Mark Myers 0
Mark Myers, what is the biggest risk?
Mark Myers
Thank you for that question. And it's a good one. And I'm glad that you opened up the box to not make it have to be an insurance Specific because that's a, as you know, very well. Risk is is huge and mitigation and transfer of risk is really important. But I would say in my context, in the in the way that I help business owners or the way that I help individuals that are, you know, transferring assets or selling appreciated assets, it's the risk that you take for not slowing down. And looking at how to keep more of your profit is huge. Because if you think about every single year, you're earning income as a business owner, if you're overpaying your taxes, if you're really if you're paying retail, on your taxes, and you have no legal obligation to pay retail tax, you can pay wholesale tax, you know, Judge Learned Hand said it best he said, You know, there are two tax systems in America, one for the informed, one for the uninformed, both are legal. So I think the biggest risk is to not take the time to get help and understand the and the informed area of tax law, because every single day, every single week, every single year that you're earning income, you could be paying 2030 40% more than you should to the IRS when you don't have to. So I think that's the biggest risk is overlooking profit that you you're, you know, you don't even realize is there money that you really should be keeping that you don't realize it's there, because you're not taking the time to spin and focus on that risk. Right. So that's really I think the most important risk that people that business owner should look at is where can they mitigate taxes? And where can they keep more of their profit in their in their pocket?

BIGGEST RISK with Dave Spooner 0
I'd like to ask you, Dave Spooner, what is the BIGGEST RISK?
Dave Spooner
It's a great question. It's something we think and talk about a lot, you know, especially as a small company. We were founded four and a half years ago now a little over four and a half years ago now. And we're at an inflection point, kind of an extended inflection point where we've grown really Really quickly and we're continuing to grow. And it's really accelerating more and more people are finding us, more and more landlords are giving us great reviews online, we're the word is out that Innago is a premier product for small to midsize landlords. And we're growing faster than we've ever gone before by exponential figures, right, which is great. It's very exciting. But the risk that comes with that is in growing the team, right and building our team internally, in finding great employees, it's easier to have quality control on your team when it's just you and five other people 10 other people 15 other people, but as it grows beyond that, it becomes harder and harder. And that's where we are right now where we're growing pretty rapidly. And we're expanding our team and trying to find good talent and making sure that that talent is acclimated effectively, so that they're happy so that they enjoy working here, so that they feel fulfilled, but they're also providing great value to the to the rest of the team and to our clients. That's our that's our biggest risk right now. It's just continuing to find good team now team members. And to relate that back to real estate. I think that's ultimately a place that landlords and real estate investors get to right, if you're purchasing your first property, your first couple properties, it's easy to control a lot of that stuff, it's easy to do quality control, but as you grow bigger, you have to have a great team, right? You got to have a good broker, you got to have a good a good insurance guy, of course, right? You got to have a good lawyer on your team, maybe a tax guy, a CPA, maybe you hire internally, right? You hire your own property manager, it's the same risk that other folks have. We're experiencing it on a bigger scale right now. And that's, that's our biggest risk, something we think about a lot, something we talk about a lot. So we're gonna make sure to mitigate as much as possible.
Smaller Markets Low Risk Retail Success with Yoel Mayerfeld - CRE PN #314 0
Today, my guest is Yoel Mayerfeld. Yoel is the CO CEO with Chase Properties, where he oversees the company's asset management and financing. Mr. Mayerfeld joined Chase Properties as the Director of Finance in 2005. And in just a minute, we're going to speak with Yoel about a winning investment in retail. While others have been quick to move away from the asset class Chase has been thriving in retail.
BIGGEST RISK with Yoel Mayerfeld 0
If you're willing, I'd like to ask you, Yoel Mayerfeld, what is the BIGGEST RISK?
Yoel Mayerfeld
Sure. Well answer in a couple of ways. And risk, as I mentioned, from, you know, how I was trained in in my professional life is really what I'm always first focused on, you know, whenever we're looking at an opportunity. I'm always spending a lot more time on what can go wrong than what can go right. Because capital preservation is our sort of number one goal. From a you know, I would I was looking at my calendar yesterday and saw that we had this podcast and Robbie, who set this up with you wrote in the notes that one question you like to ask is about risk. I should be I should be repair at night, and I happen to be talking to a friend of mine. It's a CEO of a large real estate company public read, and I said, Oh, you know, I, I'm interested in what I'm going to say about what my largest, what I think the biggest risk in this industry is what do you think the biggest risk is? And he said, Well, for sure, the biggest risk is capital markets, freezing up, because whenever that happens, it really puts us in, in a bind. And to be able to, to borrow, which we saw, you know, certainly after the oh eight recession and during COVID. But for me, that isn't at all, what I think has the biggest risk and I think part of that is our strategy, which one thing I didn't get into is that we are low leverage borrowers, which I think differentiates us. So a even when capital markets are tight, for our lower loan to value needs. Usually there's more room for us than for others. Our bankers always tell us they can sleep at night with us better than they can sleep at night with many of their other real estate borrowers. So I just thought that was interesting. I think that would be what a lot of Retail real estate or real estate investors in general would say it's the biggest risk. But for us, we're so focused on the real estate, and it performing with or without debt, we're really not about the financial engineering part of real estate, which, at these low cap rates, I think every real estate investor has had to become somewhat more of a financial engineering, trade than a real estate is a real estate great trade, which is where we really try to stick with. So. So for us, that wouldn't be it for us really on our answer on the retail side, which has been the bulk of our experience and our, in our investment. The biggest risk is the, you know, we can't perform well, for attendance don't perform well. So our biggest risk is, is is these retailers, not figuring it out. And and right now they've been, you know, our portfolio, the sales that tenants report to us are stronger than they've been even pre COVID. They're figuring out their integration of bricks and mortar and online. So they're doing that well. But the day that they don't, the day that they they let you know, competition like Amazon, innovate quicker, you know, figure it out in a way that that puts them at a disadvantage. That's a big risk to us, we need our our tenants to do well. So that's on a more micro to the retail aspect for for more of a macro perspective, as real estate investors generally, which is what we are, I would say it's the risk of the unknown. After living through COVID, you know, you mentioned insurance, you know, we have what we feel is, you know, really good insurance for our portfolio and thought of every scenario. You know, we weren't covered for lack of rent during COVID, when your retailers couldn't pay. So I think the unknown is the biggest risk. So the mitigant, I would say, has has been, our diverse diversification is sort of like the answer for all kinds of risk for investing. And adding multifamily and industrial was a huge help now, for COVID. Because our retailers couldn't pay rent during COVID, because their stores were closed. Our industrial properties all paid rent, our multifamily properties all paid rent. So that diversification was huge for for during that three month period of COVID, that helped us sleep better at night.
Now, even the retail properties it was it was very temporary, and it was a stressful few months when those stores were closed, but we defer the rents for most of our retailers, because our lenders allowed us to defer our loan payments. So all worked out fine. But having that diversification was really a mitigate for, for us, globally. And then the diversification even in within our retail portfolio of mixed geographies, mixed tenants for different credits, so that when, you know, the Siena brands struggled and dress barn closed, it was such a tiny percentage of all of our tenancy that it was very easy to to move beyond that fill, fill some of those dress barns and most of our portfolio continue to thrive. So we were Okay, so the answer to mitigating some of these risks that I think about it continues to be diversification, which has really helped us.
Investor Thoughts Attract Success or Failure with Dr Hank - CRE PN #313 0
Today, my guest is Dr. Hank, Dr. Hank is a mental scientist and a wealth maker who helps people become their greatest possibility. And in just a minute, we're gonna speak with Dr. Hank about the power of your thoughts and how they affect your outcome.
BIGGEST RISK with Dr Hank 0
But take a look and identify what what you consider to be the BIGGEST RISK? Yeah, again, for clarification, I'm not necessarily looking for an insurance related answer. Yeah, yeah. If you're
Dr Hank
Don't worry, you're not gonna get one.
Yeah. Well, that's, that's we're now looking for one second. That's good.
Yeah, we're in alignment my friend. Yeah, that actually, so so what you explain, for example, as risks, that those are very practical steps, and, you know, very good steps on to avoid risk insurance, it's an excellent way. And I have insurance. And again, it is the name of the game. You know, there's health insurances ways to insure your money, and, you know, all kinds of wonderful, wonderful thing. So I'm all for insurance. However, an answer to your question, the biggest risks that any of us can take, is to get disconnected with our higher power. When we fully disconnected, you actually never can fully disconnect. But when you disconnect enough, away from your higher power, that that's where you commit suicide. So the greatest risk is being disconnected because then you you don't have to worry about insurance, you're not here anymore. But more importantly, I'm what we want, is when you're connected, that you will be guided to, for example, this show, Derek, you're amazing Joe, and how to help people whether it's, you know, in this particular show on mindset, now powerful and important it is, you know, or on insurance that you know, if you don't have so you will be led to people circumstances, events, and thoughts, your own thoughts, that will lead you to the perfect light, the light that you're looking forward to have. So the biggest risk is to rely on just your analytical mind. And the and the opposite of that I want you to do that is to get connected. And you do that through breathing your breath. Deep breaths is a great way to get connected through meditation to get connected, to quiet your mind to do things such as the joy shop, that will get you connected, and you will literally be given all the answers to where there won't be any risk in your life at all. I love it. That's great.
Commercial Real Estate Capital Gains Tax Deferred with Brett Swarts - CRE PN #312 0

And in just a minute, we're gonna speak with Brett about Deferred Sales Trust.
BIGGEST RISK with Brett Swarts 0
'd like to ask you, Brett Swarts, what is the BIGGEST RISK?
Brett Swarts
Sure, so I'm gonna apply it to the Deferred Sales Trust cuz we didn't actually touch on this, but I think this is really important. So it has to do with asset protection, right? So the more you own and the more you own in your own name and or that's not an LLC or that doesn't have proper insurance, the more you could be liable and have higher risk of somebody suing you and taking that asset okay. So by essence, owner's ownership, and Rockefeller said it well he said own nothing control Everything right? And and the idea was asset protection. So how do you lower risk? Well, on the deferred sales trust, guess what, you become the lender. You don't own the trust. So what you don't own, they can't take from you. Right by default. Now, could a creditor, you know, if they get a judgment against you? And could they potentially get the income off of the trust? Yeah, that's that's common. Right. But could they force the the the ownership, that's not the person that they got the judgment against? to do anything there? No, because they don't own it. So we do love that about the deferred sales trust, who does take and mitigate some of the risk? So I think part of the answer is the risk of just lots of ownership. Instructors are better not insured in a proper way that could be subject to judgments. If there's a way to mitigate that, I think that's that's really good. And I think that's probably the biggest risk I can think for this conversation here. That makes sense Darrin?

Dash Snow Memorial Exhibition at Deitch Projects NYC
By Mark Westall • 21 July 2009
Following the sudden passing of renowned artist Dash Snow, a memorial exhibition has been prepared in his honor at Deitch Projects. Peres Projects has more information on this exhibition which opens on July 21 and one that should be well coveted given the artists impact on culture.
We thought it would be important and helpful to have an open memorial exhibition for Dash's community in New York City. We are asking Dash's community of friends to participate in an exhibition that would include photographs or video of Dash; works of art made for Dash or in memory of him; a small group of works by Dash in various media (just for exhibition); and an open wall where friends or admirers from the general public could write, paint, or paste something up on the wall. The outside of the gallery will feature a large recreation by his friends of his tag.
We anticipate opening to the public as early as Tuesday, July 21 at the 76 Grand Street gallery of Deitch Projects. The show would remain on view through mid-August. If you would like to participate in this exhibition by lending or creating artworks, please contact Kathy Grayson at Deitch Projects: 212 343 7300, kathy@deitch.com. We ask artists/friends who want to participate to bring artworks by the gallery beginning this Saturday, July 18th through Monday July 20th to begin installation that Tuesday. Artists are welcome to bring additional works anytime, however, that can be installed during the run of the show as well. All are welcome. Please pass this on to people you think would like to know about it.

Clearing the Family Name... Again
CBN.com - A good name is to be more desired than great wealth, Favor is better than silver and gold (Proverbs 22:1, NASB).
You can't argue with that kind of wise statement taken from the Bible. But what if there was a way to get both riches and a good reputation?
Welcome to the world of Benjamin Franklin Gates in another National Treasure adventure called Book of Secrets. The self-proclaimed 'treasure protector' rejoins techno-wizard Riley Poole, charming love interest Abigail Chase, and history professor/father Patrick Gates on another search to raise the Gates' name from the ashes of ill repute.
Apparently, missing pages of the John Wilkes Booth diary list one of Ben's ancestors as a co-conspirator in the plot to assassinate Lincoln, sending the adventuresome crew to historical landmarks both in the United States and abroad to find the clues that will not only unshackle the family name once again, but also unlock the mystery of more hidden treasure—a legendary City of Gold.
From Shame to Fame
In the first National Treasure, the Gates name was thickly mired in shame because the supposed Knights Templar treasure, which was the life pursuit of history professor Patrick Gates for some 20 years and is the same passion of his son, Ben, a treasure seeker steeped in American History, had not been recovered. That fact had made the Gates boys the laughing stock of the academic world.
So deeply did that sense of shame remain, that Ben Gates, after finding the ship that he believed held the key to the treasure, proclaimed to his soon-to-be arch rival, Ian, "I'm just glad I'm not as crazy as everyone says or said my dad was or my granddad or my great granddad."
Then, later when Ben appeared at the door of his estranged father seeking refuge after stealing the Declaration of Independence, he was met with unwelcome sarcasm. When Ben asked for the Silence Dogood letters, Patrick Gates retorted, "I know, I am the family kook," and was initially reticent to help his son. Seeing his father's angst, Ben commented, "Maybe that's the real Gates family legacy—sons who disappoint their fathers."
Eventually, Patrick Gates joined his son to uncover the mystery and locate the treasure. Proud of his son's accomplishments, Patrick Gates said passionately, "You did it, Ben, for all of us—your grandfather and all of us! And I've never been so happy to be proved wrong."
Thus, our hero got redeemed. The Gates' slate was wiped clean, and the family went from "crazy" to very wealthy historical geniuses.
But now it's time for round two. The Gates ancestral line has been accused of being involved in a plot to kill President Lincoln. Ben Gates is called upon once again to salvage the family reputation from the wreckage in the sequel, National Treasure: Book of Secrets
In this second film, there is not the same degree of desperation to rectify the accusations like there was in the original movie. As Nicolas Cage said in a press junket for the film, speaking about his role of Ben Gates, "I think the weight has been taken off the character. He has been accepted academically. He is not considered a whacko anymore from the first movie."
However, we can still see the passion Ben has to reclaim his family's rightful standing in the history books as being one of honor and integrity, not as unpatriotic murderers.
"He [Ben Gates] really believes in a chivalrous way that everything he is is on account of his ancestors," noted Cage. "They are not dead to him. They are still there with him, and he is honoring them."
And so begins a new adventure, one that will redeem the family again and prove to be monetarily satisfying as well.
As the movie tagline prompts, "A man only has one lifetime, but history can remember you forever."
Restoring Our Reputation
What compels us to want to watch these self-vindicating thrillers? What is it in us that enjoys watching our heroes set the record straight?
I think there is something universal in the character of Ben Gates. We can relate to this man and his family who have been unjustly snubbed, because more than likely we have experienced much the same on a smaller scale. Just recall the name-calling episodes we endured on the playground as children. We have often lived driven lives as Ben has done to overcome those painful insults. And now, we want to leave a legacy of valor.
It is natural when we are insulted, when our reputation is questioned, to fight back and prove everyone wrong. We roll up our sleeves as if to say, 'I'll show them!' and off we go fighting the fight to redeem ourselves.
Regaining honor is not in itself a bad thing, but when it becomes an obsession, when it becomes an identity definer, we must ask ourselves, will we ever get to the point where we can simply rest in knowing who we are, no matter what dirt gets dug up about our relatives, no matter what mud gets slung at us personally?
Jesus, in the height of being unjustly vilified as a fraud before His death on the Cross, is a perfect example of a better way: "And while He was being accused by the chief priests and elders, He did not answer" (Matthew 27:12, NASB).
Jesus had ultimate authority to put those men in their place. He had the complete right to stand up for Himself and shout, "Hey, do you know who My Father is? Do you know who I am? How dare you blaspheme the name of God!" Instead, He remained silent.
Why? Because He knew who He was. And it didn't matter what anyone else thought. He was not defined by His peers. He was not defined by His ancestors. He was only defined by the relationship He had with God, and that relationship with secure. He was at complete peace with Himself.
I think in this example there is a lesson for all of us to learn. As much as it is right to admire someone for righting wrongs, eventually, there will come a point when that same individual must let go of the offense. We can't beat a dead horse any longer. We need not keep exhausting ourselves to regain approval, especially if we have come to a saving knowledge of Jesus Christ. If we have chosen to make Him our Lord and Savior, it isn't about us anyway. We are hidden in Him and now our reputation rests with Him.
When people insult us, we don't need to go on a campaign to save our name from ill repute. Jesus already did all that. Through the Cross, He rescued our reputation as sinners separated from God and deserving of His wrath so that we could become known as His friends, His children, co-heirs with Christ, the priesthood of believers. How's that for a redeemed reputation?
No amount of approval from others or wealth, fame, or notoriety could ever supersede everything God has already done for us. For, as the Bible tells us, "…you were not redeemed with perishable things like silver or gold from your futile way of life inherited from your forefathers, but with precious blood, as of a lamb unblemished and spotless, the blood of Christ" (1 Peter 1:18-19, NASB).
Instead of trusting our own great intelligence, instead of trusting in our possessions or our wealth, we need only rest in our relationship with Jesus to see us through. He will vindicate us: "Anyone who trusts in him will never be put to shame" (Romans 10:11, NIV).

Recalls That May Affect Your Diet
Food recalls have become more and more common lately as a result of food safety precaution increases occurring in the United States. Warm summer weather also provides the perfect environment for bacteria growth, which often times leads to food spoilage and contamination. In the last 30 days, four popular food items were recalled:
Tuna used by the popular AFC sushi company is being recalled due to potential salmonella infection in yellowfin tuna used in these packages. AFC sushi is sold at many popular stores throughout Georgia, including Kroger, Walmart, Publix, and even on some college campuses. Osamu Corporation recalled this yellowfin tuna after two salmonella illnesses reported in Minnesota. If you recently purchased sushi distributed by AFC, contact the store where you purchased it. They should be able to tell you whether the product you bought was removed from shelves. If so, it is unsafe to consume.
Kroger Spices
Another salmonella scare occurred when a sample of Kroger's popular garlic powder tested positive last month. Kroger has since recalled every spice processed by the equipment used to package the garlic powder, which includes Kroger Ground Cinnamon, Kroger Coarse Ground Black Pepper, and Kroger Bac'n Buds. Krogers is offering safe replacements or full refunds on recalled spices. There have not yet been any reported illnesses as a result of the salmonella contamination, but those who have consumed these products should stay alert for signs of foodborne illnesses. These may include fever, diarrhea, and cramps from 12-72 hours after being infected.
Kraft American Cheese Slices
Kraft recalled 36,000 cases of individually wrapped sliced American cheese earlier this month. The Kraft Singles American and White American cheeses are said to pose a choking hazard because of faulty wrappers. These wrappers have a thin strip that sometimes remains on the slices of cheese after the rest is removed, according to 10 complaints. Affected packages will have "Best By" dates of 12/29/2015 – 1/4/16 and manufacturing codes S54 or S55.
Kraft Oscar Mayer Turkey Bacon
Kraft Heinz Food Company is also recalling approximately 2 million pounds of Oscar Mayer turkey bacon. The affected meats may spoil before the expiration dates printed on their packaging. While the overall health risk is said to be low, the company felt the need to recall the products to prevent health hazards.

Will DAO be a way for the freedom of the Wikileaks founder?
AssangeDao will gather money to aid pay Julian Assange's legal bills and run public awareness campaigns about justice systems' fundamental failures: According to AssangeDAO website
A group of people called AssangeDAO has formed a decentralised autonomous organisation (DAO) to attempt to rescue Julian Assange. Julian Assange is the Wikileaks founder and campaigner who is now imprisoned in the UK.
The US government is looking into him after he published a series of 2010 Army intelligence disclosures that he received from Chelsea Manning. Because of his participation in leaking secret American intelligence information, the US wants Assange extradited to the US.
Assange is now detained in the London prison Belmarsh, where the whistleblower has been since 2019. Assangedao intends to bring attention to the corruption surrounding Assange's case and assist in his release.
The aim, according to the group's website, is to keep up the fight for Julian Assange. The website assangedao.org describes Julian Assange's freedom. The website also has a quotation from Assange that reads, "One of the finest ways to accomplish justice is to expose injustice."
Using current ethereum (ETH) currency rates, the Assange-centric DAO has collected 2,533.91 ether, or nearly USD 7.5 million. The DAO's goal is to raise ethereum in exchange for the $JUSTICE governance token, which will be used to bid on a 1/1 NFT.
According to the group's DAO campaign on juicebox.money, the non-fungible token (NFT) art was created by digital artist Pak in conjunction with Julian Assange. The Assange family has backed the initiative, according to the Assangedao team, and "has worked closely with the DAO."
Will the DAO and NFT help Wikileaks founder. Let's wait and watch.

That's right, your mind. It's called the Mind/Body connection. In a nutshell, what you believe in your mind can influence things in your body.
It's known that anxiety and stress can make any illness worse. Anxiety can make pain feel worse, lower defences that allow a cold virus to take hold, and can aid in raising your blood pressure. Sometimes the simple act of relaxing can do wonders for your health. That's all part of the mind/body connection.
You've heard of the "placebo effect" haven't you? That's when you get better thinking you're taking a certain medication, only to find out you were really taking a sugar pill. In almost all studies of medications, there's a certain percentage of people who improve taking the placebo. Why? Because they thought they were taking the real thing. They expected to feel better and they did.

Q: XSSFWorkbook in java I am using the XSSFWorkbook for reading the excel sheet data. When i entered the numbers with space after 10 digits and want to remove the space after numbers before saving. But trim(),replaceAll() - all these are not removing the spaces. How can i remove the space from the string "99999999 " after fetching using currentCell.getStringCellValue().
tried with trim(),replaceAll() methods and also stringUtils.trim()
phoneNumber = currentCell.getStringCellValue().replaceAll(" ","");
                            System.out.println(phoneNumber);
Expected is :  want to remove the space after the string "99999 " as "99999"
No error message but i am expecting "99999" but getting "99999 " after using all the mentioned methods.

A: Maybe the character behind your 99999 is not a default white space but some other horizontal white-space character, like non-breaking space for example.
You can trim all such horizontal white-space characters as described in this answer: https://stackoverflow.com/a/28295733/3915431.
Complete example using apache poi for reading Excel:
import java.io.FileInputStream;
import org.apache.poi.ss.usermodel.*;

class ReadExcel {

 public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {

  Workbook workbook  = WorkbookFactory.create(new FileInputStream("SAMPLE.xlsx"));
  DataFormatter dataFormatter = new DataFormatter();
  CreationHelper creationHelper = workbook.getCreationHelper();
  FormulaEvaluator formulaEvaluator = creationHelper.createFormulaEvaluator();

  Sheet sheet = workbook.getSheetAt(0);

  for (Row row : sheet) {
   for (Cell cell : row) {
    String cellContent = dataFormatter.formatCellValue(cell, formulaEvaluator);
    System.out.println("|"+cellContent+"|");
    cellContent = cellContent.trim(); // trims only default white-space
    System.out.println("|"+cellContent+"|");
    cellContent = cellContent.replaceAll("(^\\h*)|(\\h*$)",""); // trims all horizontal white-space characters
    System.out.println("|"+cellContent+"|");
   }
  }

  workbook.close();

 }
}

A: I tried reproduce your problem using a simple java class, but failed.
The trim() method for string is working fine. I believe there was something else in your code. Here my simple test.
class Scratch {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        String phoneNumber = "99999999999 ";
        System.out.println("before trim = " + phoneNumber.length());

        phoneNumber = phoneNumber.trim();
        System.out.println("after trim = " + phoneNumber.length());
    }
}

Result
before trim = 12
after trim = 11

A: Try using tostring, and try the bellow code.
Cell currentCell;

if(currentCell.getCellTypeEnum() == CellType.STRING) {
    String phoneNumber = currentCell.toString().trim();
    System.out.println(phoneNumber);
}

PLEASE NOTE: NEW DATE/TIME of JUNE 28 at 9PM!
As part of its 40th year anniversary season, BRIC has commissioned HEDERA, a monumental light installation by interdisciplinary New York-based Peruvian artist Grimanesa Amorós.
In celebration of HEDERA at the BRIC Celebrate Brooklyn! Festival this summer, a special reception with the artist will take place on Thursday, June 28 at 9PM, following the The Blues Project featuring Dorrance Dance with Toshi Reagon & BIGLovely show.
+ A brief discussion with artist Grimanesa Amorós, led by Elizabeth Ferrer, Vice President of Contemporary Art at BRIC.
+ Toast with the artist (a cash bar will be available during the event).
HEDERA will be on view from June 5 through August 11, and many thousands of visitors from Brooklyn and beyond will be able to interact with the sculpture. Measuring some 40 ft x 40 ft x 24 ft., the work is inspired by the form of the Bandshell and the natural beauty and grandeur of the surrounding park's landscape. Amorós states "HEDERA means ivy in Latin; my piece's overall structure was inspired by the natural beauty and grandeur of Prospect Park's plant life. For me, HEDERA is a romance with the unknown." Amorós has created a custom lighting sequence of flowing and pulsating red and white tubing that crowns the sculpture in light. LED tubes will both cover the structure and create an immersive environment for viewers who will freely walk underneath and around the work.
For more information on HEDERA, click here.
Grimanesa Amorós was born in Lima, Peru and lives and works in New York City. She is an interdisciplinary artist with diverse interests in the fields of social history, scientific research and critical theory, which have greatly influenced her work. Her works incorporate elements from sculpture, video, lighting, and technology to create site-specific light installations to engage architecture and create community. Amorós has exhibited in the United States, Europe, Asia, the Middle East, and Latin America.

Ex-Man City boss says Bolton's Ryder Cup bid is 'critical moment' for world golf
Ex-Man City boss backs Bolton Ryder Cup bid at Hulton Park
By Joseph Timan josephtiman Local Democracy Reporter
A FORMER Manchester City boss has described Bolton's bid to host the Ryder Cup as a "critical moment" for world sport.
Garry Cook told a government-appointed inspector that UK Sport, Sport England and crucially, the PGA European Tour, "love" and "support" the vision to bring the international golf tournament to Hulton Park.
He compared the economic benefits of the proposed development to that of Manchester City's investment in the deprived area that surrounds it which he oversaw as chief executive in 2008 when Sheikh Mansour bought the club.
Mr Cook, who also had a senior role at Nike, spoke in support of Peel L&P's plans to build the championship grade golf course and more than 1,000 homes at a public inquiry on Thursday.
He said: "Hulton Park is the right place. It is an opportunity that is unique. I am confident with my conversations that the Ryder Cup being awarded to England for 2030 or 2034, but only if a package of commitment is put forward that meets the European Tour's commercial and their venue and infrastructure requirements.
"Hulton Park could be that new North West world-class sports facility – but only of course, if planning permission is secured. Peel is the organisation that the European Tour have come to trust and rely upon for bringing to them a solution. They are uniquely placed to stand behind and deliver such an investment, bringing together the developers and all its constituents."
The sports executive said he has attended meetings with sports bodies and political leaders as an independent consultant for a variety of clients.
He was paid by Peel L&P's boss John Whittaker for a project on the branding of the company more than 18 months ago.
Mr Cook said that he is no longer retained by Peel L&P and stressed his personal "passion" for the project.
He added: "Manchester as a sporting brand is at an all-time high and it continues to grow ever stronger. My point is, a vision has to start somewhere, the impact is taken by everybody involved, but somebody has to take the lead, and somebody has to rally that support.
"I, for one, commend the Peel Group for getting us at least this far, for bringing us to this point which is in fact a critical moment, not only for Hulton, but also for England, Britain and the world of sport."
But Bolton South East MP Yasmin Qureshi offered a different view.
The Labour MP called for a "reality check", casting doubt over the chances that the Ryder Cup would ever be hosted in Bolton.
She said: "There's nothing more I want to see my town to become a city, my town to be on the world map. And the people of Bolton are brilliant people, hardworking people. But we also know the real world. And in the real world the kind of infrastructure you need for the Ryder Cup, it's just not physically possible."
Her comments were echoed by Westhoughton North and Chew Moor councillor Christine Wild.
The Conservative councillor described the 1,036 houses in the plan as the "sting in the tail" of the major development which she said looked "very desirable" when first proposed.
Ms Qureshi, who spoke at length about the impact the development would have on the area, said that residents do not believe that the existing highway network and proposed improvements such as a new link road, would be able to cope with the additional traffic, despite what authorities say.
The MP also told planning inspector Karen Ridge of the impact the development would have on parking, road safety and public transport.
She added: "The local schools here are already struggling massively – and the hospital. If this additional housing were created, that would push everything to breaking point."
Russell Harris QC, representing Peel L&P quizzed Ms Qureshi on her knowledge of other golf courses in the country which she claimed could host the Ryder Cup instead.
He also asked whether she knew how much the developer is proposing to contribute towards education and health services after she described it as a "piddly" amount.
The developer said it would contribute £15m in Section 106 obligations for education, transport, recreation and other local benefits if the plans are approved.
This includes £5m for primary and secondary school places and a site for a new primary school.
Peel L&P's claims its plans to transform the Hulton Park estate and host major golf tournaments have the potential to boost the local, regional and national economy by £1.2bn.

Hell on Wheels: Cullen is a Survivor
After this second week, I'm in-between on this show. I'm not in love with it, but there's nothing I hate about it, either. So, I'm sticking with it. What about you - have you tuned in yet? Have you already tuned out?
Hell on Wheels "Immoral Mathematics" (S01E02): The death scene where the Indians had the massacre of sorts in the first episode is being photographed... and they do it as graphically as possible... laying out extra bodies, sticking in more arrows, etc. [whoa, creepy!] Everyone is looking for the maps, but they're not found. They come across Bell's body in the woods, and find a pocketwatch with a photo of his wife inside, so there's an idea of whom to look for now. There's a $100 reward for Lily, but no word is given about the maps being missing. [these things must be very valuable...]
Back at Hell on Wheels, the workers are slaving away. Cullen is brought to Gunderson, a Norwegian whom people call a Swede, to be questioned about the recent murder. Cullen says he knows nothing about anyone having trouble with the deceased Johnson. Since there's no official laws or enforcement officers, Cullen goes to leave... and has a gun pulled on him in the process. He's locked up in a train car where he's told that he'll have a chance to confess to the crime. [grrrr. not a big fan of unjust situations.] Cullen tries to remove screws from the floorboards when Elam (the murderer) comes to talk to him, and asks if he will be testifying against him.
Photo Credit: Chris Large/AMC
The next morning, Gunderson comes to Cullen, eating breakfast in front of him. He shares a little about his past, and Cullen kicks the plate from his hands. [... that was ballsy!] There's no retaliation, though Cullen is told to make things right with his maker. [eeek!] Cullen is able to get the spoon, and uses it to remove a screw. That allows the floor board to come loose, so Cullen's shackles are no longer attached to anything. He then pops out a few more boards and escapes through the floor. He blends in with the crowd, though his hands are still cuffed.
Cullen walks into the ministerial tent and the guy covers for him. Cullen has Elam bust his shackles, then he heads to Durant's to ask for Johnson's job. He says that he did well in the army, though he was always outnumbered. He gives examples of things he's destroyed. He then brings up the fact that Durant smuggled cotton out of Mississippi, and that Durant needs help if he's going to finish the railroad. Gunderson comes by, and Durant announces that Cullen is the new foreman after all. [I actually don't know how this changes my opinions of Durant or Gunderson, but we know that Cullen is quite sly.]
[Other things that happened in this episode?] Lily is walking along a creek with the maps and sees some Native Americans on horseback in the woods. She's still quite tender as she crawls for cover behind a log. The Native Americans are gone when Lily wakes up, and she makes her way to their smouldered fire. She removed the arrow tip from her chest and stitches herself up. [ahhhh!] Lily envisions her late husband, then sees three birds circling overhead. The Native Americans see them too, and head for the area. Lily takes off for the woods again, where she's found, but not by those specific Native Americans! [hmmmm....]
Gunderson talks to the Irish brothers, and wants money for the tent where they've set up their movies. He asks for $2 a week, on Fridays, which is about half of their income. The Irish brothers take money from their mother's stack. [is this part of the show going anywhere?]

Nearly half a year after Carrie Fisher died after going into cardiac arrest while on a flight from London to Los Angeles, the L.A. County Medical Examiner's office confirms that the actress died of "sleep apnea and other undetermined factors."
Fisher, who passed away at the age of 60 on December 27, 2016, suffered from atherosclerotic heart disease, which, along with drug abuse, may have been other factors leading to her death.
"My mom battled drug addiction and mental illness her entire life. She ultimately died of it," Fisher's daughter, actress Billie Lourd, said in a statement to Entertainment Tonight. "She was purposefully open in all of her work about the social stigmas surrounding these diseases."
"She talked about the shame that torments people and their families confronted by these diseases. I know my Mom, she'd want her death to encourage people to be open about their struggles," Lourd added. "Seek help, fight for government funding for mental health programs. Shame and those social stigmas are the enemies of progress to solutions and ultimately a cure."


Here we go again. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton welcomed Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas to the State Department this morning for the formal commencement of direct peace negotiations. While the resumption of talks is seen as a diplomatic win for the Obama administration, the expectations for a breakthrough remain low.
Cinephiles and celebrities converge in Italy for the 67th Venice Film Festival, which kicks off on Wednesday. The shortlist of films in the running for top prizes includes Sofia Coppola's "Somewhere," Darren Aronofsky's "Black Swan" and Julian Schnabel's "Miral." Coincidentally, Schnabel's movie about a Palestinian orphan in war-torn Jerusalem is set to premiere on Sept. 2, the same day that Israeli-Palestinian peace talks are scheduled to resume in Washington, D.C.
It's been a busy and mystifying few days in North Korea. First, ex-president Jimmy Carter flew to Pyongyang to secure the release of an American jailed there for trespassing. Then, during the visit, North Korea's reclusive leader, Kim Jong-il, secreted in his bullet-proof train to China, where he presumably sought the support of Chinese officials for his son and chosen successor. Now, Carter has not only secured the release of the American, Aijalon Mahli Gomes, but also a commitment from North Korea to resume multilateral talks over its nuclear program.
North Korean leader Kim Jong-il has reportedly traveled on his secret, bullet-proof train to China, even as former U.S. President Jimmy Carter visits the country to secure the release of a jailed American. The visit stoked speculation in the South Korean media that Kim may have been seeking the support of his country's closest and most powerful ally for his heir-apparent son, Kim Jong-un.
Former President Jimmy Carter will fly to North Korea in the next several days to seek the release of an American imprisoned there for illegally entering the country, South Korean media and Foreign Policy magazine reported on Tuesday. The State Department would neither confirm nor deny the reports, but hinted that such a mission would be a "humanitarian" one, and that Carter would go as a private citizen. The U.S. has already sent a secret team of negotiators to Pyongyang to secure the release of the American, Aijalon Mahli Gomes, but made little progress.
Gunmen stormed a hotel near the presidential palace in the Somali capital of Mogadishu Tuesday, killing as many as 33 people, including six members of parliament. The attackers were dressed as Somali government soldiers and, upon approaching the building, began firing on the guards. One blew himself up inside the hotel. The Al-Shabab militant group has claimed responsibility for the attack. The group had already waged a first wave of attacks against Somali targets on Monday, bringing the two-day death toll to at least 70. As Need to Know has reported, Al Shabab has also claimed responsibility for twin bombings in Uganda in July that killed at least 64, and the group proudly boasts of its ties to Al Qaeda.
The complicated legal case involving the street artist Shepard Fairey and the photograph of then-Sen. Barack Obama that he transformed into his famous "Hope" poster got a little less complicated on Tuesday. The photographer who took the shot, Mannie Garcia, dropped a lawsuit against the Associated Press, who he said had improperly claimed copyright over the photo. Garcia contended that he was not working for the AP when he took the photo, and that the copyright was actually his. Despite Garcia's decision, the legal battle over the poster itself drags on. Fairey and AP are set to go to court in March 2010 over the rights to the photo. Fairey sued the AP in 2008, and the news agency then countersued.
The massive egg recall that has flummoxed federal regulators and sickened thousands with salmonella has apparently had at least one positive outcome: More consumers seem to be getting their produce from farmers markets. Sales of eggs at co-ops and roadside stands rose over the weekend after news of the outbreak spread. More than 550 million eggs have been recalled, and the head of the Food and Drug administration has said that she would like more regulatory authority to prevent future incidents, including the power to mandate recalls. Members of Congress are also questioning the spotty track record of the Iowa egg producers at the center of the recall, and the FDA's role in policing them.
A federal judge has issued an injunction temporarily blocking an Obama administration policy that would expand the use of human embryos in stem cell research. Judge Royce Lamberth of U.S. District Court said the plaintiffs, two adult embryonic stem cell researchers, had standing to proceed with their case. The researchers had argued that the new rules would increase competition for already-scarce federal funding. They were joined by a Christian organization that argued that the new law violated federal prohibitions against the destruction of human embryos in federally funded research.
American International Group, the massive insurer that nearly went under during the financial crisis, has repaid nearly $4 billion of the more than $180 the federal government committed to prop up the company as part of its effort to stabilize troubled investment houses. The $4 billion repayment brings AIG's overall debt to the taxpayers down to just below $100 billion, though analysts say the company is on track to return as much as half of that sum. The news of AIG's bailout repayment came on the same day that the Federal Reserve cut its line of credit to the insurer by $3.6 — which may sound bad, but actually signifies the government's confidence in AIG.
Relief workers in Chile continued their dramatic effort to rescue 33 miners trapped more than 2,300 feet below the surface, in a collapsed mine just north of the mineral-rich city of Copiapó. The miners were trapped there on August 5th after the roof of the shaft partially collapsed. Officials say it will take at least four months to drill a new hole large enough to lift the 33 miners to safety — but the miners themselves have not been told of their fates. Aid workers, meanwhile, have been lowering capsules of supplies and liquid nutrients to the miners through an 8 centimeter-wide tube. Experts warn that the psychological toll of living in isolation for four months could be extreme.

Keywords: Retropharyngeal abscess, tuberculosis, chronic retropharyngeal abscess
Ekka M, Sinha S. Retropharyngeal abscess as a rare presentation of pulmonary tuberculosis. Lung India 2015;32:262-4
Ekka M, Sinha S. Retropharyngeal abscess as a rare presentation of pulmonary tuberculosis. Lung India [serial online] 2015 [cited 2020 Jan 22];32:262-4. Available from: http://www.lungindia.com/text.asp?2015/32/3/262/156247
The retropharyngeal space lies in the posterior pharyngeal wall, between the middle and deep layers of the deep cervical fascia extending from the base of the skull to the mediastinum. The retropharyngeal abscess is either acute or chronic. Acute abscesses occur frequently in children because of the abundance of retropharyngeal lymph nodes. [1] It results from the suppuration of persistent retropharyngeal lymph nodes due to pyogenic infection, as a result of trauma by a foreign body or instrumentation (laryngoscopy, endotracheal intubation, feeding tube placement, etc.). It can also occur in the presence of associated diseases. [2] Retropharyngeal abscess in adults is also mostly pyogenic and usually secondary to pharyngeal or esophageal perforation or sepsis in the throat or sinuses. However, chronic retropharyngeal abscesses are rare in immunocompetent adults; [3] they occur mostly in immunocompromised patients [3] and tubercular retropharyngeal abscesses themselves are very rare. [4] Again, in cases of a tubercular retropharyngeal abscess, it is usually due to spinal tuberculosis and it is also seen mostly in children. [5]
Previously, few cases have been reported about tubercular retropharyngeal abscesses, from India. However, there are only three case reports of tubercular retropharyngeal abscesses without cervical spine involvement. [5],[6],[7] Herein, we would like to draw attention to the fact that retropharyngeal abscesses can be the presenting features of pulmonary tuberculosis without involvement of the cervical spine. Early radiological investigations to screen for pulmonary tuberculosis and early empirical treatment based on radiological diagnosis alone, in case of a small abscess, can be useful to prevent serious complications.
A 19-year-old female presented to our Outpatient Department (OPD) of Medicine, All India Institute of Medical Science with complaints of: (i) Odynophagia, (ii) neck pain for about two months, and (iii) headache for about six months after being referred to the Department of Otorhinolaryngology. There was no history of fever, cough, chest pain, dyspnea, weight loss or anorexia. There was no history of impaction of foreign bodies, infection in the ear, dental extraction, endoscopy or any other invasive procedure, blood transfusion, or any high-risk behavior. There was no history suggestive of any neurological deficit. There was no history of hypertension or diabetes mellitus.
On examination she was of average build and nutrition. There was no anemia, jaundice, swelling in the neck, clubbing or cyanosis. Her vitals were stable, there was no bony tenderness or swelling in the cervical spine; but there was a small 1 × 1 cm, firm, mobile, nontender lymph node in the left upper cervical area, in the posterior triangle. Examination of the cardiovascular, respiratory, and nervous systems did not show any abnormality.
On investigations, she had a hemoglobin of 12.8 gm/dl, total leucocytes 8300/cmm, erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) of 59 in the first hour. Liver function and renal function tests were within normal limits. Her Mantoux test was 14 mm and the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISA) for human immunodeficiency syndrome (HIV)-1 and 2 were negative. She could not produce sputum to examine for Acid Fast Bacilli (AFB) even after induction with hypertonic saline inhalation. A chest x-ray (posteroanterior view) showed evidence of cavitatory pulmonary tuberculosis on the left side. Contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CECT) of the chest showed consolidation with cavitation in the lingular segment, with nodular opacity in the left lower lobe and an enlarged node in the subcarinal region, with a suspicion of infective etiology[Figure 1]a. It also showed a 1.5 × 1cm hypodense lesion in the left postero-lateral pharyngeal wall, causing minimum indentation of the nasopharyngeal region and reaching up to the oropharynx, with suspicion of a retropharyngeal abscess[Figure 2]a. Findings by indirect laryngoscopy were: (i) Slight swelling of the left pharyngeal wall with debris over it and decreased left palatal movement, (ii) normal larynx, and (iii) normal movement of the vocal cord. X-ray of the cervical spine and CECT head were normal. We could not aspirate the pus for smear and culture examination, for microbiological confirmation, as our patient did not give consent for the invasive procedure. However, the abscess was also small, without any symptoms of airway compression. Fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) of the cervical lymph node showed only reactive changes. Bronchoscopy could not be done as the patient did not give consent for the same. However, based on the above findings, the patient was treated empirically with category-1 antitubercular drugs (RHZE for two months and RH for four months). After six months of follow up, the patient was asymptomatic and a repeat CECT neck and chest showed resolution of the left lung infective lesion, as well as, the left pharyngeal wall infective lesion [[Figure 1]b and [Figure 2]b, respectively]. Here, the diagnosis was based on radiological and clinical findings and therapeutic response to antitubercular therapy.

The retropharyngeal space is a space posterior to the posterior pharyngeal wall, between the middle and deep layers of the deep cervical fascia, extending from the base of the skull to the mediastinum. It contains loose areolar tissue and a pair of lateral retropharyngeal glands. Acute bacterial infections of the head and neck region, especially in children, injury to the posterior pharyngeal wall due to foreign body or instrumentation, and forward spread of vertebral tuberculosis, can lead to infection in the retropharyngeal space and subsequent abscess formation.
Retropharyngeal abscess in adults is mostly pyogenic and usually secondary to pharyngeal or esophageal perforation or sepsis in the throat or sinuses. Tuberculosis, as the etiological agent of a retropharyngeal abscess, in an immunocompetent adult is rare. In case of pulmonary tuberculosis, it is a rare presentation of tuberculosis, even in the presence of extensive pulmonary tuberculosis, [8] as in our case. It can present with variable manifestations, from subtle features such as odynophagia alone and neck pain, as in our case, due to early stage and less severity of the disease, to catastrophic complications causing stridor and life-threatening respiratory obstruction, as reported previously. [9] Our patient presented with only odynophagia and neck pain on the left side, the expected presentation in an adult, but the symptoms and signs suggestive of pulmonary tuberculosis were lacking. On throat examination, the swelling due to a tubercular retropharyngeal abscess was usually in the midline, in contrast to the acute pyogenic retropharyngeal abscess, which was usually on one side of the midline. However, in our case the swelling was on the left side.
A tubercular retropharyngeal abscess in an adult is usually secondary to the tuberculous involvement of the cervical spine. [10] However, there was no evidence of spinal tuberculosis in our case, in contrast to the previous reports, except for three from India, which had concomitant spinal involvement. The probable route of spread of tuberculosis could be due to the retropharyngeal space, via the lymphatics, to a persistent retropharyngeal lymph node. A hematogenous spread from pulmonary tuberculosis or tuberculosis in other location may sometimes be the cause. [11] In our patient, the retropharyngeal abscess was probably due to a hematogenous spread from pulmonary tuberculosis.
The radiological appearance of the cervical spine and examination of the aspirated pus usually confirm the diagnosis. In our case, the cervical spine was free and we could not aspirate the pus, as the patient did not give her consent and also the abscess was small. Our case was diagnosed on the basis of the radiological and clinical findings and the therapeutic response to antitubercular therapy.
With regard to the treatment, a retropharyngeal abscess can be drained safely via the transoral route or by an external route. [12] Antituberculosis drug therapy and conservative neck stabilization should be the initial treatment if a retropharyngeal abscess is due to an extension from cervical spine tuberculosis, with a stable spine and without any neurological deficit or with minimal neurological signs. We treated our patient successfully using antitubercular drug therapy alone, as the abscess was small. There was no evidence of airway obstruction and the cervical spine was free.
A tubercular retropharyngeal abscess is rare in immunocompetent adults. It can be the only presenting feature in case of pulmonary tuberculosis, without any symptoms of pulmonary involvement. These patients can only be treated with antitubercular drugs. Early diagnosis and prompt treatment is required in order to prevent catastrophic complications.
The authors sincerely acknowledge their patient for her kind cooperation and for giving her consent. They also acknowledge the Department of Radiology for providing a photograph and the Department of Otorhinolaryngology for referring the patient to their OPD.

Here's What Hedge Funds Think About HCI Group, Inc. (HCI)
Does HCI Group, Inc. (NYSE:HCI) represent a good buying opportunity at the moment? Let's quickly check the hedge fund interest towards the company. Hedge fund firms constantly search out bright intellectuals and highly-experienced employees and throw away millions of dollars on satellite photos and other research activities, so it is no wonder why they tend to generate millions in profits each year. It is also true that some hedge fund players fail inconceivably on some occasions, but net net their stock picks have been generating superior risk-adjusted returns on average over the years.
HCI Group, Inc. (NYSE:HCI) shares haven't seen a lot of action during the first quarter. Overall, hedge fund sentiment was unchanged. The stock was in 9 hedge funds' portfolios at the end of the first quarter of 2019. At the end of this article we will also compare HCI to other stocks including Capital City Bank Group, Inc. (NASDAQ:CCBG), Inovio Pharmaceuticals Inc (NASDAQ:INO), and Pulse Biosciences, Inc (NASDAQ:PLSE) to get a better sense of its popularity.
Hedge funds' reputation as shrewd investors has been tarnished in the last decade as their hedged returns couldn't keep up with the unhedged returns of the market indices. Our research has shown that hedge funds' small-cap stock picks managed to beat the market by double digits annually between 1999 and 2016, but the margin of outperformance has been declining in recent years. Nevertheless, we were still able to identify in advance a select group of hedge fund holdings that outperformed the market by 40 percentage points since May 2014 through May 30, 2019 (see the details here). We were also able to identify in advance a select group of hedge fund holdings that underperformed the market by 10 percentage points annually between 2006 and 2017. Interestingly the margin of underperformance of these stocks has been increasing in recent years. Investors who are long the market and short these stocks would have returned more than 27% annually between 2015 and 2017. We have been tracking and sharing the list of these stocks since February 2017 in our quarterly newsletter.

We're going to take a peek at the key hedge fund action regarding HCI Group, Inc. (NYSE:HCI).
Hedge fund activity in HCI Group, Inc. (NYSE:HCI)
At Q1's end, a total of 9 of the hedge funds tracked by Insider Monkey were long this stock, a change of 0% from the previous quarter. Below, you can check out the change in hedge fund sentiment towards HCI over the last 15 quarters. So, let's find out which hedge funds were among the top holders of the stock and which hedge funds were making big moves.
When looking at the institutional investors followed by Insider Monkey, Chuck Royce's Royce & Associates has the largest position in HCI Group, Inc. (NYSE:HCI), worth close to $7.4 million, amounting to 0.1% of its total 13F portfolio. Coming in second is Renaissance Technologies, led by Jim Simons, holding a $4.9 million position; less than 0.1%% of its 13F portfolio is allocated to the company. Remaining professional money managers that are bullish consist of Noam Gottesman's GLG Partners, Nick Niell's Arrowgrass Capital Partners and John Overdeck and David Siegel's Two Sigma Advisors.
Seeing as HCI Group, Inc. (NYSE:HCI) has experienced bearish sentiment from the aggregate hedge fund industry, it's easy to see that there was a specific group of fund managers who were dropping their positions entirely by the end of the third quarter. Interestingly, Howard Marks's Oaktree Capital Management dumped the biggest investment of all the hedgies monitored by Insider Monkey, worth close to $11 million in stock, and Ken Griffin's Citadel Investment Group was right behind this move, as the fund sold off about $7.7 million worth. These transactions are interesting, as total hedge fund interest stayed the same (this is a bearish signal in our experience).
Let's check out hedge fund activity in other stocks similar to HCI Group, Inc. (NYSE:HCI). These stocks are Capital City Bank Group, Inc. (NASDAQ:CCBG), Inovio Pharmaceuticals Inc (NASDAQ:INO), Pulse Biosciences, Inc (NASDAQ:PLSE), and Capital Southwest Corporation (NASDAQ:CSWC). All of these stocks' market caps are closest to HCI's market cap.
CCBG 4 6142 2
INO 5 6343 0
PLSE 1 264 -1
CSWC 7 45729 -1
Average 4.25 14620 0
As you can see these stocks had an average of 4.25 hedge funds with bullish positions and the average amount invested in these stocks was $15 million. That figure was $20 million in HCI's case. Capital Southwest Corporation (NASDAQ:CSWC) is the most popular stock in this table. On the other hand Pulse Biosciences, Inc (NASDAQ:PLSE) is the least popular one with only 1 bullish hedge fund positions. Compared to these stocks HCI Group, Inc. (NYSE:HCI) is more popular among hedge funds. Our calculations showed that top 20 most popular stocks among hedge funds returned 6.2% in Q2 through June 19th and outperformed the S&P 500 ETF (SPY) by nearly 3 percentage points. Unfortunately HCI wasn't nearly as popular as these 20 stocks and hedge funds that were betting on HCI were disappointed as the stock returned -3.6% during the same period and underperformed the market. If you are interested in investing in large cap stocks with huge upside potential, you should check out the top 20 most popular stocks among hedge funds as 13 of these stocks already outperformed the market in Q2.

So, you've had a tooth removed. Now what? Here are some steps to follow to protect your mouth after a tooth extraction.
Once you've had a tooth removed, you must get the blood to clot so you stop bleeding. This is also the beginning of the healing process. The dentist will have you bite down on gauze for at least thirty minutes after the appointment. If the bleeding continues after this time, repeat the process with another piece of gauze.
Once the clot has formed, it's important that you don't dislodge it. To avoid disturbing the clot, do not rinse your mouth vigorously. Also, avoid sucking on straws, drinking alcohol or smoking for the next 72 hours. While brushing your teeth is important, you won't want to do it near the extraction site for a couple of days.
Avoid exercising for at least 24 hours as this can increase your blood pressure and cause more bleeding to the site of extraction.
When you've had a tooth extracted, it is normal to experience some swelling and pain. Use an ice pack on the area to keep the swelling down. You can also take pain medications as recommended by the dentist. Your swelling should subside within 48 hours.
If the pain and swelling don't seem to be relieving themselves over time, contact the dentist. It's also important that you take any antibiotics which the dentist prescribes. Eat plenty of good-for-you food that is soft. As soon as you feel comfortable, you can resume a normal diet.
Resume a normal dental care routine as soon as you are comfortable. This includes flossing and brushing. As your mouth remains clean, your healing process will be easier. Go ahead and resume all normal activity a few days after the extraction.
If anything seems abnormal or you experience pain that cannot be controlled, call your Boca Raton dentist immediately. It could be a sign of a larger problem and you'll want to have it treated sooner than later. Our office can be reached at (561) 391-0020, don't hesitate and give us a call!

SEATTLE — Zach Neal whipped through the first inning of his first big-league start with ease, needing just eight pitches to retire Leonys Martin, Seth Smith and Robinson Cano.
The rest of Neal's evening, though, was best forgotten in Oakland's 13-3 loss to the Mariners. He gave up a two-out solo homer to Adam Lind in the second inning, then six more runs in the third — including a three-run shot by Lind, who finished the night with four hits and six RBIs.
"It started off good and after that, it wasn't ideal, for sure," Neal said.
With that, first-place Seattle took the series two games to one, and the A's dropped a season-worst eight games below .500.
The Mariners recorded four hits in a row to open the third against Neal. Martin, Smith and Kyle Seager drove in runs in the inning before Lind's second blast. Neal, 27, was making just his second big-league appearance; he was called up to take the spot left open when Sonny Gray went on the disabled list Sunday.
"The first five hitters he got out, then when Lind hit the homer, it looked like the ball was creeping over the plate more," A's manager Bob Melvin said.
Neal was able to come back in the fourth with a 1-2-3 inning. "I needed some innings," Melvin said. "There are some nights you can't take a guy out early and run through your whole bullpen. He's got to figure it out a little bit and give you some innings. I thought it was good, it kept us to a minimum of who we used in the game."
Neal has allowed 12 hits and 10 runs in seven big-league innings. It's possible the A's will look for another option at Triple-A Nashville the next time they need a fifth starter, which will be Tuesday. (Daniel Mengden has an 0.79 ERA there after allowing one run in seven innings at Las Vegas on Wednesday.)
Neal wasn't the only one to have a rough evening. Center fielder Billy Burns went into the bag standing on a triple attempt in the third inning. With a slide, he probably would have been safe, but Seager tagged him as Burns pulled in after smacking a line drive into the corner in right. Initially, Burns was ruled safe, but the call was overturned on replay.

"I had him standing up. I didn't think they had a chance," said third-base coach Ron Washington, who was surprised by the strength of Cano's relay. "I screwed that up. It wasn't Billy. ... It was all me. I just made my call too soon."

Khris Davis gave Oakland a 1-0 lead with a homer off Hisashi Iwakuma in the second inning. Davis leads the majors in homers this month, with 10, and is second in RBIs, with 22. The A's scored twice more in the fifth when Marcus Semien singled, Chris Coghlan doubled to end an 0-for-21 skid and Coco Crisp provided an RBI single and Burns a run-scoring grounder.
The Mariners got one in the fifth off Marc Rzepczynski, courtesy of an RBI single by Lind, and in the seventh, Nelson Cruz crushed a two-run homer off Andrew Triggs that struck the scoreboard in left. Lind added an RBI double that inning and Luis Sardinas drove in Lind. Cano added his 14th homer in in the eighth, a shot deep to right off Triggs.
Crisp continues to be one of the A's nicest stories. The outfielder, plagued by injuries the past few years, recorded his 1,500th career hit Monday, and on Wednesday, he extended his hitting streak to nine games.

CDC reports cases of multisystem inflammatory syndrome in adults
(HealthDay)—Adult patients with current or previous severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) can develop a hyperinflammatory syndrome, which resembles multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C), according to a case series published in the Oct. 2 early-release issue of the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report.
Sapna Bamrah Morris, M.D., from the CDC COVID-19 Response Team, and colleagues present reports of 27 patients with cardiovascular, gastrointestinal, dermatologic, and neurologic symptoms without severe respiratory illness who concurrently received positive test results for SARS-CoV-2.
The researchers highlight recognition of multisystem inflammatory syndrome in adults (MIS-A), which resembles MIS-C. The patients described had minimal respiratory symptoms, hypoxemia, or radiographic abnormalities. In case reports describing MIS-A, only eight of 16 patients had any documented respiratory symptoms before onset of MIS-A. All 16 patients had evidence of cardiac effects, 13 had gastrointestinal symptoms on admission, and five had dermatologic manifestations. Ten of the patients had pulmonary ground-glass opacities, and six had pleural effusions on chest imaging, despite minimal respiratory symptoms. Ten of the patients had positive SARS-CoV-2 polymerase chain reaction (PCR) test results at the time of initial assessment. Six had negative SARS-CoV-2 PCR results, but four had positive anti-SARS-CoV-2 antibody results and two had positive SARS-CoV-2 PCR test results between 14 and 37 days before admission.
"Clinical suspicion and indicated SARS-CoV-2 testing, including antibody testing, might be needed to recognize and treat adults with MIS-A. Further research is needed to understand the pathogenesis and long-term effects of this condition," the authors write. "Ultimately, the recognition of MIS-A reinforces the need for prevention efforts to limit spread of SARS-CoV-2."

Tidal Energy is one of the Renewable Energy Sources, RES, and together with the Wave Energy are the two forms of the Ocean Energy Renewable Source. In short, Tidal Energy is the energy captured from the tides in the oceans and seas which are caused by the gravitational forces of the moon, primarily, and of the sun.
Some interesting facts about Tidal Energy are listed below, in order to give the magnitude and capabilities of Tidal Power/ Tidal Energy.
Tidal Energy is the oldest form of renewable energy, which was used in the water mills by the Romans when they occupied England. It was later used for the same purpose, give power to the mills, along the shores of Spain, France and Britain.
Tidal energy is clean renewable green energy and does not use any fossil fuels, thus has zero CO2 emissions and zero impact to the environment.
Tidal movement occurs twice a day by the gravitational effect of the moon.
Tidal power is used mostly for the production of Electricity.
Not all seashores are suitable for tidal power exploitation. For a place to be suitable for a Tidal Energy installation it should have tidal range of more than 7 meters.
Tidal power can be captured for a maximum of a 10 hours cycle per day.
The tidal barrage technology has the disadvantage of affecting the surrounding eco-system and wildlife in the area of the barrage.
The cost of building a Tidal powered electricity station is high and varies from 1.3million USD per MW to 1.8million USD per MW depending on the location and technology used. This high cost is one of the prohibitive factors of the expansion of tidal power.
Tidal power installations can provide additional or side benefits to the area of their installation. Such side benefits can be bridges and roads that can be built over the tidal power installations. This was the case in the La Rance installation where a road was built running over the tidal power plant.
Tidal energy can be considered as a consistent and predictable source, since the tides occur twice a day at consistent pattern.
The largest tidal power plant that was built for commercial use is located in Northern France on the estuary of La Rance.
The first Tidal project in Canada was built in Annapolis Nova Scotia where the highest tides in the world are harnessed to produce electricity. With a capacity of 20 MW the plant can provide electricity to about 4500 homes.
The first tidal project in the USA, which is connected to the grid is the Cobscook Bay, is the Tidal project in Maine.
Two other commercial Tidal Power plants are located in the White Sea in Russia and in Jiangxia, China.
The tides in North West Australia reach a height of 30 feet and this makes the region a potential region of Tidal power plants.
Scotland is an area where a lot of research and development is done in the two ocean energy subcategories: Wave and Tidal Energy. Scotland invests a lot in these energy sources and the technologies related to them.
Scotland has currently two large tidal turbines in operation.
The world's largest tidal turbine is installed in Scotland.
The world's largest tidal energy project will be built in Scotland between two islands. The island of Jura and the island of Islay. The project will have 10 tidal turbines and will be capable of producing 1MW of electricity.
The SeaGen, tidal energy plant in Ireland, is the first commercial tidal project which has reached the 5 GWh electricity generation mark.
A new and incredible by many standards Tidal Energy plant is expected to be completed in 2012 off the coast of France in Brittany.
Tidal energy is one of the 5 sources of renewable green energy and it is a renewable source which even though it does not attract much attention due to the large investments needed for a tidal energy plant, it is one of the promising Renewable Energy Sources.
