Terror in Israel, A Reality We Know Too Well
By: Carole Nuriel, ADL's Jerusalem Office
Over the past two weeks, a wave of terror has once again hit Israel. For those of us who grew up in Israel during the 1980s, this is an unfortunate reality we know all too well. Israelis suffered through two intifadas, waves of terror attacks including suicide bombs, shootings, run-over attacks, stone throwing and Molotov cocktails. Yet there is a feeling now that this particular wave of terror is different. There are a few reasons for this:
• The terrorists' profile: They come both from Palestinian areas in the West Bank and from Israeli Arab communities
• Most of them are relatively young, some even teenagers
Obviously, another change is the use of social media: some of the terrorists have declared their intention to carry out attacks on social media. This tool, which has become the new "city square", provides a platform for recruitment, incitement, how-tos, as well as for organizing crowds to demonstrate and riot against Israeli security forces.
In many ways, this wave of violence represents an on-the-ground version of the recent Hamas rocket attacks from Gaza, which indiscriminately targeted Israeli civilians throughout the country. This wave may have started in East Jerusalem and the West Bank, but quickly caught fire to the rest of the country, and is now targeting cities like Kiryat Gat, Petach Tikva, Tel Aviv and Afula. Much like Hamas' rockets, much of the fear Israelis are now feeling is because of the sense that no place in the country is immune from terror attacks.
Anxiety is felt everywhere, as is the nature of terrorism. I live in Modi'in and have taken Road 443 to Jerusalem daily for the past eight years. However, during the last few months I haven't felt safe driving on 443, especially with my kids, as there have been numerous stone and Molotov cocktail throwing incidents on this road. I now feel safer taking Highway 1, even though it means a longer drive to Jerusalem. Indeed, many Modi'in residents don't drive on 443 anymore. Something has definitely changed. Just today, I received a notice that security checkpoints will be erected at all entrances to the city, and security in all educational institutions will be increased.
Polls have shown that there is a general public consensus among Palestinians against terrorism. But last week we witnessed another kind of evil, one which greatly worries me. During Saturday night's terrible stabbing in the Old City of Jerusalem, Adele Bennett, whose husband was killed and she herself stabbed, was reportedly spat on and laughed at by Arab bystanders as she ran to get help with a knife still in her back. What can be more insulting, upsetting and inhumane than this indecent act?
But this is not only about terror, it's also about incitement to violence. Many of those rioting claim Israel is attempting to change the status quo on Temple Mount. This holy place to both Judaism and Islam has been the focus of clashes and provocations for years. It is hard to ignore the dangerous actions and discourse of the Islamic Movement in Israel, who have supported the Murabitun/Murabitat group, whose sole purpose is to provoke and insult Jews visiting the Temple Mount. Incitement has also come from senior Palestinian Authority officials, including President Mahmoud Abbas who infamously declared in a television interview a few weeks ago that Jews are defiling the Temple Mount with their feet.
Today more than ever, religious and political leaders must understand how easily their inciting words can lead to violence and terrorism.
There are ongoing efforts among Israeli and Palestinian leaders to deescalate tensions. Israelis hope and pray that this will be successful, and that the personal security will be restored.

"Birdcage," the story of the 2016 H8N2 or "Hang Ten Flu" flu epidemic in Hawai'i, is the most thoroughly realized. FoundFutures, led by University of Hawai'i graduate students Jake Dunagan and Stuart Candy, crafted everything from the government's quarantine zone maps to this-property-is-condemned posters, to the 9/11-style missing-persons fliers that citizens would post in the wake of forced quarantines. The finishing touch is a tourism poster for Maui (unscathed by the flu, how?) which proudly declares that the island is "Still Paradise."
Typically cinema is the chosen medium for visualizing the future. By installing elements of their projects in the urban fabric itself, FoundFutures turns Chinatown into a movie set of sorts, approaching the level of production design that goes into films like "Children of Men."
"Coming soon to Chinatown: a Starbucks, TGI Friday's, American Apparel and luxury lofts priced at $2.5 million each?
No, but that's what several signs announced earlier this month in what turned out to be a controversial campaign by two University of Hawai'i doctoral students to get Chinatown residents talking about their community's future."
H8N2 or "Hang Ten Flu"
Outbreak first begins in Chinatown early April 2016; statewide "ALL CLEAR" early July 2016.

Supercritical fluids occur when sufficient temperature and pressure is applied to take it beyond its critical point. The substances therefore no longer can be defined as being in either a liquid or gas phases. With densities similar to that of liquids but viscosities close to zero, supercritical fluids can diffuse through solids like a gas, whilst dissolving materials like a liquid.
Small changes in pressure or temperature result in changes in density, allowing many properties of a supercritical fluid to be adjusted. Supercritical fluids are suitable as a substitute for organic solvents in a range of industrial and laboratory processes.
Supercritical carbon dioxide occurs above its critical temperature of 31.10 °C and pressure 72.9 bar.

Listen to Charlotte's song to her children Available for purchase at: Amazon.
Charlotte chooses to make the most out of her life, living with purpose and accomplishing what she's left to do with utmost commitment. But what is life worth? Can she keep her faith in the midst of so many challenges? What makes matters worse for her is that something is standing in her way – can she muster the courage to forgive, to embrace her inner freedom, and follow the path of faith? Here is a book that explores spiritual values and the question of faith and suffering. Can one continue to walk on the path of faith when everything seems to be falling apart? The story is well-crafted and the reader can connect with the protagonist easily.
This is my review of the book, "If I should Fall", by Heather Nadine Lenz, the kindle edition,. I read this in one sitting, After receiving a devastating diagnosis of pancreatic cancer and liver metastasis, already in the fourth stage just weeks before Christmas, Charlotte has to come to terms with what will happen to her small children, how to forgive, as well as achieve all she can before her time is up. This is well written and the characters are easy to empathize with and relate to. Plot is sad and uplifting at the same time. Fast paced, yet slow enough to let you absorb each and every detail in full. This is dealt with in such a human way, honest, raw and yet I have been through this ordeal personally with three people I have loved deeply in my life. It is hard, tragic and yet at the same time i know that this gritty honesty is exactly on target with all I went through. I can highly recommend this book to anyone who, like me, has faced, or may be facing, loosing someone or who has been diagnosed with a similar issue.
I loved this story from beginning to end. It switches intensities and takes you through this roller coaster of excitement, sadness, desperation, and fear. I am sure that many of us can relate to Charlotte and what she went through. I find this story absolutely engrossing to the point where I could not put it down.
I am a born-again Christian, however, the reading of the novel does not have an intense religious view so it can be enjoyed by pretty much anyone, regardless of your beliefs.
The novel tells the story of Charlotte, a woman with two kids and a cheating husband (ok, to be fair, it was a one-night thing and he does not even remember, apparently). I especially love stories that get entangled as they keep my interest and peak curiosity on how the heck is this going to unravel. This book gave me that feeling of 'desperation' to know how things are going to end.
"Faith is tough on a normal day, so what do you do when your marriage is falling apart, and your world is shattered with a diagnosis of Stage Four pancreatic cancer? Charlotte learns the hard way in If I Should Fall by Heather Nadine Lenz. She's worked hard to create the perfect home, the perfect life, and the perfect family, but it started to come unraveled when her husband had an affair.
She struggles to keep her psychiatry practice in line, stay in contact with her family, care for her two small children, and deal with the gossip in the small town of McCall, Idaho. The cancer diagnosis not only brings Charlotte pain and doubt, but leads her to struggles with forgiveness and mercy as she unexpectedly faces her final days. When her sister finds a new love interest who charms the family but gives Charlotte bad vibes, doubt starts to creep in, leaving Charlotte to question everything, including herself, her faith, and her belief in God. I read this book in two days because I couldn't put it down.
I lost three friends to cancer in an eighteen-month period (two to pancreatic, and one to lung cancer), so this book called to me and particularly touched me. I love how Heather Nadine Lenz deals with mortality and death so honestly, much like my friends did. Their struggles and reconciliation of faith in their final days not only confirmed my own faith, but inspired me with strength and courage so that I can truly face all things through Christ. This book reminded me of those lessons, while telling a touching story of life, death, forgiveness, mercy, and redemption. If you're looking for a Christmas novel for yourself or to gift to a friend that will inspire, teach, and encourage you to find blessings in everyday life, then If I Should Fall is a great pick.
"What would you do if you suddenly discovered that you have stage four pancreatic cancer and liver metastasis? After losing her man, Charlotte discovers, to her great shock, that she has stage four cancer. It is a turning point in her life as she wrestles with questions of faith, life, and meaning. She has to determine how to spend her last days, to remain firm in her faith, and to do work that really matters. The only problem is that someone stands in her way.
Follow her story as she seeks answers. If I Should Fall by Heather Nadine Lenz is a story of love and faith, a story imbued with a powerful sense of humanity and compelling characters. This is a very inspiring story with a protagonist that readers will easily identify with. Charlotte is no different from the ordinary woman who has to worry about paying her bills and putting food on the table. But when she discovers that she has a terminal illness, she, like anyone, is tempted to give in to despair.

Q: BigQuery Querying Events Table Objective : To take the users count which has event_name= 'Wallet'
Problem : I have limited the query's result to 100 to check so the expected result must be 100 but when I use count(params.value.string_value) it shows 124 .
Code : SELECT count(params.value.string_value) FROM "myproj.analytics_197163127.events_20190528",UNNEST(event_params) as params where event_name ='Wallet' and params.key = 'UserId' limit 100
Expected Result : if the query is returning 100 records the count should be 100 but how is it showing 124?
Hope the question is clear

A: limit is applied to the result set produced by the query.
Your query is an aggregation query with no group by.  Such an aggregation always returns one row.  So, the limit does not affect the results.
If you want to see 100 for the result set, use a CTE or subquery:
SELECT count(params.value.string_value)
FROM (SELECT params
      FROM "myproj.analytics_197163127.events_20190528" e CROSS JOIN
           UNNEST(e.event_params) params
      WHERE e.event_name ='Wallet' AND params.key = 'UserId'
      LIMIT 100
     ) ep

A: The query shows 100 records because of the limit 100 at the end:
SELECT event_date,event_timestamp,event_name, params.value.string_value
FROM myproj.analytics_197163127.events_20190528, UNNEST(event_params) as params
where event_name ='Wallet' and params.key = 'UserId'
limit 100

Remove that and check again.
The LIMIT 100 specifies the number of rows to be returned from the SQL statement. It does not influence the COUNT() in your query. So there is a difference between :
select count(*) from table limit 100

this will return a single value with the number of rows in the table. On the other hand :
select count(*) from (select * from table limit 100)

This will return 100 (if the table has more than 100 rows - otherwise it will return the number of rows in table)

Dover immigration removal centre set for closure

An immigration removal centre housed in a former prison in Dover will be shut down.
The Home Office said the facility on the Western Heights would be returned to the auspices of the Ministry of Justice.
It can hold just over 300 people, such as failed asylum seekers, while they await removal from Britain. A Home Office spokesman said detaining and removing people who did not have the right to remain in the UK, with dignity and respect, required "an estate of modern, secure centres located with easy access to the airports from which removals take place".

"We keep our detention estate under constant review and have decided the site at Dover should no longer be used as an immigration removal centre. All detainees will be transferred to other immigration removal centres," he added.
The centre's 200 staff were informed of the decision on Thursday.
The MP for Dover, Charlie Elphicke, told Kent Online that "a handful of workers" had contacted him concerned about their jobs. It was not known when the centre would close.
In May, a Lithuanian man climbed on to the roof of the centre and threatened to take his own life, in protest against his imminent deportation.
The Dover fortress became a prison in 1952 and five years later was turned into a borstal. It continued to hold young offenders until April 2002, when it became an immigration removal centre. There are 13 such centres in the UK, which can accommodate about 3,000 people.

Continental Vista to Internet Broadcast Final "Star Wars" Premiere Craze
WEBWIRE – Wednesday, March 30, 2005
Continental's First Cut Live Teams With LiningUp to Broadcast Outdoor Line-Up Parties and Zaniness From "Star Wars Episode III" Premiere Live From Grauman's Chinese Theatre
LOS ANGELES, CA -- 03/30/2005 -- Continental Vista, the leading provider of turnkey Internet broadcasting systems for an extensive range of industries, announces that one of its networks, First Cut Live, and non-profit organization, LiningUp.net, will broadcast the crowds of fans lining up for the world premiere of "Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith" live from Hollywood's Grauman Chinese Theatre. In the past, over five million fans worldwide tuned in to watch the lining up frenzy over a four-week period. Starting April 3rd (more than a month before the event), about 200 people will begin lining up so they can be among the 1,250 fans watching the midnight premiere of the film, which opens May 19, 2005.
First Cut Live will broadcast all the activity surrounding the line 24 hours a day, as LiningUp hopes to raise at least $50,000 for Starlight-Starbright Children's Foundation, an international non-profit organization dedicated to improving the quality of life for seriously ill children and their families. This year's charity goal is also in addition to the $75,000 that was raised by lining up for the previous two "Star Wars" premieres in 1999 and 2002. Donations can be made several ways as people sponsor individuals as they wait hours, days, weeks in line, or donations can be made directly via an online donation form. Online donations to LiningUp.net already exceed $5,000 and are expected to grow at a rapid rate as the film premiere date closes in.
Continental Vista's First Cut Live network will be on the front lines catching all of the action, as well as allowing viewers at home to interact with people in line on Hollywood Blvd. via chat rooms and message boards. LiningUp will use these message boards to create interactive game shows, in which questions will be posted online allowing viewers who want to submit answers to call the designated payphone located at the start of the line to receive a prize. Viewers at home can also dial the payphone's number, which will be posted online, to call and interact with people in line and request video content they want to see on the broadcasting site. LiningUp will also broadcast entertaining features, such as popular "Star Wars" parodies and other content.
"The 'Star Wars' fan community is one of the largest communities around the world," says Justin Sewell, Event Coordinator for LiningUp.net. "There really was no way for all of the communities and fans to really come together in one location, come to one place as part of one group, so working with Continental Vista and creating an online video network is a perfect opportunity for people anywhere in the world to log on and interact all in the name of 'Star Wars.'"
"We are pleased to broadcast the activity surrounding the final 'Star Wars' film in history," says Greg Demetriades, CEO of Continental Vista Broadcasting Group. "Not only are we helping spread and share the buzz with thousands of fans across the world, but we are also able to raise money for a good cause in the process."
Continental Vista offers a variety of networks that enhance the broadcast experience through interactivity. MSBN (http://www.msbn.tv) is the largest online, live video broadcasting network for college and amateur sports. First Cut Live (http://www.firstcutlive.tv) features live and archived broadcasts of professional and amateur entertainment events, featuring high-quality streaming media and audience involvement. Lexipont (http://www.lexipont.tv) offers broadcasts of live and archived educational events, such as conventions, seminars and online classes. Politically Yours (http://www.politicallyyours.tv) is a haven for political viewpoints on all ends of the spectrum. It is an easy and popular way for politicians, or any politically involved group, to present its message to a wide array of viewers and audiences, including the interactivity of chat rooms, forums, polls and surveys.
About LiningUp
LiningUp.net was created by a small group of core members from the original Countingdown.com line who camped out for six weeks to see the very first showing of "Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace," at Grauman's Chinese Theatre in April and May of 1999. In April of 2002, members started another six-week line for "Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones." Once more, a diverse group of fans of various ages and backgrounds, got together to camp out on Hollywood Blvd. and help raise money for the Starlight-Starbright Children's Foundation.

Kaiser Permanente (KP) is the nation's largest integrated health care delivery system. KP serves nine states and over nine million members, with an annual operating revenue in 2013 of 53.1 billion. KP is a leader in quality improvement efforts in the health care industry through participation in studies performed by the National Committee on Quality Assurance (NCQA), The Joint Commission (TJC) accreditations, and the implementation of a state of the art electronic health records system, which focuses on integration and quality of care standardization.
Change implementation is never an easy task and without special care taken the rate of rejection to change by clinical and administrative employees is high. In order to achieve successful CQI changes the following guidelines and recommendations are presented. a.) Minimize employee rejection through easily implemented and followed CQI procedures. b.) Engage employees in planning to increase acceptance.
1. Design new regulatory and statute training programs for all clinical and administrative employees. 2. Review and revise the KP infection prevention and control program 3. Revise the performance management system to include CQI measurements and risk management procedures as performance metrics.
The Health Care Quality Improvement Act (HCQIA) of 1986 "encourages hospitals, state licensing boards, and professional societies to identify and discipline physicians, dentists, and other health care providers who, after adequate, nondiscriminatory peer review, were found to have engaged in negligent or unprofessional conduct" (Cohen, 2013 p. 333). Through ongoing screening of new and current clinicians, KP will take responsibility for offering their patients that highest quality of care and reducing the risk of employing negligent clinical employees. 2. Zero tolerance adherence policy for all employees with regard to infection control procedures Part of the CMS CoP (42 CFR 482.42) regulation is the "designation of an infection control officer and development of relevant policies that address the identification and control of infections and communicable diseases. Without full compliance with all CoPs, KP could face the loss of their Medicare provider agreement. 3. Vulnerability analysis chart and emergency plan policy.
This summary focused on topics such as the purpose of risk and quality management, risk identification and management, current risks, quality outcomes, organizational goals, and the relationship between risk and quality management. While KP is the nation's largest integrated health care delivery systems and leader in CQI standardization, there is always room for improvements. This consultant understands the importance of improvement at KP, thus humbly presents this summary and recommendations to the board of directors.

Equity: Nikki Fisher

Hello, my name is Neeta. I am in America for about 25 years; I came in January 19th of 1992. So the day I came into America, I came with my two boys.
My boy was 6 year old and one was about 3 years old. Oldest one is named Happy the youngest Kenil. My husband was in America 14 months before, and when he came to pick me up at the airport, the feeling I had, because I was in India for 14 months without my Husband, and the feeling was so awesome when I saw him after 14 months. That time we did not have facetime or video calling I was talking with my husband about once a month or by letters, so my two boys were so happy to see him. Coming from a completely different world to the USA, English was the biggest challenge for me, and January was the coldest month for us because we grew up in India in the hottest weather and I had never seen this kind of cold in my life, it was a snowy day. We handled it well from all the clothing we got from India. That was the best day, when I came and saw my husband after 14 months, and my kids were so happy to see them. My husband was so excited, he got lots of toys for my two boys and he already had an apartment ready for us with all the groceries; he was alone but he had a lot of things ready for me. Then we started our life as of January 1992, so coming from a different world to America was the biggest challenge but after 25 years I am looking at myself and saying "thank god I came here" and I found myself, I learned English, and my two boys grew up. I had a third one after 12 years, his name is Kevin.
He is 20 years old, the middle one is 29 and the older is 31. I am always happy to see all my boys, and my husband. Thank you.


Substance abuse and addiction were once considered an issue that primarily affected the young, however, the elderly population is increasingly abusing alcohol, prescription medications and illicit drugs.
Elderly substance abusers face a myriad risks, including cognitive impairment, harmful medication interactions, poor nutrition, social isolation and an increased risks of falls and injuries. Alcohol and drug abuse is also linked to increased mortality rates and healthcare costs.
As an individual ages they're confronted with physical, mental and social changes and also those which occur to relationships and the family. With age, various health and medical needs occur more frequently, many of which are quite serious. For many, these changes bring a sense of isolation and loneliness, feelings which are frequently tied to, and exacerbated by, substance abuse.
While many of the signs of drug and alcohol abuse remain constant as a person ages, some may change. This can make it more difficult to identify a potential problem.
To further complicate matters, certain signs resemble symptoms of age-related disorders, cognitive impairment or other behaviors which accompany aging. Because of this, it's important that loved ones and caregivers of senior citizens and geriatric persons be aware of the signs of substance abuse at these ages.
Early recognition of a substance use disorder reduces the opportunity for drug- or alcohol-related adverse health effects. It can also help loved ones and care providers to get help more quickly for the person in need. Without help, substance-abusing senior citizens can quickly experience a severely declining quality of life and health.
A substance use disorder can prevent a person from taking good care of themselves. Drug and alcohol abuse can make it difficult to maintain good nutrition, social interaction (which is important at these ages) and adherence to medication regimes. Many forms of substance abuse also worsen depression and cognitive impairment, both conditions which many elderly individuals already struggle with.
Some individuals experience early-onset substance use, or that which began at younger ages and continued on into later life. Other, late-onset abusers develop patterns of abuse once they're older. Research suggests that late-onset substance use disorders occur less frequently, amounting to less than 10 percent of cases.
Medical conditions and mental health disorders, like depression, frequently lead senior citizens to self-medicate.
Men, especially those who are more affluent, Caucasian and in the early stages of their elder years are more frequently linked to unhealthy patterns of drinking at older ages. Women, on the other hand, are associated in greater numbers with prescription drug abuse.
Elderly adults abuse alcohol more frequently than any other drug.
As a person ages their body becomes more sensitive to alcohol, many times experiencing a reduced tolerance. Many individuals feel alcohol's effects much faster than they did at younger ages. Individuals over age 65 need to be especially wary of these changes. Amounts which may have been previously consumed safely can become unhealthy and harmful at these ages.
Almost half of individuals living in a nursing home have alcohol-related problems.
The number of older adults hospitalized for problems relating to alcohol is equal to those hospitalized for heart attacks.
The highest rates of alcoholism in the nation are found in widowers over the age of 75.
have health or medical problems.
as many as 12 percent of women and 30 percent of men occasionally drink three or more drinks in one day.
45 percent drink more than seven drinks per week.
25 percent drink more than 14 drinks per week.
The quicker onset of alcohol's effects and diminished tolerance at these ages also make the elderly more prone to automobile crashes, falls and injuries.
While illicit drug use was once viewed as an issue which mainly impacted the young, trends have recently shifted as older Americans increasingly abuse illicit substances.
The review found that the youngest of these individuals (those aged 50 to 64 years of age) preferred cocaine and heroin and that the older individuals (those over age 65) preferred cocaine and marijuana. While young individuals are more apt to use marijuana for pleasure, older persons use this drug more frequently to self-medicate pain or stress or to stimulant the appetite.
Cocaine: Many of cocaine's greatest health hazards are also conditions older individuals are prone to. These include cerebrovascular accident, delirium, heat stroke and myocardial infarction. Using cocaine at these ages may increase the risk of a person developing these conditions.
Heroin: Elderly individuals frequently encounter declining mental and physical health, including greater instances of physical disabilities. Research has documented that for every year of continued heroin use the odds of developing a severe physical disability rise by roughly five percent. Prolonged heroin abuse can also cause a person's mental ability to deteriorate.
Marijuana: Marijuana (cannabis) abuse has been linked to major depressive disorder, a mental illness may elderly individuals struggle with. Marijuana reduces what can already be slowed reaction times in older individuals, making driving even more dangerous. The cognitive impairment caused from marijuana is suspected to aggravate existing cognitive troubles, including memory, on a short-term basis in some individuals.
Older adults are considered an at-risk population for prescription drug abuse.
According to the National Institute on Drug Abuse, "More than 80 percent of older patients (aged 57 to 85 years) use at least one prescription medication on a daily basis, with more than 50 percent taking more than five medications or supplements daily." With this number of prescriptions older adults have more opportunities to divert and misuse their medications.
It's estimated that 11 percent of older women misuse prescription medications.
Non-medical use of prescription opioids was higher than rates of sedative, stimulant and tranquilizer misuse.
While some individuals use a medication incorrectly, leading to unintentional complications, many knowingly misuse or abuse their own, or someone else's, prescription. Quite often the latter individuals receive prescription medications from a good intentioned friend or relative who has no idea that the drug will be misused.
Prescription drug abuse primarily occurs for two reasons: as a person seeks to self-medicate a physical or mental health concern or as they use the substance recreationally to elicit a pleasurable feeling or high.
Opioid pain relievers, like hydrocodone (Vicodin) and oxycodone (OxyContin and Percocet), are frequently prescribed to treat many conditions elderly persons are diagnosed with, such as cancer or pain. A large number of older Americans take benzodiazepine medications for mental health concerns. Examples include alprazolam (Xanax), diazepam (Valium) and lorazepam (Ativan). Prescription sleeping pills, such as zolpidem (Ambien) and zaleplon (Sonata), are also abused by the elderly.
Prescription drug abuse can easily lead to overdose, especially in those individuals who take multiple medications or who consume alcohol. Research presented by Harvard suggests that individuals taking benzodiazepines may have an increased likelihood of developing dementia and Alzheimer's, two conditions which run high in the elderly population.
Alcohol, abused prescription medications and illicit drugs can cause dangerous interactions with both prescription and over-the-counter medications. Certain dietary supplements, such as herbal remedies, can also cause these dangerous complications. These effects range from reducing a medication's effectiveness to causing life-threatening complications.
These harmful interactions can occur even when an individual isn't abusing these drugs. Complications can arise when an individual takes a prescribed or recommended amount of these medications while abusing alcohol.
Alcohol is a central nervous system (CNS) depressant. This means that it slows down critical life-support systems in the body, such as blood pressure, breathing, heart and respiratory rates. As such, it's particularly dangerous when abused with prescription medications.
The most dangerous reactions occur when alcohol is mixed with other CNS depressants, such as opioid pain relievers and benzodiazepine medications. Similarly, prescription opioid painkillers can be deadly when mixed with benzodiazepine medications or certain sleeping pills.
Far too often drug and alcohol abuse leads to emergency department (ED) visits and hospitalizations. The National Council on Alcoholism and Drug Dependence estimates that six to eleven percent of elderly individuals admitted to the hospital and 14 percent admitted to the ED are for alcohol- or drug- related problems.
According to SAMHSA, on a typical day in 2011, 290 ED visits were for illegal drug use, non-medical use of prescription medications or for use of alcohol mixed with another drug.
Pursuing treatment for a drug or alcohol addiction is the best course of action when seeking to protect elderly individuals from these and other risks.
In 2014, over one million individuals aged 65 or older had a substance use disorder. In 2012, in this same age group, there were only 14,230 admissions to substance abuse treatment programs, as detailed by SAMHA.
If the number of older individuals experiencing a SUD in 2012 were even remotely similar to 2014, there is a vast discrepancy between need and acquired treatment in this population. In order to combat this, elderly persons and their families need access to comprehensive treatment options which meet and respect their changing needs.
Some elderly persons may be reluctant to leave the familiarity of their surroundings to seek treatment. A professionally-led intervention may be worth considering in these instances, should a person refuse treatment for this or any other reason.
The best treatment outcomes for the elderly are the result of a collaborative and individualized treatment approach. Treatment should address the full spectrum of a person's needs, including chronic health and medical conditions, co-occurring disorders, financial troubles, the lack of a social support system and physical and nutritional health deficits.
Due to the intensive physical, psychological and emotional needs of aging adults, inpatient drug rehabilitation programs are often recommended, should a person's health permits.
Many older individuals have complicated health and medical concerns. Because of this, individuals anticipating withdrawal should consider a medically-supervised detoxification. The most severe withdrawal symptoms occur from alcohol, benzodiazepines and opioids, three of the substances most frequently abused by these ages.
Once a person enters rehab, the best programs utilize a combination of research-based behavioral therapies and counseling. These sessions facilitate mental and emotional healing, stability and enhanced coping skills. Should an individual choose, family therapy may also be integrated to help build a better support system. Nutritional support and guidance, along with supervised physical fitness may be an option for certain individuals.
This integrated care is delivered by a highly-trained and compassionate team which may consist of physicians, nurse practitioners, nutritionists, licensed therapists, counselors, social workers and other trained clinicians, some of whom may specialize in geriatric concerns.

Kottayam was ruled by the Rajas of the independent little kingdom of Thekkumkoor ruled from Thazhathangady till the mid-18th century. At that time, Marthanda Varma,the king of Travancore annexed Thekkumcore and surrounding areas of Kottayam to the Kingdom of Travancore. During the British rule of India, Kottayam continued to be ruled under the Princely State of Travancore.
The present district of Kottayam was part of erstwhile princely state of Travancore. The Travancore state consisted of two revenue divisions viz., the South and the North, under the administrative control of a Divan Peshkar for each. Later, in 1868, two more divisions, Quilon and Kottayam, were constituted. The fifth division - Devikulam, came next but for a short period, which in course of time was made part of Kottayam.
At the time of integration of the State of Travancore and Cochin in 1984, these revenue divisions were renamed as districts and the Divan Peshkars gave way to District Collectors, giving birth to Kottayam District.
The beginning of of the 9th century A.D. was the reign of Kulashekaras. At that time, Kottayam was a part of the Kulashekara Empire (1090-1102 A.D). The Vembanad Lake itself derives its name from Vempolinad. The Kingdom of Vempolinad, split into kingdoms of Thekkumkur and Vadakkumkur by about 1100 A.D. which later were annexed to Travancore by Marthanda Varma of Travancore (between 1748 and 1754). The Portuguese and the Dutch had their business relations with both Thekkumkur and Vadakkumkur kingdoms, pepper and other spices being the main attractions.
In addition to Thekkumkur and Vadakkumkur, Marthanda Varma brought two more pretty principalities in Kottayam under his control. These were Poonjar and Meenachil.
After Marthanda Varma, Dharma Raja (1758-1798) placed Kottayam in a key position in the new defense strategy against Haider Ali and Tippu Sulthan of Mysore. Apart from this, Kottayam gave asylum to a number of refugee princes who left Malabar in the wake of Mysore invasions.
Kottayam occupied a pre-eminent position in the cultural life of the Travancore princely court, the main reason being the migration of Ramapurathu Warrier, the famous poet of Vadakkumkur, to Triruvananthapuram , following the annexation of Kottayam by Marthanda Varma.
Kottayam has played its role in all the political agitation of modern times. The "Malayali Memorial" agitation may be said to have had its origin in Kottayam. The Malayali Memorial sought to secure better representation for educated Travancoreans in Travancore civil service against persons from outside. The memorial that was presented to Maharaja Sri Mulam Thirunal (1891) was drafted at a public meeting held in Kottayam Public Library. The event marked the beginning of the modern political movement in the state.
It was here that the famous Vaikom Satyagraha, (1924-25) an epic struggle against untouchability took place. Scheduled castes and other backward classes in Travancore were not only denied entry into temples, but also to temple roads. Vaikom, the seat of a celebrated Siva Temple, was the venue of the symbolic Satyagraha. It is of immense historic significance that national leaders like Mahatma Gandhi, C. Rajagopalachari, Acharaya Vinoba Bhave and E.V. Ramaswami Naickar, associated with this struggle.
The 'Nivarthana' agitation of the early thirties, to secure adequate representation for the low-caste Hindus, Christians and Muslims in State Legislature, enjoyed considerable support from this district.
The district was also a centre of the agitation led by the State Congress for responsible Government in Travancore. The agitation had a triumphant end, with overthrowing of Sir. C. P. Ramaswami Iyer, the then Divan of Travancore.

Most of us have been there, or will be at some point. That feeling you get with some projects where it's like you're stuck on an interstate on a Friday evening, because someone up ahead has a flat tire.
Roadblocks on projects are frustratingly inefficient. You'd love to continue on and get the job done, but some contingent process or communication is not happening.
Some agencies we've encountered have expressed frustration at projects which have dragged out for months longer than expected, limiting their ability to take on new projects and causing disproportionate amounts of time to be spent chasing up.
Unblock your projects with 6 easy tips. Grab your free download here.
Most projects will follow a similar sort of process from ideation through to completion. That is not to say that all should be approached the same way: appropriate project approaches can be as varied as the requirements of individual clients.
Of course each of these steps will have further actions and milestones. Before starting or assigning any of the client work, sit down and outline a clear project process, including individual milestones and what contingencies milestones may rely upon in order to be completed.
As you lay out your process, prioritize tasks in accordance with which ones contribute the most to the momentum and success of the project. Delegate out to team members according to strengths. If you handle some of the work too, pick the areas where your own strengths lie.
Bottlenecks tend to occur whenever the next step is contingent on something being completed in the last one. By identifying these potential bottlenecks ahead of time, you are not only able to make them clear to anyone involved in the project, but plan ahead for ways to get around them.
Eric Ries, author of 'The Lean Startup' recommends using the "Five Whys" technique for getting through all kinds of problems that you may encounter in business. This technique has its origins in the Toyota plant in the 1950s and basically involves asking a series of five 'why' questions for each problem you encounter.
Why are we stuck at (this point) of the project?
Person X hasn't completed task A.
Why hasn't person X completed task A?
They need widget B from person Y in order to complete it.
Why hasn't person Y completed widget B?
They have 27 other widgets to complete over the same period and not enough time.
Why does person Y have 27 other widgets to complete?
There is no one else on the team with widget competency.
Why is there no one else on the team with widget competency?
Because we haven't recruited anyone else yet.
In this way the "Five Whys" help you to drill down to the real source of bottlenecks. In this case, recruiting more widget makers could have un-stuck the project, so person X wasn't the immediate problem.
Find the real source of project roadblocks using the "five whys".
Scope-creep is a frequent cause of bottlenecks in projects. We've written about its perils previously and given pointers on how to avoid it. If your scope grows out of control, it becomes difficult to make any real progress on a project because you're constantly changing gears.
Having a clearly defined, documented project scope is a key factor in avoiding scope-creep and keeping momentum in your projects. The most efficient projects have firmly laid out what is in-scope and what is outside of it. This way, even if you do need to have some flexibility, you have the opportunity to review original agreements and be compensated more for any additions.
Managing a team through project work is never an easy task, especially if they are all based remotely, as is the case with many digital agencies these days.
Some people feel it's more difficult to hold team members accountable when you're not seeing them every day in an office setting, but this does not need to be the case. In fact, if you want to keep projects on-track, you need to develop standards for your team and hold members accountable if they don't meet them.
Your standards should include everything from the quality of the work and expectations for any revisions, to the timeliness of delivery. Document your standards and keep them somewhere very visible to your team.
You should also be sure to include standards for what to do if a deliverable is held up. Sometimes there are valid reasons why something can't be delivered on time, but give your team members a process to follow so that hopefully, you are alerted in advance of the deadline.
This goes for both clients and team members: either could be responsible for roadblocks in the project process. Right from the beginning of your arrangement with the client, agree upon a strategy for communication throughout the project.
Your agreement should include how you will communicate and when. Your needs will vary depending on the size and scope of the project, but sometimes having a set, regular progress meeting is one of the best ways to stay on track.
Always make clear to the client what their role is in the project. If certain things can't go ahead until you've heard from them, be sure that they understand this. Give them simple action steps so that they don't feel like they have large, daunting tasks to get through.
There are many good project management tools out there, and these are a great place to store relevant files, keep your project plan and documentation and communicate internally with your team.
One of the pieces that is often missing is an effective tool for communicating with clients throughout the project. This is where we like ClientFlow: you and the client can have a shared inbox dedicated to their project. This way communications don't go missing or get buried in overflowing inboxes.
Your role is always to take charge of the project – otherwise you run into the real possibility that the entire thing hinges on the client. In general, clients expect you to take charge anyway so there's nothing wrong with including contingency measures in your agreement.
There are a couple of thoughts behind this: 1) getting a percentage upfront can protect you from those "check is in the mail" customers and 2) paying by the milestone can be a good way of keeping the client invested in the project.
This means that (hopefully!) they're vitally interested in being responsive when you need something back from them because they have already invested time and funds.
Typically, many agencies ask for 50% upfront, but you could attach agreed fees to each milestone throughout the project too, especially if they represent a large amount of work. This helps to ensure that you don't end up in the hole if the client suddenly vanishes part way through too.
If the hold-up is not with you or your team and the client persists in being the roadblock, sometimes the best course of action can be simply to cut and run. Red flags like persistently missing payments for milestones, chopping and changing ideas so that nothing is ever achieved and being slow or completely absent with feedback can be good reasons to call it quits.
Keep communications professional and give the client fair warning if possible, but don't allow a situation to continue that is preventing you from moving on to other projects. Not every client is a good fit for you and that's fine: just don't let the project continue to drag out. This can be quite demoralizing and demotivating for team members.
The roadblocked project is a common scenario for agencies and anyone else who specializes in project-based work. While you may not be able to avoid roadblocks forever, there are some steps you can take to minimize the chances of them occurring.
Have a good plan in place, identify and deal with the root causes of roadblocks, set clear standards for your team and the client. Try keeping the client invested by regularly updating them and possibly requiring milestone payments.
If all else fails, don't let one roadblocked project stand in the way of your ability to commit to other work. Know when to walk away and look to the next project.
Follow these quick steps if you find your project roadblocked. Subsribe here for this extra resource.

Police empty-handed after SWAT standoff
Members of the Roswell Police SWAT team stand by an armed vehicle outside a residence at 314 S. Birch St. Friday afternoon. Police officers encircled the residence for several hours, after hearing that an armed robbery suspect was inside and would not leave. Police repeatedly ordered any occupants within the building to come out with hands up. At 5 p.m., police entered the residence and came out about eight minutes later without a suspect. (Alex Ross Photo)
An armed robbery suspect that was believed to be holed up in an apartment was the cause of an hours-long heavy presence by Rowell Police in a suburban neighborhood Friday afternoon.
Police later discovered the suspect was not in the apartment when they entered the residence at 314 Birch Ave.
Todd Wildermuth, public information officer with the RPD, said the heavy police presence was in response to an armed robbery in which a cellphone was taken.
Police received a call at about 1:30 p.m. from the 1600 block of North Ohio Avenue about the robbery, but Wildermuth said he did not know if the location from where the call was made was where the armed robbery occurred. He said police learned the suspect might be at the apartment during the course of their investigation.
Wildermuth said he did not have a name of a suspect to release because he did not know if any criminal charges had yet been filed.
The situation transformed the neighborhood into something reminiscent of a war zone, with fatigue-clad officers in bulletproof vests surrounding the apartment and armored vehicles parked nearby.
Chris Menard, owner of the apartment where the suspect was believed to be, was at the scene. He said police called him and told him someone wanted by police was seen going into the apartment and refused to come out.
Throughout the incident, access to traffic was restricted on portions of South Birch Avenue, West Alameda and South Sycamore streets, with idling police units acting as barriers.
Residents of the neighborhood stood on sidewalks at the ends of driveways and in front yards to catch a glimpse of the scene unfolding.
Armed officers in bulletproof vests and fatigues meanwhile stood outside the front door while others patrolled the area around the apartment.
Repeatedly, police called for any occupants within the apartment to come out with their hands up, but the demands were met only with silence. After receiving no response, officers broke a window out in the front of the apartment at 4:52 p.m. and threw teargas inside.
Officers made entry at about 5 p.m., while others moved about the property with guns drawn. Minutes later, officers were seen coming out of the apartment but without anyone in their custody.
Menard later said police informed him the windows in the apartment had been broken. Wildermuth said Friday night that based on the information he has, two windows were broken by officers while dealing with the situation.

I mean, why not? It's been a couple of months since we last chatted. If you're free, I'm free. By free of course I mean stuck in the house because a) it's April but also January 97th as far as weather as concerned, and b) we're in the throes of potty training boot camp, which means we've got two sweet little booties running around practically naked and mostly not informing me when they need to go. So it might take me all day to type this post (spoiler: it took me a full 24 hours) because we're on that sit-on-the-potty-every-20-minutes-whether-you-need-to-go-or-not schedule.
The only place around here that carries it is HyVee (okay and probably Whole Foods but that is an incredibly inconvenient and expensive trip to make regularly) where I exclusively shop on Wednesdays because Wellness Wednesday means 10% off everything in the health department. So on Wednesdays, I stock up on Califia Farms and/or nutpods, Kite Hill chive cream cheese (if you haven't experienced this deliciousness, TRY IT!), Nut Thins, LaCroix, Dave's Killer Bread and basically any other non-dairy and/or gluten-free snacks of the moment. We definitely eat plenty of dairy and gluten around here, but I've been making an effort to incorporate more plant-based foods where we can.
On a related note, I'm also doing a bunch of food prep today. And I'm just keeping it simple. I haven't been super into meat lately so lots of veggies for me. On the contrary, the men in my life think that every meal must revolve around meat so I'm letting J handle dinner on the days he gets home from work before me, and then making meals for the whole family when I'm home. Sometimes. And the rest of the time we have just been going out on family dates. I've decided I can't spend any more time planning, shopping, and prepping meals that are healthy, but also liked by everyone. I just like different foods than the rest of my family and that's okay. So admittedly most of this food prep is for me, but I will happily share should anyone like some!
In addition to potty training, our house is otherwise chaotic in terms of more remodeling. This time we're updating our master bath and it's going to look grrreat, but sadly we won't get much use out of it because we're just remodeling to sell.
That's right, we're making a move! Truthfully we've been trying to move back "home" to Spring Green for about a year, but because the housing inventory is so low there, and the houses don't last more than a week on the market here, we've held out on listing our house because we didn't have anywhere to go. Last month we found a house, fell in absolute LOVE with it, and didn't get it. So we realized we really needed to get rid of our house so we didn't have a contingency on our next offer. As such, we were able to find a townhouse in Spring Green with a month-to-month lease while we figure out our next step. If the perfect home becomes available, we'll make an offer, if not we'll further entertain building new as an option. It's all a little surreal since we are still very much living here and have not listed nor set a moving date, but the lease on our townhouse starts May 1, so this is actually happening!
Today marks the first day in literal weeks that everyone is mostly healthy in our house. Not even joking. We have all had some form of sore throat, congestion, cough, disgustingness for a MONTH. The boys have thrown up as a result of choking on mucus more times than I can count, I missed a day of work because I was so achy I could barely lift my arms above my head, and Justin has dealt with a sore throat and cough for what seems like half a year. Of course it's all been just viral junk so we've really only been using natural remedies and loads of ibuprofen (for me anyway, and way more than I ever used after an appendectomy, wisdom tooth removal, or birthing two babies 26 minutes apart), but it seems like we might be seeing the light at the end of the tunnel. Of course just as we were all finally feeling slightly less cold-flu yuckiness, Theo got hit with a 24-hour stomach flu bug on Thursday/Friday (honestly I'm so done with vomit). But with any luck we're over that incubation period and the chances of the rest of us catching it are slim.
Theo and I baked a cake yesterday while Nolan and dad ran errands, and I actually have no idea what type of frosting/decor is going on it so I'd better get to it before I lose all ambition.
Let's do this again soon, k?
