NBA PLAYOFFS: Westbrook suffers shooting woes in loss; Toronto evens series
By Joel Odom
The Oregonian, Portland, Ore.
(TNS) — CJ McCollum's three-pointer to beat the halftime buzzer tied the game and erased what had been a 10-point Oklahoma City Thunder lead.
Damian Lillard's three-pointer to beat the third quarter buzzer gave the Trail Blazers their largest lead to that point, a 16-point edge.
By the end of the fourth quarter, no Blazers buzzer-beater was needed.
Portland's backcourt duo combined for 62 points, and the Blazers pulled away from the Thunder in the second half to win 114-94 Tuesday night at the Moda Center and take a 2-0 series lead in their first-round NBA Western Conference playoff series.
Russell Westbrook, Paul George and the Thunder again struggled from three-point range and were left to return home and try to regroup for Game 3, set for Friday night in Oklahoma City.
McCollum led the Blazers with 33 points, while adding eight rebounds and five assists. Lillard added 29 points, six assists, three steals and two blocks.
Enes Kanter, who had been huge for the Blazers in Game 1, battled foul trouble and finished with six points and five rebounds. But on a night when the Blazers got such big contributions from their stars, it didn't matter.
After pulling even at halftime, Portland outscored the Thunder 37-21 in the third quarter to seize control for good.
Five minutes into the second half, Lillard clapped his hands after Westbrook missed a three, and then Lillard dribbled down and drilled a three from 31 feet away that put the Blazers up 69-63 and triggered a Thunder timeout.
When Seth Curry scored his first points of the game on consecutive threes late in the third, Portland's lead swelled to 12.
Despite 27 points from George and a near triple-double from Westbrook, the Thunder couldn't reel in the Blazers in the fourth. Oklahoma City shot a dismal 5 of 28 (17.9 percent) from three-point range.
Moe Harkless finished with 14 points and nine rebounds, and he joined Al-Farouq Aminu and Meyers Leonard in making some solid defensive plays. Aminu and Harkless forced consecutive steals against George early in the third quarter that led to layups and gave the Blazers a 64-58 lead. Leonard had five points and four rebounds in 15 minutes of action.
The Thunder waved the white flag with 3:31 to go and trailing 112-91, with coach Billy Donovan subbing out his starters.
Westbrook finished with 14 points, nine rebounds and 11 assists, but he shot just 5 of 20 overall and 1 of 6 from three-point range. He finished at minus-27 in plus-minus, while his Blazers counterpart, Lillard, was plus-27.
Steven Adams had 16 points and nine rebounds for Oklahoma City.
The Blazers shot 46.7 percent overall and 40.6 percent from beyond the arc (13 of 32). After turning it over 18 times in Game 1, the Blazers reduced their giveaways to 12 in Game 2.
McCollum gave the Blazers an early spark with 11 first-quarter points. Seven of those came during a 9-0 Blazers run that turned an early deficit into a 22-20 lead.
But Oklahoma City shot 54.2 percent (14 of 25) from the field in the opening period to take a 31-26 lead. The Thunder led by as many as 10 in the second quarter, at 46-36, before the Blazers erased that deficit in the final five minutes of the half.
Lillard scored 10 of his 16-first half points during that stretch, including a four-point play after getting fouled on a left-wing three-pointer at the 4:26 mark.
In the final seconds of the half, Lillard drove and kicked it out to McCollum, whose three-pointer beat the buzzer and tied the game at 54-54.
The game got chippy at times, particularly in the first half. Zach Collins and Markieff Morris were whistled for double technicals after exchanging words after the end of the first quarter. Late in the second quarter, Russell Westbrook and Damian Lillard had an exchange after fighting for a loose ball. The play was reviewed, but no fouls were called.
Raptors even series
TORONTO — The Orlando Magic expected the Toronto Raptors' best shot in Game 2.
They certainly got it, and Kawhi Leonard delivered the biggest blow.
Leonard finished with 37 points, and the Raptors scored the first 11 points of the game and rode the early momentum to a 111-82 victory over the Magic in Game 2 of their opening-round playoff series on Tuesday night at Scotiabank Arena.
Point guard Kyle Lowry — scoreless in the series opener — finished with 22 points and seven assists, and Pascal Siakam finished with 19 points to lead the Raptors, who tied the best-of-7 series at 1.
Leonard had 34 points on 14-for-18 shooting after three quarters as the Raptors shot 54.5 percent and led 90-66.
Aaron Gordon finished with 20 points while Terrence Ross had 15 points — all in the first half — for the Magic.
Magic center and leading scorer Nikola Vucevic struggled for the second straight game. He finished with just six points, nearly 15 below his season scoring average.
Still, the Magic leave Toronto with a split and can turn their attention to playing in front of their fans. Game 3 will be Friday at Amway Center — the first playoff game in Orlando since 2012.
But Tuesday belonged to the Raptors, whose defense simply overwhelmed the Magic in the first half. They managed just 39 points and shot 32.5 percent.
Leonard, whose playoff career-high of 43 points came April 22, 2017, against the Grizzlies, scored eight of the Raptors' first 11 points and wound up with 17 at halftime.
The Magic missed their first six shots and committed four turnovers before a Gordon dunk finally got them on the board.
They twice pulled within six (24-18 and 29-23), but after Lowry converted a scooping reverse layup to put the Raptors up 34-23, the Magic couldn't get the deficit under double digits.
It was more uphill climbing for the Magic in the second half.
Marc Gasol's third 3-pointer of the third quarter extended the lead to 79-54 as the Raptors continued to roll.
The lead reached as many as 34 points in the fourth quarter.

We have a very exciting term ahead of us in reception and now that we have fully settled into school we are ready to continue our learning with our friends.
In the Early Years our learning takes place outside as well as inside, regardless of the weather and with the cold weather upon us, we are wrapping ourselves up warm to investigate its effects – freezing, melting and frost. We are engaging in many wintry activities and plan to help the RSPB in their Big Garden Birdwatch at the end of January.
We will find out about the customs and traditions of the Chinese New Year of the pig, joining in with some of their celebratory activities.
At the end of this half term we will join in with the rest of school during 'Arts Week' where the theme will be 'Global Warriors'. We will spend our time becoming involved in activities to help the children become aware of the impact our actions are having on the natural world, looking at how we can reduce, re-use and recycle items, as well as how we can minimise food waste.
Our weekly activities are planned by following the interests of the children and so we are very flexible in the way we work. Each week may see us in a new direction. Of course Easter is at the end of the term so we will no doubt be indulging in some Easter based activities before we enjoy our well-earned holiday.

Smartphone and tablets are becoming ubiquitous and increasingly cheap. These amazing devices typically have considerable computation power and memory, internet connectivity, a variety of high-end sensors (camera, GPS, accelerometer and more) and a touch screen display. All of these built-in peripherals are well integrated and easy to access from software.
All that is really missing in order to use them for robotics applications is a way to connect them to external hardware, such as motors and additional sensors. That way, they can replace traditional microcontrollers and embedded code with something that is more powerful and easier to use.
This workshop will get you get started with using your Android device to connect with several electronic components for building applications starting from blinking an LED to building a Robot. It will be based on the popular IOIO board, which serves as a physical bridge between Android devices and external devices and allows Android apps to be easily written to control them. Programming is done solely in Java, using the standard Android development tools. Workshops includes extensive hands-on session on connecting the Android device to a Robot kit build during the workshop. The workshop will also cover the basics of building simple electronic circuits and introduce useful parts, such as sensors and motors.
The price of the workshop includes a kit containing all the parts needed, which the participants will take home with them. What is not included is an Android device and a development machine (laptop, see FAQ for details).
This 2-day, hands-on workshop will focus on providing Software Developers an opportunity to get some experience with electronics hardware. The workshop assumes no prior electronics experience so anyone with some experience in Software development (Java/Android development) and enthusiasm to start hacking Hardware can attend this workshop.
What will I gain at this workshop?
The workshop will give you the chance to get acquainted with a variety of electronic components such as LEDs, sensors and motors. You will get started with hardware hacking, breadboarding and circuit building and creating your own Robotic System. Each team will be provided with their very own kit with IOIO micro-controller, an awesome Robot kit and a Reference Book to continue hacking away at home.
The workshop takes a hands-on approach, where participants will work on implementing a fully functional robotic system. The actual system is intentionally left unspecified (come up with your own ideas!). However, we will have several suggestions and will be able to provide guidance and assistance.
Bring along a lot of enthusiasm!
Your own compatible Android phone running OS version 4.0 or higher. The IOIO Wiki has an ongoing list of compatible devices.
Laptop for development. Please refer to tutorials and install all the required software.
The participants should follow the Android tutorials at least to the point where they can build, install, and run their own app on their actual Android device. This will help save time on solving installation issues. Please make sure to have JRE 6 (not 7) installed and configured, as the Android development environment has some problems with the later versions.
That's where we can help. Spend a weekend and give a shot at building hardware.
The iRoboticist Workshops are designed to introduce participants to electronics, programming and integrating them to build a hardware system. The main goal is to help kick-start hands-on building.
During the course you will be involved in building hardware systems while understanding the fundamentals of various components, methods and techniques required to build it.

About Manuel Goldring
About Manuel Goldring
"Manuel Goldring is a self-employed freelancer who works from home and follows his passions outside of work.
""I've discovered the difference between making a 'living' and earning a 'life.'"
Maya Angelou, a poet and activist, isn't alone in believing that happiness may be found outside of the workplace. Many proverbs and adages stress the need of striking a good work-life balance. A job is exactly that: a job. Work to live rather than the other way around. The list could go on indefinitely.
Manuel Goldring, on the other hand, sees it as more than cliches. It's more than just a motivational message on a poster. This is something he believes in. It's a way of life for them. After abandoning his work as an accountant, the New Jersey native now spends his days doing only what makes him happy. Manuel Goldring places a high priority on his family, hobbies, and interest in technology.
Family has always came first in the past, but that began to change in March. Manuel Goldring discovered a whole new level of dedication after the birth of his first kid. He finds tranquility and fulfillment in his role as a father. As any new father would imagine, it hasn't been easy. Sleep deprivation and a full-time commitment are difficult obstacles to overcome. In any case, the work is well worth it. One of his greatest delights is waking up to his baby's smile every morning. He's picking up new skills as he goes. Regardless of what others have taught him, he is learning that each child, including his own, is unique. There's no such thing as a one-size-fits-all answer. He is, on the other hand, thrilled by the voyage. He learns something new, engaging, and fulfilling every day.
Manuel Goldring spends his time investigating digital worlds and adjusting to parenthood's new reality. After a long day, he relaxes and decompresses by playing video games. He has enjoyed playing video games since he was a child. As a kid, he was drawn to sports and racing games like Madden and Forza since he was a big fan in real life. He spent the majority of his time doing these things with his sibling. His preferences have evolved as he has grown older. He spends the majority of his time these days playing first-person shooter games. When compared to more well-known games, his favorite, Escape from Tarkov, is a more complex and hard take on the genre.
Manuel Goldring swaps seats when he isn't in his gaming chair. This one is on the open highway. Bicycling was another of his boyhood hobbies. When he was about eight years old, he began riding a cheap box-store bike in the suburbs. He currently rides a Cannondale bicycle that is top of the line. His cycling skills aren't the only thing he's improved. Manuel Goldring encourages me to take longer walks on the streets these days so that I can fully immerse myself in nature. Despite his busy schedule, he makes an effort to ride at least once a week.
But it isn't all fun and games. Manuel Goldring recognizes the significance of putting one's own health first, but it's not all fun and games. He devotes the same amount of time and effort to his profession. Despite having earned undergraduate and graduate degrees in accounting from Fairleigh Dickinson University, he has changed careers. He's currently studying for his IT qualifications. This field is more in keeping with his other passions, and it lays a greater emphasis on his happiness. Manuel Goldring remembers being the ""go-to"" when something needed to be fixed or put together even as a child. This pattern of behavior persisted as I grew older. He builds every gaming PC he uses from the ground up. He is always on the hunt for new technology advancements and gadgets that will assist him in his role as a parent. He is interested in smart monitors and learning aids that will improve his child's growth.
Manuel Goldring intends to keep working hard. It will not, however, be primarily for financial advantage. He is uninterested in progressing to the next level. He'll merely grind for the purpose of self-gratification. Family, health, and his objectives will always come first. Happiness is the most important full-time job of all."


The Jets have a passing game worth taking note of and Anderson is the deep threat in their attack. If you need a flex player to have on your roster that has big play upside, Robby Anderson may be your guy. Six catches, 104 yards, and a touchdown from Anderson this past week has shown what kind of player he can be down the stretch this season.
He has become the workhorse back in the Ravens' offense. He will get 15+ touches a game and should see solid production. If you need to take a flier on a running back, Collins is on the upswing.
The Colts are heading to the part of the season that they will start getting their future players more opportunities to really evaluate their young talent. Mack saw some solid looks against the Bengals and rewarded the Colts with some big plays and a touchdown. Expect that to continue as the Colts begin the process of continuing to look to the future.
With Marshawn Lynch being out, Washington emerged as a valuable offensive weapon for the Raiders. Expect the Oakland coaching staff to try and get him more touches to expand the offense to try and kick-start it with some better consistency.
Zach Miller's injury was horrific and I hope he comes back stronger. This means that Shaheen is now the guy in Chicago and should be a main threat from a rookie quarterback looking for a big security blanket in the passing game. He is a tight end to stash (especially in dynasty) in case he breaks out.


Cook the Canadian bacon according to the package directions; set aside.
Heat olive oil in a skillet and add the mushrooms, onion, and green pepper, and cook until vegetables are soft.
Pour the beaten eggs into a skillet, then add the green pepper–onion–mushroom mix. Scramble and cook the mixture until the egg is fully cooked.
To serve, place the egg scramble on the bottom half of an English muffin. Top with a slice of Canadian bacon and the other half of the English muffin.


Conceptual photos using Korean Hangeul characters illuminated by strobe light during long exposure to make them glow.
In this project, I intend to see phonetic letters of Hangeul as ideograms and hieroglyphs, in order to unravel meanings of nature from them and communicate. By observing nature, and furthermore empathizing with it, its linguistic essence can be recognized and visualized into Hangeul symbols.
Light was used to express linguistic features containing complex elements of voice, wave, shape and more. Strobe light was used during long-exposed state so that certain forms will glow with light, and to emphasize the feeling of breath, aura and wave, light smearing effect was used.


6 Reasons Why Exercise Makes You Happy : Everyone knows that exercising has tons of health benefits, like ensuring your weight remains within the healthy range, energizing your body, and maintaining your youth into old age.
You may have also realized that you feel less stressed or anxious and inexplicably happier after exercising. Well, the truth is that workouts make you feel happy.
You can remember some incidents in which you were too tired and could barely think of working out. After mustering your will power, you got into the exercising mode and took to the trails or tracks for a jog, or went for a brisk walk. The resulting renewed energy came from this exercise. It is recommended to do everything you can and to work out even when tired or not motivated, as you will be more energetic at the end of your activity. It goes without saying that more energy means more happiness.
Working out encourages your brain to release dopamine, which is a neurotransmitter in the brain vital for pleasure and happiness. The levels of dopamine keep dropping, especially with aging, and it is critical to engage in activities that prompt the production of this happy chemical.
Disliking your body shape or appearance can significantly dampen your self confidence. In addition, nearly all other areas of your life—relationships, career, and more—are affected negatively, and you are less likely to live up to your goals and aspirations, thus becoming totally unhappy. If you start exercising and realize your body is drastically transforming, you may then start to like the new you, resulting in a great boost to your self-esteem. Moreover, you become stronger and more independent. With such high confidence, you obviously become happier. As you work on your shape and looks, you cannot go wrong adding in some steroids from Valkyrie Online to help you get that great physique that you so desire, therefore becoming a happier man or woman.
Working out not only reduces stress in the short-term but in the longterm as well. When you exercise, you subject your body to low-level stress by accelerating your heart rate and provoking several hormonal changes. Having exposed yourself adequately to exercise stresses, your body becomes much better in dealing with the other stressors that come up from time to time.
From studies conducted in recent years on the effect of exercising, it has emerged that people with anxiety issues not only get an immediate positive change in their mood from exercising, but that they also benefit from long-term relief, which is similar to the results from meditation or talk therapy. Exercising can also allow you to get some alone time, giving you clarity of thought and tranquillity.
Are you suffering from constant insomnia? You can consider taking a break from your sleeping pills and try exercising. Having an active lifestyle and working out frequently improves the sleeping patterns of those with sleeping problems. You will not only get a good night's sleep, but you will also have the zest to get out of bed each morning and go perform your daily duties. Quality sleep will make you feel relaxed, calm, and happy.

"For me, this work is all about taking care of patients. I want to continue to learn, improve my skills, and be a better doctor so I can help someone I wouldn't have been able to help a few years ago."
A renowned physician in the field of gynecologic oncology, Dr. Thomas Caputo grew up in a family of physicians in New Jersey. His father and two brothers are doctors. He credits the mentorship of his father and medical school faculty members with motivating him to follow his heart in specializing in Ob/Gyn.
His first experience as a physician, after completing medical school and his post-doctoral residency, was in the United States Army, where he became Chief of the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology of the U.S. Army Hospital in Vicenza, Italy. Dr. Caputo is grateful for the life-changing experience of living and practicing medicine in Europe.
After leaving the Army, Dr. Caputo received a fellowship to study gynecologic oncology at the Emory University School of Medicine in Atlanta, where he also served as a clinical instructor of obstetrics and gynecology. The Emory fellowship led to his appointment as the first chief of the division of Gynecologic Oncology at Albany (NY) Medical Center.
Dr. Caputo left Albany Medical Center in 1982 to accept a position on the faculty at Weill Cornell Medical College and as an attending physician in the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology at NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital/Weill Cornell Medical Center.
Recognized many times as one of the "Best Doctors in New York" by New York Magazine, Dr. Caputo has also been named one of the Best Doctors in America (Naifeh & Smith, 2004), one of the Top Doctors for Women (Ladies Home Journal, 2002), and one of the Top Doctors in the New York Metropolitan Area (Castle Connolly Medical Guide Ltd., 1999-2010). He has won many awards for excellence in teaching and research.

Q: Calculate Length Totals in ArcGIS based on field values I am having trouble finding the right words to describe this problem but here goes:
I have 3 values (120,270,380) in my field called operatingvolt for every segment of conductor. Each segment of conductor has a feederid to identify what system it belongs to. I would like to use ArcGIS to calculate the length of each segment by operatingvolt and feederid.The goal is to get a table that looks like this:

The problem I run into is that if the feederid does not have an operatingvolt then the length will not be computed. This happens frequently since not every feederid has every operatingvolt value. I would like a length computed for every feederid at every possible operatingvolt even if the length is 0.
I also would like to be able to create a model that completes this task. I have  limited knowledge of python.

A: If your trying to obtain the line (vector) segment linear distance.  Project the feature class, add a field and then use the Calculate Geometry function to obtain the length.

A: With the advanced license you can use the frequency tool to produce the table you want. The analysis fields are feeder and voltage, the summary field is length
Any nulls in either field will be aggregated and reported in the table.
You can add the tool to a model.http://pro.arcgis.com/en/pro-app/tool-reference/analysis/frequency.htm

A: As @PolyGeo comments you can do this with Summary Statistics with any license level. Use

*

*the Length field as statistics field with the 'SUM' statistic type

*the FeederId and OperatingVolt as case fields.

You will get the total length of all combinations of FeederID and OperatingVolt values.

This is a single step process so I don't see much added value in putting it in a model, nevertheless you can drag and drop the tool in a ModelBuilder and if necessary turn some parameters (input table, output table, statistic fields, case fields) to model parameters, so you can modify them at runtime:

A: I was able to get this done by creating a model with many tedious steps but it worked. Basically, I selected any Feeders without a certain voltage then merged and summarized the table with the total lengths of each Feeder of that voltage. This gave me a length value for each Feeder.

Discover why the Debian Linux distribution is really so favored and exactly why server admins select it for their servers.
Debian is an OS which uses the Linux kernel. Although it is usually installed on desktop computers, it's being used on a growing number of web servers too. The reason is that it's really stable, so a server running it will not need to be restarted for months. Debian is also considered to be among the most secure Operating Systems out there, since security patches are released within days after a problem is discovered. This is possible since thousands of skilled developers work for the Debian project on a voluntary basis and not only do they work on the OS itself, they also provide 24/7 support by using special mailing lists and reply within 20 min to any question. In this light, you'll have an outstanding level of support directly from the developers who know their own platform in depth, and not from a third-party support team. Debian is also one of several Linux releases with the highest number of packages - more than 30,000. Since the Operating System is free to use, you are able to modify both the core as well as all of the packages in any way you see fit. Also, you will not be required to pay any kind of license fees.
When you need a server running Debian, you can opt for any of the virtual private server packages that we supply and choose this Operating System on the registration page. You can select the 32-bit or the 64-bit Debian release, because we give you the option to pick the right one, based on the software that you would like to install on your server once it is set up. If you are more tech-savvy, you can get a Debian-powered VPS with no Control Panel, and you'll have full root access and you're able to manage the content and the software through SSH. In case you are less experienced, yet you would like to use an application that requires Debian, you'll be able to choose our Hepsia hosting Control Panel on the order page and you will be able to manage the entire server like a standard shared hosting account. In addition, you can benefit from the optional Managed Services upgrade that we offer, because it includes weekly Operating System updates performed by our administrators, among various other useful things.
32-bit and 64-bit versions of Debian are available on our dedicated server order page and you will be able to select any of them with only a single click for your new machine, depending on what software environment the applications which you wish to use require for top notch performance. You can also choose if our Hepsia Control Panel should be installed on the server or whether it should come without any Control Panel at all. The first option is suitable for less experienced users who want a Debian-powered server, yet wish to manage it like a shared website hosting account, while the second option is good for more advanced users who wish to have more control, since 'no Control Panel' stands for only Debian and the Apache web server software, but no other software set up on the server at all. We will also save your time and effort with the Managed Services upgrade, because it includes regular Operating System updates, so that you will have a secure and stable Debian installation.


Are you hosting a holiday party this holiday season for your loved ones? It is important to ensure that your home is safe for family members of all ages, including your aging loved ones. We've developed a list of steps that you can take and home health care items that you can purchase to prepare your home for the holidays!
It is important to declutter the area that your family will be travelling through and in. The more items that you have in the space the more chance that there is for someone to bump into something or trip and fall. Clearing an area can be a simple and easy way to keep your loved ones safe this holiday season!
Bathrooms can be a dangerous place for anyone. That is why it is important to ensure that it is a safe space. There are several different bathroom safety products that can transform your bathroom. There are many different items that you can install or place in your bathroom to ensure that your guests are safe during their visit to your house over the holiday season.
Grab bars are an add-on that you can place in your shower to provide extra support to the user. These bars are available in a suction cup form that are easy to install and remove after they are no longer needed. They are also available in multiple sizes and in a steel or white powder coat that can be permanently installed with services available upon request.
Shower Head Extensions make showering much easier for those with mobility issues. If you have a shower chair in the shower, this extension on the shower head will allow the individual bathing to point the water where they would like it without having to adjust the chair or the pressure of the water.
Tub Mats are a simple addition to any bathtub. These mats stick to the slippery bottom of the tub and prevent all users from stepping into the tub and falling. The surface is smooth on the feet but also provides the support that is needed to ensure safety!
Looking for something a little more helpful than a tub mat? Tub Rails are a great addition to your bathroom to ensure user safety. These rails allow for the person using the bathtub to easily get in and out of the tub without slipping and falling.
Versaframes, also known as Toilet Safety Frames, are a great way to provide your guests with added safety and comfort in your bathroom. These devices are secured to the toilet and add rails and hand grips to the side of the toilet so that the individual can ease themselves into a sitting position and assist themselves when standing back up. The added arm support can really help with sitting and standing issues!
Raised Toilet Seats are a simple but appreciated addition to a bathroom. Most standard toilet seats are low which can be a pain for those who have a hard time sitting and standing. The added height of the seat can greatly improve the users experience.
Bath Seats are a simple and cost effective solution for those with mobility issues. Standing in a shower or climbing in and out of a bathtub can be quite the challenge for some people. A bath seat allows the user to comfortably and safely sit in the shower so that they can rest and enjoy.
If your aging loved one visits often and suffers from mobility issues, a bath lift may be a smart purchase. Bath lifts assist individuals in getting in and out of the tub, preventing them from encountering any safety issues while bathing.
If your family is planning to stay for an extended period of time, it may be a good idea to add some larger mobility aids into your home. This will help put your mind at ease and make your aging loved one feel more at home while they are staying with you!
A lift chair is a type of chair that has a remote control on it. This remote can be used to lift the chair to standing position which allows the user to sit and stand with ease. This remote also controls the reclining feature on the chair to provide added comfort for the user.
If your family is staying for a long period of time and suffers from mobility issues a hospital bed may be a worthwhile purchase. Hospital beds make it easy for the individual to get in and out of the bed as well as lift the head and feet of the bed to provide extra comfort.
Transport chairs are a type of wheelchair that can allow your loved one to move around your home with ease. These chairs are easily stored and folded so that they can be stored or they can be put in the trunk of a car. This means that you can bring your aging loved one to the store with you to shop for the main family dinner course!
If you're looking to ensure that you and your loved ones are safe this holiday season and in daily life, visit the experts at ADAPT Home Health Care. Our team of experts will help assist you and determine which items and steps are right for you and your loved ones! Call us or visit us today to start preparing for the holiday season.
Are you in the market for a wheelchair? Whether it's your first wheelchair or your fourth, there is a lot of information to consider before making your purchase. A wheelchair is a long-term investment so it is important that you consider all the options that are available. When you become informed about the options that are out there you can make an educated decision on what type of wheelchair you are going to purchase.
Your wheelchair has to be designed to work for you. That's why it is important to consider an individual's age, gender, current mobility, as well as strength. It is also important to know how the wheelchair is going to be used. If the wheelchair is just going to be used around the house then you would be looking for a different wheelchair that would be used on sidewalks and pavement. When you consider all of these factors you will have a better idea of what kind of wheelchair will work best for you and your life.
Wheelchairs come with the option of many different wheels. These different wheels are designed for different individuals and for different types of mobility needs. If you plan to use the wheelchair around the house on hardwood you would opt for a different type of wheel than if you planned to use the wheelchair to play basketball on a concrete court.
The comfort level of the seat is an important part of choosing a wheelchair. If you are going to be sitting in it for several hours a day, the cushion on the seat must be plush and comfortable to ensure the user isn't in any pain. Take your time to test out multiple options and ask questions so that you are sure this is the right wheelchair for you!
If you're on the hunt for a wheelchair in the Greater Toronto Area, contact ADAPT Home Health Care today! We have two locations in Mississauga and one in Brampton to better assist you in finding the perfect wheelchair for you. Our team will help to evaluate your current situation, listen to your wants and needs, and find you the perfect wheelchair to fit your life and provide you with the ease of mobility that you desire!
Home Health Care Products: What are They?
Mobility is a large part of our independence. As we age, we often lose elements of our mobility which can make us feel trapped or limited in our homes and in our everyday lives. There are many different solutions to this problem however. There are many different types of home health care products available at your local Adapt Home Health Care store that can help increase your comfort and mobility in your home and in your everyday life. This blog will discuss some of the many items that you can purchase, or rent, in order to live your life to its full potential!
Wheelchairs are an excellent way to improve your mobility around your home and outside of your home. There are different types of wheelchairs that you can purchase, depending on the purpose you need them to serve.
Manual Wheelchairs are typically used for short distance travelling or for individuals who do not need to permanently use the chair. These chairs are controlled by the user turning the back wheels with their hands and manually propelling themselves forward. There are different types of manual wheelchairs including standard and transport. Transport wheelchairs are used to transport people from room to room or a car to a doctors appointment. These chairs are typically lighter and can be conveniently folded and stored. This however means that they are less padded and comfortable for the user and therefore only meant to be used for short and quick trips.
There are many different types of wheelchairs. That is why it is important to speak to an expert at ADAPT Home Health Care before purchasing yours!
Transport chairs are different from wheelchairs because they have 4 small wheels instead of 2 small wheels and 2 large wheels. These chairs are designed for a caregiver to push the individual in from one location to another, which is where it gets its name from. Although these chairs are not made to be sat in for long periods of time, they are still padded with arm rests to insure the user is comfortable!
Walkers are a great way to increase the mobility that you have in your home and outside. These devices give you the support you need to walk independently and confidently around the house or your local store. Many of them are lightweight, durable, and conveniently fold up so that they can be stored in a closet or in the trunk of a car on drives!
Rollators are similar to walker's but instead of four posts touching the ground, they have wheels. This makes it easier for the user to apply weight onto the hand grips and push the device forward. Instead of having to lift the unit up and place it forward, the user can simply glide the device forward and follow behind it. Rollators are a better option for those who suffer from severe issues walking.
Hospital beds are a great option for individuals who have trouble getting in and out of bed or require sleeping positions that cannot easily be achieved on a normal mattress. There are many different types of hospital beds available depending on what the individual requires. Some are power operated, others are manual, and some have lift features. If you're considering purchasing a hospital bed for you or a loved one, contact one of our team members today to find out which one best suits you!
There are several other items available in our stores or on our website to help improve the safety of your bathroom!
Transitioning from the sitting position to the standing position can be a difficult task. That's why lift chairs were created! These power chairs can be adjusted from the sitting to the standing position, with the push of a button. That means no more aches, pains, and struggles to sit down or stand up! Some of these chairs also have the option to recline and even elevate the feet above the heart for those with circulation issues. You can also find versions with heated seats for muscle tension and others with massage components built in!
Maintaining a healthy lifestyle is extremely important, especially as we age. An important part of staying healthy is reducing our risk of heart attacks and strokes. One way to reduce this risk is to equip ourselves with the proper home health care products. This includes finding the proper compression therapy garments for those who need them. If you suffer from tired and swollen legs, are pregnant, constantly on your feet, or an athlete, compression garments may be an ideal product for you! There are a wide selection of styles and types to choose from and a knowledgeable staff member at ADAPT Home Health Care can help you select the right one for you!
Similar to compression garments, Lymphedema garments compress the area they are placed on. The difference is in the design and purpose of the garment. ADAPT Home Health Care is also ADP approved, which means that individuals seeking Lymphedema Garments can qualify for government assistance!

Living a healthy life is extremely important. There are many things that you can do to improve your health. Keeping your blood circulation properly functioning is a large part of maintaining a healthy life. This blog will look at the importance of blood circulation and how to ensure you are living your healthiest life!
Blood circulation moves oxygenated blood away from the heart and pumps it throughout the body. Then the deoxygenated blood pumps back through the body and towards the heart. This provides all the bodies organs and tissues with oxygenated blood to keep them properly functioning. This means that blood circulation is critical in almost every part of the body and keeping it functioning.
Proper circulation is an important part of keeping your body happy and healthy. When your body is properly circulating oxygenated blood the body is able to keep a stable temperature, maintain a good pH balance, transport necessary nutrients, and remove waste! This means that proper blood circulation is a large part of keeping the entire human body happy and healthy. By transporting red blood cells throughout the body, proper blood circulation allows our organs to have the proper energy that allows us to complete even simple day-to-day tasks. This additional energy can also help give us the energy we need to workout, which is another great way to increase blood circulation! Increased blood flow is important because it benefits our organs. Better blood flow is good for muscles, the heart, and the arteries.
Blood flow and circulation increases to certain areas of your body which helps promote cell growth and organ function.
Your skin benefits from an increase in blood circulation. Healthy skin is more capable of fighting off bacteria and infection that it may come in contact with.
When your heart is working at its full potential, your heart rate lowers, heart muscles relax and your blood pressure flows evenly and smoothly.
If you are experiencing any of these symptoms, it is important to visit your doctor. There are many ways to improve blood circulation, but there may be an underlying medical issue that is causing your poor blood circulation. If this is the case, it is important that a doctor diagnosis' you so that you can begin improving your health.
These issues are very serious and you should contact your doctor if you think that you are suffering from any of the above listed issues.
Another cause of poor circulation is Lymphedema. This disease can lead to many other complications beyond poor circulation and it is therefore important to take the proper steps to keep your body happy and healthy.
Lymphedema is a medical condition that causes swelling in one or more of an individual's extremities. This swelling is caused by impaired flow in the lymphatic system. This specialized network of vessels helps collect excess lymph fluid from the body and filter it through the lymph nodes. However if it is not functioning properly, then the body will react to the excess lymph fluid and swell.
Even introducing a few of these concepts into your daily routine will help with improving your blood circulation!
What is a Lymphedema Garment?
A Lymphedema garment is a garment that compresses the affected area and promotes the improved flow of lymph fluid.
If you are looking for a Lymphedema garment, visit one of our three locations today to have yours properly fitted by one of our certified compression therapy fitters!
At ADAPT Home Health Care, all of our home health care specialists and pharmacists are trained as certified compression therapy fitters. This means that we can provide you with the best option for helping you with your compression needs!

What is a Lift Chair and Why do I Need One?
As people get older, chronic conditions such as arthritis make moving around more difficult. Some seniors also have movement disorders or are recovering from issues, such as strokes, that impact mobility. A person's sense of balance can also decrease with age, which increases the risk of falls. The following tips can help you care for a senior with mobility issues.
For seniors to be able to live at home as long as possible, functional mobility is essential. Each year, one in three seniors over the age of 65 experience a fall.
Functional mobility is one of the most important factors to helping seniors to remain in their homes as long as possible. Each year, one-third of the population over age 65 experiences a fall. After a fall, seniors often suffer from decreased confidence and a decline in mobility.
Are you finding that you have more trouble bending or reaching now than you did a few years ago? Do you find that your legs are stiff, and walking is difficult first thing in the morning or after sitting for a while? Nearly 50% of seniors develop poor mobility at some point, mainly due to changes in the structures of joints, bones, and muscles. These parts are all interconnected and dependent on each other to work properly, which means that a problem with one part can lead to issues with others.
Is it Time to Consider a Mobility Aid?
This can oftentimes be a touchy subject to bring up to an aging parent, a loved one or even oneself. The thought that you are getting older and can't move like you used to can be a scary one. However, reduced mobility is an inevitability for many people, and a walker, rollator, or wheelchair can help make that transition much smoother. The use of a mobility aid can also promote healthy aging by allowing its user to continue to partake in meaningful social, cultural, and physical activities.

Die Bryant University ist eine private Universität mit Sitz in Smithfield im US-Bundesstaat Rhode Island. Bis 2004 war sie unter dem Namen Bryant College bekannt. 2019 waren über 3700 Studenten an der Universität eingeschrieben. Es werden die Abschlüsse Bachelor of Arts und Bachelor of Science sowie Masterabschlüsse im Geschäftswesen, Steuerwesen und im Rechnungswesen angeboten.

Geschichte
Die Bryant University wurde 1863 als Außenstelle des Bryant & Stratton College gegründet, das in mehreren Bundesstaaten Lehrstellen unterhielt. 1916 wurde der Campus verkauft und mit der Rhode Island Commercial School zusammen gelegt. Die Universität war ab 1949 gemeinnützig und bot ab 1969 ihr erstes Master-Programm an. 1971 verließ die Universität den Campus im Stadtzentrum von Providence und nahm ihren heutigen Standort in Betrieb. Tupperware-Gründer Earl Silas Tupper stellte hierfür 1,73 Quadratkilometer Land zur Verfügung, auf denen sich bis zu diesem Zeitpunkt Siedlerhöfe befanden. Durch diesen Umzug kam die bis heute anhaltende Bryant Archway Tradition auf: Der Bryant gewidmete Torbogen des alten Campus wurde auf dem neuen Campus wieder aufgestellt. Schnell kam das Gerücht auf, vor dem Hochschulabschluss durch den Torbogen zu gehen gefährde diesen Abschluss. Seither haben sich Trampelpfade beidseits des Bogens gebildet, was ihm zur lokalen Berühmtheit verhalf.

Einen deutlichen Aufschwung erfuhr die Universität unter der Leitung ihres Präsidenten Ronald Machtley, der von 1996 bis 2020 im Amt war. Er gründete neue Fakultäten und erneuerte die bis zu seinem Amtsantritt 1996 bereits existenten. Darüber hinaus errichtete er die neue Bibliothek, ein Sportzentrum, einen Marketing & IT-Komplex, ein Studentenwohnheim und ein interreligiöses Zentrum. Er erweiterte die Sportfelder und renovierte die wichtigen Klassenräume sowie die Student Union. Nennenswert ist hierbei auch die Erhöhung der finanziellen Ausstattung der Universität um 169 Millionen Dollar auf 171 Millionen Dollar bis 2007.

2010 wurde die Universität überregional bekannt, da 34 Studenten wegen Marihuana-Besitzes festgenommen wurden und die Universität damit auf Rang 4 innerhalb der USA landete, im Vorjahr sogar auf dem zweiten Rang.

Sunderland owner Stewart Donald says that he could approach Chris Coleman over a return as manager of the Black Cats.
Sunderland owner Stewart Donald has suggested that Chris Coleman could come into contention for a return to the North-East outfit.
Last month, Coleman was removed from his position in the dugout at the Stadium of Light after the Black Cats were relegated from the Championship.
However, Donald has revealed that it was not his decision to part company with the Welshman and has claimed that he may look to reappoint the 47-year-old.
At a press conference, Donald said: "Potentially, we would look to speak to Chris. There's a view of whether or not League One is Chris's domain, but when we've looked at the list of people who have applied, and you say you want to speak to three or four people, I think Chris would potentially be in those three or four.
"It wasn't us [who sacked Coleman], and I wouldn't rule out potentially talking to Chris. We've got one week, we believe, to get ourselves organised. From a fans' perspective, Chris is obviously the visual one."
Donald has also revealed that Sunderland are now 'debt-free' ahead of featuring in League One.

The Judge ruled in favour of the claimants and overturned the Council's decision to produce a non-statutory local plan. The Council appealed the judgment and the Court of Appeal heard the case on 23 and 24 June 2005.
The Court of Appeal issued its judgement on 31 October 2005 (external link) when it allowed the Council's appeal. Accordingly the Council were not required to pursue the making of a statutory local plan to a public inquiry and continued with the non-statutory plan.
The Court of Appeal refused the Claimants' application for permission to appeal to the House of Lords.
At its meeting on 14 December 2005, the Council approved the Non-Statutory Wealden Local Plan 2005 as an Interim Guide for Development Control purposes. The Council did not progress this Plan any further through the statutory process.

Cities Should Think About Trees As Public Health Infrastructure
Planting trees is an incredibly cheap and simple way to improve the well-being of people in a city. A novel idea: Public health institutions should be financing urban greenery to support well-being and air quality.

Think of a tree-lined street in the midst of a busy city. It feels like something of a treasure: hushed, cool, and sheltered from noise and sidewalk glare.
These leafy streets cannot afford to be seen as a luxury, argues a new report from The Nature Conservancy. Trees are sustainability power tools: They clean and cool the air, regulate temperatures, counteract the urban "heat island" effect, and support water quality and manage flow. Yes, they look pretty, but they also deliver measurable mental and physical health benefits to concrete-fatigued city dwellers.
So with evidence to back up all the benefits of urban greenery, TNC set out to answer, in this report, the question of how cities can develop innovative financial structures and policies to plant more trees.

It's a particularly pressing question now, because despite overwhelming evidence testifying to the environmental and health benefits of urban trees, their presence is declining in cities across the U.S. Around 4 million urban trees die or disappear each year, and replanting efforts have failed to keep pace, even though a 2016 study on California from the U.S. Forest Service found that every $1 spent on planting trees delivers about $5.82 in public benefits.
Because urban trees are often slotted into the "luxury" or "nice to have" category in city budgeting decisions–certainly less prioritized than public safety and infrastructure maintenance–funding is often inadequate, and fails to treat trees as a long-term investment, and certainly not one that can deliver health benefits. The standard rate of investment in trees is around one-third of a percent of a city's budget, says Rob McDonald, TNC cities scientist and lead author on the report. "It's not enough to just talk about why trees are important for health," McDonald says. "We have to start talking about the systemic reasons why it's so difficult for these sectors to interact–how the urban forestry sector can start talking to the health sector, and how we can create financial linkages between the two."
TNC estimates that coming up with the capital necessary to maintain our current urban canopy, and expand it to the point where it creates consistent health benefits, would require an annual investment, on average, of $8 per person–a sum that would just about double current municipal tree-planting budgets. That figure is hypothetical and meant to suggest not that funding for trees should actually come from U.S. residents, but that the project is well within the scope of affordability.
What if, McDonald asks, that funding could come from the health sector? A 2013 study found that urban trees remove enough particulate matter from the air to create up to $60 million worth of reductions in healthcare needs at the city level. If public health spending in cities increased by just 0.1% or $10 per person, that would create enough public investment to finance the maintenance and expansion of urban forests and deliver the resulting health benefits. Again, this is just a rough model, but the case for treating trees as infrastructure that supports public health, and eventually could reduce the need for spending in that sector, is strong.

There's a wrinkle in this idea, McDonald says, and it derives from the fact that while cities are the agencies that pay for trees, they do not necessarily oversee health spending. That often falls to the state, or large local insurers. "But one big goal of this report is to get a variety of health agencies to see that they should be participating in the urban greening conversation," McDonald says. In fact, the Affordable Care Act has created a $16 billion prevention fund to be funneled into communities working on widespread health-supportive initiatives; urban trees, McDonald says, could fall under that purview. And Kaiser Permanente, a large insurer in Northern California, announced last year a $2 million investment in public parks in low-income communities in the Bay Area.
Diversifying funding sources for urban greenery–and casting trees as a health investment–could also begin to close the socioeconomic gap in access to parks and green space, too. A 2013 UC Berkeley study found that compared to white people, black people were 52% more likely to live in sparsely shaded, and consequently, much hotter, parts of the city, and have less access to green spaces. While initiatives like New York City's Million Trees NYC have made a concerted effort to create more equity when it comes to green space in the city, often, trees are added to neighborhoods only at the behest of community groups. Those with more financial resources, McDonald says, are often more likely to make and be granted those requests.
Creating greener cities cannot be the responsibility of the health sector alone; McDonald says it will be crucial for urban forestry departments to more fully integrate the health benefits of their trees into messaging and goals in order to break down city agency silos and communicate more effectively with urban health and planning departments. And of course, as more and more cities develop strategies to create resilience against climate change, a healthy urban canopy will be a hugely necessary component.

Robert Motherwell, a major figure of the Abstract Expressionist generation, encompassed both the expressive brushwork of action painting and the breadth of scale and saturated hues of color field painting. He was a member of the New York School, a term he coined, which also included Philip Guston, Willem de Kooning, Jackson Pollock, and Mark Rothko.
Studio with "Elegy to the Spanish Republic no. 100 (revisited)".
During the late 1940s and 1950s Motherwell spent much of his time lecturing and teaching; he taught at Black Mountain College, NC, in 1950, and from 1951 to 1959 at Hunter College, New York. He also worked on three influential editorial projects: the Documents of Modern Art series, which he initiated in 1944 and which included his most important literary contribution to the history of modern art, the Dada Painters and Poets: An Anthology (New York, 1951); Possibilities magazine, from 1947; and Modern Artists in America (New York, 1951), which he co-authored with Ad Reinhardt.
Motherwell's path to becoming an abstract artist was through philosophy, art history, and poetry. He studied at Stanford, Harvard, and then Columbia, where he was introduced to émigré Surrealists (including Matta) by art historian Meyer Schapiro. His particular genesis as an abstractionist has its basis in Mallarmé, whose dictum "To paint, not the thing, but the effect it provides" was pivotal.
As arguably the most eloquent and intellectually accomplished of all the New York School painters, Robert Motherwell's legacy is significant not only for the importance of his paintings, but also for the breadth and influence of his writing, editing and teaching.

On religion: Is there really a heaven?
As a pastor, I have talked about and preached about God, heaven and God's love for us many times. But in all of us, there is a "doubting Thomas." The question is: are God and heaven real, and ultimately, will we go to heaven when we die? This is something I struggled with for years.
Several years ago, my 86-year-old mother was rushed to the hospital. I was told she had the last stages of inoperable colon cancer. We knew she had just a couple of days left here on earth. My wife and I prayed for healing for her, as did our prayer community. Within a few days, the doctor said her death was imminent. My mother was not responsive, just lying in that hospital bed with her eyes closed and breathing heavily.
Was she going to heaven? Would she see my dad who died 15 years earlier? I prayed for peace and for a holy death for her, and for me to know that heaven is real.
Little did she know my mom always wanted to be a harpist, but could never afford that instrument. She loved harp music. I said, "Of course," with tears streaming down my face.
And with that beautiful smile still on her face, she slowly closed her eyes. We watched her vitals on the monitors slowly decrease and ultimately stop.
We looked around to thank Carol for coming to play, but she apparently had already left. We went out to the nurses' station to inquire where Carol had gone so we could thank her, but each nurse said she didn't know of any Carol, or of anyone who played the harp for patients. Carol was God's angel sent to us.
I firmly believe in heaven and that there is a place made for you and me. All you have to do is accept God in your life.
May you be blessed this Lenten season.
