The compatible 15MM Heated Tube for the DreamStation Heated Humidifier, for DreamStation Pro and Auto CPAP Machines.
The Heated Tube by Philips Respironics is specially designed to maintain a consistent temperature and pressure throughout the process of the air leaving the humidifier and reaching the mask. It is designed for the DreamStation range by Philips Respironics only, and will not work with any other machines, including alternative models from Philips Respironics.
The purpose of the specially designed heated tubing is to prevent the build up of condensation, also referred to as rainout, whilst keeping the air travelling through the tube at a consistent temperature. The heated tubing can be set to five different temperature settings, with 0 being off and 5 being the warmest temperature setting. If you decide that you do not want the tube to heat but still want to use it as a standard connector tube, then the tube can be set to 0, which means that heat from the tube is disabled.
It is possible to directly connect the tubing to the DreamStation Auto & Pro CPAP machines, however, if the humidifier is not being used, then the hose will not heat so you might want to opt for a standard CPAP tube.
Without the tube, I had water coming into my mouth at night, Now I have the Heated Tube, everything is sorted!
Great product and worth the money!
A quality item that gets rid of the wetness in the mask or tube. No more gurgling or rippling sounds and nice to have un-interupted sleep time. Excellent!
This is a review for the humidifier and heated hose combined, which I bought at the same time, and it is hard to work out which does what. Overall, not exactly cheap, but does the job really well. I had issues with the Dreamstation in that the air being delivered to the mask was cold/cool, and so I was constatntly noticing it. The humidifier/hose mean that the air arriving in the mask now is 'very comfortable' and hardly noticeable. Result. And, with the hose being heated (you can just about feel it being warm to touch), the chances of condensation (hence nasties growing) in the hose is greatly reduced.
This is the specific heated tubing for the Philips Respironics Dreamstation Humidifier. Works as intended and eliminated tube gurgling and rain out compared with using standard tubing. Philips accessories are not cheap but its made well and is of good quality.

Your Jekyll Island bucket list: What to eat, drink and do
Photo by Sara Kendall
Are you longing for an island destination where the trees outnumber the people? Jekyll Island is this place.
The state of Georgia owns Jekyll Island, where 65% of the land is protected, leaving only a small portion for residential and commercial development. This means the island boasts lots of naturally beautiful areas, fewer crowds and a wide buffer between the beaches and the first row of development — giving you plenty of breathing room.

To get onto the island, a daily ($6) or weekly ($28) parking fee is required, as it's considered a state park.
"Money Magazine ranked Jekyll Island as the No.1 travel destination in the United States for 2019, based on its accessibility, pristine environment, fascinating history and overall experience," said John Bennett, Jekyll Island Authority's marketing communications manager. "From miles of wide-open beaches, four award-winning golf courses— and Georgia's only rehabilitation center for endangered sea turtles — there's something for everyone."
Beachview Club Hotel
721 N. Beachview Drive
On a quiet stretch of beach, Beachview Club Hotel is a boutique hotel offering 38 guest suites. Nestled behind live oaks trees covered in Spanish moss, these guest suites range from two queen beds with an efficiency kitchen to a king suite with a private balcony, gas fireplace and full-sized kitchen.
By the newly renovated pool, guests have a variety of places to relax and recharge from cushy loungers to ledge loungers. At night, slip into an Adirondack chair under a live oak tree or warm up around the fire pit.
Holiday Inn Resort

Yes, it's a national hotel chain, but you should consider this resort for being kid and pet-friendly. Spanning a quarter mile across a beautiful beach, Holiday Inn Resort sits on prime oceanfront property. Inside, it features modern coastal style, ample amenities and well-appointed guest rooms and suites.
One king or two queen beds are offered in guest rooms, while suites have oceanfront sitting area separated from the bedroom. Popular kids suites have two bunk beds separated by a pocket door that leads into an oceanfront bedroom and a separate kitchen. Pets are welcome to stay here.
Outside, treat yourself to the pool with an ocean view. Close by is a kids pool and whirlpool. Poolside, refuel at The Anchor on salads, wraps and seafood baskets. For the children, there is a Kids Club and an outdoor playground with slides.

Built in 1888, as a winter retreat for wealthy families — Vanderbilts, Morgans, Pulitzers and Rockefellers, Jekyll Island Club Hotel is still full of Victorian charm. It should come as no surprise that it's on the National Register of Historic Places. Modern amenities include an outdoor pool, croquet lawn and a private beach pavilion. Dine at one of five restaurants and bars.
Jekyll Ocean Club

Inside the market, there are four restaurants — A Sweet Shop Named Sprinkles, Boardwalk Deli, The Hibiscus Cafe and The Love Shack BBQ Shrimp and Yard Bird.

In a nautical themed space, expect attentive service and top-notch seafood entrées such as fish and chips, shrimp and grits and seafood platters. Indoor and outdoor seating is available. Live music can be enjoyed Thursday through Sunday nights.
Driftwood Beach (aka Tree Graveyard)
South of North Loop Trail on North Beachview Drive
Beach erosion has created a somewhat surreal landscape on Driftwood Beach. Trees are completely toppled, exposing what was once their extensive root system, and others leafless and leaning. The brutal force of nature has caused these trees to be beached for years. It's a place where photographs don't do it justice – you must see this in person.
Ride bikes
Locations vary
Bike riding around Jekyll Island. Photo by Sara Kendall

U.S.|Some Texans Fear Border Fence Will Sever Routine of Daily Life
Some Texans Fear Border Fence Will Sever Routine of Daily Life
Naturalists from Los Caminos del Rio have been leading tours of a wildlife refuge in South Texas. Habitats could be destroyed by a fence, they say.Credit...Jessica Kourkounis for The New York Times
By Ralph Blumenthal
McALLEN, Tex., June 15 — Antonio N. Zavaleta, a vice president and professor of anthropology at the University of Texas branch in Brownsville, saw a slight problem in the route of a border fence that federal officials displayed at a community meeting earlier this month.
"Part of our university," Dr. Zavaleta said, "would be on the Mexican side of the fence."
What about traffic between classes, he wondered. "Would the students need to show a passport?"
He was not the only one who was startled. Local leaders throughout South Texas have been voicing puzzlement and alarm at the implications of the barrier, which Congress has authorized the Department of Homeland Security to construct along 370 miles of the United States-Mexico border, including 153 miles in Texas, by December 2008.
Some of the gravest concern involves the effect on wildlife in the 90,000 acres of national refuges in South Texas, where bumper stickers read "No Border Wall" and a group of naturalists, Los Caminos del Rio, has been staging ecotourism forays into a long-closed sanctuary to draw attention to endangered habitats.
Customs and Border Protection officials say that the path of the fence is far from settled and that they are discussing it with local officials.
But maps like the one shown in Brownsville on June 4 by Chief David Aguilar of the Border Patrol put the route along a levee built inland to hold back flooding on the Rio Grande. That location, some here say, would in effect cede to Mexico the land on the other side of the fence up to the official international border, the middle of the Rio Grande.
In Brownsville, Dr. Zavaleta said, that path would cut off not only the International Technology, Education and Commerce campus of the University of Texas and Texas Southmost College, which is in a former shopping center about a mile from the main campus, but also its golf course and a national historic site, Fort Brown, where an upright cannon marks an opening skirmish of the Mexican War.
Even the heavily trafficked bridge between Brownsville and Matamoros, Mexico, would be on the Mexican side of the fence, Dr. Zavaleta said.
He said Chief Aguilar had seemed taken aback by the observations and agreed to review the route.
"Nothing has been finalized yet," said Xavier Rios, a spokesman for Customs and Border Protection. "To say something will be cut off is way premature."
Mr. Rios added that the fence would have many access points to allow monitored passage.
But in Laredo, where Mayor Raul G. Salinas, a former officer for the Federal Bureau of Investigation, has complained of being bypassed, a city spokeswoman, Xochitl Mora Garcia, said that after promising to consult with local officials, federal authorities recently invited contract proposals for construction of the fence.
"What they're saying and doing are two different things," Ms. Garcia said.
In Brownsville, the district clerk, Aurora De La Garza, and a county commissioner, Sofia Benavides — who emerged from a hurricane-planning visit to the Mexican consulate at the university campus that would be isolated — derided officials in Washington as not understanding family ties across the border.
"This is a relationship that cannot be broken by a fence," Ms. Benavides said.
Representative Henry Cuellar, the South Texas Democrat who has been organizing local forums to air grievances, said the Homeland Security Department had become more responsive.
"They may have started off on the wrong foot," Mr. Cuellar said, "but they're trying to work with the locals now."
On Friday, the House passed a bill, now before the Senate, appropriating $37 billion for the Homeland Security Department with a provision, insisted on by Mr. Cuellar and others, requiring federal officials to consult with local communities about the fence, which could cost $2 billion to $49 billion.
Supporters say a fence is crucial to shoring up the nation's southern border. Critics say that a 10-foot-high wall in San Diego is already being scaled by illegal immigrants using ladders, and that technology alone — a virtual fence — could provide much of the same security.
Furthermore, congested areas like Laredo, where development extends to the Rio Grande amid tightly intertwined commercial and social ties to its sister city across the border, Nuevo Laredo, do not lend themselves to a fence.
In an unusual step in the booming border crossroads city of McAllen, the federal Fish and Wildlife Service has taken a role in the debate, providing a rare permit to Los Caminos del Rio (Ways of the River), to run scheduled biking and kayaking outings into the long-restricted Lower Rio Grande National Wildlife Refuge. Members have to announce their visits ahead of time to tip off the Border Patrol and assure protection from the human smugglers who infest the refuge — like, for example, the three jumpy fellows who had just crossed the river from Mexico the other evening to stash a bag of dry clothes for nightfall.
"Don't mess with us or we'll both get messed up," warned one (or words to that effect).
Eric Ellman, executive director of the 17-year-old Los Caminos group, said the strategy was akin to that devised in New York City at the height of the 1970s crime wave.
"Legal activity will displace illegal activity," Mr. Ellman said, maintaining that the presence of ecotourists would make the refuge less appealing to illegal immigrants and drug smugglers.
Bryan R. Wynton, the refuge manager, said he was concerned that a fence could prove ruinous to wildlife relying on the river. "It pretty much destroys 20 years of efforts," he said.
But Mr. Wynton added, "I'm smart enough to know national security is going to trump fish and wildlife management any day, but that doesn't mean I need to throw in the towel."
A morning spent biking and kayaking the refuge with about a dozen members of Los Caminos showcased the diversity of the wildlife. As Lori Humphreys, executive secretary of the group, led the group with an S.U.V. full of gear, and Mel Piñeda, a consultant, followed in a pickup loaded with kayaks, a herd of javelinas bolted into the mesquite. A turkey buzzard circled overhead along with menacing-looking tarantula wasps that lay their eggs inside tarantulas also in evidence from a dried carcass at the side of the road.
Sue Thompson, a local farmer and a member of the North American Butterfly Association, with its own reserve nearby, said she had seen smugglers in the refuge driving up to unload boxes of drugs ferried across the Rio Grande.
Just the evening before, on a run-through of the next morning's nature tour, Mr. Piñeda stumbled across the three men huddling on the shore of the river waiting for dark with their bag of dry clothes.
On the Mexican side, families frolicked in the water, and Mr. Piñeda shouted across, asking what they thought of the wall. "It's an insult," one man shouted back, adding, "We'll make tunnels."
As nightfall came, Napoleon Garza, an armed local caretaker who was patrolling the reserve against feral hogs, warned the visitors to leave.
"There's a lot of dope being run across here," he said.

Shropshire County PCT - Alpha Design & MarketingAlpha Design & Marketing Ltd.
Shropshire County Primary Care Trust briefed Alpha to create a public information campaign to reduce the prescription of antibiotics. Overuse leads to a lack of effectiveness and patients often request a prescription when suffering from minor illnesses. This was a multi-media campaign including buses, billboards, posters in pharmacies, stickers on prescriptions and a landing page for the website.
We created "Immunity in the Community" to communicate the message that, by building up their own resistance without antibiotics, people could help to protect the whole community. The campaign resulted in a 23% reduction in antibiotic prescriptions over the next quarter.

Thanks for the laugh, that's one of the best Feature Requests I think I've seen yet.
Google Play and Google Pay are not the same thing despite the names, so it can be a bit confusing!
Google Play - the main way to get Apps, Games and other content for Android devices. I strongly recommend using this over any other 3rd Party app stores for Android.
Google Pay - a payment service available (mainly) on Android devices. The main use for it is for contactless payments in shops or for "one tap" payments within compatible Apps and I think a few websites.
Google Pay Send - a sort of "send some cash to your friends" type thing that goes through Google Pay.
I'm not a Developer myself so I can't say for sure if it's possible to add Google Pay as an option for AdBlock. I think Google Pay Send is intended for personal use rather than "business" use but you never know.

The team will sign up for the 10:30 start, so we can complete the challenge and have time to enjoy the rest of the festivities and of course offer support to the other challengers! It is on the 31st August, so there is plenty of time to train - we are going to be soooo buff for summer!
So come and enjoy - just drop me a line if you want to join. I have developed a training package, so if like me you are starting from no swimming experience there is no need to worry. I am starting regular swimming groups (often followed by a cheeky pint or a bite to eat) in central and south London.
As you may know I work in water policy, helping to provide clean drinking water in the UK, that we all take for granted. In other countries people are not as lucky and around 700,000 children die every year from diarrhoea caused by unsafe water and poor sanitation - that's almost 2,000 children a day. A vast amount of people (about 1.1 billion) live more than a kilometre from their water source, which is often unsafe and they use just five litres a day. To put that in perspective in the UK we use an average of 150 litres of water a day, in Australia it's around 500 litres and in the USA, over 570 litres.
Water-aid is a charity that transforms lives by improving access to safe water, hygiene and sanitation in the world's poorest communities and that's why we are trying to raise £2000 for them. They are a charity that I became very fond of when I was studying development as part of my degree because they are one of the few charities who focused on working with communities to find long-term solutions that work for the people having to use them. They invest time to make sure the solutions will work and be maintained, rather than making the changes they feel are right, which are likely to fail months down the line.

The Best Vegan Sources of Vitamin D
Medically reviewed by Katherine Marengo LDN, R.D., Nutrition — By Daniel Yetman on January 10, 2020
Vegan sources
Amount needed
If you eat a vegan diet, getting enough vitamin D each day can be challenging. Many of the foods highest in vitamin D, such as salmon, egg yolks, and shellfish, aren't vegan-friendly.
Taking in sufficient amounts of vitamin D can be difficult, even for people who aren't vegan. One study found that 41.6 percent of Americans may be deficient in vitamin D.
In this article, we'll look at the best sources of vitamin D for vegans, the effectiveness of supplements, and how you can optimize your intake of this important vitamin.
Why do you need vitamin D?
Vitamin D's primary role is to help your body absorb calcium and phosphorous from food.
Both these minerals are essential for maintaining healthy bones. People who don't get adequate amounts of vitamin D are at a heightened risk of developing weak and brittle bones.
Your immune system also needs vitamin D to work well. Research from 2011 shows that vitamin D deficiency is linked to increased autoimmune issues and a higher risk of developing infections.
According to a 2013 review of studies, people who have low levels of vitamin D may also be at a greater risk of depression than people with healthy levels of the vitamin.
There's some evidence to suggest that vitamin D may play a role with cancer prevention, but research isn't conclusive at this time.
There's also evidence to suggest that vitamin D may reduce the risk of heart disease, but more research is needed.
Supplements 101: Vitamin D
Vegan sources of vitamin D
Vitamin D is unique compared to other vitamins. Even though you can get it from various food sources, your body can also make it. When you expose your skin to sunlight, your body has the ability to convert cholesterol into vitamin D, which also acts as a hormone.
Many of the foods highest in vitamin D come from animals. However, there are good sources of this vitamin that are vegan-friendly.
You may see vitamin D content listed in micrograms (mcg or μg) or international units (IU). A microgram of vitamin D is equivalent to 40 IU.
Here are some of the best vegan sources of vitamin D.
Fortified soy milk
One cup of soy milk fortified with vitamin D contains about 2.9 mcg (116 IU) of vitamin D.
It's important to check the label before buying a brand of soy milk to see if vitamin D is included. Brands that aren't fortified contain very little vitamin D.
Mushrooms are one of the only non-animal sources that contain a significant amount of vitamin D.
Mushrooms grown in the dark may not contain a significant amount of vitamin D. However, mushrooms exposed to ultraviolet light when growing may contain about 450 IU per 100 gram serving.
Mushrooms contain vitamin D-2, while animal products contain vitamin D-3. Research has found that vitamin D-2 might not be as bioavailable as vitamin D-3 but can still raise vitamin D levels.
Fortified cereals
Many breakfast cereals and brands of oatmeal are fortified with vitamin D. Cereals fortified with vitamin D will usually list the vitamin in the nutritional information.
The amount of vitamin D found in fortified cereals can vary between brands. Most typically contain between 0.2 to 2.5 mcg (8 to 100 IU) per serving.
Fortified orange juice
Not all orange juices are fortified with vitamin D. However, brands that are fortified may contain up to 2.5 mcg (100 IU) per serving.
Juices that are fortified with vitamin D will typically mention this on the packaging.
Fortified almond milk
Fortified almond milk contains about 2.4 mcg (96 IU) of vitamin D per serving. Many brands of almond milk are also fortified with calcium.
Fortified rice milk
Rice milk fortified with vitamin D contains about 2.4 mcg (96 IU) per serving. Some brands of rice milk may also be fortified with other nutrients such as vitamin A and vitamin B-12
Although sunshine isn't a food, it's a great source of vitamin D for vegans.
Stepping out into the sun for about 10 to 30 minutes three times a week is enough for most people. However, people with darker skin may need more sun exposure than people with light skin to reap the same benefits.
Try to limit your sun exposure, as too much time spent in the sun can damage your skin, cause sunburn, and increase your risk of skin cancer.
What about supplements?
Vitamin D supplements are another option to boost your intake of this vitamin if you eat a vegan diet. Not all vitamin D supplements are vegan-friendly, so be sure to research a brand before buying a supplement.
To enhance absorption, it's recommended that you take vitamin D supplements with a meal. Foods that are high in fats, like avocados, nuts, and seeds, are particularly helpful with increasing the absorption of vitamin D into your bloodstream.
According to one study, people who took vitamin D-3 supplements with a high-fat meal had 32 percent higher vitamin D blood levels after 12 hours compared with people who ate a fat-free meal.
Here are a few brands that offer vegan-friendly vitamin D supplements.
Doctor's Best Vegan D3
Country Life Vegan D3
MRM Vegan Vitamin D3
The amount of vitamin D you need each day depends on your age.
According to the National Institutes of Health, an average daily intake of 400 to 800 IU, or 10 to 20 micrograms, is sufficient for more than 97 percent of people.
Here's the recommended daily intake of vitamin D based on age:
Babies (0–12 months): 400 IU
Children (1–13): 600 IU
Teenagers: 600 IU
Adults 70 and under: 600 IU
Adults over 70: 800 IU
The upper safe limit of dietary vitamin D for people ages 9 and above is 4,000 IU per day. Taking too much can cause the following symptoms.
Getting too much vitamin D can also raise calcium levels in your blood. Excess calcium can cause an irregular heartbeat and disorientation.
What are the symptoms of vitamin D deficiency?
Vitamin D deficiency can cause several health problems. You're at a greater risk of developing a deficiency if you don't get regular sun exposure.
African American and Hispanic populations are at the highest risk of developing vitamin D deficiencies.
Some symptoms of low vitamin D include the following:
weak bones
slow wound healing
If you eat a vegan diet, getting enough vitamin D can be challenging, but there are ways to increase your intake that don't involve animal sources.
Cereals and milk replacements fortified with vitamin D are two of the best sources of dietary vitamin D for vegans. Taking a daily vitamin D supplement can also help you boost your levels.
Exposing your skin to sunlight can also increase your body's natural vitamin D production. For most people, 10 to 30 minutes three times a week is sufficient.

Tyranny – The Verdict
November 12, 2016 Kevin McLennan Comments 0 Comment
So here's a question for people who like that kind of thing. What exactly is an evil man? Surely good and evil are simply decided by which side of an army or faction you are born into? Maybe it depends on which views you are brought up with or what you come to believe to be true on your own terms. Or is evil a more personal thing, something that is defined by your actions no matter where you come from or what your background is? Paradox Interactive's new RPG Tyranny really poses this question to you from the get-go by allowing you to choose your backstory in the lead up to actually taking control of your character. The army of Kyros under which your loyalties lie, have taken over most of the known world aside from one small peninsula in the south. As one of Kyros' leaders in the eventual occupation of these lands, you begin the game by deciding exactly how your armies go about capturing the district. I won't spoil any of the important choices for you, as this intro literally shapes the game you play and choosing the level to which your evil or mercy extends is half the fun of the early game.
What I will say is that as with other Paradox games the writing and character development in Tyranny is of a very high standard. Rarely does it feel like you're reading a piece of filler text but instead insightful and interesting dialogue and backstory, and taking part in decisions that literally shape the game and characters you are playing in and talking to. Just be prepared to do a LOT of reading. If reading is really not your thing, then I would seriously consider your attitude towards this game as skipping text would, in my opinion ruin the enjoyment of the overall game.
In a majority of games in this genre party interaction is something that I often find tedious and an endeavor that has no meaningful outcome. Party conversations in Tyranny however hold weight as each character that you talk to will react differently to you depending on your choices in game and the ways in which you interact with them on an individual level. You can gain fear or loyalty from them, making their own actions change according to yours. This is the same for larger factions and NPC's in the game, who you can also gain and lose reputation with depending on your actions. This certainly makes conversation choices a lot more meaningful for me and means if you want to role play the evil guy you better be prepared to deal with the consequences. The only disappointment from the party members is that there is not a whole lot of depth to them after conversation. You may visit an area in the game that they have a connection with and they will hardly even talk. There's also not much in the way of 'loyalty quests' or anything to connect them personally to these places and I feel like they lack a bit of depth in that department, which is a shame. A personal quest or two that included each of the characters you can add to your party would go a long way to solving this problem.
The voice acting is also of a high standard when it shows, but not all interactions are voiced. I'm not sure if this was due to me playing the early review release of the game which im told would be missing the odd bit here and there or if they decided that it just wouldn't be practical to have every section of the game voice acted. Certainly the main story line arc was mostly voice acted and if I think about it long enough that's probably enough for me.
The writers don't shy away from being in your face about their characters feelings.
There's a lot to take in to account when getting into your first few proper combat situations in Tyranny, although if you have played Paradox's other game Pillars of Eternity, you will feel semi-familiar here. Once you build up a party and level them to suit your play style things get a little easier, but initially I found it a touch hard to manage the ability overload you are faced with. There is the option to let AI manage your party members but this is best turned off if you're thinking about tackling one of the harder difficulty levels as sometimes they can be infuriatingly slow to react, especially when switching between targets that are further apart from each other. Thankfully you can pause combat and manage each characters abilities and if things are moving to fast for you in real-time, there's an option to toggle slow combat speeds.
Once you get into the thick of the stats, abilities and equipment management, it's actually quite enjoyable if you like that kind of thing. The spell system allows you to essentially create your own spells and assign them to any character, with higher cost spells being restricted to characters with high lore values which are normally casters anyway. Spells are created with a 'Core Sigil' deciding what element or type of spell it will be, an 'Expresion Sigil' deciding how the spell will effect the target and an 'accent' which modifies anything from casting range to the strength of the spell or how long the effect of the spell will take place for. Each sigil has a lore value and this is what restricts you from just giving the strongest spells to every character. For your mage assuming you have one in your party, spell creation is something of a strong point in the game, allowing you to entirely shape the type of combat style you want later into the game once you've collected a lot of sigils.
On top of the spell system each character has their own skill tree with multiple options from which they can learn new abilities or improve combat traits like armour penetration or health. Certain pieces of equipment can also provide abilities but are mostly for stat improvement and aesthetic value. Overall the combat and ability system is fairly in depth and as a person who enjoys tweaking optimal stats and abilities I enjoyed the system that Obsidian have put in place here, certainly when compared to other games of the same genre which almost seem to shy away from making these things in any way complicated for whatever reason. In a game that isn't entirely about combat it makes sense not to completely overload the player with combat based decisions and I feel this medium depth level worked well at not spoiling my enjoyment of everything else that Tyranny has to offer.
I really enjoyed the medium level depth of the combat, skill and ability system in Tyranny.
Graphically and in terms of level deign Tyranny is a really good looking game much on the same terms as Pillars of Eternity, which makes sense when you take into account that the same team developed it and it's made with the same engine. The levels are really well designed both visually and the way in which they can be transversed and interacted with. It's almost as if concept art has been improved upon by artists and designers leading to some stunning scenes and intelligent design. Throughout the whole game I don't think there was a single area of the game where I thought the designers had slipped in quality.
Ultimately Tyranny is a game about making decisions and unlike some games who promise a lot it really makes these choices count. During my play I compared my choices and outcomes to that of a friend and I'm happy to say that there was no illusion of choice, your actions really do change things like the people you meet, the areas you visit and smaller sub areas that you may or may not have access to, how people react to you, what people call you, items you find in the game and probably much more than that.
To sum things up Tyranny is a well designed and enjoyable RPG that makes decisions count, has enjoyable combat, interesting characters and well written dialogue. It places itself in a fairly unique setting and certainly makes being evil a lot of fun. Above all of that I think the thing I like most about Tyranny is that it's not very often in a game that I get to actually make the decision I want. In most other games I may be provided with options but certain game world rules mean that none of them suit exactly what I want to do in that situation. In Tyranny however I can happily kill off an NPC, slap someone in the face, throw them off a building, show mercy, save their life, take a bribe, or basically anything I want if I deem it necessary as I am literally the law bringer and in the end this is what makes it most enjoyable for me.

October 31, 2013 - Article in the Oily Rag. The Oily Rag is the news letter of the British Saloon Car Club of Canada. The chairman of the club, John Griffith, discovered the museum earlier this year. He liked it so much that he decided to inform the club members (about 370 in Canada en USA). First he mailed me to ask which British Saloon Car I was driving. I had to disappoint him. I just would love to drive a Rover P6, but I can't afford it. However I did own an Austin Allegro 2 1500 once, a fact he mentioned in the article. Mr. Griffith seems to understand what the museum is all about: the simulation of leafing through a physical brochure.
It is 1975….. you are strolling along the High Street in your home town in Britain and see a beautiful Wolseley 22 in the showroom window of the British Leyland dealership. You step inside, and begin leafing through the brochure on the salesman's desk….. Well, back here in 2013, you can now do the same on line.
April 5, 2013 - Article in local paper Almere Vandaag (Almere Today). The image I supplied was not published and the rest of the article may as well rest in the lap of history forever. The same day the museum was mentioned in a column as a cultural event for lazy people (you can visit the museum sitting behind your screen, yes. In fact that's the very essence of the museum, I'm sure they won't let browse through a brochure in a real museum). From April 5 to 7 exactly 3 visitors from Almere showed up in the museum.
31 oktober 2013 - Een artikeltje in de Oily Rag. De Oily Rag is het clubblad van de British Saloon Car Club of Canada. De chairman van de club, John Griffith, had eerder het museum ontdekt en was er zo enthousiast over dat hij het aan de clubleden (ca 370 in Canada en de VS) wilde vertellen. Hij mailde mij om achtergrondinformatie en wilde vooral weten welke British Saloon Car ik dan wel bezat. Ik moest hem teleurstellen. Ik zou dolgraag in een Rover P6 rondrijden, maar het is me te duur. Wel had ik ooit een Austin Allegro II 1500, hetgeen hij in het artikel heeft gememoreerd. In elk geval heeft de heer Griffith goed begrepen dat het draait om het simuleren van het bladeren door een papieren folder.
5 april 2013 - Artikeltje in lokale krant Almere Vandaag. De aangeleverde foto werd niet afgedrukt en de inhoud kan beter in de schoot van de historie blijven rusten. Diezelfde dag werd het museum ook nog genoemd in een column als een uitstapje voor luie mensen (ja, je bezoekt het museum zittend achter je scherm. Maar probeer eens door een brochure te bladeren in een echt museum. Weinig kans, denk ik). Van 5 t/m 7 april bezochten welgeteld drie bezoekers uit Almere het museum.


Hitmarkers that do not register a logical amount of damage?
Since the game's launch myself and several others have been experiencing an issue where the bullets we are shooting at enemies (typically at close to medium range) do not register the expected damage. In fact, the damage is so completely off that we scratch our heads at how the enemy hit is so low. The enemy will not be in front of any kind of obstacle, so shooting through something is not in play here. It is possible that there are invisible barriers or some kind of bug that things an obstacle is in front of an enemy, therefore lowering the damage output? Also, this goes beyond limb damage, the hits are drastically off. Please share if you are experiencing this as well.

Stand Up Comedy Clinic Alumn is "great" on "Car Warriors"
by Jerry Corley – Founder of The Stand Up Comedy Clinic
That's right. The students at the clinic are getting work! Tommy Otis who plays "Itchy" on "Car Warriors," (Wednesday nights @9pm on the Speed network), is great on "Car Warriors." I've been working with Tommy in the comedy class and doing private coaching with him for about a year now and his ability on and off camera has really blossomed. He's a naturally funny guy and he's taking his comedy and his career to new levels.
Tommy's one of those people who is out there doing the work. Like many comedy students, he's a little undisciplined, but that also give him the ability to remain unfiltered and just say what's on his mind.
Car Warriors is an extreme 72-hour custom car build-off where a team of car "all-stars" competes against a team of locals from various shops around the country. In just 3 days they have to build and customize a car. Who would've thought there would be so much drama in car customization. These guys can get upset. During an episode, one guy actually starts to choke Tommy. I wasn't too surprised. Hell, I've wanted to choke Tommy!
I'm used to just seeing cars in guys garages as they slowly re-do and re-build. I've re-built two engines in my life in my friend's dad's custom transmission shop. And I say two engines, because the first time, we screwed it up and had to rebuild it. It took us two months. There was no choking, there wasn't even a gag. But I guess when you add to the mix 72 hours and competition against a rival team of customizers and you've got a show. A show that one of my students is in and that's cool!
Tommy is an award winning pinstriper, so he had the skills, but add in that he's working on his comedy skills at the Stand Up Comedy Clinic and he became someone who was a great candidate for the show. Great work Tommy!

« Charlie Sheen is Winning!


Two dancers from Nottingham have been chosen to represent England in the Dance World Cup this summer.
Shenea Fawzi, 17, and Kyra Chapman, 18, have trained in dance and acrobatics at the Expressive Arts Academy in Sneinton for many years.
Former Strictly Come Dancing judge, Arlene Phillips awarded the girls the chance to compete at the Dance World Cup after their dance teacher sent an audition video of the pair performing a joint routine to Team England.
Acro dance is a unique style of dance that combines the two elements of acrobatics and dancing.
"I entered the girls because we do acro-dance which is a specialist and there's not so many schools that do that so I felt that gave us a really strong chance.
Amal Fawzi, principal of the Expressive Arts Academy and Shenea's Mother.
Shenea and Kyra have been dancing together for three years.
The dance that the girls will be showcasing in Portugal is called 'Power', and they cannot wait to perform it on a big stage.
Kyra said: "It's amazing (to be selected for England), we were really overwhelmed. We weren't expecting it but we're just really excited to go and enjoy the experience.

Landholders can collect a proportion of the rainfall run-off from their property in one or more dams on non-permanent minor streams, hillsides and gullies without a water licence, water supply work approval, or water use approval.
In the Central and Eastern Divisions of NSW, up to 10% of average annual regional rainfall run-off can be captured.

KARACHI, May 6: A mix of rustic Pakistani folk singing and classical raags, capped by the frenetic performance of the mystical Egyptian Zar technique, marked the third night of the International Mystic Music Sufi Festival, held at the Baradari here on Saturday.
Fakir Abdul Wahid Jamali and his troupe, wearing distinctive, flaming orange costumes, was among the first performers of the evening, singing the verses of Sufi poets, including Sachal Sarmast, commonly referred to as the shair-i-haft-zuban (poet of seven languages) for his linguistic prowess.
This was followed by Allah Ditta Lonay Walla, who performed a stirring rendition of one of Baba Bulleh Shah's kafis.
Next up was acclaimed classical musician Ustad Nasiruddin Sami, who delivered three tunes dipped in a spiritual fragrance. He first performed a composition of Hazrat Amir Khusrau's in homage to his Pir-o-Murshid, Khawaja Nizamuddin Aulia, Mehboob-i-Illahi. The selection of the tune, as well as the verses that went with it (Gori soye sej par, mukh par dalay kes, reportedly uttered by Khusrau when he reached his beloved master's deathbed) was timely, as the night of the performance coincided with the 18th of Rabi-us-Sani, the date of Khawaja Nizamuddin's Urs.
Sami also returned to Amir Khusrau for the second tune, a fine rendition of raag Bahar, while he wrapped up a splendid performance with the stirring Rajasthani Sufi folk song, Kesarya Balam, Padharo Maro Des.
The Bosnian Choir Hazreti Hamza returned on the third night of the festival, organised by the Rafi Peer Theatre Workshop, and what a delightful return it was.
Channelling another kind of energy was the Mazaher Ensemble from Egypt, practitioners of a mysterious tradition known as Zar, which is prevalent in East Africa. Led by four women dressed in traditional garb an accompanied by two male musicians, they started off each tune in a slow, lumbering fashion, but as the rhythm grew faster, the performers whipped themselves up into a trance-like frenzy. And then, silence.

Scoop: Obama enters the chat

Former President Barack Obama is jumping full-on into the midterms with a fundraiser for the Senate Democrats' campaign arm, Axios has learned.
Why it matters: The event comes as Democrats' once-poor outlook of keeping control of the upper chamber has improved amid pervasive candidate quality issues among Republican Senate contenders.
Driving the news: The Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee is hosting a Sept. 8 fundraiser featuring a "conversation" headlined by Obama and Sen. Gary Peters (D-Mich.), chair of the DSCC, according to an invite obtained by Axios.
Tickets for the New York City event are $25,000-a-pop for general admission and $50,000 for VIP, the invite says.
The backdrop: The former president is also headlining an Aug. 30 fundraiser for the National Democratic Redistricting Committee, Politico reported Monday.
That event is being held at Martha's Vineyard with NDRC president and former Attorney General Eric Holder.


"The more we understand about how these cells develop, the signals and pathways they use, the more likely we'll be able to devise approaches to manipulate them," said Avery August, professor of microbiology and immunology in Cornell's College of Veterinary Medicine and the paper's senior author. Weishan Huang, assistant research professor of microbiology and immunology, is lead author.
"This is a balance because these cells are there for a purpose, and we think their purpose is to make sure the immune system doesn't destroy and cause pathology in an immune response," August said.
"We'd have to do experiments to find out whether we can tune the function of Tr1 cells," August said, "so we balance the beneficial aspects of the immune response with the damaging aspects of the immune response."
The study was funded by the National Institutes of Health, the American Association of Immunologists and the Talent Program of The Third Affiliation Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University in China.

By clicking on the ABC icon in the lower-right corner of the editable area, you can proofread anything you write on the web. If you are learning a foreign language or studying abroad, you can also check French, German, Portuguese and Spanish text as well.
These are just a few extensions to help you write research and write papers more efficiently, and you can find many more extensions in the gallery. And if you don't have Google Chrome yet, what are you waiting for? You can get the browser here.
Researching and writing great papers can take a lot of time, but they don't have to be so daunting. For this next post in the Google Chrome Extensions at School series, we'll showcase extensions that can help you research and write papers for any class.
I wish I could use Chrome for my classes. My school e-college system pops up a stupid window saying the page doesn't work on Chrome and I should use IE or FireFox. I can bypass it by reentering my username and password but every time I switch from one class to another it pops up again. Having to type my username and password in four or five time in an hour gets really old so I've kind of given up.
This looks really useful! Loving Google Chrome. Thanks!
Their is somethime when the google Chrome does not work. I think Chrome is easy and fast so its great!
Chrome is great, been using it since it came out. I would like to see a Student link under the Featured heading in the extensions gallery so that we can find more useful stuff.
Also Zotero... Great superduper awesome plugin for Firefox (organize your sources and then it automatically creates in page citations and a bibliography in your paper), but not available for Chrome. Zotero has said they cant build it for Chrome.
Id love to see something like it, even if not full featured, for Chrome. And in a perfect world it would integrate into Google Docs. What can I say, Im a dreamer.
Google Dictionary and other extensions are very helpful.
But for students who need a more comprehensive source of "dictionaries" at their fingertips (e.g. almost any derivative source: specialized terminology, translation, Wikipedia, Wiktionary, reverse word lookup, etymological sources, etc.), there's a web site called OneLook that you really should try.
It indexes something like 20 million words from 1,000 sources, and it's been around for years.
After installing the extension, just right-click some selected text, click the OneLook command, and you're off!
I know it's been a VERY important tool for my research over the years.
So I have like a million tabs open for my research project (lets say a Criminal Justice class).
Then, I need to start working on my literature paper. I am supposed to analyze gender roles in The Taming of the Shrew. That is surely going to take many tabs as well.
I really do love using it. Basically, you can store sessions (groups of tabs), and come back to them later. It is awesome.
Why is it important to teach students good basic sentence custom essay writing?

a) Embryonal Rhabdomyosarcoma
Welcome » Basic Topics » Pathology » L: Paediatric Tumours » 3) Paediatric Sarcoma » a) Embryonal Rhabdomyosarcoma
Rhabdomyosarcoma is a very rare tumour, but is important as it is the most common soft tissue sarcoma of childhood, and makes up about 5% of all paediatric malignancies. There are two types seen in childhood: embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma and alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma. Pleomorphic rhabdomyosarcoma is a disease of adults.
Embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma is the most common type of rhabdomyosarcoma in children. It usually occurs before the age of 10 years (80% of cases) and occurrence in adult patients is very rare. Boys have a slightly higher incidence (1.2:1).
Aetiology and Pathogenesis
The exact cause of rhabdomyosarcoma is not known. Embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma is postulated to arise from loss of a gene in chromosome 11p15. Loss of this gene acts in a similar way to RB1 and retinoblastoma via Knudson's two hit hypothesis. Other gene mutations may be seen but are not characteristic (e.g. TP53).
Embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma may arise in any organ or structure of the body. The most common site is the head and neck (50%); about 25% occur in the genitourinary system including the testicle; 10% occur in extremities and the remainder occur in other structures including viscera. The meninges may also be the primary site of disease. Local invasion may be extensive. Lymphatic spread is usually seen only in testicular and peripheral tumours. Haematogenous spread occurs to the lungs.
Symptoms and signs relate to the site of disease. These are usually due to mass effect on adjacent structures (e.g. proptosis, hollow viscous obstruction). Most patients will describe a rapidly growing mass in the history. Imaging demonstrates a heterogenous mass which expands the site of origin and may compress or invade other structures.
Tumour/Normal Tissue Features
Macroscopic
The macroscopic appearance depends on the histological subtype. All subtypes are usually large, tan and invade adjacent structures. The botryoid variant displays grape-like projections from a mucosal surface. The spindle cell variant is often firm and has a whorled appearance.
The cells making up an embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma recapitulate the various stages of normal rhabdomyogenesis. Various stages may

Start-up: Zencastr, US, 2015
Posted on Jun 25, 2020	by AnnMarieM
Zencastr helps podcasters avoid bad sound quality for their remote guest speakers
As the coronavirus pandemic forces many parts of the world into lockdown, home-based working and web-based communication tools have become vital to us all. Which probably explains why Zencastr's website is getting slammed with new traffic right now.
The company is the brainchild of Utah software developer, Josh Nielsen, and offers a solution that makes it easier to record high-quality audio for remote podcasters. According to Nielsen, Zencastr became possible around five years ago when web browsers started to offer new audio features that enable developers to create features, such as oscillators and synthesisers.
Around six hours of work goes into the average podcast episode, from scheduling and scripting to editing and distribution
"These allow you to mix and record audio in your web browser – which was interesting to me, because browsers are the ultimate accessible platform," he says.
The resulting solution took time to develop, with Nielsen spending 30 hours a week on Zencastr, as well as taking on contract work to support his family. "I thought it would take six weeks, but it took six months," he recalls.
For podcasters wanting to feature guest speakers contributing from a remote location, however, it was worth the wait. While many rely on video conferencing apps such as Skype, Zoom or Hangouts to record the call, these apps tend to record the podcaster in good quality, while their guests often sound as though they are speaking over video conference – or from very far away – with all the sound dropouts and compression artefacts that this experience can bring.
"With actual video conferences you tend to forgive this," says Nielsen, "but on a podcast, listeners are very sensitive to this kind of experience." While it's possible to make a quality record of each person on both ends with some apps, this approach doesn't work for one-off guests who might not be tech savvy, Nielsen adds. "It can be hard to train them how to do that on their end and then you have the hassle of getting the audio back and forth, and exporting it and sending it."
Zencastr addresses this pain point by recording each participant separately on their computer via their web browser. The podcaster sends each guest a web link and they automatically join in a live VoIP connection. Neither party has to install anything, not even a browser extension. Once the studio-quality recording is complete, each solo track is uploaded to the Zencastr cloud and synced to the host's preferred cloud drive.
Since its beta launch in 2015, the tool has become a standard for remote podcasting and, according to Nielsen, has already crossed the 40,000 hours of podcast content per month mark.
Users include independent productions such as Making Sense with Sam Harris, as well as enterprise-level clients, including Amazon and Microsoft and General Electric – which uses the podcast facility to address staff for its internal comms. In addition to providing recording facilities, Zencastr also offers an automated mixing service, delivering files in MP3 or WAV formats in minutes.
Becoming the host of a company's web files is also on the start-up's road map – and something Nielsen says is scheduled for the third quarter of this year. He adds that V2 will involve hosting and distributing content, as well as marketing it. "Around six hours of work goes into the average podcast episode, from scheduling and scripting to editing and distribution, so we're looking to become more of a one-stop shop, offering a 'click record and we'll take care of the rest' type service," Nielsen says.
While some of these solutions will inevitably form part of a premium package – a paid version aimed at professionals was first launched in 2017 and includes multiple users and up to ten hours of
post-production – Nielsen is keen to support hobbyists on its free plans, some of whom have been using Zencastr since its initial 18-month beta trial period.
During the coronavirus pandemic, the start-up has also announced it will be waiving the limits for all of those on its hobbyist tier, as US states such as California ring-fence podcasting as one of its essential businesses. For this hobbyist group, the company has dropped its limits on hours and the number of participants until the beginning of July.

The three institutions of the EU, Commission, Council and Parliament, reached an important agreement: The legal rules for the trade of goods and digital content will be modernised.
Sales of goods: The Commission already proposed a new directive for online trade in 2015. It was now decided that this area should not be handled separately. Instead, the existing rules will be adapted in order to be sufficient for both the stationary and the online trade. This will ensure that consumers as well as companies have clear rights and duties, e.g. in relation to legal guarentee.
Digital content: Up until now, there was a lack of regulations regarding contracts between consumers and companies for the supply of digital content. This includes data (e.g. music) ad services (e.g. cloud services), but also goods like CDs and DVDs. The Parliament and Council yesterday agreed to a respective proposal by the Commission, also from 2015, which for example clarifies the rights of a consumer in case of defects of software.
More information is also provided in the press release of the EU Commission.


There are various types of toothpaste available on the market.
