As a platform that brings people together to do what matters most to them, Meetup is entrusted with a lot of data, including the content and information generated by our members.
Like most online service providers, occasionally we receive orders or requests impacting our members, such as government requests for information and intellectual property claims.
We value our members' trust and we take our legal obligations seriously. We have developed procedures to ensure that we handle these requests and orders fairly and with proper consideration for member privacy.
We have chosen to publish this Transparency Report to give our members, as well as the broader public, visibility into how Meetup responds when faced with these decisions.
With rising levels of civic participation and public concern about challenges to democratic ideals, we hope that this transparency report will serve to strengthen our members' trust, and provide everyone with useful information about this important topic.
When we receive a government request for information regarding a member, we seek to protect the privacy of our members and comply with the law.
During 2016, Meetup received nine subpoenas. Of the subpoenas received, four were sent by U.S.-based government entities and five were sent by civil litigants. These nine subpoenas involved a total of eight member accounts.
In two-thirds of these cases, we notified the member(s) potentially affected by the subpoena. No notice was sent in the remaining one-third of cases, for various reasons, such as if the subpoena did not appropriately identify a member or if a non-disclosure order was included.
Nearly half of subpoenas we rejected for various reasons, including when the subpoena was defective. We responded to the other subpoenas by providing the legally appropriate information.
A government entity based outside the U.S. sent Meetup a request potentially affecting one member account. We responded by providing non-content.
In addition to the subpoenas discussed above, we received numerous informal requests that were made not pursuant to a subpoena, a court order, a search warrant, or any other judicial process. We declined to disclose information in response to these requests.
We received no search warrants, wiretap orders, pen register/trap and trace orders, or emergency requests. We also received one preservation request that did not apply to a valid account.
Governments sometimes request information, usually related to national security, in a way that restricts a service provider such as Meetup from indicating that it has received such a request. These requests include National Security Letters and orders from the United States Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court. As of the date of this report, Meetup has not received any such national security requests or orders for user information.
When we receive an IP claim, it is our general policy to notify the member who posted the allegedly infringing material. No notice is sent to the member who posted the material at issue in the cases we reject, such as when the claim does not follow the procedures described in our Intellectual Property Dispute Policies.
During 2016, Meetup processed 73 claims of IP infringement, consisting of 35 trademark claims and 38 copyright claims.
These claims involved a total of 62 Meetup groups and 20 events.
In over one-third of cases we simply relayed the IP claim to the member who posted the material. In about one-half of cases we responded by removing or disabling access to some or all of the allegedly infringing material. For the other cases we rejected the IP claim.
We hope that this transparency report helps you understand the kinds of data requests and IP claims we receive, as well as how we respond to them. Additional detail is included the charts and glossary below. We encourage you to learn more about these topics by reviewing our Privacy Policy and Intellectual Property Dispute Policies.

Rocket explosions, time-sensitive blood attracts, and ultrasound tutorials at the hours of darkness — the science behind the scenes of the NASA's Twins Research launched at present was virtually extra thrilling than the outcomes it contained.
The research appeared on the variations between similar twin astronauts Scott and Mark Kelly, surrounding the yr that Scott spent on the Worldwide House Station. (Mark, who's now operating for Senate, stayed on Earth the entire time.) The outcomes, revealed at present within the journal Science, report that most of the in-flight modifications to Scott's physique snapped again to the way in which they had been earlier than he left the bottom. However some — like harm to his DNA, and drops in his psychological efficiency — didn't. General, the research gave NASA a place to begin for analysis into how long-term spaceflight impacts the human physique. However to get to that beginning line, the researchers who labored on the research needed to dodge plenty of obstacles which are distinctive to spaceflight.
One fear is that long-term spaceflight might hurt blood vessel well being; researchers have noticed thickening of the carotid artery in astronauts on six-month flights, which might be a sign of potential heart problems. A group led by Stuart Lee, lead scientist at biomedical contractor KBRwyle, got down to measure Scott Kelly's carotid artery from down on the bottom. These measurements are performed with ultrasounds, which Scott realized how one can use on the bottom, nevertheless it took some critical teaching to be taught to do whereas in a low-gravity setting.
Scott Kelly within the Veggie Plant Progress Facility.
A minimum of the ultrasound work was distant, however for a number of the researchers, there's no substitute for samples. Scientists wanted to get Scott's blood, pee, and poop from the ISS again to the bottom. In at the very least one case, simply getting Scott the provides to take these samples went disastrously unsuitable when a SpaceX rocket blew up on its strategy to the Worldwide House Station in 2015, taking assortment tubes and provides with it. "It was a little bit of an 'Oh crap' second," says Christopher Mason, an affiliate professor at Weill Cornell Medication, whose blood assortment tubes had been on that launch.
Getting these fluids again to Earth was logistically difficult even when rockets didn't blow up, in accordance with Lindsay Rizzardi, a senior scientist on the HudsonAlpha Institute and an writer on the research. That's as a result of they wanted freshly remoted blood samples for a number of the analyses. (Freezing the cells killed some, and it made it arduous to separate them into totally different cell varieties, she says.) That meant Scott might solely acquire samples when a spacecraft was scheduled to depart the house station.
Rizzardi calls this an enormous pilot research that reveals it's doable to do genomics in house. And whereas they'll't draw any sweeping conclusions concerning the results of a protracted keep in house on the human physique, they've ironed out a number of the logistical kinks for future analysis. Rizzardi spent days on the aircraft generally known as the "vomit comet," as an illustration, making an attempt to not puke as she and her colleagues labored out how one can put together the blood samples during times of weightlessness. That manner, sooner or later, samples might be able to keep on the house station longer as an alternative of needing to be rushed again to Earth. "We didn't even know if we'd be capable to get our samples backwards and forwards," she says. Now, they know they'll; they simply want extra keen contributors just like the Kellys. "I feel with extra astronauts we'll be capable to flesh this out very well and get some nice insights," she says.

This method hs een used for LES  nd for Direct Numericl Simultions , nd enles to void the cumultive dissiptive effects tht might result from the multiple filterings of the flow vriles fter ech time step. Unfortuntely other spurious negtive effects re likely to e produced. In this note, the influence of filtering the vriles or the fluxes is investigted for liner opertor F(u). Results re shown for stndrd explicit centered high-order schemes, nmely the th-order finite differences nd the 6th, 8th, th nd 2th-order filters, whose coefficients cn e found in the Appendix nd in Ref.  for instnce. The ccurcies in phse nd in mplitude re presented in the wve numer spce, nd they re illustrted y the solutions of test cse. 2. Effects of sptil filtering in the wve numer spce 2..

The sptil derivtive is pproximted y centered, (2N + )-point, finite differences, yielding X N ou ox ðxþ ¼ j uðx þ jdxþ ð4þ Dx j¼ N where the scheme coefficients re such s j = j, ensuring no dissiption. By pplying sptil Fourier trnsform to (4) s in  for instnce, the effective wve numer k fd of the scheme is otined k fd Dx ¼ 2 XN j sinðjkdxþ ð5þ j¼ The sptil derivtion thus leds to numericl wve numer k fd tht differs from the exct wve numer k. The phse errors E k =(kdx k fd Dx)/p otined for the th-order finite differences re represented in Fig. s function of the wve numer kdx. They re negligile for low wve numers, ut significnt for high wve numers. More quntittively, the ccurcy limit of the scheme, estimted from the ritrry criterium E k nd expressed in term of numer of points per wve length, is k k /Dx = In Fig., wves for kdx = p re shown not to e properly clculted.

The ppliction of Fourier trnsform to (7) gives the dmping function of the filter D p ðkdxþ ¼d þ 2 XN j¼ d j cosðjkdxþ ð8þ in the wve numer spce. The dmping functions otined for the 6th, 8th, th nd 2th-order filters re presented in Fig.. Grid-to-grid oscilltions re found to e removed y the filters, wheres low wve numers re wekly ffected. To determine n ccurcy limit for ech filter, the criterium r d D p is used. The vriles eing filtered fter ech itertion, the effects of filtering re cumultive, nd it is not necessry to set r d =. A vlue of r d =.2 is therefore chosen here. The limits otined for the filters re reported in Tle in terms of numer of points per wve length. They rnge from k d /Dx = 8.33 for the 6th-order filter down to k d /Dx = 4.82 for the 2th-order filter. When centered schemes re used nd tht filtering is pplied explicitly to the flow vriles, the sptil discretiztion thus genertes phse errors due to the derivtion nd dmping due to the filtering, which cn e evluted seprtely s in Tle Filtering of fluxes In the cse of flux filtering, the flow fluxes re filtered efore sptil derivtion in order to remove grid-togrid oscilltions, so tht the frequency content of the solution is controlled. The following eqution is then solved: ou ot þ o ox ½u D pðuþš ¼ ð9þ The ppliction of sptil Fourier trnsform, denoted y ht, yields o^u ot þ ikfd ½ D p ðkdxþš^u ¼ ðþ where the expressions of k fd nd D p re given y (5) nd (8). The numericl wve numer ssocited with the sptil discretiztion is now k H ¼ k fd ½ D p ðkdxþš, which suggests tht the explicit filtering of the fluxes does not introduce dditionl dissiption of the vrile, ut modifies the wve numer clculted y the finite differences. These effects of flux filtering re shown in Fig. 2 nd, where, respectively, the pproximted wve numer k w Dx nd the phse errors E k =(kd x k w Dx)/p, otined for th-order finite differences used in comintion with 6th, 8th, th nd 2th-order filters, re presented s functions of the exct wve numer kdx.

In summry, the numericl errors due to the filtering of the flow fluxes re dded to those of the sptil derivtion, which decreses the ccurcy in phse. 3. Test cse 3..

Concluding remrks The pplictions of explicit sptil filtering to the flow vriles nd to the fluxes in simultions might oth generte numericl rtifcts, which re not of the sme nture. For liner equtions, using centered schemes, the filtering of the vriles might led to dditionl dissiption of the solution, wheres filtering the fluxes might decrese the ccurcy in phse. These unwnted effects cn e minimized y using filters of high-order, nmely t lest of the order of the sptil differentition. Filtering the vriles my however pper more relevnt thn filtering the fluxes ecuse it cn enle to remove high-frequency wves tht re not properly clculted, nd consequently to improve the numericl solutions. The computtionl cost of filtering the vriles is lso smller, ecuse the vriles cn e filtered every time step, or even every nth time step, wheres flux filtering must e pplied t ech stge of the time integrtion lgorithm. Finlly, there might e prolem for numericl stility using flux filtering, ecuse this method does not directly remove grid-to-grid oscilltions, ut only prevents their genertion during the simultion. Appendix The coefficients of the 6th-order centered explicit filter re d =5/6,d = 5/64, d 2 = 3/32 nd d 3 = /64, nd d j = d j.

Though you do not need to be connected to the internet to watch your downloaded titles, you will need to be signed in to your Netflix account to access them. Click or tap the edit icon in the upper right corner of your screen. Select the the Downloads icon. What I do is I just set the iPad up on the bed at night time only time I watch tv anyways. Scroll down and select Manage Download Devices. In this simple tutorial, we will show you how you can download Netflix movies and TV episodes to watch on the go, but also how you can manage video quality and other features.
Welcome to Netflix on your Apple TV! Use this article to learn about Netflix features and how to set up and sign out of your account. Netflix is available worldwide, and most devices will work wherever Netflix is available, though some older devices will only work in the country where they were purchased.
See our Supported Region Map for details. If you are considering purchasing a new device, check with the manufacturer to see if it supports Netflix in your region. Older devices may ask you to go to netflix. These devices only support Netflix in the US and Canada.
On most devices, Netflix lets you browse through rows of TV shows and movies, including a row dedicated to your My List selections. To fast forward or rewind on your Apple TV 4, ensure that your title is paused or the touch pad is selected. Most devices are capable of streaming Netflix in high definition on fast Internet connections and will play Netflix in their maximum supported resolution see our Internet Connection Speed recommendations for more information.
Learn how to enable subtitles, closed captions, and alternate audio including 5. To check if your device supports 5. If not, your device does not support this feature. Many devices will let you customize the appearance of subtitles and captions. Some devices will display subtitles and captions in their default appearance or are not configured to display subtitles.
If you are experiencing any of these issues, here are a few tips for you to try in order to address these issues. In order to address the Netflix issue, we suggest that you try to delete the app first.
A list of all the apps that you have installed on your Apple TV Gen 4 along with the storage they use will be visible here. Choose the trash icon for the Netflix app and proceed to delete the App. The App and all of its relevant data will be removed from your unit.
Once you have deleted the App and its associated data, please re-install the Netflix app and give it a try.
It is also a good idea to do a speed test for your Apple TV to ensure that you are getting the right band width for watching high-quality streaming content. Perform a speed test and check if it increases the bandwidth for your unit. To give you an idea, I downloaded No Country for Old Men, a two hours and two minutes movie in both standard and higher resolution. Standard came at To change the video resolution, you will have to navigate to the App Settings section, and select Video Quality.
You can either use the search feature, or use the newly created Available for Download category. Download will start immediately. Additionally, another indicator will remain on screen until the download is completed. Unfortunately, there is no way to download an entire season of a TV show in one fell swoop.
Instead, you will have to manually initiate the download for each episode separately.
Using Netflix on your Apple TV; To connect your Apple TV to your Netflix account, make sure you are on the Home screen and follow the steps below. Install the Netflix app. From the home screen, select the App Store. In the App Store, search for Netflix to find our app, then select Get to start installation. If you have Apple TV 2 or 3, you can directly stream Netflix to Apple TV. There is a Netfilx application provided by the new Apple TV. Just download the Nextflix application, access your Netflix account, and then browse and play your favorite movies or TV shows. That would seem to be the case, at least, now that the two have made it easier for viewers to watch Netflix titles directly from Apple's TV app. Or rather, Netflix .

Nostalgia seems to be the name of the game these days. As networks flirt with the idea of rebooting beloved television shows birthed in the 90s, the return on investment appears to be two-fold: being able to tap into the fanbase that helped catapult the show to success, while exposing the series to a new audience.
According to Deadline, ABC is not only rebooting NYPD Blue but also considering bringing back New York Undercover. Created by Dick Wolf, the cop drama starring Malik Yoba and Michael DeLorenzo was the first series that featured two actors of colors as the lead.
Yoba and DeLorenzo played undercover detectives J.C Williams and Eddie Torres with New York's fourth precinct. Later on in the series, Lauren Valez joined the cast as a detective and Torres' love interest. Originally housed on Fox, the series lasted from 1994-1998, with the unsuspecting death of Torres who perished in a car bomb.
Wolf's agent spoke to Deadline and hinted about the reprisal. "Wolf is reviving one of his shows from years ago – it's a franchise you can redo" that "doesn't necessarily have to have the same cast." Reportedly there are multiple networks interested.
If the show does make a return, will you tune in?

LONDON - Britain will increase its defense budget by 16.5 billion pounds (21.8 billion US dollars) in the next four years, the biggest military investment since the Cold War, Prime Minister Boris Johnson said on Wednesday.
"I have taken this decision in the teeth of the pandemic because the defence of the realm must come first," Johnson said.
"The international situation is more perilous and more intensely competitive than at any time since the Cold War and Britain must be true to our history and stand alongside our allies," he said. "This is our chance to end the era of retreat, transform our armed forces, bolster our global influence."
The program, which will fund space and cyber defence projects such as an artificial intelligence agency, is expected to creat 40,000 new jobs. The money will be allocated across four years and comes on top of the current budget, according to local media.


The Indus Valley civilization developed out of earlier farming and pastoral communities that inhabited the plains and western mountainous regions of Baluchistan and Afghanistan.
These communities are referred to as pre- or Early Indus cultures and each had its own distinctive artistic style. These regional styles are most clearly observed in various painted designs on pottery, different types of clay figurines, toys, seals and ornaments.
Although the styles of expression are different, trade and exchange networks connected the various regions and allowed for the distribution of raw materials, finished goods, technological knowledge and food items.
These items included precious stones, copper, sea shells, chert for stone tools and probably many other commodities such as grain, wool and livestock.
The gradual dispersal of specific artistic styles and motifs along with specific types of ornaments indicates that there was a gradual integration of these communities though marriage alliances, ritual interaction and eventually political treaties.
Located at the base of an important pass, the site of Mehrgarh in Baluchistan, Pakistan ( Indus Civilization Map 1) provides evidence for the earliest agricultural and pastoral communities in South Asia. The first inhabitants of Mehrgarh, dating to around 6500 B.C.E., were farmers who cultivated wheat and barley as their main grain crops and had herds of cattle, sheep and goats.
Although in the earliest period they had not yet begun to make pottery, they lived in mud brick houses, wove baskets and adorned themselves with elaborate bead ornaments made of shell and colored stones. Some of these beads appear to have been traded from distant areas or were collected during pastoral migrations.
Around 5500 B.C.E. the earliest forms of pottery have been discovered along with new types of ornaments and more developed architecture.
The earliest forms of pottery have shapes that are similar to baskets and many of the designs on the vessels may replicate woven motifs on the earlier baskets. These decorative motifs were not simply for ornamentation, but undoubtedly had some ritual significance and were symbols that served to distinguish different family groups or communities.

Objective. To describe a psychiatric profile and characteristics of physicians who killed themselves in Quebec between 1992 and 2009. Method. The cases of 36 physicians (7 females and 29 males) and 36 nonphysicians who committed suicide were matched for age and gender and examined in a nested case control design. All subjects were judged as definite suicide by the Quebec Coroner Head Office. Consensus regarding DSM-IV diagnoses was established by two forensic psychiatrists. Results. Rates of all Axis I diagnoses were 83% for physicians and 91% for nonphysicians at the time of suicide. Major depressive disorders were the most frequently observed pathology in both groups (61% and 56%, resp.). Conclusions. Physicians and nonphysicians who committed suicide in Quebec suffered from the same type of psychiatric disorder at the time of killing themselves. The findings advocate strongly for more efficient suicide prevention measures including early detection and treatment of mood disorders for the physicians.
Suicide, a complex public health problem, is the ninth leading cause of death in Canada [1]. WHO office on preventive practices in suicide and attempted suicide in its 1986 report, quoted by Nordentoft [2], defined suicide as "Suicide is an act with a fatal outcome which the deceased knowing or expecting a fatal outcome had initiated and carried out with the propose of provoking the change that he desired." Suicidal acts can be considered as severe and preventable complications to a range of diseases and social conditions [2]. It is reported that 85%–90% of people who kill themselves have been suffering from some type of psychiatric disorders [3].
Previous research on physician suicide has been marked by inconsistent findings and has generated debate in several countries [4–16]. Although several studies [5, 7, 9, 11, 13] found a moderately higher risk of suicide among male physicians and a significantly higher risk of suicide among female physicians than in the general population, others have reported different results. Arnetz et al. [16] determined that only Swedish female physicians were more prone to suicide than the general population. In a Finnish study, Lindeman et al. [14] reported standardized suicide mortality ratios of 0.9 for male physicians and 2.4 for female physicians. Hawton et al. [11] found a significantly lower standardized suicide mortality ratio of 0.67 for male physicians and a ratio of 2.02 for female physicians in the UK. More recent research [10] suggests that the disparity between physician and nonphysician suicide rates may be smaller. It has become evident that age and gender are major confounding factors in this area, which could partly explain the varied conclusions in the literature. For example, a recent study [4] reported that suicide rates were elevated for white female physicians and older white male physicians. These authors found a strong trend for increasing suicide ratio for male physicians with increasing age.
Some studies have attempted to determine why the medical profession is at high risk for suicide and why some physicians kill themselves and others do not. Physician suicide has been linked to financial difficulty [17], relationship [17, 18] and occupational [19] problems, marital status [12, 17], drug abuse and alcoholism [20–22], and preexisting psychiatric illness [18, 19, 21, 23].
Although suicide is a multidimensional concomitant of psychiatric illness, the association between physician suicide and psychopathology has not been investigated extensively. Two psychological studies [18, 20] that addressed this issue found a relation between depression and suicide among physicians. However, neither study employed a control group of nonphysicians, limiting the generalizability of their findings. A difficulty inherent to an examination of suicide is that the subject cannot be evaluated and risk factors cannot be established. Although it may be challenging to identify appropriate control subjects in this regard, comparing physician and nonphysician suicide may reveal differences in existing psychopathology. Hawton et al. [24] emphasized the value of the psychological autopsy method in furthering an understanding of factors contributing to suicide and noted that use of a control group would aid in identifying specific risk factors for suicide.
Nearly ten Canadians kill themselves every day. Canada's suicide rate (14 per 100,000 population) is thirteenth in the 22 western industrialized countries. With a rate of 21 per 100,000 population, Quebec has the highest age-standardized provincial suicide rate in Canada [25].
Several studies have noted a strong association between mental disorders and suicide. A systematic review [26] found that the median percentage of suicide victims with a mental disorder was 91 percent. Fifty-nine percent of those victims had an affective disorder. A landmark study [27, 28] on the relation between suicide and mental disorders in young men in Quebec reported that subjects who committed suicide suffered more clinical DSM-III-R disorders than living controls (88% versus 37%, resp.). These disorders included major depression, alcohol and drug dependence, and borderline personality disorder.
Specific epidemiological studies are needed to obtain adequate evidence for the presence of psychopathology among physicians who committed suicide in the province of Quebec. In any given occupation, the risk of suicide being a low-frequency event associated with age and gender changes its pattern over time [29]. We therefore believe a case control study using the psychological autopsy method and including both physicians and general population subjects who committed suicide controlling for these three confounding factors, could be meaningful.
The main objective of this study was to answer the following two questions: (1) are there any differences in psychopathology, measured by the presence of concurrent psychiatric disorders, between physicians' suicides and suicides by nonphysicians? and (2) are there any differences in treatment seeking rates for concomitant psychiatric illness between these two groups? We also attempted to explore possible differences in specific associated characteristics, such as methods used to commit suicide and circumstances pertaining to the situation, as secondary variables.
As suggested by Maris [30], we defined suicide when: "first, there was a death; second, the death was achieved by the individual who died; third, the death was intentional; and fourth, there was an active agent". Quebec law requires that all possible suicide cases in the province be reviewed by the Coroner's Office. Access to the relevant material was granted authorization by the Quebec Coroner Head Office. The unique role of the coroner in Quebec allows public access to the coroner's investigative report and dispensation from the application of the general rules of confidentiality pertaining to personal data in order to facilitate study, teaching, or scientific purposes. The study was conducted in accordance with the guidelines of the Declaration of Helsinki.
A nested case control design was used to investigate the cohort of all suicide cases judged as definite suicide by the Quebec Chief Coroner Office. Between 1992 and 2009, there were on average 1300 suicides per year in Quebec. In each case, the coroners' files typically contained information on the individual's characteristics, the circumstances of death, the spatial location of the suicide, and the type of method used in the suicide; the coroner's report for the particular death, including opinion and recommendations; the police investigative report; the autopsy report; biochemical laboratory findings. Medical and psychiatric records were also part of the files when available.
We identified 36 cases of physician suicide and selected 36 controls (cases of nonphysician suicide) from the cohort, matching for age (±1 year), gender, and year of death (±4 years). This resulted in a sample size of 72 and a ratio of 1 : 1 physicians to nonphysicians.
All legal records from coroners' definite suicide files were reviewed and compiled by the same two investigators (PG and DB), coroners with a medical specialty in psychiatry. These investigators established diagnoses by consensus, using available data, based on DSM-IV classification [31]. Review and analysis of the data were performed in an anonymous manner.
Statistical analysis was conducted using SPSS for Windows (version 15.0) [32]. Comparisons of the physician group and the nonphysician group were made using odds ratios (OR) to estimate differences on psychiatric diagnosis and psychiatric service contact, with 95% confidence intervals (95% CI). Due to a relatively small number of suicide physicians and missing data, we did not make any statistical analysis for associated variables. These results were reported only descriptively as indication of tendency.
No information pertaining to the two-principal study variables was missing. However, data were missing for 10 of the 16 selected variables, with an average of 15% (6.7%–16.7%). The rates of missing data were nondifferential among the physicians and nonphysicians.
3.1. Baseline Characteristics of Physicians
Table 1 shows characteristics of the 7 female and 29 male physicians in our sample. These physicians represent on average 2.6% of all definite suicides committed in Quebec during the study period. Median age at death was 50 years. Female physicians were significantly younger than male physicians at the time of suicide ( , , ). The physicians had practiced medicine for an average of 23 years. Almost two thirds of the physicians were practicing family medicine, and the others were practicing various specialties when they committed suicide. Most of the physicians (77.8%) were living in urban areas.

3.2. Comparison between Physician and Nonphysician Suicide
Table 2 shows the similarities between the physicians and nonphysicians in the pattern of concomitant psychiatric diagnoses based on DSM-IV classification. Psychiatric service contact is defined as any contact with a psychiatrist prior to the completed suicide. In contrast to any lifetime contact with a psychiatrist, this is meant to say that the subject specifically consulted (either receiving a medication or not) a psychiatrist in relation to his/her current episode of illness.
Psychiatric diagnoses Physicians Controls OR 95% CI

Concomitant psychiatric diagnoses.
Most of the physicians (83.3%) were suffering from an identifiable psychiatric disorder at the time of their suicide. Major depressive disorders (61.1%) were the most common diagnoses followed by bipolar disorders (8.3%) and schizophrenia (2.8%). Two thirds (66.7%) of the physicians sought psychiatric help before their suicide attempt. No significant difference in psychopathology and help-seeking was found between the two groups.
3.3. Demographic Characteristic
Most of the physicians (97.2% versus 100%) were Caucasian. One male physician was African-American. Six of the physicians (16.7%) were married, 10 (27.8%) were living with a common-law partner, seven (19.4%) were divorced, and seven (23.3%) were single. A higher tendency of physicians to live with a partner (51.6% versus 31.4%) was observed.
3.4. Circumstances of Suicide
Fewer physicians than nonphysicians had issued a suicide warning (19.4% versus 44.4%). Almost one third of the physicians (27.8% versus 38.9%) made at least one prior suicide attempt. Thirty three percent of physicians (versus 38.9% for nonphysicians) left behind an explicative note. Physicians killed themselves mainly in their own home (77.8% versus 91.7%).
Hanging was the most common method of suicide in both groups. Three physicians (8.3%) killed themselves by insulin injection. There was no difference for specific method of suicide. However, the absolute percentage difference between use of firearm and suicide was less marked for the physicians than the nonphysicians (5.6% versus 13.9%).
3.5. Pattern of Recent Problems
Physicians who committed suicide had less identified difficulty in their relationships with others and with their environment than had nonphysicians (38.9% versus 75.5%). They had less frequent financial (16.7% versus 31.6%) and almost same rate of legal problems (16.7% versus 13.9%) as had nonphysicians. Of these six physicians, two were under investigation for malpractice. Physicians had a lesser tendency for physical health problems (27.8% versus 36.1%) and had alcohol and drug problems (19.4% versus 33.3%) than the nonphysicians. Table 3 illustrates relevant demographic, psychosocial and clinical findings, as described above, in the two comparison groups.

Selected associated characteristics.
This is the first Canadian study to examine psychopathology and associated characteristics of suicide among Quebec physicians. Our results are highly applicable to other physician populations living outside Quebec, especially in the western societies having same religious, cultural characteristics, and same health care system. It should be noted that there is no private psychiatric care in Quebec.
The physicians in this sample were similar in many ways to nonphysicians who killed themselves in Quebec. This is in accordance with studies from other countries [18, 20]. Our research confirms the important association between psychopathology and suicide. Our study is unique in that the data demonstrate that physicians who committed suicide were suffering from psychiatric disorders as frequently as nonphysicians who killed themselves. Both groups were mainly experiencing major mood disorders (physicians 69.4%; nonphysicians 61.2%); more specifically, major depressive disorders (61.1% and 55.6%, resp.).
Major depressive disorder is a highly prevalent, severe, and disabling disorder. A substantial gap in the treatment of this disorder is a serious concern [33]. Depression is likely an important factor contributing to physician suicide and must be considered to enable the development of strategies to reduce suicide rates among physicians [23, 34, 35]. The mental health of physicians continues to be a topic of considerable concern [36–38]. As stated by Myers and Gabbard [3], "Suicide prevention is central and pivotal in decreasing the numbers of doctors who kill themselves each year." A study conducted in Ontario [39] reported that depression was three to four times more prevalent among family medicine residents than in the general population. Despite this fact, nearly one third of physicians in our study did not have any prior contact with psychiatric services. This finding may be explained by the likelihood that the stigma attached to mental illness is greater within the field of medicine than in the general population [36]. Moreover, physicians who commit suicide may endorse the myth that psychiatric treatment has nothing to offer them [40]. Physicians do not adequately diagnose depression in themselves and their colleagues, and they do not seek treatment as they do for other health conditions. Physicians may try to hide their condition to protect their careers [41].
As suggested by the consensus statement of the American Medical Association [23], professional attitudes and institutional policies need to be changed to encourage physicians with mental health problems to seek help. They should be informed of their rights, privileges, and obligations regarding disclosure of a psychiatric diagnosis and treatment [41]. We should continue to increase physicians' awareness of warning signs of suicidal ideation, such as observable signs of serious depression (which may be found in references [20, 33]). As Preven [42] noted long ago, "If the physician can not heal himself, perhaps he can learn to recognize the need for assistance." (page 61).
We found that fewer physicians than nonphysicians issued a warning for their acts. Physicians also had less previous suicide attempts than nonphysicians, although the difference did not reach statistical significance. This finding raises the question of impulsivity [43] and "not a cry for help" [34] in suicide prevention [43]. It has been suggested [44] that impulsivity may play a far greater role in suicide than previously thought. According to Bridge [44], 75 percent of suicidal subjects took less than one hour to make the decision to end their own life.
Similar to findings of other studies [20, 45], more than one third of physicians committed suicide by self-poisoning. The availability of drugs and knowledge of their effect is a professional risk factor unique to this population [5, 20, 46]. In our study, 19 percent of physicians had drug and alcohol problems, a rate similar to that of all physicians in North America [22].
The Quebec female physicians killed themselves in much younger age than their male colleagues (41 versus 51 years).
This study has some methodological limitations. Although the psychological autopsy method is known to be useful [24] in determining factors potentially contributing to suicide, the validity of this method is controversial. Furthermore, information contained in official death entries was limited. For instance, data were minimal regarding severity of physical health conditions, relationship difficulty, financial problems, and drug abuse. The most serious methodological problem was the amount of missing information on several selected variables. The analyses were based on definite cases and not on probable or unknown cases. There is, therefore, the possibility of underestimation of the magnitude of a relationship, as well as a possible risk of Type II error. However, it is unlikely that this problem would change the overall direction of conclusions. Because we examined the entire Quebec suicide population occurring over a 17-year period, taking care that clinical reviewers collected and analyzed data in an anonymous manner, the possibility of selection bias is slim.
In spite of a relatively small number of suicide physicians, the sample size is the largest possible since it is based on the entire Quebec physician suicide population and a gender age and year of death matched control group from a fairly homogenous society. An 1 : 1 case-control design was therefore opted to prevent Type I error. Our results also follow trends indicated by previous research. Therefore, we feel confident that our results are reliable. While acknowledging the methodological limitations of our study, our findings indicate that physicians and nonphysicians who commit suicide in Quebec suffer from the same type of psychiatric disorder at the time that they kill themselves. This main finding and our observations that female doctors killed themselves in younger age, taken together with the fact that number of women entering medicine is increasing, advocate strongly for more efficient suicide prevention measures for the physicians.
The authors report no conflict of interests.

Z100 News
Miley Cyrus Performs Stripped Back Version of 'Malibu' Live in Studio
posted by Emily Lee - May 16, 2017
Miley Cyrus has made a triumphant return to her country roots with the lead single off her upcoming sixth studio album. The 24-year-old singer joined Elvis Duran and the Morning Show on Tuesday to talk about the inspiration behind "Malibu," as well as perform a stripped back version live in studio. While fans have gotten used to Miley's over-the-top outfits and grand theatrics over the past three years, a completely different version of the talented songstress showed up to the Z100 studios. There were no giant flying hot dogs or crazy pyrotechnics, just Miley, two acoustic guitars, and her undeniably powerful vocals. The result was a raw performance you won't want to miss.
Miley discussed what Malibu, California, has meant for her personal growth. The singer-songwriter grew up on a farm in Tennessee and admits to feeling out of place in a city like Los Angeles. In Malibu, though, Miley has been able to cultivate a sanctuary for herself. It hasn't only given herself peace of mind, telling Elvis Duran that her famous father Billy Ray Cyrus loves coming out to her farm in the idyllic Malibu.
Her new sound certainly reflects her new lifestyle. Elvis revealed he overheard guests at the Robin Hood Gala, where Miley performed, say that they've "never heard Miley like this. This is incredible." This wasn't the firs time that Elvis heard people talking about Miley's new music with such enthusiasm either. The radio host told Miley that her label told him that he should expect to be blown away by what's coming. Miley didn't disappoint. "It's raw," Elvis said of 'Malibu'. "Your music is directly from the heart."
Miley revealed that, despite her long career, she's starting to get nervous about performing, especially in front of smaller crowds. "I'm actually always kind of freaking out," the singer said in a vulnerable moment. "I have to always remember that my feet are on the ground. It's a new thing. I think it's because...I haven't been performing for the last year. Even my last tour, it wasn't that kind of show. It was more about having fun and interacting with the crowd. Growing up in this industry, people always assume that I really like attention. When you're younger, you're much more fearless. As time goes on, I get more and more weird about when things are all about me."
It's no secret that Miley's fiancé, the extremely handsome Australian actor Liam Hemsworth, helped inspire the lyrics behind 'Malibu'. She's not downplaying the important role Hemsworth plays in her life, however, she wants her fans to know that there's so much more to the song than just the surface level interpretation. "It can be so easily generalized into a love song," Miley said of her new single. "I had to really heal myself individually. This song about finding a new love with an old love or finding a new freedom is also about individuality and realizing that certain doors can lead you places you never imagined you would be. If that can be through a person, that's really awesome."
Miley wants to show that she's a powerful person, though, who can make important decisions that allow her to grow and change in her own right. She's in a great space right now, and wants to see credit where credit is due for her personal evolution. "Sometimes when I read write ups about this song, it's like 'you can tell there's a leading man in there that really brought her feet down to the ground' and that [downplays] changes that I really made." She explained. "As a woman, I want to take that power back and say 'I did that.' I made a decision to say 'hey, this is what I want' and anything I want I'm going to put one hundred percent of my heart and brain into. What I want to be is healthy, happy, in love, and free."

We love seeing Miley in such a happy, healthy, and free mindset. We'll be watching her amazing, stripped back performance of "Malibu" all day. After her chat with Elvis, we're dying to see what Miley has coming up next!

Spending some extra time planning your bathroom layout can pay off in the end. Maximizing space, and proper placement of fixtures can make a bathroom more than just a place to bathe. Much like a kitchen, several aspects need to be taken into consideration: space layout, plumbing, countertops, safety, seating and storage. These guidelines have been provided by the National Kitchen and Bath Association. These guidelines were developed to help designers with good planning practices that consider the typical needs of users. A committee of experts in kitchen design reviewed lifestyle and design trends and model building code requirements to assure the guidelines promote the health, safety and welfare of consumers.

Q: Which classifier to use? I have a scenario in which I have many (100k+) files containing lines of text. I would like to know if the text contains "Storage" information and the type of it (If available). However, the text in these files are unstructured. "Storage" information has no fixed format. They can range from:

*

*"Store at X to Y degree Celsius."

*"Keep at room temperature"

*"Refrigerate at X temperature."

*"Freeze at X temperature"

and combinations of the above.
There might also be spelling error in the data. Eg, Store might become "Stor",Stoer","Sto" or even be absent.
Is there way to use machine learning classifiers to find files containing "Storage" information and split them into the categories:

*

*Room Temperature

*Refrigerate

*Freeze

I have seen a few classifier algorithms but have no idea how to get started with them. I am new to machine learning.

A: I think you could run through a sample of the reports coming in, see what kind of words are used and the most common spelling errors, and use that as a base. You most likely can't find all possible errors but the most widely misspelled words could be a good place to start.
I have no clue on even the start of machine learning, however coming at this from another perspective might be able to help. If you can build a dictionary of the most common misspellings, the machine should be able to learn from there.

De Javakade in Amsterdam-Oost kreeg zijn naam in 1914 en werd vernoemd naar het eiland Java, een der grote Soenda-eilanden. De Javakade vormt de zuidelijke begrenzing van het begin 20e eeuw aangelegde schiereiland in het Oostelijk Havengebied. De noordelijke begrenzing wordt gevormd door de Sumatrakade. Tot in de jaren vijftig vertrokken hier vele zeeschepen, vooral ook naar de Indische archipel. Toen in de jaren negentig de haventerreinen werden bestemd voor woningbouw kreeg het hele schiereiland de naam Java-eiland. De nieuwe binnentuinen, straten en grachten zijn genoemd naar Javaanse plaatsen. Het Java-eiland grenst bij het Azartplein aan het KNSM-eiland. Hier is sinds 2004 het eindpunt van tramlijn 10. Sinds 2001 verbindt de Jan Schaeferbrug de Javakade met de Oostelijke Handelskade.

In 1998 werd door Ton Slits het kunstwerk Hemels juweel opgeleverd op Javakade 700-728.

Op de westkop werd van 2016 tot en met 2018 gebouwd aan een hotel, dat bij oplevering de Amsterdamse Architectuur Prijs won.

Our trailer is up!
As you know from tooling around this site, in the past few years I have become more and more interested about the search for unknown biodiversity -- the people who are passionate about this quest, and the amazing and bizarre creatures they find. I have been slowly working on a film about this search, and have just debuted a trailer on our COMING SOON page. If you like what you see, take a look at the project's FB page -- https://www.facebook.com/TheOther97Percent/
On persistence.
I just saw the On Kawara exhibit that's running at the Guggenheim here in New York. For people not familiar with Kawara, he's a Japanese artist best known for his long-running projects of repeated work – like painting the current date on a small canvas each day (the Today series), or sending a daily postcard that records the exact time he got out of bed (the I Got Up series). You could think of the work as a kind of meditative practice, both for the person who creates it as well as the person who views it.
It made me think of taxonomy.
Taxonomic work is also quite repetitive. Each day, the taxonomist catalogues specimens, carefully examining and describing them in a consistent way. Does this spider have a round abdomen or an oblong one? Is it partially covered in a shell, or completely soft? Does it have a color pattern? A texture? Any spines or hairs? It's true that every spider is different, but the questions are the same – just as every date is different, but the act of painting them is (essentially) the same.
At the exhibit, my friend and I talked about what would make someone to commit to this sort of practice. I know that taxonomists are big picture people – they want to know everything that lives on this earth because that's the way to understand the nature of life itself. The devil is in the details. I think On Kawara sees this too.
About a month ago, the NYTimes ran an opinion piece on the loss of specimen collections (see http://www.nytimes.com/2015/02/27/opinion/libraries-of-life.html). It describes how specimen collections, like the spider collection at the American Museum of Natural History, are the foundation of the identification and study of species. So without specimens to examine, describe, and classify, we will never be able to finish this project of knowing all Earth's biodiversity.
The article also talks about the loss of curators, scientists like Norm who study and classify these specimens so we can understand their evolution. At the Field Museum in Chicago, one of the better-funded natural history museums in our developed nation, the curatorial staff has dropped by almost half in 15 years. Recently, here in New York, the Brooklyn Botanic Garden suspended its scientific research program – and shuttered its celebrated herbarium. And more than 6 months after Norm's retirement, the AMNH has yet to hire a new spider curator. In all of these cases, there wasn't enough funding to keep people on staff.
It seems clear that funding for curatorial positions is getting harder to come by. What will this mean for tomorrow's would-be curators who would continue the work of finding Earth's hidden biodiversity?
It's a disturbing trend. But for me, there's an added loss. Specimen collections are extraordinarily beautiful. Working on this film, I've had the great joy of touring all kinds of collections, from komodo dragons stored in giant tanks of alcohol to tiny iridescent taxidermied hummingbirds. To see the unbelievable diversity of nature's forms gathered, preserved, classified, and organized, is to begin to understand the unending process of evolution – the basis of life itself. These collections are evidence of our attempts to grasp the infinite.
What will we lose if we stop reaching?
Three years ago, I met a guy named Norm and decided I had to make a film about him.
Norm is one of those people you either love or hate right away. At first glance, he looks like a caricature of a scientist: long white beard, thick bifocals, and pens jutting out of his chest pocket. If you ask him about his work, which is studying spiders, he'll be happy to tell you all about it. But when he talks, he talks fast, and you get the distinct impression that you better not ask him to repeat himself. He agreed to be filmed for this project –but if I stopped to adjust camera or tweak a light, I'd end up turning around just in time to see him disappear round a corner.
You see, Norm is always in a hurry.
But with good reason – there's still about 40,000 spiders left to find.
All around the world, scientists like Norm (as well as students, teachers, nature enthusiasts, amateur photographers) are trying to find and identify Earth's unknown biodiversity. For more than 200 years, scientists have been drawn to the big, obvious creatures – mammals, birds, reptiles, and green plants – and we now know most of those creatures. The problem, though, is that all those creatures add up to just 3% of the life on the planet. And while they get all the attention, the other 97% is rapidly disappearing.
So I'm making a film about Norm and other people on the quest to find the remaining 97% of life on earth. Along the way, I'll be putting clips, photos, and stories up here so you can see how it's going and be a part of the process. My hope is that this film will get the word out on the importance of this work – of finding and knowing the rest of Earth's biodiversity – so that we can convince funders and scientific institutions to help this field flourish once again.
Thanks for being a part of this effort.
And more soon!
Sandya.
