For those of you with a history of blood clots and certain genetic mutations, I include this personal post as a way to show that even someone with vein damage and recurring Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT) can get out there and keep going.
DVT, Part One was when I was pregnant with Alex. To make a long story short, I developed an extensive blood clot in the deep veins of my left leg and pelvic region when I was pregnant with Alex in late 2002. Turns out I have a genetic mutation (MTHFR...C667t to be specific) that makes my body susceptible to blood clots and cancer. My veins eventually recovered, but with permanent damage in my left pelvic area. That damage hasn't stopped me from doing anything though, as one can plainly see from my blog.
Part Two...But Not Really came in 2013, right before we did the Camino de Santiago. A technician in a local hospital misdiagnosed the permanent vein damage in my left pelvic area as another blood clot. That hospital put me on a regimen of warfarin, etc....and then I saw my specialist in Boston who did more testing and told me no, that was not a blood clot, that was just leftover damage from 2002/2003.
Fast forward to two weeks ago. Suddenly, in spite of my fairly active lifestyle, I felt a familiar pain in my left calf which increased as the hours and days went by. I went to the hospital (different one from 2013!), told them I was sure I had a blood clot, and was told by the excellent ultrasound technician that yes, he could see I have a new clot (and he could see the old damage in my pelvic region, which is in a different section of my veins from this new clot).
I am now on what will likely be a lifelong regimen of a new-to-me drug called Eliquis. I like this new drug -- it's just a pill, no hospital visits or shots needed. I can also drink one alcoholic beverage every 24 hours and eat whatever I like. Hooray for advances in medical research and new drugs!
I have already built my leg strength back up over the past week by hiking increasing distances up a local mountain every single day. The first day was painful and I could barely walk to the trailhead. I kept at it and increased my mileage a little each day until, this morning, I was able to do the entire mountain loop hike, ledges, scrambles, and all (6.2 miles if you include the walk to and from the trailhead from my home). By the time the girls get back from their vacation with their dad in two weeks, I should be more than ready to tackle Four Thousand Footers with them again. I have also lost four pounds in the past week, since I now feel the need to get rid of all excess body fat. This is not a vanity thing as I am 46 years old and past the point of giving a damn what I look like. It's about optimizing circulation; being as fit as possible is good for my leg.
I am not a doctor, so if you are reading this and you have a blood clot and/or are trying to get your leg back in shape, consult with your medical professionals. I will be so bold, however, as to say that you need to get back out there and do what you love to do, in the way you and your doctor see fit. Don't stay home and wallow or fret or give up. Find your motivation and, when the doctor says it's okay, fight through the discomfort and pain and, little by little, more and more each day, build yourself back up. Otherwise, what? I have too many trails I want to hike, with and without the girls. My entire future involves hiking as much as possible. In other words, there's no way a DVT will prevent me from doing exactly what I want to do.
Yet another one. I can't possibly be expected to stay away from sights like this.
So that's the scoop. Besides that, all is well in our world. The girls will have another episode of GraniteGals out in a week, and then we will resume hiking 4Ks for the Grid in mid-June. We are also thru-hiking something in August, but instead of announcing that hike beforehand, I'll let Alex and Sage talk about it when we get back. It will be an adventure...it always is. Life is good.
Hope everyone out there has a fantastic holiday weekend.
The girls have a new episode of GraniteGals ready! Here is the link.
Alex and Sage posted a new GraniteGals episode; this one features Pam Wilmot, White Mountain four-season hiker and AMC Hiking Leader -- check it out here.
Also, Alex recently posted a trip report of last week's Adams and Madison hike.


Last year, I started reading a lot of non-fiction—mostly in an effort to be a Better Me and learn a few things about life. In fact, I blogged for an entire month about some of the concepts and precepts I have been trying to institute in my own life as a result. In my blog post entitled When In Doubt, Throw It Out!, I mentioned a book, The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up.
In this particular episode, Emily is trying to deal with the sudden loss of her husband by employing the tactics she read about in this book. She's cleaning out her house by holding up items and asking herself, "Does this spark joy?".
Lorelei is quite annoyed with her as she sweeps around the house repeating this process several times (when is Lorelei not annoyed with her?) This is the KonMari Method to "tidying up"—an invention of author Marie Kondo, an expert, er…tidier? Her book, The Life-Changing Method of Tidying Up was sweeping the nation at the time.
Now, a year later, Marie Kondo has her own NetFlix show and people are going nuts. Between the time of the Gilmore Girls episode and the Marie Kondo NetFlix craze, I managed to read the book.
When I took The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up out of the library, I was a little startled at first. I don't know what I was expecting, but it wasn't this tiny pocket-sized book. I was expecting some…well, life-changing sized book to be honest. How could a self-professed life-changing method be crammed into 200 pages?
I have to admit, I was almost immediately turned off by the book and the process. In all honesty, it sounded really…hokey. Marie Kondo herself came off as if she was a few nuts shy of a squirrel picnic.
I mean, I get it. She's an organized person and all that, but she was REALLY full of herself in the first few pages. Sure, she's organized and efficient and all that, but that doesn't mean being "tidy" is the most important thing in the world. I guess it's important to you if you're actually reading the book to help yourself, but I was just reading it to see what the hype was about.
After all, I wasn't really interested in sounding like a lunatic by thanking my clothes for serving me today.
My first impression of Marie Kondo (besides a possible looney bin candidate), was that she had to be single and kidless. She mentions things like putting your things away immediately when you're done with them. Things like shoes and books and kitchen tools.
While in theory that's a great idea, in reality, most of us cannot even get into our house (while carrying six bags of groceries, listening to a child report that his brother spit in his hair, discovering that the dog has $hit on the floor again, and the cat has scarfed up a hairball) without losing our own $hit.
Immediately tidying just isn't a very realistic process for most of us.
Because they'll want to tidy up after themselves when they see what joy it's brought you. (INSERT GINORMOUS EYE ROLL HERE). My family probably wouldn't even care if we were living in a cardboard box stuffed with used Q-tips and Chinese food containers as long as they had decent WiFi signal.
No, really. Their bedrooms look like a tornado and a hurricane touched down simultaneously. And the only reason my husband's bedroom looks okay is because I sleep there too and I keep it neat.
I'm pretty much the only one who even remotely cares about being neat…and that's why everything is such a mess. These people throw everything anywhere. Really. Until I put a giant basket next to the front door, they would dump their shoes RIGHT IN FRONT OF THE DOOR.
Marie Kondo would probably have a stroke if she saw the giant basket, because the shoes are just piled in there with no rhyme or reason. And no, they didn't thank their shoes after they used them.
It certainly doesn't spark joy. At all.
And Can We Talk About the Sparking Joy?
Some things in life are necessary evils. And they do not spark joy. In fact, they spark anger and annoyance. (Like my oven that doesn't work well and my electric bill in the summer.) But yet, we need them. Because we cannot afford to throw out everything that doesn't spark joy and get a new one. We can't disregard necessities because they don't "spark joy".
This idea kind of reeks of privilege.
And what does that even mean? "Spark joy"? What would constitute "Sparking joy"? My morning coffee? An unexpected free hour to take a nap in the middle of the day? Half-price sale at Michael Kors?
Depending on my mood, sometimes these things don't even spark joy. What if I was cleaning out my house on a joyless sparking day???
As I went through the book, I discovered it wasn't all nuts. In fact, some ideas were plain brilliant. I always do some spring cleaning, but it's usually willy nilly, without a plan. Halfway through my spring cleaning, I usually give up because the family has messed up the house again.
I figured if I employed the KonMari method, I would have a better shot at actually getting it done.
I was not planning to go through every blessed thing in my house and hold it to my chest and ask if it sparked joy either. However, I WOULD go through things more thoroughly using rules and guidelines.
Is this worn out/ broken/needs to be replaced?
Have I not used/looked at/needed this in a year or more?
Am I just hanging on to this because it evokes some emotional response and it's really useless?
The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up also suggested that you tidy all at once so that things don't get messy while you move from room to room. I laughed and laughed and laughed.
While I get the reasoning behind that, it really isn't feasible to expect people with jobs and lives (living with multiple other people and animals and teens that need to be driven somewhere every five minutes) can devote that much time to this project all at once.
However, I did try to tackle each category at once.
Dude…this was a piece of cake. I took everything from my closet at once—this was incredibly overwhelming to see—and laid it on my bed. Holy crap I had so much STUFF.
Like, I said, I didn't hold it to my chest and ask if it sparked joy, but I was quickly able to determine what DIDN'T spark joy. The too small jeans that I swore would fit me again some day, the shirt with the button I was going to eventually get around to sewing back on, the shoes that always gave my feet blisters.
It was no holds barred throwing this stuff out. I felt completely liberated by the idea that I didn't have to hold on to this stuff if I didn't want to. Knowing that I didn't have to feel guilted into keep a pair of pants with the tag still on them because they cost a lot, was great. I could donate them and someone else could have them.
In no time, I had my three piles…keep, throw out, and donate. It was time to move on to step two….
I admit, this was a difficult concept to adjust to. But when she explained how to fold your clothes so you could see them all at once, I realized it was truly life-changing.
No more rifling through the drawer to find the shirt with the sequins you like…IT'S RIGHT IN FRONT OF YOU! Gone are the days of clothes falling behind the drawer because it's stuffed to the max and you just rifled through to look for that sequined shirt. And if you have gotten rid of everything you REALLY don't need YOU CAN FIT ALL YOUR CLOTHES IN THE DRAWER!
I swear! Plus, with this method, you really, truly don't have to rotate your winter and summer clothes. That has always been a dreaded chore for me.
Well, no more! I implemented this method eleven months ago when I read this book and I STILL fold my clothes that way. And no, I did not have to change over my summer clothes for my winter and vice versa. I know that if it gets to the point where I can't fit everything in the drawers or closet…I have too much and I need to get rid of something.
One weird thing though…apparently your socks have souls and do not like to be balled up in your drawers. In fact, they're crying in pain, according to Marie Kondo. I HAVE noticed that balling up the socks stretches them out quickly and I have to replace them sooner. Folding them does not stretch them out.
So do yourself a favor and please fold them neatly in half and save their little sock souls.
The next step was books. I love books. I don't often buy books, though. The majority of books on our shelves are either books someone has bought us as gifts or books I've won through Goodreads Giveaways.
And the ones that I've bought are usually purchased because I either really loved the book or I got an amazing deal on it.
I felt like I was parting with a baby every time I put a book in the box. The guidelines I used for which books I donated and which books I kept were not logical. I asked myself if I was planning to read the book again and 99% of the time, the answer was no.
As a self-professed bibliophile, I have to confess: I have only read six books multiple times in my life. Yes. You read that correctly. Six.
It's not that I don't think books are worth rereading. It's just that we have such little time here on Earth…I want to read as many books as I can. Rereading books would take time away from discovering new ones.
So How To Decide What to Keep and What to Donate?
I decided I would keep anything older than say, twenty years…books from childhood and such. (Okay, maybe THIRTY years.) Then I kept all Hubby's books because even though he was never reading them again (I'm sure there were many books on the shelf he hadn't read to begin with…), I wasn't going to incur his wrath, Marie Kondo be damned.
Then I kept all the books I won. Don't ask me my reasoning behind that. I also kept the books I've bought that I haven't read yet…even if it's been years since I bought them. (I wasn't throwing money away!) And finally, I kept all the books I have rated 5 stars.
Yes, I realize I went rogue on Marie Kondo's method, but seriously…who gets rid of books?!?!?
I did have a huge Rubbermaid container of books to bring to the library and that made me feel good. Someone else would get a chance to enjoy the books I had loved.
First of all. I don't like to save papers. It's like the opposite of books for me. I shred $hit the second I don't need it any more.
He literally has pay stubs from when he worked at Burger King in the 90s. Yes, he does. And when we redid our home office a few years ago, I discovered he had a receipt for a jacket he bought in 1992. AND HE FOUGHT ME ABOUT THROWING IT OUT.
I went through as much as I could on my own…my own receipts and paperwork. Stuff for the kids and such. Since I'm pretty on top of that stuff to begin with, it didn't take long.
There are A LOT of papers in our home office/house/kitchen/his dresser that I cannot touch because I have no idea if they're important or not. To work on this category, I TRIED to get him to help me—basically I held up papers one and a time and asked him if they were important or not.
Honestly, I had no problem with this category, other than the fact that there were so many thing in it that it took weeks to do. I have no qualms about throwing out stuff that I don't use or stuff that is broken.
Miscellaneous would include that junk drawer in your kitchen and the bag or bags in your closet. The kitchen tools and fondue set you never even took out of the box.
It includes those wine corks you're saving for an "art project" and the soap and shampoo you took from the hotel on your vacation ten years ago. The make-up that's fifteen years old, but you haven't quite finished it.
It's the planner from 2007 and the combination lock on your dresser that you forgot the combination to. It includes the shells you collected from the visit to the beach that you have no idea what to do with.
THROW IT ALL OUT! Or donate it. Or sell it. Whatever… Just get it out of your house! It's collecting dust. It doesn't spark joy!
Photos and sentimental objects. No. Just, no. I am not tidying up photos.
I confess that by the time I got to this step it was over a month after I started. Yeah, yeah, I know. You're supposed to do it all at once and all that, but…LIFE.
I am generally not an overly sentimental person. I do not feel the need to save every little crap my kids ever made, unlike my mother-in-law. I'm pretty sure she has Hubby's first poop bronzed somewhere in the house…I just haven't found it yet.
So if I've saved something, it's for a reason.
Do my sentimental items need to be organized? Of course.
But, I think tidying up your sentimental items is a personal thing and by that time I had forgotten Marie Kondo's suggestions for organizing sentimental items. In fact, I don't even know if she had suggestions because I was too beat at this point. I was tapping out for good.
There is NO WAY IN HELL I AM THROWING OUT PICTURES.
Seriously. You never, ever know when you will regret throwing out a picture. Don't do it.
So basically, that wraps up my very long review of The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up.
Did I get anything out of it? Sure.
Will you get anything out of it? Probably.

Q: Let a group G act on a set $X$, and suppose that $x,y \in X$ lie in the same orbit. Prove that $G_y=g^{-1}G_xg$ for some $g \in G$ Let a group G act on a set $X$, and suppose that $x,y \in X$ lie in the same orbit. Prove that $G_y=g^{-1}G_xg$ for some $g \in G$
Ok, lets assume $G$ acts on $X$,where $x,y \in X, g \in G$ and $y=gx$. Let $k \in G_y$. Then, $ky=y$ and
$$(g^{-1}kg)x=(g^{-1}k)(gx)=(g^{-1}k)y=g^{-1}(ky)=g^{-1}y=g^{-1}(gx)=(g^{-1}g)x=x$$
Therefore, $g^{-1}G_yg \subseteq G_x$
Does this logic seem sound? Would I be able to use a similar method to prove the other inclusion?

A: Yes. Your logic is sound. And, using @David Wheeler's suggestion, here is a slightly more polished answer. For $x,y$ in the same orbit, we have $g(x)=y$ and we want to show that $$gG_xg^{-1}=G_y$$
If $h\in G_x$, then
$$\begin{aligned} ghg^{-1}(y)&=ghg^{-1}(g(x)) \\&= gh(x) \\&=g(x) \\&=y \end{aligned}$$
Therefore, $gG_xg^{-1}\subseteq G_y$. Reversing the roles of $x$ and $y$ the same argument provides $gG_yg^{-1}\subseteq G_x$; in other words, $G_y \subseteq gG_xg^{-1}$, completing the proof.

Assistant provincial prosecutor Marvin Ngayawan said Ifugao provincial prosecutor Joseph Tumapang formally filed the murder charges against 25-year-old Juan Duntugan, the self-confessed killer of 40-year-old US Peace Corps volunteer Julia Campbell, just before noon at the sala of Judge Esther Piscoso-Flor of the Regional Trial Court-Branch No. 34 in Banaue, Ifugao. Peace Corps Volunteer Julia Campbell reported missing after hiking in Ifugao, was found dead April 18, 2007.
BAYOMBONG, Nueva Vizcaya – Murder charges were formally filed Thursday against the self-confessed killer of an American Peace Corps volunteer whose remains were found in a gully in the village of Batad in Banaue, Ifugao, last month.
Assistant provincial prosecutor Marvin Ngayawan said Ifugao provincial prosecutor Joseph Tumapang formally filed the murder charges against 25-year-old Juan Duntugan, the self-confessed killer of 40-year-old US Peace Corps volunteer Julia Campbell, just before noon at the sala of Judge Esther Piscoso-Flor of the Regional Trial Court-Branch No. 34 in Banaue, Ifugao.
The filing of the murder case before the court came 10 days after the Ifugao police filed information for murder – or homicide with robbery – before the Ifugao prosecutors' office against Duntugan, who surrendered to the police on April 27.
Earlier, some police experts and many residents here opined that Duntugan was only guilty of robbery with homicide, because the killing was not premeditated.
However, a source from the Ifugao prosecutors' office indicated another possible reason for the filing of murder raps.
Before the case was filed, DOJ officials in Ifugao admitted to receiving pressure from the US Peace Corps and the United States Embassy in Manila for them to file murder charges against Duntugan.
US Embassy officials in Manila refused to confirm or deny these allegations but said they respected the judicial process, and expressed satisfaction over the investigation that had been conducted by the local authorities.


Glancy Prongay & Murray LLP ("GPM") announces that it has filed a class action lawsuit in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California, captioned Gomes v. Eventbrite, Inc. et al., (Case No. 3:19-cv-02019), on behalf of Eventbrite, Inc. (NYSE: EB) ("Eventbrite" or the "Company") investors who: a) purchased or otherwise acquired Eventbrite securities pursuant and/or traceable to the Company's false and/or misleading registration statement and prospectus (collectively, the "Registration Statement") issued in connection with the Company's September 2018 initial public offering ("IPO" or the "Offering"); and/or b) purchased or otherwise acquired Eventbrite securities between September 20, 2018 and March 7, 2019, inclusive (the "Class Period").
On September 19, 2018, Eventbrite sold shares in its initial public offering ("IPO") at $23 per share. In the IPO registration statement, Eventbrite stated that its acquisition of Ticketfly "had a positive impact on our net revenue growth" in the third quarter of 2017. On March 7, 2019, Eventbrite reported its annual financial results, and in a related conference call, Eventbrite's Chief Executive Officer and co-founder, Julia Hartz, stated that the strategy to integrate Ticketfly "will impact revenues in the short-term."
The complaint filed in this class action alleges that throughout the Class Period, Defendants made false and/or misleading statements, as well as failed to disclose material adverse facts about the Company's business, operations, and prospects. Specifically, Defendants made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose: (1) that the Company's migration of customers from Ticketfly to Eventbrite was progressing slower than expected; (2) that, as a result, the Ticketfly integration would take longer than expected; (3) that, as a result, the Company's revenue and growth would be negatively impacted; and (4) that, as a result of the foregoing, Defendants' positive statements about the Company's business, operations, and prospects, were materially misleading and/or lacked a reasonable basis.
If you purchased Eventbrite securities during the Class Period, you may move the Court no later than 60 days from the date of this notice to ask the Court to appoint you as lead plaintiff. To be a member of the Class you need not take any action at this time; you may retain counsel of your choice or take no action and remain an absent member of the Class.

Q: Receiver of LocalBroadcast not working for System broadcast I have a service from where i can broadcast using LocalBroadcastManager.
Intent downloadIntent = new Intent();
downloadIntent.setAction(BroadcastActions.DOWNLOAD_APPOINTMENTS.toString());
LocalBroadcastManager.getInstance(getApplicationContext()).sendBroadcast(downloadIntent);

In a Test activity i m receiving this broadcasts like following.
IntentFilter filter = new IntentFilter();
filter.addAction(String.valueOf(BroadcastActions.DOWNLOAD_APPOINTMENTS));
filter.addAction(BluetoothDevice.ACTION_FOUND);
LocalBroadcastManager.getInstance(getActivity()).registerReceiver(receiver, filter);

In the same Test activity i added another action called ACTION_FOUND to get bluetooth enabled device.
Since i m using LocalBroadCast Manager i couldn't receive broadcast of system if it found any bluetooth devices. Can anybody help on this to receive both system and local broadcasts..?

A:
Can anybody help on this to receive both system and local broadcasts..?

A LocalBroadcastReceiver is only useful within your own app hence the use of the term "local".
There's nothing stopping you from using more than one BroadcastReceiver though. Simply create another one to receive the system broadcasts.


I just downloaded the trial CD/DVD Picture Show and I am having problems.
1) I can't get the slideshow I created to show all the pictures I added.
2) I can't get the burned disc to play on my computer through the DVD disc drive. I think I might be missing a step, but I'm not exactly sure what it is.
Hi KatiePMc, welcome to the forum.
Re 1), Could you provide a bit more detail? For example, are your photos playing in proper order but at some point they stop playing (before the slideshow has ended) --or -- is your slideshow playing from start to finish but certain photos are being skipped? Please describe the situation in as much detail as possible. Also, please advise the file format(s) of your photos (i.e.; jpg, bmp, gif, etc...).
Re 2), If you look at the bottom left corner of your DVDPS4 interface, there's a little box with a dropdown menu. Whatever is showing in the box indicates the selected format for your slideshow. You need to make sure your blank recordable disc matches the selected format before you burn. For example, if "Video CD (VCD)" was selected but you burned to a DVD-R disc, the disc might not play properly even though you were able to successfully burn it. Also, if you're burning to DVD, you must have DVD player software installed on your PC in order to view the disc. Lastly, did you try playing the disc on a home type DVD player and if so, did it play properly on your TV?
Sadly the trial version only allows you to use about 10 photos. It's fairly restricting at that size, you can't do much.

Baby Driver – Review
July 2, 2017 October 21, 2019 by Jaime Rebanal
✯✯✯✯½
Of the more accessible filmmakers consistently working in the comedy genre, Edgar Wright is quite possibly the most exciting. But like Wes Anderson his own films establish their own quirks in such a manner it's easy to embrace the universe in which they take place whether it be the Cornetto trilogy or Scott Pilgrim vs. the World. His latest film, Baby Driver, proves itself to be no different – riding in on Wright's own love of pop culture but he always had an innovative use of music through every one of his films and right there is where the glory lies. Perhaps the most obvious thing that can be said is that the music is indeed very good, but moving away from the comedy genre with Baby Driver has only continued to prove why Edgar Wright was ever as exciting as he is, but in here there's a greater comfort he found within himself that perhaps his own comedies haven't fully embraced. But even if Baby Driver weren't his best film, it has all the qualities to make it one of the most exciting wide releases of the decade.
Baby Driver, taking its title from the Simon & Garfunkel song of the same name, tells the story of the young getaway driver Baby. Baby's reflexes are defined by his own personal music beats, but after scoring a large number of jobs for his own boss, he finds himself wanting to catch a break. He falls in love with a waitress whom he befriends, but soon he finds himself brought into one more job that would ultimately put what he loves most at risk. Coming back to many things that made Scott Pilgrim vs. the World work as perfectly as it did there was the sort of background his own protagonists work within: they're dangerous but the charisma behind how Edgar Wright directs them only makes a far more compelling scenario to be set up. It isn't shying away from its own moral critiques, which is perhaps the best aspect of watching Edgar Wright play around with what he's got in his own hands.
The fact that Baby Driver is indeed taking its own title from a Simon & Garfunkel song of all things sets up what propels the excitement one will feel from watching: because Edgar Wright's own films have always made themselves distinctive from how they use music to liven up a sequence. Baby Driveris full of that, whether it be within a small scene detailing what made Baby the way he is or a bigger action sequence, but it was with this he's only made his own musical choices the most distinctive of them all. For we've already gotten a taste of how he used Canadian indie rock music (Broken Social Scene and Metric in particular) to liven up Scott Pilgrim vs. the World, now with a range of eras of artists going from The Beach Boys, Blur, and Sky Ferreira. Quite obviously, the music is very good, but as Edgar Wright comes to incorporate it into the scene what happens is that we see things the way Baby is seeing them happen in front of his own eyes – and thus the action only becomes all the more exciting.
As for Edgar Wright's own love of pop culture the film's storyline makes a greater case with the fact it is so evidently influenced by Walter Hill's The Driver. Even going as far as having Walter Hill himself make a cameo in the film, Wright isn't thriving upon being self-referential with where he's taking influence from a la Quentin Tarantino but when he calls back to some of the most unorthodox of them all (there's a callback to Monsters, Inc. that even leads towards a hilarious exchange between Ansel Elgort and Kevin Spacey), that's where it even finds itself at its funniest. But it was nice enough to see Edgar Wright move away from comedy in order to broaden his own horizons as a filmmaker because there was only a more refined side of himself being shown here that sets himself atop many blockbusters coming out during the year, because the humour doesn't feel forced in for its own sake but it almost feels natural to the environment in which it is set within.
Perhaps the most fascinating case being presented here is the character of Baby himself, because we have a clear case of trauma and coping. Baby's world is defined by the music he listens to, and as his backstory explains he suffers from a permanent case of tinnitus: so he drowns out the pain with music. There's a fantastic psychological case study being presented when it comes to how Edgar Wright forms this trait about Baby, because music allows oneself to drown out what's most dreadful about the environment one is walking within, and in Ansel Elgort's role as Baby it isn't only creating a quick pace for the film but it's also clever in the sense that it plays along with calming mystery that surrounds Baby. He and Deborah, played by the lovely Lily James, also make for a cute couple together, because of how the music is allowing the two of them to live within their own world: but looking how it contrasts the reality of Baby's lifestyle only exemplifies what I've always loved Edgar Wright for.
Maybe I'm talking too much because I kept playing Simon and Garfunkel's very own "Baby Driver" in order to get myself in the mood to write about this, but to get the obvious out of the way, Edgar Wright has succeeded once again. It's nice to see that he isn't making a straight comedy out of Baby Driver unlike his previous works but it was nevertheless always refreshing just to see his innovative music choices come in for another genre. It's a film whose energy allows oneself to hum along with every beat, because of the manner to which it is edited, but I didn't expect something far more intelligent in its own psychological profile regarding the reality one lives and the world one envisions. But whenever I walk outside of the house I've always deafened myself from hearing what I felt didn't matter to me with whatever music I stored on my phone, and Baby Driver spoke out to that part of me I couldn't even resist the charm that it leaves behind. But then again, that's something I can easily say about any Edgar Wright film for Baby Driver has only continued this streak of excellence.

3 Tips to Prevent Fires in Your Laundromat - Call the HVAC Contractor and Cool Down!
Having a laundromat can be an easy-to-run business that is very lucrative, but there is one major thing to be concerned about—the risk of a fire. As you probably already know, dryers and other electrical equipment can be very dangerous. However, if you follow these three tips, you can help prevent fires in your laundromat. This can both prevent the costs of property damage and help keep the patrons who use your laundromat safe.
First and foremost, you should never neglect your washing machines and dryers. By running a machine that has a faulty heating element or that is otherwise in poor operating condition, you are risking a fire. Test your machines once per week or so, and have a commercial appliance repair professional out to make repairs as needed. As an additional bonus, this can help you make your equipment last longer without the need for expensive repairs and replacements.
Even though you can't make your patrons follow your rules, letting them know about the things that you expect of them can actually help encourage them to be cautious when using your laundry equipment. For example, posting signs that ask your patrons to clean the lint filter in the dryer and that ask them to refrain from putting oil or grease-stained clothing into your laundry equipment can be helpful.
If your dryer vents get filled with lint, which is sure to happen with the heavy use that your commercial machines probably get in a laundromat setting, then your building be at a great risk of a fire. This means that you should have the vents cleaned regularly. The best way to do so is to hire a professional commercial dryer vent cleaning company. The frequency with which you should hire someone for this service will depend on how much use your machines get. Your best bet is to hire someone to come out and do the job and ask for a professional opinion. Then, you can get on a schedule to have your vents cleaned once every few months to once per year, depending on your laundromat's individual needs.
Your laundromat could be at risk of a fire if you are not careful. To help keep your patrons safe and to help prevent any major incidents, it's a good idea to follow these helpful three tips.

Dozens of genetic variants for depression discovered - all humans carry some
The genetic basis for depression is shared with other psychiatric disorders such as schizophrenia. Photo credit: AAP
International scientists have identified 44 genetic variants that can increase the risk of developing major depression - and found that all humans carry at least some of them.
The new findings could help explain why not everyone treated with antidepressants sees their condition improve, the scientists said, and could also point the way towards new medicines.
In the largest study of its kind, scientists also found that the genetic basis for depression is shared with other psychiatric disorders such as schizophrenia - and that a number of the variants are linked to the targets of antidepressant drugs.

Magic mushroom may ease severe depression
Major depression affects around 14 percent of people worldwide and is the biggest contributor to long-term disability in the general population. Yet only about half of patients respond well to existing treatments.
"The new genetic variants discovered have the potential to revitalise depression treatment by opening up avenues for the discovery of new and improved therapies," said Gerome Breen of King's College London, who worked on the research team.
The study, published on Thursday in the journal Nature Genetics, was a global effort, with data covering more than 135,000 patients with major depression and around 344,000 controls as comparisons.
"This study has shed a bright light on the genetic basis of depression, but it is only the first step," said Cathryn Lewis, another King's College London expert who worked on the team.
"We need further research to uncover more of the genetic underpinnings, and to understand how genetics and environmental stressors work together to increase risk of depression."

Home/Business/TikTok Is Full of Misleading Information and False Claims
TikTok Is Full of Misleading Information and False Claims
TikTok may be the platform of choice for catchy videos, but anyone using it to learn about COVID-19, climate change or Russia's invasion of Ukraine is likely to encounter misleading information, according to a research report published Wednesday.
NewsGuard's researchers looked for news content on TikTok, and discovered that almost one fifth of all videos suggested by the platform had misinformation.
Searches for information about "mRNA vaccine," for instance, yielded five videos (out of the first 10) that contained misinformation, including baseless claims that the COVID-19 vaccine causes "permanent damage in children's critical organs."
Researchers looking for information about abortion, the 2020 election, the Jan. 6 insurrection at the U.S. Capitol, climate change or Russia's invasion of Ukraine on TikTok found similarly misleading videos scattered among more accurate clips.

The amount of misinformation—and the ease with which it can be found is especially troubling given TikTok's popularity with young people, according to Steven Brill, founder of NewsGuard, a firm that monitors misinformation.
TikTok ranks second on the list of most visited domains in the world according to Cloudflare. Google is only behind it.
Brill was curious to know if ByteDance, the Chinese firm that owns TikTok is doing enough or allowing misinformation spread to cause confusion in the U.S., and other Western democracies.
"It's either incompetence or it's something worse," Brill told The Associated Press.
TikTok released a statement in response to NewsGuard's report noting that its community guidelines prohibit harmful misinformation and that it works to promote authoritative content about important topics like COVID-19.
"We do not allow harmful misinformation, including medical misinformation, and we will remove it from the platform," the company said.
TikTok also took other measures that, according to the company, were intended to help users find trustworthy information. To help U.S. residents find information or places to vote, TikTok created an election center.
More than 102,000,000 videos violated the platform's rules were deleted by the platform in its first quarter of 2022. Yet only a tiny percentage of those ran afoul of TikTok's rules against misinformation.
Researchers found that TikTok's own search tool seems designed to steer users to false claims in some cases. When researchers typed the words "COVID vaccine" into the search tool, for instance, the tool suggested searches on key words including "COVID vaccine exposed" and "COVID vaccine injury."
Google returned the exact same results when a similar search was made, but suggested more precise searches about vaccination clinics, different vaccines, or booster shots.
TikTok's rise in popularity has caught the attention of state officials and federal lawmakers, some of whom have expressed concerns about its data privacy and security.
The Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee will hold a hearing Wednesday on social media's impact on the nation's security. TikTok's chief operating officer, Vanessa Pappas, is set to testify alongside representatives from YouTube, Twitter and Meta, which owns Instagram and Facebook.
