The Last Dragon (sometimes listed as Berry Gordy's The Last Dragon) is a 1985 martial arts film produced by Rupert Hitzig for Berry Gordy and directed by Michael Schultz.

The last dragon end fight scene
Set in New York City, the movie follows a martial artist named Leroy Green (also known as "Bruce Leroy"), who has dreams of becoming a great martial artist like his idol Bruce Lee. His master (Thomas Ikeda) explains that he has reached the final level of martial arts accomplishment known as "The Last Dragon". Martial artists who reach this final level are said to be able to concentrate such mystical energy into their hands that they begin to glow. Only a true martial arts master would be able to exhibit "The Glow" over his entire body. Leroy doesn't fully understand and, in possession of a medal supposedly belonging to Bruce Lee, Leroy embarks upon a journey to find Master Sum Dum Goy, whom his master claims can help Leroy unlock the power of "The Glow".
Another martial artist, Sho'nuff (Julius J. Carry III) (also known as "The Shogun of Harlem") sees Leroy as the only obstacle to being acknowledged as the true master of martial arts. Leroy refuses to fight him and a furious Sho'nuff vows that he will defeat Leroy. Sho'nuff and his gang later break in and assault one of the students at Leroy's martial arts school, Johnny Yu (Glen Eaton), demanding that Leroy bow before Sho'nuff. Finally, Sho'nuff and his gang attempt to send a message to Leroy by destroying the Green family pizza restaurant.
Meanwhile, video arcade mogul Eddie Arkadian (Chris Murney) sends his men to kidnap 7th Heaven video host Laura Charles (Vanity) in the hopes of getting his girlfriend Angela Viracco's (Faith Prince) new music video featured on her show. The kidnap attempt is thwarted by Leroy who easily fends off the thugs. He loses his medal during the struggle, which Laura recovers. Later, Leroy witnesses Laura being kidnapped by Arkadian's brutish henchman Rock (Mike Starr). A clue left behind reveals that the kidnappers work for Eddie Arkadian Productions.
Laura refuses to promote Angela Viracco's video on her program, but as Arkadian's men prepare to coerce her by force, Leroy suddenly bursts into the room and rescues Laura once again. Back at her apartment, Laura gratefully returns Leroy's medal. Consumed with vengeance, Arkadian hires Sho'nuff to defeat Leroy and takes control of the 7th Heaven studio, capturing Laura and Leroy's younger brother, Richie, who has snuck in hoping to woo Laura.
Posing as a pizza delivery man, Leroy manages to infiltrate the assumed lair of Master Sum Dum Goy within a fortune cookie factory, but is shocked to discover that the "Master" is only a computer churning out cookie fortunes. Leroy consults his former master for answers, but his master suggests that Leroy has known the answers all along.
Not wanting anyone to get hurt in the process of achieving her stardom, Angela leaves Arkadian and asks Johnny to warn Leroy about his plan. As Leroy returns to 7th Heaven, he is ambushed by an army of violent thugs hired by Arkadian. Leroy's students, led by Johnny, charge into the studio to even the odds. Using Laura as bait, Eddie lures Leroy to a dilapidated building where he finally faces off against Sho'nuff. Sho'nuff reveals his ability to use "The Glow", his hands pulsating with a red aura, and beats Leroy viciously before attempting to force him to acknowledge Sho'nuff as "The Master". As recent events flash before Leroy's eyes, he realizes that his former Master was correct and that everything he needed to achieve the "Final Level" was within him all along. His entire body bathed in the sublime golden light of "The Glow", Leroy uses his newfound power to defeat Sho'nuff.
Arkadian appears and fires a single bullet which Leroy catches between his teeth before detaining Arkadian for the police. Laura and Leroy are reunited at the studio where the two kiss.

This was the first acting role for Taimak, a then-19-year-old black belt who learned to act on the set of this picture. Leroy and Richie's younger sister Sophie is portrayed by Cosby Show actress Keshia Knight Pulliam. Ernie Reyes, Jr., martial artist and actor, made his film debut at the age of twelve in this film. Leo O'Brien, the actor portraying Bruce Leroy's younger brother Richie, is the younger brother of Guy O'Brien, better known as "Master Gee" from the hip-hop group The Sugarhill Gang, as well as television host London Reyes a.k.a. "B-Boy London" of the New York City Breakers.
Veteran actor William H. Macy makes a brief appearance as "JJ", and Chazz Palminteri makes a brief appearance as "Hood #2". Carl Anthony Payne II, who appears in a small role as a kid in the family-owned pizza shop, went on to co-star in The Cosby Show and Martin.
Julius J. Carry III, in the role of Sho'nuff, trained in martial arts for the film, and later appeared in numerous television roles.
The film began production on exclusive New York City locations on April 16, 1984.
The Dojo and workout scenes were filmed at the Harlem Karate Institute of Grandmaster Ernest Hyman, Japanese Goju-Ryu, in Harlem, New York City.
The Victory Theater on 42nd Street which was used for the scene where Sho'nuff interrupts the viewing of Enter The Dragon was an adult movie theater. Ron Van Clief choreographed the fight for this scene in which Julius J. Carry III performed his own stunts.

Peter Larkin's spectacular Seventh Heaven club video set was built on Camera Mart stages at 54th and 10th Avenue, a set so impressive that Diana Ross, visiting one day, promptly asked if she could buy it for her next tour.
Berry Gordy was frequently on the set and had many of his Motown artists visit. Producer Suzanne de Passe was very hands on with the project.
The film is known for its soundtrack of the same name, featuring a bevvy of talent with references to martial arts from the East. The music was supervised by executive producer Gordy, the founder of Motown Records. Featured in this film is a DeBarge song, "Rhythm of the Night", written by Diane Warren. The song reached #3 on the Billboard Hot 100 and #1 on the Billboard R&B charts. The film's Richard Perry-produced title theme was nominated for Worst "Original" Song at the 1985 Golden Raspberry Awards, as was Vanity's song "7th Heaven". A song that was not featured but still benefited from critical acclaim was "Upset Stomach", written and performed by Stevie Wonder. It also marked the return of Willie Hutch to Motown with the song "The Glow". Charlene, known for her one-hit-wonder "I've Never Been to Me", performed the song "Fire" for the soundtrack, though it never charted.
The score was composed by Misha Segal. The love theme song called First Time on a Ferris Wheel was also composed by Misha Segal and performed by Smokey Robinson and Syreeta.
In 1997, rapper Busta Rhymes released the song "Dangerous". In the music video he dressed as Sho'Nuff for one scene, repeating lines from the film.
LMFAO's 2011 single "Sexy and I Know It" references the film with the lyric "And like Bruce Leroy I got The Glow".
Trinity McCray credits this film as the inspiration for her Glow gimmick that she uses on WWE Television.
The film received a mixed response from critics.
Film historian Leonard Maltin gave the movie 2 (out of a possible 4) stars, calling it "...Juvenile, campy and heavy-handed...Strictly kid-stuff, except for one gag: the name of the Chinatown warehouse."
In 2002 a paper in the Journal of Asian American Studies applauded the strong character development of the black hero, who reverses the stereotype of the typical Asian in an action film. The hero, while learning from an Asian Zen master, learns to use his internal strength and aura to overcome obstacles.

Do you know all these 8 faces of Philip Rivers?
In the seventh week of the regular season, NFL London will be the second time this season at Wembley Stadium. The Los Angeles Chargers from the western United States will play against Tennessee Titan in the southern part of the United States. For the Chinese audience, the game was held at 21:30 Beijing time, can be described as a "golden upstart" grand occasion, explained that NFL China will join Tencent Sports for you to bring live broadcast of the game, wonderful can not be missed!
When it comes to Los Angeles Chargers jerseys, the drifting team has a tepid record, with a veteran four-point guard in the crossbar League for more than a decade. Philip Rivers, like the Chargers team, has never caught fire in the public eye, even if he was one of the three big quarterbacks of the 041 season, even if he had the richest expression pack in the league.
Philip Rivers chose No. 17 because of his father, Steve Rivers, a well-known local high school basketball coach. Influenced by this, little Rivers loved basketball best. In fifth grade, Rivers used to put his head on the cover of a well-known basketball magazine during a manual assignment, pretending he was already a high-profile basketball genius.
Thank God, Rivers finally chose rugby. The basketball court lacks a mediocre point guard, and the rugby court has an additional commander with wisdom and decisiveness.
The other quarterbacks, at best one or two quarterbacks of the same rank, are not Phillip Rivers. His career is destined to be associated with many super quarterback.
Before entering the league, he was another outstanding quarterback. His name was Drew Bracey. Eventually, Chargers turned to younger, more quarterback-like Rivers, and Briss had to travel to New Orleans to join the Saints.
Philip Rivers jerseys is a single man. From high school to university to NFL, Rivers has been wearing number 17. Rivers is also committed to love. After his high school wife Tiffany fell in love, there was no woman in his life who could shake Tiffany's status.
Philip was a supporter of North Carolina from an early age. Considering his love of basketball as a teenager, it's not surprising to see him fall in love with North Carolina as Jordan becomes an emperor star step by step. However, such a loyal North Carolina fan did not get a letter from North Carolina after graduating from high school. So Rivers chose North Carolina State from "love and hate". He must be the most miserable time for the North Carolina olive fans in the years he served.
With the development of sports science, the professional life of athletes is getting longer and longer, and with the particularity of the position of quarterback, more and more "old men" begin to break a record. Brady looks like he can hit 45 years old. Bracey doesn't look at his age as a problem.
However, Rivers didn't even think about playing football for so long. In his career plan, he will retire before the age of 40, and then become a high school football coach.
Considering that Rivers is 37 years old this year. Treasure it. The old man wears the scene of No. 17 slaughter. It takes a glance.
Rivers will lead Los Angeles Chargers in an overseas battle with Tennessee Titan at Wembley Stadium at 21:30 on October 21, Beijing time. Tencent Sports and Blockbuster will broadcast the game live and NFL Rugby APP will also broadcast the full text of the game live.


Reuniting people, especially youth, with Nature.
The mission of The Center For Re-Connecting With Nature (CRWN) is to create pathways for all people, especially youth, to fall in love with nature. Creating positive relationships with the natural world allows physical, emotional and spiritual balance. CRWN promotes learning by having fun in nature, which counteracts the alienation caused by the indoor, virtual and urban worlds.
Our vision is for a world of balanced humans who have reverent and reciprocal relationships with Nature, and who live within Nature's laws and cycles.
In order to truly be affective, CRWN needs a place to call home…Land… where the Center can fully come to life. We envision a place where youth are being mentored in organic gardening, tending small livestock and farm animals, eating eggs they've gathered and making soap and cheese from goat milk. We see them learning primitive survival/thrival skills, helping to build structures, and caring for birds of prey. A Center where our vision of a raptor education center can be fully realized. A place for natural horsemanship and healing with horses programs happen. A place for camping on the land, where young and old alike can play. A place where nature is teacher, healer, and sanctuary.
A Center for Reconnecting with Nature.

A: You have an unitialized variable in readLines:
int len,nlines;       // nlines not initialized
char *p,line[MAXLEN];

while((len = getLine(line,MAXLEN)) > 0)
        // nlines used here
        if(nlines >= maxlines || (p = alloc(len)) == NULL)

Uninitialized local variables have undefined contents, so attempting to use that value leads to undefined behavior.
You need to set nlines=0 when you declare it.
I was able to quickly find this issue with valgrind, which gave me the following output:
==8219== Conditional jump or move depends on uninitialised value(s)

Olympics: Torch relay schedule intact for next year -Kyodo
Reuters, , Thursday 20 Aug 2020
Tokyo Olympic organisers plan to follow roughly the same schedule, delayed by a year, for the nationwide torch relay preceeding the postponed summer Games, Kyodo News reported on Thursday.
The relay is expected to start on March 25, 2021, in Fukushima prefecture from the J-Village soccer training centre, a symbol of Japan's reconstruction from the 2011 earthquake and tsunami, Kyodo said, citing unidentified officials with knowledge of the matter.
Runners are to pass through all 47 of Japan's prefectures in the relay lasting 121 days, as originally planned, the news agency said.
The relay had been scheduled to start in J-Village on March 26 this year, but just days before that, the International Olympic Committee and Japanese government decided to postpone the Games by a year because of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Organisers aim to stick to the event as originally planned but could still make changes to contain the spread of the coronavirus, Kyodo said.
"We are continuing to respect the original framework as much as possible while we review how we organise the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Torch Relay," the organising committee said in an emailed statement in reponse to the report.
The Tokyo Olympics are now scheduled to run from July 23 to Aug. 8, 2021.

Home/Blog/Success at the Best Print Hungary competition
ANY Security Printing Group achieved again excellent results at the Best Print Hungary professional competition of the Hungarian Association of Printing and Paper Industry. This time, due to the pandemic, in an unusual way, the best products of two years were awarded at the ceremony held within the PPDExpo event on 25 May 2022. The category prizes, the special prizes of the jury, of the Foundation for Printed Communication and of the Hungarian Technical Association of the Paper and Printing Industry, as well as the grand prizes for graphic design, printing and finishing were awarded.
We are proud to announce that ANY Security Printing Company has been awarded Gold and Bronze in the "Security Printing" category. The awards were granted for the Romanian Hall stamp block produced for the Hungarian Post, for the 150th Anniversary of Hungarian-Japanese Diplomacy stamp block and for the exceptional Vanuatu passport.
The renovated Romanian Hall of the Museum of Fine Arts has been captured on occasional stamp blocks, giving an overview of the 900 square metre hall. Graphic artist György Kara designed the block and 70 000 perforated and 4 000 cut stamps were produced. The other winner is the Japanese and Hungarian Posts' stamp set of 10-10 stamps issued in 35 000 copies to commemorate the 150th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations between Hungary and Japan. Two of the stamps on the block are joint issues and were designed by YAMADA Yasuko. The two Post Offices themselves designed the other eight stamps with the same theme, the Hungarian ones were created by Ágnes Berta. Thanks to ANY's developments, Vanuatu is the first country to have colourful graphics on the cover of a fully ICAO-compliant travel document. The passport contains far more anti-counterfeiting security features than the previous one, with the optical brightener-free unique watermarked security paper used as the base material for its pages, which contain security fibres and particles produced by ANY.
The products of our largest Hungarian subsidiary, Gyomai Kner Printing Company, also won many awards at Wednesday's ceremony. They won Gold, Silver and Bronze awards in four categories, the 140 Years of Kner Printing Company calendar series received the PNYME Special Award, and they were awarded the Finishing Grand Prix as well for the book Cezanne to Malevich.
Huge congratulations and thanks to all colleagues who contributed with their work and support to the production of the awarded products and thus to the further professional success of our Group!

Verses 9-13 are one sentence in Greek with no main verb, though most Eng. versions supply a series of imperatives. The call to love in v. 9a is the main theme of this section and in my analysis all the other clauses in vv. 9b-13 explain how love should be genuine. Paul's explanation of how believers are to pursue genuine love moves from a general orientation toward God and the world (abhoring the evil, clinging to the good) to practical, specific responses to God and to believers (contributing to the needs of the saints, seeking to show hospitality). Every clause in vv. 9b-13 fills out for us what genuine love looks like in action: Pursue genuine love ... by pursing what is good (v. 9), loving with brotherly affection while showing one another honor (v. 10), while serving the Lord with fervency and zeal (v. 11), while rejoicing in hope, enduring tribulation, and praying consistently (v. 12) by sharing your resources and homes with other believers in need (v. 13).

LAST week, President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo ordered a review of government policy on illegal mining operations on Mt. Diwalwal in Monkayo, Compostela Valley, after a dynamite blast on October 27 caused the collapse of a tunnel in a small-scale mine, leaving at least 18 miners killed. Many more are missing and are presumed dead, but exact figures are not available.
This is not the first mining accident on Diwalwal, where small-scale operations conducted by various groups—assorted fortune hunters but also former communist rebels, Muslim insurgents, soldiers and criminal gangs—?have been notoriously, and fatally, unsafe.
Diwalwal?s rich gold reserves were first discovered by lowlanders in the 1970s, and it became a gold-rush site, attracting thousands of prospectors from throughout the country, in the 1980s. Since then, the area has been known as a Wild West, where the government has been unable to impose its sovereignty. Instead, hundreds of illegal small-scale mines proliferate, operated by competing claimants who sporadically engage in gunbattles with their rivals. The mine operators use primitive and environmentally harmful mining technology and build fragile tunnels that are constantly in danger of collapse. Many of the workers are minors, who risk their lives in those tunnels. The following article, written in 1995 describes the life-threatening working conditions that young miners face everyday on Diwalwal.
In 2002, the government took over the minesite in an effort to ?rationalize? mining operations and to allow mine workers to share in more of the wealth generated there. The environment department signed service contracts that in effect legitimized the operations of subsistence miners. But three years later, the problem remains hanging, with the legality of those contracts now being questioned. Meanwhile, as the recent tunnel collapse showed, not enough has been done to improve mine safety and to diminish the hazards faced by workers.
How many more disasters in Mt. Diwalwal do we need before this band-aid fix applied by the authorities is stopped? Now another review is called to review the previous review. Wow!
More lives have been lost while the safety of miners continue to be neglected. Those photo-ops are not appreciated at all, let alone the knee-jerk reaction.

Q: modify existing where condition in sql expression Given this Sql Expression as an input parameter: (assume there's no way to modify how this input parameter is generated)
Db.From<Contact>().Where(C => C.Email != null).Or(C => C.Reference != null);

The method needs to append another condition, e.g.
exp.And(C.UserId == Session.UserId);

However the UserId condition must be true regardless of any existing conditions. But since the original Sql Expression uses "Or" the UserId condition is not enforced.
So the final Sql should look something like:
SELECT * FROM Contact WHERE (Email IS NOT NULL OR Reference IS NOT NULL) AND UserId == 12

At the moment the Sql generated looks like:
SELECT * FROM Contact WHERE Email IS NOT NULL OR Reference IS NOT NULL AND UserId == 12

Any one have any ideas?
EDIT:
So far the only thing that works is to hack the WhereExpression to add ( ) before and after the Where clause of the original Sql Expression. Just hoping there would be a nicer way.

A: .Where(C => C.UserId == Session.UserId)


New T-Cat with iact on the way. 2016 El Tigre 9000 for sale soon! Order #44 I think.
BTP and 1200X like this.
I have a feeling Cats snowchecks will be very good, the RIOT is a hit.

So the total ended at 46 spring ordered sleds from this group. Do you think that is a good or bad number for AC?
Bad IMO. But from claims on here cat did well. So I hope that they hit their numbers and maybe next year we get some new tech. And of course keep the prices on the cheap side of things.
I think it's good. Has to be a fair amount more than 2019 spring orders. Most dealers seem happy about the numbers. I'm sure there's some arcticchat guys that don't follow this site that ordered also.
Riot is going to be a winner. Hopefully the revised 800 is a overachiever. Also Cat needs to come out with something big next year to keep the momentum going.

The therapist was pretty, if bookish, and young; though not young enough that he couldn't take her seriously. She began, "Are you comfortable, Mr. Edgewater? I'm sorry: should I call you 'Colonel'? It's 'Colonel', isn't it?"
As he sat down, he answered, "You can call me Frank." He reached down and brushed at his trouser cuff with his hand.
"What can I do for you today, Frank?"
He waited a long moment before answering, "Well, I guess I've just been feeling a little unsettled lately. The NASA doc keeps saying that it's just 're-entry' problems. They always think that's so goddamn funny."
"Funny?"
"You know, 're-entry'? Astronauts having problems re-adjusting to a normal life on Earth. First comes re-entry, and then there's re-entry."
"I can see how that would be annoying. Do you think the NASA doctor is wrong, that it's more than just... adjustment issues?"
"Hallucinations aren't really part of that whole deal, usually. From what I understand."
"No, I wouldn't think so. What kind of hallucinations, specifically?"
Again, a long pause. He fidgeted in the chair, recrossed his legs, brushed at his trouser leg. Finally, he said, "Mars: being in the Module; landing; driving around; walking on the surface; the dust; liftoff and ascent."
"The planet itself; not the trip out or back?"
"Why do you suppose that is?"
He laughed. "We were the first people on Mars. It's the single most important moment of our lives. I make a living flying around the country — the world — talking about it. It's what I'll be remembered for. The trip was just getting there."
"Is that what brings you to Phoenix; your speaking tour?"
"What was it like, walking on the surface of another planet?"
"I never actually did. I wasn't one of the ones who got out onto the surface. Hell, three out of the full crew of ten never even landed: they had to stay in the orbiter. Seven of us went down in the Module. Richardson and I stayed inside, Module crew, while the science team went out and explored. You know, did their thing."
"But a minute ago, you said 'driving around'."
"The Descent Module itself was tracked, like a tank. It could make ten klicks per hour over flat terrain. We were down there a month, they wanted us to be able to transport the science team from feature to feature. It expanded our range, not being tethered to a fixed position."
"What was the science team looking for?"
"Water. Microbes, living or fossilized. Anything that proved that life had once existed or that it exists now."
"And they found it?"
"Oh, yeah, they found it. That's how we lost Rajesh Mehra. The science team found subsurface water, took samples on-site, found all sorts of microbes swimming around in it. On the last day they were hurrying to get more samples from other parts of the deposit, and Mehra punctured his suit while digging for soil samples. He got exposed to the water, contaminated. They patched up his suit, but he was already feverish by the time they got back to the Module. Richardson wouldn't let him in."
"Just wouldn't let him in?"
"Letting him into the module would have exposed everyone else. There was no way to isolate him."
"...and he died?"
"He was still alive when we lifted off. We left food and O tanks, and one of the emergency enclosures. But he can't have lasted long: he was half out of his mind, delirious."
"How did it make you feel, leaving him behind?"
"I felt awful. We all did. I had to push the launch button. Richardson offered to do it, to take responsibility given the circumstances, but it was my job. It was a terrible thing to have to do."
"Wasn't Mehra the Module pilot? Second-in-command to Richardson?"
Edgewater shrugged. "So?"
"Earlier I asked if I should call you 'Mister' or 'Colonel'—"
"Isn't it also 'Doctor'? 'Doctor' Edgewater?"
"And in what field did you earn your PhD?"
"Geology."
"So my question is: why were you, a geologist, waiting inside the Module while Mehra, who had no science degree, is out taking Martian soil samples?"
He looked out the window. "I don't know. It just worked out that way."
"Colonel, if I understand these things correctly, every aspect of a mission like this is carefully planned, scheduled down to the minute where possible, with maximum efficiency and best practices in mind, isn't that right?"
"Sure, but in—"
"You're brushing off your trousers again. Is there something on them?"
He realized she was right, his hand was on his ankle. He sighed. "Dust. I keep seeing dust on my pants leg and my shoes."
"What kind of dust?"
"Just dust. Dirt."
"What color is it?"
"Doc—"
"Frank, what color is the dust you keep seeing on your trouser leg and trying to brush away?"
He spat, "Red. It's red dust." He took a deep breath and regained his composure. "Well, more of a butterscotch tan. It's Martian dust. Iron Oxide. All right? I keep hallucinating that I have Mars dust on me. It would get all over you if you went outside; they had the same problem on the moon."
"But you never went outside, you said. In spite of the fact that you're a geologist, sent to Mars as part of a mission to look for subsurface water, you never set foot onto the surface..."
"That's right."
"...but Mehra did; and because he did, he was left to die."
"Yes." He reached out and took a long draught from his water glass. "You think I'm having hallucinations because I'm feeling guilty about Mehra? That maybe subconsciously I think he died in my place?"
"We haven't addressed why was he out there instead of you."
"It was his assignment."
"Ask NASA."
"You're a geologist, but you were inside crewing the Module. He was a pilot, but he was out on the surface digging in the dirt. Why?"
There was dust on his pants leg again, and he automatically reached down to brush it away. When he realized she was watching him do it he abruptly stopped, embarrassed. "I don't have an answer for you."
"I think you don't have an answer because you don't really think that's what happened."
"This is ridiculous. I'm wasting my time." He rose, bumping the table and causing water to slosh out of the glass; it pooled against the high shine of the finished wood and dripped from the table's edge and onto the carpeted floor.
Frank mumbled an apology and was making his way awkwardly to the door when she called out, "Who pushed the button? The one that launched the Module's ascent stage?"
"Me, I did. I told you already."
"You're not a pilot, you're a geologist. Digging samples is your job."
His hand was on the doorknob. He wanted to leave, but something held him back. He looked down at his trouser legs.
She said, pityingly, "You can't brush the dust away, it's always going to be there, you know that. Frank, who pushed the button?"
He found himself staring out the window of the therapist's office at the bleak Arizona landscape. It looked like a postcard, or something he'd seen on the front of a travel brochure. "Mehra. It would have been... it would have been Mehra."

In celebration of Maru Sushi Okemos' Tenth Birthday, we will be featuring some of those regular guests who have been with us since the beginning. First up: Sandy and Steve.
We fondly refer to Sandy and Steve as our honorary Grandparents at Okemos. The moment they walked in the doors late 2009 they couldn't resist the cocktails, fresh fish, and outstanding service. They once frequented another restaurant, but after their first Maru experience, they never went back. Every week, we know what Sandy and Steve will order: nigiri, a different sushi roll, and often times their new favorite, our Fried Tofu Appetizer, which they just discovered they love. They also love our Tempura Land and Sea. "Your Tempura is hands down the BEST tempura I've had in the entire United States," Sandy included.
What do you love most about Maru?
What are your favorite Maru Memories?
Steve: "We used to give Chef Moon a price range and then he would just create us the most beautiful dishes and appetizers while we would sit at the sushi bar."
At this point Sandy and Steve were on the last sips of their drinks. I made sure to make a reservation for Thursday at their usual seats, for our special Chef Moon guest spot light. The perfect evening for these honorary regulars we seat every week, with pleasure.
Thank you, Sandy and Steve!


DC excited glass CO2 laser tubes (as well as some high power RF exited metal tubes) are water cooled. The typical coolant is distilled water. This is important because the conductivity of distilled water is much lower and it does not readily promote algae growth. With the K40 laser engraver the cooling system usually consists of a small submersible pump placed in a reservoir with around 5 gallons of water. I typically add 7-12 drops of aquarium algaecide and 7-10 drops of dishwashing liquid to 4.5 gallons. The algaecide for obvious reasons and the dish soap to act as a surfactant which helps flow rate and prevents microbubbles from forming due to surface tension on the walls of the tube. It is also a detergent. I have been running the same water for over a year with no issues.
The ambient room temperature, total water volume, and laser usage all affect the performance of the cooling system. The ideal temperature range is between 10 and 24 degrees C. Higher temperatures will decrease the life and performance of the tube and can cause critical failures. If the tube freezes it is gone. If you have the unit in freezing temperatures you can add a special antifreeze to it. Do NOT use automotive antifreeze/coolant (ethylene glycol) as it is a corrosive agent and oxidizer and it also raises the level of conductivity of the coolant enough to allow arcing of the tube. The correct type of antifreeze is RV Antifreeze (propylene glycol). It is non-toxic and does not affect conductivity enough to cause arcing in most cases. You can find more on Coolants & Additives HERE.
As far as tubing for the laser only use food grade silicone tubing (8mmx12mm is a standard size). Other tubing materials can be electrically conductive and can leech impurities into the water.
It is important to accurately monitor the temperature of the tube. It is also strongly recommended to add a pressure/flow switch to the system if it does not already have one. This will prevent the laser from firing if these is a coolant system failure. There are various types and configurations of these systems and will be discussed in more detail in future articles.
Additives of any kind affect the conductivity and other properties of the cooling system. There is more detailed info about additives in Don's Blog located HERE and in my article HERE.
If you experience higher than desired temperatures you can add more coolant volume, reduce ambient temperature, adjust power and duty cycle of the laser engraver, add ice to the coolant, etc… There are also industrial chillers available which will regulate the temperature. Some of the commonly mentioned "chillers" are the Chinese CW-3000 and CW-5000 series. Beware when looking at this option because the 3000 series is not a chiller. It is a passive cooler. It uses and air cooled radiator and a fan. The 5000 series usually has active cooling. This means there is a condenser, evaporator, compressor, etc… in it that can cool well below ambient temps.
When looking at CW series chillers make sure they are real S&A brand units and not a clone. There are also chiller made for aquariums that are active and are a good choice. It is important to to your research before spending all that money on a chiller and make sure it is right for your specific situation. See the documentation on identifying S&A chillers HERE.


Last day of BM#50 and according to the theme I decided to make the fried dough foods.When I was going through the list Churros got my attention since it was in my to do list so long.
I had churros,couple of times in Carnival and liked it a lot,its a quiet addictive snack.
According to Wiki,Churro is a thin cylindrical,fried dough pastry snack.Churros are popular in Spain,Mexico and USA,they are normally dipped in a chocolate sauce and served.
In some parts of Spain its often served as for breakfast and even the size,shape also differs.
The method of making Churros resembles the South Indian murukku,whereas the cooked dough is squeezed in the hot oil and fried.Then the fried churros are dusted with either powdered or granulated sugar.
Mix the all purpose flour and baking powder and keep it aside.Heat a pan with water,to this add the slat,sugar and oil.Let it come to a rolling boil.Put off the flame.Now carefully add the flour and mix it well vigorously with a ladle.After it comes to cool to handle,smooth the dough with hands.The dough should be nice and smooth.Meanwhile heat the oil in a pan in a medium flame.
Take the prepared batter in a murukku press or piping bag.Once the oil becomes hot enough gently squeeze the dough for 3-4 inches strip.Using a butter knife or scissors cut the dough while squeezing.Fry 5-6 strips at a time till it becomes golden color.Drain it on a paper towel.Once the churros are just cool to handle roll in the sugar mixture.
Serve it warm with chocolate sauce.
Before adding the dough into the murukku maker smoothen it one more time to geta nice smooth churros..
Instead of granulated sugar,powdered sugar can also be used..
Cover the dough with a plate or cloth to prevent drying.
Check out my fellow bloggers participating in Blogging Marathon #50 here.
Yummy churros. This has been on my to do list from along time and that piping bag thing kept me from away from trying it so far. Your murukku press idea sounds good.
Churros looks great! Nicely done. Nice pics..
Churros are my favourite!! They look so lovely..
Delicious churros.. Have eaten them in Costco.. It is on my list for so long.. Bookmarking..
tis is my most fav.. yummy preperation..

these clicks are amazing. churros look delicious and perfectly made!
yummy churros.. We had them in carnivals too.
First of all,love that serving plate! And this is something I have been wanting to try out.Your pics are really so inviting!
Churros have been on my to-make list for a long time. Yours turned out golden and delicious. Lovely clicks as always.
Lovely churros. Shall have to make these sometime!
Dont tortue me like this, its my favourite and trying to keep me away from deepfrying, now u are tempting me.

This pillar fragment comes from a building constructed east of the Temple of Amon at Karnak. It represents the face of Amenophis IV-Akhenaten, in the easily-recognizable Amarna style. In the early years of his reign, the Pharaoh imposed the monotheistic cult of the god Re, whose visible manifestation on earth was the sun-disk, Aten. At the same time, he changed his name from Amenophis to Akhenaten.
Amenophis IV, the son of Amenophis III and his favored queen, Tiy, came to the throne of Egypt in 1372 BC and reigned for seventeen years. After spending four years in Thebes, the city of his predecessors, he built a new capital, Akhetaten, in Middle Egypt. Amenophis IV made the new city the center of an official religion devoted to the god Re, who communicated his beneficent power to Earth via the rays of the sun-disk, Aten.
In the early years of his reign, Amenophis IV ordered the construction of a sanctuary dedicated to the sun falcon, Re-Horakhty, east of the Temple of Amon at Karnak. The immense peristyle courtyard featured pillars decorated with colossal images of the Pharaoh, in the so-called "Osirian" pose: standing, legs together, with arms crossed on the chest and a royal scepter in each hand. The portrait is a fragment from one of these pillars.
The figure corresponds closely to its architectural setting (this was a colussus carved on one side of a pillar), and respects the conventional pose and attributes of the Pharaoh. Its style and inscriptions, however, distinguish it from all other classical royal portraits. It is easily identified as a work in the Amarna style, corresponding to the reign of Amenophis IV-Akhenaten.
Several documents record that the Pharaoh himself drew up new stylistic rules for his sculptors to follow. The new canon is represented perfectly here. The Pharaoh's body is no longer that of an athlete, expressing the power of his function; on the contrary, the shoulders are wide but flat; the chest is almost feminine; the waist high and narrow; the hips thick and wide, and the stomach low and round. The face is also typical of the new, more naturalistic tendency: the features are defined by straight, angular lines and flat surfaces, contrasting with softer, rounded forms. Its elongated shape is accentuated by a false beard that extends down to the chest.
The portrait's subject is identified by a number of cartouche inscriptions. The hieroglyphics do not mention the Pharaoh by name, but refer instead to the god he represented on Earth: "Re-Horakhty appeared on the horizon as Shu, who is in the disk."
This colossus therefore represents the Pharaoh and his dynasty as the divinely-appointed incarnation of the sun-god.

    //def dropboxfolder = "/home/jsiddharth/Dropbox/mylibs"

    repositories {
        jcenter()
        mavenCentral()
    }
}

apply plugin:'java'
apply plugin : 'war'

repositories {
    jcenter()
    mavenCentral()
}

dependencies {
    // I copied all local jar's to the libs folder that contains the build.gradle file.
    compile fileTree(dir: 'libs', include: '*.jar')

    // compile files('${dropboxfolder}/local.jar'), this did not work, so commented

    compile(project(':localproject'))
    testCompile 'junit:junit:4.12'
}

Dependencies inside the buildscript block are used for the build script itself.
Btw. all that has nothing to do with the .classpath file used by eclipse.

Assessment of Conflict-Affected Families Begins in Kunduz, Afghanistan
Heavy fighting in Kunduz province in September and October displaced thousands of families and caused widespread damage. Humanitarian access to the province has been limited for the past month due to insecurity.
IOM staff are on the ground in Kunduz city this week, playing a lead role in a needs assessment of conflict-affected families.
A joint UN humanitarian mission arrived in Kunduz on Saturday (31/10) to join assessment teams with government and national/international NGO partners. Initially, the assessment will cover 13 locations in Kunduz city.
Assessment partners will be utilizing the Multi-Sector Rapid Assessment Form (MSRAF), recently revised and rolled out by IOM, UNOCHA and other humanitarian agencies.
The MSRAF is a common rapid assessment tool for humanitarian emergencies. It captures key information on the demographics and needs of affected populations, including age, gender, critical vulnerabilities, sector-specific needs (e.g. health, food security, shelter and education) and existing local capacity.
"As humanitarian actors regain access to Kunduz, the information gathered through this assessment will be vital for helping to get the right kind of aid to those who need it most," said Zainullah Sultani, IOM's team leader in Kunduz.
The MSRAF was initially developed in 2011, with funding support from USAID's Office of U.S. Foreign Disaster Assistance. It has since been adopted as the main multi-cluster assessment tool for humanitarian response in Afghanistan.
The Afghan government is fully involved with the assessment efforts, with representatives from the provincial governor's office, Afghanistan National Disaster Management Authority, Ministry of Refugees and Repatriation, and other relevant bodies, part of the assessment teams.
"This multi-sectoral needs assessment is broader, which will help us to plan both the immediate and long-term response," said Hamdullah Danishi, Acting Governor of Kunduz.
Following the assessment in Kunduz city and analysis of the information gathered through the MSRAF, preparations will begin to deliver assistance to families in need. Further assessments in Kunduz are planned, when conditions allow.

The Onion? Austin Powers? No, sadly, the above is a headline from today's London Guardian. Turns out there's a shortage of dentists in Britain such that less than half the population is registered with one. For for those of us British expatriates who've labored, by example and argument, to combat the widely shared idea that Brits are dentally challenged — well, let's just say this development sets us back years.
"We are bringing in 1,000 dentists between now and the autumn," [said the British health minister.] We are at this moment negotiating with the British Dental Association an improved contract to bring dentists back into the [National Health Service].
While they wait for aged dentists to dust off the old drill, and younger ones to be recruited, authorities in Scotland are handing out free toothpaste and toothbrushes to children. Oh, the shame!


I'm picking at your mind because I'm soul searching.
So says Justice Freeman who does exactly so through his music.
The aspiring rap artist, UrbanRoyalty (Freeman), reaches our souls and makes his way to the top by being verified on SoundCloud for four weeks now helping him prosper in the music industry and become an influential artist to his urban community, as well as others all around.
Drawing inspiration from Chris Brown and Frank Ocean at the age of five, Freeman later grew his passion for rap by being exposed to artists such as Kanye West. He even made his first rap song in fifth grade, and took it more seriously in eighth grade when his remix to Bobby Shmurda's "Hot Boy" blew up on his school campus, Pershing Middle School.
UrbanRoyalty's goal is to create a sound that will touch people, speak for those that can't, and let others feel the emotions he goes through.
"I'm not afraid of being vulnerable and pouring my whole heart out into my music," Freeman said.
He does exactly so in order to achieve his goal, ready to "go all in". As a leader, he tries to better himself and others through his art, knowing that music greatly triggers emotions which he hopes to reach in a positive way.
Being excited about his future as an artist, Freeman hopes that his music won't be temporary, but will have longevity and will be listened to years on.
"I used to ALWAYS search ways to contact celebs, and see who actually replies," Freeman said.
To get to where he wants to be, UrbanRoyalty searched ways to contact celebrities and even received emails from a London A&R representative who heard his music. However, reaching his goals has always come with struggles, sometimes causing him wanting to quit, but he knows the importance of his art and still pushes for goals such as one day selling out arenas.
Freeman will continue to search for our souls through his art in hopes that one day he will become an inspiring and motivational artist for people all around the world.
UrbanRoyalty is the real deal. I've heard and seen this young man's progression for many years. His gift of light through his music is like the sun. The closer your experience of him and his soulful flow, the more you will feel the brilliance and heat from out of this world! This young man was born to stay "Lit" and help light the way for the world! UrbanRoyalty is walking, lyrically melodic love❤ Enjoy!


If a trip to New York City is on the agenda, don't be scared. Even though Manhattan has a history rife with crime and shadiness, most tourists find their visit to the Big Apple to be uneventful and fun. However, there are risks for the unwary, ranging from monetary loss to violent crime. Before striking out to the big city, prepare yourself for New York City's pitfalls to minimize the possibility of mishap.
It's almost a certainty that you'll get lost in Manhattan. It happens to everyone, even long-time residents. and can actually serve as a way to find interesting new sights. Luckily, much of New York City is organized along a tidy grid system: avenues run from north to south, while streets flow from east to west. This grid stops in much of downtown, however. There is also the Fifth Avenue and Broadway cross-over at 23rd Street that commonly confuses people. To top it off, city residents may seem harried and disinclined to welcome direction requests from visitors.
To combat confusion, keep a map in your pocket at all times. If using a smartphone, make sure that your GPS is fully functional; if not, sign onto Google for handy walking or transit directions. Plus, don't be afraid to ask a New Yorker for directions if you're lost. Even though they may look harsh, most are happy to help.
Manhattan is full of people who are happy to help a tourist part with their cash. Whether it's a low-cost Prada purse, criminally cheap Rolex or non-Medallion cab, there are lots of ways to lose money in New York City. As many city dwellers also know, panhandlers may even be fraudulent.
To avoid this, remember a simple fact: if it seems too good to be true, it is. There is no such thing as a Prada or Rolex item for less than several thousand dollars, and a cab without a meter isn't a legitimate taxi. Unless you're specifically shopping for designer knock-offs, stick to popular stores and shopping areas for genuine goods.
New York City has cleaned up its act dramatically. Between 2001 and 2009, overall crime fell by 34 percent citywide, according to the New York City Police Department. While this is reassuring, it doesn't mitigate the need for street smarts and defensive action.
When in New York City, do as New Yorkers do: walk confidently, avoid unnecessary eye contact and keep your belongings close. Keep all money, cards and electronic gadgets hidden as much as possible to deter theft. Finally, yell "Fire!" instead of "Help!" in an emergency. According to NY.com, "People will come look if they think there's a fire, but "Help" is like crying wolf."
Manhattan has a faster pace than most cities in the United States, with dawdlers learning quickly about speed and efficiency. When folks are in a rush to catch their train or bus, slow or unwary travelers can find themselves shoved to the side or jostled out of the way. In addition, sidewalks and streets are filled with opportunities for mishap due to rickety grilles, uneven pavement and aggressive drivers.
If your pace is slow or relaxed, stand to the right on staircases and escalators. This allows fast-moving traffic to pass without impediment. Walk around grates and grilles, and avoid manholes spouting steam. Look carefully before crossing the street; don't follow the pedestrian horde if you're not comfortable doing so. Remember, it's best to stay on the periphery if you're traveling casually.

Buhari condoles with the Shonekans in Lagos
by Ebere Ndukwu
President Muhammadu Buhari Thursday evening condoled with the family of the late Head of the Interim National Government (ING), Chief Ernest Shonekan, at their Ikoyi, Lagos, home.
The President and his team were received by the widow of the deceased, Mrs Margaret Shonekan, and family members.
A statement by Femi Adesina, the president's spokesman, said Buhari was accompanied to the Shonekans' home by Ogun State Governor, Prince Dapo Abiodun, Lagos State Governor, Babajide Sanwo-Olu, and Yobe State Governor, Mai Mala Buni, who is also Chairman, Caretaker and Convention Planning Committee, All Progressives Congress.
President Buhari encouraged the widow and members of the family, saying he was saddened to hear news of the passage of the former Head of the ING.
He wrote in the condolence register: "I received with profound sadness the news of the death of a great statesman and former Head of the Interim National Government, Chief Ernest Shonekan.
"His love and commitment to the peace and unity of the country are things to emulate.
Governor Abiodun told the family that President Buhari was determined to visit, despite a day that had started at about 7 am.
"He was in Ogun State, where he commissioned five legacy projects. But due to the regard and respect he had for Chief Shonekan, he is here now. May Papa's soul rest in peace," the Ogun governor said.
Governor Sanwo-Olu said though he hailed from Ogun State, Lagos was Chief Shonekan's resident State for over 60 years. "He was a highly respected man, true nationalist, father, grandfather and great grandfather to so many.
"We will miss him, but be comforted that he lived a good life. God will stand by the family. All will be well with you, and with Nigeria."
The three accompanying governors also signed the condolence register.

Exploring History, Archaeology, Science, and Culture.
The Pilling Collection: The Case of the Missing Fremont Figurine
July 2, 2018 July 2, 2018 by Jason Pentrail
The Fremont Culture, named for the Fremont River Valley in which the first sites were discovered and researched, dates from approximately 600 – 1300 AD. Located in Utah and adjacent parts of Idaho, Nevada, and Colorado, they are known for their unique traditions, which separates the Freemont from other well-known Puebloan ancestors like the Anasazi.
The Fremont Culture lived in a style of dugout pit house that would have been covered with a natural fiber roof, often composed of brush. They also made use of available rock shelters or caves in the region, subsisting on both agricultural and hunter-gatherer methods of food collection and preparation. The river bottoms provided excellent soil for growing the "three sisters" of corn, beans, and squash along with other edible native plants.
While this approach to hunting and growing was common at this time in history, the Fremont Culture had several unique characteristics that separated them from other local communities. One example is a singular style of basketry known as one-rod-and-bundle. According to David Madsen in his article in the Utah History Encyclopedia, this style is so unique "it has led some to suggest that the Fremont Culture can be defined on the basis of this single artifact category alone. This technique is markedly different from that used by both contemporary Anasazi groups and from later historically known Numic-speaking groups such as the Ute and Shoshoni."

Other unique artifacts associated with the Fremont Culture include brilliant pictographs, a distinct style of moccasin, and most notably, a beautiful and endearing type of rock art generally called Fremont figurines.
In 1950 near Range Creek Utah, Clarence Pilling along with three other ranchers are exploring an overhang when he makes the astounding discovery in a small cave. There tucked away for centuries on a natural shelf lay 11 clay figurines of stunning beauty and intricacy. These highly decorated figurines were between four and six inches in height, each having its own individual style. They were made of unbaked clay, and seemed to show evidence of black, red, and buff-colored paint. Clarence removed the figurines, and they eventually appeared at various locations where they were placed on public display. However, during one of these early display tours, one of the figurines was found to be missing from the collection.
The collection remained incomplete for decades with no real expectation that the original figurines would ever have a hope of being reunited. That is until an anonymous package arrived for Utah State University anthropologist Bonnie Pitbaldo in 2011. According to Kevin Opsahl, writing for hjnews.com, Professor Pitbaldo's assistant informed her that a box had arrived for her with a figurine; appearing to be Native American and wrapped in a soft leather covering, it was accompanied by an anonymous note, which read:
"Sometime between 1978 and 1982 I came into possession of this piece by way of a vagabond acquaintance. He had told of 'acquiring' it near Vernal, Utah. I have great interest and respect for this continent's native culture and have always hoped to somehow return this to wherever it had come from. … I am very excited at the prospect of it being returned to its proper place."
Could it be that the missing piece, after decades of being lost, might have returned? Or was it a fake, and what do we know about the original artifacts themselves?

The investigation began with a team of scientists lead by Pitbaldo, with assistance from the Utah Crime Laboratory. One of the most striking details of the returned piece was that the maker's fingerprints were still embedded in the unfired clay. After examination by the Utah Crime Lab, the fingerprints did not return a match of any known, living persons.
The next mystery centered around the markings on the back of each of the figurines. Pitbaldo and her team noted that the impressions on the back of each figurine appeared to be made from a variety of coiled basketry, which had likely been used to dry the pieces. For this part of the puzzle, the team sought the opinion of J.M. Adovasio, one of the foremost authorities on ancient basketry, who spent years studying varieties of cordage during his years at the University of Utah. Adovasio decided to lay each of the figurines out on a bed of cornstarch, thus allowing the impressions to be captured in fine detail. He confirmed that the diameter of the impressions matched that of the Fremont style of basketry.
Additional evidence supporting the authenticity of the figurines came with the knowledge that in the early 1950s–prior to when the figurine went missing–Harvard's Peabody museum had coated all of the figurines with a substance for stabilization known as Alvar. Kevin Opsahl reports that BYU scientists detected the substance on the returned figurine, lending further to its authenticity.
Thus, testing and examination determined that the Fremont Figurines are indeed together again at last. The collection is now on display at the Utah State University Eastern Prehistoric Museum.

Q: Trying to Optimise jQuery function used in SharePoint Page I'm attempting to optimise the jQuery code below, it iterates through all the TD tags on the page searching for any that has "eventClassXXXXXX" as its class attribute (where "XXXX" could be numeric or alphabetic).
$(document).ready(function () {
    $("td").each(function () {
        $(this).attr("class", this.className.replace(/eventClass/gi, 'eventClass '));
    });
});

so it would change
""

to
"

The problem is it takes ages to run on a sharepoint page (right-click on a sharepoint page and click view source to see why). The reason I have to do this is becauyse there is a third party webpart on the page that I'm attempting to restyle (wasn't supplied as open-source)
Let me know if you have any ideas on optimizing this or another way round. Thanks
Thanks

A: Maybe something like this would be faster:
$('td[class^=eventClass]').attr('class','eventClass');

If there's some sort of container element available (perhaps the table), this would be much better:
$('#container').find('td[class^=eventClass]').attr('class','eventClass');


Doctors in Miami faced an unusual ethical dilemma when an unconscious, deteriorating patient was brought into the emergency room with the words "Do Not Resuscitate" across his chest.
The 70-year-old man was taken earlier this year to Jackson Memorial Hospital, where doctors made their startling discovery: a chest tattoo that seemed to convey the patient's end-of-life wishes. The word "Not" was underlined, and the tattoo included a signature.
It left the medical team grappling with myriad ethical and legal questions.
Was it an accurate representation of what the patient wanted? Was it legally sound? Should they honour it?
The case was detailed Thursday in the New England Journal of Medicine, in a report that laid out the medical team's struggle for answers.
"This patient's tattooed DNR request produced more confusion than clarity, given concerns about its legality and likely unfounded beliefs that tattoos might represent permanent reminders of regretted decisions made while the person was intoxicated," the paper's authors wrote.
Holt said the patient, who had a history of pulmonary disease, lived at a nursing home but was found intoxicated and unconscious on the street and brought to Jackson Memorial.
He arrived with no identification, no family or friends and no way to tell doctors whether he wanted to live or die.
Holt said the man had an infection that led to septic shock, which causes organ failure and extremely low blood pressure.
When his blood pressure started to drop, emergency room doctors called Holt, who specializes in pulmonary disease — and they first agreed not to honour the tattoo, "invoking the principle of not choosing an irreversible path when faced with uncertainty," according to the case study.
They gave the man intravenous fluids, antibiotics and blood-pressure medication to buy themselves more time to make the life-or-death decision.
The medical team used a breathing mask on the man, Holt said, but struggled the most with the decision to hook him up to a machine that would breathe for him.
Doctors treating the elderly patient knew of "a cautionary tale" published in 2012 in the Journal of General Internal Medicine. That paper told of a 59-year-old patient who had a "D.N.R." tattoo across his chest but said he wanted life-saving measures to be taken, in the event that he needed them.
When the patient was asked why he had the tattoo, he told doctors he had "lost a bet playing poker," according to the report.
Florida requires do-not-resuscitate orders to be printed on yellow paper and signed by a physician, so doctors at Jackson Memorial called an ethics consultant to discuss the legal aspects of the tattoo.
Holt said the consultant determined doctors didn't need to be entirely "dogmatic" and could presume the tattoo was an accurate reflection of the patient's wishes.
After reviewing the patient's case, the ethics consultants advised us to honour the patient's do not resuscitate (DNR) tattoo. They suggested that it was most reasonable to infer that the tattoo expressed an authentic preference, that what might be seen as caution could also be seen as standing on ceremony, and that the law is sometimes not nimble enough to support patient-centred care and respect for patients' best interests.
In any case, social workers were later able to track down the man's proper DNR paperwork, leaving doctors relieved, Holt said.
The man, who was never publicly identified, died the next morning.
Arthur Caplan, a professor of bioethics and head of the division of medical ethics at the New York University School of Medicine, said a DNR tattoo is not a substitute for an advance health-care directive, or living will.
There are no legal penalties for ignoring a tattoo that instructs medical personnel not to resuscitate, Caplan said.
On the other hand, he said, letting a patient die without the legal documents to back it up could pose a problem.
"The safer course is to do something," he said. But, he added, doctors routinely have to make difficult decisions.
Caplan said patients should also make sure their families and friends are aware of their wishes. If a family member or friend calls 911, Caplan said, the emergency medical technicians are going to resuscitate the patient.
"If you trigger the emergency response system, I'm going to say it's pretty darn likely you're going to get resuscitated — I don't care where your tattoo is," Caplan said.
Holt, the doctor at Jackson Memorial, said his patient's tattoo seemed like a serious request, and doctors honoured it.
"It also seemed that he didn't trust that his end-of-life wishes would be conveyed appropriately," he said of the patient. "So, to me, it means we need a better system.
