Felsőlendva (szlovénul Grad [graːt], korábban Gornja Lendava [ˌgoːrnja lɛnˈdaːva], németül Oberlindau [ˈoːbɐlindaʊ]) falu és a hasonló nevű alapfokú közigazgatási egység, azaz község központja Szlovéniában, Pomurska régióban, a Muravidéken.

Fekvése
Muraszombattól 20 km-re északnyugatra, a Muravidék északi részén, a Goričko szlovén tájegység területén, a Gradski-patak partján fekszik.

Története
A környező területet III. Béla magyar király 1183-ban a szentgotthárdi monostornak adományozta. Az első erődítményt a templomosok építették a keresztes háborúk idején. 1208-ban Vasvári András gróf hűbérbirtoka lett, ő jelentősen kibővítette a várat. Ekkor említik először írásban is "Lyndwa" alakban. Valószínűleg már ekkor állt a régi templom is, melyet Ottokár cseh katonái pusztítottak el. 1269 és 1275 között II. Ottokár cseh király birtokában volt, majd a Gutkeled nembeli Amadéé, a Felsőlendvaiak őséé lett. Amadé Miklós szlavóniai bán 1367-ben csatát vívott Hodos mellett és megszerezte a muraszombati uradalmat is. Az Amadé család család kihalása után, 1365-ben a vár birtokcserével a Széchyek tulajdonába került.

Felsőlendva település a középkori vár körül alakult ki. 1365-ben "Waraliafolu" néven említik abban az oklevélben, melyben Felsőlendva várát a hozzátartozó 73 faluval I. Lajos magyar király elcseréli Széchy Miklóssal Éleskő és Miskolc uradalmáért, valamint a Szent Péter és Pál apostolok tiszteletére létesült tapolcai apátság kegyuraságáért. 1478-ban már mezőváros, hiszen "opidum Lyndwa" alakban említik, majd 1499 ismét "oppidum Felsewlyndwa" néven szerepel.

Felsőlendva plébániáját még 1400 előtt alapították. A Széchy család a 16. században jelentősen hozzájárult a protestantizmus elterjesztéséhez a vidéken. Felsőlendva temploma is protestáns kézbe került. A katolikusok csak 1660-ban alapították újra plébániájukat. Filiái Kuzma, Motolyád, Ottóháza, Radófa, Szentmátyás, Tiborfa, Vaskorpád, Vaskovácsi, Vidorlak és Völgyköz voltak. A várat birtokosai rendszeresen bővítették, fejlesztették. Ennek ellenére a 16. és a 17. században többször is elfoglalták. 1515-ben és 1549-ben a felkelő parasztok, 1605-ben és 1616-ban a Habsburg-ellenes felkelők, 1685-ben és 1688-ban pedig török fosztotta ki. Utoljára 1704-ben a kurucok foglalták el. 1684-ben a Széchy család is kihalt férfiágon, és a birtok a Batthyányiaké, majd a Szapáryaké, illetve a Széchenyi családé lett, akik az első világháború végéig birtokolták.

A település mezővárosi rangban a 19. században a Tótsági járás egyik nagytelepülése volt. 1890-ben már hivatalos neve is Felsőlendva, ekkor alapították a helyi önkéntes tűzoltó egyletet is.

A trianoni békeszerződésig, majd 1941- 1945 ismét Vas vármegye Muraszombati járásához tartozott. 1919-ben rövid időre de facto Vendvidéki Köztársaság része volt.

1952-ben hivatalos nevét Gradra változtatták az addigi Gornja Lendava helyett.

Népesség
1890-ben 809 lakost számláltak a településen, közülük 660 szlovén, 121 német, 23 magyar és 2 egyéb nemzetiségű volt.

1910-ben 1025, többségben szlovén lakosa volt, jelentős magyar kisebbséggel. 1921-ben a népszámlálás szerint 1024 szlovén, 20 magyar, 20 német lakta, közülük 976 katolikus, 82 evangélikus volt. 1931-ben 1020 lakost számláltak itt. 1961-ben 937 lakosa volt. 1971-ben 920 lakosa, 197 háza, 221 háztartása volt, lakói főként mezőgazdaságból éltek.

2002-ben a községnek 2302, Felsőlendvának külön 686 lakosa volt.

Nevezetességei
 A felsőlendvai vár Szlovénia legnagyobb várépülete. Mai ötszögű formáját a 17. és 18. században kapta, amikor a kényelmetlen középkori épületet barokk stílusú várkastéllyá építették át.  Ebből az időszakból származik a vár kápolnája is,  tornya  1751-ben épült. A vár védelmi céljait szolgálta a sziklába ásott várkút. Pincéjében hatalmas börtön volt. Számos értékes fával beültetett nagy park övezte, ahol két halastavat is létesítettek. A két világháború között az akkor még jó állapotban lévő vár Hartner Géza muraszombati nagybirtokos tulajdonában volt. A második világháború során a vár súlyos sérüléseket szenvedett és teljesen kifosztották. A háború után szovjet csapatokat szállásoltak el benne, majd köztulajdonba vették. Egy darabig hivatalokat helyzetek el benne, néhány család is beleköltözött, de egyre jobban leromlott az állapota. A hetvenes évek elejére részben felújították, házasságkötő termet  és múzeumot berendeztek be benne. A felújítási munkák 2008-ban is folytatódnak EU-s támogatással.
 A Nagyboldogasszony tiszteletére szentelt római katolikus temploma 14. századi gótikus épület, de legrégibb részei még román stílusban valószínűleg 1275 körül épültek. A 14. században épült a szentély és a templomhajó, eredeti gótikus mennyezetét 1660-ban átépítették. 1690-ben fatornyot építettek hozzá. A mai 35 méter magas harangtorony 1729-ben épült. 1781-ben a templomot teljesen megújították. Főoltára 1778-ban készült, Janez Klein szobrászművész alkotása, rajta áll az 1510-ben készített Mária a Kisjézussal szobor. Mellette kétoldalt Keresztelő Szent János és Szent József aranyozott szobrai láthatók.
 A település központjában áll a Munkás Szent József kápolna.
 A déli részen álló Fehér Keresztet az 1740-es pestisjárvány emlékére állították. Egykor festmények díszítették, melyek azonban ma már nem láthatók.
 A település szélén álló 18. századi kriptába a Széchyek temetkeztek. A második világháború után a sírboltot kifosztották.
 Ipari műemlék az 1921-ben épített Pütar-malom. Ma már nem működik, de berendezései ma is láthatók. A malmot 2009-ben uniós támogatással restaurálták.
 A Kuzma felé vezető úthoz közeli kőfejtőben egykor bazaltos tufát termeltek.

Expand Health Coverage
We just turned away additional money that could've generated billions of dollars of economic growth in this state. From an anti-poverty perspective, that was a mistake. From an economic development perspective, it was an incredible mistake. It was an incredible opportunity that was wasted. Healthier and wealthier? Apparently not in Oklahoma.
-Mickey Hepner, Dean of the UCO College of Business, on Oklahoma's refusal to accept billions in federal funds for expanding health coverage
The benefits of expanding coverage far outweigh the costs.
Oklahomans get sicker, die sooner, and go without much needed health care at some of the highest rates in the nation. But today we have a huge opportunity to save lives and protect struggling rural and community health care providers by expanding health coverage to uninsured low-income workers and their families.
Accepting the funds would save Oklahoma money. The federal government would send more than $12 to Oklahoma for every $1 in state spending. The economic boost is estimated to increase funds for education and other services by $450 million.
Expanding health coverage is especially important for hard-working Oklahomans who we interact with on a daily basis. Restaurant, fast food and retail workers, construction workers, and those who work with our children and assist our aging loved ones would gain new access to insurance.
Oklahomans Agree…
We are sending our tax dollars to other states and getting nothing in return by refusing billions in health care funds. State leaders need to stop playing politics and do the right thing for Oklahomans — expand health coverage!
Contact Your Legislators and tell them to prioritize education funding over tax cuts and tax breaks

Taking a vacation—a momentary breather from the daily grind of your life—has always been an integral aspect of leading a well-rounded lifestyle.
Packing up your bags, exploring new cities, discovering new places and immersing yourself in an entirely new culture are just some of the things that make our lives interesting. In this regard, spontaneous trips always make for the best memories with some of the shapings and defining the kind of traveler we are today.
However, while going anywhere else but home might be considered as somewhat of a comfortable journey, it does not mean that all the places you are looking to go to are worth the trip. When it comes to maximizing your vacation time, your destination matters as much as your itinerary. With this in mind, it is important to consider what you are looking for while you are planning your next trip. You might want to get away from the hustle and bustle of the metropolis and de-stress away from people. However, this is not very likely in an accessible but crowded beach with travelers all year long. Unfortunately, the same can be said about the lauded tourist spots in a particular city that have somehow gained world-recognition through travel articles and blogs or world-acclaim. As a result, you are left with a limited set of options as to where to go—mainly if you are looking to avoid hordes upon hordes of people. However, this is not to say that well-traveled destinations are any less desirable. But if you are looking to visit places that would give you authentic cultural experiences, then it is best to go on holiday at areas that are yet to be affected by mass tourism. Enjoying your very own version of paradise should be somewhere new, unique and unspoiled by the consequences of being slated as a tourist spot.
It is already a given that the city air is already saturated with pollutants and irritants. The air gets pretty thick in any major city. Unfortunately, city dwellers have so long exposed to polluted air that they have long since been accustomed to breathing it in. However, while most of us do not pay much heed about the air we inhale, we definitely should. City air can be full of harmful things that can have long-term detrimental effects on our health.
Getting out of the city is an excellent way to give your lungs a break from the contaminated air of the town. You can feel the pleasant change the moment you step out into the verdant greens and away from the tall skyscrapers of the city. Trust us when we say that your lungs will soon thank you.
Destinations saturated with tourists month after month, year after year will consequently have locals who are wary of seeing them pollute and damage the beloved place they call home. However, the case is very different from off-the-beaten paths as these people rarely see tourists come by their location. As a result, your presence would receive a warm welcome and enthusiastic reception. These locals would often feel excited and proud which means they would be more inclined to show you around and showcase their peaceful way of life. In this regard, you would be able to see these locals for who they are and forge a deeper connection.
You will have a more authentic travel experience wherein you can get to immerse yourself into their culture. Consequently, you would not be dining in lonely restaurants but rather, be invited into homes for meals and the like. An integral aspect of travel is learning about the inhabitants of the area as it gives your excursion so much more vibrancy and meaning. Getting to places before anyone else means you will find it easier to connect with these people and have more authentic travel experience.
Vacations are meant to give us a momentary breather—a respite from our daily routine. It is only very rarely that we go on holiday to challenge ourselves as we would mostly prefer to relax, be pampered and have all the facilities worthy of an excellent vacation. However, a little challenge here and there is essential to growth and would also make for a rewarding travel experience.
The further you are from familiar trails, the more you will be tested in ways you cannot even imagine. Challenges such as communication barriers, being constrained to eat strange foods and an apparent lack of transportation (and thus compelling you to walk) will be just some of the things you will experience. Traveling uncharted paths would often encourage you to break out of your shell and dip a toe out of your comfort zone.
As a result, you would be able to take a deeper plunge into a community's culture and experience things you never thought you would. For this reason, seeing unfamiliar places has always been a welcome option for intrepid travelers who wish to experience something new as not only would it bolster their courage to explore the unknown, but it challenges them as well.
Where the air is clean, and the land is fertile, the food is fresh. Sure, there might be a myriad of new markets within proximity of the city, but none of them have offerings as tremendous and as bright as the ones you will find in the outskirts. No, we are not talking about food items and wares that are sold but rather, taking food straight from the source—which is as fresh as you can get.
Where else can you experience the overwhelming joy of picking your fruit and catching your fish but in places that compel you to do so? In incredibly remote areas, you will be constrained to find your food as it is scarce that you would see any shops and eateries. And if you are lucky enough to have befriended a local, they might even show you the way to do it.
Typically, travel means leaving whatever is familiar to you behind and experience something new and unknown. Unfortunately, this cannot be done unless we will find ourselves to explore uncharted paths and unfamiliar places. In this regard, we must make an effort to point our directions away from the ordinary and find ourselves further from the ties that connect us to home. The further away you are, the less likely you would be able to use your electronics. More often than not, there will be little to no cell reception in these places which would constrain you to unplug and disconnect for a while.
With that, you will be able to be in the moment and truly enjoy your travel experiences. To some, you might have fallen off the globe, but when you do reemerge, it would be with some of the best travel memories you have ever had in life.
Favorite tourist spots are great but as they are so saturated with people, getting the beach all to yourself will be quite the challenge. Traveling to remote and unheard of places allows you to experience the site in its entirety without the presence of other people.
In this regard, you do not have to worry about being too loud or inconveniencing any of your neighbors and be as you are. Some of these places you can have all to yourself that if you ever wish to skinny dip, this might be your chance to do so.
You would not have, and you can spend more time enjoying your stay. You have more time to explore new places and do things as you please rather than be concerned about where the hordes of people are going and if the area you are going to will be pack.
Haduan Falls is perfect for individuals who love a bit of trek before reaching their destination. Located in Barangay Marcos, the majestic falls is only accessible through passing the 120-meter hanging bridge which means those who have a fear of heights will have to conquer that phobia. Located at the other side of the bridge is an Aeta community which you need to pass through to get to Haduan Falls.
Before reaching the falls, you will see a collection of natural formations that are. Some of these formations are water streams, riverside and boulders and a series of rock formations. However, once you get there, be prepared to have your breath taken away by the falls as it is not your typical kind of waterfalls. Boulders hinder the flow of the water from atop which gives it a unique double flow that catches at the little basins at the ground making for a unique and picturesque destination.
While Mt. Arayat is already a famous destination in Pampanga, many travelers neglect to explore further. Traveling a bit further and onto its foothill, you will then see Gintung Pakpak Eco-Park. This place is perfect for those who wish to get up close and personal with Mother Earth.
Apart from the breathtaking sight to behold, the story of Sinukwan and his daughters is something that would add an element of intrigue to the place. Inside the eco-park, you can find a manmade lake, an amphitheater, gardens and a series of fish ponds. Apart from that, there is a natural spring pool as well, and if you are craving for Kapampangan food, Kabyayan Restaurant is just within the vicinity.
Named after the Aeta village in the area, Nabuklod locates in the hilly portion of Floridablanca. This resort plays host to a myriad of amenities and a series of activities that would surely rival some of the more popular tourist spots in Northern Luzon. Some of the events you and your family can do are to go zip lining, ride the cable car, see breathtaking sceneries from the view decks, take photos at the grotto and maybe relax at the spa. Adventure seekers should go on an ATV ride on the trails that lead to the upland resort. Visitors who wish to camp out may do so as the resort has its very own camping site.
The Sandbox in Alviera, while not exactly an obscure location in the Pampanga province, merits a mention as it's a destination that is unique. The SandBox proves that playgrounds are not just for kids as the 1,800 hectare promises to be the premier destination for thrill seekers, kids, and kids at heart.
This outdoor adventure park is known to be the first giant playground in Central Luzon and has quite a unique selection of facilities that will provide for a series of adventure options for everyone. Among the things you can try is the Adventure Tower which promises to test your agility, flexibility, balance and more importantly, endurance. Additionally, there is a go-kart station within the facility and a Splash Tub with over four different activities to try. Indeed, there is a myriad of things you will inevitably enjoy in the SandBox.
A trip coursing through Adams is reminiscent of the iconic scene in the movie, The Sound of Music where Julie Andrews showcased her vocal prowess while prancing about in the verdant green hills. Indeed, Adams is like the sweet and melodic prelude to an obscure song. It builds up as you see rice paddies, springs both big and small and finally climaxes with the warm reception of the locals. Adams is mostly known for the Bugnay wine which is light, sweet and fruity and was a government project to provide income to the locals.
The place got its moniker after the first settlers of the area thought it was the "Garden of Eden." It was initially called Adams Garden before shortened to Adams.
The province of Kalinga is well hidden among the mountains of Siera Madre as the private area is so far-flung. Civilization here actually dates back to centuries ago and is only a part of the vast province Kalinga-Apayao for 17 years. Consequently, it is where people would go to have themselves tattooed by Whang-Od, the oldest Kalinga Tattoo artist.
Whang-Od is said to practice the ancient method of tattooing she had learned during her teen years—an art that would have been lost had she not imparted her knowledge to her grandniece.
You do not get your fair share of swimmable beaches in Metro Manila, so vacationing in one will always be a welcome and exciting delight. However, just like most beaches in the summer, nearby beaches can get packed. If you are looking for a place that is less crowded and more private, you should head to Anguib Beach in Santa Ana, Cagayan. Considered as the "Boracay of the North", Anguib Beach has powdery white sands and calm blue waters sans the crowd.
It is peaceful and relaxing making it the perfect destinations for travelers who wish to be away from the typical gaggle of tourists.
Spelunking enthusiasts should never miss the chance of visiting one of Cagayan's favorite destinations, the Callao Cave. Although this is probably the best-known tourist attraction of the Cagayan Province, it merits a mention as it is unlike most of the spelunking adventures you will ever have in the Philippines. Callao Cave is approximately a thirty-minute drive away from Tuguegarao and is one of the 300 caves in the vicinity of Peñablanca Protected Landscape and Seascape.
It is made up of seven chambers and various formations namely the Column, Skeleton, Chapel, Elephant's Head, Rocket, Lion's and Dog's Head formation and Skeleton. Among all the creations, the Chapel gets featured the most and considered as the focal attraction of the cave. Since then, it is a chamber turned into a cathedral by the locals and produces quite a fetching and dramatic scene considering the skylight illuminates the hall through its opening.
Ilocos Norte is a Northern Luzon province of many delights—one of which is Pagudpud, a coastal town filled with scenic attractions and adventure that will surely keep your itinerary full. On the whole, the place has quite a myriad of things to offer from its alluring coastlines to its remarkable attractions.
However, some of the must-visit places are the Kapurpurawan Rocks, Maira-ira Beach, Patapat Viaduct and Saud Beach.
Kaparkan Falls is enough reason to visit Abra. The sheer size coupled with its unusual appearance makes it not only a visual delight but an exciting destination that merits a mention in every Northern Luzon travel itinerary as well. Kaparkan Falls is characterized by its multi-tiered spring pools/terraces that cascade down the forest which make it different than most waterfalls in the Philippines. Located in Tineg which happens to be the northernmost town of Abra, getting there are quite a feat and an adventure in itself.
It requires a 4X4 ride along very rough roads that would make for quite an eventful experience. It can take you anywhere from 2-4 hours going to the place coming from Bangued depending on the road conditions.
In this year, experience Philippines and Metro Manila like you have not quite done so before and check out the places you might have overlooked, neglected or just unheard them. You might never know, but your spontaneous summer excursion might turn into one of the most significant travel memories you will ever make.

The NHS deserved better, we all deserved better…
27th June 19th July beckyjo125Leave a comment
A day after the story of his affair with a government aides hits the media, Matt Hancock, The Health Secretary, finally resigns. For me, although allegedly not for his boss, Alexander Boris de Pfeffel Johnson, this is beyond doubt the only correct decision to have made. Why? Because so many deserved so much better than Hancock.
Firstly there is the NHS, our NHS, the epitome of a national treasure, even before covid-19 overtook our lives. They surely deserve a more fitting figure-head.
In 2017, The King's Fund in a publication, 'What do the public think about the NHS?' marking the 70th birthday of Bevan's formation of a national health service, found unwavering support the system. At this time, 4 in 5 of us had, consistently held the view that 'the NHS is crucial to British society and we must do everything we can to maintain it'. And throughout the pandemic, respect, gratitude and sheer love for the heroic efforts of our exhausted doctors, nurses and carers has known few limits.
So when the call came to 'save lives and protect the NHS' is could not have been a more important one. People did make heartbreaking decisions and NHS staff did live and work through horrific times to support them. So Hancock's breach of the very covid regulations he exhorted us to follow, is an immense and shocking betrayal. Of equal gravitas, moving forward, is the reality that he would have had absolutely zero credibility in promoting further health care messages and any necessary restrictions and this, at it worst, could endanger lives and threaten our beloved health service. It was just not good enough for our NHS; it was completely untenable for him to continue.
Secondly there are the volunteers who have supported the vaccine roll out. On Saturday morning, I munch my bran flakes watching the BBC news report from a Vaccine Drop-(£in Centre in York, made possible by an enthusiastic set of volunteers. Ten of thousands have responded to the call to 'Get the Jabs Done', given their time freely and braved the elements to push forward a Vaccination Programme, in whose glory Hancock was only too eager to bask and boast. And an amazing programme is has been.
So, how galling for them to hear that, as they shivered in the rain at a local sports centre, Hancock's favourite university pal, was snugly housed in the Department of Health on a £1000 a day job as an 'aide'. No-one seems able to articulate why she was there, nor what the salary covered. Was our former Health Secretary just looking to improve his kissing technique? If so, Louise Rennison's hilarious 'Angus, Thongs and Perfect Snogging' is now on Amazon from £0.99, and would have left a few more pounds in the coffers! But seriously, if this aide has had some impact on the pandemic or national health-care, can we know what it is? Surely our wonderful army of unpaid volunteers deserve this at the very least.
Thirdly there is the public at large. Don't we just deserve better people to lead us? Is it too much to ask that we can respect and look up to those that we vote into the positions of highest power and privilege, as opposed to watching toe-curling videos of them smooching around their offices, like teenagers behind the bike-sheds? We hear that the government agenda is about 're-building better'. Please can this start with some professional development on leadership and standards for the Cabinet? Those who make decisions always need ethical frameworks to work within. For our MPs, I understand that this is the 'Ministerial Code' and that technically Matt Hancock did not break this. But, for goodness sake Matt, to quote your own guidance, it is not just about technicalities at times like this,
"People need to not just follow the letter of the rules but follow the spirit as well and play their part…"
Matt Hancock January 2021
Finally, there is his family. Now I am not here to pass any judgement on the state of anyone's marriage but, the fact remains that his wife and children have had to see all the images, comments and memes as well. Whatever they decide to do,they will need time to communicate, listen, repair and heal. And surely from Day One, of this mess Hancock should have gone to spend time with his children rather than spending another minute trying to hang onto his, and I quote his boss here, 'totally f***ing useless' attempts to run our Health Service. They just deserve so much better…

Earlier this month, the Polisario sought the help of an Algerian general to end tensions between two influential tribes in the Tindouf camps. On Tuesday, Brahim Ghali announced that he appointed two «officials» from the Teknas tribe.
In February 2017, a retired Algerian general played the role of a mediator between Brahim Ghali and Ould El Bouhali. Two years later, another Algerian general is tasked with the same mission.
El Othmani's government seems hardly concerned with the fate of the 19 Saharawis arrested by the Polisario militias, waiting to get enough information about their nationalities. On the other hand, the Polisario is rather doubtful. The Chioukh of the tribes believe that the arrest of these alleged smugglers was not a very smart move.

Q: Autofac IComponentContext - resolving databse instance using entity framework I have UI and windows service application which access the same database, but I noticed recently that when I push some object to the database using UI, the windows service simply doesn't see them. The way I'm accessing the database is the same in both cases, using Autofac IComponentContext:
IEntitiesDb db = _componentContext.Resolve<IEntitiesDb>();

Furthermore, sometimes, even inside the windows service, when one class reads the data and passes a list of objects to the another class (where I again resolve IEntitiesDb instance) that manages them and saves the changes into database, the first one won't be aware of these changes next time it is called.

Q: "Error: unbound module" in OCaml Here's a simple example of using the library Cohttp:
open Lwt
open Cohttp
open Cohttp_lwt_unix

let body =
  Client.get (Uri.of_string "http://www.reddit.com/") >>= fun (resp, body) ->
  let code = resp |> Response.status |> Code.code_of_status in
  Printf.printf "Response code: %d\n" code;
  Printf.printf "Headers: %s\n" (resp |> Response.headers |> Header.to_string);
  body |> Cohttp_lwt.Body.to_string >|= fun body ->
  Printf.printf "Body of length: %d\n" (String.length body);
  body

let () =
  let body = Lwt_main.run body in
  print_endline ("Received body\n" ^ body)

I'm trying to compile it
 ocaml my_test1.ml

Error:

Error: Unbound module Lwt

How to actually include/require the module Lwt into my app?
update
Also:
$ ocamlbuild
bash: ocamlbuild: command not found

But:
$ opam install ocamlbuild
[NOTE] Package ocamlbuild is already installed (current version is
       0.12.0).

And
$ opam install ocamlfind
[NOTE] Package ocamlfind is already installed (current version is
       1.7.3-1).

And
$ ocamlfind
bash: ocamlfind: command not found

Where are ocamlfind and ocamlbuild located?
update2
$ ocamlfind ocamlc -package lwt -c my_test1.ml
 File "my_test1.ml", line 2, characters 5-11:
 Error: Unbound module Cohttp

A: You have several options depending on your needs.
1) If you want to create a full project for your binary I recommend looking at jbuilder. Here is a very nice guide that explains the environment/project configuration step-by-step: OCaml for the impatient.
2) Another option is to compile the binary directly as you were trying to do:
ocamlbuild -pkg lwt -pkg cohttp-lwt-unix my_test1.native

Note that you need to have a file named my_test1.ml to generate the requested my_test1.native.
3) And finally for quick scripts I find it handy to be able to ask the OCaml interpreter to load the dependencies directly in the source file. Just add the following to the beginning of your file:
#use "topfind";;
#require "lwt";;
#require "cohttp-lwt-unix";;

And then run ocaml my_test1.ml.

Hope this helps! :)
Also looking at the command not found errors you are getting I can suggest to make sure your environment is correctly configured. The Real World OCaml book has a wiki page for that: https://github.com/realworldocaml/book/wiki/Installation-Instructions

A: Try to compile it like this ...
ocamlfind ocamlopt -o my_test \
   -linkpkg \
   -package lwt,cohttp,cohttp-lwt-unix \
   -thread
    my_test.ml

I am blessed to have the team I am working with in the film 'Bheed': Anubhav Sinha
Thu 28 Oct 2021, 11:54:14
Mumbai: Actor Bhumi Pednekar has been cast in filmmaker Anubhav Sinha's upcoming sociopolitical drama "Bheed", co-starring Rajkummar Rao.
The film will be jointly produced by Sinha and Bhushan Kumar, who previously backed the filmmaker's "Thappad".
Sinha, known for films like "Mulk" and "Article 15", said Pednekar fit the bill for "Bheed" as she is an assured actor and a woman with a mind of her own.
"That's the quality this character needs to have. I couldn't have asked for a better cast. These are performers who not only shine every time they are on screen; they elevate the written word to create magic on screen. I am blessed to have the team I am working with," the director said in a statement.
Pednekar, star of films like "Saand Ki Aankh" and "Dolly Kitty Aur Woh Chamakte Sitare", said she is honoured to team up with Sinha for the project.
"He shares my value system in believing that movies have the power to shift mindsets. As artists, the responsibility of telling such stories lies with us. Same goes for Bhushan Kumar who allows his writers, directors and actors to be gutsy, giving them the confidence like being the inspired producer he is. This is a crackling subject and I can't wait to get on to the journey of this film," the 32-year-old actor said.
The sociopolitical drama will be shot across Lucknow, where Sinha recently conducted an elaborate recce.
Kumar, who is backing the film through his production house T-Series, said he is extremely proud of "Bheed" and the subject it tackles.
"Anubhav Sinha's process of working is so effortless that I couldn't have asked for a better partner at work. 'Bheed' is another one of those projects I am super proud of. It's a hard hitting story and he has brought on board exemplary actors. Bhumi is a fantastic performer and there couldn't have been a better choice for the role," he said.
The film is expected to go on floors in November.

Brian Williams opens NBC coverage by suggesting tonight's a gut check for Obama–not Romney. Expectations creeping back up.
* Candidates seem to have agreed to switch tie color scheme.
* First-time voter sends "jobs" question right into Romney's wheelhouse, though presumably BHO will mention efforts to reduce indebtedness.
* Mitt again prepped w/ Real Person story and Massachusetts factoid. Goes on offensive with weak point, college affordability. Then he does "help's on the way" number.
* Obama doing the requisite mix of first-term accomplishments, second-term aspirations, and side-swiping Mitt.
* First Crowley follow-up to Mitt: long-term unemployed. Gives him chance to just repeat bashing of Obama on general economic conditions, then touting five-point plan. "Took bankrupt" weird phrasing.
* Crowley doesn't give Romney rebuttal time. Contrast from first debate.
* Blunt gas price question for Obama, classic low-information voter beef. Should have given brief answer and then expanded. Substance pretty strong.
* Romney does dirty-hippies-obstructing-energy-exploration number. Nice image of coal workers putting grimy hands on Mitt and begging for help. Remembered Keystone XL pipeline at last moment.
* Obama challenges Mitt's veracity a second time. "What I've tried to do is to be consistent." Think we'll hear that some more. Not a single Obama reference to environmental impact of coal, oil, etc.
* Mitt doing his Biden imitation.
* Man, the fossil fuel vote must be really big for Mitt.
* Mitt just set up big problem for himself if he wins by saying energy prices test of energy policies.
* Don't know if it worked, but "sure, you can have low gas prices if you kill the economy" is cool attack line for Obama.
* Obama knows that Romney opposition to wind energy credit could be crucial in Iowa.
* Mitt wasting time he secured overriding Crowley.
* Mitt using exact same lines from first debate on "middle-class being crushed" bit. Does good job of laying out phantasmagorical version of tax plan. Crowley letting him go very long.
* Nice Obama reference to middle-class pain prior to Great Recession. Finally! A reference to Republicans in Congress! And then a reference to Romney's own taxes. And a reference to Mitt's primary promises.
* Very conspicuous Mitt reference to employment for women.
* Crowley cuts off Romney citation of "studies," and tries to ask about Romney's priorities if tax plan doesn't work. But Mitt retreats to Massachusetts record, and attack line on Obama's broken deficit promises.

A Canada Worth Celebrating
by Jojo Ruba
I recently asked a Christian friend what he was doing for Canada's 150th anniversary. "I don't know if I can celebrate Canada Day this year," he responded. "There is so much going wrong."
I had to nod in agreement. We talked about how Christianity (and Christians), seems constantly under attack in Canada. In Alberta, a Christian school has been told by its school board that it cannot teach the Bible when it is deemed "offensive." In Ontario, Christian parents who refused their six-year-old's request to change their gender, could have their children taken away. A medical doctor told me that Christian medical students are routinely discouraged by their professors from pursuing fields such as gynecology or end-of-life care, because they don't want them objecting to abortion or euthanasia.
Frankly, I've not wanted to celebrate Canada in a while. When I was working for the pro-life group CCBR, we stood on the streets of Ottawa to educate people on abortion during a federal leaders' debate. Each political party was represented there, and spent time chanting against each other. When the Liberal Party supporters saw our pro-life signs, they chanted against the Conservative Party members, "Your friends are over there," pointing at us. In other words, Christians who care about pre-born children are so toxic to our political class that even associating with us, is seen as an insult.
It's hard to celebrate a country that doesn't welcome your contributions, or kills its children.
Perplexingly, some Christians welcome this kind of persecution. I met the president of a Bible college to introduce our ministry to him. He seemed cold when we started and was genuinely surprised that our ministry would talk about things like pornography and transgenderism. I explained to him that apologetics is about bringing practical worldview training to Christians. We want to help equip them to talk about these tough issues because Christians are being ostracized over them. But he was not upset by our loss of influence. He argued the church grows when it is persecuted and he welcomed it.
As I left his college, I was discouraged. Here was a man of influence over the church, who didn't seem to care that our ability to do good is being limited. He didn't seem to understand that our loss of influence, also meant that we weren't able to bring ideas to the culture that benefited everyone. In the past these ideas included free public healthcare for the sick (for good or bad), fighting against slavery and racism, and even education for all.
As I thought about the history of the church, I was further convinced that Bible college president was wrong. There are plenty of historical cases when persecution silenced Christians. Persecution in places like the Middle East or under Communism, are able to wipe out Christianity for an entire generation. There are a few faithful Christians in North Korea for example, and their government policies have potentially led millions to Hell. What the college president didn't realize, was that the church throughout history didn't grow because of the persecution itself. The church grows because of what it does despite persecution. Persecution, gives Christians the impetus to tirelessly proclaim the truthfulness of our faith, regardless of how badly they are mistreated.
We can see this attitude in the way the early church grew, even as thousands were killed and tortured for their faith, many rose to the occasion and stood firm. We can see it today in the work of Middle East Christians, who feed the hungry Muslim community that kills them. We see North Korean Christians who are grateful to God even in poverty, while praying for believers in the West not to be distracted by their wealth.
This kind of faithfulness is also true about many of the heroes who built Canada. Over the last 150 years, countless Christians have prayed, fought, sacrificed, and stood on guard for Canada. Here are just a few examples:
Shahwundais (Courtesy of Toronto Public Library)
John Sunday, or Shah-wun-dais, meaning "sultry heat," was a Mississauga (Ojibwa) chief and Methodist missionary (1795 to Dec. 14, 1875). This hardened warrior, a veteran of the War of 1812, only knew 3 words of English before his conversion to Christianity: "pint," "quart," and "whisky." After he joined the Methodists in 1826 he immediately stopped drinking and won back his self-respect, and the respect of his tribe. An eloquent speaker in Ojibwa, he was a travelling missionary in the Lake Superior region, and later in 1836 was ordained a regular minister. Elected chief of his band, the Ojibwa of the Belleville and Kingston area, he presented their land claims to the government of Upper Canada. After his return from a missionary tour of Britain in 1837 he served for 20 years at missions in Canada. Among his Methodist brethren Shah-wun-dais was in constant demand as a speaker at church gatherings.
George Brown (Source: Library and Archives Canada)
George Brown, the former leader of the Liberal Party of Canada and founder of the Globe newspaper (which later became the Globe and Mail), was a devout Christian who helped start the Presbyterian church of Canada in 1875. Lord Monck, governor-general in the Confederation years, termed Brown "the man whose conduct in 1864 had rendered the project of union [of the British North American colonies], feasible."
Egerton Ryerson (Source: Wikipedia)
Egerton Ryerson shifted from Methodist minister to civil servant and established a system of public education in Ontario that became a model for other English-speaking provinces. He is still known as the father of public education in Ontario. Ryerson University is named after him. By the age of forty-one, he had served as a revivalist preacher, acted as the chief debater for the Methodists, learned five languages, been the editor of a prominent newspaper, received an honorary doctorate, and been appointed the superintendent of education for Upper Canada. Ryerson believed that his primary task was 'to make men Christians—Christians in heart and life, in temper, word and work.'
Monica Storrs, "God's Galloping Girl" (Courtesy of the Fort St. John North Peace Museum)
Monica Melanie Storrs was a British-born Canadian pioneer and Anglican missionary. Monica, at two years of age, developed a medical condition which left her unable to walk for ten years. Not physically capable of attending school during this time, her parents educated her themselves. She was later educated in London. After her parents died, Storrs arrived in Fort St John, BC as the Great Depression began. She was the first missionary to teach Sunday school and take regular Christian services. Although intending to work for one year, she stayed as missionary for more than 21 years in Peace River County, British Columbia. She was nicknamed 'God's Galloping Girl' for her marathon rides in all weathers and over rough terrain, to visit remote farm families and promote their welfare. Storrs and the other workers were all women, and sometimes are regarded as feminist pioneers. She continued her work until 1967, when she suffered a stroke and died.
Former Lt. Governor of British Columbia, David Lam. (Courtesy of the Office of the Lieutenant Governor of British Columbia)
David See-Chai Lam, a devout Baptist, was a Hong Kong-born businessman/philanthropist who served as British Columbia's lieutenant-governor from 1988-1995. He said of his appointment, "I felt intimidated because English is my second language and I am not a native of Canada. Finally, after discussing the invitation with my pastor, I said 'yes.' I decided that if God wanted me in the role of lieutenant-governor, I would do it for his glory and be used by him (Decision Magazine, January 1992)."
As Canada becomes a darker place for faith, we can't forget that God's people have always served this nation faithfully. This is our nation, too. Regardless of where others want to take it, they can't escape the powerful contributions of Canadians who loved God, and wanted to serve Him by building this nation. Rather than fearing the growing persecution of the church, we can instead embrace these days of hardship as further opportunities for us to share the light of the gospel to all Canadians. History may not remember all the trite and hurtful ways we are treated, but it can remember that for 150 years, Christians have faithfully prayed for God to keep our land glorious and free, and that God has constantly answered this prayer and prospered us. This Canada Day, it's our turn to celebrate the simple truth that our brothers and sisters who've gone before us knew, that regardless of what happens, God still has dominion over our nation, from sea to sea to sea.

Aurélien Noël
Who was Aurélien Noël?
Aurélien Noël was a Liberal party member of the Canadian House of Commons. He was born in Saint-Ferdinand, Quebec and became a chartered accountant, lawyer, lecturer and professor by career.
He was first elected at the Outremont—Saint-Jean riding in a 29 May 1967 by-election, called when the previous Member of Parliament, Maurice Lamontagne, was appointed to the Senate.
As the 1968 federal election approached, Noël faced some pressure to step aside so that Maurice Sauvé, an area resident, could become the Liberal candidate for the riding, which was then renamed Outremont. However, Noël did not give way to Sauvé and was re-elected to a full term in the 28th Canadian Parliament. Noël's career in Parliament ended when he was replaced as Outremont's Liberal party candidate by Marc Lalonde for the 1972 election. Noël did not participate in another federal election since. He died on 16 December 1991.

Dr. Henry Fenichel: On Survival, Science, and Fate
At the age of eight, Henry Fenichel, a child survivor of the Holocaust, met Dr. Chaim Weizmann. The young boy would go on to become an accomplished physicist, a visiting scientist at the Weizmann Institute, and the co-author of a biography of the Institute's first scientific director.
Machine Learning IDs Blood-Cancer Cells Earlier Than Ever
Israel21C reports on a new Weizmann technique that profiles the genetic makeup of cancerous cells. The discovery could help blood cancer patients receive earlier and more precise treatment and prevent relapse.
How Does a Helpful Substance Like Cholesterol Turn Deadly?
Why is "bad" cholesterol bad for us? As Israel21C reports, Weizmann scientists sought to find out – and discovered that cholesterol transforms into "killer" crystals.
Could This be the Fountain of Youth?
A drug that helps the immune system clear away old cells could restore youthfulness, according to a new study. The research suggests it may be possible to reverse the ageing process and could potentially pave the way for anti-ageing treatments that actually work. Researchers at the Weizmann Institute of Science in Israel investigated the way the immune system is involved in clearing away old, senescent (or, ageing) cells that are not completely dead but are irreparably damaged and barely functioning.
The Immune System's Fountain of Youth
Drug treatment eliminates senescent cells from tissues of old mice. The blue staining shows senescent cells in lung and liver tissue. The amount of the staining is significantly reduced following the drug treatment
If only we could keep our bodies young, healthy, and energetic, even as we attain the wisdom of our years. New research at the Weizmann Institute of Science suggests this dream could be at least partly obtainable in the future. The results of this research, led by Prof. Valery Krizhanovsky and Dr. Yossi Ovadya in the Department of Molecular Cell Biology, were recently published in Nature Communications.
How Heat and Salt May Contribute to Multiple Sclerosis

Worldwide, about 3 million people are afflicted by multiple sclerosis (MS), an incurable autoimmune disease in which the immune system attacks the fatty membrane (myelin sheath) that insulates the long extensions of nerve cells.
Damaged myelin prevents nerves from communicating with the brain properly, causing symptoms such as blurred vision, difficulty in walking, dizziness and muscular weakness.
CT for Clouds: A Fleet of Micro-Satellites Will See Into the Smallest Clouds
Ten satellites, each around the size of a shoebox, are slated in a few years to enter orbit and begin filling in some gaping holes in our understanding of clouds and their role in climate. Inspired by medical CT (computed tomography), which observes and maps patients' interiors, the designers are creating a system that will reveal detailed images of clouds' external and internal 3D structures and properties. By probing small cloud fields that are generally missed by today's remote-sensing technologies, the mission may resolve some major uncertainties that limit current atmospheric modelling and climate prediction.

These days, all I want to do is be outside... preferably next to a body of water. Which is why, after a long day at work, my favorite thing to do is bike over to the Williamsburg waterfront with a bottle of rosé to drink, a blanket to lounge on, and a friend or two in tow. Cause what better way to end the day than with the city's skyline in the distance and the summer breeze blowing through your hair? Perfect the moment with an off-the-shoulder top to show off your tan, some comfortable, fashion-forward lace-up wedges and a pair of classic denim cutoffs, and you've got yourself a surefire recipe for stylish summer relaxation.

That was all intended," african shirts she said, before adding that in "The Fallen Kingdom," when Claire's given the chance to go back to Isla Nublar, "of course she's going to wear boots."Howard also weighed in on another element of Claire's outfit from the first "Jurassic World" that caught fans' attention, with some wondering whether the scene where Claire ties her shirt and says, "It means I'm ready to go" was an homage to Laura Dern's character in "Jurassic Park."Just noticed that in Jurassic World when Bryce Dallas Howard rolls up her sleeves and ties her shirt at the bottom to say "I'm ready", she's wearing it the same way Laura Dern did in Jurassic Park.

"Stations of the Crossing" takes real stories of harrowing passages across the southern border of the United States and retells them using images reminiscent of religious iconography of the same title.
Drawing from real accounts, Luceo has created a series of images and cinemagraphs telling the stories of immigrant crossings into the United States in a manner that pays homage to the religious iconography of the Stations of the Cross. The images and cinemagraphs were produced in the desert in southwest United States using stand-in actors to play the role of real immigrants. The stories were selected from among those offered by Colorado-based immigrants' rights and advocacy organizations, highlighting the superlative challenges of trekking through the desert to reach the United States.
The images subtly focus on human rights issues associated with the crossing. Current US policy intentionally pushes immigration into the vast, treacherous interior deserts in a manner that costs hundreds of lives annually.
All images and cinemagraphs were art directed in a manner consistent with religious paintings and iconography of a Mexican and southwest aesthetic.
Founded in 2007, Luceo is a creative agency specializing in story-based advocacy and strategic media production.


The purpose of Form 990 is to provide financial transparency so that the public as well as the government can see a clear picture of the organization's activities and administration. As such, it's a challenging report but also one that offers nonprofits an opportunity to demonstrate the social benefit they provide.
Part I: Summary – The summary includes reporting of governance and unrelated business income, if any, along with a year-over-year comparison of revenues, expenses, assets, liabilities and net assets.
Part III: Statement of Program Service Accomplishments – This is the perfect place to tell compelling stories that illustrate the value of the organization's programs. Including supplemental schedules along with big-picture program descriptions allows nonprofits to provide robust information about their accomplishments and clearly illustrate how those programs change lives.
Part VI: Governance, Management and Disclosure – This section allows nonprofits to communicate the best practice policies and procedures they employ to ensure good governance. How does the organization avoid conflicts of interest, determine compensation and treat whistleblowers? A thorough presentation here promotes public confidence that the organization is managed ethically and transparently.
Part IX: Statement of Functional Expenses – A relatively new requirement, the statement of functional expenses details the organization's natural classification of expenses by program, general, administrative and fundraising. The percentage of expenditures in these areas helps public watchdog groups, donors and grantors assess nonprofits' relative efficiency in pursuing a mission.
Part XII: Financial Statements and Reporting – Most readers don't want to delve into the details of financial reporting. Some do, however, and many want to verify that financial metrics are in line with nonprofit best practices. This section also affirms that the organization has an independent audit and a properly appointed audit committee.
Organizational footnotes and supplemental schedules can also communicate details that help readers understand the challenges nonprofits face and the value of the work they perform. Think about questions that frequently arise; what would your audience like to see? These addenda should provide all relevant information, but nonprofits must be wary of information overload. If readers feel deluged, they'll likely tune out and the message will be lost.
Having the executive committee review Form 990 prior to filing enhances existing policy and helps keep everyone on the same page. Once the form is completed and reviewed, don't just file and forget it! Continue to review the qualitative information about the organization's mission and key programs annually, as this tells your story to the public.
Form 990 requires a significant investment of time and effort. That's okay, though, because the end result not only ensures compliance with IRS regulations, but also serves as a powerful illustration of everything that makes your organization so valuable in your community. Turn to the nonprofit specialists at HBP for help preparing a complete and effective Form 990 that delivers maximum benefit to your organization.

In 2006 - after 15 ground-breaking years topping charts, winning Grammys, and earning acclaim as one-half of legendary electronic partnership Deep Dish - Dubfire returned to his roots: a diverse foundation spanning punk, industrial/new wave, jazz, dub, hip-hop, house and techno. "I Feel Speed," his first solo release, is a remake of the classic Love and Rockets track with Dubfire himself on vocals. It marked a musical crossroads in his passage towards a deeper and darker sound. As Dubfire's productions delved into techno's moodier, sonically edgy dimensions, critics and fans alike celebrated the new direction with admiration and enthusiasm.
An avalanche of accolades made tracks like "Roadkill" and "RibCage" instant techno classics upon release. Covers on Raveline, DJ Magazine and countless other respected music journals; an invitation to mix the covermount CD for Mixmag and DJ; an Essential Mix for the UK's Radio One; and glowing write-ups from Beatportal and Resident Advisor are just a small taste of the universal acclaim and rave reception. A barrage of remixes and productions on respected labels—including Cocoon, Get Physical, Minus, and Rekids—inspired the electronic dance music world, earning Dubfire praise from both DJs and producers as "the DJ's DJ" as well as top to bottom praise from a myriad of online and offline music critics and fans.
By the end of 2007, Dubfire cemented his standing among the most forward-thinking artists with a slew of notable honors, including two Top 10 placements on Resident Advisor's "100 Most Charted Records of 2007" and the DJ Award for "Best Tech House DJ." At the 2008 Beatport Awards, fans singled out Dubfire as both "Best Minimal Artist" and "Best Techno Artist" - the latter a prized honor he would earn once again in 2009. Other celebrated industry nods in 2008 include the IDJ "Player of the Year" Award and "Best Remix" awards - for the dark anthem "Grindhouse [Dubfire Terror Planet Mix]" - from both Groove Magazine and Raveline Magazine. Dubfire also graced Raveline Magazine's "Top 10 International DJs" and "Top 10 Producers" polls in 2008.
A thriving production partnership with techno maestro Oliver Huntemann was born in 2008 and continues into 2009 with a host of productions sure to bring the electronic dance scene to its knees with each release. Initially collaborating with an ocean between them, the duo released two massive dance floor hits: "Diablo" and "Dios." Anticipation for the Fall 2009 release of "Fuego" - the third installment of this powerhouse alliance - is at fever pitch.
As his productions and remixes garnered massive popularity - 8 are listed on Beatport's "Best of DJ Charts, 2009" - Dubfire's goodwill among critics and fans steamrolled into 2009 unabated. "Split the Line" remains one of Beatport's top sellers. "Ten Years Cocoon Ibiza," a two-disc compilation [co-mixed with Loco Dice] met with further rapturous reception, further whetting fans' fervent appetites for the appropriately titled "Rabid," which was released in September.

Mitt Romney says he won't attend planned Republican presidential debate in Portland
By Jeff Mapes | The Oregonian/OregonLive
Mitt Romney won't participate in the n
ationally televised debate planned for Portland
next week, his campaign said Monday.
The announcement, which did not come as a surprise, could well lead to the cancellation of what has been the last scheduled debate of the Republican presidential primary campaign. Debate sponsors said they wanted to review the latest development before making any comment.
Romney's statement didn't leave any wiggle room about his decision not to be in Portland next Monday.
"Gov. Romney will not be participating since he will be in Illinois for its March 20 primary," campaign spokeswoman Andrea Saul said in a statement. "We look forward to campaigning in Oregon before the May 15 primary."
There was no immediate reaction from the campaigns of the three other GOP candidates – former Pennsylvania Sen. Rick Santorum, Texas Rep. Ron Paul and former House Speaker Newt Gingrich.
Oregon Republican Chairman Allen Alley had said last week it's possible the debate could proceed even if Romney dropped out. But it's not clear if the other three would want to proceed on those terms or if the Public Broadcasting Service would still want to devote 90 minutes of prime time to the debate.
"We have to review this development with our partners before making any comment," said Greg Leo, chief of staff of the Oregon Republican Party. The state GOP, Oregon Public Broadcasting and The Washington Times are sponsors of the debate, which was to be carried on public television and National Public Radio.
The sponsors had been aware from the beginning that the debate could get cancelled at the last minute. One of the major reasons that they planned to hold it inside the OPB studios was to avoid the costs of renting a space that might not wind up being used.
The candidates have debated about 20 times during the campaign season and several Republican officials worried that the debates have pushed Romney – the front-runner in the delegate count – to the right and hurt his chances of defeating President Obama in the fall.
Romney also led the move to cancel a March 1 debate in Atlanta that was to be carried on CNN. The candidates last had a formal debate on Feb. 22 in Arizona. In addition, Romney, Santorum and Gingrich also participated in a March 3 forum on Fox News that was moderated by former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee.
The planned Portland debate
attracted the ire of Portland Mayor Sam Adams
, who said in January that he didn't want a presidential debate held in the city. He said the police overtime budget had been exceeded because of the Occupy Portland protests and he didn't want the city to take on the security costs the debate would incur.
Debate sponsors proceeded anyway, and they rebuffed Adams' request to move the event from the OPB studies to a venue closer to the airport that would reduce security costs.
Charles Pope of The Oregonian staff contributed to this report.

There is a series of flexible cotton based adhesive tape and gentle SOT chiropractic that can speedily rehab shoulders without drugs or surgery. SOT divides the physical stress in the body into Category I, Category II, and Category III. Category II stress includes shoulder and arm symptoms.
Most rotator cuff tears are not really a muscle tear, but a partial ligament (connection between the bones) tear. The shoulder muscles try to splint the two bones to pull them together. The muscles were designed to move one bone across another bone. In an emergency your body will hold the bones together with muscles, however, the muscles fatigue and lose some of their elasticity since they are doing an emergency job. Since the muscles are contracted most of the time they have trouble relaxing. The arm loses flexibility and strength due to a combination of bone separation and muscle rigidity. A lot of orthopedic surgeons will tell you the muscle is torn, however, if this were true you would have a rolled up muscle that would look like a small ball on or around your shoulder. Most of the time there is no complete tears of muscle (no ball).
The flexible cotton based adhesive tape and SOT chiropractic can in most cases allow you to regain the flexibility and strength above your head. Most people who have a shoulder injury want it the way it was before they hurt it or better. I have that purpose as a doctor to teach you how to restore full function. Shoulder injury cases that were recently injured can often respond within 15-20 visits with a combination of SOT and Kinesio-taping in a few short weeks.
The shoulder is held in place by ligaments and muscles. The only bony connection is quite small so the shoulder is dependent on many muscles and ligaments in other parts of the body. In SOT chiropractic they give you exercises to restore function to the shoulder by doing Category II strengthening exercises.
The reason the flexible cotton based adhesive tape works so well is that when you move your arm or leg you change the shape of your skin. The joints approximate in a specific position. When the skin is taped in this position it holds the memory of the joint close together and this allows the loose ligament to tighten the connection between the bones that were loose. The bones of the body when approximated will initiate the healing of the sprained ligaments, (connective tissues) between the bones. The bones can then tighten their connection to normal, or near normal. The tape is made of cotton in a wave pattern that has adhesive on it that allows full range of motion when the tape is applied in the correct position. The taping combined with the SOT chiropractic allows you to sit, walk, or lie down with no change in the improved support to your shoulder joints or other joints that have been taped.
Man in early 60's likes to put up wood. He injured his shoulder working with his wood. He was able to move his arm up to 90degrees flexion and abduction. I worked with him with the flexible cotton based adhesive tape and SOT treatment in 6 weeks he had range of motion to 170 degrees flexion and abduction and he was able to put up wood with no discomfort. He came in every 6 weeks for about 1½ years then he over did it and he needed a couple of visits to bring it back with some taping and treatment. He is now again putting up wood in his spare time.
Man in his 90's came in for back pain. In the process of treating the back pain he needed to have the shoulder worked on. He said don't bother it hasn't worked for 2 years. I told him it was necessary to help his back pain. He agreed to have the shoulder worked on with SOT and flexible cotton based adhesive tape and in 3 weeks he was able to raise his arm up about to 160 degrees flexion and abduction with no discomfort prior to treatment he couldn't move his shoulder past 90 degrees. His back pain got better also.
Woman had wrist and hand pain. She had surgery on it however it didn't help with the pain. It still hurt. She was referred by a friend who got help with her back and shoulder pain. She received treatment for about 6 weeks with SOT and flexible cotton based adhesive tape and she was better and her wrist and hand felt fine.
Written by Dr. Leo Powers Dr Powers graduated in 1982 from NWCC. Dr. Powers has worked with diversified adjusting with interest in Applied Kinesiology. He started studying SOT in 1999 and started integrating The stretchable adhesive cotton based tape in to his practice in 2002. Has taught and published at SORSI 3 times for original work. I have been finding it very rewarding and much easier working with shoulder injuries since 2007. When you call just say Rotator Cuff Tear or Frozen Shoulder.

KCSIE Compliance in a Jiffy!
On 1st September 2021, the DfE published new statutory guidance titled 'Keeping children safe in education' in relation to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children. From small primaries to large MATs, everybody working in a school or college must understand their safeguarding responsibilities.
Governing bodies and proprietors are responsible for their school's safeguarding arrangements and must ensure they comply with their duties under legislation. However, many schools still lack an effective process that details which members of staff have or haven't read important documents, leaving them incredibly vulnerable.
The guidance states that 'all staff have a responsibility to provide a safe environment in which children can learn'. It also details the systems that staff need to be aware of to support safeguarding; for instance, policies surrounding child protection and staff behaviour.
Unfortunately, there's broad scope for safeguarding issues to arise within schools and colleges. From spotting the 'early help' signs of abuse (physical, emotional, sexual, or neglectful) to child sexual exploitation, the implications of not knowing how to correctly act can be devastating. Such procedures are in place to maximise the likelihood children receive the right help at the right time to reduce safeguarding risks.
What's changed?
There's been a variety of amends to this guidance from its 2020 predecessor to reflect new information and legislation changes. Notably, there have been updates with regards to the new UKCIS guidance on the sharing of nude and semi-nude images, as well as an additional section on 'whole school and college approach to safeguarding'. This makes the importance of strengthened safeguarding systems crystal clear.
Since September 2019, Ofsted inspectors now always report on whether or not arrangements for safeguarding children and learners are effective. If inspectors deem procedures unsatisfactory and/or identify safeguarding concerns, it's a huge area of concern for the school. The setting would not only be failing its imperative duty to protect children's welfare, but also be increasing the risk of serious allegations about child protection. The safety of staff, children, and parents is endangered, as well as the school's reputation.
What do you need to do to ensure KCSIE compliance?
Research and serious case reviews show the repeated threats of failing to take effective action. Unless all staff read this document from the DfE, schools are not compliant with the law. So, how can schools act with absolute compliance and take 100% responsibility for making sure staff always act in the best interests of the child?
Keeping track of which staff have access to, and read, certain documents is quite the task. You're juggling a variety of job roles that demand the knowledge of differing documents, policies, and procedures. For MATs that employ hundreds of staff, it can be an especially time-consuming task to manually track and record who has read what and when. And that's before you have to chase those that haven't!
How can we help with KCSIE compliance?
Our Compliance Software allows for the easy distribution of the most updated version of important documents to staff, like this latest guidance from the DfE. The cloud-based platform allows users to access the information remotely, eradicating any margin for non-compliance if working off-site.
Whether sending documents to individuals or groups, users have access to stats that detail who has read the document, and when. For those with an 'unread' status, both automated and personal email reminders can be sent at the click of a button, alongside a reading deadline.
It's one thing asking staff to read something, but being able to verify that they actually have is another ball-game. Thanks to our electronic confirmation feature, you're equipped with evidence of who has read what, when, preventing the chance of disputes.
Our digital day and age leaves little excuse for non-compliancy. Unless a robust procedure is in place, there's opportunity for human error, something schools simply cannot afford to risk. Every's solution keeps a log of documents that have been distributed (past and present) which can be used as evidence during audits, proving that you have effectively communicated documents to staff.
After the 18 months we've had, it's time to streamline processes for some much-needed peace of mind.

Poetry in Review.
February 13, 2008 February 13, 2008 mariegauthier
It's a common trope that more people are writing poetry than reading poetry, and even less are writing poetry criticism. Some of the welcome developments have been the expanded prose section in Poetry, and the reinstatement of poetry reviews in Publishers Weekly, which can be vital for library and bookstore sales. And the angel who invested in Parnassus: Poetry in Review saved a crucially unique journal, one devoted exclusively to poetry criticism. Their 30th issue comes out in March!
Online, however, is where poetry reviewing has really come alive. At sites like Galatea Resurrects, and The Constant Critic and countless poetry blogs, you can find critical writings on poetry & poets. And, wonderfully for the poet with a first book, there's Growler.
From their website:
Growler strives to promote debut works of poetry by offering them exposure through review and criticism. Many first books are lauded as winning this prize or that, but what does that mean when almost every first book of poetry has won an award and been selected by a preeminent poet? Growler will provide serious inquiry into the merits of each book that we review, often giving the poets their first critical attention.
Many complain that there are too many poetry books being published, and often more specifically about the proliferation of first book contests. Many have also complained about a lack of serious criticism of contemporary poetry. Growler will take a stab at both issues, addressing one with the other. Criticism can act as a gateway to poetry, advising the general readership as to where they might begin. We hope that this site will act not only as a inroad, but also as a launching pad for the careers of the numerous talented yet under exposed poets who are just beginning to publish. These are the true "emerging writers," whose poems are rising above the waters after years of gestation.

Was here few weeks ago for the first time at Oasis, Ara Damansara for dinner.
This place seems pretty far away and but it the crowd was mostly families during the weekend.
The one we dine on that night was Crazy Crabs. I never heard of it but seems like it's new.
Luckily we make a reservation on that day, or else it's hard to get a table.
It was on weekend and yes family dinner time. You know as usual, human jam.
with a bunch of friends or groups of people together.
As i heard from the Manager there, they only serves big crabs. So no small crabs.
was a bit too much.
- The fish fillings was a bit too little. But overall taste was okay.
- This was actually kapak ( another type of lala ) But i prefer the original type of lala.
The broth was nice i like the taste of chinese wine they add in to blend with it.
- The sauce doesn't make it feel too tempting but the way the fried the taofu was a bit soft.
I almost forgot we also ordered a plate of lamb. That kind of grilled type. It was sooo good.
as it doesn't look appetizing but taste good and meanwhile my hand is dirty from grabbing those crab.
Hahah. In conclusion, it's recommended to go for a try but the price was a bit pricey.
20minute to get back to us.
The service was really really bad. I hope they really improve on that.
