How tourism in Iran blossomed after the nuclear deal – and what the future holds for the fragile industry
In 2016, as an indication of confidence in the renewed harmony between the West and Iran, three of Europe's most prestigious airlines returned to the Middle Eastern country's capital Tehran.
The resumption of direct flights by British Airways, Air France and KLM, from London, Paris and Amsterdam, followed the lifting of a number of sanctions against Iran in the wake of a groundbreaking nuclear deal spearheaded by Barack Obama.
BA said Tehran, which had not been visited by the British flag carrier after 2012, represented an "important destination" for the airline. The blurb on its website says of the city: "Tehran is a bustling metropolis with a large, friendly population. Iran is a beautiful place, and Persians are a welcoming and hospitable people, with an ancient culture and rich heritage that deserves to be explored."
Isfahan is one of the most popular destinations for tourists visiting Iran
The flights did not spawn an interest in travel to the Middle Eastern country, however, but catered to an existing one.
In 2003, Iran welcomed some 300,000 international visitors. This figure rose exponentially as interest in one of the world's most enigmatic and beguiling countries grew. By the fiscal year 2014-15, more than 5 million travellers visited Iran. As relations with the West improved from 2015 to today, the number grew further to 6 million in the year ending March 2017.
"In 2013 we took 40 people to Iran; in 2016 we took more than 600," said Jonny Bealby, founder of tour operator Wild Frontiers.
"Once [Mahmoud] Ahmadinejad was gone and [Hassan] Rouhani was in power – shaking hands with Obama at the UN, orchestrating the talks that would eventually lead to the nuclear deal, generally talking in more conciliatory terms – the perception of Iran changed and suddenly people wanted to travel there."
More and more visitors were witnessing first-hand Tehran's colourful Golestan Palace, the striking architecture of Isfahan and exploring the country's growing number of art galleries and museums. Iran boasts 22 Unesco World Heritage Sites, the 11th most in the world.
Hotel chains, including Melia and Accor, unveiled properties in the Islamic Republic, while UK-based EasyHotel signed an agreement to open 500 rooms in the country. Tour operators who had grown used to taking only a handful of people to the Islamic Republic were now inundated. Bolstered with optimism, the Iranian tourism ministry set a target of welcoming more than 20 million visitors by 2025.
Now, the fledgling industry, which accounts for more than 550,000 jobs, is threatened once again by political ill will. Officials say threats made by President Donald Trump have already impacted the year's tourism numbers, with a 15 per cent fall in arrivals anticipated for 2018.
Trump has until May 12 to decide if he will renew a waiver of sanctions imposed on Iran, retaining positive relations with the country, though it seems clear he will not. A flare-up of tempers in Syria where Iran is all-but fighting a proxy war with Israel is making matters worse.
Iran's tourism industry has experienced a boom period
This week the Foreign Office updated its advice to warn of a "heightened risk of politicised demonstrations targeting Western interests" in the run up to the nuclear deal deadline.
Justin Francis, founder of Responsible Travel, which operates trips to Iran, is confident that the unrest will not put off British travellers from visiting. He says an "imagined hostility towards Westerners simply doesn't exist".
"From a tourism perspective, [Iran] has suffered with its safety image for many years," he said. "However, the type of travellers that go to Iran will already have their very own, strong reason for wishing to visit the country which will most likely be based on its astounding culture.
"These people have a passion and a pull to see the buildings, the arts, the textiles and to experience the warm and wonderful hospitality the country and its people can offer.
"Travellers interested in Iran are those who want to go to places that no one else really visits, and in my opinion that will continue."
David McGuinness, director of Travel the Unknown, however, says he has seen a "pause" in bookings.
"The number of clients from the US booking with us has decreased in the last few months," he says. "Doubts about President Trump's course of action have caused people to hold off on any decision. We expect that pause to continue for the moment while people watch how this develops, and whether Iran will be content with what the EU can offer. Obviously we hope they will find a way to agree."
He says that the country's long-term appeal as a tourist destination depends on how stable relations with the West remain.
"On the other hand, travel to Iran was perfectly safe for many years before the nuclear deal and we do not expect that to change in the near future," he added.

Traditional veganism consists of abstaining from the use of animal products; however, there are also stricter practices some vegans follow that people may consider weird forms of veganism. Of course, these people don't follow their diets because they are weird or alternative. They just have different beliefs as to what is and is not okay or healthy to consume.
People who are on the raw food diet don't eat anything that's been cooked to a temperature higher than 116 degrees. They believe that cooking foods any further than this kills enzymes that are important for optimal health. Instead of eating traditionally cooked foods, raw foodists may use a blender, food dehydrator, or other food preparation techniques. They also eat a lot of uncooked fruits, vegetables, nuts and seeds.
Fruitarians, as people who follow this diet are called, eat only uncooked fruits, nuts and seeds. They will not eat anything that requires them to kill a plant. For example, carrots and lettuce are not permitted on this diet since farmers harvest them and replant them the next year.
A few foods that people consider vegetables that are allowed on this diet are ones that can simply be picked, such as olives and tomatoes. These are sometimes referred to as "vegetable fruits." Fruitarians can also eat sprouting seeds, such as alfalfa sprouts, since they are not technically harvested plants.
Some fruitarians do limit their diets to strictly fruit only. However, this is often just a misconception due to the name of the diet.
People on this diet cook in traditional styles that are said to retain the balance of the yin and the yang. Further rules are available on Webmd.com.
This is the vegan version of the Warrior Diet, which is designed to follow the diet patterns of ancient warriors. Like warriors who had to go to battle during the day, followers of this diet fast in the morning, afternoon and evening, which is known as the under eating period. Then an hour or two before they go to bed they begin the overeating period, where they eat a very large meal until they are satiated.
This diet consists of a lot of water during the first phase, as well as vitamins and tea. The second phase can be vegetables, crackers, soy milk or any other number of vegan dishes. Foods with chemical additives, such as artificial colors or flavors, are not recommended. Although this diet may not seem healthy, many insist that it is a great way to lose body fat.
People who would like to try these diets, whether they consider them weird forms of veganism or not, should always consult a doctor or nutritionist first. If any of these diets are not followed properly they can lead to vitamin deficiencies. Also, people may lose weight too quickly or in an otherwise unhealthy manner. Since part of the goal of changing one's diet should be to feel better, it's imperative not to neglect this step.

BreatheLife campaign welcomes Santa Rosa, the Philippines - BreatheLife2030
Network Updates / Santa Rosa, the Philippines / 2018-08-16
BreatheLife campaign welcomes Santa Rosa, the Philippines:
Fast-growing lakeside city Santa Rosa, second Southeast Asian city to join the campaign, to focus on sustainable transport, energy and urban planning
Santa Rosa, the Philippines
Fast-growing lakeside city Santa Rosa, south of the Philippine capital Manila, is BreatheLife's newest member, and the second Southeast Asian city to join the campaign.
Having transformed in the last 50 years from a largely agricultural municipality to a city of 300,000 whose economic activity centres on the industry and service sectors, Santa Rosa's air pollution reduction efforts are focused on transport, waste management and energy supply.
The city states that its land use planning process is "guided by the policies of enhanced accessibility, ecological sustainability and social responsibility".
Its efforts include improving the state and connectivity of pedestrian and bicycle lanes, enforcing national and local waste management regulations and as well as encouraging waste reduction, diversion and segregation, and promoting the use of renewable energy.
The city uses solar power for streetlights and encourages private developers and households to adopt renewable energy.
It is advocating for the use of electric vehicles, initially in the government fleet, in order to reduce fuel expenses, with the co-benefit of reduced traffic-related emissions.
It's also planning to develop a master plan for bicycle lanes to promote the use of non-motorized and non-fuel intensive transport.
These efforts feed into Santa Rosa's involvement in several international initiatives for air quality and climate change action in the last decade, working on air quality-related projects with organizations including ICLEI, Clean Air Asia, USAID and GIZ.
It is a Building Energy Efficiency Accelerator City, a project coordinated by ICLEI South Asia, which involves the adoption of a mandatory green building code to reduce energy consumption of new and existing buildings and promote the use of renewable energy.
As part of the Asian Cities Climate Resilience Network, Santa Rosa developed a Local Climate Change Action Plan for 2016-2025, which charts a strategic line of actions to reduce greenhouse gases from its baseline in 2010. The City Council adopted it through a resolution and integrated it into the city's 10-year Development Plan.
Santa Rosa is a signatory to the Compact of Mayors under the Global Covenant of Mayors. As part of its commitments to this, the city intends to cut its GHG emissions by 20 per cent on this 2010 baseline by 2020, a goal reiterated in its report to the Carbonn Climate Registry.
Currently, the city does not have air quality targets as routine monitoring shows compliance with the National Ambient Air Quality Guidelines, but it is in the midst of conducting a comprehensive emissions inventory.
"Targets can be set upon completion of the emissions inventory and during the development of our city's Clean Air Action Plan, for which resources have already been allocated," said Santa Rosa Mayor, Danilo Fernandez.
Meanwhile, Santa Rosa is a pilot city in Cities for Clean Air Certification, a voluntary standard developed by Clean Air Asia that includes six actions cities can take to address air quality, including engaging people to take action, consolidating and communicating data and taking direct action on air pollution.

Sound events are known to have an influence on the listener's emotions, but the reason for this influence is less clear. Take for example the sound produced by a gun firing. Does the emotional impact arise from the fact that the listener recognizes that a gun produced the sound (semantic content) or does it arise from the attributes of the sound created by the firing gun? This research explores the relation between the semantic similarity of the sound events and the elicited emotions. Results indicate that the semantic content seems to have a limited role in the conformation of the listener's affective states. However, when the semantic content is matched to specific areas in the Arousal-Valence space or when the source's spatial position is considered, the effect of the semantic content is higher, especially for the cases of medium to low valence and medium to high arousal or when the sound source is at the lateral positions of the listener's head.

Moscow mayor: No more mosques in my city
By Fred Weir | 11/22/2013
No more mosques will be built in Moscow, despite the huge crowds that swamp the city's four public mosques on Muslim holidays, because they are mainly used by temporary workers, Moscow Mayor Sergei Sobyanin has decided.
In an interview with the daily Komsomolskaya Pravdaon Wednesday, Mr. Sobyanin said that Moscow has about two million foreign residents, the vast bulk of them migrant workers from former Soviet Central Asia who are mainly Muslim. The city's economy "could not manage without them," he admitted.
But he insisted that the vast throngs of Muslims who fill Moscow streets and wait, often for many hours, to enter the city's few existing mosques are mostly people who come from outside the city limits and therefore have no right to be catered to.
"Muslim believers who come on religious holidays come from other regions. Between 60 and 70 percent of them are outsiders. We cannot provide for all comers. I think it's not necessary," Sobyanin said.
One new mosque is presently under construction in Moscow, but that's the end of it, he added. "No new building permits will be issued. I think that's enough mosques for Moscow."
Sobyanin devoted much of his interview to slamming illegal immigration, which he has warned in the past is stirring ethnic hatred among the Slavic majority in the city.
In an interview with the independent Ekho Moskvi radio station last February, he warned that problems posed by the influx of outsiders are a threat to Moscow's stability. "Muscovites are becoming irritated by people who speak a different language, have different customs, and display aggressive behavior. This is not a purely ethnic issue, but it is connected with some ethnic characteristics," he said.
His warning became reality last month, when thousands rioted in the Moscow suburb of Biryulyovo over the stabbing of a Russian man by a Muslim from Azerbaijan. Authorities reacted by rounding up over a thousand illegal immigrants and promising to do more to curb the influx.
But critics point out that cracking down on migrant workers does nothing to solve the underlying problem: Moscow's economy desperately needs cheap, unskilled labor, and it's the corruption of local police, businesses, and officials that ensures most outside workers come to the city illegally.
While Moscow has hundreds of Orthodox churches, many of them empty most of the time, there are just four public mosques within the city limits. Under its 1993 constitution, Russia has four founding religions – Christianity, Islam, Buddhism and Judaism – which share equal status under the law. Almost 20 percent of Russia's population are Muslims, mostly concentrated in the north Caucasus and Volga regions, but also heavily and increasingly represented among Moscow's population.
"There are not enough mosques in the city" to serve the Muslim population, says Rushan Abbyasov, chief of staff of Russia's Council of Muftis, the official Muslim clerical body. "There should be at least eight of them."
Experts say Sobyanin is catering to nationalists, who fear that more mosques will only attract more Muslims to Moscow.
"Sobyanin's position is, why should we build mosques for them if they're here illegally?" says Alexei Malashenko, an expert with the Carnegie Center in Moscow.
"But authorities should have thought about this problem long ago and moved to build at least four more mosques in different parts of the city. It's necessary. We are a multinational state. So why do we always act so surprised when 100,000 or more people gather to pray outside one of the few existing mosques on Muslim holidays?"

'Yellowstone' Fans Are Spiraling Over the Mysterious Voice in the New Season 4 Teaser Video
Who could it be? 🕵
By Katie Bowlby
Yellowstone fans are officially in countdown mode! After months of speculation, Paramount Network finally announced the release date for season 4 of the most watched drama on cable, and fans are beside themselves with excitement.
The show will return on November 7 with not one but two brand-new episodes. The announcement was made in a short video posted to the show's official Instagram account on August 19. The video shows patriarch John Dutton (Kevin Costner) bleeding on the side of the road after being shot, as a murder of crows circles ominously. The screen cuts to black, and a voice says, "We're at war, you and me." {Chills!}
Always up for a challenge, the show's loyal fans took to the comments section to speculate on the ever-important question: "Whose voice is that?"
A post shared by Yellowstone (@yellowstone)
The post has garnered nearly 14,000 comments, including some from celebrities. Kevin Costner commented on the post but offered no clues. He simply wrote, "Let's get to work." Costar Hassie Harrison (who plays barrel racer Laramie) said, "Can it be November already?!?! 🔥😍." Actress Angie Harmon chimed in with the words everyone is thinking: "Rip gone kill EREBODY!! 👏👏👏👏," and sportscaster Erin Andrews contributed, "GUYS!!!!!!!! I can't wait!"
But the real debate took place between viewers who couldn't agree on who is speaking in the video. Some were convinced that it's Jamie Dutton (Wes Bentley): "That sounds like Jamie's voice!!!"
Many feel strongly that it's Jamie's biological dad, Garrett Randall (Will Patton). One industrious fan did some research: "It's Jamie's real father's voice. I had to go back and listen to previous episodes to compare. Definitely him." Others agreed: "He's played by Will Patton. Very distinctive voice."
Other viewers pointed to Mo (Moses J. Brings Plenty): "I thought it sounded like Mo, Rainwater's righthand man, but could be wrong."
More fans jumped in with less popular guesses, including Monica's therapist (Martin Sensmeier), Monica's grandfather (Rudy Ramos), or one of the Beck brothers (both of whom died in season 2).
Of course, the more important question might be: "Who is this person talking to?" We're hoping all will be revealed on November 7!

Now that I've got Bento 400 and my contest entry out of the way, I can get started on Halloween themed bentos. Ever since I got this cute postcard from the kids' dentist with little Halloween drawings on it, I've wanted to do some spooky bentos. Keep your eyes here for some great Halloween bento ideas for your kids!
To start, I have a bento with three little quail egg ghosts with sweet potato tombstones. I'll also be doing a product review sponsored by J-List on one of their new Gel-Cool bento boxes. J-List carries several types of Gel Cool boxes, but this particular one is their polar bear one from the Maruyama Zoo. Buying one means money will be directed to protecting polar bears in the wild.
I started this by boiling three quail eggs. I peeled them and cut them in half, putting them tip side down so that my ghosts didn't have pointy heads. I used my mini Carla Craft punches to make the faces from nori and then cut the jagged bottoms. Mr. Pikko said that I should dye them next time and make a Pac-Man bento. Not a bad idea!
I put the rice in first, then some leftover Beef Tofu that Grandma J made. In the upper left corner I put some broccoli, a baby roma tomato sliced in half, sugar snap peas, and a blanched baby carrot cut in half. To put some "dirt" in my rice graveyard I added some Katsuo Mirin furikake.
For the tombstones, I used Okinawan sweet potato. I cut them into rectangles, then cut off a piece of a very fat straw. I cut this piece of straw open so that I could stretch it out and that's what I used to cut the curvy top. I placed little alphabet pasta letters on for the words. As a final touch, I put two leaf pasta on the broccoli.
The bento box is a 250 gram size (400 mL), but the cover, which contains a gel cool pack in it, is rather fat, so I don't know if they took this into account when determining the size. It came with a divider which I quickly lost in my sea of bento box dividers. I'll put together a search party some other time. The lid snaps on from the bottom with two clips on the ends. There is also a smaller 150 gram box available, which might be a better size for my little picky eater on her next field trip.
I ended up putting too much food in and had to cover my little ghosts with plastic wrap before squishing them down with the lid. I stored it in the fridge overnight and took it out just before we left the house. I opened up the box two hours after removal from the fridge and my ghosts, tombstones, and broccoli were all still very cool to the touch. Since Baby Girl would eat lunch at about 3.5 hours past leaving the house, I'd guess that the food would still be slightly cool, but not so cold that you wouldn't like it if you don't like eating cold food. My little 2-hour mark test left me pretty satisfied that her food would be safe to eat without a separate ice pack. J-List says that the box is microwave safe without the lid.
The catch here though, is that you need to have the entire bento cold when you take it out. I tested this out on a box of soba noodles where all I did was freeze the lid and added my ice-chilled noodles and popped the lid on. At the four hour mark, the noodles were not cold at all, maybe even a little warm. Therefore, for the best results, pack your bento in this box the night before and store the entire thing in the fridge, removing it only just as you're leaving the house.
I'm not all that into the box cover design. I wish they'd drawn the outline of the bear's head instead of just putting the face on the cover. The box costs a rather hefty $28.90, so unless you really want to help polar bears and like the cover, I'd look into the other Gel Cool boxes available such as the slightly smaller plain white box ($25.00) or the large two-tier box ($45.00). The two tier box is really pricey, but comes with two 500 mL boxes for a total of 1000 mL, so this might be a great box for a guy, especially since it's white and blue.
I have another piece of cool news! My Miss Octopus bento entry at bentolunch was included in the LiveJournal Anthology! I got the book yesterday and was very excited to see that I'm one of four bento lunches featured in their bento section on page 32!
The book is printed by Blurb, a site where you can self publish photo books and what not. I had thought about doing a coffee table book of my blog photos, but since I could only look at the stats of the book online, I wasn't sure. After getting in this lovely book that LiveJournal was kind enough to give me in exchange for permission to use the photo, I'm definitely going to look into doing that. The print quality is beautiful and the book cover was very nice. You can't see in this photo, but one additional bento not featured inside was used in the little collage of photos.

Is it Safe to Exercise after my Back Surgery?
Many people want to, but have never been given any specific instructions or guidelines to follow regarding what exercises to do after surgery. Some surgeons believe the surgery itself helps correct the problem. Most often than not, the problem was not addressed by the surgery.
The surgery only addresses either a sign or symptom caused by the true problem. Most disc injuries and arthritic conditions develop and progress over a long period of time. Typically, if there is a traumatic event, such as a fall, a motor vehicle accident or job related injury, the body will heal itself over an unspecified period of time.
Addressing these physical limitations, especially after surgery, are paramount to the success of the surgery. For example, if you undergo a lumbar fusion in which two vertebrae are fused together, the vertebrae above and below tend to be the targets of future potential injury.
If the above conditions are not addressed, you run the risk of further injury and possible surgeries. Simple, easy to perform exercises can help eliminate those factors which can lead to further injury. The success of the surgery, in my opinion, is directly related to what happens after the surgery. More importantly, addressing the physical limitations prior to surgery may even eliminate the need for surgery, and if not, it will provide a good foundation for recovery following the surgery.
The first thing you need to do it ask your surgeon, to give you a list of instructions, of the motions that you can and can not do and make sure that they indicate if they are temporally or are they for ever. For example If you have had a Total Hip Replacement there are motions, that you can never do and only your surgeon can tell you what they are based on the type of procedure and the hardware that they used.
Sounds like a simple question but there is are some considerations, Pain level, tolerance to activity, is the surgical site stable…the list of considerations can go on and on so lets imagine we get past all of the physical limitations and now we have to start were we are and how we are.
What is the state of your physical being, to start you need to identify imbalances in your physical being, you must first be assessed or assess your self, looking for muscle imbalances and postural dysfunctions and then a well planned corrective exercise program can be established.
Why look for Postural Dysfunction after surgery?
Postural dysfunctions, take into account the position of your pelvis and the curvature of your spine. The trouble is, if your pelvis is not in the most neutral position you spine will have abnormal curvature and that abnormal curvature is what cause excessive ware and tear on the muscles, joints, ligaments and yes it can also cause the discs to start to bulge.
The postural dysfunctions you have are also a factor in your recovery after surgery, please understand that just because the bulging or herniation part of the disc was removed that does not mean the forces that cause the disc to herniated in the first place have been eliminated, that is not true.
If you do not address your postural dysfunctions those same forces will begin working on other discs in your back and the process will start all over again. That is why back surgeries have such a high failure rate after 5 years.
The surgery very well many have eliminated the irritation that was on the nerve but it sure did not address the root cause of the problem. Please be sure that all measures are taken that the after the surgery your postsurgical pain is addressed as well as your postural dysfunctions.
Is it Safe to do Exercises?
Please understand that the term "back pain exercise" is a misnomer, let me explain, you would not want to exercise your back pain would you? NO, of course not, then you must have mean what exercises should you do to strengthen my back, well guess what that may not be what you need to do to get pain either.
You see regardless of your condition and with in the limitations of your surgery your main focus need to be on getting your body back to a more neutral, more balanced and more stable state in order to insure that the surgery is a success.
What if my Therapist will not Address my Muscle Imbalances?

Az Ikarus 412T az Ikarus 412-es autóbusz alapján készített trolibusztípus. A karosszériákat az Ikarus Karosszéria- és Járműgyár, elektromos berendezéseket pedig a Ganz-Ansaldo, a Kiepe és az Obus gyártotta. Összesen 20 darab készült el belőle, ezek Tallinnban () és Budapesten () álltak forgalomba. 2014-ben a BKV Zrt. két Ikarus 412-es autóbuszát trolibusszá építette át, ezek  412.81GT típusjellel 2016-ban álltak forgalomba.

Története
A 412T trolibuszok elődje az Ikarus 411T típus egyetlen példánya, a későbbi 400-as pályaszámú trolibusz volt. Ezt a járművet az Ikarus 1994-ben készítette el Ikarus–Obus–Kiepe kooperációban. A típust 1995-ben mutatták be, Magyarországon és külföldön (Hannoverben) is egyaránt.

Tallinn
Az észt főváros, Tallinn a 411T-nél egy méterrel hosszabb trolikat rendelt, emiatt a típusjel 412T-re (412.81) módosult. Az öt jármű 1999-ben állt forgalomba a városban, 310–314-es pályaszámon kék-fehér flottaszínben a TTTK Tallinn (később TLT Tallinn) üzemeltetésében. A kocsik 2015-ig közlekedtek a városban, a 311–314-es kocsikat pedig 2015-ben selejtezték.

Budapest
A BKV Rt. trolibuszállománya az ezredforduló idejére jelentősen leromlott, a belvárosi viszonylatokon közlekedő ZiU–9 típusú trolibuszok állapota vállalhatatlanná vált, emiatt elengedhetetlenné vált a régi kocsik cseréje. 2000-ben felmerült a részleges autóbuszüzem bevezetése egyes trolibuszvonalakon Ikarus 412 típusú autóbuszokkal, azonban a Trolibusz Üzemegység és a lakosság tiltakozása miatt erre nem került sor. A megoldást a BKV pályázata jelentette: a vállalat 15 új trolibuszt kívánt vásárolni, a nyertes pedig az IkarusBus–Obus–Kiepe lett a 412T típussal. A trolik 700–714-es pályaszámmal álltak forgalomba 2002 májusában és júliusában. Érdekesség, hogy a 705-ös troli 2003. február 24. és március 28. között Debrecenben tesztjárműként közlekedett 802-es pályaszámmal.

2013-ban jelent meg a hír, hogy a BKV Zrt. két leselejtezett Ikarus 412 típusú autóbuszából, vázfelújítás és teljes átépítés keretei közt, két Ikarus 412GT típusjelű trolibuszt kíván építeni az Ikarus 280T típusú trolik elektromos-berendezéseinek felhasználásával. A már önjáró üzemre is képes járművek 2014-ben készültek el, majd 2016-ban vette állományba a trolikat a BKV 720-as és 721-es pályaszámon. A 720-as trolit hosszú ideje húzódó üzemképtelenség után, 2019 júliusában a 705-ös trolival ideiglenesen törölték az állományból. A 705-ös trolit 2021 novemberében újra állományba vették, a 704-es trolit végleg törölték. 2022 áprilisában a 708-as troli egy balesetben olyan súlyosan megrongálódott, hogy selejtezni kellett.

Q: Object value is changed before setting it in Unreal Engine 4.27.2 I'm verifying the value of a Text object in Unreal then setting the value after the branch node. However the value is changed before. I managed to isolate the issue and reproduce the bug in that small blueprint (The execution before is just the BeginPlay event attaching the debug interface then leading up here):

The results in the Direction Trace output (Small function that displays the value requested) is always "Up" and the Actual Content shows "New Value".
However, Direction will be "Down" and Actual Content will show the correct original value ("Hazard 3") if I remove the last node that sets "Short Difficulty Name".
Furthermore, if I compare the original value with a random integer like so:

Direction will show "Down" while "Actual Content" still shows "New Value"
I really don't get it, tried copying the value of the Text instead in case it was a pointer issue, reading online if the Branch node or pure functions had a delay, comparing Text instead of String..

A: I ended up fixing the issue by adding a 0.0001s delay after reading variable and before writing anything, then the values were correct.

Gauchos top UCSD in return to Campus Pool
Zach Shenkin
SANTA BARBARA, Calif. - The UC Santa Barbara men's and women's swim teams both took down MPSF opponent UC San Diego on Saturday afternoon at Campus Pool. The men (3-0, 2-0) won by a score of 145 to 117, while the women (2-1, 2-0) finished at 143.5 to 113.5.
Head Coach Matt Macedo was proud of his teams' performance in the second home meet of the season for the men, and the first for the women. "Today's meet was a great win and our final rehearsal for our winter invite in a couple weeks. The women were led by Emily Boggess and Zoe Cosgrove," said Macedo. "It was great to have our women's captain Heaven Quintana back after battling an injury this fall. She had a big split on the medley relay along with a win in the 100 Breaststroke. On the men's side, Dominic Falcon, Kian Brouwer, Zach Shenkin, and Joe Lastelic all had big wins."
To start the day, in the 200 Medley Relay, the women's "A" team took first place with a time of 1:42.00 and the "C" team took third with a time of 1:45.03. The men's "A" team won first (1:30.61) and the "B" team took third (1:33.76). In the final event of the day, the 200 Free Relay, the men's "A" team won first with a time of 1:21.83, and the "B" team won third, finishing in 1:25.46.
Falcon had a standout performance, taking first in the 500 Free (4:33.64) and also the 200 IM (1:52.71), the second of which was a particularly important race, as the teams were separated by only 10 points going into the second to last men's race of the day.
The senior Lastelic also took home a first-place win in the 1650 Free (15:50.85).
Macedo praised both Lastelic and Falcon, saying "Falcon had two big wins for us and Lastelic has been sick for most of the week so to see him swim so well in the 1650 is a credit to his hard work this fall."
As Macedo mentioned, Brouwer also had a strong showing, with a first-place finish in the 100 Free (45.18), second place in the 100 Fly (49.57), and third place in the 200 Free (1:40.19).
Sophomores Shenkin and Dan Marella impressed, as Shenkin touched first in the 200 Fly (1:50.66) and Marella finished second in both the 200 Breast (2:03.24) and 200 IM (1:53.52).
Jolen Griffin, Marcello Quarante, and Justin Nguyen each had second and third place wins.
Christian Martinez finished second in the 50 Free (20.62), and Doug Nogueira and Tony Moore each added third place wins.
On the women's side, Boggess and Cosgrove dominated, combining for five first place finishes. Boggess won the 1650 Free (16:48.69), 200 Free (1:49.87), and 500 Free (4:55.08), and Cosgrove touched the wall first in the 100 and 200 Back (54.81 and 1:58.49).
The senior Quintana finished first in the 100 Breast (1:02.57) and second in the 200 Breast (2:18.48).
Freshman Maya Lee and senior Emily Ward were also first place finishers, Lee in the 200 Fly (2:04.01) and Ward in the 100 Free (51.79). Ward also took a second-place win in the 200 Free with a time of 1:50.63.
Gillian Flath, Molly McCance, Bryn McGowan, Elena England, and Jaqueline Harris each contributed second place wins. Tara Middleton, Rachel Forbes, Dora Seggelke, and Brittney Straw rounded out the Gaucho women with third place victories.
The Gauchos have a two-week break from competition before returning to action at the A3 Invitational at East Los Angeles College over the weekend of Friday, Nov. 22 to Sunday, Nov. 24.

Advances suggest organs made from patients' own cells may one day be a reality.
What if dying patients waiting for an organ transplant could receive a custom, lab-grown replacement rather than waiting for a donor organ?
To some, this may sound like science fiction -- and in many ways, it still is. But the advances in the field of regenerative medicine that made headlines last week suggest such lab-grown organs may become reality in the future.
One of these advances was Swedish scientists' creation of a custom vein that has carried blood from a little girl's intestines to her liver for a year and counting. In another, a group in Japan successfully implanted lab-grown livers made from human cells into mice -- organs that metabolized drugs the way they would in a human.
And these developments may be just the tip of the iceberg. From skin to blood vessels to solid organs, work is underway to offer more options for patients with faulty or damaged body parts.
Dr. Anthony Atala, director of the Wake Forest Institute for Regenerative Medicine in Winston-Salem, N.C., was part of the first group in the world to successfully implant a lab-grown organ into the human body. Atala's interest in the field began when he was training to become a urologist and saw numerous children who had undergone bladder replacement surgery. Many of them were experiencing leaks, and some even suffered ruptures of their new bladders.
"That's when I really thought, 'Why not try to grow these children new bladders from their own cells?'" Atala said.
Atala collected a small number of cells -- about the size of half a postage stamp -- from the original, inadequate bladders of children with spinal cord birth defects. Each child's own cells were multiplied in the lab and then placed on a biodegradable scaffolding. In seven weeks, the cells had grown to fill in the scaffold, creating a new bladder. The procedure was first performed in 1998, and by 2006 they had seen long-term success of the organs.
"I still hear from some of them occasionally," Atala said. "They are still walking around with their engineered bladders, and they are happy with them."
Since this first foray into growing organs, Atala has been one of the many doctors on the forefront of what some say could one day be a new paradigm in medicine -- growing spare parts from a patient's own cells.
Atala currently heads up more than 300 researchers in the Wake Forest University lab who are working on growing more than 30 different organs and body tissues.
In one trial for the U.S. Armed Forces, his team is collecting healthy skin cells from injured soldiers, processing them, and then spraying them onto battle wounds as a tailored treatment for healing. For deeper wounds, they are in the process of developing an ink jet printer that scans a wound and creates a custom map of the defect.
"After the scan, the printer can go back and print multiple layers of cells right over the wound," Atala said.
The idea of using a patient's own cells rather than relying on those of a donor is important because it eliminates the need to find a "match." For any transplant procedure there is a concern that tissues from a donor will be rejected by a recipient's body.
Even though doctors carefully analyze specimens under a microscope to find the most compatible individuals, and even despite the powerful drugs used to prevent the recipient's immune system from attacking the new body part, the risk of rejection still causes doctors to hold their breath in the days following a transplant.
Custom-made organs from a patient's own tissues would solve this problem, obviating the need for strong immune-suppressing medications that come with significant side effects.
The other potential benefit lies in availability. Growing a replacement tissue or organ in the lab eliminates the dependence on waiting for a donor to die. These parts cannot be grown overnight, but with people currently waiting months to years for donor organs, there might be a point at which the amount of time taken to grow a replacement is shorter than the wait for a donated one.
It's a bright future. But many hurdles remain before widespread use becomes a reality. Both time and cost are obstacles to replacing even the simplest structures, doctors said.
"The organization and resources required for the process are significant and would severely limit the applicability of the treatment strategy to large groups of patients," said Dr. William Marston, professor and chief in the division of vascular surgery at University of North Carolina Hospitals in Chapel Hill.
And so far, the proof that these creations are worth all the effort is a lacking. Experts say more studies comparing the regenerated parts to donor and artificial parts are needed in order to show they are at least as good -- better, ideally -- than the current treatments.
But even before we get this far, the tools need to catch up to the vision. And for now at least, the technology to create some of the most in-demand organs for human use is simply not yet there.
Currently, scientists are able to create some types of tissues for human transplant use. The simplest kind are flat, simple structures such as skin that consist of one cell type. Tubular structures that involve two cell types, such as blood vessels, are also possible using current techniques and technology. Most recently, scientists have been able to create hollow organs, like the stomach and bladder, that only require two cell types but have a more complex shape.
What still lies out of reach are the solid organs, such as the liver or kidneys.
"They require so many more cells per centimeter," said Atala. "And they need more blood vessels to keep the cells alive."
Despite the challenges, Atala has had some early success with the creation of solid organs. In 2010, his group was the first in the world to create a functioning liver from human cells.
So far, these livers have only been tested in an artificial lab setting. They would still need to be studied in animal models before they could ever be considered for humans. Also, Atala's livers weigh only one-fifth of an ounce. They would need to reach at least one pound to have a chance of sustaining human life -- "not an easy task," according to Atala.
But his group is not alone. Researchers around the world are working feverishly towards making lab-grown solid organs a possibility. The Boston University Center for Regenerative Medicine successfully created rat lungs in 2010. They were even able to transplant the lungs into live rats and sustain life for about six hours.
While the widespread use of regenerated body parts may still be years away, these small successes in lab and animal studies leave scientists hopeful that solid organ regeneration may someday be a reality.
"I think the field will evolve one area at a time," Atala said. "We just keep going and advancing."

He works at Universal Pictures, where he becomes screen partners with, and then the husband of, star Gloria Vance.
When World War Two breaks out, Tony tries to enlist but is refused because of his knee. Tony finds himself organising the Hollywood Victory Committee (H.V.C.), a consortium of motion picture, theatrical and radio personalities dedicated to help the war effort.
He puts on a show that includes performances from Donald O'Connor and Jeannette MacDonald.
Tony and Gloria have a big fight and she doesn't tell him that she's fallen pregnant. Tony organizes another show, where Orson Welles performs magic tricks including sawing Marlene Dietrich in half.
Raft goes overseas. Tony is killed during an attack by a Japanese submarine. Gloria takes Tony's place entertaining the troops.

The film was announced in June 1943. It was produced by Charles K. Feldman and was inspired by the success of Stage Door Canteen at Warner Bros. The original title was Three Cheers for the Boys.[4] George Raft signed in July 1943.[5]
The cast featured several Universal contract stars, including Donald O'Connor and Peggy Ryan, as well as some actors who had just recently made films for Universal, such as Raft and Marlene Dietrich.
The film was shot at the Naval Training Center San Diego.[1]
It was WC Fields' first movie since 1941. He performs an old pool playing job he first developed in vaudeville in 1903.[6]
The movie features a speech at the end about "soldiers in greasepaint", a tribute to those who entertained the troops during World War Two. It features an "honor roll" which lists those entertainers who died in the war, including Carole Lombard, Leslie Howard, Roy Rognan, Tamara, Charles King and Bob Ripa.
The New York Times called a "sentimental tribute... cheap screen entertainment - and hardly a tribute to the players it presents."[7]

This cross-sectional study was planned in order to evaluate also to self efficacy levels of the patients with essential hypertension and the affecting factors and determine the nursing care requirements which will be a guide in practice. This study was carried out with 94 patients with essential-hypertension suitable for sampling criterias who consulted to Trakya University Medical Faculty Training and Research Hospital Department of Internal Diseases Outpatient Clinic of Hypertension between 2009 September and 2011 March. Data were collected by using patient information form which includes personal and essential hypertension ?related characteristics and Self-Efficacy Scale for Adherence/Adaptation to Medical Treatment. Data were analysed by percentage, mean, student t test, one way ANOVA test and Spearman correlation analysis was used to examine the relations between variables. P<0.05 value was consiedered as statistically significant. The mean age of the patients with essential hypertension was 57.7±10.2. It was determined that %53.2 of the study group was female, %94.7 was married, %58.7 had primary school or lower graduates. It was determined that the adherence to medication/Adaptation self-efficacy mean point of the study group was 71.9±3.6. The adherence to medication/ Adaptation self-efficacy mean point of the study group is on a good level. It was determined that there is no significant statistical difference between personal characteristics of the hypertensive patients and adherence to medication/self-efficacy It was found out that Adherence/Adaptation and Self- Efficacy levels of the patients with essential-hypertension who complied with adapted their diet are higher compared to the patients who were did not comply with their diet. Nurses should take into consideration the personal and essential hypertension-related characteristics of the patients with essential hypertension affecting the levels of adherence to medication/self-efficacy levels of the patients with essential hypertension while planning and implementing nursing care plans that would support and improve self efficacy. Key Words: Essential hypertension, adherence to medication, adaptation, self-efficacy, nursing care.
