Whether you are missing a few teeth or have no natural teeth left, dentures can do a lot for you. They can restore your full smile and improve speech, as well as tooth functioning so that you can eat normally once again. Dentures also support sagging facial muscles to lift the cheeks back up and restore a more youthful appearance. Dr. David Wadas can fit you for dentures in Portage, MI.
There are several benefits to getting dentures. They replace missing teeth and give you a complete smile. They also function like natural teeth so you can bite, chew and eat with ease again. Dentures can also improve speech as missing teeth can adversely affect it by altering tongue placement when speaking. Dentures also support the facial muscles and give you a more youthful appearance. When multiple teeth are missing, there is less support for the facial muscles. Consequently, the cheeks begin drooping and sagging. Dentures can correct this.
There are several types of dentures available. The two main types are partial and full, but there are multiple types of partial and full dentures. Partial dentures are used by patients who still have some natural teeth remaining. The dentures still contain replacement teeth, but spaces are created where the existing teeth are positioned. Patients with partial dentures have a mix of natural and artificial teeth. A partial denture can be worn on the top or bottom row of teeth, or both, if needed.
Full dentures are also called complete dentures. They are used by patients with no natural teeth left. A full denture contains a complete row of replacement teeth. As with partial dentures, full dentures can be worn along the top or bottom row of teeth or both. In some cases, a patient might need a partial denture on the top or bottom row and a full denture along the other row. Your dentist can tell you which type of dentures you'll need in Portage.
Dentures can replace missing teeth but serve other important functions as well. Dentures improve both tooth functioning and speech and combat sagging by providing support for the facial muscles. To find out what dentures can do for you, schedule an appointment with Dr. Wadas, your dentist for dentures in Portage, MI, by calling (269) 323-1802.

Q: Process for migrating Dropbox to SpiderOak I want to move my data from dropbox to SpiderOak. I have 3 computers running dropbox. But I have a poor WAN connection with very limited upload bandwidth.
So I thought I do as first step install the dropbox client on my server on the internet an download there my data from dropbox. Then after this I upload/backup my data from this server with a broadband connection to SpiderOak. After the backup is completed I setup the sync between my 3 computers so that they will not have to upload the data again.
Will this process work so that I don't have to upload my data again over my WAN connection at home?

Ayurveda is the art of healthy living that enables you to create harmony in everyday life by applying self- knowledge and self-care. The word, Ayurveda, has its roots in the ancient Indian language of Sanskrit, and literally means "knowledge of life". Inherent in Ayurvedic principles is the concept that you are capable of taking charge of your own life and healing. Ayurveda may come from ancient texts, but these principles are just as applicable today in every society, as they were when they were originally recorded in India. Ayurvedic living occurs when you recognize your basic nature and live according to this true self.
"Ayurveda is the ancient Indian system of preventive and curative health care. According to this system, bodily health is determined by three biological principles, called 'doshas': 'Vata' (air), which regulates movement; 'Pitta' (fire), which regulates metabolism; and 'Kapha' (water), which regulates structure. "Ayur" means life and "Ved" means knowledge (knowledge of life). This holistic science, practiced for more than 5000 years is the knowledge of complete Balance of the Body, Mind and Spirit, including the emotions on all levels. It includes in its consideration, longevity, rejuvenation and self-realization therapies through herbs, diet, exercise, yoga, massage, aromas, 'tantras', 'mantras' and meditation. It forms an approach to physical health, mental clarity and spiritual fulfillment, that goes back to the 'rishis' or sages of ancient India, which was then codified in the Vedas, the sacred texts of Hinduism.
Ayurveda as a way of life prescribes remedies for many of the modern-day ailments. Daily life regimen as per Ayureveda are: keen observation of one's own body, proper exercises, seasonal food habits, control of senses, the art of living, patience, perception of all creatures and constant interaction with God and the people around. As a System of Medicine, Ayurveda eliminates the fundamental causes that produce diseases, rather than treating the outward symptoms. Thus Ayurveda ensures long-lasting health and happiness with out leaving behind any harmful side effects.

WHAT: With research showing uncorrected vision problems linked to juvenile delinquency and behavior problems, Essilor Vision Foundation has reached out to help local teens by providing free eye exams and eyeglasses to youth involved with the Dallas County Juvenile Department. This Monday and Tuesday (Aug. 31 and Sept. 1), Essilor Vision Foundation will be onsite at the Henry Wade Juvenile Justice Center where they'll conduct vision screenings and eye exams on approximately 300 incarcerated youth.
As part of the Kids Vision for Life program, Essilor Vision Foundation has partnered with the Lions Sight and Tissue Foundation and the Dallas County Juvenile Department to also conduct onsite vision screenings and eye exams on approximately 600 incarcerated and at-risk teens at Youth Village, Medlock Center, and the Juvenile Justice Alternative Education Program. Altogether, Essilor Vision Foundation expects to provide approximately free eyeglasses -- equipped with top-quality polycarbonate lenses in popular frames -- to approximately 300 teens before the end of September.
Dallas County Commissioners John Wiley Price and Maurine Dickey recently passed a resolution honoring Essilor Vision Foundation for their work with troubled teens and Dallas County youth.
WHO: Available for interview both days will be Dr. Anthony Borgognoni, clinical advisor for the Essilor Vision Foundation, who works regularly with local prison populations. "Dr. B," who is available for interviews, sees similar vision problems in adult offenders.
Mike Griffiths, Juvenile Services Director for the Dallas County Juvenile Department, and representatives of the Juvenile Court and Commissioners Court will be available at selected times Monday for interviews.
Studies show that up to 74% of juvenile offenders may have vision problems!
Approximately 80% of what a child learns is acquired through their eyes. Studies show that children with uncorrected vision are more likely to drop out of school and may go on to face lifelong struggles with literacy, low self-esteem, unemployment, poverty and crime. The surprising reality is that one in four American children has a vision problem – and the number climbs as high as 50% in some inner-city communities – yet research suggests 90% of those children are not wearing glasses today.
LOGISTICS: Please note the youth are minors, and their privacy must be protected. Media may only videotape or shoot photographs of their hands or below the waist, or when optical equipment covers their faces and obscures their features so they are unrecognizable.
Essilor is the leading manufacturer of optical lenses in the United States and is the market leader in progressive, high-index and anti-reflective coated lenses. A pioneer in the development and production of ophthalmic lenses, Essilor employs more than 8,500 people throughout North America. Essilor manufactures optical lenses under the Varilux(r), Crizal(r), DEFINITY(r), Thin&Lite(r), and other Essilor brand names. Essilor Laboratories of America (ELOA) is the largest, and most trusted, optical lab network in the U.S. and offers a wide choice of services and lens brands, including Essilor premium lenses, to eye care professionals across the nation. Essilor of America, Inc. (Essilor) is a subsidiary of Paris-based Essilor International, S.A., a publicly held company traded on the Euronext Paris stock exchange (Reuters: ESSI.PA).

The small American town of First Blood makes a critical mistake: insulating itself from the realities of Vietnam. Veteran John Rambo crosses the town border, but is forced out when a local sheriff considers him a vagrant. Our soldiers lost the war. There's no chance this town will accept that truth.
First Blood covers the anxiety of losing a war. It's an unfamiliar feeling in a country primed by militaristic exceptionalism. Rambo (Sylvester Stallone) is the victim of that ideal; the police serve as a totalitarian military, keeping people safe from "outsiders." When the defiant lone soldier doesn't follow orders, sheriff Brian Dennehy doesn't stop – he starts a war. He sends troopers into losing conditions without the sense to admit defeat. Vietnam's realities impact the town in a most direct way.
As a piece of post-Vietnam cinema, First Blood deals with the adverse effects of PTSD, honest in a sense, if extreme for the sake of action. First Blood's greatest attribute is taking a monster movie formula and giving it legitimacy. Rambo (the monster) hides in wait for his prey, setting traps and wrecking the town while local officials fail in defeating the beast. Predator took the formula, even the Vietnam theme, and made the same movie five years later, albeit with more muscle.
To note, First Blood poses an imperfect thesis. As much as the movie adaptation of David Morrell's novel winds through a story of post-war effects, it's a super soldier's story. That's encapsulated by what the Rambo sequels and cartoon spin-offs became.
Much as Rambo suffers and endures a gut-wrenching emotional breakdown, he's also a macho, masculine Green Beret. He withstood torture, knows survivalist techniques, and fights against those on a government payroll. By the end, Rambo hoists up a four foot machine gun, wraps himself in a bullet belt, and begins setting off explosions. It's Hollywood excitement, butting against the previously somber, desperate tone established earlier. Picture the character of Rambo, and it's an image of these final scenes, not those in which he's beaten by police or fending for himself in a forest.
That last act's boisterous gunplay is a mistake, corrupting the idea of what PTSD is, or simply selling the thrill of watching bullets shatter glass. First Blood, like Apocalypse Now, wants to teardown Vietnam. In Rambo's case, it's through the eyes of a single soldier, seeking any connection to his homeland. With Jerry Goldsmith's somber horned score, First Blood becomes a morose reflection on the mental drain of warfare, not a fixation on gore or success. In that, it's a unique exploration of what happens when a country addicts itself to combat. The ending then, that's what happens when western audiences need their fix.
Lionsgate debuts First Blood on UHD with a new 4K master. The initial impressions stand out. With a pinprick-like grain structure, the resolution as Rambo walks down the hill is substantial. The texture of wooden barns, Rambo's uniform, the grass, and the water all display exquisite definition. Forest scenes do too. Rock faces and moss cover much of the screen with textural qualities. All of the trees show intense sharpness.
If something goes wrong, it's with the encode and only slightly. Some scenes buzz with light artifacting, enough to swipe detail from the screen. Early shots of Dennehy speaking to Rambo from the car appear digitally fuzzy, not just from the source. Inside the police station, solid colored walls cause issues. Oddly, First Blood holds up fine when amid more complex scenery.
Suitably aged, the color palette exhibits peak density. All of the greens in the forest look splendid. Police cars show a dominant blue, with their lights equally rich. Flesh tones maintain consistency.
Complaints then will concern the HDR pass, or rather the apparent lack of one. Rarely, if ever, does First Blood utilize expanded range. In terms of depth, there's little to go around. Black levels never reach black, instead hovering around a murky gray. That's outright awful when Rambo waits inside the mine.
And highlights barely flutter. Although explosions manage to peak, the rest minimizes intensity. As Rambo rampages through town at night, all of the signage and storefronts die out with minimal brightness. It's not only that First Blood lacks HDR-level contrast so much as it lacks much contrast at all. Muddy and murky is fine to an extent. This goes a tier beyond.
Originally released in a Dolby stereo four-channel mix, the choice here is DTS-HD 5.1. It's excessive. Most of the surround effects, especially the bullets traveling through the soundstage, sound wholly artificial. Their tinny nature is only exaggerated when pushed through more channels. Cars and helicopters do maneuver between speakers naturally however.
Goldsmith's score lacks dynamics and flutters a bit at its treble-filled peak. Low-end support is cleaner and richer. The latter does not go for the action. Explosions rumble, but do so with a loose, strained effect. It's an effect that sounds audibly fake and forced, out of place.
The UHD contains two commentaries, one with Stallone, the other with author David Morrell. Everything else is on the Blu-ray, including a new featurette called Rambo Takes the '80s, a 17-minute retrospective that covers the origins of the project. Note this is part one. The other movies in the series hold the other pieces. A look at the restoration process arguably belongs more on the UHD as to show the expanded color, but it's only on the Blu-ray.
A dated making-of runs 22-minutes, fine if this is your first run through First Blood. An alternate ending and outtake follow, with two featurettes focused on real troops following. There's a workout to get you into Rambo-shape that finishes things off.
First Blood is a unique take on the American perspective on the Vietnam war, but does crumble its allegory in the last act.

Cloud-native applications need a unified continuous security approach
Cloud-native has arrived and now, it's taking over. By 2021, 92% of companies will go cloud-native. It's faster, it's more efficient, more scalable, and more flexible. But is it more secure?
As businesses integrate cloud-native technologies, such as Kubernetes, across their clouds, the complexity and distributed nature of these platforms increasingly require companies to rethink their approach not only to Dev and Ops, but also, security.
The primary cloud platforms – AWS, Azure and Google Cloud, each offer various security features, however, their flexibility differs from one platform to the next. And what happens when a company deploys multiple Kubernetes clusters across multiple platforms simultaneously, as is often the case?
Build fast – deploy fast sounds familiar? Well, think again. To keep pace with the cloud-everything motion, Dev. teams are now deploying code on a daily basis and sometimes even multiple times a day. Additionally, cloud-native has given rise to a new software supply chain, one that embraces open source and 3rd-party code in an effort to accelerate development cycles.
As a result, companies are integrating code into their applications that they did not necessarily create and which may introduce unanticipated and unknown threats or vulnerabilities. This dynamic pace, combined with complexity, creates a new risk, which if not properly identified and managed, can expose companies to substantial financial and reputational damage.
Pinpointing, preventing and mitigating vulnerabilities and threats in this new accelerated cloud-native development model and infrastructure requires a new approach to security, one that is uniform across platforms and continuous across the software development lifecycle (SDLC). It requires a shared security responsibility & ownership, as well as shared process and tools, to keep cloud-native deployments in general, and infrastructure, applications and data specifically, safe.
The evolution of Dev, Sec and Ops and the rise of continuous security
Traditionally, Development built the application, Operations managed the application and Security protected the application. Each team had a role and a place in the process, the handoffs were clear and the roles distinct. But that world doesn't exist anymore.
As software has evolved from tightly controlled monoliths, centrally managed and owned, to rapidly evolving, distributed clusters of microservices managed by platforms like Kubernetes, the supporting roles too have evolved requiring these once independent teams to think and work collaboratively and collectively.
The introduction of containers, microservices, open source and 3rd-party code to applications on accelerated development and delivery schedules are forcing these teams to share the responsibility of authoring and enforcing security policies from the start. Developers need to whitelist their application's requirements and specify the methods of enforcement of distributed security policies that apply to its own, 3rd-party code and its supporting services.
By applying security at the code, container and microservices level early in the development cycle, enterprises incorporate security into their applications in a way that is practical, that scales and grows with the application, and doesn't slow development, application or business agility. Operations then must monitor the behavior of the microservices for anomalous behavior and evaluate behavioral outliers to detect vulnerabilities and isolate security risks before they threaten the performance and integrity of the application or its data.
This collaboration by Dev, Sec and Ops protects cloud-native applications throughout the entire application life cycle, creating a continuous process for the definition and enforcement of uniform security policies across all core application components – the software supply chain, the services mesh (e.g., Istio, AWS AppMesh), and the underlying container-based infrastructure (e.g., Kubernetes). This, in return, enables engineering teams to not only eliminate security vulnerabilities before causing costly re-engineering, rollbacks or patches, but to also add the capability to monitor and manage all security layers of their growing cloud-native applications.
Implementing a continuous and uniform approach to security
Once committed to cloud-native technologies and the realization that security must be applied throughout the Development pipeline not only at the end, DevSecOps teams need uniform cross-platform security controls that should start as early as possible. As a starting point, DevSecOps teams should implement the best practices recommended by the leader in container orchestration, Kubernetes, and mesh contenders Istio and AWS Service Mesh. These best practices provide a foundation upon which DevSecOps can build a more expansive security program.
Ongoing DevSecOps teams can proactively take these steps to ensure security:
From the start: Spin up a Kubernetes cluster with the latest patches and recommended configurations. Teams should then deploy the cluster and tune the access controls next.
Scan for vulnerabilities: Assess what is running and its level of integrity and hygiene. Look for embedded secrets or secrets wired to the wrong locations (locations are one way to determine how much to trust a container). Look for excessive privileges that would enable a bad actor to read K8s secrets as root, which could take over the entire environment.
Master your cluster: Work with your Sec and Ops teams to design and deploy uniform security policies across all development stages. Pinpoint common misconfigurations security best practices, to avoid runtime security drifts.
Don't compromise on agility: Evaluate the appropriate amount of hardening based on the workload and the speed and agility called for based on the criticality of your application or the specific security and governance rules followed by your company.
While the perimeter of defense for cloud-native applications has grown harder to define in recent years, thoughtful evaluation of the development environment, communication privileges of containers, and the application of security policies early in the development process will help DevSecOps teams secure applications and mitigate threats.
Continuous security for cloud-native: The time is now
The dynamics of software development have changed substantially with the advent of cloud-native and show no signs of slowing down. As a result, the inherent risks for cloud-native application platforms such as Kubernetes and Istio are growing too as they increasingly become targets for sophisticated hackers.
By delivering security from the start, uniformly and continuously, enterprises will position themselves to keep pace with the speed of innovation without compromising their networks, applications or data. The automation, technologies and processes exist, it's time for DevSecOps teams to embrace them.
Insider threats are security's new reality: Prevention solutions aren't working

It is suggested for you to construct a window in the border of the barn to make an illusion of a larger vision.


This means that for all businesses that have an annual taxable turnover of over £85,000, i.e. taxable supplies that are either standard, reduced rate or zero-rated, they will be compelled to keep their records digitally unless they are deferred for six months or exempt. They will also have to file their VAT returns using MTD-compatible software. Those businesses that have been part of the MTD pilot are already mandated to use the service from April 2019.
It is important to realise that VAT registered businesses are not automatically signed up to MTD and must, therefore, ensure that they enrol by visiting Sign up for MTD. HMRC will send a confirmation e-mail within 72 hours of signing up.
HMRC says that there are MTD-compatible solutions available at little or no cost for most businesses, with 11 products available for free with varying conditions of use. Read the small print as it is very rate to get something for nothing nowadays!
Those organisations with more complex VAT affairs - for example, trusts, not for profit organisations, local authorities - are not required to join in until 1st October 2019. HMRC has written to all those that fall into this category. For those organisations that have received such a letter, it is vital that they keep this in a safe place because it represents the legal permission for deferral. For those falling in this category who have yet to receive a letter, then they should contact the VAT helpline otherwise they will have to comply with MTD from April.
HMRC has confirmed that there will be a 'soft landing period' of one year to allow businesses time to implement digital links between all parts of their MTD-compatible software. During this period, where such a link has not been established between software programs, HMRC will accept the use of cut and paste as being a digital link.
Hopefully, most businesses will have heard about MTD by now, even if they don't fully understand the implications. The time to get fully acquainted with the requirements is now so that the business can gear up and owners will not be left panicking.


School begins at 8.45am and all pupils are expected to be in school for registration at this time. Any child arriving after 8.50am will have a late mark (L) recorded on the register. Children arriving after 9.20am will have an unauthorised late mark (U) recorded. We ask Parents/Carer to accompany late children to the office where a reason for lateness and the number of minutes late, will be recorded on to their child's attendance file.
If you are experiencing difficulties in getting your child to school please talk to your child's Class Teacher or our Family Support Worker.
*Pupils who are consistently late are disrupting not only their own education but also that of others. Where persistent lateness gives cause for concern further action will be taken.
The Education Act 1996 makes it a criminal offence for a parent to "fail to secure their child's regular attendance at the school". As a result, if a holiday request is made, unless there are exceptional circumstances, the request will not be approved and the child's absence will be marked as "unauthorised".
Any Parents intending on taking their child out of school for a family holiday in term time will need to write a letter to the Principal outlining their reasons and the dates of absence.
*Research shows that children taken out of school may never catch up on work they have missed and that absences can affect a child's test results and their progress at school.
Please try to make any medical appointments outside of school hours. If this is unavoidable then we do ask for your child to attend the morning or afternoon session in school before or after the appointment. Medical appointments will only be authorised if you are able to provide a letter from the hospital/clinic or doctors (appointment card) showing the appointment details.
If your child is medically unfit to attend school we ask Parents/Carers to inform the school by 9am on the first day of absence and everyday thereafter. The School's telephone number is 01270 685666, alternatively you can email the school office or the Family Support Worker: admin@wistastonacademytrust.co.uk / familysupport@wistastonacademytrust.co.uk. Please note we do not accept messages from siblings in school.
* Absences with no reasons will be chased up by a phone call, text or home visit by our Family Support Worker, Tina Brittain.
As you may already know, schools across Crewe have joined forces for a special campaign which encourages children to get to school on time. 'Every minute Counts' launched last year by Crewe Partnership, also aims to build on the town's steadily improving attendance figures over recent years.
Throughout the year Wistaston Academy, will be participating in a variety of new and exciting attendance projects alongside the other primary and secondary schools in Crewe.

The infomercial industry is huge and is worth a staggering $250 billion as of 2015. It all started back in the late 40's and early 50's when major sponsors of serial television programs were soap manufacturers (i.e. Proctor & Gamble, Lever Brothers and Colgate-Palmolive), which is how "soap operas" got their name. There is some controversy although the first infomercial is thought to have been for a blender either made by VitaMix or Waring Blenders and aired in 1949 or 1950. Time limits for commercials were imposed by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) not too long after this which halted the growth of infomercials until 1984 when those limits were removed.

Good day from your friendly Orlando Carpet Cleaners! Sometimes our blogs are about us as a company. The services we provide, the equipment we use and our cleaning methods are things we like to touch on. We also like to provide tips & tricks that may help some of our fantastic customers. Our technicians are trained and IICRC certified, so these guys know what they're doing! When you combine high quality training with an abundance of experience you get a carpet technician with a plethora of methods for attacking all types of spots, spills and stains. So, today I would like to pass along some info that could help in the case of spilled curry. Yep, if you love curry and you've had a spill you know that quick action is the best route.
When you find yourself in a situation involving spilled curry on your carpet, you want to act quickly. The quicker you act, the better the results will be after your cleaning. The most important thing to remember is to dab, not wipe the curry. Again, DO NOT WIPE the curry! Wiping will only work the curry deeper into the fibers of the carpet. Dabbing is the only method that will not make the matter worse. In a bowl you will want to mix dish soap, vinegar and warm water equally. Then get yourself a nice clean rag. Pour some of the mixture on the curry spill, then dab it with the rag. Continue the process for as long as needed. If the spill is large, you may need to use more than one rag.

Prior to the 2003 war in Iraq he headed the UN weapons inspectors who were sent to Iraq to find out if Saddam Hussein's regime had destroyed its weapons of mass destruction. Following the war he has left his position in the United Nations.
Blix's statements about the Iraq WMD program came to contradict the claims of the George W. Bush administration, and attracted a great deal of criticism from supporters of the invasion of Iraq. In an interview on BBC 1 on 8 February 2004, Blix accused the US and British governments of dramatizing the threat of weapons of mass destruction in Iraq, in order to strengthen the case for the 2003 war against the government of Saddam Hussein. Ultimately, no stockpiles of weapons of mass destruction were ever found.
In February 2010, the Government of the United Arab Emirates announced that Dr Blix would head an advisory board for its nuclear power program.

Leading Through Uncertainty: A Look at Health Care Innovation
By natalie.rahnSeptember 6, 2013January 8th, 2022No Comments

With the Affordable Care Act making the health care waters murky, industry leaders are being asked to do something that, if it is not impossible, it is very close. They are being forced to navigate rough waters toward a destination that is uncertain in health care innovation.
"The essential challenge is creating a path forward when many of the new regulations under the Affordable Care Act have not even been written yet," says Allan "Bud" Shivers, the chairman of the board of the Seton Fund and member of the Seton Healthcare Network board of trustees. "You have to anticipate how do you deliver better care and be in the business of making people healthier — keeping them out of the very hospitals that also need to be there for them when they are in need of care."
Part of the Ascension Health Alliance, the nation's largest Catholic health system with 72 hospitals, the Seton Healthcare Network has 12 hospitals and clinics and 12,000 employees.
Shivers says the way forward comes down to five ingredients that executive teams, their board of directors, and stakeholder groups need to align around: leadership transformation, speed of change, education, consolidation, and technology.
The leadership challenge
Shivers said changing the game when all the rules aren't written takes the relationship between the C-suite and boardroom to a new level. It has to move from the traditional advisory role to one that is more hands-on.
In a March 2013 article by The Advisory Board Company, Anthony R. Tersigni, president, and CEO of Ascension, said he is embracing the invaluable role of a new style of hands-on leadership. "The first thing I do [when visiting a health ministry]," Tersigni is quoted as saying, "is to let the CEO know I'm coming. Then, about a half-hour before my appointment, I walk through the hospital and talk to employees, patients…really any people that I come across."
It's that talking that Shivers says is so important. It builds trust between the people in the C-suite and those handling the day-to-day care of the patients. Only when that trust is established can you have conversations that are needed to move the organization forward.
"The conversation is not just about administrative matters and committees," he says. "Sometimes you have to be willing to be the skunk at the garden party and not be willing to go along with the status quo."
As an example, Shivers shared the story of a hospital system building a new medical center in Houston. The CEO so mesmerized the board with his vision and plan that the board failed to do its due diligence. Without any checks in place, project costs spiraled up. The plan was more focused on building the new center, and not on providing efficient and affordable care. Eventually, the board had to let the CEO go. The damage had been done.
And speaking of building hospitals, for about every 1 million people in a population, a Level 1 trauma center is needed. Hospitals cost about $1 million a bed to build and need about $1,000 a bed per night to operate. The ultimate objective of health care is to keep people healthy and in their own homes, yet operating a hospital — or network for that matter — means intensive staffing and finding operational economies of scale. This, Shivers says, is why consolidation is happening.
Technology adoption
"The health care industry is slower than most in its adoption of technology," Shivers says. "It has always just been a volume business. The more patients you get, the more money you can make."
Enter the technology equation, and you have a whole new set of considerations, decisions, and expenses that are new to most leadership circles. Shivers is not referring to only certain medical technologies, but also the vast amount of technology needed to run the operational and administrative aspects of a health care network. One of many examples is electronic medical records, the complexity of new health-related data and records that follow a patient, while following regulations for the safety, security, and use of the records.
There are technologies that can also help the doctor-patient relationship become more efficient and improve patient experience. This future isn't just about the physical nature of visiting a clinic or hospital. We are evolving from a model where patients making a visit was the norm. There are health care options now for remote monitoring, wirelessly connecting the patient with a doctor's office.
$100 Million for better health care education
Shivers says that changing the way health care leaders think and lead actually can start where they are being taught — at an educational level. The Seton Family of Hospitals collaborated with The University of Texas at Austin to create the $100 million Dell Pediatric Institute, a measured step in establishing a state-of-the-art, academic health center, which includes a new medical school. Additionally, Seton entered into a partnership with The University of Texas System Board of Regents and The University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center in Dallas, one of the nation's leading academic medical centers, to increase the amount of medical education and medical research conducted in Central Texas.
Scary but positive change
Shivers has spent 31 years connected to and serving health care. He says the industry faces many other issues it needs to address, such as increasing patient satisfaction and care while also transforming, working through mergers and consolidation, hospitals that are closing as needs are growing, cuts in Medicare, deep changes in Medicaid reimbursements and processes, not to mention emerging advanced health care practices. Still, he sees the industry changes in a positive light. Evolution in health care was needed, and the complexity is leading to innovation and change for the better. It just may mean a few headaches along the way.

He also serves on the board of trustees of the Seton Healthcare Network and the board of the Institute for Rehabilitation and Research.
The Seton Healthcare Family was recognized as the top-ranked health system in Texas by Modern Healthcare magazine and health care data consulting firm Verispan. It was also among the year's Top 100 integrated health care systems in the nation for efficiency and performance.
A not-for-profit organization, the Seton Family is the leading provider of health care services in Central Texas, serving an 11-county population of 1.9 million. The organization operates:
5 major medical centers, including the region's only Level I Trauma Centers for adult and pediatrics and dedicated children's hospital.
Two community hospitals
Three rural hospitals
An inpatient mental health hospital
Several strategically located health facilities that provide rehabilitation and medical care for well patients
Three primary care clinics for the uninsured
As the region's largest community service organization, Seton contributed more than $419 million to care for the poor and community benefit last year.

Steep-turn Stall Causes Viscount Crash
Atlas to Play Major Space Booster Role
Bomarc to Be Combat-ready at Year End
By Russell Hawkes14 min
Aviation Week | May 11 1959
At 2319, April 6, 1958, a Capital Airlines Viscount, N 7437, crashed and burned near Tri-City Airport, Freeland, Mich. All 44 passengers and the three crew members were killed. Capital Airlines Flight 67, a regularly scheduled flight between New York, N. Y., and Chicago, Ill., was making final approach at Freeland by visual reference to the ground when the accident occurred.
San Diego—Convair Atlas intercontinental ballistic missile—designed on concepts considered radical 13 years ago— is nearing operational status and will continue to play a major space booster role for some time to come. These new missile design philosophies introduced by Atlas include:
Los Angeles—USAF's Boeing IM-99A Bomarc interceptor missile will be "on-site" in September and a combat-ready weapon later in the fall. By late 1960, its successor, IM-99B, with doubled range, better performance, much improved guidance and a much longer maintenance cycle, will begin to supersede it.
Military Application of Argus Doubted
Washington—Doubt has been raised as to the military usefulness of effects created by high altitude nuclear blasts such as the three Project Argus explosions over the South Atlantic Ocean last summer. Details of the Argus effects were presented to scientists here last week at the 96th annual meeting of the National Academy of Sciences.

How Soviets May Land Man on Moon
Shortly after the Russians launched their cosmic rocket on Jan. 2, they announced their intention to put a man on the moon and bring him safely back this year. How can they accomplish this, and what are the chances of success? It appears that most of the major technological advances necessary for a manned lunar expedition have already been made.

Sweden Operates Air Base Near Arctic
Lulea, Sweden—Eight months a year, 24 hours a day, the Royal Swedish Air Force fights the winter weather at this base 60 mi. south of the Arctic circle. From October to May, snowplows and snowblowers are on the go around the clock, keeping runways and taxiways cleared, plowing out and smoothing belly-landing strips, opening roads and apron areas.
Airlines List Officers' Salaries, Bonuses
Washington—Following is a list of airline officers' salaries, bonuses and indirect compensations, expenses and stock holdings for the year ending Dec. 31, 1958, as reported to the Civil Aeronautics Board. Eastern Air Lines, Inc.—E. V. Rickenbacker, chairman of the board of directors, general manager and director, $47,396 salary; $1,000 bonus and indirect compensation and 44,307 shares of common stock; T. F. Armstrong, president and director, $34,089 salary, $1,000 bonus and indirect compensation, 10,620 shares of direct common stock and 1,061 common shares in name of others; S. L. Shannon, senior vice president and director, $29,219 salary, $1,000 bonus and indirect compensation and 5,636 shares of common stock; T. E. Creighton, treasurer and director, $17,045 salary, $1,000 bonus and indirect compensation and 5,370 shares of common stock; L. P. Arnold, vice president, $21,915 salary and 4,883 shares of common stock.
Cab Opens Southern Long-haul Hearings
Houston—Latest round in the long and bitter battle over trunk airline routes in the southern tier of states opened here last week when the Civil Aeronautics Board launched its hearings in the Southern Transcontinental Service Case. Airlines and communities asking for new service across the southern tier crowded a spacious hearing room here as the CAB opened hearings in the most important route case now in the mill.
Better Understanding Your editorial of Feb. 16, "Rewards and Responsibility," discusses most seriously airline management-pilot relationships and the responsibilities of both to the public. That you emphasize the latter is not only eminently correct but characteristic of the public spirited attitude you have always shown.

Q: Angular programmatically required validator not working I have got a checkbox which displays some fields and hides some depending on its value (checked or not)
When it changes, I call a method to set validators of the previous fields to not required and I set new displayed validators to required.

onSwitchCheckbox({ checked: isChecked }) {
    // small timeout to give time to DOM to render the fields because they are hidden with *ngIf="isCheckedCheckBox" (isCheckedCheckBox is a global variable)
    setTimeout(() => {
        this.isCheckedCheckBox = isChecked;
        if (isChecked) {
            this.formGroup.controls.fieldB.setValidators([Validators.required]);
            this.formGroup.controls.fieldC.setValidators([Validators.required]);
            this.formGroup.controls.fieldA.clearValidators();
        } else {
            this.formGroup.controls.fieldB.clearValidators();
            this.formGroup.controls.fieldC.clearValidators();
            this.formGroup.controls.fieldA.setValidators([Validators.required]);
        }

        // update fields
        this.formGroup.updateValueAndValidity();
    }, 200);
}

The problem is that the fieldA stays required and the fields B and C never get required no matter if the checkbox is checked or not
What's wrong with my code ?
Thank you very much

A: You need to updateValueAndValidity of the fieldA formControl
Try like this:
this.formGroup.controls.fieldA.clearValidators();
this.formGroup.controls.fieldA.updateValueAndValidity();

Today it seems 100 days is the standard indicator for how a President of the United States is settling into their new job. While my role at TPAS might not have much in common with the Commander in Chief, I thought it time to share with you what I've learnt from my first 100 days working in pensions.
Arriving at TPAS as a 24-year-old graduate, I understood what a pension was and why it's important to have one, but not much beyond. As with many things in life, I only truly became interested in the details when it affected me directly. As part of a generation that is all too familiar with student loans and the need for careful budgeting, I'll admit saving into a pension always seemed like something that was far from a priority. Even the most financially adroit of my friends only have their sights set as far as paying into a help to buy scheme in an effort to get on the property ladder. So when it came to it, I was relieved to find out I was being automatically enrolled into a scheme and excited to learn I was essentially being given 'free money' from a tax perspective.
By automatically enrolling young people into a pension, I feel like the tide of ignorance is beginning to turn. Pensions might not be as 'edgy' as working for a tech start-up that claims to be 'disrupting' the status quo, but at least everyone knows what it entails. At the risk of being mocked by my peers, I would even say pensions are becoming cool. I was recently asked at a party, of all places, about the best way to maximise pension savings through employer contributions. Young people are becoming curious about the tax benefits afforded by pensions.
With 100 days under my belt I may know the difference between a SIPP and a SASS, but as anyone who works in pensions knows there's always more to learn. If you're not fortunate enough to be surrounded by an army of pensions experts, you can call us on 0800 011 3797 or webchat at pensionsadvisoryservice.org.uk instead.

Q: How to update the content of a div after an AJAX call I have a div (
) and I want to put elements inside from the database (the elements are retrieved via AJAX call)
But I need something dynamic since I will be adding content dynamically and apparently Django template tags are not enough.
How can I do something like that from the ajax success function?
index.html:
{% extends 'base_generic.html' %}
{% load static %}
{% block content %}
{% get_current_language as LANGUAGE_CODE %}

                        ... (truncated)

                        {% for o in some_list %}

{{ o.title }}

{{ o.description }}

{{ o.start_date }} - {{ o.end_date }}

                        {% endfor %}

{% endblock %}

views.py
@login_required
def todo_ajax(request):
    response = dict()
    if request.method == 'GET':
        to_do_list = ToDoList.objects.all().filter(user=request.user)
        data = serialize("json", to_do_list)
        return HttpResponse(data, content_type="application/json")
    return HttpResponse('')

models.py
from django.db import models
from django.contrib.auth.models import User

class ToDoList(models.Model):
    title = models.CharField(max_length=60)
    description = models.TextField()
    start_date = models.DateTimeField(null=True)
    end_date = models.DateTimeField(null=True)
    user = models.ForeignKey(
        User,
        null=True,
        blank=True,
        on_delete=models.SET_NULL,
    )

In other words, how can I 'create' this part dynamically when the AJAX function is called:

    {% for o in some_list %}

{{ o.title }}

{{ o.description }}

{{ o.start_date }} - {{ o.end_date }}

    {% endfor %}

A: The dynamic part needs to be done with javascript.
Make a function that can generate cards, and call that after you parse the output as JSON

HKUST(GZ) Campus Buildings Topping Out
The main structures of all buildings of HKUST(GZ) Phase-I were embracing topping out on September 26, after more than 300 days and nights of construction work. This marks that the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (Guangzhou) (HKUST(GZ)), the epitome of Guangdong-Hong Kong collaboration and a world-class institution of higher learning, has made a big step forward towards its official opening target in September 2022.
HKUST(GZ) Phase-I Construction Site
Designed by the internationally renowned architecture firm KPF, the HKUST(GZ) campus is characterized by "smart and green campus", following the overarching style of HKUST and harmonizing with the natural environment nearby. The design of the gateway courtyard on this campus echoes that on the HKUST campus in Clear Water Bay, Hong Kong, with a semi-circular structure surrounding a red sundial sculpture in the center.
Administration Building and Red Sundial
The campus is well connected with the neighborhood thanks to thoughtful layout planning. It is functionally divided into six parts, namely Central Precinct, East Precinct, West Precinct, North Precinct, South-East Precinct, and North-East Precinct. Specifically, the Education & Research Building and Administration Building are located in the Central Precinct, sports venues in the East Precinct, dormitories and high street in the South-East Precinct, and faculty housing in the North Precinct.
Site Plan of HKUST(GZ) Phase I
The library straddles the central canal, connecting the East and West Precincts. The glass wall design makes it possible for people to see laboratories on the two sides from outside, lifting the veil of science. Between the circulation space and the laboratories is an open space to accommodate large equipment and installations. The green-covered roof offers students an ideal place for outdoor activities on bright and clear days. The top of the laboratories section is covered with photovoltaic panels so that solar energy can be put to use on the campus.
Rendering of Library
HKUST(GZ) is adjacent to the Qingsheng Station of Guangzhou-Shenzhen-Hong Kong High-speed Railway, and Sun Hung Kai Qingsheng Hub Complex that integrates a commercial plaza, office buildings and a public transit hub. It is accessible to six rail transit lines including national and intercity railway lines and metro lines, as well as three expressways. A high-speed train trip to Shenzhen takes 21 minutes and that to Hong Kong 35 minutes. It is also just five metro stations away from the Guangzhou Higher Education Mega Center.
The HKUST(GZ) Phase-I project covers an area of about 636,000 square meters. It is expected to be completed in March and delivered in May 2022, ready for the university's official opening in September 2022.

August 25, 2019 4 comments Business, Fleetwood & Me Community, History
Fleetwood is home to Fisherman's Friend, the throat lozenge that's consumed all around the world.
It started out life as a small medicinal product to clear the tubes of fishermen. Now it's a sweet that's exported right around the world.
£30m for Fleetwood from Fisherman's Friend
Fleetwood has a history of philanthropists who've transformed the town. Doreen Lofthouse is certainly one of them.
And according to a story broke in the Sunday Times on 25 August 2019, she has now pledged a whopping great big £30m to fund community projects in her hometown.
The broadsheet reports "Details of the £30m are shown in accounts for the family's foundation.
"Part of the money has been bequeathed in the name of Doreen Lofthouse's late husband Tony, who died at the age of 74 in January last year. The pair served as joint managing directors."
Doreen Lofthouse and family have set aside the sum for "charitable purposes for the benefit of the people of Fleetwood and its environs".
Fleetwood Benefactors
Mrs Lofthouse has already provided substantial sums of money for the benefit of the town. She kick-started the transformation of The Mount and Gardens with funding to restore the gardens.
Significant other amounts have been contributed to many other projects over the years. The popular 'Welcome Home' statue on The Esplanade was funded by the family.
Welcome Home Statue, funded by Fisherman's Friend
In the 1860's James Lofthouse came up with the menthol and eucalyptus mixture for fishermen to take to sea. Liquid in a little glass bottle wasn't very practical, hence the development of the lozenge.
Now 89, Mrs Lofthouse married into the family, and she's the one who famously transformed the small Fleetwood business into the worldwide household name that it is today.
The humble little lozenge is exported into more than 100 countries worldwide, from a factory in Fleetwood employing around 400 people. Sales last year reached £55.8m.
Well done Mrs Lofthouse x
Famous Fleetwood Faces
The people of Fleetwood are a tight knit community. Locals passionately defend their home town. So it was no surprise to see another Fleetwood born and bred star promoting the Fisherman's Friend name.
Alfie Boe's family still live in Fleetwood and he often comes home to visit them. His commercial for the famous lozenge is sure to raise a smile!
Alfie Boe Commercial for Fisherman's Friend
The next clip is even more interesting. In it, Alfie talks about making the commercial and shows you around inside the factory –
Behind the scenes of the Alfie Boe advert for Fisherman's Friend
And finally, for good measure, here's a clip from Discovery channels 'How do they Do It'. (Starts 30s into the clip)

Doreen loft house is I think the only person who constantly supports the town of fleetwood . It is wonderful and I hope she is aware that she is appreciated
Maggie Stone
What a wonderful gesture from Mrs Lofthouse. In such times of greed and avarice it's so refreshing to read of such a generous action. Proof positive that there are STILL good people around. God Bless her.
Tim Amor
Doreen Lofthouse is an exceptional lady. Together with that hard commercial edge that made the Fishermans Friend company universally successful is a heart of gold – and a love of the town of Fleetwood.
I have heard many stories of where Doreen supported organisations – and people – but without the clamour of headlines or publicity. The help given through the Rotary Club would be prime examples.
This latest pledge is an unbelievable vote of confidence for the small port of Fleetwood.
She is a diamond and the most remarkable lady I have ever had the pleasure to meet.
mrs christine goodwin
what a truly amazing amazing lady Doreen is she has been so generous to our town for many years words cannot describe how grateful we should all be for her generosity thankyou so much Doreen god bless you.

In exiting Syria, President Trump got this one right
Posted Wednesday, January 2, 2019 10:11 pm
Pittsburgh Post-Gazette
Much of official Washington, members of Congress and members of the press who regard themselves as wise heads on foreign policy are in a state of apoplexy over President Donald Trump's decision to withdraw U.S. troops from Syria. They make two points: The way he did it was wrong, and the decision itself was wrong — the U.S. needs to stay in Syria.
One can certainly argue about any president's means and methods. And this president relies, to an alarming degree, on his own gut instinct over eminent advice and empirical evidence. But in this case Mr. Trump's instinct was right. It is time to get out of Syria.
One must start with why we got in. We deployed land forces in Syria to neutralize ISIS and, let's be honest, topple a bloody regime there. We have largely succeeded at the first goal and failed abysmally at the second.
So, why would we stay on at this point?
Although the political establishment, left and right, Democratic and Republican, and most of the top military leaders say this is not the time to withdraw, none, none, can tell us when the right time to withdraw is.
There is no right time. Look at Afghanistan.
And, of greater significance, no one can explain the current strategic advantage of U.S. ground troops in Syria. They are not stabilizing the country and they are not leading us to a negotiated peace, which is the only possible way to end the war. The war is at a stalemate and no one can win it militarily.
The rationale for staying is that, without a continuing U.S military presence, ISIS will reconstitute itself, Assad will dig in and the Russians will gain an advantage. All of this is possible, if not probable with U.S. troops on the ground.
Why not negotiate with the Russians and Assad? Evil though their regimes may be, they are an inherent part of the equation, and dealing with evil regimes (Saudi Arabia and China are examples) is the task of U.S. diplomacy.
Outgoing Defense Secretary James Mattis is fond of saying that the military is only the first line of defense. It makes way for diplomacy. We have done, militarily, what we can do in Syria.
ISIS will surely rise again, in all kinds of places. We are not without options — intelligence, special forces, air power — when that happens. They are the same options we would have if we kept troops in Syria.
While national interest (and there is little pure national interest in Syria) should not be the only calculus of U.S. foreign policy, American military involvement has not advanced the cause of human rights in Syria. To the contrary, arguably.
Our initial involvement in Syria, by the Obama administration, was naive and ignored history. We not only underestimated Assad and the complexity of the situation, but we ignored our own past failures. We said we would bring freedom and democracy to Iraq and Afghanistan, as we said, two generations ago, we would bring them to Vietnam. We failed because we did not understand those places or what it would take to accomplish those ends. Only in Japan, after World War II, did we succeed in establishing a new political order and culture of liberty. That had to do not only with the particulars of that society and the preface of total military victory, but a willingness by Japan to tolerate prolonged occupation and governance, and a willingness by the U.S. to sustain it.
Donald Trump ran for president on a promise to end U.S. military adventurism, world policing and nation-building. He meant it. Many Americans who did not agree with Mr. Trump on much else agreed with that. Mr. Trump made this pledge part of his "America First" foreign policy. And whatever else one might think of the president or that policy, he holds fast to the unique notion that the promises he makes as a candidate, he must keep.
Finally, there is the not insignificant matter of the U.S. Constitution. It says that a president must have a declaration of war from the Congress to go to war. But Presidents Bush (II) and Obama ignored this basic norm, which is not only a primary constitutional one, but a sound political one. (Congress passed resolutions approving action in Afghanistan and Iraq, but this fell short of the constitutional standard for a declaration of war).
If we are to send our young people into harm's way and ask them to risk their lives for us, the case for war must be made and won with the American people. That was not done for Iraq, Afghanistan or Syria, just as the Vietnam-era presidents did not do it. Mr. Trump felt that no good case could now be made for a young American to die in Syria. This time his gut was right.

Q: ¿Cómo hago para solucionar "El almacenamiento de configuración phpMyAdmin no está completamente configurado"? Cuando inicio phpmyadmin me sale un error como este:

He intentado solucionarlo dándole click en "Averigüe por qué" y luego le doy donde dice "Cree" pero aún así no se me ha solucionado el problema.

A: Debes editar el fichero config.inc que esta en xampp/phpmyadmin/config.inc
Y añadir las siguientes líneas antes del comentario /* End of servers configuration*/::
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['users'] = 'pma_users';
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['usergroups'] = 'pma_usergroups';
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['navigationhiding'] = 'pma_navigationhiding';
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['savedsearches'] = 'pma_savedsearches';

A: si estás manejando XAMPP (SOLUCIÓN RÁPIDA)
debes primero ir a Cuentas de usuario

y definir una contraseña para todos los usuarios para ello nos vamos a
Editar privilegios > change password
y esto para cada uno de los usuarios
[mucho ojo] > para el usuario pma asígnale todos los privilegios

TE EMPEZARAN A SALIR ERRORES DE AUTENTICACIÓN IGNÓRELOS (SON ERRORES POR QUE NO TE HAS LOGIADO)
Una vez pasas al archivo config.inc.php e configúralo de  la siguiente manera
